The house is bright, the night is getting darker
Zhao Huai was sitting on a chair, while the woman in the green skirt was lying on the ground. At this time, Yan Jing leaned down and tapped the woman in the green skirt with two fingers on her wrist to check her pulse.
"How? Can we save him?" Zhao Huai asked.
"The injury is very serious, the meridians and the body are shattered. It can be saved, but the evil spirit in the body is difficult to remove. It seems that this woman has just experienced a fierce battle."
Yan Jing raised his head and said seriously, then took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, and put it into the bloodless lips of the woman in the green skirt.
Use your true energy to refine the pills.
A look of pain appeared on the pale cheek of the woman in the green skirt, and there were some beads of sweat on her forehead. After a quarter of an hour, her complexion gradually turned red.
After doing this, Yan Jing turned around, looked at Zhao Huai, and asked:
"This woman's meridians are so solid that she doesn't look like she is in the Qi-training realm. She should be a foundation-building monk. How did you discover her?"
Zhao Huai answered honestly: "Just now I was dealing with the demon fox's puppet, but suddenly there were two bright lights confronting each other in the sky, and then she fell from the sky."
"She is the disciple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect that I told you about."
"A disciple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect?"
Yan Jing quickly remembered the guest mentioned by Zhao Huai before.
Strangely enough, he turned out to be a disciple of the sect.
"But a disciple of Wangxian Sect?"
Li Chong, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but ask.
"Sir, why do you say this?" Zhao Huai tilted his head and asked.
Li Chong waved his hand and said, "Don't call me sir. Firstly, I failed to save my son's life. Secondly, I failed to deal with the demon issue. I really can't afford it."
Li Chong stood up from the bed, thought for a while, and said slowly: "As early as three days ago, Wangxian Sect said that it would send disciples down the mountain. The cause was naturally the recent demon incident in Jingyang Town, and it was indeed discovered near Jinzhou recently. A lot of monsters.”
"But why is there no news at all?"
Li Chong sighed and said: "In order not to cause panic among the people, the news was naturally blocked. It was enough for the sect to take action. But who would have thought that now we have encountered trouble that even the sect disciples have not solved."
"On the contrary, your Excellency has a high level of cultivation and is our savior. Please accept my respect."
Li Chong was telling the truth. If it weren't for Zhao Huai, he would probably have to tell the truth directly today.
Yan Jing and Zhao Huai looked at each other and couldn't help but smile when they saw the helpless look in each other's eyes.
"The people outside the house are almost awake. Prefect Li can let them report to the sect. The monsters should not dare to attack in a short time." Zhao Huai reminded.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
Li Chong nodded after hearing this and walked out of the house.
...
After a while.
"cough..."
There was a slight cough.
The woman in the green skirt opened her eyes. She felt weak all over, her meridians were cramped, her muscles were sore, and she was indescribably uncomfortable. She felt as if she was lying on a soft blanket, surrounded by a warm fire. , keeping her warm.
The dress on her body was in tatters, with no piece intact, so the collar was also cold. Fortunately, there was a blanket covering her chest.
Soon, she suddenly remembered that she still had a mission to complete, but the sword she was holding tightly in her hand was gone.
His eyes flashed with boiling murderous intent, and he stood up, only to see two people sitting in front of him.
Directly in front of her was a man in a white robe, who looked very familiar, was very handsome, and had skin as good as that of a woman.
Before I had time to think about it, my head felt another sharp pain.
"woke up?"
Zhao Huai noticed the movement behind him, turned around and smiled slightly.
The woman in the green skirt showed a wary look, still very confused in her heart. She swallowed her saliva, her dry throat was a little hoarse, and she spoke weakly:
"You are?"
"How long has it been since I last saw you, girl, that you have forgotten me?" Zhao Huai explained with a smile.
"I just saw you falling from the sky and lying on the road. I saw you and sent you to the house. Doctor Yan happened to be there, so I gave you preliminary treatment. You may not have recovered, but at least A life was saved.”
His voice was calm and gentle, as if he were a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
The woman in the green skirt closed her eyes and concentrated. The severe pain was a little better, and her mind became much clearer. Looking at Zhao Huai in front of her, she finally remembered who this person was.
Just because she looked familiar, it turned out to be the pawnshop owner she met during the day. She didn't expect that she would be rescued by him by such a coincidence.
"Thank you so much, shopkeeper and Doctor Yan. What happened today is helpless and I made you both laugh. My name is Lu Qiuwan and I am a disciple of Wangxian Sect. I will definitely repay you in the future."
Lu Qiuwan said with a serious expression.
"Saving lives and healing the wounded is what Yan should do. You're welcome, girl." Yan Jing waved his hands and said with a smile. In fact, he was very happy in his heart. It is not an easy thing to get favors from sect disciples.
"Girl, can you briefly tell me what happened?" Zhao Huai couldn't help but ask. He still had the image of the black mist in his mind. He had a hunch that it should be a very powerful demon.
"Yes, the demonic energy in the girl's body has not been eliminated. It seems that she has encountered some trouble." Yan Jing on the side also agreed.
Lu Qiuwan's beautiful eyes dimmed for a while, and she sighed: "Have you ever heard of Black Wind Cave?"
Zhao Huai and Yan Jing looked at each other and said, "Of course I have heard that the Black Wind Cave was notorious for a while, but didn't it die out ten years ago?"
Lu Qiuwan said calmly: "The demon of running water, the hole made of iron, and another big demon has come to the Black Wind Cave. She calls herself Grandma Black Wind. She is not weak. She has done evil in the surrounding area and harmed many people. I was ordered to go down the mountain. , get rid of this demon."
After hearing this, Zhao Huai pondered for a moment and asked, "Isn't the girl a match for that monster?"
Lu Qiuwan shook her head: "Grandma Heifeng is not my opponent, but I didn't expect that there were other demons in the Black Wind Cave, and there were many powerful ones. They gathered together, and I managed to kill a few of them, but I couldn't He was seriously injured, allowing Grandma Heifeng to escape."
Although her words sounded relaxed, Zhao Huai knew that only those who had experienced it personally could understand the danger involved.
Monsters are difficult to deal with. The fox monsters he met were all very cunning, let alone other monsters.
"Is it that black mist in the sky?" Zhao Huai asked.
"Yes, that is her soul. Her physical body has been destroyed by me. Now she is at the end of her power and can only run away."
Lu Qiuwan added: "I think the Jingyang Town incident is also related to it."
At this point, Zhao Huai expressed his doubts: "Why did Miss Lu say that Jingyang Town suffered heavy casualties? I heard that the people in Jingyang Town are living well."
Lu Qiuwan breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly: "They have all become minions and accomplices of demons."
"A bastard?"
This was the first time Zhao Huai heard this title.
Lu Qiuwan explained: "Monsters are divided into three categories, monsters, ghosts, monsters, and human beings are just the weakest kind. They belong to the category of monsters. On the surface, they look like ordinary people, but their thoughts are no longer their own, and they will obey Doing the devil’s bidding.”
This was the first time that Zhao Huai heard these detailed divisions and separate categories.
"Then who will deal with these demon lackeys?"
Lu Qiuwan looked at him deeply and said, "I hope the Immortal Sect will take action."
