In the early morning, Song Ciwan pushed open the door and walked out.
She took her umbrella and walked on the street, the cool air blowing against her face.
The street was already very lively. Some people were sweeping the snow with brooms, and some people were carrying the corpse of the rat demon and rushing towards the demon refining platform.
Song Ciwan walked all the way, listening carefully to all kinds of news.
Rat monsters appeared last night, and their numbers were even more exaggerated than the cockroach monsters the night before.
However, the casualties in the city last night were not as severe as the night before. To sum up, there are several reasons.
First, after experiencing the disaster of the giant cockroach, everyone in the city was alert. The demon refining platform had previously increased the exchange ratio between demon corpses and qi and blood elixirs among practitioners, which further stimulated the enthusiasm of many practitioners for hunting monsters. .
Second, the City God's Temple sold a large number of family-protecting talismans at low prices. Many martial arts practitioners among the people, even if their skills have not reached the Zang-refining stage, can often fight with low-level rat demons for several rounds as long as they have enough strength. round.
Those who are so powerful can even use this to kill demons!
The third is... what the third is is not enough for outsiders to explain. But Song Ciwan thought about it, did the sword shadow of Beichen Sword Immortal in the sky last night play some positive role in this evil disaster?
This world is full of monsters, but there are also masters among humans. Although they may not necessarily bow their heads to care for every mortal, their presence can still be somewhat uplifting.
In short, the entire atmosphere in Suyang City today seems to be exciting and uplifting.
Until Song Ciwan walked into the laundry room and heard the helpers talking numbly: "I went to Lai Mazi Lane last night to poke into the rat's nest. It was such a big death!"
Laimazi Lane is actually a shack area in the south to west corner of the city. It is the most chaotic area in the entire Suyang City. Most of the washroom boys actually come from there. Some have run-down families, some are down on their own, and some are refugees who have fled...
Unfortunate people always have their own misfortunes, and the rat infestation last night was the worst among them.
The handymen asked each other: "So many people have died, so why are you not dead?"
"Hey, who knows? I'm lucky! Anyway, I'm not dead, so aren't you also dead?"
"Yes, I'm not dead. I watched a good show yesterday! Guess what? The Zhou family lives next door to my house. It's the Zhou family who often works with us in the second bathroom. She came to work in the laundry room to save a dowry for her daughter, remember?"
Remember, Song Ciwan also remembers it.
When Song Ciwan was working in the second bathroom, Aunt Zhou was standing next to her.
But later Song Ciwan was assigned to the grass washroom, and he never saw Aunt Zhou again.
The handyman who talked about Aunt Zhou said: "Last night, I lay down in the crack of the wall and saw clearly that a man dressed in a fashionable style came to Zhou's house, claiming to be the flower god of marriage in the Julu Kingdom, and wanted to hire Zhou. My little lady went to be the concubine for their second prince, oh, what a pomp!"
He described the scene at that time with both numbness and excitement, such as the golden mountains and silver seas brought by the Flower God, such as Aunt Zhou's hesitation, such as the excitement and ecstasy of Aunt Zhou's son and daughter-in-law, such as the joyful yearning of the young lady of the Zhou family.
"After all, Aunt Zhou was unwilling to let her daughter go. As a result, the little lady ran to the flower god herself and said she would sacrifice her life to save the second prince!"
"The Flower Goddess carried the young lady of the Zhou family on his back and disappeared in a flash, leaving only carts and carts of gold and silver jewelry in front of the Zhou family. Oh, this is not bad..."
This is really remarkable. Almost everyone's attention is focused on this handyman who talks anecdotes. Everyone is fascinated by the bizarre stories he tells.
There were even some handymen who beat their chests and stamped their feet at that time: "Oh, I regret not having a daughter!"
Others joked: "You can't even get a wife, but you still have a daughter?"
More people burst into laughter. Although life is hard, you might as well have some fun.
The handyman who told the story continued: "Don't envy me for having a daughter. Although all the gold and silver are piled up in front of the Zhou family, it is not necessarily a good thing!"
"At that time, there were countless rats scurrying around. Originally, everyone was hunting rats, but now that we saw the carts and carts of goodies in front of Zhou's house, who would be willing to hunt rats? Everyone. They all went crazy and shouted...hey, grab the gold and grab the silver!"
"There are only two sons and daughters-in-law of the Zhou family, how can they protect so much gold and silver? Not only were the things not protected, this person was also beaten badly."
"Tsk, tsk, it's miserable, it's so miserable. Aunt Zhou was so angry that she almost died on the spot. She fell to the ground and was bitten by a rat again. It looked like she wouldn't survive..."
Unlike in shantytowns, most of the houses have yards. The streets in the shanty towns are narrow and bumpy, and the dilapidated shacks are leaky in all directions. Houses can see each other without walls.
The tragedy of the Zhou family all fell into the eyes of this handyman. After he talked about it, he suddenly sighed.
Just at this moment, the stewards came to call the roll call, and the servant's sigh brought the story to an end.
What the handyman had not finished saying was that after everyone grabbed the gold and silver, everyone suddenly discovered what kind of gold and silver they were grabbing. It’s just red and yellow scraps of paper!
An unfinished story echoes in the minds of the handymen for a long time. It is a rare rich fantasy in their dry lives.
This story also echoed in Song Ciwan's mind, but what frightened her was different from everyone else's.
The Kingdom of Julu, the Flower God, the second prince... and the rat demon's bride. It turns out that it was not just Song Ciwan who encountered the rat demon carrying his bride last night, but also other young ladies in this city!
But Song Ciwan was not fooled, but Aunt Zhou's little daughter was most likely in trouble.
Also, Song Ciwan clearly killed the "Flower God" last night, so why did other "Flower Gods" appear?
So are there a bunch of rat demons pretending to be the "Flower God", or is this "Flower God" not the only one in the Julu Kingdom?
Song Ciwan had no time to think deeply. Soon, her tasks for today were assigned. There are a total of twelve demons she wants to wash today, all of them rat demons!
Most of the rat demons didn't leave behind any scenes of their death, but when the last rat demon was purged, Song Ciwan saw something different.
It wasn't some dark underground, nor did it look like the world of monsters that Song Ciwan imagined might appear.
Instead, there are exquisitely landscaped pavilions and pavilions wandering back and forth among the old-fashioned images. This must be the most profound scene in the mouse demon's memory!
Like the most prosperous Jinxiu Township in the world, there is a soup pool hidden among the flowers and trees, there is a singer named Ling'e wearing a jingle bell, and a bohemian human man walks by shirtless, grabbing the beautiful girl next to him, and having sex in the open air.
The singers screamed and ran away, but a man who looked very handsome and evil raised his hand to suck a beautiful maid. He smashed her head with one palm and sucked out a dragon-like column of blood from his palm!
Song Ciwan's heart was shaken when he saw this, and he could no longer restrain his emotions.
It was also at this moment that the remaining images of the rat demon became turbulent, with the earth shaking and the world crying.
In the chaotic and broken scene, for a moment, Song Ciwan seemed to see a pair of beautiful and evil eyes, penetrating through the barriers of time and space, looking at her as if they were looking through this mortal world!
"Erlang..." Someone was calling softly from behind in the distant space.
All the scenes broke apart at this moment, Song Ciwan's heart beat violently, the true energy in his body surged crazily, and the scales of heaven and earth emerged. A ball of blue-gold color containing shimmering Qi lay weakly on the scale.
[The spies of the masters of transforming gods can be used to sell it for two or three coins. 】
Master of transformation!
not good!
Song Ciwan couldn't care less about who she saw in the air. The moment the scales of heaven and earth appeared, the true energy in her body began to be consumed rapidly and uncontrollably like a flood. .
Song Ciwan has reached the late stage of Qi Transformation. According to conventional statistical methods, she has cultivated for eighty years. The Qi in her body is not said to be extremely rich, but it is definitely not shallow.
But even after eighty years of cultivation, it cannot withstand the consumption of several breaths.
After a while, Song Ciwan's true energy was exhausted, and the essence in his body began to lose.
This process happened so fast that she didn't even have time to react.
Song Ciwan's face began to look miserable, a mouthful of blood welled up from her throat, and she immediately swallowed it forcefully.
In the washroom, no one cared about her strangeness. It was common for people to die in the laundry room. She vomited blood and fell to the ground on the spot, and the handyman next to her could only scream a few times.
So what? Either way, you will die sooner or later.
When no one was paying attention, Song Ciwan quickly covered her mouth with her hands. She took out the strengthening pills from the space of the scale of heaven and earth and swallowed them directly in her mouth.
The Zhuangqi Pills could not replenish Qi as quickly as it was consumed, so Song Ciwan immediately switched to Xingqi Powder.
The Xingqi Powder barely alleviated her predicament. Song Ciwan swallowed it one after another until her meridians stung and all nineteen copies of the Qixing Powder remaining in the scales of heaven and earth were consumed, and the loss of true energy in her body was finally calmed down.
At this time, Song Ciwan was covered in sweat, as if he had been fished out of water, exhausted and embarrassed.
The scales of heaven and earth still appeared in front of her eyes, and Song Ciwan had a clear understanding: her true energy suddenly disappeared just now, in fact, it was precisely because the scales of heaven and earth helped her intercept the "prying eyes of the master of transformation" through the air!
It's just that her own cultivation level is too low and the scale of heaven and earth is limited, so she has no choice but to extract the true energy from her body.
There are still sixteen Zhuangqi pills, but Song Ciwan dare not take any more Zhuangqi pills to restore the Qi in her body. Her meridians were greatly damaged in the violent conflict just now, and now she needs to heal her injuries before she can continue her practice. .
She looked around and saw that no one in the bathroom was paying attention to her. Song Ciwan lowered her head and continued to slowly clean the rat demon while quietly taking another blood pill.
After the Xue Po Pill entered her abdomen, the warm medicinal power spread out and began to repair her damaged body.
This process was firm and slow, and Song Ciwan secretly estimated that the injury might not heal within at least two or three days.
She couldn't help but sigh secretly. At this moment, she was frightened and fearful, so there was no need to say anything.
It turns out that some of the scenes spied during the demon cleansing process may even attract reverse spying from experts!
If the scales of heaven and earth hadn't been so mysterious and intercepted in time, Song Ciwan would have suffered more than just internal injuries at this time.
The consequences are unimaginable!
