Chapter 173: The Mandrill Demon Is Coming
It feels uncomfortable to be scrutinized by others, let alone being scrutinized by a real person?
What's more, there is something hidden in Chen Youniao?
If the clues are discovered, a series of consequences will inevitably occur.
Chen Youniao suddenly felt a little regretful for not leaving earlier. But that would arouse the suspicion of Qingyun Taoist Priest...
He extended his head and slashed his head, then retracted his head and slashed again.
In fact, there is no need to worry too much now. After all, he is wearing the Xuanwu True Shell, and even if the other party is a real person, he cannot see the mystery.
As expected, the Taoist nun only looked at it, then took up the rainbow light and disappeared into the Xianyi Town.
Chen Youniao was relieved and breathed out: "The real people came so quickly."
Xiao Cheng wiped his sweat: "When the great demon is born, how can the Taoist court restrain it? In this case, Xianyi Town will be safe."
Chen Youniao asked: "Could it be that Brother Xiao wants to stay again?"
"How can it be?"
Xiao Cheng lowered his voice: "The more this happens, the more we should leave as soon as possible. Because once a war starts, there will be countless casualties."
He is a sensible person.
But Chen Youniao knew in his heart that he couldn't fight at all: the great demon Wu Xuan was gone forever, and the demon tribe had also disappeared. Who would the real people of the four great realms start a war with?
They rushed to Xianyi Town, and even though they had great supernatural powers, they were destined to fail.
As one of the parties involved, Chen Youniao inevitably felt guilty, so he had better hurry up and go as far as possible.
Xiao Cheng said with envy: "The real person escapes the light, soars into the clouds and rides on the mist, and travels thousands of miles in a day. How cool and unrestrained!"
It is a magical power that is close to "flying". How can it be cool? However, every time it is used, it consumes a lot of mana and spiritual energy. In today's environment, it is not something that can be used casually.
Chen Youniao coughed dryly: "Brother Xiao, let's leave quickly. Don't delay the trip. It's not going to be smooth on this road."
Hearing this, Xiao Cheng's expression suddenly tightened, and he quickly asked: "Brother Chen, has the demon who attacked Zhou Yahei's group been killed?"
Chen Youniao shook his head: "No, they escaped."
"Escaped?"
At this moment, Xiao Cheng suddenly felt that his whole body was not well.
Chen Youniao looked at him: "What? Are you worried that they will attack us?"
"That's a sure thing! Now that the real person has arrived in Xianyi Town, the mandrill demon is afraid and naturally wants to hide outside. Now that he is hiding, won't he just hide here with us?"
Xiao Cheng felt a headache.
Chen Youniao said: "It's so big outside, you may not be able to hit it."
Xiao Cheng shook his head: "Brother Chen, you may not know about mandrill demons. They have an extremely good sense of smell, especially human breath. They can smell it from a long distance. After leaving Xianyi Town, in the barren mountains and ridges outside, our team may have to be there.
The movement is like fireflies in the dark, unable to escape the pursuit of the mandrill."
"I see."
Chen Youniao looked like he had learned a lot.
Xiao Cheng now has a relatively comprehensive understanding of him: he is young, a Taoist transformer, and indeed a genius. But in terms of basic knowledge, he is surprisingly weak, or he is deficient in his master's skills, or it may be that he is a genius.
A fledgling…
The contradictions therein are puzzling.
It was not easy for Xiao Cheng to get to the bottom of things. It was enough to know this. Anyway, it would not affect Chen Youniao's status as a "master". His cultivation level was real and there was no ambiguity at all.
During this trip home, Xiao Cheng had high hopes for Chen Youniao and counted on this expert to protect him. However, he did not tell Taoist Pan and the others about certain things explicitly so as not to offend Chen Youniao.
Everyone has a personality, let alone an expert?
After many observations, we can conclude that Chen Youniao doesn't like to show off. If Xiao Cheng uses his name to tell others how to do something, it will inevitably be suspected of showing off.
This will ruin the relationship.
Therefore, Xiao Cheng was careful in his words and deeds, and had a sense of what he should say and what he should not say.
Of course, there was something to be said about the Mandrill Demon. He summoned Taoist Pan, explained it, and asked Taoist Pan to pass it on.
It didn't take long for everyone to know about it, and everyone became worried.
The Mandrill Demon is indeed not a big monster and belongs to the ordinary category. However, it is extremely powerful and ferocious in nature. Coupled with its tough body that is invulnerable to swords and guns, it seems difficult to deal with it.
For ordinary people in the world, the Mandrill Demon is simply a nightmare.
Zhou Yahei's group had a large number of people, and there were many good players among them. However, overnight, they were all eaten up, and their organs, brains and marrow were completely eaten away.
In comparison, the overall strength of a team consisting of three carriages and about ten people would only be worse.
Once you encounter two mandrill demons, how can you defeat them?
Soon a team member came to Pan Daoren to ask.
Taoist Pan replied: "Don't be afraid, we have experts in charge."
"Expert? You're talking about him, right?"
The team member pointed at Chen Youniao who was riding ahead.
"Yes, our wait for three days was not in vain."
"Taoist, what is the origin of Chen Fan? Can you tell me, so that I can have some background?"
Pan Daoren licked his beard with his hand and looked enigmatic: "He was invited by Taoist Master Qingyun to be responsible for patrolling the town at night. You know this."
"I know."
The town is so big, and during sensitive periods, the slightest disturbance can spread throughout the country.
Pan Daoren smiled slightly: "It's enough to know this."
The team member was speechless. When he thought about it, it was indeed true. Being able to enter the Taoist court and be invited by Taoist Master Qingyun is enough to prove that Chen Fan's strength is clearly superior to everyone else.
Next to him, Wu Zhi interjected: "Su Ming, I can tell you responsibly that Brother Chen's swordsmanship is extraordinary and he can easily deal with the Mandrill Demon."
Pan Daoren glared at him: "Wu Zhi, you are rude again. Are the injuries on your body healed?"
Wu Zhi scratched his head: "It's almost done."
He received several blows that day, all of which were external injuries and bled a little. After being bandaged and given some medicine, he was fine. However, he still had to recuperate and could not fight with others, so he was currently sitting on the second carriage and not riding a horse by himself.
.
The team member named "Su Ming" couldn't find anything, so he had to ride back to tell his friends. They joined the team and left together, mainly because of Xiao Cheng's reputation and friendship. Until now, they can't look back.
, and seeing that Xiao Cheng and others were all calm, I expected to be confident.
Pan Daoren was still dissatisfied with Wu Zhi: "I'm talking about Wu Zhi, why can't you get rid of this problem? How is Chen Fan's swordsmanship, are we qualified to comment? Not to mention the matter of dealing with the mandrill demon, you are doing everything in front of others, if
If something goes wrong, how can you take responsibility? If Chen Fan finds out, how will he look at you? Huh, what kind of responsibility can you bear?"
Wu Zhi's face turned red and he was speechless. He wanted to pretend in front of Su Ming, to show that he and Chen Youniao were familiar with each other. The problem was, there was no such thing.
Mr. Pan sighed and said no more.
The first section of road leaving Xianyi Town was fairly smooth and the carriage could run smoothly.
Everyone was worried and wanted to run as far away as possible during the day, so they rode faster. At noon, they ate some dry food directly on the horse's back without stopping.
Night was coming unstoppably, twilight was closing, and the surrounding mountains were undulating. They were still among the mountains and fields. Occasionally, there were roars of wild beasts, adding a bit of wildness.
Be particular about where you spend the night. It's on a hillside with a wide field of vision, so you can detect the enemy's situation in time.
The carriages closed up and formed a simple formation, and a large bonfire was lit around them, bringing warmth and the smell of barbecue.
Drinking wine and eating meat, living a life of heroism, I feel like the Mandrill Demon has nothing to worry about.
Except for the two female family members and the wounded Wu Zhi, the others were divided into two groups, one to rest and the other to keep watch overnight.
Chen Youniao was assigned to stay in the second half of the night, but his situation was different from ordinary people. It didn't matter whether he was sleeping or not. He could just close his eyes and rest his mind.
This period of time is suitable for reading and practicing Qigong.
Late at night, new firewood was added to the bonfire and it burned vigorously.
"who is it?"
A sudden shout came from Su Ming, who was also responsible for the vigil in the second half of the night. He was holding a mountain ax and had a vigilant look on his face.
A friend asked: "What's wrong?"
"Just now I saw something strange in the forest on the right. I don't know if it was a human or a beast."
"You are confused, what kind of people can there be in the barren mountains and ridges?"
The partner also nervously grasped the weapon: "How about going and taking a look?"
"No need to go."
