From the first look, one could see the poverty and backwardness of this village.
The houses in the village were all low wooden houses, narrow and dilapidated, and there was no wall outside the village.
There were also some monsters on this Fusang Island that were malicious to humans. Bai Qiuran and the others have encountered some along the way. From this, one can imagine how bad the security problem of this village was.
There seemed to be some cultivated fields near the entrance of the village, but no one was plowing them, and the fields were full of weeds.
“Unexpectedly, there are still such villages.”
Tang Ruowei was a little surprised.
“Are there really people alive in this village?”
“There is still cooking smoke in the village.”
Li Jinyao prompted.
“There are living creatures for sure.”
Bai Qiuran said:
“But it’s hard to tell if it’s not human.”
“Let’s go over and take a look.”
Su Xiangxue suggested.
Among this group of people, even Tang Ruowei, the weakest one, was already a Nascent Soul cultivator. Along the way, the monsters they encountered have basically chickened. Relying on this, the group walked directly to the village.
As a result, at the entrance of the village, they were stopped by a bunch of guys.
These guys were different in appearance and tall and short, but they had one thing in common, that was, they are not human.
“It’s in broad daylight, but there are monsters walking around.”
Li Jinyao frowned and said:
“The orthodoxy of this country is really unstable.”
Su Xiangxue nodded seriously.
Bai Qiuran gently shook his head, thinking that these two girls had been with him for a long time, maybe they had forgotten that they were demonic cultivators, especially Su Xiangxue who was once the queen of the demon world.
Seeing these low-level monsters such as little ghosts and living corpses slowly approaching, Li Jinyao held the double-sword hilt on her waist. She was about to draw her sword to teach these little monsters how to be monsters. Suddenly among the monsters on the opposite side, there was a hoarse voice.
“Wait!”
This voice spoke the local Fusang language, but this language was not difficult for Bai Qiuran and others. They had already learned it when they left the port city, so communication was not a problem.
The monster group separated, then a female monster with an unkempt, plump face came slowly from behind the monster group. Her burly body was about two or three meters tall, covered with a simple coarse cloth. One of her hands held a big knife while the other hand was holding a tortoise shell.
When she came to Bai Qiuran and his group, she looked at them, raised the tortoise shell in her hand, and muttered a few words.
“what?”
Seeing this monster’s behavior, Bai Qiuran was a little surprised.
“Does this Fusang monster also use tortoiseshell fortune-telling?”
The monster suddenly pointed to Tang Ruowei and said:
“Humans, today this lady can let you live, but this little girl must stay and serve as a snack.”
Seeing this big ugly monster trying to walk in the charming style and call herself a lady, Bai Qiuran felt very awkward.
He frowned and thought, and at the same time responded:
“Of course not, how can I give her to you to eat?”
“Why not? As my fortune-telling said, she has a predestined relationship with my stomach.”
The unkempt monster touched her sagging abdomen and said.
She was able to barely use fortune-telling on Tang Ruowei only, and this was only because Tang Ruowei didn’t understand the art of divination. In terms of cultivation level, Tang Ruowei was still above her.
After hearing what the monster said, Bai Qiuran frowned. How could this monster behave like a fake monk and hypocrite?
He was too lazy to talk nonsense with this monster, gave Li Jinyao a wink, and asked her to do it.
“Wait a minute!”
Seeing Li Jinyao drawing his sword, the monster shouted:
“Is it worth fighting just for such a female whose back and chest are indifferent?”
Tang Ruowei was annoyed when she heard that, she tried hard to push the cushion on her chest. But when she was about to reply, Bai Qiuran seemed to care more about it than her.
“Nonsense! Do you think that I view her that way?”
Seeing Bai Qiuran’s angry look, Tang Ruowei was a little moved.
It seemed that even if he has a wife, the respected master still cares about his student.
And then she heard Bai Qiuran say violently:
“Your dog’s eyes are blind! Her back is obviously bigger than her chest!”
Boom!
Tang Ruowei puffed up her True Qi and slammed her master’s face with a palm.
“Huh, then you leave me no choice.”
The old monster didn’t seem to be able to observe the strength by techniques. Her judgment of the opponent’s strength may be derived from the opponent’s appearance and her instinct.
Just looking at the appearance, Bai Qiuran and the group of people looked like a young master traveling with a bunch of delicate girls and has not brought bodyguards.
However, Bai Qiuran and the others were far from being able to be detected by such an ordinary monster as they converge their aura.
In addition, the monster’s IQ did not seem to completely overwhelm her fierceness, so after being rejected by Bai Qiuran and the others, she decisively raised the knife.
“Little ones, follow me!”
The monster wielded a machete, her face was full of high spirits.
She was in a spirited posture until she died.
…
Li Jinyao inserted the dragon tooth blade back into the scabbard.
Her blade was not even stained with blood. Faced with these low-level monsters, Li Jinyao just drew the blade, released the sword energy, and then retracted the blade back to its sheath, and the surrounding monsters had been killed by her.
Born in the Heavenly Demon Sect, Li Jinyao was familiar with scenes such as humans killing monsters to people, and monsters cannibalizing humans.
But since Bai Qiuran didn’t want to see the monsters cannibalize humans, she killed them all.
Bai Qiuran and the others walked into the village again to take a look, but the village was uninhabited. There were only abandoned human corpses on the road, but they had already turned into a pile of bones.
The cooking smoke just now was created by the monsters. In the largest house in the village, there was a large pot with a pot of human broth churningly boiled in it.
Bai Qiuran used spells to destroy these things and then collected the bones on the street and the unlucky ghost who had been boiled into the broth, dug a big pit and buried it in the village, and then took the girls to continue on the road.
As a result, as soon as they left the village, they ran into an acquaintance on the road at the entrance of the village—or rather, an acquaintance who had a relationship with Su Xiangxue.
“Monster!”
The red-haired woman in a pink kimono decorated with cherry blossoms held the hilt of the knife around her waist and looked at them vigilantly, or at Su Xiangxue.
“Why did you come here? Did you kill the people in this village?”
Su Xiangxue shook her head, while Bai Qiuran came to her and raised her hand to the girl who had returned to her daughter’s dress and said:
“Calm down, miss Haruka Kazama. We have met before, haven’t we?”
“How do you know my name?”
The girl looked at Bai Qiuran strangely. He didn’t use his original face at that time, so she couldn’t recognize him right away.
The girl looked at him, squinted her eyes and thought carefully, and suddenly said:
“It’s you, Black Tiger Afu!”
