Chapter 169 Devil
Wuqi hugged his chest with his hands and raised his head. He immediately looked like he was unruly. He glanced at Tikao and Rome with contempt, and chuckled, "Who do you think I am? You don't even see clearly!"
His words were so old-fashioned that Wuqi looked like a young man who was not very experienced in the world. When the two old men saw Wuqi's appearance, they had no confidence in him, and now they shook their heads secretly.
People can be crazy! But being caught by ordinary people like me so easily, even if you dare to be arrogant even with this little strength, it is really overestimable. No wonder people say that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, it is true.
Just as the two old men, Tikao and Rome, were about to turn around and leave, Wuqi hurriedly called them: "Hey! Don't leave! Why are you so uncooperating! I haven't told you my strength yet!"
"Just that nonsense you just said, it has proved how strong you are. Boy, you need capital!" Romi turned around and glared at Wuqi in anger. Tikao was too lazy to even look at Wuqi, so he pulled Romi, "Let's go. Stop talking nonsense to this kid! Anyway, he still doesn't listen, and he can't get out. We've kept locking him here."
"Stop!" When Tikao and Romi had already walked to the door and planned to pull the door up, a loud shout suddenly sounded in their ears. The two of them turned their backs subconsciously and immediately saw Wuqi's eyes full of anger. Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw Wuqi cursing with wide eyes: "You two old guys! Do you look down on me? Do you think I can't beat that monster?"
Tikao glanced at Wuqi in anger and said softly, "So what? You can't even deal with us ordinary people, and you still want to help us? Boy, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk randomly."
Two old guys, it seems that if I don’t show some strength, I really can’t calm you down.
Wuqi was secretly angry inside. He was not a careless person, nor was he a person who was easily impulsive. However, he never set any precautions for his friends.
When Tikao and Rome were entertaining themselves like a welcoming hero, he already regarded the residents of Sinde Town as friends. Unfortunately, he was actually put on a gesture. Of course, he was very angry, but what made him even more angry was that the big net covering his body at this time.
This big net seemed to have some magic power, and it took Wuqi's entire body to take time off. Although he could maintain normal movement, his whole body was weak and his hands and feet were soft, just like he suddenly became a weak woman.
"If it weren't for this big net, how could I be caught by you? If you have the ability, please help me remove the big net. I can help you solve any difficulties! I just want to leave this town." Wuqi said anxiously.
The two old men looked at each other again, and there was another silence. Wuqi was afraid that they would really leave, so he said, "This way. You let me go, I'll help you knock that monster away."
He said it was relaxed, but in fact he had no idea, but this was the only way in front of him.
"What should I do? Mayor, tell him?" Romi asked suspiciously. Tikao was silent for a long time, then turned around and looked at Wuqi. After confirming that the boy was not joking, he nodded slowly and sighed: "Okay. It doesn't matter to tell him."
Romi nodded in agreement, and he slowly turned around and came to the iron fence, cleared his throat, and began to tell: "Our Xinde Town was not very special at the beginning. It was just a very ordinary town, and everyone's life was very happy and leisurely. But for some reason, a series of strange things began to happen in our town ten years ago."
Romi leaned over and looked at Wuqi. Seeing that the other party was extremely serious about listening, he continued: "We have a blacksmith shop in our town, which is the one I own. Before I retired, some foreign merchants would come to our town to buy a large number of weapons every one or two months.
Everyone is also happy to get along with foreign guests because our town is remote and far away from the city. Even the fastest horse in the town takes one week to reach the nearest city. So everyone is used to staying in the town and living their own lives.
However, one day ten years ago, we found some clothes and shoes of the residents of the town outside the town. Everyone was very surprised. The old mayor and I also investigated the matter together. However, we found a rule that as long as someone went out of our town, we could find the clothes of relevant people outside the town in one day."
Speaking of this, Romi's eyes showed great pain, and he continued, "Later, the old mayor and I felt strange. My eldest son, me, the old mayor and a dozen strong men in the town left the town with weapons. We planned to go out and confirm what caused it. During the first day, we did not find anything unusual, but the nightmare began at night."
Seeing that Luo Mi's expression became more and more sad, he patted the other person's back with concern, and then Luo Mi said, "At night, I feel something is wrong. A remote and mountainous town like us is very cold at night. When the night wind blows, everyone will shivering suddenly.
However, after we lit the bonfire outside that night, we felt a strange feeling of heat all over our body, and the air seemed to be burning. Sometimes we could hear the burning sound of 'squeaking' flames. When our bonfire was extinguished, we felt even hotter. Rome and his eldest son went out to check together, but we saw a huge and terrible black shadow."
"Black Shadow?" Wuqi asked subconsciously,
Tikao nodded, "It's just a black shadow. It's so big. It's like the height of two or three elephants together. The three of us slept in the same tent. So as soon as we went out, we were all stunned. The monster couldn't see clearly at all, but we saw a row of saw-like fangs appearing in the black shadow, and it was actually eating other residents in other tents."
"It was at this time that my eldest son was eaten by the monster in order to protect me and the mayor. However, the two of us old men successfully escaped back to the town because we rode a horse, but we didn't know that the monster actually returned to the town with us like a demon. Yes, it was not a monster, it should be a demon."
Speaking of this, Luo Mi's eyes showed an extremely angry expression. His whole face became completely distorted due to anger. His ferocious expression and wrinkles made people feel heartbroken. Wuqi sighed softly, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little nervous. He was not in a hurry to ask, but after Luo Mi calmed down, he continued to ask: "What about later?"
Tikao said slowly: "Later, the demon chased the town and ate a lot of the residents in the town. Fortunately, a very powerful sealer came to our town at that time. After he defeated the demons, he set up a seal outside our town to deal with the demons, so that we can live in the town safely. This seal will only restrict the demons from entering our town, and there is no limit to humans."
"So, this demon has not died yet and has not left around the town?" Hearing this, Wuqi guessed a rough idea in his heart, and he asked in confusion.
Tikao nodded silently, and Wuqi asked again: "Then this is the real reason why your town is only allowed to enter but not exit. As long as any guest wants to leave, you will imprison them like I am?"
Tikao nodded slowly, Wuqi's inner doubts became even more serious. He asked in confusion: "Then I don't understand one thing. Since the sealer who helped your town set up the seals had fought with the demon, and he could fight off the demon, why not just destroy the demon?"
"Because he is dead." Romi replied in a low voice.
"Die?" Wuqi looked at Luo Mi in a daze, looking disbelief, and said again: "Did he die in the battle with the demon?"
"Yeah." Tikao sighed helplessly, with an extremely regretful expression. "If we hadn't tried our best to persuade the sealing master to help us eliminate the demons, he wouldn't have died. It's all because of Rome and I were eager to take revenge at that time. Alas..."
The sealing technique has been recorded in the Ancient Scrolls. Wuqi has also seen it. If he mastered this sealing technique, it would be a very powerful skill. A mere demon who resembles a monster is not enough to kill a junior sealing master. Is it because the sealing technique is not as good as a demon? Or is the demon really not a monster, but an indestructible one?
Wuqi guessed in his heart, but he immediately shook his head. The records in the Ancient Scrolls are not wrong, and this sealing technique cannot be false. After thinking for a while, he whispered: "How did you die? As far as I know, the sealing technique should be very powerful. The demon should not do anything to the sealing master, right? Even if he is just a junior sealing master, it will not be possible to die in battle. Could it be that the demon will not bleed, or has an immortal body?"
Tikao shook his head silently, Romi sighed and replied regretfully: "When the seal master fought with the demon, the demon was indeed bleeding. We also saw it with our own eyes. Unfortunately, the seal master was eventually killed by the demon. Because."
"Why? Is that sealer fake?" Wuqi could only think of this answer. But Tikao and Romi shook their heads at the same time. Tikao sighed and said, "It was not until the sealer finally escaped back to our town with serious injuries. Before he died, we finally knew that he was just an amateur sealer.
I was once lucky to be taught some sealing techniques because of helping a sealing master. Then I came out to explore the world and arrived in our Xinde Town. We thought he was very powerful, but who knew that he would die so easily. Alas..."
After saying that, the two old men sighed again. Wuqi then understood what was going on. It turned out that the seal master was just a monk who became a monk halfway.
Amateur is amateur, no wonder I can't figure it out. So that's the case. However, the seal set by this amateur sealer can actually prevent this demon from entering the town. It seems that this demon is not such a powerful character. As long as I capture its breath, I can play it to death.
What a smart person Wuqi is. He just turned his mind slightly and realized it completely. Confidence was swarming like a tide, which instantly made him feel more confident and confident. His eyes suddenly became brighter.
But he still had the last question in his heart that he had not solved, so he asked, "Since you said that the devil is still around, but when I came to your town, I didn't see the devil? What's going on? Why didn't I find it at that time?"
