It's not just monsters that are scary in the world. Sometimes people's hearts are more scary than monsters.

On the way back, I passed through a certain village. Officials forcibly took away the farmers' grain, which they called tax grain. The old man knelt down and cried, and the young child with withered hair hid behind his back in fear and stared at the grain...

When recruiting young people, there will be no young people in poor villages; when collecting grain, women and children will be able to look good; in such a large village, there will be no roosters and no cattle.

The old man grabbed the grain bag with his calloused hands and refused to let go. The girl cried loudly, and the official raised the whip and beat him fiercely. Suddenly, the coarse cloth broke into pieces and the blood on his back turned red. The child felt sorry for the grandfather and rushed forward to resist the whip with his small body.

, the villagers came forward to plead for mercy. The old man's son had not returned from Zhengding for three years, and his daughter-in-law had left early because of fatigue. The little grain was the life food of the grandfather and grandson.

Xu Ling wanted to take action but was stopped by Yang Mu. As disciples of Chunyang, they wanted to avoid being suspected of winning over people's hearts and avoid conflicts with the secular imperial power. Bai Yujun didn't care that much.

The horses neighed and the people stood up.

The officials were so frightened that they quickly backed away. When they saw the two Chunyang monks sitting on the horse next to them, they also saw clearly that the person who was scaring them was a young girl.

"Exempt them from food taxes." Bai Yujun said calmly.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with snakes, but I just didn't like it.

"Immortal? We collect taxes in accordance with the law. If we can't collect taxes, the official will punish us. Please forgive me, Immortal." A certain petty official among the police replied.

It’s not surprising that a junior official would dare to directly refute the behavior of Bai Yujun, who looks like a monk from Chunyang Palace. Everyone knows that Chunyang monks don’t care about worldly affairs and focus on cultivation. As long as they don’t practice evil arts and don’t do evil, they won’t care about it, even for the sake of reputation.

It's okay for you to contradict me occasionally, unlike other monks from the sect who kill people if they disagree with you. To put it bluntly, you are used to it.

Bai Yujun stared at the clerk curiously and found that instead of being afraid, the clerk was looking at him with lustful eyes.

"Two choices, first, I will kill you, second, get out immediately."

The officials were stunned, and suddenly remembered that monks do not have to pay for their lives. After reacting, they immediately stumbled away. Bai Yujun curled his lips, it seemed that the law of the forest was more effective.

The people came forward to thank him one after another, and Bai Yujun rode away without saying a word.

He looked at Yang Mu and Xu Ling who were hesitant.

"From now on, if anyone brings up today's issue, they will say it was me."

After a pause, he said another sentence.

"The real monster is not the appearance, but the heart."

Bai Yujun knew history well. Only a few people were actually killed by demons. On the contrary, human persecution and even the so-called struggle for world hegemony caused millions of deaths and even annihilation of the entire clan. The demons in people's hearts are more terrifying than the spirits.

However, these have nothing to do with snakes, they are human affairs.

Returning to the station in the evening, the senior brother and others who had gone out to slay demons and demons had not returned yet. Xu Ling yawned and went back to his room to sleep. Yang Mu took the time to practice as always.

Sometimes Bai Yujun felt that Xu Ling must be a genius, but he was always lazy and stupid and his cultivation was not much worse than that of the diligent Yang Mu.

Bai Yujun is a snake who doesn't have to sleep every day. He sits alone in the backyard under the moonlit night and practices playing the flute. Unfortunately, this arty work makes the white snake, who is good at hunting and fighting, go crazy. He grabs the flute and smashes it to pieces...

In the room, Yang Mu shook his head.

"There are three left."

…………

The next day, the people who went out still didn't come back.

After some discussion, the two of them decided to go for a stroll in the ferry town, buy some snacks and watch the sideshows, so they left as soon as they could. After talking to Miao Zhu, they wandered down the mountain.

"Fragrant pear~Fragrant and sweet fragrant pear~"

“Shaobing~freshly baked~delicious and healing~”

Of course, in addition to being leisurely, there is also the sound of not having enough to eat.

"Uncle...please give me some money for food..."

The crossing city is very lively, with caravans coming and going in an endless stream. The busy commerce has created a prosperous city. In order not to be stared at, Bai Yujun and Xu Ling bought gauze and put it on their faces to cover their mouths and noses. At least they can reduce their self-esteem.

The wild bees and butterflies of the handsome young man.

Bai Yujun and Yang Mu and Xu Ling looked to be only fifteen years old, especially Bai Yujun, who was petite and only about 1.5 meters tall. The two beauties were eating the candied haws in their hands and chattering while Xu Ling spent most of the time talking to herself.

In ancient times, when children were fifteen years old, their children would already be one or two years old. There were not many people who could go out and hang out.

While wandering around all the way, Bai Yujun had no intention of staying away from Yang Mu and Xu Ling. These days, there are too many monks who think about conquering demons all day long. Let’s not talk about whether their motives are true or false. Once no one takes care of them, they are just snake spirits.

It would be embarrassing for me to face those monks who were killed and made into dried snakes as traditional Chinese medicine to be sold to patients to dispel wind, evil spirits and rheumatism.

Come whatever you want...

A young man carrying a black stick on his back was walking along the street, turning left and right with a compass in his hand.

As he walked, he found that the pointer was still. When he looked up, he found that the pointer was pointing to a girl in a white dress. Then, he perfectly performed a set of action slogans that a demon slayer should have.

"Hey! The evildoer dares to enter the city in broad daylight! Don't hurt anyone's life! Hurry up and bring him to justice!"

There was a loud bang and the black iron rod was pointed at Bai Yujun.

Bai Yujun was speechless holding the candied haws in hand...

I didn't expect that someone would come to my door so soon to slay demons. Aren't there very few people who can see through the aura? When I looked at the compass carefully, I immediately understood that among all the strange magic weapons, there are always some weird ones.

Seeing that the young man's cultivation was not high, Bai Yujun stopped Yang Mu and Xu Ling and thought of a bad idea.

The candied haws dropped to the ground, with her hands on her shoulders and her face whimpering in fear, looking like a frightened, fragile woman...

Yang Mu's mouth twitched and he took two steps away for fear of being thought of as an accomplice. Xu Ling was stunned. In her opinion, a vicious snake would never act in such a panic.

The young man was stunned, a little confused.

When have you ever met a monster in the past that didn't involve a vicious fight? How come you met such a timid one?

Immediately, the original demon subduer turned into a strong man bullying a good girl in the street.

There is no shortage of righteous people in the world, especially the one who was bullied was a delicate young lady. Immediately, many men and even scholars gathered around him with a strong sense of justice. Even the elders and aunties stood in the distance and pointed at the young man.

"What's going on? You want to bully someone when you see them beautiful? Come and try to bully me!" A certain strong man didn't like it.

"You also know that in broad daylight? I know Zhang Tongpan of the Yamen, and I will definitely send you, a ruthless gangster, to see the official!" A certain scholar spoke righteously.

"It's too much! It's too much! I've seen people like you too many times! You're a lecher!" a businessman shouted loudly.

The situation changed too fast. The exorcist who thought he could get the support of everyone had obviously never experienced such a scene. It was quite miserable to be surrounded by a group of people and throw stones at him.

"Listen to me... Ouch... that's a monster..."

Onlookers didn't buy it

"What kind of monster! It's obviously you who likes her beauty and wants to tease her and watch her get beaten!"
