Immediately afterwards, the commander slowly pulled out his arm. The right arm had already expanded two or three times in size. The muscles on it were clearly visible, but it turned into a giant petrified arm. The commander then began to deal with it step by step.
He walked over to the battlefield, and with every step he took, the sound of the steps seemed to be twice as loud, as if the earth was shaking. When he got to the back, not to mention others, even his subordinates were staggering around!!
The Demon Fate knew something was wrong and wanted to run away, but his whole body seemed to have become several times heavier. He could only watch helplessly as the distance between himself and the leader shortened step by step.
The commander said calmly:
"This time, our Xuanwu Gate Iron Guards came out in full force. Among the five tribes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, my earth tribe gained the least! If you still escape today? Where can I, Lu Guiwu, put my face??"
After he finished speaking, he stepped in front of the monster, raised his giant rock arm high, and slammed it down.
The demonic creature suddenly opened his mouth and shot out a golden centipede that stung his giant arm, but it had no effect. However, two or three of his fangs were shattered. He could only face this blow with both hands.
He blocked it, but with one blow, he was hit with a "wow" and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his feet sank into the ground, up to his calves!
But the demon-slayer didn't even come back for a breath, but the second blow came again!
He took another blow, and felt that the force of the pressure was almost like a mountain pressing down on him! There was a roar! He gritted his teeth and moved upwards, there was a crisp sound, and the arm bones were actually broken, and
The whole person was dizzy under the huge force, and suddenly fell deeply into the ground, reaching his waist, and the whole person started to vomit violently.
When the commander Lu Guiwu took action again, although the demon was not dead, he only had half a breath left. He sank deeply into the earth, with only his neck exposed. Only the air was coming in and not coming out, Lu Guiwu.
He grabbed a handful of his hair, then lit a lantern to take a look, and suddenly sneered:
"Someone is coming!"
Suddenly an old man in black strode forward and said:
"My subordinate is here."
Lu Guiwu said softly:
"Tear off his fox skin for me!"
The old man in black walked forward and rubbed the man's face carefully for a while, then rubbed it with the two fingers that had been rubbing his face, and saw that there was nothing between the two fingers.
However, powder kept falling down. The old man in black thought carefully and then untied his belt.
I saw that his belt was nothing special. It looked like a long strip of black cloth. In fact, there were probably dozens of finger-sized ceramic bottles on the inside. The old man in black looked like he was cooking. There was a demon.
Sprinkle a little powder east and west on your face, then dissolve it with oil and rub it slowly.
As a result, as he rubbed, he saw that a layer of skin was slowly rubbed off the face of the demon fate, revealing his true face. Lu Guiwu looked at this person's face and laughed loudly:
"Sure enough, it's you! Mr. Xie, the only son of the Kangning Prefect. I didn't expect that our Ministry of Land and Resources would either make a profit or not make a fortune when we come! Kangning Prefect, hahahahahahaha! ¨As soon as someone comes, go and invite Mr. He!"
Not long after, a Taoist priest came in a hurry. Lu Guiwu pointed at the half-dead Mr. Xie and said:
"Today is just the fifteenth day. I have to trouble the real person to peel off the supernatural power and luck from this scourge, and then use the secret technique of Dong Yangyang Gong to disguise it. This method of practicing the practice of pretending to be a demon is really good for catching fish. Tonight is the sixteenth day.
It’s probably a full moon too, so I’m going to try to see if I can catch a big fish!”
This humane said:
"It's possible to do it in such a short time, but the imperial edict and the magical weapon given by Master Dongyang: the Zhuteng Pearl have to be lent to me."
Lu Guiwu waved his hand, and suddenly a layer of something as thin as gauze slowly floated down from the sky. It quickly condensed into a bright pearl. As soon as the pearl appeared, the things surrounding the demon master Xie Gongzi were
The aperture that looked like a searchlight suddenly disappeared. This is the Tuoyan Pearl, which can suppress the fate of those with demon fates. It was specially refined by Dongyang to deal with demon fates!
"Give it to you, give it all to you! But don't mistake me! Although the operation to exterminate these monsters will continue until the New Year, if you are pulled down too much at the beginning, you will not be able to catch up later!"
Commander Lu looks calm on the surface, but his eyes are extremely hot, just because of Dong Yangyang's words:
"The original commander of the Xuanwu Black-armored Guards has been vacant since he died of illness last year. This time, all the Xuanwu Black-armored Guards came out, and the five divisions of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth acted separately. At the end of the operation, the commander with the best results will be
I will recommend it to the Holy One as the great commander!"
The days passed by, and the autumn wind was already blowing. Lin Fengjin's knowledge was also increasing day by day, but his progress in practicing various magical powers became slower at this time. The reason is very simple, there are too many things to learn.
: Sword of the Seven Kingdoms, the Study of Objects for Knowledge, the Art of Hunting Humans and the Art of Conceiving Demons, the Mind Technique also requires training of the pharynx, throat, taste buds, etc.!
During this period of time, Lin Fengjin had not searched for other demons, and even encountered them three times. Among these three times, Lin Fengjin once discovered someone who was not sure to deal with (not in the Snake-Swallowing Army Camp)
The domineering one) took the initiative to retreat, but the other two times it was others who took the initiative to escape.
If they were in the wilderness, the two of them would definitely not be able to escape Lin Fengjin's pursuit, but at this time in Yedu, Lin Fengjin had too many worries. Why? Because there are too many places that cannot be visited, don't say
Even inside the palace, even the backyard of a random official and gentry family was also a forbidden area. Since Lin Fengjin was not sure that he could break in without being discovered, and then be labeled as a "prostitute", he could only be deeply concerned.
sigh.
A yellow leaf passed by Lin Fengjin's eyes. He caught it and crushed it into pieces. Then he stepped into the door with a polite smile on his face and said:
"Uncle Gu.
Sitting on the guest seat is Gu Xian's uncle Gu Cha, whose official title is Yuanwailang. He has been a frequent guest of the Lin family recently, and he had a great time chatting with Mr. Lin.
Under Lin Fengjin's operation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Marquis of Ying both came to taste the delicious food at Tian Xia No. 1 Roast. Therefore, at this time, three of the customers of Tian Xia No. 1 Roast were already officials in Yedu. Eating here has become a
It is a new pastime in Yedu.
After seeing Lin Fengjin come back, Gu Chao said with a smile:
"So, this is my unkind invitation?"
Mr. Lin immediately said with a smile on his face:
"Since Brother Gu has opened his mouth, is it difficult for you to do it? I will make arrangements right now, just make arrangements right now?"
Gu Chao immediately left with satisfaction. Mr. Lin came back with a smile after seeing the guests off. Although he screamed and felt sore as soon as he sat down, and called four maids to press his waist and beat his legs, he seemed to be in a good mood.
After Lin Fengjin sat down, he picked up the account book and flipped through it:
"Huh? Profit has increased by 20% this month? Oh, by the way, the weather is getting colder, so things like offal soup will be more popular. I have already calculated that our profit will remain on this line.
It’s enough, there’s no need to add more, so let’s lower the price of each bowl of soup by one penny.”
"That's not appropriate." Mr. Lin frowned and said, "If the adjustment is lowered, it will be difficult to get up. Yedu is now affected by our influence. Seven or eight new barbecue restaurants have opened, and people selling offal soup can be seen everywhere, and they are
We would rather use other methods to get rebates like the hawker carrying the stove, and the price cannot be lowered."
Lin Fengjin pondered for a moment and said:
"So if you drink a bowl of soup, you will get a piece of multigrain pancake? Or, the soup sold will be divided into three types, a small bowl will cost 10 cents, a medium bowl will cost 15 cents, and a large bowl will cost 20 cents? Or, if a pound of meat offal is 50 cents, the soup will be free.
deliver?"
Mr. Lin said impatiently:
"I'll go down and ask someone to discuss the arrangements. Is there anything else? I'm going to visit Mr. Wang."
Yecheng is a place that doesn't pay much attention to family background, but pays close attention to interests. Therefore, Mr. Lin, who is good at face and even a bit obsessed with officials, can be said to be like a fish in water here. He finally got into the circle of officials and gentry in his dream.
It is said that "there are high-ranking officials to interact with, and there is no idle conversation", but now we must seize the time to expand our social circle and continue to work hard to climb up.
Lin Fengjin said with a helpless smile:
"It's time for us to go back. Firstly, we have to go home to celebrate the New Year. Secondly, I have to go back next year to take the academy examination to become a scholar."
"Ah ah? Are you leaving?" Mr. Lin immediately felt lost.
"Yes." Lin Fengjin said simply: "Isn't our home in Fuling County?"
Mr. Lin stayed for a long time and said:
"Aren't you taking the college exam here?"
Lin Fengjin sighed:
"Of course I can take the college examination here, but there are 18,300 children taking the examination in Yedu this time, and only 200 will be selected, and almost all of these 18,300 students are well-read poetry!
If I go back to Fuling County to take the exam, although there are only twenty places, there are only 638 people taking the exam, and the quality of these people is only about 50% of that of Yedu. Of course I want to grasp the majority of the candidates.
There’s an exam in place!”
Of course Mr. Lin had nothing to say after hearing this. His son's future was important. He was speechless, gritted his teeth, and made a decision:
"I see that you are doing well here in Yecheng. Why don't we move here after we go back and become a scholar this time?"
"No!" Lin Fengjin immediately exclaimed! Are you kidding me? There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers here in Yedu, seizing the power of the direct descendants! You will die if you get close to it, not to mention that there is a mysterious and powerful demon-fate lurking in the Snake-Eating Army.
, move your whole family here? Are you going to give people hostages?
