Zhang Mu looked at them and knew they were coming towards the four of them, so he stretched out his hand to signal to stop.
After these people came to Zhang Mu, the old man who looked very much like the village chief raised his hands and said, "I wonder if the four of you are immortal masters from Qingfeng Valley."
Zhang Mu wasn't surprised when he heard this. After all, he had learned about it from Su Liu. The relatives of Qingfeng Valley's Dharma Protector during the Foundation Establishment Period must have known something.
After thinking about it, he nodded and said with a smile: "Exactly, I wonder what my husband is..."
When the old man heard that he was really a disciple of Qingfeng Valley, he smiled and said in a respectful voice: "Excuse me for troublesome immortal masters, I am the village chief of Liujia Village."
Zhang Mu said: "It turns out to be Mr. Liu. It's my job to subjugate and eliminate demons. There's no need to be so polite."
"Haha, that's it, that's it. Now that I'm here, let me and I go have a meal. The food and wine have already been prepared for the immortal masters."
When Zhang Mu heard this, he looked back at the three people who had already nodded, and said with a helpless smile: "Okay, then I will be respectful and obey your orders."
In this way, the four of them followed Mr. Liu to a large restaurant.
After coming in, they saw a large table of good wine and delicious food. The four of them, who were already very hungry, started to eat Husse after being polite for a while.
I went to a good room prepared by Mr. Liu and had a very peaceful night's rest.
The next day, after getting up and having some breakfast, Zhang Mu got to the point and said, "Mr. Liu, I wonder if there are any demons causing trouble in this village?"
When Mr. Liu heard this, he sighed and said: "The four immortal masters don't know something. The population of our Liujia Village is considered normal. But after a woman disappeared three months ago, she disappeared one after another. Until now, she has disappeared one after another.
There are dozens of them.
If this continues, I am afraid that my Liujia Village will lose its balance, so I just sent people to Qingfeng Valley, which will cause trouble to several immortal masters."
After hearing this, Zhang Yang murmured in his heart, this demon that can rob women is either a demon cultivator in the transformation stage, or a monk's demon cultivator and demon cultivator.
If it was the latter, Zhang Mu wouldn't be so worried. After all, the monk's demonic and demonic cultivators shouldn't be that strong.
Zhang Mu also has some information about the way monks cultivate immortality. For example, monks are divided into Confucianism cultivators, Taoist cultivators, Buddhist cultivators, demon cultivators, demon cultivators, ghost cultivators, etc...
These things that can be said are fairly common, but no matter how rare the monks are, it is not something that person can say.
After all, no one can explain the various arts of cultivating immortals clearly, and no one dares to say that he can explain clearly the techniques of cultivating immortals.
But if it's the former, then it's just a hornet's nest. Let alone the four of them, even if the guardians from the foundation-building period come, it won't help.
If he were really a demon cultivator in the transformation stage, Zhang Mu would never say another word and return to Qingfeng Valley immediately.
It's not that Zhang Mu is cruel and doesn't want to save people. It's just that he still says that if you want to save people, you must have the strength. If you don't have the strength, you are seeking death. He is not a person who pretends to be fat.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, have any of you seen this monster?"
Mr. Liu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I haven't paid attention to this. I will put out a notice right now to see if anyone has seen it. Then I will inform some immortal masters."
Zhang Mu nodded and said: "Well, let's go out and explore first. If we can find this monster, we will eradicate him to prevent him from harassing Liujia Village."
Mr. Liu showed tears of gratitude, and thanked him with his hands: "I'd like to trouble some immortal masters. I'll go and make a notice." After saying that, he walked out of the guest room.
After seeing Mr. Liu leave, Liu Li frowned and said, "Muzi, what do you think is going on?"
Zhang Mu sighed and said: "I can't say this. I hope it's not a demon in the transformation stage. If so, you and I should leave as soon as possible. This is not something we can mess with."
Liu Lidao: "I think so too. But if I think about it carefully, it is unlikely that the demon cultivator is in the transformation stage. After all, the transformation stage is equivalent to the existence of the Nascent Soul stage. Could it appear here?"
Zhang Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not impossible, it's better to be careful."
Then, the four of them walked out of the guest room, intending to see if they could ask anything."
I was walking on a relatively flat dirt road. When I looked up, I saw a man with a sword on his back.
Zhang Mu smiled and said, "Let's go over and ask." After saying that, he took the lead and walked over.
The man carrying the sword seemed to have sensed it. He watched Zhang Mu come and didn't move away, and stood there waiting for his arrival.
Stopping in front of the man carrying the sword, he cupped his hands and said, "I have admired this strong man for a long time."
"We have known each other for a long time?"
Zhang Mu smiled and said: "We have never met each other."
"What's the matter, brother?"
Zhang Mu said: "We heard that there are demons causing trouble here, so we came here to slay them. We saw that the strong man was not an ordinary person, so we came here to ask."
After hearing this, the man looked at Zhang Mu and the four of them, and then smiled and said: "It turns out that we are from the same group. My name is Ku Xiu. What do you call them?"
Zhang Mu said: "Zhang Mu, nice to meet you."
"Liu Li."
"Sun Xiao."
"Lin Han."
Ku Xiu smiled and said: "It's a pleasure to meet you. Since the four of you are asking about this matter, let's find a place to talk."
Zhang Mu nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the restaurant in front." After saying that, he took the lead and walked over.
In the restaurant, five people were sitting at the table with wine and food on it.
"Brother Ku, I don't know, what do you think about the evil spirits?"
Ku Xiu said politely: "I can't tell you my opinion. I also passed by here and heard from the villagers that there was a demon again. Of course, I intend to help the villagers understand this matter."
"I see, then you don't know which sect Brother Ku is a disciple of?"
Ku Xiu shook his head and smiled: "Ku is ashamed. He just learned the method of cultivating immortals by accident. He has no sect background."
Zhang Mu arrived randomly: "It just so happens that the four of us are the same way. But we were invited by them, so we want to find out. Since Brother Ku also has this intention, it's better to kill this monster together."
Ku Xiu said boldly: "It's just what I wanted. In my opinion, this can't be caused by demons. It must be the monk's demonic cultivation or ghost cultivation."
Zhang Mu said: "Why are you so sure?"
This can be regarded as speaking of Zhang Mu's innermost feelings. If he were really a demon, he would have to leave. Now that I heard what Ku Xiu said, I was a little mentally prepared.
"Although I am a casual cultivator, I have heard of many things. Such methods of snatching women are probably not only demon cultivators and ghost cultivators who practice evil arts, but also demon cultivators.
If it is really a demon causing trouble, it is probably a bit unrealistic. The demon cultivators in the transformation stage are not something we can resist, and if they are so dry, they can only run away."
Zhang Mu was happy when he heard this: "This is also human nature. You and I have not even reached the Qi Refining Stage, so how can we fight with the Nascent Soul Stage's Transformation Stage?"
Finally, I talked with Ku Xiu for a long time, and finally understood some things.
It is initially estimated that the ones causing the trouble are evil cultivators. After all, it is impossible for a demon that has not reached the stage of transformation to sit still and remain calm.
Thinking of this, Zhang Mu and others felt relieved. After all, there were five of them here, so they were afraid that just one of them would be unable to succeed in cultivation?
It was evening in a flash, and Mr. Liu also brought good news.
Some people have indeed seen it, but they dare not speak out because of fear. Now that they are better, they know that an immortal master is here to help eliminate the demon, so they dare to speak out.
According to this person's reasoning, he is definitely an evil cultivator and not a demon cultivator in the transformation stage at all.
Because this person saw with his own eyes the scene of the evil cultivator grabbing the woman. Although he could move his hands very easily, he did not have the strength to do it with just a wave of his hand.
The final conclusion is that the level of evil cultivation and body training is unknown.
With this piece of news, Zhang Mu and the other five were relieved. Zhang Mu looked at Old Liu and said, "Don't worry, Old Liu. We will go out to explore in a moment. If we encounter any demons, we will eradicate them without leaving any further trouble."
Mr. Liu said gratefully: "Then I'll trouble some immortal masters."
"Mr. Liu, you're welcome."
"If the immortal master can eradicate this demon, I will definitely offer a hundred gold leaves to express my gratitude to these immortal masters for their great kindness."
Zhang Mu was happy when he heard this. He didn't expect that in addition to the reward of five hundred gold leaves, he would also get one hundred gold leaves.
But now there are five people, and each person can get a share of twenty gold leaves, which is pretty good for a few people.
The happiest person is Ku Xiu. After all, he is a casual cultivator and can get a lot of gold leaves there. If he were to do it alone, it would probably be in vain and he would not get any reward.
With Zhang Mu and the other two coming down with their sect mission, Ku Xiu also got the benefit of the doubt.
After sending Mr. Liu away, Zhang Mu began to distribute the goods. After all, it was not good to have too many people together, and the evil cultivators would definitely run away when they saw them.
Now Shu Kuxiu is the strongest, and he is already in the early stage of Mahayana training. Zhang Mu has not yet reached Hinayana, which shows that the gap between the two is not as big as usual.
Finally, there was a group of Ku Xiu, a group of Zhang Mu and Lin Han, and a group of Liu Li and Sun Xiao. After they were sorted, they went on patrol separately.
Zhang Mu led Lin Han into a small road, but Lin Han was not very scared.
"Xiao Han, aren't you quite timid? You are not afraid at all."
Lin Han smiled innocently and said: "Brother Muzi, what am I afraid of when you are here?"
Zhang Mu smiled and said: "Don't worry, Brother Muzi is here, I will definitely hold you safe and sound."
"Thank you, Brother Muzi."
Afterwards, Zhang Mu raised his spirits to twelve points. After all, when encountering evil cultivators, he was not like Liu Bao, who just got beaten up and it was over. Now he was risking his life.
It was when he killed the wolf demon last time that he realized that death was actually very close to him, so Zhang Mu practiced so hard.
After walking more than a dozen streets, Zhang Mu felt a little sleepy. After all, this is completely different from cultivation. If you practice cultivation, not only will you not be sleepy, but you will be a hundred times more energetic, completely different from other people.
Now, no matter whether it is Ku Xiu or Liu Li and Sun Xiao, no one dares to say that he is sleepy. They are afraid of encountering evil cultivators who do not keep their spirits up.
Zhang Mu searched for a while, stretched out, pointed to a platform and said, "Okay, Xiao Han, let's go, follow me somewhere to rest for a while."
Lin Han was very surprised and said: "Ah! Take a rest?"
