MTL - Prehistoric: A Stable Life, Starting From the Journey To the West-Chapter 77

While expelling the chills from his body, he also roasted his clothes that were soaked in the heavy rain.

"Whether the guests want to shelter from the rain or stay in the hotel, do they need to provide braziers and drinks?"

Seeing Chen Qi coming in, the shopkeeper of the station who was doing the accounting immediately stroked the mustache at the corner of his mouth and asked with a smile.

"Stay in the hotel, three people and one carriage, and a brazier, and prepare some food."

Chen Qi replied with a smile, then led the little book boy Chen An to the corner of the inn and found an empty table to sit down.

Boom!

The thunder continued, and the rain became heavier.

In the inn, the jumping brazier dried the clothes and dispelled the chills on everyone.

The atmosphere was no longer so depressing, and he began to talk and laugh.

The world is difficult, and you can't live your life crying.

Most of them are short and dirty jokes from parents, whose mother-in-law steals a man, whose son is not his own.

Or it is difficult to do business, where disasters are recruited, where bandits have robbed, and need to be detoured.

Suddenly, the words of one of them caught Chen Qi's attention.

"Have you all heard about Dali Town?" Gan.

Chapter 121 The strange thing about the demons in Dali Town, the first encounter with the captain of the demon! (please subscribe)

"Have you all heard about Dali Town?"

In the Tiger Station, a man dressed as a businessman asked his accomplice mysteriously.

"Who doesn't know, it's haunted, what's so rare about this kind of thing!"

"I remember that Dali Town has been haunted for more than a year. It hasn't stopped until now, and the sales of goods don't dare to pass there."

A young businessman couldn't help but complain: "I've been caught, I've been caught, people are panicking, and I don't know what the official is doing?"

"Cough, cough, you're drinking too much horse urine, what nonsense!"

As soon as the young businessman finished speaking, an older businessman dressed as an old man beside him kicked the man, looked at the others carefully, and scolded: "It's not haunted, how to catch it, I don't know where to say something. What a fool to hear!"

The man also seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed the subject.

Only the businessman who spoke at first said faintly, "If he's talking nonsense, that's fine."

Several other people frowned, some didn't understand why this person had to provoke this, Mo Hong started, and this topic came up.

However, the businessman ignored his companion's reaction, with a palpitation on his face, and said tremblingly, "You guys don't know, I came from the road in Dali Town yesterday, and Dali Town is gone."

"No? What do you mean?"

"Well, it's gone, it's just like it's been desolate for more than ten years. The whole town is empty and there is no one. I was so scared that I didn't even dare to look at it, and I didn't dare to stop at night. Until now, my legs and feet are still shaking. ."

The words of Xingshang fell. Whether it was a few accomplices around, or the pedestrians who were eavesdropping not far away, they couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the whole Tiger Station was quiet for a while.

"I remember that there are more than 1,000 people in Dali Town, right? Are they all gone?"

After a long time, the old man who had just taught the young businessman to have no ghosts asked incredulously.

As an old businessman who has been traveling for decades, he still can't believe his ears.

He was a little confused.

If it was the turbulent times in previous years, natural and man-made disasters, and demons rampant, it would be justified.

But now it is the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Dao's luck is prosperous, how can there still be such unscrupulous ghosts?

A whole population of more than 1,000 people just disappeared.

This is completely unimaginable for the old businessman.

"No, no more."

"Could it be that he received an order from the imperial court and moved away?"

someone asked.

"Hehe, the whole town is quiet, just like it has been abandoned for more than ten years. There is not even a bird call. Do you think the town has moved away, or is it haunted?" Xingshang sneered.

Just as a house is built, if no one lives in it, the house will fall into disrepair much faster.

Often a new house for two or three years will be the same as an old house that people have lived in for more than ten years.

The only thing missing is popularity.

If there are people inhabited, the popularity is enough, and the house is desolate and slow, and vice versa.

And can a town be abandoned in a short period of time and become uninhabited for more than ten years?

None of the people present were fools, so I don't know if something happened to the ghost.

Not to mention, the surrounding town was silent, not even a single bird chirped.

This also means that there is something terrifying entrenched in the center of the town. It is no wonder that the merchants are so frightened that they dare not stay even at night. They would rather stay away from there at the threat of being hit by evil spirits and beasts at night.

After the merchants finished speaking, the tiger station fell into silence again, only the charcoal fire in the brazier was burning quietly.

In the corner of the inn, Chen Qi's heart was also uneasy.

Although he already knew that the world was dangerous, he never thought it would be so dangerous.

A town with a thousand people, if you say no, there will be no more.

And listening to the merchant's meaning, the ghost is still entrenched in the town and has not left.

This had to make him wonder if the ghost was too strong, or if the Dragon Qi of the Tang Dynasty was useless.

Boom!

Just when Dali Town disappeared and became silent in the inn, the door of the inn was pushed open again, and a loud sound of thunder came in from outside the inn, which made the merchants and pedestrians in the inn couldn't help but startled and looked towards the door of the inn. go.

At the entrance of the station, a figure stood.

It was an extremely burly and majestic man wearing black armor with mysterious patterns engraved on it.

The head of the door is a bit shorter than him, the waist is half a foot wider than the door frame, and his face is full of black hair, looking like a bear.

On one side of his waist is a two-handed wide sword, and on the other side is a large ghost-headed sword. On his back is an iron bow and a pot of feather arrows, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

"Human Bear" lowered his head, turned his body sideways, and entered the station.

"Hey man, do you want to take shelter from the rain temporarily, or stay in a hotel, but prepare some food?"

When the shopkeeper saw this strong man, it was not an account, and an extremely reluctant smile appeared on his face, and he greeted cautiously.

This body, this armament, it's really not good to say hello accidentally!

Even though their Tiger Post is behind the Tiger Gang, one of the top three and four factions in Qingzhou, they also have a background and background.

But this does not mean that he, a small tiger station, can ignore such a mighty and majestic man.

One of their arms is thicker than their thighs, and they are swords, strong bows, armors, etc.

He is a small shopkeeper of the station, and he really can't afford to provoke him.

"Stay in the store, and then bring me a jar of good wine and twenty catties of pork and mutton."

The man bears a strong man, glanced at the shopkeeper of the station, and said, in a muffled voice. . . .

"Okay, guest, take a seat, and I'll let the kitchen prepare it for you."

The shopkeeper's meeting Xiong Zhuanghan said, and immediately replied, and then greeted Xiao Er to go down and prepare.

"Young master, it's Colonel Fumo!"

In the corner of the Tiger Station, the little book boy Chen An saw that Chen Qi was curious, and immediately explained in a low voice.

Captain Fumo is a person from the Datang Demon Slayer Division, who is specially responsible for dealing with demons and beasts in the Tang Dynasty.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, in order to frighten the world's demons and learn from the previous dynasty, the Department of Demon Slayer was specially established, and the post of the ambush school captain was set up.

Such as the black armor on the strong man's body, it is the symbol of the captain of the subduing demon.

Even the little book boy, Chen An, recognized the Demon Commander, not to mention the well-informed businessmen who traveled around the world.

One by one, they suddenly felt relieved. Instead of being afraid, they praised him as a hero who slays demons and slayers demons.

Well, as expected of a hero who slays demons and eliminates demons.

This body is sturdy.

With such a size, it is only easy to tear apart tigers, leopards and wolves, and you have to be afraid when you encounter monsters.

Hearing everyone's praise, the strong man didn't say much, just nodded indifferently, then looked around, and walked in the direction of the group of traders who first talked about the ghosts in Dali Town.

"A certain family just heard from you that there are monsters here, can you tell me in detail for a certain family?"

That man Xiong Zhuanghan was not polite, he walked near the group of merchants and sat down directly, making the group of merchants uneasy.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of, a certain family is not a monster, can it still eat you all?"

"Quickly tell a certain family where the demon came from. This month, the demon removal index of a certain family is still a little bit worse. It just happened to get rid of this monster, and it will save you running around."

The strong man hummed, his voice was like thunder, making people terrified.

"Master Hui, it's Dali Town, which is twenty miles away. The entire town's population of thousands has disappeared."

"My brother went through there yesterday when he was a merchant. He realized something was wrong and ran back immediately."

Facing the inquiries of the strong man, the old man in the business stood up and told everything he had heard before.

"The whole town, thousands of people, have all disappeared?"

When the man bear strong man heard the words, he couldn't help but look condensed, and suddenly felt that things were difficult.

In the Tang Dynasty, it is not uncommon for demons to harm people, but it is absolutely impossible for ordinary demons to directly slaughter a town.

It can't be said that it is a middle-grade demon, or a big demon in the upper third-grade realm.

Such a monster is not something he can deal with as a small seventh-rank martial arts captain.

After realizing the seriousness of the matter, the strong man's heart sank, and he immediately called the shopkeeper of the station and asked sharply, "Do you know about the incident in Dali Town, twenty miles away?".

Chapter 122 Demons and ghosts, the hexagram is smooth sailing! (please subscribe)

The name of Captain Fumo is still very easy to use.

Under the questioning of the strong man, Chen Qi, who was eavesdropping in the corner, also understood what the situation was in Dali Town.

As the passer-by said, Dali Town began to be haunted a year or so ago.

It's just that in the beginning, the ghosts didn't harm anyone, and the local government didn't pay much attention to it, and only sent a few yamen to come here a few times.

It is said that during this period, the government also invited the Demon Commander to come, but nothing was found, so he did not pay attention.

About ten days ago, the ghosts in Dali Town suddenly broke out. Over a thousand people in the town disappeared overnight, so that the surrounding villages were all panicked.

Especially in the villages near Dali Town, there were ten rooms and nine empty spaces, and they all fled in fright.

After hearing what the shopkeeper of the station said, both the strong man and Chen Qi couldn't help frowning.

Because of this kind of thing, strictly speaking, the local government is really no wonder.

After all, after receiving the report, the local government not only dispatched yamen to check on it many times, but also invited the Demon Slayer Division Commander.

The only regret is that neither the official yamen nor the Demon Slayer Division Master Fu Mo was able to discover the existence of the demon in the first time, which led to the disaster in Dali Town.

"Is the demon 06 too cunning, or is the Demon Slayer's inspection method too simple?"

"Or, is the Captain Fumo who came to Dali Town for inspection careless?"

For a time, neither Chen Qi nor that man Xiong Zhuanghan couldn't help but ponder.

After thinking about it, there was no result in the end, and I can only blame this **** world.

"Well, a certain family knows. After the rain is clear, a certain family will go to Dali Town to investigate. You can rest assured that a certain family will find a way to deal with the demons entrenched in the town as soon as possible."
