Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

[Digital chapter! 】

To be honest, since Shen Lang came into contact with Mu Qingxue, a third-rank master at the beginning, and then successively came into contact with first-rank Venerable Liuli, Yan Tianying, and Master Wanfa, Shen Lang's horizons were unknowingly raised too high.

As a result, his cognition of his own strength is inevitably a bit too meager-although my buddy is a dual-cultivator of both law and martial arts, his law is only at the sixth rank, and his martial arts is only at the sixth rank, which is too far away from the fourth rank. low!
But in fact, with his comprehensive strength of both martial arts and martial arts, even if he is not a little demon, he is already a strong man who is not afraid of ordinary fourth-rank warriors.

Counting Xiao Yao, he could even fight a fourth-rank martial artist.

This kind of strength, in the God Catch Hall, is already considered the first echelon under the three third-rank God Catchers including Yan Tianying, Wanfa Zhenren, and Mu Qingxue.

"I chose to send you, Xiao Shen, to participate in this investigation. First, because you are familiar with Xiaomu and have experience in cooperating with investigations. This time, you should be able to cooperate tacitly. Second, because you, Xiao Shen, have a wealth of undercover investigation experience. Experience, and I have great confidence in you in that regard."

"Master Yan, what do you mean, I am also an undercover agent this time?"

"That's right. When Xiao Mu disguised himself to save others and was caught by mistake, he discovered the true faces of the three kidnappers with secret techniques, and sent back their appearances during the interrogation. The identity and whereabouts of one of them have been revealed." Make sure, you will go there tonight, use the spell of 'All Beings' to replace him, wait for the opportunity, and break into the kidnapper's lair."

With that said, Yan Tianying handed another portrait to Shen Lang.

When Shen Lang looked at the portrait, Yan Tianying introduced:

"This man's name is Shen Sanlang, 28 years old, from Gufeng Mansion, who lives near the south gate of the outer city of Gufeng Mansion, and runs a noodle restaurant.

"He is a native of Gufeng. His ancestors have lived in Gufeng Mansion for three generations. The noodle restaurant is also a time-honored restaurant. He has a wealthy family and is willing to give. He often gives porridge, rice and steamed buns to refugees and beggars...

"Generally speaking, on the surface, this man is a good old man. No one even knows that he knows martial arts, and he has an entry-level fourth-rank cultivation."

In the portrait, Shen Sanlang has a round face and big earlobes. He looks like a chubby, doughy Maitreya Buddha, with a benevolent and kind-hearted appearance.

Just looking at his face, it is really impossible to tell that he is actually a member of a group of kidnappers who specialize in kidnapping chivalrous women.

"It's still my family..."

Shen Lang muttered, unfolded the map of Dachu in his mind, quickly locked on the location of Gufeng Mansion, and asked:
"Gufeng's mansion is more than 2000 miles away. Even if Shen Sanlang's face is quite special, if there is no criminal record, no one even knows that he knows martial arts. With the hands of the Shencatching Hall, how can he just rely on a portrait? Find him in a short time?"

Yan Tianying smiled:

"Naturally ask Venerable Liuli to take action. Facing the portrait, use 'Sky Eye' and 'Fate Tong' to search."

"Aren't those above the third grade of Buddhism not allowed to interfere with secular affairs?"

"Since there is a demonic aura, one can reasonably suspect that it is related to the 'Genting Demon Palace'. This is not a purely secular matter. I can still ask Venerable Liuli to take action if I personally come forward. Even if the two real people of the royal family know Nothing to say."

"Your Excellency asked me to replace Shen Sanlang tonight, but these more than 2000 miles... how should I get there?"

Wouldn't the goal be too big if he took the jade plate flying machine of Master Wanfa?

Yan Tianying said: "I asked Venerable Liuli for a 'God's Talisman'."

He took out a jade talisman engraved with the statue of Liuli Bodhisattva, "The Venerable Liuli personally blessed a 'Shenzutong', which must be used within twelve hours, and can only be used once. However, as far as the heart is concerned, within three thousand miles , everywhere."

Shen Lang took the lavender jade talisman and felt that the jade talisman was warm to the touch. It felt exactly the same as his exorcism seal made from "thousand-year chalcedony". He couldn't help saying in surprise:
"This talisman is also made of thousand-year-old chalcedony?"

Yan Tianying nodded:

"If it weren't for the millennium chalcedony, it wouldn't be enough to carry Venerable Liuli's supernatural power. You don't have to feel sorry. This is just a little leftover after refining the exorcism jade seal that day. For Venerable Liuli , considered waste utilization.”

After a pause, he solemnly said:
"After arriving at Gufeng Mansion, you have to rely on your own discretion for all actions. We must keep an eye on other suspected Daeshen, and we must not act rashly. But you can also rest assured that with us watching, there will be no Daeshen behind the scenes. Opportunity to do it yourself.”

Shen Lang nodded in agreement, and couldn't help asking:

"Miss Mu, she...will not be in danger now, will she?"

Yan Tianying smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Xiaomu's Tiangang fighting spirit was taught by me personally. I know what she is capable of. Besides, she is traveling far away. You don't think I didn't give her a baby to save her life, do you?"

Shen Lang thinks about it, Mu Qingxue is less than 22 years old, and already has a third-rank cultivation, and there are few masters in the God Catch Hall. No matter how much Yan Tianying pays attention to Mu Qingxue, a peerless genius with a strong character and a high heart Not too much.

He, Shen Lang, is different because of his youthful spirit and amazing talent, is he highly valued by Yan Tianying?
Immediately, he bowed to Yan Tianying:
"The subordinate has no doubts. I don't know when to start action?"

Yan Tianying waved his hand:

"Don't worry, it's time for dinner. Shen Sanlang's noodle restaurant should be busy. You have to wait for another hour. You can go to him after the noodle restaurant closes. In addition, Master Wanfa is refining a talisman for you. It will take another hour to finish. You should have a meal here and wait for a while."

Hearing this, Shen Lang suddenly remembered something:
"Master Yan, I don't know how to make noodles, but if I open a noodle restaurant in place of Shen Sanlang, will it be a secret?"

Yan Tianying smiled confidently:
"Don't worry, we've thought of this a long time ago. The talisman refined by Master Wanfa is for this purpose. Alright, let's go to the dining hall to eat first, and rest for a while, and wait for Master Wanfa to bring the talisman over."

"Master Yan, wait a minute, I still have a gift for you."

Without waiting for Yan Tianying's response, he quickly walked out the door, and soon came in again with a big pottery basin in his arms.

Seeing a five-foot-high sapling growing in the big clay pot, Yan Tianying smiled and said:
"Send me a potted plant? Xiao Shen, I really dare to accept this gift from you..."

As soon as he said this, he suddenly smelled a seductive fragrance, which made him salivate.Surprised, Yan Tianying concentrated his eyes and took a closer look, and found that the bark of the young sapling had faint scale-like lines.

With a thought in his heart, Yan Tianying raised his right hand, and a little white light burst out from his fingertips, illuminating the entire room.

Under the white light, the scale-like lines on the bark of the young sapling became more conspicuous, and even reflected gorgeous crystal light, making it look like it was covered with a layer of crystal scales.

Look at those branches again. At the end of each horizontal branch, there are five forks, and there are five small branches of different lengths that bend upwards.Excluding the leaves, looking only at the branches, they faintly look like dragon claws with five fingers facing the sky, making a grasping shape.

Yan Tianying was shocked immediately:
"Ichthyosaur wood?"

Shen Lang smiled and praised:

"Master Yan has good eyesight. This ichthyosaur sapling is exactly the gift I want to give to Master Yan and Daoist Wanfa. Thank you for your help in the spider mother incident and my further study in the Taoist academy."

Yan Tianying frowned and said:

"Xiao Shen, do you know how precious the fish wood dragon is? No matter warriors, monks, or even human beings or monsters, they can use the fish dragon wood to practice. The panacea made from the fish dragon wood is the most important thing for a first-rank Dazheng. , great masters are effective. It is also the best spiritual material for refining weapons.

"Because it has such a wide range of applications, when the heroes fought for hegemony at the end of the previous dynasty, this spirit tree was harvested and disappeared from the world. Now only two royal family masters have two pieces of ichthyosaurs that have been treasured since the founding of the country to the present. Wood aniseed. Xiao Shen, you give me a living tree now..."

"Master Yan, listen to me first."

Shen Lang interrupted Yan Tianying's conversation:
"I'm really not bribing the superior. Sending you and Master Wanfa this little sapling is firstly to thank the adults and the real people for their help to me, and secondly, I also have something to ask for. Of course, I am not asking the adults to act privately for me. I want to ask Daoist Wanfa to help me refine a panacea."

He took out the prescription of "Fish Dragon Pill" and put it on Yan Tianying's table:
"It's this kind of panacea. In addition to Yulongmu as the main medicine, it also needs several other kinds of natural materials and earthly treasures as auxiliary medicines. I don't have the other kinds of natural materials and earthly treasures. I can only ask Wanfa Daoist for help. I match.

"So you see, my Ichthyosaurus sapling is completely exchanged for those precious natural materials and earthly treasures, and the reward for asking Daoist Wanfa to help me make alchemy. I didn't ask the adults to follow the law for me. It can't be considered a bribe, can it?"

Yan Tianying picked up the prescription and took a look, only to see that the several supplementary medicines listed on the prescription were considered natural treasures, but their value could not be compared with a living ichthyosaur tree sapling.

Even with the reward of Daoist Wanfa, this Yulongmu sapling is really too precious.

While hesitating, Shen Lang said again:
"Master Yan, this fish-dragon tree is in my hands. Apart from chewing the leaves, I really can't give full play to its magical effect. It's a bit of a waste. , in order to maximize its effect.

"In this way, you treat it as the public property of our Shenchuitang. All the headhunters of Shenchuitang can enjoy all kinds of spiritual materials produced by Yulongmu. It's no problem, right?"

Only then did Yan Tianying smile:
"It's okay to treat it as the public property of Shenchoutang. Then I will thank you on behalf of my colleagues."

Shen Lang smiled and said:

"Master Yan is too serious. In addition, I have special breeding methods. If I have time in the future, I can also help cultivate Yumulong to make it grow faster."

"Xiao Shen, you have a heart."

Yan Tianying didn't ask him where he got the Ichthyosaurus saplings, and he didn't even ask him what his special breeding method was - which Tianjiao didn't have any adventures or secrets?If you really want to get to the bottom of it, if you want to control everything, it will only make the arrogances alienated.

After all, every Tianjiao has a great personality.The more celestial you are, the more rebellious and unruly you are.

There has never been a true arrogance, who is willing to be controlled by others.

"I'll give the prescription to Yuzhen. When you come back from this mission, you should be able to receive the first panacea."

Yan Tianying put away the prescription, put it in his arms, and asked Shen Lang to go to the dining hall to eat:
"I have to guard this sapling until Yuzhen comes over and transplant it into her secret realm of Qiankun. I don't worry about keeping it outside. If the two royals know about it, they will definitely have bad ideas..."

So Shen Lang bid farewell to Yan Tianying, and went to the cafeteria to have a working meal.

After a full meal, Shen Lang went to a side room to meditate and adjust his breath, and checked his own strength and equipment by the way.

Xiaoyu has been promoted to the third stage, his strength has skyrocketed, and his ability is comparable to that of a fourth-rank warrior.

When Xiaogu and Xiaoya were retreating in the small single room of the Sutra Library, they also practiced hard in the Dianjingbi space, and their strength improved greatly.

Xiao Zhao, on the other hand, clearly said that he would only sleep for a few days, but it has been more than a month and he still hasn't woken up.

However, the aura on it is increasing day by day, and it feels like there is a sign of being promoted to the third level without using the emperor's liquid.

In terms of weapons and equipment, golden silkworm soft armor and crocodile silk soft armor are worn close to the body, two fourth-grade swords, and a pair of fourth-grade bows are all well maintained in the space.

There is also the "triangular broken copper piece" that has eaten up the starlight silver ingots, and it is also in a fully charged state, ready to strike a powerful blow at any time.

Treasures such as talismans, except for a "Magic Exorcism Seal", a jade pendant that can bless the spell of "All Beings" three times, and the "God's Walking Talisman" that has just arrived and has a limited shelf life, all other talismans have been consumed. No additions for now.

But the talisman that Daoist Wanfa is refining should have a life-saving effect.

Cultivation aspect.

As Xiaoyu was promoted to the third level, the fourth level of Shen Lang's Monster Taming Art had also been fully cultivated, and the cultivation progress reached 200/200, but it was not like the previous levels, once the progress was full, it would automatically be promoted to the next level.

According to the information delivered by "Little Moon", in order to advance from the fourth level of the Monster Taming Art to the fifth level, in addition to meeting the progress of cultivation, another condition must be met, which is to have three little monsters of the third level at the same time.

Now Shen Lang only has Xiaoyu and a third-level little demon, and two more little demons need to be promoted to the third level before the monster taming formula can break through and advance to the fifth level.

"Well, maybe it's not just Xiaoyu, but a little monster of the Three Realms."

Shen Lang stroked his chin and muttered to himself:

"There's also a spider spirit who keeps messing with me..."

Well, Shen Lang wasn't sure about the true state of the "spider spirit", so he didn't expect too much from it, and excluded it for the time being.

"In this mission, no matter what, it's too late to advance to the fifth level and achieve a fifth-level spell. It's a pity that the fifth-level spell can cultivate the 'King Kong Immortal Body', and the armor can be stacked to the point of insanity..."

Shen Lang shook his head regretfully:
"In terms of martial arts, the internal strength is still not good enough, and I can't be promoted to the level of internal strength and external release... But after returning from this mission, I should be able to make rapid progress again with the Fish Dragon Pill."

After adjusting breath in the wing room for more than half an hour, Yan Tianying sent someone to summon Shen Lang.

Shen Lang hurried over and saw that Master Wanfa had arrived, but the ichthyosaur sapling had disappeared, as if it had been taken away by Master Wanfa.

Seeing Shen Lang, Master Wan Fa smiled at him, nodded and said:
"Xiao Shen has a heart. I will help you refine a batch of 'Fish Dragon Pill' as soon as possible, and you will see it when you come back from this mission."

Shen Lang clasped his fists and raised his hands: "Thank you, Daoist!"

Master Wanfa took out something and handed it to Shen Lang.

It was a palm-sized silver net, which looked familiar. After thinking about it for a while, Shen Lang remembered that when he first crossed over, he seemed to have been caught by a similar net once.

"This is a specially strengthened 'live net', which can capture fourth-rank early-stage fighters."

Master Wanfa explained:
"If you use this net to deal with Shen Sanlang, you can trap him in the net and make him fall into a coma on the spot. This net can maintain life and make people in the net look like hibernating snakes, even if they don't eat or drink for a month or two, Survival is also guaranteed.

"After trapping Shen Sanlang in the net, don't kill him, don't let him go, just trap him in the net and hide him in a secret place. Because you will need this thing next..."

She took out another three-inch long and one-inch wide silk talisman that seemed to be woven with gold thread:

"This is the 'Life Replacement Talisman', you take a drop of blood from Shen Sanlang's eyebrows, and then take a drop of blood from his earlobes on both sides, and a drop of blood from his heart, all dripped on this talisman.

"Afterwards, this talisman will be activated by itself, allowing you to replace Shen Sanlang's fate, which can last for a month. Using this to cooperate with the 'Phenomenon of All Beings' spell to disguise, even a first-rank Daoist, if you don't calculate your fate in person, you will not be able to see through it your disguise.

"During this period, you can still have most of Shen Sanlang's abilities. Not only martial arts, but also his life skills, such as making ramen, etc., you can instantly have them, and you are not inferior to Shen Sanlang himself. Substitute instinct into Shen Sanlang's usual style.

"In addition, this life talisman can also die for you once. Once you encounter a fatal attack, the attack will be transferred to the living Shen Sanlang, and you will be randomly teleported thousands of feet away.

"Because of this, it is necessary to ensure that Shen Sanlang survives. If he dies, all the effects of this talisman will be invalid."

After listening to her explanation, Shen Lang couldn't help asking:
"Such a powerful French net and magic talisman must consume precious materials, right?"

Master Wanfa smiled and said:

"They are all refined from the heavenly materials and earthly treasures obtained from Yunding Demon Palace. However, the meaning of the existence of spiritual materials is to consume them. If they are just kept for collection and not used, what do we need them for?"

Shen Lang knew that Master Wanfa could use the natural materials and earthly treasures from Yunding Demon Palace to refine such treasures for him, not only for investigating the case, but also because of the importance he attached to him.

Otherwise, it would be enough to have the "Persons of All Beings" disguised and disguised, why would there be a need to refine a "life-catching net" and a "surrogate talisman"?
At that moment, Shen Lang put away the legal net and the magic talisman, and bowed to Daoist Wanfa and Yan Tianying:
"Master Yan, Master Chang, this subordinate will definitely live up to his mission!"

Yan Tianying raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder:

"Proceed with caution and safety first."

Afterwards, Shen Lang took out the "God's Amulet" and said to the two of them:
"Then I will start to act!"

Yan Tianying also waved his hand decisively:

"Go ahead. We'll keep an eye on the other real people."

With a thought, Shen Lang poured spiritual power into it, activated the magic amulet, and disappeared out of thin air in a flash.

After Shen Lang disappeared.

Master Wanfa glanced at Yan Tianying's expression, and said:

"Are you worried about them?"

Yan Tianying shook his head:

"I'm not worried about them. Although Xiao Mu is a bit reckless, she is powerful and has life-saving treasures. Xiao Shen is alert and has a 'surrogate talisman'. Venerable Liuli teamed up to refine it, and it will have miraculous effects at the critical moment of life and death. As long as you keep an eye on the first-rank Dazhengs, their safety will not be worrying."

Daoist Wanfa was puzzled and said:
"Then why are you still so worried?"

Yan Tianying sighed:
"Monsters appear frequently, and demonic miasmas emerge... The seemingly prosperous Da Chu is actually sitting on the crater of a volcano..."

Master Wanfa chuckled lightly:
"So what? Da Chu is not our family. You have done your best for Da Chu these years, and you have done everything you can. What does it matter to you if the emperor's nobles and high-ranking officials compete for prostitution? As long as you are willing, You can escape from the outside world at any time, even if the world is in chaos and the Great Chu collapses, how can I get you?"

Yan Tianying secretly sighed inwardly, Master Wanfa actually has some "genius disease".

She is cold and aloof, her eyes are over the top, she only treats peerless geniuses like Mu Qingxue and Shen Lang differently, and it is difficult to empathize with ordinary people.

Without his fetters, it would be impossible for Master Wanfa to pay so much for Shenchuitang.

Of course, Yan Tianying wouldn't go straight to the point, instead he had to coax her a little bit, reaching out to hold her soft hand:

"I can detach myself at any time, but am I waiting for you? When you detach, I will detach. Before that... I will do more things for the people of the East, so I can have a clear conscience..."

……

night.

Shen Sanlang closed the door of the restaurant, finished his day's work, and returned to the backyard house.

As soon as he opened the door and entered the house, a large silver net fell from the beam, wrapping him tightly from head to toe.

Shen Sanlang was startled, and just about to break free from the net with a burst of true energy, but a burst of drowsiness suddenly hit him, causing him to fall to the ground, and fell into a deep sleep in an instant.

Then, a slender, crystal white bone palm "jumped" off the beam.

This small bone hand uses the second index finger as a leg, and the thumb, ring finger, and little finger are clasped with a bald writing brush. After landing, it walks around the sleeping Shen Sanlang in the net. Then emerge out of thin air.

It was Shen Lang.

"Good job!"

Shen Lang held up the slender bone hand, praised it with a smile, and took it back into the space.

Then, he took a look at Shen Sanlang in the "Live Net", took out a silver needle, pierced Shen Sanlang's eyebrows, earlobes on both sides, and heart through the mesh, took a drop of blood each, and smeared it on the "surrogate talisman".

Soon, the life-surrogate talisman that had absorbed four drops of blood ignited spontaneously without fire, turning into a pale golden light of starlight, sinking into the center of Shen Lang's eyebrows.

A strange feeling rushed into Shen Lang's heart instantly.

He only felt that he had become another person in an instant, and everything from the time he remembered to the present flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would be schizophrenic at this moment, and the second personality "Shen Sanlang" would be derived.

However, the spiritual seeds condensed by Shen Lang's practice of "Demon Taming Art" are not even afraid of magic tools for cleaning memory, and now that he has the "Magic Exorcism Seal" to suppress the primordial spirit, of course the spirit will not be so fragile——

Daoist Wanfa dared to give him a "life replacement talisman", and it was precisely because of the treasure of exorcising the magic seal, that he would not be confused by other people's life experiences when he came up with a replacement for someone else's life, and really regarded himself as someone else. dragon.

Shen Lang quickly came to his senses, pulled away from his emotions, kept to his heart, and watched those revolving memory pictures from the perspective of a bystander.

He was expecting to see the kidnapper organization from Shen Sanlang's memory.

But I didn't expect that many of the memories were very vague, like looking at flowers in a fog, or like being separated by a layer of frosted glass covered with water vapor, so I couldn't see clearly.

Don't say who Shen Sanlang's superior is, even who his accomplices are, and who he has kidnapped, he can't see clearly clearly.

"It seems that some kind of restriction has been placed in this person's mind! Fortunately, there are lessons learned from Mr. Liao and 'Ding Hao', so they didn't rashly use the 'Curse of Crossing People' to brainwash him. Otherwise, the restriction will be triggered and Shen Sanlang will be killed. The surrogate is also useless!"

Shen Lang secretly rejoiced.

At this time, another indescribable wonderful feeling emerged from the body.

As if in a flash, some muscle memory, some virtuosity.

For example, making ramen...

Not only that, he also acquired a martial skill that he had never practiced before, and even under the magical effect of the "surrogate talisman", he was able to display Shen Sanlang's fourth-rank entry-level zhenqi.

And the source of this true energy seems to be Shen Sanlang.In other words, Shen Lang urged his true energy to make moves, and what was consumed was the true energy in Shen Sanlang's dantian who was sleeping in the net.

"The surrogate is really magical!"

Shen Lang secretly sighed:

"The ability of a first-rank Dazheng is really amazing, mysterious and mysterious..."

In my heart, I became more and more yearning for the realm of the first-grade law cultivation.

The surrogate has already taken effect, the next step is to dress up as Shen Sanlang and wait patiently.

As for where to hide Shen Sanlang, that is of course a bit of space.

To ensure his survival, but also to ensure that his hiding is secret enough, where in the world is there a more suitable place than the space of the fine brush?

Anyway, this guy will always be in a comatose state, and he will definitely be killed afterwards, so there is no need to worry about him revealing the secrets of the space.

At that moment, Shen Lang waved his hand and collected Shen Sanlang in the net into some Jingbi space, watched the little demons carefully, then took out the jade talisman presented by Venerable Liuli, activated the spell of "All Beings", and changed his mind as soon as he moved his mind. He became a fat man with a round face, big earlobes, and dough balls like Maitreya Buddha.

He has "experienced" Shen Sanlang's life, and he is already familiar with his appearance and physical characteristics, so it is easy to disguise his appearance.

Even the tone of speech, the style of dealing with people and things, even the posture and rhythm of walking, sitting and lying, and even micro-expressions and small movements, are exactly the same as Shen Sanlang.

No matter how familiar Shen Sanlang is now, it is impossible to see through Shen Lang's disguise.

In other words, Shen Sanlang originally had two older brothers, but they died prematurely before they lived past the age of seven.His parents also died of illness two years ago. The 28-year-old Shen Sanlang is also unmarried. He has been single and runs a noodle restaurant by himself.

This is also convenient for Shen Lang.

After changing his body shape and appearance, Shen Lang walked around the room twice, came to the bedroom by familiar way, went to the closet, took out a set of clothes and changed.

Then I went to the kitchen and tried to make a bowl of ramen.

The technique is really skillful, the noodles are uniform in thickness, flexible and chewy, and the prepared sauce is also very delicious, which makes people very satisfied.

"It's a pity that there is no chili. Otherwise, if you make a bowl of spicy oil, the noodles will be more enjoyable."

After Shen Lang finished eating the ramen he made, he thought to himself that this skill is really good, and he must really learn this skill during the period of replacing Shen Sanlang.In this way, even if the "surrogate" fails, you can still make delicious ramen by yourself.

The identity has been settled, and the craftsmanship is fine. The next step is to operate the noodle shop according to Shen Sanlang's original life rhythm, and wait patiently.

Shen Lang originally thought that this time, he might have to wait for a long time before the change.

After all, Shen Sanlang only made a vote a few days ago, so he had to stay dormant for a while.

Unexpectedly, on the third day of pretending to be Shen Sanlang, a new "business" came to the door.

this evening.

Shen Lang closed the door of the upper hall, ended his day's work, and returned to the backyard house with the oil lamp in his hand. He just opened the door and entered the house when he suddenly stopped in his tracks, feeling turmoil in his heart.

There were people in the room.

In the main room, a man in black wearing a crying mask was sitting motionless on a chair.

But before seeing this person, Shen Lang didn't notice the slightest aura, and he didn't have any premonition in his spiritual sense. He didn't realize the existence of the man in black until he saw the man in black with his naked eyes.

Fortunately, he has rich undercover experience and is mentally prepared for all kinds of accidents that may occur, so although he was slightly surprised in his heart, he remained calm on his face, as if he had known this before and was not surprised.

He should really "see it with no surprises".

Because when he saw the man in black, in Shen Lang's "memory", a blurry picture suddenly became clear.

It was also the same time, the same place, and the same man in black, sitting opposite him, gave him instructions in unidentifiable male and female voices.

Shen Lang immediately knew that the man in black was Shen Sanlang's contact person, and he even "remembered" his code name.

At that moment, Shen Lang calmly made the same movements as the real Shen Sanlang—closed the door with his backhand, hung the oil lamp on the wall, took a few steps forward, hung his hands over his heart, made a strange seal, and bowed to the man in black With a salute, he solemnly said:
"Meet the Messenger of the Night Cry."

The black-clothed man codenamed "Night Crying" remained motionless, the crying face mask was facing Shen Lang, the deep black pupils under the mask were calm and unwavering, and said lightly with the indistinguishable voice in "memory":

"The holy god's birthday is approaching, and more tributes are needed. The new goal has been determined, you should prepare and act immediately. The partners this time are still the two last time."

As he said that, he took out a paper bag, held it between his fingers and tossed it lightly, and the paper bag spun and flew flat in front of Shen Lang.

Shen Lang raised his hand to take the paper bag, opened it and took out a piece of kraft paper, and saw a portrait of a beautiful woman drawn in colored ink on it, she was a heroine who looked to be only in her twenties, with a long sword in her arms and a sassy smile.

"Gu Hongye is 21 years old, a native of Qingyang Mansion, a fourth-rank entry-level cultivation, and excellent swordsmanship. He is the most outstanding talented swordsman of the younger generation in Qingyang Mansion. One-on-one, the three of you are no match for her. But three One-to-one, she is not your opponent if you do mental calculations or not."

The man in black cried at night and said lightly:
"She is traveling to the capital to make friends with martial arts and prove her swordsmanship. At this time, she is staying at the Wanzipo Station, which is [-] miles away from the capital city. Apart from Gu Hongye, there are no other masters in the station. You can play freely .”

Shen Lang cupped his hands and said in a deep voice:
"The envoy can rest assured that his subordinates are determined to live up to their mission."

"Be sure to arrive at the Wanzipo post station within an hour. After the task is completed, send the target to the old place. The old rules, after the task is completed, each go home, and no inquiring and discussing are allowed."

"Yes, messenger."

After issuing the task, the figure of the man in black crying at night suddenly drifted away, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.That feeling, as if he was a human form formed by clouds and mist, and when the wind blows, it will disperse.

Seeing this scene, Shen Lang instantly understood that the man in black crying at night was not a real person at all, but just a projection, an illusion or something like that.

"It's no wonder that there is no breath, spiritual sense and no response... Although this phantom can speak, it is more agile than my water moon phantom, but it does not exist physically. Apart from sending messages, I am afraid it has no other abilities."

Shen Lang thought to himself:

"However, to be able to use this kind of projection illusion, the deity of the man in black crying at night should be a high-level Dharma cultivator."

At this time, another blurry image in Shen Lang's mind became clear again.

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully, followed the picture in his "memory", came to the bedroom familiarly, pushed open the closet, and pressed lightly somewhere on the wall.

Click!

It was the wall that was pressed, but the sound came from the threshold.

Shen Lang looked sideways at the threshold of the bedroom without any surprise, and saw a hidden compartment popped up on the threshold, inside which was a pair of bronze grimace masks, and a piece of black silk was pressed under the mask.

In the past, he took out the mask and shook off the black silk, but it turned out to be a black cloak without any markings.

Shen Lang put on the mask, put the cloak on his body, reset the hidden compartment, left the room, performed lightness kung fu and walked out of the backyard, and quickly merged into the night.

An hour later, the midnight is approaching.

Outside Wanzipo post station, in a small forest.

Shen Lang fell silent, and slowly walked into the forest. At a glance, he saw two men in black wearing the same bronze ghost mask and a black cloak.

These two men in black sat on a dead tree stump with their chin resting on their hands, while the other leaned against a big tree with their arms around their chests.

Seeing these two men in black, Shen Lang immediately "remembered" their code names, one was "Zombie" and the other was "Wood".As for Shen Sanlang...

"Fatty, you're late."

The man in black, codenamed "Wood" with his back against the big tree, said in a hoarse voice that was hard to distinguish:

Shen Lang also said lightly in the thick voice that Shen Sanlang usually disguised:

"It's not too late, the time is just right."

The man in black, codenamed "Zombie", who was sitting on a dead tree stump stood up:
"Since everyone has arrived, let's do it immediately, so as not to have long nights and dreams. Fatty, it's your turn to take the lead this time."

Shen Lang nodded, took the lead, and walked towards the post station.

Zombie and Wood followed him from left to right, keeping a distance of three feet from him.

While walking, Shen Lang "recalls" several scenes again.

It was also night, and it was also the woods. Three men in black, including Shen Sanlang, were galloping through the forest, chasing a woman in front of her in a fiery red dress with a slender waist, long legs, and long flying hair.

This time it was the man in black named "Zombie".

His qinggong is very strange, every time he lands on both soles of his feet at the same time, he also takes off both feet at the same time when he jumps, without even bending his knees, he really looks like a zombie.

Although his movement was weird and his posture was awkward, the "zombie" flew extremely fast, and within a few vertical leaps, he was only three feet away from the fleeing woman in red.

Suddenly, the woman in the red shirt turned around abruptly, leaped up, raised her long legs high above her head, screamed sharply, and slashed at the "zombie" with one leg like a big axe.

The "zombie" snorted coldly, crossed his arms to block, and there was a loud bang. The woman in the red shirt slammed on the arm of the "zombie" fiercely with his heel, causing him to sink suddenly, and his legs sank half a foot into the soil. more than enough.

Before the girl in red landed on the ground, she leaned into the air and pulled out her other long leg like a whip, blasting it towards the "zombie"'s cheek.

The "zombie" smiled, swung his arm, and bumped head-on into her long legs.

There was another loud bang, and the "zombie" grunted, and his elbow joint cracked, and he was dislocated by the shock.The red-shirted woman also fell backwards and slammed into a big tree hard, sending sawdust flying around the big tree and breaking it in half.

At this time, Shen Sanlang who rushed from behind had already jumped up, his obese body was like a big cat pouncing on food, he flew several feet in the air, and with a push of both palms, he slammed towards the woman in red.

When the palms were released, the skin of his palms became as red as cinnabar, and the fat palms swelled several times, becoming like two thick red grinding discs.

It is the evil martial art "Red Devil Hand" practiced by Shen Sanlang.

The red shirt girl who just landed couldn't dodge, but she didn't seem to want to dodge either, her red lips were tightly pursed, her brows were erect, she raised her slender white palms, and pushed hard against the pair of red, thick, fat hands. .

When the palm was released, her palm turned red, as if covered with a layer of red flames.

Boom!

Amidst thunderous explosions, the four palms collided fiercely, and a crimson air wave visible to the naked eye erupted from the place where the four palms collided, and flew out in all directions, knocking down and breaking all the trees and trees within two feet around the two of them.

Where some trees were broken, there were scorched marks of flames; other stubble stubbles seemed to be corroded by poison, sizzling, emitting green smoke, and dripping out muddy yellow juice.

The upper body of the red-shirted woman trembled violently, bleeding came from the corner of her mouth, her feet sank to her ankles, but she didn't take a single step back.Shen Sanlang laughed wildly, and was about to stimulate the poisonous qi of the "Red Demon Hand" again, when the red-shirted woman suddenly raised her head, and hit Shen Sanlang hard on the forehead with a head hammer.

Shen Sanlang's wild laughter stopped abruptly, the bronze mask was dented by the impact, and he flew backwards with a muffled grunt.

The red shirt woman's forehead was also dripping with blood, but her eyes were still sharp, and she even parted the corners of her mouth, revealing blood-stained white teeth, and burst into a mad and wicked smile. The tattered sleeves were torn off, revealing a pair of arms that looked slender and fair, but had sharp lines.

After that, she stretched out her slender palm, hooked her fingers at the three men in black, and said contemptuously:

"Come on the three of you together!"

The memory screen ends here.

This was the last "hunt" by Shen Sanlang and others.

The woman in the red shirt who was hunted down was obviously the Mu Qingxue who led away the pursuers after rescuing the chivalrous girl.

To be honest, Shen Lang really didn't connect her with Mu Qingxue when he first saw the woman in the red shirt.

That red shirt woman's skin is as white as snow and delicate as jade.

But her facial features are more rigid than the sweet Mu Qingxue, her two eyebrows are like two flying swords, flying obliquely into her temples.His eyes were extremely sharp, with a strange madness.

If he hadn't known about Mu Qingxue's actions, Shen Lang would have been unable to believe that the fiery, violent and evil woman in red shirt and the sweet and cold Mu Qingxue would be the same person.

"However, after confirming that she is Mu Qingxue, when I think about it carefully, apart from the difference in temperament, the two are indeed somewhat similar in facial features... It feels like Mu Qingxue's original appearance has been sharpened. This kind of Yi Rong... Well, if you don't know her identity in advance, you really can't recognize her."

While "reminiscing" and thinking all the way, the three of them had already arrived outside the wall of the post station.

Shen Lang, who was leading the charge, jumped up, and was about to cross the wall directly, when suddenly his heart moved, his toes moved a little to the top of the wall, and his figure rose by more than a foot.

At the same time, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and a sword light, like lightning in a rainy night, pierced his clothes and stabbed his chest with a bang.

If he hadn't temporarily tapped his foot on the top of the wall, then pulled his body up and rushed forward, the sword would have pierced his throat.

Shen Lang was hit by a sword in his chest, and with a scream, his fat body immediately fell backwards.

The zombies and Mu Mu who were three feet away behind him were startled slightly, but they didn't back away, instead, they sped up their speed and rushed forward.
