One pound of meat equals one attribute point.

Chapter 49 Demon Servant
"It's getting dark. We need to find a place to rest for the night." Su Heng suggested as he watched the sun gradually setting over the mountain.

"Okay." Su Li said that she had no problem.

After running around for more than three days, she did feel a little tired.

After searching around, there were no hotels or post stations around, so Su Heng and his group could only move forward. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they were lucky this time, as there was an abandoned land temple.

Half of the land temple's structure collapsed, while the right half was hung with dust and cobwebs.

Bright moonlight was shining through the hole in the roof.

One of the God of Land's arms disappeared, and the other arm stretched forward.

Su Heng stretched out his hand and chopped.

Click!

He also broke off the only remaining arm, chopped it into pieces of appropriate size, and threw it to Su Li.

"I'm going to take a walk outside to see if there's any danger." Su Heng said, "And I'll grab something to roast and eat."

"The second half of the sentence is the most important," Su Li said with a teasing smile.

During the days of traveling with Su Heng, Su Li gradually had a clear understanding of her younger brother's horrific appetite.

"Gululu!"

There was a growling sound from Su Li's stomach.

The smile on her face froze, slowly turned red, and she covered her mouth with her hand.

"Hurry up!" Su Li hit Su Heng on the waist with his elbow. The latter sighed, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.

Wow!
The sound of flowing stream came from not far away.

The tranquil stream reflects the moonlight, and a little deer with beautiful patterns is drinking water.

The deer's eyes are alert and its ears are trembling slightly, always paying attention to the movements around it.

Swish!
A sound of breaking air suddenly came.

The little deer raised its head suddenly and leaped forward.

Unfortunately, he was still a step too slow, and a stone hit the deer's forehead accurately.

The deer's head exploded directly, half of its brain disappeared into thin air, and its crown flew more than ten meters away, with brain matter mixed with blood flowing out.

"Not bad!"

Su Heng had a smile on his face, and his tall and burly body appeared beside the deer.

Carrying the little deer, whose limbs were still twitching, on his shoulders, Su Heng turned around and was about to leave to reunite with his sister.

But he had only taken a few steps forward.

Su Heng stopped.

His brows furrowed slightly, his nose twitched, and he could vaguely smell the stench of a corpse in the air.

"This is..." It is not surprising to see rotting corpses in the forest. What is strange is that there is a subtle smell of demons mixed in with the stench.

"There are so many demons in the world now, let's go and take a look first."

Su Heng was shocked.

He tapped the ground with his toes, and his whole body turned into a black light, parting the bushes in front of him and rushing towards the direction where the smell came from.

……

At the same time, there was a big hole in the land temple.

Su Li and Xiao Qing had just lit the bonfire when they heard footsteps coming from outside.

Su Li looked up with a wary look on her face.

In the moonlight outside the door, two figures, a man and a woman, walked slowly towards them.

Both of them were young, in their twenties. The girl had a graceful figure, charming eyes, and a tight purple dress that outlined her plump chest. The boy also had red lips and white teeth, a handsome face, and was dressed like a pale scholar.

"Ladies, could you please let us, my sister and I, take a rest here for a while?" The woman stopped and took the initiative to speak.

"We have some dried meat here, we can share it with you." The man in white said. Su Li did not rush to answer.

Instead, he took out the demon-hunting plate and injected a little strength into it. When he saw that there was no reaction, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's fate that we meet. Don't be polite." Su Li nodded implicitly and moved aside.

"Thank you, sister." The purple-clothed woman thanked in a gentle voice.

The two sat down.

The handsome man who looked like a scholar took out the pickled dried meat from his bag and handed it to Su Li and Xiaoqing.

"No need, we just ate." Su Li shook his head and refused without thinking.

She had some favorable impression of these two people, but she still had to be wary.

Young people don't force it.

The firewood crackled in the campfire, and several people were grilling and chatting.

During the conversation, Su Li learned the names of the siblings.

The elder sister is called Xu Ziyi, and the younger brother is Xu Baixia. Their family suddenly encountered a change, and this time they went to Baihua County to seek refuge with a distant relative.

"Poor me, a family of thirty people, everything happened overnight...ah." Xu Ziyi's face was full of sorrow.

As he spoke, he sighed continuously, his eyes turned slightly red, and crystal tears flowed down.

"My condolences, sister." Su Li was moved by her sincere feelings and said a few words of comfort. Su Li then asked, "I wonder what happened to your family? Was it a robbery or something else?"

"Not robbers, but..."

Xu Ziyi glanced around and lowered her voice, "I heard from an old Taoist priest passing by that it was a demon."

"demon!?"

Hearing this word, Su Li suddenly became alert, "Could it be that there really are demons in this world?"

"This... who knows?" Xu Ziyi said sadly.

She shook her head, thinking back to what had happened. She was obviously very sad. She didn't say anything else, but just sobbed with her head down, her shoulders shaking.

Su Li was curious, but was too embarrassed to ask any more questions, and the atmosphere fell silent for a while.

"It's really amazing that you two women can travel the world on your own." Xu Baixia looked at the sword placed next to Su Li and spoke meaningfully.

"I just learned some tricks from a master for two years." Su Li answered vaguely.

At this time, she was wondering why Su Heng hadn't come back yet.

Could it be that some unexpected situation occurred?

but……

It shouldn't be.

Su Heng has monstrous strength. Even if he really encounters a monster in the mountains, he will definitely not be the one who is unlucky.

Just as Su Li frowned and thought, feeling a little worried.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew outside, and the trees on both sides rustled. Dark clouds rolled in, blocking the moonlight, and in the faint firelight, blurry human figures appeared out of thin air.

Su Li's delicate eyebrows slowly raised, "Who!"

She stood up suddenly, sword in hand.

"Xu Ziyi, Xu Baixia, do you really think you two can get away?" A cold voice came, "Hand over the Tianluo Book, and I can let you die more painlessly!"

A thin man wearing a bamboo hat slowly walked into the door of the dilapidated land temple.

The man's face was wrapped in white cloth, which had been soaked in pus and turned yellow-brown, leaving only his two eyes exposed.

The man entered the temple.

A strong stench of rotting corpses wafted out, as if it had become substantial, choking people and making it difficult to breathe.

"Demon!?" Su Li was shocked, but quickly figured it out, "No, it should be a demon servant! His target is not me, but the two people beside him."
