Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Chapter 60 [060] Kill Gu Zheng!
thump~
The girl's body, which had lost the demon's attachment, fell straight to the ground with an extremely stiff body, making a heavy sound.

Shi Huaiying: "..."

He stood there stupidly with a dazed look on his face, his eyes wide open, staring straight at the translucent shadow trapped in mid-air.

When the phantom struggled to manifest, its shape could be clearly seen. Its outline was similar to that of a human, but it had six...

No, eight arms!

The hair is also thick and long, like little snakes, constantly twisting.

Is this the human soul?

This is clearly a demon!

And this demon had just escaped from his daughter's body...

"..." Shi Huaiying opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't speak.

He lowered his head stiffly and looked at his daughter's corpse on the ground.

The cold vitality of the previous moment disappeared without a trace, and the corpse that appeared now was stiff all over, with corpse spots and a foul smell emanating.

"..."

puff~
After being stunned for a while, Shi Huaiying sat down on the ground and burst into tears.

"I don't want to do that either! I just miss my daughter so much, I... woooo ...

Shi Huaiying sat on the ground in a humiliating manner, crying and shouting, with tears and snot streaming down his face.

“……”Sun Zhenyao came back to his senses and turned around silently.

Deep down, I felt relieved.

Gu Zhengxian forced the demon out of his body, which would undoubtedly ease the relationship.

Zhang Boshong and Yan Hongxue were amazed.

I was amazed at Gu Zheng's ability to control himself.

With that previous blow, Zhang Boshong was able to make a similar cut, but he couldn't retract it.

This kind of virtual slash is obviously aimed at forcing the demons, so it must be both powerful and concealed.

If you can't control it, the result will be your head chopped off.

……

"Tsk~!"

The Sky Frost Blade surged magically, piercing through the struggling shadow.

The screaming demon suddenly stopped twisting, revealing a lavender body, eight arms, and a head full of snake hair.

Under the gaze of everyone, with a "bang", the body broke apart like bubbles, scattered all over the ground, and turned into a pool of light purple liquid.

But there was no sign of shedding blood.

Swish!
Gu Zheng put away his knife, looked at Shi Huaiying, and said softly, "County Magistrate Shi, have you cried enough?"

“…Enough…enough.”

Shi Huaiying's body stiffened, he sobbed, and replied in a trembling voice.

Immediately, he wiped his face with his sleeve, got up from the ground, looked sad, lowered his head and said, "I am guilty, I beg you to punish me."

"…There is no question of punishment for your case."

Gu Zheng raised his hand and said calmly, "Besides, it is not my responsibility to punish you. We in the Demon Slaying Division are only responsible for killing demons. This time we came to Daping County to eliminate demons."

"As for the appearance of the demons, you, Magistrate Shi, have also seen it. These demons, like evil spirits, possess the bodies of dead people, gain control over them, and attempt to disguise themselves as humans and live among the crowd."

"If we ignore them and allow these demons to use corpses as their bodies and live among the people, what will be the final result..."

"kill!"

Shi Huaiying waved his hands vigorously and shouted through gritted teeth, "All demons should die! Lord Gu, please give me your orders on how to eliminate the demons, and I will fully cooperate."

"very good."

Gu Zheng nodded, it was worth it for him to control the knife.

Instead of directly chopping off Shi Huaiying's daughter's head, he forced the demon out first, because Shi Huaiying was needed.

It will be more convenient to clear out all the demons in the city with Shi Huaiying's cooperation.

"First, County Magistrate Shi, you must issue a ban on grave digging, prohibiting everyone from digging up bodies that have already been buried. This step must be announced to the entire county immediately."

"Okay, I'll go and issue it right away!" Shi Huaiying saluted and quickly ran out of the hall.

Gu Zheng turned around and looked at Sun Zhenyao, Zhang Bosong, and Yan Hongxue, and said softly, "When the statistical list comes out, Brother Zhang, Yan Hongxue, you each lead a team to eliminate the possessed demons one by one. When you draw your swords, you must be quick."

"By the way, put some refreshing liquid on your eyes before you go."

"Yes!"

Zhang Bosong and Yan Hongxue responded. Then, Zhang Bosong sighed, "I didn't expect this mission to be so bizarre. Fortunately, we got a bottle of 'refreshing liquid' before. Otherwise, I, Zhang, would be blind."

"'Refreshing Liquid' is indeed timely, but I am more curious about this demon."

Yan Hongxue frowned and said, "In the entire Qianyu Mansion, there is only one field in the northeast that was transformed into a passage. The demons in Daping County should not have flowed over here. Where did these demons that can become invisible and possess corpses come from?"

"Also, the corpses that have been dead for several months and haven't decayed are also a problem." Gu Zheng continued, "There are more than just lavender invisible demons causing trouble in Daping County!"

"Yes, if we don't figure out the reasons behind this, even if the possessed demon is eliminated, the troubles in Daping County will never end." Zhang Boshong sighed.

Sun Zhenyao was silent.

He couldn't get a word in, nor did he dare to.

When the dead were first resurrected, Sun Zhenyao actually drew his sword and chopped these people.

But... it's of no use!
Cutting off the arms and piercing the heart did not affect the opponent at all and he continued to move.

These people will not stop unless their heads are chopped off and their bodies are cut into several pieces.

Unlike Gu Zheng, who could kill the demon instantly with just one strike of his sword.

It was also after seeing the effect of Gu Zheng's sword that Sun Zhenyao realized that when he chopped the man into several pieces, he was actually chopping a corpse, not a demon.

That demon has already escaped!
……

……

The county government issued a ban, which spread throughout the city and to surrounding villages and towns, causing a commotion and discussion among the people.

Gu Zheng, Zhang Boshong, and Yan Hongxue have each led a team of detectives to run around the city, visiting each door one by one to eliminate the possessed demons.

When the statistical list came out, there were as many as 356 bodies that were possessed.

This does not include areas outside the county that are far away.

Gu Zheng came to the door and killed the possessed demons one by one with his sword, gaining demon points.

Of course, not every possessed demon will shed blood when killed.

Only about one out of every three possessed demons has the ability to shed blood.

[Demon Points +1]

[Demon Points +1]

……

After running around for half an afternoon, Gu Zheng gained 26 demon points.

But when he continued to go door to door and found a wealthy family, the cleanup operation was hindered.

"Mr. Wang, are you going to rebel against the court?"

Sun Zhenyao, who followed Gu Zheng, pointed at the wealthy middle-aged man standing behind a group of guards holding spears and surrounded by martial artists holding knives. He shouted angrily, "Think it through! If you block our work, it's considered treason and you can be killed without mercy!"

"Captain Sun, you don't have to scare me."

The wealthy middle-aged man grinned, with cunning eyes, "The crime is treason, it's not something you can commit just by saying it. My elder brother told me when he was working in the government office next door..."

"okay."

Gu Zheng interrupted calmly, "I just want to ask you, will you hand over your son who has come back from the dead?"

"…Please forgive me, sir."

The wealthy middle-aged man straightened his expression and spoke in a slower tone, "My son has never died, so how can he be resurrected?"

"Are you sure?" Gu Zheng asked calmly.

"……Sure!"

"What about you?" Gu Zheng looked at the guards and martial artists who were protecting the wealthy middle-aged man and raised his voice, "Are you sure you want to fight against the imperial court and stop us from doing things for the sake of the Wang family?"

"..."

There was silence.

All the guards and martial artists looked at each other, and most of them showed fear on their faces and swayed to the side.

"What! What?"

Seeing this, the wealthy middle-aged man shouted angrily, "You eat my food, use my money, and get a large reward every month! Now if anyone comes to deal with my Wang family, you will shake them and dare not stop them?"

"Big Head, didn't you say you would be loyal to me?"

The wealthy middle-aged man pointed at a strong young man with a big head, a sturdy physique and a somewhat demented look, and said in a strange voice, "Now someone wants to attack my Wang family, Big Head, what do you think we should do?"

"Kill! Kill him!"

The young man roared, drew his sword, squeezed out of the circle of guards, and rushed towards Gu Zheng with red eyes...
