Sword from the Immortal Mountain

Chapter 92: Slay the Demon

Chen Jin did not hear much valuable information about the Red Eyebrow Sect from the village chief He Agui.

Just like when the villagers of Chenze Township talked about Yunshan Temple, their praise and boasting were full of blindness.

Most people's vision and knowledge are like this, limited by various factors.

After filtering out the water, we can roughly know:
The Chimei Sect is located on the Chishen Mountain, a hundred miles away. The leader is "Master Chishen". There are not many disciples in the sect, both male and female.

The Chishen Mountain is not open to the public. The disciples of the sect act in secret and rarely appear in the countryside.

And today, two beautiful female disciples actually came to Datang Village in person to exorcise demons and monsters, which immediately made He Agui and others flattered and overjoyed, thinking that they were finally saved.

After a brief loss, Ye Yanke let it go. He decided to give the snake demon to the two women, not wanting to fight for it. Maybe this was a training mission for the other party's sect, and a gentleman should help others do good.

Chen Jin didn't say anything and continued to wash rice and cook.

Seeing this, Ye Yanke came over to help, washing the pot and cutting the meat. Judging from his skillful technique, he must have cooked a lot.

Chen Jin simply asked him to cook.

The three parties included Village Chief He who provided local tools, Chen Jin who provided food, oil, salt and Ye Yanke who provided technical strength.

All alive.

The dinner they finally cooked was delicious and the three of them enjoyed it very much.

After dinner, it was not yet dark.

He Agui stood at the door with a cane, looking around, his face somewhat worried: the two women had gone out to subdue the demon, but it had been a while and they still hadn't come back.

Has the snake demon not been found yet?

Or something unexpected happened.

Or maybe he had already subdued and killed the snake demon, and then left...

There are three possibilities, and of course I hope it will be the last one.

In the yard, Ye Yanke mustered up his courage and asked, "Scholar, can I help you lead the horse to the riverside, give it a bath, and let it eat grass?"

Chen Jin said: "Of course."

Ye Yanke was overjoyed. He immediately came over to untie the horse's harness, took the horse in his hands, and walked out.

After watching him walk away, He Agui said to Chen Jin, "Sir, aren't you afraid that he will ride your horse away?"

Chen Jin said calmly: "He won't."

"It's hard to tell what's in your heart."

He Agui obviously favors Chen Jin. His status as a scholar makes him more appealing and trustworthy.

After all, they are an honest family.

But Ye Yangke's wild approach is different, it is strange and dangerous.

Chen Jin said nonchalantly: "It's not bad to use a horse to get to know a person."

He Agui: “…”

I always feel that this young man's words and actions are weird and not quite normal. I don't know if he is careless or bold.

More likely it's a bit of both.

Otherwise, he would not have gone out alone with a dog and traveled thousands of miles to the prefecture to take the exam.

……

But Ye Yanke led his strong horse out of the village and came to the edge of the water. He looked around, then rolled up his trouser legs, took out a short blade from his waist, and began to cut grass.

He was a horse lover, and he worked meticulously, only selecting fresh and good grass. It didn't take long for him to cut a large pile of grass, stack it up, and prepare to take it back so that the horse could have grass to eat in the middle of the night.

Suddenly, the healthy horse that was eating grass over there seemed to sense something and became uneasy.

The wind is blowing.

Fishy!

"Yu!"

The strong horse suddenly raised its hooves and neighed loudly, as if it was greatly frightened, and ran away in a hurry.

Ye Yanke was shocked and didn't know what happened for a moment. But he knew that if the horse ran away, he would not be able to go back and explain to Chen Jin.

He immediately took big steps and chased after her.

He was good at swordsmanship, but not very good at light work, so he was quickly frightened and ran away, and the panicked horse was left behind for a distance. Seeing that the horse was about to run into the forest at the foot of the mountain, Ye Yanke became even more anxious.

The next moment, there was an unusual movement in the lush grass in front, and then a black shadow jumped out, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Jianma's neck.

"Yu!"

The healthy horse let out a mournful cry, and was thrown to the ground in an instant, unable to struggle.

Ye Yanke, who was standing behind him, saw this scene and was furious. He shouted angrily, "How dare you, evil demon!"

He drew his sword and ran after him with it.

The snake was very long, with most of its body hidden in the grass. The exposed trunk was as thick as a bucket, and its triangular head was as big as a millstone, with its tongue moving in and out unsteadily.

It bit the healthy horse to death with one bite. It was not afraid of Ye Yanke and swung its long tail to sweep over him.

At this moment, Ye Yanke's eyes were red, he was shocked and angry, and he had only one thought in his mind: the horse is dead, what should I do?
"Ahhh!"

He roared, his sword gleaming, and he was ready to cut the giant snake into pieces.

……

Dusk began to fall.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Wangcai suddenly barked loudly.

Chen Jin stood up. Even if Gouzi didn't give any warning, he could hear Ye Yanke's angry roar.

The sound was like that of a wounded tiger, floating in the wind and alarming the entire village.

"problem occurs."

He Agui stumbled out of the house, looking worried.

Chen Jin carried the Caomang Sword on his back: "I'll go take a look."

He Agui hurriedly pulled him back and said, "Sir, that noise is most likely caused by the snake demon coming out. If you go, wouldn't you be sending yourself to die in vain?"

Chen Jin said: "That may not be the case. Judging from the sound, maybe Ye Xiake has succeeded. Besides, aren't there two fairies? If they are here, they will definitely come to help after hearing the news."

After hesitating for a moment, He Agui stomped his cane and said, "I've had enough of living in fear and anxiety. Let's go. I'll go with you."

The two of them went out and walked outside.

On the way, two or three elderly people walked out of their homes. When they saw He Agui, they followed him, even holding weapons such as harpoons, knives and axes in their hands.

Fishermen in water towns are used to making a living in the wind and waves. Even when they are old, there is still some ferocity and cruelty in their hearts.

After a while, a small team was formed.

Everyone went out from the back of the village and followed the sound. When they arrived at the place and saw the scene there, they couldn't help but be shocked.

What came into view was Ye Yanke, who stood as tall as a pine tree. In his hand was a broad and thick heavy sword. The tip of the sword was bright red, and blood was flowing down.

Not only the sword, but also the cloth on his body was stained with blood, which was very scary.

But judging from his appearance, he was not injured, and the blood should be snake blood.

A huge snake several feet long fell into the bushes, its body covered with scales as hard as iron, but now there were numerous wounds scattered all over its body.

Sword marks.

There are many sword marks.

However, the snake was still alive. It barely raised its millstone-sized head. Its eyes, with a strange red glow, stared at Ye Yanke viciously.

It was not the first time for the group of elderly people to see a snake demon, but they had never seen it so clearly. They all gasped and felt terrified.

At the same time, the eyes looking at the barefoot young swordsman began to become admiring.

One man and one sword, fighting against the snake monster, this courage and skill is no joke.

But Ye Yanke was seen breathing heavily, his sword-holding hand as steady as a rock. He stepped forward, raised the heavy sword, and was going to give the snake demon the final blow and cut off the ugly and ferocious snake head.

"stop!"

Suddenly a delicate shout was heard.

Then, they saw two figures in colorful clothes running down the mountain. They were the two female disciples from the Red Eyebrow Sect.

They came in a hurry, and soon they were in the middle of the field, blocking Ye Yanke:
"Stop, you can't kill it!"
