From Martial Arts Dungeon to Master of Martial Arts
Chapter 9 Demons Enter the City
"Bang!" Mu Sheng's axe fell heavily to the ground.
Wolf Four tumbled to the side in a disheveled state, looking at Mu Sheng with suspicion and uncertainty.
How could he jump so high?
Without hesitation, Mu Sheng gripped the axe, stepped forward, twisted his body, and used all his strength to swing the axe directly at Wolf Four.
"Swoosh!" The axe struck Wolf Four's shoulder, sinking deep into it. If Wolf Four hadn't managed to brace himself with his hands in time, his entire shoulder might have been dislocated. He kicked Mu Sheng in the chest, sending him staggering back a few steps. At the same time, Mu Sheng pulled the axe out.
"Ahhh!" Wolf Four let out a miserable cry, clutching his shoulder as rainwater mixed with blood rolled down his shoulder. He pointed at Mu Sheng with one finger and roared in terror.
"You've really got the hang of it!!"
Mu Sheng held the axe in both hands, the blood on the axe washed away by the rain.
His eyes were bloodshot, his breathing became heavy, and he exuded the aura of a fierce tiger.
"Five Beasts Yuan Technique!!" Wolf Four looked at Mu Sheng with a look of horror. He did not choose to fight head-on, but turned around and ran away.
Mu Sheng stared intently at Wolf Four's back, then moved her feet and began to chase after him frantically.
The rain and darkness made it even harder to see the road, and he stumbled and fell to the ground. As he rolled over and looked behind him, he vaguely saw a tiger pacing in the darkness. As if it had spotted him, it immediately opened its blood-red maw and stared at him.
"roar!!"
"No!!" Wolf Four roared, and the tiger shadow instantly transformed into Mu Sheng, who was holding an axe.
"Boom!" Lightning flashed in the dark clouds, and the thunder drowned out all other sounds.
On the street, Wolf Four's head rolled to the ground, his eyes filled with terror and regret, but no one knew what he regretted.
...
The next morning.
Mu Yun knocked on Mu Sheng's door: "Xiao Sheng, get up and eat."
"I understand." Mu Sheng opened the door and said in a muffled voice, already wearing a Taoist robe.
"Your voice sounds like you have a cold. Did you catch a chill from the heavy rain last night?" Mu Yun said with a worried expression.
"It's nothing, I just caught a slight chill. I'll practice some martial arts and work up a sweat, and I'll feel better." Mu Sheng walked out the door.
Out of the corner of his eye, Mu Yun noticed that the waiter's clothes were dripping water on the wall inside.
"What happened to your clothes?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted to air it out last night, but it rained." Mu Sheng pushed Mu Yun out: "I'm hungry too, let's go eat, I still need to go to Zhenyuan Temple to practice."
Mu Yun casually closed the door behind him, unaware that anything was amiss.
The two immediately went into the main room, where there were still quite a few leftovers from last night.
Zhou Fanhua slammed the plate in her hand onto the table and said, "How are we going to live like this? The Little Knife Gang still has those ten taels of silver. How are we going to come up with it?"
"I'll figure something out," Mu Yun said in a deep voice. "You just need to take care of the family."
"You can't even move your legs right now, and we still have debts over there. Where are we going to get that money?" Zhou Fanhua cried and sobbed beside her.
Ever since Mu Sheng started learning martial arts, the other party has been constantly shedding tears.
Mu Sheng took out two taels of silver from her bosom and placed them on the table: "Brother, this is the severance pay my inn gave me last time."
"Take this money, I'll figure out the rest," Mu Yun said in a deep voice.
"Brother, I still have money. Recently, the temple has seen my talent and is taking care of my meals and other needs," Mu Sheng said. "Besides, I have a high level of talent, and becoming a martial artist is inevitable."
Mu Yun fell silent. What he was most unwilling to do was for Mu Sheng to make such a sacrifice.
Firstly, he didn't want his younger brother to suffer, and secondly, his elder brother's dignity was being directly suppressed.
The latter was what he couldn't stand the most.
"Don't worry about Wolf Four, brother. I've asked the Taoist priest from Zhenyuan Temple to intervene, and we'll definitely be able to get a month. There are only twenty days left now, so Wolf Four won't dare to go too far..."
"Alright," Mu Yun interrupted Mu Sheng, "Eat your meal. You still need to practice your martial arts."
Mu Sheng immediately began to eat in a sullen manner.
...
After finishing the meal.
Mu Sheng walked out the door and into the market. He saw a lot of people gathered in a circle in front of him, and he curiously approached the crowd.
I saw several stretchers in the middle, covered with white sheets, and judging from the human figures on the stretchers, there were quite a few people.
But why are there so many people?
He only killed one wolf, Wolf Four.
He tugged at the person next to him and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
The man next to her, who had been frowning, spoke up after hearing Mu Sheng's words: "The demons have entered the city. Although it was only those scum from the Little Knife Gang who died, who knows when they might attack us."
Mu Sheng's pupils contracted: "Demons have entered the city?!"
What he had heard at the inn was that Zhao Family Village had been wiped out by demons, but the accountant was certain that the demons would enter the city.
But now, unexpectedly, it has come true.
He suppressed his shock before asking, "Did those members of the Little Knife Gang die?"
The Little Knife Gang has five leaders. Wolf Four wasn't originally called Wolf Four; he only became known as Wolf Four after joining the Little Knife Gang.
"That's Wolf Four's gang. They were showing off again last night, but they ran into the demons and were all wiped out. But Wolf Four was lucky. The demons ate the flesh and blood of those people, but Wolf Four only lost his head."
The man shook his head and said, "This place won't be easy to live in from now on. Demons have come from outside the city, and we might run into them at any time."
Mu Sheng silently walked out of the crowd.
The good news is that Wolf Four's death is now directly attributed to the demons, although it's unclear how the decapitation and the draining of his flesh are combined.
But at least he won't be suspected anymore.
The bad news is...
The demons have entered the city, and now the outer city is the most dangerous. He reached into his pocket and touched the silver in his chest pocket.
Having killed Wolf Four, how could he possibly leave empty-handed? Wolf Four was also wealthy; he received a silver ingot and a few taels of loose silver.
This can be considered a solution to the immediate crisis.
However, it would be best to use this money to move Mu Yun and his wife to the inner city. Although they can't stay there permanently, they can stay for a long time.
"Bang!" He was suddenly bumped into, and his hand immediately covered his chest. Only then did he look down and see a little beggar who had been knocked to the ground.
He hurriedly said, "I'm so sorry, sir! I wasn't watching where I was going!"
He groped around on the ground with both hands, and Mu Sheng then realized that he was blind and there was a wooden stick on the ground.
He picked up the stick and helped the other person stand up straight: "Be careful next time."
"Thank you, thank you," the little beggar said hurriedly.
Mu Sheng hurriedly turned around and walked towards Zhenyuan Temple, ignoring the other party.
The little beggar's lifeless eyes seemed to glance at Mu Sheng's back before he picked up the wooden stick and groped around in front of him, muttering to himself.
Good deeds will be rewarded, and evil deeds will be punished.
