I became a saint in the world of Liao Zhai, and flirted with monster girls

Broken arms and limbs were entangled in water plants, and in the mud and human bones, half of a broken bamboo pole was deeply buried.

Only as the mud rolled, a little trace was revealed, but it was soon covered by the rolling mud again.

"Wow~!"

The starlight shattered on the surface of the lake, and a huge black shadow broke out of the water like a small mountain.

Suddenly, in the center of the lake, under the starlight, a huge black shadow swam out from underground, and a pitch-black fish tail swam out of the water.

The big blackfish, revealing its true form, was even bigger than before.

The tail of the fish, as high as the eaves of a house, slapped the water surface, creating huge waves that were more than two people high. Dead fish and rotten shrimps were mixed in the waves. The fishy wind wrapped in water droplets blew in Zhou Kao's face, making the hem of his clothes rustle.

The waves were more powerful than imagined, and actually formed waves around them.

At the same time, a strong wind carrying the fishy smell of lake water raged across the lake.

Zhou Kao succeeded in seducing Yu Niang according to Yu Niang's method.

As the waves rolled up, all kinds of fish and shrimps under the lake turned over and floated to the surface.

A big black fish surfaced to the surface of the water, and with the movement of its throat, it swallowed the fish and shrimp floating on the water into its mouth whole. The "crunch" sound of its sharp teeth cutting through bones was creepy.

"Chusheng, do you dare to go ashore?"

Zhou Kao held the pearl of wisdom in his hand and stared at it coldly without any fear. The tiger-patterned sword glowed coldly under the moonlight.

The black fish seemed to be wary of Zhou Kao and stopped when it was about three feet away from him. Its ugly black head floated out of the water, and its two tentacles were like a pair of adult arms, fiddling with the nearby water plants. Its green eyes stared at him greedily.

Zhou Kao did not retreat a single step, staring directly into the black fish's emerald eyes - its gaze contained both the ferocity of a monster and its greed for wisdom. Its whiskers were like adult arms, stirring the water plants and causing a foul smell to rise from the surface of the lake.

"Want to eat me?" Zhou Kao asked.

Zhou Kao shook the pearl of wisdom in his hand. Its lustrous luster was particularly eye-catching in the night. A low "snoring" sound came from the black fish's throat, and sparks flew from the friction of its sharp teeth.

The black fish seemed to understand Zhou Kao's words. It opened its huge mouth, revealing its ferocious sharp teeth.

He was attracted by the beads in Zhou Kao's hand, and his eyes were full of greed.

Zhou Kao was neither anxious nor impatient. He tapped the rocks on the shore with his toes and deliberately raised the pearl of wisdom above his head.

The moonlight penetrates the pearl, reflecting the flowing aura within, just like bait swaying on a fishing rod.

Zhou Kao was not in a hurry to go into the water. The water must be the home turf of the strange fish. It would be best to wait until the coward could no longer hold back.

The lake breeze brushed past my ears, carrying with it the rustling sound of distant soul-calling banners, as if thousands of wronged souls were urging me to hurry up, hurry up, and end this blood feud.

Finally, the last bit of rationality in Black Fish's eyes was devoured by greed and completely worn away.

Just a newborn, with some sense, but not much.

Unable to resist the temptation, he quickly rushed towards Zhou Kao.

A muddy roar came from its throat, its tail fin slapped the water like a drum, and its huge body broke out of the water like a black torpedo, and the waves it stirred up almost swept away the rocks on the shore.

Do you want to get ashore and still maintain the shape of this huge fish?

Zhou Kao rushed forward and chopped Huashan with a knife in both hands!

Zhou Kao did not retreat but advanced, raising the tiger-patterned sword above his head with both arms, and the starlight flowed on the blade like silver lines.

The martial arts stance he had practiced since childhood was as solid as a rock. He listened to the sound of the water as the black fish swam, and stared at the rhythm of its tail fin swinging. When the monster rushed to about ten feet away, he suddenly dodged the fish's head, but the blade seemed to have eyes and chopped down diagonally at the old wound on the fish's tail.

“Puff—”

The tiger-patterned sword was of great use at that time.

Roar! ! ! ! !

The sound of the knife entering the flesh mixed with the sound of bones breaking, and the tiger-patterned sword cut into the scales like cutting tofu.

The black fish twitched in pain, its webbed front limbs dug deep grooves in the mud, but it fell to the ground due to the loss of balance.

Zhou Kao took advantage of the momentum to twist the handle of the knife, and the blade stabbed straight into the wound. After penetrating the abdominal cavity, it "clicked" into the bluestone of the lake beach - this huge newborn body was pierced through by a precious knife and nailed to the ground!

"Ho ho, ho ho..."

The black fish's bloody mouth kept opening and closing, hundreds of sharp teeth made friction sounds, and fishy saliva dripped like a waterfall, but it couldn't even reach the corner of Zhou Kao's clothes.

Zhou Kao stepped on the raised scales on its back, put his five fingers together, clenched his fist, and smashed it hard at its protruding right eye.

"boom!"

"You sinful newborn, you bastard, I'm going to beat you to death!!!"

Amid the sound of eyeballs exploding, black blood mixed with white fluid splattered everywhere, but he seemed tireless, punching round and round, left fist followed by right fist, and the sound of the blows like raindrops startled the night herons in the reeds.

At this time, the lights in the village lit up one after another.

The militiamen of the association gathered on the shore holding hoes and torches, but were frightened by the hideous appearance of the black fish and stopped in their tracks. They could only watch from afar as Zhou Kao rode on the monster's back and punched it with his iron fists.

Someone was shaking the torch in his hand violently, casting the shadow of the young man on the belly of the fish, making him look as majestic as a god of war descending to the earth.

Until the snakehead fish's gill cover no longer opened and closed, and its tail fin completely collapsed in the mud,

Seeing that the monster had no breath left, Zhou Kao stopped, stood up, took a slight breath and straightened his back.

He kicked the monster's stiff body and said, "What a huge beast! Let me see what you are! Are you a snakehead fish that has transformed into a spirit?"

The militiamen bravely moved closer, and the firelight illuminated the monster's body - the "scales" that originally covered its entire body were actually layers of black fish scales, without hair, and the black and white patterns intertwined into strange rings. Upon closer inspection, it was no different from an ordinary blackfish.

"Appearing after death?"

When Zhou Kao raised his eyebrows, the black fish's front limbs suddenly retracted, its sharp claws turned into translucent fins, and its hind limbs curled up into a tail stalk.

The monster that was showing its fangs and claws just now has now completely transformed into a huge black fish, with a body length of five meters. Undigested fish and shrimp skeletons can be vaguely seen in the bulging abdomen.

"Oh, it's changed."

"what is this?"

"Fish, fish, this is a fish..."

"This monster is actually a mullet transformed!!"

An old hunter recognized the original figure and almost dropped the torch in his hand.

As he approached with the torch in hand, he saw Zhou Kao standing beside him like an iron tower, staring down at him.

He knelt down in front of Zhou Kao with a thud: "Are you the immortal master invited by the county lord? Such magical powers..."

"What immortal master?"

Zhou Kao wiped the blood off his face with his sleeve and grinned.

"I'm Zhou Kao, a student from Beiguo County. I was passing through here and stayed overnight. I never expected to be disturbed by this beast. If it weren't for this guy, I would have eaten my eighth bowl of wontons!"

The militiamen looked at each other in bewilderment at the young man with broad shoulders, a thick back and mud-stained trouser legs. Suddenly, they felt that the jade pendant tassel dangling around his waist was even more eye-catching than the gilded lanterns on the county magistrate's mansion.

""

""

Speaking of wontons, Zhou Kao suddenly slapped his forehead and remembered the frightened cook and her crazy son in the attic.

He has to go back, otherwise those people will still be worried!

He clasped his fists to the militiamen, bent down, grabbed the gill cover of the giant black fish, and actually lifted up the five-meter-long behemoth alive - the fish's body made a harsh sound as it dragged on the ground, and the blood on its scales dripped through his fingers, drawing a winding red line on the stone road.

"Shopkeeper Madam!"

He stood at the foot of the pavilion and shouted, his tiger-patterned sword still tucked away at his waist. "Tread lightly! The pavilion is only tilted, not collapsed! I've killed the monster, so you can relax!"

The movement in the attic suddenly stopped.

The proprietress was using her body to hold down her foolish son who was clinging to the windowsill to seek revenge. Her fingertips turned white from the excessive force.

She suspected she had misheard, and only dared to stick her head out when she heard the crackling sound of torches and the excited discussions of the militiamen below.

Under the moonlight, Zhou Kao stood like an iron tower, the black fish on her shoulder was longer than her attic. One of the fish's ruptured eyes had been gouged out, and blood was still flowing from the empty eye socket.

"what?"

She covered her mouth in disbelief, feeling as if she were in another world.

A moment ago, I almost lost my soul and thought I was going to be eaten by a monster;

Is it really so peaceful at this moment?

The cook felt her legs go weak and she slowly sat down holding onto the window frame. The boy in her arms stopped struggling and the muffled shouts of "kill the monster" in her throat also stopped.

Seeing that the downstairs was brightly lit and there were many more torches burning, the cook felt relieved. She carefully put down the ladder and went downstairs with her son trembling with fear.

The cook took the quiet boy down the stairs, holding the handrail, trembling with fear, and every step seemed to be stepping on clouds.

When her feet finally touched the ground, she could no longer support herself and collapsed on the ground.

Looking at the black fish at Zhou Kao's feet, tears welled up in his eyes: "Good... Good... The monster is dead... Dead..."

"Haha! That's great! We've finally gotten rid of this monster! Now we can go fishing in the lake again!"

The young fishermen cheered.

An old woman knelt on the shore, grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it into the lake, crying breathlessly: "Son... stop..."

Zhou Kao threw the black fish in front of the cook. The fish tail swept across the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

The fish was more than a man tall, and its scales glowed bluish-black in the firelight.

The cook reached out to touch the fish's fins with a trembling hand. Suddenly, she remembered something and turned to her son, saying in a trembling voice, "Son, it was this Master Zhou... who avenged us..."

The boy's empty eyes suddenly came into focus. He stared at the fish corpse, and the corners of his mouth slowly opened up, revealing a silly smile.

The crowing of roosters was heard in the distance, and the first ray of morning light climbed up the crooked eaves of the attic, stretching Zhou Kao's shadow very long.

Chapter 23: Monsters can eat humans, so why can’t humans eat monsters?

"Shopkeeper, this is a good thing!"

Zhou Kao kicked the fish carcass, and the scales rustled.

"A truly nourishing dish! Use fish meat as filling, fish bones to make soup, braise fish heads, and stir-fry fish offal. It's guaranteed to be so delicious that there won't even be any soup left!"

""

The cook stared at the big mullet on the ground, her face as pale as paper, and her legs went weak and she was about to fall down.

The scales glowing with cold light and the bloodstained gills were clearly the scenes in her countless nightmares - many late nights, she dreamed of the monster opening its bloody mouth and dragging her family to the bottom of the lake.

Although the monster was dead now, she felt her stomach churning even at looking at it for a second, let alone cooking it with a knife.

"Brother Zhou, let me help you deal with this damn mullet..."

A clear young man's voice suddenly came from behind the cook, with a bit of hoarseness from not speaking for a long time.

? ? ? ? ? ?

Zhou Kao raised his eyebrows and looked over, only to see that the boy who had been foolish and crazy just now had straightened his back, his eyes were as clear as water, and he was reaching out to hold his mother's trembling shoulders.

"Son... My son..."

The proprietress listened to the familiar, methodical voice of the young man.

She turned around abruptly, and stroked her son's cheek with trembling fingertips, trying to confirm whether this was another illusory dream.

Haven't heard it for a long time.

The boy's face was still sickly pale, but no longer dull as before - he gently held his mother's hand, the warmth of his palm made the proprietress's throat tighten, and tears fell down.

He cried bitterly.

"Mom, I'm back. Stop crying, I still have things to do."

"This monster swallowed my sister, my father, and my grandmother. Now it's time to make it pay back."

The proprietress leaned against the door frame, looking at her son's back, and suddenly remembered how he stole meat from the stove when he was a child.

At that time he always said, "I want to be the best chef when I grow up," but due to an unexpected disaster he became insane for many years.

Now that the monster has been killed, her son has finally returned.

so good.

"Brother Zhou,"

"If you're using this fish as wonton filling, add more chopped green onions. My mother's filling is even more delicious than the ones you get at restaurants in the city."

The gradually whitening sky in the east gradually illuminated the boy's slightly rosy face, and he sighed in his heart.
