Cultivation is too difficult, and people will die if they do the tasks.

Bai Wan'er felt a little scared when she saw Ding Qitong staring at her without blinking.

"Senior sister, what's wrong with Wan'er?"

"No" Ding Qitong smiled, "Wan'er has grown up, it's so gratifying."

Bai Wan'er was stunned, not understanding why Ding Qitong sighed like this.

"Senior sister, we need to discuss how to deal with the rat demon."

Bai Wan'er and Ding Qitong discuss the plan to subdue the demon. Wu Wenxuan went to arrange the rat eradication plan.

Once the notice is posted, a basket full of copper coins is placed at the entrance of the government office, which is more effective than any advertisement.

Soon people spread the word.

Half an hour later, people came one after another carrying mice to exchange for copper coins. This kind of good thing to make money is most suitable for ordinary people.

People are highly motivated to eradicate rats. Various ways were thought of. Trapping, digging holes, smoking... there are experts among the people.

The queue of people who came to exchange copper coins stretched ten feet away outside the Yamen.

In just half a day, the big pit dug by the river was filled with rat carcasses.

At dusk, a fire burned brightly and black smoke rose into the sky.

The next day, more people came, not only from the county town, but also from the villages outside the city, all carrying baskets of rat carcasses in exchange for money.

The fireworks by the river never stopped.

Bai Wan'er's rat eradication campaign was in full swing, causing a devastating blow to the rat ecosystem in Yulin County.

At night, it was late. The lights were turned off at the home of the county magistrate Qian Shouyi and he went to bed.

No more cases occurred in the past few days, Qian Shouyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that I have found clues to the case, and with the help of a Taoist priest with profound spiritual practice, my black gauze hat has been saved, and my daughter has been settled at home.

Finally able to sleep peacefully.

Qian Shou had just started to take a nap when he heard a thin rustling sound. When he opened his eyes, he saw a puff of black smoke rising from the corner of the room.

Qian Shou sat up suddenly.

A man in black with a deer-headed head and rat-like eyes stepped out of the black mist. He is not tall and has eyes as big as mung beans. He has a few sparse beards.

"You...who are you?" Qian Shouyi trembled.

"Master Qian doesn't know me, and he actually wants me to annihilate my descendants. Now let's see where you run away!"

As the man spoke, he rushed to the bed and stretched out his hands.

The palms were as thin as bones, and the fingers were as black as tree branches. The nails on his hands were more than a foot long, pointed and shining with black light, and they pinched Qian Shouyi's neck.

"come..."

Qian Shouyi was so frightened that he froze and refused to dodge, letting the man choke him.

The man opened his mouth wide and bit his sharp fangs on Qian Shouyi's neck.

"how is the taste?"

A sweet laugh came from behind the man.

The man found that there was no feeling of flesh and blood at the entrance. Taking a closer look, the county magistrate in front of him had turned into a piece of paper.

No, it's a trap!
  The man shook the paper man and turned around to run away.

Unfortunately, it was too late. A big silver net fell from the sky and covered him.

The man rolled on the ground and turned into a black mouse, which came out of the mesh.

"No, I forgot that he will change!"

Bai Wan'er quickly waved the Ruyi Lock, turning it into a densely rotating fire wheel, blocking the rats from escaping outward.

The mouse turned around and ran towards the hole at the bottom of the wall. As soon as the smoke disappeared, he fled into the cave.

When the mouse spirit crawled out of the hole, he heard a "dang" sound and a gate fell behind him.

When he looked up again, he found that he was already in a cage.

"How about it, how does it feel to get into the cage by yourself?"

The woman in front of him just now was looking at him with a smile.

"What can a little cage do to me?"

The mouse's body began to expand rapidly, and in an instant it became bigger than a pig.

The cage made of fine steel was almost stretched out of shape.

"Sure enough!" Bai Wan'er threw out a fire talisman, and several flames spurted out, surrounding the cage, and the flames billowed.

The rat spirit made a squeaking sound and rolled snowballs on the ground with its cage.

"boom"

It hit the wall, making a big hole in it, and the cage fell apart.

A rat larger than a human stood in front, its eyes glowing red.

Bai Wan'er's hair stood on end.

It's not that I'm afraid of the opponent's spells, but that I was afraid of mice in my previous life. Seeing such a big mouse made my skin crawl.

"See where you are going!"

Countless chains were shot from the air and attacked the rat demon.

Ding Qitong saw Bai Wan'er standing there blankly, and came to the rescue.

The rat demon couldn't escape, and its fur was torn by the sharp lock. Writhing and screaming in pain. In a blink of an eye, it turned into a little mouse and flew outside.

"Up"

Bai Wan'er waved her hand, and the two cats were thrown over by Bai Wan'er.

The cat catches the mouse, as a matter of course. When enemies meet, they will be particularly jealous.

The two cats combined offense and defense, attacking from both sides, and soon blocked the little mouse at the corner of the street.

The little mouse had no choice but to turn around, turn into a human form, fly up the house, and fly out of the city.

Bai Wan'er and Ding Qitong were in hot pursuit.

The rat demon suddenly ran into the forest.

"Wan'er, be careful, there is a formation here." Ding Qitong grabbed Bai Wan'er.

Ding Qitong looked around: "Wan'er has set up a barrier here. Don't let the rat demon escape. I'll go in and take a look."

"Senior sister, be careful, keep this mirror in hand for easy communication."

Bai Wan'er handed a Tongxuan treasure mirror to Ding Qitong.

Ding Qitong looked in the mirror, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, nodded, and flew into the forest.

Bai Wan'er quickly set up a barrier around the forest and opened the Tongxuan Mirror.

I saw Ding Qitong walking through the dense forest. Suddenly there was a noise on the ground, and Ding Qitong flew up.

When Bai Wan'er saw it, she almost threw away the mirror in her hand. In the mirror, the ground where Ding Qitong settled was covered with rats.

Ding Qitong is in a rat's nest.

Ding Qitong calmly flew up and waved her hands, her fingertips glowed with silver light, and suddenly there was a burst of water on the ground.

The original ground turned into water, and countless mice fell into the puddles and kept flopping around.

Ding Qitong's Ruyi Lock penetrated a big tree. After the tree collapsed, a huge black hole was revealed.

Ding Qitong jumped into the tree hole, passed through a long dark passage, and came to a room.

There is a giant injured rat in the corner of the room.

Ding Qitong started a battle with the mouse, and she was indeed a practitioner at the Golden Core stage. Soon the mouse was beaten to the point of being helpless.

Seeing that he was about to be caught by Ding Qitong, the mouse spirit suddenly opened his mouth, and a round bead flew out and shot towards Ding Qitong.

No, the mouse accurately prepared the demon pill and self-destructed to attack Ding Qitong. Even if you die, you will have someone to support you.

Ding Qitong couldn't hide too far in the cave at this moment. It's dangerous!

At the critical moment, the ground suddenly collapsed and the tree hole was exposed.

As soon as Ding Qitong soared, she was far into the air. A red light flashed and the demon pill disappeared.

The rat demon rolled on the ground a few times, smoking all over his body, and soon turned into a pile of black ashes.

"Thank you for your help!"

Ding Qitong thanked a male cultivator in the air.

"Fellow Taoist, you don't need to be polite. Thanks to your help, we can destroy the rat demon and ensure the peace of the people."

The male cultivator landed lightly on the ground.

Bai Wan'er ran forward and took a look: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, why are you here?"

The person who came was none other than Ming Wang Xiao Hongye.
