Chapter 139: Sand is poisonous
Zhong Jin followed Xu Yuanchang closely. He didn't know why Xu Daoyou was so sure. That cunning and invisible opponent went north?
I secretly regretted it, and should have placed a few array devices around the shed.

He was good at formations and missed a good opportunity.

Before the two flew far, they heard a "bang" explosion from the north of the town.

Flames shot into the sky, trees fell and shattered, and a raging fire broke out.

Dust billowed and screams and cries arose.

Xu Yuanchang sped up and flew towards the low mountain where a large crater had been blown up in the north of the town.

I saw a movement moving northeast and disappeared into the stream.

He stopped Zhong Jin from chasing after him alone, and said: "Be careful of fraud. You first arrange people to appease the townspeople and extinguish the fire in the forest. Don't let it spread to the town. Let me ask my companions what they found?"

Zhong Jin watched Xu Yuanchang fall to the other side of the short mountain, and he wisely did not follow him.

Fellow Daoist Xu's companion who was hiding in the dark had just made contact with something invisible, and it was obvious that he fell short of success and failed to keep the murderer behind.

Xu Yuanchang took out a red willow branch from the bamboo box and inserted it into the soil on the hillside.

Red willow shoots and sprouts at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Liu Xianfeng appeared on the branch, covered with a very light yellow-black dust mist, her face turned pale, and she forced a smile and said:
"I know what's causing trouble. It's the legendary 'Sandworm'. I wonder why it can escape through earth and water, and is also good at concealing its aura? It crashed into the phantom wood formation and nest forest formation that I set up. , with mid-level second-level strength, it sprayed dust and sand all over me with all its might.

"I saw that it couldn't stay trapped, so I didn't let it feel better. I hit it with a stick and gave it a second-level fire talisman. Unfortunately, I let it escape and couldn't keep it.

"If you give me a little more time to set up a second-level wooden formation, it won't be able to escape."

Xu Yuanchang listened and waited for Xiao Shumei to finish, and said: "Next time, you don't have to fight so hard. It would be better if you can trap it. It doesn't matter if you can't trap it and leave its breath. The 'sand' it sprays on you is poisonous. It's used The wronged soul has been refined through cruel methods and can harm the soul. I will cast a spell to help you remove it. Don't delay for too long."

He took out the soul-collecting bottle used by the demon catcher, silently recited the soul-collecting spell in his mouth, and pulled one finger with his fingers.

The thin dust mist wrapped around Liu Xianfeng's body seemed to be twisting like a living thing. He was struggling and unwilling to be pulled out of the strands of black air, and slowly sank into the black vial.

A green light erupted from Liu Xianfeng's body, defeating the remaining yellow dust, mist, and sand. He suddenly looked relaxed and shouted:

"The poisonous 'Hansha' turns out to be a sacrifice of the dead souls. No wonder I can't get rid of it no matter how hard I try. It makes me breathless. Don't let me catch you next time. I'll smash your skull into pieces."

She was hurt a little.

But places with trees can recover quickly.

What annoyed her was that even though she had a chance to win, Hansha Xie used a weird counterattack to escape, but she was still careless.

The red willow branches and leaves were shrouded like an umbrella, and the monks on the other side of the mountain didn't expect their words to be heard.

Xu Yuanchang stretched out two fingers and rubbed his forehead, thinking: "Hansha Xie broke into the town several times and killed three people. The snake charmer is its next target... Is there something wrong with this? Related?"

With Hansha's ability to appear and disappear, it would not take much time to collect souls and kill all the mortals in nearby villages and towns.

Hanshaxiao doesn't look like a mindless idiot who is bent on killing.

But he only had trouble with a few people. He had to think deeply whether there was a reason?

Liu Xianfeng hurriedly waved her hands and said clearly: "I was injured just now and my head hurts badly. Don't embarrass me with these problems."

Xu Yuanchang smiled and said: "I guess which direction Hansha Xie will enter the town next. If your head hurts, rest more. I will find someone else to arrange it."

Liu Xianfeng chuckled and said, "You tell me, your head won't hurt anymore."

"Still north."

"Does it still dare to come?"

"What are you afraid of? Hanshaxiao always takes the main road when entering and exiting the town. It seems that he doesn't bother to sneak through the houses. Otherwise, it will be difficult to defend against. You can quietly explore and compare under the two streets of the town and other places later. , you have had some experience with the sandworm, and already know its scent. To test my guess, I will go to the south and plant red willow branches, and I will leave this place to you."

"Don't worry, I'll go investigate right away. I'll arrange it carefully here so that it won't be able to escape if it dares to come."

"Be careful, it's the Sin God who was suppressed in the Xianqiao Mountain Domain. It's not far from here. If you notice something is wrong, join me immediately."

"I know."

Liu Xianfeng geared up and disappeared into the red willow trees.

Since she got the golden camphor wood stick, her strength and confidence have greatly increased. This time, she was sprayed with sand by the sandworm. It was because she was careless and underestimated the enemy. However, the sandworm also suffered a lot, and the loss was not small.

The two sides met for the first time and both suffered losses.

She was also always on guard against the God of Sin, and carried with her a few talismans drawn by the young master with his second-level cultivation, without noticing the prying eyes of the Mountain God.

After Xu Yuanchang finished explaining, he flew into the air. Liu Xianfeng was already able to take charge of his role. He reminded him a few times when he needed to be reminded, but there was no need to say anything else.

Seeing that the fire heading towards the town was extinguished, he greeted the flying Zhong Jin and flew towards the south of the town.

Don't worry about the awe and excitement that every couple in town looks at like a god.

In extraordinary times, just get used to it. "Now it has been found out that it is a 'Hansha' that is proficient in earth escape and water escape and is causing trouble. It has mid-level second-level strength. It crashed into the first-level formation arranged by my companion and spit out 'sand' to break the formation. To get out of trouble, the 'sand' is mixed with the souls of wronged souls for sacrifice, it is very sinister, so you must be careful to guard against it."

Xu Yuanchang briefly communicated what he knew about the situation.

Zhong Jin frowned slightly. How could a second-level sand-bearing creature that was proficient in earth escape and water escape have such a weird thing and be difficult to capture?

Seeing Xu Yuanchang planting a branch on the side of the road, he didn't understand what he was doing. He sent a voice message: "Fellow Daoist Xu, I have to trouble you to arrange how to capture and kill that cunning sandworm. The four of us Everyone cooperates wholeheartedly.”

He had limited knowledge of the legendary Hansha monster, and the monster's aura was invisible and it came and went without a trace.

Simply lower your body and let Xu Daoyou, who has shown extraordinary ability, arrange the work, and he can just take advantage of it.

Xu Yuanchang was not polite, smiled and spoke for a while in a deliberative tone.

Zhong Jin accepted the order and hurried back to the town hall. He summoned three of his subordinates to make arrangements for each one.

Pulling out his long sword, Xu Yuanchang carved traces along the middle of the gravel road, leaving a few wooden figurines that went deep into the ground. He carved another mark about a few feet apart, and then carved four marks in a row.

He used the method of using wood to overcome earth.

If the arrogant Han Shaxiao walked south into the town, he would definitely alarm him who was guarding the place.

He arranged for Zhong Jin to set up hidden formations at the east and west ends, with people guarding them carefully. Zhong Jin was in the center to provide support. No matter which way Hansha Xie entered the town, they would run into an ambush. At that time, they could close the net and die. Just straighten it.

If Han Shaxiao doesn't take the main road and takes advantage of the loophole to enter the town, there are other arrangements waiting for him.

No matter what is true or false, there is always a suitable path for the Hanshami. I am just afraid that the Hanshami will not come.

Xu Yuanchang's decoration here was completed, and the small tree charm appeared from the red willow branches planted on the roadside.

"Sir, your guess is correct. Through the roots of trees and deep underground in the two streets of the ancient town, I detected some traces of the scent left by Hansha Xie in the past no less than ten times. There are no clues in other parts of the town."

"Okay, there are empty nets in four directions at the entrance of the town, just waiting for it to break through."

"Sir, it should be observing in the dark. Will it break in? It doesn't look like it has a broken brain."

"Just think that it has lost its mind and let's be on guard."

"Okay, it's up to you."

The two communicated and discussed for a while, and Xiao Shumei quickly disappeared.

Xu Yuanchang put away the bamboo basket, turned his back to the setting sun, and transformed himself into a small tree bathed in the glow. On the side were red willow branches that had just sprouted some green buds, and underground roots were slowly spreading.

The bad guys in the town received instructions from the official who came to handle the case from the city. They beat the gong and shouted on the street: "Dear neighbors, young and old, the official said that the turmoil that happened earlier was caused by the official setting up an ambush. A monster has caused harm to people, and we are now trying our best to hunt down the monster. You can sleep peacefully at night and don’t go out and move around..."

"哐哐哐", knock all the way and shout all the way.

People in the town have calmed down a bit.

Every household is prepared with kitchen knives, poles, torches and other items.

It might come in handy if monsters come in at night.

There is no moon in the night sky, the sky is dark and the wind is high.

The ancient town in the mountains fell into a deep sleep, and the lights gradually became scarce.

The monk Bai Jisi who was guarding the snake charmer was reading a travel diary by candlelight, enjoying himself with relish.

The snake charmer who had fed the big snake raw meat woke up after sleeping on the bed. His stomach made a growling sound. He covered his abdomen and got up quickly and said: "Master Hou, the little one may have eaten too much oil and water, and his stomach is unbearable. Yes." Is it better to go to the potty in the house or go to the toilet?"

The monk surnamed Hou quickly put away his books, lit a lantern, and said, "Don't use the potty in the room. It's too smelly. I'll accompany you to the toilet. It's only a few steps away. Let's go."

"I have caused trouble to you, Mr. Hou. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Hou."

The snake charmer bowed and said repeatedly.

The monk surnamed Hou held the lantern, opened the door, and guarded the snake charmer.

The two of them walked along the corridor to the toilet at the end.

In the bamboo basket containing the big snake in the corner of the room, a triangular red snake head was poked out from under the black cloth. It was only as thick as a finger. The little snake slipped to the ground, quickly climbed out of the open door, and disappeared into the darkness.

The banging of wooden clappers and the long and long voice of an old man could be heard in the street.

"Boom...boom, boom, boom, boom!"

"Go to bed early and get up early, take care of yourself."
