Prehistoric: A steady life, starting from Journey to the West

While expelling the cold from his body, he also roasted his clothes that were soaked by the heavy rain.

"Does the guest want to take shelter from the rain or stay in the hotel? Do you need to provide a brazier, drinks and food?"

Seeing Chen Qi coming in, the shopkeeper of the inn, who was doing the accounting, stroked his mustache at the corner of his mouth and asked with a smile.

"Stay in the hotel, three people in one carriage, ask for a brazier, and prepare some food."

Chen Qi replied with a smile, and then led the little bookboy Chen An to the corner of the station, and sat down at an empty table.

Boom!

The thunder continued, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

In the post station, the jumping brazier dried the clothes and dispelled the chill from everyone.

The atmosphere was no longer so depressing, and they began to talk and laugh.

The world is difficult, and we can't live in tears.

Most of them are gossip and nasty jokes about parents, whose mother-in-law steals a man, whose son is not his own.

Or it may be that the road to business is difficult, where disasters have been recruited, where bandits have robbed the road, and detours need to be made, etc.

Suddenly, the words of one of them caught Chen Qi's attention.

"Have you all heard about Dali Town?" Gan.

Chapter 121 The monsters and monsters in Dali Town, the first encounter with the lieutenant Fumo! (seeking subscription)

"Have you all heard about Dali Town?"

In Tiger Station, a man dressed as a businessman asked his accomplice mysteriously.

"Who doesn't know, haunted, what's so rare about this kind of thing!"

"I remember that Dali Town has been haunted by ghosts for more than a year. It hasn't stopped until now, and the dealers dare not pass there."

A young businessman couldn't help complaining: "I've been arrested, I've been arrested, I'm panicked, and I don't know what the officials do for food?"

"Cough cough cough, you kid must have drunk too much urine, what nonsense!"

Just after the young merchant finished speaking, an older merchant dressed as an old man next to him kicked this man, carefully glanced at the others around him, and cursed: "It's not haunted, how to catch it, just say something I don't know where to come from." What nonsense to hear!"

The man seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, so he quickly changed the subject.

Only the merchant who spoke first said quietly: "If he speaks nonsense, that's fine."

Several other people frowned, some didn't understand why this person insisted on provoking this, Mo Hong started the topic, and brought up a topic.

However, the merchant ignored his companion's reaction, with palpitations on his face, he said tremblingly: "Brothers, you don't know, I came from the road of Dali Town yesterday, and Dali Town is gone."

"Gone? What do you mean?"

"Well, it's gone. It's like being desolate for more than ten years. The whole town is empty and there is no one. I was so scared that I didn't even dare to look at it. I didn't dare to stop at night. Until now, my legs and feet are still shaking. .”

After the merchant's voice fell, whether it was a few accomplices around or the passers-by who were eavesdropping not far away, they couldn't help but gasp, and the entire Tiger Station fell silent for a while.

"I remember that there are more than 1000 people in Dali Town. Are they all gone?"

After a long time, the old man who just taught the young merchant that there are no ghosts, asked tremblingly in disbelief.

As an old merchant who has been traveling all over the world for decades, he still can't believe his ears.

He was a little confused.

If it was a troubled time in previous years, with natural disasters and man-made disasters, and demons rampant, then it can be justified.

But now it is the Tang Dynasty.

How can there be such unscrupulous ghosts when the king's way is prosperous?

A whole population of more than 1000 people disappeared just like that.

This is completely unimaginable for the old merchants.

"It's gone, it's completely gone."

"Could it have been ordered by the court to move away?"

someone asked.

"Hehe, the whole town is quiet, as if it has been abandoned for more than ten years, not even a bird chirping. Do you think the town has moved away, or is it haunted?" The merchant sneered.

Just like building a house, if no one lives in it, the house will be abandoned much faster.

Often, a new house for two or three years will be the same as an old house that people have lived in for more than ten years.

What is missing is popularity.

If there are people living in it, it will be popular, but it will be slow if the house is desolate, and vice versa.

But can a town be abandoned in a short period of time and become uninhabited for more than ten years?

None of the people present were fools, so they didn't know that something strange happened because of the haunting.

Not to mention, the surroundings of the town were silent, not even a bird chirping.

This even meant that there was something terrifying entrenched in the center of the town. It was no wonder that the Merchant Society was so frightened that they didn't even dare to stay at night, and would rather stay away from there at the risk of being attacked by evil spirits and night beasts.

After the merchant finished speaking, the tiger station fell into silence again, only the charcoal fire in the brazier was burning quietly.

At the corner of the station, Chen Qi was also uneasy.

Although he already knew that this world was dangerous, he never expected it to be so dangerous.

A town of a thousand people would be gone if it didn't exist.

And according to the merchant, the ghost is still entrenched in the town and has not left.

This made him wonder whether the ghost was too strong, or the Dragon Qi of the Tang court had no effect.

Rumble!

Just when the inn was silent due to the disappearance of Dali Town, the gate of the inn was pushed open again, and a huge thunder came in from outside the inn. The merchants and pedestrians in the inn couldn't help being startled, and they all looked at the gate of the inn. go.

At the gate of the station, a figure stood.

It was an extremely burly and majestic man wearing black armor engraved with mysterious patterns.

The head of the door is a bit shorter than him, the waist is half a foot wider than the door frame, and his face is covered with black hair. He looks like a bear.

On one side of his waist is a two-palm-wide sword, on the other side hangs a ghost-headed sword, and on his back is an iron tire bow and a pot of feather arrows, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

"Human Bear" lowered his head, turned sideways, and entered the station.

"Hero, should I take shelter from the rain temporarily, or stay in a hotel, but should I prepare some food?"

When the shopkeeper saw this strong man, he didn't take it for granted, and with an extremely forced smile on his face, he greeted cautiously.

This body, this armament, carelessly greeted, really can't do it!

Although behind their Tiger Inn is the Tiger Gang, one of the three factions and four factions in Qingzhou, they also have a background and background.

But this doesn't mean that a small tiger station like him can ignore such a mighty and majestic man.

One of his arms is thicker than his own thigh, and he has swords, strong bows and armor.

He is a small inn shopkeeper, so he really can't be provoked.

"Stay in the hotel, and then bring me a jar of good wine and twenty catties of pork and mutton."

The strong man Xiong glanced at the shopkeeper of the post station and said, his voice was like thunder...

"Okay, guest officer, please take a seat, I'll let the kitchen prepare it for you."

Seeing that Xiong Zhuanghan spoke, the shopkeeper immediately replied, and then called Xiao Er to go down and get ready.

"Master, it's Captain Fumo!"

At the corner of Tiger Station, the little bookboy Chen An saw Chen Qi was curious, and immediately explained in a low voice.

Captain Fu Mo is a member of the Demon Slayer Division of the Tang Dynasty, who is responsible for dealing with the monsters and monsters in the Tang Dynasty.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, in order to frighten the world's demons and learn from the previous dynasty, a special division of demons was created, with the post of subduing demon school lieutenant.

The black armor on the body of a strong man like Xiong is the symbol of Captain Fumo.

Even the little bookboy Chen An recognized Captain Fu Mo, not to mention those well-informed merchants who traveled all over the world.

One by one immediately felt relieved, not only no longer afraid, but praised him as a hero who slays demons and demons.

Well, he is indeed a hero who slays demons and demons.

This body is strong.

With such a body size, it is easy to tear tigers, leopards and wolves raw, and you have to be afraid when encountering monsters.

Hearing everyone's praise, the strong man Xiong didn't say much, but nodded indifferently, then looked around, and walked towards the group of merchants who first talked about the ghosts in Dali Town.

"A certain family just heard from you that a demon appeared here, can you tell this family in detail."

That man, Xiong Zhuanghan, was not polite, he walked near the group of peddlers, and sat down directly, making the peddlers feel uneasy.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? A certain family is not a monster, so they can still eat you?"

"Quickly tell a certain family where the demon has appeared. This month's demon-killing index of a certain family is still a little bit worse. Just get rid of this demon and save you from running around."

The burly man hummed, his voice was like thunder, making people shudder.

"Returning to my lord, it is Dali Town, twenty miles away from here. The entire town of thousands of people has disappeared."

"My brother passed by the merchant yesterday, and when he realized something was wrong, he ran back immediately."

Facing the inquiry from the man Xiong Zhuanghan, the old man in the business stood up and told everything he had heard before.

"The entire town, with thousands of people, has all disappeared?"

Hearing the words, the strong man Xiong couldn't help but stare, and suddenly felt that things were difficult.

In the Tang Dynasty, it is not uncommon for monsters to harm people, but it is definitely not something ordinary monsters can do to directly slaughter a town.

Maybe it's a mid-level monster, or a big monster in the upper third level.

This kind of monster is not something he, a small captain of the seventh rank of the martial arts, can deal with.

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, the man Xiong Zhuanghan's heart sank, he immediately called the shopkeeper of the inn, and asked sharply: "Do you know about the incident in Dali Town, twenty miles away?".

Chapter 122 Demons and ghosts, the hexagram is smooth sailing! (seeking subscription)

The name of Captain Fumo is still very useful.

Under the questioning of the strong man Xiong, Chen Qi, who was hiding in a corner and eavesdropping, also understood what was going on in Dali Town.

As the passing businessman said, Dali Town began to be haunted more than a year ago.

It's just that at the beginning, the ghost didn't harm anyone, and the local government didn't pay much attention to it, and only sent a few government servants to come here a few times.

It is said that during this period, the government also invited Captain Fu Mo to come, but nothing was found, so they didn't pay attention.

About ten days ago, the ghosts in Dali Town suddenly erupted. Over 1000 people in the town disappeared overnight, causing panic in the surrounding villages.

Especially the villages near Dali Town were all empty, and they all fled away in fright.

After hearing the innkeeper's words, both Xiong Zhuanghan and Chen Qi couldn't help frowning.

Because of this kind of thing, strictly speaking, I really can't blame the local government.

After all, after the local government received the report, it not only dispatched government servants many times to check, but also invited the demon-slaying division Fumo Xiaowei.

The only regret is that neither the official yamen servant nor the demon-slaying commander Fumo Xiaowei failed to discover the existence of the demon in the first place, which led to the disaster in Dali Town.

"Is it that Yaomo 06 is too cunning, or is the inspection method of Demon Slayer too simple?"

"Or, the Captain Fumo who came to Dali Town for inspection was careless?"

For a moment, neither Chen Qi nor that man Xiong Zhuanghan couldn't help thinking.

After much deliberation, there is no result in the end, and I can only blame this damn world.

"Well, a certain family knows. After the rain clears, a certain family will go to Dali Town to investigate. Don't worry, a certain family will find a way to deal with the monsters entrenched in the town as soon as possible."
