Two catfish weighing hundreds of kilograms dug a hole by the stream and hid, but were found by warriors.

The stream was too shallow for them to pass through, and they were too conspicuous in their human form, so they had to resort to this last resort. Unexpectedly, they were found out and had to beg for mercy.

"Hero, spare your life!"

"Spare your life!"

"We are not soldiers!"

The warrior didn't let them go, he just snorted coldly, took the spear dropped by the shrimp general next to him, and stabbed them to death with a few shots.

The other warriors were not idle either.

Some lit torches and went into the Dragon King's cave together to search for monster treasures.

Some picked up the scales of the yellow-scaled guards, the carapace of the shrimp and crab generals, and picked up the bone swords and spears. Some said they wanted to keep them as souvenirs, some said they might be able to sell them as rare items in the market, some said

To make a close-fitting yellow scale inner armor, some say you need to grind a pair of breast shields.

In the distance, in the center of the tiankeng, Taoists were walking slowly.

Lin Jue stopped in front of a large pit, looked down, and then leaned over to pick up a withered flower bulb from the pit.

It was just a short branch, the root wrapped into a ball, with a flower blooming on it, but it was all blackened and withered. When Lin Jue picked it up, the dry pear flower on the top immediately fell off.

"call……"

Lin Jue blew a breath and wiped it with his hands.

A lot of debris suddenly fell from the air, revealing a golden bead the size of a fingernail inside.

The beads are round and smooth, weighing about two taels in the palm of your hand.

"High-quality gold essence..."

This is probably the biggest gain from this battle.

There is another breeze around me.

Lin Jue turned around and saw that Fuyao was coming on the wind and landed lightly on his side.

At this time it became as big as a cat again.

His own fox has inherited the magical power of the Yaohua Empress, and has the instinct to absorb magic and magical powers from the pure energy naturally exuded by monsters after winning a battle. Lin Jue naturally knows what it just did - probably to face the Dragon King,

The bodies of the Chicken Immortal and the Rhinoceros General were slapped in retaliation, and then they just took a breath.

But he saw the fox looking up at him and speaking to him:

"Rat! Got away!"

The voice is clear and the words are short.

"It's not your fault. The rat demon can escape from the earth. As long as you don't have restrained magical powers, or you design to lure it into an urn, or you chase it until your mana is exhausted, you won't be able to catch it." Lin Jue nodded and

He put this gold essence into his arms and carried it close to his body. At the same time, he comforted and praised Fuyao, "You have already helped me a lot."

"Mark!"

"Huh?" Lin Jue was startled for a moment, and when he realized what he was doing, he was very surprised. He couldn't help but lowered his head and stroked its head, "You are still awesome!"

"Fox! Smart!"

"Natural and natural..."

"Chase!"

"Of course we have to avenge the killing. We can't let it escape this time no matter what!" Lin Jue said firmly, "But there is no need to rush, there are more important things to do right now!"

"嘤?"

"Walk!"

Lin Jue turned around immediately.

The fox also turned around.

When several Jianghu warriors behind them saw them, the previous scene of the Taoist fighting the demon king alone and fighting with the demon king seemed to flash through his mind. They quickly clasped their fists and saluted, and asked as soon as they opened their mouths:

"May I ask which god the real person is?"

"Huh?" Lin Jue heard this and had to reply, "I'm just a Taoist, not a god."

After a while he said to them again:

"But all the heroes who can come here today and slay demons with the swords in their hands are already gods to the many people who are being imprisoned in the dungeons as blood food by the monsters at this time, so why should they respect any other gods?

?”

"Dungeon?"

Only then did many Jianghu warriors remember what Luo Monk had said before.

"Come with me!"

Lin Jue saluted them in return.

The fox had already understood where he was going from his words, so he jumped lightly and rode the wind forward. His figure was light and graceful, like a carefree mountain elf, and it reminded people of the scene just now.

A three-tailed white fox with a head about the same size as a tiger, playing tricks on a rhinoceros.

A group of warriors followed quickly.

Passing through a small cave, there was a foul smell inside, and there were faint sounds of crying and hoarse wailing. Many warriors in the martial arts looked at each other and immediately quickened their pace.

There was only a dim light in the deep dungeon, no sunlight, and no one was guarding it at this time.

I don't know how many people were detained inside.

Most of them were common people on both sides of the Wei River, and there were also literati and scholars who were sailing by but were overturned, and even wealthy families, singers and dancers.

Most of the people living on both sides of the Weishui River, or those who often travel here, have heard rumors of a big demon eating people here. However, the rumors are so diverse that it is difficult to tell whether they are true or false. Some people do not believe it.

It is just regarded as a legend like the stories about monsters and ghosts in other places. Some people believe it, but they either half-believe it or they still live or travel here for various reasons.

But it wasn't until they were caught by the demon king, locked up in a cave, and told that they were going to be used as food at the demon king's birthday banquet that they truly understood the horror of the rumors.

More than ten days passed in a row.

Sometimes they feel like livestock being imprisoned for slaughter, and sometimes they feel they are worse than livestock, like fish and shrimp in a fish basket.

It's all because selling and slaughtering livestock in the market will make the livestock live a little better. They won't be crowded with people, and people who are seriously ill and dying will not be left alone. The dead people will not be left alone, and the living will be left alone.

They were crowded together with the sick and the dead, so much so that they could still see bones around them. They were victims who had been killed so many years ago.

Even the fish basket is inferior.

Although the fish in the fish basket are crowded together, no matter whether they are alive or dead, they will be cleaned every time they are empty, and the dead ones will be quickly sold at a low price or thrown away.

These monsters don't even care about this at all.

Until two days ago, another monster came to tell them that this year's Monster King's birthday banquet would not eat people, and an expert would use their hair and nails to make elixirs. In this way, they escaped the "longevity pass". But obviously, so did he.

It is impossible to let go because of this. Those monsters also said that when they catch new people, they will still eat them. People who are dead and people who cannot grow hair will also be eaten.

Here we are both waiting to die and suffering. The frightened people have already broken their throats from crying, leaving only the sounds of wailing and sighing, crying for mercy, and wailing.

Until this day.

For some reason, there was an earth-shattering rumbling sound outside and overhead, like thunder or an earth dragon turning over.

In desperation, some people speculated whether it was the gods who were exorcising the demons?

At least there is a little more hope.

But everyone also knows that it is said that this monster has been causing trouble here for many years. If there were gods who wanted to come to get rid of the monster, they would have come long ago, and they would not be caught here at all.

There was no daylight in the dungeon, the time was unknown, and the rumbling sound lasted for unknown lengths of time before it finally stopped.

Not long after, there were footsteps in the cave.

"Pengpengpeng..."

The brazier on the wall lit up inexplicably, one after another, lighting up the cave and reflecting the many figures in front of them.

Not gods and priests, not heavenly soldiers and generals, but some martial arts warriors dressed in commoners.

There are also two Taoists and a fox.

Although these martial arts warriors all carry weapons, are unkempt and ferocious, and are all covered with injuries and bloodstains, they look like demons who have just arrived in the world, but it can also be seen that these warriors are different from the demons in human form they have seen before.

There is an obvious difference. Even after seeing them, some of these warriors had obviously red eyes.

All doubts were diluted by the hope of survival.

But as soon as hope arose in everyone's hearts, they saw the two Taoists and the fox again. Seeing that they were the Taoists who were helping the demon king make elixirs, they suddenly felt frightened and shrank back.

"Don't be afraid!

"We are not monsters, nor are we evil people. We are here to slay the monsters and save you all."

The man spoke gently, saluted them, and explained to them:

“What happened that day was really helpless.

"The demon king here is a dragon, who does many evil things and eats countless people.

"It has been entrenched here for many years. It has a very high level of Taoism and has almost become an immortal. There are also two guest generals under its command. However, our cultivation is shallow and our Taoism is meager. We can only design it to let him eat the poisonous elixir we refined. And in front of you,

Only with the help of heroes can we be sure of victory.

"The reason why I took your hair and nails was just to let you live to this day. It was a helpless move. You can just follow the ancients and cut your hair instead of beheading, and exchange your life."

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.

When the warriors behind the Taoist heard this, they suddenly understood and immediately burst into an uproar.

No wonder Luo Gong wanted them to ambush and wait in the distance!

No wonder they were already fighting when they came here.

Isn't this like entering the tiger's den alone and walking on the tip of a knife?

For a moment, I couldn't help but marvel at the strategy and courage of the two Taoist priests in front of me, and admire them endlessly.

Then he quickly explained to many people:

"Yes! I testify! The monsters outside have been eliminated! You can see it when you go out!"

"You can go out now!"

"Don't be afraid! I got my head back!"

"I'll unlock it!"

Immediately, a warrior came forward, holding a tiger-headed sword with a ring, and struck hard at the dungeon iron rope. The long sword cut through the air, which was a force that could be seen with the naked eye.

All I heard was a snap!

The thick iron rope broke with the sound!

"Squeak~"

A sour sound, but in the dungeon at this time, it undoubtedly became the clearest and sweetest note, creating unstoppable ripples in everyone's hearts.

Many people looked at each other in shock. They wanted to move forward, but they were afraid. They wanted to escape, but they were also afraid that a guillotine would come up to them after they walked out of the door. All of this was just a trick played by monsters to play tricks on people.

However, they saw the Taoist priest in front of them saluting them.

"If you take one step forward, you will be born in heaven."

Finally, someone staggered forward, and then it seemed to trigger a chain reaction, with hundreds of people rushing out.

Taoists and warriors had no choice but to get out of the way.

The first person rushed out of the narrow cave and breathed in the fresh fresh air filled with blood. The sun hit their faces, which made them feel warm and unable to open their eyes, so they had to cover their eyes with their hands.

After I got used to it, I couldn't help but feel cold.

There is a chaotic battlefield outside——

Not only was the grass and ground in a mess, there were corpses of monsters everywhere. Some of them still looked like humans, and some had changed back to their original shapes, which were giant shrimp, crab, and fish monsters, and there was also a decapitated monster as tall as a man.

A huge rooster and a human-shaped rhinoceros more than one foot tall.

There were weapons scattered everywhere, rubble on the ground, craters, and even the cliffs seemed to be broken.

He also believed that this was the battlefield left by heavenly soldiers and generals.

The people coming from behind bumped into him unconsciously.

But there was no movement after that.

The person who was the first to rush out of the cave looked back, only to see that the people behind him were either blinded by the light like him at the beginning, or they were like him just now. After they recovered, they opened their eyes and were immediately caught by the reflection in their eyes.

I was so shocked by this scene that I was speechless.

People kept rushing out of the cave behind, and even fell to the ground in the crowd. But seeing this scene, it was still the same, and I forgot about everything else.

It took a long time for anyone to come to their senses.

"immortal……"

At that moment, an unknown number of people shouted the word "god" and knelt down towards the two Taoists and warriors who came out from behind, kowtowing repeatedly and crying out for escape.

"We are not gods, so please don't be too polite. After you calm down, go out of the cave in front, which is by the river. You can leave along the river. After that, please go home." Although Lin Jue tried to persuade him, he still couldn't.

He didn't stop them one by one, he just left calmly.

In the bright light that made it difficult to open one's eyes, the two Taoists and the fox walked farther and farther away. Only the fox's childlike innocence turned back to look at them a few more times, his eyes full of curiosity.

The martial artist was laughing and joking, and also walked away.
