Chapter VII Negotiation

Zhao Xiaohuan appeared in this mountain village when she got lost this time. She had no plan to catch monsters before, and she only had a machete on her body.

However, this machete is not ordinary. He soaked it in cinnabar and even carved a few runes on it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so bold as to get into the mountain with an ordinary long sword.

"Is this true?"

Several old guys in the village gathered together. After hearing Sun Min's words, they all looked pale. They didn't really take those few businessmen's words to heart before.

There are even old people who are too idle at home and have been chatting about businessmen these days. Now, when I think about it, I am sweating all over and dare to talk nonsense with monsters. And I am a bad-tempered eagle demon who can survive and will really brag about it with my descendants in the future.

"There is no shortage of yellow paper, but cinnabar, who has these?"

The white-haired old man spoke. He was the oldest in the village and had the highest prestige. Although he was still a little calmer, the wrinkles on his face were somewhat trembling.

"Or else go to town to buy it?"

"I'm confused, isn't that the merchant also leaving today? If he wants to meet them on the road, the eagle demon caught the person and ate him, how could he have the life to buy it?"

The white-haired old man Qian smashed the crutch made of a tree fork in his hand to the ground, and then raised the crutch with concern, fearing that he might have disturbed the snake demon hiding under the village.

"Our village had a severe drought a few years ago, and almost no harvest was achieved. It was all due to the surplus grains and wild animals on the mountain. Now it is a disaster to encounter such a thing again."

"How did the Taoist priest say it?"

Qian Laohua stared at Sun Min with his eyes: "Don't nag, be honest, it really doesn't work. Let's wait for a day or two and get some money to the town to invite an expert to come and get rid of the demons."

"Before this, you must not disturb the snake demon, otherwise we will all die."

Sun Min usually likes to nag, but his face is awkward, and his old face is stiff: "The Taoist priest said it's okay, he can handle it."

"I'm too young."

"I have no hair on my lips and I can't do things safely."

"I heard you, what kind of ability can a child who is only 11 or 20 years old have? I'm afraid he said that for the sake of face."

"However, since this little Taoist priest has such ability, his master must be powerful. Otherwise, let's go to Yunshan Temple to invite his master to subdue demons?"

Mr. Qian’s considerations are quite thoughtful, which is also an ordinary person’s idea. The main reason is that Zhao Xiaohuan is too young.

"This is also true, but it may take three or five days to walk the official road."

"I don't know if something will happen if I have been delayed for so long."

Everyone was full of sorrow. It was easy to walk on the official road, but it was a long way to go to the official road in their village. Moreover, you must not be able to rush to the road at night, and you cannot encounter tigers, leopards, jackals, etc., and you will lose your life.

Especially now that this incident happened in the village, no one dared to rush to the road at night.

As for horses, how could there be horses in a mountain village like them? There are only a few old cows, and every family usually pays them as their lives.

"What should I do?"

The house was full of sighs. If they didn't know there was a monster in the village, it would be nothing. They slept very comforted last night. Even before Sun Min called them about this, they were leisurely on their faces, and some even planned to carry hoes to the ground to work.

But when they knew this, let alone they couldn't sleep tonight, they felt anxious and anxious now. An ordinary sound could scare them to the point of being frightened.

When these old people in the village appeared in front of Zhao Xiaohuan, everyone in the village knew that there was a real monster.

After all, there are only a few dozen families in the village, and such a huge thing is impossible to hide.

People are in panic.

"Go and invite my master..."

Zhao Xiaohuan pondered, feeling distressed. It would be useless to invite the Master of the Confucian. The Master of the Confucian chanted at most a few Taoist scriptures to suppress the snake demons?

"The owner is already gray-haired and old, so it's hard."

Zhao Xiaohuan sighed, looking embarrassed. Indeed, the audience's age is older than the old guys in their village, and it is indeed impossible to withstand the bumps on the road.

In recent years, there have been very few going down the mountain.

"Tao Master, are you sure?"

Mr. Qian spoke bitterly, it was really not possible. They could only leave the village together for the time being. Although it was miserable, it was better than being swallowed by a snake demon.

I left first, and asked an expert to catch the monster and came back, but the people in the village were going to suffer outside for a while.

"If there is no accident, it should be able to kill monsters."

You can't say anything too much. Now Zhao Xiaohuan also knows from the mouth of the eagle demon that it is a snake demon, and even the truth is not confirmed yet.

However, the entrance of the snake demon must be in the previous courtyard. When he was inside the house, he felt a cold breath emanating from the bedding in the corner of the wall.

There is definitely a huge entrance to the cave.

Snakes like shade, and it is indeed very likely that monsters underground are snake monsters.

But if there is a hole, there may be naughty children in the village who go in to play on weekdays, but why didn't they find that there are a lot of weirdness in it?

That's why Zhao Xiaohuan couldn't join forces with the merchant.

"I'm going to find out what the situation is going on first and make a decision."

Zhao Xiaohuan got up. He had been wiping the blade with yellow paper just now. Although the eagle demon had transformed, it was a bird in the air. How dare he enter the cave?

Even if there is only one snake demon in the cave, the eagle demon dares not enter. It is true that the eagle defeats the snake, but if it enters the cave and cannot fly, and the advantage dissipates, can it be that the snake demon will be killed by pecking at it with its sharp mouth?

"Have you left?"

Zhao Xiaohuan looked up and said that there were no one around the yard except these old people, but there were already people outside the yard.

Almost all the people in the village were around the yard, and no one dared to stay at home, for fear that the snake demon would drill a hole in the ground.

Even no one dared to fetch water in the village now, for fear of a giant snake coming out of the well.

"I've left, I've just left."

There were people in the crowd around outside, and they didn't dare to get close. After all, there was an eagle demon among the three merchants, but they just watched someone leave from a distance.

"Has anyone been to that yard? Is there any big hole in the house?"

Zhao Xiaohuan asked, although he believed the words of the demons and the other two, he still had to figure out what he should ask, so as not to make any misjudgment.

"I've been in. My child is naughty and doesn't go home after being beaten. I found it in the broken house. There were no holes inside, and there were only some broken pieces of soil that fell from the house."

A honest middle-aged man scratched his head and spoke. Although he didn't know what was strange in the dilapidated house, he was still full of fear.
