Chapter 204 A Wolf Demon Appears
Jumping out of the window of Baihua Building, Shen Qing spread his arms lightly, his figure was as nimble as a cat, and landed quietly.
He looked back at Baihua Tower.
Now that the matter between Guan Yunjian and Guan Yunjian is over, the next step is to deal with the scourge of the wolf demon.
This is his duty as the Chief of Defense Forces, and if he doesn't do it well, it will be easy for him to fail.
I've been delayed here for a long time.
After Shen Qing covered up the blood stains, he found his treasure horse and walked away, heading straight to Changqiao Town.
…
On the Chi Road outside Yongcheng City.
A black shadow whizzed past like an arrow piercing the wind.
Chai Feng was originally a good horse, but under Shen Xiaoshan's careful care, his leg strength gradually improved, and even after running back and forth twice, there was no sign of exhaustion or slowing down.
After another two moments or so, Shen Qing walked to the Qinghe River outside Changqiao Town again.
At this time, outside the long bridge where he had fought, he could only vaguely see blood stains on the ground, and the body had disappeared.
It's time for Liu Sangui to deal with it.
Shen Qing lightly tightened the reins, slowing down the shiny-colored horse chasing the wind, and stepped onto the bridge of Changqiao Town.
The horse's hooves tap lightly on the bridge, making a crisp sound.
After chasing the wind for a while, he was breathing heavily as his chest rose and fell, but he still walked out in an orderly pace.
Amidst the regular sound of hoofbeats, Shen Qing had entered Changqiao Ancient Town without realizing it.
Outside the ancient town, there are three huge archways erected across the road. On both sides of the road, there are patches of golden rice fields.
When Shen Qing appeared above, many villagers who were bending down to work raised their waists and looked at the Weiwu Chasi on horseback.
They were tying rice in their hands while looking at Shen Qing.
There was a bit of fear on the numb face.
To them, the officials in Yongzhou City are no different from demons and disasters.
They are all cannibals.
The only difference between the two is that the demon only eats people in a few mouthfuls, while the officials in Yongzhou City eat people for decades, for generations.
Seeing Shen Qing walking on the road, many villagers who were walking with him were afraid of standing on the same road as him.
Even the woodcutter carrying the firewood threw it away, jumped into the field with the others, and watched him leave with fear.
After they could no longer see him, these people seemed to be relieved and walked onto the road again.
When Shen Qing saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Unexpectedly, the officials of Zhou Dynasty were so unpopular.
After not walking for too long, he entered the intricate residential area of Changqiao Town.
A series of simple thatched houses scattered in front of Shen Qing.
There is an elegant manor in the middle, located among the many thatched houses, which is unusually eye-catching.
On the outskirts of the residential area, a servant dressed in simple cloth suddenly caught Shen Qing's eyes.
From time to time he looked around and stood at the door.
Seeing Shen Qing's figure, his face suddenly showed a look of surprise, and he hurriedly came up to meet Shen Qing and grabbed Shen Qing's reins.
The servant smiled apologetically and said, "Master, our master specifically asked me to wait for you here."
"Who is your master?"
"It's right here."
Li Zheng is the mayor here.
Shen Qing said expressionlessly: "Lead the way!"
"yes."
Not long after Shen Qingcai finished killing the man, there was a vague evil aura about him, which almost made the servant tremble physically and mentally, and he did not dare to neglect.
Under the respectful guidance of the servant, Shen Qing was brought to a manor through the stone path.
The gate of the manor is majestic, with majestic stone lions on both sides.
Before Shen Qing could step into the threshold, a burst of hearty and expectant laughter penetrated the door and was the first to welcome his arrival.
"Haha, Master Chaosi, we have been waiting for you!"
A middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing, dressed in fine clothes, heard the news and couldn't wait to go to the door to greet him personally.
Shen Qing dismounted and said: "We are here, Shen Qing, the military commander of the lower bodyguard. We are here to subdue the demon on the orders of the chief sergeant."
"It turns out that it's Chief Shen who's in front of you." Li Zheng stepped forward quickly, clasped his fists in his hands, and bowed deeply.
"I don't know what your last name is?"
"My surname is Zhou."
Shen Qing asked: "The Zhou family in Yongzhou?"
"My ancestors have been in the fifth server for a long time since my generation, and they have no contact with the Zhou family in the county. But they still have some family glory."
Li Zhengzhou Baoyin said frankly: "Sir, please come and sit inside. I have prepared a banquet. Please!"
"The banquet is no longer necessary, but it is more important to get rid of the demons." Shen Qing looked at the green mountains in the distance and said, "Where are my subordinates?"
Zhou Baoyin was stunned for a moment and said, "Sir, not long after he arrived, he went to the mountain to search for clues about the wolf demon."
Shen Qing frowned, when did Liu Sangui become so responsible for slaying demons?
In his eyes, although Liu Sangui looks conscientious on weekdays, he is actually very naughty. He is the type who procrastinates as much as he can, and it is better to do less than to do more.
It was impossible to rush to check the demon before he arrived.
A little strange.
Shen Qing looked at Zhou Baoyin again and asked, "Tell me what's going on with this wolf demon?"
After observing his words and expressions, Zhou Baoyin's face became solemn.
He clasped his hands into fists, bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Reporting to your lord, the earliest word about this matter should have happened a month ago."
"There is a woodcutter named Zhang in our town. He wants to chop wood and burn charcoal as usual, but he didn't expect..."
Zhou Baoyin paused, a hint of barely perceptible fear flashed in his eyes, and continued: "After he went up the mountain for the last time, he didn't come back for several days. When I found him, there was only a skeleton left, and he was gnawed to pieces."
"Since then, woodcutters who went into the mountains often heard strange roars coming from the forest, which were not like the sounds of ordinary wild beasts. From time to time, people disappeared, causing panic."
"Some people even saw a huge wolf. Now there are more and more strange things in the forest, and they are all said to be the work of the wolf demon. We really have no way, so we come to ask for help from the adults."
"Awoo!"
While talking, a wolf howl came.
Shen Qing seemed to have noticed something, and his eyes gradually cast to a small hill outside the town.
He used the skill of his eyesight to look carefully.
I saw a huge wolf demon with green eyes flashing, grinning with fangs exposed and making a low roar.
Zhou Baoyin trembled, pointed and shouted: "Ah, it's a wolf demon, that's the wolf demon."
"Sir. Now because of the wolf demon, many woodcutters in the town dare not go up the mountain for many days. Their families can't even afford to eat. I hope you can help us."
The wolf came, so coincidental?
Shen Qing hesitated.
But since it has already appeared, it doesn't need to go to the mountains to look for it slowly.
Shen Qing directly took off the heavy bow hanging on the horse's back, pulled out a black iron arrow, and put it on the bowstring.
He pulled the bow to the full moon, stretched out his arms, and pointed the arrow at the green woods in front.
"What does the master want to do? Can the wolf demon be killed with just this bow and arrow?"
The servant standing beside the head of the family took a few steps forward and whispered in the head's ear.
Zhou Baoyin squinted and said: "Don't worry, let's see first."
