Chapter Thirty-Five: Fighting Demons

  At that time, I was shocked to see this scene. Before, I had heard many legends about witches and Taoist priests, saying they would deploy troops, manipulate corpses, and scatter beans into soldiers. At that time, I felt that what was said was too mysterious and unbelievable, but now I have seen it with my own eyes.

  These paper men were like hand in hand, neat and uniform, getting closer and closer to the position just now. When they were about to get close, all the paper men surrounded the place where I was standing earlier into a circle. Xiao Rou had an extra large talisman in her hand at this time, and with one blow, it actually ignited, waiting behind those paper men.

  But at this time, the feeling of fear has disappeared, and I even have some expectations. I was thinking that Xiaoyu, who looks so weak and gentle, would deal with this demon king. How will he be taken out?

  "Charge!" Little Rong shouted at this time.

  All the paper men rushed to a point and collided, and when all the paper men collided together, a beam of light suddenly burst out and shot up to several meters high.

  "Still want to run? Run with your brother-in-law!" The sunglasses hero shouted, opening one of the Gu. At this time, a seemingly existing and non-existent soul was released from inside, and it suddenly jumped into the air.

  Then came a series of "bang...""bang..." "slap..." "slap..." impact sounds.

  Xiao Rou continued to manipulate the paper people, arranging them in two rows. The hands of the paper people stretched out, as if waiting for something. At that moment, I found my palms sweating again, but this time it wasn't fear, it was tension. It seemed that the possibility of catching this heart demon was too great.

  "Whoosh......" At this moment, a beam of light fell from mid-air. It landed on the ground and disappeared, and all the paper men who had been prepared in advance rushed up, one by one, two by two, and pressed down on top of it.

  Xiao Rou quickly followed, rushing towards one of the paper men and setting it on fire. The entire body of the paper man was ignited at once. After one was lit up, all the others also caught fire. However, the flames that burned out were quite strange, a special blue color.

  At that time, I heard a heart-wrenching scream, which was my own voice. Was the demon in my heart burned away?

  The Masked Knight then opened the other two talismans, releasing many soul-like objects from them. He was seen running around the area where the burning paper man was, and those soul-like objects followed him as he ran.

  Although it was a bit tense at that time, it reminded me of a game activity I played when I was a kid, throwing handkerchiefs.

  After running a few laps, I realized that this was not just a simple rotation. The movements of the sunglasses hero were getting faster and faster, to the point where my eyes couldn't even keep up with how many sunglasses heroes there were.

  "Ah?!" At this moment, another heart-wrenching howl erupted, and a beam of light burst out, landing directly in front of me. At that time, I subconsciously retreated hastily, because I was clear that this was my heart demon.

  After the light beam came, another small team of paper people quickly pulled each other's hands and came over. This time, it wasn't like they were pouncing on the ground, but instead walked directly to my side and actually lifted me up. At that moment, I felt like I was floating, because these paper people didn't have a fleshy feeling, their movements were very fast, and quickly brought me to the side of Mo Jing Xiu.

  "Hey, are you okay, kid?" the sunglasses guy asked me.

  "It's nothing! I just..."

  But before I could finish speaking, these paper men immediately let go of me and threw me to the ground again. At that time, what hurt was ouch...

  After these paper men left, they immediately came to Xiaorou's side. Looking at Xiaorou, she had already lit several incense sticks at some point. The Bagua plate in her hand also reappeared, and she kept muttering something in her mouth. After muttering for a while, she suddenly threw the Bagua plate on the ground.

  "Take it!" Little Rong shouted!

  Only the Bagua plate was faintly flashing with light, and it started to shake violently. The movement was very large, and a cloud of dust rose around it. However, after shaking for a few times, the Bagua plate stopped moving again.

  "Oh no!" Xiao Rou's expression was a bit tense at this moment, and she hastily shouted to the sunglasses guy: "Chen Sheng, hurry up, he's going to escape."

  Actually, the sunglasses guy is already running this way. After Xiaoyu pointed in a direction, he jumped out with a "whoosh" and ran tens of meters before suddenly stopping. He looked around and slowly walked back.

  "It's over, let it go." The sunglasses-wearing hero said to us as he took off his glasses, "It actually broke through the barrier I set up. All I can say is, too awesome!"

  "Ah!" Xiao Rou sighed, "I really didn't think it would be so powerful, burning away six paper men and still not working. What a waste of effort, can't even catch it!"

  It was already clear from the conversation between the two that this demon had escaped. At that time, I was stunned, and I was very aware of the strength of these two people in front of me. If they couldn't catch the demon even when working together, then wasn't I done for?

  Xiao Rou seemed to have seen through my thoughts and came over to me, saying: "Although this heart demon has escaped, it won't be able to appear in front of you for a while. We beat him up pretty badly."

  "But he will still come back, right?" Actually, I knew it was a pointless question, the answer was already certain.

  As expected, Xiaorou nodded slightly. At this time, Mojingxia also came to my side and said to me: "Two pieces of news, one good and one bad, which one do you want to hear?"

  "Is there still good news?" I didn't even believe myself.

  "Of course, have I ever deceived you?" The sunglasses-clad hero looked very cool.

  "No, let's hear the bad news first and save the good for last." I said casually.

  The sunglasses hero let out a sigh of relief, pointing to his forehead covered in sweat, "See? To get rid of the heart demon, I'm exhausted, and I wasted several talismans. This time, I won't let you accompany me in loss, but next, you'll have to drag this big turtle by yourself, don't you have any opinions?"

  At first, I was wondering why the bad news. After hearing this, my heart felt much more relaxed, and I directly asked the sunglasses guy: "No problem, I also wanted to drag this turtle alone, but what's the good news?"

  Xiao Rou then took the lead and said to me, "Chen Sheng is just joking with you, you're still injured now, it's not suitable for heavy labor." After saying this, she looked at Mirror Man and said, "Right, Chen Sheng?"

  "Huh?" The sunglasses-wearing hero was taken aback, then said helplessly, "Fine, who let you, this Bodhisattva, be present here. You can go ahead and announce the good news."

  "Good news is that your heart demon is so fierce, which means you are also a fierce person. The ability of the heart demon is usually only half of the original owner's. It seems that you are absolutely not an ordinary person."

  "Isn't he an ordinary person? Is he a medium?" I asked further.

  Xiao Rou shook her head and said to me: "I don't know about this, it's too detailed, you have to ask Witch Grandma, she knows all the answers."

  It seems that I must see this witch after all, as it appears that all the answers are on her body. Tang Bingxue asked me to find the witch, and Xiao Rou also asked me to meet the witch. And I myself am particularly eager to see her.

  "In that case, let's hurry up and set off," said the sunglasses-wearing knight.

  "Yes, let's go to Fengmen Village quickly, Xiao Rou. I've had enough of such days." I said in agreement.

  "But now it's already late at night, the battle just now consumed too much energy. If we encounter a Hyakki Yakou or an Onryo crossing, I'm afraid we won't be able to cope. In such a yin place, it's easy for this kind of scene to appear." Little Rong said with some worry.

  "What is Hyakki Yakou and Oni no Koe?"

  It can be seen from Xiao Rou's expression that the two things she said are not simple. This is the first time I've seen Xiao Rou with a worried expression.

  The sunglasses hero patted me on the shoulder and said: "Your question is indeed a problem, but I suggest you Baidu. This can't be explained!"
