As the night grew darker, the noisy streets during the day were deserted and deserted, and the doors and windows of every household were closed, only the rustling sound of the wind blowing on the thin leaves could be heard.

Chu Ji walked out from a dark alley, carefully sizing up the desolate scene with a pair of clear eyes, the full moon quietly climbed up to the cloud-covered sky, a great sense of oppression came silently, It's as if the sky is about to collapse in the next second.

He has been searching the nearby streets for more than an hour, but he has not found any clues. The monster detector is lying quietly on his waist, making no sound, as if this Wudu is really a peaceful place.

But the more peaceful, the more weird, Chu Ji lost his expression, raised his breath, and with his clothes rubbing against each other, he quietly landed on the eaves, and looked at Wudu, who was like an empty city, under the bright moonlight.

When Xu time arrived, nearly half of the houses had already turned off their lights. Seen from the sky, light and darkness intertwined, only a tower in the distance was lit with lanterns, and soldiers in full gear stood in rows, building the last line of protection for the invaded city. .

Chu Ji got nothing, but he was still unwilling to go back to the inn like this. After thinking about it, he simply sat down on the high eaves and held his breath.

The breath sinks in the dantian, and the state of mind suddenly becomes clear. There is only the breeze blowing by, and a few birdsong can be heard in the distance. If you listen carefully, it seems that there is the sound of a baby crying. The noisy sounds are mixed together, which is not very clear.

Chu Ji mobilized his internal energy again to concentrate his attention, frowning tightly, listening to all directions, collecting all the sounds from a few miles away into his ears one by one.

After three dog barks, an extremely slight and unusual sound caught Chu Ji's attention. Someone was gradually approaching, and the person was not far away from him. Only his fingertips rubbed against the ground when he touched the ground, which seemed to be very light. , but the original dog barking stopped abruptly and turned into whining.

Chu Ji suddenly opened his eyes, and it was pitch black, but it did not prevent him from judging the direction of the sound source. He raised his lips and smiled, and there was a flash of interest in his eyes - it seems that even if he can't catch a monster tonight, he can catch one Thief who steals dogs.

He didn't hesitate anymore, and rushed in the direction he heard. The wind blew wildly along the way, blowing half of his hair flying.

Under the brocade-like moonlight, Chu Ji stared intently, and saw a slender figure passing by like the wind from a distance, even faster than himself who practiced diligently on Cangyi Mountain , Chu Ji was slightly surprised, lowered his sense of existence to the minimum, and stared at the situation ahead.

The man was not far or close, but no matter how good Chu Ji's eyesight was, it was difficult to see the man's face clearly in the dark night. He saw the man landed lightly and silently, only the hem of his clothes fluttered lightly, and he heard a clear beam of light With a slightly chilly voice, "Where else do you want to escape?"

In the corner, a little milk dog that was as dark as the night whimpered, its watery eyes looked very pitiful in the night, Chu Ji couldn't help but sneered, thinking that the man with a handsome figure and a voice like a spring, could actually be a dog thief A disgraceful act.

The little black dog had no way to retreat, shivering in a ball in a corner. The man snorted coldly, then walked towards the little black dog. It was too late to speak, just as the man stretched out his sinful hand When he was about to capture the little black dog, Chu Ji had already picked up a small stone from the ground, clasped his thumb and middle finger, flicked it hard, and the small stone was thrown out with the speed of a gust of wind.

The stone pierced through the wind like a sword drawn from a bow, Chu Ji raised the corners of his lips confidently, if he hit that person, he might not even want to lift his hand for a month, but unexpectedly, when the stone was about to hit When the hand with sharp joints, the other party avoided it with lightning speed, and even before Chu Ji could react, he raised his voice and said in Chu Ji's direction, "Your Excellency, take advantage of people's surprise!" Sneak attack doesn't seem very good, does it?"

Chu Ji was still surprised to be able to avoid the stones and identify Chu Ji's position in such a quick time. He smiled coldly and stopped hiding. That person was five steps away.

Even though the two were so close, Chu Ji still found that he couldn't see each other's face clearly, he could only vaguely tell that his bones were good, and his eyes were especially bright at night.

"Your Excellency did such a thing at night," Chu Ji did not hide his sarcasm, and even bit his voice and chuckled to express his disdain, "It seems even worse."

The man was silent for a while, and then asked carefully, "Are you with this dog?"

Chu Ji even felt a teasing gaze lingering on him, making him have the illusion that he was out in the dark, and he compared himself with a dog when he realized that he was insulted. .

Chu Ji laughed back angrily, and killed the enemy first by injuring himself three hundred times, "Each to each other."

The other party didn't seem to expect Chu Ji to say that, and a very light laugh leaked out like this, looking extremely clear in the night, "So, do you really want to save this dog?"

Once Chu Ji made a move, there was no reason to take it back. He originally wanted to tease the dog thief because he had nothing to gain and was bored, but he never thought that the dog thief had a good figure, a good voice, and light work. , the verbal skill is also very good, it is really hard not to arouse Chu Ji's competitive spirit.

In Cangyi, apart from a few heads and Ru Zi, there are few people who are capable of confronting him. Now that he meets an interesting person, he naturally cannot let him go easily.

"Stop talking nonsense," Chu Ji preempted, his voice became a little lower, "Look at the fight."

Synchronizing with the sound is his figure like flowing water. Without waiting for the person to respond, Chu Ji stepped forward, and suddenly came to the person, getting closer, carefully trying to see the person's appearance, but heard With a chuckle, the other party has already taken a step back as silently as the wind, pulling away the intense tension between the two.

Facing a rare opponent, Chu Ji wanted to fight even more. He licked his dry lips slightly with the tip of his tongue, his eyes became clear and sharp, and he used [-]% of his skill to raise his palm.

He shot very fast, and he didn't allow the opponent to have a chance to evade. When he swung his palm with one hand, and when he was blocked, he instantly changed the angle and attacked the opponent's chest. Lightly defuse all Chu Ji's attacks.

Chu Ji couldn't touch him for a while, and he immediately put away his playful attitude, calmed down, and there was a gust of dark wind, and the air gradually rose, and Chu Ji hit him with his elbow. When covering it with his arm, he raised his lips and smiled, and swept his left foot hard.

Just when he thought he could gain the upper hand by taking advantage of his unpreparedness, the man seemed to have seen through his mind, soared up with both feet on the ground, and even suppressed Chu Ji's shoulders with both hands. When Chu Ji stretched out his palms to block him, A lock of the other party's hair slipped through his fingers, and then it was pulled away in a flash.

He thought that the other party would give him a slap, but the other party just used his shoulders to go around behind him, and then gave him a light push. This push was more like a joke.

Chu Ji staggered a little. The opponent's attitude of catching mice and only blindly avoiding his attack disappointed him to the extreme. He stood firm, turned around and said angrily, "What do you mean?"

The other party stood three steps away from him, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, it's all right to ask for some advice, but I have important things to do, so I can't be with you anymore."

As he spoke, he grabbed the little black dog by the neck right under Chu Ji's nose. Hearing the little black dog bark a few times, Chu Ji seemed to be being played by the collar, with an expression of become gnashing of teeth.

The man seemed to laugh, but he didn't know what he was laughing at. He just carried the little black dog and disappeared into the dark night, leaving behind a faint sentence, "There will be a period later."

Tonight, Chu Ji heard the man's playful chuckle one after another, and his heart was tumbling several times. He heard the sound and chased a few steps, but this time, no matter how he urged his heart to listen to the sound nearby, he could no longer detect it. trace of the man.

Chu Ji gritted his teeth bitterly. If there will be a later date, he will definitely take this brazen dog-stealer with his own hands, and let him have a quick fight with him, but he has never even seen the appearance of the dog-stealer clearly. , Even if it is the next time we meet, we may not be able to recognize him.

Chu Ji only blamed himself for not exerting all his strength to force that person to fight with him. He felt depressed, but he couldn't force it. He stayed outside for half an hour and found nothing, so he reluctantly went back to the inn .

The door of the inn had already been closed, so Chu Ji had no choice but to find the direction of his and Zeng Shu's rooms according to his memory, and leaned in through the half-covered window.

There was only one oil lamp that was about to burn out in the guest room, Chu Ji looked at the bed, Zeng Shu was sleeping soundly on the bed, his beard was trembling, and he dreamed of some delicious food and smacked his lips.

Chu Ji originally wanted to go to bed, but when he saw Zeng Shu hugging the quilt and taking up a lot of space on the bed, if he went to bed by himself, he might take the place of the quilt, he shuddered.

He had to lie on the table to make do for the whole night, and he didn't sleep comfortably. When he woke up, the enlarged and wrinkled face in front of him scared him so much that he couldn't help screaming, and hurriedly jumped up from the chair, looking at the Zeng Shu smiled with a loving expression on his face, his teeth itch from the cold.

The master and the apprentice went out from the inn after breakfast, last night Chu Ji had explored almost half of the streets in Wudu, and they had some clues when they walked around during the day.

All kinds of people came and went, monks in cassocks, swordsmen with swords in their hands, butchers with evil faces, all came for the monsters, Wudu dragons and snakes mixed together, it was very chaotic.

Because Zeng Shu was wearing a Taoist robe, the people believed that he was the Taoist priest who came to catch demons, and he answered every question. He told Zeng Shu about the eight murders in one hundred and fifty—there were murders in the east, west, south, and north of the city. It happened, the monster seemed to commit the crime at will, and there was no trace of it in the days after that, which made it impossible for the powerful people who rushed to Wudu to do it.

Chu Ji looked at the people coming and going on the street, and fell into deep thought. At this moment, the demon detector on his waist suddenly moved. Chu Ji hurriedly checked, and saw that the gray arc-shaped porcelain surface was now a piece of It was golden yellow, and the utensil vibrated slightly when held in the hand.

There are demons haunting nearby—after Chu Ji was slightly stunned, his blood boiled all over his body, his eyes flickered slightly, and his white teeth showed in a smile.
