There is a cave at the deepest part of the mountain stream. It is completely bare around the cave and there is no grass at all.
This is the lair of the old demon Zhang Yang. Apart from itself, few monsters usually come near it, for fear that if they are not careful, they will be caught by the moody old demon as a snack and have their essence sucked away.
Both humans and monsters have essence, and the amount of essence determines the strength of humans and monsters.
When many big monsters are injured, they will choose to absorb the essence of small monsters or humans to restore their strength.
Monsters like Zhang Yang Lao Yao are moody and vindictive. Whenever he is in a bad mood, he will capture a few little monsters and absorb their essence, causing the monsters in Zhang Zheshan to be very afraid of him.
From this we can see that Chang Fa can stay safely beside the old monster Zhang Yang and has a certain prestige among the monsters in Zhangzhe Mountain. He does have some abilities and is not as useless as he says.
Chang Fa smiled bitterly and said, "I can't help it. Although I am a demon, I also want to live. I can only work hard to find a way to survive, serve the old demon with all my heart, and try to prevent it from eating us."
Gu Jiu smiled and didn't respond.
The Taoist nuns, on the other hand, showed some sympathy on their faces. They felt that being a demon was not easy. Although there were intrigues and conflicts of interest among humans, it was at least better than that of demons. Most of the time, they would cover themselves with a fig leaf of etiquette and morality and act with caution.
The survival of demons and monsters is even more cruel. They speak with strength and don’t care about right or wrong.
Qin Huang sneered, "Don't come here to show your pity. You are pitiful, but aren't those who were enslaved and killed by demons and monsters pitiful?"
The nuns looked startled but quickly came to their senses.
Yes, Chang Fa's words are pitiful. What have humans done wrong to be persecuted by demons and monsters? Many demons regard humans as food for two-legged sheep, but humans do not regard demons as food.
After all, it is just the east wind overwhelming the west wind. There is no right or wrong in the battle between humans and demons, it is just for survival.
When everyone arrived in front of the cave, a strong fishy smell hit their noses, mixed with the terrible smell of sheep, which made people step back.
The nuns were horrified and almost suffocated.
Qin Huang covered his nose. "How long has it been since this goat monster took a bath? The whole cave stinks like this? This is comparable to biochemical poison gas. Are you monsters so unhygienic?"
Chang Fa smiled awkwardly but politely, and said reluctantly: "In fact, most monsters are hygienic. I just like cleanliness..."
Gu Jiu couldn't stand such air pollution, so she took out a mask and put it on. The mask perfectly avoided the chemical gas attack that was heading straight for the door, and she walked in.
Qin Huang also took out an air filtering mask from his collection and put it on.
The nuns looked at each other, took out a towel to cover the lower half of their faces, held their breath and followed.
The cave is very spacious, and there are several caves of different sizes inside. Based on the conditions of these caves, we can guess their purposes.
In one of the caves, there was a naked beautiful banshee lying. The banshee was sleeping, and suddenly she found someone breaking in. She glared at him, and was about to scream, but was tied up tightly by a gust of hair.
The one who tied her up was naturally Chang Fa.
The banshee glared at Chang Fa, her beautiful eyes spitting fire, and she began to whine.
Gu Jiu looked at the banshee. If you ignore the scales on her skin, she is actually a very beautiful woman. Judging from the scales, she should be some kind of scaly monster.
Qin Huang only took a glance and immediately turned his head away with disgust.
The nuns blushed, even though they were all women, they felt embarrassed to see a naked witch, and they were very innocent.
Qin Huang asked: "Could this witch be the wife of old witch Zhang Yang?" He felt unhappy. He already had a wife, but he still dared to covet the eldest lady. He deserved to be killed by the eldest lady.
Chang Fa continued to smile awkwardly but politely, "She is the concubine that old demon Zhang Yang has taken in recently."
"You monsters are so shameless that you run naked in broad daylight." Qin Huang looked at them with contempt again.
Chang Fa: “…” Isn’t it normal for monsters to be shameless
Gu Ji ignored the witch and went towards the treasure room of the old monster Zhang Yang.
It was called a treasure room, but in fact it was just a crude cave filled with a mess of things, including unknown white bones, glittering gold and silver jewelry, various animal skins, clothes, and stones... The nuns were dazzled by the sight, and they could not identify many of the things.
The number of gold, silver and jewelry alone is not small. I didn’t expect that the old monster Zhang Yang is actually a rich monster.
Gu Jiu didn't look at the bones, gold, silver and jewelry, but pulled out a yellowed book from under the pile of debris.
I don't know what material this book is made of. It looks like it has a long history, but it is very durable and has not rotted because it was thrown into a corner. When you open it, you can still feel the flexibility of the pages.
After flipping through a few pages, Gu Jiu realized that this was a cultivation method that was quite profound and only suitable for humans. It was useless for monsters, so it was no wonder that the old monster Zhang Yang casually threw it aside.
"Miss, what is this?" Qin Huang asked curiously.
Gu Jiu handed it to him casually.
Qin Huang flipped through it, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he said, "Miss, this technique seems to be very advanced. Let's learn it together."
Gu Jiu nodded and asked him to put it away. He continued to rummage through the pile of debris. Apart from this martial arts technique, he didn't find anything useful. He waved to the group of Taoist nuns.
Mu Ying came over with her fellow apprentice sisters.
The air in the cave was so bad that even with veils wrapped around their faces, the nuns still couldn't block out the odor and felt dizzy.
When Gu Jiu signaled them to collect the gold, silver and jewelry on the ground, the Taoist nuns subconsciously put them into the space in their sleeves.
The banshee who was tied up by Chang Fa's hair whimpered again when she saw their bandit-like behavior, and Chang Fa tightened the hair that was tied around her as a warning.
The demon girl now knew that the old demon Zhang Yang had been killed by these Taoist nuns, and she couldn't help but feel sad.
The reason why she devoted herself to the old demon Zhang Yang was naturally because the old demon Zhang Yang was not only powerful but also very rich. Now the old demon is dead and his nest has been raided, and she got nothing. How could she not be sad
After collecting the things, Gu Jiu took the Taoist nuns out.
Breathing the fresh and natural air outside, the Taoist nuns felt that they were finally alive again, and Gu Jiu and Qin Huang also took off the masks on their faces.
After raiding the lair of the old demon Zhang Yang, the purpose of this trip was achieved and Gu Jiu prepared to leave.
"Girl, wait for me, I am willing to..."
"You don't want to!" Qin Huang glared at him murderously, "The eldest lady already has me, there's no need for a clinging demon!"
The Taoist nuns blinked and looked at Qin Huang, doubting his relationship with Gu Jiu.
Chang Fa knew that he could not beat Qin Huang, so he looked at Gu Jiu with anticipation on his face.
Gu Jiu was surrounded by Taoist nuns. They looked at him for a moment and asked, "Do you want to make a contract with me?"
Chang Fa's face lit up with joy and he nodded quickly.
Since ancient times, humans and demons have been in opposition, but there are also some powerful and capable people who sign contracts with kind-hearted demons to serve them. Gu Jiu is undoubtedly a strong person, so it is normal for her to want to recruit a few kind demons to serve her.
Chang Fa believes that he has never killed a human being and is a kind demon who has never been stained with blood. He wants to find a powerful human to make a contract.
The old demon Zhang Yang is dead, and he has no one to rely on, so he has to plan for his future.
Gu Jiu said: "It will be very dangerous to follow me."
Chang Fa said firmly: "Since I have chosen this path, I will not blame anyone for the danger. As long as the girl can protect my life at the critical moment, that's enough."
"The key is to protect your life?" Qin Huang sneered again, "Maybe I will use you to pay for my life then."
The player's task is to destroy the Demon Chief. Just by hearing the title, you can tell how powerful the Demon Chief is. It can be seen how dangerous this journey is. The monsters traveling with the player will not have a good ending.
Chang Fa hesitated for a moment, but finally made his decision.
In the end, Gu Jiu still accepted Chang Fa. After signing a contract with him, Chang Fa turned into an exquisite enamel comb and fell into her palm.
Qin Huang was very unhappy when he saw the comb, but he didn't say anything else.
Since the young lady decided to accept the comb spirit, she must have her own plans. He just didn't like that there were still demons who were shameless enough to learn from him and hug the young lady's thighs, but since they hugged her, he could only accept it.
A group of people left Zhangzhe Mountain and went to a nearby town to rest.
They have been traveling these two days. Gu Jiu and Qin Huang are both A-level players and can withstand the travel, but the Taoist nuns can't stand it. Seeing how tired they look, Gu Jiu plans to rest for a night and return to Qingyun Mountain tomorrow.
The town closest to Zhangzhe Mountain is Zhangzhe Town, which is named after its location at the foot of Zhangzhe Mountain.
As soon as I entered the town, I felt a strange atmosphere. Although the streets were bustling with people and looked lively, there was an uncomfortable feeling.
People who practice cultivation are quite sensitive. The Taoist nuns' faces changed slightly. They looked at the people around them vigilantly and followed Gu Jiu closely.
Zhangzhe Town is very lively, with many shops on both sides of the street selling food and daily necessities, as well as blacksmith shops and weapons shops, creating a busy and lively atmosphere.
Although Zhangzhe Town is located near Zhangzhe Mountain and is the territory of the old demon Zhang Yang, many monsters have the habit of storing food and will not eat grass near their nests unless absolutely necessary. Zhangzhe Town has been able to prosper and develop under the protection of the old demon Zhang Yang.
But such towns are often very unfriendly to ordinary people.
Gu Jiu walked through the crowd calmly.
The nuns looked at the people in the town and always felt something was wrong, so they became more cautious.
Mu Ying leaned close to Gu Jiu and whispered, "Miss Gu, how about we leave?"
"It's getting dark, it's not good to travel outside." Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Let's find a guest house to rest and eat mutton hotpot. I haven't eaten the mutton hotpot I promised to treat you yet."
Taoist nuns: “…” Is it time to eat mutton hotpot now
Only Junior Sister Mu Xin was open-minded and asked sweetly, "Sister Gu, do you have mutton hotpot for sale here?"
"Why not? Isn't it over there?"
Looking in the direction she pointed, the nuns saw a shop on the side of the road with a sheep's head banner hanging on it. Outside the shop was a freshly slaughtered sheep, its head and body separated, with processed internal organs placed next to it, looking bloody.
Qin Huang was hungry, so he urged, "Come on, let's go eat the mutton hotpot."
A group of people came to the store.
There were not many customers in the store, and they were all eating mutton hotpot. The aroma of mutton soup floating in the air easily stimulated people's appetite.
The shop owner was a fat middle-aged man with a big smile on his face. He came over with a cloth in his hand and said, "What would you like to eat? We have mutton hotpot, mutton offal, mutton soup, mutton spine..."
Gu Jiuhao said angrily: "Bring up all the signature dishes in your restaurant."
"Okay!"
The shop owner responded with a smile and went to tell people to get busy while looking at the group of people inconspicuously: six Taoist nuns and two men and women dressed in ordinary clothes, all of whom looked very outstanding.
Not only the owner, but also the diners in the store and the passers-by outside the store all looked over here vaguely.
The Taoist nuns had gloomy faces and were so nervous that their hands holding the swords turned pale.
Only Gu Jiu and Qin Huang didn't care. Qin Huang diligently wiped the table and chairs with tissues before asking the young lady to sit down.
Gu Jiu sat down leisurely and stretched out his hand to tap on the table. Two little paper figures appeared. They twisted their bodies, bowed to Gu Jiu and the nuns, then jumped off the table and followed the owner into the kitchen.
The nuns had never seen such a small thing before, and asked in surprise: "Miss Gu, what is this?"
"This is a psychic paper figurine." Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Don't look at them like this, they are very powerful. Whoever wants to do something bad can't hide it from their eyes."
The owner and diners also saw the two little paper figures, their faces changed slightly, and the malice that permeated them subsided.
There were little paper men watching in the kitchen, so the chefs didn't dare to do anything and just served the mutton pot and other dishes they ordered.
The mutton hotpot was very delicious. It was the first time for the Taoist nuns to eat mutton hotpot and they thought it was the most delicious food they had ever eaten in their lives.
It turns out that mutton is so delicious. Thinking back to the old demon Zhang Yang who was buried in the back mountain by them, she felt a little heartbroken.
How much meat is this!
The eight people finished a table of mutton offal feast and were very satisfied.
After eating and drinking, they went to the inn in the town and asked for five rooms. Gu Jiu and Qin Huang each had a room, and the six Taoist nuns each had two rooms.
The waiter who led the way asked attentively: "Masters, do you have any other instructions?"
"Prepare some hot water, we want to take a bath." Gu Jiu ordered and threw a piece of silver to the waiter.
The waiter responded with a smile, hurried to give the order, and turned to find the innkeeper.
"Boss, the ones coming this time are all fat sheep. Not only did they eat a sheep from Ah Xiong's place, they also gave me a piece of silver just now. It can be seen that they are quite wealthy. Should we..." The waiter made a gesture of wiping his neck.
The shopkeeper snorted and laughed, "According to the plan."
The waiter rubbed his hands, "Yes, I will prepare it immediately and we can act after dark."
