After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he looked at the huge wolf corpse on the ground. If it stayed here, it might spread evil spirits. After a period of time, it would easily breed evil spirits or produce poisonous miasma. Moreover, if passers-by saw it, they might be scared to death.
"We can't keep this corpse. By the way, do you want to eat it?"
Ji Yuan asked Lao Niu naturally. He knew that some monsters would choose to devour their opponents after killing them. This question stunned Niu Batian again. He lowered his head to look at the wolf monster's corpse which had died tragically.
"Mr. Ji just asked me if I wanted to eat this?"
"Uh, Mr. Ji, I don't have this habit. Besides, this thing has mixed demonic energy and no treasures inside. It looks disgusting. Why should I eat it?"
Ji Yuan nodded in understanding.
"I just remembered that an old friend of mine always liked to swallow the demons when he killed them, so I thought you would like it too."
"Who is it? Is he also a demon?"
Niu Batian asked curiously, and Ji Yuan did not hide it.
"I guess so. He is the old dragon in Tongtian River in Dazhen Territory, the Dragon King mentioned by Gao Tianming."
Old Niu's body shuddered subconsciously, and the few words he wanted to say were stopped in his throat. The existence of a true dragon of this level was too mysterious and even evil. Mr. Ji dared to talk nonsense like this, but he didn't dare to criticize him.
"Since you don't want to eat it, I will destroy this demon corpse."
With the Samadhi True Fire, it is most convenient to do this kind of thing.
As soon as Ji Yuan said this, Lao Niu thought of the scene outside Nandao County, when Mr. Ji burned the corpse in a rage.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute, sir!"
The old cow hurriedly called out, and under Ji Yuan's slightly puzzled gaze, he hurriedly ran to the area around the wolf demon's corpse to search.
He picked up a piece of cloth here and a rope there, and after searching for a long time, he finally found a few pieces of jade pendant fragments and a purse embroidered with a wolf picture, laughing "Hehehe".
Lao Niu weighed the purse, and when he heard the noise he opened it and looked inside, seeing that it was full of white and gold.
"Hehehe, that's enough, that's enough, sir, please go ahead!"
Ji Yuan didn't say anything about Lao Niu's action. Instead, it reminded him of something. He approached the wolf demon's corpse and flicked his sleeves. The wolf corpse flipped at an angle, revealing its neck and abdomen.
He ignored the blood on the ground, walked a few steps closer, reached under the neck of the wolf demon's corpse, and picked up a handful of wolf hair.
These wolf hair brushes are light grayish white, about one finger long, hard yet extremely flexible, and have a faint fluorescent glow.
Niu Batian looked at the wolf-hair brush and smiled.
"It seems that I was wrong, Old Cow. This little wild dog did give birth to some good things. If it weren't for Mr. Ji's keen eye, we would have missed it..."
While speaking, although Niu Batian was looking at Ji Yuan and the wolf hair brush in his hand, his eyes were watching at Ji Yuan's feet. He was clearly stepping on the filthy blood of the wolf demon, but the blood automatically slid away from Mr. Ji's feet, and even the filth in the blood did not touch Mr. Ji at all.
As for whether Ji Yuan used any magical powers, Lao Niu admitted that the gap in their levels was too big and he might not be able to tell the difference, but he instinctively felt that Mr. Ji did not use any magical powers.
Lao Niu was still thinking about it, when the next moment he saw Ji Yuan open his mouth and exhale a breath. A red-gray air swept across the entire wolf corpse. There was no flame rising into the sky, but the whole body was lit up like burnt red charcoal.
Once the monster died, the remaining old energy and spiritual energy on its body became rootless duckweed, unable to resist the true fire energy. Instead, it became the best material for combustion. In just a moment, the entire corpse of the monster wolf had been completely reduced to ashes. Except for the damage on the ground caused by the previous battle, nothing else could be seen.
"Let's go."
After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he took the lead and flew off the ground towards Luping City. Niu Batian stretched his arms, took one last look at the black ash on the ground, and followed closely behind.
"Mr. Ji, what about Langfu?"
In the sky, when approaching Luping City, Niu Batian asked a question.
Ji Yuan shook his head.
"The rest are ordinary people. Once the wolf demon dies, they may still search for it at first. After a while, other people with vested interests will come to take advantage of the situation and fight for power. It will be a mess for a while. I will leave a letter and you don't have to worry about it anymore."
From the market to the upper classes, the world of the living has never been simple. Without Mr. Lang Liu and monsters eating people in this way, there will be many powerful contenders coming in to "eat people."
In the Lang Mansion, a group of servants heard a loud noise coming from the master's room in the backyard, and they all ran over to check in fright.
The servants in the house all knew that the master of the Lang Mansion had a habit that servants were not allowed to enter the backyard when he was resting. However, something obviously happened tonight, and the servants didn't care about the rules and ran to the backyard.
When I came over to take a look, I saw that the door wall in front of the master bedroom was completely shattered, and almost all the fragments were inside the house, as if some huge object had suddenly crashed into the house.
The house was in a mess, with furniture overturned and beds broken into pieces. The floor was covered in cracks, and there was a big hole in the roof.
"This... where is the master?"
"I don't know. Is there someone from Jianghu coming?"
"I seemed to hear a cow mooing just now..." "Hey, I heard it too."
"Shall we report it to the police?"
"But didn't the master say that no matter what happens in our house, we must not alert the government?"
"What if the master is missing?"
The servants were a little bit at a loss, but the manager came hurriedly and after taking a look, he decided to notify several other gambling owners who had a close relationship with their master, to find out if there were any enemies coming.
In one of the courtyards, there was a room filled with crying sounds. It was locked from the outside and there were guards, but the two guards had already fallen to the ground and fainted.
A tiny paper crane was perched on the door lock, pecking at it with its paper beak.
“Ding ding ding… snap…”
The door lock broke open and slid down along with an iron chain, hitting the ground with a "ding-ling" sound.
"Squeak~"
The door opened by itself, and the crying women and children in the house all stopped crying and looked outside the door nervously, but they didn't see anyone coming in.
One of the women pretended to be brave and walked to the door to look around. She found that the door lock had fallen to the ground and the guard outside the house was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. She looked at the courtyard in the distance and saw a servant lying on the ground.
A paper crane was on a tree in the yard at this time, watching the group of people in the house very seriously. It saw them all tremblingly approaching the door, and also saw the servant who was pecked unconscious, but strangely, no one dared to step out of the unguarded door.
The paper crane didn't know why this happened and could only stare at it.
After a while, the woman and the child at the door heard a moderate and gentle voice.
"Master Lang Liu has committed many evil deeds and is cruel and bloodthirsty. We, the heroes of Jianghu, have killed him. You should take this opportunity to run away. The people of the Lang Mansion will soon not be able to take care of you."
As the voice sounded, the paper crane raised its head and looked towards the sky. It knew that its owner was above it, but it did not fly up. Instead, it continued to look at the people in the house, watching them tentatively go out and then run away cautiously.
A piece of white paper flew out from Ji Yuan's sleeve above the gate of Lang Mansion, along with a pen, which was still stained with ink that had not yet dried up.
Ji Yuan stretched out his hand and tapped the paper, and the paper unfolded and fixed in the air. Then he took a pen and wrote on the paper.
Niu Batian watched carefully from the side and muttered to himself.
"Lu Pingcheng Lang Liu, who bullies men and women and commits many evil deeds, likes to kill people in the wilderness for fun, and often uses gambling tricks to harm people. When a certain family saw him, they thought he was a scourge in the world. Since they felt it was unfair, they took action to eliminate him... Grind his bones and scatter his ashes!"
Ji Yuan's handwriting this time was not his usual style. Instead, it was somewhat like the printed regular script from his previous life. It was neat and tidy, and each one looked like a square. After writing on a piece of paper, most of the content was listing Lang Liu's crimes and naming the knights to kill him.
After the last stroke was made, Ji Yuan picked up the paper in his hand, then blew gently, and the paper fell from the sky and floated towards the door of Lang Mansion. Then Ji Yuan waved his hand and picked up a dead branch from the ground and threw it away.
"Whoosh... snap..."
The dead branch pierced through the paper and nailed it to the plaque of Lang Mansion, causing cracks on the plaque from top to bottom.
"Let's go back and rest."
Lao Niu looked at the situation outside Lang's mansion, then looked at the women and children who had been captured before who opened the door and carefully slipped out. Without asking anything, he landed with Ji Yuan and walked towards the inn.
About a dozen breaths later, a paper crane flapped its wings and flew over from behind. It first landed on Ji Yuan's shoulder, pecked him twice, and then flew into Ji Yuan's arms. However, it did not completely return to the brocade bag, and it still showed its bird head and stared at Niu Batian.
"Uh, Mr. Ji, is this paper bird some kind of magical power? Can it observe me?"
The old cow found it very interesting to be stared at by the paper bird.
"It's not really a strange technique. I was just thinking about it as a small technique for sending messages. I didn't think it was very practical, but now it has some convenient uses. Well, it's pretty clever."
Ji Yuan smiled knowingly when he said this, feeling as if he had raised a pet in his previous life. Of course, he had only raised a pet as a child in his previous life, and maybe because he was young, he didn't know how to take care of it, and the results were not very good.
The two of them talked as they walked, gradually moving away from the Lang Mansion in the north of the city. In Ji Yuan's ears, the panicked sounds coming from the Lang Mansion became louder and louder. Apparently, someone had discovered the letter left outside the mansion, as well as the many unconscious servants in the mansion.
In Tianlang Inn, Yan Fei actually couldn't fall asleep. The events of the past few days kept turning over in his mind, outside Nandao County, in Wuya Ghost Town, and the ridiculous fight with Niu Batian this evening.
"I have treasured this dress for a long time. If you tear it, I won't be able to get a second one!"
Lao Niu's voice echoed in Yan Fei's mind, making him subconsciously grab the quilt tightly. After tossing and turning for a long time, Yan Fei sat up from the bed.
He looked at the sword lying across the bed, took it out of the sheath and drew it ten inches away. Even in the night, it still shone with a cold light.
"Are mortals really so powerless? Is martial arts really so powerless?"
