I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 133

[Chapter 132 Night Detective]

The pale lantern hanging on the tree shed a faint white light.

On the stone table under the tree, Kong Ning’s fingers dipped in wine silently wrote a few small words.

【Really a demon?

】

Kong Ning’s inquiry made Zhang Rong hesitate slightly.

If it was someone else, Zhang Rong would definitely not answer.

However, Kong Ning had a very close relationship with him, he hesitated for a moment, and then smiled.

“Speaking of which, there was a massacre in the city ten days ago.”

“A family of seven people lived in the north of the city, and all of them died. When we got the news and rushed over, we saw the family of seven, no matter what. Young and old, their heads were all cut off and hung at the door of the house, like lanterns.”

“It is said that the incense was not offered on time, and the blessing of the Lord of the City God was lost. At night, strong men came to kill him.”

Zhang Rong laughed .

Speaking of this case, his eyes hinted: “Up to now, the yamen has not found the murderer.”

“So our Lord of the City God of Hejian Mansion is still very spiritual. It is a great blessing to have his old man’s blessing. Ah.”

Although he didn’t dare to say it outright, Zhang Rong tried his best to mention Kong Ning and said everything he could.

Kong Ning was grateful, smiled and took the initiative to divert the topic, and also talked about an old incident in Shanlan County.

In this way, the matter is completely exposed.

These words, also Zhang Rong will tell him.

Others are afraid of that demon, and will never dare to speak out.

Chatted with Zhang Rong about interesting things in the city for a while, and discussed what Kong Ning should look for next to make a living.

After the two finished drinking a pot of wine, Zhang Rong got up and left.

The city is dangerous, even a martial arts expert like Zhang Rong is avoiding being alone late at night.

Kong Ning stood at the door, watching Zhang Rong’s back disappear at the end of the alley, and then closed the courtyard door.

And lock the gate.

Inside the room, Xu Caiwei had already fallen asleep.

Kong Ning only taught her to memorize the “Sutra of Enlightenment”, but did not teach her any cultivation method.

In theory, the little girl has

not yet officially set foot on the path of cultivation, and is no different from ordinary people.

But just by reciting the Heart Sutra, which has no effect on practice, the little girl can absorb a little fairy spirit from the heavens and the earth into her body, her talent is simply terrifying.

If the method of her cultivation is taught, I really don’t know what a terrible situation it will be.

Kong Ning and Wan’er have a clear opinion on when to teach Caiwei the cultivation method.

This little girl must be taught the separation of love and hatred, the worldly feelings, and make her understand the truth before she can begin to teach her practice.

The congenital demons are the supreme beings among demons. Although the demonic energy has been deprived, they still prefer the way of demons.

If you don’t teach her to be sensible, this ignorant little girl is fast in cultivation, and her foundation is unstable.

Kong Ning and Wan’er didn’t want such a good seedling to fall into the devil’s way and be destroyed in the end.

With Caiwei’s talent, if she is properly educated, she will be able to overwhelm a demon in the future.

If you have enough qi, you may even break through the Purple Palace and become a true immortal outside the world.

Really reached that realm, not to mention rewriting the order of heaven and earth, expelling the four demons.

At the very least, it can protect a country and a continent, and save hundreds of millions of creatures from being enslaved and kept in captivity by demons.

It is no exaggeration to say that what Kong Ning is taking with him at the moment is the future of this Eastern Divine Continent.

Therefore, he has to be more careful in his management.

Helping the sleeping little girl gently cover the quilt, Kong Ning walked out of the house and came to the small courtyard.

The yard he bought took up a lot of land, bigger than the house in Huaishu Lane.

In the southeast corner of the yard, there is a peach tree.

Now a pale ghost lamp hangs above the peach tree, reflecting a faint white light under the tree.

Kong Ning was sitting under the tree, silently running the Spirit Devouring Magic Art, constantly refining the mixed demon power in his body.

In his mind, he was thinking about adding incense to the city god.

From Zhang Rong’s words, we learned that the demons in the Temple of the City God have some means of detecting which one is not offering incense on time.

If the incense is not served on time, the demon will kill the door to destroy the whole door.

In this brutal way, the whole city was forced to offer incense to them.

With such a method, it is no wonder that every family in the city is afraid of ghosts, and the incense in the Temple of the City God is flourishing every day.

And Kong Ning wanted to live in Hejian Mansion for a long time, and the incense offered to the City God every day was a hurdle that could not be avoided.

If there is no incense, the demons of the Temple of the City God will come to kill them, but it will be difficult to get rid of them.

Now Kong Ning, for the time being, doesn’t want to deal with those monsters.

But if incense is given to the city god on time every day, it is not necessarily safe.

Because the spirit-devouring magic jar added the incense and wishing power, it is definitely not a good thing.

This Hejian Mansion City God looks like the one with a violent temperament.

If Kong Ning’s three-pillar incense is received every morning and evening… Kong Ning is worried that the other party will not be tortured and will go crazy and kill in the city.

Tonight, in a fit of rage, it rushed out of the city to fight.

Tomorrow night, it can also order the demon soldiers and set off a bloody storm in the city, just to find the Kong Ning who “harmed it” in the dark.

Under the peach tree, Kong Ning frowned and thought hard, but couldn’t think of a result.

Mainly because he didn’t know how the incense sacrifice was judged.

If Kong Ning called someone else to offer incense to the city god, I don’t know if he would pass the test.

If so, it would be much simpler.

Just throw it to the neighbor for illusion, and let him burn three more sticks of incense when he offers incense every day.

Thinking of this, Kong Ning exhaled a long breath and stood up.

The three sticks of incense from the City God were a hurdle that he could not get around at this time.

At this time, the City God brought the demon soldiers and demon generals out of the city, and the inside of the Temple of the City God was empty.

It’s a good opportunity to explore the truth.

He must also explore this reality.

Leaving two ghost lamps in the courtyard to protect Caiwei, Kong Ning disappeared directly from the courtyard and went to the Chenghuang Temple not far away.

Tongming Lane is not far from the Chenghuang Temple. Crossing a river and two streets, you can see the brightly lit Chenghuang Temple under the night.

Although there is no curfew in Hejianfu, there are not many people in the streets at night.

The Chenghuang Temple, which was lit with candles from the inside out, was even more eerily empty.

Kong Ning, who was standing outside the City God Temple, did not rashly approach this empty City God Temple.

Although there should not be any demon soldiers left in the Temple of the City God at this time, it is still advisable to act prudently.

He stood in the shadow and waited for about a quarter of an hour before he saw a figure walking around in the Temple of the City God.

The man was wearing a robe, black, strong and fat. He looked like the man in charge of incense in the temple, and was sweeping the floor.

But when Kong Ningfa opened his eyes, he saw that this was a little demon who had just turned into a humanoid.

As soon as his mind moved, the Nightmare Tapir’s innate magical powers and Jinghuashuiyue’s illusions were directly displayed.

Under the moonlight, the little demon carrying the broom was slightly startled, and then walked towards Kong Ning with a calm expression.

Finally, the two stood under the shade of the tree by the river, and Kong Ning heard the little demon respectfully tell him about the sacrifice of the city god.
