I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 51

[Chapter 51: Secret Private Meeting]

After arriving at the county office, Kong Ning found that many people were late today.

And everyone was sick and weak.

Even Ma Liu, the most energetic brothel official in the past, looks like he has been drained today.

Looking back now, it seems that every year after the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone will be depressed and tired for several days.

It’s just that although Kong Ning was aware of this in previous years, he subconsciously ignored the abnormality.

This is very wrong.

It seems that the monsters in this city have used some kind of trick to confuse understanding, so that the mortals in the whole city can’t notice the abnormality after the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Kong Ning, who finished clicking Mao, found a place to lean against and continued reading the novel.

Today’s yamen is very quiet.

Even the poker players were all powerless.

Kong Ning sat in the corner and flipped through the novel, but his consciousness sank into his dantian, and he continued to carry and refine the demon power in his body according to the blood-qi transfer method of martial arts.

Every time a monster is beheaded and the magic power refined from the mysterious black pot has a similar relationship with the target being beheaded.

For example, the demon power obtained by Kong Ning when he killed the soul-eating demon carried a little breath of the soul-eating demon.

The demon power obtained by beheading the Nightmare Ghost carries the breath of the Nightmare Ghost.

The few evil ghosts that were killed later, the power that they brought to Kong Ning also had a cold and dead aura.

These special powers need to be transported and refined by Kong Ning over and over again, in order to be used as an arm and a finger.

So after beheading the demon, Kong Ning needed time to settle.

But he also has enough time now.

The Mid-Yuan Festival is over, the gates of ghosts are closed, and there are no evil ghosts beheading them.

If Kong Ning wanted to find the demon in the city, he had to wait for the white mist in the mysterious black tank to fill up.

At least ten days.

So Kongning is very leisurely, not in a hurry at all.

As noon approached, he rode a thin, jujube-yellow horse around the city as usual, maintaining the character that he liked to wander outside.

After returning at noon, I had lunch with my colleagues, and then sat back in the corner of the yamen to read the novel.

It was not until the yamen was released that he rode a jujube yellow horse to his home.

But just as Kong Ning rode a jujube yellow horse out of the yamen, he saw a blue bird slowly disappearing from the Zuixian Building opposite.

That was Wan’er’s signal that she had something to look for.

Seeing this scene, Kong Ning’s face remained calm, but he was quite surprised in his heart.

I just killed the ghost last night and agreed to meet in a few days.

What did Wan’er suddenly ask him for?

Could it be that you want to talk about the ghost of the city god last night?

Kong Ning was curious and rode back home on a jujube yellow horse, and saw a feast prepared by Su Yan.

Six dishes and one soup, all of which are hard vegetables.

Even the chef of Zuixianlou has to prepare for a long time.

And Kong Ning, who has been eating in Zuixianlou all the year round, can be sure that the dishes made by the chef of Zuixianlou are not as delicious as those made by this goblin.

It was obvious that this demon girl had only worked in Zuixianlou before, but just by looking at it, she was able to learn the chef’s craftsmanship, and she was still young.

This demon girl’s learning ability is truly terrifying.

“Husband, go to bed early.”

After dinner, Su Yan cleaned the table and said with a smile, “Go to bed early and rest well. Yan’er will come back before dawn and needs her husband’s love.”

Su Yan’s eyes were charming and pointed.

Kong Ning nodded naturally, and went straight to the backyard to take a bath, ready to fall asleep.

But after the demon girl left the house, it was less than an hour before Kong Ning left Huaishu Lane in the dark.

Go straight to Tian’s abandoned house in the south of the city.

While running wildly under the moon, he glanced at his back restlessly, for fear that someone would follow him.

There is a feeling of going to a private meeting with a lover behind his back.

And under the cold moonlight, on the rockery of Tian’s abandoned house, a girl in white saw Kongning appear,

Showing a smile.

“Ning Zhaotou, good evening.”

Similar to Kong Ning’s conjecture, Wan’er informed Kong Ning to come over, and she really wanted to talk about the ghost of the city god last night.

“The ghost of the city god is holding the scabbard, and the body of the sword is obviously the spirit-suppressing sword in Ning Zhaotou’s hand.”

“If this is the case, then we may be able to use the Zhenling Sword to forcibly open the gate of the Yin Si in Shanlan County and enter the underworld. This sword is the Spirit Sword of Chenghuang Town, and has a certain authority of the Yin Si.”

“Of course, there is no need to do such a dangerous thing now.”

The girl said in a serious tone: “But Ning catches the head, Wan’er thought about it all night last night, and finally decided to break through here in order to reach a higher realm and kill the evil spirits.”

“Since Wan’er has seen the evil spirits in this city, she can’t ignore it.”

“So for the next ten days, Wan’er will have to retreat.”

“During this period of time, Ning Zhaotou must be careful to guard against the monsters at home and not conflict with her. And try not to provoke the monsters in the city, and put his own safety first.”

“Even if there is something wrong, I hope Ning Zhaotou can discuss it after Wan’er comes out of retreat.”

“The world is difficult, and we should protect each other and keep our living strength for the future.”

“In addition, Wan’er also has a jade slip here called “Wuzhen Jing”. It is not a practice method, but it is often read and recited in the heart, but it can calm the mind and help the practice. It is very suitable for Ning Zuotouchu. into the path of meditation.”

“Ning Zhaotou has already cultivated, and Wan’er’s “Tianjian Jue” can’t be passed on to you. At least not at this time.”

“The demons in the city are raging, Ning Caotou needs to be cultivated close to his body and cannot lose his power.”

“So this “Sutra of Enlightenment” is particularly important to Ning Caotou.”

Wan’er explained to Kong Ning carefully, and agreed to notify Kong Ning as soon as she broke through.

But this girl wants to retreat and break through?

Kong Ning felt a little outrageous.

This little girl’s cultivation is equivalent to the 80 years or so of ordinary demons, and it is still far away from breaking through to the next level.

And even if you can really break through to the next level, it won’t take as long as ten days, right?

Could it be that this little girl has something to do with her?

Looking at the girl in front of him with a strange expression, Kong Ning nodded and said, “Understood, clear.”

It seems that the inheritance of Xuantian Sword Sect is definitely more than a secret room and a few ancient books.

But his secret girl didn’t ask, so Kong Ning naturally wouldn’t do abrupt things and get to the bottom of it.

After the two agreed, they would say goodbye to each other.

But at this moment, a powerful demonic energy suddenly burst out in the city.

The surging demonic energy swept across the sky, and most of Shanlan County was affected.

But the mortals in the city just felt that there was a sudden gust of wind, and they couldn’t notice anything else.

However, as practitioners, Kong Ning and Wan’er looked towards the northwest of Shanlan County at the same time with shocked expressions.

In that direction, there was clearly some kind of fierce monster battle.

And Kong Ning and Wan’er clearly noticed that one of them was a monster with extraordinary cultivation that died.

This sudden burst of demonic energy is the last counterattack before the opponent’s death!
