I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 77

[Chapter 77 The first seven nights]

Kong Ning, who was sitting under the eaves, continued his wait.

Now that he has been practicing demons and demons for two hundred years, although he has not yet really fasted, he has been able to stop eating and drinking for a long time.

His cooking skills are average, and he can cook the vegetables to the right degree of sweetness and saltiness.

Getting used to the delicious food that Su Yan served, now alone, I really can’t be bothered to start a fire.

There is no gas stove in this world, just one point.

If you want to start cooking rice, you have to set the fire to burn wood, which is very troublesome.

He sat under the eaves with a calm expression, watching the sunset and the sky gradually turning dark.

In the end, the entire Shanlan County was engulfed by the dark night.

The county town gradually quieted down.

After a busy day, people all returned to their homes to rest.

In the era of no street lights and no electricity, soon after dark, everyone fell asleep and woke up at dawn.

It can be said that it is a very healthy work and rest habit, go to bed early and get up early.

Kong Ning, on the other hand, sat silently under the eaves, hiding in the darkness, quietly watching the stars all over the sky gradually shining.

On the seventh day of the eighth lunar month, it is still the first quarter moon.

The cold moonlight falls on the streets and alleys of Shanlan County.

In the small county town under the night, there was no fighting, no fighting, everything was quiet as usual.

Quiet to the point where Kong Ning even began to feel a little uneasy.

Shanlan County, where demons are entrenched, has not had such peace for a long time.

Ever since the demon entered Kong Ning’s life and made a mess of his world, it seems that every night, disasters happen in Shanlan County.

First the evil spirits ravaged, and then the demons ran rampant.

Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, the monsters seem to be brewing some evil plan.

It stands to reason that in the current city, there should be more evil spirits and crisis surging.

But Kong Ning was sitting in the darkness, but he couldn’t notice anything, and even the demonic energy in the city seemed to have faded a lot.

When the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, the city was still getting more and more yin qi.

But now the county town, with the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, seems more and more peaceful.

– This is very wrong.

And the monster at home has not returned.

It’s even weirder.

Kong Ning sat under the eaves and continued to wait.

Time, minute by minute.

The watchmen came and went, walked and came, and their hoarse voices kept ringing in the dark night.

A cold and dead night passed silently.

Its daybreak.

Su Yan still did not come back.

This vicious and cruel scorpion essence seems to have really evaporated from the world.

But Kong Ning still didn’t dare to act rashly.

What if the scorpion essence didn’t leave, but had been hiding nearby to observe Kong Ning’s reaction secretly?

If at such a time, he shows an abnormality, and Su Yan sees it, Kong Ning’s end would be terrible.

He could only continue to disguise himself as an ordinary person with no cultivation base and live the life of his own yamen headhunter.

Leading the thin jujube yellow horse, Kong Ning stepped out of the Huaishu Lane and walked towards the yamen in the early morning light.

On the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, the third day after Su Yan disappeared.

Kong Ning continued to play the role of the head catcher and went to the Yamen Dianmao.

Because of Su Yan’s strange disappearance, he was not sure if the demon girl was watching, so Kong Ning didn’t even dare to go to the south of the city to contact Wan’er, for fear of being caught.

Otherwise, this evening is Miss Xu San’s first seven, and Kong Ning also plans to go to the Xu residence with Wan’er at night.

Although they are not ghosts from the underworld, they can’t help Miss Xu San to condense the ghost, and they can’t let Miss Xu San’s wandering soul have wisdom.

But Kong Ning noticed Miss Xu San appearing by his side twice before, which made him have some doubts.

Kong Ning even suspected that something happened after Miss Xu San died.

It turned into something resembling a Specter and lingered.

Going to the Xu Mansion to investigate tonight is a great opportunity to verify whether Miss Xu San has turned into a ghost.

But now Kong Ning couldn’t contact Wan’er, so naturally he didn’t dare to go to Xu residence easily.

Otherwise, he sneaked into the Xu mansion alone at night, and suddenly Su Yan jumped out from behind and asked, “Husband, why are you here in the Xu mansion”…

Kong Ning felt that it was better for him to be more stable.

He has only one life and no chance to come back.

Once a mistake is made, it will be irreversible.

The demon girl at home has always been weird and weird. Who knows what trick she was playing when she suddenly disappeared this time.

Kong Ning continued his life in the county government office as usual, reading a book, riding a horse around the city, having lunch with his colleagues, and then returning to the county government office to continue reading.

Anyone who saw Kong Ning’s routine of work and rest would never have guessed that there were two hundred years of demons in his body.

In order not to reveal his tracks, Kong Ning didn’t even sense the mysterious black pot in his dantian, nor did he recite the “Sutra of Enlightenment” silently in his mind. He really just sat under the eaves and read the novel.

Just like that, the day passed quickly.

After leaving the office at dusk, Kong Ning once again declined the invitation from Ma Liu and the others, and rode back to Huaishu Lane by himself.

Without chatting with the parents outside the door, after Kong Ning came to Huaishu Lane, he pushed open the courtyard gate and walked in.

In the empty and deserted yard, Su Yan could not be seen.

In the kitchen, it was still cold and dead, and no one was cooking.

In the front yard and the back yard, there is no fragrance wafting from the woman’s body, only a ferocious cat demon head hangs under the eaves of the back yard, staring at Kong Ning with wide eyes.

The empty yard is inexplicably infiltrated.

Kong Ning changed out of his catching clothes and sat under the eaves in his normal clothes, frowning tightly.

Disappeared for three days in a row… Did something really happen to Su Yan?

If something really happened to her, could she directly train the demon eggs in her stomach?

This demon egg, which will burst out of its stomach when it matures and devour Kong Ning’s flesh and blood, is a thorn in Kong Ning’s heart, but because of Su Yan’s existence, he dare not refine it easily.

Once Su Yan dies, Kong Ning can directly refine the monster egg without worrying about the monster crawling out of her stomach.

But if something happens to Su Yan, does it mean that some top-notch demon has come from Shanlan County?

The monsters in the sky refining realm like Su Yan were easily eliminated.

The self and Wan’er in the gate that day, weren’t they…

Kong Ning’s heart began to feel uneasy.

The situation was not clear, and Su Yan’s strange disappearance made the chaotic situation in Shanlan County even more dangerous and inexplicable.

But at this time Kong Ning, other than sitting at home and waiting, there is no other way to deal with it.

The mysterious black tank in the dantian of Qi Hai, you don’t need to check it to know that the fog is not full, and you can’t use the search technique.

With his and Wan’er’s current cultivation base, it’s okay to hide in the dark and use the power of the mysterious black tank to find a single monster to kill.

If the whereabouts are revealed in the county town where the demons are entrenched, I am afraid that they will be killed by the demons on the spot.

Under the eaves, Kong Ning sat alone, looking indifferently as the night darkened.

In my mind, I thought about what to do next.

And tonight, it is Miss Xu San’s first seven.
