Chapter 303 Folk Sacrifice for Rat Immortals
Li Shantao, the most prestigious commander of the Monster Control Division, before Zhou Dao came to Pingjiang City, he even had the reputation of "Purifying Demon Shovel".
Although, in recent days, Li Shantao has had a lot of troubles, and he was often seriously injured during missions and was cut open.
However, this did not affect his prestige in the hearts of many demon slayer guards.
Li Shantao's firm belief in defeating demons has infected many newcomers who have just joined the Demon Yusi.
"How could it be?" Zhou Dao was stunned.
He clearly remembered that during the Dragon King Sacrifice, Li Shantao was seriously injured, and he is still in cultivation, how could he die suddenly?
"Commander Li is just so dedicated. He devoted his whole life to Yuyaosi. He returned to work even though his injury was not healed." A demon-killing guard clasped his hands tightly, holding back tears and said .
At this moment, in the lobby, there was a gloomy cloud, and everyone's faces were filled with grief and indignation.
Li Shantao is notoriously strict among many commanders, but he has won the respect of most people.
This veteran demon slayer guard really loves this job, and has dedicated most of his life to the demon slayer guard.
"Boss Li said that after finishing his work, he would take his wife and children for a stroll around Lin'an Mansion and spend time with them... until now, now..."
Among the crowd, Kang Daoan cried the most sadly.
He is Li Shantao's deputy, and the two have worked together for more than ten years and have a close friendship.
"What's going on?" Zhou Dao pulled Wu Feng who was beside him, and asked in a low voice.
"Don't mention it, something happened to [Tuk Tuk] last night. They were so bold that they colluded with monsters, secretly worshiped them, sold passengers' information to monsters, picked targets for them, and slaughtered them wantonly." Wu Feng lowered his voice and said.
[Tuk Tuk Shop] is the largest donkey cart shop in Pingjiang City, almost more than 90% of the donkey carts are driven by it.
Who would have thought that they would secretly enshrine monsters and be discovered by others.
Li Shantao personally led a team to seize the [Tuk Tuk Shop], unexpectedly, the monster was too powerful, and finally encountered an accident.
In the end, the three commanders took action at the same time.
Only then did he barely subdue the monster.
"Why are you crying?"
At this moment, there was a burst of loud drinking, and the lobby immediately fell silent.
Duan Shan's shoulders were bandaged, and he walked out from behind. His eyes were sharp and swept across everyone's faces.
"Why are you crying? Li Shantao is not dead..." Duan Shan shouted violently.
Everyone was startled, and then, their eyes lit up with hope.
What a surprise.
"He will always live in our hearts."
Duan Shan's words were like a basin of cold water poured on their heads, quickly extinguishing the hope that had just risen in everyone's hearts.
Li Shantao died, and the great commander was the saddest.
In the beginning, Li Shantao was under his command when he first joined the Monster Control Division.
Therefore, in the entire Yuyaosi, the two of them have the most similar style, the same ruthless, domineering and fierce.
Duan Shan has always regarded Li Shantao as the best subordinate and has high hopes for him.
But now that Li Shantao is dead, the duties of the Demon Slayer Guards still have to be performed.
As long as they are here, they have no time to grieve.
Separation between life and death, this is the reality that every mature demon slayer guard cannot escape.
What they can do is to carry the hope of the dead, live with compassion, step on the corpses of demons, and continue to live.
"Go and do your work." Duan Shan waved his hand, his tone firm, but his movements seemed weak.
He turned around and walked towards the depths of Yuyaosi, his back looked extremely lonely.
"Hey, Commander Duan Shan is probably the saddest one."
"I heard that back then..."
"Forget it, the deceased is gone, don't talk about it anymore."
Everyone sighed and left one after another, but they were still immersed in grief.
"Pity."
Zhou Dao shook his head and sighed softly. Although he didn't have a deep friendship with Li Shantao, he still didn't see him when he looked up.
For this 【Pingjiang laparotomy spatula】, he still has some good feelings, even sympathy.
"Sili is not normal recently."
At this moment, Wang Xiaoyi appeared from beside him.
"What's abnormal?" Zhou Dao asked.
"I heard that last night, Commander Li was seriously injured and dying. He could only breathe a sigh of relief. It stands to reason that he should be dragged back to see his family for the last time, but Si Li actually sent him to the Dragon Gate."
"What?" Zhou Dao revealed a strange look upon hearing this.
This is indeed somewhat abnormal.
"Not only that, I also heard that recently, all rat monsters captured by the Demon Slayer Guards, regardless of life or death, were all sent to Longmen."
Wang Xiaoyi's intelligence ability is indeed strong, but he knows all the women in Fansi, no matter which department they are in.
"Rat demon!?"
Zhou Dao frowned slightly, no wonder he found that the number of rat monsters sent recently has become less and less.
"Last night [Tuk Tuk] caught the rat demon, and it is said that it is about to step into the evil level." Wang Xiaoyi lowered his voice: "The superiors did not kill him, and now they are sealed in your demon mortuary room. I heard that they will also be sent to Longmen."
"What? There is such a thing?" Zhou Dao was stunned.
The death of a commander is a major event, such a crime, ordinary monsters would have been exterminated long ago.
Now, instead of killing him, Yu Yaosi sealed him up in the department, and sent him to Longmen?
"when?"
"How do I know this? Wait for the notification from Longmen." Wang Xiaoyi said uncertainly.
His sources of information are too many and too complicated, and many of them are speculated by him.
"understood."
Zhou Dao turned around and walked straight to [Tianhuo Squad], a little curious.
The Rat Demon is an extremely common monster.
It is recorded in the "Working Manual of the Demon Master" that rats hide in the house, tainted with popularity, eat and live together, and those who have lived together for more than ten years will turn into demons when their eyebrows grow silver hairs.
It is said that because rats hide in the house for a long time, they are contaminated with human breath and absorbed energy, and if they live for more than ten years, they will turn into monsters.
At this time, silver hair grows between its brows, which is its characteristic of turning into a demon.
In some places, rat demons are regarded as immortals who protect their homes, and they are called "rat fairies".
Some witches in the folk even enshrine the [rat demon] at home. As a medium, although they have different cultivation methods, they can also obtain the blessing of the [rat demon] to help people avoid evil and avoid evil.
After a long time, this [rat demon] has gained the belief of human beings, and its supernatural powers will become stronger and stronger.
Therefore, the Rat Demon is a very different kind of existence.
It is said in the "Working Manual of Yuyaosi" that if a "rat demon" is kept in captivity at home, it can absorb all the good luck and wealth of neighbors and relatives, which is called "stealing luck".
However, once the [rat demon] raised in captivity leaves the family, the family will quickly decline, and eventually the family's wealth will be wiped out, and the house will be destroyed.
"No wonder the tuk-tuk business has risen so fast, it turns out that they are colluding with monsters." Zhou Dao sneered in his heart.
When he came to [Tianhuo Class], he saw a huge red gold iron cage, which was sealed by many talismans, and a dark figure was swimming inside.
At this moment, a kind of demon master is far away from the iron cage and dare not approach it.
"Hey, stupid humans, I killed so many of you, what can you do? At most, you can only lock me here."
Ferocious laughter came from the red gold iron cage.
"Tsk tsk, you guys can't kill me, only Nine-Transformation masters can... I haven't done it for so long, let me guess, there is no Nine-Transformation master in Yuyaosi now, or you have something to ask for me? Hahaha... ..."
The rat monster laughed wildly. It has to be said that this kind of monster has extremely high intelligence and guessed many joints in an instant.
Because of this, it became more and more unscrupulous, and its ferocious laughter was endless.
"The humans yesterday were really delicious. By the way, how many of you are going to die? Like ants, I can't even remember..."
The demonic aura of this rat demon is really terrifying, even if it is banned by talismans, it is difficult to completely isolate it.
"Brother Dao..." Wu Feng walked over with a miserable expression on his face.
"Don't worry about it, just work with peace of mind." Zhou Dao glanced coldly and said lightly.
When Wu Feng heard this, he could only nod helplessly, and secretly prayed in his heart, hoping that Si Li would transport this monster away as soon as possible.
You know, this rat monster could almost break through to the fierce level.
This kind of existence is comparable to a master of nine transformations. If he is really allowed to break through, it will be troublesome.
Under the ferocity of the [rat demon], everyone spent a difficult day tremblingly.
In the evening, the sky was getting dark, and finally it was time to disperse.
"Brother Dao, let's go first."
Wu Feng and the others greeted each other and didn't want to stay for a moment.
"Well, you guys go first, I'll take care of the rest." Zhou Dao didn't turn his head, and concentrated on the work on the desk.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, and took a last look at the red gold iron cage, as if they were pardoned, they rushed out of the demon house one after another.
It was late at night, and the dim candlelight made a "chi chi" sound.
Zhou Dao was left alone in Nuo Da's demon mortuary.
rumbling...
Suddenly, there was a violent vibration in the red gold iron cage, and the talisman on the surface shone brightly, isolating the escaping evil spirit.
"It's a pity, I'm only a little short of being able to cultivate to the fierce level. If so, how can this little trick trap me?"
Inside the red gold iron cage, the hideous voice sounded again.
At this moment, Zhou Dao finally put down his work, turned around, and looked at the figure in the iron cage.
The rat monster was as big as a Shiba Inu, sitting cross-legged, like an old monk in meditation, his gray hair sometimes stood up and sometimes fell down, and his cunning eyes met Zhou Dao's four eyes.
"Weak human beings dare to look at me like this. Your courage is commendable." The rat demon sneered, with a trace of cruelty and sarcasm in its grinning mouth.
"If it's outside, I can swallow you in one gulp."
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Zhou Dao said indifferently.
"Hahaha...Afraid of death? Who can kill me in Pingjiang City now?" The rat demon laughed wantonly, revealing endless provocations: "There is trouble in Pingjiang City, you need me...it's so sad...the majestic Royal Monster Si actually needs the power of a monster..."
"Sad human beings, you can't kill me now, and you don't dare to kill me..." The rat demon's laughter became more wild and arrogant.
hum...
At this moment, a flash of sword light shot out, like a flash of thunder, cracking stones and piercing gold, directly blasting the red gold iron cage, and piercing through the head of the rat demon.
The voice stopped abruptly, and the mouse demon's eyes widened, looking at Zhou Dao in horror, and at the terrifying sword energy wrapped around his fingertips! ! !
