Exorcism

In the small cave, a small pile of flames gradually extinguished, wisps of green smoke emerged, and the dim yellow light flickered. There was no more firewood in the cave. None of the three demon clansmen sitting in a circle wanted to come out of the cave, and they were all stunned. He sat there, motionless and silent, as if he could make the flame burn again with his gaze.

The fire was getting smaller and smaller. The stocky two-horned beast demon turned its back to the entrance of the cave. At this time, he took off his fur coat and threw it into the fire without a word. The flames ignited again, happily devouring the dry fur. It exuded the burnt smell of barbecue, and the rough skin of the beast monster looked like leather armor.

The thin half-demon with three eyes next to him hesitated for a moment, then took off his coat and threw it into the fire, his skinny body visibly trembling.

The little demon facing the entrance of the cave looks like a child of seven or eight years old, with red lips and white teeth, and skin so delicate that it seems to be dripping with water. If it weren't for a pair of translucent cicada-like wings folded on his back, no one would be able to see him. It's a demon. The cicada-winged demon only wore a small piece of animal skin around his waist. Obviously he didn't want to contribute, so he blew a few times on the fire to fan the flames.

The two pieces of clothing couldn't be burned for long. The two-horned beast demon turned its stubby neck and stared at the cicada-winged demon with its slightly protruding goldfish eyes. After a while, the three-eyed demon also turned its gaze away.

The cicada-winged demon was so nervous that its wings trembled slightly, and he opened his two small hands. There were fingertips like bee stings on his chubby fingers, faintly flashing with a layer of green light. He was reminding his two companions that the tips of his fingertips were But it's poisonous.

The three-eyed demon withdrew his gaze, crossed his arms, and shuddered again. However, the two-horned beast demon showed no intention of flinching. He blinked and continued to stare at the cicada-winged demon.

The monster clan does not need many reasons to fight and kill each other, and naturally there is no verbal exchange.

The two-horned beast demon and the cicada-winged demon attacked at the same time, but they both pounced on the three-eyed demon. One held his shoulder, and the other pierced his venomous fingertips into his thin chest.

The three-eyed demon's three eyes widened at the same time, and he made a whooshing sound in his throat. He kicked his feet on the ground a few times and stopped moving. The body was then thrown into the fire.

The flames were suppressed, and the two demons turned the body of the three-eyed demon over, and then put it down after the fire started.

The smell of barbecue became stronger, and the two-horned beast demon licked his lips.

The uninvited guest entered the cave at this time. As soon as he entered, he started talking, adding a bit of vitality to the dead cave.

"Oh my, it's really a heavy snow. It's been snowing for almost three days, right? It's so cold that my butt is about to fall off. I can see a fire here from a distance, and my heart feels a little warmer before I even walk over. Two "Sir, do you mind if I sit down for a while?"

The visitor was not tall and was wrapped in several layers of clothing. Except for his two wet eyes, which were a little weird, he had no demonic features on his body.

The two-horned beast demon did not move, and the cicada-winged demon nodded.

The half-demon Yin Buchen rubbed his hands together, walked around the two-horned beast demon, and sat on the stone where the three-eyed demon once sat. He stretched out his arms and warmed the fire for a while, feeling much better all over his body, "Are you here?" Barbecue? It’s almost burnt. What is this? Is it a three-eyed half-demon? Hehe, you two have really unique tastes. Look at how thin he is, and there’s not much meat left on his body.”

"Your clothes are nice, and you have a little more flesh on your body, right?" The cicada-winged demon spoke, with a body and appearance like a child, but a voice like an old man of several decades.

"Are the clothes good? I don't know, they are not my own." Yin Buchen pinched his belly through his clothes, "I don't have much meat, a little more than the old man in the fire, and I'm better than you." Far from it. The fire is too small. Let me make it bigger."

Yin Buchen put his right hand into his left sleeve and fumbled for a while, then took out a handful of powder and sprinkled it into the fire. The flames rose up and reached the top of the cave, illuminating the entire cave as bright as day.

The two demons were shocked. The cicada-winged demon had already shown its green fingertips, but then retracted them. The two-horned beast demon turned to look at the newcomer and spoke for the first time, "Are you a magician?"

"Anyway, I'm not a magician." Yin Buchen chuckled twice.

The abilities of ordinary demons are innate and can become stronger and stronger without much change. However, the abilities of a demon master are learned and may not be very strong, but they are all highly respected among the demon clan.

The cicada-winged demon spread its wings and flapped twice to express welcome and peace, "I didn't expect to meet a magician here. My name is Cicada Guang, from Ice City."

The two-horned beast demon also gave up the idea of ​​killing the sorcerer and shook the two big horns on his head, "My name is Qi Xuanfeng, from Langyuan."

"Where's this one?" Yin Buchen pointed to the charred corpse in the fire.

The two demons shook their heads at the same time, and the cicada-winged demon said politely: "We don't know each other, but we happened to meet each other tonight. May I ask your name?"

"My name is Yin Buchen, from Nanhai."

The two demons had obviously never heard of this name. Qi Xuanfeng thought for a while and asked, "Are you from the iron-spine dragon clan?"

"Um."

"Rumor, am I not living a good life?"

The two demons didn't ask any more questions. The heat generated by the strong flames made them satisfied. Yin Buchen could say whatever he wanted.

"One is from Langyuan and the other is from Bingcheng. Where are you going?" Yin Buchen asked.

Qi Xuanfeng lowered his head in silence, and Chan Guang sighed, "Go wherever you can, it's better than staying in Ice City and waiting to die. Alas, the demon tribe really has no way to survive. There are Taoist priests in the south and monsters in the north. Let's fight each other. To kill again and again.”

"The Ice City is the safest place in the land of demons, right? Taoist priests don't dare to go in. How can staying there be 'waiting for death'?"

Chan Guang looked at Yin Buchen, "You haven't been to the north for a long time, right?"

"Haha, you're right. I've been living in the South China Sea, and later wandered in the south of the demon land. This is my first time in the north."

"Go back, I advise you not to go north anymore."

"Why? I'm going to visit the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons. I heard that after the death of the Giant Demon King, the Banshee Queen of Ice City recruited sages, and I want to make achievements under her."

Hearing that Yin Buchen was going to pay homage to the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons, Chan Guang shrank his body and stopped talking. He came from Ice City and was quite afraid of the Banshee Queen.

Qi Xuanfeng of Langyuan took over from Chan Guang and said, "Don't go to Ice City. The Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons doesn't need so many "sages". One Yi Shijun and a faceless Taoist priest are enough. You might be killed if you go."

"The faceless Taoist priest refers to the woman named Lan Binghu, right?"

Qi Xuanfeng nodded.

"Who is Yi Shijun?"

"That Yi Shijun, you must have heard of him, right?"

"Of course I have heard of him, but there are too many fakes now, so we have to be careful. As far as I know, Yi Shijun has disappeared for many years, and the one in Bingcheng is probably fake too, right?"

Qi Xuanfeng shrugged his shoulders. He was a wolf demon, and he had only heard about the things in Bingcheng, but didn't know the details.

Chan Guang raised his head, and the cave was getting warmer and warmer, all thanks to this sorcerer. Chan Guang felt that he shouldn't hide anything anymore, "Yi Shijun in Bingcheng is definitely real, his magic is powerful, and he increased the height of the city wall of Bingcheng by more than twice overnight. Once a group of demons suspected his identity, he used a spell to burn them all to ashes. His ability is stronger than the giant demon king and greater than the Taoist priest."

"Did you see all this with your own eyes?"

"I saw the heightened wall with my own eyes, but I haven't seen Yi Shijun himself."

"Since this Yi Shijun is so powerful, why did you escape from Bingcheng? "Chan Guang hugged his shoulders, and the wings behind him trembled several times. "Ice City is going to war with the monsters in the north. I don't want to participate." "Monsters in the north? You've mentioned it several times. What exactly is that?" "Ice Kui." The answerer was Qi Xuanfeng. Lang Yuan was in the north of Bing City. He knew more about "monsters". "They are a group of things that are more terrible and cruel than Taoist priests. They are like the monsters. They can live in unclean air. They kill monsters when they see them and never leave them alive." Qi Xuanfeng and Chan Guang buried their heads between their legs at the same time and didn't speak for a long time. "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Yin Buchen was puzzled. He vaguely remembered that he had heard of Ice Kui in the monster barracks before, but he didn't care at that time. Finally, Qi Xuanfeng raised his head, "Bingkui is not a monster, nor a human. They... You can't fight them at all. You're so scared before you even meet them. Once you see their appearance, you will kneel down involuntarily and let them cut off your head."

"It sounds like some kind of witchcraft or curse." Yin Buchen paused for a while, "Isn't the Holy Mother of Wanzi afraid of Bingkui?"

"Yes, the Holy Mother was originally going to lead all the monsters in Bingcheng to the Monster Mountain Pass to join the Giant Monster King." Chan Guang also raised his head and sighed again, "But the Giant Monster King was killed by the Taoists. At this time, Yi Shijun and the faceless Taoist came. They persuaded the Holy Mother to stay in Bingcheng and said that they could defeat Bingkui. The Holy Mother was convinced, but I still feel scared. I think this is a sign that Bingkui is about to attack..."

"How long have you been away from Bingcheng?" Yin Buchen asked.

"Two or three days." Just mentioning Bingkui a few times made Chan Guang tremble all over, and Qi Xuanfeng, who was sitting opposite him, was the same. The courage and courage to kill the three-eyed monster just now were gone.

"Were Yi Shijun and Wumian Taoist still in Bingcheng three days ago?"

"Yes. Uh, I didn't see Yi Shijun, but I saw Wumian Taoist flying in the sky."

Yin Buchen stood up, "Alas, people on the road are really miserable. No matter how warm the cave is, we can't stay for long. Goodbye, both of you."

The two demons also stood up to see him off. They always respect the magicians.

Yin Buchen walked to the entrance of the cave, took a look at the wind and snow in the dark night, turned around and asked, "There must be demons in Bingcheng who have seen Yi Shijun? How did they describe it?"

Chan Guang thought blankly for a while, "Yi Shijun seems to have lost a leg. There is such a saying, I don't know whether it is true or not."

Yin Buchen sprinkled a handful of powder into the fire again, turned around and walked into the night, turned a corner, flew against the wind, and the blizzard hit his face. He began to miss the fire in the cave.

Flying over the ridge, he saw Qilin and the Taoist.

Mu Xingqiu stood on the flea's back and looked far to the north. There was a large cloud that Tianmu could not penetrate.

"I did find out some information. It's a little strange, but it's quite useful." Yin Buchen flew to Mu Xingqiu. The wind was so strong that he was swaying left and right. "Let's talk about the most important thing first. The Yi Shijun in Bingcheng, I guess it's Fei Ba. I don't know how this guy escaped from Yashan and teamed up with that old woman Lan Binghu."
