Exorcism

The young officer held his breath, which was not difficult because he had forgotten how to breathe at all.

The bald man smiled at him for a while, but found that it had no effect, and retreated behind the tree. Soon, another face appeared from behind the tree. The officer recognized this person. This was a veteran deputy he had brought with him. Although he could not remember his name, his appearance was unmistakable. The only strange thing was that he was also smiling. , kept nodding, not even half as majestic as the Xuan Fu Army.

The officer still didn't move, so the faces behind the tree kept changing, as if they had to use this method to attract him.

Previously, the officer abandoned the soldiers and ran away alone, and did not see the scene of the fight, but now he was very sure that only the heads of the faces laughing at him were left.

When he thought of more than a dozen lonely heads smiling at him in turn, the officer's patience soon came to an end. He screamed and fell. The bay-red horse was frightened, jumped a few steps, and then stopped. It was a little bit. Didn't notice the danger either.

The screams woke everyone up. Xiaoqiu and Fangfang's heads hit each other, causing the pain to cause both of them to scream at the same time.

The teenagers were in a mess, and it took them a while to see the officer who was still screaming.

The heads that appeared in turn finally lost their patience and failed to seduce. The manipulator behind the scene revealed his true face. Two or three feet high, a huge snake head was suspended in the air, with two lantern-sized yellow eyes shining with cold light.

This time, there were no soldiers from the Xuanfu Army fighting in the front line. The snake demon seemed to know that this was a group of humans with little fighting power, so it slowly lowered its height and looked at them one by one.

The young officer finally stopped screaming and fainted for the third time in less than a day.

The teenagers in Yelin Town had escaped twice before, but this time under the direct gaze of the snake demon, their legs seemed to be frozen and they could not move. They could only stand in place obediently. Extreme panic caused their minds to A numbness.

The snake demon crawled around the teenagers, stopped when they were connected head to tail, and trapped them in its body. Then it continued to stare at the humans, spitting out long snake messages at everyone, as if it was looking for something.

When the teenagers were able to speak, Erliang was the first to think of a possibility and said in a trembling voice: "It has eaten enough during the day, and now it surrounds us and saves it for breakfast."

Such a scene frightened everyone. Lengzi was a little fatter than the others. He was especially frightened when he heard this. He leaned close to Ershuan, "What should we do? How about we hand over your bay-red horse?" .

The snake demon was not interested in bigger food. The bay horse was kept outside. It ran a little further, sniffing everywhere for green grass. It did not abandon its master, but it never thought of saving its master.

Er Shuan swallowed dryly, hid the long sword behind his back, and whispered: "Look for the right opportunity and run away if you can."

Looking at the snake body that was taller than themselves in the night, the teenagers couldn't figure out how to have a chance to escape.

"It's capturing prisoners." Xiaoqiu suddenly had an idea.

The giant head of the snake demon gradually lowered, and finally it was only a few feet above the ground. Its eyes were parallel to those of the teenagers, and its mouth made a hissing sound, as if it was giving some kind of order.

Xiaoqiu took a step, and the teenagers gathered together nervously, but they were also filled with admiration in their hearts.

"Me." Xiaoqiu looked into the snake demon's huge round eyes, trying not to blink, and pointed at herself, and then pointed at the fainted officer not far away, "Wake him up, and then we will go with you ”

The snake demon blinked, as if trying to understand what the little human said.

Then he nodded, actually understanding.

The fool held Er Shuan's arm, "What do you mean, Xiaoqiu? Follow it? Where are you going?"

Er Shuan broke free from Lunzi's hand, winked slightly at his friends, and told them not to be afraid, Xiao Qiu had his own ideas.

Xiaoqiu slowly walked towards the officer.

The officer happened to faint near the middle part of the snake demon's body. Xiaoqiu turned his back to the snake's head, knelt on the ground and pushed hard.

The officer slowly opened his eyes, and first looked at Xiaoqiu with a blank expression. Then he noticed the huge and slippery snake body next to him. He sat up and opened his mouth wide to scream again.

Xiaoqiu covered the officer's mouth and said, "Stop screaming, what's the use?"

The officer's eyes widened and he nodded reluctantly.

The officer nodded again.

"Can you stand up?"

The officer still nodded.

Xiaoqiu removed the hand covering her mouth and thrust a stack of paper charms to the officer with her other hand.

The officer was stunned and understood Xiaoqiu's intention. He finally got back his protective paper charm, but he didn't have the courage to use it, "My leg..."

Xiaoqiu helped the officer stand up, grabbed his shoulders and shook him twice, "Are you feeling better? Can you walk?"

The officer nodded first, then shook his head, not even daring to look at the snake demon.

Xiaoqiu really wanted to beat the officer as hard as Er Shuan. A dignified member of the Xuanfu Army, he was stern and cold when facing prisoners, but when he needed to step in, he was as scared as a sheep. He was more timid than the most timid young man in Yelin Town. It's better that Fangfang is a girl and not as incompetent as him.

The snake demon moved its head over and stopped a few feet away to observe the two humans. The officer was so frightened that he almost collapsed again. Xiaoqiu supported him and then blocked the front as much as possible to prevent the snake demon from seeing the two humans. stack of paper charms

"If you can't move, I have to give you to it to fill its stomach first." Xiaoqiu said, secretly holding the dagger in his right hand. When he had no way to go, he was not very afraid, and he would not sit still and wait for death anyway.

The officer regained his composure after extreme panic, "I can move, don't, don't give me to it."

Xiaoqiu took a step forward, faced the snake head that was taller than him, and said loudly: "Where are you going? Are you starting now?"

The snake's head slowly lifted up, and stopped when it rose to a height of more than a foot. It looked down at the tiny human being. A green light flashed strangely in its lantern-like yellow eyes, moving from left to right, and quickly disappeared. Then, It opened its mouth, revealing long fangs and an unfathomable black hole.

"What is it doing? Isn't it trying to capture prisoners?" Xiao Qiu asked doubtfully.

The officer was the only one who knew something about the demon. He had just gathered the courage to escape, "It's not going to take us away, it's going to absorb human essence and cultivate the demon body, so it wants to keep us all alive. Because there are only living people..."

He couldn't talk anymore and wanted to faint again so that the snake demon would no longer be interested in him.

Xiaoqiu was actually very scared, but this fear did not make him lose his courage. Instead, he developed a fighting spirit in a desperate situation. He suddenly pulled out his dagger, shouted at the black hole above his head, and got ready to face the enemy.

The snake demon remained unmoved. The more active the prey, the better the effect of cultivating the demon body.

Xiaoqiu's brave actions were an inspiration to the besieged teenagers. Ershuan raised the long sword behind him with both hands, took long strides and rushed towards the nearest snake body, shouting louder than Xiaoqiu.

Er Shuan slashed at the snake with one sword, hoping to open a passage. With a bang, the sharp Talisman Sword did not cut off even a scale. Instead, it was bounced into the air and landed heavily on the ground. Er Shuan had a ruthless force of its own. Jiner, without any weapons, pounced on the snake and opened its mouth to bite.

The snake demon didn't care about such attacks and ran towards the nearest human with its mouth wide open.

The black hole was getting closer and closer, and Xiaoqiu was still shouting loudly. Behind him, the officer finally gathered enough courage and raised his right hand, "Bye kill!"

A white light like a wheel flew up from the officer's hand at high speed and went straight to the snake demon's yellow eyes.

This was not a vigorous blow from a young man from a small town, but a powerful force from the first-class paper talisman of Xijie Kingdom. The snake demon obviously did not expect this move, and the snake's head swung to let go of the light.

Xiaoqiu didn't expect this, but she felt that the officer's attack was too fast and inaccurate. More than ten paper talismans were fired, but they only raised the snake's head a little higher, without hitting it at all.

"Hit the snake! Hit the snake!" Xiaoqiu reminded loudly, but the officer was like crazy and couldn't stop at all. He didn't look at Xiaoqiu until his hands were empty and he opened his mouth and said, "No, no more."

The snake demon was angered. The snake's head swayed in the air twice and then swooped down, intending to fight quickly.

At the same moment, Xiaoqiu also made a move, pounced on the snake, gripped the dagger and stabbed it hard, knowing that this move was useless, but still refused to give in.

puff!

To everyone's surprise, this stab penetrated the scales and penetrated the snake's body.

The snake demon was even more surprised. Although the dagger was not long, it was a little wary. The snake's head rose again, its body swayed violently, and Xiao Qiu was thrown out together with the dagger.

"Yes, use a dagger! Use a dagger! This is a treasure that has killed monsters." The officer shouted. He just remembered that the dagger was his own, and it was a magical thing with a rich history. As he spoke, he moved his hands and feet. He ran towards the back, hoping to be further away from the snake's head.

Xiaoqiu got up from the ground, and the blow was effective. He became more courageous, shouted and rushed over again.

Er Shuan, who was behind, was stunned for a while, ran a few steps, picked up the long sword on the ground, shouted the same, followed Xiao Qiu and attacked the snake head. ． kanhco

The desire to compete for the position of the young leader of Yelin Town overwhelms all fears. Even if there is an abyss ahead, Er Shuan will jump down without hesitation.

The other teenagers also shouted, but they still didn't dare to move, but they cheered without sparing any effort, shouting at the top of their lungs. Several people's faces turned red and refused to stop.

The sharp voices merged into one, and they were somewhat high-pitched. The snake demon on the opposite side seemed to be restrained. Its two yellow eyes retracted back a few feet, and then quickly changed direction, with the intention of escaping.

Xiaoqiu and Ershuan were more confident. They didn't know how the snake demon, which could not be defeated by ten Xuanfu Army soldiers, could be afraid of the two children, so they sped up and chased after them.

The snake demon really wanted to escape, and it did so in a panic. It circled a big tree. The snake's body, which was almost as thick as the trunk of the tree, was like a moving hill. It slid past the two brave teenagers, and finally With a sweep of his tail tip, the two of them were taken a dozen steps away.

Xiaoqiu felt something falling in her arms, and hugged it. After landing, she looked down and saw that it was the head of a bald man, with a funny smile on his face. Xiaoqiu's hair stood on end, and he instinctively threw his hands back hard. , the last remaining part of the bald man was just discarded.

Xiao Qiu and Er Shuan were knocked away so easily, and the shouts of the teenagers became weaker. Only then did they suddenly understand that there was someone else who scared off the snake demon.

"Ding……"

The copper bell rang suddenly, and a ray of light fell from the sky slantingly, falling between the snake demon and the teenagers. The light dispersed, revealing a person who, except Fangfang and the officer, was recognized by the other teenagers.
