I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

In the dark night of Mianyuan County, there is a team of night watchmen patrolling.

The leader of the team was Monk Ma who had just been promoted to the chief banner officer.

Hearing the sudden sound of the gong, Monk Ma suddenly stopped his body, listened carefully, discerned the direction and distance of the gong sound, and frowned and said, "How can there be a gong sound in the middle of the night? Who is beating the gong?" ?”

A night watchman who was following him guessed, "Could it be a watchman?"

"The time is wrong, and the voice is wrong." Monk Ma shook his head.

According to the law, the watchman calls the watch every other hour.

Monk Ma and the others met the watchman not long ago, carefully counting the time, at most a quarter of an hour passed.

So it is impossible to make another update so quickly.

Moreover, playing more usually involves two people walking together, one for beating the gong and the other for beating the bang. So the sound made by Dageng should be "Du Tu... bang bang", but now there is only the sound of "Bang bang" when the gong is knocked, and there is no "Du Tuk" sound from Dabang.

After carefully debating the sound of the gong, a patrol officer nodded in agreement: "Your Excellency is right. The sound of the gong is deep and deep. It really doesn't sound like the sound of a watch gong, but a bit like the movement of a gong..."

This speculation immediately aroused discussions among the night watchmen.

"The opening gong? But in the middle of the night, the gates of the city are closed, so it is impossible for officials from outside to enter the city!"

"Could it be Anzhi County?"

"Impossible. Anzhi County never likes to disturb the people. They don't even sound gongs to clear the way when they travel during the day, let alone at night? Besides, he is an official close to the people, and it's not like we specialize in dealing with evil spirits. How can he go out in the middle of the night?"

"The gong?"

Hearing the night watchman's discussion, Monk Ma's heart skipped a beat.

He thought that besides the officials, there is another kind of existence, that gongs will be played when traveling, not only to remind pedestrians on the road to avoid, but also to deter demons and ghosts so that they do not dare to make trouble.

Could it be...

Monk Ma raised his hand, pointed in the direction of the sound of the gong, and asked, "If I remember correctly, is the Town God's Temple in that direction?"

Although everyone didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned the Town God's Temple, they nodded their heads immediately and replied: "The sound of the gong came from the direction of the North City Gate, and the Town God's Temple is indeed over there."

"Let's go, let's go and have a look." Monk Ma no longer hesitated, and even led the team towards the direction of the sound of the gong.

At the same time, he also instructed his subordinates: "Pick up your ears and listen carefully, and count how many times the gong sounds."

After a while, the deep and heavy gong stopped.

Before Monk Ma could open his mouth to ask, the night watchmen who followed behind him said one after another: "My lord, there have been seven rings."

Monk Ma nodded slightly. He was also silently counting the number of gongs just now, and it was indeed seven.

"If it's really a gong to open the way, the county magistrate will go out if the gong is struck seven times... Could it be that it is really the city god of Mianyuan County? But didn't Xiucai and the old Taoist say that the city god of Mianyuan County has long since fallen? Where did this city god come from now? Is he real? Or is it a fake ghost? Does it have anything to do with the fact that my lord in the afternoon asked me to go to Shangxiang Tongming?"

Many questions emerged in Monk Ma's mind.

Those who meet and see the gong can get the answer.

Their team was very fast. Even when they were fully armed, armored and helmeted, it didn't take long for them to rush to the north of the city.

From a distance, they saw two lanterns floating out of a courtyard.

The two lanterns were really floating, and there was no one around them. From a distance, they looked like a pair of huge eyeballs.

Behind the lantern, there floated a sedan chair that looked like a shrine.

Those who carried the sedan chair were not people, but eccentric clay figures—the statues of little ghosts in the Town God's Temple.

Behind the shrine, there are still a few signs floating, with the words "avoid" and "quiet" written on it.

The inspector had better eyesight, and immediately reminded: "My lord, that sedan chair floated out of the Town God's Temple."

Holding a knife in one hand and a special compass in the other, the shackle officer looked at the strange lanterns, sedan chairs, statues of imps, and fate cards flying under the night streets, just a burst of detection.

"The compass didn't move, and no evil or ghost aura was detected on the lanterns, sedan chairs, little ghost statues, and life cards."

"Could it be that the City God is on tour?"

"But the City God of Mianyuan County, hasn't he fallen long ago?"

The words of the shackle officer did not make everyone relax their vigilance. While discussing in low voices, they all drew their knives out of their sheaths, and put on a posture of being ready for battle.

Some even held the Cloud Piercing Arrow, ready to warn others at all times.

Everyone is an old night watchman, so they naturally understand that the fact that no evil or ghost aura has been detected does not mean that there is no problem with this weird traveling team. It is also possible that they are too powerful, or have some special supernatural powers that interfere with the detection of the compass.

"My lord, do you want to stop this team?" the patrol officer asked in a low voice.

"Stop it!"

Monk Ma ordered in a deep voice without the slightest hesitation.

As a night watchman, if you see a supernatural phenomenon in the middle of the night, you must check it out.

What's more, this team with strange origins has not been reported to the town demon division. If there is any problem, if they don't investigate, won't it harm the people in the city?

Regardless of whether this team is a ghost, a human, or a fairy god, since they are in the territory of Daxia and the jurisdiction of the Zhenyaosi, they must abide by the law and act according to the rules.

Hearing Monk Ma's order, more than a dozen night watchmen rushed up immediately and surrounded this weird team.

However, they were not in a hurry to act, because they were not sure about the other party's identity and purpose.

Holding a Zen stick in his hand, Monk Ma strode to the front of the lantern and sedan chair.

This Zen stick is a weapon specially tailored for the horse monk. One end of the Zen stick is heavy and can be used as a war hammer, and the other end is pointed and sharp, which can be used as a knife and gun.

In addition, the iron ring on the Zen staff can issue Sanskrit mantras under the action of blood energy, helping the horse monk to display the monk's supernatural powers.

Monk Ma threw his Zen stick to the ground, and as his blood raged, the iron ring on the Zen stick immediately made a Sanskrit chanting sound. While blessing the night watchmen around him, he also gave blessings to the lanterns, sedan chairs, and statues of little ghosts, etc. , causing interference.

Amidst the chanting, Monk Ma shouted sharply: "Stop! This place is under the jurisdiction of the Yaosi Town of Mianyuan County. Who are you, why are you traveling in the middle of the night, and where do you want to go?"

The flying lanterns, sedan chairs and statues of imps stopped as promised.

Immediately afterwards, the car curtain rolled up slowly, and a familiar face appeared in front of Monk Ma and the night watchmen.

He was still the same as before, bowing his hands and saluting to everyone, and said with a smile: "Ma Zongqi, all comrades, you are safe and sound. I am going out late at night to meet the appointment of adults."

Seeing this person, Monk Ma opened his mouth wide in shock.

The surrounding night watchmen reacted similarly to him.

A quarter of an hour later, the strange lanterns and sedan chairs swayed and flew to the gate of the demon town.

Together with him, there is Monk Ma and his group.

Although they knew the identity of the person inside the sedan chair, they did not let down their vigilance, they still surrounded him and escorted him all the way back to the demon town.

Because they were not sure whether the person in the sedan chair was real or not, or whether it was some ghost or heretic pretending to be one.

I'm not sure if this person is still the boy he used to be, or if he has changed.

So they chose to deal with it cautiously.

In the yamen of Zhenyao Division, Qin Shaoyou has not rested yet.

He is practicing in the messenger room, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

Suddenly, he felt a throbbing in his heart.

Opening his eyes, he got up and walked to the door of the police room, and saw Monk Ma and the others, half escorted and half escorted, surrounded by a sedan chair, and entered the Yamen of Zhenyaosi.

"It's really here..."

Just as Qin Shaoyou was thinking, Zhu Xiucai and Cui Yougui, who were in charge of the night duty, walked out of the duty room together.

Seeing this weird sedan chair, they were all a little surprised.

Before the two could speak, Qin Shaoyou also walked out of the messenger room, and greeted them, "Let's go, go and meet our City God."

At the same time, the flying little ghost statue lowered the sedan chair.

The car curtain opened by itself.

A person floated out of it, bowed to Qin Shaoyou, and said gratefully: "The humble Cai Guizhong, I have seen you again!"
