I can't be a demon.

Chapter 159: Visitors from the Land of Daughters

Yanliang Town.

Because it is close to the New Year, lights and decorations are hung everywhere, making it more lively than in previous years.

Mainly because of the holding of the [Welcome Zhong Kui] temple fair, thousands of believers were welcomed and the air was filled with the smell of incense.

Ever since Zhong Kui came to exorcise demons, there have been very few demons in the Yanshan area.

Nowadays, when people from Yanshan leave their hometown, they will carry the statue of Lord Zhong Kui with them and burn incense every three days. It is said that it is very effective.

"Don't be afraid of demons, there is Zhong Kui above your head!"

There was an endless stream of beating of gongs and drums.

The lion dance walked through the streets, shaking its head, and the onlookers cheered.

In the festive atmosphere, only Wang Xin seemed out of place.

Wang Xin walked through the streets with a serious expression, exuding an air of "keep away from strangers", and walked silently towards the city gate.

"No, it feels like there are prying eyes everywhere in the city."

Just as he was about to leave Yanliang Town, his internal energy surged.

Wang Xin stopped in his tracks. The unspeakable danger made Shengyingjing suddenly anxious, and he was unable to escape from the town.

“Is it really a demon?”

He had noticed something was wrong with himself half a month ago.

The middle dantian located in the chest suddenly felt an inexplicable vitality. If you placed your palm on the middle dantian, you could clearly hear another faint heartbeat.

It's as if a demon is parasitic in the body.

Wang Xin’s consciousness poured into his middle dantian, but he could only see nothing.

"This is a big trouble. I hope Shen Lian can return to Yanliang Town as soon as possible, otherwise..."

Wang Xin looked around and found that all the men had the same situation, with their heartbeats in their dantian, but they had not noticed it.

Apart from the government office, the doctors also knew about this, but were forbidden to spread it outside.

Wang Xin narrowed his eyes.

"Who would have thought that all the men in the city, including me, could be pregnant? What kind of demon is this? It can make a man who doesn't have a uterus become pregnant."

"Could it be related to the Kingdom of Daughters? But this cave is 180,000 miles away from Yanliang Town."

Wang Xin grabbed the token at his waist and wanted to report to the court, but as soon as he released his spiritual consciousness, his body and soul became uncontrollably disordered.

dong dong dong.

The heartbeat in the middle dantian intensified, and there seemed to be an invisible voice whispering in my ears.

Veins popped out on Wang Xin's forehead, and he was simply unable to perform a simple telepathic transmission. This continued for a long time until his spiritual power was exhausted, and he gave up.

He leaned his back against the wall exhausted, breathing heavily in frustration.

"I feel more and more that it's not the ordinary demons that are causing trouble, but..."

"Alchemist."

Wang Xin had a complicated expression. Once the alchemist was involved, it would be very troublesome, and he had no idea of ​​the other party's purpose.

Is it because of Shen Lian?
Wang Xin vaguely learned a piece of news that the court had identified Yanliang Town as a cave dwelling, which meant that the court also knew that there were demons lurking in the city. At the same time, the two words "Lü Zu" were obviously related to Shen Lian.

After all, the Eight Immortals’ discussion of Taoism came about because of Shen Lian.

Wang Xin had visited the statue of Lu Zu in Cangshan Town some time ago. His appearance was indeed similar to Shen Lian. It was said that Lu Dongbin was a Taoist land immortal three hundred years ago.

"The person who came here is not a good person."

"The alchemist made arrangements in advance, and it is very likely that he is targeting Shen Lian."

"My every move should be under the Taoist's eyes. Try not to alert the enemy and figure out their strengths and weaknesses first."

Wang Xin hesitated for a few moments, then walked through the city based on his sudden inspiration.

He then noticed that when he came near the Shen family pawnshop, his impulsive reaction was the most intense, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Turn around and look.

In the lobby of the pawnshop, Shen Hansheng seemed to be entertaining a woman.

The door was ajar, and a graceful woman was sitting at the table, with two strange-looking maids standing beside her.

The girl was about 28 years old, wearing colorful clothes and her face was covered by a veil.

What made Wang Xin shudder was that, except for the woman in the middle, the maids had indescribable strangeness and peculiarities.

They all have two heads.

Shen Hansheng seemed not to notice anything unusual and continued chatting with the woman.

Wang Xin felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. As far as he could remember, the alchemists in the Kingdom of Women had many heads, and even the Jinwu Guards called them multi-headed female Taoists.

"It is indeed a Taoist priest, and he has bad intentions."

After hesitating for a few moments, Wang Xin walked to the door of the pawnshop.

Shen Hansheng asked with a smug look on his face: "Miss Su, I wonder what your family background is like? You should have known it from Hongniang. I only have one child in my family, and he is usually lazy."

Wang Xin's pupils shrank slightly. Why did it feel like he was...getting married?
Miss Su covered her mouth and chuckled. The double-headed maid replied, "Miss's family is in the business of buying and selling medicinal herbs. They have businesses all over the Tang Dynasty. Master, don't worry about the young master being away from home all day."

As the maid spoke, the two heads spoke in unison, with identical expressions, which showed that the two heads did not have any extra souls.

Shen Hansheng nodded with satisfaction.

He continued to ask about the situation at home, and the two-headed maid responded one by one.

It seemed like an ordinary marriage, but Wang Xin found it strange and baffling, especially when he felt that his pregnancy was getting worse.

The two-headed maid's eyes occasionally flashed with greed when she looked at the mortals around her.

Miss Su said, "Master Shen, please go and do your work first. The young master should be home soon. We will wait in the lobby for a while."

Shen Hansheng looked dazed and walked away on his own.

People were coming and going in the pawn shop, but they passed by as if they didn't see the three women.

Wang Xin's consciousness became blurred. There was a secret technique that was erasing the relevant memories in his mind. He was relying on the inspiration of the Holy Infant Sutra to support himself. His legs softened and he fell to the ground. He vaguely heard the conversation between the three people.

"Miss, a barbarian from the Tang Dynasty saw you and me."

"Qing'er, don't pay attention to it. Don't forget that we are here to find Shen Lian on the orders of the Prime Minister to invite him to the Kingdom of Daughters to participate in the baptism."

Miss Su licked her lips, revealing a hint of barely perceptible excitement.

You know, the Kingdom of Women has never had a prime minister take the initiative to invite someone, and the other party is a Yuandan warrior with delicious meat.

It's really interesting.

Wang Xin suppressed his fear and his internal energy became disordered.

"Miss, he is an outsider. If he wants to get in touch with Zimu River, he must marry. I don't know how long he can survive in my daughter's country."

The two-headed maid covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "I have long wanted to taste the flavor of a Yuandan warrior."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Miss Su took a sip of tea and said, "He is the husband of the daughter country that the prime minister has chosen. Unless he is willing to let us share the food."

"He would probably be eager to give his heart and soul to marry a beauty like Miss."

The two-headed maid's eyes widened. "I really don't know what's so special about my son-in-law. Those mortals say he is the reincarnation of an immortal or Buddha, and they treat this town as an immortal's cave. It's ridiculous."

Miss Su said calmly, "Lü Dongbin's reincarnation, ghosts and gods protecting the way, these are all sayings in the secular world. The prime minister may think he is... delicious."

The two-headed maid echoed, "Indeed, otherwise how could the guardian spirits have no reaction at all to the measures we deployed in the city?"

Miss Su scanned the pawn shop.

No matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary store.

There were only a few ordinary servants, and there were no resources for cultivation in the house. There were some fruits, vegetables, and a few banyan trees planted in the backyard.

Miss Su's gaze lingered on the banyan tree for a few moments.

The banyan tree's branches and leaves are yellow and with dozens of shriveled fruits of unknown origin hanging on them. It is estimated that they may not survive until the next spring.

Little did she know.

Myna and Bone Blade had already left with Shen Lian, and to be on the safe side, the banyan tree's roots tried to extend as far as possible towards the Nujiang River.

The banyan tree itself appears to be withered, but in fact it is harbouring a demonic aura.

The reason why no action was taken against the alchemist was mainly because there was no threat.

That’s right, even if they set up secret operations throughout the city, Rongshu didn’t feel threatened!

Miss Su showed disdain and tapped the table lightly with her knuckles.

The prime minister seemed to attach great importance to Shen Lian, and even spent [Taisui Chehe] to let her open an entrance and exit to the cave in the city.

"There's no need for that. He's just a Yuan Dan warrior."

Miss Su had no intention of wasting the precious Tai Sui Che River. Yanliang Town had a large population, with more than 20,000 young and middle-aged men, all of whom were just enough to be used as consumables for opening entrances and exits.

The double-headed maid said loudly: "The young master is coming."

"kindness."

Blood was flowing from Wang Xin's facial features, but a sudden impulse allowed him to barely retain consciousness. He then reached out and took out the mind-transmitting talisman from his arms.

"They...what on earth do they want to do?!"

"I must inform Shen Lian, otherwise Yanliang Town will be devastated."

Wang Xin mobilized his internal energy, and flames ignited in his internal organs. The severe pain from the burning stimulated his body and soul, and his strength recovered a little as if it were a last gasp.

He held the talisman in his hand, ignoring the dangerous spiritual communication with the alchemist beside him.

"Shen Lian, I..."

Snapped.

Wang Xin felt a sharp pain in his back. The two-headed maid used her magic power to take away the talisman and stared at Wang Xin with a half-smile.

"Miss, this barbarian wants to ruin our good deeds."

"Take him to the backyard and kill him. Don't pollute my eyes."

Miss Su waved her hand.

The two-headed maid grinned immediately. In order to prevent the court from discovering the arrangements of the Kingdom of Women, she had suppressed her appetite for more than half a month.

Although the taste of Jinwuwei is average, it is still okay to have a quick taste.

The two-headed maid dragged Wang Xin towards the backyard.

"and many more!"

Miss Su stood up and looked towards the city gate, muttering to herself, "Something is wrong. The closer that person gets to Yanliang Town, the more nervous I become."

"Don't worry, young lady. You can't take the rumors in the market seriously."

The two-headed maid had just finished speaking.

Shen Lian happened to step into Yanliang Town, and suddenly a drastic change occurred in the city.

"he!!!!"

Miss Su was horrified. No matter how she looked at Shen Lian, he was always a Yuandan warrior with restrained qi and blood. So why was there a threat of death?
Then she realized how ridiculous her previous thoughts were.

In a perspective invisible to the naked eye.

"Ah~~"

The starling flew in the air, and the overwhelming shadow spread out in all directions.

Wherever Shen Lian passed, the shadows of the entire city were wriggling, and then countless bloody mouths opened up, and long and narrow tongues licked greedily.

The banyan tree is full of vitality, its roots and rhizomes are like blood vessels and meridians spread throughout the entire salt mountain, and the shriveled fruits on the branches are transformed into magical fruits with rich medicinal properties.

Ghosts are coming!

Weak ones, retreat! !
