Catching Monsters

Chapter 163: Mirror of Evil (Added)

Late at night, on the banks of the Tongqu River outside the capital, Jiang Yun, Xu Xiaogang, Qi Da and his party, a total of thirteen people, were riding horses, heading upstream of the Tongqu River.

In the early years, Tongqu River was an important water source for the capital city. However, as the capital city continued to expand and grow, the water flow of Tongqu River could not sustain the drinking water consumption of the entire capital city.

About two hundred years ago, a canal was dug to the southeast of the capital.

The group went up along the river, galloping on horseback. Jiang Yun also smeared rooster blood on his forehead at this time, opening the path to the underworld, allowing him to see ghosts and gods.

There is indeed something wrong with this Tongqu River, although the Pu Pu has not been found yet.

But Jiang Yun could see that there was a faint black evil aura on the surface of Tongqu River.

Jiang Yun frowned and told Xu Xiaogang, Qi Da and others around him about the strangeness on the river.

Everyone instantly perked up. This epidemic had ravaged the entire capital city, and it wasn't just the East Pacification Office that was searching for this evil creature.

The Northern and Southern Pacification Offices both dispatched personnel to search within the capital.

Everyone wants to grab the credit.

The group rode at full speed, holding torches in their hands, and continued to rush upstream under the cover of night.

In one breath, I ran almost forty kilometers.

If he had not been able to see the faint evil aura on the surface of the river, he would have returned home long ago. No wonder the Jinyiwei who had been searching along the Tongqu River gave up so quickly.

The evil energy on the river surface became more and more intense. Jiang Yun said in a deep voice: "Everyone be careful."

Jiang Yun didn’t know what Pu Pu looked like. He had asked Xuan Daozi before, but Xuan Daozi shook his head and said he didn’t know.

This Pu Pu Gu Gu was only recorded and rarely appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

There has been no record of Gugu's unique ability to escape in previous records.

But no one knows what Pu Pu looks like.

"drive!"

Thirteen fast horses went up the river, and then Jiang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

In the center of the river ahead, a majestic evil energy was emanating. This evil energy seeped into the river water and flowed down the river.

"Found it." Jiang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

He turned around and reminded everyone: "Found it."

The eyes of Qi Da and many other Jinyiwei also lit up.

Perhaps sensing danger approaching, the water suddenly began to boil.

Then, Jiang Yun's whole body trembled slightly, and a strong sense of crisis came from the water.

A huge black figure slowly stood up from the river.

"Is this Pu Pu?" Jiang Yun looked at the huge creature in front of him, a little stunned.

This Pu Pu is a huge creature, five meters tall, covered with black hair similar to Gugu.

He has a human form, a hideous face like a monkey, and exudes a strong evil aura.

"Roar!"

It bared its fangs and roared so loudly that it scared away the birds hiding in the nearby woods.

Its eyes were bloodshot, and in its gaze was the murderous aura that an evil creature should have.

At this time, the two Jinyiwei had already taken out the crossbows they carried with them and shot them towards Pu Pu at a rapid speed.

"Wait!" Jiang Yun wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

Two arrows flew out and accurately hit Pu Pu's chest.

But its skin was thick and tough, so it just lowered its head slightly and pulled out the two arrows.

"Roar!"

Although it was huge in size, it was extremely flexible and quickly rushed to the shore and rushed towards the crowd.

Damn!

Jiang Yun gritted his teeth slightly. He could feel that the strength of this Pu Pu was far beyond his expectations.

It’s mainly because of Gugu’s cute and harmless appearance, plus the name Pupu…

Jiang Yun subconsciously thought that this Pu Pu might be similar to Gu Gu, but it could spread evil spirits that brought disasters.

But I didn't expect it to be like this.

"Disperse!" Jiang Yun hurriedly ordered, and quickly took out a yellow talisman:
"The true fire of Samadhi, the light flows for thousands of miles. It illuminates the heaven and earth, and shines in all directions. The rivers and seas are boiling, and the demons are hiding. The Southern Dipper descends, and the light of Samadhi flows."

"Refine the fetus to change the quality, refine the soul to make it healthy. All the monsters will die and fly away on the smoke. Hurry up and obey the command."

The Samadhi True Fire instantly burned up and gushed towards Pu Pu. But Pu Pu had no intention of dodging, but rushed towards the Samadhi True Fire head-on. In an instant, the hair on his body burned with the Samadhi True Fire.

But the next moment, it opened its bloody mouth and a gust of wind blew out of its mouth.

This strong wind kept blowing on its body, and it actually used its mouth to blow out the Samadhi True Fire.

Jiang Yun's face darkened. Who the hell is this guy?

This is the Samadhi Fire! It can burn the soul.

This guy blew it out with just his mouth?
But there was no time to think about it, because Pu Pu had already rushed forward, raised his arm, and swept over.

Jiang Yun quickly jumped up, and the horse he was riding was slapped away and crashed into a rock in the distance, with blood and flesh flying everywhere.

Although Jiang Yun jumped up, he was still within its attack range. He stretched out his hand and tried to grab Jiang Yun. If he was caught, he would instantly crush Jiang Yun into a pool of meat paste.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Xu Xiaogang rushed up, drew his sword, and stabbed it into its arm.

With a whoosh, Pu Pu looked towards Xu Xiaogang, opened his bloody mouth, and bit Xu Xiaogang's arm.

Xu Xiaogang was agile and kicked it in the face, using the force to move away.

At this moment, Jiang Yun also looked for an opportunity to create some distance.

At this time, Xu Xiaogang was constantly fighting with the giant evil creature Pu Pu. Fortunately, he was agile, but he was still in danger.

"Demon-subduing Net!" Qi Da shouted loudly upon seeing this.

All the Jinyiwei present had a hook tied around their waists. They quickly rushed forward and surrounded Pu Pu.

Hooks and ropes were thrown out by them. They were well-trained and the hooks were hung in the air, forming a big net that fell down.

Afterwards, all the Jinyiwei gathered their magical powers in their hands and feet in all directions and pulled the ropes tight.

This demon-hunting net was ingeniously designed. After Pu Pu was caught in the net, he kept struggling.

But as he struggled, the net became tighter and tighter.

Afterwards, everyone started to spin around Pu Pu, and the big net wrapped it up like a rice dumpling.

My whole body was trapped.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaogang also swung his sword, jumped up, and stabbed Pu Pu's heart fiercely with the sword.

With a "puff", Xu Xiaogang successfully stabbed into its heart.

To be honest, it was the first time that Jiang Yun saw so many Jinyiwei attacking together, and they cooperated very well.

Even though Pu Pu's power was far greater than theirs, with their cooperation, the situation was reversed in a moment.

This surprised Jiang Yun a little.

"Roar."

"Roar."

Pu Pu raised his head and let out a violent roar.

As if calling for something.

Jiang Yun's face changed slightly. Suddenly, many silver needles appeared in the forest and shot quickly towards the Jinyiwei who trapped Pu Pu.

The many Jinyiwei present quickly dodged in all directions.

But this dodge gave Pu Pu an opportunity to struggle to break free from the net.

Even stabbing its heart doesn't seem to kill it.

"Isn't the heart of this thing a weak point?"

Xu Xiaogang hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, get out of the way!"

Then, a figure jumped out from the distant forest and landed steadily on Pu Pu's shoulder.

The man was wearing a gold and black robe and a black mask, so his features could not be seen clearly.

He slowly reached out and touched Pu Pu's head.

Pu Pu soon quieted down.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun frowned slightly, looked at the masked man, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

The eyes revealed by the mask stared at Jiang Yun intently, and he said slowly: "You are the one who took Gugu away back then?"

Xu Xiaogang, who was standing next to him, looked gloomy. He looked at the other person's clothes and whispered to Jiang Yun, "This person seems to be from Niejingtai."

"Mirror of Evil?" This was the first time Jiang Yun heard this term.

Xu Xiaogang explained to Jiang Yun in a low voice: "It is said that there are only eighteen stable members of the Niejingtai. They travel around in various places in the name of the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and their actions are mysterious and unpredictable..."
