Becoming a God by Visualizing the Sun

Chapter 20 Assessment Mission!

Is the demon plague in Wuli Village related to the Liansheng Sect?
Qin Hao stepped forward and opened the file. The contents were as follows:
Wuli Village is located at the foot of Black Mountain. The villagers make a living from the mountain, hunting and collecting herbs.

More than half a month ago, many hunters disappeared after entering the mountains. At first, the village head did not take it seriously. The mountains were full of dangers, and even experienced hunters might not come back.

However, it was not until a monster came down the mountain to eat living people and many people were killed by the monster that people hurriedly reported it to the authorities.

"There's no core information about the monster's strength, type, etc?"

Qin Hao frowned slightly and asked a question.

Chen Tong took out two mint leaves from somewhere and stuffed them into his mouth. He put his legs on the table and said casually, "They are all illiterate mountain folk. After being frightened, they said all kinds of things. Some said it was the angry mountain god, and some said it was a hairy mandrill..."

"However, its strength should be that of a beginner demon, otherwise Wuli Village would have ceased to exist long ago."

As he spoke, he looked up at Qin Hao and said, "Your mission is to find out the situation in Wuli Village!"

To be a demon slayer, one needs not only great strength but also the ability to respond on the spot.

Because they have to face terrible demons!

They are not a group of dull monsters that would stay in one place obediently, waiting to be harvested by the demon slayers who came with them.

"There's no time to lose. The horses are ready. Let's set off now."

Chen Tong waved his hand.

"Yes!"

Qin Hao took a deep breath, clasped his hands and said goodbye.

Looking at his back.

The lean demon slayer beside him half-closed his eyes and said, "Boss, the situation in Wuli Village is unclear. It would be a bit difficult to hand it over to a newcomer for assessment, right?"

Chen Tong glanced at him, spat out the mint in his mouth with a "Pfft" sound, and asked lightly:

"Do you know who recommended him?"

"Zhang Yuan!"

Ok?
When this name was mentioned, the two demon slayers under his command looked up at the same time with surprised expressions.

This name, let alone the Demon Slaying Division in Lonely Mountain City.

Even if you look at the whole Qingzhou, it is well-known.

At first, the incident even reached the imperial court in Beijing.

"Captain Zhang has very high standards. What kind of person would catch his eye?"

Chen Tong looked at them with a smile and asked, "Let me ask you, how many acupoints have you opened now? How many years have you used it?"

"I am a fool. It has taken me four years to fill five acupoints since I started to condense my Qi and blood."

The thin young man responded with a smile.

Although he said "stupid", his expression was somewhat smug.

After four years, the five orifices of the initial realm are complete. At the age of about twenty, there is hope of igniting the fire of life and even reaching the realm of divine will.

To know.

There are some sects in the martial arts world where disciples may spend four years to fill up a single acupoint.

The smile on Chen Tong's face grew even more intense. "Qin Hao, that kid, I saw today that his complexion was rosy and his energy and blood were restrained. He must have finally opened up."

"Ten days ago, he hadn't even condensed his Qi and blood yet."

Hear the words.

The smile on the thin young man's face gradually froze.

Ten days?

From practicing to Qi and blood, and then to filling up one acupoint?
Are you kidding me?
Even with the help of the Blood Strengthening Pill, it still sounds too exaggerated.

What kind of talent and background does this require?
……

Outside the Demon Slaying Division.

The officials had already prepared the horses.

Wuli Village is three hours away from Gushan City. Riding a horse can save time and energy.

Galloping all the way.

It was not until the afternoon that a village appeared in his sight. Most of the houses were built with stone and earth walls, and they were not small in size.

"We've arrived at Wuli Village."

however.

Before he even got off his horse.

Then he saw an old man wearing patched clothes, running towards him hurriedly with a dozen villagers, as if they had been waiting for his arrival.

The old man gave a rather awkward salute and said excitedly, "I have finally waited for you, my Lord. If you don't come soon, I'm afraid our Wuli Village will be finished."

Qin Hao jumped off his horse and bowed slightly: "Demon Slayer Division, Qin Hao."

While speaking, he was also looking at the person in front of him.

Along the way, he was also studying the files.

This involves assessment tasks and lives, so we must not be careless.

The old man in the lead should be the head of Wuli Village, and he was the one who reported to the police.

"It's Master Qin. It's getting late. Master Qin has come a long way. Why don't you take a rest first and wait until tomorrow to explore the monster's trail."

The village head invited.

Hear the words.

Qin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly.

There's a demon plague in Wuli Village, and several people have died. As the village chief, why didn't he ask me to investigate first?
"No, I have a mission to complete. Besides, if I rest for one more day, one more person might die. It's better to deal with it in time."

Hearing this, the village head was stunned and nodded repeatedly in compliment: "Master Qin is young and promising, and has a kind heart. My Wuli Village is saved, it is saved!"

"My Lord, follow me."

As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked behind Qin Hao.

"Is Lord Qin the only one coming this time?"

Qin Hao raised his eyebrows: "Why? I alone is not enough?"

"Enough! Enough! Enough!"

The village head didn't dare to say anything more and quickly led the way.

The villagers on both sides also turned aside, looking at Qin Hao with evasive eyes, but a hint of... heat flashed deep in their eyes.

"Something's...wrong."

Enter Wuli Village.

Qin Hao was alert.

The file said that Wuli Village was attacked by monsters and many people died.

But in the village, smoke was curling up and the whole place was peaceful.

not only.

There seemed to be no sound of chickens crowing or dogs barking, which was extremely rare in the countryside.

He looked at the village head in front of him, who was over sixty years old, and suddenly asked, "Where was the last time the monster appeared?"

"South," the village head said without turning around, "there's a stream there. A villager went to fetch water, but was attacked by a monster and never returned."

"Alas, that monster only targets villagers who are alone. Now no one dares to go out alone."

"But now that Lord Qin has arrived, Lord Qin is from the Demon Slaying Division and will definitely be able to deal with this beast!"

Follow the footsteps of the village head.

Qin Hao came to the river bank.

It was winter and the snow had not melted yet.

There were many messy footprints on the river bank, some of which seemed to have been left just now.

"No blood."

According to the files and the description of the village chief, the monster should have just entered the initial realm, its intelligence has not been fully opened, and it will act according to instinct.

Hunting prey and catching it alive?

"Could it be a water ghost?"

But the stream only reaches the calves, making it difficult to hide a monster.

Qin Hao explored along the stream, but found no clues about the monster until evening.

"Master Qin, it's getting late. Why don't you go to the village and rest for a night? It won't be too late to investigate again tomorrow morning."

"Maybe the monster will appear again tonight."

The village head extended the invitation again.

Qin Hao glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled: "Okay, then I'll bother you, village chief."

"Don't bother me, don't bother me!"

The village head was delighted and quickly called out to the young men behind him, "Hurry up and prepare a house and food for Lord Qin. He is the benefactor who saved our village!"

Looking at his polite back.

Qin Hao's eyes flickered and his expression was indifferent.
