I was held captive by demons

"Wait a minute," the father, who had always been taciturn, took the initiative to speak: "Come here, I have something to tell you."

Seeing this situation, Kong Ning was a little surprised, but obediently went to sit in front of his father.

Under the cold moonlight, a breeze blew by, and the leaves of the locust tree above the heads of the family of three trembled.

The expressionless father looked at Kong Ning and said, "I heard that you killed two monsters."

"Uh... yes, I killed two monsters," Kong Ning was a little confused: "Father, what's the problem?"

Didn't this happen ten days ago?Why did father think of asking him now?Your reflex arc is too long...

Kong Ning complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, he still respectfully listened to his old father's inquiries.

Under the locust tree, the expressionless father said: "You came back late today. Don't come back so late in the future. Go home before dark and don't fool around outside."

His father's tone was harsh and cold.

The mother on the side smiled and said: "Your father is worried about you... Ning'er, you killed two monsters before, and the whole city knew about it. Although you got a lot of attention, who knows if those two monsters are still there?" Friend? If there are other monsters who want to seek revenge from you, it will be dangerous."

"So go home early in the future, and come back before dark. You are late, and mother is worried."

The stern father, the kind mother, and the concern of the two old people warmed Kong Ning's heart.

In his previous life, he was an orphan without father and mother. Father's love and mother's love are beautiful things that can only be found in dreams.

Traveling to this world, although there are monsters everywhere and life and death are on the line, but with parents who care about him so much, everything is worth it.

Kong Ning nodded seriously, and said: "Okay, father, mother, I will come back before dark and won't stay outside."

With that said, Kong Ning was about to get up and enter the house.

But at this moment, the silent father spoke again.

"Hungry Ghost Festival..."

The father under the locust tree said coldly: "After the Ghost Festival is over, I won't say anything about you if you fool around outside in the dark."

Kong Ning looked surprised, but his mother added with a smile.

"What your father means is that there are still more than ten days before the Ghost Festival. If so many days have passed and no monsters have come to your door, it proves that it is safe and you don't have to worry about it."

"So Ning'er, at least be patient before the Hungry Ghost Festival. Before the Hungry Ghost Festival, no matter what happens, you don't spend the night outside, and you must go home before dark, so don't let your mother worry about you... is that okay? "

The mother's gentle and concerned question moved Kong Ning's heart.

He nodded and said seriously: "Ning'er knows, mother and father don't need to worry, I will definitely not spend the night outside before the Ghost Festival."

After earnestly assuring the two elders, Kong Ning led the jujube horse into the yard.

In this sinister world where demons are rampant and gods are extinct, his last warmth is his parents at home.In any case, the two old men cannot be worried.

Kong Ning thinks that he has done a good job in terms of filial piety.

Chapter 23 Su Yan's Advice

After tying the jujube horse, Kong Ning walked into his own wedding room.

Under the dim oil lamp, a beautiful woman in purple was sitting beside the bed sealing a paper package.

Although there are still about ten days to go until the Ghost Festival, the atmosphere of the festival is already very strong.Many shops in the county town began to sell paper money and paper ingots, and some colorful paper figures and horses also appeared on the streets as the Ghost Festival approached.

Every family and every household has started the work of wrapping paper bags in their free time after tea and dinner.Although there is no clear quantity requirement, the more paper bags you prepare for your ancestors, the better.

In the old days when there was no glue, the villagers cooked a pot of paste by themselves.Many children were jubilant, clamoring to eat the paste when it was just out of the pan.And as long as there is free time during the day, people will gather under the cool shade of trees and under the eaves, chatting and wrapping their own paper bags.

In the past few days, when Kong Ning rode a jujube horse on the street, looking around, almost the entire county was like this.

Even the monsters at home have started to seal paper bags.

Stacks of thick yellow paper were sealed into paper packages by Su Yan, and then sealed with glue.This female monster showed great enthusiasm for human festivals and sealed them very seriously.

When Kong Ning came in, there was already a small stack of paper bags beside her.

Seeing Kong Ning coming in, the female fairy who was sealing the paper bag raised her head and said with a smile: "My husband is back... are you hungry? Yan'er will cook for you."

Kong Ning shook his head and said, "Ma Liu and I ate at Zuixian Tower."

Su Yan nodded and continued with her work.

While sealing the paper package, Su Yan asked: "How many packages do my husband's family have to seal in previous years? Let Yan'er help my husband seal it this year."

This female monster with an inexplicable origin behaved very virtuously.

In other words, she has always been virtuous.

Three meals a day, never treat Kong Ning badly, all are delicious food and drink.In addition, Kong Ning does not need to worry about all the housework at home, such as washing and cooking, boiling water and cooking vegetables, feeding chickens and ducks, and is taken care of properly.

Even every time he inhales Kong Ning's yang energy, he has to ask Kong Ning for permission like a baby.

Even the sex in the bed, they are active and seductive, making Kong Ning ecstatic - Kong Ning has a great psychological shadow on this monster, and he dare not touch him at all.So every time the monster takes the initiative.

But such virtuousness is nothing but a hypocritical illusion.

After 70 years of practice as a demon, Kong Ning could clearly feel the demon eggs in his belly.

The demon egg grew up day by day, absorbing Kong Ning's blood energy, and when the demon egg matured, it was the day of Kong Ning's death.

Although the scorpion beauty in front of her looks beautiful and gentle, there is a cold viciousness hidden under the gentle appearance.Kong Ning will never be paralyzed by it.

Shaking his head, Kong Ning said: "My house is not celebrating the Ghost Festival, so you can make your own."

In Kong Ning's memory, his parents broke up with their relatives and moved to the small county town of Shanlan alone.Every year on the Ghost Festival, parents can't do it.

Every year when the rest of the city started burning paper, the parents urged Kong Ning to go to bed early.

Therefore, although Kong Ning has been in this world for 11 years, he has not had a serious Ghost Festival.

Seeing his answer like this, Su Yan was not surprised, she nodded and said: "So that's the case... Yan'er knows."

After finishing speaking, the demon girl lowered her head, continued to seal the paper package, and did not speak any more.

Kong Ning saw that she was so serious about sealing paper packages for her dead family members, she couldn't help but wonder if the monster really received the money after it died?

After all, Wan'er said that there was a problem with the City God of the Underworld.Even Wan'er, a rookie in cultivating immortals, knows something, and the monster in front of him must know it too.

But in the end, Kong Ning still resisted the urge to die and didn't dare to talk nonsense.

He hung the simple knife on the wall, took off his police uniform, and went to the backyard to take a shower with a set of clean uniforms in his arms.

When Kong Ning came back from the shower and was about to go to bed, he found that the paper bags in the wedding room had been piled up in the corner of the yard.Su Yan, who was dressed in purple, was about to go out.

Seeing Kong Ning approaching, the scorpion beauty smiled and said: "Husband, Yan'er can't sleep with you tonight. You have a good rest, Yan'er will try not to wake you up when she comes back."

The monsters at home still go out every night and don't come back until dawn.

When she came back a few times, Kong Ning found that her dress was damaged, obviously there was a fight, and the strength of the other party was not weak.

After the demon girl came back and took off her clothes and lay in Kong Ning's arms, Kong Ning could still smell a faint smell of blood from time to time.

Some bloody smells are from other monsters, and the breath is very mixed, but some are from Su Yan.

Several times, Kong Ning accidentally saw the wound on her hand.There was a vicious evil spirit in those wounds, which made it impossible for the wounds to heal quickly.

Kong Ning understood that the female monster at home didn't get along very well with those monsters in the county.

In other words, the battle became more and more intense.

Although he didn't know what they were fighting for, Kong Ning wisely chose not to ask more questions.

Nodding as always, Kong Ning said hypocritically: "Be careful."

Although he wished that the witch would die outside, but the other party did a good job on the surface, and he couldn't break the false superficial peace, right?

Su Yan smiled slightly, and said: "My husband, don't worry, Yan'er is fine. Those guys are just chickens and dogs, not worth mentioning."

With that said, Su Yan was ready to go out.

But before going out, he suddenly thought of something and said.

"By the way, husband, if you have nothing to do these days, don't stay outside when it gets dark."

"The Ghost Festival is coming, and the city is getting more and more dangerous."

"Those monsters are limited by the rules, maybe they won't attack you easily, but not necessarily other things."

"So you must go home before dark, and don't socialize outside like tonight."

"Yan'er is very worried about you."

Scorpio beauty is gentle and caring.

Kong Ning sneered in his heart, but his expression remained the same, and said: "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will go home before dark before the Ghost Festival."

Watching the woman in purple disappear outside the door, Kong Ning thought in his heart.

There seems to be some kind of ominous information contained in the reminder just now from the witch.

What is "other stuff"?

Could it be that in Shanlan County, besides those evil monsters, there are other evil things?

And deliberately emphasized that before the Ghost Festival, could it be... a ghost?

During the time when the Ghost Festival is approaching, will there be evil spirits raging in the city?

Standing at the door of the wedding room, Kong Ning took a deep breath, feeling the pressure.

This small Shanlan County seems to be getting more and more lively... There are immortal cultivators and monsters, and now even evil spirits seem to be appearing.

It seems that tomorrow I really have to meet that girl named Wan'er.

Let's see if she knows about the Ghost Festival.

Chapter 24 Bloody Smoke

After Su Yan left, Kong Ning went directly into the room, undressed and went to bed.

But not sleep.

Kong Ning, who was lying in the quilt, silently moved the demon power in his body, and practiced with his family's martial arts.Although the growth of demon power is better than nothing, he dare not relax.

Especially now that he knows the dangers of this world, he can't practice lightly.

In this treacherous world, there is no one who can rely on someone who can slay demons and subdue demons.The only thing Kong Ning can rely on is himself.

Until the middle of the night, Kong Ningchang, who was exhausted from practicing, let out a sigh of relief, stopped the operation of the demon power, and began to close his eyes to rest.

He didn't sleep for too long, and at dawn he felt that the demon girl had returned.

The other party opened the door lightly, changed his dress, and lay down under the quilt.

Kong Ning was used to this, turned over and continued to sleep.

There was a faint smell of blood in his nose, and the witch lay in the quilt and didn't hug her directly.

It seems that the other party was injured again tonight.

The closer to the Ghost Festival, the more serious the witch's injury, but the better her mood.Looks like she's had some sort of breakthrough in her fight against the town's monsters?

Kong Ning, who was lying on the bed, continued to sleep without saying a word.

After waking up early in the morning, after eating a bowl of Su Yan, Kong Ning rode a skinny jujube horse to the yamen to order food.

Now the person in charge of the fast shift Dianmao has been replaced by Kong Ning. Although everyone is still laughing and joking, they obviously respect Kong Ning a lot.After all, Kong Ning was determined to arrest the head, so he just waited for news from Zhang Rong.

And the time in the yamen during the day is the most relaxing time for Kong Ning.

There are no monsters staring at the side, bragging and playing cards with colleagues are beneficial to physical and mental health.

However, after today's Kongning Dianmao ended, instead of playing cards with his colleagues, he found an excuse to leave the Yamen and went out.

In this regard, the colleagues in the yamen are not surprised.After all, Kong Ning has been wandering outside almost every day these days.

This is the foreshadowing that Kong Ning made in advance, he suspects that the monster at home has an eyeliner in the yamen, or can find out his approximate location.So every day even if he had nothing to do, Kong Ning would wander around the city on a jujube horse.

In this way, when Kong Ning really had something to leave the Yamen, he could not attract anyone's attention.

Today, although Kong Ning was going to see Wan'er, he didn't go directly to the south of the city.He first rode a horse to the bank of the Wangjiang River, walked lazily along the embankment, and finally found a secluded place to sit down.

Consciousness sank into the dantian.

In the empty sea of ​​dantian qi, a mysterious black tank floats up and down silently.The white mist in the jar has been accumulated, Kong Ning can finally use the black jar's search ability again.

This matter is much more important than finding Wan'er.
