Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 52: Taking the Blame for No Reason (Happy National Day)

The four of them were defeated, and the defeat was without any suspense.

Be it the scholarly spirit of the Confucian cultivator or the huge amount of milk of the Night Doctor, they all collapsed in the face of absolute power.

This made Lin Hongwen feel very embarrassed. This was completely different from what he had imagined. He should be a hero, not a coward.

The saddest thing in the world is to become a coward in front of the one you love.

Lin Hongwen looked at his servant angrily. If these two people had not misrepresented the information, he would not have experienced such a shameful thing.

The two servant boys rolled their eyes and pretended to be dead.

The monster blew away the four people with a gust of wind. After they landed on the ground, they felt their bodies tighten. They were tied up with hemp ropes and thrown into a dark cave.

At this moment, Lin Hongwen wanted to die.

He understood the principle, but why did this damn monster tie him into such a strange posture? His legs, as a grown man, were tied in an M shape and in an awkward posture that was difficult to describe.

As a disciple of the dean of Luyun Academy, Lin Hongwen claimed to be a gentleman of Confucianism, and he always did things in a Confucian style. Even in the matter of pursuing Jiang Ningshuang, he still acted out of emotion but within the bounds of propriety, and never dared to overstep the line.

When encountering a monster, it would not matter if he lost in a head-on fight, but in front of his sweetheart, he was tied up by the monster in such a humiliating posture. Lin Hongwen trembled all over and felt that he had suffered the greatest humiliation in his life.

Jiang Ningshuang next to her raised her eyebrows, but she felt relieved in her heart.

Fortunately, the way the monster tied her up was quite normal, but I don’t know who the monster is.

Although they didn't want to admit it... they really didn't even see the monster's true appearance just now.

It's so embarrassing.

Seeing Lin Hongwen gradually collapse, Jiang Ningshuang comforted him, "Brother Lin, don't be angry. We won't spread this matter."

"So what do you think..." Lin Hongwen asked with his head down.

Jiang Ningshuang pursed her lips and said after a moment: "Well... I don't think it's funny at all, really."

"..."

Lin Hongwen was struck by lightning and became autistic on the spot.

……

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

The sound of footsteps was heard outside the cave, breaking the tranquility at the moment. The dead branches were stepped on with a "crackling" sound. A tall figure walked into the cave. The environment in the cave was dark, and Jiang Ningshuang's magic power was sealed, so she could not see the other person's specific appearance.

"Why don't you light the lamps? Are we in Cuiping Mountain so poor that we can't even afford to light a lamp?" A muffled voice sounded, like thunder in my ears.

“Great…Great King, please calm down. This is to create a dark and terrifying atmosphere and let them know that we are bad guys.”

"Stop talking nonsense and light the lamp for me!"

There was a thunder-like sound, and candlelight lit up in the cave. Only then could Jiang Ningshuang see the true appearance of the thing.

It turned out to be a cow spirit.

The cow demon has a strong and muscular body, black horns on its head, a purple gold hammer on its shoulder, a fierce face, broad shoulders and a big waist. There are two eagle monsters following beside it, who should be its subordinates.

As she got closer, the tall and strong Lin Hongwen seemed particularly petite in front of her.

When he came to the front, the cow demon put down the purple gold hammer heavily and said in a muffled voice: "Is this the handsome boy you mentioned? He looks so ordinary, and you dare to call him handsome?"

The Eagle Monster trembled and said, "My king... she looked very beautiful from a distance."

"Hmph, your aesthetic taste is just so-so!" The cow spirit looked at Lin Hongwen, very dissatisfied.

"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated... If you want to kill him, just kill him. Why are you talking so much nonsense!" Lin Hongwen lowered his head but said harsh words.

He would rather have some dignity than be tied up and humiliated like this.

The cow sneered and said, "Why didn't you think about the consequences when you killed my soldiers?"

Kill...kill her soldiers? Lin Hongwen was stunned for a moment. He kept thinking about his itinerary after arriving in Jinling.

He went to Jiangning and Qinhuai Academy to give lectures and discuss academics, and went to brothels with other immortal sect disciples to recite poems and compose couplets. The rest of the time he was trying every way to please Jiang Ningshuang... Apart from that, he had no other schedule, let alone get rid of the monster?

"It's not me, I didn't, it's not me!" Lin Hongwen denied three times in a row.

“Haha.” The cow demon didn’t believe it and slapped him: “Killing you once wasn’t enough, you come looking for trouble every now and then… and now you don’t dare to admit it, today I will make you pay with blood!”

Say it.

The cow spirit waved her hand and said, "Wash him clean for me, heal the wound on his face, and send him to my room. I will cook him for my brothers after I enjoy him! Although he is not very good-looking, he can still be used. Later, I will let him know what it means to live a life worse than death!"

“You…how could you do this? It wasn’t me! I didn’t kill…” Lin Hongwen was shaking with anger, but before he could finish his words, he was violently knocked unconscious by the cow spirit.

"My king, what about this little girl?" the eagle monster asked with a lecherous look.

The cow spirit said in a cold voice: "This body is good. After I have enjoyed this scholar, I will take over her body! All of you stay away from her. This is the body I like. If anyone dares to touch it, I will chop off his head!"

"Senior Brother Lin!" Seeing Lin Hongwen being carried away, Jiang Ningshuang became a little anxious.

Although she didn't like Lin Hongwen, they were all disciples of the Immortal Sect after all. It was naturally hard for her to bear to see him being killed, but apart from feeling sorry for him, she had no other choice.

The cow demon's cultivation level was at least in the initial stage of the Mysterious Realm, and she suppressed her so much that she had no power to fight back.

Jiang Ningshuang secretly blamed herself for being careless. She shouldn't have come with Lin Hongwen to eliminate the monster just because of a momentary anger... It seemed that she could only find a way to escape first, and then call for someone to rescue Senior Brother Lin.

...

at this time.

At the foot of Cuiping Mountain, a handsome and elegant young man passed by with fifty taels of silver.

The transaction with No. 1 went smoothly this time, and Lu Zhan was in a good mood and prepared to kill a few more monsters to relax. However, to his disappointment, only two bull spirits came out today, a heartbreakingly small number.

"Eh, did I kill them all? That's impossible."

Lu Zhan was very disappointed.

I just found a place for Yuanshen to eat, but today I discovered that even the plates were missing.

This feeling is even worse than the breakup in high school. I just started to rub it, and before I could get in, the monster disappeared.

Besides, the promised demon king has not been found yet.

As expected, life is full of ups and downs...Now I can only use the damn money to comfort myself.

Lu Zhan was filled with worry as he walked. When he reached the woods at the foot of the mountain, suddenly a black gas was blown away by the wind.

"Is this... a demonic aura?"

Lu Zhan was no longer sleepy in an instant. The creature that could leave such traces of demonic energy was definitely not a monster.

The monster had just awakened, and its demonic energy was extremely weak, so it was impossible for it to leave behind such a thick and large black aura.

Lu Zhan observed carefully and found that in addition to the demonic energy, there seemed to be the breath left by cultivators... Following this breath, Lu Zhan indeed saw traces of fighting in front of him.

"Could it be that besides me, there are other people who have set their sights on Cuiping Mountain and lured the Demon King out..."

There is always light at the end of the tunnel... Lu Zhan instantly became alert, swung up his kitchen knife and moved forward along the evil spirit.

Originally he was thinking of doing some fishing enforcement, killing a few every now and then, but now it seems someone is trying to steal his food, so he can only rush over and kill them all at once, hoping to get the monster.
