In ancient times, he became a god in the mountains.

Zhang Gousheng and several children finally appeared on a barren hill outside Yunwu Town. They were heading towards Taohua Village, but lost their trace halfway. Several village women were walking with them, but none of them noticed that the children were missing.

It is impossible for an ordinary person to steal several children silently, let alone seven or eight-year-old children who are aware of human affairs.

"Evil spirit!"

As soon as Fire Boy and Water Boy arrived at the barren mountain, they realized something was wrong. The two boys looked at each other, and they both smelled a faint evil aura.

However, the evil aura was too weak, so it was certain that the monster's lair was not nearby. The two followed the evil aura and arrived at Mr. Luo's mansion.

There were indeed a lot of purple-red evil spirits above Mr. Luo’s house, and there were also a few faint golden lights of merit.

"Not only is there a monster, but one of them has been practicing for seven hundred years. We can't deal with it. Shuiwa, you go find the empress for advice. I'll stay here." Huowa and Shuiwa couldn't deal with the monsters inside.

Shuiwa nodded: "I'll go right away."

"Seven hundred years?"

Judging from the meager spiritual energy in this world, this monster is considered a great monster with good cultivation in the secular world.

Gu Yuexi heard the conversation between the two through the water mirror.

She thought about coping strategies.

[The host can give them two magic weapons to exorcise demons] The system reminded.

She opened the system resource library.

A magic weapon that can deal with a monster that has cultivated for seven hundred years requires more than a thousand faith points.

[Magic weapons are different from talismans and spiritual water. After the host buys the magic weapon, he can use it himself and it belongs to the host indefinitely.]

This is not her private property.

After a quick look, her faith power has now grown to 1,500.

The demon-binding rope requires one thousand and five faith points.

The Demon-Suppressing Tower has one thousand two hundred faith powers.

The Demon-Subduing Pearl has one thousand and eight faith powers.

From the basic to the highest, artifacts are divided into Dharma, Spirit, Tao, and Treasure, namely Dharma instruments, spiritual instruments, Taoist instruments, and spiritual treasures. The first three are further divided into top grade and upper, middle, and lower grades, and spiritual treasures are divided into innate and acquired.

She was looking at the most basic magical tools.

However, low-grade magic weapons can only be used against small monsters that are less than five hundred years old. To deal with monsters that are more than five hundred years old, medium-grade magic weapons must be used.

The middle-grade magic weapons include the Demon-Binding Rope, the Demon-Suppressing Tower and the Demon-Subduing Bead. These magic weapons can be refined by oneself to upgrade their grades later.

"Just use the demon-binding rope."

"Give me a few more first-level demon-subduing talismans with twenty faith points."

After she exchanged it, she got a demon-binding rope one finger wide and three first-level demon-subduing talismans.

The demon-binding rope was placed in an extremely exquisite wooden box with mysterious runes engraved on it.

She engraved a soul seal on the demon-binding rope, so that even if the rope fell into the hands of others, she could recall it at any time.

After getting the demon-subduing talisman, she raised her jade fingers lightly and injected spiritual power into the talisman. The fire spiritual power in her body was now extremely strong.

The moment spiritual power was injected into the talismans, the three talismans were upgraded to a higher grade and became second-grade talismans. Not to mention monsters that were seven hundred years old, even those that were eight or nine hundred years old could be subdued.

"My lady, Shuiwa wants to see you."

Shui Wa half-knelt and replied, "Your Highness, the disciples have found the scents of the missing children and can confirm that they are all in Mr. Luo's residence. However, there is a demonic aura in Mr. Luo's residence, and there is a seven-hundred-year-old demon that the disciples cannot deal with. Please give me some advice, Your Highness."

"This is a demon-binding rope and three demon-subduing talismans. They have great spiritual power. Please use them with caution."

"This magic weapon and talisman are more than enough to subdue a seven hundred year old monster."

"Yes, I will go back and subdue the demon with Huo Wa."

The water baby turned into a drop of water and disappeared in a flash.

At Mr. Luo's mansion, Huowa finally waited for Shuiwa.

"The Queen gave us the demon-binding rope and demon-subduing talismans."

Fire Boy picked up the demon-binding rope, and Water Boy held a demon-subduing talisman in each hand, with another one floating above his head. Combined with their original third-level Qi training skills, they had a good chance of defeating a seven-hundred-year-old demon.

"Knock, knock." Huowa went forward and knocked on the door.

The one who opened the door was Luo Zhong, the Luo family’s butler. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Are you here to exchange for food…”

"Eh?"

Luo Zhong asked in surprise.

"You..." There were two chubby white kids outside the door, a boy and a girl. Although they were wearing coarse linen clothes, their round little faces and fair, translucent skin showed that they were not children from ordinary families.

After three years of drought, are there still children like this?

Luo Zhong was confused and just closed the door.

It’s a monster, it must be a monster!

"Bang!" Huowa held the vermilion door with one hand. Although he was just a child, he was strong enough to stop Luo Zhong from closing the door.

Luo Zhong became more certain of his thoughts.

Oh my god, I encountered a monster.

"You can go to someone else's house. Ours is full of old, weak, and sick people. We can't host you two."

He spoke politely, but his tone was obviously stiff and flustered.

"Uncle, are there many missing children in this town recently? Can we get some information from you?"

Huowa stared at Luo Zhong with passionate eyes.

"I don't know about this, you can ask someone else!" Luo Zhong closed the door nervously.

Unfortunately, Huo Wa had one hand on the door, and his old body couldn't push it at all.

"Old man, we are the servants of the Golden Saint Goddess, the mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range. The Goddess specially asked us to come here to find the lost child. There is a demonic aura in your house, and there is the scent of a lost child. Please allow us to go in and take a look. This is also for the peace of your house." Shuiwa stepped forward to persuade.

"What Jinsheng Niangniang? The Jinsheng Mountains are a monster mountain range known to everyone in Daxia. I think you are just little monsters sent by the big monster to eat children. My master is kind and generous, why don't you go find the most vicious people, but come to the Luo family?"

Luo Zhong couldn't push the door open and was so angry that he swore.

"Certainly!"

Seeing that persuasion failed, Shuiwa pointed at him.

Luo Zhong felt a chill all over his body and he could not move. He looked at the two children in horror as they swaggered into the Luo family's home.

He yelled, "Master, Madam, the monster is coming in, hide quickly!"

Fire Boy and Water Boy took a look at the layout of the house and determined where the monster was based on the demonic energy.

"Back Mountain."

The Luo family mansion was a reward from the late emperor. It is said that Mr. Luo's biological mother, the old lady of the Luo family, was the late emperor's wet nurse for three years. When she returned to Yunwu Town, the late emperor had this large mansion built for her, which was surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Now the grass and trees in the house have withered and the mountains and rivers have dried up.

Fortunately, Luo Zhong was diligent and kept the surroundings clean.

"Whose children are you?"

Hearing Luo Zhong's shout, the thin Mr. Luo came out with trembling feet. He was weak and looked sick, and his clothes were shiny because they hadn't been washed for three years.

He had the same reaction as Butler Luo when he saw the Fire Baby and the Water Baby.

After three years of severe drought and starving people everywhere, how could there be such a blessed little kid!

Inhuman!

Mr. Luo felt a tightness in his heart.

Huowa said, "We are the servants of the Golden Saint Goddess, the mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range. I am Huowa and she is Shuiwa. Several children from Taohua Village disappeared near Yunwu Town, and the Goddess asked us to find them. We discovered evil spirits on the way here, and we followed them all the way to your doorstep. We saw a strong evil spirit above your house, so there must be an evil spirit haunting your house."

The mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range? The Golden Saint Goddess? The boy under her? A monster?

What is this all about?

He has lived for more than forty years and has never seen a monster?

And isn’t the Jinsheng Mountain Range a well-known monster mountain?

Where did the mountain spirit come from?

"We are here to catch monsters!" Shuiwa explained his purpose.

Mr. Luo coughed a few times, almost coughing out his heart and lungs: "There are no monsters in my house?"

“Cough, cough, cough! Cough, cough! Cough… huhu…”

Suddenly a gust of wind blew over with sand and dust, and Mr. Luo started coughing violently. After coughing, he gasped for breath and a painful expression appeared on his face.

"You are sick, actually it's the monster that has sucked your energy. If I'm not mistaken, everyone in your family is like this." Shuiwa said, pointing at his pale face.

Mr. Luo couldn't believe it: "How is it possible? I have been kind and generous all my life, how could I be harmed by a monster?"

Huowa hummed: "So we are here to help you."

"The demonic aura is most intense in the mountain behind your house. The demon must be hiding there." Huowa looked towards the mountain behind.

Shuiwa nodded: "Please don't stop it, otherwise once the monster has sucked the energy of everyone in your family, it will go out and harm others."

Mr. Luo frowned: "Is there really a monster in my house?"

Shuiwa reminded him, "Have strange things happened frequently in your family recently?"

Mr. Luo's face changed drastically when he thought about the bad things that had happened at home in the past year.
