Chapter 137 The Cold Taoist Priest is Really Charming 04

"About six days ago, the Lord of Qingcheng City sent people to the Taoist temple, saying that a monster had appeared in Qingcheng. The monster had a high level of cultivation and would come out to hurt people every few days. The Lord of Qingcheng City led people to capture the monster, but because the monster was so powerful, not only did they fail to capture it, but they also injured several people."

Zhu Jinnian explained the reason for his descent from the mountain: "The Lord of Qingcheng knew he couldn't handle this demon, so he sent someone to ask my master to come down the mountain. My master saw that I grew up in a Taoist temple, and although I'd gone down the mountain with him before, I didn't have much experience capturing demons, so this time he sent me down the mountain specifically to train me."

"Master said that if I can't deal with the monster, I should inform him immediately and he will rush to Qingcheng as soon as possible."

Bai Ye learned from 365 that Zhu Jinnian's master had also been practicing the art of catching monsters. He had been practicing for many years and had reached a very high level of skill.

But now the other party is old and needs Zhu Jinnian to inherit his mantle, so he will try his best to give Zhu Jinnian the opportunity to gain experience.

"Do you know what kind of monster it is?"

Zhu Jinnian: "After the Qingcheng City Lord examined the deceased, he found what looked like wolf bite marks on the neck. He tentatively speculated that the victim was a wolf demon."

Bai Ye nodded. The mayor of Qingcheng guessed correctly. It was indeed a wolf demon.

Bai Ye has a cheat that allows him to easily find out a lot of things, but he can't remind people too obviously.

Firstly, he revealed too much, and Zhu Jinnian would definitely ask him how he knew all these things. He couldn't tell the truth, so he could only lie, and one lie often required countless lies to cover it up.

Second, he revealed too much about the plot, which is like revealing a secret of heaven. The world needs his help to set things right, but that doesn't mean the world can let him do whatever he wants.

Just like in this world, he has advanced magic, but he cannot harm humans or good monsters, otherwise the world will think he is not a good person.

In the worst case, they will be expelled from the world.

He still wants to spend the rest of this world with his baby and doesn't want to be excluded.

Bai Ye's thoughts raced, but it only took a few seconds. "That demon usually moves at night, right?"

Zhu Jinnian: "Yes, it's too obvious during the day. The demon wouldn't be stupid enough to hurt people in broad daylight. It will only look for lone humans in the dead of night."

Bai Ye looked at the sky. It was starting to get dark. In less than an hour, it would be completely dark.

Bai Ye suggested, "In that case, how about we find a place to stay and eat something first, and then take action after nightfall?"

Zhu Jinnian thought what Bai Ye said made sense, so he agreed.

Before the two of them took any steps forward, they encountered soldiers guarding the city who were checking them. Because there were monsters in the city, the soldiers guarding the city were checking the people entering and leaving the city more strictly.

The two men had superior looks, dressed in white, and had an immortal look. The officers and soldiers had a hunch that they were important, especially after seeing the demon-slaying sword on Zhu Jinnian. They began to make some considerations, let them go after a simple inspection, and sent someone to report to the city lord.

The two entered the city. There were all kinds of shops and stalls on both sides of the street. The dazzling array of goods was dizzying. The people seemed to be living and working in peace and contentment.

Qingcheng is quite far away from the present imperial city. Its present appearance is inseparable from its superior geographical location and the efforts of the present city lord.

Being close to the sea, fresh food has become one of the channels for development. In addition, many other industries have also been developed.

The current Lord of Qingcheng has been in office for three years. He has managed Qingcheng in an orderly manner, vigorously developed agriculture and commerce, and made the city prosperous.

However, just when everything was going in the right direction, a monster appeared in the city, causing panic among the people.

Although the people seem to be living and working in peace and contentment now, there are hidden dangers of monsters behind the scenes, and everyone is extremely scared.

Because there have been monsters hurting people recently, the government has issued a clear ban on setting up stalls after dark. As a result, many people have already packed up their stalls and are preparing to go home, as they don't want to encounter monsters when they are alone after dark.

Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian were both very eye-catching. They were both dressed in white and looked like fairies. Many girls blushed when they saw them. They didn't expect to see such handsome men at nearly nightfall.

Some people were wary because they didn't look like ordinary people based on their appearance and dress.

Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian searched for the inn under everyone's gaze.

There are many inns in the city, and Zhu Jinnian thinks it doesn't matter where he stays, as long as he has a place to stay.

Bai Ye was not so casual. He wanted to make himself and Zhu Jinnian live comfortably.

Considering that both of them were tired from walking today, Bai Ye saw a nice inn and wanted to pull Zhu Jinnian in.

Zhu Jinnian was unwilling to do so, not for any other reason, but because the inn looked very high-end and he did not have much money on him. If he stayed here, he would not even have money to eat in the future.

Bai Ye saw Zhu Jinnian's worry and said bluntly, "How can I ask you to pay me if you stay with me? You just need to live comfortably with me."

Zhu Jinnian knew the saying "A man who has received favors from others will be grateful to him and will be obliged to repay him if he receives them". He had already received too many favors from Bai Ye, and if he continued to owe him favors, he would never be able to repay them.

Zhu Jinnian suggested: "You live in this house, and I'll live in the one next door, is that okay?"

Bai Ye followed Zhu Jinnian's finger and saw a small inn tucked away in a corner...

"I firmly refuse. Please come in with me."

In the end, Zhu Jinnian followed Bai Ye in obediently.

It was not for any other reason, but Bai Ye's obvious "threat" that if Zhu Jinnian didn't go with him, he would press Zhu Jinnian's acupoints and carry him in.

Between owing someone a favor and being embarrassed by it, Zhu Jinnian chose the former.

After spending a few days together, Zhu Jinnian believed Bai Ye's words and believed that he could do it, so he had no choice but to follow Bai Ye into the inn obediently.

The price of the inn was just as Zhu Jinnian had expected, not cheap for one night. Bai Ye directly booked a room in the upper room for half a month without giving Zhu Jinnian any chance to speak.

Bai Ye was handsome and generous, so the innkeeper happily asked the waiter to take the two of them to their room and told them to just tell the waiter whatever they needed.

Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian took a look at the room first, and after confirming that the location was suitable, they went downstairs to eat.

It was almost dark and there were not many guests in the inn. The dishes ordered by Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian were quickly served.

After eating roasted chicken, roasted fish and other food outside for several days, Zhu Jinnian finally had a good meal today and enjoyed it very much.

Although he was learning martial arts in a Taoist temple, he did not have too many taboos. Apart from his skills, he was no different from ordinary people.

The two of them had attracted a lot of people's attention since they appeared in the inn. Now that they were eating, the guests and waiters in the inn were looking at them.

I was amazed and curious. I was curious that two such godlike figures suddenly appeared in Qingcheng.
