I'm catching monsters in Liaozhai

He said this verbally, but he had already made up his mind. He would find another opportunity to kill Xu Lang while Su Yun was not paying attention.

Letting Xu Lang live would pose too great a risk.

"Master Zhang, what a scheme! Not only did he get something for nothing, but he also turned a blind eye to kindness!"

At this moment, Xu Lang, who was originally sleeping on the table, suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhang Jia with cold eyes.

"You, didn't you drink the Seven Days Powder? How come you're fine?"

Zhang Jia looked as if he had seen a ghost and subconsciously took a few steps back.

puff~~

Xu Lang slightly exerted his internal energy and a stream of water arrow shot out from his mouth.

"With just this little trick, you dare to attack me? Do you think I'm a fool?"

Xu Lang sneered.

He picked up the wine jug on the table and crushed it.

The wine flowed through his fingers.

He had long seen through that this was a mandarin duck pot and the wine inside could be switched at will.

Not to mention that he didn't drink the so-called Seven Days Powder, even if he really drank it, it would not have any effect on him.

He could completely ignore the effect of the medicine.

"You, what do you want?" Zhang Jia asked nervously.

"Hand over the drinking bug." Xu Lang said.

"impossible!"

Zhang Jia refused straightforwardly, but seeing Xu Lang's cold eyes, he couldn't help but shiver again and said, "Xu Shaoxia, can you change the conditions? Apart from the wine bug, I can give you anything else you want."

"I only want the wine worm. If you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself."

As he spoke, Xu Lang's eyes were already filled with murderous intent.

"Here, here, here... I'll get it for you right away..."

give?

That is impossible to give.

It will never be possible.

Zhang Jia ran back to the room, took out the jade box containing the wine worm from a secret compartment in the wall, picked it up and ran out of the house.

He is going to the county government office.

He knew that Xu Lang was very powerful and even the county government might not be able to stop him, but the county government was his only hope.

However, just as he rushed into the yard, a figure appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

"Master Zhang, are you going in the wrong direction?"

Xu Lang looked at him indifferently.

Zhang Jia quickly stuffed the jade box into his wide robe sleeves.

"Do you really want me to rob it?"

"The drinking bug belongs to our Zhang family!"

Xu Lang was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He grabbed Zhang Jia from the air, took out the jade box from his sleeve, and then threw him aside.

When the jade box was opened, a white and tender wine bug the size of a thumb was found sleeping soundly with its belly up.

When you look closely, you can see a faint trace of saliva at the corner of its mouth.

"Give me back my wine bug!"

Zhang Jia was about to pounce on him, but was stopped by Xu Lang's glare.

"I'm in a good mood now, so get out of here, or you'll die."

"You...you are a robber..."

Zhang Jia's chest kept heaving, and suddenly there was a "puff" sound, and a large amount of blood suddenly seeped out of his neck which was bandaged with gauze, and he couldn't cover it up no matter what.

"Master, Master, what's wrong with you?"

Su Yun rushed out of the house and supported Zhang Jia.

"me......"

Zhang Jia said nothing in the end. Blood kept gushing out. Then his head tilted, and all the wounds on his neck broke open, and he died.

"master!!"

Su Yun held Zhang Jia's drooping head, feeling extremely sad.

Even Xu Lang was surprised by this scene. Zhang Jia, who seemed to be immortal before, had his neck almost chopped off, but he did not die. But now his old injury suddenly relapsed and he died.

It's so weird.

This was the weirdest thing he had ever seen.

"Young Master Xu, I beg you, please, save my master!" Su Yun cried.

"I can't save..."

Don’t say that Xu Lang really can’t be saved.

Even if he could save her, he wouldn't do it again.

What's the point of keeping such a person who repays kindness with enmity? Is it a waste of food and daily necessities?

However, Xu Lang was still very confused and interested in Zhang Jia's previous "immortality" performance.

He asked Su Yun.

But Su Yun said she didn't know what was going on?

Xu Lang found Zhang's housekeeper and several servants, but found nothing.

Considering that Su Yun was a good person, Xu Lang finally did not destroy the Zhang family. He found his little black donkey in the stable and left.

Ever since the news of Xu Lang's transformation into a demon spread, all the major sects in Qianzhong Dao have been searching for Xu Lang's whereabouts everywhere, but in the blink of an eye, a month has passed and they have found nothing.

Everyone thought that Xu Lang had already left Qianzhong Road, so they had to give up the search.

As for them entering other states to look for people, that is simply impossible.

It would be too easy for a cultivator of the fifth realm to hide his whereabouts in the Tang Dynasty.

Searching for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Little did they know that when they gave up the search, Xu Lang rode his black donkey slowly across the road boundary and entered Shannan Road from Qianzhong Road.

In fact, Xu Lang met people from the eight major sects along the way.

Once, disciples from the eight major sects flew over his head.

However, even if they met face to face, it would be impossible for the people from the eight major sects to recognize him.

Xu Lang's fake Qi technique is so advanced that even a strong man in the Pseudo Heaven Realm would find it difficult to recognize Xu Lang's identity if he does not reveal his true Qi.

Not to mention the practitioners below the pseudo-heaven realm.

Half a month after entering Shannan Road, one day, Xu Lang came to a place called Taojiang.

The sun is hot.

There is a tea stall right in front.

The tea stall business is pretty good, with almost all the seats filled with customers.

"Boss, give me a bowl of tea!"

Xu Lang got off the black donkey, found a place to sit down, and waved to the stall owner who was busy working.

"Okay!"

The stall owners were an elderly couple with gray hair. The old man responded and quickly brought a bowl of dark brown tea.

Xu Lang glanced around and said, "Father-in-law, your business is doing well!"

"It's OK, it's just to make some money to make a living."

The old man smiled and said kindly, "Sir, drink slowly. If you need a refill, just call me. We provide free refills of tea here."

"Father-in-law, I have something I want to ask you." Xu Lang called him.

"Sir, please speak."

The old man said with a smile.

"You are a ghost, why are you setting up a stall here to sell tea?"

Xu Lang looked at him with a smile, gently shaking the tea in the bowl.

The old man's face changed slightly, but he soon returned to a smiling, honest look and said, "Guest, are you joking? Where did the ghost come from? Even if there really is a ghost, it wouldn't dare to show up in broad daylight."

"Yeah, I find it strange too. How can you appear in broad daylight without being afraid of the scorching sun?"

"Who are you?"

The old man changed his expression and said gloomily, "Young man, if you don't want tea, please leave and don't meddle in other people's business."

"Hehe, are you threatening me? But I'm really curious, what kind of tea are you selling?" Xu Lang said.

"Young man, I don't care who you are. But you are seeking death by behaving like this."

The old man looked fierce.

At the same time, the old woman also walked over with a bad look on her face.

"Hey, I came here to drink tea, but who told you to give me something messy to drink?"

Xu Lang directly threw the tea in his hand onto the old man's face.

The tea dripped down the hair on his forehead.

The commotion here naturally attracted the attention of other guests. One of them shouted at Xu Lang, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Even if you have any problems, you can't hit people with the bowl. The boss is so old, what if he hurts someone?"

After saying that, he was about to step forward and stop Xu Lang from continuing his crime.

If a fight really breaks out, the elderly couple who own the stall will be no match for the young man Xu Lang.

However, just after he took a few steps, his body shook and then he fell to the ground.

"Brother Biao, what's wrong with you? Ah, my head, why is it so dizzy?"

"Me too......"

"what happened?"

Pfft!

Pfft!

But in the blink of an eye, all those people fell to the ground.

"Boy, you know we are not human, but you don't leave quickly and are still making trouble here. You really want to die, so I won't be polite."

The old man had a ferocious look on his face. As his hands shook, several inches long black nails quickly grew out. Then he pounced towards Xu Lang like a ghost.

boom!

Xu Lang didn't even stand up, but slapped the old man in the face, scaring him to death on the spot.

Chapter 490 A Female Ghost Comes Late at Night

Swish!

The old woman with gray hair and hunched body also took action.

The sharp nails attacked from the side with lightning speed, trying to cut Xu Lang's throat.

Xu Lang snorted coldly.

He raised his hand and grabbed her right arm, twisting it along the way. With a "whoosh", her arm twisted instantly and then exploded into a ball of black mist.

The other hand wanted to attack, but Xu Lang kicked her in the stomach first. The kick sank down with great force and exploded into a ball of black mist.

As the two old ghosts died, the tea shed also disappeared.

Everything is just an illusion they created.

Xu Lang dusted off his body and walked out.

As for the people who fell to the ground, they should not die, so he was too lazy to pay attention to them.

However, what he didn't know was that two people in black cloaks appeared shortly after he left.

"What happened? Did old man Zhang and old lady Li die?" one of them asked.

"It should be a cultivator passing by who killed Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Li."

Another person responded, and then looked at the people who fell to the ground, "These people have drunk the medicine, and their souls are still there."

"Then let's take their souls back first, and report what happened here to Lord Long." said the man who spoke first.

The two men took out a black bottle and muttered something towards the people who fell to the ground. After a while, illusory figures were pulled out from those people's bodies and sucked into the porcelain bottle.

"go!"

After collecting the souls, the two men once again turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared.

Taojiang.

Unfathomable.

Deep underwater.

In a palace.

The two men in black cloaks who were collecting souls were half-kneeling on the ground, reporting the situation to a man in black robe who was shrouded in the aura of death.

"You don't know how to adapt to situations. You should find someone and report back instead of asking me every time something happens. I'll spare your lives this time, but it won't happen again!"

The tall man in a black robe had his hands behind his back and his face could not be seen, but his tone was unusually cold.

"Yes, thank you Lord Long for not killing me."

The two men in black cloaks wiped their sweat off their foreheads.

"Why don't you go and find out for me who killed Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Li?" Lord Long snorted coldly.

"Yes, um, by the way, Lord Long, these are the souls that were just collected!"

One of them respectfully presented the soul he had just collected to Lord Long, and then he and his companions quickly retreated.

the other side,

As the sun set, Xu Lang came to a small town and checked into an inn.

It's quiet at night.

Xu Lang had already laid down.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, wisps of purple smoke were seeping in from the gaps in the windows and doors.

In a short while, it filled the entire room.

A beautiful woman in a purple dress walked in and floated to Xu Lang's bed without touching the ground.

"I thought the person who killed Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Li was some master, but it turned out to be a handsome scholar who didn't even have any cultivation.

It's just a pity that he has to die in such an unclear way."

As she spoke, the beautiful woman reached out to touch Xu Lang's face.

Just when her hand was about to touch Xu Lang, a big hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"I don't like people touching my face with such cold hands. I'm afraid of cold."

Xu Lang looked at her with a smile.

The beautiful woman's face changed, her nails suddenly grew longer, and she was about to grab Xu Lang's neck.

However, Xu Lang exerted a little force and he fell to the ground with a cry of pain.

At the same time, a talisman appeared out of nowhere and hit her.

Xu Lang snapped his fingers, lit the candle, walked to the table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and slowly said:

"I'll give you a chance to live. Tell me the truth. What organization are you from? Where are you from?"

Under Xu Lang's coercion, the beautiful woman confessed the truth.

Her name is Hu Sanniang.

He died from accidentally eating water chestnuts.

His soul was controlled by a monster called Fanjianglong in Taojiang River, and he was driven by it to steal souls.

The old couple at the tea stall, Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Li, are also water ghosts.

The dark brown tea they let passers-by drink was boiled with water hyacinth.

"So, once I drink that tea, you will take my soul away."

Xu Lang asked.

Hu Sanniang nodded.

"Have those people at the tea stall been seduced away by you?"

Xu Lang suddenly thought of a question.

"That's right!"

Hu Sanniang nodded again and said, "After you left, other water ghosts came and took away the souls of those people. Lord Fanjianglong promised that as long as each of us water ghosts can take away 9,990 souls, he will let us go and reincarnate."

I thought that by killing those two old ghosts, those tea drinkers would be able to escape.

But they didn't expect that the two old ghosts had accomplices, and those tea drinkers still couldn't escape death.
