Quick Wear: The host is really just a substitute!

Chapter 197: The Three Obstacles of the Demon Woman’s Cultivation (3)

Song Yuesheng didn't sleep well, so after returning to Liangyi Inn, she drank some wine and fell asleep.

However, just as she closed her eyes, the door was slammed open by a powerful force.

Someone broke in through the door and said in a sharp voice: "Witch, surrender now!"

Song Yuesheng raised his eyes and took a look.

A Taoist priest of ordinary appearance, wearing a green Taoist robe, holding a long sword with the tip of the sword pointing directly at her.

Without hesitation, she took off the bracelet on her wrist, transformed it into an umbrella, and teleported to the western suburbs.

"Master Wuchen, although our shop is not a private residence, we do not allow outsiders to arbitrarily enter an empty room. Otherwise, will my shop still be open? If you don't give me an explanation, come with me to see the prefect!"

The shopkeeper of the Liang Yi Inn spoke in a bad tone.

Yesterday, after Taoist Wu Chen arrived at the inn at midnight, he sat quietly in the lobby until he claimed that there was a monster and got up and went upstairs.

The shopkeeper went to check, but found the room empty.

Taoist Wu Chen is the most powerful Taoist priest in Xuanwu Mountain, but in his opinion, even with great abilities, he cannot break into people's homes without permission.

"That banshee escaped long ago." Wu Chen snorted coldly and put away his sword.

"Hey, you're not allowed to leave." The shopkeeper stopped him when he saw him leaving. "Master, you barged into the guest's room without saying a word. Do you still have the law in your eyes? Someone, invite Master Wuchen to the government office and let Prefect Jun judge the case."

"Extremely ignorant." Wu Chen shook his head, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was furious and shouted at the waiter, "Send it to the prefectural government immediately!"

Seeing that the shopkeeper was really angry, the waiters hurried forward to subdue Taoist Wu Chen, and the group of people walked towards the yamen in a menacing manner.

"It's so satisfying that we finally caught this evildoer!"

"That's right. Xiao Douzi was only three years old when he was stabbed by the evil Taoist priest. Fortunately, Doctor Xia was very skilled in medicine and brought him back from the brink of death."

"There was also Sister Ming who sold tofu. She was just selling tofu, but he came up and beat her up. Sister Ming is still lying in Miaoshou Hall now."

"More than that. Mr. Fei has been a night watchman for most of his life. He is a good person, but this demon came and said he was a demon. He slapped him with one palm, and Mr. Fei hasn't woken up yet."

……

On the way to the government office, the people of Qianzhou applauded the capture of Wu Chen.

Wu Chen looked at everything in front of him coldly.

The people in this city have been bewitched by the monster and have come to this place.

He really should have come here immediately after receiving Miss Song's letter, instead of following his master's orders to go somewhere else to exorcise the demon, and only arrived in Qianzhou five days ago.

Inside the yamen, Prefect Jun sat on a high platform with a calm demeanor that made people dare not treat him with the slightest disrespect.

When he heard the report from his subordinates, he frowned slightly, as if he was surprised to hear that the owner of the Liangyi Inn and Taoist Wuchen were standing outside the yamen.

Prefect Jun turned around and waved to a shrewd and capable yamen runner beside him: "Go to the mansion and find the young master. Just say...just say that the Taoist priest from Xuanwu Mountain has come to Qianzhou, and be sure to bring him here."

"Yes, my lord."

The bailiff ran all the way to the emperor's residence.

The servant in the mansion knew Jun Yu's personality well and knew that he didn't like others to step into Moxiangzhai, so the servant led the yamen runners to find the magistrate's wife, and then she asked him to send someone to invite him.

The bailiff waited in the living room for two quarters of an hour and finally saw Jun Yu.

He clasped his fists and said, "Master, the master said that the Taoist priest from Xuanwu Mountain has come to the government office. I hope you can go and have a chat."

However, when the bailiff met Jun Yu's eyes, he felt as if he was being stared at by something, and felt frightened.

He quickly looked away and asked for his leave to the prefect's wife.

Along the way, the yamen runner didn't dare to look around, for fear of seeing those frightening eyes again.

When they arrived at the government office gate, the bailiff saw an unexpected person.

But the other party spoke before him and was also looking at Jun Yu.

"Master Jun, have you also heard that Taoist Wuchen was arrested and taken to the government office for no reason?"

Song Zhiyan was worrying about how to get Wu Chen out after entering, but unexpectedly she ran into Jun Yu.

Under her wide sleeves, she clenched her palms tightly, trying hard to make her facial expression look normal.

She should have directly said yesterday evening that Song Yuesheng was a three-hundred-year-old bamboo demon.

Because of her momentary soft-heartedness, Song Yuesheng became even more unscrupulous. He even spent the entire night with Jun Yu yesterday, and even at the Mao hour today...

Just because she can't see or hear anything doesn't mean she doesn't know.

Jun Yu didn't look at her and went straight into the yamen.

When Prefect Jun saw his son, he immediately dismissed everyone.

Only his son, Taoist Wu Chen and Song Zhiyan were left in the lobby.

Prefect Jun kept Song Zhiyan because she claimed that it was she who wrote the letter asking Taoist Wu Chen to come to Qianzhou to catch monsters.

Since she was an insider, Magistrate Jun naturally wanted to keep her.

Taoist Wu Chen looked at Jun Yu in front of him, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face, as if he did not expect to meet an old fellow disciple here.

But in a flash, his expression turned a little unhappy: "Junior Brother Jun, since your family is in Qianzhou, where monsters are rampant, why don't you get rid of them? Have you forgotten everything Master taught you?"

Prefect Jun spoke first, smiling, "Master Wuchen, there are evil monsters and good monsters. If you kill a kind monster today, you will probably be avenged by the companions of the good monster in the future. If this keeps happening, Qianzhou will become restless."

"A monster is a monster and deserves to be killed. No need to distinguish between good and evil!" Wu Chen retorted disapprovingly.

Prefect Jun shook his head slightly, a look of reminiscence on his face, and slowly said: "Master, what you said is wrong. When I was young, I was robbed by bandits. At the critical moment of life and death, I was fortunately saved by a kind demon. Although the demon was an alien, he had good intentions and sacrificed himself to save me from danger.

From then on, I knew that there are monsters in the world, but monsters are not all evil, they also have a kind side. Therefore, when I became the prefect of this state, I decided to change the previous prefect's harsh policy towards monsters. As long as they have good intentions, I will not pursue them. "

Prefect Jun sighed, "Twenty years have passed... Now this Qianzhou has become the most prosperous prefecture besides Kyoto. So it seems that my original decision was indeed correct."

Prefect Jun paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to Jun Yu who was standing quietly beside him, his eyes full of relief.

"I agreed to let Xiaoyu learn magic from the Taoist priest because, on the one hand, I wanted him to learn some skills and avoid being killed by monsters. On the other hand, I also wanted him to protect the people of Qianzhou for me."

"Master, we are both practitioners, but Xiaoyu knows better than you that some monsters should be killed, and some kind monsters should not be killed."

Prefect Jun's voice was filled with pride for Jun Yu.

Jun Yu remained silent.

It’s not that he didn’t want to kill the monster in Qianzhou, but that he had practiced for a short time and could only use magic to detect whether the other party had monster aura.

Unlike my senior brother, I can see the evil aura on him with the naked eye.

After hearing these words, Wu Chen's face showed a thoughtful look.

Did he do something wrong?

"Although what the prefect said makes sense, monsters are not of our species after all, and their minds are hard to predict. If we indulge them blindly, I'm afraid it will lead to disaster in the future."

Song Zhiyan's voice brought Wu Chen back to his senses. He looked at her and saw her slowly bowing to Prefect Jun.

The voice was filled with disgust towards the monster.

"A demon knows magic. What if he disguises himself as someone familiar to you and me to deceive us? Or what if some female demons use magic to confuse the men of Qianzhou, suck their essence, and kill them?"

After hearing this, Prefect Jun still had a warm smile on his face: "Miss Song is right. That's why Qianzhou invites Taoist priests from all over to travel here and catch these evil monsters that kill the people."

Song Zhiyan's lips curved, "In that case, please ask the prefect to summon all the demon catchers in Qianzhou to capture the demon girl Song Yuesheng. She is a bamboo spirit who has been practicing for three hundred years and uses magic to harm people."

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Zhiyan felt a sharp airflow, and then her neck was tightly pinched by a cold and powerful hand.

The feeling of suffocation came over her instantly, and she struggled to breathe, but that hand was like an iron clamp, firmly locking her lifeline.

Jun Yu's eyes flashed with an icy cold light. He stared at Song Zhiyan and said in a low voice full of murderous intent: "People who spread rumors don't deserve to live."

"Junior brother, wait a minute!"

Wu Chen's voice sounded at this time. He acted quickly and cast a spell, dissolving Jun Yu's attack into nothingness and trapping him in a formation.

He turned to Jun Yu, his tone was somewhat reproachful: "The sect has rules. We must never attack mortals. Otherwise, we will destroy our foundation. Be careful not to go astray."

Song Zhiyan covered her neck and coughed a few times, then grinned and said, "I knew that you, Master Jun, were also bewitched by Song Yuesheng's magic. Lord Prefect, please let Wuchen go and let him go catch the monster."

Prefect Jun knew that his son was a person who didn't care much about others, but it was clear from his current appearance that he was in love with the girl named Song Yuesheng.

And there are autumn butterflies.

She had always disliked Miss Song, who actually recognized a person with the same appearance as her master and raised a cat for Song Yuesheng that had been in existence for four months.

If it was a monster, then everything would make sense.

Prefect Jun thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "Let's do it this way."

Song Zhiyan thanked Prefect Jun, then turned to look at Jun Yu who was trapped in the formation: "If Master Jun firmly believes that I am talking nonsense, then please come with us. Taoist Wuchen has great magical powers, and he will know whether he is a demon at a glance."

She was worried that Jun Yu would inform the others, so when Wu Chen untied the formation, she asked him to add another spell to prevent Jun Yu from leaving.
