Chapter 107 The Savior, Officer Firebird.
Three months later, the city within the city, Niaoguan City, was completed.
The city walls are tall and the roads are clean. Compared with the ordinary streets full of sewage and stench, this place is extremely clean.
There are about a thousand "people" in the city, with strange looks and gorgeous clothes.
Some have wings on their backs and yellow dog heads. Some are tall and have bird beaks. Some look exactly like normal people, except their hair is feathers.
ding ding ding...
From time to time, one-horned rhinos pulling huge carriages pass by the streets.
There are restaurants and hotels everywhere.
Inside the restaurant, the monsters drank wine and ate meat like ordinary people. Most of the food on the plates were human body parts, or other delicacies from land and sea.
In the center of the restaurant, a mortal dancer was performing an erotic dance.
Some people were walking on the streets, some were fighting cocks and walking their dogs.
Life is so free and easy.
"The master of the demon city is the master. Apart from eating and drinking, there is nothing else."
The demon tribe alone cannot support a prosperous city.
Therefore, even under the rule of the demon race, the participation of the human race is indispensable.
Building a demon city within a human city is a common practice in this world.
The demons do not work nor participate in production; they just enjoy the fruits.
Therefore, the dirty, barbaric, and smelly places where demons live as most people imagine do not exist.
They have human intelligence, long lifespans, and can suck blood from those around them, so their living standards are naturally not too bad.
All of this is built on the blood and tears of human beings.
In the county government office, all the staff here were replaced by the troops brought by Gui Xiang.
Gui Xiang was not wearing his official uniform. He was leaning lazily on the back of a chair, his loose robe covering his plump body.
"Why hasn't Xu Yang come to see me yet? Does he not respect me as the county magistrate?"
Below is General Blackfish.
General Blackfish said respectfully, "This person has never known the ways of the world, and perhaps he doesn't know the reason."
"Well, take my order and go to Jiuyou Temple to summon this person."
"As ordered!"
General Black Fish drove quickly along the way, accompanied by a dozen bird followers.
Jiuyou Temple.
Wow! !
On this day, the yin energy was thick and turned into a cool green mist, which then formed a whirlpool.
And was absorbed by the mysterious thing below.
This day.
The three of them broke through at the same time.
Ruyi, Banyan God, Xuyang.
The two women broke through the barriers of a hundred years at the same time. Xu Yang broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, but Qingping was still in seclusion.
Where the spiritual field is located.
Coffins were arranged around, and Xu Yang was sitting cross-legged in the center of the altar.
He opened his eyes and let out a breath.
"Another small breakthrough."
The speed of cultivation is considered to be relatively fast.
During these few months, he also added the explosive Netherworld Fire Technique to the Corpse King Kong.
Under the same realm, it is actually very difficult for zombies to defeat monks in a one-on-one fight. Of course, because zombies are fearless, it is not easy to defeat zombies. If you are not careful, both will perish.
Before, because I was concerned about the cost, I wanted to use zombies like Corpse Vajra and Yaksha for a longer time. Now that the Taoist temple has a good foundation, Corpse Vajra can be scrapped at will.
Xu Yang stood up and walked to a large coffin.
When the lid of the coffin was opened, a red-skinned, three-headed Yaksha was lying inside.
This is the corpse yaksha.
Different from the blue-skinned sea-patrolling Yaksha, this is a land Yaksha with great power and great speed.
This is the latest zombie system developed.
"There are currently fifteen three-headed corpse vajra, fifteen sea patrolling yakshas, fifteen three-headed corpse yakshas, and fifteen prison gate zombies in the temple."
Including the Red-faced Yaksha and the Golden-eyed Eagle, there are a total of thirty-three foundation-building zombies.
The rest are all instant zombies.
The ones refined by his disciples and those he always keeps in stock, add up to a total of one thousand, enough to blow up this city.
This is the power accumulated by the Taoist temple during this period of time.
"Qingping...Ruyi!" Xu Yang almost forgot that Qingping was still in seclusion.
After a while, a woman flew over.
"Report the situation outside."
"Yes."
Ruyi briefly talked about what had happened recently. Because the Niaoguan City was under construction and the demon tribe had just moved in, there had not been any large-scale unrest.
But recent events have made ordinary people angry but dare not speak out.
"Master, should we take action?"
"Almost." Xu Yang smiled coldly.
It finally appeared.
Just as he had expected, the demon race was not the barbaric force described in the vernacular novels. Instead, it was a parasitic civilization with a very high degree of organization. Thousands or even tens of thousands of years of inheritance had taught them how to exploit humans.
This is humanity's greatest enemy.
It is also the most critical territory of a powerful and unified Taoist sect - a powerful enemy.
If a Taoist temple expands blindly, the people who are passively absorbed into it may feel unwilling or resentful.
But if the Taoist temple acts as a savior, rescuing them from the quagmire of demon invasion, it would be a different scene.
The same is true when facing mortals. Defeating demons in front of them will gain more faith than giving out some small profits.
Of course, his purpose is not to save the people, but to expand his own power. He is not a good man, and when he sees mortals being bullied, he will not rush up to uphold justice, which would seem a bit stupid.
From a human perspective, upholding justice in a precautionary manner will only make people dependent on it. If it is not enforced in a timely manner in the future, it will instead be met with resentment and curse from the world.
The most perfect state can only be achieved when they feel the pain personally and truly need Jiuyou Temple.
This is true for both ordinary people and monks.
After learning the information about Niaoguan City, Xu Yang finally understood why the conflict between the human race and the demon race was irreconcilable.
The essence is the collision of two different civilizations.
Ordinary demons have no culture and no heritage, so they are more likely to integrate into the human race.
This kind of monster should either be killed or taken to the morgue of Jiuyou Temple as a brother.
"Come to think of it, there aren't many humanoid monsters in the morgue."
"Ruyi, tell Rongshen and Changtong that it's time to intervene in any way you like."
"Yes!"
Ruyi retreated.
After a while, he came up again.
"Captain Blackfish requests a meeting!"
Captain Blackfish comes in.
Xu Yang looked at this guy who was once on equal footing with him, and felt deeply moved.
"Master, the county magistrate has summoned you."
"No, I won't go."
How could I possibly go to that kind of place? Even if I went, it wouldn't be the kind of place where I would be summoned.
"okay."
Captain Blackfish left very decisively, and the two men's conversation lasted no more than three breaths.
County government.
After hearing Captain Blackfish's reply, Gui Xiang secretly took note of it.
When my brother integrates the power of the Yinshan demon clan, the power on the southern slope will undergo a major reshuffle. Since Xu Yang doesn't appreciate it, I will not give him a chance to live.
In Gui Xiang's eyes, Xu Yang was undoubtedly a dead man.
This person knows how to advance and retreat, and doesn't dare to challenge me.
Next, they will gradually erode the townships and counties below.
"From now on, the Nine Netherworld Temple will be taken over by the demons in the Nine Netherworld Temple." Rongshen, Baizhu, and Ruyi. The three demon women are gifted and can be considered qualified subordinates for Gui Xiang.
Bird official city.
"Come on! Drink!"
"Three cups of wine as punishment, hurry up!"
The sun was high in the sky, and four people were drinking happily in the Niaoguan Restaurant.
The leading armored captain had a head of golden hair and long, narrow teeth. Except for his bird-like feet, his other parts were no different from those of a normal human.
The other four all have bird heads.
The status of the monsters in Niaoguan City can be seen from their appearance. Generally speaking, the more they look like humans, the higher their status.
The bird head is usually a minion, the bird feet are the team leader, and only sporadic demons and monsters are captains, generals and the like.
After several months of relocation, the arrival of minions and their families brought the total population of Niaoguan City to over three thousand.
"Dog team leader, how about we have some fun?" said a young man with fiery hair and a bird's beak.
"Akahara, tell me what fun there is?" The dog team leader also became interested.
"The one we used to play all the time."
The dog team's eyes lit up and said, "Okay."
The four demons packed up and went out.
There is no human habitation within a hundred meters of the Niaoguan city wall.
Arrived at the human downtown area.
"coming!!"
The people scattered in a rush.
A man dressed as a scholar fell to the ground, and fruits and vegetables fell all over the floor.
The four demons surrounded it.
"Sir, please spare my life!" The scholar begged in panic.
Little did he know that it would arouse the interest of the demon.
Suddenly, a demon drew his sword and stabbed the scholar in the back.
"You are not allowed to talk to the demon tribe with your back turned, don't you know?"
"Ah..." The scholar felt pain and turned around while enduring the severe pain.
As a result, he turned his back to another monster.
The other demon also stabbed him.
The scholar kept turning and was stabbed.
The demons were delighted.
This game is called Spinning Top, and whoever the top falls on last gets to treat everyone.
The people watched this scene from afar, angry but not able to speak out, and somewhat afraid.
Under a table in a stall, a boy bit his palm tightly, with deep hatred in his eyes.
boom! !
The scholar's body fell to the ground.
"Haha, the dog team is here, you treat us today!!"
Everyone burst into laughter and returned to Niaoguan City arm in arm, leaving the scholar's body lying alone on the ground.
The boy crawled out at this time, and carried his brother's body with difficulty. His face was wooden, and he walked back home step by step, with blood dripping from his palms.
The people around him couldn't bear to step forward to help, but were ruthlessly rejected by the boy.
"Who did it?"
Da da da……
At this time, the sound of horse hooves came.
A group of Taoist priests came on horseback.
A Taoist priest was sitting on a horse. He had red pupils and a single horn on his forehead. He was Chang Tong, the inspector general of Yaksha Manor.
"Master, it was the demons who did it." said the old man next to him.
"Do you still remember what the monsters look like?" Chang Tong asked.
A glimmer of hope lit up the boy's eyes, and he said in a hoarse voice, "I will remember even if I turn into ashes."
"Are you afraid? If not, come with me to identify the person." Chang Tong's eyes were grim. How could he, the inspector general, put his face down when someone killed someone near Jiuyou Temple?
Now that the master has spoken, it's time to teach them a lesson.
"Of course I'm not afraid."
The boy was carried onto the horse and the group galloped away.
On the way, he met up with Rongshen, Ruyi and others.
A group of people sneaked into Niaoguan City.
In the evening, Akahara from the Firebird tribe returned home drunk.
"Father!!"
A man and a woman, two bird-headed boys rushed over and hugged their thighs, and the woman smiled gently beside them.
A smile appeared on Akara's cold face, and suddenly a bag appeared.
"Look, preserves!"
"I want!!"
"I also want!"
"We have everything, don't fight over it."
Looking at his children eating snacks, Akahara had a happy smile on his face, thinking that no matter how far he went, home was where his family was.
The demon tribe has its own warmth.
The birth rate of demons is much lower than that of mortals, so they are quite doting on their children.
Whoosh! !
Two cold arrows accurately hit the eyebrows of a pair of children.
"Shuang'er! Jia'er!" Chi Yuan's eyes were bloodshot and his hair was standing on end with anger.
I saw a figure coming in from outside the door.
"Your human ancestors are here to settle accounts with you."
puff! !
The steel fork pierced Akara and his wife's bodies.
Next, the four people just now and those who had criminal records before surrendered one by one.
boom! !
Thirty zombies blew open the city gate!
Flames engulfed the city gate, flames shot up into the sky, and there was chaos in the surrounding area.
The Taoist priest, who had revealed his true form, rode his horse out of the city in a swagger.
"The Taoist temple kills demons, and anyone who stands in the way will die!!!"
The corpses of the demons were tied to horses and dragged around the city for display.
The common people all saw this scene and were left with a strong impression of the Taoist temple.
The once high and mighty demon clan was now like rags, with the entire family, young and old, men, women, and children, all dragged around in the streets.
"Mighty! Wise!"
"The world is bright and clear, demons are slain!"
The people cheered and loved him.
Chang Tong reunited with everyone.
"Have you caught them all?" asked the Banyan God.
"A guy named Quan Dui Zheng ran very fast, so I had to kill his entire family." Chang Tong pointed at the old man and child tied to the horse.
"Forget it, let's go back first..."
"No." Xu Yang walked out of the black fog, "Turn back and attack Niaoguan City to call for justice."
Just then one of them ran away, and we used this as an excuse to bring an army to bear on him.
"Walk!!"
Boo!
Xu Yang flew to Niaoguan City on a golden eagle.
At this time, the monsters in Niaoguan City finally reacted.
The two sides confronted each other outside the city.
