Chapter 280: Layout and Breakthrough
Time went by day by day, and there was still no trace of the demon cultivator.
Nan Fubo and his companions were getting anxious, but Bai Yu was getting more and more relaxed.
Master Yin and Zen Master Fa'an were even more uneasy.
If it was a demon cultivator this time, it would be fine. If it involved a monster, it must be strangled in the cradle.
Otherwise, the more the monster grows, the more harm it will bring.
But they didn't dare to say anything to Bai Yu.
They had to hint at Nan Fubo.
Master Yin said:
"Fellow Daoist Nan, it's already August 29th. In another day, the demon cultivator will take action again."
"Do you think you should discuss this with fellow Daoist Bai?"
Nan Fubo became more and more unhappy.
"Uncle Junior Master really doesn't know the importance of things! He has to go to the brothel at this time, which is simply a disgrace to the Leiyang Sect."
But he said:
"Uncle Junior Master has his own ideas."
"You act according to the plan, I will go and talk to Uncle Junior Master."
That day, Bai Yu staggered out of the door again.
Nan Fubo finally couldn't help it, and stopped him and said:
"Uncle Junior Master, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."
Bai Yu:
"If you have something to say, please tell me, I'm busy."
Nan Fubo said:
"Uncle Junior Master, tomorrow is the 30th day, we decided to stand guard at the state government office from tomorrow morning until the night of the day after tomorrow."
During these days, although Nan Fubo and others did not find any clues about the demon cultivator, they did not do nothing.
They found all the pregnant women born on the yin year, yin month and yin day in the whole state city, and then invited them to the government office for placement.
The state government office is suppressed by the dynasty dragon energy, and the strength of ordinary cultivators entering this place will be greatly reduced.
Nan Fubo and the others planned to wait and see if those demon cultivators dared to attack the government office.
Bai Yu:
"Just the three of you can do this. Do you think those demon cultivators dare to attack the government office?"
"You go ahead. I still have to save the fallen women in Yihong Courtyard."
After that, Bai Yu ignored Nan Fubo and walked out of the government office.
Nan Fubo suppressed his anger and shouted:
"Uncle Junior, at this critical moment, don't discredit our Leiyang Sect!"
Bai Yu sneered:
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"I have buried demons for my whole life, can't I enjoy myself?"
He took Lao Mo and went directly into Yihong Courtyard, and found a few girls to continue playing music and dancing.
Nan Fubo was furious and gnashed his teeth.
But he couldn't do anything to Bai Yu, so he had to make more rigorous arrangements.
At almost the same time, in a secret room.
A man in black robe came again:
"Sir, Madam, Nan Fubo has started to make arrangements. They have placed all pregnant women born in yin years, yin months and yin days in the government office."
The ugly woman with a lot of flesh asked:
"Are the four foundation builders ambushing in the government office?"
The man in black robe said:
"Bai Yu still went to Yihong Courtyard and quarreled with Nan Fubo."
The ugly woman sneered:
"At this time, they are still fighting among themselves. What Leiyang Shangzong is just a bunch of good-for-nothings."
"And Bai Yu goes to Yihong Courtyard every day. He is a sex-hungry ghost."
At this time, a skinny old man next to the ugly woman said:
"Be careful in everything. Send someone to Yihong Courtyard to keep an eye on him."
The man in black robe nodded and said:
"I understand. I will listen to your thunder tomorrow night."
The time finally came to the 30th.
The red sun set in the west, and the night enveloped the entire Xizhou City.
Nan Fubo and others became more and more vigilant. From this moment on, the demon cultivators might take action at any time.
They deployed both visible and hidden sentries, surrounding the government office.
Meanwhile, Bai Yu continued to play music and dance in Yihong Courtyard.
In a private room opposite him, a scarred man looked at the shadow reflected on the door opposite, with a smile on his face.
"He is really a playboy from a big sect, hopeless."
"When that thing is refined, we will flee far away."
He took out a sound transmission talisman calmly:
"Madam, sir, there is no abnormality here, you can start."
The government office was still as quiet as before.
Suddenly, there was a noise of fighting from the east of the city.
Nan Fubo snorted coldly:
"You dare to show off in front of me with a mere trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain."
He made up his mind.
No matter what happened in other places in the next two days, he must not go out.
However, a moment later, a yamen runner came hurriedly:
"Master, it's bad, several pregnant women have been killed in the east of the city."
"The Lord of the City brought a team of Yin soldiers to fight with the demon cultivators, and ordered me to ask for help."
Before Nan Fubo spoke, Taoist Yin said:
"Nonsense, all pregnant women born in Yin years, Yin months and Yin days are in the government office."
The yamen runner said anxiously:
"Lord of the City God said that those who were killed this time were pregnant women born in Yang years, Yang months and Yang days."
"And the number of people hunted is more than all the previous ones combined."
Nan Fubo's face changed drastically.
"It's bad, we are stuck in a fixed mindset!"
"The people who were killed in the past were all pregnant women born in Yin years, which doesn't mean that pregnant women other than these are useless to them, nor does it mean that they always need pregnant women born in Yin years."
Taoist Yin and Zen Master Fa'an looked at each other and felt that the situation was getting more serious.
Now they are in a dilemma.
If they don't go out and let the demon cultivators kill pregnant women born in Yang years, God knows what the consequences will be.
But if they go out, the pregnant women in the government office may be in danger.
Nan Fubo's eyes flashed with seriousness, and he quickly made a decision.
He slammed the table and said:
"We can't let them kill pregnant women outside like this."
Taoist Master Yin said:
"What if we fall into the trap of the demon cultivators to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
Nan Fubo said:
"Fellow Daoist Yin, you and I will take half of the constables to go, and at the same time, we will tell the general of the prefecture to send troops."
"As for Master Fa'an, take eight Qi-refining iron guards to stay in the government office, and you can't go out under any circumstances."
"With the dragon energy to suppress it and the magic array as a backup, even if the demon cultivators attack, Master Fa'an can deal with it."
Taoist Master Yin and Master Fa'an secretly praised him, worthy of being a hero of the Leiyang Sect, with quick reaction, decisiveness and good judgment.
In contrast, Bai Yu, who went to prostitutes when facing a powerful enemy, is hard to describe.
Nan Fubo made a decision, and immediately led people with Taoist Master Yin to kill out of the government office.
Soon, there were earth-shaking shouts and cries outside.
And there were more than one place, fighting seemed to have taken place in the east and south of the city.
Master Fa'an sat in the hall of the government office, chanting the Buddha's name.
In front of him, there was a transparent sensor bead, corresponding to the magic array in the government office.
If the magic array was triggered, the sensor bead would give an early warning.
He believed that in the government office suppressed by the dragon energy, unless it was a Jindan cultivator, it would be impossible to sneak into the government office quietly.
Suddenly, the sensor bead made a sharp sound.
A group of red dots appeared in the southwest direction.
"Amitabha, it's here as expected, let's see how I can defeat the devil and defend the way today!"
He put the sensor bead in his arms and hurried to the southwest corner.
Sure enough, in the southwest corner, a foundation-building demon cultivator and several people were trying to break the protective magic array.
Master Fa'an offered a string of prayer beads and led his men to fight with the demon cultivator.
However, at this time, a yamen runner was quietly rushing to the hall where the pregnant woman was.
A hint of mockery appeared on his lips.
The dragon energy of the government office can indeed restrain the devil cultivators.
But what if the invader is not a cultivator, but a martial arts master?
