Chapter 65 Encounter
Xia Jian walked out of the dark alley that emitted a strong stench.
I thought the street would be better.
The results are no different.
The stone roads that have been disrepair for many years are bumpy and dirty smelly water accumulates in the pits.
The streets were also covered with various fish scales, hair, rotten vegetable leaves and other garbage, and even feces.
Any step may cause you to step on something dirty.
This is undoubtedly a torture for Xia Jian, who has an extremely sensitive sense of smell.
Isn’t anyone taking care of this outer slum?
Can the upper class people in the middle and inner circles pass by here and endure this environment?
However, it is said that the city is divided into three circles: inside, inside, inside and outside, and the outermost circle of slums is used as an abandonable part.
Just in case one day, if you are invaded by neighboring countries or when the blood moon rises, the day when all demons attack the city.
The poor people outside can all act as sacrificial "items" that delay the enemy.
Buy time for residents on the two laps to escape and hide.
Tsk tsk tsk, I think there is no human rights in this era without money or status.
Xia Jian frowned and was about to leave the slums in the outer circle overnight and enter the inner city to look for Xiaobai.
Sudden!
A rushing sound of horse hooves and firelight were approaching quickly from the street in front!
Xia Jian was shocked. Could it be that he had sneaked in and was discovered?
Why are there patrols here?
He immediately jumped into the alley next to him with his sensitive reaction ability.
And jump into a large bamboo basket for fish and cover the lid.
As the sound of horse hooves approaches, and the flames passing through the gaps in the bamboo basket.
Xia Jian could detect that the other party's group of troops had stopped at the entrance of the alley.
"It's near here! Find that guy from house to house! If you haven't found it, you won't think of having a meal these days!"
After a rough voice was issued with an order that seemed to be the leader, a group of soldiers began to search around.
Xia Jian heard the sound of them smashing the door and the sound of searching after entering the house.
It should be a violent search.
He was very confused. He was obviously very careful, so why was he discovered soon?
Xia Jian pinched his nose, endured the fishy smell in the fish basket, and was about to adjust his comfortable posture.
Just turned around and saw two green pupils beside me staring at me with a close eye...
"ah……"
He subconsciously exclaimed.
But he quickly covered his mouth with one palm.
"Shh! Sigh it down!"
At the same time, a woman's voice rang in her ears.
Xia Jian widened his eyes and waited for his eyes to adapt to the darkness. Seeing that there was a young woman in this fish basket?
But she had half a mask on her face, covering her upper half, only revealing her eyes that were glowing green in the darkness.
A black tights wrap around her curvy and slim figure.
If it is in the dark, it is impossible to detect her existence.
But what attracted Xia Jian the most was the two cat ears on her head...
What is this?
Cat demon?
Xia Jian finally realized that the soldiers were not looking for him, but looking for this female cat demon.
"Hmm? Did some noise come from this alley just now?"
"I heard it too, let's go and take a look."
Several soldiers who were about to smash the door at the entrance of the alley heard the sound and immediately walked over with torches.
"It's over, it's all your fault. I'm obviously hiding here."
The catwoman saw the fire getting closer and closer to her through the gaps between the fish and bamboo baskets, and seemed a little anxious.
Xia Jian took away her hand that covered her mouth and looked at her with contempt.
I was also cheated by this woman, and I will be implicated by her now.
The soldier held the torch and complained that he had no rest at night while searching for the garbage dump in the alley.
Don't let go of every corner.
Finally, one of the soldiers noticed the big fish basket and walked over.
At this moment, the cat woman's chest was undulating violently, and the nails on her five fingers quickly became longer and sharp.
He also bared his sharp fangs and looked fierce!
Depending on the situation, you are ready to deal with the upcoming attack.
And this time, it was Xia Jian's turn to cover her mouth and block her fangs.
"Don't move, let me do it."
As soon as the words fell.
The soldier had already arrived at the fish basket.
He held the torch in one hand and lifted the lid of the fish basket with the other.
Look inside.
I saw two pairs of eyes glowing red and green inside staring at me...
………
The soldier was stunned when he saw this, then widened his eyes and his mouth gradually opened and was about to scream!
Xia Jian's red pupils immediately rotated and used the charm technique on him!
The soldier had no skills and his mental power was average, so he was immediately controlled and stayed there.
After searching for the other soldiers, they saw this companion staring blankly by the fish basket, and asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Have you noticed what's going on?"
After a brief moment of confusion, the soldier replied mechanically: "No, nothing unusual."
Then, the lid was re-covered.
The other companions felt that he was a little weird. Could it be that he was too sleepy when he was screamed in the middle of the night?
I don’t bother to care about so much. Since there is nothing wrong with this alley, I will continue to search for these poor people’s homes.
So they all left the alley.
The catwoman looked at the man in front of him in a shocked manner in the fish basket. What did he do to the soldier just now???
After about half an incense stick, the street had no target they wanted to find, so they drove their horses away from searching for the next area.
Hearing their departure.
At this time, the two people hiding in the bamboo basket breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey, what did you do just now? Teach me?"
The catwoman stared at Xia Jian curiously and said with a little enviousness in his tone.
"This is talent, you can't learn it."
Xia Jian responded coldly, then stood up and lifted the lid, ready to leave.
I don’t want to waste my time anymore, finding Xiaobai is the first priority.
However, I suddenly felt a little soft and weak.
He lowered his head and saw that his tail was being caught by this cat demon...
"Oh~ So you are a fox demon, no wonder." The catwoman stroked his big furry tail with a sudden enlightenment.
In fact, their cat demon clan can also learn low-level charm techniques, but they are far less powerful than the demon fox clan.
Xia Jian slapped her hand speechlessly, jumped out of the fish basket, jumped onto the roof in three or two steps, and began to run towards the middle circle of the city with light and fast steps.
"Hey, why did you leave so soon? Are you not curious about why I was hiding?"
At this time, the cat demon ran on all sides and easily chased after him, his speed was only faster than Xia Jian, and he did not make any sound, just like a ghost in the darkness.
After all, the cat race has the best reaction ability and speed, which is well known.
Xia Jian turned his head and saw that there was a slender black cat tail behind her butt, which was even more eye-catching than himself. It seemed that this was a common problem after all monsters turned into humans.
"If you don't have any interest, can't you hide your tail?"
"No, the tail is used to maintain balance. If I hide the tail, it will be easy for me to fall when I run."
Xia Jian……
