I have a knife, I can kill monsters when I take it out of its sheath

Chapter 5 Wilderness, ruined temple, cold light, knife shadow

The same was true for Ji Chen. The voice was mainly aimed at him, and he felt panic in his heart.

It's not the panic of fear, it's like the panic and fear of being yelled at by the teacher when you didn't finish your homework as a child, and then you were at a loss.

In the pupils, the red figure is getting closer and closer.

The true dragon blood energy in Ji Chen's body was boiling, galloping, roaring, roaring, and there seemed to be a dragon's roar, shaking Ji Chen's mind.

In an instant, the panic disappeared, and Ji Chen's mind returned to clarity.

The red figure was approaching, just a stone's throw away.

Ji Chen took a step back, forming a forward and backward horse stance. He held the knife in both hands at shoulder level, with the tip of the knife pointing straight ahead. The blood in his body poured into the knife along his arms, and he stabbed forward suddenly.

This series of actions lasted only a moment, and the tip of the knife easily stabbed the red-haired monster between the eyebrows.

"puff!"

The red-haired monster's claws were only an inch away from Ji Chen's throat.

Ji Chen's heart was beating wildly. After all, he was the one who took the lead.

The red-haired monster let out a sharp cry and backed away crazily.

It's scared, it's scared.

No one, no matter how good they are, can't escape the same law: the timid are afraid of the bold, the bold are afraid of the desperate, and the desperate are afraid of risking their lives.

Ji Chen's knife directly seriously injured the red-haired monster.

It wanted to escape, but Ji Chen could not let it do so. The moment the monster retreated, he took a step forward.

Stride and slash.

The sword flashed away.

"puff!"

The head of the red-haired monster was neatly chopped off.

Dark brown blood spurted out, and Ji Chen took a step back.

[Killing points +337]

Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief, he almost capsized in the gutter just now.

This turned out to be a first-level third-level zombie demon, which was a little beyond his expectation.

The intelligence given by the Yamen was level two, otherwise he would not have dared to take the risk.

Ji Chen looked outside the door. The cold wind was howling in the dark night sky, and the brocade that he cut into two pieces at the door was gone.

He was sure that the previous knife hit him, so the weird one must have been injured and retreated.

After confirming Wei Wei retreated, Ji Chen's eyes fell on the corpse demon.

This year, the borderlands are in chaos, corpses are everywhere, resentments are lingering, ghosts are lingering, and it is reasonable for corpses to turn into monsters.

But this is not a good sign. If left unchecked for a long time, a powerful corpse demon may evolve.

From this point of view, Maplewood Town is not a safe place.

Don't worry about it for now. When your strength improves, you will leave Maplewood Town and leave first as a courtesy.

The government officials finally recovered and looked at the beheaded red-haired monster with lingering fear.

"Master Xiucai, it won't come back to life!" Zhao Bantou asked cautiously.

"Probably not." Ji Chen said calmly.

"That's good!" Several people felt relieved.

"Master Xiu Cai is so powerful! We finally got rid of this monster."

"I knew the scholar could easily deal with this monster."

"Master Xiu Cai has eliminated this monster, and the people of Maplewood Town will definitely shed tears of gratitude."

The first few people in Zhao's squad were flattering again.

Ji Chen knew what they meant, so he said, "You have a share in the silver reward."

"Master Xiucai, that's not what we meant!" Team Leader Zhao smiled awkwardly.

Ji Chen ignored it, but cut open the corpse monster's chest with a knife and took out a green bead from its heart.

This is the zombie elixir of the corpse demon. It is a level three demon elixir. It is considered a very good treasure, exceeding expectations.

The adventure was worth it, even though it almost capsized in the gutter.

He pulled out a piece of brocade cloth from his arms, wiped the blood on the blade, returned the knife to its sheath, and put away the Corpse Pill.

The monster has been killed, but it will still be a long time before dawn, so they can only stay in the temple and wait until dawn before returning to Maplewood Town.

The body of the red-haired monster was thrown out by several members of the Zhao squad.

After all, this thing is in the temple, and it looks scary.

The corpse demon's head was wrapped in cloth by Zhao Ban, and he was going to take it back to collect the reward.

Several people sat down around the fire again.

"Xiao Liu, go push the door open."

Squad leader Zhao ordered to a young government servant next to him.

Xiaoliu just followed them to gain experience.

Leader Zhao didn't want to take him with him, but he insisted on following him to gain experience.

It can only be said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

Fortunately, he was more diligent, so Team Leader Zhao took him with him.

Xiaoliu got up and went to the door of the temple. He stood up the collapsed door again and held it up with a stick, barely blocking the cold wind.

The temple was very quiet except for the crackling sound of the fire burning.

Ji Chen took a look at his attributes and saw that he had accumulated 400 killing points.

The armored sword technique showed that it could be improved, but he didn't plan to improve it now. He wanted to accumulate enough killing points to improve the dragon subduing technique.

He is currently at the second level of foundation building, but he has successfully killed the third level zombie demon. Although it has the sharpness bonus of the demon-slaying knife, it is enough to prove the extraordinary skill of subduing the dragon.

The first few people in Zhao's squad were close to each other, drowsy.

Without the threat of monsters, they felt more at ease.

Ji Chen didn't sleep. He had to be alert at all times in this environment.

After all, it's freezing cold today, and I don't dare let anyone go outside to let the wind blow. They might freeze to death outside.

As the night progressed, Ji Chen vaguely heard footsteps, which were a bit messy and accompanied by conversations.

Chaotic footsteps quickly approached the mountain temple.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the door of the mountain temple was violently kicked open. A strong wind poured in, and the flames were blown away.

A dozen men braved the cold wind and stepped into the mountain temple.

"Oh! There are really people who are not afraid of death spending the night here."

A rough voice sounded.

Bantou Zhao and the others woke up instantly and pulled out their knives in unison.

Seeing this, the group of men who broke in also drew their knives.

The two sides just confronted each other, and their swords were at war.

Opposite is a group of traveling businessmen, more than twenty in each group, including two women holding swords. Although they are dusty, they can still vaguely look good.

Traveling merchants shuttle between the wilderness and the borderlands, earning commissions from the trade differences between the two sides.

At the same time, they also have another title, Border Bandits.

If you wear a veil, you are a frontier bandit; if you take off the veil, you are a businessman.

"Guys, don't get me wrong. It's freezing cold and there's no place to stay around here. I came here when I saw the fire. I hope it's convenient for our brothers to let us spend the night. Everyone is away from home. It's not easy. .”

One of the men who looked like a leader opened his mouth to explain, and his words were quite polite.

As soon as Team Leader Zhao wanted to speak, Ji Chen stopped him.

"There is a village three miles away. You can stay there for the night."

Ji Chen didn't intend to let them in. Firstly, they had just killed a demon, and the reward of two thousand taels of silver was enough to attract money. What's more, he had a third-level Corpse Pill in his arms.

A gentleman is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade.

The origins of this group of people are unknown, and there are no traveling merchants who are still on the road in the middle of the night. People who are struggling to make a living on the border, no one with a little common sense will do this.

So they are not businessmen, but probably demon slayers like me.

Only demon slayers would appear in the desert at night.

"Brother, it's not easy for everyone when you're away from home. This temple doesn't belong to your family, right. It's okay today, but we'll see you later. The mountains are high and far away. In the reincarnation of heaven, there will always be a time when we meet again."

Ji Chen slowly pulled out the knife, "Reincarnation is too far away from me. I don't think it is that long. Life is short. I only seize the day."
