Chapter 27 Showdown, I killed him
The talisman burned in the water and turned into a dragnet, instantly covering the kappa demon.
The kappa demon stopped as if frozen, and the fear in its eyes also froze. For it, time and life seem to have stopped.
shore.
Although Beiyue Feihuai couldn't see clearly what was going on at the bottom of the lake, his keen perception easily caught the strange behavior of the kappa demon.
Not to be missed.
He made a prompt decision, twisted his sword skills, put his middle and index fingers together, and pointed at the Peach Blossom Pond.
Whoosh!
The sword was instantly unsheathed, like a dragon falling from the sky, and plunged into the peach blossom pool.
Pfft——
The water splashed up to a height of three feet.
A whirlpool appeared on the lake where the sword had struck it, spinning rapidly and getting bigger and bigger.
The sword floated like a snake in the water, slicing across the kappa demon's neck.
Blood gushes out and dyes the nearby pool water red, making it extremely scarlet.
Beiyue Feihuai is indeed a master of swordsmanship, and this sword demonstrates his "quickness, ruthlessness and accuracy" to the fullest.
but……
There are still some differences in body structure between demons and humans. Its physical body has a very strong ability to recover. The best way to kill a demon is not to cut off its head, but to crush its demon pill!
Although Beiyue Feihuai's sword separated the Kappa corpse, its vitality was not completely cut off.
Li Nuo is definitely an expert among experts when it comes to slaying monsters.
After all, the monsters suppressed in the [Purgatory Tower] are all his experimental subjects, and he has already mastered the fastest and most labor-saving way to kill the monsters.
At this time, the kappa demon's strength was greatly reduced, and his body was as brittle as tissue paper. Of course, he would not waste this opportunity. He stabbed the kappa into the abdomen with one knife and then stirred it hard.
Click.
The demon pill shattered.
The kappa seemed to be having a flashback, its originally dilated pupils regrouped. It roared something low, and Li Nuo only heard the word "blood pill". After three breaths, its pupils turned pale and its whole body collapsed. .
At the same time, the golden book in Li Nuo's mind showed a shadow of golden light, and two objects appeared——
[Intermediate Experience Pill] and [Golden Body Dharma Appearance (Incomplete)].
As before, [Experience Pill] is swallowed directly. The effect is not much different from the one brushed from the white snake demon. Li Nuo estimated that with ten more intermediate experience pills, he would be able to break through the shackles of his realm.
But this [Golden Body Dharma Appearance (Incomplete)] is a bit interesting...
Obviously, this is a Buddhist technique, and it is also a high-end product. Unfortunately, the word "incomplete" greatly reduces its value.
However, a kappa demon actually learned Buddhist techniques, which is a bit intriguing...
Li Nuo recalled carefully.
After the Kappa demon transformed, a faint shadow did appear behind him. Perhaps it was because of its mutilation that it was very different from the golden body dharma that those Buddhist disciples cultivated. Moreover, the scene was chaotic and no one noticed those details.
"Uncle, uncle! Are you okay?"
On the shore, Qiluo shouted anxiously.
Li Nuo recovered his mind and quickly got out of the Peach Blossom Pond.
The body of the kappa also surfaced.
Li Nuo climbed ashore, ran a qi machine to steam his clothes, and said, "The kappa demon is dead. Is this major case in the Criminal Department over?"
Although Beiyue Feihuai's clothes were in tatters, he held his head high and had a good handle on his temperament. He said proudly: "Of course!"
It can be said that this is the biggest case he has ever handled in his position as head of the Criminal Department. Although he failed to catch anyone alive, the flaws are not concealed. The body of the Kappa Demon is enough to handle the case.
Qin Beitian stroked his beard, grinned and said, "I would also like to thank Brother Li for your help. I hope I can transfer him."
"Congratulations to both of you."
Li Nuo thought for a while, but did not tell the story about the Kappa Demon Association [Golden Body Dharma Appearance].
This matter involves too much...
If Buddhism is really involved, it will be a major case that shakes the foundation of the country!
Even if something goes wrong, Beiyue Feihuai will be implicated.
Compared with the entire Buddhist system, the size of an aristocratic family pales into insignificance.
The Beiyue family will definitely cut off their own strength and treat Beiyue Feihuai as an abandoned son.
Then here comes the problem!
Sacrificing blood to humans to refine blood elixirs...are Buddhists really not afraid of being punished by God for doing this?
Right!
Divine punishment is a Taoist term, while Buddhism talks about cause and effect. They should have some means to block the power of cause and effect so that it cannot get involved.
Back to business.
Beiyue Feihuai cupped his hands and said to everyone: "Thank you all for your help. I have to return to Chang'an immediately to recover. I'll see you again if we have the chance."
Qin Beitian smiled and said: "Come here, fish out the body of the kappa and smear it with slaked lime..."
Qin Beitian didn't dare to do such a life-threatening job as a head-on fight, but he was quite skilled at the job of collecting corpses and finishing.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.
The government officials he led rushed to salvage the body of the kappa.
They were not afraid at all, and their faces shone with excitement.
Yes, this is the capital to brag to others after dinner, how can you let it go easily.
Before everyone left, they also went to see the abbot.
Li Nuo deliberately stayed behind and looked at the Zen master secretly, but his expression did not change at all. Even when he heard that they killed the kappa on the spot, he was still indifferent, which made him a little confused.
Kappa and Buddhism are definitely inextricably linked.
The old monk wasn't involved, so he naturally didn't believe it.
What's more, the kappa demon is only in the fifth-level realm. Even if it can perform illusions, it will never escape the eyes of a fourth-level Zen master!
Whatever...
I am just a little jailer, why should I get involved in something that could cost me my life?
Besides, I am no longer alone. Now that I am married, I have to think about my wife.
Even if the sky falls, there is still a tall man holding it up. He is not a savior, so why worry about it in vain.
Afterwards, everyone parted ways on the banks of the Yuzhou River.
Heading all the way back to Chang'an and back to the government office for errands, Li Nuo took Qi Luo to his store.
Well, I also brought back a little follower, Cui Liyan.
Li Nuo asked as he walked: "Li Yan, aren't you going back to Chang'an with Qin Xiaolou and the others?"
Cui Liyan glanced at Qiluo secretly, and then said righteously: "Li Zian, I am here to investigate the murder of Cui Xiangdi. If the murderer is not found, I will not return to Chang'an!"
"When you said this, did you feel some gray dust appear on Wen Xin?"
Li Nuo joked.
"Ahem... I recite holy words every day and wipe my heart from time to time, so that it won't get dusty."
Cui Liyan straightened his clothes and manner.
Li Nuo smiled and said: "Okay, I've shown my cards. I actually killed Cui Xiangdi. How about you?"
"ah?"
Cui Liyan turned pale with shock, and the corners of his lips trembled.
"I'm just teasing you. You really aren't scared. It seems that it is necessary for you to go to Shushan to practice. It's best to develop a literary talent."
Seeing Cui Liyan's appearance, Li Nuo couldn't help laughing.
To be honest, although Cui Xiangdi's death was related to him, he did not die by his sword.
