Looking at the pack of Weilong gluten lying in his warehouse, and then looking at his store balance, Li Guhong couldn't help but sigh,

"I hope the effect of this little Weilong is worth his ten yuan. Well... the most important thing is that its side effects should not be too severe."

As if he remembered something, Li Guhong couldn't help but shudder.

After buying the things, he had nothing else to do except defend him. Li Guhong meditated on the ground, picked up the Qi-Entraining Technique, and started practicing in the attic.

However, he did not relax. Li Guhong's body was slowly running the exercises, and his heart and eyes were still feeling the changes in the surrounding environment.

He was always on alert for the leopard demon's attack and waiting for the sound of gongs and drums in the distance - this was the way Li Guhong and everyone in Zhangjiacun had agreed early in the morning to seek help.

He maintained this state and practiced in the attic all night, but there was no movement nearby or far away. It was not until the sun rose the next day that Li Guhong exited the meditating state and stood up from the ground.

Although it is not impossible for the leopard monster to appear in the morning, according to the leopard monster's habits, the probability of appearing during the day is very low, because compared to the night, there are too many unfavorable factors during the day, and ordinary monsters do not

They will choose this time to come out to look for food.

Li Guhong first performed the Eagle Claw Kung Fu several times in the attic. Feeling that his technique had improved somewhat, he walked down the attic floor with satisfaction and walked slowly to the open space next to the house.

He took out the long stainless steel sword he had just bought, and practiced the wood-burning sword technique and the ancestral set of Li family sword techniques. The two swords were performed one after another, either breaking down the movements or combining them for practice.

After the whole process, it was already past seven o'clock.

As early as when Li Guhong came downstairs, there were villagers irrigating crops in the farmland far away from the mountain, but most of the villagers were far away from him because he was located closest to the foot of the mountain.

Because of the presence of the leopard demon, not many people dared to get up early to work in the fields near the foot of the mountain, fearing that the leopard demon would not take the usual path and sneak attack the villagers.

As time went by, Li Guhong gradually discovered that more and more people were busy nearby, and there were even a few kids practicing some basic boxing skills on the ground.

These boxing techniques are not moves that can move the vitality. They are all tricks that practice movements and strength in the air. They cannot use half of your cultivation. They are just very effective in strengthening the body and polishing the foundation.

At this time, Zhang Yuan, the owner of the house where Li Guhong lived, also came back from the ancestral hall of the villagers at the foot of Mount An. He held a basket with food in his hand, walked to Li Guhong's side, and greeted him to have breakfast.

Seeing this, Li Guhong stopped his practice, followed Zhang Yuan back into the house, sat down at the dining table, and chatted with Zhang Yuan while eating breakfast.

"Brother Gu Hong, was there nothing going on in the village last night? Can the leopard demon be caught?"

Zhang Yuan asked Li Guhong curiously. As an ordinary person, he urgently hoped that Li Guhong would get rid of the leopard monster that threatened his life.

Zhang Yuan had trouble sleeping and eating during this period. His home was the most dangerous area in the village, and he had no ability to defend himself. He only learned some basic banker moves in the village when he was young.

"Last night was calm, nothing happened. Brother Yuan, we can't rush this matter. To be honest, I want to get rid of this beast more than you do, but if he doesn't show up, there's nothing we can do about it. Let's go into the mountain

The danger is greater."

Li Guhong spread his hands and explained helplessly to Zhang Yuan that the risk of entering the mountain was too high. He did not want to take the risk and could only wait in the village.

"You know, you know, I'm very anxious too. I can't help it. Who told me that my home is so close to the foot of the mountain? There are so many things that I can't take with me."

Zhang Yuan sighed. He and his family could go to the ancestral hall to avoid the limelight. The pigs and cows he raised were kept in a large shed not far from his home.

These livestock cannot be taken away. If they are stolen by the leopard demon, he will not even cry. What's more, his family's field is also close to the foot of the mountain. Every day when he goes out to work, he is nervous. This life is a bit difficult.

.

"Brother Yuan, I will do my best to get rid of this leopard monster and give the villagers of Zhangjiacun a peaceful life."

Li Guhong solemnly promised Zhang Yuan, and after speaking, he took a hard bite of the steamed bun in his hand.

Then again, the breakfast in this village is actually very simple. It is completely incomparable with what Li Guhong usually eats in Qingshi City. It is just rice, noodles, steamed buns and the like, only coarse food, no fine food.

The steamed buns here are not as refined and delicious as those that Li Guhong had eaten in Tianchao before. They are just coarse food, without even sugar, and the taste is not sweet at all, and even tastes a little astringent.

But Li Guhong didn't dislike it. He knew that the conditions in the mountains were like this. Although the steamed buns didn't taste very good, they still tasted quite satisfying. They were pure natural pollution-free green food. Li Guhong was satisfied after eating only a few.

Starting to feel full.

At this time, Zhang Fu came over from a distant area and said that Mr. Zhang asked Li Guhong to come over and tell him if he found anything wrong last night.

We still need to continue discussing the plan to defend the village tonight to avoid any mistakes. After eating and drinking, Li Guhong followed Zhang Fu to Mr. Zhang's home at the head of the village.

Before Li Guhong reached Mr. Zhang's house, he heard Zhang Gou'er's voice in the distance, followed the sound and looked over, and saw him in front of the door of Mr. Zhang's house.

In front of him stood a few kids with their heads lowered, as if they were scolding those naughty kids. Zhang Gouer scolded those naughty kids loudly,

The content of the conversation was nothing more than just running around in the village without practicing this morning. Li Guhong even heard one of the naughty children looking like he wanted to go up the mountain, as if he wanted to challenge the leopard demon in a duel.

.....

It's just that the naughty kid didn't go far, let alone go up the mountain. The naughty kid didn't even get close to the bottom of the mountain when he was caught by the dog. Although the naughty kids lowered their heads, they

There was a very unconvinced look on each of their little faces.

"Hey, you still seem to be unconvinced, right?"

Zhang Gouer obviously felt the resentment in the hearts of these little devils. He put one hand on his hips and pointed at the naughty children with the other.

"With your small bodies, running around here early in the morning, if that beast from the mountain comes down, you are not enough to fill the gap between its teeth. It is true that beasts and calves are not afraid of leopards, let alone you, even your uncles.

I had no choice but to run away when I met that beast." "And you, Zhang Xiaogui, you are very dissatisfied, aren't you?"

"You are the eldest among them. They can be considered ignorant if they run around. You are almost a head taller than them. You actually want to run into the mountains, and you are shouting something about killing all the way.

Slay demons. Kill demons? Do you have that ability?"

Zhang Gou'er pointed at one of the taller naughty children with his hands on his hips and shouted loudly. When the nearby villagers watching the fun heard Zhang Gou'er's scolding, they also burst out laughing. It seemed that

I also feel that Zhang Xiaogui is a brat who is not afraid of getting into trouble.

Hearing the sneers from the surrounding villagers, the naughty boy named Zhang Chengtian raised his stubborn little head, and his flushed little face seemed to be a little darker.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to argue properly with Zhang Gou'er in front of him, but when he met Zhang Gou'er's eyes that were filled with hatred, he lowered his head and remained silent.

When Zhang Gou'er saw Xiao Gui raising his head, he seemed to want to argue with him, but he was suddenly so angry that he couldn't speak. He raised his little hand and waved it in the air.

"Okay, very good. You guys, all go to the ancestral hall and kneel down. Kneel down for me. You are not allowed to get up without my order. Especially you, Xiaogui. Not only do you have to kneel down, but after we finish kneeling together, you

Go to Pingdi and fight "Powerful Fist" a hundred times."

"A hundred times! Did you hear me? Now get out of here and go to the ancestral hall."

Seeing the dejected faces of the naughty children, Zhang Gouer was out of sight and out of mind, and drove them all to the ancestral hall in Zhangjiacun to let them reflect.

As early as when Li Guhong was approaching, Zhang Gouer also noticed the arrival of Li Guhong and Zhang Fu. After driving away the naughty children, he strode towards the two people standing not far away.

go.

"I'm making you laugh, brother Gu Hong. Those incompetent naughty kids in the village really don't let me worry about it for a day."

Zhang Gou'er looked a little embarrassed. He seemed to think that scolding the brat in his village so angrily in front of Li Guhong would be disrespectful to his image.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Brother Dog, don't say that. I think the children in your village are very good. It's amazing that they can have such ambitions at such a young age!"

Li Guhong sighed two words in succession, Zhangjia Village has good intentions for the education of the younger generation. The children have been working hard since they were young, and the children all have strong bodies.

It is not bad for the ideological education of future generations. Killing demons and demons is not a joke, but it can kill people. Obviously, this naughty kid named Zhang Xiaogui often listened to similar stories told by the villagers before and learned the same thing.

.

"It's passed, brother Gu Hong, this little kid is just joking. If he really encounters a monster, he might be so scared that he wets his pants."

Zhang Gou'er was a little embarrassed to be praised by Li Guhong, and he touched his head and said sheepishly.

"Children of ordinary families only play for fun at this age, and their ambition in life is to slay demons. When they grow up, they will definitely accomplish a lot!"

Li Guhong waved his hand quickly and answered seriously.

This is not a compliment, but Li Guhong's heartfelt emotion. That naughty kid named Zhang Xiaogui looks to be no more than eight or nine years old. It is really unusual for him to say such a thing at such an age.

.

When Li Guhong was as old as he was, he was either thinking about how to practice "wrestling" with his classmates in school, or thinking about how to trick his father into buying him candy.

The three of them just talked for a short time. They didn't stay too much outside the door and walked into Mr. Zhang's house one after another. As soon as Li Guhong entered the door, he saw several old men and Zhang Qing waiting on their chairs.

After that, a few people were drinking tea and talking there.

Next to them, there was another man whose upper body was tightly wrapped with some cloth straps, and his right hand and left leg were wrapped with cloth straps made of unknown herbs.

The white cloth belt on the upper body clearly showed the blood oozing from the wound. The man had been sitting in a wooden wheelchair in a strange posture, looking at several people silently with his eyes open.

Li Guhong thought for a while, this man who looked like a mummy should be the person that Mr. Zhang and the others were talking about yesterday.

I remembered correctly that his name was Zhang Daniu. He had a confrontation with the leopard demon at his home cattle farm, but was easily injured by the leopard demon and almost lost his life.

"Find a seat and sit down, I'll leave you alone."

Mr. Zhang urged the people who came in, but from the tone of his words, Li Guhong felt a hint of solemnity.

"Zhang Qing went to Daniel's house this morning to check on Daniel's injury and found that Daniel's current condition is much better than a few days ago."

"Zhang Qing brought him over from the ancestral hall this morning. He planned to let him hang out more and breathe fresh air. By the way, let me tell you more about the beast's situation in detail. Alas."

Mr. Zhang pointed at Zhang Daniu, who was bandaged in many places, and his words were a little low.

Everyone on the side nodded and focused their attention on Zhang Daniu. Because Zhang Daniu was seriously injured some days ago, it was inconvenient to disturb Zhang Daniu's rest.

Before, when they forced the leopard demon away, they had roughly learned about the leopard demon's strength from Zhang Daniu's mouth, but did not have a more detailed understanding. It would be best if Zhang Daniu could explain it in detail today.

Yesterday, Li Guhong heard Mr. Zhang talk about a lot of things about the leopard demon, but it would be best if someone who had personally fought with the leopard demon could explain it in detail.

Have a clearer understanding of strength.

Seeing everyone present staring at him like a curious baby, Zhang Daniu slowly spoke. The content of his words was clear, but there was a sense of weakness in his tone.

"That night, after the sun went down, I was practicing in the attic of my home while paying attention to the surrounding situation. Late at night, I originally thought that tonight would be a peaceful night like usual, and that the leopard demon would not come over.

"

Speaking of this, Zhang Daniu changed the subject.

"Suddenly, I felt that the surroundings became dead silent, as if something terrifying was approaching my home, and the chirping insects around me also stopped their chirping."

The hearts of everyone present rose and fell with the tone of Zhang Daniu's words, as if they were immersed in the scene, and the atmosphere in the air gradually became tense.

"I felt something was very wrong. I didn't know if the leopard demon was coming. I didn't dare to be careless at all, so I immediately stopped practicing, got up and struck the gong next to me three times in a row."
