I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 4: Stone Mill

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is one of the three great joys in life.

But at this time, Kong Ning couldn't be happy at all.

Because he met an enemy...

Staring and sensing the earthen pot floating in his dantian, Kong Ning's first reaction was to smash the thing.

But then, he realized something was wrong.

This pitch-black jar has some sort of connection with Kong Ning. After Kong Ning frowned and sensed it, he inexplicably knew the purpose of this thing.

Devouring and refining...

This pitch-black pot can devour and refine the souls with spiritual energy in the body, and feed back into the air.

And the way it devours is very simple, as long as Kongning kills the target.

After realizing this, Kong Ning's expression was slightly startled.

This crock pot... so evil?

Was he killed by this evil thing?

However, it devours other creatures and feeds Kong Ning back... This evil sect's earthen pot, which killed Kong Ning at the beginning, has now allowed Kong Ning to see a glimmer of light in his life.

As a mortal, he can't really fight the monsters at home.

But if you can rely on this weird crock in your dantian, the situation may be different.

It's just a creature with aura in its body... Does this mean a monster? Or practitioners?

Standing under the tree, Kong Ning was speechless. In a small county town in Shanlan County, where can I find a living being with spiritual energy?

Although in addition to Devouring and Refining, this Crock Pot can also be used to find targets. Fill the jar with qi, and it can find all nearby targets weaker than Kongning.

But Kong Ning was skeptical about whether there were monsters in the county seat.

After he took a deep breath, he poured all the true energy in his dantian into the pitch-black pot. Soon, one after another, ethereal and invisible breaths spread out in all directions with Kongning as the center.

The things in Kong Ning's field of vision have also changed.

The small county town under the blazing sun seemed to be covered with a faint cyan mist. Looking around, the entire county is in such a strange blue smoke.

Seeing Kong Ning in such a situation, his pupils contracted slightly.

Because the blue mist floating in the county town represents the demonic spirit of youkai!

A small Shanlan County has demonic aura everywhere? how can that be!

Could it be that the monsters in the county town are not only the scorpion spirit of Su Yan? Monsters everywhere?

Boom!

Kong Ning, who was in shock, shuddered in his mind, and got out of that strange and mysterious state.

——The black tank has found its target!

Kong Ning's expression was shocked and dazed. What happened this day and night has completely overturned his past cognition.

Although the strange blue smoke floating in the field of vision has all disappeared, the county town under the scorching sun has returned to its normal appearance again. But the horrifying scene that Xun Mi saw in the state made Kong Ning fully understand the sinister situation in the county where he was located.

In addition to the demon girl at home, there are other monsters in the county, and the number seems to be quite large, so that there is a demon everywhere in the county...

Kong Ning's heart is a little cold.

In the small town of Shanlan, there are so many demons lurking, no wonder there are so many inexplicable disappearances every year.

What the **** is going on in this world!

The seemingly peaceful and serene ancient world hides such a terrifying danger?

What about the gods, Buddhas and immortals? Where have the experts from the mysterious sect who are said to exist together with demons go? Why are there so many demons here that no one cares about... Or is it because Shanlan County is located in a remote area and there is no protection from the experts of Xuanmen, so the demons dance wildly?

Kongning, who has never left Shanlan County and has seen the truth of the world, is unable to understand the situation in this world.

But the truth about Shanlan County, which had been unveiled in front of his eyes, turned out to be terrifyingly dangerous.

Fortunately, he is not without the opportunity to resist...

Taking a deep breath, Kong Ning stood up, walked in front of the thin jujube yellow horse, pulled the reins directly, and sat on it. In this way, he rode a thin jujube yellow horse and left the river bank with the Pu Dao on his waist.

In Kong Ning's field of vision, there was a faint white smoke drifting. This streamer-like white smoke endlessly extends to the county seat, guiding the direction of Kongning's goal.

After using the black pot's search ability, he actually found a suitable target... Although the faint white smoke guides the end, he has no idea what kind of demon Kong Ning is.

But at this time, Kong Ning seems to have no choice but to look at it in the past.

Sitting astride a thin jujube-yellow horse, facing the scorching sun, Kong Ning constantly shuttles through the streets and alleys of the county town. The further you go, the more remote and shady the road becomes.

At the end, I came to the Shipan Mill in the north corner of the city.

The wisp of white smoke disappeared into the small stone mill.

Seeing Kong Ning in this scene, the horse stopped and did not approach rashly.

Shipan Mill, located on the bank of Wangjiang River in the north of Shanlan County, is the smallest water mill in the city. The operators are a family of three, Shi Yong and his wife, the owner of the mill, and Shi Gui, the younger brother of Shi Yong.

Originally there was a little girl in the family, but the girl disappeared last year.

Every year there are some disappearances in Shanlan County, but if the family members of the parties do not report the case to the yamen, the yamen is too lazy to meddle in their own business - unless it is profitable.

Kong Ning didn't take Shi Yong's sister's disappearance to heart before~IndoMTL.com~ But now it looks like it might have something to do with monsters?

Kong Ning, riding a jujube yellow horse, quietly watched the Shipan Mill under the scorching sun.

After arriving here, the misty white smoke that guided Kong Ning's path disappeared. But now that Shipan Mill had been locked, Kong Ning was not in a hurry to approach.

It was almost noon at this time, the scorching sun was scorching hot, and people were hiding in their homes to enjoy the coolness. The surroundings of Shipan Mill were empty and silent, and no one could be seen in the narrow alley.

In this era of no technological creation and no electricity, the mill is an important livelihood facility. The people of the whole city have to live by the mill every year.

Even the smallest stone mill in the city often has to queue for a day or two during peak season.

However, it is not the peak season now, and there is not a single person outside the empty and deserted Shipan Mill. There is only a huge waterwheel, turning slowly in the flow of the river.

Silent Kong Ning thought about what to do next. But at this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded behind him, and a middle-aged man with a stubble face and a bare upper body came from an alley on one side, carrying a small bag of wheat in his hand.

He is the owner of Shipan Mill, Shi Yong.

Seeing Kong Ning standing here on a jujube yellow horse, Shi Yong was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Ning Ye, long time no see, what wind brought you here?"

Kong Ning in Shanlan County in a fast-catching suit, no one dared to be disrespectful. This toleration suit is a symbol of privilege, not to mention the fact that he was equipped with a horse at a young age, and is also quite popular with the county master.

Therefore, Shi Yong showed great enthusiasm.

This looks normal.

Kong Ning moved slightly in his heart.

As soon as he came, this Shi Yong suddenly appeared... Shi Yong, is that the monster hidden in the mill?
