I’m Being Held Captive by Demons Chapter 8: The greedy magistrate


This decision of the county magistrate gave Kong Ning a headache.

While the Soul Eater's memory is fragmentary, information about the Nightmare is even less. But Kong Ning can also probably outline a brutal, irritable, and terrifying image of a monster.

If the body of the Soul Eater is left behind and the matter is spread, Kong Ning will bet that the Nightmare Ghost will come to the Yamen tonight and kill the Yamen into a river of blood...

Standing in the lobby, Kong Ning looked gloomy and was speechless for a long time.

And such a reaction naturally attracted the attention of everyone present. Kong Ning, who should be happy, why does it look so bad?

The county magistrate said in surprise: "Kong Ning? Do you have anything to say?"

The county magistrate's inquiry awakened Kong Ning.

After Kong Ning regained his senses, he gritted his teeth and made a decision. Regardless of the eyes of the colleagues, Kong Ning said: "Master, my subordinates do have something to report. But this matter is very important..."

Kong Ning didn't say everything, but his eyes meant something.

The county magistrate laughed and said, "Come on, let's chat with this official in the back hall."

In this way, the magistrate took Kong Ning out of the lobby and came to the quiet back hall. And the county magistrate took the initiative to back away, showing considerable reliance on Kongning.

In the end, in the quiet room, only the county master and Kong Ning were left.

The county magistrate, who was in his forties and had gray temples, sat down slowly, sorted out his official uniform, and then said, "Tell me, Kong Ning, what's the matter to report?"

Kong Ning bowed and said, "Master Hui, it's about the monster. When the villain beheaded the monster, he heard the monster shout that his sister would come to seek revenge and kill us all." /

"The villain guesses that if the corpse of the monster is left behind and publicized everywhere, it may bring disaster..."

Kong Ning hesitated.

The county magistrate glanced at him and said, "Then what do you think the corpse of this monster should be handled?"

Kong Ning said: "The best way is to destroy it quietly and block the news so that no one else knows about it."

The county magistrate's face stiffened slightly: "Blocking news... Destroying the corpse... Is there any other way?"

The magistrate looked at Kong Ning with obvious meaning.

He must send this demon's body to the Hejian Mansion and let Kong Ning find a way.

After all, this is a monster! The county magistrate did not want to give up his achievements in beheading a demon.

Seeing this situation, Kong Ning was slightly silent.

The solution he gave was indeed the best solution at present. At the very least, he could delay the time so that the nightmare ghost could not find his enemy for a while. Kong Ning planned to solve the nightmare by himself, trying not to drag the mortals in the yamen in.

But the county magistrate's decision did not exceed Kong Ning's expectations. This official fanatic old man refuses to let go of every political achievement in his hand.

After a long silence, Kong Ning said: "There is another way, that is, I will work together to set up a trap and trick the monster's sister into killing. If both monsters are killed, there will be no monsters. Come back to us for revenge."

Kong Ning's suggestion made the county magistrate's eyes shine.

"Kill another monster?" The old man's attention was focused on this matter.

He immediately smiled and said, "Kong Ning, how sure are you to kill that monster?"

Two years ago, Kong Ning killed a nest of scorpions, and now he has killed a monster... This young hunter seems to be the monster's nemesis, and now he has become the county magistrate's greatest confidence.

Kong Ning looked at the greedy and official-obsessed old man in front of him. He was silent for a few seconds, and sighed: "Not sure, but at least 80%... As long as the lord can order everyone in the yamen to cooperate with me, we will be tonight. Maybe kill the monster."

"Oh? How do you say it?" The magistrate looked at Kong Ning curiously and said, "What will you do?"

Kong Ning said: "Master Hui, this subordinate intends to spread the news that this demon corpse is currently in the Yamen and will be sent to Hejian Mansion tomorrow. It is best to spread it throughout Shanlan County before dark. , let the other monster in the dark know about it."

"Since they are relatives and friends of the dead demon, they will definitely not sit back and watch the corpse be sent to the Hejian Mansion when they hear this news."

"No accident, that monster will come to the county government tonight to grab the body and take revenge on us by the way."

"But because it happened in a hurry, it definitely didn't have time to prepare well. And under the hatred and anger, its reason will be affected. It has no idea that we have set a trap to ambush it."

"We put all the catchers in ambush in the yamen, but on the surface it maintained the same appearance as before, pretending not to know that a monster would come to the door and paralyze the monster."

"When the monster enters our trap, we will immediately attack the monster and kill the monster on the spot!"

The plan that Kong Ning said was the best strategy he could come up with based on the information he currently had.

Although the Nightmare Ghost is brutal and ferocious, he still fears swords and fire, and his strength is not much higher than that of the Soul Eater. As long as the ambush is done properly, even a group of strong men can kill him, not to mention that Kong Ning, who has forty years of demon power, is standing beside him~IndoMTL.com~ At this time, Kong Ning has forty years of demon power, not to mention Flying to the ground, but jumping more than ten feet and smashing boulders with one punch is just leisurely.

He is not a monster with a fragile body like the Nightmare Tapir. He is a martial artist. After 40 years of demon power, his martial power value has skyrocketed. Even if he encounters monsters with powerful physical strength, such as tiger monsters, as long as his cultivation level is comparable, Kong Ning will not be afraid.

And he has obtained the soul-eating demon supernatural powers, and he is not weak in the ghosts and illusions. Whether it's a head-to-head fight or a yin, they're not afraid of nightmare ghosts.

If coupled with the help of many experts in the yamen, it would be no problem to set traps and surround and kill a nightmare ghost who relies on illusions to kill people in dreams.

Although this way, the other arresters in the yamen will definitely take risks.

But...

"The corpses of the two demons..." The county magistrate looked at Kong Ning and smiled, "Okay! I will leave this matter to you! This officer has always trusted you. The officer continues to open his eyes."

The county magistrate smiled kindly and kindly: "As long as tonight I can really kill the remaining demon, protect the people, and make a sunny day for my Shanlan County, this magistrate will promote you to the fast class. Capture the head, let you rule the fast class!"

The county magistrate made a big pie by taking great interest in profits, and he almost threw out the best interests he could give.

In response, Kong Ning could only smile and bow down.

"Thank you, my lord! My subordinates will definitely repay the kindness of my lord!"

In my heart, I was slightly speechless.

This county magistrate is really a master at calling people.

Anyway, the person who went to confront the demon tonight is not him, so of course you can draw a big cake any way you want.

Now I can only hope that no one will die tonight...
