All the evil beasts in the world, I feed on demons and monsters

Chapter 380 Li Fu
Mountain village.

A man surnamed Li, dressed in gray linen clothes, was walking through the woods. He carried a hardwood bow and arrows on his back and a worn leather bag in his hand, which contained some arrows.

At this moment, a hint of joy appeared on his face, and he was holding a gray wild rabbit in his hand.

The man's name was Li Fu, and he was considered one of the best hunters in the village.

The village of Shanshan has a unique location, situated in a mountainous area near the Demon Forest, some distance from the Fuxian Stream. Furthermore, its hard geology makes it unsuitable for farming. During the Southern Han Dynasty, the village's taxes were deducted in the form of animal hides.

With the arrival of the purple rain, no wild animals can be found in the forests within the Southern Han territory. However, venturing into the deep mountains, especially the Demon Forest, while no longer threatened by the purple rain, greatly increases the danger.

Deep in the mountains and forests, there are even man-eating monsters.

However, there was nothing in the village to entertain the distinguished guest, so Li Fu had no choice but to take the risk and venture into the demon forest, risking encountering the purple-blooded monster and other spirits.

Fortunately, he was lucky and soon after entering the deep mountains, he hunted a gray rabbit.

He needed this rabbit to strike up a conversation with that Taoist priest.

Li Fu was much more mature than Yuan San. After all, the able-bodied men in the village, including the butchers, were all under his command, maintaining the village's livelihood.

He had been silently observing the Taoist priest, whose methods were formidable: burning the Purple Demon, collapsing temples, and using ghost carriages to clear the way.

This is a man capable of saving the entire village. Especially considering his behavior towards the villagers that morning, he could conclude that this Taoist priest possessed a compassionate heart.

Previously, when facing the tax officials of the Southern Han, a hot meal of wild game and a plain-colored hide were enough to get the officials to collect the taxes and leave, leaving the village with a "weak, sick, and disabled" label. This is why, even when the Southern Han's ghost soldiers were conscripted, the village at the foot of the mountain was still able to retain a considerable number of laborers.

Now, a rabbit is a bowl of hot meat and vegetables, or an opportunity to communicate.

I will take the village chief and that girl to pay respects to the Taoist priest and find a way for the village to survive!
"Ok?"

When Li Fu reached the woods outside the village, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and his calloused hands immediately gripped the hard bow, the rusty and broken arrows instantly being caught on the copper rings at his fingertips!
There is movement!
At this time, few villagers come out.

Although the purple-blooded monsters outside the village have been eliminated by the rat guards, they are active during the day, and any ordinary person who encounters them will surely die. Even if they come out to cut tree bark, gather mushrooms, or collect clay, it can only be done at night when it is safe.

However, in the direction the arrow was aimed at, two Taoist priests, one tall and one short, walked over from the forest.

The two were dressed in neat Taoist robes. The Taoist in the lead had a long beard and looked to be over forty. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and exuded an air of authority. His cloud-patterned shoes swayed lightly, and his jade belt fluttered, giving him an air of otherworldly elegance.

"what?"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Li Fu immediately put away his bow and arrows, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He's a Taoist priest!

Over the past year, some people have indeed seen Taoists hunting purple beasts at night. Although they did not interact with ordinary people, everyone believed that these Taoists were there to exterminate the purple beast demon.

Li Fu put away his bow and arrows and was about to step forward when he saw the boy beside the Taoist priest suddenly pick up a piece of yellow paper and flick it with his finger!
Whoosh!
The yellow paper turned to ash in an instant, and the ash swirled and transformed into a gust of wind that shot out in a flash!

Li Fu's eyes widened immediately!

With his years of hunting experience and keen eyesight, he managed to turn to the side at the last second!

puff-

But his right arm was pierced through by the wind and exploded! Blood mixed with bone fragments splattered on the branches in the forest. A severed arm lay on the muddy water, a crimson stain.

"Well!"

At this moment, Li Fu gritted his teeth, his pupils were bloodshot, and half of his body was hidden under a tree nearby.

"Why!"

His voice was filled with painful questioning; he was completely bewildered by the boy's sudden attack.

"what?"

The young Taoist was taken aback, then scratched his head and asked, "Master?"

"The speed is too slow, add another 'speed'."

The Taoist priest spoke calmly, as if he hadn't heard Li Fu's question, but instead pointed out the young Taoist's problem.

"got it."

The young Taoist nodded, picked up another piece of yellow paper, and this time, he drew the talisman more slowly.

"go with!"

Whoosh!
As the yellow paper shattered, a sharp whistling sound rang out! Li Fu, behind the tree, sensed danger! He immediately lunged towards the muddy ground ahead!
boom! !

Amidst the flying sawdust, the tree trunk where he had been hiding was blasted open with a hole the size of a human head. The entire trunk cracked and tilted, crashing into the muddy ground beside him!
Wow——!
Splattered mud covered Li Fu's body. He rolled over, took his bow and arrow, and hid behind another tree trunk!

At this moment, he realized that these two Taoist priests wanted his life!

"The speed is still too slow."

The Taoist waved his hand, and the young Taoist immediately bowed his head and retreated. At this moment, the Taoist's eyes beneath his crown and ribbons were devoid of any emotion. He simply looked at the blood that had spilled from Li Fu and said in a low voice, "Your destined cause and effect is to die in the Purple Rain."

"This is destiny, and it is ordained by heaven."

"It was those demons who changed your karma."

"I will correct your mistakes and I will also kill them to avenge you."

Li Fu didn't quite understand, but he knew the visitor meant no good.

"Huh? Uncle Li!"

What's wrong with you!?

Suddenly, a young man who heard the commotion at the village entrance discovered the injured Li Fu. The boy was shocked and immediately ran towards Li Fu.

Li Fu was stunned, and then a chill ran down his spine!
"No, go back!"

"quick--"

Pfft!

A sudden burst of bloodshot veins appeared in Li Fu's eyes, his gaze almost bursting out of his head!

The boy was running, but suddenly his head disappeared! A bright red hue was blasted into a thin mist by the wind under the sunlight, shrouding the emerald green of the forest.

"Hooray! Master, my merit has increased!"

At this moment, the young Taoist priest, with paper ash still scattered in front of him, looked excited!
The Taoist priest calmly said, "Correcting the will of Heaven and sending these poor souls, who have been poisoned by demons, back to their rightful place is naturally a meritorious deed."

As he spoke, the Taoist's eyebrows furrowed, and he said coldly, "These people should have passed away peacefully with Ziyu, but now they have been harmed by demons and can only die a violent death. Their crimes are unforgivable!"

The young Taoist immediately nodded, licked his lips, and bowed, saying, "I will have to trouble you, Master, to correct the will of Heaven and slay the demons. This will surely be a great act of merit!"

"You've done it!"

now!

Li Fu suddenly darted out from behind the tree! He had an arrow stuck in his mouth.

Rust mixed with blood made his bloodshot eyes look like those of a raging beast!

Deng!
He gripped the bow and arrow tightly in his left hand, and the veins on his arm bulged!

Bang!

Those snow-white teeth gripped the nocked arrow and pulled it taut! The sharp bowstring pierced his gums, tearing open his mouth and revealing Li Fu's ferocious gaze!

And just like that, he died.

A living person was killed by the Taoist priest with a simple gesture!
Why? Why is this happening?!

He doesn't understand.

But he was angry, he was unwilling to accept it!
"Uuuuuuuuuuu!!"

Li Fu roared, his teeth breaking one by one, his head snapping back as if drawing a bow!

stab-

Whoosh!
The bright red bowstring snapped open, spraying a cloud of blood! The arrow shot out like a dragon in flight!
The Taoist priest swept his gaze coldly over the arrow, then simply flicked his wrist to catch it. He then affixed a yellow talisman to the arrow and whispered, "Fire, come quickly!"

Whoosh!
The next moment, the arrow turned back at an even faster speed and burst into flames! During its flight, the entire arrow transformed into a crimson line of fire, piercing straight through Li Fu!
boom--!
boom! !

Li Fu's body traversed dozens of meters and crashed directly into the wall outside the village, where he was engulfed and burned by flames!
Do not……

His vision was blurry as he saw two Taoist priests walking towards the village. He could already guess what they were going to do.

Someone please help...

Li Fu's gaze fell on the headless corpse, then on the gray hare... hare?
On his deathbed, he suddenly remembered the purpose of his journey and the Taoist priest of Taiping!

"If you can hear me... please help..."

hum~
As he prayed, lilacs suddenly bloomed all over the wall, extinguishing the fire within him.

"what?"

The Taoist priest immediately stopped and looked towards the village entrance.

A steady sound of footsteps grew closer and closer.
