NOVEL FROG Chapter 27: Watching someone die without helping
The smile on the county magistrate's face froze instantly, and his expression became a little awkward. He hurriedly said: "Master, you can't say that. It's better to have it than not, right? Even if it's just a few words, maybe we can find the key clues."
Shen Lang shook his head helplessly, sighed, and ignored the county magistrate. He once again focused his eyes on the book in his hand, trying to find a trace of useful information from the broken records.
Shen Lang was concentrating on studying the book in his hand, and suddenly, a picture of a demon came into his eyes.
The demon had a hideous face and a strange shape. In an instant, some fragments of memory flashed in Shen Lang's mind like lightning.
These memories were fragmented, but Shen Lang intuitively felt that this matter was extremely important.
Shen Lang raised his head suddenly and asked the county magistrate anxiously: "County magistrate, are there any other relevant books?"
The county magistrate was stunned by Shen Lang's sudden question, then frowned and thought for a moment, and said: "Master, I am not sure if there are other relevant books. The collection in this secret room is all the accumulation of this subordinate over the years."
Shen Lang looked at the county magistrate with a firm gaze and said solemnly: "County magistrate, don't worry, as long as I am here, I will protect the safety of the county government. I want to take a good look at these books here, maybe I can find the key clues to deal with high-level monsters."
Hearing this, the county magistrate's face was full of gratitude, and he hurriedly said: "With the words of the immortal master, the subordinate is relieved. Immortal master, just read the books here, and if you need anything, just tell me."
Shen Lang nodded slightly and said: "Thank you, county magistrate."
Then, Shen Lang plunged into the pile of books and read them carefully.
Seeing Shen Lang so focused, the county magistrate left the secret room quietly, for fear of disturbing him.
Shen Lang kept looking for useful information in the book, sometimes frowning, sometimes thinking.
Time passed unknowingly, and the only sound in the secret room was the rustling of Shen Lang turning the pages.
The next day, Shen Lang was still immersed in the sea of books, with a focused expression, not noticing the passage of time at all.
At this time, a servant hurried over and whispered outside the secret room: "Master, the county magistrate invites you to have dinner."
Shen Lang woke up from his dream, slowly put down the book in his hand, got up and walked out of the secret room.
Seeing the county magistrate, Shen Lang could not help but sigh deeply: "Mr. County Magistrate, your library is really complete! There are all kinds of strange and unheard-of records. It really opened my eyes, as if I was in a treasure house of knowledge."
The county magistrate heard this and immediately showed a proud smile on his face, saying: "Master, you are too kind. As the parent official of this area, in order to protect the peace of the people, I naturally have to do everything I can to collect all kinds of useful information and records, no matter how difficult the process is. , and at all costs. "
Shen Lang nodded and said: "These books are of great help to me. I am deeply inspired by the many clues and wonderful ideas in them. Maybe I can really find a great strategy to deal with the high-level monsters and resolve the crisis here. "
The county magistrate smiled and said: "That's good, that's good! Master, please eat first, don't starve yourself. You are our hope, so there must be no mistakes. "
As he said, the county magistrate personally led Shen Lang to the dining room, with a warm smile on his face.
Suddenly, there was a noisy cry from the crowd outside, and the sound seemed to penetrate the sky and shocked people.
Immediately afterwards, there was the roar of the monsters one after another, which was creepy.
Many people were panicked and fled desperately towards the direction of the county government.
A group of people ran towards the county government office in panic, their faces full of fear and despair, crying and shouting: "Help! The monster is coming!"
The county magistrate's face turned pale when he heard the noisy sound.
He hurried to the gate of the county government office and saw the surging crowd. He was afraid that the large number of people would attract more monsters.
So, he shouted to his men: "Drive them out, don't let them in! Not a single one is allowed in!"
The detectives looked at each other and hesitated.
At this time, Shen Lang shouted loudly: "Don't stop them! Let the people in!"
The county magistrate was so angry that he stamped his feet and shouted at Shen Lang with his eyes wide open: "Are you going to kill us? With so many people rushing in, the monsters will definitely chase us, and we will all die then!"
Shen Lang did not retreat, looked directly into the eyes of the county magistrate and said: "Sir, if we turn the people away at this time, what is the difference between us and beasts? As a parent official, how can you ignore the lives of the people!"
The county magistrate was so angry that he trembled all over, his face flushed, and his fists clenched, but he did not dare to get angry at Shen Lang, and could only suppress the anger in his heart.
Shen Lang glanced at the county magistrate and said calmly: "County magistrate, don't worry. I am here, and I will never let this monster hurt the people."
After that, Shen Lang drew out the sword at his waist, and the sword body flashed a cold light in the sun.
His figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot like a ghost in an instant, rushing towards the group of rampaging monsters at an astonishing speed.
Shen Lang's sword style was sharp, and his moves were unpredictable like flowing clouds and water.
The sword in his hand seemed to have life, agile and deadly.
The sword wind whistled, bringing with it waves of chilling cold light, which was like frost and snow in winter, icy and piercing.
Every time the sword was thrust out, it was like a meteor across the night sky, accurately hitting the vital points of the monsters.
Wherever the sword tip reached, blood splashed out like a fountain, dyeing a large area of land red.
The monsters roared in pain, but could not resist Shen Lang's swift and deadly attack.
The people and constables on the side were stunned, their eyes wide open, their mouths wide open enough to fit an egg, their faces full of disbelief and shock.
The people even forgot to cry, just stared at Shen Lang's figure, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God! What kind of martial arts is this!"
"The immortal master is so powerful, it's like a god of war descending to earth!"
The constables also clenched their weapons in their hands.
Shen Lang shouted loudly: "You evil beasts, today is your death!"
As his sword style became more and more powerful, every swing of the sword was accompanied by an unstoppable momentum.
His posture was as agile as a dragon, and the sword shadows were intertwined like a net, covering the monsters one by one.
The monsters tried to resist, but they seemed so powerless under Shen Lang's fierce attack.
They pounced on Shen Lang with their fangs and claws, but were cleverly avoided by Shen Lang, and then they were greeted with a fatal blow.
Soon, all the monsters were killed by Shen Lang.
The last monster roared in despair under Shen Lang's sword, but this could not change its fate.
