Three days later, Zhang Luochen finally returned to Juxianzhai.

Looking at the familiar gates, high walls, old houses, and willows and flowers in the courtyard, I felt a little like I was going home. Compared to living in a tent in the wild, walking on mountain roads, wading through water, living in such a large courtyard, sleeping until I wake up naturally every day, and there is no work pressure, it is already a rare and comfortable life.

"The Immortal Master is back!" Seeing Zhang Luochen's figure, the big bull yelled at the yard, hurriedly opened the door and moved the spoils brought back by Zhang Luochen and Yang Baichuan in one after another. Although Zhang Luochen put most of the things in his backpack, Yang Baichuan, as a participant, also had his own spoils, and there were a lot of them.

Zhang Luochen first asked Daniu Erhu to boil a large pot of water, and took a hot bath to relax.

Then he changed into clean clothes and sat in the lobby of the main house. While drinking tea, he told the old Taoist Hong Zhouzi about his experiences over the past few days. Hong Zhouzi also had a serious expression when he heard it.

"I didn't expect that this monster would get involved in the bandits and cause trouble for the world. Thanks to your participation this time, you participated. Otherwise, the Captain Liu and the soldiers who accompanied the warriors would suffer."

Zhang Luochen nodded, this was correct.

The old Taoist said again, "I didn't expect that you, young master, are not only good at magic, but also able to detect the secrets of heaven. You can calculate the future and know the wolf demon's place in advance. It's really admirable."

Zhang Luochen thought to myself, can I say that I was fooling around? I was just planning to have some experience with him, but I didn't expect that - he couldn't explain, so he just smiled and said nothing.

But he thought of a question he had before.

"Speaking of this, Taoist priest, do you know what happened to the wolf monster and the wolf monster? Why is one wolf with a human shape but full of fur, and the other big body cannot walk like a human, which is the same as a wild beast? Are these two wolf monsters?"

After hearing this question, Hong Zhouzi showed a strange look, "Doesn't you understand the classification of demons and monsters?

Zhang Luochen nodded, "I don't know much. When I came out of the mountain, my master told me that I would kill all those who do evil (red name). He did not explain the distinction between these demons and ghosts in detail, so I didn't ask much."

Hong Zhouzi was speechless for a while and thought to himself that what he said was really domineering. Kill all those who do evil. Mr. Zhang’s master is probably also a master who hates evil.

"The young master is indeed a master who hates evil. This is actually true. Anyone who does evil, no matter whether it is a monster or not, will be killed.

However, for ordinary exorcists, it is very necessary to have some detailed understanding of monsters. After all, we ordinary people do not have the magical magic like you, the young master. You must figure out the background of the monsters to facilitate the right medicine. I am not talented, so I have some research on this. If the young master does not dislike it, I will explain it to the young master."

Zhang Luochen nodded, indicating that he could listen with scruples.

The old Taoist started to explain.

Although people often describe evil monsters they encounter on weekdays as monsters, in fact, these monsters hit completely different things.

The so-called ghosts are easier to understand. They are all evil things transformed by dead people, lonely ghosts, and undead evil ghosts. They are all listed here, and zombies and other things can be counted as numbs.

The so-called demon is not a certain monster, and there is no concept of a demon in this world. Demon is actually a title that specifically describes those terrible existences. Once they fall into evil, or go into devils, or fall into madness, they are also called demons.

The so-called murderer is actually human in essence. Ogres are just people who eat humans. If tigers and jackals eat humans, they will not be called ogres. It is common for wild beasts to eat humans, but cannibalism is an extremely evil thing, so they are called demons.

Similarly, if a monster does too much evil, it can also be called a demon. If it is just a rabbit spirit and steals the farmer's radish every day, it will naturally not be called a demon.

This ghost and demon are easy to distinguish, but the meaning of monsters is more vague.

The so-called monster is also easier to understand. It is that things other than humans (mainly various animals) absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and cultivate magical powers, which is the so-called monster.

But how should we divide the fairies and monsters?

According to Hong Zhouzi, the division between the two is actually not very strict, but generally speaking, there is still a default difference.

The most common classification method is to look at its ability to transform.

In the process of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the demon will accumulate energy and produce inner elixirs, and the body will also begin to gradually change.

Generally speaking, this change will eventually transform into the form of human beings. This is because human beings are the best form to cultivate immortals. If the demon race wants to go further, cultivate into a demon immortal, and obtain great supernatural powers, they must take this step.

Therefore, the most successful transformation is to completely change into a human form, which looks undoubtedly from humans. As long as the original form does not appear, ordinary people cannot distinguish it.

However, generally speaking, the transformation of most demon races cannot be 100% perfect. They will more or less retain some animal characteristics, such as tails, ears, eyes, etc., but through some tricks, they can also cover up this small flaw and hide themselves in front of humans.

This type of monster is the so-called fairy.

If the transformation is relatively failed and the body characteristics are retained too much, it can only be considered a monster, because it is not human or beast, but it looks very "strange".

Like the Black Wind Tai Sui, it barely reshaped her personal form, but retained a body of black hair, and even her facial features were still a wolf's face. This is a typical failure in transformation, and it was a big failure, so it was naturally considered a monster.

The giant wolf is probably lacking in intelligence and has not even understood the concept of transformation. The energy absorbed does not transform into the human form, but simply increases its body shape. It may become very strong in a short period of time, but it is difficult to cultivate more magical powers. In the long run, there is no possibility of going further. This kind of energy may not even be considered a monster, and can only be regarded as a "monster".

There have been many rumors about strange beasts in the past, such as four-horned deer, pigs weighing thousands of pounds, etc., which are actually all of them.

After listening to Hong Zhouzi's explanation, Zhang Luochen suddenly realized that, thinking that's the case, this thing is quite rigorous, and it's like the game settings.

It seems that this Black Wind Tai Sui and his giant wolf, who are not a brother or a couple, are not high-level monsters. One fails to transform, and the other does not know how to transform.

This was the moment when Zhang Luochen felt a sense of urgency again.

A little wolf demon who failed to transform and a wolf monster who could not even transform almost killed his life. It seems that his strength is still a little weak in this world. If he can't reach the level of doing whatever he wants, it won't work, so he still has to continue to improve his strength.

"Thank you for your answer to your doubts. I didn't expect that there would be such a saying - someone has come to me to subdue demons in the past few days?"

Hong Zhouzi shook his head, "No one has come to find the young master, don't worry, young master, this Longguan County is a densely populated and prosperous place. Demons and monsters usually only appear in the deep mountains and forests, deserted villages and communities, and it is not so easy to encounter."
