Liaozhai Great Sage

"Sure enough, it's the tree demon making trouble."

Li Xiuyuan said with a serious face: "Master helped the tree demon that day because the master remembered that it was not easy for the tree demon to practice for thousands of years, and he brought incense to the temple, so he was kind to help the tree demon and saved its life. "

"As everyone knows, Master's action that day was like a farmer saving a poisonous snake. If the tree demon was really a kind tree demon, he would not have watched Qingmei girl fall to death in front of the tree without being indifferent that day. Even if the pilgrims are not saved, do you still expect it to save the people after it becomes a god?"

"The tree demon has no good thoughts in his heart, but only enjoys the incense blindly. Even if he becomes a god, he is also an evil god. I insisted on cutting down that day, not only because of a moment of anger, but also because I wanted to solve this scourge. Unfortunately, the master didn't understand me at that time. "

Master Liao Kong sighed again; "Young Master Li is very true, so the cause sown in the future and the fruit reaped today, the old monk made a big mistake at that time, and now nine out of ten monks in Lanruo Temple are dead, and the rest All of them escaped, Lanruo Temple has been deserted within a month, and the incense has been cut off, this is what the Buddhists call karma."

Li Xiuyuan said: "It's not too late to make up for it. I won't just sit idly by when there is such an evil monster in Guobei County's territory, but don't worry, Master Liao Kong. I will kill that tree demon tomorrow." To solve it, I will definitely not let it kill another person, but it is a pity that I got the news a little late, and I couldn't detect it at the first time, otherwise, I would never let this tree demon kill so many people."

"Everything is fate, and it is also calamity. I can rest assured that there is Mr. Li today."

Master Liaokong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, with a look of relief on his face.

"Master Liaokong is polite, this is something I have agreed to before." Li Xiuyuan said.

After he left Lanruo Temple last time, he was ready to go to Lanruo Temple to destroy demons again, but he was delayed because of various things and because he didn't receive any news.

Master Liaokong clasped his hands again: "Amitabha, now that I have fulfilled my wish, it is time to atone for my sins. This sin can only be washed away after suffering the suffering of three lifetimes of reincarnation."

After finishing speaking, the already somewhat illusory figure became more and more ethereal.

It was not visible in the dim sky before, but now it is more and more obvious.

After only a moment passed, Master Liao Kong had completely disappeared before his eyes.

The only concern is gone, and the tree demon of Lanruo Temple has also been handed over to Li Xiuyuan, so this obsession is gone.

"Ah~! No, it's gone."

Seeing Master Kong disappear out of thin air, the guards by the mansion, Xiaodie and Du Chunhua following behind all exclaimed in shock.

"It seems that Master Kong also died at the hands of that tree demon?" Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.

A thousand-year-old monster, if he practiced self-denial, it would be fine, and would have little impact on the common people, but once he became evil, he would not be so easy to deal with.

He can be considered to have seen many great monsters with thousands of years of Taoism.

Lord Heishan, Heshouwujing, Wujiang Dragon King, Huagu... Except for Heshouwujing, each of the remaining big monsters has blood on their hands, and they are burdened with countless killings. The harm is enough to harm a county or a city , and their Taoism is so high that it is difficult for the gods in the sky to kill them, and they may even be defeated by these thousand-year-old monsters.

Evil can triumph over good.

"Young master, young master, the old monk who disappeared just now is the Master Liaokong who boarded in Lanruo Temple with his servants last time?"

Xiaodie timidly hid behind Li Xiuyuan, she was rather timid, obviously a little afraid of these ghosts and ghosts.

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "It's Master Liaokong from Lanruo Temple. Now Master Liaokong has passed away. What he said just now is that his obsession has not dissipated. He asked me to go to Lanruo Temple to eliminate demons and restore peace here."

Xiao Die said again: "Master, there are monsters in Lanruo Temple, what should we do after that when we burn incense for Miss?"

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly and said, "Since there is a monster making trouble, it is natural to destroy it. There is no need to worry about Qingmei's affairs, I have a sense of proportion."

"It's getting late, let's go back, the family dinner is almost over."

He didn't stop much, but immediately returned to the mansion with two servant girls, Xiaodie and Du Chunhua.

Even if you want to get rid of the demon, you have to wait until tomorrow to act.

Chapter 234 Xiahou Swordsman

The next morning.

Li Xiuyuan got up early.

"Master, why did you get up so early today?"

Lying on the couch, the sweet Du Chunhua curled up in her young master's arms, felt the emptiness around her, and woke up in a daze. Seeing that Li Xiuyuan had already got up at this time, she immediately asked curiously.

"I'm going out for a while, maybe I'll come back later, if my father asks, please tell me a lie." Li Xiuyuan said.

Du Chunhua hurriedly said: "Do you want your slaves to follow?"

"No, I'm going to do something, it's inconvenient for you to follow." Li Xiuyuan strode out after finishing speaking.

He was ready, went to the yard and took out the dragon horse picture from the ghost king's bag.

"Hey~!"

A white light flew out from the picture of the dragon and horse, and landed on the ground, turning into a pure white and handsome thousand-mile horse. This kind of thousand-mile horse can only be compared with the extraordinary horse, and it can only appear in myths and legends.

"Go, take me out for a while." Li Xiuyuan got on his horse and gave orders.

The dragon horse raised its head and neighed, stepped on its four hooves, jumped up, and flew directly to the roof, and then stepped on the roof, as if flying, over the courtyard wall, and headed out of the county.

Fortunately, it was still early, and there were not many active people in the city, and the dragon horse galloping and flying was rarely seen.

Occasionally, some people see it, maybe they just feel dazzled.

The purpose of Li Xiuyuan's trip is very simple to go to Lanruo Temple to eliminate demons.

And in order not to worry his parents, he had to go alone without even a guard.

To deal with the thousand-year-old monster, the guards have become a burden instead, and there are no ferocious beasts and bandits near Lanruo Temple, they are just haunted by monsters, there is no danger that needs guards.

Ryoma's speed is very fast, almost galloping.

Not long after, a quaint temple in the distance has appeared in front of us.

It was the end of autumn, and the steps leading to the mountain gate of the temple were covered with withered grass and leaves, showing a somewhat deserted look, obviously no one had cleaned it for a long time.

After the monks in this temple fled to death, this place has been completely deserted as Master Kong said, and even the vermilion lacquer gate in front of the temple is slightly half open at the moment, swinging with the wind from time to time, sending out Crunching sound.

"Lanruo Temple".

Three brass plaques with large characters hang on the mountain gate, as new as ever.

"It's really abnormal. There's not even insects screaming." Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he walked up the steps towards Lanruo Temple.

Entered Lanruo Temple.

The withering and desolate air in the temple is even heavier. The Zen room and the aisle are covered with dead leaves and weeds have grown. What's more, many of the floor tiles on the ground have been destroyed, revealing a pothole, some The roots of the trees did not know where they came from, and they covered the walls and the roof densely.

The roots of the trees are everywhere, as if covering the entire temple.

"It's really unbelievable that a temple full of incense has become like this in less than half a year." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.

Fortunately, Lanruo Temple had a good foundation before. Although it looks like a defeat, most of the temple buildings are still intact. With a little care, it is indeed a good place for travelers to stay. In addition, it is next to the road. , it's no wonder that pedestrians are constantly attracted.
