What did I do before I lost my memory?
Chapter 22 1 big and 1 small
If the monster knew that he had an extra lead/fire/cable for his opponent, and it turned out that Yao Lian refused to go shopping in the street, he would either vomit blood or vomit in anger.
Qiu Rong, a seven-foot rabbit, was dragged into the house by a six-foot sword, and the hair on his tail fell off the ground because of his grievances. He lost seven children, and still can't find where his old nest is, so let's not get involved."
"It doesn't matter, didn't you rabbits have been eaten by him a lot, let the brave and fearless Lord Zhujian avenge you." It is also carried by Zhujian alone, and he can please some good things and recover sooner.
"You can't say that... Carnivorous animals like tigers and leopards, as well as humans, eat a few rabbits. It's normal. We demons can't take revenge because of this. Excessive killing will affect the foundation of practice and be punished by heaven."
Zhu Jianruo realized something: "That is to say, the monsters are only targeting human beings, and eating your rabbits is just to fill their stomachs?"
"So far it looks like that."
"It's the mortals who hurt us the most!" Ah Qiu added while hiding outside the door, and when Zhu Jian heard the movement and turned around, he quickly ran away to decoct the medicine.
Qiu Rong said helplessly: "The human beings in the nearby villages were also forced. I went back to the familiar households to exchange rice. I found out that all the newborns in the village went to relatives' homes outside the city to seek refuge. Only the young and strong were left. The man stayed at home because he was afraid that thieves would take advantage of the chaos.
At the beginning, the monster only stole newborn babies, and after four or five mortals ran away with their own dolls, he had nothing to steal, and then even three or four-year-olds were not spared. "
Yao Lian listened silently, not expressing his opinions casually. While listening, he took a small sip to blow away the heat of the rice paste, and then took a sip comfortably. After Qiu Rong finished telling what he knew, the room fell into a strange silence. Yao Lian raised his head suspiciously, and saw all four eyes in the room staring at him, and a pair of red eyes embedded in the crack of the door, also hooking him in the same way.
"..."
He pressed his temples dumbfoundedly, and analyzed: "Did you notice Doctor Qiu's words? It's either 'stealing' or 'stealing', but as we all know, the style of most monster races has always been open robbery. Do you know what this means? "
"What does this mean?" Zhu Jian turned the question to Qiu Rong, and Qiu Rong paused for a while, eager to learn and returned the question respectfully to Yao Niang: "What does this mean?"
"It means that this monster is not capable enough to snatch their children from human beings in an open manner. No one has seen his face, and no one knows his race. One is because he is cunning, and the other is that he dare not exposed to public view.
Judging from his current expansion of the scope to three- and four-year-old children, can we speculate that age is not the key point, and he only targets young children because young children are better controlled than adults?Do you know what that means again? "
"Does it mean that if he is in a hurry, he is likely to take risks in the next stage, and the adult men in the village will not be spared by that time." Qiu Rong listened attentively and made associations very cooperatively, while Zhu Jian was twitching. With the corners of his lips pursed, he impatiently stepped forward and rubbed Yao Yao's dragon horns, "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense."
"What you're talking about is an ideal situation. It's based on the fact that sacrifices to extraordinary people are impossible. If this is the case, we don't need to deal with it at all. The monsters are so targeting the nearby villages that they would rather be hunted and killed than hide around. If you are willing to leave, it is nothing more than a cycle of karma, and the retribution is not good."
Qiu Rong had an intuition that Yao Lian would not say anything good next time, when he saw the person on the bed suddenly looking directly at him, he couldn't help pricking up his ears vigilantly, "If, if not?"
"If there is no limit, and he can't control human men, then he is likely to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, and turn to attack other nearby races, such as your rabbit demon's baby."
"..." Qiu Rong fell silent for a while, and Yao Niang added with drooping eyes: "Although these are just my reasonable speculations, it is best to ask your clansmen to strengthen their vigilance in the next few days, Doctor Qiu, in case In case, you'd better go to the village where the baby was lost and inquire about it, and see what happened before the first incident, so that we can further speculate what the monster's purpose is."
"No problem!" When it comes to the safety of his family members, Qiu Rong is of course full of energy. A Qiu listened to the general idea outside the door. go."
The white rabbit whose thigh was injured also woke up slowly in the corner of the bed, and turned into a girl with the upper body of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old human child and the lower body of a rabbit. Help, if there is a reason for that monster, I will definitely help him, so that these hateful mortals will suffer!"
After hearing this, Yao Lian couldn't help laughing out loud, and silently lamented the white rabbit demon's youthful vengeance, "What are you two going to do? You can't even transform into a human form."
"No, I don't want to take revenge on you." The girl stared around with her red eyes, and finally stared desperately at the person who was the worst person to mess with, "My lord, I think you are the most powerful here, you Can you teach me some disguise spells? Let me go to the mortal realm."
Zhujian was suddenly named, and he was completely confused. He was sitting on the edge of the bed and was seriously thinking about why the topic became more and more distorted?
He pulled Qiu Rong into the house to treat Yao Lian's illness, so that Yao Lian could go to the town to buy him sword tassels, how did it turn out that Qiu Rong went to the village to ask questions, and Yao Lian continued to lie on the bed to recuperate?
"No. I'm not right, Yao Niang, this—"
The female rabbit demon is one of the rare ones who dared to lift the beard of Zhujian. She persevered and begged: "Master Xianjun, with your supernatural powers, there is no way you can't do this, please."
"Let's go play, get out!" It's a pity that Zhu Jian has no mercy at all, he avoids the hand of the little white rabbit who is reaching out to grab his clothes in disgust, takes the rice soup in Yao Niang's hand and replaces it with a pungent smell "Yao Niang, who asked you to fool Qiu Rong away with a few words? Qiu Rong don't listen to him, don't run around, just stay honest and treat him. I will ask the people in the village for you. .”
"It's just you?" Yao Yao raised his eyebrows, it was rare for him to have such a vivid expression, and he gave all of his expressions to the sword demon in front of him, "I'm afraid I won't be able to ask anything, maybe I'll be so angry just asking a few words chopped."
He looked across the bamboo gorge and landed on the little girl with a broken leg in the corner of the bed. It was interesting to see her puffy look, "Your name is Tuantuan?"
The female rabbit raised her eyelids, her red eyes were crystal clear, "Ang."
"If you or A Qiu really want to go to the village, I have a way." Yao Niang pointed to the bamboo gorge and said, "This fairy has a storage bag with a blue ribbon in it, which is tied around his wrist. I can make you as big as the palm of your hand, but I didn't store much mana in it before, and it can last for four hours at most, but it will be enough for the two of you to let Qiu Rong take it out once. .”
"..." "..."
Tuantuan and A Qiu looked at each other, raised their hands frantically and shouted: "I'll go!"
Zhu Jian "snatched" the storage bag away, and before he had time to look through the contents, he found the streamer in Yao Niang's mouth, and said in admiration: "Okay, Yao Yaolong Lord, there are many good things. "
"...Don't call me Lord Long."
"Still can't recognize the reality?" Zhujian Shaoqing took out the green ribbon from the storage bag, and he immediately showed a malicious smile to Yao Niang, who had just summoned up the courage to drink the bitter and suffocating wine. Medicinal juice, forcibly frightened by this smile, shivered down the spine, Yao Yao retreated vigilantly from the bed, but Zhu Jian grabbed his hand, and the next second the streamer tied his wrist uncompromisingly.
Ever since Master Guanyue put chains on his wrists, causing him to be dug out of the demon pills by the Wanjie disciples with bare hands, Yao Lian hated all these things trapped on his wrists. He clenched his left hand quickly and squeezed hard Pulling back, he gritted his teeth and said, "Stop!"
A black rope pierced into the flesh appeared on Zhujian's neck in an instant, and the more he struggled, the tighter it was, the veins protruding all over his neck, "...you actually fucked me! This thing...isn't it just once sexual!"
"Hmph." Yao Yao slightly relaxed the invisible rope on his left hand, and asked while Zhu Jian was covering his throat and coughing loudly: "What do you want to tie this ribbon for me? You don't like being forced, the same as me I don't like it either."
When everyone thought that Zhu Jian was going to start a killing spree, he seemed to be moved by Yao Lian's last words, and after comparing his heart to his heart, he didn't get angry immediately. He coughed and stared at Yao Lian bitterly and said: Put you in my sleeve when you get smaller, and I will take you to the village to inquire about news."
"..."
Yao Lian hadn't thought about this method, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was better. After all, the so-called attacking the rabbit clan was just his family's words, and the monster's next whereabouts were more likely to go to the village to continue stealing human dolls.
Ask Qiu Rong to inquire about the news. In case of encountering a monster face to face, or encountering a vicious and difficult mortal, it is still not safe to come from Zhujian.After all, if you retreat from the bamboo stream, you can turn your soul into a sword and escape, and if you advance, you can fight with your sword. As for Qiu Rong, you can only run away in tears or scream for mercy.
Thinking up to this point, Yao Nian nodded and said: "Alright."
Zhu Jian was taken aback when he heard the words, and then rushed onto the edge of the bed and asked loudly: "What did you say? Did you agree? Did you actually agree?"
Contrary to Zhu Jian's surprise and joy, Tuantuan and A Qiu both showed disappointed expressions, patting the bed with both hands, and almost sighed to the sky.Yao Lian put the medicine bowl on the top of the bamboo stream, "Well, I agree, if you have any ideas in the future, you have to ask me first, and you are not allowed to do such things that are directly in my hands."
Can Zhujian agree?Certainly not, he hummed casually to get rid of the trouble, then returned the medicine bowl to A Qiu, and then vigorously slapped Qiu Rong's rabbit tail, "Qiu Rabbit, where's the treatment for today? Hurry up, It’s best to heal him right away, tomorrow I’m going to take Yao Niang to help your clan find out about the enemy’s situation.”
"Ah, oh." Qiu Rong didn't care about the painful tip of his tail, and sat beside Yao Lian with his hands in his hands.
"I'm sorry, Doctor Qiu."
"No trouble, no trouble. Since Xianjun finally planned this way, I will use up my demon power to heal you today. However, I have to rely on Zhujian Xianjun for the night watch."
"No problem." Zhu Jian fully agreed that he would wrap it on him, but in the end he slept more soundly than anyone else in the middle of the night.
Last night he was able to survive the whole night in good spirits, thanks to Qiu Rong talking with him, but tonight everyone is asleep, Qiu Rong is exhausted, the whole person almost passed out on the bed, bored After counting thousands of stars below, he also dozed off facing the moon after a while.
Amid all the silence, a tiny figure emerged from the grass. It was completely submerged in the darkness, except for a pair of long and narrow eyes that glowed with a faint green light in the night. It looked like a ghost. It waited quietly for a while. Yes, take a look at the dozing old donkey under the shed, and then probe quietly to confirm the man in the yard who seems to have fallen asleep and who is the most threatening to him.
But this look made it tremble in fright. There was no one in the yard at all. The black shadow realized that something was wrong, and it quickly hid in the grass without looking back.If it slowed down by another half a second, the domineering sword energy that followed would surely cut off all of its forelimbs.
Before the withered grass stopped shaking, Zhujian walked out from under the eaves with a cold face. He looked at the remaining sword qi pit on the ground, and slowly narrowed his eyes. night.
"...You run fast."
■
The next morning, when Yao Yao just woke up, he was pulled up by Qiu Rong again. No matter how Yao Yao refused repeatedly because he was concerned about his health, Qiu Rong wanted to heal him again with his remaining demon power with a livid face.
It was only when Yao Lian got out of bed and drank porridge that he realized what happened. It turned out that Zhujian found a suspicious person ambushing near the hut in the middle of the night. Qiu Rong was restless when he found out early in the morning. Yao Lian is cured, so that Zhujian can leave earlier and go to the village to investigate.
"Didn't you really see it in your dream?" Yao Niang picked up a piece of dried salted radish that A Qiu sent for porridge, and Zhu Jian snatched it from between his chopsticks with a cold snort, "Go eat your porridge, don't talk. "
After this treatment, Yao Lian obviously felt light and healthy. Not only did he no longer feel pain in his abdomen, but his appetite also increased a lot. No matter how hard it was to fill his stomach with food such as rice cereal and porridge, he drank several bowls in a row. feel hungry.
The opposite of Yao Li is the kind-hearted Doctor Qiu who is concerned about the country and the people. He is like an old pagoda tree about to go west. After the treatment, his face is dry and sallow. Sleep on the bed and sit on the chair for him.
Even though he was so exhausted, before he died, Qiu Rong still worriedly said: "Xianjun, please make sure to find out clearly, and save our Manshan Rabbit Clan from the fire and water."
"Don't be so nervous." Yao Niang was dumbfounded by Qiu Rong's serious attitude. He tucked in the quilt and covered Doctor Qiu's burly body. "It's just a black shadow the size of a cat or a dog, maybe What about stray animals?"
He still wanted to comfort him a few more words, but Zhu Jian, who had been waiting impatiently, grabbed his wrist, twisted it around and tied it into a tight knot. Yao Yao felt his whole body lighten suddenly, and all the objects around him instantly changed. It was so huge, and the ground under his feet was soft and shaking, he couldn't help half kneeling down to stabilize his figure.
"It's really getting smaller, it's so fun!!!" Tuantuan, who came to Qiu Rong's house early in the morning, exclaimed in surprise. Hongyue's eyeballs turned straight at him, and Tuantuan breathed out curiously, and he was immediately overturned and fell into the gap between the index finger and middle finger of Zhujian.
"Don't mess around!" Yao Lian put his face on the ground seriously, he tore away a few strands of messy hair hanging from the dragon's horns, stretched out his small hands not much bigger than fingernails from his cuffs, and straightened the hem of his clothes in a serious manner. Zhu Jian lifted the back of his neck, the other party's dark eyes narrowed into narrow lines, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, "It's really interesting."
Yao Lian uncomfortably pulled the front flap that strangled his throat, moved his feet while shaking back and forth, and said in a low voice, "Let me stay on your shoulder."
"Okay." Zhu Jian threw Yao Niang to the side of his neck briskly, then turned around and waved goodbye to the two rabbits in the house.After Yao Lian fell to the ground, he crawled forward clutching the skirt of his clothes with his small hands, and finally got into his collar before Zhu Jian went out.
Yao Lian found a wrinkle between the outer robe and the middle coat, patted it and put himself in it, with his feet on his collarbone, his hands on his shoulders, his posture was a little awkward, but he couldn't find any other better way.
As soon as Fang opened the door, the cold air outside the house poured straight into the neckline, Zhu Jian didn't notice it with his face up to the sky, but Yao Lian's little face was pale from the cold, so he quickly bent down and hooked his waist, hiding himself tightly.
I haven't seen him for a few days, but Zhujian is still using the same method that he showed when he was escaping on Junhu Island - the ape rushing to the sky and the earth. Cover the small bag protruding from the neckline with your palm, and when you get outside the entrance of the village, you will only have one breath left when you bow your head again.
Zhujian quickly put the person in his palm, and took a handful of morning dew from the young leaves beside him and sprinkled it on his face.Yao Niang's head was dizzy, his body was full of suffocation, and he opened his mouth to bite Zhu Jian's finger.
"Hey, Immortal Yaoyao! You are an Immortal! How can an Immortal bite someone!" Zhu Jian exaggeratedly ouched, but before he finished speaking, another man came from behind the short slope they used to hide their figures. shouted: "Ouch! How dare you bite! Let go of your mouth! If you don't let go of your mouth, I will beat you!"
Yao Lian and Zhu Jian looked at each other, one of them let go quickly, and ordered the other to put the person back on his shoulder.Zhu Jian quietly took two steps forward, looking at the situation on your road at the entrance of the village.
There were three men of different heights, thin, fat and short, surrounded a young girl of cardamom age, they seemed to be vying for the oiled paper bag in the girl's arms, and the girl was not as strong as the man, so she had no choice but to bite one of them to death His arms and gums were bleeding and he would not let go.
The men didn't show mercy just because it was a woman. The man who was bitten kicked her belly hard, while his companion kicked her back. The woman couldn't hold back and fell to the ground with a scream. She endured the pain He quickly crawled to the oiled paper bag with his elbows, curled up to protect it tightly with his body, and would rather be punched and kicked by the men than relax.
"I know how to steal, I know how to steal! Such a big girl, her hands and feet are so dirty, no wonder she can't get married, whoever marries you will be unlucky!"...
The muffled sound of fists and fists echoed in the open space, but the postures of the two peeking behind the slope did not change. After a while, Yao Lian asked, "...Aren't you going to help her?"
Hearing this, Zhu Jian hummed, and asked strangely: "Who am I going to help? A man or a woman?"
"……never mind."
"It's definitely something to hear from your tone, say it!"
Yao Yao sighed, "Save that girl, and then send her home. With the relationship of a lifesaver, it is convenient to get the truth out of her mouth."
"...Okay." Zhujian did as he said, and he jumped out from behind Po. As a result, within the time they were talking, the three men had already finished beating and swearing and left, while the girl wiped her face with the back of her hand. With the mud on her face, holding the crumpled and torn oil paper on the ground, she actually showed a smile, and she quickly trot out of the village happily.
"Follow!" Yao Yao patted the mount under him, and Zhu Jian immediately followed the girl like a shadow, following her all the way, watching the little girl make a big circle, and finally stepped into the ruined temple outside the village. middle.
The back of the bamboo gorge was stuck in front of the stone lion lacking an eye and a nose in front of the temple, quietly showing half of its head and looking through the door, only to see that the girl suddenly became restrained after entering the temple gate, her steps slowed down, and she was still walking. Deliberately lowering her thin voice, she whispered: "Are you there?...I stole...I bought roast chicken, you...do you want to eat it?"
Suspecting that he couldn't see clearly standing on Zhujian's shoulder, Yao Yao turned around and pulled his long hair, and jumped onto Zhujian's head with a clever effort.
The girl's question was not answered, so she was not discouraged, and continued to coax in a soft tone: "Delicious roast chicken," she swallowed first, and the swallowing sound was a bit loud, when did the girl Blushing with shame, he muttered: "...I'll leave the legs for you to eat, and I'll eat the neck, okay?"
Finally, there was movement in the shadows at this moment, a dark fox emerged from behind the ashes-covered Bodhisattva statue, with light blue pupils peaceful and steady, just quietly looking at the little fox in front of him who was trying his best to please him. girl.
"...You are still there, are you eating?"
Outside the temple, Zhujian grabbed Yaoyao on top of his head violently, squatted down and completely covered himself behind the stone lion, and said in a breathy voice: "That's it! I saw such a big four-clawed animal last night! "
Yao Lian was grasped by Zhu Jian firmly in his palm with a calm face, and he said without love: "Then what are you waiting for, go and kill it."
"...I'm not sure, what if I startle the snake?"
"..." When he should be decisive, he is not calm, when he should be calm, he is impulsive, Yao Yao really wants to kill this dead sword spirit that has caused him countless 'sweet' little troubles, "Do you think this fox is normal?"
"unusual."
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"..."
The girl tore off a chicken leg with oiled paper and pushed it in front of the fox. The chicken skin was crispy and the chicken was soft and rotten. It pushes back under the girl's feet.
Such a beautiful scene was broken by a hateful sword spirit at the next moment. The bamboo stream suddenly appeared behind the fox as if walking out of the air. The plan to shoot down the first shot was completed, but Zhujian grabbed the back of the fox's neck with one hand, and then easily lifted it up.
Zhujian: "..."
fox:"……"
girl:"……"
Yao Niang: "..."
The atmosphere in the temple was very stagnant, the fox was caught by Zhujian without any struggle, the girl also stood there dumbfounded and did not react, Yao Yao was vigilant about deceit around, Zhujian looked at the fox for a while, and suddenly frowned and said: "Is it that simple? How can you, a baby-stealing fox, be so weak?"
"No, it's not! It's not a fox!" The girl shouted quickly. She knew that Zhu Jian was not an ordinary person, so she looked at him in fear, but tried not to run away. "It's just an ordinary dog!"
"Dog...dog?" Zhu Jian teased me with a full face. "Then tell me, why do ordinary dogs hide in this kind of place, and they don't bark when they see you? And they know how to give you the roast chicken?" eat?"
When she found out that Zhujian didn't hit her as soon as the men in the village saw her, the girl became courageous immediately, and she retorted sharply: "Because it's so good! In our East Country, a dog with silver fur is a symbol of auspiciousness. If you dare to hurt it, you will go to jail!"
Although Zhujian didn't understand the rules of this country, he knew something was wrong when he heard this, "Auspicious? Silver fur? Dog? This is obviously a black fox, okay?"
"Silver! The first time I saw it was silver! It's just stained with dust!"
Seeing that the topic was getting more and more crooked, Yao Niang hurriedly stuck behind Zhu Jian's ear and whispered: "Ask her if she knows about the missing baby in the village."
"Oh, girl, do you know about the missing baby in the village? You answer me well, and I'll return this silly fox to you if you answer well." Zhu Jian played the second half of the sentence freely, and shook it as he spoke. Shaking the fox under his hands, the latter opened a pair of faint blue animal eyes, his limbs were limp and drooping, neither struggling nor screaming, almost like a plush puppet made of fox fur.
Yao Yao unconsciously glanced over at the corner of his eyes, and was surprised to find that the fox's eyes were on him.
"Of course I know. Even the people in the town know about such a big event. Everyone suspects that monsters are in trouble. The village raised money and found several Taoist priests to exorcise the evil spirits. They also hired many hunters to go to the mountains to make traps. It's of no use."
"Then do you recall any strange things that happened in the village before the first baby was lost? It can be big or small, but it never happened."
The girl suddenly said, "You are also Taoist priests who come to catch demons, right! The Taoist priests who came here have asked this question several times, but there is nothing strange about it. There is no red rain in the sky, and there is no strange light... ...Master Daoist, return the dog to me, it is so pitiful for it to be hung by you like this."
"Tsk..." Zhujian did not feel any evil spirit from the black fox, no matter whether it is a dog or a fox, the fact that it is just an ordinary animal cannot be changed, but it is quite calm, and Not shouting or shouting may be a mute, and the little girl was very cooperative, so Zhujian threw the fox to the ground without hesitation.
The black fox dexterously turned over in mid-air, and the paw pads fell on the ground without a sound. Before the girl could be happy, it quickly slipped back behind the Bodhisattva statue, and no matter how others called, it did not respond.
"...Huh!" The girl glared at Zhujian angrily, grabbed the roast chicken on the ground with her bare hands, and ate it with her back turned to him.
Yao Lian stared at the place where the black fox disappeared for a long time without saying a word, until the guy in Zhujian was tempted by the smell of the damned roast chicken, and was frequently glanced at the ground, he hated iron and said: "Is it okay to be a bit promising?"
"Yaoni...I haven't eaten this thing yet, it smells so good, you have to buy it for me..."
"Buy, buy all of them!" Yao Niang held his forehead in pain, "Go and ask what those priests explained to the villagers before?"
Zhu Jian immediately said according to the script: "Hey children, have those stinky Taoist priests you mentioned before told you anything?"
"Humph!"
"Hum again and I'll beat you up." Zhu Jian said, grabbing the girl's face, and viciously pinching her vigorously, the pain made her scream, Zhu Jian didn't have the slightest sympathy, and the bullying was so enjoyable, he wanted to continue Extorting a confession, just opened his mouth, but heard a few people rushing through the woods not far away, all of them were carrying bamboo poles, and they were still greeting and shouting to each other.
Yao Yao listened carefully, and found out what it was: "it happened again", "someone lost it again", he hurriedly reminded Zhu Jian: "Leave her alone, go to the village with outsiders to have a look!"
This time, there is no need to remind Yao Yao at all. Zhu Jian left the girl in the temple early and jumped to the top of the tallest tree in front of the door. His weight can be placed very lightly, just like the weight of a long sword. The tip gently touched the branch, bending the branch a little, and the bamboo stream flicked the hem of the clothes, watching several villagers stumbling into a small road condescendingly.
"Over there!" He gestured towards Yaoniang to a house full of people, because the villagers fled and the rest closed their homes, so it was easy for Zhujian to find unusual places.
"Yeah." Yao Yao brushed aside the annoying black hair that was entangled with his dragon horns, and he slid from the tip of Zhujian's ears along the inner pinna all the way into Zhujian's collar, and then wrapped himself up with only his eyes outside, " Just go there."
"Okay!" Zhu Jian was very obedient and said what he said, and as soon as the words fell, he moved and moved quickly between the treetops.
Listening to Zhu Jian's full promise not to make any troubles, Yao Lian couldn't adapt to it. The cold wind made him unable to open his eyes. Halfway through, he simply tucked himself into his collar, thinking that the sword tassel is really so beautiful, or the bamboo What quirk does Jian have for collecting sword spikes?
How could he figure out the thinking of a sword?
The courtyard where the accident happened was full of people, but it was surprisingly quiet. Everyone had serious faces, panic, and sadness. A few hid by the wall and whispered to each other to comfort each other. Standing on tiptoe at the back, he couldn't see or hear clearly, he didn't bother to squeeze forward, he looked up at random, and stepped on the roof of the tile-roofed house in one jump.
A young man in snow white clothes and black hair appeared in front of everyone like an immortal. Several pairs of eyes immediately fixed on him. The three people surrounded by the villagers also stopped communicating instantly. Two people were shocked and one person was puzzled. Looking at the bamboo stream.
Yao poked half of his head out of his clothes, and saw one of the three was dressed as a woman, with tears on his face, staring blankly at the roof, holding a torn cotton padded jacket in his hand; A hale and hearty old man, he straightened his face soon after the shock;
The last one is a young man wearing a yin and yang Taoist crown, a blue and white Taoist robe, and a mahogany sword in his hand. He is young but behaves maturely. He frowned slightly and asked before the others could react. : "Prince Immortal, is it possible that coming here is also because of that monster hurting people?"
"Exactly." Zhujian has always been thick-skinned, and he is very well adapted to titles such as Xianjun and Xianchang. He gently protected Yaoniang's head with his fingertips, and then made a chic leap, turning his clothes Fei, the eyes of everyone involuntarily followed him and fell firmly in front of the Taoist priest, "Did you find anything?"
The Taoist said that he respectfully called the head of the fairy, but he didn't really believe in Zhujian. He reached out to stop the woman who was about to cry, and cupped his sword and asked, "My lord, Chang Mingzi, if you dare to ask your name, which door you come from, where is it?" group?"
Zhu Jian didn't like the cold and aggressive tone of the other party, he narrowed his eyes with anger, Yao Niang immediately pinched the flesh on his collarbone calmly, "Answer him."
"..." Zhu Jian curled his lips, "My name is Yao Nian, and I come from Junhu Island."
"Junhu Island?" Chang Mingzi lowered his eyes and was lost in thought, Zhu Jian waved his hands indifferently, "You're a low-ranking little broken sect, you've heard of ghosts before you hear about it." Before he finished speaking, he felt that his collarbone was severely crushed. Pulling the skin and turning it around, there will be a bruise even if it is not swollen.
Chang Mingzi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said respectfully: "But the sect of the Immortal Chen Shuo? Disrespect, disrespect, I didn't expect that the evil plague in the east country could attract the immortal leader of Junhu Island..."
"Stop talking nonsense! What's going on now?" Zhujian didn't want to talk to this young but lifeless Taoist priest. The old village head and the woman next to him heard that this was an upright fairy from some kind of noble family. He hurriedly told the ins and outs.
The matter is very simple, the woman is a widow who lost her husband the year before last, and her eleven or twelve-year-old son is dependent on each other, but the son's health is extremely poor, and he can only stay on the bed and hang his life with medicine on weekdays, because his illness is too serious. The boat and the car were exhausted, and they couldn't leave the village because of the monster stealing people. The woman could only guard her son in fear every day.
As a result, she was so exhausted today that she couldn't help taking a nap in the backyard while chopping wood, and when she woke up, her son had disappeared, leaving only the torn padded jacket on her body.
"My son is weak and sick, and there is absolutely no possibility of leaving alone. Besides, he has been wearing this padded jacket outside since the beginning of winter, so he can only be captured by a monster..." The woman said, crying, "Stay ...Because, my mother...is not alive..."
The rest of the villagers rushed forward and stopped the widow who stood up and was about to bump her head to death in front of the water tank.
"That clothes." Yao Lian reminded aloud, no emotion could be heard in his voice, like a bottomless ice spring, the more chaotic he became, the calmer he became, "Bring it to me to see look."
"En." Zhu Jian bent down to pick up the cotton-padded jacket from the ground, Chang Mingzi noticed his movement, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "What did the Immortal Chief find?"
Qiu Rong, a seven-foot rabbit, was dragged into the house by a six-foot sword, and the hair on his tail fell off the ground because of his grievances. He lost seven children, and still can't find where his old nest is, so let's not get involved."
"It doesn't matter, didn't you rabbits have been eaten by him a lot, let the brave and fearless Lord Zhujian avenge you." It is also carried by Zhujian alone, and he can please some good things and recover sooner.
"You can't say that... Carnivorous animals like tigers and leopards, as well as humans, eat a few rabbits. It's normal. We demons can't take revenge because of this. Excessive killing will affect the foundation of practice and be punished by heaven."
Zhu Jianruo realized something: "That is to say, the monsters are only targeting human beings, and eating your rabbits is just to fill their stomachs?"
"So far it looks like that."
"It's the mortals who hurt us the most!" Ah Qiu added while hiding outside the door, and when Zhu Jian heard the movement and turned around, he quickly ran away to decoct the medicine.
Qiu Rong said helplessly: "The human beings in the nearby villages were also forced. I went back to the familiar households to exchange rice. I found out that all the newborns in the village went to relatives' homes outside the city to seek refuge. Only the young and strong were left. The man stayed at home because he was afraid that thieves would take advantage of the chaos.
At the beginning, the monster only stole newborn babies, and after four or five mortals ran away with their own dolls, he had nothing to steal, and then even three or four-year-olds were not spared. "
Yao Lian listened silently, not expressing his opinions casually. While listening, he took a small sip to blow away the heat of the rice paste, and then took a sip comfortably. After Qiu Rong finished telling what he knew, the room fell into a strange silence. Yao Lian raised his head suspiciously, and saw all four eyes in the room staring at him, and a pair of red eyes embedded in the crack of the door, also hooking him in the same way.
"..."
He pressed his temples dumbfoundedly, and analyzed: "Did you notice Doctor Qiu's words? It's either 'stealing' or 'stealing', but as we all know, the style of most monster races has always been open robbery. Do you know what this means? "
"What does this mean?" Zhu Jian turned the question to Qiu Rong, and Qiu Rong paused for a while, eager to learn and returned the question respectfully to Yao Niang: "What does this mean?"
"It means that this monster is not capable enough to snatch their children from human beings in an open manner. No one has seen his face, and no one knows his race. One is because he is cunning, and the other is that he dare not exposed to public view.
Judging from his current expansion of the scope to three- and four-year-old children, can we speculate that age is not the key point, and he only targets young children because young children are better controlled than adults?Do you know what that means again? "
"Does it mean that if he is in a hurry, he is likely to take risks in the next stage, and the adult men in the village will not be spared by that time." Qiu Rong listened attentively and made associations very cooperatively, while Zhu Jian was twitching. With the corners of his lips pursed, he impatiently stepped forward and rubbed Yao Yao's dragon horns, "Hurry up, don't talk nonsense."
"What you're talking about is an ideal situation. It's based on the fact that sacrifices to extraordinary people are impossible. If this is the case, we don't need to deal with it at all. The monsters are so targeting the nearby villages that they would rather be hunted and killed than hide around. If you are willing to leave, it is nothing more than a cycle of karma, and the retribution is not good."
Qiu Rong had an intuition that Yao Lian would not say anything good next time, when he saw the person on the bed suddenly looking directly at him, he couldn't help pricking up his ears vigilantly, "If, if not?"
"If there is no limit, and he can't control human men, then he is likely to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, and turn to attack other nearby races, such as your rabbit demon's baby."
"..." Qiu Rong fell silent for a while, and Yao Niang added with drooping eyes: "Although these are just my reasonable speculations, it is best to ask your clansmen to strengthen their vigilance in the next few days, Doctor Qiu, in case In case, you'd better go to the village where the baby was lost and inquire about it, and see what happened before the first incident, so that we can further speculate what the monster's purpose is."
"No problem!" When it comes to the safety of his family members, Qiu Rong is of course full of energy. A Qiu listened to the general idea outside the door. go."
The white rabbit whose thigh was injured also woke up slowly in the corner of the bed, and turned into a girl with the upper body of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old human child and the lower body of a rabbit. Help, if there is a reason for that monster, I will definitely help him, so that these hateful mortals will suffer!"
After hearing this, Yao Lian couldn't help laughing out loud, and silently lamented the white rabbit demon's youthful vengeance, "What are you two going to do? You can't even transform into a human form."
"No, I don't want to take revenge on you." The girl stared around with her red eyes, and finally stared desperately at the person who was the worst person to mess with, "My lord, I think you are the most powerful here, you Can you teach me some disguise spells? Let me go to the mortal realm."
Zhujian was suddenly named, and he was completely confused. He was sitting on the edge of the bed and was seriously thinking about why the topic became more and more distorted?
He pulled Qiu Rong into the house to treat Yao Lian's illness, so that Yao Lian could go to the town to buy him sword tassels, how did it turn out that Qiu Rong went to the village to ask questions, and Yao Lian continued to lie on the bed to recuperate?
"No. I'm not right, Yao Niang, this—"
The female rabbit demon is one of the rare ones who dared to lift the beard of Zhujian. She persevered and begged: "Master Xianjun, with your supernatural powers, there is no way you can't do this, please."
"Let's go play, get out!" It's a pity that Zhu Jian has no mercy at all, he avoids the hand of the little white rabbit who is reaching out to grab his clothes in disgust, takes the rice soup in Yao Niang's hand and replaces it with a pungent smell "Yao Niang, who asked you to fool Qiu Rong away with a few words? Qiu Rong don't listen to him, don't run around, just stay honest and treat him. I will ask the people in the village for you. .”
"It's just you?" Yao Yao raised his eyebrows, it was rare for him to have such a vivid expression, and he gave all of his expressions to the sword demon in front of him, "I'm afraid I won't be able to ask anything, maybe I'll be so angry just asking a few words chopped."
He looked across the bamboo gorge and landed on the little girl with a broken leg in the corner of the bed. It was interesting to see her puffy look, "Your name is Tuantuan?"
The female rabbit raised her eyelids, her red eyes were crystal clear, "Ang."
"If you or A Qiu really want to go to the village, I have a way." Yao Niang pointed to the bamboo gorge and said, "This fairy has a storage bag with a blue ribbon in it, which is tied around his wrist. I can make you as big as the palm of your hand, but I didn't store much mana in it before, and it can last for four hours at most, but it will be enough for the two of you to let Qiu Rong take it out once. .”
"..." "..."
Tuantuan and A Qiu looked at each other, raised their hands frantically and shouted: "I'll go!"
Zhu Jian "snatched" the storage bag away, and before he had time to look through the contents, he found the streamer in Yao Niang's mouth, and said in admiration: "Okay, Yao Yaolong Lord, there are many good things. "
"...Don't call me Lord Long."
"Still can't recognize the reality?" Zhujian Shaoqing took out the green ribbon from the storage bag, and he immediately showed a malicious smile to Yao Niang, who had just summoned up the courage to drink the bitter and suffocating wine. Medicinal juice, forcibly frightened by this smile, shivered down the spine, Yao Yao retreated vigilantly from the bed, but Zhu Jian grabbed his hand, and the next second the streamer tied his wrist uncompromisingly.
Ever since Master Guanyue put chains on his wrists, causing him to be dug out of the demon pills by the Wanjie disciples with bare hands, Yao Lian hated all these things trapped on his wrists. He clenched his left hand quickly and squeezed hard Pulling back, he gritted his teeth and said, "Stop!"
A black rope pierced into the flesh appeared on Zhujian's neck in an instant, and the more he struggled, the tighter it was, the veins protruding all over his neck, "...you actually fucked me! This thing...isn't it just once sexual!"
"Hmph." Yao Yao slightly relaxed the invisible rope on his left hand, and asked while Zhu Jian was covering his throat and coughing loudly: "What do you want to tie this ribbon for me? You don't like being forced, the same as me I don't like it either."
When everyone thought that Zhu Jian was going to start a killing spree, he seemed to be moved by Yao Lian's last words, and after comparing his heart to his heart, he didn't get angry immediately. He coughed and stared at Yao Lian bitterly and said: Put you in my sleeve when you get smaller, and I will take you to the village to inquire about news."
"..."
Yao Lian hadn't thought about this method, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was better. After all, the so-called attacking the rabbit clan was just his family's words, and the monster's next whereabouts were more likely to go to the village to continue stealing human dolls.
Ask Qiu Rong to inquire about the news. In case of encountering a monster face to face, or encountering a vicious and difficult mortal, it is still not safe to come from Zhujian.After all, if you retreat from the bamboo stream, you can turn your soul into a sword and escape, and if you advance, you can fight with your sword. As for Qiu Rong, you can only run away in tears or scream for mercy.
Thinking up to this point, Yao Nian nodded and said: "Alright."
Zhu Jian was taken aback when he heard the words, and then rushed onto the edge of the bed and asked loudly: "What did you say? Did you agree? Did you actually agree?"
Contrary to Zhu Jian's surprise and joy, Tuantuan and A Qiu both showed disappointed expressions, patting the bed with both hands, and almost sighed to the sky.Yao Lian put the medicine bowl on the top of the bamboo stream, "Well, I agree, if you have any ideas in the future, you have to ask me first, and you are not allowed to do such things that are directly in my hands."
Can Zhujian agree?Certainly not, he hummed casually to get rid of the trouble, then returned the medicine bowl to A Qiu, and then vigorously slapped Qiu Rong's rabbit tail, "Qiu Rabbit, where's the treatment for today? Hurry up, It’s best to heal him right away, tomorrow I’m going to take Yao Niang to help your clan find out about the enemy’s situation.”
"Ah, oh." Qiu Rong didn't care about the painful tip of his tail, and sat beside Yao Lian with his hands in his hands.
"I'm sorry, Doctor Qiu."
"No trouble, no trouble. Since Xianjun finally planned this way, I will use up my demon power to heal you today. However, I have to rely on Zhujian Xianjun for the night watch."
"No problem." Zhu Jian fully agreed that he would wrap it on him, but in the end he slept more soundly than anyone else in the middle of the night.
Last night he was able to survive the whole night in good spirits, thanks to Qiu Rong talking with him, but tonight everyone is asleep, Qiu Rong is exhausted, the whole person almost passed out on the bed, bored After counting thousands of stars below, he also dozed off facing the moon after a while.
Amid all the silence, a tiny figure emerged from the grass. It was completely submerged in the darkness, except for a pair of long and narrow eyes that glowed with a faint green light in the night. It looked like a ghost. It waited quietly for a while. Yes, take a look at the dozing old donkey under the shed, and then probe quietly to confirm the man in the yard who seems to have fallen asleep and who is the most threatening to him.
But this look made it tremble in fright. There was no one in the yard at all. The black shadow realized that something was wrong, and it quickly hid in the grass without looking back.If it slowed down by another half a second, the domineering sword energy that followed would surely cut off all of its forelimbs.
Before the withered grass stopped shaking, Zhujian walked out from under the eaves with a cold face. He looked at the remaining sword qi pit on the ground, and slowly narrowed his eyes. night.
"...You run fast."
■
The next morning, when Yao Yao just woke up, he was pulled up by Qiu Rong again. No matter how Yao Yao refused repeatedly because he was concerned about his health, Qiu Rong wanted to heal him again with his remaining demon power with a livid face.
It was only when Yao Lian got out of bed and drank porridge that he realized what happened. It turned out that Zhujian found a suspicious person ambushing near the hut in the middle of the night. Qiu Rong was restless when he found out early in the morning. Yao Lian is cured, so that Zhujian can leave earlier and go to the village to investigate.
"Didn't you really see it in your dream?" Yao Niang picked up a piece of dried salted radish that A Qiu sent for porridge, and Zhu Jian snatched it from between his chopsticks with a cold snort, "Go eat your porridge, don't talk. "
After this treatment, Yao Lian obviously felt light and healthy. Not only did he no longer feel pain in his abdomen, but his appetite also increased a lot. No matter how hard it was to fill his stomach with food such as rice cereal and porridge, he drank several bowls in a row. feel hungry.
The opposite of Yao Li is the kind-hearted Doctor Qiu who is concerned about the country and the people. He is like an old pagoda tree about to go west. After the treatment, his face is dry and sallow. Sleep on the bed and sit on the chair for him.
Even though he was so exhausted, before he died, Qiu Rong still worriedly said: "Xianjun, please make sure to find out clearly, and save our Manshan Rabbit Clan from the fire and water."
"Don't be so nervous." Yao Niang was dumbfounded by Qiu Rong's serious attitude. He tucked in the quilt and covered Doctor Qiu's burly body. "It's just a black shadow the size of a cat or a dog, maybe What about stray animals?"
He still wanted to comfort him a few more words, but Zhu Jian, who had been waiting impatiently, grabbed his wrist, twisted it around and tied it into a tight knot. Yao Yao felt his whole body lighten suddenly, and all the objects around him instantly changed. It was so huge, and the ground under his feet was soft and shaking, he couldn't help half kneeling down to stabilize his figure.
"It's really getting smaller, it's so fun!!!" Tuantuan, who came to Qiu Rong's house early in the morning, exclaimed in surprise. Hongyue's eyeballs turned straight at him, and Tuantuan breathed out curiously, and he was immediately overturned and fell into the gap between the index finger and middle finger of Zhujian.
"Don't mess around!" Yao Lian put his face on the ground seriously, he tore away a few strands of messy hair hanging from the dragon's horns, stretched out his small hands not much bigger than fingernails from his cuffs, and straightened the hem of his clothes in a serious manner. Zhu Jian lifted the back of his neck, the other party's dark eyes narrowed into narrow lines, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, "It's really interesting."
Yao Lian uncomfortably pulled the front flap that strangled his throat, moved his feet while shaking back and forth, and said in a low voice, "Let me stay on your shoulder."
"Okay." Zhu Jian threw Yao Niang to the side of his neck briskly, then turned around and waved goodbye to the two rabbits in the house.After Yao Lian fell to the ground, he crawled forward clutching the skirt of his clothes with his small hands, and finally got into his collar before Zhu Jian went out.
Yao Lian found a wrinkle between the outer robe and the middle coat, patted it and put himself in it, with his feet on his collarbone, his hands on his shoulders, his posture was a little awkward, but he couldn't find any other better way.
As soon as Fang opened the door, the cold air outside the house poured straight into the neckline, Zhu Jian didn't notice it with his face up to the sky, but Yao Lian's little face was pale from the cold, so he quickly bent down and hooked his waist, hiding himself tightly.
I haven't seen him for a few days, but Zhujian is still using the same method that he showed when he was escaping on Junhu Island - the ape rushing to the sky and the earth. Cover the small bag protruding from the neckline with your palm, and when you get outside the entrance of the village, you will only have one breath left when you bow your head again.
Zhujian quickly put the person in his palm, and took a handful of morning dew from the young leaves beside him and sprinkled it on his face.Yao Niang's head was dizzy, his body was full of suffocation, and he opened his mouth to bite Zhu Jian's finger.
"Hey, Immortal Yaoyao! You are an Immortal! How can an Immortal bite someone!" Zhu Jian exaggeratedly ouched, but before he finished speaking, another man came from behind the short slope they used to hide their figures. shouted: "Ouch! How dare you bite! Let go of your mouth! If you don't let go of your mouth, I will beat you!"
Yao Lian and Zhu Jian looked at each other, one of them let go quickly, and ordered the other to put the person back on his shoulder.Zhu Jian quietly took two steps forward, looking at the situation on your road at the entrance of the village.
There were three men of different heights, thin, fat and short, surrounded a young girl of cardamom age, they seemed to be vying for the oiled paper bag in the girl's arms, and the girl was not as strong as the man, so she had no choice but to bite one of them to death His arms and gums were bleeding and he would not let go.
The men didn't show mercy just because it was a woman. The man who was bitten kicked her belly hard, while his companion kicked her back. The woman couldn't hold back and fell to the ground with a scream. She endured the pain He quickly crawled to the oiled paper bag with his elbows, curled up to protect it tightly with his body, and would rather be punched and kicked by the men than relax.
"I know how to steal, I know how to steal! Such a big girl, her hands and feet are so dirty, no wonder she can't get married, whoever marries you will be unlucky!"...
The muffled sound of fists and fists echoed in the open space, but the postures of the two peeking behind the slope did not change. After a while, Yao Lian asked, "...Aren't you going to help her?"
Hearing this, Zhu Jian hummed, and asked strangely: "Who am I going to help? A man or a woman?"
"……never mind."
"It's definitely something to hear from your tone, say it!"
Yao Yao sighed, "Save that girl, and then send her home. With the relationship of a lifesaver, it is convenient to get the truth out of her mouth."
"...Okay." Zhujian did as he said, and he jumped out from behind Po. As a result, within the time they were talking, the three men had already finished beating and swearing and left, while the girl wiped her face with the back of her hand. With the mud on her face, holding the crumpled and torn oil paper on the ground, she actually showed a smile, and she quickly trot out of the village happily.
"Follow!" Yao Yao patted the mount under him, and Zhu Jian immediately followed the girl like a shadow, following her all the way, watching the little girl make a big circle, and finally stepped into the ruined temple outside the village. middle.
The back of the bamboo gorge was stuck in front of the stone lion lacking an eye and a nose in front of the temple, quietly showing half of its head and looking through the door, only to see that the girl suddenly became restrained after entering the temple gate, her steps slowed down, and she was still walking. Deliberately lowering her thin voice, she whispered: "Are you there?...I stole...I bought roast chicken, you...do you want to eat it?"
Suspecting that he couldn't see clearly standing on Zhujian's shoulder, Yao Yao turned around and pulled his long hair, and jumped onto Zhujian's head with a clever effort.
The girl's question was not answered, so she was not discouraged, and continued to coax in a soft tone: "Delicious roast chicken," she swallowed first, and the swallowing sound was a bit loud, when did the girl Blushing with shame, he muttered: "...I'll leave the legs for you to eat, and I'll eat the neck, okay?"
Finally, there was movement in the shadows at this moment, a dark fox emerged from behind the ashes-covered Bodhisattva statue, with light blue pupils peaceful and steady, just quietly looking at the little fox in front of him who was trying his best to please him. girl.
"...You are still there, are you eating?"
Outside the temple, Zhujian grabbed Yaoyao on top of his head violently, squatted down and completely covered himself behind the stone lion, and said in a breathy voice: "That's it! I saw such a big four-clawed animal last night! "
Yao Lian was grasped by Zhu Jian firmly in his palm with a calm face, and he said without love: "Then what are you waiting for, go and kill it."
"...I'm not sure, what if I startle the snake?"
"..." When he should be decisive, he is not calm, when he should be calm, he is impulsive, Yao Yao really wants to kill this dead sword spirit that has caused him countless 'sweet' little troubles, "Do you think this fox is normal?"
"unusual."
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"..."
The girl tore off a chicken leg with oiled paper and pushed it in front of the fox. The chicken skin was crispy and the chicken was soft and rotten. It pushes back under the girl's feet.
Such a beautiful scene was broken by a hateful sword spirit at the next moment. The bamboo stream suddenly appeared behind the fox as if walking out of the air. The plan to shoot down the first shot was completed, but Zhujian grabbed the back of the fox's neck with one hand, and then easily lifted it up.
Zhujian: "..."
fox:"……"
girl:"……"
Yao Niang: "..."
The atmosphere in the temple was very stagnant, the fox was caught by Zhujian without any struggle, the girl also stood there dumbfounded and did not react, Yao Yao was vigilant about deceit around, Zhujian looked at the fox for a while, and suddenly frowned and said: "Is it that simple? How can you, a baby-stealing fox, be so weak?"
"No, it's not! It's not a fox!" The girl shouted quickly. She knew that Zhu Jian was not an ordinary person, so she looked at him in fear, but tried not to run away. "It's just an ordinary dog!"
"Dog...dog?" Zhu Jian teased me with a full face. "Then tell me, why do ordinary dogs hide in this kind of place, and they don't bark when they see you? And they know how to give you the roast chicken?" eat?"
When she found out that Zhujian didn't hit her as soon as the men in the village saw her, the girl became courageous immediately, and she retorted sharply: "Because it's so good! In our East Country, a dog with silver fur is a symbol of auspiciousness. If you dare to hurt it, you will go to jail!"
Although Zhujian didn't understand the rules of this country, he knew something was wrong when he heard this, "Auspicious? Silver fur? Dog? This is obviously a black fox, okay?"
"Silver! The first time I saw it was silver! It's just stained with dust!"
Seeing that the topic was getting more and more crooked, Yao Niang hurriedly stuck behind Zhu Jian's ear and whispered: "Ask her if she knows about the missing baby in the village."
"Oh, girl, do you know about the missing baby in the village? You answer me well, and I'll return this silly fox to you if you answer well." Zhu Jian played the second half of the sentence freely, and shook it as he spoke. Shaking the fox under his hands, the latter opened a pair of faint blue animal eyes, his limbs were limp and drooping, neither struggling nor screaming, almost like a plush puppet made of fox fur.
Yao Yao unconsciously glanced over at the corner of his eyes, and was surprised to find that the fox's eyes were on him.
"Of course I know. Even the people in the town know about such a big event. Everyone suspects that monsters are in trouble. The village raised money and found several Taoist priests to exorcise the evil spirits. They also hired many hunters to go to the mountains to make traps. It's of no use."
"Then do you recall any strange things that happened in the village before the first baby was lost? It can be big or small, but it never happened."
The girl suddenly said, "You are also Taoist priests who come to catch demons, right! The Taoist priests who came here have asked this question several times, but there is nothing strange about it. There is no red rain in the sky, and there is no strange light... ...Master Daoist, return the dog to me, it is so pitiful for it to be hung by you like this."
"Tsk..." Zhujian did not feel any evil spirit from the black fox, no matter whether it is a dog or a fox, the fact that it is just an ordinary animal cannot be changed, but it is quite calm, and Not shouting or shouting may be a mute, and the little girl was very cooperative, so Zhujian threw the fox to the ground without hesitation.
The black fox dexterously turned over in mid-air, and the paw pads fell on the ground without a sound. Before the girl could be happy, it quickly slipped back behind the Bodhisattva statue, and no matter how others called, it did not respond.
"...Huh!" The girl glared at Zhujian angrily, grabbed the roast chicken on the ground with her bare hands, and ate it with her back turned to him.
Yao Lian stared at the place where the black fox disappeared for a long time without saying a word, until the guy in Zhujian was tempted by the smell of the damned roast chicken, and was frequently glanced at the ground, he hated iron and said: "Is it okay to be a bit promising?"
"Yaoni...I haven't eaten this thing yet, it smells so good, you have to buy it for me..."
"Buy, buy all of them!" Yao Niang held his forehead in pain, "Go and ask what those priests explained to the villagers before?"
Zhu Jian immediately said according to the script: "Hey children, have those stinky Taoist priests you mentioned before told you anything?"
"Humph!"
"Hum again and I'll beat you up." Zhu Jian said, grabbing the girl's face, and viciously pinching her vigorously, the pain made her scream, Zhu Jian didn't have the slightest sympathy, and the bullying was so enjoyable, he wanted to continue Extorting a confession, just opened his mouth, but heard a few people rushing through the woods not far away, all of them were carrying bamboo poles, and they were still greeting and shouting to each other.
Yao Yao listened carefully, and found out what it was: "it happened again", "someone lost it again", he hurriedly reminded Zhu Jian: "Leave her alone, go to the village with outsiders to have a look!"
This time, there is no need to remind Yao Yao at all. Zhu Jian left the girl in the temple early and jumped to the top of the tallest tree in front of the door. His weight can be placed very lightly, just like the weight of a long sword. The tip gently touched the branch, bending the branch a little, and the bamboo stream flicked the hem of the clothes, watching several villagers stumbling into a small road condescendingly.
"Over there!" He gestured towards Yaoniang to a house full of people, because the villagers fled and the rest closed their homes, so it was easy for Zhujian to find unusual places.
"Yeah." Yao Yao brushed aside the annoying black hair that was entangled with his dragon horns, and he slid from the tip of Zhujian's ears along the inner pinna all the way into Zhujian's collar, and then wrapped himself up with only his eyes outside, " Just go there."
"Okay!" Zhu Jian was very obedient and said what he said, and as soon as the words fell, he moved and moved quickly between the treetops.
Listening to Zhu Jian's full promise not to make any troubles, Yao Lian couldn't adapt to it. The cold wind made him unable to open his eyes. Halfway through, he simply tucked himself into his collar, thinking that the sword tassel is really so beautiful, or the bamboo What quirk does Jian have for collecting sword spikes?
How could he figure out the thinking of a sword?
The courtyard where the accident happened was full of people, but it was surprisingly quiet. Everyone had serious faces, panic, and sadness. A few hid by the wall and whispered to each other to comfort each other. Standing on tiptoe at the back, he couldn't see or hear clearly, he didn't bother to squeeze forward, he looked up at random, and stepped on the roof of the tile-roofed house in one jump.
A young man in snow white clothes and black hair appeared in front of everyone like an immortal. Several pairs of eyes immediately fixed on him. The three people surrounded by the villagers also stopped communicating instantly. Two people were shocked and one person was puzzled. Looking at the bamboo stream.
Yao poked half of his head out of his clothes, and saw one of the three was dressed as a woman, with tears on his face, staring blankly at the roof, holding a torn cotton padded jacket in his hand; A hale and hearty old man, he straightened his face soon after the shock;
The last one is a young man wearing a yin and yang Taoist crown, a blue and white Taoist robe, and a mahogany sword in his hand. He is young but behaves maturely. He frowned slightly and asked before the others could react. : "Prince Immortal, is it possible that coming here is also because of that monster hurting people?"
"Exactly." Zhujian has always been thick-skinned, and he is very well adapted to titles such as Xianjun and Xianchang. He gently protected Yaoniang's head with his fingertips, and then made a chic leap, turning his clothes Fei, the eyes of everyone involuntarily followed him and fell firmly in front of the Taoist priest, "Did you find anything?"
The Taoist said that he respectfully called the head of the fairy, but he didn't really believe in Zhujian. He reached out to stop the woman who was about to cry, and cupped his sword and asked, "My lord, Chang Mingzi, if you dare to ask your name, which door you come from, where is it?" group?"
Zhu Jian didn't like the cold and aggressive tone of the other party, he narrowed his eyes with anger, Yao Niang immediately pinched the flesh on his collarbone calmly, "Answer him."
"..." Zhu Jian curled his lips, "My name is Yao Nian, and I come from Junhu Island."
"Junhu Island?" Chang Mingzi lowered his eyes and was lost in thought, Zhu Jian waved his hands indifferently, "You're a low-ranking little broken sect, you've heard of ghosts before you hear about it." Before he finished speaking, he felt that his collarbone was severely crushed. Pulling the skin and turning it around, there will be a bruise even if it is not swollen.
Chang Mingzi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said respectfully: "But the sect of the Immortal Chen Shuo? Disrespect, disrespect, I didn't expect that the evil plague in the east country could attract the immortal leader of Junhu Island..."
"Stop talking nonsense! What's going on now?" Zhujian didn't want to talk to this young but lifeless Taoist priest. The old village head and the woman next to him heard that this was an upright fairy from some kind of noble family. He hurriedly told the ins and outs.
The matter is very simple, the woman is a widow who lost her husband the year before last, and her eleven or twelve-year-old son is dependent on each other, but the son's health is extremely poor, and he can only stay on the bed and hang his life with medicine on weekdays, because his illness is too serious. The boat and the car were exhausted, and they couldn't leave the village because of the monster stealing people. The woman could only guard her son in fear every day.
As a result, she was so exhausted today that she couldn't help taking a nap in the backyard while chopping wood, and when she woke up, her son had disappeared, leaving only the torn padded jacket on her body.
"My son is weak and sick, and there is absolutely no possibility of leaving alone. Besides, he has been wearing this padded jacket outside since the beginning of winter, so he can only be captured by a monster..." The woman said, crying, "Stay ...Because, my mother...is not alive..."
The rest of the villagers rushed forward and stopped the widow who stood up and was about to bump her head to death in front of the water tank.
"That clothes." Yao Lian reminded aloud, no emotion could be heard in his voice, like a bottomless ice spring, the more chaotic he became, the calmer he became, "Bring it to me to see look."
"En." Zhu Jian bent down to pick up the cotton-padded jacket from the ground, Chang Mingzi noticed his movement, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "What did the Immortal Chief find?"
