Everyone Says I'm the Demon King [Unlimited]
Chapter 146 Past Events (3)
The dog, which has grown up a lot, is white and soft, and has a strong and graceful body. Although it has always been reserved and refused to be touched easily, it has become the second scenery in the minds of every pilgrim who comes to the Taoist temple.
The first one is the handsome young priest.
News of the young Taoist priest's disappearance quickly spread through the town.Because his younger brother Tao Taoist hurriedly dragged the pilgrims who came over and asked them one by one on the second day he disappeared.
It's just that the incense in the Taoist temple is so-so on weekdays, so it's good to have a few people come in one morning.
Xiao Tao didn't get any specific news about Lu Fengdeng from the pilgrim, but heard something else.
The head of a family disappeared from the market southwest of town.
The other party goes to the fair routinely to sell something, and then buy something for the family back.As a result, everyone was going to sleep that night, and the other party still didn't come home, and he didn't come back the next morning.Now that family has reported to the government, looking for people everywhere in the town and the market.
The market in the southwest of town...
As soon as Xiao Tao heard this, he immediately felt bad.
Brother went down the mountain yesterday to go to the market on the southwest side of the town, but he still hasn't come back yet.Could it be that something happened to the two of them together?
Without further ado, after discussing with his master, Xiaotao decided to close the Taoist temple and go down the mountain to find someone.
The master is getting old, and after this winter, he has started not to care about world affairs. Many things inside and outside the Taoist temple are taken care of by the two brothers.Xiao Tao talked to him a few times, and the sick master immediately agreed.This is the child he brought up with his own hands, how could he not be in a hurry, so he naturally agreed.
The white dog has been guarding the gate for two whole days and one night, hoping that its beloved owner will return home soon.Seeing Xiaoxue growing up day by day, the two brothers discussed to tie Xiaoxue in the courtyard with a rope, mainly to prevent Xiaoxue from running around and accidentally hurting others. After all, there were many women and children among the pilgrims who came to the Taoist temple.
At this moment, the majestic big dog was biting the rope around his neck irritably.Its beloved master has not come back for a long time, and it wants to go down the mountain to find someone, but this thing hinders its pace, even though it is put on by the master himself.
Xiao Tao hastily locked the gate of the Taoist temple, and then rushed to the courtyard, while reaching out to untie the rope tied to the pillar, he babbled, "Xiaoxue, senior brother is gone, you are usually familiar with the smell of senior brother, you can find him rely on you."
After finishing speaking, he untied the rope, and just about to pat the white dog's head, he saw that the other dog ran forward quickly as soon as he was free, with such force that not only made his attempt to touch the head fail, but also almost put him Pulled a reel.
Damn, this guy, when he was young, let people touch his head and rub his belly, but now that he grows up, he can't touch it anymore, so he can only rub his hands while his senior brother is around.
Xiao Tao thought silently in his heart.
He took Xiaoxue and ran all the way down the mountain.
As soon as he got off the mountain, the white dog ran away in no hurry.
It lowered its head and walked slowly, with the tip of its nose fluttering, as if it was catching the scent of Lu Fengdeng in the air.Xiao Tao didn't urge him, and didn't dare to disturb the other party's journey of searching for his senior brother's track.
He thought sadly, fortunately, it hasn't rained much in the past few days, so the breath should not have completely dissipated.But it's been a day, I don't know if Xiaoxue can still find the brother's footprints.Not many pilgrims came this morning, and several of them said they hadn't seen the senior in the town, and they didn't know if the senior had ever been to the town.
The white dog sniffed it carefully for a while, then raised its head and ran forward.Xiao Tao didn't dare to slack off, and kept watching Xiaoxue's movements, and immediately ran forward holding the rope.One person and one dog ran all the way, and finally ran all the way from the gate of Lanfeng Mountain to the market in the southwest of the town.
At the entrance to the bazaar, the scent trail is broken.I don't know if it's because the senior brother didn't enter the market, or because there were too many people and goods in the market, which caused the smell to be very complicated, covering up the senior brother's breath, and it has been a day and a night, the smell is even more difficult to distinguish.In short, the white dog wandered back and forth at the entrance of the market, looking a little anxious.
Xiao Tao thought about it, and decided to go to the market to have a look.This market has been open here for several days, if the senior brother has really entered the market, then someone must have seen him in the market.Even if the final whereabouts cannot be found out, it would be good to have more clues.
Thinking about it this way, Xiaotao was about to go in by pulling the rope, but before he could pull Xiaoxue, the white dog suddenly sensed something and ran in the opposite direction of his steps.The half-year-old dog was huge in stature and strength, and almost dragged the unprepared Xiao Tao staggering.
He just stabilized his figure and was about to see what Xiaoxue suddenly went crazy when he heard a low and calm male voice behind him:
"Little Tao, Xiaoxue."
Xiao Tao couldn't believe his ears, he turned around suddenly, and saw the handsome young Taoist priest still wearing the same clothes when he came down the mountain, standing behind him and looking at him, and the one almost pulled him over The white dogs are wagging their tails around each other, enjoying a series of services such as touching their heads, pulling their ears, and scratching their chins.
Next to him was a middle-aged man in bunt standing beside him blankly, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
Lu Fengdeng said to him: "Go home. If you have any questions, you can come to the Taoist temple on the mountain to find me later."
The middle-aged uncle turned his head as if he had just woken up from a dream. He looked at the young Taoist priest in front of him with a complicated expression, both excited and awed, and said, "Okay. Then Taoist priest Lu, I'll go first."
Lu Fengdeng just nodded.
As soon as their few conversations were over, Xiao Tao rushed to each other, his face flushed with excitement:
"Brother! I have found you!"
He almost jumped over with a stride, and he couldn't see anyone else in his eyes. He was standing on tiptoe and looked up and down his senior brother: "Brother, are you all right? Where have you been these two days?" ? Didn’t come back all night and all day, I was so anxious! Xiaoxue also stayed at the gate of the courtyard all the time!”
After Xiao Tao finished speaking, he glanced at the white dog that was circling around his senior brother. The other party wagged its tail cooperatively, and barked twice in time to express its agreement: "Wooooow~"
Such a big dog has a thick voice, and it barks so delicately that Xiao Tao couldn't help but get goosebumps.
The originally calm expression of the person standing in front of him became turbulent.Although this emotional fluctuation was extremely slight, Xiao Tao, who grew up with his senior brother, naturally noticed it.The other party blinked slightly, the long eyelashes trembled, the corners of the mouth smiled lightly and then quickly pursed.
The senior brother is happy, but he seems a little unhappy.
Xiaoxue next to her seemed to feel her master's emotions, and continued to coquettishly "wow" twice, then stuck out her tongue and tried hard to lick her master's hand.
Lu Fengdeng reached out and touched the furry head of the white dog beside him, and said, "This matter is a bit complicated, let's talk about it when we go back."
After finishing speaking, he patted the dog's head again, and said to his junior: "Let's go, let's go to the market to buy something. Do you have anything to eat?"
Xiao Tao was quickly distracted, and immediately said: "Buy a roast chicken!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly vetoed himself: "I can make roast chicken, it's a waste of money to buy one! Brother, let's buy some pastries, I feel that I might be able to make them after eating a few!"
Xiaoxue on the side naturally had no opinion, nor would she express any opinion, and would only follow behind her beloved master.
The two of them and the dog stepped into the market again, first bought the things that Lu Fengdeng was planning to buy before he went down the mountain, then walked around the pastry shop, bought a few pastries, and finally returned with a full load.
On the way back, Lu Fengdeng said: "Master's health has not been good recently, you have gone down the mountain, what will the Taoist temple do?"
Xiao Tao took it for granted: "Of course it is closed first. I asked several pilgrims this morning, and they all said that I didn't see you in the town. Instead, you got lost in the market in the southwest of the town. I was very anxious. I told you After discussing it with the master, he closed the door of the Taoist temple, and you are lost, so I don’t have the time to think about the Taoist temple.”
Lu Fengdeng's long eyelashes trembled again.
Xiao Tao said again: "Brother, is the person who is with you today the one who got lost before? Did you get lost with him?"
A faint look of helplessness appeared on Lu Fengdeng's face, then he nodded and said, "Yes."
Xiao Tao noticed his subtle emotions. Although he could feel that his senior brother was not that happy, he was quite happy in his heart.He was brought up by his senior brother since he was a child, and he rarely saw fluctuations on his senior brother's face. It seemed that what happened this time was indeed extraordinary.
He is really curious, look forward and look back.They have already reached the mountain path at this moment, because the Taoist temple closed this afternoon has been hung on the mountain gate early, so there is no one on the mountain path.
Xiao Tao couldn't help but ask: "Brother, what happened to you? Can't you tell me?"
Lu Fengdeng looked at this little junior who had grown a little taller, but his face was still immature, and felt like sighing.He said: "After lunch today, I will report this incident to Master."
Xiao Tao said listlessly, "Oh—"
Lu Fengdeng said: "You come in together."
Xiao Tao quickly regained his energy, and walked like flying with the pastry in hand: "Okay!"
The white dog who had been following beside him dissatisfiedly walked around Lu Fengdeng on the mountain road, whimpering, trying to attract the attention of his beloved owner, and the tail behind him almost turned into a phantom.
What the master is saying to that little fool, it also wants to hear!
Lu Fengdeng looked at the white furry twirling around under his feet, and said, "The Taoist temple will not be open today, so Xiaoxue can come in together and help us guard the door."
The white dog immediately jumped up and down happily.
The room was silent, and no one spoke for a while.
Lu Fengdeng just narrated his one-and-a-half-day experience, from his mysterious disappearance, to being dragged into an abnormal place that obviously no longer belonged to this world, to the mysterious appearance in the southwest of the town after completing the so-called mission. In front of the market, I happened to meet a junior who came to look for someone.
Master's brows had already furrowed into ravines.
Although Xiao Tao couldn't think too much, he also felt that such a strange time might not be a good thing.He couldn't help asking: "Senior brother, you said that thing let you complete the task. After you finished the task and came out, will it come to you again in the future?"
One sentence hits the red heart of the question.
Lu Fengdeng said: "I don't know."
Master sighed deeply, and asked with concern, "Do you think the task is difficult?"
Lu Fengdeng shook his head and said calmly, "I think it's relatively simple."
The master thought for a while, and said: "You have been raised by me in the Taoist temple since you were a child, and you have a pure temperament. If you encounter such a thing again, you must give priority to keeping yourself and don't trust others easily. I listen to your description, I always feel that this task is winding, so we must be vigilant."
"You know," the master took a breath, "I, your junior brother, and Xiaoxue are all waiting for you. If this matter is not over, and you have to continue to do the task, you have to come back every time, don't let us Wait for nothing."
Lu Fengdeng nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, Master. I will definitely come back."
For some reason, Xiaotao felt that the master was so serious that it was frightening.He touched Xiaoxue who was sitting next to him, and thought distressedly, didn't the senior brother say it was easier, why did the master look so worried.
The touched Xiaoxue didn't understand either, but it sensed the unusual atmosphere, so it behaved very well and didn't cause trouble for everyone.
In the future, the life of the Taoist temple seems to be no different, except that every two months or so, the senior brother will suddenly disappear once.Xiao Tao was a little flustered at the beginning, but later on he was able to skillfully deal with the affairs of the Taoist temple temporarily.Every time after Lu Fengdeng came back, he would always pester his senior brother to tell him about the other party's experience, and the other party would often satisfy him, although the talk was very boring.
Until one day, the male owner of the family in the town died suddenly and suddenly.
The first one is the handsome young priest.
News of the young Taoist priest's disappearance quickly spread through the town.Because his younger brother Tao Taoist hurriedly dragged the pilgrims who came over and asked them one by one on the second day he disappeared.
