There are people in the labor prefecture

041. How many dishes are there tonight?

Yan Xigu had already noticed the abnormality of Wudao Mountain, but he didn't expect that the reaction would be stronger when he got closer. There was something on Wudao Mountain, and it was very powerful, because it exuded a strong aroma of food. !

He swallowed, resisting the urge to put the dead air bead under his nose and sniffing it into his mouth to chew, and put the dead air bead into his arms.He still has use for these dead energy beads.

Fortunately, something soon distracted him, and he didn't have the time to pay attention to the dead air beads.Because the closer he got to the Wudao Mountain Taoist Temple on the top of Wudao Mountain, the sickle inside his body became more restless and agitated.

Yan Xigu's thoughts were all concentrated on the sickle, but the little Taoist priest who was walking in front slammed on the brakes. He turned to Yan Xigu with a sad face, and said with a sad face: "Yan Xigu, you must listen to me later, but Don't let my master discover your abnormality, my master, they, they don't like you very much..."

Yan Xigu is not human, and not everyone can accept this kind of thing.

The few old Taoist priests on Wudao Mountain couldn't accept it even more. Probably what they couldn't accept the most was that their precious apprentice had a relationship with such a person.

The little Taoist was not only worried about Yan Xigu, he was more worried about his masters than he was about Yan Xigu.

After all, after seeing Yan Xigu's strength, the little Taoist really has no reason not to worry about his masters!After watching Yan Xigu absorb death energy, and watching him gnaw a hole in the underworld, the little Taoist has reason to be worried and has every reason to be worried about this matter!

Can he not worry?

The little Taoist looked at Yan Xigu worriedly. Although Yan Xigu never ate the living, if the living annoyed him, Yan Xigu probably would not show mercy.

"What?" Advisor Yan Xi asked, the way the little Taoist stared at him made people uncomfortable.

"Yan Xigu, my masters are actually very good people. Really, they are just a little stubborn, but they are not bad people." The little Taoist priest was still trying to dissuade Yan Xigu.

Yan Xigu saw the little Taoist's intentions, he snorted coldly, and said mockingly: "Don't worry, I won't eat them, I'm not interested in some bad old men." He is not interested in bad old men, but once Being a ghost was equally as tasty to him.

He knew he was venting his anger, but he just couldn't stop his mouth.

The little Taoist was taken aback, he reacted belatedly, he didn't know why he was so outspoken, and actually said such words to Yan Xigu.

Although I have never heard Yan Xigu say it personally, but after getting along with Yan Xigu for so long, the little Taoist priest can also see that Yan Xigu is not satisfied with his current state.He wasn't the type to let his appetite take over his mind.

Annoyance and regret arose in the little Taoist priest's heart. He didn't understand why he said such things to Yan Xigu. He clearly believed in Yan Xigu, and he clearly knew that Yan Xigu was not that kind of person, yet he said that kind of thing... …

The little Taoist was confused, his heart was beating violently, he didn't want to look into Yan Xigu's eyes, because he was afraid of seeing the anger in Yan Xigu's eyes, "I'm sorry, Yan Xigu, I didn't mean that, I believe You and I……"

Yan Xigu didn't care to listen to the words of the little Taoist priest beside him, but said absently and perfunctorily, "It's almost here."

Looking at the back of Yan Xigu walking forward, the little Taoist cursed secretly, he is an idiot...

The little Taoist cursed himself severely, and followed him.

Looking at Yan Xigu's back, the little Taoist hesitated to speak.

Soon, the two came to the gate of Wudao Mountain Taoist Temple.

The situation in the woods is more obvious around Wudao Mountain. With Wudao Mountain Taoist Temple as the center, the flowers, plants and trees around the Taoist Temple are all withered.

When he came, Yan Xigu had already noticed that some of the withered trees had rotted and fell to the ground.

Judging from the traces, they are all new, and should have happened in the last few days.And those book trees all started to rot from the roots of the big trees//, so the rotten roots// couldn't bear the weight of the trunks and stumps, and fell to the ground.

There is a problem with this place. The dead air and miasma spread from the foot of the Taoist temple, and the gap is directly below the Wudaoshan Taoist temple, so the Taoist temple has become the most serious problem.And the town at the foot of Wudao Mountain was poisoned by the miasma and infected with the plague because it was too close to the earth.

When the little Taoist saw that he had reached the gate of the Taoist temple, he also cheered up.He rushed to the Taoist temple first, and kept shouting the names of his masters, "Master, Second Master, I'm back."

The little Taoist rushed into the gate of the Taoist temple, stretched his neck and looked around looking for someone, but after searching for a long time but did not see anyone, the little Taoist immediately began to yell anxiously, "Master?"

"What are you shouting about?" A slightly hoarse voice came from the depths of the Taoist temple.The little Taoist priest's flustered expression immediately turned into excitement, and he walked quickly into the door, still muttering, "Master, what are you doing? I've been calling you for so long, why did you answer me?"

"I'm sorting things inside. How old are you? You still make noise like a child, making people laugh at you." A middle-aged Taoist priest walked out of the house, and time did not leave any trace on his face. Too many traces, coupled with the fitting Taoist robe, made him look very handsome.It's just that the miasma in the woods is too heavy recently, which makes him a little mentally atrophied.

Under his eyes, the big dark circles made him look weak.

"Where did you go recently, your master and I searched everywhere but couldn't find anyone?" Glancing at Yan Xigu, the Taoist priest continued to question the little Taoist priest with a frown.

"I just went to the other side of the mountain to have a look, but I didn't go there." The little Taoist was not good at lying, and whenever he told a lie, his eyeballs would uncontrollably glance around.

"The other side of the mountain?" The Taoist frowned deeper and deeper, obviously not believing the lame lies of the little Taoist.

"Master, let's talk about it later. What about the master and the second master? I brought my friends back, and I will introduce you to each other." The little Taoist ran to Yan Xigu, then pointed to Yan Xigu and said, "I know you from top to bottom. My friend, his name is Yan Xigu." Then he pointed to the Taoist priest and said to Yan Xigu excitedly: "This is my third master, his name is Qiangliang, he is the most powerful person in our Taoist temple! He also taught me Taoism. master of art."

The Taoist priest surnamed Qiang Liang was clearly Taoist Liang whom Yan Xigu had met once before...

"I'm Yan Xigu. I often hear Xiaodao and Yun Chaofei mentioning you. Today I saw you, and you're really very handsome." Yan Xigu stepped forward to say hello.Unexpectedly, the other party glanced at him, turned around and said to the little Taoist priest as if he hadn't seen him, and then turned and left.

The little Taoist looked at the thoughtful Yan Xigu in embarrassment, and explained: "My third master has a weird temper, don't mind. I'll take you in to rest first!"

After Donghua left, there was a moment of silence in the yard again. Yan Xigu didn't move, but was thinking about something while looking at Donghua's leaving back.

Strong beam?

Yan Xigu remembered that he had only read this name in ancient books. Qiang Liang, also known as Jiang Liang, was one of the twelve beasts in the "Dan Nuo" with the head of a tiger and a human body, four hooves and long elbows, capable of holding and manipulating snakes.

There is very little information about Qiang Liang, and Yan Xigu only knows that the other party is one of the twelve beasts.

But I don't know if it's a coincidence that the other party actually took such a name.

Seeing Yan Xigu in a daze, the little Taoist said softly, "Yan Xigu?"

"It's okay, let's go!" Yan Xigu shook his head and said, "How many Taoist priests are there in the Taoist temple?" When Yan Xigu asked the little Taoist priest, his eyes seemed to ask how many dishes are there tonight.

"Including me, there are five people in total. Except for me, the rest are my masters." The little Taoist laughed foolishly while pulling his disheveled hair, his face turned a little rosy, "They are like my parents Similarly, if it wasn’t for them, I would have starved to death on the mountain.”

The little Taoist was picked up from the mountain by his master. Yan Xigu had heard the little Taoist talk about it, but the little Taoist didn't elaborate.

Speaking of Master, the little Taoist was a little worried, "I don't know how they are doing now, I have been away for half a year this time, and I have never been away from them for such a long time before."

"Then I'll go to the living room to drink some tea first, and you go to see your master first!" Yan Xigu said.

The little Taoist stood in the yard for a while, but couldn't hold back his worries about his masters and ran to the backyard.

The little Taoist priest left, and Yan Xigu also made a move immediately. He squeezed the talisman, and the talisman in his hand immediately turned into his appearance, and Yan Xigu himself squeezed his invisible talisman and disappeared in the living room .

Everything is wrong with this Taoist temple, Yan Xigu has noticed this since he stepped into the range of the Taoist temple.There is no anger in this Taoist temple at all!

Outsiders may not know what this means, but Yan Xigu clearly understands - in this Taoist temple, there are no living people at all!

The master of the little Taoist is not human at all.

After being invisible, Yan Xigu followed the little Taoist priest to the backyard. Seeing the little Taoist priest's excited steps, he felt a little depressed. He didn't know that the master who had been by his side for so many years was not the same existence as him.Yan Xi let out a long sigh, it seems that there are many things hidden in the little Taoist priest that he doesn't know.

The little Taoist ran to the backyard excitedly. When he arrived, there were already four people in the courtyard, including the previous Third Master named Qiang Liang.

Several people were talking together, when they saw the little Taoist priest enter the door, all four of them stopped and looked at him.

Seeing them looking over, the little Taoist rushed over excitedly and shouted: "Master!"

One of them stood up and walked to the little Taoist priest. After looking at the little Taoist priest, he asked, "Where did you go to the wild recently, why didn't you inform us?"

The little Taoist tried his best to maintain his composure, and he pulled out a far-fetched smile and said to the Taoist: "Master, I will talk about this later, how are you doing? The plague has spread down the mountain, are you all right? Is there any discomfort? "

The little Taoist was so nervous that he grabbed the oldest Taoist and checked him. He was relieved when he found that his complexion was a little worse, and then he started to check the next one. He was not relieved until he looked at all four of them. , "I'm worried to death, and I'm afraid something will happen to you too."

After being disturbed by the little Taoist priest, the tone of several people became a little more relaxed. The master said: "It's fine if you have nothing to do. If you have nothing to do, go back and rest quickly. Your masters and I still have some things to do. We can talk about things later."

Everyone started to discuss something again, the little Taoist circled around a few people, turned around and left the backyard in frustration, and walked towards Yan Xigu.

As soon as the little Taoist priest left, the few people present stopped talking.After a long silence, Qiang Liang said, "He brought that man back together."

The little Taoist priest and Yan Xigu who were hiding in the dark both had their hearts beat violently.

The little Taoist priest did not go far after leaving the courtyard, but cast an invisibility spell on himself and stayed in the courtyard.

He was worried, worried that his masters would find out about Yan Xigu.

Unexpectedly, his master was still talking about Yan Xigu, and there seemed to be something different from what he was afraid of.

After Qiang Liang finished speaking, the oldest Taoist sighed, looking at the thick layer of clouds in the sky, and sighed, "What is supposed to come will always come, you can't hide, you can't avoid it, but I didn't expect it to happen for thousands of years." I still can't avoid it..."

Seeing what the elder Taoist said, the other two Taoists also began to sigh.

On the contrary, Qiang Liang's face froze, and he said: "Uncle Xiong, Bo Qi, you two will continue to seal that thing, and leave the rest to me and Guihu. We can't go on like this. If that thing is born, it will really be sealed." is going to perish.”
