The three-legged golden toad is recorded in the "Records of Experiences on the Four Continents", a kind of demon beast that uses human desires as food. Different from the auspicious rui that can absorb wealth and ward off evil spirits in human folk mythology, the three-legged golden toad recorded in the book is closer to the role of demons in various novels.

The three-legged golden toad feeds on human desires while possessing the ability to fulfill any money-related wishes. Therefore, Jin Toad will use his ability to help humans realize their wishes, and then feed on the desires that arise after the wishes are fulfilled.

Of course, if you want the three-legged golden toad to realize its wishes, human beings also need to pay corresponding cause and effect as compensation, such as changing from a human to an animal.

"There will only be one between the three-legged golden toad heaven and earth, and it will live and die together with human desires. Chu Li asked Mu Xi to sit down quietly, "As long as human beings still have a desire for money, it can continue to be reborn." Since you can't kill it, you might as well listen to what it has to say. ”

Seeing that Mu Xi finally put down the sword in his hand, the three-legged golden toad finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly rubbed his hands on his head constantly, turning himself back to the appearance of a young man, and it seemed to hate his original appearance.

However, what surprised Chu Li was that the cultivation of the three-legged golden toad in front of him was much lower than he imagined, because in this materialistic era, it was simply easy to improve his cultivation by sucking desire.

"Tell me why so many animals are being collected. Chu Li propped up his right cheek and raised his eyebrows, "What you are doing now is indeed intolerable, if you can say the reason, I can consider it and let you live." ”

Although Chu Li's tone of voice was quite relaxed, the three-legged golden toad could clearly feel that there were hundreds of terrifying evil spirits in Chu Li's body that were looking at him, and he was afraid that if he said the wrong word, he would be eaten up immediately.

The black shadows of those evil spirits behind Chu Li were so frightened that the three-legged golden toad almost urinated out. Originally, today he thought he could hug a thigh, but in fact, he had a tiger on the shelf.

"On... Immortals, I said, I said..."

It turned out that this three-legged golden toad was only more than two hundred years old now, and for a three-legged golden toad with a normal lifespan of three thousand years, more than two hundred years old was no different from a child.

Before this three-legged golden toad opened its mind, it was in a casino and was raised by the daughter of the casino owner. The owner of the casino also hopes that this strange-shaped toad will bring good luck to his field.

For a three-legged golden toad who has not opened his spiritual wisdom, it can indeed play a role in absorbing wealth and warding off evil spirits. However, for a three-legged golden toad that has opened its spiritual intelligence, if it does not have a strong enough life grid to raise, it will definitely suffer.

After opening the spiritual intelligence, the three-legged golden toad must suck the desires of humans, otherwise it will starve to death, so even if it is out of biological instinct, it will cut humans.

Fortunately, the gamblers in the casino are a desire generator, as long as they use their ability to make those gamblers make a small profit, it can have a full meal, and that place has no intention of heaven for the three-legged golden toad.

"Wait. Mu Xi interrupted the other party's words, "Why don't you just eat the desires of the gamblers, but help them win money first?"

"Because the three-legged golden toad's eating is a report and a report. Chu Li explained, "Only by helping human beings pay the price and realize the desire that arises after fulfilling their wishes, can it be sucked." The desires that are generally entangled in the human heart are tantamount to poison to it. ”

The three-legged golden toad nodded in agreement, but his expression quickly became lost.

Because at that time, the three-legged golden toad did not realize what gamblers' constant wins meant to a casino.

In less than five years, the casino declared bankruptcy, the casino owner and his daughter left the city where they originally lived, and the three-legged golden toad that had been raised for many years was finally abandoned and began a wandering life of its own.

In order to find the girl at the beginning, the three-legged golden toad has been to a lot of places, and he has seen too many people. But its growing size could no longer support its desire to hide and eat humans, so he built such an ancient mansion to hide himself.

But as a monster, it always has to forage for food, and the golden toad, who has no way to go out at will, thought of the news about strange stories that he had secretly seen on TV before. So a plan to seduce humans with strange stories came into being.

"So you've fulfilled those people's wishes. Mu Xi pointed to the animals around him, "Turn them all into animals?"

"It's not me who turned them into that, it's them who turned themselves into animals. ”

"Huh?"

"The realization of human desires is also to be repaid, and after I realize my wishes for human beings, in addition to letting me use the desires generated as food, I also have to pay cause and effect as compensation. ”

The three-legged golden toad stretched out his index finger and explained: "Judging from the current degree of human desire for money, it may take a day to catch a cold if you get a deposit of 1,000 dry coins, which is compensation. And the desire brought by a thousand dry coins is enough for me to fill my stomach for a day or two. ”

The three-legged golden toad sighed and said, "It's just that I didn't expect that human desires are too unfathomable. Like the husky over there, he made a wish to me to become a multimillionaire and pursue her goddess. I told him very clearly, and everyone here, that if you fulfill a high wish, you will become an animal for a long time after the wish is granted.

But humanity either chooses not to believe or chooses to gamble. Some, like that parrot, voluntarily became parrots for fifty years in order to be 10,000 runes a day. In the end, I fulfilled their wishes, but the moment my desires were devoured by me, under the influence of cause and effect, they also became animals. ”

Listening to the whole story, Mu Xi also sighed. Money is a good slave, but it is a bad master, and when human beings become slaves to money, the price and lessons will be immeasurable.

Seeing that Mu Xi was silent, Chu Li asked curiously: "Then how did you keep these humans in captivity." ”

"Because I was raised by humans, I love humans. ”

The three-legged golden toad squeezed his hand, "At first, after they became animals, most of them couldn't accept it and chose to commit suicide. I couldn't bear it, so I gave them soul hints and took care of them until they became human again. ”

"The dog we found in Aesop Park. ”

"That's when he suddenly broke through the soul suggestion and crashed to his death in a tree in the park. The three-legged golden toad lowered his head and said, "At that time, he proposed to his girlfriend by the lake, and I helped him do it." Only now, his girlfriend has married someone else. ”

Sometimes it's not clear who is right and who is wrong, is the three-legged golden toad wrong? But it's just for a full stomach. In the end, he is willing to bother to take care of human beings with insatiable desires, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

In the end, this kind of thing can only be summed up in one sentence, one is willing to fight and one is willing to suffer.

"Hmm...... The story is well told, and I like it. Chu Li stretched, he patted Mu Xi, who was in a daze, and said, "How is it, the eldest lady of the Mu family." That's the truth, what are you going to do with it. ”

Mu Xi, who came back to his senses, said as a matter of course: "Of course, it is to hand over it and the things here to the Monk Inspection Bureau." ”

"Poof!"

The treatment in the tea almost spit out the tea: "Mu Xi, is your eldest child filled with the knowledge of nine years of compulsory education? I know too little about the monk's thoughts and history, do you know what the three-legged golden toad means to a monk?"

The three-legged golden toad also raised his hand at this time and said, "Thirty years ago, I was caught and sent to the Monk's Inspection Bureau, but the next year, that inspection bureau had a disagreement with the inspection bureau of another sub-bureau, and finally they both died. ”

A three-legged golden toad that is still a juvenile is no different from "Tang monk meat" for monks, not to mention the skin mucus that can be used to refine medicine and make pills, nor the aura of wealth that can be used to make gold every day, just say that it is too late to stew it directly, and it can improve several layers of cultivation.

If it is obtained by that financial family and can stand on its feet, then this consortium can basically lead the world's economic trend, which is quite terrifying.

It seemed that because of being ridiculed by Chu Li, Mu Xi's face was a little red, and she turned her head and said, "Then what do you say." ”

"That's your Friars and the Inspectorate, and I'm the one who came to listen to the story. ”

"That'...... That one. The three-legged golden toad, who shrank aside with some embarrassment, said, "Haven't you considered my feelings?"

Chu Li crossed his hands in front of his chest, "Tell me about it, but you have to know that no matter how kind-hearted the demon beast is, for the human world of this era, the demon beast that has become a spirit is not allowed to exist." ”

"I actually know that in the current human world, monsters are not allowed to exist, and even if I can continue to be reborn, I will not escape the fate of being slaughtered by others. But in the human world, I still have one wish I want to fulfill. ”

The three-legged golden toad took out a black and white photo that looked very broken and said: "I have always wanted to find the descendants of the girl who raised me, and I have been asking my friends to find it all these years, but there has been no news."

The agent of the underworld, the king of the human world, can you help me fulfill this wish? As long as my wish is fulfilled, I will voluntarily return to the underworld, and there will be no more three-legged golden toads in the human world. ”

"I refuse!" Chu Li said without hesitation.

"Huh?" Mu Xi and the three-legged golden toad didn't think that Chu Li would refuse so simply.

"It's too much trouble for this kind of thing, I've had enough of it lately. Chu Li waved his hand, stood up and prepared to leave, "Mu Xi, you let Xiao Fan's old man bring the golden toad back, he has a way to deal with it." The rest of the animals can be brought back to the Monks' Inspectorate. ”

"Hmph. Mu Xi pouted unhappily after hearing Chu Li's arrangement, "Why don't you go yourself, you didn't want me to come in the end." ”

However, when Mu Xi said this, Chu Li had already walked out of the hall, so he couldn't hear a word of what Mu Xi said.

And it just so happened that at this time, Chu Li's mobile phone that could connect the Three Realms rang, and it was a call from a spiritual realm agent......
