Hua Jiuxi touched Hu Su, who was sleeping in his arms, and said, "No wonder its hair is golden, and the Buddha loves this color the most." ”

"Sandalwood." He Tianlong said, "That's the name of this thing, you see." As he spoke, he took out a long scroll out of nowhere and slowly spread it out. Hua Jiuxi saw the golden beast painted on the frontispiece, although it was larger, its appearance was exactly the same as Hu Su.

"Legend has it that King Brahma wanted to use all the incense in the world to support the Buddha, so he specially used his divine power to create this kind of monster called 'Zhan Tan Beast'. They are all collecting fragrant flowers and herbs and devouring them. Although the flowers and leaves have been digested, the aroma has accumulated like Neidan—and it has lasted for hundreds of years, making the first divine incense of the four continents. ”

After hearing this, Hua Jiuxi hurriedly asked, "So, do you want to kill them when you take out this incense pill?" ”

He Tianlong hurriedly shook his head: "The killing precept is the first precept of the Buddhist family, how can it be?" ”

"Oh, too." Hua Jiuxi frowned and thought, "That enemy just doesn't want to leave a mouth alive and leak the rumors." But why kill this incense pill? - Sir, what is the function of the scent of the sandalwood beast? ”

"I don't know this, but I just know that the effect of this fragrance is extremely strong and far, and it can summon the Dharma Protector Heavens, is this a great use?" He Tianlong said.

"It's good to break people in zazen." Jiaqin suddenly said, "I feel that my meditation skills are good, but I am disturbed by the aroma - from this point of view, this sandalwood beast is more like the demon king used to bewitch the Buddha." ”

Everyone was puzzled, Hua Jiuxi first put the controversy aside, and then said to He Tianlong: "The case must be more than this, Mr. He, we also need you to provide some living habits of the sandalwood beast." Most importantly, how many Sandalwood Beasts are still active in our area at the moment - the enemy will most likely continue to attack them! ”

"Okay, okay." He Tianlong said, "This is recorded in the scroll, and the sandalwood beast is an extremely high-level monster. From the moment they are born, they can become human children in March and May, and they are extremely talented. They would spontaneously travel around collecting fragrant flowers and herbs, so in the early years, most of the sandalwood beasts turned into big merchants. ”

"Then it seems that the deceased we met is one of the more failures." Hua Jiuxi said.

"Otherwise, although the sandalwood beast is naturally fragrant—there are always individual ones, isn't it?" He Tianlong said, "I remember that there are still a few sandalwood beasts hidden in human society, but they can't be retrieved for a while. If I find the list, I'll deliver it to the house myself. ”

Although Hua Jiuxi was anxious, he could only say "yes" and asked what the characteristics of the person turned into by the sandalwood beast were.

"Don't you have this little beast?" He Tianlong said, "The sandalwood beast can be identified by its aroma, and it can be cultivated as an adult." At that time, it was a living compass. ”

Hua Jiuxi nodded, and asked a few more questions about the eating and drinking habits of the sandalwood beast, and He Tianlong patiently answered.

On the way back from the three of them, Xiang Ling saw Hua Jiuxi's worried expression, so he asked, "Don't think you have gained much?" ”

Hua Jiuxi spread his hands: "It's better than nothing!" At present, a task has been set - to protect the sandalwood beast, no matter what the enemy's purpose is to seek the incense pill, whatever they insist on, we oppose! No matter what means are used, whether it is in the sky, the ground, or the water, you must play with them to the end. His words were resolute and tired.

Liwei has a heavy responsibility and is tired for a long time!

Hua Jiuxi stopped complaining, because she really didn't want everyone to worry. I deliberately told some light-hearted stories, and I wanted to walk down the snowy mountain like this - but I didn't think that the three of them encountered a ghost hitting the wall, and they had to go around a few circles to get out - it was already night.

Jiaqin himself is a monster on the snowy mountain, and he actually found a way, Hua Jiuxi thought that it was not possible, but he couldn't see anything strange. I had to find a Buddhist temple in the middle of the mountain to live temporarily, this temple is called Xizhou Temple, which is a small temple of Tantric descendants.

The abbot's old monk took a few juniors and more than a dozen apprentices and cleared a guest room overnight for the three of them to live in. I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, Hua Jiuxi saw that there were no miscellaneous people around, so I asked Jiaqin if there was anything strange about the monks.

"As far as I know, there is indeed a small temple like this here, and the name of the old monk corresponds to the rumors." Jiaqin said.

"Is there anything inappropriate in their speech and behavior?" Hua Jiuxi asked again.

Jiaqin looked up and thought for a moment before he said, "It doesn't seem to be - even if there is a slight accent, it may be a dialect." Does the gentleman suspect that the old and young monks in this temple are all enemies pretending? ”

Hua Jiuxi shook his head and said, "It's really strange to get lost this time - although I didn't see the demonic energy, I really hit the wall." And when we got lost, there happened to be a monastery - I had to be a little suspicious. ”

"Anyway, tomorrow the snow will be up, if the sir can trust me, then lie down in peace—I'll keep vigil for you." Jiaqin said.

Hua Jiuxi was also unceremonious, saying, "It's hard work." ”

The temple is in disrepair, and the cold wind outside can always find a gap to pour into. Hua Jiuxi's physique was not as good as the two of his peers, so he had to curl up in the quilt and endure it.

Because the taboo of adventuring outside is to divide the troops, so although Xiang Ling is a girl, she also stays in the same bedroom with them. Fortunately, this room is not crowded, and Xiang Ling's bedding is far away from them.

One night of wind and snow, Hua Jiuxi had two or three nightmares and woke up. When he got up, he saw Jiaqin sitting at the door and said softly, "It's dawn." ”

Seeing this, Hua Jiuxi immediately got up and said, "It's better to leave early-so as not to change in vain." ”

Jiaqin saw that Hua Jiuxi was going to say goodbye, although he thought that this was not a gift for guests, but now is an extraordinary time, and he can't take care of it much. Xiang Ling heard the two of them talking, and also agreed to rush - so he leaned on and climbed the mountain to the flat ground.

"Since I came and left, I have spoken a total of thirty-five words to this group of monks, and none of them revealed our information, so I did a good job." Hua Jiuxi said against the bright sun.

"Then you're the talker the most." Xiang Ling said, "I said seven sentences. ”

"Five sentences." Jiaqin responded, "Of course, it does not include those I translate for me. ”

"Tsk, you two are stuffy gourds, of course you can't compare with you." Hua Jiuxi said, "But I always feel that I will definitely come to this temple again in the future......

was about to return to Huajiuxi Mansion, and when he saw that Jiaqin had not left halfway, he said, "Big brother, do you want to go home with us?" ”

Jiaqin nodded and said, "Well, if the enemy is active in the mountain city, I'm afraid it won't be too late for me to come from the snowy mountain." So I planned to find a random mountain rock to live here. ”

"Then ......," Hua Jiuxi pinched his chin and said, "You can go to my senior brother's place—it's not far from our house and the Moths Club, and he's an old man there, and it's very clean." How good it is that you don't bother each other. ”

Jiaqin is a rootless person in the mountain city, and he naturally accepts that Hua Jiuxi can provide a place to live.

Hua Jiuxi saw that Jiaqin didn't mention things like rent, and thought to himself that he didn't have this concept, so it didn't matter - he lived in a cave anyway.

In addition, thinking that there were too many chores in front of him, he had no intention of taking care of Hu Su, a young sandalwood beast, so he also wanted to send it to the Worm Tianzi. There are many fragrant flowers and herbs in the mountains of the Insect Heavenly Son, and they just serve as food for the sandalwood beasts.

In this way, Hua Jiuxi and the three of them rode locust horses to the insect Tianzi, and the insect Tianzi saw that this battle was not small, and thought that there was something earth-shattering, so he came barefoot.

Hua Jiuxi mentioned Jiaqin's temporary residence to the Worm Tianzi, and the Worm Genius saw that this person was majestic and ancient-of course he did not refuse. Immediately gave the little beast Tofu to him, and the insect Tianzi snorted and said, "Do you think this is your nursery?" Moreover, it is not good luck that this thing is separated from the dead. ”

Hua Jiuxi knew that this old man had a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and threw all the cherished herbs he detained to the insect Tianzi as tobacco leaves. The insect Tianzi eats people with a short mouth, and besides, this is originally a relic of the sandalwood beast in his arms, so he doesn't complain.

"Then He Dian's He Tianlong He Chaofeng said that if the sandalwood beast is raised for a while, it will be able to cultivate into a human form in March and May, and I don't know if it's true or fake." Hua Jiuxi said.

"I'm looking for a way, so that he can become a little boy in a month, and there is someone around him to talk to-you kid is ruthless, and you have pulled away all the newcomers we sent, where is the dignity of me, the head of the house?" The more he talked, the more angry he became, and he couldn't stop coughing.

"It's not like there's not enough manpower." Hua Jiuxi said, "There are even fewer people who are capable and trustworthy......

Xiang Ling raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Hua Jiuxi immediately added: "Like Miss Xiangling, who is capable and trustworthy." ”

The insect Tianzi vomited out the grumbling in his stomach and said nothing more. Immediately, he mixed the nectar syrup with water and gave it to the sandalwood beast, and the little beast laughed like a human child.

After arranging a little, Hua Jiuxi and Xiang Ling returned to the mansion, first wrote a letter to inform the people of the Moth Society of the information they had obtained so far, and then opened the letters uploaded by the Moth Club in the past two days.

Luo Yue detected something amazing—100% the enemy's behavior.

"How is this word crooked?" Hua Jiuxi saw a kind of large and small and somewhat ugly "Banqiao Body" piled up with letterheads—the paper material of this letterhead was very expensive, and he was blind.

"Luo Yue's cultural level is not high, and the words he writes are like this." Xiang Ling said, "If you can't recognize it completely, I can read it for my husband." ”

Hua Jiuxi tried it, but finally gave up, so he let Xiang Ling do it for him: "Xiang Ling, you have beaten Luo Yue, but it seems that the sisterhood is very good?" ”

"We're always at war and get used to it." Xiang Ling read the whole article in that indifferent voice—but Luo Yue's language was not logical—that is, he was repeatedly emphasizing that the enemy had released a lot of monsters in the air, which had been intercepted by the army of Gu Xuanniao, and Hua Jiuxi needed to confirm it.

Without further ado, Hua Jiuxi has to go out again. But he didn't know where Luo Yue's stronghold was, so he asked Xiang Ling.

"Heavenly." Xiang Ling pointed to the ceiling.

"What do you mean...... Suspended in the sky? Hua Jiuxi was taken aback, Shaoguangcheng didn't seem to have such technology.

"That's right, suspended in the air, a place that no one can easily approach." Xiang Ling said, "Except for the gods, no one has the ability to destroy them. So they have always been the only ones who attack others, and no one else has attacked them. ”

"How tall?" Hua Jiuxi asked.

"After the invention of airplanes, humans have only been able to get a little closer." Xiang Ling said.
