Even at night, the place in the city that should be lively is still very lively.

For example, this inn is leaning against the side of a downtown street.

On the second floor of this inn, by the window, three monks wearing bareheaded robes are somewhat eye-catching.

It's not because they're monks, it's just because the robes on their bodies can be seen to be the best with the naked eye, and it's normal to be looked at twice.

"Three masters, the guests you were waiting for have arrived. ”

Suddenly, a junior two people were holding tea in front of the three of them.

Xiao Er took a tight step, his hands were also steady, and every muscle in his body was tense, for fear that an oversight would anger these three masters who seemed to be not easy to mess with.

And behind Xiao Er, another monk holding a Buddhist bead walked up.

The three monks looked at the fourth, and one of them smiled and got up.

"Senior Brother Pei Hong, you are finally here, we have been sitting here for almost an hour, and I thought you would not come tonight. ”

The monk who got up opened his mouth and said to the fourth monk.

And the fourth monk is none other than the disciple of the Buddhist temple who went to kill the Dragon King of Sanjiang with Daoist Xuanzhong and Academy Yan Kun, but failed, Pei Hong.

Pei Hong bowed his hand to the three monks.

These three people are all his senior brothers.

So, the four monks each sat on one side of the square table.

The teapot was placed in the center of the table, and several cups were placed in front of them, still steaming, but none of them touched them.

"Senior brother, thank you for coming to pick me up. ”

Pei Hong was the first to speak.

And the monk who had just gotten up immediately arrived: "Senior Brother Pei Hong, what are you talking about, you come out to do big things, as senior brother, we naturally have to pick you up." ”

"Senior Brother Pei Hong, in this way, has that matter been completed?"

Without waiting for Pei Hong to say more, the monk on his left opened his mouth and asked.

When asked about this, Pei Hong seemed to hesitate, and the smile that was originally on his face gradually fell.

Seeing that his expression changed but did not answer immediately, the three monks glanced at each other.

"Senior Brother Pei Hong, what happened?"

The monk on Pei Hong's right said in a low voice.

As he spoke, his gaze casually glanced around, as if he was observing the surrounding situation.

At this time, the eyes of the three of them all converged on Pei Hong.

After Pei Hong's expression sank, he finally said with a sad face: "I'm sorry, I failed, I couldn't ...... I didn't ......," he said.

The way he looked really made the three monks frown.

"Senior Brother Pei Hong, what do you mean by this?"

Monk Zuo asked.

The right monk also leaned a little closer, and said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Pei Hong, do you mean...... It ran away?"

“...... Be. ”

Pei Hongyu nodded hesitantly.

And at this moment, the monk who got up earlier sighed and said, "I didn't expect things to develop like this, isn't this the will of heaven?"

"Senior Brother Pei Hong. But at this time, the right monk still asked, "What was the situation at that time, and why did it happen?"

Pei Hong looked at the monk on the right, and then his eyes walked past the other two monks.

In the end, Pei Hongcai looked at the teacup in front of him and said, "There are some things that I can't be sure about, but apart from this possibility, there is no other reason that can make sense." ”

"What possibility?"

The three monks all looked at Pei Hong.

Pei Hong looked at them, and after a pause, he spoke: "Is it someone who deliberately wants to release it, for the sake of the disaster, for the ......" At this point, he lowered his voice as much as possible, "For the sake of the world, at that time, it was obvious that he only needed to sit in the seal, but who knew that a thief was suddenly killed, and after that, the Xuanzhong of the Taoist Sect abandoned the formation and rushed forward, which eventually led to the collapse of the formation, giving the demon a chance to take advantage of." ”

"Is that so?"

The left and right monks spoke in unison.

And then, the monk who had just gotten up frowned, looked at Pei Hong seriously, and asked, "Senior Brother Pei Hong, is this true?"

His voice was neither light nor heavy.

It seemed to have lowered his voice, but he could still hear the people at the tables around him.

"Senior brother, Master has already taught us that if a monk doesn't speak, I won't lie, you know that. Pei Hong also looked at the monk very seriously at this time.

The monk paused, and then immediately got up.

"No, we've got to get out of nowhere. ”

After getting up, the monk said so.

The words fell, and the other three people also got up.

And after they got up, their eyes swept over the surroundings, and the eyes that were originally glanced at them intentionally or unintentionally were also retracted at this moment.

So, the four monks glanced at each other, left the tea money, and walked down the second floor of the inn without saying a word.

And after they left completely, the second floor was still quiet for a long time, and finally after one of them breathed a sigh of relief, the tense atmosphere in the whole building eased.

"I was nervous just now, and those masters didn't look easy to mess with, but fortunately nothing went wrong. In the corner, a junior touched his chest and breathed.

And the other junior next to him echoed with a smile: "It's okay now, you can be regarded as a person who has experienced a big scene, I think you can mention it to the shopkeeper later, add some monthly money or something." ”

"You can pull it down, that peel can add me monthly money is my ancestor burning high incense. The first little two breathed smoothly, so he just stopped, "Don't make noise, hurry up and greet the guests." ”

As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the stairs.

At this time, a young man walked up the stairs, and Xiao Er immediately stepped up to meet him.

The young man was arranged by Xiao Er to the position where the four monks were originally sitting, and he beckoned another Xiao Er to clean up the mess on the table together.

"Xiao Er, the four cups of tea on this table are still hot, and why don't you seem to have drunk a sip?"

The young man looked at the teacup and asked Xiao Er, who was cleaning up the table.

Xiao Er sloppied his eyes, and then smiled: "What does the guest think, how do I know Xiao Er, this objective person is really good at laughing." But don't worry, the tea in our store is the best in the city, and those customers may have something urgent. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Er had already withdrawn the four cups of tea.

Smack.

And just as Xiao Er was about to turn around and leave, a sound that was buckled to the table immediately attracted Xiao Er's attention.

It was a spirit crystal.

"I'd like to ask you about something. ”

The young man looked at Xiao Er.

Xiao Er looked at Lingjing.

"If you have any commands, please say it, and the little one must know everything. As he said this, Xiao Er's hand had already reached out to the spirit crystal.

The young man gave the spirit crystal to Xiao Er, and then asked, "Just now, what are the origin of the four monks sitting here?"

This question, Xiao Er was taken aback suddenly.

Xiao Er, who was still greedy, instantly lowered his face, and immediately pushed Lingjing back in front of the young man: "Objective, where do I know about this kind of thing, you better ask others." ”

After that, the two little two slipped away as if hiding from the disaster.
