Chapter 145: Lurking Around
On the way back, Luo Yuyan first sent a transmission paper crane to the rest of the disciples, reminding everyone to pay attention to safety, and try to return to the Taoist temple before dark, and discuss important matters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The four of them didn't want to delay, so they found a remote place to go to Edgeworth when they left Shangyong City. The people of Shangyong City seemed to know that it was not safe outside, and in the evening, there were no more people in the Taoist temple, and the four of them fell directly into the backyard and went straight to Daochang Wu's residence.
Wu Daochang was copying the scriptures, when he heard someone knocking on the door, he asked who it was, and after hearing Luo Yuyan's voice, he quickly got up and opened the door, leading the four of them to the hall on the side.
"The four immortal elders, but what do you need help with?" Wu Daochang asked.
Luo Yuyan said straight to the point: "Daoist Wu, I hope you will tell me the truth, what is the matter with monsters eating people outside Shangyong City?" I wanted to talk about it before, but because of this incident? ”
When Daoist Wu heard this, he put away his smile and said slowly: "It seems that several immortal elders have learned about this. That's right, I was really hesitant to tell a few immortal elders before. ”
"Is there anything hidden in this?" Shali asked.
Wu Daochang shook his head and said: "This Shangyong City has always been peaceful and peaceful, at that time there were many people who specially chose the evening time to come to this Taoist temple to worship incense and admire the moon, but just half a month ago, a family admired the moon and returned to the city, but disappeared on the road, the government thought it was an ordinary robber, so they sent officials to search the mountain, but there was nothing during the day. When the night came, innocent people disappeared, I took the Taoist boy to investigate, and the result was ......"
"Something happened again?" Lou Qingxiao said.
"My little Taoist boy was unfortunately eaten by a monster...... "Wu Daochang wiped his tears as he talked about it.
Luo Yuyan said softly, "So, you know what kind of monster it is, right? ”
"That monster is big, big, it's a beast, I heard a whistle, someone should be whistling, I guess someone is controlling this monster." Wu Daochang said carefully.
Everyone frowned unconsciously, if it was just a monster appearing, it would be fine, it might have strayed into here. But if someone drives it, I'm afraid things will be more complicated.
"Dao Chief, you have to tell me everything you know, so I can find a way to deal with that monster." Luo Yuyan's guide Wu Daochang.
Wu Daochang was still a little excited, and when he mentioned the monster, his whole person trembled unconsciously, but he was afraid that he would be frightened a lot. "At that time, I was really scared stupid, and I almost crawled back with a roll, and I didn't dare to mention it again, just pity the little boy......"
"Really didn't see anything?" Yun Mu on the side confirmed again.
Daoist Wu regained his composure and said, "Poor Dao only knows so much...... When the immortals came to the Taoist temple before, Poor Dao wanted to tell the immortal chief, but he didn't know how to talk about it, and the prefect in the city seemed to have found an immortal chief to subdue demons and eliminate demons, so it was not easy to mention it again. ”
"Daoist Wu is too worried, if that real person can't solve this matter, we will definitely take action, and we won't do anything about it."
Wu Daochang immediately stood up and thanked him: "Immortal elders, I will bow to Wu Zhiyuan first." ”
"Dao Chief, let's rest first, I'll take my disciples to have a look tonight."
The four of them came out of Daochang Wu's room, and it was already dark outside. The moonlight in the night sky is just right, standing in the courtyard of the backyard, blowing a slightly cool breeze, it is really suitable to put on the wine table to admire the moon and have a drink.
Yun Mu suddenly stopped, and the other three turned around and looked at Yun Mu, not knowing what was wrong with her.
"Sister Fairy, why don't you leave?" Sha Li looked at Yun Mu and looked around again, "Did you find anything?" Sha Li dodged behind Luo Yuyan.
Yun Mu's eyes were full of inquiry. "You ...... Why didn't you let me test that loose practice at that time? ”
“…… It turned out to be because of this......" Lou Qingxiao said with a smile.
Sha Li walked out from behind Luo Yuyan and went to pull Yun Mu. "Because this place is different from the mountain gate, it's not that you can be tempted if you try it."
"Why? I didn't want to hurt him, maybe he was very good, and it was possible that I couldn't beat him. Yun Mu said.
The three of them glanced at each other, and it seemed that this Yun Mu didn't know how to be flexible. Lou Qingxiao said: "Because of this, you can't try it casually." You may be able to show mercy, but people may not appreciate it, you think it's a temptation, but people still think that the enemy has come to seek revenge. ”
Yun Mu stopped talking, but obviously still had some doubts in his heart.
Luo Yuyan stepped forward and said, "For example, today Shali wore a dress that you thought was ugly, and you saw it, what would you do?" Will you come forward and tell her? ”
Sha Li rolled her eyes at Luo Yuyan. Yun Mu thought for a while and said, "Perhaps...... No...... If she likes it...... My opinion doesn't matter. ”
Luo Yuyan continued: "In the same way, a strange casual cultivator accepted the invitation of the prefect to slay demons and eliminate demons, do you want to try other people's cultivation first?" ”
"I ...... Understood......" Yun Mu nodded.
Sha Li hugged Yun Mu's arm and said: "All the rules outside are that if you can, you won't make a move, you are so strong, you have to be obscure." This is not like being in the mountain gate, everyone is a senior brother and sister, you can compete with a sword, and there will be no misunderstanding after the competition. But not outside, beware of villains. Besides, there are people beside them. ”
"I see." Yun Mu nodded earnestly.
Sha Li pointed at Lou Qingxiao and said, "Next time, you will look for him, he knows this kind of thing best." ”
Yun Mu threw a little reverent glance at Lou Qingxiao, who was about to have a nosebleed at that time......
The four of them stayed in the square and looked around, except for Wu Daochang's room, which was still a little bright, and the lights in the other little Daotong's rooms had been turned off, I was afraid that it was also affected by the monster, so I tried to rest as soon as possible.
The other disciples have already rushed back one after another. Qin Mianzhong and several disciples had slightly melancholy expressions, and it seemed that they also knew about the rumors of monsters outside the city.
"Second son, is it because of the monster that you are in such a hurry to find us back?" Qin Mian was the first to ask.
Luo Yuyan said: "It seems that everyone knows about it. I have already gone to Daoist Wu, and after asking in detail, there is no useful news. ”
Senior Sister Zhou said: "The city said that the prefect spent a lot of money to invite a master to subdue the monster, is this credible?" If it's true, do we still need to intervene? ”
"I'm afraid that the master is in vain." Lou Qingxiao couldn't help but snicker when he thought that Fang Cai Yunmu had to compete with others, "We saw it from a distance on the other side of the Water Pavilion, saying that it was to kill demons and eliminate demons, but we were still drinking and listening to music." ”
These words caused the disciples of the Mountain Sect to chuckle. "It seems to be a cheater." Senior Brother Song said.
"What do you think about the second son? Do we need to get rid of that monster? Senior Brother Li asked.
Luo Yuyan said cautiously: "Tonight, we can lurk first and see what that monster is." Again, let's try how the master who was invited is cultivating, so it's better to let that master open the way for us first. Tonight, everything is subject to my orders, and you must not act privately. ”
"Yes!" Everyone clenched their fists and said.
The woods are high and dense, and the sound of the wind is like a whimper. The people at the mountain gate stood at the edge of the woods, waiting for Luo Yuyan's order.
"In a group of three or four, you decide for yourself, and then disperse into the forest to search, once you encounter a monster, you can see the monster's face clearly, don't act rashly. Remember not to resist the sword, and not to expose it. Luo Yuyan emphasized again and again.
"Second son, rest assured." All the disciples clasped their fists and said, everyone sacrificed the fairy sword in their hands for safety, and after dividing themselves into groups, they touched the depths of the forest.
Sha Li and Lou Qingxiao, the two weakest cultivators, naturally wanted to follow the strongest Luo Yuyan, and Yun Mu didn't move to stand beside them. In a few moments, the four of them were still standing at the edge of the forest.
Originally, Luo Yuyan didn't let Sha Li and Lou Qingxiao participate, but neither of them would stay in the Taoist temple. It's hard to come out of the trial, how can you do it if you don't participate in person, not to mention that tonight is just to explore the truth and reality, and you won't make a move as a last resort. In the end, Luo Yuyan also felt that it was more reassuring to take these two people with him.
The four of them glanced at each other and stepped into the forest. The soft ground is full of dead branches and rotten leaves, and Shali walks with a skirt all the way, which normal people will not set foot in.
"Look, is that person Chen Zhenren?" Lou Qingxiao's eyes were sharp, and he pointed to a figure who had just walked into the woods and said. There was also a person outside the forest, and when he saw Chen Zhenren walking into the woods, the official almost crawled away, and it seemed that he was also afraid of here.
"It's true, he's really here, I guess he's still a little cultivated." Shali said.
Luo Yuyan motioned to the two of them to whisper: "Go, let's follow him." ”
Chen Zhenren walked slowly towards the depths of the forest, and the four of them secretly followed him, and they could smell the smell of wine on him from a distance. He also slurred his mouth: "A bunch of fools ......"
Chen Zhenren took two steps, and suddenly leaned on the tree and vomited, and the voice felt sick to his stomach.
Except for Luo Yuyan, who was overjoyed and angry, the other three couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses and roll their eyes.
Chen Zhenren vomited, finally comfortable, gave himself a breath, looked up at the deep woods, and looked a little scared: "Grandma, you really sent me here." ”
Chen Zhenren took a few steps forward, but it seemed that he couldn't walk, so he casually found a big tree and sat down, picked a comfortable position and leaned against the tree to get drunk.
"Immortal...... I think we'd better go alone......" Sha Li glanced at Chen Zhenren over there, "This sleeper, snoring is starting to bubble." ”
Lou Qingxiao covered his nose: "The main thing is that the smell of his wine is really unpleasant, and he can stink to death from ten miles and eight miles." ”
Yun Mu didn't bother to look over there: "It's just a money cheater." ”
"Let's go, don't waste time here." Luo Yuyan finally made a decision.
The four of them continued to grope towards the north, and at some point, the wind around them seemed to get louder. Sha Li hugged Yun Mu beside him, and Yun Mu was cautious and held the Glaive Sword in his hand.
Suddenly, there was a roar not far behind him, and it should be the monster that people were talking about! The direction of the sound is exactly where they have just passed! (To be continued.) )
