Chapter 144: Man-eating monsters

Luo Yuyan didn't mean to hide the purpose of this trip, but he has always been cautious when traveling, and some unnecessary troubles can be saved. The people of the Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info followed Luo Yuyan all the way, and they learned more or less about his character, and they also felt that the less troublesome things the better.

After Qin Mianzhong reminded him, Daochang Wu did restrain himself, and simply talked about the matter of Shangyong City, and did not ask about other things.

followed Daochang Wu to the small hall in the inner courtyard, which is used to entertain all kinds of distinguished guests on weekdays. Sha Li sat on the big chair, rubbing the wooden armrest, Lou Qingxiao sat beside him, although his expression did not change, but he also felt more than emotion in his heart.

"Stinky girl, your movements are too obvious." Lou Qingxiao whispered.

Shali also realized that it was too rude to do this, so she quickly sat upright, and every move she made when she went out was the face of Shanmen. "Turnip strips, isn't this chair expensive? I feel good to the touch. ”

Lou Qingxiao said in a low voice: "Look at the two chairs that sit on the first one, they are the ones where Jade Yan and Dao Chang are sitting." ”

Sha Li heard the prestige, the chair was wide, as if he wanted to retain the original wooden appearance, and there was not too much carving and processing, and the whole body was black, faintly glowing with purple luster. Although Shali doesn't understand, he knows at a glance that it is not ordinary.

"That...... It should be more expensive...... "Shali asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's almost the best rosewood, I only have three at home, one is in my father's study, and the other two are in the main hall, I didn't expect that there will be two superb in a Taoist temple, it seems that those royal relatives are not less here to donate incense money."

After Lou Qingxiao's reminder, Sha Li forgot about it again, feeling that the flower pots in this room were priceless. This long arrangement is really generous.

Wu Daochang still introduced this place enthusiastically, Luo Yuyan nodded politely, and Sha Li could see that Luo Yuyan was obviously distracted. Wu Daochang also found that everyone was not interested in the story here, so he hurriedly sent Xiao Daotong to serve tea to a few people.

Seven or eight Xiaodao children came in one after another, one holding a tea tray with a teapot and two cups on it, and the fragrance of the freshly brewed tea had overflowed from the spout.

Sha Li lifted the teapot, poured himself a cup first, and gently sniffed the fragrance of tea, which was slightly bitter in the fragrance. Drink it in your mouth, first bitter and then sweet, with a unique aftertaste. Everyone tasted tea and nodded in admiration. Wu Daochang saw that this tea was very popular with all the immortals, so he immediately asked Xiaodao Tong to prepare some, but Luo Yuyan couldn't shirk it, so he had to symbolically accept some. Wu Daochang was relieved to see Luo Yu receiving it.

"Immortal elders don't need to be polite to Poor Dao, if there is anything to directly order Poor Dao or the Dao Tong here, they will definitely try their best to solve the problem for all Immortal Elders." Wu Daochang said flatteringly.

Luo Yuyan was accustomed to this kind of scene, nodded and smiled: "Daoist Wu is also too polite, Daoist Wu doesn't need to bother so much, we just stay for one night temporarily and make trouble for Daoist." ”

"Immortal elders, don't say that, the immortal chief of the mountain gate can choose my small Taoist temple to settle down, that is the blessing of this Taoist temple and the poor Dao, the immortal chief doesn't dislike us here, it's good."

The two of them talked, and they were polite words that were not nutritious. Sha Li saw a little impatience in the expressions of some of the senior brothers, they were not too familiar with the world, they were not very suitable for such a time, and they all relied on their own self-cultivation to support and sit down.

Luo Yuyan was absent-minded, but he was secretly looking at Wu Daochang. Wu Daochang seemed to be talking about these trivial things, but in fact, he didn't pay much attention, and there were obviously some things that had not been said yet. The atmosphere in the small hall was very awkward, except for Wu Daochang's incomprehensible speech, which was Luo Yuyan's symbolic reply, and the other sounds were made by the disciples pouring tea and drinking tea......

Just when everyone was about to stand it anymore, a little Taoist boy knocked on the door and told Wu Daochang that the upper room should be cleaned up, and the immortals could rest.

Everyone forced their laughter and finally went to rest. Daoist Wu got up and said, "Then please come with me." ”

Everyone moved their stiff bodies and followed Daochang Wu and Luo Yuyan again. A row of upper rooms were all connected, and Luo Yuyan asked everyone to find their own rooms to rest, and reminded the disciples to pay attention to safety when going to Shangyong City.

Everything was settled, and Daochang Wu told Luo Yuyan about his residence, and if there was anything needed, he would go back to him. After Luo Yuyan thanked him, Wu Daochang left.

Sha Li leaned over to Luo Yuyan and asked, "What's wrong with this Daoist Wu?" Feeling absent-minded. ”

"I think he has something to say." Lou Qingxiao touched his chin and said.

If he really wanted to say it, he would have said it. Ignore it. Luo Yuyan said.

"Immortal! How about we also go to Shangyong City? Strips of turnips, bring the cloud fairy! Shali suggested.

Lou Qingxiao nodded and agreed: "Since you have only settled down for a day, why do you have to go to Shangyong City, I didn't take a good look at this city when I passed by last time, let's go, let's go, I'll call Senior Sister Yun." ”

Sha Li pulled Luo Yuyan's sleeve, and the little daughter looked at Luo Yuyan coquettishly, Luo Yuyan sighed helplessly, pulled Sha Li's hand away, protected her sleeve and said, "Don't drag it around, I'll promise you." ”

"No problem! Let's go! Shali put his hands behind his back and said with a smile.

Lou Qingxiao also successfully pulled Yun Mu out, and the four of them followed Shangxiang back to the city all the way. It's just that these four people are too conspicuous, in the past, there was a Luo Yuyan who had already made ordinary people unable to take their eyes off, and this time there was a Yun Mu, who attracted everyone to peek at the city gate as soon as he entered the city gate.

Luo Yuyan has long been accustomed to this kind of gaze, and she walks even more calmly, nodding and smiling when she sees a beautiful woman peeking at her. Yun Mu didn't encounter this situation, but she was born to talk about it, and she could completely turn a blind eye, and among the four people, Sha Li and Lou Qingxiao couldn't wait to put their faces in their pockets.

"Listening to Daochang Wu, the most famous thing in this Shangyong City should be Zhuangyuan Road?" Yun Mu suddenly asked.

I really didn't expect Yun Mu to listen carefully to what Wu Daochang said, Sha Li was distracted the whole time, it is estimated that Luo Yuyan and Lou Qingxiao are the same, Sha Li looked at Lou Qingxiao, it is estimated that Lou Qingxiao is the one who can know about this.

Lou Qingxiao thought for a while and said: "Back then, this Shangyong City produced three champions in a row, and everyone also built a champion road to commemorate the place blessed by Wenqu Xing. ”

"Let's go over there." Shali said, "I'm here to hang out anyway." ”

The four of them walked around, the so-called champion road has now become a market with endless sales, and there are small stalls on both sides of the road, which is much more lively than the market in Shanmen. How can the disciples of the mountain gate have such fireworks, they are shouting endlessly here, and there are even two sellers who fight because of price comparison, and it is not uncommon for people from the yamen to come out.

Yun Mu watched it with relish, Lou Qingxiao wanted to buy some favorite small things for Yun Mu several times, but Yun Mu looked left and right and finally felt that the fireworks here were more interesting.

This champion road is chaotic and orderly, that is, there are a lot of officials, and there seem to be twenty or thirty people along the way, and there is a government officer every few steps, and his expression is a little nervous. Shali didn't take it too seriously, and continued to walk along the champion road. There is a Shangyong Lake in Shangyong City, and this big lake is at the end of Zhuangyuan Road.

Just in time for the setting sun, the lake water is glowing with golden ripples, and a water corridor has been built on the shore, which extends to the center of the lake, and in the center stands a water pavilion. The color of the carved beams and paintings of the water pavilion is also bold and gorgeous, and there is a music version of the music dance in the water pavilion, and the sand glass is lively, so I want to go over and see.

As soon as he walked to the water corridor, he was stopped by two officials.

"This girl, do you have an invitation from Chen Zhenren?" A servant asked politely.

Sha Li shook his head: "I just passed by here, and when I saw that the water pavilion was very beautiful, I came to see it, and I didn't know any Chen Zhenren." ”

Luo Yuyan, Yun Mu and Lou Qingxiao gathered over, and heard that this place was taken by a person named Chen Zhenren, and they couldn't enter unless there was an invitation.

Lou Qingxiao crossed his arms and looked at the water pavilion, and said with a smile: "It's really interesting, a real person took the water pavilion to have fun, not to mention, but also asked the officials to watch the door." ”

"I guess where did the scattered immortals come from, let's go." Since someone has chartered the venue, Shali doesn't want to join in the excitement.

Sha Li wanted to leave after speaking, but he didn't expect the official behind him to say: "A few of you have just arrived in this Shangyong City, right?" ”

"It's just after noon today." Lou Qingxiao saw that the little brother was quite good at talking, so he wanted to talk a few words.

The little brother of the servant secretly lowered his voice: "Then I will say one more word, there are monsters outside Shangyong City recently, and a few people should not go out of the city after dark, just rest in this city." ”

"Got a youkai?" Shali smiled, "What kind of youkai? Cannibalism? ”

Seeing that these four people didn't take their words to heart at all, the little brother was also a little anxious: "A few of you, listen to my advice, it is said that there is a wicked person who can manipulate monsters to eat people, this is true." Chen Zhenren in the Water Pavilion was invited by our prefect to kill demons. ”

Yun Mu frowned, and said coldly: "Is that Chen Zhenren here to kill demons, or to drink and have fun?" ”

The little brother hurriedly waved his hand and whispered: "Don't let that real person hear it, that real person is indeed capable, we have all seen it at the beginning, the monster does not appear on weekdays, it only comes out at night, and the real person said to wait for the monster to appear before doing it." ”

Yun Mu looked into the water pavilion and could see a middle-aged man with a drunken face, staring at the dancers drooling. Yun Mu's face was like frost, and he said, "I'll test his ability." ”

Sha Li hurriedly hugged her waist and said, "Sister fairy! Can't ...... like that."

"Senior Sister Yun, if you discuss this matter again, don't be impulsive." Lou Qingxiao also hurriedly said.

Luo Yuyan's expression was as usual, with a smile: "This kind of person is not worth your shot, go back and ask Daoist Wu, and wait and see how it gets better tonight." ”

Yun Mu's body relaxed, and Sha Li also let go of Yun Mu. "Then we'll wait."

The four of them decided to go back to the Taoist temple first, since such a big thing happened outside, it was impossible for Daochang Wu not to know, maybe he wanted to talk about it before, and what he wanted to say was this?

The little brother watched the four of them leave, scratched his head and said to himself, "I met a strange person." (To be continued.) )
