Chapter 190: A Man Has ...... Under His Knees
There was chaos in front of the Tianping Tower, and a group of people cried and cried, so miserable. If someone happens to pass by and sees this scene, I am afraid that they will think how fierce and domineering those two people standing are, after all, it is really pitiful for a group of big men to cry like this.
But Jingli and Mo Qiu are also very aggrieved, and they clearly haven't had time to do anything yet. Besides, the two of them are smaller in number than them, and their average cultivation is lower than theirs, so before they came, they didn't expect this to be such a scene.
"Why don't we run?" Mo Qiu asked cautiously.
"Run?" Jingli looked at Song Xiao, who was kneeling on the ground and refused to get up, and then looked at the big men who were crying, and felt a little ridiculous, she hadn't been scared away by people's cries, "Didn't their boss just now say that we should save our lives, why don't you listen to it?" ”
"His cultivation is higher than both of us, how can he need us to save his life." Mo Qiu pursed his lips, and had already held the bowl in his hand again, planning to run away as long as Jingli nodded.
"It's because his cultivation is higher than ours that I want to hear about it, aren't you curious?"
Hearing Jingli's question, Mo Qiu knew that she was not going to leave, so he glanced at the crying people again and asked, "You go and help him up?" "If you don't take the initiative to help, it is estimated that it will be impossible to resume normal dialogue for a while.
Jingli coughed softly, seeing that the scene was still chaotic, obviously no one paid attention to herself, so she coughed heavily again, and still no one paid attention to herself. She sighed, took two steps forward, raised her voice and said to Song Xiao, "This fellow Daoist, get up and speak." No matter what you want to say, you can't kneel and say, Daoyou cultivation is higher than both of us, it stands to reason that you should be called seniors, how can you be embarrassed to let your seniors kneel. ”
Song Xiao was overjoyed when he saw the female cultivator reply, and understood that half of the goal had been achieved.
He straightened his back, huh? Can't stand up.
Again...... Still can't stand up.
Jingli saw that Song Xiao had raised his head, his face turned red and white, but he never stood up. It's been a long time. Only then did he hold back a sentence: "Daoyou doesn't agree." I won't get up. ”
Isn't that a scoundrel? Although he had heard that mortals had such scoundrels, claiming that there was something under the knees of men, they liked to kneel down and threaten others, but the monks also thought that kneeling could solve the problem. It's kind of funny.
Jingli's face was a little unsightly. I thought to myself, it is difficult for this person to take them for fools. So I wanted to get out of here quickly.
Only Mo Qiu had been standing on the side, but at this time, he saw some doorways, and he stepped forward. Stretched out his hand to pick up Song Bao and Li Er, who were crying on Song Xiao's back, and threw them aside, and forcefully pulled away Jiang Qi who was lying on Song Xiao's calf.
Song Xiao only felt a lightness on his body, and quickly jumped up. He wanted to get up just now, but these people pressed on him, if he forced it, he would arch several of them to the ground, although he was angry in his heart that these people were dragging his feet, but for the sake of face, he still didn't get up after all.
At this time, Jingli finally knew that the cottage boss had changed and changed his face just now, and he burst out laughing, and this laugh couldn't stop the brake, and he laughed.
Li Er was crying excitedly, but suddenly he was thrown out, and he heard loud laughter again, but he didn't react for a while, and they all stayed in place.
Song Xiao laughed twice, not knowing whether to relieve himself of the embarrassment just now, or to make himself more embarrassed.
Jingli laughed enough and felt a little embarrassed, after all, the cottage boss with so many pig teammates was actually pitiful. She put away her smile and said with a straight face: "Daoyou, what did you mean by 'help' just now?" ”
Song Xiao patted the dust on his clothes, adjusted his facial expression, and explained the ins and outs of the matter.
This matter has to start from five years ago, when Taipinglou was still called Taipingzhai, Song Xiao was not the boss, and the owner of the village had someone else. One day five years ago, a villager found a karst cave near the cottage, because it was near the Taiping Village, the former owner of the village took people to investigate, but he didn't want to, and he couldn't come back.
There was a strange plant in the cavern, shaped like a vine with barbs, and if approached, the vine would wave like a nimble tentacle to attack the approacher. After tying people up, they will begin to slowly absorb their cultivation to provide for their own growth. The former owner of the village was bound by the vines and could not break free, and was trapped in the cave for five years.
"Since Song Daoyou, you have tried all kinds of methods in the past five years, but you have not been able to solve the dilemma, and the two of us are not as knowledgeable as you, I'm afraid we won't be able to help much." Jingli shook her head, thinking it sounded ridiculous. Ever since she had met a monk who was good at using wood-based spells when she was practicing qi, she was most disgusted by what vines and the like, especially when Song Xiao said that the strange plant would continue to absorb people's cultivation, which was even more disgusting.
It's clearly a plant, but it also absorbs people's cultivation......
Wait, Jingli's heartbeat stopped violently, is this plant born to absorb people's cultivation for its own use?
"Please listen to me." Song Xiao shook his head and continued to explain, "That plant will no longer attack others because it has bound the owner of the village, so there is no danger, don't worry, we have tried many times in the past few years, and that plant will not harm others." I heard that there are five elements in human Taoism, and there are two and two mutual restraints in the exercises, so I thought that the plant must have its own nemesis, so I wanted to cast a wide net. The two of them came from the Jade Spiritual Realm, and they may have some understanding of Taoist culture......"
"Song Daoyou is afraid that it is a misunderstanding, we ......"
"You don't have to deny that we have our own methods." Song Xiao interrupted Mo Qiu's words.
"By the method you mean the little finch?" Jingli raised an eyebrow.
"You already knew!" Before Song Xiao could speak, Meng Yingzi had already taken the lead in screaming, he was still tied up and fell to the ground, and he was struggling to raise his head at this time, "No wonder you caught me all of a sudden, it turned out that you already knew!" ”
Jingli rolled her eyes in her heart, this guy is also a strange thing, obviously very good at concealment, but he stupidly took the initiative to scare people, if she can't catch it, it's called strange.
As for the little finch, she only noticed it after she caught Meng Yingzi. Before this, she could vaguely hear the sound of a bird flapping its wings, and at that time she thought it was just an ordinary bird. Later, when she met Meng Yingzi, she took this voice to heart, and then she found that there was a little bird that had been following the two of them near or far, so she had some conjectures.
She had heard that someone was strong in controlling beasts and could borrow spirit beasts to eavesdrop on reconnaissance, and this was the first time she had seen it. (To be continued.) )
