Chapter 107: Man-eating Monster

The more Lai Xing'er listened, the more he felt wrong, if this small stone was really like what he had just suspected, he deliberately came to Songtai Village in advance to ambush and stand for King Ying's Li Shu, then the so-called immortal must be a person who knew this secret, and most of them were King Ying's opponents, and he wanted to use the hands of the villagers to expel the small stone from the village, and then block King Ying's escape and retreat.

According to the white-bearded villager in front of him, this person was wearing a Taoist robe, and he should be a monk. monk, and has an enmity with King Ying. Although Lai Xing'er had sketched the general outline of this person in his mind, it was difficult for him to take a step forward and guess who this person really was.

"Ah Gong, General, the mourning shed has been set up. Would you like to go over and have a look? ”

There was a small stone urn in my ears, and the sound of an urn was inquiring.

"What's your big name?"

After listening to the old man's description, Lai Xing'er was very interested in this small stone of his own age.

"Enokashi. If you didn't ask the general, even I almost forgot the name. Xiao Shi's answer was still full of naΓ―ve energy.

Such a person should not be Li Shu's intention to come to Songtai Village in advance. Lai Xing'er intuitively denied his suspicions just now. If he really escaped privately because he was unwilling to rebel against the court with Li Shu, he could consider taking him under his command.

Lai Xing'er and the old man followed Jiang Zhongshi to the temporary spiritual shed, and saw that there were one or twenty people in the spiritual shed wearing linen filial piety clothes, acting as relatives and juniors of Ding Laoshi's family. Lai Xing'er had heard that Ding Laoshi's family had no relatives in the village, and now there are so many people who are willing to wear linen and filial piety for them.

When Lai Xing'er saw Ding Laoshi's spiritual position, he couldn't help but feel a burst of self-blame and remorse in his heart again, so he begged for a pillar of incense from someone, lit it on the brazier, and bowed three times to Ding Laoshi's spiritual position with a solemn expression, and then inserted the incense in his hand straight into the incense burner in front of the spiritual seat, and muttered in his mouth: "Uncle Ding, after the first seven days, I will definitely come to Songtai Village to carry the coffin for your family."

A breeze blew, and the incense in the incense burner flashed suddenly, and a puff of white smoke rose and dispersed straight upwards.

"General, you are honest. He must have heard what you said. Seeing this, the white-bearded villagers rushed to Xing'er excitedly and shouted.

Lai Xing'er was still young, and he didn't believe in these ghosts and gods, but at this time, he would rather believe that what he said was true, so he said to Ding Laoshi's spiritual position: "Uncle Ding, you can go with peace of mind." If there is still something unfinished in your heart, no matter whether it is a dream or something, you can come and tell me, and I will not disappoint my uncle in the future. ”

After saying these few words, he couldn't bear to face Ding Laoshi's family anymore, turned around, and walked out of the spiritual shed. Behind him was already crying.

Lai Xing'er said goodbye to the white-bearded old man with a fist, holding the little white dragon in his hand, thinking that after meeting with the dozen or so unscrupulous sergeants outside the village, he returned to the Lingdu Temple to see if Li Shu was out of danger. Unexpectedly, after only a few steps, Jiang Zhongshi chased after him from behind, and rushed to Xing'er with a roar: "If the general wants to go up the mountain, take me with him." ”

Thinking that he had been Li Shu's personal guard, Lai Xing'er suddenly became vigilant in his heart: Could it be that he knew that Li Shu himself was now in the Lingdu Temple on the mountain, and he was anxious to see him?

"I heard that a month ago, Uncle Ding first promised to take you in Songtai Village, tonight you don't do your filial piety for your father-in-law, what are you doing with me on the mountain?"

As soon as Jiang Zhongshi approached, the little white dragon beside Lai Xing'er trembled. Seeing this, Jiang Zhongshi stretched out a hand and gently patted the little white dragon's head twice, saying that it was also strange that the little white dragon who was as extraordinary as a dragon in the past slapped him twice, as if he had received a great reward from his master, not only was he no longer afraid of trembling, but he also behaved extremely docile, and kept snorting at Jiang Zhongshi to show goodwill.

"General, you don't know, a few days ago, I stayed on this mountain for two nights, and it was easy to wait for the man-eating monster to appear, but unexpectedly, the monster was really good, and I couldn't control it alone, but it almost hurt my life several times. This monster usually haunts the night, and it is frightened, I think, the general went up the mountain overnight, but don't touch it, therefore, I wish to protect the general with him. ”

Lai Xing'er heard from the white-bearded villagers that Jiang Zhongshi had killed a leopard by himself. It can be inferred from this that he must have made a living by hunting on weekdays, dealing with jackals, tigers and leopards, and his body was inevitably contaminated with the smell of some fierce beasts. At this moment, when he mentioned that there were man-eating monsters in the mountains that were more ferocious than tigers and leopards, he couldn't help but ask, "Monsters? I heard that you have always hunted for a living, and there are monsters on this mountain that you don't know? Tell me, what does it look like? ”

Although he asked questions, Lai Xing'er's footsteps did not stop, and he walked towards the outside of the village with Jiang Zhongshi.

"Anyway." Jiang Zhongshi was obviously not good at words, and replied with a frown, "There are seven points like a buffalo, and there is an extremely sharp single horn on its head, if it hits it head-on, even a big black bear is afraid that it will also be disemboweled, and it will be difficult to live." "There are many black bears in the mountains near his hometown, robbing poultry and livestock, destroying fields and crops, and causing the most harm, therefore, in his eyes, the black bear is far from being comparable to the tiger and leopard, and is the king of the most difficult beasts in the mountains and forests, and according to him, there is now a monster that looks like a cow on the mountain of Wangwu, and it is not comparable to the black bear.

Lai Xing'er walked side by side towards the village while holding the little white dragon and Jiang Zhongshi, while listening carefully to his description of the appearance of the man-eating monster, when he heard Jiang Zhongshi say that the monster looked similar to a cow and had a single horn on its head, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but recall the situation in Luoqi City.

When that day Lai Xing'er pretended to be Li Qi, the king of Mu, and entered the Great Fu Lu Jin to see Tubo Chide Zampu, and completed the mission without danger, the princes and nobles of Tubo heard that the eldest princess of the Middle Earth court was about to marry to Luo and become their new Mengmo, so they rushed to the pavilion where the mission stayed, and rushed to come to Lai Xing'er and others to offer great courtesy, among which they brought Lai Xing'er back to Chang'an to present the treasures to the eldest princess of Changning are full of tricks, even if they have been in charge of the East Palace for a long time, it can be described as a well-informed Shang Jing, and they are also dizzying. I was amazed again and again.

At that time, Lai Xing'er was worried that he could not find his mother's whereabouts, and he had no intention of viewing the various treasures piled up in the pavilion, but he loved the pair of horn scimitars that Xiao Tan Duo gave him as a meeting gift. At that time, Duocuo personally came to visit, his status was valuable, and it was difficult for Lai Xing'er to shirk, so he had to reluctantly come forward to meet him, but when Duocuo ordered someone to present this pair of scimitars that looked like horns, Lai Xing'er still couldn't help but light up, and took this pair of scimitars in his hand, and he refused to let go easily.
