Chapter 139: Monsters

Abbot Huiyuan couldn't help but wipe his cold sweat, "The affairs in the temple, the old man is enough to deal with them, so I don't bother Your Majesty and Niangniang." ”

Feng Li nodded: "Okay, then we won't interfere in this matter." ”

Huiyuan nodded, turned around and asked a panicked little monk with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, who was not very old: "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Abbot, the little monk doesn't know, he was walking well, but these two people suddenly foamed at the mouth and died!"

"Is it you?" Huiyuan's eyes widened.

"Abbot, the little monk didn't do anything, the little monk was wronged!" The monk suddenly panicked, "Aren't they also bitten?" Isn't it my turn next? ”

He crawled to Huiyuan's feet and grabbed the corner of his clothes: "The abbot save me, the abbot save me!" ”

Feng Li and Long Jue glanced at each other, and they both saw the same doubts in each other's eyes as themselves.

What was it that scared this monk so much?

"What are you talking nonsense?" Hui Yuan flicked his sleeves and threw him to the ground, "Someone, this person is talking nonsense, take him down for interrogation." ”

Several young and strong monks stepped forward and took the monk down, Huiyuan smiled flatteringly: "These ugly things make Your Majesty and Niangniang laugh. ”

"Dare to ask the abbot, why was the monk afraid just now? Is it because of what's going on in the temple these days? ”

Huiyuan lowered his eyes, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he quickly covered it up: "Niangniang doesn't have to listen to this little monk's nonsense, he may witness the violent death of his fellow disciple, and he is also panicked in his heart." ”

"I see." Feng Li suddenly realized.

Huiyuan cautiously raised his eyes, and saw that there was nothing abnormal on Long Jue's face, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then the old man will not bother His Majesty and the mother, and the old man will take his leave." Hui Yuan saluted, turned around and slowly left.

"Your Majesty?" Long Jue didn't speak for a long time, Feng Li raised his head and shouted suspiciously.

"Go and ask the monk just now." He walked to the house, and Feng Li followed.

When they came out again, the two of them wore night clothes and quickly walked into the backyard of the temple.

The two waited for a long time behind the rockery before the little monk was dragged into a dilapidated cabin.

After the other monks left, Feng Li and Long Jue quietly entered through the window.

I saw that the little monk's back was beaten to the flesh, because it was cold at night, he could only shrink into a lump in the corner of the wall.

Noticing Feng Li and Long Jue, he propped up his body in fear and shouted with difficulty: "Little monk see ......"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Li held him down: "No need to be polite, we came to you just to ask you something." ”

The little monk shrank back, but still said timidly: "Niangniang, please ask, the little monk will answer truthfully." ”

"What's your name?"

"The little monk is a Qingzi generation, named Qingzhu."

"Qingzhu, you said you were afraid of something that would bite you, what was it that made you so afraid? The abbot didn't want to say more. Feng Li asked.

Qingzhu's white face showed a little embarrassment.

"Don't be afraid, we'll help you if you say it."

Qingzhu looked up at Long Jue's face, and hesitated: "That thing has appeared on the mountain for a long time, and many of the senior brothers who came down the mountain have encountered it, and many of them have died." ”

"I heard that monster has fangs, claws, and a foul smell, it's scary, and, most importantly, it eats people!" The little monk's eyes widened, and he inexplicably felt a sense of joy.

"Can eat people?" Feng Li frowned.

"That's right, and that monster will go into the temple to eat monks, those two people, I think they were sucked by the monster!" The little monk said fearfully.

Feng Li was very puzzled: "But why didn't the abbot let you say more, and even decided that you were talking nonsense?" ”

"Over the years, all the monks who can walk have left, and they have all gone down the mountain to other temples, leaving us people who want to go but don't want to go. The abbot said that he would not let us say more, for fear that His Majesty would know about it and affect your ancestors. ”

"I see, do you know where the monster is?" Feng Li asked again.

"I heard that the monster lived in the mountains, and some people said that they often saw the monster drinking water in the middle of the river!" The little monk's face turned pale, "Your Majesty, Niangniang, you better leave early, otherwise, you will be eaten by monsters!" ”

"Okay, thank you." Feng Li took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and stuffed it into his hand, "This is the best medicine, you wipe it yourself, and the wound won't hurt." ”

"Thank you, Niang!" Qingzhu said gratefully.

Feng Li and Long Jue walked out of the house, and Feng Li wondered: "In the middle of the river, could it be that the monster that Qingzhu said lives there?" ”

"Call the national teacher and go and see." Long Jue said lightly, with his big hands behind his back, and Feng Li walked towards Lu Tianyan's house.

The night was quiet, only the constant chirping of unknown insects, one after another, but it looked strange in the mountains.

There is only one river on the mountain, and this river flows down from the mountain, where the monks fetch water, bathe, and wash water.

The three of them, dressed in night clothes, walked slowly down the river.

Finally arrived near the middle reaches of the river, the three of them looked around, and Lu Tianyan said, "There is no abnormality." ”

"This monster must be nearby, let's split up and look for it." Feng Li proposed.

Long Jue and Lu Tianyan nodded in unison.

After Lu Tianyan looked for a direction and left, Long Jue lowered his eyes and looked at her: "Be careful." ”

Feng Li smiled and punched him in the chest: "Your Majesty, rest assured." ”

She also picked a direction to look for, Long Jue looked around for a while, and flew to the other side of the river.

The night is very quiet, the more I walk, the more Feng Li feels that her scalp is numb, this mountain forest is really weird!

In this space, there was only the sound of Feng Li's footsteps, as if something was about to come out of the darkness.

Feng Li suddenly stopped.

There's movement!

The leaves and bushes around him were rustling in the wind, but Feng Li still felt a little unusual.

She slowly touched her waist, holding a hidden weapon as thin as a willow leaf in her hand, and suddenly, her apricot eyes were slightly cold, and the hidden weapon in her hand flew out in an instant.

In the distance, Long Jue and Lu Tianyan heard the movement here, and they all followed the movement.

Before they could see Feng Li, they saw several monsters covered in foul smell and covered with dirt and leaves.

No, they can't be called monsters, although there are a lot of embarrassment, but it is obvious that these so-called "monsters" are all people!

These people seemed to be not afraid of pain, and they came straight to them, no matter how injured they were, they had to fight them to the end.

I don't know how long it took, a crisp and long sound reached everyone's ears, and these strange people paused for a moment, and soon quickly disappeared into the shadows, and they could no longer feel their breath.
