Chapter 49: The Old Liar

"So you not only stole wine and stole Buddha statues, but also stole the guy who eats by yourself?" Cinnabar seemed to grab Lin Chuan's pigtails and sneered.

"What nonsense? These things were passed down to me by my master! These things are all magical and spiritual, and you think you can steal them casually? These are treasures! Lin Chuan said a little unhappily.

"That must have been stolen by your master! Hahahaha! Cinnabar said unrelentingly.

"You! Don't be nonsense...! Huh? I think you have a point. Lin Chuan wanted to refute at first, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly felt that what Cinnabar said was not unreasonable, so he nodded and agreed.

Cinnabar really had nothing to do with Lin Chuan, rolled his eyes and sighed: "You master and apprentice are really a pair of scourges. ”

"Scourge? It seems that many people have said this about us in the past. Lin Chuan tilted his head and thought about it and said.

"Who said that? It seems that not everyone will be deceived by Taoist priests like you who deceive gods and ghosts! Cinnabar shook her head and said with some sighs.

The villagers said. It's a long story, Master and I have been living on the mountain, but we stay on a mountain for at most half a year, at first, the villagers liked us, and Master looked like a fairy, and he didn't charge the villagers for incense, so the villagers respected us for the first two months, and then they didn't pay much attention to us, anyway, we don't usually go out......" Lin Chuan felt a little like telling a story at the beginning, but after talking for a long time, Cinnabar didn't hear why the villagers said that they were a scourge.

"Okay, okay, get to the point! After talking about it for a long time, I don't understand where you are causing trouble. ”

"It's coming soon, don't worry! That's it, we didn't have any money, and we didn't have anything to eat, so my master took me to hunt in the mountains, and at first there were some pheasants and hares, and then the pheasants and hares ran out of food, so we caught wild boars and wolves, and then the prey on the mountains was eaten..."

"I'm gone... You've eaten up all the animals in the mountain??? Cinnabar asked in disbelief with her mouth wide open.

"I didn't eat them all, Master said that you can't dry up and fish, and those prey are getting harder and harder to catch, at first it was digging a pit, and then Master asked me to learn the sounds of those small animals to lure out other wolves and wild dogs, and then later..."

"Later?"

"Then we stole the chickens raised by the villagers," Lin Chuan whispered.

"You guys!" Cinnabar's eyes widened and she took two steps back.

"At first, the villagers thought it was a weasel or a wolf on the mountain, but later they found that there was no trace of these wild things on the mountain, so they thought there were monsters in the mountain, but after a long time, the villagers knew that it was us, and we became monsters on the mountain..."

"......" Cinnabar frowned tightly, not knowing what to say.

"Then why did you go down the mountain?" Cinnabar calmed down for a moment before continuing.

"Because Master said he had nothing left to teach me... But I always thought it was because that old bastard thought I wasn't of much use. He never taught me anything, he just threw me a book and let me learn it by myself, and then I didn't care if I learned it or not, he just let me do it for others... So for a while I suspected that he was an old liar who didn't know anything at all! ”
