Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Quiet Night

"Uh... What's that... Can you Taoist priests eat meat? ”

Mo Yuan felt that the atmosphere was a little quiet and weird, and since he had thought about this question in his heart, he brought it up casually.

"Generally speaking, except for a few specific animal meats, which are somewhat taboo, everything else is fine."

Mu Tian silently ate the barbecue in his hand, and indifferently answered the inquiry of Mo Yuan, who was not even honest about eating.

"In general? Hmm... What do you mean by squeezing swelling? ”

Mo Yuan's mouth was filled with roast meat, and his voice was a little indistinct.

Mu Tian frowned slightly when he heard this, put down the barbecue in his hand and glanced in the direction of Mo Yuan, and when he saw that Mo Yuan's two cheeks were bulging and eating the food in his hands, he didn't notice his general eating appearance at all, and his brows relaxed slightly.

"Why do you ask this?"

Picking up the barbecue meat he had just put down again, Mu Tian asked lightly.

"Why do you ask this?"

Mo Yuan temporarily stopped eating frantically, tilted his head and thought about it slightly, just as Mu Tian's eyes flashed slightly, Mo Yuan buried his head again in Mu Tian's sight.

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of chatting and talking about it by the way, if it's inconvenient to say it, forget it."

Swallowing a large piece of meat in his hand in one bite, looking at the bare branches in front of him, Mo Yuan touched his head embarrassedly.

"What... Is there any other barbecue in this barbecue? ”

The corners of Mu Tian's mouth twitched slightly, it wasn't that there was no barbecue, there were still two pheasant-like barbecues dripping with golden butter juice on the fire on the side, but this was what Mu Tian planned to keep for tomorrow's rations.

He also expected that Mo Yuan must be hungry after not eating for so long, so he handed over two roasted ones at once.

It's just that I didn't expect that according to my own appetite, it would be very good to be able to eat a whole one, Mo Yuan actually ate two of them in such a short period of time, and only the bones were left, and he asked if he still had them.

"Take it."

A handful of the golden pheasant-like roast meat roasted on the fire was thrown towards Mo Yuan.

"Hey, don't throw it."

Mo Yuan hurriedly received the barbecue thrown by Mu Tian, so that he avoided the fate of the last intimate contact with the earth, but in the next second, Mo Yuan couldn't stop howling.

"Hot, hot! Ay! Hot..."

The golden grease had just come out of the flames, and with the hot temperature, there was a zero-distance contact with Mo Yuan's palm, and suddenly the hot Mo Yuan let out a miserable howl like killing a pig.

Looking at Mo Yuan's performance, Mu Tian smiled and shook his head, it seems that he really thinks too much, no matter what, Mo Yuan is just a newcomer and cannot be eroded so quickly, unless...

"Huh? What about people? ”

Mo Yuan, who had finally stabilized the barbecue in his hand, raised his head and glanced at Mu Tian's original location, only to find that there was no one there except for the rune paper that was falling all over the sky.

Feeling that there seemed to be a gust of wind blowing on his cheeks, bringing up a few hairs, Mo Yuan subconsciously wanted to look back, but found that his body couldn't move at all as if it didn't belong to him.

"There's something I want to confirm."

A cold tone came from behind Mo Yuan, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that a few runes seemed to be floating around him.

"Hmm..."

He wanted to speak, but Mo Yuan found that he couldn't even do the simple thing of opening his lips, and could only emit some muffled syllables from his throat.

"Goo, goo..."

The rabbit chewing tender grass in his mouth on the side couldn't stop making a cooing sound towards Mu Tian behind Mo Yuan, but his footsteps were just wandering in place, looking like he didn't dare to step forward.

Mo Yuan felt that the wind around him seemed to gradually become stronger, and the rune paper that could only be seen from the corner of his vision also began to rotate with the wind.

Different from the burning rune paper when dealing with the powerful ghosts or when Mu Tian took the attack method, these rune papers showed no signs of being ignited, but the words outlined with cinnabar on them began to glow with a gradually stronger golden light...

Mo Yuan slowly opened his closed eyes that were stimulated by the strong golden light before, and the surroundings were calm, the blue-haired rabbit at his feet was still leisurely gnawing on the tender fresh grass on the grass, and Mu Tian was casually leaning on the barbecue in his hand by the campfire not far away.

Mo Yuan looked at the barbecue meat he was holding in his hand, which had become a little cold, and his expression was a little dazed.

Hallucination? No, no, that guy was clearly behind me just now, and that feeling of not being able to move or even speak...

"You... Just now... What was done? ”

Mo Yuan stared at the seemingly defenseless figure sitting by the campfire.

"It's nothing, you should remember what happened when you were pulled into the dream of a terrible ghost."

Mu Tian casually removed a piece of roasted golden skin, and was not afraid of being hot and stuffed it directly into his mouth, chewed a few times and seemed to feel that the taste was too light, took out a cloth bag from his clothes and put it on the palm of his hand and opened it carefully, plucked some powder from it and sprinkled it on the barbecue.

"Of course, this itself has nothing to do with it, but after you came out, you directly asked me about the taboos of the Taoist priest or something, although this is not something worth keeping secret, but just in case, it is better to confirm Fang Xin."

After sprinkling the powder, Mu Tian carefully rewrapped the cloth bag in his hand again and put it back into his clothes, and casually took some dry branches that had been piled up there early in the morning from the side and threw them into the bonfire.

"Just in case? Just in case? ”

Mo Yuan had some guesses in his heart at this moment, and his gaze at Mu Tian was no longer hostile and cautious, but he still asked, after all, it is one thing to have a guess about some things, and it is another thing to get a clear answer.

Mu Tian stopped adding firewood to the bonfire, slowly looked back into Mo Yuan's eyes, and spat out a few words in an unusually heavy tone.

"You may be robbed of the devil."

It was just a few words, but Mo Yuan felt a chill down his spine, and from Mu Tian's heavy tone and slightly sad eyes, Mo Yuan could clearly tell that this was not joking with him, and even the other party might have experienced some sad past.

If there is indeed such a possibility, then if your previous choice is a little wrong, what awaits you is a reality that is crueler than death.

"Ye Qing..."

Muttering these two words in his mouth, Mo Yuan fell into thought.

Although he was forcibly pulled into Ye Qing's dream, and he didn't know anything about this powerful ghost when he was in his body before, even if he did it all over again and told himself about it in advance, would he make other choices?

No, if he is to find his separated relatives in this dangerous world, he must gain enough strength.

Besides, didn't he think it would be dangerous when he stretched out his hand to the dying ghost before?

Along the way, watching the living people die in front of him, he knows better than anyone about the terrible Mo Yuan of the ghosts.

But he understands that the ghosts also have their own obsessions and consciousness, and the ghosts are also different from each other, just like Linlin, who helped him all the way, and the power of the ghosts may not be able to be borrowed for his own use.

And at that time, Lin Lin had already fallen into a deep sleep, looking at the seriously injured Fa Ming and the enemy who had forced the powerful ghost blocking his way to a dead end while talking and laughing, Mo Yuan deeply felt his own powerlessness.

So when he saw the unwillingness and anger in Ye Qing's eyes, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand, he needed strength that could allow him to find his sister's strength.

Mo Yuan, who figured it out, although the clothes on his back that were wet with cold sweat were still wet, his hand brought the barbecue he was holding to his mouth and bit it hard.

yes, it looks like he's already made his own decision, and it's really unexpected.

Mu Tian looked at Mo Yuan's expression throughout the whole process, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

The two people present were each worried, no one was in the mood or interest to chat anymore, only the rabbit on the side had no sign of worrying and was eating the tender grass.

Dinner ended in a silent atmosphere, without saying anything, Mu Tian motioned to Mo Yuan to sleep peacefully, this area has been set up in a formation around him, if there is any danger, it can not only resist for a while, but also serve as a warning.

Although Mo Yuan only felt that he had only been in that space for one day, the exhaustion that surged from his mental and physical frenzy clearly told him that he needed to take a good rest.

There was no word all night, the dawn of the morning pierced the silence of the forest, and the crisp sound of birdsong came from all around.

"Hmmm..."

Mo Yuan's eyelids moved a few times, and he subconsciously turned over and wanted to sleep for a while with his back to the direction where the light came from, but he felt that his body seemed to be pressed against a soft mass.

"Goo!"

The rabbit's scream resounded over the forest, and Mo Yuan depressedly held his arm that had been caught with blood, yawning and following his memory to the river not far away.

After briefly washing himself while vigilantly surrounding, Mo Yuan stood silently in front of Fa Ming's grave for a long time.

"Have you figured out what you're going to study?"

An inopportune voice sounded from behind, and Mo Yuan turned his head to look at the white figure who was leaning against the tree, holding a piece of grass in his mouth with his hands on his chest.

"When did you start here?"

"I think it should have started when you came back from the river, I wanted to hear what you had to say, but I didn't expect it to be a stuffy gourd."

"Eavesdropping is not what a Taoist priest should do."

"Then what should a Taoist priest do? Ghost hunting? Demon slayer? Besides, I've already said I'm not a Taoist. ”

The corners of Mu Tian's mouth hooked up a mocking smile.

"Okay, let's stop talking, I said before that I want to teach you an ability, hurry up and choose, I don't have much time to stay here."
