Chapter 127: Little Demon in the Mountain
How is it possible for a child of a few years old, for a few days and nights, just drinking water to make ends meet, but not eating grains? If adults can survive it, children can't survive it at all. Moreover, Mu Ran must have food here, and he has nothing that he can't let go, he can eat a full meal, but he takes the initiative not to eat, only drinking water. If this kid named Shui'er is not stupid, then he must not be human!
Only aliens can not make a living with the essence of grains like humans, is that the child of the water is transformed by demons?
Thinking of this, I opened my mouth slightly, as if I couldn't define it so arbitrarily, maybe he was really the child of a nearby farmer. But Mu Ran just said that the farmers in the mountains also came to make incense, and they didn't recognize this child named Shui'er. Then his home is likely to be a little farther away, if it is such a far mountain road, how can a child of a few years old run so far? And you have to avoid the poisonous insects and beasts in the mountains, which is unreasonable!
Then the only explanation is that this child named Shui'er is extraordinary, plus ...... The series of anomalies I had seen earlier, the inexplicable demonic aura, and Mu Ran's bitten wrist...... As soon as I came, the water disappeared, did he deliberately avoid me? Therefore, before I came, he had already detected that I was coming, and he was able to deal with him, so he fled in advance, well, all the clues and inferences are pointing to the realm of demons.
If this is the case, I hurriedly looked at Mu Ran, if this is the case, then, then the injuries suffered by this Mu Ran are not all caused by that little demon? On the surface, he lives by drinking water, but in fact, his food is human blood, especially Mu Ran's blood! You must know that the blood on Dao Tong's body is already the spiritual blood condensed by the aura, once it is eaten by demons and demons, it must be able to help him cultivate to a great progress, and Mu Ran is too young to understand the chaos of the six realms.
And Mu Ran is honest and honest, there is no sense of self-defense at all, and he easily believes in the child named Shui'er. After thinking about it, I immediately asked Mu Ran cautiously, "Mu Ran, how many days has that water been with you?" ”
"Hmm...... It's five days in total, Senior Brother Li, what's wrong? ”
Mu Ran said to me with a simple face.
"Nothing!"
I responded in a deep voice, and sighed secretly: "If Shui'er ate Mu Ran's spiritual blood, that is, it took five days, fortunately Mu Ran is still alive, it can be seen that the little demon doesn't want to suck Mu Ran's blood all at once...... Maybe the little demon did it deliberately, with a limit of seven days, or a period of six days, in short, when the time comes, Mu Ran's life will be difficult to protect! No, I want to save Mu Ran, he is left alone in this Laojun Temple, if he is gone, then won't this Laojun Temple be abandoned? The Dao veins here are also broken! ”
Originally, I came here to find a cave to cultivate, and with the help of the unique environment of this place, I tried to break through to the fifth layer of the Mixed Yuan Gong Method. Who would have thought that I would come here and encounter such an incident, but saving people is important, I can't just focus on cultivation and let that demon run rampant!
"Senior Brother Li, are you talking to yourself? Why can't I hear you? ”
Mu Ran came to me curiously, but at the moment when he stepped forward, I obviously saw his expression stagnant, and he almost staggered and fell, I hurriedly reached out to support him, Mu Ran immediately shook his head with a smile and said: "Senior Brother Li, I, I'm fine, it seems like I've suffered a little cold, I'll be fine after a rest." I barely squeezed out a smile in response to him, in fact, I know very well what kind of wind and cold he is suffering from, this stupid boy, his life is almost gone, and he doesn't know what is going on!
My mind was in a hurry, and I already had a plan, so I immediately motioned for Ling'er to support Mu Ran, and then asked Mu Ran, "Where is the land god here?" ”
Mu Ran casually pointed in the direction of the front hall, I nodded, turned around and walked out. Immediately, Mu Ran shouted, "Senior Brother Li, what are you going to do?" Obviously Mu Ran was curious, I waved my hand and motioned for him to go out if he wanted to know. Sure enough, with Ling'er's support, Mu Ran followed me to the front hall slowly, through the front hall, in a remote corner, there was a place where the god of the land god was.
I took out three sticks of incense, lit them, and then raised them to the place at the same level as my eyebrows, and then bowed respectfully three times, and then shouted: "Li Xianchu, a disciple of the Maoshan faction, summons the land god to appear!" With that, I lifted my foot and stomped on the ground three times......
"Don't stomp, don't stomp, stomp my little temple again!"
Then, I saw a flash of golden light, from the throne of the land god showed a fat old man with white hair and wearing official uniforms, I saw that it was the god of good fortune, seeing me, the land god stroked his white beard, and said: "Xianchu, you have nothing to do to stop the demon lord of the world, complete your great task, why come here to plague my little temple?" ”
"The god of the land, just because the younger generation came to this Laojun Temple, saw that the little Taoist priest Mu Ran was deeply affected by the evil spirit, but I don't know why, I think of this dwelling place of the gods, how can there be evil evil? The younger generation is very puzzled, don't the gods care about this? ”
I respectfully voiced the doubts in my heart.
"Xianchu, you only know one thing, you don't know the other, the things of the Mu Ran Path, we gods know, it's just ......"
The land god said with a smile, but in the end he hesitated.
"Now that you know, why do you let demons and evil cause trouble in the dojo?"
I was even more puzzled.
"Alas, this is actually the way of the causal cycle of the Mu Ran path, he was a mountain demon in the back mountain in his previous life, in order to prevent the demon in one of the caves from disturbing the nearby people, and finally fought to death, Taishang was merciful, remembering that his contribution was not small, so he directly allowed him to be reincarnated as a human being, and entered the Taoist door to practice. Although he has this opportunity, the cause and effect of the demon in his previous life and the demon in the back mountain are still there, and the little demon devoured his spiritual blood because he killed the little demon's family in his previous life, which is the retribution of the cycle of cause and effect! ”
After the land god finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Mu Ran, who had a blank face, and sighed lightly.
I also glanced at Mu Ran, but saw that Mu Ran didn't seem to see or hear anything, maybe because he didn't open his eyes to heaven, so he couldn't see the land god, let alone hear the words of the land god. I immediately asked the land god again: "Then since it is a cycle of cause and effect, the gods should at least subdue it, can't you watch Mu Ran be killed by that little demon like this, right?" ”
"What's the hurry, hasn't something happened to him yet? Besides, he won't die just like that, but this is his fate, and he has this calamity in his life, and now is not the right time, and the gods can't manipulate his cause and effect. Of course, it's different when you come at the beginning, your duty is to subdue demons and subdue demons, and the task of rescuing Mu Ran Xiaodao will naturally fall on your head, hahaha......"
After the land god finished speaking, he laughed, and just as the land god was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, turned back to me and said: "This is a heavenly opportunity, after you know it, you must not leak it, remember, remember ......"
I only heard the words of the land god still echoing in the air, but the figure of the land god had disappeared. I was stunned, uh...... It seems that Mu Ran and I have a fate, but the land god hasn't told me yet, what are the demons in the back mountain, and how many demons are there? The so-called several holes, holes, just like a nest, a hole is a nest, a nest includes the whole family of demons, if there are a few holes of demons, it means that there are several nests of demons. However, these were not instructed by the land gods.
It seems that I still need to investigate it myself, but now I am sure of at least one thing, and that is that the one named Shui'er is undoubtedly evil. It's just that I didn't expect to have such a debt with this Mu Ran, but I won't tell Mu Ran this, I still know that the heavenly machine cannot be revealed, but when I turned around and looked at Mu Ran again, I saw Mu Ran looking at me even more stunned, and asked: "Senior Brother Li, you, you just talked to the god of the land god for a long time, but I don't know what you said to the land god?" Also, did the land god reply? ”
Looking at Mu Ran's curious expression, I smiled and nodded, and said, "The land god replied, saying that you guard the temple very well, and you have a pure heart, and let you practice well!" Hehe! I told a white lie, and when I heard it, I saw Mu Ran grinning, revealing the two little tiger teeth in his mouth, and then nodded heavily in response.
Ling'er on the side saw everything in his eyes, and asked me cautiously at this moment: "Brother Xianchu, what should we do now?" ”
"Go back to the backyard first, I have my own way!"
I immediately helped Mu Ran back to the backyard with Ling'er, and then said to Ling'er: "Ling'er, you help Mu Ran to the side, I want to summon the five ghosts out now!" After speaking, I casually took out the demon refining pot, opened the stopper, and immediately shouted, "The five ghosts obey the order, and quickly appear out!" With my loud shout, all of a sudden, I only heard a series of strange laughter, rushing out of the demon refining pot like lightning.
Five festive-looking and weird-looking little ghosts immediately appeared in front of me, but at this time, for some reason, Mu Ran actually saw the five ghosts, and shouted in horror: "Ghosts! Ghost! It's really a ghost! It turned out that there are really ghosts in the world, ......" Before the words were finished, Mu Ran was frightened and fainted, and the five ghosts saw Mu Ran, who was too frightened, and immediately stuck out his tongue and made a grimace, but Mu Ran was already unconscious, and he didn't see it, and he estimated that he would faint again when he saw it.
I waved my hand and said, "Don't tease him, he has already fainted, I let you come out, I asked you to do one thing, now you go to the nearby mountains to see, where is the little demon who sucked the blood of Mu Ran, and find out how many caves of demons are haunting, if you encounter difficulties, you can move out of Maoshan to suppress them!" ”
"Yes! Do as your master commands! ”
The blessed ghost respectfully agreed, and then turned around and pulled towards the four ghosts, but saw that the five ghosts instantly grabbed the way in five different directions and disappeared without a trace.
