Chapter 5: Sealing the Elixir
I glanced at the precepts, and Qing Cen said them word for word.
Bai Wushuang listened and nodded in satisfaction, but then asked another question, but it didn't seem to have anything to do with the precepts.
"You're not a human, you're not a demon?" His eyes stared at Qing Cen for a moment.
Qing Cen lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Bai Wushuang's eyes.
"Qingcen, it's the child of the Nightmare Ghost." I can only answer for Qingcen.
"Nightmares?" Bai Wushuang listened, nodded, and muttered to himself: "No wonder, the nightmare ghost controls dreams, and there are thousands of thoughts in your head, these must be very easy for you." ”
After that, Bai Wushuang paused: "You might as well stay in the Discipline Pavilion, how about it?" ”
"Me? And what about my sister? Qingcen immediately looked at me.
Bai Wushuang glanced at me and waved at me to come over, and when I walked up to him, he asked me a few questions.
It's a pity that I only got one right, that is, in the demon capital, ordinary monsters are not allowed to wear purple, red, and yellow robes.
Because, these three colors are only owned by the demon of the Feng clan, and most of the demon slaves can only wear gray clothes.
"You don't seem to be a nightmare?" Bai Wushuang's face sank slightly after I answered two questions incorrectly in succession, and motioned for me to spread out his hand, and after he glanced at it, he asked a little suspiciously: "Why don't you have a demonic qi or a ghostly energy?" ”
"I'm just a normal person." I answered truthfully.
"Impossible!" Bai Wushuang was suddenly stunned and said, "The demon capital can't enter the mortals." ”
"But I'm really just a mortal." I looked at him and replied earnestly.
He got up and walked around me for a long time, the look of suspicion between his eyebrows not diminishing but increasing.
"That's a real anecdote." Bai Wushuang said, and then lowered his eyes and looked at the rest of the demons: "Today, the hour is not early, you can go to the "guest house" with the little boy to rest." ”
As soon as Bai Wushuang's words fell, the boy motioned for us to go with him.
Everyone was already tired, so they immediately followed the little boy out, and I took the scroll on the table and asked Bai Wushuang if he could borrow it.
Bai Wushuang nodded slightly, and I took the scroll and pulled Qing Cen out.
Chitose and the fat monk supported Dye Che and followed us.
The boy took us around two paths and arrived in front of a very quaint wooden building, and the word "guest building" was written on the eaves of the wooden building.
Xiao Tong said that this building is for visitors, and now it is empty, so we can live in whatever way we want.
The demons yawned and were about to walk towards the building, but the little boy stopped them, and took out a box with white pills in it.
"You have just entered the demon capital, the night here is very cold, this is the Hearth's Warming Pill, you can get better if you eat it." After speaking, the child motioned for everyone to take the pill.
When it was my turn, I was about to take it, but the boy closed the box directly.
"Why don't you give it to my sister?" Qingcen had just swallowed the pill, and when he saw that the boy didn't give me the pill, he immediately became anxious.
"She's a mortal and can't eat it." As he spoke, the boy was about to leave with the box in his hand.
I hurriedly stretched out my hand and grabbed the little boy and asked, "Excuse me, where is Lingwu now?" ”
"That crow, after I bandaged it, I will send it to the first room of the guest house, you can see it when you go up the stairs." The boy said, yawning as he walked forward.
I took Qingcen and the others to walk up the stairs quickly, and sure enough, there was a "one" written on the door of the first room facing the staircase.
The rest of the demons are also looking for a room next door to live.
I opened the door and saw a large wooden bed, on which Lingwu was lying.
"Lingwu?" I let out a low cry and walked quickly to Lingwu's side.
Lingwu's eyes were closed, lying on the bed motionless, but his breathing was extremely steady, and there should be no major problems.
Chitose helped Dye Che and asked him to lie down, Dye Che's face was a little pale, and after lying down, he fell asleep not long after, Chitose stayed by his side, but he also fell asleep on the edge of the bed, and the fat monk also yawned, and he simply slept on the floor.
I sat on the edge of the wooden chair, my mind was still a little chaotic, and I even felt like I was in a dream.
"Sister, aren't you sleeping?" Qingcen looked at me with a tired face.
"Sister is not sleepy, you can sleep first, sister will sleep in a while." I whispered.
Qingcen nodded, leaned back in another chair, and fell asleep.
I, on the other hand, looked at the candle and looked at the scroll.
I don't have the memory of a demon, but I'm afraid that I may not be able to memorize the precepts here for more than half a month.
So, all night, I carefully flipped through the contents of the scroll, until finally, my eyelids drooped heavily, and I fell asleep.
"Sister? Sister? ”
Not long after I closed my eyes, Qingcen woke me up again, saying that the child told us to go to the dining hall for breakfast.
I didn't have an appetite, so I waved my hand, wanting Qingcen and them to go.
"Sister, the precepts stipulate that unless it is an illness and the illness is cut off by the "Heavenly Doctor Pavilion", you can be exempted from the fasting hall, otherwise three meals a day are indispensable. Qingcen opened his mouth and recited the precepts.
I thought about it, and it seemed that there was such a precept.
followed Qingcen to the bathroom at the end of the corridor, washed up, and then walked out of the "guest house".
Outside the guest house, the boy was already counting the demons, and when he saw us coming, he motioned for us to leave for the door of the Discipline Pavilion, where two veiled women were waiting for us.
They didn't say a word, they just led us in the direction of the hall.
When we arrived at the dining hall, we had to wait at the door of the dining hall, and we could not go in until a group of "people" dressed in gray clothes had finished their meal from inside, because now we were in the demon capital, even if it was the most inferior.
Therefore, you have to wait until the end before you can enter the dining hall to eat.
However, when it was our turn, the meal was on the table, and there were still more than a dozen green leafy vegetables, and the clear soup and water demons couldn't eat it at all.
I sandwiched a lot of vegetables for Qingcen and asked her to eat more, Qingcen used to live in poverty in the village, and there was no picky eating at all, even if it was all vegetarian dishes, she ate them with relish.
The rest of the demons still don't move their chopsticks, but even if you don't eat, it is also written in the precept that you still have to stay in the dining hall for two teas.
Qingcen has eaten enough, and the time is almost up, and then those masked slaves will send us back to the Precept Pavilion.
On the way back, Leopard Mountain actually thought of escaping again, and it walked to the bend of the long road with a few little demons, intending to show its true body and escape.
But as soon as he was lucky, he vomited a mouthful of blood.
The slave at the front just glanced back, and said coldly, "Have you eaten the Feng Ling Pill?" Sealing the spirit pill will seal your spiritual power, forcibly urge, and you will vomit blood and die. ”
