Chapter Twenty-Six: The Protector Beast
After not serving food for a long time, Bai Lotian threw a few copper coins on the table and walked down the restaurant, and he found that he seemed to be able to talk to the monk quite well.
"Kukai, you're right. There are indeed cats in the palace, is His Majesty's illness really related to cats? ”
Bai Lotian is a seven-rank living room, usually responsible for observing the emperor's words and deeds in the palace, of course, just to write poems and collect enough materials.
Kukai glanced around, but found no trace of the black cat, "It's hard to say. There was a murder in Chang'an yesterday, do you know? ”
"Of course I know, there are demon cats who kill people on the street." Bai Lotian thought in his mind, "Could it be that this is the same cat?" ”
"We'll see."
It's been an eventful time lately, two Jin Wuwei who were patrolling at night on Suzaku Street were brutally killed, and the other Jin Wuwei was cut by a demon cat in front of his house.
Most of the people in Chang'an City were silent, and the timid people did not dare to go out, and the door was locked every night, eager to shrink in the bed.
Su Cheng's sense of hearing and smell was very good, and he could hear the conversation between the two from a long distance, and he followed behind him, wanting to see what tricks Kukai and Bai Lotian were going to toss.
Although the official never admitted that Chen Yunqiao was killed by a demon cat, there were too many people watching the excitement at that time, and the news could not be blocked at all!
So in the past two days, the cats in Chang'an City have suffered, and they have been affected by the two big guys, especially the black cats, which have been found out one by one.
There are many people, and Su Cheng has to avoid even if he rushes on the eaves and roof tiles.
The range that the divine sense can reach is only twenty zhang away, but the human eye can see much more than that, so you have to be careful and careful.
Even if he doubled the expansion of the sea of knowledge, it was impossible to cover himself with the illusion all the time, the speed of consumption was too fast!
"Later, we must study and study how to figure out how to get a trick."
Su Cheng's current Ecstasy Dafa has only just been introduced, and the use of some of the small skills in it is not in place, and without the guidance of a master or senior, it is very difficult to slowly explore it by himself.
The demon cat Bailong just taught Su Cheng the fragment of the Ecstasy Dafa, and the rest of the things were secretive, he was simply using him, and he didn't really want to accept an apprentice.
Now that the plot has unfolded, there is no extra time left for Su Cheng to slowly practice and summarize, what he lacks most is time!
Kukai and Bai Lotian walked forward while talking, and there were all kinds of clothing stores, butcher shops, grocery stores, pastry shops, and pharmacies, bookstores, pen shops, donkey rentals, horse-drawn carriages, huqin, pipa and zither makers, and wine shops and restaurants.
The shouting along the street and avenue is continuous, and there is another thing in the small alley.
Hu merchants and local merchants from the Western Regions gather here, and goods can be seen from all over the world, whether it is a dignitary or a common person, they can find their favorite items here.
"Kukai, what's the matter with you? Why are you going back so soon? What are you doing here? ”
Along the way, Bai Lotian was annoyed by the monk's questions, so he turned around and sent out a series of questions.
"I want to be a disciple of Master Huiguo of the Tang Qinglong Temple, but unfortunately I can't even enter the mountain gate."
Su Cheng actually had the same mood after hearing this, he finally met Master Huiguo in disguise, but unfortunately he couldn't grasp the opportunity.
The reason why I gave up my precious cultivation time today is to follow behind these two protagonists and see if I can rely on the protagonist's luck to meet the melon seller again!
He didn't have time to stare at Bai Lotian and Kukai every day, if these two people had been shopping in Chang'an, who knew when they would meet?
Now is the time to eat and drink enough to walk and digest and try your luck.
At least Su Cheng felt that his luck seemed to be quite good, even if he died, he could still live with the cat for another life, and the greatest luck was to have a second life!
After hearing Kuhai's words, Bai Lotian explained with a smile: "It's not strange at all, Qinglong Temple is the ancestral court of the Tang Esoteric Sect. At that time, Master Huiguo retrieved the tantric method from Tianzhu, and there were thousands of monks in the temple, but none of them were worthy of being his disciples. ”
As a foreigner, it is not easy to enter the ancestral court of Esoteric Buddhism.
Just when they came to the downtown area, craftsmen who performed face-changing, spitting fire, and swallowing swords began to appear, and the shouts of "eat melons, eat melons" were particularly clear.
Su Cheng's eyes lit up, and what he was waiting for was this moment!
He didn't care much, and after using his divine sense to cast a layer of illusion on his body, he ran wildly, and came to a corner of the downtown with lightning speed.
At this time, the melon seller used the same trick as the previous post station, which made the surrounding crowd scream again and again.
"One melon can't quench everyone's thirst, so let's have a few more!"
Although Bai Letian is brilliant, he is mortal with the naked eye after all, and he can't see through this trick at all.
However, Kukai broke free after a short blur, and looked at the melon seller with a smile.
Su Cheng had already cultivated the sea of consciousness, and the illusion at this time was nothing to him, and the illusion was cracked as soon as the divine sense was detected, but he found that there was another wave of divine consciousness lurking, and he seemed to have exposed his whereabouts!
"Oops, it's a surprise."
Needless to say, that divine consciousness must be that of Gua Weng, that is, Master Huiguo, and only he can cultivate such a strong and peaceful divine sense.
The melon seller didn't seem to have done anything, just handed over the watermelon in his hand to Kukai.
The two of them probably went to find the demon cat White Dragon, and hurriedly left with watermelons.
And the melon seller put his eyes on Su Cheng in the corner, and said with a smile: "Don't hide, you come out!" ”
Su Cheng not only cast an illusion on himself, but also hid behind a wooden frame, double insurance.
The two of them seemed to be separated from the bustling street, and the people around them turned a blind eye to the appearance of the black cat, as if it did not exist at all.
"I said before that we were destined to see each other again, but I didn't expect that your kitten had a good chance and opened up the sea of knowledge." The face of the melon seller changed, "But you are too bold to dare to kill people at will!" ”
Su Cheng knew that the melon seller had been silently watching everything all along, even if the demon cat Bailong thought that he was acting secretly.
The eldest husband can bend and stretch, not to mention that he is only a cat now.
He came to the melon seller, raised his head and meowed twice, interpreting the image of an ignorant and coaxed by others.
Although the demon cat Bailong did not say that he was his master, but he did not cheat on the matter of passing on the exercises, then selling melons was his own master and uncle, and he forcibly got involved.
In addition, Su Cheng once heard about the tragic situation of the melon farmer in the prison of Dali Temple, and knew in his heart that the melon seller was actually not the kind of compassionate holy monk, but an ordinary person with his own emotions and preferences!
The reason why I don't use the image of Master Huiguo to see people is probably because I want to follow my heart, after all, tantric practice is to see myself as a Buddha, and only when my own thoughts are well understood can I go further in my practice.
After analyzing the character of the traitor, Su Cheng dared to follow Bai Lotian and the two over, otherwise he would definitely hide far away.
Since the revenge of the demon cat and the white dragon, it has harmed many people, from the emperor and the crown prince to the servants of the Liu Mansion. But the melon seller is cold-eyed and does not come to the rescue, proving that he is an extremely protective person!
Even if the white dragon has become a heinous demon cat, he is still his junior brother in the heart of the melon seller.
"That's it, since I have a fate with you, this trick will be taught to you, but remember not to do evil, otherwise you will never be spared!"
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and touched Su Cheng's forehead on the ground, and transmitted a divine sense into Su Cheng's sea of consciousness, which was the cultivation method of the Blind Eye Method.
Su Cheng originally wanted to climb the relationship again, but suddenly realized that he shouldn't have known the relationship between the melon seller and the demon cat Bailong, so he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
"Let's go, let's go, if you don't leave, I'll take you back to be a Dharma Protector Divine Beast!"
was about to sell a cute, Su Cheng didn't know whether the words of selling melon Weng were intentional or unintentional to reveal his identity, he quickly turned around and drilled into the alley, never wanting to go to Qinglong Temple as a mount or a protector beast!
