There are bricks and tiles on his head to protect him from the wind and rain, a soft and comfortable quilt underneath him, and a candle on the table that flickers slightly. The hanging heart was relaxed, but the nerves were still highly tense, and some couldn't sleep.

Leaning against the wall, he muttered that if only there was a cigarette.

In fact, since I practiced the exercises of Yu Laochuan, I don't smoke much, smoking is poison, not only destroying the body, but also confusing the qi in the human body, which is a big taboo when practicing, but when people are annoyed, they always want to smoke one to relieve the depression in their hearts.

Since I couldn't sleep, I simply walked to the door and looked out. A bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the night is dotted with stars. sighed, if you can find the fat man tomorrow morning, you will hide for a while. Lingqian probably won't give up, and it shouldn't be useless to reason with this girl.

In fact, I was still impulsive at the time, Qin Qianqiu's life and death had nothing to do with me, I just let him die, the fat man and I were neither accomplices nor heroes, and in the end we could get out of the way.

It's good now, I'm not too worried about getting into trouble with Lingqian, it's her brother who is scared, and it sounds like a ruthless character.

I have a lot of thoughts in my head, and the more I think about it, the more chaotic I become, the more I can't sleep. Suddenly, he heard a noise outside, and looked out of the door, and saw that the little novice in the temple was holding a wooden fish in his hand, knocking and walking around the courtyard.

"Hey, little master, what are you doing?"

I asked curiously.

When he heard the voice, he hurriedly made a silent gesture to me, then walked over quickly and said, "Donor, why haven't you slept yet?" ”

This little face was still a little flustered, and I was even more curious and said, "I can't sleep, why are you knocking on wooden fish in the middle of the night?" Did you make a mistake and be punished by the master? ”

I just said it casually, but I didn't expect Xiao Shami to hurriedly frown and shout: "No, I've always been very well-behaved." This is the homework assigned by the master, and it must be done every day. ”

"Homework?"

As I was asking, my eyes fell on the courtyard, and I saw a small wooden basin in the middle of the courtyard, which seemed to contain something black and round.

"What's in that tub? Did you let it go? ”

I asked, pointing to the tub.

"Yes, this is a steamed bun for the ghosts and wild monsters of the Sifang Mountain, covered with a layer of black Chinese medicine, which used to be fed by a few senior brothers, and they became me after they came down the mountain to return to the vulgar. Donor, rest quickly, I still have to do my homework. ”

He pushed me, I took a few steps back, and the little novice closed the door of my room, and continued to beat the wooden fish, making a "knock knock ......" sound, while circling the yard.

Steamed buns fed to mountain ghosts and wild monsters? This is the first time I've heard of such a miracle in the world, isn't he raising these earth beasts by doing so? What's more, this place is a temple, a place blessed by Bodhisattvas, can mountain ghosts and wild monsters enter?

The more I thought about it, the more incredible I felt, so I quietly opened the wooden door a crack, and after turning around in the courtyard outside, the little novice stepped aside, reached out and took out some red beans from his pocket and sprinkled them at his feet, and then quietly looked in the direction of the wooden basin.

Will there really be mountain ghosts and wild monsters to eat these steamed buns? Besides, aren't steamed buns white? Why do you have to wrap a layer of Chinese medicine when you feed wild monsters?

I was full of doubts when there was a sudden noise outside the wall, first a few chirping, then more and more, and the atmosphere around me seemed to be a little chaotic. It seems that there are a lot of earth beast spirits that are about to appear.

I slowly crouched down, and after a few minutes, a head suddenly emerged from a hole in the wall, which at first glance looked a little like a sparrow, with brown feathers, a sharp beak and wary eyes, and it cautiously came in through the hole, and it looked like a bird, but it was larger than a sparrow, and its eyes soon saw the wooden basin and the black steamed buns in the wooden basin. Immediately jumped towards the black wooden basin.

It was a kind of earth beast that I had never seen before, and it didn't seem to be vicious, and when it landed next to the tub, I immediately saw the little novice, but instead of looking nervous, I kept bowing my head, and it even looked a little like a bow to me!

It is said that the earth beast is smart, and the earth beast in front of him may really be expressing his gratitude to the little monk.

Then he began to peck at the black steamed buns, and at the same time his mouth let out a sharp chirp, and after a while, various earth beasts continued to appear from outside the small hole in the wall. They weren't big, and they didn't look fierce, but of course, if I didn't look up "Mountain Monsters", I wouldn't be able to name many of them.

The otherwise peaceful courtyard suddenly became lively, and I stood up and hid behind the hidden door, and the strange feeling of the past came back to me. In fact, I still have similar thoughts to this day.

The world will always inadvertently show us its mysteries, and there are too many secrets hidden in places that we can't see or even imagine. I walked into the forest from the city, and after seeing so many strange monsters, I thought that monsters and earth beasts were all hideous and vicious.

But this scene in front of me seems to tell me that there are always two sides to things.

The black steamed buns in the wooden basin were quickly eaten by a spirit, and the earth beasts of different shapes suddenly lined up in a row, bowing to the little novice standing surrounded by red beans, and the cute appearance was even quite likable.

I couldn't help but be curious, and reached out to open the wooden door, but unfortunately my sudden appearance disturbed the peace and tranquility in front of me, and the frightened earth beasts began to flee quickly, and after a few minutes of panic, I was left with a stunned face.

"Donor, why haven't you slept yet? They all scared them away! ”

Xiao Shami picked up the red beans on the ground, and then said with some reproach.

I smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry. ”

"Hmph, they are too timid, I used to feed them secretly at that time, and finally they saw that I was not afraid, and you suddenly ran out and frightened them."

The little novice pouted, still not very happy, and I smirked awkwardly.

"Don't talk too much."

Suddenly an old voice came from behind me, and when I turned around, I saw the old monk in the temple standing at the entrance of the courtyard. Hurriedly bowing, the little novice ran to the old monk, who touched his head affectionately, and then said, "Go back to your room and rest." ”

After the novice was gone, the old monk walked slowly into the courtyard, his light blue robes swaying gently in the breeze. Standing next to me, he whispered, "The donor had a little anger on his face when he first came in, and I think I have experienced a lot of things during the day. ”

I paused slightly, feeling like I was being told about it, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, I almost didn't die during the day." Master, did you raise those earth beasts just now? ”

"It can't be regarded as raising, just like wild cats and wild dogs in big cities, there are always well-wishers to feed them. They are born weak, and my temple can provide them with some food, which is also a blessing. ”

I nodded knowingly, and was about to speak, when suddenly the night sky became dark and deep, and the night wind became cold. The abnormal situation seems to be already hinting at me, as if something ominous is about to happen!

"Master, go back to your room quickly, it seems like ......"

Before I could finish my sentence, a figure suddenly came out of the small hole by the wall, it was the sparrow-like earth beast I had seen before, and it had been barking at us since it came in, and its voice was short and intense. One after another, even though I didn't understand the meaning of its cry, I knew in my heart that something bad was about to happen!

The earth beast was calling, and another figure came in from outside the small hole, with a slender appearance, and after getting in, it suddenly bit the earth beast that looked like a sparrow from behind.

The little earth beast screamed, and I saw clearly that it was actually a big black snake that bit it from behind!

"!"

I cursed and rushed forward with my dagger. The big snake reacted very quickly, and immediately bit the little earth beast and immediately retreated, and in the blink of an eye, it got out of the hole. As I stood at the mouth of the cave, I could clearly hear the chaotic sounds of the woods, not only the shouts of the beasts, but also the sound of the spirits running in all directions.

Something was wrong, the thought came to me that something was coming, and it was something that frightened the beasts!
