Chapter 37: Grandfather and grandson

The temple door is very complete, there is no damage at all, but after decades of wind and rain, the door frame beams and pillars have been mottled, and the windows will have some broken holes every now and then, but it can be clearly seen that this is considered to have been repaired.

The plaque hangs directly above it in its entirety, but the font is so blurred that it is impossible to make out what the words are, so there is no way to know what kind of temple it is.

On the whole, there is nothing wrong with this temple except for the darkness, but the fire inside that changes from red to green reveals the coldness of the forest, which makes me extremely uncomfortable.

I always felt that there was some great threat lurking in this temple, even more so than the threat of the two ghosts that followed me, but I didn't have time to think about it at the moment, so I could only hide in it.

However, before I could push the door, the temple door suddenly made a creepy sound, "Squeak... Squeak ......" opened.

Then I felt a large mass, no, a large black thing, which suddenly fell from the sky as the temple door opened, and the speed was so fast that it had no time to dodge, and before I could react, it had already fallen on me.

Even the Three Treasures were not spared, and they were pressed against this black thing together and wrapped up directly.

I tried to break free, but the more I struggled, the more I couldn't get out, and my strength seemed to be useless here. By touch, I realized that we were surrounded by a very large net, yes, a net, covering the hood, and we couldn't break free at all.

I didn't understand what was going on, and I didn't even have time to be frightened, when I heard a very old voice suddenly come from inside the temple:

"Hahahaha, good grandson, let's hurry up and see what beasts we caught this time, it seems that we can have a few delicious meals again."

As he spoke, an unkempt, tattered, and emaciated old man, holding a long jade stick glowing with green light in his hand, slowly walked out of the temple gate.

Behind him was a chubby man with a pair of short-sighted glasses and a filthy face, who looked to be about twenty.

When I saw that it was a person, I was immediately relieved.

At this time, Sambo began to squeak and scream almost at the same time, and kept biting the rope of the net, as if he wanted to break free from the net.

When the old man saw this situation, he was also taken aback at the moment, and he couldn't help but snort twice, and then said to the big fat boy in a panic: "I said grandson, go and see what kind of monsters these are, how can they all be such a big physique, could it be that they have caught a few monsters." ”

I heard the big fat boy take over and say: "Grandpa, I don't dare to go to see it, I want to go to you, those big guys must be some kind of monsters turned into monsters after the beast becomes a sperm, you look at them all with green eyes, grinning teeth, I go over, don't you have to eat me?" ”

The old man raised his hand and slapped the big fat boy's head directly, and then said angrily: "Look at you cowardly egg, when will you be able to have some luck?" There is a net covering them, can they still bite you? Forget it, it's better for your grandfather and me to do it himself, I'll see what kind of monsters this is. ”

As he spoke, the old man was about to step forward.

I hurriedly spoke: "Old sir, old man, don't panic, don't panic, they are not monsters, they are just a little bigger, they are just ordinary beasts, and they are all good friends under you, don't hurt them." ”

"Yo, yo, yo, this monster has really become a spirit, how can it speak human words?"

"I'm not a monster, I'm a human, a big living person, I don't believe you came to see it."

After listening to my words, the old man immediately asked his grandson to go back to the temple and light the candle, and then he gave it to him, and then he carefully stretched the candle in front of me.

I was enveloped in candlelight in an instant, and my whole body appeared in front of the old man's eyes without reservation......

After some careful identification, the old man's expression changed from puzzled to suddenly bright, and he couldn't help but say in surprise:

"Yo, it's really a big living person, that's right, it's a big living person, and there are three big monsters, hehe, interesting, interesting, this strange thing happens every day, there are a lot of it today, a big guy, actually with three big monsters, and even said that he was a good friend, this is really the first strange news in the world, grandson! Grandson! Hurry up and close the net, and release them for me to see, eh! Wait a minute... Wait, I said Housheng, you three monsters can't bite, right? ”

I hurriedly arched my hand and said, "No, no, I'll put them away, so as not to scare you." ”

As I spoke, I hurriedly recited the mantra silently, and with a pat of the bag, I took the Three Treasures into my bag......

The old man was not surprised to see that I had the Three Treasures in my pocket, but his big fat grandson was so shocked that he screamed.

I heard the old man turn his head and scold his grandson: "What's the name of a useless thing?" Isn't it just a mess? To scare you like this, it seems that you have to go out and see the world. ”

The old man's words shocked me a lot, and I would never have imagined that in this poor country in the mountains and forests, there would be people who would recognize my Qiankun bag, and that I was a bad old man dressed like a beggar, and it seemed that this old man was not an ordinary person.

I was so surprised that I looked at the old man, and didn't say a word for a long time, and finally the old man spoke first: "I said, boy, do you want to ask me, how did you know this Qiankun bag?" ”

I quickly nodded yes.

"Hahahaha..... this is a long story, I'll tell you in a while, it's better to release you first, grandson, don't hurry up and let this little brother go."

This temple is much larger than the Guantian Temple, and the temple enshrines a statue of the dragon king, but it is already in a dilapidated state. There are still some murals similar to narrative style that can be vaguely seen on the surrounding walls, the patterns are blurred and dilapidated, but it can still be seen that above the misty sky, there is a real dragon soaring through the clouds, with a pair of eyes full of wisdom, overlooking all living beings......

The temple is quite clean, but there are a lot of daily necessities piled up. There are chopping boards, kitchen knives, stone tables, and a large iron pot that has been hung up, and below it is a simple stove made of bricks and stones.

At the back, behind the statue of the Dragon King, there was a large stone bed, and a fairly square rock, on which there was an old-fashioned radio, but it looked like it was broken.

The old man beckoned me to sit down in front of the stone platform, and asked his fat grandson to pour me a bowl of muddy water.

I don't know how many miles I ran this night, and my mouth was already dry, so I didn't care if there was a problem with the water, whether it was clean or not, and I drank three bowls in one go, which was considered to be relieved.

For the next two hours or so, I had a conversation with the old man, nothing more than asking each other, talking about each other's identities and origins, and so on......
