241. False Beast
"What does Chang'e's beauty look like? Will you give us the elixir later? Meng Yao asked me.
"I don't know......" I shook my head.
After a while, the rabbit came back again, and said, "Our master is not convenient to see guests for the time being, and needs to dress up, so you may have to wait a little longer, there is a shortage of materials in the nest city, and there is nothing to entertain, only these fruit trees that my master usually planted, please take them at will." ”
In fact, the three of us had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and we immediately planned to stop being polite, and go and take all kinds of fat and tender fruits from the tree to quench our thirst.
I picked a few plums and just brought them to my mouth, but I smelled a strong smell of blood.
"How can the fruit smell of blood?" I wondered.
"Because these fruit trees grow in this mountain, they don't see sunlight all year round, and they smell like rot and rust, not blood." The rabbit said.
I felt a little strange, and I remembered all the disgusting scenes I had seen in this nest city before, when I put down those few plums and didn't plan to eat them.
"Isn't there something wrong with you doing this? Is it to despise the hospitality of our hosts? The rabbit asked me angrily.
"Your master refuses to even meet us, I'm afraid he is despising us, right?" I say.
"As I said, our master is getting dressed! I'm going to rush her now! The rabbit jumped into the depths of the garden.
At this time, I also asked Feng Mengyao and the two of them not to eat the fruit on this tree, this is a trap.
And even if that rabbit looks harmless to humans and animals, it may not be a terrible monster!
"Doesn't it call itself Jade Rabbit? And the owner of the house...... Anyway, I don't believe it, I'll really see that fairy Chang'e later! Feng Mengyao shook her head.
But as soon as Feng Mengyao's words fell, a crisp and pleasant voice came from the depths of the garden: "I'm slacking you, the slave family is late!" ”
All three of us stiffened our necks and looked incredulously at the man who spoke.
Dressed in white, with long hair like a waterfall, ten fingers slender, skin like clotted fat, eyes like water, and beauty beyond measure.
The beautiful woman in white moved the lotus step lightly, through the flower branches and treetops of the garden, and came towards us, always with a shallow smile on her face, she was really a fairy in the sky!
I rubbed my eyes and felt that the current situation was completely beyond my imagination!
"Chang'e...... Fairy? Don't you live in Guanghan Palace? Why are we here to meet you? I asked in disbelief.
The woman in white hid her face and chuckled, saying that Chang'e running to the moon was just a myth and legend, how could there be a palace on the moon? She has never left the world, but has been traveling all over the world.
"Then why are you in this nest city now? Also, how did you live so long? Did you really take the elixir of life as in the myths and legends? I asked.
The woman in white nodded.
After that, I asked the woman in white many questions, and she answered them seamlessly.
However, the moment the woman in white lifted her skirt and sat on the stone bench, I had already seen through her true identity, but I was not in a hurry to dismantle her.
Immediately, the woman in white asked us to eat the fruit from the tree, saying that she had planted it with her own hands, because there was no sunlight in the canyon, so the taste of the fruit would be a little strange, but when you eat it, it is absolutely tender and delicious.
I looked at the woman in white with a smile.
Forget it, let's play with it here.
After seeing it with my own eyes today, I was sure that this strange beast was really the same as recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", running trains with a mouth, and there were too many plays!
"I can eat it, but only if I touch your ass." I said to the woman in white.
The woman in white blushed suddenly, and scolded softly: "You little doll, why do you say such vulgar words casually." ”
"Then you answer me honestly, do you want me to touch it? Still don't want to? I asked with a grin.
"Yes!" The woman in white said loudly.
Feng Mengyao and Meng Yao were dumbfounded!
"Then I touched it." I reached for it.
The woman in white hurriedly jumped up and said, "You stinky and reckless man, Hugh is disrespectful to this fairy!" ”
"Hmph, you're a fairy? I think you're a stupid thing! Tell me, you're not stupid! I said.
"I'm a stupid thing!" The woman in white yelled.
"Hahaha!" My stomach hurts from laughing.
Feng Mengyao and the two of them haven't figured out the situation yet, and they don't know why this so-called "Fairy Chang'e" suddenly went crazy and began to scold herself?
"Fairy Chang'e, where is your jade rabbit? Why has it disappeared since you came out? I asked.
"It's preparing dishes for you!" The woman in white said.
"Prepare your mother's head! You tell me! Did your mother give birth to you? Or did your dad give birth to you? I yelled at the woman in white.
"My dad gave birth to me!" The woman in white replied.
"What are you doing? Take down this lying beast that can't tell the truth! I turned to Feng Mengyao and said.
When the beast saw that its identity was revealed, it panicked and turned around and wanted to escape!
But what she didn't know was that I had already summoned Xiao Hei out, blocking the way to escape, and as soon as she took a step, Xiao Hei pressed her to the ground.
Feng Mengyao's black fox tail also swept over quickly, tying up the woman in white!
"Ladies and gentlemen, spare your lives! The slave knows it's wrong! When the woman in white saw that the situation was not good, she immediately confessed and begged for mercy.
"Manifest yourself." I said coldly.
A burst of white light flashed, and the woman in white became the white-haired rabbit just now.
"One person plays two roles, I think it's really hard for you." I said with a sneer.
"Your Excellency, you have a large number, don't worry about the small ones, the small ones are just doing things under orders, and they have stayed here for decades, and they have never murdered a few people." The beast cried.
I can believe this, because according to the record of the "Divine Sutra", the beast is probably the kindest of the eighteen monsters in the world.
It's just that the beast is too fond of deceiving people, and is so naturally unable to tell the truth.
I almost got tricked by this guy at first, if it weren't for the short rabbit tail under the hem of her clothes when she sat down.
"What's going on with this garden? What did Guo Shouzhen ask you to do here? Tell me all about it! I know you can't speak the truth, write it for me! I said.
The beast had always been soft-boned, and immediately all of them left their stalls, biting a branch of a tree, and wrote the truth on the ground of the garden.
The flowers, plants, and fruit trees in the garden are all real, but under the garden, there is "divine food", and the fruit trees in the garden are all absorbed by the nutrients of the "divine food".
And the "divine food" mentioned by the beast, combined with what we saw on the temple murals before, is the soul of the group of human-faced stinging bees absorbed in the heads of living people.
"What would have happened if we had been tricked by you into eating the fruit of this nursery?" I asked.
The beast wrote, "Aging, demonizing, assimilating with the other monsters in the Hive. ”
"Meng Xun was deceived by you into eating the fruit like this, and finally became like that?" I asked.
The beast nodded.
I let out a sigh of relief, and I figured out the situation.
In this nest city, the eighteen kinds of human-faced beasts all have their own division of labor.
When Meng Yao and I first entered the nest city, the mountain plow army with a human face and a dog body was reporting the news, the snake with a human face and a snake body at the bottom of the river was disposing of the human corpse that had been drained of the soul, the roe deer owl with a human face and a sheep body acted as a guard and transported the human corpse, and Lu Wu, who had a human face and a tiger body, guarded the Heavenly Emperor Garden......
Everyone is doing their own thing, and the beast can't do anything but deceive people, Guo Shouzhen just let it stay in this "meat forest", deal with those invaders who break into the nest city, and turn them into a part of the nest city.
"How many people have you killed?" I asked.
"I've hurt three, and I've missed two." The beast wrote.
"Oh my God, you're too inferior! So, didn't you just hurt Meng Xun alone? Really not lying? I asked.
"No, you know what level my means are." The beast wrote.
I laughed dryly, this is true, but anyone with some vigilance and brains will probably not be deceived by this beast, and this guy's combat effectiveness is basically zero.
"I've asked all the questions, what to do with it?" Feng Mengyao asked me.
I squinted my eyes and looked at the beast, its appearance was indeed cute, especially the pair of black, sparkling eyes, which made people's hearts melt when they looked at it, which was also one of the capitals it could deceive.
The beast immediately spit out the branch in its mouth, and shouted at me with tears in its eyes: "Kill me! Please, kill me! ”
I know it's begging for mercy, so I don't want to kill it, because it's in its nature to tell the truth.
"Brother Xiaohai, didn't you just say that the heart of the beast is actually very kind? Why don't we leave it alive, the price is to let it lead the way for us, everything in this nest city is clear, we can quickly find the box you are looking for, find out the truth of the three-eyed evil god, and then quickly leave this ghost place and go back to find Hu Tianheng of the Sanqing Palace for revenge. Meng Yao persuaded.
I looked at Feng Mengyao and asked her opinion.
"You decide." Feng Mengyao said it didn't matter.
I turned my head to look at the beast again, and its tears fell down its eyes, and its mouth repeatedly, "Don't spare my life!" ”
I thought about it for a while, but I still didn't let the pity of this beast move my hard-hearted heart.
"Leave it alive, the harm outweighs the good, let's slaughter it." I say.
