As soon as it was dawn on the second day, the mountain master took the villagers up the mountain.

Because Qinghuang sensed someone coming up the mountain from a distance, we were prepared.

Jing Kang took those pills, rested for another night, and his health was fine, Qiu An and I wanted him to appear in front of everyone, but Jing Kang had other ideas.

He made himself very sloppy again, and then said to me, "If you want someone to accept your kindness, you have to make a show." ”

As he said, those villagers in Qingfeng Village saw Jingkang's appearance, and their eyes were full of unbearable admiration.

After all, Master Shanshi has a long experience, and seeing that Jingkang is not as out of shape as those mountain people, he said to Jingkang politely: "There is a family of Lao Shengren, I don't know what happened to the mountain demon?"

Jing Kang looked up at Master Shanshi, and said quite easily: "The mountain demon has been destroyed by me, and the fathers and villagers of Qingfeng Village can live with peace of mind in the future." “

"What, the mountain demon has been destroyed?"

"The mountain demon is finally dead. ”

"In this way, I don't have to live in fear in Qingfeng Village in the future. ”

"The saint is really powerful, he can be said to be the lucky star of our Qingfeng Village. ”

Those mountain people couldn't help but start whispering, the mountain master heard it clearly, but his face was extremely flat, I saw him cough lightly, and those mountain people suddenly fell silent.

Master Shanshi smiled with a clear breeze on his face, and said respectfully to this Jingkang: "There is a saint of Lao, the great kindness of the saint, our Qingfeng Village will be remembered forever, don't dare to forget." ”

Jingkang just waved his hand, "It's a trivial matter, Master Shanshi doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Unexpectedly, Master Shanshi's words changed next, and he caught us off guard.

"Now that the mountain demon has been destroyed, I wonder if the saint can show us the body of the mountain demon, so that my mountain people can be more at ease. ”

Although the words of the mountain master are respectful, they are also impossible to refuse.

Jing Kang didn't think much about it, took out the demon cage, and did not open it, but urged it with a spell, the demon cage floated in mid-air, became transparent, and the spirit of Gu Shou Bird appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The mountain people were startled at the first sight of the bird, but later realized that it was its corpse, so one by one they became happy again.

Master Shanshi was not as happy as those people, he glanced at Gu Xuaniao quite calmly, and said to Jingkang: "Thank you sage, I still have something to ask the sage, I hope the sage can agree to me." ”

"Master Shanshi, but it doesn't hurt to say. Jingkang still didn't take it to heart, and replied quite casually.

The mountain master made a big salute and said to Jingkang with a sincere face: "After all, this big bird has been harming Qingfeng Village for several years, so the old man wants to ask for a favor, and wants to send down the body of this big bird and offer it in the ancestral temple, first, so that future generations can thank the saint for his kindness, and secondly, it can be regarded as a warning to future generations, and the principle is evil." ”

I looked at Xiang Jingkang, for fear that he would have a hot brain, so I casually agreed to Master Shanshi.

Unexpectedly, Jingkang didn't look at me, still with a smile, and I became nervous.

Then Jing Kang said, "No!"

The smile on the face of the mountain master faded, and he looked at Jing Kang with a cold face.

Jingkang still didn't care, and didn't have the slightest fear, and explained to the mountain master calmly: "The family master doesn't allow us to use spells outside, so I want to bring this demon body back, which can be regarded as an explanation, and besides, this demon body stays in Qingfeng Village, if the timing is not right, I am afraid that it will resurge." ”

Hear Jing Kang say this

, There was a terrifying expression on the faces of the mountain people in the back, and although the mountain master was not afraid, he still promised Jingkang.

Later, the mountain master still wanted to keep us to continue to live, he said: "You have a great kindness to my Qingfeng Village, the saint's family does not have to be polite, you can live as long as you want, and the whole Qingfeng Village will naturally treat you as guests." ”

When Master Shanshi said this, he was happiest than Jiubai, who smiled very happily on his little face.

Jingkang refused, took me to say goodbye to the mountain master, and said that he would leave when he was ready.

The mountain master was a little impatient, and later persuaded Jing Kang and said: "Since the sage Engong wants to leave, it is not easy for the old man to stay, but I only ask the engong to stay for one more day, and the old man wants to set up a long table banquet today to come for you." ”

Hearing the long table banquet, Jiubai's face showed a yearning look, pursed his mouth, and secretly pulled the corner of my clothes.

When Jingkang saw Jiubai's actions, he glanced at me, and no longer refused, and allowed Master Shanshi.

Seeing that we agreed, the mountain master led the mountain people down the mountain happily.

I clearly noticed that there was an uncomfortable color in the eyes of the mountain master.

......

......

After they left, I asked Jingkang, "Why do you want to stay one more night, aren't you afraid of any changes?"

"Change?"

The breeze blowing through the hall in the mountains blew the corners of Jingkang's clothes, "Stay, it's because Jiubai is reluctant to be here, so he wants to stay for one night, as for the change, it shouldn't be, and with our cultivation, even if there is a change, what can we do." ”

I wanted to say something, but Jing Kang said to me, "Don't worry, let's be careful when the time comes, just get out of Qingfeng Village as soon as possible." ”

......

......

On this night, the moon was wonderful, and the moon was full and hung in the sky clearly.

This time the long table banquet was even more grand than the last one, Jing Kang and Qinghuang checked the wine and food twice, and repeatedly confirmed that they were not poisonous, before nodding at me reassuringly.

Since it was because Jiubai stayed for more than one night, I let him play with those children in Qingfeng Village this night, and I was relieved that there was a spirit tree to protect him.

Master Shanshi is still sincere to others, and he has staggered with Jing Kang, and has drunk a lot of wine.

Originally, I was faintly uneasy in my heart, but when I saw that everything was going on as usual, I relaxed my vigilance, perhaps because I was unfounded.

And so it was until late at night.

Thinking that the night was too dark and it was time for Jiubai to rest, I was going to get up and go to find Jiubai, but just as I was about to get up, I felt that the world was spinning and I sat down in front of the wine table.

Jing Kang laughed, pointed at me and said, "Son, you drank too much!"

I was a little embarrassed, but I collapsed on the ground and couldn't get up.

Jingkang was still smiling, and he got up and was about to come over to help me, but he didn't expect him to take a step, and just like me, he collapsed on the ground.

"You've drunk too much......"

I was about to laugh at Jingkang when I suddenly felt that something was wrong, so I turned around and looked around.

The sight in front of me made me feel very terrifying: all the mountain people in Qingfeng Village fell to the ground, their eyes were misty, and they all looked extremely weak, not at all because they had drunk too much.

I looked for Jiubai and Qiu'an in the crowd again, they were lying on the ground very weakly like those mountain people, but fortunately, the spirit tree was unhindered, and I made a cover for myself on the side to protect them in case of any accidents.
