Chapter 64: The Taoist Priest Bets
"I don't care whose apprentice she is." The prince kicked the scar man with his toes, "Do you know where the demon is?" ”
The man with the scar couldn't say it, thought about it, wrote the word "male demon" on the paper, and wrote "Linlai".
"It's a banshee, called Linlai?"
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Huh": "Why is this name so similar to Ling Nai?" He usually looks weak, where does he look like a monster? ”
"Who is Ling Nai?" The prince asked as he walked to the door.
"It's Nan Zhutou's friend, and he walks closest to her on weekdays, and he rarely has contact with other people."
The prince laughed, turned around and returned to the front of the case, sat on the Taishi chair, took the shocking wood, and folded his legs on the case: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, Nan Zhutou, you have such a hobby, raising a male demon?" It's a lover, right? ”
Nan Xiutong raised his eyes and said categorically: "No." ”
"This prince hates monsters the most, and as a result, the officials of the alliance actually raise demons privately, I don't know if the court knows about it." The prince played with the startling wood in his hand, looking cynical, "If you don't know, the next time I see the emperor, I will definitely inform you about it!" ”
The county magistrate panicked and hurriedly said: "Prince Maya, the matter has not yet been clarified, so we can't make a conclusion so early." ”
"When Prince Ben first looked for you, you didn't take me seriously, and now you know that you are afraid?" The prince didn't wait for the county order to say anything, sat up straight, and slapped the case suddenly, "Someone!" Capture Ling Nai! ”
The sound of "pop" shocked the people in unison.
The aunt was so frightened that she lost her soul, and subconsciously wanted to help something, and her body fell to Su Jingtang's side, Su Jingtang was hit on the arm, her wrist was crooked, and the watermelon broke with a "pop", and the juice that she didn't have time to drink in the middle splashed on the ground.
Su Jingtang looked at the watermelon on the ground and the juice on his shoes in a daze, his ruddy lips moved, and he trembled a little: "Sweet, melon......"
"The shoes are dirty." Wen Xun spoke in a low voice, his fingers tapped, and the juice on his shoes disappeared. She looked at him sadly, still holding the golden spoon in her right hand, "It's gone." ”
"I'll buy it later, you've eaten enough today."
"At this time of year in the mortal world, it's so hard to buy, I can't buy it, it's gone." Su Jingtang choked.
The aunt next to her was babbling: "Miss Su, you are still thinking about melons, your deceased Ling Nai is going to be arrested as a monster." ”
"You also said that my melon was the one you touched." Su Jingtang complained with a bitter face.
The aunt looked weak: "I'm not scared by that prince yet." ”
In the lobby, Nan Xiutong glanced at his subordinates outside, and his subordinates understood, glanced at the prince, and were about to slip away from the door, but were caught by the prince's attendants.
"With me here, you are not allowed to leave the yamen for half a step!" The prince was noisy, ignoring the dark face of the county order, and instead ordered the guards, "You go find someone to ......"
The guards took the order and walked towards the door, the crowd automatically gave way, and Su Jingtang looked at the melon on the ground motionlessly.
"Get out of the way!" The guard pushed out the scabbard in front of him and shouted at him.
Wen Xun squinted his eyes, his fingers moved slightly, Su Jingtang took half a step forward, grabbed Wen Xun's fingers, looked at the guards sullenly, and pointed to the melons on the ground: "The road is so wide, do you have to pass from me?" Don't you see that the ground is dirty and you can't walk? ”
Hearing the familiar voice, the prince strode over and put on a smiling face: "I said who is so bold, it turns out to be Miss Su." He waved his hand at the guard, "Hurry up, don't get out of the way here." ”
"Miss Su is not tired from standing outside for a long time, why don't you come in and sit and watch the excitement?" Prince hippie smiley.
The onlookers looked at Miss Su, then at the prince, and whispered-
"Ling Nai is Miss Su's old friend, the prince wants to arrest Ling Nai, isn't Miss Su angry?"
"Does this prince have a crush on Miss Su?"
"Miss Su has Ling Nai and Wen Gongzi by her side, where can she still care about others......"
The prince suddenly asked, "Miss Su is very familiar with that monster?" ”
Su Jingtang asked slowly: "Are you so sure that Ling Nai is a demon?" ”
"If Miss Su doesn't believe it, we'll see later." The prince was confident, "If I can prove that he is a monster, how about you promise me one thing?" ”
"That's too cheap for you."
"It seems that even Miss Su thinks Ling Nai is a monster."
Soon, the guard led a man in a Taoist uniform. When the man knew his fate, his temples were slightly white, his steps were steady, he had a beard similar to that of a prince, and he touched it from time to time, with an unfathomable look. He carried his baggage cross-body, and it jingled inside as he walked.
The Taoist priest strutted with his nostrils facing the sky, and when he passed by Su Jingtang and Wen Xun, the voice in the baggage was silent for a moment.
The Taoist priest lowered his head and shook his burden, and it sounded again, a moment of trance flashed on his face, and then he gave his hand to the prince as if nothing happened: "In Xia Kunshan, Zhou Changzi specializes in the affairs of demons and ghosts." ”
The prince looked at the Taoist priest presumptuously: "You are a famous immortal Taoist priest within a radius of a hundred miles?" ”
The Taoist priest straightened his waist: "I don't dare to call myself an immortal, but as long as I make a move, there will be no monster that can run away from my hands!" ”
Su Jingtang looked at the Taoist priest with a look of surprise, her eyes flashed, and she asked the prince with great interest: "This Taoist priest you are looking for, can you see the identities of all the monsters?" ”
Before the prince could speak, the Taoist priest rushed ahead: "The girl looks down on my old Tao? Wait a minute, just lead the monster to me, there's nothing I can't recognize! ”
"In that case, how about Prince Maya make a bet?"
"What bet?" The prince was also interested.
"If the Taoist priest you found can really recognize the monster here, I promise you a condition, if you can't, you kneel down and learn to bark, and scold yourself for being a pig and a dog."
The prince had a cold face: "What do you mean?" ”
"Looking at your face, did you already guess that you were going to lose?"
"I can't lose, I heard that this person is the most powerful Taoist priest in Wu County, and he has never missed." After the prince finished speaking, he looked at the Taoist priest, "If you lose, you kneel down and learn to bark as a dog, and scold yourself for being a pig and a dog." ”
The Taoist priest raised his chin: "Look, I have read countless demons, and I have never failed!" ”
Su Jingtang smiled: "Wu County is really interesting!" ”

After a cup of tea, the prince's bodyguard pushed Ling Nai over, and Splashy and the others followed behind him, looking strange.
"I heard that Ling Nai is a monster? How can this cowardly be a monster, and he usually has to be protected by a woman! ”
Other people also felt reasonable: "I don't think he's like a monster, how can there be such a monster to bully." ”
"I think he's like, how can there be ordinary people who look as good as him, most of them are monsters."
"Miss Su and Wen Gongzi are both good-looking, why don't you dare to say it?"
"They are great good people, how can they be demons!"
Su Jingtang couldn't help laughing, and looked at Wen Xun mischievously: "Wen is a good person." Wen Xun raised his eyebrows, "Miss Su." ”
Ling Nai was dressed in a moon-white robe, his hands were pressed behind his back, and he was forced to hang his head and bend over, and there were old people in the crowd who had received his favor who couldn't look at it, and couldn't bear to shout Ling Nai's name, sighing that he was a pitiful child.
Nan Xiutong looked at him intently, and he gave her a reassuring look, with a light in his eyes. She clenched her sleeves, her heart was in a mess, the last time she was so overwhelmed was the day of Master's accident.
As soon as the guards pressed Ling Nai into the lobby, the prince drew his sword and stabbed at Ling Nai: "Let this prince explore you first!" ”
