A lone lamp fills the room.

The cat arrived in a new place, circled the room as usual, sniffed here, sniffed there, and finally came to the bedside and sniffed the quilt.

The swallow stood on the table, curling his neck and squinting, obviously tired from catching demons before.

All the bags are placed on the table.

After a while, the cat turned his head and said:

"It's weird here."

"Did Sanhua Niangniang also notice it?"

"The rats don't move here!"

"I see."

Song You went to wash slowly.

The cat followed him closely, and she followed him wherever he went, as if she had become a dog, and in the process, she kept stretching her neck and looking out of the doors and windows, as if she wanted to protect the safety of the Taoist priest in this uncomfortable environment that made her feel strange.

Until the Taoist finished washing, he bent down and picked her up.

At this time, the bodyguard cat, who was originally meticulous in performing his own defense tasks, suddenly softened again, and his whole body became like a cloth, which could be easily lifted up into a long strip, and he couldn't help shaking.

"There is a milky smell on Sanhua Niangniang's face......"

"Drink milk!"

"Why are you drinking......

"That's what you're drinking!"

The cat's body was soft and naturally drooping, but its expression was still serious, and it looked at him.

"It's just that Sanhua Niangniang lowers her head and licks the milk in the bowl to drink, and it will fly up by itself, all of which will fall on Sanhua Niangniang's face. Sanhua Niangniang herself is also very annoyed. ”

"I see."

"Put the three flower girls down."

"You have to wash your face."

"Sanhua Niangniang will wash it herself!"

The Taoist ignored her and forcibly washed her face, and then put her back on the ground.

By this time it was already deep in the night.

Song You went straight to bed and closed his eyes.

The three-flowered cat is not as relieved as he is.

On the contrary, she was worried.

After wiping his feet, he climbed into bed, approached the Taoist and looked at it again, it was obviously a cat face, but he seemed to frown.

Seeing that the Taoist was sleeping peacefully, she couldn't help but feel more worried in her heart, looked back and looked, and after a while, she turned around and jumped straight out of bed.

First, she ran through the quilt bag and blanket, found her little flag and water splitter, took her back to the bed, tried to stuff it under the pillow of the Taoist, and then found the money bag and hid it on the inside of the bed. After thinking about it for a while, he changed back into his human form and moved the bag back to the bed, which was a little more relieved.

It's just a little more reassuring.

Although the cat is lying on the bed, it is always facing the outside of the bed, and it is a posture that can stand up at any time, and its eyes are also half-squinted, and it is always vigilant.

"Sanhua Niangniang, don't guard it."

"Meow!!"

Suddenly, the voice of the Taoist came from the side, startling the vigilant cat.

When I turned around, I saw that my Taoist was still lying upright on the bed, with his eyes closed, as if he was dead, but he spoke: "Go to bed early, go to Yucheng tomorrow morning." ”

"Don't keep meow?"

The cat asked, puzzled.

"They're not coming."

"How do you know?"

"Guess."

"How do you guess?"

"Go to sleep, it's late at night."

"What if it comes?" The cat couldn't help but look under the pillow and the inside of the bed, as well as in the bag, but he had brought so much money and so many treasures.

"That's fine."

"Meow?"

"Sleep."

The Taoist stopped talking.

There are no big demons here, and there are no temples originally, and the monks all over the mountain are just some little demons and monsters, and the scriptures they learn from Buddhism are true. Even if it is the few great monks in the hall, the Taoism is actually quite limited, but the monsters all over the mountain are good at hiding the demonic energy and disguising as adults, and this temple is also doing it as if it were real, which is a kind of ability.

The big demon is not destined to be here, and the big demon is destined not to be found here.

It's just a way to get to the bottom of them.

Unless they quickly confirm that Song You doesn't actually have much ability and has real evidence to back it up, they will be able to do it tonight. But the big demon doesn't necessarily come out.

For a cultivator from Dayan, a person who raised his hand to melt the ice in the mountains, this demon in the Western Regions was very cautious.

Song You is not in a hurry now.

It seems that he is still in the light, and the other party is in the dark, and he doesn't know where he is hiding at all, but in fact, the initiative is already on his side.

Just wait for him to come and find him.

Song You quickly fell asleep.

The mountain is very quiet, the Yucheng area itself is not hot at night, and it is even cooler at night after the rain, this temple is actually very well repaired, the bed is good wood, and the bedding is silk filled, which is the most luxurious bed that Song You has slept in in his life, from this point of view, the monks of this temple did not treat him badly.

But it could also be that they are too rich to have no inferior products.

In the first half of the night, no one disturbed, and there were footsteps outside at the fourth watch, and some people stopped outside the window to peep at the fifth watch, and some people whispered, which caused the night cat to be vigilant.

Then there was another scolding, and it was quiet outside.

Song You had no dreams all night and slept peacefully.

The next morning, the sky cleared.

The great monks personally came to invite him to breakfast.

Sanhua Niangniang was very reluctant to go, so she wanted to stay in the room and guard her belongings, until Song You put on her blanket and carried her small flag and water splitting knife with her, and she finally went out.

Breakfast consisted of grapes, milk, and roasted naan, but the roasted naan provided by the temple was much softer than the roasted naan they had brought with them, and it tasted delicious.

After the meal, the monks sent each other.

The pomp and circumstance is very large.

Last night, a group of great monks were barefoot behind the Taoist, all the way down the steps, followed by all the monks of the entire temple, all standing at the gate of the mountain or on the steps, watching the Taoist and his party.

It's just that many people can't help but look at the bags on horseback, and for a while the Taoists can't tell whether they are here to send them or to see the water and the spirit.

"Farewell."

"The road is long and walk slowly."

The sound of horse bells jingles and echoes through the mountains.

It rained heavily last night, and the roads are still muddy.

The three-flowered cat also has to come down and walk, and the four cat paws, each step down has to poke a small hole in the mud, and the white gloves have also become mud gloves.

As he walked, he couldn't help but raise his head and glance at the swallows in the sky, revealing envy.

Suddenly, the swallow flew down.

"Sir."

The swallow landed on horseback and said to them, "The monastery behind you is gone!" ”

The cat suddenly stopped and turned its head to look.

Sure enough—

There is only a green hill left in the distance, half of which is a green meadow and half a dark green coniferous forest, and the colors and scenes are very clean. Don't say that the splendid temple last night has no traces of artificial carving.

"It's gone!"

The cat couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Although I knew that this temple was not ordinary, and I had already been mentally prepared, in a trance, there was still a feeling that I had strayed into the stories of gods and monsters that people often said.

“！”

Immediately, the cat reacted quickly, quickly turned into a human form, shook his hand, shook off a little mud on his hand, and hurriedly stood on tiptoe and rummaged on the horse's back.

The little flag is still there, and the waterknife is still there.

The money bag is still there.

The Quartet Lingyun is also good.

“……”

Sanhua Niangniang breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at her Taoist priest again, but saw that his expression was as calm and calm as ever, as if she had expected it.

"Let's go, Sanhua Niangniang."

The Taoist said a word and continued to move forward.

"What kind of youkai is that?" The girl hurriedly followed, and also took out her small bamboo cane to hold it, and quickened her steps to keep up with the Taoist.

"We'll find out later."

"Later?"

"yes."

"Will we ever see them again?"

"I won't necessarily see them again, because they're just small characters too." Song You paused, "But I guess we'll meet the one who controls them." ”

"How do you guess?"

"I'm smart."

“……”

"Can't you guess Sanhua Niangniang?"

“……”

The little girl was silent with her bamboo cane, because the child's legs were different from those of the adult, and she had to walk faster, so that she looked quite happy.

There was silence for a moment before she spoke again.

"That golden cone is amazing! If we had that golden cone, we wouldn't have to worry about walking on the road without meat to eat and water to drink in the desert! The little girl's eyes were shining, "Don't worry about going to the city without money!" You can have whatever you want! Knock it and you're there! ”

"It's just a thief."

"What thief?"

"A magic weapon for stealing things."

"What stealing?"

"Where does the roast chicken, the grilled fish, the bowl of milk and the jug of wine come from?" The Taoist turned his head to look at her, "Isn't it just like grapes, stolen from other places?" ”

"Hmm......"

The little girl couldn't help but scratch her head.

That's not going to work.

It's not okay to steal.

The rat was caught by a cat because he stole something.

After about twenty miles, the road quickly became dry.

Song You stood on the dry loess road and stomped his feet hard, throwing off all the mud on his shoes, and if he couldn't shake it off, he patiently scraped it off with a bamboo cane.

The girl next to him obviously had a better way to remove the mud, but she also stood next to him, learned his movements, stomped her feet, and scraped the mud with a bamboo cane.

While learning, I also observed his original version.

Song You couldn't help but rub her head.

Continue for twenty miles, and you will arrive outside the gate of the Jade City.

This is a city built in the clear water and green mountains, there is a heavy city wall outside the city, there are groups of camels and horses in and out of the city gate, most of the people who come and go are the faces of the Western Regions, both men and women are wearing local characteristic clothing, wrapping their heads and wearing jade, through the city gate, you can also get a glimpse of the buildings inside, and the architectural style of Dayan is very different.

There was even a faint sound of local music.

In just one moment, an exotic atmosphere came to your face.

Song You glanced at it, and then stepped forward.

showed the degree, plus the handwriting of the governor of Shazhou, and then entered the city and came to the world of the Western Regions.
