Dawn of the Immortal Mountain Chapter 23: In the ancient temple, the fox demon appears
In the silent mountain forest, a faint moonlight sprinkled into a dilapidated ancient temple in the mountain.
The ancient temple had collapsed, and a night breeze swept by, and the grass growing among the ruins swayed.
The plaque on the ancient temple is gone, and its name is unknown.
However, there is a dilapidated Buddha statue sitting in the temple, and it can be guessed that this place should have been an ancient temple in the mountains in the past.
It's not surprising that it's like this now.
Everyone in the world knows that not long after His Majesty the current emperor ascended the throne, he issued an edict to destroy the Buddha for various reasons.
Since then, in the territory of the Jokhang Kingdom, whether it is a glorious Buddhist temple or an ancient temple hidden in the mountains, it has been wiped out.
To this day, Buddhism still has no way to preach the Dharma and preach in the territory of the Great Zhou, and even the disciples of Buddhism will be directly called demon monks, and they can be rewarded if they are caught in the county government.
Su Mu and Tan Rusu escorted the four hunters to the ancient temple and threw the four of them in.
The four of them also knelt down and begged for mercy, "Grandpa Fox Fairy, Grandma Fox Fairy, we have no choice but to do that, we all have such thoughts for the sake of dozens of families in our village not to be slaughtered, please beg Grandpa Fox Fairy, Grandma Fox Fairy forgive us." ”
"What a fox fairy grandma,"
Tan Rusu was quite displeased with such a title, but he was also curious about what they were talking about, and asked, "You said you are for dozens of families in the village?" ”
"yes,"
The bearded man was busy and said, "The four of us are from Songshan Village in the east, and there is a bandit named Beixiang Village not far from our village, and they gather hundreds of people in the mountains and forests."
"When the owner heard that there was a white fox in this mountain, he asked us to hunt the white fox skin within three days, otherwise he would kill our entire village."
Some people think that in the eyes of the immortals, mortal life is like grass mustard and is not worth mentioning.
But in Tan Rusu's eyes, this is obviously not the case.
However, she was not indignant because of these words, and immediately set off to the so-called North Township to eliminate the group of bandits who killed living beings.
She didn't completely disbelieve what the four of them said, and looked at the four of them with interest, "You want to say, is this the reason why you are greedy for money?" ”
The four of them were stunned at the same time.
I thought that it was really a monster, and after killing so many people, how could I understand their feelings?
"Even if what you say is true, you can draw a knife and rob the money?"
It was Su Mu who spoke, he had already heard the origin of the four people before, and said with an extremely calm expression: "What's more, you are not the villagers of Songshan Village, but the bandits of the North Township, and there are not a few people who want to die at your hands." ”
As a three-good young man in the new century, in the face of such a big traitor, Su Mu naturally did not have a good face.
In fact, he often said that slaying demons and eliminating demons is really not just a slogan to cover up.
She wouldn't agree with such a reason, and she wouldn't even have the feeling that poor people must have something to hate.
Tan Ru Su didn't believe it, and it was not surprising to hear Su Mu's words, but he took it for granted, so he stopped paying attention to the four of them and talked to Su Mu about the fox demon.
The two walked outside the temple, and Monk Hai got out of the bag, and said a little melancholy: "There is no breath of fox demons around, this monster will not be aware of us, and it will not not come." ”
He didn't want to see a lot of money go away like this.
"It's possible,"
Su Mu didn't perceive the fox demon, but he also thought that they entered the place where the fox demon arranged the phantom array and brought out the four people, "It stands to reason that the fox demon will definitely pay close attention to the four people, and we have some contact with them, although we have hidden our cultivation, we dare not guarantee 100% that they will not be discovered." ”
"It's a possibility,"
Tan Rusu thought about it seriously, "No matter what, it's already here, let's wait in the temple for one night." ”
Thereupon.
They entered the temple and instructed the two bandits to go out and collect some firewood, during which the two tried to escape, but were frightened back by the sea monk.
Monk Hai, who has always been very bold, finally caught the guy who was afraid of him, and he also teased him.
It didn't take long.
A bonfire was lit in the temple.
Su Mu took out the food purchased in Shushan from his sleeve, such as Eight Immortal Rice, Hibiscus Cake, Drunken Immortal Brew and the like.
Originally, he didn't pay half a penny when he bought these things, and he couldn't avoid Tan Rusu's cynicism, but he ignored it.
In the midst of the joy of the two and a monkey.
The four bandits could only hide in the corner and shiver.
With a cold wind blowing in from outside the temple, the bonfire was almost extinguished.
Needless to say, Su Mu and Tan Rusu had already seen the demonic aura that appeared outside the temple.
Suddenly.
Out of the thick demonic aura came a young girl with a sad look and a lame leg and foot.
The girl was dressed in white, and there was a lot of dirt on it, and her face was haggard, and ordinary people knew at a glance that she was a girl in distress.
"This son, the little woman went up the mountain to look for her father, but she didn't find the father and son, but she accidentally fell down the ravine, and her legs and feet were injured and inconvenient, I don't know if the son can be kind enough to allow the little woman to rest here for a while,"
Her voice is pitiful and a little coquettish, and with that pitiful flower and moon countenance, I am afraid that even a man will pity her.
For example, the four bandits hiding in the corner, but they also quickly thought of the identities of Su Mu and Tan Ru Su Fox Demon, and they regretted this young girl even more.
I thought that your father was only afraid that he had been eaten by these two fox demons, maybe the pastries and drinks in their hands were the father of this girl.
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but think that they were afraid that it would not be long before it would become food in the hands of the two of them, and they were terrified, and they didn't have the heart to feel sorry for this girl.
And Su Mu saw the scene in front of him.
It reminded him of some film and television dramas he had watched, and said with a smile: "This is natural, girl, please take a seat." ”
Tan Ru also said: "Girl, don't you know that there is a fox demon in this mountain? How dare you go into the mountain alone at such a late hour? ”
"I know, I know, but my father didn't come home, and I can't do anything."
I saw him sobbing, probably wanting to show Su Mu and the others that she probably already knew that her father was killed.
Su Mu sighed and handed over a pastry, "Don't worry, girl, we are also looking for people in the mountains, and the last four are what we just found in a dense forest, but they may have been overly frightened by the fox demon, and they haven't come back to their senses at the moment, I believe that Ling Zunji people have their own natural appearance, and they will be fine." ”
The girl's soft little life touched Su Mu very naturally, with tears in her eyes, "Thank you Gongzi Jiyan, it's just that I'm a little cold now, can Gongzi help close the temple door?" ”
Su Mu was also very cooperative, patted the other party's tender little hand gently, and said, "Of course." ”
A voice sounded in the hearts of the four bandits hiding in the temple almost at the same time, "Sure enough, it's a beast, and my wife is still by her side, and she hasn't restrained it at all." ”
They naturally regarded Tan Rusu as Su Mu's daughter-in-law.
Considers.
The next moment after closing the temple door was for them to be dumbfounded.
Even Su Mu and Tan Rusu felt incredible.
As soon as Su Mu turned around, the girl turned into a fox demon knelt down towards him, and kowtowed: "Ask the immortal master to save the little demon's life." ”
