Chapter 81: Saving People from Danger and Receiving Rewards
The Taoist master who got the shark bead was triumphant in his heart, he was no longer obsessed with his own demon hunting career, and felt that this barren barren mountain could no longer accommodate himself, he wanted to go out and find a way to convert the shark pearl in his hand into real money, so that he could be worthy of his life.
He said to Childe in private, "You take some time to tidy up your clothes, and we will leave this place in the near future and go to the downtown area." The scholar is used to being quiet, and he is thinking about Miss Yu'er in his heart, how can he be willing to leave.
So, he excused himself to have something to do, and he refused to pack his bags for a long time, and his excuse prevarication made the Taoist master see it, and he yelled at him impatiently, "If you want to go, you can leave, if you want to stay, I think of the things entrusted by your parents, and the friendship of living in the same house for so many years, so I beg you to go with me, if you feel that you can leave me, you can live here leisurely, I have no opinion, with you, sooner or later it will be a drag." ”
Thinking of the scholar's usual timidity and fear, and the usual bodhisattva's heart, he was a little upset and angry.
The Taoist chief was secretly angry with his son, and no longer tried to persuade him, he packed his luggage and prepared to leave this place in two days.
The scholar saw that the Taoist insisted on leaving, and his heart was full of contradictions, and he was worried about the safety of the Yu'er girl, so he took advantage of the Taoist to go down the mountain to find the Yu'er girl.
The two of them were on the mountain road, and they were all pleasantly surprised, especially the Yu'er girl, seeing the scholar regardless of the rugged road, the jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains were rampant, and they came to look for her in person.
Yu'er looked at the scholar who came to find her affectionately, and when she saw that the scholar was sweating profusely, she gently wiped the sweat for him with her sleeve with pity, but she didn't expect that Yu'er's hand accidentally touched the scholar's forehead, which made both of them suddenly red-hearted.
The scholar lowered his head and said shyly, "That, Miss Yu'er, my master is going to take me out of here, I'm afraid I will never come back, today I came to visit you, just to tell you, in this barren mountain, living alone, you must pay more attention to safety, if you feel lonely, simply, you will quietly follow me and Master to leave here." ”
"Leave here?" Yu'er asked in surprise, but soon she realized that this might be the Taoist master, who wanted to escape from here with the shark bead, if this was the case, she would never have a chance to get the shark pearl back in this life and avenge her demon fox mother, thinking of this, Yu'er pleaded with the scholar and said, "Yu'er's mother has passed away, there are many demons and monsters in this mountain, I am only afraid that after the son leaves, I will live alone in the mountain, and there will be no peace, don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone, don't leave me here, I'm afraid to live here, I want to leave here with my benefactor, is it okay?" ”
As soon as Yu'er finished her pleading words, a pair of big watery eyes immediately overflowed with tears, looking pitiful, which made the scholar feel pity, and he couldn't help but help but help up the Yu'er girl who was pleading with him and said, "Yu'er girl, I promise you to let you quietly follow me and the Daoist Master, but I don't know if the Daoist Master can detect you, if he notices, I'm afraid that you will be more auspicious." ”
Yu'er saw that the scholar agreed to take her with her, and she was already full of gratitude, she gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said happily with a smile on her face, "Childe, it is enough to have your words, even if there are swords and mountains and seas of fire on the way with you, I am not afraid, not to mention that the person is your master, I will take care of myself." ”
Yu'er said this happily, but in her heart, there were a thousand and ten thousand voices whispering, "That old thing of the Dao Chief, if you want to slip away under the pretext, I must find the opportunity to kill him personally." ”
After the scholar informed the Yu'er girl, he returned to the Taoist temple to tidy up his belongings with peace of mind, and when he tidied up, the Taoist returned to the temple, and saw that everything had been cleaned up, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and praised him, "You kid, let you tidy up your things, you just don't listen, today, if it weren't for your tidying up, I would have gone to the market alone to be chic and happy." ”
The scholar listened to the words of the Taoist chief, and was secretly taken aback, this Taoist master recently somehow, after getting these three shark beads, he became more and more selfish and cold, fortunately, he turned his mind and agreed to take him away from here, otherwise it is very likely to leave him alone, thinking of this, the scholar couldn't help but sigh secretly that the world is cold, the human affection is weak, and nothing lasts long, and he recalls the purple smoke girl who died for him unfortunately, and feels that the purple smoke girl's true feelings are precious, and it is difficult to live up to and forget.
On the second day, early in the morning, the Taoist chief and the scholar got up early in the morning, with the luggage, and left the broken Taoist temple where they had lived for many years.
The little demon fox Yu'er had been waiting quietly for a long time, and seeing the master and apprentice go down the mountain far away, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and followed closely.
Although the Dao Master has the ability to catch demons, Na Yu'er is alert and far away, so she has never been discovered by the Dao Master along the way.
On this day, the three of them stopped and walked until it was dark, and finally came to a populated town at the foot of the mountain.
The Taoist chief thought that he would make a fortune by relying on the shark beads in his hand in a few days, and he couldn't help but be proud, he touched the little broken silver taels that he had worked hard to accumulate in the bag for half a lifetime, and shouted to Xiao Erdao with a big grin, "The shopkeeper, come and blanch two pots of good wine for us, and a few good dishes." ”
The scholar looked at the Taoist Master in confusion and asked him, "Master, I don't know how many distances we have to go this way, we don't have much entanglement, let's save some flowers." ”
The scholar's words made the Taoist chief unhappy, so he scolded the Taoist scholar, "You can eat if you like, and I won't be reluctant if you don't eat, anyway, in the future, I won't worry about these tedious things." Master Dao Chang said something in his words, and after speaking, he secretly pinched the brocade box that was still hidden in his arms, and his heart was full of joy.
In his heart, with these three treasures, it is like guarding the endless mountains of gold and silver, in the future, he only needs to keep a life-saving pill for himself, and then find a good buyer for the other two, so that he will not have to worry about eating and drinking for a lifetime.
That night, Master Daoist ate some wine, ate some side dishes, held the baby in his arms, and fell asleep peacefully.
And the scholar was worried about the safety of the Yu'er girl who followed, and he couldn't help but be upset.
When the master fell asleep and snored, he excused himself and went downstairs to check on the whereabouts of Miss Yu'er.
Far away, he walked outside the inn and called to Miss Yu'er softly, and when Yu'er heard the voice, she flew lightly to meet him.
The scholar took the foodie he had begged from the store and gave it to Yu'er, so that she could be satisfied, and Yu'er was grateful.
For several days, they all spent like this, and Master Dao Chang and Miss Yu'er were all right.
After a few days, the three of them came to a bustling city, and there was not much silver taels left on the Taoist master, and if this continued, there was no guarantee of money for food and accommodation.
In order to raise money, the Taoist master once again started to hunt demons and drive away evil spirits, and specially did things for large families.
Coincidentally, there is a richest family in this city, with a lot of money, and there is only one son in the family, but this son is not interested in studying and doing business, and he interacts with fox friends and dogs all day long, hunting for fun everywhere.
Last week, the son and a group of friends went to the nearby mountains to enjoy the flowers, and when they returned home, they did not know whether they were suffering from the wind and cold, or they were evil, and suddenly became ill, the sick body was heavy, and the breath was dying all day long, and it seemed that in a few days, he would die.
Childe's family was anxious to seek medical advice everywhere, but there were many medical saints, and after reading it, it was difficult to see improvement.
In order to save the son's life, the rich family came up with a plan and posted a notice on the city gate, telling everyone: If there is a master or a scholar who can cure the child's illness, he is willing to give him a thousand taels of silver.
Master Dao Master was busy collecting information and looking for errands, and when he got the news without much effort, he was immediately overjoyed, because in his heart, he was sure that he could make this business.
also because he knows that no matter what kind of illness the son is, as long as the shark bead is in his hand, he has nothing to fear, if it is an ordinary disease and a goblin, it is better to deal with, at that time, saving this broad son, not only can save the shark pearl, but also a thousand taels of silver, isn't it beautiful.
Thinking of this, the Taoist master was in his chest, he came to the city gate alone, without doing any research, he tore off the notice, and some people who had already seen the list saw that someone tore off the list, so they hurriedly escorted him to the mansion to diagnose the son.
The Taoist master followed the servants and came to the prince's mansion, and before he entered the mansion, the Taoist master noticed a demonic aura in his face.
When he came to Childe's bedroom, the elder master immediately tiptoed to everyone and said, "I know the cause of Childe's illness, so you should step aside and wait for me to catch demons and exorcise evil spirits and cure Childe's illness." ”
When everyone heard the Taoist chief's words, they were shocked, but they thought that the son's life would not be long, so they had to do it.
Everyone dodged away, and the Dao Commander was alone, holding the spell and his own demon hunting gourd and demon slaying sword, opened the door, and walked in, as soon as the door was opened, the Dao Master frowned.
I saw that the windows in the room were closed, the curtains were tightly drawn, and the boy was lying on the bed in a drowsy state, unable to speak.
The Taoist chief was about to open the curtains, but the family members of the son who were guarding the door hurriedly reminded, "Master, no, since the child was sick, he has been extremely photophobic, and after he opens it, he will be manic." ”
Hearing what the childe's family said, Master Dao had no choice but to loosen the curtains, he scanned the room one by one with his two eyes, and sniffed in the room with his sensitive nose that had been catching demons for many years, and soon, he noticed where the clues were.
It turned out that in the place where the demonic energy was most dense, he found a strange thing, which was black and shrunk into a ball, and it was hiding on a plant in a flower pot by the window of the room.
The thing was very small, with shaggy legs, and the two thief's eyes were now cautiously staring at the man who had broken into the house.
The room was dimly lit, but even so, Master Dao Elder could easily recognize at a glance that the thing on the flower pot was nothing else, but a spider spirit that was about to cultivate into a human form.
Seeing the spider spirit, the Taoist master did not hurry to open the demon hunting gourd, and put the mouth directly facing the place where the spider spirit infested, chanting a word, only to see a golden light flashing, the demon hunting gourd method was wide open, and countless golden lights were shot at the spider spirit, although the spider spirit had not yet cultivated into a full human form, but she would never sit still, she instantly jumped from the plant on the windowsill, and then fled along the gap in the windowsill.
Where is the long master willing to let go of this evil animal, he quickly threw the demon slaying sword in his hand at the spider spirit, only to see that the demon slaying sword with a sharp edge, as fast as lightning, stabbed at the spider spirit, the spirit did not have time to dodge, and was cut off a few hairy calves, in order to intercede, the goblin rolled down to the windowsill, turned into a poor beautiful woman, holding the bleeding half of the arm and begging, " Master Daoist, please, let me go, I'm just a little woman with no malice, it's not me who harms my son, please let me go. ”
The elder master saw that there were too many goblins, so he didn't move his hands and continued to chant the mantra, and as the incantation passed, the goblin could no longer hold it, and returned to his original form when he landed, trembling on the ground.
With a pleading, the spider spirit screamed, and was accepted by the Dao Master's demon collecting gourd.
"You can come in, the goblins have been taken by me. The Taoist shouted out the door.
The scene that happened in front of them was clearly seen by the family of the son of the Kuo family, who was secretly peeping outside the door, and they immediately rushed in excitedly and thanked him, "Great, Master Dao, it turned out that it was a spider spirit who was causing trouble, now it's okay, the child is finally saved." ”
Master Dao said, "This spider spirit is not an ordinary spirit, but a bloodsucking spirit that has been practicing for hundreds of years. ”
Childe's family asked Dao Changdao in puzzlement, "Master, why is this goblin different from other goblins, and he is willing to give up until my son-in-law is tortured." However, I must also be glad that Childe has picked up a life because of this. ”
The Dao Chief put away the demon hunting gourd and the demon slashing sword, hung the two magic weapons on his waist again, and said with a big grin, "That spider spirit may like the unique taste of blood of your son, or maybe it is some kind of demon art she cultivates, and she urgently needs this blood type, she is reluctant to eat him in one bite, just to use him to help herself cultivate demon arts."
Now that the goblin has been captured by me, Childe's illness can be cured after only a few days of careful recuperation.
We have a word first, but I have come for the thousand taels of silver, and then you will wrap up the silver and reward me, so that I can leave here. After speaking, Master Dao Elder pulled over a square stool, sat down and waited for the silver to arrive.
Part of the child's family was busy calling out to the son, taking care of the child, and the master of the house replied with kind words, "Don't worry, benefactor, we will naturally do what we promised you, I have already arranged for someone to go to the treasury to get the silver."
Today, Master Daoist has saved my son-in-law, and we will hold a banquet in the house in the evening to entertain the benefactor, and it is not too late for the benefactor to leave. ”
Hearing what the son's family said, the Taoist couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, he was busy hurrying recently, eating and drinking were all improvised, if he could have a big meal in this mansion today, and then receive two silver taels and leave, wouldn't it be beautiful. Thinking of this, Master Dao Elder agreed to the matter.
It turned out that he was afraid that Gongzi's illness would recur, so he didn't dare to let the Taoist leave, secondly, he was even more afraid that this goblin would have accomplices, to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, and thirdly, he still had a big thing in mind, so he invited the Taoist Master to stay for the banquet.
