When the words fell, Xie Toad jumped off the roof, he pushed open a door and walked into the grass hut, looked at the wall inside and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, it's really right!"

"What's right?" Wang Qilin followed and looked inside, only then did he notice that there were actually many words written on the walls of the thatched hut where the snake cellar was built.

It's just that the writing is very shallow, and it's not the original characters, so he didn't notice it just now.

Xie Toad obviously knew these words, and he said to the wall:

"The body is full of snake venom, and the herb can eliminate it. When anger arises in the heart, the bhikshu must be subdued. They give up on each other's shores like serpents shedding their old skins. In the pool, there are lotus flowers, and the children and others dive into the fold. Bhikshus must renounce and love is exhausted. Sharing their shores together is like a serpent shedding its old skin......

He recited it for a while, and it was like a strange Buddhist poem.

After reading it, Xie Toad pulled the door and flew onto the roof, and he pulled the topic back to the Dongtian Cauldron and said: "Seventh Master, Xu Ye, Ah Huang, you don't know, that Dongtian blessed land raises people, demons, gods and ghosts, and Dongtian Cauldron also has similar skills, but it is not so powerful." ”

"It can raise people and ghosts!"

"According to the inference of the old way, this matter should be like this, the Chang family brothers don't know how to find out that there is a cave cauldron in Han second-hand, and the two of them are in trouble cultivating the "Bhikshu Snake Sutra", there should be something to deal with the two of them, so they want to use the cave cauldron to dodge. ”

"The two of them are now dead, ordinary people are ghosts after death, and people who practice the "Snake Sutra" are yin spirits after death, you guess that what he met in his dream was a giant python or a snake spirit, this guess is correct. ”

"The two brothers wanted to hide in the cave cauldron as snake spirits, so as to avoid the pursuit of Buddhist monks. ”

Wang Qilin asked blankly, "What is this Bhikshu Snake Sutra? How do you know that they have cultivated this Snake Sutra?"

Xie Toad slowly took out the rope in the chimney, and finally there were many pieces of black meat in the lower half of the rope.

When the wind blew, the smell of bacon reached their noses.

Xu's big eyes lit up: "Hey, Master Dao, your nose is smart enough, the bacon in this house is so tightly hidden or you still let you find out, what's the matter, this is a trophy for us to listen to the heavenly prison?"

Xie Toad glanced at him with a smile and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Master Xu, are you planning to eat this meat?"

Xu Da said: "We can't waste it, right? Let's listen to the rules of the Heavenly Prison, and we don't have to hand over the food we have harvested, just leave it for the brothers to share and eat." ”

The style of listening to the heavenly prison is close to banditry, and officials at all levels are greedy for money and materials, and the court doesn't care about it.

The reason is very simple, when listening to the heavenly prison errands, they all hang their heads on the crotch of their pants, and they have to fight with demons and monsters all the time, and they may die when they will die, and some of them will not die smoothly.

The reason why there is a steady stream of people willing to join the Heavenly Prison is to obtain better material enjoyment, if you want to be chivalrous and protect the people, then why do you need to join the Heavenly Prison?

Xie Toad laughed and said, "These meats are all human flesh, are you sure you want to keep them and eat them?"

Xu Da's face changed a little: "Isn't it? Daoye, this joke can't be made." ”

Xie Toad threw the rope and hung pieces of air-dried meat on the eaves.

He said lightly: "If you look closely, what do these things look like?"

Xu Da leaned up to take a look, and immediately gasped.

Wang Qilin also saw the true face of these things, pieces of air-dried meat have arms and legs, heads and bodies-

It's the corpse of a baby!

Xie Toad said: "The Bhikshu Snake Sutra is a practice of Tianzhu, which is cultivated to raise snakes and insects, and once cultivated, it can control the world's large and small snakes and insects, which is very powerful. ”

"However, this "Snake Sutra" is very difficult to cultivate, there are many cultivators in Tianzhu Country, but most of them can only get started. I heard that there are many people in the bazaar of Tianzhu who play the snake dance, and these people have practiced the "Snake Sutra". ”

"Originally, cultivating the Bhikshu Snake Sutra was not an evil thing, but cultivating the Snake Sutra in the downtown area was different, it must be a crooked and evil way. ”

"Why?" asked Xu Da.

Xie Toad said, "What kind of environment does the snake like, and what do you hate the most?"

Xu Da said: "Snakes like warm and moist burrows, and pythons especially like ......"

Wang Qilin stared at him, always feeling that what was coming out of this thing's mouth was not a good thing.

But Xie Toad nodded.

Xu Da said again: "What do snakes hate?

Xie Toad said: "I hate realgar, and I hate smoky fire roasting even more!"

"But look at how many stoves and chimneys there are in this busy city? How can snakes live in such a place? And although there is a snake cellar in this yard, there are also stoves and chimneys in the house next to it, and the Chang brothers must open the fire to cook on weekdays, so won't this affect the normal life of snakes?"

"So what to do? The easiest way is to suppress the smoky smell of the fire, so that the snake can't feel it, and then it will be able to live freely. ”

Wang Qilin had a vicious method in his mind, and he asked, "No, right?

Xie Toad said heavily: "They are so bold and reckless, they have already done this!"

Huang Junzi asked: "Can you still be good?" Don't sell it, just talk about things!"

Wang Qilin said: "I am willing to say, you may not be willing to listen, in the heavenly stems, non and decay belong to water, and among the earthly branches, the sub belongs to water. Therefore, on the five elements of yin and yang, the heavenly stem belongs to the water of yang, and the son of the earthly branch belongs to the water of yang, and the proportion is harmonious, and the child born on such a day is the life of Shangshui. ”

"There is a crooked evil way in the occult arts, that is, the baby who has the life of water is made into a baby spirit, and the life of such a baby spirit is still water, but it belongs to the water of yin, which can suppress the fireworks in the yang world......"

Hearing this, Huang Junzi's face was already gloomy: "Isn't it? Isn't it? Isn't it? These are all babies who are destined to be in the water?"

The answer is self-explanatory.

Xie Toad said: "In order to cultivate the Bhikshu Snake Sutra, the brothers of the Chang family have done such evil things that anger and resentment of the heavens, and there will definitely be retribution. But the two of them were very cautious, they didn't know how to find out in advance, and they happened to find the Dongtian Cauldron in Han's second-hand, so they wanted to pester Han'er to get his Dongtian Cauldron ......"

Wang Qilin shook his head when he heard this: "Master Dao, I don't think your inference is wrong, it's not that they found out that there is a cave cauldron in Han second, but that they may have the ability to find the cave cauldron after death." ”

Huang Junzi chick pecked rice: "That's right, although Han Er will bring this wooden box with him whenever he goes to other places on weekdays, but who doesn't have a suitcase? We don't know what Dongtian Cauldron is hidden in this box at all, and Han Er never mentions it, so you see, even we don't know about the existence of Dongtian Cauldron, how can these two bastard brothers know?"

Xie Toad stroked his beard and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the Seventh Master's heart is as careful as a hair, it should be exactly like this." ”

Xu shouted: "But uncle, I don't understand, the purpose of cultivating this 'Bhikshu Snake Sutra' is to be able to control snakes and insects? What the hell is this? Do they want to be ducks? Otherwise, why are they so obsessed with controlling snakes?"

Xie Toad said: "Master Xu, the beetle snake is also a snake, and before the dragon became a dragon, it was also a snake!"

"Even dragons are snakes!"

Xu Da's eyes widened and asked, "Could it be that after cultivating this Bhikshu Snake Sutra, you can still control the dragon?"

Xie Toad said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"

His face became solemn, his eyes looked into the distance, and his old face showed a trance-like expression.

It seems that he thinks of something from the past that disturbs him.

The other three people in the yard didn't speak, only Eight Meow didn't know where to drag out a snake, the unlucky snake was originally quite arrogant, but after spitting out the snake letter at Eight Meow, he was honest, and once his body was twisted and he pretended to be dead.

The door opened, and another snake appeared.

This snake is beautiful and blood-red all over.

It was the thickness of Wang Qilin's wrists, its body was a foot long, and the strange thing was that it had several erect scales on its head, which could move, like sharp horns when they gathered together, and like a crown when they were unfolded.

There is also a fleshy crown in the middle of the crown.

After the snake appeared, it raised its head and swallowed its tongue at Eight Meow, and its two black eyes stared at Eight Meow, obviously putting on a posture of being ready to attack.

But the sound it made when it opened its mouth was, "Coo, coo." ”

Seeing this, Eight Meow became interested, and slapped the snake it was playing with, and the snake pretended to be dead for a while and crawled for a while, pretending to be dead for a while, and drilled into the snake cellar in fear and against time.

Wang Qilin asked in surprise: "Could this be the legendary cockscomb snake? This Chang family brother is so powerful that he can actually raise a cockscomb snake?"

He has always thought that the cockscomb snake only exists in folklore, according to legend, this snake has a blood-red body, a meat crown similar to a rooster, a body length of more than a foot, a few inches in circumference, different body colors, can stand upright.

The snake is extremely venomous, and its attack methods are diverse, with highly venomous teeth, can spray venom, and can even release poisonous mist.

Wu Wu told him this kind of rumor, saying that there are many miasma in many mountains in the southern wilderness, and this miasma is formed by the mist in the mountains mixed with the poisonous mist spit out by the cockscomb snake.

It's hard to say whether the snake that appears now is a cockscomb snake, after all, Wang Qilin has never heard of a cockscomb snake with scales like a crown.

But this snake must be powerful.

Powerful creatures always have something in common, and this commonality is the courage to challenge the strong.

Eight Meow is undoubtedly very powerful, and when it sees this snake, it immediately pulls out the fist and meows meow.

According to Wang Qilin's understanding, it is showing taunting skills and preparing for battle.

The snake rises upside and winds its way forward, its head is not a triangle like a poisonous snake, but a round and quite simple and pleasing one.

But just look at its colorful scales and know that this image is deceptive, this is a very poisonous snake.

Eight Meow didn't underestimate it, and it also kept an eye on the poisonous snake, ready to concentrate on a big battle with it.

The Great War began ahead of schedule.

The wind picked up and a leaf fell.

Jiuliu suddenly rushed towards the poisonous snake, and opened his mouth very fiercely to bite the snake's neck!

The speed of the poisonous snake's surprise attack was faster than ordinary people expected, and Wang Qilin's cultivation was so advanced now, but he only saw a flash of colorful color, and then the poisonous snake entangled Jiuliu.

At the same time, the black shadow flashed, and Eight Meow rushed up, pressing the snake's head with its two front paws to prevent it from biting Ninety-Six.

The scene was suddenly embarrassing.

Nine-six was entangled in a snake, so it couldn't move.

The snake's body was wrapped around Nine-Six, and its head was pinned by Eight Meows, so it couldn't move.

The strength of the black cat is not a strong point, and the eight meows only pressed the snake's head with all his strength, and once it can't control the snake's head, the poisonous snake will turn around and bite Jiuliu, so it can't move.

Luckily, there were four more people on their side.

Wang Qilin pinched the sword trick and was about to cut off the head of the snake, Xie Toad shouted: "Seventh Master, don't!"

"What's wrong?" Wang Qilin asked.

Xie Toad said: "This is not a cockscomb snake, this is a different species in a snake, there may only be such a different species in the entire Kyushu, don't kill it, such a snake may already have spirituality, killing it is a sin." ”

The big snake was pressed to the ground by the eight meows, opened its mouth and made a 'coo' sound, rolling its eyelids as if it was looking at Wang Qilin vigorously.

Wang Qilin summoned Shihe under his skin, and then asked the big snake, "What are you looking at?"

The serpent squeezed its eyes and barked at him more violently, but its voice was no longer sharp, but much softer.

Ten of the ability to make miraculous feats.

Xie Toad groaned and said: "This snake is obviously the king snake here, when we came, we heard from the eldest sister-in-law that since the death of the Chang family brother, there have been snakes around this house, but there has been no harm to anyone." ”

"Seventh Master, you just saw that there are still many snakes alive in the snake cellar here, and it is obvious that these snakes have woken up from hibernation, but they have not run around or hurt people, this is definitely because something is in charge of them. ”

Wang Qilin pointed at the big snake and said, "Is it in charge of the snakes?"

Xie Toad said: "Immeasurable Tianzun, it should be its credit, and after we entered this courtyard just now, no snake came out to attack us, or after Eight Meow caught a snake, this big snake came out to fight with Eight Meow." ”

Huang Junzi said: "This snake is actually quite righteous, and my son admires it very much." ”

The snake was indeed psychic, and when it heard their words, it gave up resistance and let go of the body wrapped around Jiuliu's body.

Seeing this, Wang Qilin guessed that this snake should have lived for many years, so it could cultivate spirituality.

And once the snakes and insects are cultivated, they are a bit fairy, as long as they don't do evil, they can't be killed, because God is willing to let them go, how can people embarrass them?

In the past, there was a monk named Fahai who was sad about a spider that the Buddha had let go, but the unlucky monk went mad.

There was also a monk named Fahai who was sad about a little white snake, and later the little white snake became a big white snake and took a family of three to do it with him.

Wang Qilin went up and picked up Eight Meows and asked the big snake: "Is it okay for us to not have well water and river water?"

The big snake man stood up and looked at him, and the eight meows opened their claws in Wang Qilin's hands to make a posture of opening their teeth and dancing claws: Don't get close, you dare to get close to the meow and scratch you.

Wang Qilin stretched out his hand as if touching the snake's head, but after touching its body, he only felt that the tentacles were cold and the scales were rough, and it was not as comfortable as a dog or cat, so he gave up his plan to rub the snake's head.

He changed to Xu Da and said: "Master Xu, your hands touch snakes every day, you must have experience in this kind of thing, you come and pet it." ”

Xu Da took a step back and asked vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

I always feel like nothing good.

Wang Qilin said: "Express our goodwill to it." ”

Xu Da hesitated for a moment and said: "Uncle is not cowardly, but the uncle touches pythons on weekdays, such poisonous snakes, uncle is not very experienced, I think you should ask another master." ”

Xie Toad swept down in the air, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of the strange snake, and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the old Tao understands your intentions, you want us to take out all the snakes trapped here, right?"

The strange snake swallowed its tongue and made a distinctive sound: "Coo, coo." ”

Xie Toad said: "Don't worry, the old Taoist priest will send all the snakes to the wild, where are you going? Why don't you follow the old way? The old Taoist will take you to cultivate." ”

The serpent swam around him twice, and burrowed into his robes along his legs.

Huang Junzi subconsciously shouted: "Where is this strange thing going? Dao Ye, be careful of your crotch!"

Xie Toad said angrily: "It's just hidden in the old Taoist robe, don't make a fuss, this snake is a different species among snakes, understands human language, understands human nature, has wisdom, and is a creature created by heaven and earth like the Xuanmao Tiangu, the three of you really have eyes and don't know gold and jade, and you don't even know how to take it away!"

Wang Qilin shook his head and said, "I have eight meows, and eight meows don't deal with snakes." ”

Xu Da nodded approvingly: "Yes, men don't have cats, and women don't have dogs." ”

Wang Qilin asked him, "Then why don't you raise this snake?"

Xu Da sighed and said: "One mountain can't tolerate two tigers, Seventh Master, how can a man raise two big snakes?"

Huang Junzi looked at him inexplicably, and then asked Wang Qilin, "Why is Ah Da talking today?"

Wang Qilin said: "Don't worry about him, you have to be a good young man who is honest and pure, so listen less to Xu Ye's words and communicate less with him." ”

Speaking of this, he sighed, how could he not have been such a good young man who was as simple as a piece of beautiful jade? As a result, God let him know Xu Da's material.

Close to Zhu Zhechi, close to Xu Da, the ancients did not deceive me!

Xie Toad said: "The matter is probably clear, let's find a way to find out the snake spirits that are entangled with Han Er, and then get rid of them." As for the snakes here, well, we'll have to find a way to get them out. ”

Wang Qilin said, "Why don't they leave on their own? Your crown snake has wisdom, it can wait until night to run away quietly with the snakes." ”

There are countless ditches in Chang'an City, and there are many sewers in Chang'an City, as long as the snakes enter the waterways, it is not easy to escape from the city?

Xie Toad said: "There is the Bhikshu Snake Sutra in these houses, and the snake is afraid of the Snake Sutra like a person is afraid of ghosts. ”

He flicked his sleeves and flew open the wooden door of the wing, jumped in and flicked his sleeves again, and the handwriting on the wall fell with a clatter.

Huang Junzi was stunned for a moment: "Ah Qi, is the toad so powerful?"

Wang Qilin pointed at him and said, "Old man, the number one master in the world!"

Huang Junzi suddenly scoffed.

It was still quite difficult to transport so many snakes out of Chang'an City, so Wang Qilin had to contact Jingzhao Mansion and ask them to find a caravan and drive out of the city, so that a cart full of snakes could be transported out.

A group of snakes were entangled together, this scene was somewhat shocking, and Wang Qilin looked at it and was afraid.

The most pitiful of them were the soldiers who defended the city, and they saw that the cattle cart was tightly covered, and according to the rules, they had to drive to inspect it, so when the car door was opened, the tiger and tiger general suddenly withered.

A black face suddenly turned into a small white face.

Those who should move do not go west, and finally the water snake takes the waterway, and the dry snake drills the dry road, and the walk and scatter are scattered, leaving only the crown snake to follow Xie Toad.

Xu Da pondered for a while, and finally talked to Xie Toad, accepted the crown snake, and decided to adopt the snake himself.

The big snake was very huge, and Xu Da let it coil around his waist, so that his waist and abdomen looked more bloated.

When they returned to the market, the group immediately noticed that Xu Da had a bloated waist and asked him what was wrong.

Xu Da sighed and said, "Uncle has a big snake, and there is no place to put it, so I have to wrap it around my waist." ”

The group of men suddenly laughed: "Xu Ye is really good at bragging." ”

Xu Da was more serious, pointed to the man who was speaking, and said, "Come here, uncle will show you." ”

The man's face changed, and he waved his hand again and again: "I don't look at it, Xu Ye let me go, I don't look at this thing." ”

The other men muttered, 'Xu Ye is bold enough', 'It turns out that Xu Ye likes masters', and then looked at Wang Qilin with their eyes.

Wang Qilin was annoyed, so he grabbed a person and grabbed him by the neck for him to see.

Xu Da opened his shirt, and the man screamed in fright: "What a big snake!"
