7. The West Mountain Rat Monster
(a)
Because Qingyin insisted on following Qing Huan to go to the Emperor Mountain to steal the Dingguang Orb, Qing Huan had to coax her to find a cleaner inn in the county town near the left of the Emperor Mountain to settle her father and queen mother in order to live in the emperor's mountain, because although the father had swallowed the blazing cloud poison bead in Qingyin's body, if he wanted to wake up completely, he was afraid that it would take three months, if Qingyin insisted on following him to the emperor mountain, in case the father and mother had a mistake in the inn, what should it be?
After successfully persuading Qingyin to stay in the inn to take care of his father and mother, Qing Huan immediately quietly sneaked into the Emperor Mountain by himself, although a palace of Emperor Wa on the Emperor Mountain is indeed solemn and ancient, but Qing Huan turned around and went straight to the Purple Emperor Peak on the Emperor Mountain, because he had carefully explored before, the Purple Emperor Peak was the place where the Xianhua faction's Hidden Scripture Pavilion was located, and since this Dingguang Pearl, it was naturally carefully collected in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion by General Teng Snake, and it would never be carried with him from time to time, because there were thousands of people in the Three Realms who coveted this Dingguang Pearl, General Teng Snake is naturally not stupid enough to sleep on the couch with this fixed light pearl all day long, adding immeasurable danger and trouble to himself.
Because the blazing cloud poison bead in his body has been lost, Qing Huan expected that General Teng Snake may not be able to be alert to the demonic energy in his body in time in the Wa Emperor Palace, but if he stays on the Emperor Mountain for a long time, it will be different, so he didn't dare to delay time at all, and took advantage of the dead of night to rush to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion on the Purple Emperor Peak。
But in a moment, Qing Huan still stepped on the severed limbs and remnants of these flesh and blood in the formation with a calm face, jumped over the evil magic array, and after casting a spell to break through the door of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, he really saw a brilliant nine-colored orb on an old pineapple table in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, knowing that this nine-colored orb must be a Dingguang Pearl, and then cast a spell to collect the Dingguang Bead on himself, turned around and hurriedly fled from the Hidden Scripture Pavilion.
When he successfully escaped from the Emperor Mountain, the sky was already slightly bright, Qingyin had not been waiting for his brother in the inn, and in the middle of the night, he returned to the inn guest room and spent silver to buy a carriage to transport the father and the queen mother to the Emperor Mountain, and the brother and sister performed the tricky demon method of the Jade Butterfly clan at the foot of the Emperor Mountain to arouse the divine power of the Dingguang Pearl, but according to the guidance of the Dingguang Pearl, they drove the carriage all the way to the city of Yuzhou, and found a Yueyun Inn with a free room in the city, and properly placed the father and queen mother, and then the brother and sister hurriedly rushed to the west of Yuzhou City to find it according to the guidance of the divine power of the Dingguang Pearl。

"Hey, I said that this priest and priest, although we did not shed red dust for many years when we were in the pure heavens, but now we are not afraid of dirty even a piece of osmanthus cake to dirty our demon body,"
In front of a small streetside shop in Yuzhou City under the guise of a small wine, Qingyin's two slender calves swayed on the branch of a leafy willow tree outside the store, and looked at the stupid brother under the big willow tree with a look of anger and anger, "Okay, you can skip the osmanthus cake, but you should always go to the store to pay the silver," Qingyin staggered in his hand and carried a bag of osmanthus pastry, and shook his head very proudly and said provocatively to his brother Qinghuan, " The rules of the world, if anything is taken out of the store, it must not be returned again, of course, this is a last resort, in order to prevent being poisoned, so, what about the silver," she looked at his face seriously, "This time there is a lot of demonic energy emanating from this Yuzhou City, let's not say that it will be delayed here for three or two months, it stands to reason that you should have at least thirty or fifty taels of silver for tea and rice now," she said.
"That's right, when I didn't get involved in the red dust in the pure sky for many years, I always forgot to carry the silver taels with me when I went out, but I also knew that since you love this bag of dim sum in the mortal world, the coral pendant hanging on the spike of my brother's water purification sword can be given to the store to settle the bill," he said.
"Ah, forget it, the coral pendant on your sword spike is enough to buy a dim sum shop on this street," Qingyin Although her cheeks were rosy and her eyes were round, she saw that her unlucky brother really didn't have any money to ask for, so she had to take out a delicate and small brocade bag from the small sachet she was carrying, and gently took out a small gold bead from the bag, stretched out her fingers and flicked it into the store's small money box to pay the bill.

After jumping down from the leafy willow branch outside the dim sum shop, seeing that it was close to noon, Qingyin felt that she should go to the streetside tea shed on the opposite street as soon as possible to drink two bowls of sour plum soup, because she didn't expect that the osmanthus cake in Yuzhou City was actually steamed with mung bean noodles, and she felt thirsty after eating, Qinghuan naturally didn't care what the sour plum soup in Qingyin's mouth looked like, but as long as Qingyin liked it, he would never get any rejection here.
Because it was originally spent on his own money, Qingyin was very picky about asking the young man for two bowls of cold sour plum soup with rock sugar and chrysanthemums in a small tea shed under a towering plane tree with flourishing foliage on the street, and it must be taken off the ice cubes immediatelyIn addition to the cold sour plum soup, cold cheese, fresh fruit shaved ice, egg yolk milk skin, and cold eight treasure soup have also become the most prosperous money-making signboard in this small tea shed.
Seeing this, Qingyin couldn't help but be slightly curious, and even before he could finish the half bowl of sour plum soup left on the table, he hurriedly pulled up Qinghuan and jumped to the small tea shed next to him, while casually asking the boss to have a bowl of cold mung bean soup, and at the same time curiously asked the boss if there was the same fresh fruit shaved ice and cold cheese as in the tea shed next to him.
"Two guest officers, I'm really sorry, the villain only sells mung bean soup here, although there are indeed a lot of guests in the tea shed next to it, but if the two guest officers like shaved ice cheese, they can only bother to wait in line," the boss had already respectfully brought two bowls of mung bean soup to the table as he spoke, Qingyin was very curious and stretched out her little tongue to lick it gently, "Ah, I didn't even add rock sugar and osmanthus sauce, boss, no wonder your business here is so cold," she said.
"What the guest officer said is that the villain here does not add any rock sugar osmanthus to the mung bean soup, just because there are often people in Yuzhou City who eat sweets and rush up with blood and blood, and their lives are in danger, the villain has not added any rock sugar osmanthus to the mung bean soup in order to take care of these guests, otherwise if it is drunk by those who can't easily eat and drink sweet soup because of hunger and thirst, wouldn't it be a waste of life," the boss was helpless," Although the villain's tea shed business is always very deserted, at least it can be kept in the hands of the villain, and a person's life is never easily injured," he said.
"Hey, you idiot, you only need one bucket of ten buckets of mung bean soup without rock sugar osmanthus in it," Qingyin really didn't know what to say about this stupid boss, "can't you have rock sugar in your mung bean soup, you will be able to stop those damn ghosts," she asked, "You don't have a single person here who comes to drink mung bean soup, and those mortals who fall on the street and kick their legs as soon as they eat sweet soup are still going to die in any of the tea sheds on this street?" she asked.
"What the girl said is reasonable," the tea shack owner couldn't help but have a fleeting smile between his eyebrows after hearing this, "but please forgive the girl, because the villain has a bad memory, if the spoon of the mung bean soup is under the wrong bucket, it really should be a crime that deserves death," he said.
"But even if you don't make the wrong spoon, you still deserve death," Qing Huan, who had already seen through the true appearance of the tea shed owner on the sidelines, had already coldly pressed the water purification sword in his hand against the neck of the tea shed owner with a kind face at the speed of thunder, "Use this method to find the sugar man you want in Yuzhou City, if you don't kill you with a sword today, I don't know how many ordinary people in Yuzhou City will be killed by you," he said.
The tea boss knew that his identity was revealed, and he suddenly raised his hand to release a fishy mist, wanting to take the opportunity to hide his body, but he had already been trapped by Qing Huan's spell and could not escape, Qingyin thought that he was a member of the ancient demon clan, and it was really a great matter of righteousness to subdue these miscellaneous little monsters in the mortal world for the first timeWith a scream of "squeak", a round nose had already fallen under his claws.
"Dare to love is a big mouse," Qingyin waved a small green jade dagger with his fingertips with one hand, and lifted up a sharp mouse ear of the tea boss who had been beaten back to his original form with the other, and wanted to cut off one of his ears as punishment.
"No, let's do it slowly," Qing Huan saw this, and immediately reached out to gently block the little green jade dagger on Qingyin's fingertips, "It seems that this fat mouse is just a miscellaneous little soldier, let me carefully interrogate his origin first," he said.
"The two true immortals spare their lives, the villain is just a thousand-year-old rat spirit who works under the Xishan Rat King, this time he is just on the order of the king, and he came to Yuzhou City to find seventy-seven forty-nine sugar people to treat the king's daughter," the tea boss saw that he had no hope of escaping, so he had to reveal his identity and origin before Qinghuan and Qingyin in order to survive......
(iv)
It turns out that at the foot of the West Mountain, thirty miles northwest of Yuzhou City, there was originally a very ghostly mass grave post, in a mouse hole in the mass grave gang, there have been thousands of gray-haired mice living in the Xishan Rat King's family and his subordinates for many years, this group of rat demons live on weekdays by sucking the blood of pedestrians passing by the mass grave at night, because the mass grave is originally a ghostly place, so the monks and Taoist people in Yuzhou City mistakenly think that these people are killed by the evil ghosts in the grave, for thousands of years, I don't know how many runes and Buddha seals have been pasted on those deserted graves, but they never thought that it was a group of rats in the mouse hole under the mass grave。
Later, the rat king and the queen gave birth to a daughter in the rat hole, and she was also fed with mortal essence blood on weekdays, but she had no choice but to have a serious illness when the daughter was three years old, and often fainted in the rat hole for no reason for a few days, and several times almost died in a coma, and then the nurse inadvertently happened to give her a bowl of essence blood taken from the mortals passing by the mass grave when the king's daughter began to faint, but she did not expect the king's daughter to continue to faint because of this, and the nurse had tasted a different fishy sweet taste because she tasted the essence blood in the bowl, that is, began to become a mortal old woman who came to the pharmacy in Yuzhou City to inquire about how mortals with the sweet smell of blood should judge.
The guy in the pharmacy told the nurse that people with sweet blood are called sugar people in Yuzhou City, and sugar people can't touch sugar on weekdays, otherwise they will have to worry about their lives, so just look at which people don't dare to eat sweet fruit snacks on weekdays, and don't dare to add rock sugar to mung bean soup.
After the nurse went back to report the matter to the rat king, the rat king immediately sent people to secretly look for the sugar people in Yuzhou City under the cover of selling unsweetened mung bean soup, and took the essence blood back to the king's daughter.
