The sadness of parting slowly faded away with the gradual distancing of footsteps. When Ah Gou walked out of the "Red Dust Canyon" and couldn't see the "Taoyuan Village", he decided to put aside his longing for home for the time being.

Next, he was going to adjust his mood and set off west.

The black-robed Taoist just told Ah Dog that Kunlun Mountain was in the west, and as for how to get to Kunlun Mountain, the black-robed Taoist did not say. Ah Gou thought to himself, since it was to the west, he would just walk when he encountered the road to the west.

Out of the "Red Dust Canyon", there is a three-way intersection in front. Ah Gou looked up at the sun, at noon, the sun should be due south, due west should be the right road.

After identifying the direction, Ah Gou put down the bamboo basket and took Bai Ling out. He walked for most of the day, and was a little hungry, so Ah Gou took out two steamed buns, ate one for himself, and gave one to Bai Ling.

Bai Ling sniffed the steamed bun and didn't eat it. Ah Gou remembered this time that Bai Ling was a fox, and it was going to eat meat. Ah Gou put away the steamed buns, smiled apologetically at Bai Ling, and said, "Bai Ling, I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't eat steamed buns." Hold on a little longer, wait a while, and then we'll go to the bazaar, and I'll buy you meat to eat." ”

"Squeak!!" Bai Ling nodded at Ah Gou.

Ah Gou ate a steamed bun, rested for a while, and regained his strength. He put Bai Ling into the bamboo basket again, picked up the bamboo basket, and got back on the road.

After walking for a long time, I saw that the sun was about to set, and Ah Gou had not seen the village yet. Ah Gou released Bai Ling, Bai Ling stayed in the bamboo basket for a day, and after he was released, he ran away.

"Bai Ling, don't run far. The dog shouted loudly.

Ah Gou took out a blanket from the bamboo basket and found a flat place, and tonight, he planned to spend the night here. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Ah Gou found some branches and lit a bonfire.

Not long after, Bai Ling returned.

"Bai Ling, where have you been?" asked Ah Gou.

Bai Ling drooped his head and lay at Ah Gou's feet, ignoring Ah Gou. Ah Gou touched Bai Ling's little head, but Bai Ling didn't move.

"Bai Ling, what's wrong with you, are you hungry?" asked Ah Gou.

Bai Ling still ignored him.

"Bai Ling must be hungry. Ah Gou thought to himself, "Bai Ling hasn't eaten food for more than a day, and I thought of going to the market and selling meat to it." Now in the barren mountains and mountains, I can only catch a small animal for Bai Ling. ”

After making up his mind, Ah Gou put Bai Ling in the bamboo basket. He grabbed a dagger and went to a nearby hillside. The mountain is not very high, but it is steep. With the help of the sparse moonlight, Ah Dog used his hands and feet to climb for half an hour, but he only went up halfway up the mountain.

"Giggle!!"

Mougin, Ah Dog faintly heard a bark, the bark was very weak, as if it came from the ground. Just as the dog was wondering where the bark came from, there was another "clucking" sound.

This time, Dog was able to discern the direction of the bark, and Dog carefully walked in the direction of the sound. After walking for about three or five feet, Ah Gou saw a hole. The "gurgling" sound came from inside the cave.

Ah Gou took out the fire fold from his body, lit a wooden stick to send oil, and the fire illuminated, Ah Gou saw a piece of yellow paper pasted at the entrance of the cave, but he didn't care. The sound came from the cave again, and this time Ah Gou heard it clearly, and he slowly entered the cave with a wooden stick in one hand.

The cave wasn't deep, but it was damp and the air smelled moldy. Ah Gou relied on his courage and walked half a pillar of incense, and then he came to the end. He raised the flaming stick in front of him, and by the light of the fire, the dog saw a pheasant lying in the corner. Presumably, the "clucking" sound was made by this pheasant.

The dog walked over and picked up the pheasant.

The weight of the pheasant was beyond the dog's imagination, and the dog almost didn't move one hand. Looking at the fat pheasant in his hand, Ah Gou was surprised. Although his father can't hunt. But Mu Sheng is an excellent hunter, and Ah Dog often goes to Mu Sheng's house to play with Mu Rong, and he has often seen the prey brought back by Mu Sheng, and the most is pheasant. Ah Gou remembered that Mu Sheng had beaten the largest pheasant once, and it only weighed more than ten catties. In Mu Sheng's words, such a heavy pheasant is very rare.

Now, Ah Gou weighed the pheasant in his hand, no less than thirty catties. Ah Gou thought to himself, if he told Mu Sheng that he had caught a pheasant with thirty catties, Mu Sheng would not believe it.

When he came out of the cave, Ah Gou felt tired. He placed the pheasant on a rock outside the cave and sat down beside him, gasping for air.

Without waiting for the dog to rest, the pheasant had already recovered his strength and stood up first. Seeing the pheasant on the stone, Ah Dog was stunned again. When the pheasant's body stood up, it was more than a meter tall.

The dog is afraid that the pheasant will run away, and he will work in vain. He reached out to grab the pheasant's leg, but the pheasant lifted his leg and kicked the dog in the head with one paw.

Ah Dog fell on all fours. By the time he got up, the pheasant was already standing in front of him. The pheasant at this moment is like a fierce warrior in the eyes of A Dog. The dog became the prey in his mouth.

"Giggle!!"

The pheasant screamed loudly, and at the same time, it spread its wings and flapped it at the dog, who only felt that there was a hurricane blowing, and his body was floating in the hurricane, and by the time he landed, he had been blown more than a foot away.

A dog thinks that he can't fight this pheasant. In the current situation, it is important to flee for your life. After making up his mind, Ah Dog got up from the ground, turned around and ran.

After running a short distance, he was stopped by a pheasant.

The pheasant's comb stands up, its neck sticks forward, its eyes are red, and its throat makes a "clucking" sound. Ah Gou thought to himself, this time he was finished, and the pheasant must have eaten him.

Just as the dog and the pheasant were confronting, there was a sudden roar. The pheasant heard the whistling and turned to run. A burst of white light in front of the dog's eyes hit the pheasant. The pheasant did not show weakness either, jumping up and using its wings to resist the white light.

The white light flashed, and a Taoist priest appeared in front of Ah Gou's eyes. The Taoist priest was holding a long sword, and the tip of the sword was pointed at the pheasant. The pheasant stretched out his head, his eyes showed a fierce light, and confronted the Taoist priest.

"Going!!"

The Taoist priest swung his long sword, and a white light struck the pheasant. The pheasant flaps its wings to block out the white light. One person and one chicken, fighting together. Gradually, the white light emitted from the Taoist sword became weaker and weaker, and the pheasant found a flaw and flew away.

The Taoist priest put away his long sword, turned around and glared at Ah Gou, and said, "It's all you, it's all good things for me, damn it." ”

The Taoist priest showed up to beat away the pheasant and save the dog, and for the Taoist, the dog was grateful. Ah Gou wanted to say thank you. Before Ah Gou could speak, the Taoist priest reprimanded Ah Gou, and Ah Gou felt very uncomfortable. He didn't say anything about thanks.

"You can't speak. Ah Gou said-for-tat, "We just met, why did I spoil your good deeds?"

The Taoist priest glanced at Ah Gou and said coldly: "Ordinary people, you won't understand what you say. ’

After speaking, the Taoist priest turned to leave. Ah Gou didn't admit it, and he was reprimanded for no reason, which aroused the strong anger in his heart.

Ah Gou took a step forward, stopped the Taoist priest, and said, "You explain to me." How did I ruin your good deeds?"

The Taoist priest looked Ah Dog up and down with his eyes, and when the Taoist priest looked at Ah Dog, Ah Gou also looked at the Taoist priest with his eyes. Ah Gou felt that the Taoist priest in front of him was not very old, and he should be similar to himself. Dressed in a Taoist robe, his hair was coiled, and he carried a long sword on his back and a belt bag tied around his waist. Straw sandals, white cloth socks, and trouser legs, clean and neat.

"Get out of the way. The Taoist priest said coldly, "When I went down the mountain, the master said that he wouldn't let me talk to you fools." ”

"You cleaned my mouth. He raised his hand, pointed to the Taoist priest's face, and said, "Why do you call me a fool for no reason? Today, if you don't give me a reason, I will never let you go." ”

"You can't even see the monster, aren't you stupid?" said the Taoist priest with disdainful look at the dog.

"Youkai?" Ah Dog scratched his head with his hand and asked, "Are you saying that pheasant just now is a monster?"

"That's not a pheasant, it's a chicken demon. The Taoist priest said, "I chased me all the way from Moshan to here, and finally caught the opportunity, and I sealed the chicken demon in the cave with a talisman." After seventy-seven forty-nine days, the chicken demon will be trapped by me to death. Today, it's just forty-eight days, but you have led the way with that chicken demon. All my efforts have come to naught. Tell me, I said you're a fool, am I wrong about you?"

"It turned out to be a chicken demon. Ah Gou thought to himself, "No wonder you've grown so big." Immediately, Ah Gou thought that his behavior was indeed reckless. However, then again, even if he behaved recklessly and let go of the chicken demon, he didn't do it unintentionally.

"Isn't it just a chicken demon? I'll just catch it for you. Ah Dog said.

"Cut!" the Taoist priest touched his nose with his hand and said sarcastically, "You are really not afraid of the wind pulling out your teeth and scraping them off." I see you, you may not be able to beat a mouse. You still want to catch the chicken demon?"

Immediately, the Taoist priest waved his hand and said, "You, it's better to stay there and stay there." ”

"You look down on me, okay, I'm going to have to catch the chicken demon for you. Ah Gou straightened his chest and said, "When I catch the chicken demon, I think you have anything else to say?"

"Ignorance. The Taoist priest shook his head and turned to leave.

Ah Gou quietly followed behind the Taoist priest, and he knew that the Taoist priest must be looking for a chicken demon. If he wants to catch the chicken demon, he can only follow the Taoist priest.
