A dangerous place cannot be left for a moment unless there is a special reason. This is the essential survival rule for almost every little demon.

Leaving the village where White Frost had lived, the group began to walk north. Except for the necessary breaks, almost non-stop. Bypass all human settlements and take as small paths as you can.

According to the monkey's initial idea, as long as they are far enough away to go where the news can't reach, they can go back to their old business.

However, plans don't always keep up with changes.

As I said at the beginning, Xiniu Hezhou is a place where there is no unified human kingdom, and there are many small countries of all kinds. Such a place often means that all kinds of information are extremely closed. When they set out, they didn't even have a map, and they didn't know where they would go all the way north.

Of course, the monkeys didn't care. He has been wandering for more than ten years, because he has nowhere to go, so he doesn't care where he goes.

So, on the tenth day after leaving the village, unprepared, a desert lay in front of them. Boundless desert.

Well, now, let alone avoiding it, I'm afraid it's hard to meet humans.

Looking at the desert, everyone was at a loss.

"What should I do?"

"It's just a desert, it's not a desert. As long as you can find water, you can't die!"

Gritting his teeth, he decided to cross the desert.

After a short day of preparation, they set off.

On the third day of entering the desert, Blacktail was bitten by a poisonous snake. Due to the timely treatment, there is no life-threatening situation.

On the fifth day of entering the desert, they encountered wolves, and a group of people squatted on a dead tree for two days, and were exhausted by the sun for two days. In the end, the wolves left, and the people in the team were more or less injured, but fortunately, there were no casualties in the real sense, which can be regarded as a great luck in misfortune.

In the face of all this, White Frost was terrified, but the risks in the wild were obviously accustomed to these outlaw monsters, and there were still jokes along the way.

However, on the tenth day of entering the desert, they encountered wind and sand. You know, the wind and sand in the desert are not much worse than those in the desert, and they hid in the caves they managed to find for a day and a night, and they couldn't do anything. When I came out, the dry food I was carrying was completely exhausted.

When he heard the news, he cried so much that he almost fainted.

There is also food in the desert, all kinds of wild grasses and wild vegetables, can be food. No, hay can be eaten. It's a pity that much more is consumed than what is found.

The depletion of the food they carried meant that hunger would be their worst enemy in the days to come.

By the early morning of the fifteenth day of entering the desert, the group was so dizzy with hunger that they had almost lost the strength to walk.

"No matter how much you endure, no matter how much you endure, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that this place is really boundless. If you think like this, we are all going so hard, and the Taoist priest must not have the ability to catch up! In this way, won't we be safe?"

However, at this moment, who cares about Taoist priests?

The fat intestines are losing weight day by day, and they cry out that they are hungry day and night. The bull head was silent and walked forward. Probably to conserve his strength, Da Hong is not as nagging as he used to be.

The most non-existent black tail always curled up in a corner and stood still, and then suddenly appeared again at dawn.

The noisy team became silent, but it was white frost. Strangely, hoarfrost is hungry like everyone else, but if it doesn't eat, there seems to be no problem, neither physically nor mentally, there is no attenuation.

This surprised the monkey.

In the end, the only two voices left in the whole group were the monkey and the hoarfrost, and the others became complete listeners.

"I'm sorry, if it weren't for saving me, you wouldn't have revealed your identity at all, and you wouldn't have risked crossing the desert. It's all because of me. Sorry ......"

"Why are you apologizing? You didn't ask me to save it. The monkey held a weed in his mouth and looked at the sunset on the horizon: "There is no mountain that cannot be bypassed, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome, and when we walk through the desert, it is a new world." Maybe I'll have to thank you again. Hey, hey, hey. ”

"Have you always been so optimistic?"

The monkey glanced at the white frost, then looked back at the other lifeless companions, and said, "What can you do if you are not optimistic?

As he spoke, he put on a singing posture again, looking like a harlequin.

White Frost smiled sweetly.

In the evening, the howl of hungry wolves could be heard in the distance, and the sound made White Frost tremble, but the others did not care.

That's probably what it's called, get used to it.

In order to protect against the cold and the wolves that could come at any time, everyone lit a bonfire. All night, the head of the ox squatted by the campfire to watch over.

As for the monkeys, they stood alone on a dead tree against the cold wind, looking into the distance, keeping vigil.

Looking at the fat intestines who were snoring and talking in their dreams from time to time, White Frost finally chose to sit on the dead tree and keep vigil with the monkeys.

"In this world, will there be a place where youkai can live well without being hunted down?"

"Of course there is, Demon Capital, have you heard of it?"

White Frost shook his head: "No." ”

"Hmm...... It's the same as Heavenly Court. All the good things are there, the difference is that human beings become immortals and go to Heaven, and if the monsters are mixed, they will go to the demon capital. There is the demon emperor Jun there, and there are five rulers, six demon kings, there are laws, and no one dares to mess around. The monsters who live in it don't have to live a precarious life. ”

As he said this, the monkey smiled, his face intoxicated, and the white frost was amazed.

"There are still such places in this world, and I think Heavenly Court is the biggest. ”

"Hey, that's what humans said, and the monsters also said that the demons are the biggest, and the heavens are all cowards. One day you meet the heavenly soldiers and generals, you see if they are cowardly. ”

"The best...... Don't meet each other. Bai Shuang replied in a low voice, thought about it, and then asked, "Then, why don't we go to the demon capital?"

"It's not time yet. ”

"That's right. White Frost looked at the monkey with blank eyes.

Looking at the lost appearance of the white frost, the monkey frowned, suddenly laughed, and said, "Do you know the lion camel king?"

"The Lion King?"

"Yes, one of the Six Demon Kings. is placed in the demon capital, and it is also a well-known character. As he spoke, the monkey gave a thumbs up: "The heavenly soldiers want to flee for their lives when they see it, and the heavenly generals will admit it when they see it, and when they stomp their feet, the earth will shake the mountains, and if they sneeze, they will catch a cold in the Three Realms!"

"That's amazing!" White Frost couldn't help but clap his hands.

"Of course. Otherwise, what do you think?" the monkey said vividly: "Lion Camel King, that is three heads and six arms, green face and fangs, otherwise why should the heavenly soldiers be afraid of him, right? His nine-ring broadsword weighs 10,800 pounds, and when he usually goes out, he has to be carried by a 180-digit monster!"

"Why didn't he take it himself?"

"How can the demon king have his own weapons, and how much will he lose?"

"Yes, but youkai number 180...... How do you carry it?"

"Put it in a box and carry it! Have you ever seen a sedan chair?"

"Oh, I see. ”

What does a sedan chair carried by one hundred and eighty people look like?

White frost couldn't help but think.

"What I have seen with my own eyes, can there be any mistakes? Not only is the big knife heavy, but the armor is also heavy, it is 100,000 catties! A piece of armor the size of a palm must weigh several hundred pounds, and there are 9,999 pieces of the whole body!" The more the monkey spoke, the more excited he became, and he stood on the tree and posed as if he were the lion camel king.

"However, a piece of a few hundred catties, nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine pieces shouldn't be a few million catties?"

At this question, the monkey staggered and almost fell off the tree.

"Are you alright?"

"I accidentally stepped on an empty ......"

"Why are you so careless?"

Finally re-climbing the tree with the help of the hoarfrost, the monkey glanced at the hoarfrost with some embarrassment.

After making sure that the white frost was nervous and had forgotten about the question just now, he breathed a sigh of relief.

I saw that his eyes were boneless, his eyebrows were raised, and he said: "I won't tell you, I haven't only seen the Lion Camel King, but also ...... I have a good relationship with him. ”

"Really?"

"What are you lying to?" the monkey reached out and grabbed a yellow hair from his waist, "Do you know what this is?"

"It's ......"

"Lion hair!" said the monkey with a grin, "This is a token from the Lion Camel King!"

"Wow! you're amazing!" White Frost was stunned and reached out to touch it.

"Don't! Don't touch it!" The monkey hurriedly took the "lion hair" back: "You can only look at it, you can't touch it." If it were someone else, I wouldn't even be able to see it. ”

As he spoke, the monkey took the "lion hair" into a small bag around his waist.

"But how can it be the same color as your fur?"

"Otherwise, how can it be said to be fate?"

"That's right. ”

The monkeys flickered around one by one, and they all arose.

At this moment, Bai Shuang said coldly: "That...... Why don't we go to the Lion Camel King?"

"Forehead ......"

"Let's go to the Lion Camel King, so that we don't have to be afraid of Taoist priests?"

The monkey was suddenly a little stunned, scratched his head and said, "That...... The time has not come, the time has not come. What kind of person is the lion camel king? Is it a dragon that you can find when you and I see the head but not the tail? When the time comes, you will naturally encounter it. Hahahaha. ”

"Hmm. White Frost pursed her lips and nodded heavily.

Looking at Bai Shuang's serious appearance, the monkey suddenly felt a little empty again, so he had to solemnly admonish: "This matter is a little secret between you and me, and you can't say anything about it." ”

"Can't they even say it?"

"No, you can't. I want to surprise them later. ”

"Okay, I'm not going to say it!" White Frost nodded again heavily.

Hearing this, the monkey was reassured, and pointed at the white frost with a smile: "I really didn't misunderstand you!"

......

The next morning, as they were putting out the campfire and preparing to set off, an arrow suddenly shot out of the dead grass not far away, and struck the fat intestine in the shoulder.

The next moment, before the monsters could react, a large number of humans had rushed out from all directions!

The bearded man with his turban mounted on a camel and shouted, "Lay down your arms!"

After saying that, he realized that these monsters had no weapons in their hands at all. Soon, the monkey and his party were tied up and carried back to the camp.

"Damn, where did this beggar come from, he is so poor, he has nothing, even his clothes are full of lice!"

"When youkai think like this, it's better to die. ”

"Isn't there a woman who stays to be the lady of the village?"

"Look at her grizzled face, she's still a goblin, do you dare to ask for it?"

"The monsters are all robbed, do you still have a royal law?" Looking at the group of robbers who were messing around outside the cage, Da Hong, who was stripped naked with his hands tied, wanted to cry for a while.

The hoarfrost was temporarily classified as a trophy, gagged and thrown along with the clothes.

About half an hour later, the Lord came, and it was an old man with a white beard in a turban.

"Where are you from?"

"Southside. ”

"Where are you going?"

"North. ”

"What are you doing in the north?"

"Singing. ”

"Huh?" singing monsters, I've never heard of this.

At the request of the white-bearded old man, the monsters tried to sing a part, which was really good-looking, and coaxed the white-bearded old man very happy. And so, their shackles were untied in a bummer.

"There is a way to steal, we only seek money, not life. Let's go. However, when you've got the guys done, remember to come back and play a show for the old man. ”

"Yes, yes, it's a word!"

Before leaving, the robbers also prepared water and food for the monkeys and others, and told them to go north, and in four or five days, they could cross the desert.

Sometimes the world is so wonderful, and the sudden good fortune rushes the monkey a little bit to find the north. Holding the hand of the white-bearded old man, he couldn't let go for a long time.

This is probably the friendliest human he has ever met.

However, on the third night after the monkey left the bandit camp......

......

The fire burning in the iron basin turned all the houses red.

In the open space in the middle of the camp, several still warm corpses lay quietly, blood oozing from under them mixed with the mud and sand, turning a dark color. The rest of the dozens of robbers were all crouching in the corner, shivering.

Standing in front of them were six youkai in brown armor.

"Can't find it?"

At the head of the group is a crocodile spirit wrapped in black armor.

The lizard spirit holding the toad tracking breath on the side swallowed his tongue and said, "I can't find it, it seems that I have really left." ”

The crocodile spirit walked up to the white-bearded old man who was squatting on the ground, and the robbers screamed in fright.

The white-bearded old man hurriedly begged for mercy: "Demon grandfather, demon grandfather, we really didn't hurt them." Not only were they not injured, but they were also given dry food and water. ”

"Oh?" the crocodile spirit sneered and pulled the other party's hair, looking down at the white-bearded old man from top to bottom: "Then tell me, where have they been?"

"They...... They went north. It's not far away. We really didn't hurt them, I don't believe you will find out when you see them and ask. If the old man has half a lie, let it be cut by a thousand cuts!

"Yes, yes. We didn't hurt them, they lived well. The other robbers hurriedly chimed in.

The crocodile nodded meaningfully.

"I believe in you. With that, the crocodile spirit let go of the hand that was holding the old man's hair.

The white-bearded old man's tear-stained face finally squeezed out a smile.

However, before the other robbers could react, the next moment, a turn, the crocodile spirit's axe had already slashed through the throat of the white-bearded old man.

It was too late to call for help, so the white-bearded old man covered his bleeding neck and slowly collapsed.

For a while, screams and cries came and went in the camp.

"Not a single one remains. ”

"No!"
