Volume 1 The Lock Demon Tower Chapter 12 The sound of chaotic footsteps
Feng Shaonan hurriedly flew out with his sword, and Zhong Kui saw that he was so nervous, so he also chased after him with the wind.
"I said, Brother Feng, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Oh, you don't know, that old man is afraid that his life is in danger!"
"What, the worry about my life? laugh at me to death, with his arrogance, I'm afraid Lord Yama won't dare to accept it. ”
"Okay, okay, your temper won't change. It was indeed a wolf paw print on the wall, but it was deeper and larger than an ordinary wolf paw print. So, I guess it must have been left behind by the werewolves. ”
"What, werewolf? Isn't this species extinct? Zhong Kui looked at Feng Shaonan in surprise.
"I don't know exactly why. ”
"Then what does this werewolf have to do with the old man? ”
"Yes, the werewolf does not have anything to do with the old man, but today I found a demonic aura in front of the old man's house, originally I thought it was the reason for the cold weather to cause the illusion, but when I think of the full moon night in recent nights, there is no doubt about it. ”
"You mean there's a monster hidden in the old man's house?"
"Yes, hurry up, or the old man will be in danger of his life!" After speaking, he accelerated his flight speed again.
After a while, they came to the old man's residence.
Hearing a commotion in the room, Feng Shaonan hurriedly rushed in.
Inside the house, a young man was tied to the pillar with five flowers, the old man was trying his best to suppress the irritable youth, when the old man saw Feng Shaonan rushing in, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, the young man took advantage of the old man's stunned moment, used all his strength to break the rope, pushed the old man away, and was about to take the door.
At this time, Feng Shaonan hurriedly jumped in front of the young man and blocked his way.
The young man was furious, stretched out his hand to choke Feng Shaonan's throat, and then was about to bite his throat, but the old man who saw this scene fainted in fright on the spot.
When the old man woke up again, he saw Feng Shaonan sitting at the head of the bed looking at him, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Two distinguished guests, have you been injured in any way?"
"It's not that you get hurt, old man, why do you keep saying 'evil' when you are unconscious, what is going on?" Feng Shaonan saw that the old man woke up, and his hanging heart finally let go.
"I'm sorry for the two of you!" After speaking, the old man knelt in front of Feng Shaonan.
Seeing this, Feng Shaonan hurriedly helped up the old man on the ground: "This can't be done!"
"No, you made me say it on my knees. ”
Seeing that the old man insisted on this, Feng Shaonan did not stop him.
"Here's the thing, I have a son who has always loved robbing graves, and just the last month, disaster struck......"
"That day, I cooked and waited for him as usual, but I didn't see him come back until midnight. On the second day, he returned, but his temperament changed greatly, and he did not communicate with people or rob tombs. At first, nothing else was unusual, but later on, I found that every full moon night, he would come to the courtyard to learn how to howl wolves. When the people of the village heard this, they all said that he was possessed by a wolf demon. Then I found a black stone carved with a wolf totem in his room, which I thought was the work of the stone, buried it in the courtyard, and then moved with him out of the village and came to live here. In this way, a month later, on the night of the full moon, although he will not learn to howl wolf, but he will still be irritable, so I tie it up every full moon night, so that he will not run back to the village to bite people, today the two distinguished guests want to come to me to spend the night, I am afraid that he will hurt the two, so I drove the two away!"
Feng Shaonan fell into deep thought after hearing this.
"Old man, are you talking about a round black stone with a wolf's head engraved on it?" Feng Shaonan said as he looked at the old man.
"Exactly!" the old man looked at Feng Shaonan, "Does this distinguished guest know this stone?"
"I don't know each other, I also know who is making trouble in this matter!" Feng Shaonan looked at the old man thoughtfully, "By the way, the village you are talking about is fifteen miles west of here, and the village is magnificent?"
"Exactly, have you ever been there, how are the villagers, have you mentioned me as an old man?"
"To tell you the truth, I am a Taoist priest of Shushan, and the people in your village are gone!"
"It turned out to be the two Taoist leaders, why did the people in the village disappear?"
"You're embarrassed to ask!" Zhong Kui was furious, "You better ask your good son and yourself, if it weren't for your son who robbed the tomb and brought the wolf Tengshi home, and you buried him in the village, why would those villagers be so good." And you and your coming to move out of the village will naturally not be affected. ”
"This, this ......"
The old man was speechless when he was scolded.
"Okay, okay, Brother Zhong, this old man doesn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have done it. After saying that, he helped up the old man who was kneeling on the ground.
"This Daoist, where have those villagers gone?" the old man said as he looked at Feng Shaonan.
"The old people don't need to panic, they were affected by the wolf Tengshi, turned into wolves and fled to the mountains, and when we find them, we can return to normal by reciting a few passages of the "Washing the Marrow Sutra" for them. ”
"Thank you so much, Daoist!" I saw him kneel down and kowtow, "Then how to solve my rebel, Daoist Chief, you can say it, if you want to kill or chop it, you will be at your disposal." ”
As he spoke, the old man pointed to the young man who was blocked by Feng Shaonan and couldn't move.
"Although your son made a mistake, he did not cause human life, and his sin did not lead to death, and when I wash his marrow, he can return to normal, but he must not be allowed to continue robbing the tomb, so as not to cause trouble!"
After speaking, he shot a mana at the young man, and then, the young man came to his senses.
Suddenly, he knelt down in front of the old man: "I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't control it, and I almost caused a big disaster." ”
"You don't have to apologize to me, you apologize to this Dao Chief!" After speaking, he pointed to Feng Shaonan.
"Thank you, Great!"
Feng Shaonan looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "Knowing that mistakes can be changed, good is great." Don't continue to rob tombs in the future. ”
As he spoke, Feng Shaonan hurriedly helped the young man up.
"Remember the Taoist Chief's golden words!"
"By the way, I haven't asked the names of the two yet!" Feng Shaonan looked at the two.
"My name is Erhu, and this is my father Li Lin. ”
"It turned out to be the Second Tiger Brother and Uncle Li!" Feng Shaonan laughed, "I wonder if it is convenient for the two of us to stay here today?"
"Convenient, convenient. Uncle Li smiled.
"I said Brother Feng, don't we all have a place to live, why do we have to stay here. Zhong Kui looked at Feng Shaonan puzzled.
"I said, why are you so stupid, don't ask yourself and treat yourself as stealing, we live in the village, have you asked the villagers?" Feng Shaonan couldn't help but glance at Zhong Kui.
"The two Taoist chiefs, I have picked up leaks in this house, and I hope the two of you will not dislike them. After speaking, he opened the door of the inner room and motioned for Feng Shaonan and Zhong Kui to live inside.
"How come, old man, you can let us stay overnight, we can't thank you too late!" After speaking, Feng Shaonan and Zhong Kui entered the house.
The room was shabby, with only a small bed and a dark table with a lamp lit on it.
Feng Shaonan sat cross-legged on the bed, and after a period of recent changes, he had to step up his practice.
In the middle of the night, he was awakened by the sound of chaotic footsteps.
