"Don't be afraid. In the dim light, the Taoist priest said to a black cat under the table, "The Daoist wants to get rid of the big demons, and he doesn't care too much about small things like you." ”

The Taoist priest looked to be in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance. Wearing a robe that flows like water and shines brightly when moving, he speaks with the sound of the wind.

But the wind didn't come from his throat, it came from the window.

This room is small and simply furnished. There is a bed, a table, a stool. The walls are made of a single piece of rock, as are the doors and windows. But there was no window paper on the doors or windows, and the fierce wind howled in and through every crevice in the house, trying to stir up everything.

But the bed, the table and the stool were also made of rock, and the wind worked in vain, so it had to whine and break out again.

The Taoist priest seemed to be accustomed to such an environment. He paced two more steps in the wind and said, "It's not that the Dao Tong has no precedent for accepting demons as Zhenshan Divine Beasts. You have cultivated the Heavenly Heart Fa, and within a few months of attaining the Dao, you are already in the virtual realm, which is a good talent. If you tell Li Yunxin what he does on weekdays and all kinds of details, it can be regarded as a great contribution to the Dao Tong. By then......"

The black cat under the table suddenly spoke and whispered: "Stupid Taoist." You let me go down the mountain first, and I'll tell you one by one, okay?"

The Taoist priest didn't take it. Instead, he said, "The chicken essence is in another quiet room, and everything that needs to be said has already been said." Although his head is small and his realm is low, he understands things better than you. But he didn't look very good, and he was not dignified and decent. You call yourself a sheriff fairy - although it is nonsense, you are also beautiful, and you are more like a cultivator than the chicken essence. ”

"Now the poor Dao comes to ask you again, so that you can say it again, just to testify one by one, and to see your sincerity and consciousness. Whether you say it or not, we already know the general thing. This is your last chance - if you are so stubborn, you will have to give it to the demon next door. ”

As the Taoist priest spoke, the black cat lay on the ground, with its two front paws in his arms, squinting at him with golden eyes. When he finished speaking, the black cat yawned, his beard trembled slightly, and then spoke: "The king said when he lectured on the study of the mind for us on weekdays, this is called the prisoner's dilemma. If the two villains are locked up and don't confess, they can both get away with it. If you tell the truth, you may be severely fined. One person speaks and the other does not, and the one who says is exonerated and the one who does not speak is severely punished. ”

"Stupid Taoist. The one you use, the king is so clever that you don't know where to go. It's better to save it. The black cat closed its eyes again and rested its head on its front paws. After a while, I couldn't help but say again: "Hey, stupid." ”

The Taoist priest stopped talking. Stared at her coldly for a while, then pushed the door open and walked out.

There was no sound when the stone door turned, but the wind outside the door became louder for a moment. The door was closed, and the wind was silent—the black cat was still lying quietly under the table, not intending to jump out of the window or door—in fact the doors and windows were not covered with window paper or locked. Even an adult can easily drill out.

The Taoist priest stepped out of the door and stepped on the void. The sea of clouds is turbulent under his feet, and the moon hangs high overhead.

Because the door of the room was not flat, but hung in the air. A few hundred meters below the Taoist priest is a sea of clouds - a sea of clouds formed by the condensation of water vapor because of the extremely high and cold. On some nights, the sea of clouds will disperse, so that you can see something further down.

The horizon will take on a noticeable arc, and everything will look so small. There was only a faint light on the dark earth, and that light could only shine for a short time in the darkness. When the night gets deeper, the whole world is plunged into complete darkness.

The Taoist priest knew that those small points of light were the largest and most prosperous human cities in this known world. However, compared to the vastness of the earth and the deep darkness of the night, the power and presence of the worldly people seem so insignificant.

The Taoist priest had never descended the "mountain", so he could not imagine what a sad life it was, and what a sad group of people it was.

From his birth to the present, for a total of forty-six years, he has been living on the "Cloud Mountain". There are not many cultivators like him - born in the cloud mountain, cultivated in the cloud mountain, and feathered in the cloud mountain. They are interested in the sea of clouds, the blazing sun, and the bright moon, and they are not interested in anything under the sea of clouds.

Only the most ambitious and the least ambitious will go down into the world. Or for the sake of calamity, or for the enjoyment of glory. However, in the eyes of Taoist priests, the "glory" of the world is not as good as a pot of moonlight on Yunshan.

Yunshan was right behind him. But it was impossible for him to see the full picture of Yunshan right now.

Because the cloud mountain is so huge.

It is said that it was formed from a large fish named Kun from a long, long time ago. That big fish used the Etherless Void Universe as the ocean, swimming and stirring. Later, when it got tired, it stopped on the sea of clouds of the armillary sphere and fell into a deep sleep. The celestial beings cast magical powers on its body, making it turn into this cloud mountain and give it a place for the monks to live in.

It is also said that one day this kun will wake up. Maybe in billions of years, maybe tomorrow.

Taoist priests like this statement. This makes them, the practitioners, always hang a sharp sword in their hearts, and they will not slack off.

The room where the black cat was located was on the stone wall of Cloud Mountain, at the lowest level of Cloud Mountain. That room is to Yunshan what a grain of sand is to a giant whale. The shape of the cloud mountain does resemble a fish. The Taoist priest has not seen the whole picture, but he has read the classics.

His current location is probably in Fishtail, where the Thirty-Six Caves hold evil deeds. He stood in the void for a moment, flying diagonally upwards in the gale. Soon another person flew over from the other side, and the two converged in the moonlight.

The person who came was a Taoist priest in the same costume, and he was the same age.

The Taoist priest who interrogated the black cat walked side by side with him, was silent for a while, and said, "Stubborn." In my opinion, it is best to kill it. ”

The latecomer shook his head, his voice intermittent in the wind, but it was very clear: "The Holiness of Kunwuzi said that you must not be killed or punished. They may have other uses. ”

"One is the demon of the virtual realm, and the other is the demon of the artistic conception. If you are a cultivator on this cloud mountain, you are not allowed to go out of the cave. The Taoist priest said disdainfully, "What use can it be." Can it be used as a ...... in the future?"

"Just what you think. The latecomer nodded, "What the Pontify said at the beginning was to keep these two demons. In case Li Yunxin can't be controlled in the Nether, these two demons may be used to hold him hostage. ”

Hearing this, the Taoist priest's eyes widened in disbelief: "Can't be controlled? A demon incarnated by a Danqing Taoist priest has just been the real realm—how can it be 'uncontrollable'?"

"His Holiness always has a point. Let's do what we say. The latecomers were also a little helpless in their words.

The two of them walked straight up in the moonlight.

Compared to the entire Cloud Mountain, they are like two grains of dust around a giant whale. (To be continued.) )
