The old skin said seriously: "Good man, I want to say..... In this world, there are no goblins at all, do you believe it?"

In the past, someone told Jiang Ming this, and Jiang Ming absolutely believed it! But now, ..... He felt that this old man was deliberately pretending to be innocent with himself, so he sneered and shook his head.

"Ahem.....! We spirit beast cultivation, don't go astray, we always feel ..... He can cultivate into a human form, and he can change seventy-two times like Sun Monkey, but that's all wishful thinking! People are people, animals are animals, and immortals are immortals.

Jiang Ming wanted to tell him that he was a human and turned into a beast, so how could he say this? But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't help it.

"Ahem, ahem, I met such a fox in the county town last night! It's a fox, it can turn into human form, it can turn into wood, it can eat and make ......."

Jiang Ming simply recounted the encounter with the fox girl, and the old skin who listened to it was shocked, and blinked vigorously with one eye, and the "laser pointer" almost lit up again.

"If there really is such a thing..... Then it's definitely not an animal!" said the old skin, frowning.

"It's not ..... It's a human being, right? Eh, old and immortal, think about it again, what is there in this world that can switch between flesh, stone, and wood, this guy..... Not only can I turn into wood, but I can also drive some shovels, mops and the like to turn into foxes to bite me......," Jiang Ming said.

The old leather man moved his steps and muttered, "When I was young, oh..... At that time, people were still wearing big braids, but I met someone who did something similar to you......"

Lao Pizi said that in the north of the capital, there was a village, and there was an old tree at the entrance of the village, dozens .....of zhang high! It takes five or six men to hug it, which can really be described as a pillar of the sky and clouds, and a purple and golden beam in the sea!

Then..... Lafayette wanted to repair the garden, and the officials below fell in love with this tree, and sent soldiers to cut it down, but they couldn't cut it down! The bark of the tree was as strong as iron, and it could burst out with sparks when it was split with knives and axes!

Later, there was an official who didn't have enough brains to suggest that it would be better to ..... I tried it with foreign guns and foreign cannons, and I really set up foreign guns and foreign cannons, trying to knock down this tree!

After the earth-shattering cannon fired, the towering giant tree trembled violently, but it still did not fall, but it ..... On the trunk of the tree, a shallow pit the size of a bowl was blasted out, and the flesh inside was blurred, and blood was spurting out.......

At this time, the officials were also frightened and began to believe the words of the common people: This tree is a sacred tree, and it cannot be cut down!

So he fled in a hurry with his men, but the retribution was ..... It was fulfilled in a few days!

Lao Pizi didn't know, but the common people in that village hanged themselves one after another, and the panicked villagers left their homes and no longer dared to live on that territory.......

".....What a man! Flesh and wood, if they can change with each other, this matter may be the only one, but it is a sacred tree, neither livestock nor human, not something that my generation can peep into......" said the old skin with a wink.

Jiang Ming sighed, still immersed in the story of Lao Pizi, and asked puzzledly: "This is a little incredible, these ordinary people ..... He didn't provoke the sacred tree, and he also prevented the officials from cutting it down...... Why did the Divine Tree bring disaster upon them? This Divine Tree is also a fool. ”

"You can't say that..... O good man, you don't know the temper of the gods, I remember when I was a child, my mother told me a personal experience......"

Lao Pizi opened the conversation box and told Jiang Ming another story about the past.

It is said that in the village next door in the past, there was a Niangniang Temple, there was no incense in the temple, it was in disrepair, dilapidated, I don't know what year it was built.....? No one knows who the lady on the shrine table is? No one knows, but it's just an abandoned and deserted house.

Lao Pizi's mother's maiden home is from that village, and after getting a little creation, she lives in that temple, just like it is now, hidden in the land temple of this village.

Although the beasts have understood human nature and have gained some cultivation, they do not believe in ghosts and gods, after all, this world is objective, sugar is sweet, salt is salty, and they are not stupid.

But there was one thing that completely subverted the worldview of Lao Pizi's mother, it was on a thunderstorm night, and the rain was so heavy that it filled all the ditches in the village.

There is an idiot who entered the Niangniang Temple, picked up the wood carving Bodhisattva in the Niangniang Temple, and set up the earthen ditch as a bridge, the heavy rain was drenched, and the human feet were stepping on, and the Niangniang wood carving was not miserable!

The old skin's mother thought at the time, this is a fairy.... It's also sad to do it to this point, and the incense offerings can't be enjoyed, even if they don't ..... is still being ruined like this, and they all say that the phoenix that falls into the water is not as good as a chicken, and this down-and-out fairy is not as good as a weasel like himself!

Fortunately, at dawn, a kind old man took the wood carving Bodhisattva back, wiped it clean with a clean cloth, and read sins in his mouth... Sin..... He bowed three times to the wood carving Bodhisattva and bowed nine times, and also put on offerings such as eggs, melons, fruits, pears and peaches, burned high incense, and left after a real worship and prayer.

When the mother of the old skin, looking at the dazzling array of food, was ready to feast, the wood carving that had never spoken actually spoke!

The one who spoke first...... It was not the Bodhisattva Niangniang, but a maid beside her, who was also a woodcarved villain, with a body as big as a puppy, and murmured: "Niangniang, that man last night was so hateful, we should bring disaster to him." ”

The old skin's mother's body trembled, stiffened into a lump of wax, and did not dare to move again, and when it wondered if it had heard it wrong, the woodcarved Bodhisattva spoke: "Ahem...... If you really want to bring disaster, then send it to the old man who sent me back this morning!"

At that moment, the old skin's mother was almost frightened and didn't pee, but she really heard clearly, it was the Bodhisattva who was talk.....ing! This bodhisattva who gets along with himself day and night is actually alive!

The little woodcarving maid was puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "Niangniang, why is this? The person in front is disrespectful to you, uses you as a bridge envoy, tramples on you, and the one in the back ..... I was so respectful to you, and I put so much food and incense on you, but you want to bring disaster upon him?"

The wood carving bodhisattva sighed: "The idiot in front, he doesn't believe me at all, even if you bring disaster to him, he won't think it...... It's because of the disaster brought about by last night's fault, but this later.... He believes in me, as long as he is punished a little, he will think that he is not dedicated to serving me, and he will worship us more diligently, everything is like this, you play the piano to the cow, it is useless to kill it!"

When Lao Pizi talked about this, he said stupidly: "Good man, the truth of this god is not as simple as we think! Those officials don't believe in the god tree at all, as for whether it was given to them by disaster, I don't know, but ..... The people in that village believe in the sincerity of the sacred tree, so they ..... It only makes sense to send disaster upon them. ”

Jiang Ming's head was dizzy when he heard it, and he couldn't believe it..... There is also such logic, but it seems to be ...... There is another reason.

Seemingly..... This so-called divine existence is also to see people cook, you take it seriously, but it will bring disaster, how many good men and women in the world, every day burn incense and pray and there is no good reward, it can be seen..... It's still the old saying: people can't be too nice, dogs can't be too full, this fairy ..... I also know the art of jujubes, and hang your servility to serve it.

But..... That fox head, a monster with a woman's body, could it be a fairy?

"If you don't die old, it's hard to do it..... That dog thing, it's also an immortal bodhisattva?" Jiang Ming asked with a frown.

"Phew!" the old man took a sip and said, "Good man, even if I am an immortal, it can't be, don't you say..... It still eats people, from this point of view, it can't be a god! Don't think of it as too evil, although I don't know what it is, but I believe it..... Someone can see it. ”

"Who?" Jiang Ming asked with a frown.

Lao Pizi let out a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment and said, "30 miles away from Huojia Village, there is a Zhangwang Village...... The Baocun fairy there is a white-haired old mouse who is well-informed...... Astronomy and geography are unknown, and there is nothing it doesn't know......."

As soon as he heard the words "white-haired old mouse," Jiang Ming's heart twitched, those stinky rats were simply his nightmare! Now they all have psychological shadows, damn it! The white-haired old rat who also knows astronomy and geography! Is it the same thing as those fat rats who played with him at the beginning?

"Ahem," Jiang Ming coughed lightly twice, frowned and asked, "That old mouse, what is the origin.....?" Do you have the same bell around my neck?"

Lao Pizi was stunned by Jiang Ming's question, blinked and muttered, "...... bell?"

"No, no, no, how can a rat have a bell tied to its tail?" it sighed in confusion, "rats live by stealing things, how can they steal things if they tie bells.....?" Who dares to tie a bell to it, that is the most powerful Baojia Immortal within a radius of 100 miles!"

"Uh-uh," Jiang Ming swallowed and spit, his hanging heart finally let go of a little, and continued to ask, "Then tell me about the origin of that guy?"

"Where did you come from..... Let me tell you this, I'm old enough, I'm going to call it uncle, how old do you say it's it? It's a rat from my mother's generation!" muttered the old skin.

"I'm rubbing?" Jiang Ming clicked his mouth in surprise, didn't that mean...... He had never thought that a stinky rat would live that long.

"Good man, if you can get it to help you, then many things will be much easier, but ....." the old skin said again.

"Just what?" Jiang Ming asked with a frown.

The old skin's one-eyed man turned around and said, "It's just that the white-haired old mouse has a strange personality, is it willing to help you...... I can't guarantee that. ”
