Chapter 152: Chess meets opponents
The mountain wind sways in the forest, rustling and rustling.
In the sky of Qingming, the fire in the attic was extinguished, and smoke was rippling in the wind to the outside of the mountain. Torches gathered at the foot of the mountain, and people shouted loudly.
"It's here!" "Look, there is smoke floating out from above!"
"What the god said is that there must be no more running away here. In this wilderness, whoever has nothing to do to cultivate the temple here must be a demon! "
"Hurry up, the soft ladder in front is set up, go up and take a look!"
The fire was shaking. The county magistrate who was commanding in front was wearing official uniforms. He received the gods and showed his saints and organized people to arrive in the mountain. It was already dawn in the early morning. If it weren't for the fire on the top of the mountain in the dark, he might not have found it.
"Don't gossip, go up and save people!"
The county magistrate waved his hand and sent dozens of yamen runners over. On the cliffs, the mountaineer who was good at climbing firmed the soft ladder to the tree body above and made a gesture of "Can you come up" at the people below.
"superior!"
The climbing yamen runners gritted their teeth and climbed up with their colleagues below. Soon after, the people gathered almost and rushed to the Monument.
Step by step…..
The footsteps ran over the paved floor of Baiyan. As soon as I entered, I was stunned by the eaves and water pavilions, the flowerbeds and pavilions. If it weren't for the charred wooden building burning with blue smoke, this place would be like a paradise.
“See everywhere! Quick!”
The leader seemed to be the leader holding the hilt of the knife around his waist and loudly directed a group of yamen runners to disperse. "Along the way, the immortal said there were women and children here, so there must be some."
After walking a few steps, the head of the captain swept around in the torch light in his hand, and suddenly stopped.
"painting?"
I bent down to pick it up, a scroll that was cut open in the middle, and the ferocious beasts on it were vivid. Just one look made the captain feel chill.
"It must be left behind by the immortal when he fought with this evil person... Hum? Lu Liangsheng? It seems that he had heard of this name somewhere."
Things like this are hard to see in the world. The headmaster looked around and rolled up the scroll and put it in his arms. At this time, the yamen runners searched for it also made great achievements.
Someone poked out of the square wooden building and shouted:
"Finally, there are many women and children put in pottery jars!"
The officers scattered around him surrounded him. The captain accelerated his foot and pushed away the two people blocking the road in front of him, pressing the hilt of the knife and strode to the second floor. He saw that the constable under his command were carrying children or women out of the urn, and there were at least hundreds of pottery jars around him.
"It must be done by those who advocate evil spirits! Go and notify the county magistrate at the foot of the mountain and send some civilians up!"
"yes!"
The constable in public uniform moved and ran wildly in the direction he came, shouting to the foot of the mountain. Soon, more people climbed up along the soft ladder, helping to tie the children or women behind their backs and send them to the foot of the mountain one by one.
"What are you going to stay in such a smoky place!"
The county magistrate was also a jealous person. Looking at the unconscious child and girl, he ordered the constables who were still on it to burn the temple with a fire.
The flames crackled and lit up the wooden building, illuminating the sky in the morning. On an adjacent mountain, Lu Liangsheng blinked, withdrew his gaze, and finally felt relieved.
"Master, we can leave..."
The arms burned by the magic fire were supported on the ground and stood up. The scholar walked back into the woods. The bonfire burned the bottom of the pot and cooked rice. The toad Taoist sat cross-legged on the side, staring at the woman in a black dress that was not far away under the tree, bound her hands and feet.
Hong Lian squatted beside the woman, held her chin and looked for a while, tilted her head and asked, "Master Toad, why do you think her cultivation for a thousand years is so easy to be caught? And... she looks stupid."
The woman with her hands and feet tied her eyes open and lay on the ground in confusion. Her tight dress showed her slender and convex figure, and she was motionless.
"Well... it may be sealed in the box by the people of the Chuihuo Cult, which hurts the soul."
The firelight reflected the red toad face, and the toad Taoist embraced the webbed and looked at the apprentice who was walking back, and raised his chin slightly.
"Hmph... I think of how good I was in my cultivation back then, I was besieged by dozens of major sects and never had any souls. This kind of tree demon with only a thousand years of cultivation is even good enough to carry shoes for me."
"Master, you said only a few last time..."
Lu Liangsheng sat naked next to the fire. His robe was burned last night and he had no clothes to wear. Now he had to bite the bullet and bare it.
I scooped three bowls of porridge and sprinkled the chopped diced meat on it.
"After the meal, let's leave and go to Jinzhou to settle down first. Since you promised Yang Su, you can't break your trust. After that... you'll simply go back to Nanchen. After that, you've been homesick."
"Well... it's fine."
The toad sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the small porcelain bowl placed in front of him, "I guess the things I am from my master will be placed elsewhere by that Mingzun. I will wait for my cultivation to recover in the future and then find him..."
Speaking of this, when I saw the sprinkled diced meat, my words suddenly changed.
"Put some diced meat, add some more!"
When the cube fell down and crossed the toad Taoist's gaze, the corners of his mouth cracked excitedly, and then... a slender black shadow stretched out, wrapping up the falling cube.
The Toad Taoist opened his mouth, where is the flesh?
Slowly turning his face, the woman in a black dress lying under the tree over there blinked her eyes, and her scarlet tongue licked from the corner of her mouth.
The toad opened his mouth, poked out his long tongue and looked at him, and then looked at him.
...that mother.
This is how the roots are used? You are a tree demon, not a toad!!
Over there, the woman in black dress sat up, watched the toad Taoist poking out her tongue, and then stretched out her long tongue, dancing in the air, and could split into several small red snakes, like slender red snakes.
On the side, the old donkey gnawing on the grass trotted over and stretched out his tongue and flipped around his mouth.
It's like a chess match.
"Enough!"
The toad Taoist twitched the corners of his mouth, withdrew his tongue, slapped the ground and shouted loudly, holding the small bowl and turning in one direction:
"Have a meal!"
The scholar looked at the depressed master and smiled. After coming here, he probably had figured out the origin of the woman in black dress. A tree demon that the Qihuo Sect used to capture was not known. However, it hurt his mind and many memories were not sound. He was stupid and stupid, but it might have been like this before, otherwise he would not have been caught.
The long tongue in the mouth is actually the countless thorns I saw in the box before.
"I just don't know how to deal with this tree demon..."
Lu Liangsheng also felt a little headache, so he wouldn't have killed him, right? If he let him go and ignore him, it would be a troublesome thing if he was found by the Qihuo Sect again.
"Forget it, I'll take it with me for the time being. Let's go to Jinzhou first and then talk about it later."
The mountain wind was gentle, and the morning light spread across the foothills. The luggage and bookshelf were cleaned up. Lu Liangsheng led the old donkey to the west and walked through the forest. The sunlight was bathed in his face. He occasionally lowered his head, looked at the map in his hand, turned to a corner, and continued to move forward.
In the bookshelf compartment, the toad followed the old donkey and shook it, supporting his chin. The toad eyes stared at the black-skirt tree demon pulled by a rope. The latter looked around curiously and found the toad looking at her, sticking out his tongue and going in and out between his lips...
The old donkey turned his head, stuck out his tongue and shook it.
"Don't learn!"
