When Dongfang Yu and others arrived at Lanruo Temple, the sky had already darkened. In addition, Lanruo Temple was surrounded by woods, so it looked unusually dark. The dead and dilapidated old temple also looked unusual.
It's eerie and terrifying. Under the dim light, Lanruo Temple looks like a crawling, man-eating beast. Tian Lai Novel | 2
"Is this Lanruo Temple? But what about the monsters? Where are the monsters?" Standing in the open space in front of Lanruo Temple, looking at the dead silence of Lanruo Temple, the Shifang monk looked around for a moment, but found nothing.
I feel a little strange, isn't it said that there is a terrible man-eating monster entrenched in Lanruo Temple?
"Little monk, the monster of Lanruo Temple will not appear until night. Let's go in and rest first..." Yan Chixia answered, and as she spoke, she took the lead and walked into Lanruo Temple. Monk Shifang
Naturally, the others also followed in.
Walking into Lanruo Temple, Dongfang Yu could see that the place was indeed more dilapidated than before, and everything was in a mess. However, Dongfang Yu carefully touched the many worn-out tables and chairs in Lanruo Temple, and found that there was no dust. For
This dead Lanruo Temple is indeed an unusual place. Sure enough, there are evildoers in this Lanruo Temple.
Although Yan Chixia was very confident in his own strength, but the battle was about to begin, he was sitting alone, obviously recuperating and preparing for the upcoming battle.
Even Master Kumu next to him was sitting cross-legged and chanting sutras in a low voice. However, Monk Shifang was a bit young after all, so he couldn't make up his mind. He sat for a while and touched his growling stomach. He was obviously hungry.
"Master, I'm so hungry..." Shifang touched his stomach and said to Master Kumu.
"Shifang, if you are hungry, go out and ask for alms by yourself." After hearing Shifang's words, Master Kumu opened his eyes and said.
"Master, forget it, I'm not hungry anymore." After hearing his master's words, Shifang thought for a moment, tightened his belt, and said, but he secretly muttered in his heart that it was getting dark in Lanruo Temple.
I don’t know where to go if I want to beg for alms. Forget it, just endure it. If this Lan is troubled by monsters, she won’t risk her life if she goes out alone.
After looking at the conversation between monk Shifang and his disciple, Dongfang Yu smiled heartily. There was no place nearby to ask for alms. Master Kumu obviously knew about it, but even if he knew, he still let monk Shifang find a way. See
Come on, are you trying to cultivate his own character?
The conversation between the master and the disciples of Shifang Monk here is just a small episode. Dongfang Yu carries supplies comparable to a large shopping mall, but now he has no intention of taking them out in a hurry, although he has not taken the initiative to hide his strength.
Meaning, but now that he saw Yan Chixia, Dongfang Yu was not in a hurry to take action. First, let's take a look at the strength of Yan Chixia who has inherited Yan Chixia.
Zhizhizhi...
After a while, in the suddenly silent night, I seemed to hear a series of shrill monkey calls, coming closer and closer.
Everyone knew that the monkey demon appeared in Lanruo Temple. When they heard the monkey's voice, everyone's expressions changed slightly. Yan Chixia, who was sitting cross-legged over there, opened her eyes instantly, looking eager to try, and said:
"Great, has this monster finally appeared?".
As everyone listened carefully, the squeaking monkey's cry got closer and closer, but seemed to disappear after reaching a certain distance. Monk Shifang held his breath and listened carefully.
But the monkey's cry disappeared within the time of a cup of tea. Just when Monk Shifang couldn't help but want to ask if the monster was gone, suddenly, there was a knock on the door of Lanruo Temple.
"Is there anyone inside?" Following the knock on the door, a dry and sharp voice sounded outside the dilapidated door of Lanruo Temple.
"I'll open the door." With the purpose of grabbing the bounty, Yan Chixia bravely stepped forward and opened the door of Lanruo Temple as she spoke. Everyone looked towards the door and saw a skinny old man standing there.
At the temple gate.
I looked carefully at this old man. He was skinny, very short, with sunken eye sockets. He looked a little scary. He also had a pole on his shoulders, and there were some trick objects on both ends of the pole. Beside the little old man,
There is also a little monkey tied up with a rope. Looking at it, it looks like an old man who walks around the world and performs monkey tricks.
"I got lost in the middle of the night. I wonder if it would be convenient to stay here for the night?" Standing at the door, the skinny old man asked.
In the middle of the night, a thin old man carrying a load appeared in Lanruo Temple. Isn't this a monster? But Yan Chixia didn't seem to be in a hurry to take action. She also wanted to see what kind of tricks the little old man was playing.
So I didn't expose his intention and said with a smile: "My father-in-law, you are too polite. We are staying here too. This Lanruo Temple does not belong to us. You can live wherever you like."
"Thank you, thank you..." After hearing Yan Chixia's words, the skinny old man couldn't help but thank him. After coming in, he found a corner to sit down by himself, took out two rotten fruits, and thought
After thinking for a while, he sighed softly and threw one of them to the monkey who was looking at him eagerly.
Everyone came with the purpose of getting rid of the monster, so they all knew that the little old man was a monster, so they naturally paid some attention to the little old man. The little old man looked quite honest and honest. He turned around and looked at everyone.
After one glance, there will be a casual chat with Dongfang Yu and others.
For example, he asked his monkey to do two somersaults for Xiaohong to play with. Xiaohong was very happy to see it and played with the monkey. This made Shifang hurriedly shout: "Xiaohong, come here quickly, brother wants to talk to you."
you say".
"Little monk, you seem to be very afraid of the little old man." He reached out and touched Xiao Hong who was playing with the monkey. The old man looked at the Shifang monk with a strange look and asked.
"Where, where..." After listening to the old man's words, Shifang scratched his bald head in embarrassment, but he was secretly nervous. Isn't this girl Xiaohong too heartless?
"Old man, where did you come from?" Yan Chixia calmly came and sat down next to the old man, vaguely protecting Xiaohong beside her, and at the same time she spoke to the old man.
"The old man is from Chenjiagouzi. The world is hard, so he has no choice but to come out to make a living. Alas..." After hearing Yan Chixia's words, the old man sighed and said with a sigh.
"Chenjiagouzi? Where is that place? I've been traveling around the world for so long and I haven't heard of it yet?" Yan Chixia asked calmly.
"Young man, Chenjiagouzi is quite far away from here, so it's not surprising that you don't know." He smiled, and the old man said, and just like that, the old man and Yan Chixia chatted about each other.
Very late.
"What's going on? What kind of trick is this monster playing?" After chatting for a long time, the old man didn't even watch him take action. Monk Shifang, Yan Chixia and others secretly felt strange.
It's normal for monsters to deceive people, but it won't take long for them to reveal their true colors, and the purpose is to eat people, right? But the old man transformed by the monkey monster actually chatted for more than half an hour without making any move? It
What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
"Master, do you think this old man is not a monster?" Even the monk Shifang asked in a low voice to Master Kumu beside him.
"Ten directions, talk less and watch more," Master Kumu replied in a low voice as he sat cross-legged and fiddled with his rosary beads.
Gululu...
Originally he just ate some rotten fruit, and after chatting for so long, the old man's stomach was already growling. He touched his stomach, looked around, and then looked at Yan Chixia, Dongfang Yu and others.
People asked: "Everyone, have you ever eaten it?"
Gululu...
Following the old man's words, Monk Shifang's stomach made a sound at this time. He touched his stomach, and Monk Shifang smiled sheepishly.
"It's rare to get along so well with you, how about I treat you to some meat?" Looking at the monks from all directions, the old man smiled kindly and said, and then waved to the monkey who was playing with Xiaohong, and at the same time asked from himself
A bright knife was found in the bag he was carrying.
"Old man, what are you doing?" Seeing the old man holding a little monkey in one hand and a knife in the other, and asking everyone to eat meat, Shifang was startled and shouted hurriedly.
"Little old man, I'm hungry too. You must be hungry too, right? Little old man, I'm tired from walking around. I won't be using this monkey anymore, so why not kill it and eat it? I heard that monkey brains are delicious.
, This is a rare opportunity, how about I treat you to some monkey brains?" In response to what Monk Shifang said, the little old man smiled and said.
He killed his own monkey and invited everyone to eat it. He actually said this with a smile, which made people feel an indescribable sense of horror for a while.
"No! Monks should refrain from eating meat! Dad, please don't kill me! I would rather starve to death than take a bite!" After listening to the old man's words, Shifang shook his head firmly and said, even though he was very hungry.
"Amitabha", after hearing the firm words of the monks from all directions, Master Kumu next to him whispered the name of the Buddha in a low voice with a look of relief on his face.
"You don't want to eat? That's a pity, little brothers, do you want to eat?" Looking at monk Shifang's answer, the old man was obviously very disappointed, and immediately turned to Yan Chixia, Dongfang Yu, Master Kumu, and even
Xiao Hong asked.
However, they didn't know what the old man meant, so everyone shook their heads and said they wouldn't eat it.
Seeing that everyone didn't want to eat, the old man seemed a little anxious and kept trying to persuade them.
But after trying for a long time, seeing that no one wanted to eat, the old man sighed helplessly, put away the short knife in his hand, yawned, and said that it was getting late, so he should go to bed hungry.
The old man took his little monkey and slept in a corner. Dongfang Yu and others looked at him without moving or saying anything. Lan Ruosi became quiet for a while.
The silence lasted until the sky turned white. The old man stood up. After taking a look at Dongfang Yu and others, he quietly packed up his things, then took his little monkey and quietly opened the door of Lanruo Temple.
He just left the door alone.
As the old man left, Monk Shifang, Yan Chixia and others opened their eyes almost at the same time.
Everyone barely slept well that night, and they were all on guard that the old man would take advantage of everyone's sleep, but the old man actually left like this?
