In the early morning, the two gates of Partridge Temple were opened, and three horses were parked in the open space in front of the gate.
One of the black horses was larger than the other two. It was fat and strong, with bulging muscles. Its whole body was as shiny as if it had been rubbed with oil. In particular, there were fine scales between its ears, which made it even more magical.
The other two horses stood next to the black-scaled horse, shaking their heads uneasily, and were particularly afraid of it.
The black-scaled horse raised its neck high and was wearing a golden thread armor. It was as proud and powerful as the owner on its back.
Cui Qingfeng and Zhao Qing each rode a strong horse and stood on the side of "Zhou Tiehu", both looking sideways at the partridge.
Zhao Qing's face was full of impatience, and he muttered: "This guy has no skills, but he still likes to put on airs, and he asked us to wait for him here!"
In fact, they have just arrived.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!" As soon as Zhao Qing finished speaking, a burst of barking came from the temple. As the barking got closer and closer, a fat tiger that was half the height of an adult's calf jumped out of the Taoist temple and rushed towards the door.
Three riders in the clearing barked.
Its tail is wagging and its ears are pressed back, looking quite cheerful.
The fat tiger's back has a steel needle-like vertical red mane which has become more and more obvious. As it barks loudly, the mane also stands up straighter, making the whole dog look like it has grown a lot bigger.
"This dog is really noisy!" Zhao Qing was even more displeased. He looked at Fat Tiger, rolled his eyes, and wanted to drive the strong horse to give Fat Tiger a hard hoof.
Unexpectedly, his horse seemed to be frightened by the barking of the dog, and was unable to move for a while.
However, the black-scaled horse couldn't stand the fat tiger's barking. When the fat tiger circled around it, it suddenly raised its front hooves as big as a bowl and was about to step down hard!
The fat tiger's body shape is not proportional to it.
If he stepped hard this time, Fat Tiger would probably die immediately and all his internal organs would burst out.
Cui Qingfeng was a little nervous when he saw this, but because it was the cherished mount of his boss Zhou Tiehu, and the black-scaled horse was a heterogeneous species resulting from the mating of a horse and a cat, he alone could not stop it.
This is the owner's place, and Cui Qingfeng and the others are not even guests. The purpose of raising a dog is to guard the home and protect the courtyard, and to warn the Lord. The yellow dog is just doing what it should do. If you kick it because of this,
How can I explain to my master if I am trampled to death?
Zhou Tiehu rode on the horse, sneered, and ignored it, letting the black-scaled horse step down with a hoof——
"Woof woof! Woof woof!" Fat Tiger immediately sensed the danger, tilted his body backwards, and avoided the hoof of the black-scaled horse with great dexterity. The red mane on his back was rooted, and he stared at the black-scaled horse, with his ears erect.
, roaring in protest, "Woof!"
It was still a puppy, and its cry sounded milky, but it frightened the other two strong horses and retreated away from the scope of the dispute.
The black-scaled horse was stared at fiercely by Fat Tiger. Seeing the white teeth in his mouth, as an animal, it could better sense the inexplicable power that Fat Tiger suddenly burst out, so it also shook its head, not daring to fight with Fat Tiger again.
The tigers looked at each other, and the pretense was just an unintentional move.
But Fat Tiger felt provoked by the black-scaled horse and refused to let him go. He lowered his body and approached the black-scaled horse step by step!
The black-scaled horse shook its head repeatedly, knocked its hooves lightly, and took a step back!
"Huh?" 'Zhou Tiehu', who was sitting on the horse, immediately noticed something strange about his mount. Unexpectedly, he was frightened by a yellow dog and became somewhat curious about the fat tiger.
He was about to go sideways and catch Fat Hu, when Ye Xuan's voice came over: "Pang Hu, come here!"
"Woof!" Fat Hu raised his head and yelled in warning towards Zhou Tiehu, then turned around and ran towards the gate of the Taoist temple.
Ye Xuan stood at the door, said hello to Zhou Tiehu and his party, and then ordered the temple guardian to jump out of the Taoist temple and wait at the foot of the steps. He turned around and locked the door himself.
The temple guardian jumped down the steps and stood there quietly. Because his head was covered with a black cloth, others could not see the dense scales on its neck and the bulge on its forehead.
Fat Tiger barked a few times as if asking for credit from Ye Xuan, then ran to the temple protector's feet and kept spinning around, wagging his tail, as if he was very familiar with the temple protector.
Ye Xuan ordered his daughter to play with sister Qianyu and stay in the backyard and not go out, for fear that the fake Zhou Tiehu would spot her.
When he closed the door, 'Zhou Tiehu' was also secretly observing him and Ye Xuan's temple guardian.
This temple-protecting god is even stronger than those strong men. He is really gifted. Who knows where did he find the good materials?
The dogs raised by Taoists and the temple guardians all have unique meanings. I may have some hidden methods, so I will need to 'take care' of him more.
Although Ye Xuan didn't know what 'Zhou Tiehu' was thinking, he knew that he invited him to investigate, and he definitely had the intention of killing him on the way to silence him, so he would always be on high alert against him.
He turned around, only to see Zhao Qing leaning towards him, curling his lips and saying: "Taoist priest, we are here to investigate important matters, not to enjoy the mountains and rivers. Do you want to take your dog with you?"
Moreover, we are both riding horses, and you don’t have a horse, so why don’t you follow me on foot?”
"Brother Ye and I are riding on the same horse." Cui Qingfeng quickly interrupted, fearing that Ye Xuan would be embarrassed by this.
He had the intention of making friends with Ye Xuan, so he was naturally willing to help him.
Ye Xuan nodded to Cui Qingfeng to express his gratitude, glanced at the fat tigers surrounding the temple protector, and said with a smile: "My dog has the ability to recognize the way. Yanghe Village is located in the Sishan area. If
If you get lost along the way, you may need its help."
"Scoff!" Zhao Qing smiled disdainfully and wanted to sneer again.
Ye Xuan's face changed, but he rolled his sleeves and said: "I don't know where I offended you, and I always make things difficult for you. If I do this again, I won't accompany you anymore! Just go and investigate on your own!"
Worshiping evil gods is not my job as a young Taoist priest!"
He didn't want to get involved in this obviously dangerous matter, so he took advantage of the opportunity to attack, hoping that the other party would really exclude him.
"Taoist Priest, don't get angry, don't get angry." Cui Qingfeng quickly smiled at Ye Xuan.
Zhao Qing didn't care, however. Just as he was about to say more, 'Zhou Tiehu' cast a cold look at him and said at the same time: "You are the only one who talks a lot! Let's go!"
He turned to look at Ye Xuan, which made Ye Xuan tense up: "Since you are involved in this matter, you must go!"
"I didn't say I couldn't go..." Being stared at by him like this, Ye Xuan could only mutter a few words, walked up to Cui Qingfeng's horse, and rode with him.
If there hadn't been a girl in the Taoist temple, a weak twin dragon, and Cui Qingfeng, an innocent policeman, I would have really wanted to join forces with Qianyu to tear off the disguise on 'Zhou Tiehu''s face on the spot!
This thought made Ye Xuan slightly shocked.
He considered himself not a troublemaker, but now he had this 'active offensive' idea.
This is because of practicing the Tiger Kasaya Boxing.
The tiger cassock method has such an impact on people's minds, but I don't know whether it is good or bad.
