At what age are you still being a traditional monster?

Lin Xu was covered in cold sweat, suffering severe pain in his head, and kept silently chanting: "Wukong! Wukong! Wukong!"

Through the name of the mind ape, Lin Xu managed to stabilize his mind, took a hard step, stepped backward step by step, and walked out of the cave with difficulty.

Seeing this, the land hurried forward to support Lin Xu, and asked, "This is Taoist?"

Lin Xu wiped the cold sweat off his face, and said seriously: "Old land, there is a demon in this cave."

"demon?"

"No, it's an outsider."

The land looked puzzled, not knowing what a demon was.

Lin Xu didn't know how to explain it, he just said: "This is the great enemy of people in my Taoist sect."

The land was shocked, "That will be a disaster."

Lin Xu shook his head and said: "I don't know, it is designed to disrupt the cultivation of people in our Taoist sect, just like Bo Xun who disrupted the cultivation of Buddha in the past."

"Will it harm someone?"

"The methods of harming people are different. The Demon King specializes in luring people who practice the Tao astray. If the people who cultivate the Tao harm others because of this, who do you think will be blamed?"

The land said: "Since this is the case, we should get rid of it."

Lin Xu said: "I don't know exactly how to do it, I have to go back and ask, but there must be a reason for this demon king to appear in this world because of a little demon." Kill that Yellow Tail King.

Land glanced at the hole and said, "Then what should we do now?"

Lin Xu thought for a while, now the monkey is probably confronting [-] heavenly soldiers in Huaguo Mountain, and it is probably useless to ask the current ape to subdue the demon. Monkey is now in a rebellious period, but he can't ignore it.

"I'll do something first."

Lin Xu did what he thought, occupied the threshold, mobilized the Yin Tiger's power in his dantian, opened his hands, countless cold air gushed out from the cufflinks, and sealed the sweet hole. A few boulders were placed, and a maze of eight golden locks was made to prevent others from entering by mistake.

After finishing all this, Lin Xu said to the land: "Old Land, I have one thing to ask."

"Master, please tell me."

Lin Xu said earnestly: "You need to watch over this cave day and night, and you can't teach others to approach it. If there is any reaction in the cave, don't worry about it. Just sneak into the ground to hide. When you can contact the heaven, report it immediately, and ask the heaven to send you down. The Four Heavenly Masters are here."

The "Four Heavenly Masters" are Zhang Tianshi, Ge Tianshi, Sa Tianshi and Xu Tianshi.

These four are the first four gods of the Jade Emperor, and they are also the four powerful Taoists in the immortal class. They should have a way to deal with the ten demon kings.

The land immediately responded one by one.

"In that case, I'm going down the mountain."

The land sent Lin Xu all the way down the mountain.

At this time, in Ganwei Cave, the lid of the coffin slipped slightly, and slowly fell on the ground full of flowers and plants, and the flowers and plants on the ground died one by one.

When there was an empty sound, the coffin was empty.

On the other hand, ever since Lin Xu said that he was going to enter the mountain, Chen Zao had been waiting with the caravan until the group of hunters who followed him to the mountain returned.

"Where's the Taoist priest?" Chen Zao asked.

"I don't know, there is really a monster in that mountain. I didn't dare to drag the Taoist priest, so I came back first."

Chen Zao frowned, and waited until dusk, thinking in his heart: I knew that I shouldn't believe in that Taoist, so I was waiting here for nothing, maybe it would be faster to detour earlier!

"What are you thinking, sir?"

Chen Zao raised his eyes suddenly, and Lin Xu was already standing in front of him.

Chen Zao said angrily to his subordinates: "The Taoist priest is back, why don't you tell me!"

Lin Xu quickly stopped and said: "Don't blame others, the poor Taoist didn't let them talk."

Chen Zao hurriedly asked: "Master Daoist, have you solved the monster blocking the way in the mountain?"

Lin Xu said: "It's just a little demon, we can go."

Chen Zao was overjoyed, and took out a few shining ingots of silver from his waist to offer, although Lin Xu had already declined before saying no, but he had to express his sincerity.

Unexpectedly, this time, Lin Xu glanced at it and put his hand into his pocket.

Chen Zao was taken aback for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Please get in the car to rest, Taoist priest, shall we leave now?"

Lin Xu nodded, got into the car and sat down without saying a word, and even found a more comfortable place to lie down.

As the caravan began to travel, the carriage bumped.

Lin Xu looked at the silver in his hand and thought, I didn't bring much gold and silver with me, some is better than nothing.

Suddenly feeling thirsty, he asked, "Sir, do you have any wine?"

Chen Zao called someone to bring a jug of wine to Lin Xu, Lin Xu took it and drank a couple of mouthfuls, then said with a smile: "It's also good wine."

Chen Zao was on the carriage at the front of the caravan, and said: "As long as the Taoist priest likes it, there is still plenty of wine!"

"Oh? Then come up quickly!"

The caravan walked another forty miles and found a post to stay. Lin Xu also drank enough wine on the way.

When Lin Xu was about to get out of the car, he was already so drunk that he could barely stand still with Chen Zao's support.

Chen Zao said to the clerk at the station: "You take good care of this Taoist priest." After saying that, he threw a few copper coins away.

The young man took the money, stepped forward to support Lin Xu, and said in a sharp voice: "Yes."

At this moment, the night is deep.

Many strangers lived in this inn in the wilderness.

Chapter 22 Overnight at the ghost post

Chen Zao settled the accommodation of the caravan, and checked the goods again before returning to his room.

After several months of rushing, Chen Zao was already exhausted, but the business at hand was really important, so he couldn't relax at all. If it was done successfully, it would at least triple the profit.

The reason is that the eastern country of Roulai bought up the world's good trees, and even offered several times the price. If it weren't for the fact that Roulai country is too far away, it would take several years to get there. Chen Zao wanted to deliver the goods directly Rou came to the country, but considering the long and dangerous road, after several trade-offs, I decided to sell this batch of wood to some second-hand dealers, so I would make less money.

"Speaking of which, the Taoist priest is also going to the country of Roulai. I wonder if it has something to do with it?"

Chen Zao sat by the bed and thought for a while, blew out the candles on the table, and fell asleep. The cold wind made the windows rattle, and Chen Zao snored in the room.

In the middle of the night, the moon is full in the sky.

Chen Zao vaguely felt a strange noise outside the window, as if something was scratching, making a "sizzling" sound. Chen Zao, who was in his sleep, was disturbed by this sound, half asleep and half awake. Finally, he lifted the quilt and got up to check.

There are mice in this station?

Chen Zao first opened the window and looked out the door, the moonlight was shining on the ground outside, although it was night, it was clearly visible, there was no one outside, if you listen carefully, you could even hear the snoring of the grooms.

"Strange, where is the sound coming from?"

Chen Zao muttered, lit a lamp, and illuminated the four corners of the room, but there was no shadow of the mouse.

"No, my batch of wood!"

Chen Zao put on a coat and hurried to the carriage. If the goods were damaged, he might lose a lot.

When he came to the place where the carriage was parked, Chen Zao carefully checked whether there was any abnormality in the moisture-proof canvas, and found no signs of mice gnawing.

That's right, there's no way to raise mice in this barren mountain, but what is that strange noise?

Chen Zao frowned and thought, thinking that it might be rumors, and he was too tired to be suspicious.

After thinking about it, he was about to go back to the house, but he saw a black shadow walking by in front of him.

Chen Zao didn't catch up quickly, and patted the man's shoulder.

"You boy, what are you doing here so late?"

That man was a servant of the inn, Chen Zao felt that this man was very strange when he came to stay, he never raised his head to look at others, and spoke in a gloomy way, he didn't feel like a good man.

Now in the middle of the night, he ran to his own carriage and ran around again. I'm afraid he is not a thief!

The boy was caught by Chen Zao and did not speak, but put the things in his hands behind his back.

Seeing this, Chen Zao asked, "What are you hiding?"

"No." The servant lowered his head to avoid Chen Zao's gaze.

"No?" Chen Zao shouted coldly, "I saw you hiding it!" After saying that, he forcibly took out the things in the boy's hand.

That thing had an unusual stench, and it showed a pale red color under the moonlight.

That is a heart.

Chen Zao let go of his hand hastily, took half a step back trembling, and said, "This, this is?"

The boy finally raised his head, faced Chen Zao with a hair-raising smile, and said, "This is a heart."

Chen Zao secretly said in his heart, it's hard, this is a strong man.

Pretending to be calm, he said, "Of course I know it's a heart. Whose heart is it?"

The boy asked suspiciously, "Whose is it? Of course it belongs to a pig."

Chen Zao said: "Scare me to death, what are you doing with a pig's heart in the middle of the night?"

The boy said: "This thing smells bad. I'm afraid it will disturb our cleanliness during the day, so I deal with it at night."

Chen Zao said: "I see, you go."

He said to let the boy go, but it was Chen Zao who hurried all the way back to his room, and then closed the doors and windows tightly.

That boy is lying!

Chen Zao couldn't help wrapping the quilt around her body.

The blood on the heart was almost dried up and still had a stench, it had clearly been taken out for a long time, and the size was clearly a heart!

"No, I have to find those hunters, they have martial arts."

Chen Zao was about to get up, but a reflection appeared outside the window!

"Guest officer, are you asleep?"

Chen Zao froze on the spot, not daring to move, and remained silent for a long time.

"Boom boom boom!"

The black shadow outside the door knocked on the door and asked again: "Objective, are you asleep?"

It was like a death-defying curse, which made Chen Zao's mouth and tongue dry, and he exhausted all his strength to force the words out of his throat.

"I'm asleep. What's the matter with you? Let's talk about it tomorrow."

The boy outside the door said: "Guest officer, you lost something."

Chen Zao deliberately said in an impatient tone: "I told you, I fell asleep, and that thing is rewarded to you, don't bother me!"

"Hey, if that's the case, thank you, guest officer."

Hearing the boy's strange laughter, Chen Zao called for help hundreds of times in his heart, finally, he saw the figure outside the window, gradually walking away.

Chen Zao's heart sank, and he stood up again and waited, but he didn't see anyone outside the window, so he collapsed on the bed and covered the quilt with difficulty.

Perhaps, I was too tired and my eyes were out of order. It was indeed a pig's heart, and I had indeed lost something.

Chen Zao comforted himself while closing his eyes.

I closed my eyes and was about to fall asleep, when I suddenly felt as if a stone was being pressed on my body, and I couldn't move my hands and feet for a while.

Chen Zao opened his eyes suddenly, but saw the boy sitting on top of him, with the corners of his mouth bent into a strange way.

"Guest officer, you left something behind."

The servant held the heart in his hands and sent it to Chen Zao's face.

Chen Zao wanted to call for help, but his mouth seemed to be sewn shut, he couldn't make a sound, and could only shed a few tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Guest officer, your heart has fallen, and I will return it to you."

The little boy smiled, and peeled off Chen Zao's clothes with his hands, holding his heart in one hand, and the nails of the other hand stuck into Chen Zao's chest...

At night, Lin Xu was sleeping soundly on the bed, dreaming sweetly.

In the dream, Lin Xu had already cultivated to become an immortal, and he was sitting in the Heavenly Palace drinking heavily, and the people sitting below were all the gods in the sky, and everyone respected Lin Xu with a glass on the left and a glass on the right, celebrating his attainment of Taoism.

Zhen Yuanzi offered ginseng fruit, the fairies offered flat peaches, Laojun generously took out a gourd elixir, and other immortals also offered congratulatory gifts.
