The Roaring Sky Dog crawled on the ground and whimpered twice. His eyes looked at Lin Fan with fear, and he didn't dare to take action.
Lin Fan snorted softly and said calmly: "You are a beast that has no understanding of human nature. How can you survive in this world full of monsters?"
As he spoke, he pretended to reach out and explore his arms, then took out a big bone and threw it to Roaring Sky Dog.
"Eat, leave early after eating, don't stay in the desert."
Dogs are dogs after all, and they will wag their tails happily when they see a bone.
In the tavern, Yang Jian, the Erlang Shen, looked at his pet dog without any sense of shame. He was bribed by a big bone. He was so angry that he punched the pillar of the room.
"This beast, if a dog can't change its habit of eating shit, I will kill you and make stew on you!"
Upon hearing this, the four heavenly kings smiled brightly and agreed one after another.
"Okay, okay, I've been meaning to do this for a long time."
Yang Jian's words were originally angry, but they revealed the sincerity of the four heavenly kings.
He glared at his four subordinates fiercely. Seeing that no one dared to look at him, he snorted softly:
"This boy should be a mortal warrior who can deal with low-level demons. His strength is not a concern. The most important thing is to capture Fairy Zixia. Don't slack off!"
"Follow the true king's decree!"
The four heavenly kings were shocked and hurriedly bowed to accept the order.
Time flies by.
The north wind is howling, the desert is blowing up sand, and flags are flying, but the tavern is like a paradise, unaffected in the slightest.
Lin Fan placed a table of food and wine on a dilapidated wooden table in the courtyard of the tavern, and drank leisurely.
The four heavenly kings in the room were drooling at the sight, and they were cursing secretly in their hearts.
I wish I could take my place and eat and drink.
At this moment, in the wind and sand outside the tavern, a stunning woman walked slowly, holding a purple-green sword and leading a donkey.
The woman is wearing a bright red dress with a white veil over her head.
The clothes are fluttering, like a dream.
When she entered the courtyard, her eyes first fell on the big calf-sized dog, which was gnawing on a big bone with a look of enjoyment.
Next to the big dog, a young man who looked like a peerless young man was enjoying the food leisurely.
The woman snorted softly and proudly raised her fair and delicate neck.
"Dogs are like wolves, humans are not immortals, interesting."
When she spoke, Lin Fan across from him also raised his head from the table of delicious food.
He was not surprised when he saw the woman, he just stretched out his hand and invited her to sit down.
"The best daughter red, want a drink?"
The stunning woman sat opposite Lin Fan and looked at him intently.
After a long while, he doubtfully picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
As soon as the spicy and sweet wine entered her throat, her eyes widened.
“Really delicious!”
"Then have another drink."
Lin Fan smiled gently.
If it weren't for the sword stuck sideways in his hand, he would be more like a Confucian scholar.
After three or four glasses of wine, the stunning woman's delicate cheeks were stained with a blush, and her eyes became blurred.
She shook her head drunkenly and said to herself: "Wine is good wine.
The taste of drunkenness is too unpleasant!”
After saying that, she raised her head, raised her eyebrows slightly, and gave Lin Fan a toothy smile.
"Hey, scholar. Thank you for the wine!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she gently raised her delicate hand and used her magic power to force out the essence of the wine from her fingertips.
Seeing this scene, Lin Fan exclaimed that it was a pity and couldn't help but shake his head.
The stunning woman was slightly surprised when she saw this, and couldn't help but ask: "What's the pity?"
Lin Fan chuckled and replied: "In this world, beauty and wine are the only things that cannot be let down. Isn't it the most regrettable thing in the world for the best wine to fall on the dirty sand?"
The woman was slightly startled, then nodded in understanding.
Her name is Zixia, originally a wick.
The wick has no heart, let alone the feelings of the world.
She is here to find love.
While the two were talking, the old tavern owner, or Erlang Shen Yang Jian, was lighting a fire inside and outside, trying to light an oil lamp in the house.
I tried several times but failed.
Zixia was curious, looked sideways and found that there was no wick in the oil lamp!
Her heart tightened, her voice turned cold, and she spoke.
"Hey, shopkeeper! Your oil lamp has no wick, how can you light it?"
The old shopkeeper with a rickety figure frowned, turned around and said with a bitter smile: "Yes, as a girl, what should I do?"
"There is no wick, so just buy a new one."
Zixia stood up, held the purple-green sword in her arms, and stared at the store.
"Hey, if the mortal wick is gone, you can buy another one. But if the Buddha's wick is gone, where can you buy it?"
Hearing this, Fairy Zixia snorted and sneered: "You really have a problem!"
As she finished her last word, a burst of smoke rose in the tavern, and the rickety old shopkeeper revealed his true identity in an instant.
Wearing armor, wearing precious boots, and holding a three-pointed, two-edged spear, he looked majestic and mighty.
Behind him, Mo Liqing and the other four people also revealed their true bodies and stared at Zixia with ferocious faces.
"Scholar, this is not the place for you to stay. If there is a war later, I'm afraid it will affect you. For the sake of the wine you just gave me, I will lend you my donkey."
Zixia was not in a hurry to start a fight with Erlang Shen and others. Instead, she turned around, smiled at Lin Fan, and pointed at the donkey she had led when she came.
Lin Fan was still sitting on the chair, motionless.
But the corners of his mouth curved into a vague arc.
He was not in a hurry, but Zixia was a little anxious.
"Hey, you scholar, why don't you leave quickly! Do you know who these five are?"
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, may I ask, girl, who are they?"
"Those four ugly men are the four heavenly kings Qing, Hai, Hong and Shou who guard the Nantianmen. They are also the powerful generals of King Tota and are known as the gods of war in heaven! Are you afraid?"
Zixia had good intentions in her heart, and for the sake of the fine wine just now, she wanted to save this mortal from a disaster.
But who would have thought that the other party didn't care at all, which made her feel a little unhappy.
Thinking of this, she deliberately made Erlang Shen and others more powerful.
I want to scare the mortal scholar in front of me.
"Afraid?"
Lin Fan smiled disdainfully, poured himself a glass of wine, raised the glass and drank it leisurely.
"I have traversed the three realms, drank countless blood with the sword in my hand, and killed many people. Not to mention the four heavenly kings, I have never been afraid of the Jade Emperor even if I am here!"
As soon as these words came out, Zixia was so shocked that she was stunned.
Mo Liqing and others even shouted loudly.
"Be bold!"
The steel whip in Mo Lishou's hand was pointed at Lin Fan, "Hey, arrogant mortals, don't talk nonsense! Offending the Jade Emperor is a crime that will punish the nine tribes!"
On the other hand, Erlang Shen Yang Jian narrowed his eyes slightly and did not make a sound.
Erlang Shen's biological mother is the Jade Emperor's sister.
In other words, he is the Jade Emperor's nephew.
However, the Jade Emperor was so hard-hearted that he suppressed his sister, who had a mortal heart and wanted to marry a mortal, under the Peach Mountain.
Later, Erlang Shen developed a skill and cut down mountains to save his mother.
But in the end, he still failed to defeat the Jade Emperor's decree and failed to save the birth mother.
This incident has since become a thorn in his heart, even though he doesn't say it.
However, I have always been reluctant to recognize the Jade Emperor as my uncle.
On weekdays, I only practice in my own dojo, listening to the tunes but not the instructions.
The purpose of capturing Fairy Zixia this time was just to repay Buddha for his guidance in the early years.
