"what sound?"
In the backyard of Jingxin Temple, a young novice who was cleaning the courtyard with a broom suddenly heard a strange scream coming from the mountain behind him. He couldn't help but stop what he was doing and turned his head to look over there.
"Senior Brother Huixin, there won't be any wild animals in the back mountain, right?"
At this time, another little novice monk in the courtyard also heard the sound. Perhaps because he was still young, he immediately trembled with fright and hurried to the side of his senior brother, with a pair of small eyes filled with fear.
"I...I heard from my master that there are tigers on the mountain behind."
"Nonsense, how can there be a tiger here?! Maybe it's the sound of the wind. I'll go take a look."
The little novice monk known as Huixin was a little flustered when he heard the word tiger, but he couldn't act too timid in front of his junior brothers, so he had to hold the broom in his hand tightly and cautiously leaned towards the back door.
The back door of Jingxin Temple is not big. Because it leads to the back mountain, it is rarely opened on weekdays. The door beams are covered with spider webs.
Using a broom to brush away the spider webs and drive away the big yellow and black spider, the two of them walked to the backyard door cautiously and listened attentively.
Outside, the strange sound of howling has disappeared, leaving only the rustling of leaves in the wind.
"No sound!"
After listening for a while, Huixin swallowed hard and did not open the door bolt. She just pulled the door inward so that a crack was exposed, allowing the two of them to look out.
Looking outside the door through this gap, everything outside was as usual, nothing was out of the ordinary.
"Maybe it is indeed the sound of strong wind..." After looking for a long time, they found nothing unusual. Just when the two of them were relieved, thinking that they had heard wrongly, they were about to go back.
Suddenly, a big furry face appeared outside the gate with a "swipe"!
Staring blankly at this big face, at this moment, the two teenage novices felt like something was broken in their brains! A moment later, two sharp screams suddenly sounded!
"ah……"
"Ahhhh..."
Accompanied by ear-piercing screams, there were ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong, and jingling sounds coming from the door, as if someone had fled.
Outside the door, Liu Hongji stared and scratched his head strangely.
What's the meaning? Could it be that he is Zhu Bajie? Just calling the door can scare people half to death?
"Hey, we are not bad people, we are passing merchants, passing by Paosha, and want to use the expensive place to wash up and have a rest!"
Regardless, before Xiao Han and the others came here, Liu Hongji roared at the top of his lungs.
Even to the death, he couldn't admit that he had scared people away, otherwise Xiao Han's poisonous tongue might have arranged something for him.
The roar gradually died down, but at this time, the door was already quiet, and there was no sound.
"Are you really scared away?"
Staring at the closed door, Liu Hongji did not believe in evil and shouted at the top of his lungs, but it was still his nephew who lit the lantern, as usual!
"Hey, never mind! Let's go in first! We'll explain after we meet someone." Rolling his eyes, Liu Hongji was about to kick the door open when Xiao Han, who was on the mountain road behind him, suddenly screamed and seemed to have run away too much. Quick, I twisted my foot.
"Ouch! This idiot!"
Liu Hongji, who had already raised his feet, heard the sound and turned around to see Xiao Han sitting on the ground in pain. He immediately slapped his thigh and ran towards Xiao Han without even bothering to kick the door.
However, as luck would have it, just as Liu Hongji ran away, a burst of noisy footsteps happened to come from the temple.
"Where? Where are the monsters?"
In the temple, a group of bare-headed monks carrying sticks, kitchen knives, tables and stools hurried towards the backyard. When they arrived at the backyard, a burly monk at the head stopped, glanced around first, and then asked Huixin with a stern face. .
Huixin's little face was full of horror, and most of her body was hidden behind the masters, leaving only her little head outside.
"Master of the prison, the monster is behind the door, with a big head and howling!"
"Yes, it screams really scary!"
"Behind the door?"
Hearing Hui Xin and another young novice monk's complaints, the burly monk frowned and casually pointed to his side: "Go! Open the door!"
"Ah?" The monk who was named was stunned. He didn't expect that he would be shot while he was lying down. He was about to say "I don't dare", but then he saw the burly monk's gloomy gaze. He was so frightened that he quickly shut his mouth. , carefully holding the stick and walking towards the back door step by step.
One step, two steps...
Seeing that the stick in his hand was about to reach the door bolt, suddenly, in the monk's confused eyes, the closed door automatically moved without wind!
The next second, the arm-thick wooden bolt on the door broke into several pieces and flew towards him!
"ah……"
"Bang!!!"
The monk just screamed, but before he could protect his head and face, the strong door opened! Behind the gate, along with a puff of smoke, a monster with two legs, four hands, and two heads appeared in front of him.
"Monster!"
Huixin, who was already frightened, screamed strangely when she saw this scene, then rolled her eyes and fainted.
And before the other monks had time to see clearly, they were frightened out of their wits by this voice! One by one, they dropped their sticks and ran back like crazy like headless flies.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
Among all the people in the backyard, the burly monk was the most calm. Although he was startled at first, when he calmed down, he immediately realized that this was not a monster at all, but just a strong man carrying a young man on his back.
"This is……"
At the door, Liu Hongji and Xiao Han were dumbfounded at this time. They did not expect it to be like this. They looked at the messy backyard and stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.
Just now, Xiao Han sprained his foot while running here. As a good friend, Liu Hongji was angry and anxious!
Seeing that his ankles and neck were swollen, and just when he didn't know what to do, he suddenly remembered this place. Since this temple is so large, it must be equipped with medicinal materials to treat bruises!
So, the impatient Liu Hongji couldn't help but put Xiao Han on his back and ran here!
Moreover, having learned the lesson from calling the door last time, he didn’t call the door this time, and directly smashed the door bolt with his kick. Unexpectedly, as soon as the door opened, he saw a group of bald heads, and when these bald heads saw him, they immediately saw him. Like a ghost, running around like a madman.
"Don't monks catch ghosts? Why..." Seeing a monk panicking and bumping into a pagoda, knocking himself unconscious, Liu Hongji immediately gasped as if he had a toothache, knocking himself out like this. Brutal strength, he asked himself, he didn't have it.
"It's not that you are too ugly, you are uglier than ghosts~" Xiao Han said quietly on Liu Hongji's back.
