The village chief sent two young and strong villagers to guide them.
Su Qingyu and Bai Huo walked behind, talking quietly in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.
Bai Huo said with some confusion: "It's weird, why did that monkey suddenly go crazy just now?"
Su Qingyu whispered: "I saw a little black hair on the monkey's paws, and the village is slowly being eroded."
"But the monkey did behave very docilely at the beginning."
"The monkey started going crazy when it smelled Yingluo. Don't forget, we put the monkey god's bones into Yingluo's body..."
Bai Huo pondered for a moment: "What the girl said makes sense. The monkey's madness should be related to the bones of the monkey god."
The villagers took the two of them to the monkey temple.
"You can go in."
Several villagers joined forces and pushed the door of the Monkey Temple open a small crack.
As the villagers were preparing to leave, one of the young men wearing a black coat muttered: "Even if it is to repay a favor, these outsiders should not be allowed in."
Su Qingyu had better hearing. He immediately grabbed the wrist of the young man who was about to leave and asked: "Brother, couldn't your village allow outsiders to come in before?"
The young man in a black coat was startled. He looked Su Qingyu up and down and said with a straight face: "Don't ask me, I won't talk to outsiders like you."
"But you just said it."
The young man's eyes widened slightly: "I did that to tell you that I won't talk to you."
"You've said it again now." Su Qingyu raised her two fingers with a crooked eyebrow, "You've already said it twice."
"..."
The young man immediately covered his mouth and glared angrily.
Bai Huo politely bowed to the young man, and then asked in a gentle voice: "Young Master, we have no ill intentions, we just have some questions that we would like to ask you for advice."
The young man put down his hand covering his mouth, not looking at Su Qingyu, but focused his eyes on Bai Huo, and asked: "Why do you speak so politely? I think you are dressed like a Taoist priest, right?"
Baihuo announced to his family: "I am the disciple of Zhixu Sanren."
The young man's attitude softened instantly. He clapped his hands and said, "So you are the disciple of that Taoist priest. The flood has really washed away the Dragon King Temple. One family doesn't know the other. I'm just saying, the old village chief today Suddenly he said he was going to meet a guest. It turned out to be because of the old Taoist priest.
It seems that because your master saved our village, I will tell you that our village generally does not welcome outsiders. Several forest rangers came here before and said they wanted to do some work, but they ended up everywhere in the whole village. Wandering around, talking nonsense, and rummaging through things, he offended the monkey god and caused widespread death of monkeys in the village, which was annoying to death. "
This village seems very exclusive.
The young man's words were full of ridicule and disgust, and he continued: "Those forest rangers actually said that monkeys are pollution. Isn't it funny?
It was your master who helped us save those monkeys, so the people in our village are very grateful to your master.
I would like to remind you that if you want to stay in this village longer, you must sincerely believe in the Monkey God, and the Monkey God will keep you safe. "
"Thank you, sir."
The young man bared his teeth and rubbed the goosebumps on his body: "Brother, don't call me Young Master, it's very strange."
"Okay, thank you, little brother." Bai Huo changed his tune quickly, "I still have questions, and I would like to ask my little brother to answer them for me."
"Just tell me, I will tell you if I know." Although the young man thought Bai Huo spoke strangely, he also felt that Bai Huo was very polite and did not look like a bad person.
Bai Huo asked: "Where is my master now?"
The young man raised his hand, pointed to the Monkey Temple behind them, and said, "I live in the temple. Didn't your master tell you?"
"Master, he took the first step, and I didn't know about it."
Su Qingyu turned around.
This monkey temple is much larger than the temples in the previous villages.
The gate of the Monkey Temple alone is three meters high. Tall stone pillars surround the temple. On both sides of the gate stand stone statues of monkeys, solemn and solemn.
Above the temple door, a huge monkey statue is lifelike. It leans down with a kind face and seems to be staring at everything in the temple.
The young man shrugged: "If you want to see your master, you have to go in and find it yourself. This monkey temple was built by all the villagers in our village. It has forty or fifty guest rooms. , I don’t know which room your master lives in.”
"We will look for it ourselves, so we won't bother my little brother."
"Then I won't disturb your master-disciple reunion." The young man waved his hand and left.
The huge stone door of the Monkey Temple only opened a gap that one person could enter, and it was pitch black inside. The two of them walked in and saw legends about the Monkey God carved on the walls on both sides.
"Bai Huo, look at the walls on both sides. That Taoist priest is your master, right?" Su Qingyu pointed to the mural on the wall, "Your master is also a legendary figure."
Bai Huo sighed softly: "Miss Su, the closer I get to Master, the stranger I feel Master." He placed his fingers as white as ice and snow on his heart, "My heart hesitated."
He is afraid that he will face the truth that subverts his knowledge.
Master is the light he once was.
And he was afraid that the light in his memory would go out.
"Don't be afraid. The situation of Diedie is somewhat similar to that of your master. There are secrets hidden in her body and even her parents, but none of this prevents me from loving her."
"Wouldn't you be sad if she wasn't what you remember?"
"Yes, but I still like her." Su Qingyu turned her head and looked at Bai Huo, "I hope that Diedie's family will be well. If she is still the same person, I will be grateful. If she is not... people's hearts can't just be Carrying a feeling, I cherish her very much, but at the same time I feel sad for her..."
It is easy to persuade others.
It will be difficult when things fall on one's own head.
She was even a little naive, willing to believe that even if Zhuang Xiaodie turned weird, he would not harm her. Before Zhuang Xiaodie left, he sent her a message asking her not to look for him. She felt that she was equally important in Diedie's heart.
Bai Huo showed a relieved smile: "Indeed, Master is real to me. He is as kind as a mountain to me. I can't completely cut off this master-disciple relationship.
Hate and love can exist at the same time. Even if the truth disappoints me, it doesn't matter. He is my most respected master. "
Similarly, if Zhixu Sanren's actions endanger humanity, it does not prevent Bai Huo from killing him with love on his back.
"Will you do it?" Bai Huo asked vaguely, but Su Qingyu knew what he meant.
Su Qingyu was silent for a moment and replied: "If you ask me now, I don't know. I will only have the answer when the matter comes to pass."
As Su Qingyu said, the human heart cannot only carry one emotion.
There is also a kind of knife.
It's called having to do something when things come to a close.
Bai Huo, on the other hand, looked at the dark road ahead expressionlessly and said calmly: "I can."
