By the time Taoist Chongzhun arrived at Heling Mountain, work here had been forced to stop.
The "earth dragon" saw that they were not working, so he stopped making trouble. Once there were signs of construction, he would appear again. It was really disgusting.
Taoist Chongzhun has a good relationship with Mr. Bai. When he saw Bai Yao, he treated him as his nephew. After asking about the "earth dragon", he planned to solve it.
His method was simple and straightforward, which was to directly recite scriptures and force the earth dragon hidden in the soil to come out just like he had done with the Ghost King of Yishan.
Only this time, the operation didn't go smoothly.
Although he chanted sutras, "Earth Dragon" was not greatly affected.
One is because there is not much difference in cultivation between the two sides, and the "Earth Dragon" can withstand it. The other is that this monster was only cultivated by the Great Locust Demon. He has never killed anyone at all, and has no evil powers in his body. The scriptures have influenced him. It will be much smaller.
Seeing that this method did not work, Taoist Chongzhun chose to arrange a magic circle in the vicinity.
If this monster can't break in, it can't affect the construction.
This method really worked. After realizing Taoist Chongquan's move, the two "earth dragons" split into two broke out of the ground and attacked Taoist Chongquan.
Taoist Chongzhun, who had been waiting for the opponent to make a move, immediately started fighting with him.
After two "earth dragons" fought with Taoist Chongzhun for a long time, one of them was cut into two pieces by him with his peach wood sword.
But this can't kill the opponent. The broken earth dragon turned into two shorter earth dragons.
Seeing this, Chongzhun Taoist also felt a little troubled.
This monster doesn't say it can't be beaten to death, but it keeps beating more and more, which is really a headache.
Seeing this, Bai Yao and others suggested that the monster should be caught and burned with fire.
After hearing this, Master Chongzhun felt that this suggestion was feasible and took action immediately.
It's just that the "earth dragon" is extremely slippery. After realizing the Taoist's plan, he kept using the earth escape method to avoid it, but he couldn't catch it.
After battling wits and courage with this monster for a long time, there was no solution except turning it into twelve shorter "earth dragons".
Seeing more and more monsters being beaten, Taoist Taoist Zhong felt helpless.
Even Bai Yao couldn't help but said:
"Taoist Master, why don't you just rest and we'll think of another way."
Taoist Chongzhun felt a little embarrassed on his face.
Originally full of passion, he vowed to come here to slay the demon.
Unexpectedly, it had the opposite effect, making him feel humiliated.
At this time, a soldier shouted:
"No, this monster can grow bigger!"
When everyone heard the words, they looked around and saw that the "earth dragons" who had not been attacked were all burrowing into the soil and eating something.
As they eat more, the bodies of these shorter "earth dragons" begin to grow slowly again.
If not stopped, each one may grow to the same size as the original one.
At this time, Taoist Chongzhun was really anxious and scratched his head, and continued to attack the "earth dragons".
But facing twelve "earth dragons" at the same time, they can't gain an advantage, they can just be in a stalemate.
When everyone was at a loss to do anything about the monster, they suddenly heard a loud crowing sound.
This is the cry of a rooster, which can be heard for miles.
The twelve "earth dragons" who were fighting with Taoist Chongzhun heard this sound and froze in place with fear.
Afterwards, it was obvious that these monsters were panicking, and even the Earth Escape had forgotten how to use it, and they were trying their best to burrow into the soil.
Before all the "earth dragons" had burrowed into the soil, they saw a big red rooster flying towards them in the distance, clucking and spreading its wings.
This big rooster is five feet tall. It looks majestic and full of oppression.
After arriving, he pecked directly at the "earth dragons" who wanted to escape.
With one click, an earth dragon was pecked out of the soil and swallowed in one gulp.
After eating the earth dragon, the big rooster was not satisfied and pecked it again and again.
Every one of the "earth dragons" was pecked out and swallowed.
Finally, there was an earth dragon that ran the earliest and had already hid deeper in the soil.
Then I saw the big rooster raising its paws, scratching at the ground, then scratching through the opposite side, grabbing out the last "earth dragon" and eating it in one bite.
A group of people were greatly surprised when they saw this.
But considering that the opponent is a big rooster, it is normal to easily take down a group of earthworm monsters.
Taoist Chongzhun was in a daze when he saw the battle was over.
Instead, the big rooster turned his eyes to look at the group of them and uttered a rich manly voice:
"Have you seen my son?"
These words made Taoist Chongzhun stunned:
"Your son? I wonder what your son is like?"
"It looks similar to me, but only the size of a normal cock."
"When did he disappear?"
"What happened in the past few days is that the child is playful and likes to hang out with other chickens, ducks and geese. I went to look for him two days ago and found that he was missing with a group of ducks."
After hearing what Big Rooster said, Master Chongquan understood what was going on and immediately said:
"If Pindao's guess is correct, your son is now involved in a major event to eliminate locusts."
"Locusts? I have seen some locusts recently, but they are far from a disaster. Is it a big deal?"
"It hasn't started yet, but the locust plague will appear soon."
"Oh, please tell me, Master, what is going on?"
The big cock is very concerned about his son's condition.
When speaking to a Taoist, he never hides anything, and tells the truth what he knows.
"So, they are all in Yanhua Mansion now?"
"good."
"I understand, thank you so much, Taoist priest!"
After the big rooster thanked him, he spread his wings again and flew towards Yanhua Prefecture.
A soldier looked at the big rooster's leaving figure and sighed:
“These days, even roosters can fly~~”
Another soldier said:
"Such a big cock, it must be very satisfying, right?"
Bai Yao heard this and corrected:
"This is a magical chicken that can destroy evil spirits and monsters. Please show respect and don't speak rudely."
Everyone nodded when they heard this and didn't dare to say more.
After the matters here were settled, Taoist Chongzhun didn't want to stay any longer, so he said goodbye to Bai Yao and left.
...
"Dad, what if there are so many ducks to drive away at once and there is no locust plague in the end?"
"If you don't have it, you won't have it. If you distribute these ducks to everyone, whether they are raising them or eating them, they can solve the livelihood of a large group of people. This is an excellent thing."
"Well, can I have one now?"
"No, these are all counted. If there is less, you will be punished.
You little bastard, don't let your mind wander. "
On the way to drive the ducks to Yanhua Prefecture, a child in coarse linen clothes sat on the back of a donkey. A tall man held the donkey in one hand and held a whip in the other. A large group of ducks and a small number of chickens were driven in front of him. .
This man is known as "Escort Li". He used to be an escort, and later joined Gao Xide's command. He is still responsible for escorting goods, and this time he was appointed as the escort captain.
For them, any poultry that can eat locusts is a good thing, and they will naturally buy it without any shortage.
In addition to their father and son, there were more than 300 people helping to look after him along the way.
As the person in charge of escorting this operation, this task was entrusted to him by Mr. Bai in person. He did not dare to be careless along the way. For this reason, he took his son with him.
Even though this guy is young, he is by no means a hindrance, but a great help.
His son's name was Li Chongmou, who was named by a teacher.
The reason why he chose such a name is also very simple. Li Chongmou was born with double eyes.
Moreover, unlike other people with double pupils, his double pupils are not for decoration, but actually useful.
Li Chongmou's eyesight and memory have been excellent since he was a child.
Things as thin as hair can be seen clearly from miles away.
And no matter how similar things are, as long as he sees them, he can remember them and distinguish their characteristics.
Take the duck in front of you for example. Ducks with the same appearance can't be distinguished from others.
But in Li Chongmou's eyes, every duck is different and can be clearly distinguished.
Along the way, it was only because of Li Chongmou's eyes and super memory that he didn't lose any chickens, ducks, geese, etc.
Otherwise, if more than 30,000 poultry are traveling together, some will get lost.
Li Chongmou, who was sitting on the back of a donkey and looking around, suddenly spotted a rooster among a group of chickens.
The rooster was actually looking at him.
Ordinary people would definitely not think so. At most, they would think that the rooster was looking around.
But Li Chongmou was certain that the rooster was looking at him.
Not only that, he also saw a hint of humanity in the rooster's eyes.
This made Li Chongmou suddenly excited, and he subconsciously wanted to call his father beside him to tell him about this.
But when the words came to his lips, he stopped again and chose to remain silent.
Without him, because of his special eyes, he has been able to see ghosts and the like since he was a child.
When he was a child, he told his parents that he had seen ghosts and was thought to be possessed by evil spirits. They gave him feces for treatment, but he suffered terribly.
From then on, even if he saw ghosts, he would not dare to tell his parents.
Fortunately, most of the ghosts, evil spirits and other dirty things I have seen so far are afraid of people.
If you get close to someone, you will be burned for no apparent reason.
Therefore, Li Chongmou was never afraid of these things, but was very curious about them.
This time I saw that the rooster didn't look like an ordinary rooster, so I suspected it was a monster.
Thinking of this, Li Chongmou was very excited, but he couldn't say it directly. He rolled his eyes and had an idea.
"Dad, there's a rooster over there that seems to be sick. I'll go take a look!"
The escort Li had great faith in his son's eyesight. Since he said that the rooster was sick, it must be sick.
"Okay, go and see it!"
After receiving the permission, Li Chongmou was very happy. He got off the donkey's back and jumped towards the rooster.
When the rooster saw him coming straight towards him, a look of panic flashed in his eyes. He lowered his head and pretended to be like other chickens, looking for food while walking.
If it were anyone else, it would be extremely difficult to accurately find one rooster among a bunch of roosters.
But for Li Chongmou, it was no problem at all and he went straight to the rooster.
The rooster didn't expect that the other party could recognize him like this, so he quickly took steps and scurried among a group of chickens, ducks and geese, intending to blend in so that the other party could not find him.
But alas, the rooster's approach makes no sense.
However, Li Chongmou found him and held him in his arms.
"Hey, let me catch you!"
When caught by the opponent, the rooster just moved and pecked, acting like a normal rooster.
Li Chongmou held his head down and said in his ear:
"Don't move, or I will tell others that you are a monster, and then I will stew you and eat you!"
The rooster heard this and did not dare to move again.
"Okay, this is right!"
Seeing that the other party was obedient, Li Chongmou nodded with satisfaction.
"Don't worry, as long as you don't make trouble, I won't tell anyone else!"
He was telling the truth. After all, most people would not believe that a rooster could become a sperm. If they were treated as possessed by evil spirits and force-fed feces...
Caught by Li Chongmu, the cock drooped its head, looking listless.
The former, on the other hand, returned to his father with a rooster in his arms in a cheerful manner.
Li, the escort, saw that the rooster he was holding was very limp, so he confirmed that it was indeed a sick rooster.
Li Chongmou held the rooster and sat on the donkey's back, whispering to the rooster quietly.
After talking for a while, let go and let the rooster go on its own.
The rooster seemed to be holding its fate. It did not run away as soon as it was let go. It just stood on the donkey's head and looked around without energy.
Li Chongmou felt happy in his heart, and he felt excited when he thought that he had caught a spermed rooster.
I was already thinking about chatting with this rooster again when no one was around at night.
