Li Chuan thanked Old Man Lin.
During the chat, he revealed his intention to abandon worldly affairs and devote himself to studying. He said that in order to get up early, he borrowed a big rooster from a friend, and he would listen to the rooster to study in the future.
While praising Li Chuan for his ambition, Old Man Lin thought about it and asked, "Then this land can't be left uncultivated. It would be such a pity."
Li Chuan felt that instead of giving the land to people he didn't know, it would be better to give it to Old Man Lin's family, who had been neighbors for many years and knew everything about it.
After saying that, they agreed on the terms. From now on, Old Man Lin's family will farm Li Chuan's land.
The harvest was 46 points, and Li Chuan was 6 points old.
After the conversation, both of them were very happy. Old man Lin remembered something again and said, "Speaking of roosters, a chicken thief appeared in Yunqiao Township recently."
"Chicken thief?" Li Chuan thought of the chicken that was lost at Carpenter Liu's house a few months ago. He said, "I know that the rooster was stolen from Carpenter Liu's house. He suspected that it was stolen by his neighbor Wang's family, and they got into a fight."
"It was very early. What I'm talking about is that in the past half month, chickens from several families have been stolen. The ones I know include the Sang family, the Hu family, and..." Old Man Lin said continuously. "Someone stayed up for several nights in order to catch the chicken thief. It turned out that he was not a human being, but a monster, a monster that specializes in stealing chickens."
"Monster? What kind?" Li Chuan was curious.
Old man Lin said: "I heard it was a nine-headed vicious dog. It was so powerful that all the men in the Hu family were scratched."
Nine heads, sounds scary.
Seeing Li Chuan's expression, Old Man Lin comforted him and said, "You said you borrowed a rooster, so I'll tell you that it's best to put the chicken in a cage when you go to bed at night. You are a scholar in the town, and you are a pure scholar." With Yang protecting your body, monsters should not dare to come to your place."
Li Chuan thanked Old Man Lin, and when he returned home, he told Gong Er Pang San about the nine-headed evil dog, and asked, "Do you know this monster?"
Gonger shook his head, "I've never heard of it. Is it a new monster?"
The next person said: "There is a dog demon near the stone bridge. Could it be her?"
Gong Er repeatedly denied, "It's impossible, it's impossible. She has a great personality and has never hurt anyone. How could she be a chicken thief?"
After asking nothing, Li Chuan told them to be careful and practice well.
The next few days passed peacefully.
After Gong Er Pang San passed through Xuan Shui Mountain, he was very eager to improve his strength. He practiced or practiced every day. Every time Li Chuan wanted to use a pot to move them out, he would be stared at by two pairs of resentful eyes. Li Chuan was embarrassed to cook, but when he was eating, he still refused to give in and did not reduce his appetite at all.
They also told Li Chuan that they would go to Si Shen Temple to listen to sermons when winter came, and Li Chuan naturally agreed.
Seeing Gong Er and Pang San working so hard, Li Chuan also wanted to make progress.
In which direction should we strive for progress?
Really go to school? So sleepy, forget it.
Study the "Pattern Sutra"? I can’t understand it, I still can’t understand it, and without the help of the red light in the secret realm, when I try to enter the mysterious state, I fail five or six times out of ten. Li Chuan is probably because he has lost his vitality and is too weak. As a result, I eat and sleep better.
Chatting with a mouse? After that day, the mouse disappeared without a trace and could not be heard no matter how loud it was. If I hadn't accidentally discovered him stealing food, I would have thought he had run away.
Thinking about it, Zhu Qingyun and Lao laughed again. They wondered if they had arrived in the capital, and what kind of disturbance would be caused by the death of the two big demons.
…
At this time, Zhu Qingyun had returned to Qintian Prison. She told her master Gong Wuguang everything that happened on Xuanshui Mountain.
After some grooming, she seemed to have regained her energy, but her hair was still bald. If you look closely, you can see that hair has already sprouted out, but it will probably take some time for it to grow completely?
Gong Wuguang sat on the Eight Immortals Chair and listened quietly to Zhu Qingyun's story. He waited until she had finished speaking before starting to ask questions.
"Do you think there's something wrong with that secret realm?"
"Yes, it's very weird," Zhu Qingyun replied: "I felt a clear killing intent from that sword intention, and Su Xiang also made me feel very uncomfortable that day."
"I didn't expect that a Frost Leaf relic would cause so many things," Gong Wuguang said with a relaxed expression. "I will send someone to investigate Xunhua's matter. If it is true, let the Frost Leaf relic be released. You return to Xuanshui Mountain as soon as possible, contact the local government, and carry out demon suppression. Don't let the remnants of the black-horned monster come out to harm the people. .”
"Understood!" Zhu Qingyun understood the pros and cons.
"I will also leave soon to meet you."
"Yes." Zhu Qingyun replied.
"What kind of person do you think he is when you come across the heir of "The Classic of Patterns"?" Gong Wuguang asked.
Zhu Qingyun replied: "Very brave, very bold, and very greedy for life and afraid of death."
…
That night, after Li Chuan had dinner, he felt that lighting candles was expensive, so he went to bed early to rest.
After half a night's sleep, he heard the crow of a rooster, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, crowing, and he was upset. He opened the quilt, put on his shoes and walked out, intending to have a good argument with Gong Er. When I walked out, I saw a small black shadow running up the wall and escaping.
Gong Er, on the other hand, held his head high and looked very proud.
Li Chuan asked: "What's going on? A chicken thief?"
Gong Er said: "I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly felt something tugging on my hair. When I opened my eyes, I saw it was a little little demon that was still in its infancy. I roared twice and scared it away. ”
Could it be that the Nine-Headed Evil Dog is just a puppy?
Seeing that Li Chuan's expression was not very good, Gong Er asked, "Brother, do you want me to capture him?"
Li Chuan was woken up while he was sleeping soundly. He had a headache. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "No, you've already beaten him away. I'm afraid he won't dare to come back." He looked around and asked, " Where is the third brother?"
Gong Er said: "The third brother went to practice by the stream. He prefers to practice in the flowing water."
Li Chuan waited, but there was no other movement, so he said, "I'll go back and lie down for a while, and you can rest as well."
With that said, Li Chuan went back to the room, covered his head and continued to sleep.
As soon as I regained some sleepiness, I heard the rooster crow again, crowing, crowing, crowing, and then there was a sound of pinging bells, which was quite lively.
Li Chuan lifted up the quilt and walked out. This time he saw two black shadows running up the wall and running out. The yard was in a mess.
When Gong Er saw Li Chuan coming, he quickly said: "The vicious dog just now is here again, and he also brought a helper. Don't worry, brother, I beat them away again. This time, they will definitely not dare to come again."
