for evil

"Daozhang, this is the place." The old village chief who led the way said to Chen Ye tremblingly.

"The poor Taoist knows. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, so leave as soon as you have nothing to do."

A group of people were eager to hear this sentence, and turned to leave.The old village head who took the lead took two steps, then walked back tremblingly, and said earnestly: "This monster comes and goes without a trace, it is very secretive, Taoist leader must be careful."

Chen Ye flicked the whisk, and said very solemnly: "Leave it to the poor Taoist, the benefactor can rest assured."

The old village chief nodded, saluted Chen Ye, and then dragged the villagers who came along with him and disappeared without a trace. Even his old cold legs, which he yelled all the way when he came, seemed to heal without medicine.

The sun was about to set in the west, and a halo of yellow shrouded the entire forest.

Chen Ye carefully observed the surrounding environment: at the moment, he is located in a lush forest in Zhaoyao Mountain. According to the nearby villagers, it was here that he saw the monster for the last time.

Speaking of this monster, the old village head of Dushan Village who was over 80 years old cried and went blind.

Dushan Village is located at the foot of Zhaoyao Mountain. It lives by the mountain and relies on the mountain, so it is named Dushan Village.It is also the nearest village to Zhaoyao Mountain.

"The villagers of Dushan Village have been down-to-earth and honest people for generations. They have never done any heinous things. How could they provoke real evil animals? There has been no peace since then!" When he first entered the village, the old village head pulled Chen Ye hand, crying with snot and tears, Chen Ye frowned, watching himself newly put on a plain white Taoist robe, which was mottled by the old village chief's crying.

In fact, the matter is far from as serious as the old village chief said.

According to the villagers, the first time they discovered the existence of the monster was two months ago, and it was a cripple named Zhang Laoer who discovered him.

At that time, the peaches in Zhang Laoer’s backyard had just ripened. This year’s weather was good, and the peaches were twice as big as usual. The branches were covered with huge, brightly colored fruits, which made Zhang Laoer laugh from ear to ear. .Picking off the biggest ones, the first thing Zhang Laoer thought of was Widow Liu who lived next door to him.

"Widow Liu is really pitiful. When she first married into the Liu family, her husband died of illness. Widow Liu was left alone sadly. It's a pity that Widow Liu has such a beautiful face. But the second child is also, I have long said that he is a pervert Embryo, just after he lost his spouse, he wanted to post it. He greeted him every day to bring water and food for him, and he was very affectionate. A few days ago, I saw Widow Liu cooked and sent it to Zhang Lao Er. Zhang Lao Er That mouth is almost grinning to the ear..."

Chen Ye covered his mouth with clenched fists and coughed: "Cough! This... benefactor, time is limited, can I trouble you to talk about monsters?"

The eloquent villager smiled embarrassedly: "We just don't know what to say, Daoist, please take care of me."

Let's talk about this second child, who washed the picked peaches again and again, washing the already good peaches to make them more attractive, and put them in a wooden basin on the side.Just about to change clothes to take to Widow Liu next door, when I turned around, a wooden basin full of peaches suddenly disappeared, leaving only the empty wooden basin...

Apart from making Zhang Lao Er cry for two days, this matter did not make the villagers pay too much attention.

Until later, more and more people in the village lost things: watermelons, apples, pears... especially peaches and bananas, the most missing.

Chen Ye asked the village chief: "So, this monster doesn't steal anything but fruits?"

The grey-haired old village head looked pitiful and barking again: "Although the fruit harvest this year is good, the fruit that was planted with great difficulty disappeared suddenly when I just wanted to eat it. The old man is over 80 years old, and he has to hide if he wants to eat a peach." Is it easy to eat under the quilt?"

Chen Ye sneered, shaking his whisk: "This monster... is really hateful..." He asked again: "What does a monster look like?"

The villagers looked at me and I looked at you, but no one made a sound.

The old village chief sighed, and said, "That monster is not only extremely fast, but also good at hiding. So far, no one knows what he looks like."

It made Chen Ye slightly worried.

The village chief said: "The Taoist priest is reassuring. Although we all don't know the appearance of that evildoer, we know his hiding place."

According to the village head, there is a hunter surnamed Wu in the village who often goes hunting in Zhaoyao Mountain.At noon that day, Wu Orion was sitting in the forest to rest, when suddenly a strong wind blew up for no reason.With the sudden wind blowing, Wu Orion's spirit was tense, and he couldn't help but think of the books about the mountain elves and wild monsters he had heard before.Just thinking about it, from the corner of the eye, he saw a black shadow shaking slightly behind the tree three feet away from him...

Perhaps because of fear, or perhaps because of years of hunting instinct, Wu Orion immediately picked up a bow and arrow and shot at the shadow... Based on Wu Orion's experience, no matter what it is, it probably won't be able to escape.But when it ran towards the tree, it didn't see any prey, only an arrow stuck in the tree and apples scattered on the ground... Then Wu Orion remembered the monster who stole things that was rumored in the village before, For a while, cold sweat drenched his back.With a stiff body, he bowed to the surroundings: "This monster... Ancestor, I didn't mean to offend, I don't know if it's your master, please don't be offended..." Then he ran back home in a hurry, had a high fever for three days, and was still in a daze. Shouting: "Ancestor monster, please forgive me... Ancestor monster, please forgive me..."

Chen Ye thought to himself, this Orion probably got sick from being frightened by himself, what is he doing to other monsters?

Continue to ask the village chief: "Are you sure that is his lair?"

"Although I'm not sure, it's probably not far from there."

Chen Ye asked: "This monster doesn't seem to have done anything to harm the sky, why is everyone so afraid of him?"

The village chief said: "The Taoist chief doesn't know something. My villager in Dushan is simple and unsophisticated. I have been blessed by my ancestors. I have never seen any ghosts and strange things since ancient times. Now that I see this monster, I will be frightened and uneasy. That's why I invited you here." Daoist."

Chen Ye nodded: "Pin Dao understands."

Therefore, Chen Ye was brought to Zhaoyao Mountain by the villagers.

There are many osmanthus trees in the swaggering mountain, and this season is in full bloom, with dense green leaves and thousands of yellow flowers.Small golden flowers hang all over the branches, and the sweet smell lingers in the mountains.

The breeze was blowing, and the tip of the nose and throat seemed to be filled with a delicate fragrance.

Chen Ye loves sweet-scented osmanthus, especially the hanging flower cake, a soft and fluffy bite, paired with the green tea from Muqing Palace, it is a great pleasure.

It's a pity that at this time, he needs to solve the matter in front of him first.

Chen Ye narrowed his eyes and pinched a trick, and made a point between his eyebrows, carefully inspecting the surrounding atmosphere, but did not find anything wrong.

He remembered what the village chief said at that time, that the monster might indeed be in other places nearby, so he investigated the nearby forests, but found nothing strange.

Chen Ye comforted himself calmly, until he searched the area ten miles up and down, and found no trace of the monster's aura.

It was already late at night, and Chen Ye sat on an old tree stump panting, trying to figure out what the old village chief said, and found that it meant "only in this mountain, and the clouds are deep."He wiped the bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead, wondering if he was cheated by others?Why is it that if you see the monster in Fuyao Mountain, you must be in Fuyao Mountain?Maybe people just come here to have fun?

There was a chill in the mountains at night, Chen Ye wrapped his Taoist robe tightly, feeling sorry for himself alone.

Maybe it was because of exhaustion, Chen Ye dozed off in a daze.

Suddenly, a loud snoring woke him up.

Chen Ye wiped the two lines of clear tears from the freeze, followed the sound of snoring tremblingly and in a daze, wanting to see who didn't have eyes.

After walking straight for a distance of about seven trees, I saw a huge laurel plant, four feet high, with dots of yellow flowers all over the branches.

A full moon hangs in the sky, without the lights of thousands of families in the world, the moonlight in the mountains is more clear and bright.

The moonlight shines on the laurel branches, which is so beautiful that it is not like the world, but it is more like the laurel plant on the bank of Guanghan, which is independent of the world.

On a branch of a laurel tree one foot high, a man in a black robe was lying on his side hugging the branch, his hair not tied up, and his half-length black hair fluttering in the wind.The moonlight shone on his body through the branches of the tree, making his face even more handsome.

He looked young, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and his wanton sleeping position had a kind of uninhibitedness unique to teenagers.At this time, his eyes were slightly closed, and there was a smile on his lips, while he was still poking his mouth, as if he was still dreaming of a gluttonous dream.

Everything seemed quiet and beautiful.

Of course, if he can ignore his snoring, which is as loud as a lion's roar at this time...
