Chapter 325
Fanwai 17 update congratulatory message does not affect the main text
This time Daqin narrowly won, although he paid a very high price, he won in the end, and the Tiger Demon King had to bow his head.
And now these monster cubs in Honglu Temple who are shrunk in the house and dare not see people are the evidence that the Tiger Demon King bowed his head. This really made everyone in Daqin heave a sigh of relief, thinking that the monster country is nothing special, look Seeing the prestige for so many years, didn't he still lose in the end?
It is said to be Honglu Temple, but in fact it is just that the people above just randomly found a house in the poorest, dirtiest and messiest place in the capital.
However, there were quite a few Taoist soldiers staring openly and secretly at the three floors outside and the three floors outside. If the monster cubs inside had any bad intentions, they would definitely be unable to escape.
"Damn, staring at those things every day, when will it be a head." Dao Bing let out a sigh of relief, rubbed his hands, and changed his posture carefully.
Cao Xianfeng immediately looked over and said in a low voice, "Speak carefully!"
His face was also very ugly.
These Taoist soldiers are one in a thousand masters. They should be stationed in the border town, killing monsters and making achievements, instead of squatting here hiding their heads and showing their tails, staring at the monster cubs inside like grandchildren.
The Taoist soldier who spoke also knew that Cao Xianfeng was not angry in his heart, rolled his eyes, leaned over and said in a low voice: "Why don't we deliberately show a loophole and see what kind of tricks the monsters are playing here?" He said, rushing Watching Cao Xianfeng make a gesture of wiping his neck.
As long as the monsters inside are playing tricks, even if they don't do it, the people around will do it.
Seeing that Cao Xianfeng didn't stop him from speaking, but just frowned, the Taoist soldier knew he could continue, "We've all seen those monster cubs, although they can speak official language and their minds are clear, it's definitely not Big monster. With that kind of strength, I don't need you to take action. I can solve a small part of it by myself. When the time comes, it will turn into thick water and disappear without leaving any trace."
"It's the bigger monster, I don't see anything unusual in it."
Just saying this, a figure flashed out of the broken room inside, it was Jing Fengye.
He was so dirty that he couldn't see his original appearance at all, and the animal skin wrapped around his waist was given because others thought he was so indecent.He didn't seem to know that there were many people hiding outside Honglu Temple, but he also had some vigilance. He looked around and then ran to the corner of the yard and picked up a grasshopper that flew in without knowing how.
The grasshopper was skinny and didn't have much flesh on it, but he held it carefully in his hand as if he was looking at something good.
The Taoist soldier hiding outside was a little disdainful, he could see clearly, the monster inside looked at the grasshopper with the same eyes as he saw the braised pork elbow.
Dao soldiers like them are absolutely not afraid of such ignorant and incompetent monsters.
"No." Seeing this scene, Cao Xianfeng reacted completely differently.
"Why? We don't need to intervene by ourselves. Some people can use them. Besides, these are monsters. If we let them grow up, we will have to fight with Taoist soldiers." The Taoist soldier was a little unhappy when he said that, "Some My lord doesn't know what to think, but he created such a Honglu Temple..."
None of the yamen of the imperial court is decent, even the lowest county yamen, which is also neat and tidy, and it can't be compared with other leisure houses.
But what about Honglu Temple?
It's just a house for poor people. There used to be left and right side rooms, but now they are all rotten into a pile, and only the two main rooms can make do with people. However, when it was confirmed that this was Honglu Temple, someone had put It was emptied and there is nothing in it now.
Such a yamen, if Yao Nation were to know about it, only Da Qin would be ashamed.
The people above naturally don't want to lose face, so there is no need for this shameful yamen to exist, and sooner or later it will be uprooted.
Cao Xianfeng didn't know the reason behind it, this was also a hint from his superiors, if he didn't do it, there would be others scrambling to do it.
Just looking at the monster's appearance, Cao Xianfeng somehow felt that he had changed, the thoughts in his heart had changed.
"No matter what, these monsters can't stay. Even if we want to stay, the higher-ups won't stay." The soldier whispered, "Just like this Honglu Temple Yamen, there is not even a decent official, you still don't understand ?"
Of course Cao Xianfeng understood.
Just as he was saying this, a head popped out from inside. His big black and white eyes looked around the yard, and quickly shrank back.
It was a little cub with silver hair. Its skin was very white, as if it was covered with a layer of light. The silver hair was a little dirty, and it was drooping like this, as if it was wearing clothes.
"The mother-in-law who brought us food hasn't come yet." The little cub rubbed his belly and said to the other cubs in the room, "The pancakes are really delicious, but they are a little moldy. How delicious that is."
Naturally, these words could not be concealed from the Taoist soldiers guarding outside.
Cao Xianfeng didn't know what to think, but felt that the cub was actually no different from a child, and it wasn't as vicious as the monster attacking the border town, so he said in a low voice, "No matter who wants to attack, we can't make mistakes here."
"You want to help them?" The Taoist soldiers under him were a little startled.
The faces of the other Taoist soldiers were also very ugly. These Taoist soldiers all came down from the battlefield in the border town. Monsters are enemies, and they will never die when they meet. How can they let the monsters go?
Naturally, Cao Xianfeng knew what the Taoist soldiers under his command were thinking. Instead of saying this, he said: "We are all Taoist soldiers, unlike those in the court who are intriguing. The Taoist soldiers just obey orders. Since General Yang gave us an errand, We've got to do it exactly so there won't be any mistakes. No matter what other people are, we're all different."
"If I make my own claim now, there may be many adults in the court who are satisfied, but will General Yang be satisfied?"
"General Yang has always been aboveboard. Even though he thought these monster cubs were not pleasing to the eye, he still picked them up from the border town and sent them back to the capital. As long as we subordinates are obedient, we will be fine if General Yang orders this. Nothing to say!"
What he said was categorical, there was nothing wrong with it, and it made sense, but it directly convinced most of the Dao soldiers.
Seeing Cao Xianfeng's firm stand, the rest of the Taoist soldiers who were cautious did not dare to say anything.
In the final analysis, what they want to make is just to find a future. Since those things can't be exchanged for a good future, how can they do it?
It's just that although Cao Xianfeng didn't help them, he helped them in a disguised form.
These Taoist soldiers with unique skills surround Honglu Temple, even if others have ideas, how dare they go past them and attack the monster cubs in Honglu Temple?
The house in Honglu Temple is located in a special place. The surrounding houses are so high that the sun can hardly be seen inside, and the door of the main room is closed every day. If there are not occasional voices inside, no one would know that there are hidden treasures inside. Ten cubs, and one adult monster.
As the weather got colder, the room became more gloomy. It was very cold without even thinking about it.
Cao Xianfeng stomped his feet, covered his mouth with his hands and blew, counting the days in his mind, it has been several days, Mrs. Zhang should also come.
Just as he was thinking, Mrs. Zhang San really came.
Cao Xianfeng hurriedly showed up.
No matter what it looks like, this is Honglu Temple, and everything that goes in and out has to be inspected, and he dare not be careless about this.
Mrs. Zhang San put down the basket, spit on the ground, and said angrily, "It's just some pancakes. These things are enough to satisfy hunger. You can't finish eating one pancake for ten days and a half months. Just look at it." Clear……"
There was really nothing else in the basket, all of them were dough cakes made of moldy grain, the color was a bit weird, and there was a pungent musty smell.
"Okay." Cao Xianfeng waved his hand after reading it once, and asked his Taoist soldiers to open the door.
Mrs. Zhang gave a cold snort, went in with a basket on her shoulders, didn't move forward, just took two or three steps, poured out the bread in the basket and threw it on the ground, then turned around and came out.
When she walked to Cao Xianfeng's side, Mrs. Zhang also said: "I won't come these days. I just married a daughter-in-law, so I have to take care of it."
Cao Xianfeng didn't say a word, and watched Mrs. Zhang leave.
Honglu Temple was so shivering, but Cao Xianfeng knew that the higher-ups actually allocated money, and the group of monster cubs were definitely not to the point of eating moldy dough cakes.
But where the money went, Cao Xianfeng didn't know.
Mrs. Zhang’s family was poor in the past. At the beginning, someone wanted someone to deliver food to the monster cubs, but how could ordinary people have the guts? This is not the case. Cao Xianfeng didn't know about any changes in people.
But every time Mrs. Zhang came, she couldn't see anything in the yard. She felt that she had grown up and dared to give food to the monsters, but she still gave them moldy bread, but she had never seen a monster before. of.
Cao Xianfeng didn't know how he felt in his heart, he couldn't show up often outside, and when Mrs. Zhang disappeared, he had to hide immediately.
These Taoist soldiers received the secret mission given by Yang Shuning, but the treatment was not bad, anyway, the food was better than what they had in the border town.
Good shortbread, sweet and soft snacks, roast chicken, wine and meat, you can eat whatever you want.
No sooner did Cao Xianfeng hide, the Taoist soldiers below brought up a piece of stewed pork and three steamed buns with white flour, and the other Taoist soldiers also ate them silently.
"Not to mention, the food we eat in the capital is much better than that in the border towns."
"A few years ago, the rations in the border towns couldn't keep up, so we saved some beans for the horses. The beans smelled fishy. Anyway, I don't want to eat beans in my life."
"The capital city is good. It has everything. As long as you have money, you can't buy anything."
"Our errand is not bad."
A few Taoist soldiers whispered furtively, and they didn't avoid Cao Xianfeng, nor did he stop them from talking.
The cubs sent by the Tiger Demon King are limited in strength, they are not afraid of Taoist soldiers anyway, if there is a conflict, it would be good if a yellow talisman is thrown, the cub will die.
After Cao Xianfeng ate the steamed buns, he took out the water bag and drank some water. Hearing the sound of the main room being broken inside, he knew without looking that there must be a monster coming out.
He put away his handbag, looked over secretly, and sure enough, he saw the adult monster come out.
That monster has long hands, long legs, and a pair of long legs. If it was a person, it would be a good material for martial arts, but unfortunately it is a monster.
Cao Xianfeng looked around vigilantly at the monster, then trotted out all the way, quickly picked up the pancakes on the ground, and ran back quickly.
I don't know if there is finally something to eat, the monster cubs inside were so excited that they didn't bother to close the door, and the monster happily forgot to close the door, just in time for Cao Xianfeng to see the inside clearly.
Ten cubs, no more, no less, all surrounded the adult monster, staring at him eagerly and swallowing saliva non-stop.
Cao Xianfeng could even hear their stomachs growling one after another.
But there are no monster cubs grabbing food.
"One for each person." Jing Fengye said.
The cubs waited obediently, and everyone got a pancake.
Bright cub hugged the pancake dearly, looked over and over, like looking at some rare treasure, and ran away when he had seen enough.
Cao Xianfeng thought he was afraid that other cubs would snatch it, so he wanted to hide and eat it by himself, but he didn't expect that cub to run out with a smaller piece of bread, gnawing on it, always chewing, reluctant Swallow it.
He looked again, only to find that the other cubs were doing the same.
It turned out that they all hid the bread and ate what was left over from before.
But just that little bread is not enough for a man to stick between his teeth. If he really wants to stay, it will take a lot of willpower.
"The food deliverers are getting later and later, we have to save some food." The bright cub said, putting away the noodle cake that he gnawed into.
The other cubs also nodded, and put away their bread.
"When you are really hungry, take it out and smell it. If you can't bear it anymore, you can take a bite. Otherwise, we will finish eating soon, and we will be hungry in the future." The bright cub whispered, "This way I don’t even know when the day ends.”
"It's always good to survive, at least someone will give us food."
"This house is actually not bad, it's sheltered from wind and rain."
"It would be nice to make a nest out of the hole we dug ourselves."
"Go back to sleep, you'll be less hungry that way."
A few cubs were talking, and slowly shrank back.
At this time, Jing Fengye realized that the door was not closed, and quickly reached out to close the door.
Cao Xianfeng couldn't see the inside of the room anymore.
"Damn it, I'm really aggrieved. A man is aboveboard, how can he act so nastyly. Just do something real, why make it so uncomfortable!" Naturally, other Taoist soldiers also saw this scene inside. In one scene, his face was also not good.
These Taoist soldiers are best at meeting monsters who attack the city. Facing such monsters, they must be life and death.
But looking at these limp monster cubs like this, seeing them guarding the moldy bread carefully and carefully, no matter how much they hated monsters in their hearts, many Taoists felt uncomfortable.
There are also Taoists who are eating steamed buns. The steamed buns bought with money are soft and sweet, and they are also big. A man who is five big and three thick will have to eat three for a meal. If he goes to the battlefield, he will have to eat five or six for a meal. Live hungry.
"At first, I thought it was a good job, but now holding steamed buns is a bit tasteless."
"Whoever said no, in that room... It's uncomfortable to look at."
"Maybe it's a conspiracy by the monster."
"Hmph, it would be great if it was really a conspiracy. If you show the evidence, I will go in and pick them now."
Several Taoist soldiers whispered, and gradually stopped talking.
They hoped that it was just a cruel trick of monsters, but these days they had a good time watching to see if it was a trick of cruelty. If they didn't know, could someone else know?
But the military order is like a mountain, and no one dares to disobey it, and the days have to be endured day by day.
In the dilapidated house, the bright cub took out the bread that he hid and smelled it. Apart from the unpleasant musty smell, he could still smell the unique fragrance of grain.
He was not willing to eat, and hid it again.
Suddenly, he heard some movement in the distance, and then his face became a little frightened.
"You heard it too, didn't you?" the little cub next to him whispered.
The bright cub nodded.
"They are cursing the monsters, saying that the monsters in the demon country are not good things."
"They say all monsters should be killed."
"We monsters who are hostages should be killed directly, and we shouldn't live in the capital."
A few cubs didn't sleep, and they talked in small voices.
Bright Cub whispered: "We are hostages after all."
As soon as these words came out, the other cubs fell silent.
Although they have no memory related to the demon country, they know their identities.At the beginning, I didn't know much about the position of the people in Daqin, but since I came to Honglu Temple, I can always hear some voices from outside, and gradually I know everything I need to know.
"Sleep." Someone said something.
The bright cub closed his eyes and fell asleep obediently.
I don't know how many days they have endured, but the cubs are used to this kind of life. Although they are very hungry, they can't die. They still have some bread in their hands, so that's fine.
Listening to the movement outside these days, although the cubs have never left Honglu Temple, they know a lot about the outside world, they also know that their status is special, and they also know that many people want to eat them raw.
"We're afraid we're going to live here forever, and we can't go outside."
"I can feel that there are actually quite a few people around outside this courtyard. Although they didn't speak, there were quite a few sounds of heartbeats and panting."
"They are also protecting us."
"He didn't attack us, so it can be seen that he is kind-hearted."
"I heard that there are still some people who are stabbing villains for us outside, wanting us to die quickly. If there is really a deep hatred, why don't they come to us and make it clear? If we commit evil things in our hands, this hostage will also be punished." punished."
"I heard that a thief stole something, was caught and broke his leg."
Gradually, the little cubs heard more movements, and they also confirmed what their identities were to Daqin, and they talked more and more.
The cubs' voices were too low for Cao Xianfeng and others to hear some words, but he could guess what the cubs said with just a few words.
The Taoist soldiers under him can also guess it.
"When will we be able to withdraw? I am really uncomfortable watching it every day." said the Taoist soldier under his hand.
The military order is like a mountain, and Cao Xianfeng can't do anything about it.
He patted the Taoist soldier on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "If the general doesn't give us an order, we have to stay on guard all the time. However, someone will come to change our defense in a few days, so we can't stay outside day and night. Can't live."
The Taoist soldier was a sincere person, and he said awkwardly: "Actually, it's not that we can't bear it. We are much better here than the border towns, but, but..."
"Go." Cao Xianfeng knew what he wanted to say.
The life here is actually very good, you can buy whatever you want to eat, you can drink if you want to drink, you can also buy good clothes, unlike the border towns, there is nothing there, and I have eaten beans for horses before. Food with shells is often eaten. Although I have never eaten moldy flour cakes, it is only because the status of these Taoist soldiers is not low. Those Taoist soldiers at the bottom of the border city have never eaten anything. How much better are the cubs in Honglu Temple.
But such a good day makes people want to retreat, not for food.
It's just that I feel awkward looking at the group of cubs.
"Can we find a way to pass the message to the top? It's not a good idea to keep these monster cubs like this. We are guarding like this now. When we change our defense later, who knows if they will attack?" Another Taoist soldier came up with an idea .
Cao Xianfeng didn't speak, he also had some thoughts in his mind, but he was still hesitating.
"Whether to kill or let go, you have to give an accurate statement. This kind of tormenting people is really useless. Anyway, if the tiger demon king knows that these monster cubs live like this, I will definitely Get furious and send big monsters to attack the city!"
"Speak carefully!" Cao Xianfeng's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "I'm also thinking of a way, do you think I'm willing to do this? It's just that Honglu Temple is very stable now, who can guarantee that once the words are delivered, their life will be better than now worse!"
It's worse than the current day, and I'm afraid there won't even be moldy pancakes.
"But the days like this are really aggrieved, I can't take it anymore!" You Daobing couldn't help but growl.
Cao Xianfeng closed his eyes, he really couldn't think of any other way.
"What do you all think? Anyway, this Honglu Temple will be moved sooner or later." Cao Xianfeng said, and his mind became active, "In the end, the big shots above don't think much of these monster cubs, their strength is just that It’s just that they are not doing well, which should be welcome to hear, and the situation is sensitive now, so we definitely can’t take the lead directly.”
"The big man does something and doesn't do it. I don't like these monster cubs doing all kinds of tricks, and I know you don't like it, but we have to find a way to deal with it."
When Cao Xianfeng said this, some Taoist soldiers simply said: "Why don't we just rush in and deal with them, so that I won't have to watch them every day, and I won't be able to eat for a few days. I will carry the crime alone and deal with it." Once this matter is settled, if I ask Lao Tzu to watch them every day, it is better to let Lao Tzu die."
His voice was a bit loud, Cao Xianfeng hurriedly stopped him, and turned his head to observe what was going on inside.
When the little cub heard this, he said to the other little cubs a little puzzled, "Why do you want to kill us?"
These words were soft and delicate, with the softness unique to the little cub, and when they reached the soldier's ears, he immediately blushed, and pouted his neck and said: "We just can't see the use of indiscriminate methods! Since we stand It's different, our brains are not good enough, so we might as well cut the mess with a quick knife!"
Otherwise, what else can be done?
Cao Xianfeng was also in a dilemma.
But soon, a young man who was fooling around turned a corner and appeared at the entrance of the alley, and said to a thin little brother, "Today I will take you to see the world..."
This time Daqin narrowly won, although he paid a very high price, he won in the end, and the Tiger Demon King had to bow his head.
And now these monster cubs in Honglu Temple who are shrunk in the house and dare not see people are the evidence that the Tiger Demon King bowed his head. This really made everyone in Daqin heave a sigh of relief, thinking that the monster country is nothing special, look Seeing the prestige for so many years, didn't he still lose in the end?
It is said to be Honglu Temple, but in fact it is just that the people above just randomly found a house in the poorest, dirtiest and messiest place in the capital.
However, there were quite a few Taoist soldiers staring openly and secretly at the three floors outside and the three floors outside. If the monster cubs inside had any bad intentions, they would definitely be unable to escape.
"Damn, staring at those things every day, when will it be a head." Dao Bing let out a sigh of relief, rubbed his hands, and changed his posture carefully.
Cao Xianfeng immediately looked over and said in a low voice, "Speak carefully!"
His face was also very ugly.
These Taoist soldiers are one in a thousand masters. They should be stationed in the border town, killing monsters and making achievements, instead of squatting here hiding their heads and showing their tails, staring at the monster cubs inside like grandchildren.

"It's the bigger monster, I don't see anything unusual in it."
Just saying this, a figure flashed out of the broken room inside, it was Jing Fengye.

"No matter what, these monsters can't stay. Even if we want to stay, the higher-ups won't stay." The soldier whispered, "Just like this Honglu Temple Yamen, there is not even a decent official, you still don't understand ?"
Of course Cao Xianfeng understood.
Just as he was saying this, a head popped out from inside. His big black and white eyes looked around the yard, and quickly shrank back.
It was a little cub with silver hair. Its skin was very white, as if it was covered with a layer of light. The silver hair was a little dirty, and it was drooping like this, as if it was wearing clothes.

Naturally, these words could not be concealed from the Taoist soldiers guarding outside.

"If I make my own claim now, there may be many adults in the court who are satisfied, but will General Yang be satisfied?"
"General Yang has always been aboveboard. Even though he thought these monster cubs were not pleasing to the eye, he still picked them up from the border town and sent them back to the capital. As long as we subordinates are obedient, we will be fine if General Yang orders this. Nothing to say!"
What he said was categorical, there was nothing wrong with it, and it made sense, but it directly convinced most of the Dao soldiers.
Seeing Cao Xianfeng's firm stand, the rest of the Taoist soldiers who were cautious did not dare to say anything.
In the final analysis, what they want to make is just to find a future. Since those things can't be exchanged for a good future, how can they do it?
It's just that although Cao Xianfeng didn't help them, he helped them in a disguised form.
These Taoist soldiers with unique skills surround Honglu Temple, even if others have ideas, how dare they go past them and attack the monster cubs in Honglu Temple?
The house in Honglu Temple is located in a special place. The surrounding houses are so high that the sun can hardly be seen inside, and the door of the main room is closed every day. If there are not occasional voices inside, no one would know that there are hidden treasures inside. Ten cubs, and one adult monster.
As the weather got colder, the room became more gloomy. It was very cold without even thinking about it.
Cao Xianfeng stomped his feet, covered his mouth with his hands and blew, counting the days in his mind, it has been several days, Mrs. Zhang should also come.
Just as he was thinking, Mrs. Zhang San really came.
Cao Xianfeng hurriedly showed up.
No matter what it looks like, this is Honglu Temple, and everything that goes in and out has to be inspected, and he dare not be careless about this.
Mrs. Zhang San put down the basket, spit on the ground, and said angrily, "It's just some pancakes. These things are enough to satisfy hunger. You can't finish eating one pancake for ten days and a half months. Just look at it." Clear……"
There was really nothing else in the basket, all of them were dough cakes made of moldy grain, the color was a bit weird, and there was a pungent musty smell.
"Okay." Cao Xianfeng waved his hand after reading it once, and asked his Taoist soldiers to open the door.
Mrs. Zhang gave a cold snort, went in with a basket on her shoulders, didn't move forward, just took two or three steps, poured out the bread in the basket and threw it on the ground, then turned around and came out.
When she walked to Cao Xianfeng's side, Mrs. Zhang also said: "I won't come these days. I just married a daughter-in-law, so I have to take care of it."
Cao Xianfeng didn't say a word, and watched Mrs. Zhang leave.
Honglu Temple was so shivering, but Cao Xianfeng knew that the higher-ups actually allocated money, and the group of monster cubs were definitely not to the point of eating moldy dough cakes.
But where the money went, Cao Xianfeng didn't know.
Mrs. Zhang’s family was poor in the past. At the beginning, someone wanted someone to deliver food to the monster cubs, but how could ordinary people have the guts? This is not the case. Cao Xianfeng didn't know about any changes in people.
But every time Mrs. Zhang came, she couldn't see anything in the yard. She felt that she had grown up and dared to give food to the monsters, but she still gave them moldy bread, but she had never seen a monster before. of.
Cao Xianfeng didn't know how he felt in his heart, he couldn't show up often outside, and when Mrs. Zhang disappeared, he had to hide immediately.
These Taoist soldiers received the secret mission given by Yang Shuning, but the treatment was not bad, anyway, the food was better than what they had in the border town.
Good shortbread, sweet and soft snacks, roast chicken, wine and meat, you can eat whatever you want.
No sooner did Cao Xianfeng hide, the Taoist soldiers below brought up a piece of stewed pork and three steamed buns with white flour, and the other Taoist soldiers also ate them silently.
"Not to mention, the food we eat in the capital is much better than that in the border towns."
"A few years ago, the rations in the border towns couldn't keep up, so we saved some beans for the horses. The beans smelled fishy. Anyway, I don't want to eat beans in my life."
"The capital city is good. It has everything. As long as you have money, you can't buy anything."
"Our errand is not bad."
A few Taoist soldiers whispered furtively, and they didn't avoid Cao Xianfeng, nor did he stop them from talking.
The cubs sent by the Tiger Demon King are limited in strength, they are not afraid of Taoist soldiers anyway, if there is a conflict, it would be good if a yellow talisman is thrown, the cub will die.
After Cao Xianfeng ate the steamed buns, he took out the water bag and drank some water. Hearing the sound of the main room being broken inside, he knew without looking that there must be a monster coming out.
He put away his handbag, looked over secretly, and sure enough, he saw the adult monster come out.
That monster has long hands, long legs, and a pair of long legs. If it was a person, it would be a good material for martial arts, but unfortunately it is a monster.
Cao Xianfeng looked around vigilantly at the monster, then trotted out all the way, quickly picked up the pancakes on the ground, and ran back quickly.
I don't know if there is finally something to eat, the monster cubs inside were so excited that they didn't bother to close the door, and the monster happily forgot to close the door, just in time for Cao Xianfeng to see the inside clearly.
Ten cubs, no more, no less, all surrounded the adult monster, staring at him eagerly and swallowing saliva non-stop.
Cao Xianfeng could even hear their stomachs growling one after another.
But there are no monster cubs grabbing food.
"One for each person." Jing Fengye said.
The cubs waited obediently, and everyone got a pancake.
Bright cub hugged the pancake dearly, looked over and over, like looking at some rare treasure, and ran away when he had seen enough.
Cao Xianfeng thought he was afraid that other cubs would snatch it, so he wanted to hide and eat it by himself, but he didn't expect that cub to run out with a smaller piece of bread, gnawing on it, always chewing, reluctant Swallow it.
He looked again, only to find that the other cubs were doing the same.
It turned out that they all hid the bread and ate what was left over from before.
But just that little bread is not enough for a man to stick between his teeth. If he really wants to stay, it will take a lot of willpower.
"The food deliverers are getting later and later, we have to save some food." The bright cub said, putting away the noodle cake that he gnawed into.
The other cubs also nodded, and put away their bread.
"When you are really hungry, take it out and smell it. If you can't bear it anymore, you can take a bite. Otherwise, we will finish eating soon, and we will be hungry in the future." The bright cub whispered, "This way I don’t even know when the day ends.”
"It's always good to survive, at least someone will give us food."
"This house is actually not bad, it's sheltered from wind and rain."
"It would be nice to make a nest out of the hole we dug ourselves."
"Go back to sleep, you'll be less hungry that way."
A few cubs were talking, and slowly shrank back.
At this time, Jing Fengye realized that the door was not closed, and quickly reached out to close the door.
Cao Xianfeng couldn't see the inside of the room anymore.
"Damn it, I'm really aggrieved. A man is aboveboard, how can he act so nastyly. Just do something real, why make it so uncomfortable!" Naturally, other Taoist soldiers also saw this scene inside. In one scene, his face was also not good.
These Taoist soldiers are best at meeting monsters who attack the city. Facing such monsters, they must be life and death.
But looking at these limp monster cubs like this, seeing them guarding the moldy bread carefully and carefully, no matter how much they hated monsters in their hearts, many Taoists felt uncomfortable.
There are also Taoists who are eating steamed buns. The steamed buns bought with money are soft and sweet, and they are also big. A man who is five big and three thick will have to eat three for a meal. If he goes to the battlefield, he will have to eat five or six for a meal. Live hungry.
"At first, I thought it was a good job, but now holding steamed buns is a bit tasteless."
"Whoever said no, in that room... It's uncomfortable to look at."
"Maybe it's a conspiracy by the monster."
"Hmph, it would be great if it was really a conspiracy. If you show the evidence, I will go in and pick them now."
Several Taoist soldiers whispered, and gradually stopped talking.
They hoped that it was just a cruel trick of monsters, but these days they had a good time watching to see if it was a trick of cruelty. If they didn't know, could someone else know?
But the military order is like a mountain, and no one dares to disobey it, and the days have to be endured day by day.
In the dilapidated house, the bright cub took out the bread that he hid and smelled it. Apart from the unpleasant musty smell, he could still smell the unique fragrance of grain.
He was not willing to eat, and hid it again.
Suddenly, he heard some movement in the distance, and then his face became a little frightened.
"You heard it too, didn't you?" the little cub next to him whispered.
The bright cub nodded.
"They are cursing the monsters, saying that the monsters in the demon country are not good things."
"They say all monsters should be killed."
"We monsters who are hostages should be killed directly, and we shouldn't live in the capital."
A few cubs didn't sleep, and they talked in small voices.
Bright Cub whispered: "We are hostages after all."
As soon as these words came out, the other cubs fell silent.
Although they have no memory related to the demon country, they know their identities.At the beginning, I didn't know much about the position of the people in Daqin, but since I came to Honglu Temple, I can always hear some voices from outside, and gradually I know everything I need to know.
"Sleep." Someone said something.
The bright cub closed his eyes and fell asleep obediently.
I don't know how many days they have endured, but the cubs are used to this kind of life. Although they are very hungry, they can't die. They still have some bread in their hands, so that's fine.
Listening to the movement outside these days, although the cubs have never left Honglu Temple, they know a lot about the outside world, they also know that their status is special, and they also know that many people want to eat them raw.
"We're afraid we're going to live here forever, and we can't go outside."
"I can feel that there are actually quite a few people around outside this courtyard. Although they didn't speak, there were quite a few sounds of heartbeats and panting."
"They are also protecting us."
"He didn't attack us, so it can be seen that he is kind-hearted."
"I heard that there are still some people who are stabbing villains for us outside, wanting us to die quickly. If there is really a deep hatred, why don't they come to us and make it clear? If we commit evil things in our hands, this hostage will also be punished." punished."
"I heard that a thief stole something, was caught and broke his leg."
Gradually, the little cubs heard more movements, and they also confirmed what their identities were to Daqin, and they talked more and more.
The cubs' voices were too low for Cao Xianfeng and others to hear some words, but he could guess what the cubs said with just a few words.
The Taoist soldiers under him can also guess it.
"When will we be able to withdraw? I am really uncomfortable watching it every day." said the Taoist soldier under his hand.
The military order is like a mountain, and Cao Xianfeng can't do anything about it.
He patted the Taoist soldier on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "If the general doesn't give us an order, we have to stay on guard all the time. However, someone will come to change our defense in a few days, so we can't stay outside day and night. Can't live."
The Taoist soldier was a sincere person, and he said awkwardly: "Actually, it's not that we can't bear it. We are much better here than the border towns, but, but..."
"Go." Cao Xianfeng knew what he wanted to say.
The life here is actually very good, you can buy whatever you want to eat, you can drink if you want to drink, you can also buy good clothes, unlike the border towns, there is nothing there, and I have eaten beans for horses before. Food with shells is often eaten. Although I have never eaten moldy flour cakes, it is only because the status of these Taoist soldiers is not low. Those Taoist soldiers at the bottom of the border city have never eaten anything. How much better are the cubs in Honglu Temple.
But such a good day makes people want to retreat, not for food.
It's just that I feel awkward looking at the group of cubs.
"Can we find a way to pass the message to the top? It's not a good idea to keep these monster cubs like this. We are guarding like this now. When we change our defense later, who knows if they will attack?" Another Taoist soldier came up with an idea .
Cao Xianfeng didn't speak, he also had some thoughts in his mind, but he was still hesitating.
"Whether to kill or let go, you have to give an accurate statement. This kind of tormenting people is really useless. Anyway, if the tiger demon king knows that these monster cubs live like this, I will definitely Get furious and send big monsters to attack the city!"
"Speak carefully!" Cao Xianfeng's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "I'm also thinking of a way, do you think I'm willing to do this? It's just that Honglu Temple is very stable now, who can guarantee that once the words are delivered, their life will be better than now worse!"
It's worse than the current day, and I'm afraid there won't even be moldy pancakes.
"But the days like this are really aggrieved, I can't take it anymore!" You Daobing couldn't help but growl.
Cao Xianfeng closed his eyes, he really couldn't think of any other way.
"What do you all think? Anyway, this Honglu Temple will be moved sooner or later." Cao Xianfeng said, and his mind became active, "In the end, the big shots above don't think much of these monster cubs, their strength is just that It’s just that they are not doing well, which should be welcome to hear, and the situation is sensitive now, so we definitely can’t take the lead directly.”
"The big man does something and doesn't do it. I don't like these monster cubs doing all kinds of tricks, and I know you don't like it, but we have to find a way to deal with it."
When Cao Xianfeng said this, some Taoist soldiers simply said: "Why don't we just rush in and deal with them, so that I won't have to watch them every day, and I won't be able to eat for a few days. I will carry the crime alone and deal with it." Once this matter is settled, if I ask Lao Tzu to watch them every day, it is better to let Lao Tzu die."
His voice was a bit loud, Cao Xianfeng hurriedly stopped him, and turned his head to observe what was going on inside.
When the little cub heard this, he said to the other little cubs a little puzzled, "Why do you want to kill us?"
These words were soft and delicate, with the softness unique to the little cub, and when they reached the soldier's ears, he immediately blushed, and pouted his neck and said: "We just can't see the use of indiscriminate methods! Since we stand It's different, our brains are not good enough, so we might as well cut the mess with a quick knife!"
Otherwise, what else can be done?
Cao Xianfeng was also in a dilemma.
But soon, a young man who was fooling around turned a corner and appeared at the entrance of the alley, and said to a thin little brother, "Today I will take you to see the world..."
