For two days, there was no sound outside except the wind.

Everyone should have left.

They don't say hello when they leave. These people are really rude.

It's been four days, and the monk hasn't come back yet, Chi Xingwo doesn't want to wait any longer.

If the monk has not come back today, he will leave tomorrow morning.

He didn't want to endure this kind of suffering that felt like years.The monk just thinks too much, how can there be so many dangers outside, even if he encounters them, I believe that as long as he runs fast, the dangers will not be able to catch up with him.

Chi Xingwo made plans in his heart, waiting silently while preparing what he needed on the road.

Pack lightly on the road, unless it is necessary, it is better to bring less things. Fortunately, it is not too cold at night recently, just bear with it, so just bring water and dry food.

When night fell, the surprise did not come, Chi Xingwo was going to bed early to recharge his energy, and set off at dawn.

When he opened the door, the sky and the earth were still gray, but whether it was the grove in the distance or the path nearby, they were all very clear in his eyes, which immediately made Chi Xingwo feel more confident.

Since he met the monk, this was the first time he went out alone. He found an old cloth and covered his head and face with only one pair of eyes exposed. - a broken baggage.

Anyone who looked at him looked like he was fleeing famine.

Chi Xingwo found that he could not sense the monk three days ago. Before that, although he could not see the monk, at least he could see him in his dream, read his name in his heart, and get a quick response .

But Chi Xingwo also understands that the monk is doing business, not going out to play, so he rarely disturbs the monk.

But since three days ago, Chi Xingwo could no longer contact the monk, which made him not panic.

Chi Xingwo tried his best to pick up the small road with few people, and walked quietly, let alone a living person, not even a bird feather.

Of course, one of the most important reasons might be that he didn't dare to go in when he saw villages and small towns.

Half an hour ago, he passed by a small village. The village was really small, with seven or eight thatched huts here and there. .

He was sure, although he didn't see it, there must be something in that room.

He heard the sound of chewing and chewing, and the sound of gulping and swallowing mixed with saliva.

After going through all this, Chi Xingwo didn't dare to look blindly, let alone go into those empty rooms to see if there were any living people.

After walking in the direction of Qingyang City for most of the day, Chi Xingwo ate two mouthfuls of dry food when he was hungry, and leaned against the trunk to rest when he was tired.

He doesn't know the way, but only a general direction, so he has no idea how long it will take to reach Qingyang City.

Seeing that it was getting late and he could no longer hurry, Chi Xingwo found a place in a lush thatch field and lay down.

The thatch is not high, only reaching his waist, but if he squats, others cannot see him, but if something comes over, he can find it in time, and there is no wind in the haystack, so it is quite warm.

Chi Xingwo took off the burden on his back, put it on a pillow, piled some dry thatch on his body to keep warm, and closed his eyes to sleep.

Sleeping until midnight, he always felt his face was slippery and itchy. Chi Xingwo, who was already insecure, woke up suddenly, and almost scared him to death when he opened his eyes.

An enlarged snake head was sticking to his face, and the cold snake letter kept scraping his face, making Chi Xingwo stand upside down with cold hair all over his body, screaming and waving his hands, and he kept backing away.

Monk help, there are snakes!

What a big snake.

Chi Xingwo was not afraid of snakes at first, but he couldn't stand the size of this thing, it was still a python, and it was in such a sudden situation, he was so scared to death.

It is impossible to fight, and it is serious to run for your life.

Chi Xingwo only hated that he only had two legs and ran too slowly.So by the time he realized he was safe, he had lost his way and lost food and water.

What can I do now...

Chi Xingwo sat on a big rock, facing the cold moonlight, and asked the sky speechlessly.

Just then, he heard some rustling sounds, like footsteps on dry grass.

Chi Xingwo immediately became vigilant, there was no panic in his eyes, only calmness, which was completely different from his attitude towards the boa constrictor.

In his view, people are more terrifying.

"Who's there?" A slightly hesitant voice suddenly sounded.

Chi Xingwo - didn't move at all, let alone answered, hoping that this person would leave quickly.

"Did I hear it wrong?" The voice seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to be asking someone.

Chi Xingwo's heart - condensed, he obviously only heard one person's footsteps, could there be another one.

"Master, let's go back first, maybe that's not a human being." Sure enough, another voice sounded.

It's just that Chi Xingwo didn't have time to be startled, because he was a little familiar with this person's voice, as if he had heard it somewhere.

As for where he heard it, he couldn't remember it for a while, because the content of this person's words attracted his attention more, master... what master?

Could it be a monk?

But weren't those people driven away long ago?Chi Xingwo was at a loss, and hoped they could talk more, but he didn't want to expose himself.

It wasn't until the two were about to leave his hearing range that Chi Xingwo heard the crucial sentence.

"...Tomorrow we will definitely arrive at Qingyang City, Master, please be safe..."

Qingyang City!Chi Xingwo's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly chased after those two people, and shouted: "Wait for me, Master, wait for me, there is still one person here..."

When Chi Xingwo caught up, he saw an old monk holding a Zen staff and a man in Tsing Yi.

"It's you!" Chi Xingwo was slightly relieved.

The man in Tsing Yi seemed a little puzzled: "Master, do you recognize me?"

Then - hearing this gentle voice, Chi Xingwo was even more surprised, and said again: "It turned out to be you?"

Qing Yuan was even more confused, frowned and said: "If I remember correctly, I don't know you well."

Chi Xingwo explained: "When I was at the inn in Qingyang City, I met you, and you lived opposite me. Of course, you didn't notice me. Three days ago, I was outside the cabin, and I was the person in that room. Sorry I didn't open the door at that time."

The reason why I say so much is entirely because I hope that this person can see that he has helped him somehow, and can pick him up on the way.

"So it's you!" Qing Yuan suddenly realized, "Why did you come here?"

Chi Xingwo smiled at the old monk and the man in clothes: "It's a long story. I just heard you say that you are going to Qingyang City. Can you let me go with you?"

Qing Yuan didn't agree, but instead introduced the old monk and said: "This is Master Ligou, who once traveled to the Western Regions to study and saved countless people who suffered from the plague."

This master Ligou looks skinny, but has a peaceful face, he seems to be very indifferent to the world, he is worthy of being a master.

Chi Xingwo understood what the man in Tsing Yi meant, which meant that if he wanted to hitch a ride, he had to agree with Master Ligou.

Chi Xingwo immediately bowed to Ligou, bent at ninety degrees: "I hope Master can agree..." If he disagrees, he will quietly follow behind.

"I just don't know what the benefactor is going to Qingyang City. If you're not in a hurry, it's better not to go right now. It's very dangerous there." Li Gou didn't let go because Chi Xingwo and Qing Yuan knew each other.

Hurry up, Chi Xingwo is in a hurry: "My friend is in danger there, I'm going to bring him back."

Fearing that he still disagreed, Chi Xingwo hurriedly added another sentence: "He is also a monk, and he is here to save people."

Seeing that Ligou's face didn't seem to carry his thoughts, Chi Xingwo was a little disappointed.

At this moment, Qing Yuan said: "If we didn't take him with us, I'm afraid he will still go, it's even more dangerous..."

Chi Xingwo nodded again and again.

Li Gou thought for a while, then compromised: "Then the benefactor will go with us, just don't walk around at will, pay attention to safety."

"Okay, I'll remember everything the master said, and I promise not to run around." Chi Xingwo solemnly promised, and then smiled at Qing Yuan. It's really thanks to him.

Then Chi Xingwo followed the two back to the place where they stayed overnight, which was in a forest.

Here, Chi Xingwo saw thirty or forty monks, and learned about them from Qing Yuan.

Ligou has devoted himself to researching plagues for half his life, so it can be said that he has a lot of knowledge about plagues, but this time he has never encountered the situation in Qingyang City. At that time, he raised doubts, and many people praised him.

At that time, it happened that he was in the bottleneck period of cultivation, and at the moment when he broke through the bottleneck, he suddenly realized.

It turns out that what has been bothering them all this time—what can never be eradicated is not the plague, but the devilish energy.

Although the superficial situation is not much different, inwardly it is quite the opposite.

Fortunately, it was not too late at that time, as long as you study hard, you can always find a way.

But who knows, he, many fellow Taoists and his disciples and grandchildren were driven out of Qingyang City.

On that day, people in the whole city suddenly glared at them, as if they had done something heinous.

Later, he did hear many charges that sounded extremely absurd and unfounded.

Looking at those disgusted, contemptuous, or resentful faces, Ligou suddenly became confused. Everything he did was to save these people, but why do these people hate them so much?

why?

He listened to the crimes accused by those people, counted the family members who died in the plague, and described their pain and suffering before death.

It seems that overnight, these monks suddenly became sinners, the source of all these disasters.

He asked to see Mrs. Yang, but the response he received was to drive her away.

At that moment, they were really discouraged!That's all, since you're driving us away, let's go.

It's just that Li Gu didn't expect that the world would change drastically, the plague would be rampant, and every room would be empty.

He regretted it, if he had persisted a little more at the beginning, the result would have been different.

And he is not the only monk who thinks like this, the monk mentioned by the little benefactor just now is one, and the little benefactor himself is also one.

So he's back!

……

There were a lot of people around, and Chi Xingwo felt a sense of security in an instant, so he found an open space and planned to catch up on sleep. Don't wait for him to be exhausted to death when he needs to use his strength tomorrow, it would be embarrassing.

Chi Xingwo, who was sleeping peacefully, didn't see how Qing Yuan, who was only one step away from him, looked at him with soft and paranoid eyes.

Chi Xingwo, look, this time, you came to me by yourself. —It’s just a little snake, it’s so scared to be like that...

The next day, Chi Xingwo woke up and found himself lying in Qing Yuan's arms, and the other party was still looking at him with innocent eyes and a smile.

Embarrassed and shamed, Chi Xingwo just wanted to find a hole to bury himself.

"Yes... I'm sorry, I interrupted your rest..." Chi Xingwo quickly got up.

Qing Yuan smiled, skipped the matter and said: "It's getting late, it's time to get ready to go, hurry up."

"Okay..." Chi Xingwo slapped his face angrily, thinking, is his sleeping posture so bad? Usually he really likes to hang around monks, that's right, but Qing Yuan is not a monk...

If the monk found out, he would definitely be angry, and he would still be sulking without saying a word, hum! —We must not let the monks know that this is all for the sake of their happy life.

……

Unlike the peace on Chi Xingwo's side, the battle on the monk's side is still fierce.

In Qingyang City, apart from him and Mrs. Yang, the white fox, there is no living person at this time. No, he and Mrs. Yang are not human beings either.

Neither is human.

Monk fought extremely hard in this match, but at least he got the upper hand, crippling the white fox's two hind legs, making her unable to move for a while.

However, the price he paid was not small, and his right hand might be inconvenient for a short time, so he would not be able to drive Xingwo's carriage.

The monk stood in the ruins, holding a golden Zen stick in his left hand, and walked towards Mrs. Yang who was about to lose her human form.

"Hand it over..." The monk looked coldly at the white fox on the ground that had completely turned into its original form, and pointed the dazzling golden Zen staff directly at the white fox's head.

"Have you ever loved someone?" The desperate white fox suddenly gave up struggling, his voice hoarse.

"Hand it over!" The monk returned his indifferent gaze.

The white fox didn't seem to see the Zen stick that was about to take her life so close, and yelled and laughed in a hoarse voice, even though the dry and injured throat continued to dry up and bleed, he still kept saying, "Hahahaha... I am with you, the bald donkey." What are you talking about, how do you know what love is, I actually told you this...cough cough cough...it's really...it's ridiculous...you monks, what kind of Tao do you have in your heart, Buddha...how do you know what love is... Ha ha ha ha……"

The monk's expression remained unchanged, looking at the white fox's eyes, as if looking at a dead thing: "I will say it again for the last time, hand it over..."

The monk ignored what Baihu was saying, and the same was true for Baihu, she only said what she wanted to say, her expression was full of compassion: "You monks, you are so pitiful... so pitiful, you don't even know what it's like to be in love, - I don't know how to love someone in my whole life, hahahaha...it's really pitiful...but..."

"...But I am different from you. I have lived for more than 400 years, seen many scenery in the world, and traveled to many places before I finally found my lover. His heart is so soft, and I can't bear the suffering of people in the world... ..."

The monk looked at the eyes of the white fox caught in memory, and stopped, without interrupting or interjecting.

You are wrong, I have a lover, and I know what it's like to be in love, but I won't say it.

However, such a white fox really made him unable to bear to do it.

"...He wants to practice medicine to save people, so I will help him. I became his wife. My medical skills are getting better and better. I can help him. I have saved so many people, so many lives... It’s all because of me that I survived. Now I’m just taking those people’s lives back, what did I do wrong? Monk, tell me, what did I do wrong?”

The monk looked at her eyes, there was no sympathy, only coldness: "You have killed too many sins..."

"I just want to save him!" The white fox roared with all his strength, "As long as I can save him, I don't care about anything. Monk, please let me go. I won't kill anyone again. I will still save people." , be a good doctor, as long as you let me and my husband go, I will never kill anyone again..."

The monk knew that no matter how much he said at this time, the white fox would not listen anymore, so he raised the Zen stick in his hand and swung it at the white fox with an unstoppable force.

But just when the monk thought that the white fox would be killed on the spot, the white fox, which seemed powerless to him, suddenly spit out a white ball like an inner alchemy. , so that the monk is very clear that it is definitely not some kind of inner alchemy, but it is extracted from countless people by the white fox burying countless lives and using the technique of deceiving heaven.

The white ball blocked the monk's fatal blow, and then the white fox recovered from all injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to its peak state.

At the same time, the monk also noticed that the white ball made of luck, soul power and vitality suddenly shrank in size—a small circle.

The white fox was furious, and her thin white hairs burst out like sharp knives. She shouted angrily and came straight to the monk.

"You bald donkey, it's all your fault, it's all your fault. Originally, Yang Lang could be with me for thousands of years, forever, but you forced me to use the Lingyuan Pill. After taking it, Yang Lang will definitely be affected. I want to kill him." I will kill you, I will kill you..."

Although this kind of influence is negligible, after all, Yang Lang is just a mortal, and the Lingyuan Pill can be a little smaller, but what about in the future?What if there is an accident?It is absolutely impossible for her to arrange such a deception technique as today, so there is only one Lingyuan Pill in the world.

The white fox was trembling with anger, its eyes were blood red, and its tail was like a huge sharp sword stabbing at the monk.

The monk didn't hide, but waved his Zen staff straight forward, and when the collision happened, the monk spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this situation, the white fox became proud: "Hahaha, bald donkey, what are you crazy about? You are going to die by my sword today. I can kill as many people as I want. What are you and what qualifications do you have to come here?" Leave me alone!"

The monk spat out the last mouthful of blood, and he didn't lift his head, let alone give him a look.

Undoubtedly, this attitude greatly angered the white fox.

"Looking for death!" The white hair on the white fox's face stood up, wrapped in a huge air current, carrying the tail of the sword, and stood with the monk again.

Only this time, she had the upper hand.

The monk who was suppressed all the way was soon covered with deep and visible bone wounds, and there were shattered internal organs in the spit out blood.

"You're so weak, is this your strength? Hahahaha... just die!" The white fox's tail suddenly stood up, and its snow-white feathers turned red instantly, as flexible as a real sword.

But, next-second, she was stupid!

"Crack..." The white fox was stunned, her tail... was actually broken?

As for the dead bald donkey on the opposite side, his aura suddenly became terrifying, as if he had changed from an ant that she could easily crush to death, to a god of death who could suddenly control her life and death.

The white fox could feel her heart beating so fast that it seemed to burst out of her heart, and her teeth were chattering non-stop. She wanted to fight back, but she couldn't move for a long time.

Because she was trembling, she was afraid, she was surrendering with all her body and mind, that terrible monk.

What the white fox saw at the last second was not the golden Zen staff, but the devilish aura exuding the aura of death.

It turned out that it was not a human, but a devil... a devil!

The white fox's body suddenly split in two, and blood spurted out straight into the sky, while her expression remained fearful and shocked.

The monk, whose eyes were extremely red and so thick that they were almost black, was surrounded by a suffocating demonic energy, with a gloomy, cruel and violent expression on his face, and the blood of the white fox remained.

"Monk... Monk..."

At this time, a trembling and familiar voice pulled the monk back from the brink of losing control.

He turned his head stiffly and looked behind him, frowning, as if he didn't understand why Chi Xingwo was here, and why he looked at him... with fear?

The author has something to say: I overestimated myself, today will not end, it looks like tomorrow!
