Chapter 12 Monsters welcome their bride

It was dark, the moon was hanging high, and wild beasts howled in the mountains.

Everyone had already set fires to light the fire and cooked soup, but the caravans had been traveling around the country for many years and were all wary. When they heard the sound of footsteps, they immediately put down their work and stared at the door.

In the caravan, there were three tall men who quietly touched their hands to their waists.

How can you not bring escort weapons when traveling in the mountains?

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and someone appeared outside the door, but did not come in directly. Instead, he stopped for a while and shouted loudly through the door: "Is there anyone in the temple?"

"Who?" Manager Zhang asked sternly.

"Your Excellency, we are a scholar in Jinshan County. We went to Beijing for the exam. When we passed by here, we saw a fire and wanted to stay overnight. I wonder if it would be convenient?" The voice outside the door shouted.

Manager Zhang and his subordinates looked at each other, then looked at Ning You again.

Ning You nodded.

"We are staying in the small temple in the mountains. If you don't dislike it, come in and squeeze in!" Manager Zhang said to the door.

"Thank you!"

The sound outside the door was filled with joy, and then the dilapidated temple door was pushed open. Three people wearing green robes and carrying luggage. Although they looked worse than Ning You, they could be called a handsome scholar and walked in.

The scholar in the head was tall, wearing jade on his waist, and a fair face. He seemed to have an extraordinary family background. Although the last two scholars looked a little darker, they held their heads up and their chests were neither humble nor arrogant, and their temperament was not bad.

"Everyone is polite!"

"I'll bother you at night, please forgive me!"

The scholars were very polite and spoke gentlely, which made people feel good. After a conversation, Manager Zhang's eyes slowly relaxed.

"It's okay, they are all rushing people, and meeting is fate."

Manager Zhang smiled, and then ordered his subordinates: "Put a few bowls of hot soup to warm up your body."

Immediately someone brought hot water to the three scholars, handed some dry food, and divided some bonfires over.

Several scholars looked at the food in their hands and looked at each other. Finally, the leader smiled and took the lead to eat. Seeing this, the remaining two scholars also started to eat.

I don’t know if it was Ning You’s illusion, but he seemed to see the jade pendant on his waist flashing slightly while holding the food, but it soon faded.

Ning You narrowed his eyes and felt a little alert.

After practicing the breathing and nap, I would rather go to the dantian to fill my body and my energy gradually became stronger. Although I did not have any special techniques, over time, my mind was clear and my mind was sharp and I had a little magical feeling.

This is also the reason why Ning You did not bring his servants. A dozen strong men were no match for Ning You. It was no longer meaningful to bring a few servants.

Ning You felt that he had read it correctly, but it was inconvenient to verify it, so he could only be alert to it secretly.

Fortunately, time passed quickly and we were all at peace in the first half of the night.

Ning Yun was full of dantian and didn't feel sleepy, but he also squinted his eyes and kept his rest while watching the night.

...

It was late at night, the moon was as big as a plate, the cool breeze blew, everyone was asleep, and the caravans were dozing off at night.

But suddenly, the sound of beating gongs and drums came from the mountains, and the sound of suona was filled with joy, which shocked the sound of large birds.

"Who!"

"What happened!"

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the mountains and forests are silent. The sound of gongs and drums suddenly appears, which is particularly harsh. The caravan members instantly wake up from their sleep, looking around, looking at their companions and outside the temple, but no one knows what happened.

"What's the sound?"

"Why does it sound like a wedding sound?"

"Who's wedding reception in the middle of the night?"

"It's rare and strange. If you go to welcome the bride at night, you will be in this custom. When you come to welcome the bride at night, you will enter the door in the early morning, and you will be a bride from now on."

"Nothing nonsense, my grandma's daughter's daughter married Niujiao Town, why haven't I heard of it!"

"Besides, who is here to welcome the bride to the mountain? There is no one in the wilderness nearby!"

"Welcoming the bride at night will not be the ghost bride!"

"Bao, bah, bah, bah! This is the temple of the Fox Immortal, what the hell is there! What about the Fox Immortal, say goodbye to me!"

".Give me goodbye too!"

The caravan members started to discuss the conversation in a slight manner, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little gloomy. A gust of cold wind blew, and the caravan members shivered and quickly looked for the statue of the fox immortal.

Although there was only one fox head left, everyone quickly raised it and bowed.

"What a panic! I don't know what's going on, but I'm in a mess!"

Manager Zhang scolded with a calm face, asked his subordinates to stand up properly, then picked two people and ordered: "Xiao Liu, Xiao Sun, you two hold a torch and go out to see what happened, why did you beat drums and drums in the middle of the night?"

The two nodded, raised the torch, pushed open the temple gate, and explored into the darkness.

At this time, the sound of gongs and drums and suona were getting closer and closer. When the temple gate was pushed open, everyone in the temple could even see fires rising from a distance, arranged in a straight line, and the scale was quite large.

The firelight accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums, and it was very fast. In a short while, it arrived near the temple gate.

Only then did everyone see clearly that it was a wedding party.

But the one who lifts the flower bridge and holds the torch is not a human!

Instead, there are monsters with exposed teeth, distinct hair, hideous and terrifying, wolf-headed and human-body!

On both sides, there are monkey monsters with sharp faces and cheeks!

They are all beast-headed and human, wearing red wedding dresses, looking funny and ferocious.

Seeing this, everyone in the temple changed their faces, and Ning You instantly pinched the sword bag and quietly retreated behind everyone.

"monster!"

"It's really a monster to welcome the bride!"

"Extinguish the fire quickly, don't let the monsters see us!"

"Bless the Fox Immortal!"

Just as the caravans were fighting and preparing to put out the bonfire, the wedding procession suddenly stopped.

"clang!"

The sound of gongs sounded, and a sharp voice came from the front of the welcoming team: "Everyone in the temple, meeting is fate. My king will make friends with you. Please come with us and have a wedding wine in the mansion!"

Monsters welcome their bride?

Want to invite someone to have a wedding banquet?

No one dared to answer in the temple, and Manager Zhang's face turned pale and sweated coldly. He couldn't help looking at the few guards with swords. Who knew that the few guards were also frightened.

Although they have been traveling around the world for many years, the person they have always dealt with has always been human beings!

They have never had any experience in dealing with monsters.

In the story, monsters are all the ones who kill without blinking, eat human flesh and drink wine.

Thinking of this, everyone was even more frightened.

The three scholars looked at each other, and their eyes flashed with surprise and hesitation.

"What, don't you want to appreciate the glory?"

The sharp voice suddenly became louder, and then a monkey demon with a pointed face and a monkey-headed and human body walked in. Behind him were several tall wolf demons, full of evil spirits.

Seeing this, Ning You felt a secret touch, he pinched the sword bag, and communicated with the old Taoist priest with his soul seed.

"Senior Xia, what kind of cultivation is this group of monsters?"

"This monkey demon has a ninth-grade cultivation level. Although the remaining wolf demons are not included in the grade, after enlightenment, and the monsters are already strong in physical condition, they are difficult to deal with." The old Taoist priest replied in a deep voice.

During this period, Ning You often asked the old Taoist priests about their practice issues and had a general understanding of the state of practice.

Taoist practice is roughly divided into four major realms, namely, refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into Taoism.

Among them, refining essence into qi is divided into three small realms: absorbing qi, opening meridians, and circumference, and refining qi into gods is divided into three realms: moon wheel, sun phase, dragon and tiger. As for the masters who refining spirit into defiance, the old Taoist priest has never encountered it and does not know much about it.

A higher realm of refining and merging with the Tao is even more a legendary figure.

As for monsters, the division is very simple. They are divided into nine grades, with the lowest grade and the highest grade. Among them, the ninth grade to seventh grade are collectively called small monsters, sixth grade to fourth grade, and are collectively called demon generals, and third grade to first grade, and are collectively called big monsters.

Above it is the legendary demon king, corresponding to the legendary figure of the refining and refining the emptiness and the Tao.

"It is impossible for a demon king to appear in such a wilderness. It must be the little demon who occupied the mountain as the king and called it randomly." The old Taoist priest explained, but his voice was still uneasy: "However, there must be eighth-grade monsters in the mountains that can drive the ninth-grade little demon."

"You are only in the breathing stage now, and you can't really absorb the qi into the body, refining the organs and opening the orifices. But you don't enter the flow stage. You may be thrilling tonight. It's better to be careful."

Hearing this, Ning You was secretly shocked and couldn't help but complain.

If you have a good journey, how can you encounter monsters?
