Chapter 97 A group of snakes are attacking
The weather is starting to get hot, and the snakes and insects that have been dormant for a long time are starting to get busy.
As the group hurried on the road, they encountered countless harassments and mosquito bites were unavoidable.
Finally one day, the cow was bitten by a poisonous snake.
Although Zhong Sheng drew his sword and cut the poisonous snake into two pieces, the ox cart lay there.
"Damn it."
The strong cow was lying on the ground dying and could not be saved.
"When you see blood and your throat is blocked, there is no cure."
Qingfeng Li could tell at a glance that this poisonous snake had just woken up from hibernation and had been holding back its venom all winter. It was particularly powerful.
The three of them felt heavy, knowing that there were more and more snakes and insects along the way, and someone must be behind the scenes to add fuel to the flames.
Killing the Naga Dragon Queen has attracted the attention of the girl holding the mirror.
These long insects in the grass are undoubtedly the snake girl’s natural eyeliner.
"There is a temple nearby. I'll go borrow some things and I'll be back later."
Monk Min looked at the terrain, suddenly turned around and said to the two of them.
After he left, Zhong Sheng and Li Qingfeng guarded the dying Strong Ox.
"It's better to give it a good time!"
Zhong Sheng heard the roar of the strong bull and slowly pulled out the ancient sword.
Along the way, this animal has put in a lot of effort, and I can’t bear to let it suffer anymore.
The sharp sword entered the throat, and the bull's eyes revealed relief. The blood that emerged had turned black and was as thick as ink.
"Don't get stained with poisonous blood. Cut the pieces you're stained with."
There was silence all around, except for the rustling of the grass in the wind.
"Master Li, the situation is not good, the enemy is coming."
Qingfeng Li took a few deep breaths and said, "I know."
"What the monk did just now reminded me."
"To deal with strong enemies, we must prepare in advance. I don't have two magic weapons at hand, so I can't show my strength."
Zhong Sheng asked curiously, "You have a magic weapon at home, why don't you bring it with you?"
"Did you forget to bring it?"
Qingfeng Li blushed, "What I mean is, go out and borrow one or two items."
Well, it turns out he is also a pauper.
In the evening, Monk Min returned with a pack horse carrying a lot of supplies on its back.
He only saw Zhong Sheng, not Li Qingfeng.
"Where is Fellow Daoist Li?"
"I went out to borrow money."
The monk was confused, so he led the pack horse to the front of the cart, changed the bridle, and took the reins.
"The temple is not well-off, so it gave us a hundred kilograms of fine grain."
Just as he was talking, Monk Min's arms bulged, and a small, round head emerged.
Whoosh!
A living creature landed on the ground and looked around with a lively look. It was...a golden retriever poodle.
Zhong Sheng did not expect that the monk would go out and bring back pack horses, food, and even pets.
"This dog is quite funny."
Zhong Sheng wanted to tease him, but Monk Min persuaded him to stop.
"Mr. Zhonglang, this is the Buddhist guarding spirit beast, the golden-haired tiger."
"My biggest gain from this trip was to borrow this mythical beast from the elders of the temple."
"If my dog spirit is used in conjunction with the golden retriever, its power will be doubled, and it won't hold you back in the future."
Zhong Sheng did not expect that Monk Min was usually quiet and quite self-respecting.
Seeing this, the ape and the little donkey gathered around and looked down at the little poodle.
The poodle opens its mouth to reveal its baby teeth, which means it is not easy to mess with.
However, the ape's arms were long and slender, and he grabbed the top of the melon and lifted it into the air.
"Zhizhizhi!"
The monk still wanted to maintain the dignity of the sacred beasts, but the little poodle quickly became involved with them.
At midnight, Qingfeng Li still had not returned, so the two of them continued to wait.
"There are no Taoist temples nearby. Fellow Taoist Li should go far away and look for fellow Taoists."
Although there are many Taoist audiences in the world, they are scattered across the vast land and it is difficult to see one from ten miles away.
What's more, not every Taoist temple has treasures in charge.
It is still unknown whether Qingfeng Li will be able to borrow magic weapons for this trip.
"Mr. Zhong Lang, I heard from the elders in the temple that the underworld in Heluo has not been peaceful recently."
"The Ghost King of Beimang originally supported Zheng Guo, but now that Tang Guo is about to win, it is too late to change his court."
"I heard that a ghost king came from Guanzhong some time ago."
"It's not that the fierce dragon can't cross the river, but the two ghost kings are spreading, and there will be trouble in the underworld."
Zhong Sheng thought hard, besides the second uncle, are there any other well-known ghost kings in the Guanzhong area?
"There is also King Garuda, who seems to be dead."
Hearing this sentence, Zhong Sheng's hair stood up. What's going on?
It turned out that the Tang army had captured Luoyang, the Zheng Kingdom had been destroyed, and all the emperors and ministers surrendered in unison.
King Garuda once cooked and killed the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, so he was not allowed to be pardoned.
The King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty beheaded him and abandoned his body in the market well. The people in the city rushed to throw stones, and they piled up into a mountain in an instant.
"Where's the Skinner?"
Zhong Sheng asked.
"The army of mysterious black armor soldiers rolled up, the skinned ghosts in the city disappeared, and the entire army was destroyed."
There were monks and Taoists accompanying the Tang army, so the news channels in the temple were very convenient.
Zhong Sheng took a few breaths, and the situation developed too fast. The battle in Luoyang ended, King Garuda died, and the entire army of skinned ghosts was destroyed.
Their biggest enemy during this trip was eliminated in this way.
For a moment, Zhong Sheng was a little confused. Is this journey over?
Wrong!
He suddenly remembered that the girl holding the mirror was still there, and there were still remnants left in the world.
"Where is Princess Jialuo?"
Monk Min was stunned by the question and shook his head, "I haven't heard about her whereabouts."
Among the rebellious army, the whereabouts of a warlord's child seemed insignificant.
There is no relevant record in the battle report of the Tang Army. After all, they are family members of the enemy and are not the focus of attention.
As for the temple, there is no specific whereabouts of Princess Jialuo.
"In other words, our work is not done yet."
Zhong Sheng thought deeply, "Girl holding the mirror, Princess Jialuo is still there, but her head and tail are not clean.
In the middle of the night, the two of them were so tired that they couldn't help but doze off.
Under the moonlight, the grass blew in the wind, making an inaudible rustling sound.
The ape, the little donkey, and the little poodle that just joined today are hugging each other and sleeping soundly.
No one would have thought what might happen on such a peaceful night.
Until...
Zizzizi!
The bright red letter made a unique snake hissing sound while swallowing.
