Three hundred and twentieth eight chapters take the road to push the world
Chong'an had just heard that there were demon bandits coming out, and indeed he sensed a powerful demonic aura, so he planned to go there and see how the government today fights against demons.
From what I heard from the old horse demon, it seems that there are not many such things nowadays.
And he was also very curious in his heart, how did the imperial court tame the monster so obediently.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something. He looked up at the sky and saw something like a spider's nest appearing, emitting wisps of spiritual light. It always echoed with the bracelets on his wrists and those of the people around him, while on the street
According to the above tips, some people also speeded up their pace and moved away from the direction where the big demon appeared.
He thought it was very interesting and this thing was indeed useful.
If there are eyes in the sky watching, how can the demon bandits escape?
However, just being able to find this monster does not mean that you can subdue it.
When he thought about it, the big demon was extremely destructive. Dealing with such a monster would not only cause earth-shattering but also cause a lot of commotion. If anything went wrong, he could help.
But when he arrived, he found that the real situation was different from what he thought.
The monster was a ten-foot-tall goat demon, standing on a hill in the city's garden. Around it, the city guards pulled up ropes to disperse the excited crowds who came over to watch. The guards seemed to be in a big scene.
After supervision, everyone seemed very calm.
But the sheep demon standing on the hill was a little confused when he saw the scene in front of him.
Chong'an immediately saw two Taoists dressed in casual clothes. Both of them were holding magic weapons in their hands, and they didn't look like powerful objects. The two people seemed to discuss it, and they exchanged hands. Then a Taoist priest
Walked up.
The sheep demon showed disdain and annoyance, because the two magic powers were not at the same level. The Taoist raised his hand at the sheep demon, and the magic weapon flew into the sky.
Chong'an immediately felt something, as if there was a force falling from the sky.
The big demon claimed to have magical power, but when a bright mirror in the sky illuminated it, he immediately fell to the ground. All his magical power was suppressed and he could not use it at all.
The Taoist waved his hand calmly, and the guards swarmed forward, hitting the sheep demon's joints and head with a special small hammer, and then put it on a chain and dragged it away. All the guards were in high spirits and said that there was another one in the mine.
After working hard, the team was still worried that the New Year was approaching and there were no monsters to get. This time we caught a big monster, and we can have a good year again this year.
Chong'an looked up at the sky. He didn't know what it was just now, but he was sure it was some kind of magic weapon. It might have been combined with some other means.
It seemed that because he stared for too long, it seemed to have caused some kind of reaction, so he immediately withdrew his gaze.
However, he can also imagine that this kind of thing must be more shocking. He can go to other places to inquire and ask those monsters, and he should be able to know.
At this moment, he was also listening to two guardsmen who had wandered to the side to light cigarettes and chatted.
"Where did the monster come from? It's not common to be so bold. It's rare to see such a fool nowadays."
"I heard that I have been in seclusion for hundreds of years. Not long after I came out of seclusion, I still think this world is the same as before." The guard flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said, "Times have changed."
"It looks like it's going to be dragged to the mine."
"What kind of mine? This is an old sheep demon. I think it is used for breeding and to produce more lambs. There is a lot of oil and water in here. Maybe we can all benefit from it."
The two of them chatted wordlessly.
After a while, one of them said again: "It's strange. When the imperial dynasty broke down their nests and swept their lairs, didn't they clean up these big monsters?"
"There are always fish that slip through the net. Besides, we still relied on the cooperation of the Taoist temples to find the areas that were too remote back then. Who knows if they would save it for us?"
"It makes sense. You should respect yourself."
"Hey, there's no need to raise it. You really can't figure out the secrets of heaven? Those Taoist temples won't give up the truth. It's just that the little demons back then have grown into old demons. Wait, this will happen again in the future."
Listening to Chong'an, he thought that these things seemed to be arranged by Taoist temples. The book of folk rituals only talked about folk affairs, and the historical records were not very clear.
After I came out, I saw a lot of things, but I haven't seen them in other Taoist temples.
Fortunately, in today's world, it's easy to go anywhere. Maps are drawn on the wall for you, and everything is marked. So after walking around, I saw the nearest Taoist temple, which is only about thirty years away from here.
There was a lot of land, so we went on foot.
This time I did not take the main road, but walked along the small streets and alleys. Passing by a restaurant, I saw two yellow dog monsters lying in the corner, eagerly waiting for people to feed them. One of them looked younger and wanted to go in, but was killed.
The person was kicked out.
The yellow dog saw a gaudy-dressed woman walking in with a snow-white puppy in her arms. He couldn't help but look at it a few more times, but the puppy barked at it, "You bitch, get out of here!"
The yellow dog was too angry and did not dare to talk back. He muttered a few words and returned to the old dog, saying: "I also want to find a rich master."
The old dog glanced at him and said, "You are like a dog, but you still want to sell yourself to a good family? Stop having such sweet dreams as soon as possible."
Huang Gou was unconvinced and said, "Just wait, I will show you how to behave like a dog."
Chong'an came over at this time, and the two dog demons were immediately frightened. He thought for a while, took out a bottle of elixir, put it on the ground, cupped his hands and said, "Two fellow Taoists, I want to ask you something."
"Don't dare." The two dog demons were immediately flattered and a little scared at the same time.
Chong'an said: "Don't be afraid, I just came out of the mountain and asked you some questions."
The two dog demons were a little relieved. Chong'an's demeanor did not look like that of an ordinary person. They both wagged their tails and said, "Master Tao, you can ask whatever you want."
Chong'an asked some questions, no matter what the matter, even trivial matters. He was willing to listen. After talking for more than an hour, he declined the two dog demons' offer to lead the way and left alone.
It was afternoon at this time. He passed by a teahouse and heard a voice inside: "My ancestor was a high official in the former dynasty. He practiced cultivation in the mountains for hundreds of years and came down from the mountains. With the empire that Taizu of the previous dynasty conquered, my family has eight hundred acres of land, gold mountains and silver seas."
, it’s a shame to live in a rich and noble life. Did you see, my great-grandfather also had this yellow hair on my head?”
"Come on, Lao Qi, you've been bragging about your ancestors all day, are you alone?"
"Don't tell me that I'm not good enough on my own, but I don't know if some rich relatives will ask me to inherit the family fortune one day. You won't be envious of me then."
"It's been twenty years since you said this, but I haven't seen you yet."
Chong'an just turned to the front and found rows of birds hanging in cages bragging across the cage. There were also a few frog demons squatting there. The frog demon also said: "My ancestors were also very wealthy, but it's a pity that our country
Chao Kaiji, the ancestors were all used to make medicinal materials." The other frog monsters sighed.
Chong'an found it interesting. People inside the teahouse were chatting and playing chess, and monsters were also chatting outside the teahouse. Here, humans and monsters lived together in the same room, so there was nothing contradictory about it.
At this time, someone shouted from outside, "Mr. Huang is lucky today, so I'll give you a reward." Hearing this, everyone in the teahouse ran out in a swarm.
The bird demons were all fluttering their wings, but they were unable to move forward. On the contrary, the baby demons all jumped over.
One of the harpies said with envy: "This Mr. Huang is amazing. His daughter married well. His son-in-law took care of all the building of bridges and roads in the county. Those connections are incomparable, incomparable."
Chong'an looked over and saw that Mr. Huang turned out to be a fox demon. He looked dignified and very human-like, but his speech and manners were very ordinary. He must have just made his fortune not long ago. As long as someone came up to say a few words, he would
, you will appreciate it.
At this time, a frog demon jumped up and said: "Master Huang, my surname is Huang too. Maybe our ancestors are related."
Mr. Huang slapped it down and said, "Go away, yours is a clay yellow, I am a rich yellow!"
Chong'an shook his head and didn't stop any longer. He quickened his pace and headed towards the Taoist temple. Not long after, he came to a Taoist temple that was full of incense. But after walking around, he was surprised that he didn't see anyone with magical powers, just a little bit.
The posture is only limited to strengthening the body.
However, the person guarding the Taoist temple was a crane demon in human form. He was surprised and said: "Are you a demon too?"
The crane demon was unwilling, "Hey, what's wrong with the demon? We are used everywhere now. The Taoist master doesn't want to do the hard work, but we are willing. We can find a job and can support our family, and the Taoist master can do it too."
Enjoying peace and happiness, right?" He glanced at him again and said, "Master Dao came down from the mountain not long ago, right?"
Chong'an said: "How do you know?"
Crane Yao said: "I can see people with my eyes. When I see Master Tao from a distance, I feel that you have an aura of being out of the world. This is not an ordinary person. Besides, the Tao Master who came down from the mountain is still with us."
If we talk like this, we must act accordingly, right?"
Chong'an asked: "How is your cultivation in Guanli?"
The Crane Demon shook his head and said: "How can today's Taoist masters be willing to endure hardships and swallow a few elixirs to prolong their lives? There are still some who are really capable, but they are all enshrined in the imperial court and cannot come out easily.
, comes out, it will be a major event that shakes the earth. Since the war of the country, it has not happened a few times. The most serious one was twenty years ago, when ghosts invaded the border and fought a war."
Chong'an asked around and found out that when the imperial court wiped out monsters, they thought the world would be safe, but they didn't know that without monsters, ghosts and monsters suddenly appeared and could not be wiped out. Now they have become a big harm.
.
He said with deep feeling: "All things are born, and if they fade, they will grow."
The world is like reincarnation, some things seem to have changed, but they remain the same. But as long as the world is still turning and moving forward, things that seem not to change will eventually change.
And this must be maintained by Taoism, otherwise once it is interrupted, it will go back. Thinking of this, he suddenly became enlightened and felt that he had found the meaning of practicing Taoism.
He turned around resolutely and returned to the Taoist temple.
Crane Yao said: "Master Dao is leaving now? Won't you stay a little longer?"
Chong'an looked into the sky and said: "There is no need to stay, this vast world is waiting for us to chase." As he spoke, he turned into a ray of light and shot away into the sky.
