"Huang Lao Wu, I advise you not to incite everyone to do stupid things here," the shriveled old man sneered, "Mortals are indeed nothing special, but don't forget that there are still cultivators. Those experts bought by the human imperial court are all eyeing us country monsters covetously. We just need an excuse to act."
"Hmph, Old Chai, you're an old man with half a foot in the coffin. What do you know!" The punk named Huang Lao Wu stared at his old rival in disdain, "The human imperial court has long been gone, and those cultivator experts have all disappeared. Only a coward like you is so timid!"
After saying that, he turned around, ignoring Old Chai's angry look, and said loudly to the onlooking monsters, "I'll tell you the truth, before I came here, I went to the human construction site and caused a ruckus. Look, I'm still intact! The era of humans has long passed, and now it's time for us monsters to rise! "
Who would have thought that this guy was so ambitious.
Xu Shenxing frowned and motioned for Mo Li to block his view. Then, he shrank into a corner and called Xu Feng.
"Hey, what's the matter, master? Have you rescued that tenant? " "What?"
"Rescue my ass! I'll settle this with you in two days. Now, check what happened at the development site at the foot of Crimson Cloud Mountain and how many people were injured or killed. "
"Damn, you're so arrogant even when you're asking for help. Aren't you afraid that I'll kick you?" "Alright.
At worst, I'll just ignore this matter. You'll regret it when it happens. "
After all, Xu Feng was a civil servant who was in charge of this. If Xu Shenxing was in charge of this matter purely out of a sense of responsibility, then for Xu Feng, it was purely out of obligation.
Although he didn't know what Xu Shenxing was dealing with, from Xu Shenxing's past experience, it was obvious that he was solving a supernatural problem that ordinary people couldn't interfere with. It was reasonable for him to lend a helping hand.
"Okay, I'll check it out, but you'd better not have too much hope. After all, that's not under my jurisdiction." "
At the same time, the argument between the Huang family and the Chai family began to heat up. Thanks to them, no one cared about Xu Shenxing, a stranger who was hiding in the corner.
"You brats who have never experienced being hunted by cultivators have no idea how terrifying those human cultivators are!" Old Chai shouted himself hoarse. He pointed his trembling finger at Huang Lao Wu's nose. Blue veins popped out on his wrinkled forehead, "Let's not talk about other things. We have the Bailu Temple above us. You should know about the cultivation of those cow noses … Can't they touch us? No, it's just that they don't even bother to touch us! "
"Maybe they're just strong on the outside but weak on the inside …" Speaking of the Bailu Temple, Huang Lao Wu, who was so arrogant just a moment ago, was also a little scared. He argued with a lack of confidence, "After all, we haven't seen them appear in the world for hundreds of years."
"Not born? It's just that they don't care about us who are at the foot of the mountain. Now, they are at least a hundred miles away from us for their training! " Old Chai saw that he had finally suppressed the other party's arrogance. He could not help but continue, "Let's not talk about those Bailu Temple disciples who are traveling around. Even those people in the temple are not people we can afford to offend! Two days ago, the main hall of the Bailu Temple ascended to the sky. I'm not the only one who saw that, right? It's obvious that they intend to fly into the astral wind layer and collect the astral wind essence to help their cultivation! Even if they don't succeed in the end, tell me, except for the Master Hong Ye, who has the cultivation to enter the astral wind layer and escape unscathed? "
The monsters looked at each other. They were completely frightened by Old Chai.
Qin Xingyan was covering for Xu Shenxing who was talking on the phone. At the same time, he was listening to the little monsters talking about the incident of the main hall of the Bailu Temple ascending to the sky two days ago. Most of the little monsters were very afraid of this and exclaimed that the Bailu Temple was invincible …
"Then what do you think we should do? Let me say this first, I'm not moving. And even if we can move, the Master Hong Ye can't move. We can't just watch the Master Hong Ye's real body be destroyed by humans! "
Old Fifth Huang was completely listless this time, but his mouth was still unconvinced as he spoke.
"The Master Hong Ye's real body is a thousand-year-old Red Leaf Maple. It's the one we passed through when we came in. It's also the oldest monster on Crimson Cloud Mountain."
As the tour guide, Sister Wan 'er very competently inserted a paragraph of explanation, "Some of the little monsters have seen the humans' development plan. The Master Hong Ye's real body is also included in the list of things that need to be cut down."
"It doesn't matter. Donor Huang, you don't have to worry about me. Right or wrong, success or failure is nothing. I've stayed here for 1,362 years, 7 months, and 13 days. I've already seen through the mortal world and life and death." Master Hong Ye, who had been sitting in the middle like a meditating old monk, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Back then, Yun Guanyu wanted me to abandon Buddhism and enter Dao, so that I could guard the Formation Eye of the Mountain Guarding Formation for his White Deer Temple. I didn't agree, and was almost killed by him. Now, it's only my real body that has been destroyed. I don't mind … Maybe without my physical body, my Buddha's heart can be more enlightened. Why should we get involved in the human's affairs?"
Although he didn't say it explicitly, what he meant was that even if his real body was destroyed, he hoped that the monsters wouldn't fight with the humans, so that they wouldn't be killed.
Those little monsters praised Master Hong Ye's righteousness. Only Huang Lao Wu's expression changed several times. In the end, he punched the bluestone table, leaving a fist mark on the table that had been soaked in Demon Aura for several years and had become extremely hard.
"You ungrateful bastards. I don't believe that you don't know what it means to a plant monster like Master Hong Ye if his real body is destroyed! Pat your conscience and tell me, who here hasn't received the kindness of Master Hong Ye? I'm different from you. If it weren't for Master Hong Ye's help when I was in trouble, my Huang family would have been cut off long ago! Today, even if I have to give up my head and burn down the Bailu Temple, I will protect Master Hong Ye's real body from being destroyed! "
When Huang Lao Wu finished speaking, his shamate head had completely turned into a weasel's. It seemed that he was too agitated to maintain his human form. He bowed to Master Hong Ye. "If anything happens to my family, I hope that Master Hong Ye will take good care of my child, Huang Ying!"
After he finished speaking, he leaped out of the hall and disappeared from the courtyard like a gust of yellow wind.
"Hello, are you still there?" It was only then that Xu Feng's voice sounded from the phone again. "I've checked. There was an accident at the construction site yesterday. Many of the scaffolding collapsed. The excavator and crane also had some inexplicable problems. "Yes."
"Is that so?" Xu Shenxing stared at the sky outside the courtyard. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"But there's one thing that's strange. Normally, at least eleven or twelve people would die in such a big accident. But yesterday, only one person broke his arm. It's considered a serious injury. The others only had some abrasions at most … You should know that yesterday's accident didn't happen in the middle of the night. It happened suddenly during normal work. Many people on the scaffolding fell from five or six stories, but nothing happened. They were just a little frightened." "Oh.
I see. I understand. "
"If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up … F * ck, Xinzhu, wait, that can't explode … beep beep"
Hearing the busy tone from the phone, Xu Shenxing put down his broken phone and sighed.
Seeing that Xu Shenxing had finished his call, Qin Xingyan came over and asked softly, "What do we do next?"
"Let's continue shopping." Mo Li also came over and suggested.
Xu Shenxing pushed away Mo Li's little face, which was covered in grilled fish sauce, and replied, "We'll go back to the Bailu Temple first to prepare … Oh right, Qin Xingyan, have you ever been a shaman?"
"… What?"
