He immediately thought of what his master said to him when he went down the mountain. 1357924?
The most deceitful thing in the world was not a monster, but a beautiful girl. You could harden your heart to a monster, but you couldn't say a word of rejection to a beautiful girl.
Xiao Sheng didn't care at first, but now, when he saw Yunhuai's clear and transparent eyes, he couldn't say his original words. It was as if everything was natural.
Yunhuai didn't know the complicated thoughts in Xiao Sheng's mind. In order to prevent Xiao Sheng from grabbing Sanniang, she held Xiao Sheng tightly and whispered in his ear, "Master, can you protect me? I'm so scared. "
Jiujiu's fingers were slender and white, but they were soft as if they were boneless. They were smooth but indescribably comfortable. It was as if a small feather was constantly tickling his heart. Xiao Sheng only felt that the heart sutra he had been reading for more than 20 years was so weak in front of Jiujiu that it could not withstand a single blow. The only thing he could feel in his body was his palm.
When Xiao Sheng came back to his senses, Sanniang had already run away without a trace, and he was pulled into the inn by Jiujiu. Looking at Xiao Bai, who was carefully placed on the bed by Jiujiu, Xiao Sheng frowned.
Although his magic power wasn't as strong as Lin Xiu's, he could still see the strong aura of a divine beast from Xiao Bai.
Because he discovered Xiao Bai's existence, Xiao Sheng's face instantly became solemn. He suddenly thought that if she was an ordinary girl, how could she go out in the middle of the night and be near that monster? She even appeared and pulled him away to stop him. Could it be that this girl was in cahoots with that fox demon?
But as soon as this thought appeared, he suppressed it.
Not to mention Jiujiu's youthful appearance, just her pair of clear eyes that were as clear as the dew of a mountain spring showed that she was not the kind of person with a heavy heart. If she was in cahoots with the fox demon, then he could just give up on his pair of eyes. However, if she was not in cahoots with the fox demon, then why did she stop him from subduing the demon?
Xiao Sheng was raised by Jiujiu in Lin Lang Mountain the moment he was born and was far away from the troubles of the mortal world. His thoughts were extremely pure and his emotions were all written on his face. When he suspected Jiujiu, his face naturally revealed a look of vigilance and doubt.
Jiujiu looked at the happy and angry Xiao Sheng and the corners of her mouth twitched. Really, with such an obvious expression, did he really think she was a fool?
Jiujiu's original intention was to teach Sanniang a lesson, but now there was Xiao Sheng, who wanted to kill Sanniang. Furthermore, Xiao Sheng was obviously backed by the current boss, Lin Xiu, so she naturally could not offend Xiao Sheng.
Therefore, this matter must be discussed at length.
Jiujiu blinked, thought for a moment, and decided to be honest with Xiao Sheng.
"Big Brother Daoist, are you really here for the Sand Demon?" Jiujiu's voice was crisp, just like her skin now, youthful and innocent, with a touch of coquettishness in her innocence and was especially seductive.
The tip of Xiao Sheng's ears instantly became a little hot. He pursed his lips and nodded rather reservedly.
Jiujiu saw that Xiao Sheng did not ask any questions and knew that Xiao Sheng did not suspect her, so she continued, "Big Brother Daoist, my name is Jiujiu. What's your name?"
"Xiao Sheng."
"Big Brother Xiao Sheng, can you not kill the demon?" Jiujiu blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Xiao Sheng pitifully. She sniffled and squeezed out two balls of tears, saying pitifully, "That demon is wearing my skin now. I want my skin back."
When he heard Jiujiu say that the skin on Sanniang's body was hers, Xiao Sheng almost pulled out his sword, but when he received Jiujiu's watery eyes, he was instantly stunned.
Jiujiu's aura was pure, like mountain spring water. Furthermore, he had been with her for so long, but he did not realize that she was a demon. It was obvious that she had not killed anyone in her life. Also, from her skin, he could guess that she was a painted demon by the Three Lives River.
Painted demons made a living by painting skins and rarely appeared in the outside world.
Xiao Sheng suppressed the shock in his heart and took a deep breath. He looked at Jiujiu and said, "You're a painted demon."
Jiujiu nodded and looked at Xiao Sheng pitifully.
Xiao Sheng's heart softened when he saw Jiujiu's pitiful eyes. He couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter with the skin you just mentioned?"
Jiujiu said, "That demon is called Sanniang. She's a three-thousand-year-old fox demon. A hundred years ago, she came to me and asked me to paint her a beauty's skin. I gave her one. Because she liked the skin I painted for her, we became friends. Ten years ago, I came to the human world because I wanted to play. I accidentally met Sanniang. Sanniang invited me to her house to reminisce about old times, but I didn't know that she didn't want to reminisce about old times with me. She really liked my skin."
Jiujiu paused, then continued, "I drank a cup of tea she gave me and then fainted. When I woke up, she fed me medicine, skinned me, and left me in the wilderness. If I hadn't met Xiao Bai, I would've been beaten to death."
Xiao Sheng was stunned. He hadn't expected there to be such a story. He looked at Yunhuai with sympathy. "You're here to get your skin back?"
Jiujiu nodded. "I painted that skin for myself. I must get it back."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she added, "My skin has been stained with my blood. It has already become one with me. Without my blood to nourish it, it will disappear into the world in ten years. Sanniang has worn my skin for ten years. It's already at the end of its life. Now, Sanniang wants to use her blood to nourish the skin and extend its lifespan."
Xiao Sheng hadn't expected that Sanniang would kill people because of a piece of skin. He was stunned for a moment, but after a moment, his expression became more determined.
Murder was murder. No matter what the reason was, it was murder. So, there was nothing to say.
Jiujiu said, "A skin that has been nourished by blood can last for half a month. During this time, Sanniang won't kill anyone. Brother Xiao Sheng, can you help me get my skin back?"
Jiujiu was clearly much older than him, but when Jiujiu looked at him with her big, watery eyes and called him brother in a clear voice, Xiao Sheng couldn't refuse. After a long time, he finally nodded.
Jiujiu, who had received Xiao Sheng's agreement, immediately revealed a sincere smile. She took the initiative to give up her bed and pushed Xiao Sheng. "Brother Xiao Sheng, go to sleep. Xiao Bei and I will keep watch for you."
Xiao Sheng …
Although Xiao Sheng refused several times, Jiujiu still smiled and told him to sleep on the bed. Xiao Sheng had no choice but to lie on the bed. Jiujiu hugged Xiao Bai and sat in front of the window for the whole night.
