Chapter 55 Endeavor
Li Chuan thanked Old Man Lin.
During the chat, he revealed his intention to abandon secular affairs and devote himself to studying. He said that in order to get up early, he borrowed a big rooster from a friend, and he would listen to the rooster to study in the future.
While praising Li Chuan for his ambition, Old Man Lin thought about it and asked, "Then this land can't be left uncultivated. It's such a pity."
Li Chuan felt that instead of Rather than giving the land to people you don't know, it's better to give it to Old Man Lin's family, who have been neighbors for many years and know everything about it.
After that, they agreed on the terms. From now on, Old Man Lin's family will farm Li Chuan's land.
The harvest is forty-six cents, and Li Chuan’s four old men are six.
After the conversation, both of them were very happy. Old man Lin remembered another thing and said, "Speaking of roosters, a chicken thief appeared in Yunqiao Township recently."
"Chicken thief?" Li Chuan thought of the chicken that was lost in Carpenter Liu's house a few months ago. He said, "I know that the rooster in Carpenter Liu's house was stolen. He suspected that it was stolen by his neighbor Wang's family, and they got into a fight."
"It was very early. What I am talking about is that in the past half month, chickens from several families have been stolen. The ones I know include the Sang family, the Hu family, and... ..." Old Man Lin said to several people in succession, "Someone stayed up for several nights in order to catch the chicken thief, but it turned out that he was not a human, but a monster, a monster that specializes in stealing chickens."
"Monster? What kind?" Li Chuan was curious.
Old man Lin said: "I heard that it is a nine-headed evil dog. It is so powerful that all the men in the Hu family have been scratched."
Nine heads make me scared when I hear it.
Seeing Li Chuan's expression, Old Man Lin comforted him and said, "You said you borrowed a rooster, so I'll tell you that when you go to bed at night, it's best to put the chicken in the cage. He is a scholar in the town, protected by pure Yang, and monsters should not dare to go to your place."
Li Chuan thanked Old Man Lin and told him about the nine-headed evil dog when he returned home. He stood aside and asked: "Do you know this monster?"
Gong Er shook his head, "I haven't heard of it before. Is it a new monster?"
Pan San said: "There is a dog monster in the Shiqiao area. Could it be her?"
Gong Er repeatedly denied, "It's impossible, it's impossible. She has a great personality and has never hurt anyone. How could she be a chicken thief?"
After asking and finding nothing, Li Chuan told them to be careful. Be careful and practice well.
The next few days passed peacefully.
After Gong Er Pang San passed through Xuan Shui Mountain, he was very eager to improve his strength. He practiced or practiced every day. Every time Li Chuan wanted to use a pot to move them out, he would be stared at by two pairs of resentful eyes. Li Chuan was embarrassed to cook, but when he was eating, he still refused to give in and did not reduce his appetite at all.
They also told Li Chuan that they would go to the Four Gods Palace to listen to sermons after winter, and Li Chuan naturally agreed.
Seeing Gong Er and Pang San working so hard, Li Chuan also wanted to make progress.
In which direction should we move forward?
Really going to study? So sleepy, forget it.
Study the "Pattern Sutra"? I can’t understand it, I still can’t understand it, and without the help of the red light in the secret realm, when I try to enter the mysterious state, I fail five or six times out of ten. Li Chuan is probably because he has lost his vitality and is too weak. As a result, I eat and sleep better.
Chat with a mouse? After that day, the mouse disappeared without a trace and could not be called out no matter how loud it was. If I hadn't accidentally discovered him stealing food, I would have thought he had run away.
Thinking about it, Zhu Qingyun and Lao laughed again. I wonder if they have arrived in the capital, and what kind of disturbance will be caused by the death of the two big demons.
......At this time, Zhu Qingyun had returned to Qintian Prison. She told her master Gong Wuguang everything that happened on Xuanshui Mountain.
After some grooming, she seemed to have regained her energy, but her hair was still bald. If you look closely, you can see that hair has already sprouted out, but it will probably take some time for it to grow completely?
Gong Wuguang sat on the Eight Immortals Chair and listened quietly to Zhu Qingyun's story. He waited until she had finished speaking before he started to ask questions.
“Do you think there is something wrong with that secret realm?”
“Yes, it’s very weird,” Zhu Qingyun replied: “I felt a clear killing intent from that sword intention, and Su Xiang also made me feel very uncomfortable that day."
"I didn't expect that a Shuangye relic would cause so many things," Gong Wuguang looked relaxed. "I will send someone to investigate Xunhua's matter. If it is true, let the Frost Leaf relic be released. You return to Xuanshui Mountain as soon as possible, contact the local government, and carry out demon suppression. Don't let the remnants of the black-horned monster come out to harm the people. .”
"Understood!" Zhu Qingyun understood the pros and cons.
"I will leave soon to meet you."
"Yes." Zhu Qingyun replied.
"What kind of person do you think he is when you come into contact with the heir of "The Classic of Patterns"?" Gong Wuguang asked.
Zhu Qingyun replied: "Very brave, very bold, and very greedy for life and afraid of death."
...
That night, after Li Chuan had dinner, he felt that lighting candles was expensive, so he went to bed early to rest.
Having slept for half the night, he heard the crow of a rooster, crowing, crowing, crowing. He was so upset that he opened the quilt and walked out with his shoes, planning to meet Gong Er. After some reasoning, when he walked out, he saw a small black shadow running up the wall and escaping.
Gong Er, on the other hand, held his head high and looked very proud.
Li Chuan asked: "What's going on? A chicken thief?"
Gong Er said: "I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly felt something tugging on my hair. When I opened my eyes, I saw it was a little little demon that was still in its infancy. I roared twice and scared it away. "
Is the nine-headed evil dog just a puppy?
Seeing that Li Chuan's expression was not very good, Gong Er asked, "Brother, do you want me to catch him back?"
Li Chuan was woken up while sleeping soundly and had a headache. , he rubbed his brows and said, "No need, you've already beaten him away, I'm afraid he won't dare to come back again." He looked around and asked, "Where is the third brother?"
Gong Er Said: "The third brother went to the stream to practice. He prefers to practice in the flowing water."
Li Chuan waited, but there was no other movement, so he said, "I'll go back and lie down for a while, and you can take a rest."
After saying that, Li Chuan went back to the room, covered his head and continued sleep.
As soon as I regained some sleepiness, I heard the rooster crow again, crowing, crowing, crowing, and then there was a sound of pinging bells, which was quite lively.
Li Chuan lifted up the quilt and walked out. This time he saw two black shadows running up the wall and running out. The yard was in a mess.
Seeing Li Chuan coming, Gong Er quickly said: "That vicious dog just now is here again, and he also brought a helper. Don't worry, brother, I beat them away again. This time, they will definitely not Dare to come again.”
