Chapter 108: The Monk Turns Against Us
A monk in a cassock, holding a bell in his hand, suddenly appeared in the inn.
He frowned slightly and looked at everyone's expressions, which seemed to be filled with some compassion.
"Amitabha." The monk clasped his hands together and looked at Su Tan and the other two. "There's a ghost haunting this place. Why are you all coming out instead of staying inside?"
Lu Zhiheng waved his folding fan nonchalantly, his eyes passing in front of the monk, with a hint of impatience between his brows.
"You, a monk, are quite lenient."
"The innkeeper and the waiter in this inn each have their own opinions, each accusing the other of being an accomplice. One says you must stay inside, while the other says you'll die if you speak out. Why don't you just have a fight? Whoever wins will have his say."
He still doesn't give face to anyone as usual.
What you say and do depends entirely on your mood.
The monk frowned, counted with his fingers, and suddenly his expression changed.
"It's bad!" "Donors, please leave this place quickly. There are wolves all around here, and those ghosts are watching you. If you don't leave before dawn, I'm afraid that by then, this place will become a ghost town!"
The monk's eyes changed slightly, and he threw out a Buddhist bead. A shrill scream rang out, almost shattering everyone's eardrums.
Song Tingchen subconsciously looked at Su Tan's expression.
But she just frowned tightly, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Lu Zhiheng's face also darkened. The next moment, the guards inside the house ran over with pale faces and knelt on the ground with a thud, "Master... Young Master, the young lady is missing!"
Lu Zhiheng's face darkened completely. "Why would he disappear for no reason? You can't even keep an eye on a child. How do you do things?"
The guard knelt on the ground and just begged for his life.
Su Tan's face showed a rare anger, and he scolded: "Why don't you go find it quickly?!"
For some reason, Song Tingchen's heart sank. His eyes fell on Lu Zhiheng, and seeing that he only knew how to scold the servants, his brows became even more twisted into a knot.
Su Tan subconsciously looked at the monk in front of her. Her face was pale. She looked as if she was powerless and had no idea what was happening. She just wanted to ask for help. "Master, can you tell me where the child is?"
Song Tingchen narrowed his dark eyes slightly, his gaze vaguely passing over Su Tan's face, then he frowned and said, "Such a young child suddenly disappeared, I think he was abducted by the tiger demon."
Su Tan's face turned pale, and he just stared at the monk in a daze.
The monk asked Lu Zhiheng for Sui Sui's personal belongings. The thing condensed in his palm and then a ball of fire ignited, burning it completely.
The monk's expression was somewhat serious. "The child has indeed been abducted by the tiger demon. If we go there now, we can still find the child in time."
"If we were any later, I'm afraid the child would have fallen into the hands of the tiger demon."
"However... we can't have too many people going there right now, otherwise it'll easily alert the enemy. I wonder which two donors would be willing to go with me?"
Lu Zhiheng and Su Tan looked at each other and said in unison, "Master, I'll go with you!"
The monk nodded and said to Song Tingchen, "Although we must not alert the enemy, this is a dangerous place. I would like to trouble you to wait outside the inn."
Song Tingchen frowned, but said nothing. He just nodded with a cold expression.
…
Lu Zhiheng and Su Tan followed the monk all the way forward and finally came to the woods. At this moment, crows were circling on the branches, constantly making "ah ah" sounds, as if giving a warning.
It was clearly a very cold day, but Lu Zhiheng and Su Tan heard a clear hissing sound.
That was the sound of a poisonous snake rubbing its scales and spitting out its tongue.
When they walked under a locust tree, the monk stopped, suddenly turned around, and gave Su Tan and Lu Zhiheng a strange smile.
Su Tan seemed completely oblivious, his face still showing signs of anxiety. "Master, why don't you leave?"
Lu Zhiheng's brows were almost twisted into a rope. He looked at the monk and asked, "But the child is here?"
The monk slowly turned around, his eyes fell on Lu Zhiheng and Su Tan's faces, and a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his lips.
A thick black aura emanated from his entire body. He stared at Su Tan and Lu Zhiheng greedily, with a sinister smile on his lips.
"I've been waiting for you two for a long time."
"It's really difficult to get both of you to come out together."
"Fortunately, God will not let down those who work hard."
"Hey, old bald donkey, this is ours. Even if you want to steal it, there has to be a first come first served principle."
The innkeeper and the waiter bared their sharp white fangs, with black energy surging from their bodies. They licked their lips with their scarlet tongues and stared at Su Tan and Lu Zhiheng greedily.
To be precise, they were staring at the jewelry and clothes on the two of them.
"This woman is mine. You men can do whatever you want with her."
Another voice was heard, accompanied by heavy footsteps. The two groups of people present showed a tricky look, staring at it eagerly.
"Tiger...Master Tiger Immortal..."
The monk, the shopkeeper, and the waiter swallowed silently, subconsciously took a few steps back, and dared not say anything more.
A gorgeous tiger swung its tail, slowly opened its mouth, and swept its eyes over the three people.
The three of them shuddered instantly, and fell to their knees subconsciously with a thud.
The bald donkey bit his lip, his eyes evil and resentful, fixed on Su Tan, and suddenly raised the corner of his lip, "Master Tiger Immortal, if you want to eat this woman, you don't have to do it yourself."
"How about I dig out this woman's heart for you? Please spare me a hand. I will die for you, even if it means going through fire and water."
As he spoke, he stared at Su Tan intently, just waiting for the tiger demon to let go so that he could pounce and tear Su Tan to pieces.
The soul and body of a cultivator are both very nutritious. If you take a bite of this, you might be able to transform from an evil ghost into the terrifying Green Ghost.
"Master Tiger Immortal, we don't want this woman, we only want that man's body!"
The shopkeeper and the waiter quickly expressed their loyalty, their dark eyes gleaming with a chilling murderous light, but more of it was greed.
When Lu Zhiheng stepped into the inn, they recognized him as a member of the royal family at a glance.
Gold and jade are precious and unparalleled in the world.
If these two were to take over this body, they would be able to enjoy all the wealth and prosperity!
As for Su Tan...
I originally wanted to share her flesh and blood, but it was a pity that Cheng Yaojin showed up halfway.
But there was no way. Even a roar from the tiger demon was enough to shatter the two of them into pieces.
No matter what, they didn't dare to snatch the body that the tiger demon had set his eyes on.
The tiger demon swung its tail, exhaled cold air from its nose, and swept its tiger eyes over the people who were talking.
The three of them instantly sensed a dangerous aura. The bald donkey immediately stepped forward, smiling ingratiatingly, and suddenly said, "Master Tiger Immortal, I know you want to eat baby girls and women. This man's daughter has disappeared for no apparent reason. I can help you find her. All I ask is that you give me a bear paw."
"The missing child? Are you talking about me?"
