The Great Enlightenment

Chapter 484
Jiangzhou Prefecture, Jiangling County.

The rain was getting worse, the old temple eaves and roof were crumbling, and the few remaining wooden planks made loud noises from time to time, as if they would collapse at any time under the heavy rain.

"heavy rain!"

With a creak, the rotten wooden door was pushed away forcefully, and the biting cold wind swept in with the violent rain, almost extinguishing the fire under the Buddha statue in the temple.

Sitting cross-legged beside the fire was a young beggar in ragged clothes. His bone age was only about ten years old, but his expression had a mature and calm expression that did not match his age. He picked up a piece of firewood and put it in the bonfire in front of him.

The person who pushed the door and came in was a weak monster with a tall bull's head. He was dressed in tattered armor, closed the wooden temple door behind him forcefully, sat down beside the beggar, and said with lingering fear: "It's okay." I found a shelter from the rain, otherwise I, Lao Niu, would have died tragically under such a terrible sky."

Although the so-called "temple gate" is just a piece of broken wood, it can slightly block the storm outside. As the little beggar kept putting firewood into the fire, the narrow temple gradually warmed up.

The Shang Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty spanned a small half of Nanzhan Buzhou, and there were countless creatures under its control. Whether it was gods, monsters, or Buddhist saints and ghosts, they all had to abide by the regulations of the Shang Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty.

This bull-headed demon is obviously the most humble coolie monster. If such a terrifying celestial rain is coming, if he can't find a place to hide from the rain in a short time, it is very likely that he will be directly soaked by the body ghost in the celestial phenomenon. Spirit dies.

I don't know how long it took, the bull-headed monster leaned over the huge bull's head while roasting the warm bonfire, and said with a silly smile: "Little brother, do you have food here? I haven't filled my stomach for three days, old cow."

The fluctuation of the monster power above its soul is extremely weak, at most it is equivalent to the state of returning to the true and gathering essence of ordinary creatures. Looking at the appearance of this monster, its body is obviously an ordinary beast. Even cultivating to the state of semi-transformation is a luxury.

The little beggar glanced sideways at the bull-headed monster, and said angrily: "I didn't throw you out, it's good enough to let you shelter here from the wind and rain, you dare to ask me for food?"

The bull-headed monster showed bitterness, lowered his voice a bit, and said muffledly: "Little brother, you have to take pity on me. My old cow doesn't know anything else, at least I have two strengths. When the wind and rain subside, I will How about repairing this temple for you?"

The little beggar lazily leaned under the stone platform of the Buddha statue, squinting at the bull-headed monster, playing with an ordinary wooden token in his hand, and said: "If you continue to entangle me, I will report to the county magistrate, By then..."

Seeing the wooden talisman, the bull-headed monster felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He directly pushed the Jinshan upside-down jade pillar and knelt down, with a look of fear on his face: "Wait a minute, little brother! I'd rather starve to death, old cow, than die." I won't bother you any more!"

The territory of the Great Tang Dynasty is too large, and there are countless creatures of various ethnic groups living in it. As long as this wooden token is in the territory of the Great Tang Dynasty, you can go to the state capital where you are to get it.

Once this wooden order talisman is activated, the government soldiers of the county where it is located will rush here within a few breaths. If they find something that violates the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, these extremely powerful government soldiers have the right to arrest them on the spot. beheaded.

The little beggar didn't have the slightest level of cultivation, but he was never afraid of the bull-headed monster in the half-transformed realm, precisely because of the presence of soldiers from the Jiangling government in the county.

That night.

The torrential downpour became more and more turbulent, and there was no sign of stopping at all. The crumbling temple made a thrilling "squeak" sound from time to time, and it seemed that it would really collapse at any time.

By this time, there were even three walls with water seepage, and the dilapidated temple gate was already filled with rainwater more than ten feet inward. , recklessly harvesting the little warmth left in the temple.

There were only a few pieces of firewood left under the Buddha statue, and the little beggar sneezed, obviously suffering from the wind and cold. He wrapped himself in the ragged cloth clothes, and his eyes fell on the dusty stone platform of the Buddha statue.

The little beggar stretched out his somewhat dirty arm, groped for a while at the corner of a stone platform with less dust, and took out a small handful of dry and hard spirit grain.

He looked sideways at the sleeping bull-headed monster, and laughed at himself: "You stupid cow, can't you see that I am a down-and-out beggar? These few spiritual grains are my last ration."

While speaking, his eyes fell on the blood-stained arm of the bull-headed monster, he stopped talking, a trace of complexity appeared in his expression, he stretched out his leg and kicked the bull-headed monster fiercely: "Don't Sleep again!"

The bull-headed monster woke up in a daze, and muttered indistinctly: "Little brother, have you eaten yet?"

A monster like him who was cultivated with beasts could not find blood food at all in the Tang Dynasty, and was suppressed by the luck of the Tang Dynasty. It was even extremely difficult to absorb the vitality of the world and cultivate. It still needs to be full of spiritual grass and spiritual grass, otherwise its original demon power will become weaker and weaker, and eventually its sanity will be lost, and it will turn into a beast.

The little beggar threw two dry and hard spirit grains, and said coldly, "Hurry up and eat."

The bull-headed monster smelled the scent of spiritual grains between its nose and mouth, and immediately woke up from a nap, opened its eyes like copper bells, grabbed the two spiritual grains in its hands, and put them into its mouth in a hurry. fill in.

"Little brother, is there anything else?"

With a "gudu", the bull-headed monster chewed and swallowed the two spiritual grains, and looked at the little beggar eagerly.

After seeing the few spiritual grains left in the little beggar's hand, the bull-headed monster was stunned for a moment, with a somewhat hesitant expression, and said, "So you haven't eaten either..."

The little beggar casually put a piece of spiritual grain into his mouth, chewed it, and said, "In my opinion, this heavy rain will last for dozens of days at least. It’s better to fill your stomach, more or less can accompany me to relieve boredom.”

Hearing this, the bull-headed monster's complexion became extremely ugly, and he murmured: "Why did this heavy rain last for so long! In this way, don't you and I must die!?"

The little beggar snorted, stopped talking, leaned under the stone platform of the Buddha statue, and slowly closed his eyes.

The bull-headed monster stood up a little anxiously, and when he saw the fire that was about to go out, he couldn't help becoming more impatient.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the dilapidated Buddha statue above the little beggar's head, and he couldn't help saying in a muffled voice, "Little brother, what kind of Buddha statue is this?"
