Chapter 15: Are You the Invincible Blood Demon?
Mo Bei's whole body shook, fortunately Gu Dao gave Mo Bei a divine jump, blocking this terrible sword!
"What the junior said is all true. Heaven and earth can bear witness!" Mo Bei's heart was racing wildly, his hands hanging at his sides were already soaked with sweat, but he continued expressionlessly.
The middle-aged man didn't say another word, staring fixedly at Mo Bei's face, as if trying to find a flaw from his expression.
His back was like a porcupine's quill, his heart hung in his throat, and he still had to put on an expressionless face.
Half a beat later, the middle-aged man's sharp gaze gradually softened, and a smile was drawn at the corner of his mouth: "Hmm, identity verification passed!"
In an instant, a golden light rose and shone on Mo Bei's body, lingering for a long time before disappearing, leaving Mo Bei unscathed!
The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Golden light shines on your body, nothing's wrong with you. Since you've met my master Tianlang, that's fate, go ahead."
Upon hearing this, Mo Bei secretly let out a long sigh.
Finally passed the first test, almost got caught.
"And you," the middle-aged man turned his head and pointed at Niu Deng: "You also follow me, the rest of you can leave now."
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man turned around and gave up his position. Mo Bei's expression changed slightly as he hastily went over.
"Zhang Bo, give the Ling Chong to me. You all leave too, and after you go back, tell Father that I have already joined the Tai Xu Sect." Niu Deng smiled, took the iron cage from Zhang Bo's hand, and quickly followed up, entering the suspension ladder.
Old Zhang's eyes turned red as he watched the elevator slowly rise, waving his hand at it repeatedly. His voice was hoarse: "Young master, take care of yourself."
"Alright, Zhang Bo, you can head back now!" Niu Deng shouted out loud from the suspension ladder.
It wasn't until quite a while later that Niu Deng withdrew his head again, muttering to himself in a low voice: "Huh, Zhang Bonyan is old and weak, following me on this road has also made him suffer a lot... Ah, right!"
Niu Deng's gaze turned to Mo Bei, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Mo Bei, are you really the Mo Bei who killed Qing Guo's Jing An Wang?"
Three young men also gathered around, all with a curious and slightly apprehensive look at Mo Bei.
One of the bald youths smiled and said, "Awesome! I never thought that today I would actually see the infamous Blood Demon! I am Bai Ming from the White Family of Qing Guo."
The youth with a mole at the corner of his mouth nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's really amazing! Mo Bei, how did you manage to kill the King of Jing'an from among thousands of troops and under the eyes of three great masters?"
Mo Bei's expression remained calm, and he smiled faintly, responding concisely: "Charge in, take their heads, then charge back out."
"Awesome!" Niu Deng exclaimed, his eyes shining brightly with admiration and respect.
"What a feat! Among thousands of troops, you killed thousands without saying a word, and directly took the head of King Jing'an. I truly admire you! I am Niu Deng from the Xiong State's Niu family. Today, I have the honor to meet the Blood Demon!"
And that young man carrying the Azure Wolf's Eye, however, snorted disdainfully: "What's so impressive? It's just killing a few ordinary people. I, Long Hao Tian, can do it too!"
Mo Bei slightly nodded in response, but in her heart, she was secretly laughing.
I don't have such great abilities, it's all thanks to my master Gu Dao Yi.
Suddenly, "Squeak... squeak..."
A shrill cry of alarm came from the iron cage in Niu Deng's hand.
Mo Bei subconsciously lowered his head to look, only to discover that Niu Deng's iron cage actually contained a small white-haired monkey, which was mischievously jumping up and down. It stretched out a paw from the cage bars, baring its teeth and making strange calls at Mo Bei while brandishing its claws.
"What is this thing?" Mo Bei asked curiously, pursing his lips.
"Oh." Niu Deng raised the cage with his left hand and fished out a golden bean from his pocket with his right hand, tossing it into the cage. The little monkey let out a strange cry, stretched out its two paws, snatched the bean, and began to savor it contentedly, finally calming down.
"This is a three-eyed demon monkey's cub, it's my spiritual pet. This little guy is so mischievous, if I don't keep an eye on him for a moment, he can run away without a trace."
Niu Deng's playful heart suddenly arose, and he gently tapped the little monkey's head.
The monkey narrowed his eyes, gave Niu Deng a white eye, showing a hint of displeasure, stretched out his claws to swat away his hand, then shifted his body and turned around, sitting with his back to Niu Deng, diligently gnawing on the beans, looking extremely spirited.
"So it was."
Mo Bei's gaze swept over the cages in the hands of the young men on the scene, revealing a hint of surprise and curiosity, asking: "Then, how should these spiritual pets be raised?"
Niu Deng exchanged a glance with the three boys, their faces turned strange, and they closed their mouths, obviously not wanting to say anything.
Seeing this, Mo Bei also knew better than to ask further questions.
Before everyone could say a few words, Mo Bei's eyes unconsciously swept around the surroundings. The cliff top was over a hundred feet wide, with lush greenery and fragrant grasses, it was very beautiful.
Standing here and looking out, you can take in all the scenery of Ziyun Mountain at a glance.
On the top of the cliff, there were already several tents, with smoke curling up.
The middle-aged man waved his hand: "We will be stationed here for a few days to rest; when the time comes, we will take you to the Tai Xu Sect."
"You all choose your own places to go." After saying this, the middle-aged man left Mo Bei and others in the original place and turned away.
That day, people kept coming, and by nightfall, the number of people had increased from five to thirteen.
……
The night fell gradually, and all the scenes in the world were gradually dyed black by the night.
The stars are twinkling, filling the sky, and the continuous mountains are covered with a layer of pale blue, hazy and cold starlight, as if they were wearing a semi-transparent blue gauze, extremely beautiful.
On the grassy top of the cliff, outside the tent, piles of bonfires were stacked, and wisps of smoke curled up, occasionally wafting over enticing aromas of roasted meat. Some people even brought out seasonings, fully prepared.
These identified young people are all in groups of three or five, gathered around the bonfire, sitting on the ground, talking and laughing, what a lively scene.
In comparison, Mo Bei's side seems much quieter.
He sat on a branch as thick as a man's thigh, leaning against the trunk of the tree, untied his bundle and took out two steamed buns, and began to gnaw them with the mountain spring water in the gourd.
"If I had known that I would have to stay at Purple Cloud Cliff for a few more days, I should have set up a tent. It would also save me from being exposed to the wind and rain."
Mo Bei muttered to himself, his eyes slowly scanning over the iron cages beside these young men.
"Nothing can be done!"
A bright and clear voice slowly rose from not far away. Mo Bei subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, and saw Niu Deng slowly walking out of the night, coming to under the tree.
On his shoulder, the little white monkey occasionally jumped from his left shoulder to his right shoulder, pinched his ears, pulled his hair, and then happily chirped up, extremely intimate.
"Hey!" Niu Deng waved his hand and revealed a kind smile: "Today's cold wind is quite strong, it's really chilly. Come warm up by the fire, my tent is big enough to squeeze in two or three people, why don't you squeeze in with me?"
In this Taoist sect, it's also a good thing if you can find one or two people who are genuinely interested in practicing together and supporting each other.
It seems that Niu Deng also heard about what happened at Mo's house and is extending an olive branch to me.
Mo Bei smiled and jumped down from the tree: "Thanks."
"Polite," Niu Deng also being a straightforward person, clasped his fists and smiled: "In the future within the sect, I'll still have to rely on Big Brother Mo Bei to take care of me."
The two of them chatted as they walked to the bonfire and sat down, while the little monkey also sat down in a dignified manner, holding a pig's leg and gnawing at it with its mouth full of oil, looking very comical and adorable.
Mo Bei glanced at Xiao Pihou and asked with feigned curiosity: "This little monkey seems to have a good relationship with you."
The cow demon smiled: "This is natural, my three-eyed demon monkey has a violent temper and dislikes strangers. However, it loves to eat black gold beans; I often feed it black gold beans, how can it not like me? You say so, little skin monkey?"
In the end, Niu Deng's gaze fell on Xiaomao, obviously speaking to him.
Mo Bei couldn't help but smile inwardly.
This beast can understand simple words, but how could it comprehend such complex human language.
But then Mo Bei was stunned.
All he saw was that the little monkey actually raised its head, smiled at Mo Bei with a grin, and the expression on its face was almost identical to Niu Deng's, extremely similar.
"Can this little monkey really understand what you're saying?" Mo Bei was shocked.
"There's nothing strange about that." Niu Deng nodded, saying matter-of-factly: "Spiritual beasts are originally extremely intelligent, as long as you raise them properly, they can naturally understand. The method is actually very simple, cater to their preferences..."
Niu Deng hesitated for a moment before deciding to continue speaking:
"Different spirit pets have different feeding methods. For example, these three-eyed demon monkeys of mine love to eat black gold beans and sweet spring dew."
Moreover, due to the cold air in its body, it will be icy cool all over at noon; so it likes to let others scratch its belly at noon to activate blood and dissolve stasis. If these three points are done, there won't be any major problems."
Mo Bei nodded thoughtfully, as if he had gained some insight. He smiled gratefully at Niu Deng: "I didn't expect that raising a spiritual pet would have so many subtleties. Thank you for the lesson!"
Since discovering that knowledge can give birth to potential points, Luo Li has been intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about the spiritual beasts brought by these young people.
But those young men all avoided talking about it, pushing and shoving each other, not one of them telling the truth. It was only this Niu Deng Shihui who spoke out these secrets.
Luó Lí knew the method of raising the three-eyed demon monkey, and he couldn't help but nod his head. It seemed that raising spiritual beasts had countless secrets, and each of them brought such a beast with them, which should be an extremely important item for joining the Tàixū Zōng!
It's no good if you don't know these things, but how can you find out?
Mo Bei started to slowly calculate.
"Let go, don't bully my Xiao Bai!"
A delicate and soft voice, like the sound of nature, came from afar. The voice trembled, with a crying tone, revealing a hint of fear and panic.
Niu Dengmo and Beier turned their heads to look.
Among the crowd that burst into laughter from time to time, a 15 or 16-year-old girl in blue clothes was surrounded, holding a white small rabbit tightly in her arms, her slender body trembling with fear, and her face full of helplessness and terror.
"Heh heh," Long Hao Tian walked out of the crowd with Lan Jing Yu, his right hand pinching his chin, a hint of a mischievous smile on his face:
"Little girl, this rabbit looks quite fat, why don't we roast it and eat it?"
