Crack, crack.

Everyone thought to themselves: Here is here! But what is here?

Shisheng hid under the table and observed outside through the gap of the tablecloth. He saw that the sound was at the corner of the warehouse. As the sound became louder, it seemed that the dirt in the corner of the wall began to fall.

With a bang, a piece of wall soil was pushed out, and then several wild cats came in.

Mao Shisheng was stunned for a moment, and saw the wild cats looking around after entering the house. The four of them felt that this was strange and held their breath without saying anything.

What happened next was even more strange. When the wild cats saw that there seemed to be no one in the house, they spontaneously arranged on both sides of the wall hole. One of them made a "meow" sound, and then a large group of mice crawled into the outside of the wall hole!

The mice lined up like well-trained, and fell into the house with the command of the big cats, and then scattered, some crawled into the rice bag, and some crawled into the counter.

Shisheng discovered that the big cats had a few small bags tied to them, and they were lying on the ground, and all the food and money brought by the mice were put into the bags.

Shisheng felt very novel when he saw these cats and mice like humans, but Liu Bolun had already seen the clues in his heart. Because he had been wandering around for many years and had a wide range of experiences, he understood that this should be a kind of cat and mouse transporting scenes, and someone must be controlling these mice and cats.

It is said that this trick of manipulating animals to do things has existed since ancient times, but as time goes by, very few of them can be passed down. And what they met this time was obviously an expert, who could use cats and mice to transport finances, two types of animals that could not be put together. Look at the cats' expressions, they looked like supervisors to supervise the mice to work.

Although this scene seemed interesting, everyone also understood that they could not continue to carry it. They had to find out the person behind the scenes who operated these cats and mice as thieves.

Thinking of this, Chen Tunan nodded, and the three of them understood and rushed out.

When the cats and mice saw four people suddenly appear in the house, they were frightened and messed up. However, the cats were obviously well-trained. After seeing them, the three cats immediately burst into the hair and rushed over, covering the remaining two, quickly drilling out of the wall hole.

The four disciples of Doumi Temple actually had no choice but to kill these cats, so they had to pick up the cats with their teeth and claws one by one. Seeing that the two cats were running away, Chen Tuan nodded to Shisheng.

Among the four, Shisheng is the most suitable for tracking, because he is the best light skills. Now, seeing that the money lost in this house is just someone who controls cats and mice, so it should not be a big deal, so they feel at ease.

Shisheng's child felt interesting, so he responded and jumped out of the window and ran behind the house in two steps. At this time, the cats and mice had disappeared under the cover of night, but Shisheng had a way. He lie on the hole in the wall and smelled it hard, then stood up and smelled it everywhere, and immediately knew where the cat was running.

His nose was extremely sensitive, so after he determined the direction, he used the method of wind to chase him, crossed the high walls, and ran through the alleys. The little quiet in the middle of the night was so quiet that the cat took him to turn left and right in the streets and alleys. It took a long time to chase him to a very hidden alley.

Shisheng saw that the alley in the distance was a little bright, so he hid behind the wall on tiptoe, and looked up at the same time.

At the end of the alley, dozens of cats and hundreds of mice gathered, all of which formed a circle. In this circle was a slender man. The man was wearing a black robe and his cloak covered his face so he couldn't see his face. There was a worn-out oil lamp beside him. At this time, flames flashed in the lamp. Under the faint lights, the cats and mice came to him one by one, and he took off his cloth bag.

The man also began to check the money transported by the cat and mouse. He saw that he put the small cloth bags together, then picked up a pair of chopsticks and pointed at the cat and mouse and said, "Okay, now the ones who have eaten secretly stand here, and those who have not eaten secretly stand there."

The voice was very soft and light, it was actually the voice of a girl.

As soon as the girl finished speaking, the cats and mice were very obediently arranged in two groups. The girl stretched out a white lotus-like arm from her black robe. She lit the mice and cats she had stolen, and then said angrily: "Why are you so disobedient? Everyone is hungry, how can you... Forget it, I will punish you for not having enough food for a while."

The cats and mice were squeaking, and the girl took out some dry wheat cakes from the cloth bag and broke them for them to the cats and mice before she held a small piece of cake and started to chew on them.

Shisheng saw this novelty in the dark, thinking that there were really all kinds of wonders in the world, and this person could actually hold a meeting for cats and mice. It was the first time he saw this.

"Meow!"

And at this moment, two sharp cats suddenly came from behind him. Shisheng looked back and saw that two cats had discovered him.

"Who?" The girl stood up and shouted loudly when she heard the cat's meow, "Come out!"

Since he was discovered, there was nothing he could do, so Shisheng had to come out with a little embarrassed attitude. The girl looked at the strange young man in front of her and said vigilantly: "Who are you? Where are you from? What are you doing here?"

The girl raised her head and a pretty little face reflected under the light. Although the little face was dirty, it could not hide the whiteness of the skin under the dust. Her big eyes seemed to be able to speak, but at this moment her eyes were full of anger.

Shisheng was embarrassed when the girl asked her back, so he said, "My name is Shisheng, come out of the Xiao family."

"Xiao family?" The girl suddenly frowned, then stepped back several times, and shouted, "Then are you invited by the Xiao family to catch me?"

Before he could say anything, the girl suddenly pinched her lips and whistled, and the cats and mice on the ground had already exposed their fangs to him, and then ran towards him overwhelmed.

Seeing so many cats and mice pounced towards him, the number of these mice made him feel a little numb. Just as the cats and mice were about to pounce, a black shadow suddenly jumped off the roof.

It was a black cat. The black cat went to Shisheng and shouted at the cats and mice.

The cats and mice all stopped and stopped, while the girl in black said in surprise: "'Hero'?! What are you protecting him? He is the evil man who came to capture us!"

But the black cat didn't shake her head, then turned around and rubbed Shisheng's trouser legs very intimately. Shisheng had already recognized the cat at this time. This black cat was the one that snatched his bun a year ago.

"Ahha." Shisheng picked up the cat and smiled and said, "I really didn't expect to meet you, a little thief cat. I ate my bun a year ago and made me hungry. How good is your child?"

After saying that, he teased the cat's chin with his fingers, and the cat closed his eyes very much.

The girl was shocked when she saw that the black cat was so close to the world. You should know that this black cat was the cat boss in the entire town, named "The Great Hero". She would not usually get close to anyone except her.

The girl thought about it and suddenly thought about something, but she said to Shisheng: "You said you gave it a bun a year ago? Was it the time it gave birth to a baby?"

"Yes." Shisheng nodded, and then said that night. After hearing this, the girl sighed and said, "It turns out that you saved it that day. If it weren't for you, it and its children would not survive. Since you can be liked by it, it means you are not a bad person."

It turned out that life in the town was very hard at that time last year, and Shisheng knew about this. The black cat couldn't find food, but it gave birth to a litter of kittens, so it was very weak. The girl was not there at that time, so if it weren't for Shisheng, the cat would have starved to death.

After saying that, she waved her hand, and the cats and mice on the ground dispersed, and Shisheng walked up with the black cat in his arms and said to the girl: "What's going on? What's your name? Where did you come from?"

"My name is Xiaobai." The girl lifted off her cloak and said, "I'm from my hometown."

Shisheng looked at the girl. She was about the same age as him, but she really felt weathered. Her pretty face was covered with dust, and her eyes were filled with anxiety and helplessness.

This feeling is very familiar to Shisheng. This is the look of hunger and loneliness. Once upon a time, Shisheng was the same.

"Xiaobai... It seems like the name of a kitten." Shisheng said, "Then why do you want to steal something?"

"I am an orphan, I don't have a name but only a surname." Xiaobai sighed to Shisheng, "Since you are not a bad person, it's okay to tell you. If you ask me why I steal things, maybe I just want to survive, or... want to save some people."

After saying that, Xiaobai told Shisheng why he wanted to steal things.

As she said, she was an orphan, living in a small mountain village far south of Xiaojia Town. Due to the chaos, his father was caught by a group of horse thieves when he went out to make a living, while her mother died of dying labor when she gave birth to her.

She was raised by her neighbor Tian A-Ya, the village, and she had no name, so everyone called her Xiaobai.

Their village passed down a craft of animal taming. In the past, there were no troubled times, many villagers would wander around cities to perform their skills, but twenty years ago, the arrival of troubled times made them lose their jobs. Think about it, it is difficult for people in this world to fill their stomachs, where can they have free money to watch their tricks and juggle?

Moreover, the world outside is chaotic, so it is better to stay in the village and rely on a few acres of thin fields to survive.

In recent years, the harvest has not been good for many years, and the villagers have almost gone to life. At this moment, a master from the village came to the village. This monk has a powerful magic and can summon wind and rain. The villagers treat him as a living god and build a temple for him.

After hearing this, Shisheng thought to himself: Isn’t this a good thing? At least no one is hungry to Buddha.

When Xiaobai talked about this, his eyes turned red. She said, "But the good times didn't last long... Later, everyone in the village believed in Buddhism, but gradually everyone became weird."

It turned out that after the monk came to the village, he relied on his own skills to make the villagers believe in the Buddha. He told the villagers: If you worship Buddha devoutly, you can escape from the sea of ​​suffering. When you become a Buddha, you will not have many troubles?

The villagers believed it, so they went to the temple to worship the Buddha all day long, believing in the monk's words. After a while, the monk actually claimed that he had the ability to save a group of believers with destiny and went to the Pure Land. At that time, the villagers had already firmly believed that the monk was the Buddha, so they rushed to sign up.

Faith is indeed terrible, while blind faith is simply terrible.

The monk selected twenty people to go to the Pure Land for the first time. After hearing the monk's words, the twenty people went to the temple in the middle of the night. Sure enough, the next day, the villagers saw portraits of these people on the walls of the temple. They were like gods on the murals, with vivid shapes. From then on, they didn't even do farm work and bowed to the monk all day long to take him to take them to the Pure Land.

Later, the monk took several groups of people to "Peaceful Bliss". The selected people were undoubtedly happy. Xiaobai was also very moved at the time, but he was never selected. Until one time she couldn't help it, she took advantage of the darkness to run outside the temple to peek at how these people went to "Peaceful Bliss".

But what is the Pure Land that catches her eyes? It is not an exaggeration to say it is endless hell!

At that time, she only saw those people walking into the temple, and the monk took the scriptures and chanted them. Then the monk took the incense ash from the altar and mixed them into the water in the bowl, and squirted them with water.

After that, the people showed an expression of great happiness, and then stood up one by one, and the monk commanded him to pick up the knife and cut his neck one by one. The sharp knife quickly, and the flesh was turned out on the neck, and blood spurted all over the ground. The kind-looking old monk put them in a smile, sat on the ground and cut their flesh, cut one piece and ate one piece, and finally sucked the bones cleanly.

He ate very quickly. After finishing his meal, he took out a large mop from under the table, mopped the blood on the ground and started drawing on the wall!

It was not until this time that Xiaobai realized that those people were not going to the Pure Land at all, but were all eaten by the old monk! She was so scared that she hurried back to the village and told the villagers what she saw, but.

But none of the villagers believed her.

Maybe it was because of faith, or because of fear of being hungry and poverty again, the villagers didn't believe the little girl at all. Later, when they saw her saying bad things about the master, they beat her up.

The monk later learned about this and invited her to the temple. She just said that she was going to die, so she knelt on the ground and begged the monk to let the villagers go.

Because she has no relatives, in her eyes, these villagers are her relatives. Even if they don’t believe her, she doesn’t want to see them being killed and eaten by this old monk.

The old monk was revealed at this time, and he showed his fangs and said to Xiaobai: You girl is very brave, don’t you want me to eat them? That’s easy, you can use money to redeem them.

It turned out that this monk was extremely greedy for money, and at this time, the valuable things in the village were taken into his pocket as tributes, but he felt that it was still not enough, so he told Xiaobai, if you don’t want me to eat Mr. Tian who raised you, go and steal things for me. Otherwise………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Xiaobai was already crying when he said this. She wiped her tears and said, "It's because of this that I left the village to steal things. I...I don't want to watch my relatives eat by the monk...I also know that stealing is not good, but, but......"

"Nothing is possible." Shisheng suddenly said, "You did it right."

Shisheng found that he could fully understand Xiaobai's experience, and even closed his eyes, he could imagine the helplessness when Xiaobai cried and begged the villagers not to believe in the demon monks.

Because Shisheng is also an orphan, after hearing what Xiaobai had experienced, he had already decided something in his heart.

"But you..." Xiaobai looked at Shisheng, and she was very grateful that Shisheng did not scold her. Shisheng waved his hand at her, and then said, "I'm here to see where your hometown is?"

After saying this, Shisheng stood up and said firmly: "I'm sure this is not a monk. Monk won't do this. Let's go, I'll help you get rid of this harmful spirit."
