Chapter 156: Get some thanks
The big tiger bit the sweeping monk's head in one bite.
Shen Ningning had just seen blood spurting out, accompanied by the screams of the sweeping monk. Before she could take a closer look, Xie Mingxu covered her eyes.
The screams were endless, but Xie Mingxu said solemnly: "Don't be afraid."
At this moment, Shen Ningning felt an unprecedented peace of mind.
It was as if her family were protecting her in their arms.
She neither struggled nor moved, and leaned obediently in her elder brother's arms.
After a moment, the screams stopped.
Xie Mingxu said in a deep voice: "Two more tigers are here. Don't open your eyes. I will take you out of here first."
The beasts in the mountain forest are very dangerous if they are hungry for a long time.
Shen Ningning hurriedly grabbed him with her little hands: "Brother, let's not leave in a hurry. I think this big tiger seems to know me. Let me ask them."
Xie Mingxu frowned: "Stop messing around. How do you communicate with a tiger?"
However, Shen Ningning had already broken away from his arms.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw several strong men dead and wounded, and two strong-boned tigers who had rolled in from outside the low wall at some point. They were feasting on the corpses.
The sound of crunching and biting bones made even Xie Mingxu’s scalp numb when he heard it.
But out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Shen Ningning's expression was as usual.
Of course the little guy is not afraid.
Normally at home, the sound of hundreds of wolves crunching bones is even louder than this.
She took two steps forward, and the huge tiger from before raised its head, holding a severed limb in its mouth.
The three tigers stopped moving their mouths at the same time and looked at her.
Xie Mingxu pressed his hand tightly on the hilt of the sword and followed Shen Ningning's steps, his eyes alert.
The little guy walked up to the big tiger and said, "You recognize me, right?"
With a "pop" sound, the severed arm fell out of the big tiger's mouth.
It sat upright, its eyes were inexplicably majestic, and when it opened its mouth, it roared twice.
After hearing this, Shen Ningning's eyes lit up: "Really? That's such a coincidence!"
Xie Mingxu was doubtful: "What did they say?"
Shen Ningning smiled and explained to him: "The tiger said that they heard the small animals around them talking about me, and I live in Langshan next door!"
Actually, the little guy didn’t finish his sentence.
What the big tiger said was that they ate the meat left by Shen Ningning and the clear spring she brought out.
After listening to the monkeys nearby, I found out that it was a little girl named Shen Ningning who brought the entire mountain range back to life.
That group of little monkeys even used Shen Ningning’s shoes to smell for the animals in the forest.
From tigers to elk, snakes and bears, and even various birds, they all remember her breath.
Shen Ningning doesn’t know yet, but in the hearts of these big and small animals, she is comparable to a god.
The animals have a consensus that wherever the little guy passes or stays, there must be water or food.
So just when Shen Ningning went up the mountain, the tigers came following the breath.
At first sight, there was actually a group of people who could be eaten. The big tiger said that the group of monkeys did not deceive them.
Xie Mingxu had a look of surprise on his face: "The animals... also recognize you? Who are you?"
Shen Ningning tilted her little head: "Brother, do you know Langshan? My family lives there. People outside call me little wolf girl. I live with the wolves!"
There is such a strange thing!
Xie Mingxu was extremely surprised.
He said implicitly: "I have been away from the capital for more than three years. I just came back one day and I didn't know there was a legend like you."
While they were talking, the three big tigers began to eat people again.
Xie Mingxu glanced at it, coughed and asked, "Can you tell them not to eat the ones that are still alive? I need to send them back to the capital government office." "Okay!" Shen Ningning turned to look at the tiger: "The alive ones Don’t eat it, just let it die”
Xie Mingxu was surprised again and admired the little guy's courage.
She is indeed a little girl who lives with wolves, her face does not change when she sees such ferocious beasts.
Those tigers really understood, and they dragged the dead bandit to the other side to enjoy it.
Xie Mingxu took advantage of this time to interrogate those who were still alive.
The bandits were seriously injured. They were either bitten by tigers and were bleeding profusely, or they were stabbed by Xie Mingxu with a sword before.
Seeing Xie Mingxu approaching, they were so frightened that they collapsed and wet their pants.
“Uncle, please do well. We are just trying to make a living in the mountains. Apart from occupying temples, killing a few people, and eating a few monks, we haven’t done anything bad!”
Shen Ningning snorted: "You actually cannibalize people, and you say you haven't done anything bad!"
Hearing the ferocious sound of her breasts, a smaller tiger ran over, brushed against Shen Ningning's little hand like a big cat, and purred.
It is asking, this person has made her angry, should she eat him?
Shen Ningning touched the tiger twice randomly with her little hand: "You can't eat it alive, be good and go play with it."
The little tiger regretfully walked to the side and lay down, hugging the human skull and started licking it.
The few living bandits saw this scene and were so frightened that they cried for their fathers and mothers.
Had they known that this little girl could command wild beasts, they wouldn't have done anything to her!
Xie Mingxu kicked him: "Stop yelling and tell me honestly, where have all the previous monks gone?"
"Some of them were eaten...most of them were sold. We were very hungry, so we only ate two of us." The bandit confessed tremblingly.
Under Xie Mingxu’s questioning, the truth emerged.
It turned out that they were a group of mountain bandits, originally entrenched in the northwest of Langshan Mountain, but not long ago, their accomplices went to Xiangyun Village to rob things and were caught by the ambushed officers and soldiers!
Hence, the remaining group of bandits did not dare to stay for a long time, so they changed their territory.
During the drought year, Fashan Temple is located in a remote location, so few people come here to pray to gods and worship Buddha.
So they saw that there were not many monks, so they simply occupied the temple and became kings, acting as fake monks here.
If there are pilgrims coming and there are many people there, they will honestly not do anything.
If single pilgrims are found, at least they will rob their money and threaten them, or at worst, they will detain them and sell them into slavery.
Because these people were cautious, most of the people who were robbed were powerless and did not make any noise after returning to Beijing, which allowed these bandits to become arrogant until now.
When Shen Ningning learned the truth, her eyes widened in surprise: "You are actually in the same group as those gangsters!"
Xie Mingxu asked: "By the way, you just said that you live in Xiangyun Village, so you also know about the bandits?"
"I know!" Shen Ningning nodded heavily: "They and Du Yuan worked together to rob the disaster relief food sent by the court. The bandits who were caught have been killed."
As soon as she finished speaking, a bandit said: "Master Du? Isn't that right? Isn't that man's name Mr. Wei..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was bumped on the shoulder by a tall man with a mustache next to him.
Xie Mingxu frowned. When he heard about the Wei family, he felt that these bandits might not be that simple.
He thought for a while and said to Shen Ningning: "I have to transfer these people to the Dali Temple in the capital. Your beads are relics. Only the monks of the national temple can bless and protect the Dharma. If your family does not come, I can You take it to the national temple first."
Shen Ningning waved her little hand: "Brother, let's go, my friend is waiting for me at the foot of the mountain!"
Xie Mingxu pursed his lips and nodded: "Okay."
He didn't mess around. The few bandits who were eaten by tigers were not taken into account for the time being. The few who were still alive were **** with straw ropes by him.
He found a wooden plank in the temple and fixed the person on it. Then he said goodbye to Shen Ningning and dragged the bandits down the mountain.
The little guy chased him to the door, his eyes sparkling: "Wow, big brother's arm strength is really amazing...ah! I forgot to ask his name, well, forget it, we will meet again if we have the chance."
She turned back and looked at the three big tigers: "You helped me, I'm going to get you some thank you gifts! Wait"
The little guy said this and entered the fairyland in a flash.
The tigers watched her disappear into thin air, their round tiger eyes widened.
