Chapter 6
"That is to say, this is the territory of the imperial court, and the people who come here to offer incense and worship to you are the subjects of the imperial court." Song You paused, "You occupy this temple to absorb incense from these people, You need to get the permission of the imperial court or Tiangong."

"who are they?"

"..."

Song You thought about the language again, and then said: "In theory, the imperial court controls all the people in the world, and the Heavenly Palace controls all the gods in the world."

"What are you doing to me?"

"It's not us, it's them. I'm just entrusted by them to come and check."

"What did they want me for?"

"Please trouble me."

"..."

Mistress Sanhua was also silent when she heard the words, and then continued to walk forward, walked to the side of the altar with small steps, jumped up lightly, and when she squatted on the altar, she was not much lower than Song You who was standing , and it just says:

"Those people burned incense for me themselves."

"Is this temple yours?"

"No one wants it."

"I'm afraid not."

"why?"

"Because incense is limited in this world, if someone gives it to you, it cannot be given to other gods, or it will be given less to other gods." Song You said, "And the imperial court and Tiangong will not be with you, a lowly little demon. Reasonable."

"Then I just don't eat."

"I'm afraid not."

"And why?"

"Tiangong has rules. Before, there were monsters here who absorbed incense privately and were killed. The temple you occupied originally belonged to it."

"..."

Mistress Sanhua just stared at him with round eyes.

It is difficult for humans to see emotions from a cat's face, but Song You thought, it must be frightened.

After a long time, it asked again:

"why?"

"Maybe it did something bad."

"I don't have one." Mistress Sanhua stared at him, "I just helped the people down the mountain to catch mice. And I used to have a temple, which was a small temple. Later, someone brought my statue to this big temple, not me. coming."

"No matter how small the temple is, it's just that it was not discovered before, but now that it has been discovered, even if I don't care about you today, someone will still come to you."

"What should I do?"

"If you have never murdered people, never sucked people's energy, and eaten people's flesh and blood, you will not die."

"Then what will happen to me?"

"If you don't run or resist, I can take you to see them, and they will follow the rules and regulations." Song You said to the cat in front of him, "It might be better for you."

Empress Sanhua rolled her eyes:
"it is good……"

Seeing the Taoist priest looking away, it ran away immediately.

"brush!"

The cat's movements are so agile, not to mention that a cat demon with only a cultivation base jumped off the altar almost instantly, and walked out of the temple gate in the next instant.

Running all the way up the path, like a flash of lightning, only mottled shadows could be seen.After running for a certain distance, the three-flowered cat stopped, turned its head, and stretched its neck so that it could look over the top of the weeds and look in the direction of Miaozi.

"Well?"

Didn't catch up?
Mistress Sanhua froze for a moment, feeling a little puzzled.

After waiting for a while, no one came out. It changed its position so that it could look in through the gate, and saw that person still standing in the temple, not knowing what to do.

It’s weird.

The three-flowered cat simply sat down on the spot, sat upright, stretched its neck and raised its head, staring at him without blinking.

Time passed slowly.

Sanhuamao finally couldn't help it, and walked a little closer to Miaozi, and cautiously peeked inside.

But the Taoist priest looked at it indifferently: "It is your greatest luck to meet me. If someone comes next time, he may be much more fierce than me."

"Why don't you come after me?"

"How can I catch up with you?"

"Then what will you do if I run away?"

"..."

Song You looked at it, feeling helpless, but patiently explained: "I was entrusted by Wang Shangong to come over to see the situation, not to catch you or punish you. Besides, the temple This statue is deeply involved with you, and it can find you no matter how far away it is."

"right!"

Sanhuamao's eyes widened immediately, shocked as if enlightened, happy to unravel doubts, and troubled and anxious because of it, so many emotions appeared on that small cat's face all at once.

What to do? What to do?
The three-flowered cat is almost in a circle.

"Taoist priests take it as their duty to eliminate evil temples and sacrifices. You should be thankful. I am a fake Taoist priest."

"What should I do?"

"I took you to see Wang Shangong, he was a kind person. I explained your situation to him and tried to make them punish you lightly. Of course, I will go down the mountain to inquire before that, so as to prove that what you said is true. Really, and then..."

"And then!"

"You'll get your results."

"What result?"

"Should be punished."

"Punishment?"

"Mostly locked up, locked up somewhere."

"somewhere?"

"Like a tower."

"!"

"I don't want to scare you, but the result is probably like this." Song You looked at the little cat monster, his heart softened, "It's like this most of the time."

"!!"

"Monsters have a long lifespan."

"!!!"

Sanhuamao still stared at him with wide-open eyes, and his mind was running fast.

Instinct makes it want to run away, the farther the better, but it is very smart, smart and told it that staying seems to be the best choice.

It regrets so much now. When the villagers brought its statue from the small temple to the big temple, it should have moved it back secretly at night. If it stayed in the small temple, it might not be discovered. up.

After fighting for a long time, Sanhuamao still entered the temple.

"Then where are you taking me?"

"Not far."

"Are you going now?"

"Tomorrow." Song You looked up at the sky, "I will stay with you overnight tonight, and go there early tomorrow morning."

"Isn't it not far?"

"It's not close either."

"it is good……"

Sanhuamao simply sat down on the spot and looked at Song You without blinking.

"Just be casual."

"it is good……"

"Isn't this your temple?"

"right!"

Sanhuamao suddenly woke up, but couldn't relax.

It will soon be dusk outside, and the three sticks of incense that were burned when I came here have long been burned out, leaving only the faint smell of herbs.

The three-flowered cat jumped onto the altar again, and ate the local small river fish. Thinking that it would be a pity that it would not be able to eat all the meat today, it turned around and wanted to share some with the Taoist priests below, so that it would be more for itself Say a few good words, but it's a pity that this Taoist priest doesn't eat, but only eats what he brings.

The sky gradually darkened and the temperature plummeted.

The moon rose very early tonight, and it was rounder than last night. The moonlight shone colder and colder, but there was no door to this temple, and the cold wind poured in wantonly.

After watching the moonlight for a while, I gradually felt bored. When I looked back, the three-colored cat had already lay down, shrunk into a ball, with only its head and body, but no feet and tails. It turned its head and stared at him without blinking, thinking What.

"What are you thinking?"

"Taoist, if I'm locked up, will anyone offer incense to me?"

"Of course not."

"Then can we go out and play?"

"Of course not."

"Is there any meat to eat?"

"Probably not."

"..."

The Sanhuamao looks depressed, but it still doesn't know what it did wrong.

But it's also just a cat.

Not to mention the imperial court and Tiangong, not to mention these Taoist priests, even the many people from the rivers and lakes who pass by and spend the night here are also unaffected by it.

The night became more and more quiet, except for the sound of the wind.

After a long time, I heard the Taoist say again: "I also have a question for you."

"what?"

"I also have a question for you."

"You ask, be more natural in my temple."

"How long has Empress Sanhua opened her spiritual wisdom?"

"It's been a few years."

"It's only been a few years."

"It's very long."

"How did you become a demon?"

"That's how he became a demon."

"Any adventures?" The Taoist nodded and looked at it. "For example, met someone, or ate something unique, or stayed in a particularly comfortable place for a while."

"No."

"Really not?"

"..."

Sanhuamao refused to make a sound, but turned its head and looked at the Taoist priest without blinking, and said for a long time:

"I am very smart."

"possible."

Song You looked back and said no more.

The time is getting later and later, and the mountains are getting colder and colder.

Song You leaned against the corner and closed his eyes.

Sanhuamao lay on its stomach and yawned, sometimes staring at Song You, and sometimes having a messy escape plan in its mind, but it was just boring.

But now it can neither go out to play, nor can it jump up and down as usual in the temple, it is really embarrassing.

Until five o'clock in the morning, it is the coldest.

The cold wind enters the door.

Song You opened his eyes a little, and hugged his arms around his chest tighter, as if this could lock in the heat, and looked to the side, the three-colored cat lying on a straw futon under the moonlight It was also tightly shrunk, and it looked like a small hairball.

Song You seemed to be touched, so he couldn't help thinking for a moment.

In the early morning of the next day, a rooster announced the dawn at the foot of the mountain.

Sanhuamao woke up earlier than Song You, and sat on the futon, looking straight at him, wondering what he was thinking.

Perhaps thinking about their own future destiny.

Song You ate a cold steamed cake bought on the road yesterday, and took it to the foot of the mountain to inquire about it. He learned that there was indeed a cat fairy in the temple on the mountain. After the fish incense candle is used, it will be clean at night, so that its reputation has spread to farther places, and people from all over the world come here to get rid of the rat plague.

After asking the last family, Song You stood still at the door again, looking up into the distance, lost in thought.

"Why don't you go?"

The three-flowered cat followed beside him.

"Let's go."

"What are you doing?"

"It's nothing."

"You are still moving."

"I'm thinking..." Song You glanced at it again, "Your followers are fairly widespread."

"Yes!"

"People come to make offerings every day, so you go to his house to catch rats at night?"

"correct!"

"What if it's far away?"

"Go faster."

"Then you've worked really hard."

"It's not hard."

"Let's go."

"Have you gone to find Mr. Wang Shan?"

"Yes."

One person and one cat walked out of the village, Song You strode ahead, and the three-flowered cat hung at the back, neither talking nor talking, just walking silently, but if this picture is viewed by others, it may be novel.
