chewing dragon

Chapter 224
As soon as the old Mandrill yelled, Ban Nu had already jumped out of the hall, and approached the young man with a vigilant face.

Behind it, the monkeys who had been frightened by the different snakes all ran out after a whimper, all of them proud and smiling, trampling on the ground with copper coins jingling and clanging.

Qi Jingzhi turned over and jumped onto Ban Nu's back, pointing in the direction of the front yard.

The black and white tiger-striped beast immediately jumped up and flew down from the stone platform.

It spread its four claws, like a black and white whirlwind, swept across the empty courtyard, not only ignored the majestic tiger smoke, but also crushed the group of strange snakes that were reuniting Most of the time, it was only then that he leaped proudly and easily jumped over the courtyard wall.

In the front yard stood a one-legged monster as tall as two people. It had yellow eyes, red nose, protruding fangs, bulging muscles, and was covered with long white hair.

It gently stretched its ape arms, picked up a big ten-thousand-dollar snake, tightly grasped the snake's head with its claws, as if holding a long whip, swung it around twice slowly and quickly, and then slammed towards another huge snake. snake body.

All of a sudden, there was only a clanging and crisp sound, like copper and iron clashing.

The big snake that was hit suddenly swelled a circle, and immediately exploded, turning into tens of thousands of copper coins and flying around.

Naturally, the ten-thousand-dollar snake that had made a long whip was not spared. First, its whole body rattled, and then from its bald tail to its sharp beak, it burst apart inch by inch, and also threw down nearly ten thousand dollars in change.

Only a small number of snake bodies did not show the shape of copper coins, struggling and wriggling, trying to get together again.

"senior!"

Qi Jingzhi greeted with joy, and his eyes fell on Lao Mandrill's forehead, because there was a jade-white mountain pattern emerging there, shining brilliantly and eye-catching.

Illuminated by the jade-white brilliance of this mountain pattern, the broken snake bodies under Lao Man's feet stood still and lost their aura, as if they had turned into dead objects in an instant.

Then I saw the old Mandrill opened his mouth and sucked it vigorously, and a faint blue glow separated from the snake bodies and even the copper coins all over the floor, and threw them into its huge mouth one after another.

Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help being slightly startled.

In his perception, these cyan fluorescent lights seem to be the aura of the mountains hidden in the mountain money, with a hint of the mysterious rhythm of the wind in the pines and valleys.

He clearly remembered that when he first met Senior Mandrill, the mountain pattern on the forehead of this servant of the mountain god was blue, but now it has turned into a jade-white color, and he feeds on the blue aura of buying mountain money. Could it be that he really changed it? Court?

At this moment, except for the two ten-thousand-dollar snakes that were intercepted, all the other snakes that had fled to the front yard had escaped without a trace.

Old Mandrill smashed his mouth, he still had a lot to say.

It stared at Bannu for a while, then looked at Qi Jingzhi, then looked past the boy, and looked behind him firmly.

Qi Jingzhi looked back in surprise, and saw that the courtyard wall behind him had been shrouded in smoke from the tiger, and two blue boys stood on the top of the wall, and a dozen flesh-winged flying tigers hung on their green clothes like ornaments. superior.

"Senior, don't misunderstand, these two tiger-wearing ghosts are dead, and now they are just two corpses without spirituality."

As Qi Jingzhi said, he tapped the jade chime again with the chime hammer.

"clang!"

As the crisp sound of the chime spread, no matter whether it was the fiercer boy, the flying tiger, or the much stronger tiger-shame mist, they immediately moved upon hearing the order, and quickly poured into the tiger-shade jasper chime.

The old man stared at the jade chime in the young man's hand for a while, and then he grinned at him, all his ferocious aura subsided, revealing his original serene demeanor.

Qi Jingzhi's heart suddenly relaxed, and he took the tiger evil jade chime back into the palm of his hand.

Although he didn't know what happened to Xiaosongshan during the half a year since he left his hometown, Senior Mandrill's temperament was obviously the same as before, and there was no major change.

I saw the old Mandrill leaping up to Qi Jingzhi, he was not in a hurry to get close to him, but stretched out an ape claw, and stroked the white mane on Bannu's neck vigorously, it seemed that he couldn't put it down .

It was the first time for Ban Nu to see Old Mandrill, and he was quite vigilant when he heard his roar before, but now he was stroked by the ape's claws, not only did not dodge or dodge, but it was quite beneficial, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he opened his eyes comfortably. There was a snort.

"The senior Goupi Taoist of the Tianyi Sect once said that there are mandrills who take tigers as their sons and call their tiger sons 'Banzi'. Seeing them now, this statement should be true. It's a pity that the old mandrills can't speak ..."

Qi Jingzhi just came up with this idea, and suddenly he heard Lao Man exhale: "This is... what... a horse?"

The voice of this servant of the mountain god was quite thick and resonant, which made Qi Jingzhi's ears buzzing.

Seeing the surprised look on the young man's face, the old man grinned, showing a bit of pride, but he stumbled a little when he spoke: "I have...been blessed by my ancestors, and I...been able to speak three...months ago."

"Senior is the descendant of Baiyun Cave Lord Yuan Gong?" Although Qi Jingzhi asked, his tone was quite certain.

His vision is wide open now, and his knowledge is not comparable to that of the mountain boy a few months ago. There are sacred objects such as the crane stele in Xianyu Mountain in his own home. It is very common to have some benefits.

What's more, this senior mandrill, as a servant of the previous generation of mountain gods, has guarded Xiaosongshan Netherland God's Mansion alone for decades, and his loyalty is evident. If his ancestors hadn't manifested their holiness, they would never have easily changed their family.

Sure enough, Lao Man nodded and pointed at the white hair on his body: "I am old enough... I have merits and virtues... I dreamed of my ancestors."

Qi Jingzhi immediately understood, knowing that the so-called age is enough, it should be the blood of Senior Mandrill, who was sensed by the power of Lord Baiyundong and even Yuan Gong himself. As for having merit, it is obviously another way threshold.

Speaking of it, Senior Mandrill and Xunjiang's golden-eyed squirrel are both servants of gods, but they behave differently. Not only have they never disturbed the mountain people around Xiaosong Mountain, but they have also devoted themselves to their duties and protected one side. The spirit and the ghost do not hesitate to fight to the death.

Thinking of this, Qi Jingzhi felt more joy in his heart, and immediately followed his master's example, and slapped the old Mandrill: "Junior Qi Jingzhi, a disciple of Xianyu Mountain Xuandu, is also a Taoist. Over seniors!"

Seeing this, Lao Man also clasped his fists together, and gave a strange salute.

After the salute, it scratched its head again, hesitated and said: "The ancestor said that I am still young. If I meet someone from the Taoist sect, the bearded one should respectfully call me senior, and the beardless one..."

It seems that because he doesn't speak often, Old Mandrill was a little rusty at first, but he became obviously smoother when he spoke.

He paused, stared at Qi Jingzhi with strange eyes, and squinted at Qi Jingzhi's slightly stubbled chin: "If you don't have a beard, you're called Brother Dao!"

Qi Jingzhi was taken aback, and quickly waved his hands and said: "Senior, you are joking, you are probably older than my grandfather, not to mention that since we met, I have been worthy of seniors!"

Lao Man shook his head resolutely, and solemnly said word by word: "The ancestor is the greatest! I am not a senior, you are a Taoist brother!"

Hearing this remark, Qi Jingzhi was a little dumbfounded, but he also knew that this senior had an upright temperament. Since his ancestor had ordered him, he might not give up easily.

With an idea, he pointed at the long messy white hair on Old Mandrill's chin: "You have a beard, so it's only natural for me to call you Senior!"

Hearing this, Old Mandrill was obviously taken aback, and quickly touched his chin with his paws, then froze in place, his eyebrows furrowed into a ball.

Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi coughed lightly, and quickly changed the subject: "Senior seems to like my mount very much? It is called Bannu, and it was originally a mortal horse. By chance, it got Tiger Sha and Jin Sha, and it became a horse. The current appearance seems to have revived a trace of the blood of the ancient benevolent beast Zouwu."

After finishing speaking, the young man's heart suddenly moved, and he thought to himself: "Bannu has been recognized by the Zouwu Banner Spirit, so the blood may still grow. Although the quality of this so-called benevolent beast is a bit poor, it may not be green on the ancestral grave. Smoke. How about...be nicer to this fellow from now on?"

Old Mandrill was distracted by Qi Jingzhi's question, so he couldn't help stretching out his claws to stroke Bannu's mane, grinning and saying, "We apes like horses the most."

"I heard from my ancestors... I have a distant relative whose body is a booing ape. He is best at healing dragon colts. Now he works in the Dragon Shepherd Academy of Biluo Palace. If I succeed in my practice in the future, I can go to him and join him. It's good to find a decent background..."

When Lao Man told the news that even Qi Jingzhi was quite surprised, he suddenly changed the subject: "The ancestor's truth is always good, I have a beard, and I am a senior!"

This old mountain mandrill with thick head and heels pointed at himself first, and then at the young man: "You have no beard, you are a Daoist brother!"
