“what?”
“You just saved your life. Don’t you want to take a rest?”
Tu Shan Honghong was a little surprised when she saw the other party said he wanted to go right away.
The scorpion demon nodded without saying anything, but his eyes were full of seriousness.
Tushan Honghong glanced at the other person, then looked at Cui Yuling on the side.
“It’s okay. I can move around normally. As long as I don’t use my magic power to fight, it’ll be fine if I tear the wound.”
Cui Yuling understood and replied softly.
“Okay, in that case, come with me.”
After hearing what the doctor said, Tu Shan Hong Hong did not hesitate and decided to set off immediately.
Chapter 546: The Great Monk and the Uninvited Guest
In the human world, in a certain city, in a luxurious mansion.
At this moment, the mansion was decorated with lights and the servants were busy pasting big red paper on the doors and curtains.
Looking at the two big “囍” characters, one can tell at a glance that this is a wedding.
The common people passing by would occasionally congratulate the housekeeper outside the mansion, creating a joyous scene.
“Butler Liu! Congratulations!”
“Congratulations, congratulations to your Su family’s eldest young master marrying the Lin family’s eldest young lady!”
“Hahahaha!”
“Excuse me, everyone. Come on, come on! These are some small gifts that the master is distributing to all the neighbors to celebrate the young master’s wedding. Let’s share in the joy together!”
The middle-aged man, who was surrounded and flattered by the people, stroked his moustache and waved to the servants behind him.
Upon seeing this, the servants hurriedly took out some small sacks from a large wooden box nearby.
These small sacks are filled with rice.
When it was distributed to the people, it felt heavy in their hands, as if it weighed a full ten kilograms.
It is enough for these ordinary people to eat for a while.
The people have received such a great favor, so naturally they are grateful to the master of the Su family.
Everyone kept sending blessings, which made housekeeper Liu extremely proud.
Gifts were being distributed outside the mansion, while many dignitaries were welcomed inside.
These people all sat in the VIP seats and chatted and laughed with the old man sitting at the first seat.
The old man sitting in the first seat was over sixty years old. Although he had an erect beard, his face was energetic and rosy, and he did not look old at all.
The old man was none other than the patriarch of the Su family.
While these distinguished guests were talking with the head of the Su family, they secretly glanced at the monk who was sitting on the side with his hands clasped together, eyes closed, and chanting Buddhist mantras in a low voice.
Everyone present knew the identity of this monk.
He is the master of the famous temple, Hanshan Temple, and his Buddhist name is Juekong.
Today is not the young master of the Su family’s wedding day. The other party’s wedding day is the day after tomorrow.
However, these people came to visit so early mainly because they came for Master Juekong and the scorpion fairy.
The head of the Su family also knew this, but did not say anything.
After all, the person sitting here is not a smart person.
Each of them is aware of the other’s purpose.
After some pleasantries, someone soon asked about the scorpion fairy.
“Master Su, it is rumored that your son has been harassed by a female scorpion demon recently. Is this true?”
“Oh? Scorpion demon? Young Master Su is so lucky! Not only did he marry the beautiful Miss Lin home, but now he is also being controlled by a demon. It’s really enviable!”
“That’s right, it’s said that the Scorpion Siren is as beautiful as a flower, just like a lotus emerging from the water. Wow, I admire you so much!”
“Ha ha ha ha……”
Only one person started this conversation, and the others followed suit, quickly turning the topic to the scorpion demon.
The head of the Su family heard what the other party said and cursed in his heart: You know it’s all true, do you still need to ask more questions? What a bunch of old foxes!
On the surface, the head of the Su family remained calm and nodded calmly.
“Ugh!”
“Speaking of this, I feel worried!”
“I rarely come into contact with monsters, so how come I’m being entangled by a scorpion monster? What bad luck!”
When the head of the Su family said this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face, which was somewhat true and somewhat false.
“Oh! In my opinion, it’s because Young Master Su is too outstanding! That’s why the monster has his eyes on him!”
“Yeah yeah!”
“Master Su, why worry about this? Young Master Su can just take that scorpion demon as his concubine!”
“Yes, yes, it’s not bad to enjoy the happiness of having two wives!”
“…”
Each of these distinguished guests suggested that the Su family simply accept the scorpion banshee.
When the head of the Su family heard these people’s words, he couldn’t help but sneer in his heart.
Humph! These people are more sinister than each other. They actually want to harm my Su family!
The shrewd head of the Su family saw through the intentions of these people at a glance.
Let his son take a demon as a concubine? This is totally harming their Su family!
For ordinary people, having a connection with the demon race will not cause any trouble. At most, they will just have to endure other people’s strange looks and gossip behind their backs.
But a family as prominent as his, the Su family, could easily get into trouble.
If others directly report to the Yiqi Dao League that the Su family intends to collude with the demon clan, then their Su family will face endless troubles.
By that time, even if the facts were clarified, the Su family would have already been shattered.
These people simply wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a quick buck and take over their family’s business.
The Patriarch of the Su family was not fooled and waved his hands repeatedly and said:
“No, no, no, everyone. This witch is too good for me!”
“And you may not have seen what happened that day. The half-human half-scorpion, with a pitch-black tail and poisonous needles that were harder than stone and steel, was terrifying.”
“I don’t want to be scared by that look again. I still want to live a few more years!”
The head of the Su family showed a bitter and helpless look on his face, and used a teasing way to directly resolve the thoughts of these people.
“If Master Juekong hadn’t been here today, I’m afraid that our entire Su family would have become food for that scorpion demon!”
“.Everyone, please stop teasing me!”
He turned the topic to Monk Juekong.
The others did not feel too sorry when they saw that the head of the Su family did not fall for it.
After all, everyone knows that the other party will not be fooled by such a simple calculation.
Then these people set their sights on the monk Juekong who was standing nearby.
“Master Juekong is extraordinary. He took down the banshee with just one move. His magical power is truly boundless!”
“That’s right! Master Juekong, can you tell me about the strength of that female demon? Is she a problem?”
“Nonsense! With Master Juekong’s strength, it’s easy for him to deal with a little female demon. How could he find it difficult?”
“Master Juekong, are you free recently? If you are free, you can come to my house and sit for a while. I want to listen to the Buddhist truth.”
“…”
These people were all very polite to the monk, with fawning and flattering looks on their faces.
“Amitabha!”
Master Juekong’s expression remained unchanged and he chanted the Buddha’s name softly.
“I appreciate the kindness of all donors!”
“If you want to listen to the true principles of Buddhism, you can come to my Hanshan Temple and listen.”
“As for the scorpion demon, it has been injured by my magical weapon, the vajra, so it has no chance of survival.”
“So Mr. Su can rest assured!”
Master Juekong turned the Buddhist beads in one hand and nodded to the head of the Su family who was sitting in the first seat.
The head of the Su family felt relieved when he heard this.
He was really afraid that if the other party didn’t kill the monster, and then the other party recovered from its injuries and came again, that would be disastrous.
After all, Master Juekong cannot stay in the Su family forever, and there will always be a time for him to leave.
However, at this moment, a cold snort suddenly came from the sky.
“Hmph, really?”
“This king has not been out of the mountains for such a long time, and I have never heard of the name Juekong!”
“You’re quite arrogant!”
A cold female voice floated into the ears of everyone present and exploded in their minds.
Monk Juekong’s hands, which were originally turning the Buddhist beads, suddenly stopped, his eyes suddenly opened, revealing a hint of vigilance.
Then three figures suddenly appeared in the hall.
Chapter 547: The King of Tushan Arrives, the Old Monk Becomes Frightened
“who?!”
“Who are you? How dare you break into the Su family without permission!”
“Wait…ears?! Youkai?!”
“How could a monster break in here? Could it be that the scorpion monster brought people back for revenge?!”
Everyone was talking to each other, and finally they saw the appearance of the person who came and found out that it was a demon, which scared them.
Not long ago, the scorpion demon was repelled, and now another demon has come to them on their own initiative. They will not think that the other party is an ordinary person!
So at this moment, these distinguished guests stood up from their chairs one after another and quickly moved to the edge of the hall, away from the center of the hall.
The patriarch of the Su family had no time to pay attention to the reactions of the guests. His cloudy and old eyes were fixed on the three people in front of him.
Among them, his eyes were particularly fixed on the woman standing on the far right.
Stunned, his expression was one of shock and disbelief.
“No… Impossible?!”
“You, how come you, a witch, are okay!”
That’s right, the three people who appeared in the hall were Tushan Honghong and the scorpion witch Jiang Mei who came to ask for an explanation.
The other person was Lin Yue who came along.
Although Tushan is not very far from the city, it is not very close either.
At least if you rely on Tushan Honghong’s ability to fly at full speed, it will take several hours.
The fact that the three people were able to arrive here so quickly was naturally thanks to Lin Yue.
Before Tushan Honghong set off, Lin Yue took the initiative to open a portal for them so that they could arrive here instantly.
Although Tushan Honghong felt a little nervous and panicked when she heard that Lin Yue was also going to follow them.
