Chapter 224 The Strange Monk

"You mean the insect tide? It was killed more than ten days ago..."

Hearing this, the guard relaxed his vigilance a lot, and then he was eager to show off.

But before he could say anything, another older guard crossed his arm and blocked him.

"Sir, forgive my ignorance, I have never heard of this Sancunshan Zenlan Temple.

But you said that you came here to chase the insect tide, which must be hundreds of kilometers away.

You are very strong to be able to cross such a long distance in the Northeast Snow Ridge?

Did you encounter any cities along the way?"

The middle-aged guard asked questions one by one, and his eyes were still vigilant when looking at the monk.

It has been so long since the spiritual energy was revived, and he has seen a lot of things.

Now, humans are not necessarily good people, and evolved creatures are not necessarily bad.

In other words, no matter what race, there is no distinction between good and bad, only differences in stance and purpose.

For Cannes, what is good to Cannes people is good, whether it is a good person or a good beast.

These monks, I don't know where they came from. Under the current environment, they can travel a long way and come to Cannes. They must be extraordinary.

If they are very powerful, for the principle of being prepared, without being sure whether they are friendly or not, they must be regarded as threats first.

"Haha, all the monks in my Sancunshan Zenlan Temple are ascetic monks, and they have no reputation in the past.

It is normal that the donor does not know the name, so don't mind.

As for strength... We practice Buddhism in a pure way, and our state of mind is still good. After the spiritual energy is revived, our cultivation will be improved by leaps and bounds.

Although we have not fought, I can subdue the insect monster by myself, otherwise I would not dare to chase and subdue the monster.

Along the way, we encountered two cities, one was overturned by the insect monster, and the other was affected. Both were devastated and the people were living in misery.

It is precisely for this reason that we have traveled such a long distance to come and subdue the monster."

The tall monk bowed and then slowly spoke.

At the end, his face was filled with compassion, as if he felt sorry for the dead souls in the insect tide.

"Great! Sure enough, there are other cities that can survive!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged guard said happily.

Cannes has been isolated for more than a month.

Although, in the news heard, only one city was destroyed, and another city was affected by the insect tide, and the situation is likely to be worse than Cannes.

But knowing that it is not the only surviving city is enough to cheer people up!

"Tsk~! So what if you are powerful? You still go down the mountain to exorcise demons...

By the time you arrive, Cannes will be gone."

The young guard on the side said quite unhappy.

"Xiao Li!"

The middle-aged guard pulled the young guard.

Everyone knows that these bald donkeys are powerful, but they dare to offend like this, are they going to die?

Although, he also felt that these monks arrived in Cannes more than ten days later, and said that they have the strength to defeat the insect tide, which is a bit of hindsight.

"It is indeed our fault.

But the people in the cities affected by the insect monsters before were injured and miserable.

If we don't care, they will die soon. Please forgive us."

The tall monk was not angry, but admitted his mistake immediately.

"Humph! That's better."

The young guard snorted.

"We didn't catch up. I wonder who killed the insect monster and saved the people of Kangcheng?

I would like to meet such a hero and pay my respects to him."

Seeing this, the tall monk paused for a moment, then continued the topic.

"Hey, you don't have any experience with this, right?

It's not a hero, it's the mountain god!"

Hearing this, the young guard immediately became excited and said proudly.

"Mountain god?"

The tall monk frowned and asked in confusion.

"You don't know this, right?

There was a big guy in the insect swarm, dozens of meters long and thicker than a train, definitely a third-level evolved creature!

At that time, we didn't have a third-level strongman in Kangcheng, and we used a lot of explosive packs, but we couldn't kill that ghost thing!

Even if our most powerful group of evolvers went there, they could only scratch its skin.

Just when we ran out of ammunition and food... hey, guess what?

At this time, a big black snake, four tigers, and a sable came to help us!

In no time, we killed the big insect!

Later, we learned that the four tigers were a family rescued by our Director Qin when he was investigating a criminal gang of poachers. They came to repay their gratitude!

But this gratitude saved our entire Kangcheng, which was a huge favor.

So we built a mountain temple for them and offered incense.

Although it is of no use to the mountain gods, it is at least a way to express our gratitude!

Now everyone is outside, so there is nothing to burn incense. When we come back at night, the incense will be very strong! "

The young guard pointed to the small temple beside the gate of the wall and said talkatively.

"Those tigers are really affectionate and righteous."

The tall monk listened to the young guard's story quietly, with no sadness or joy on his face.

"Of course... Wait, why are you leaving?"

The young guard nodded, then asked in confusion.

The group of more than a dozen monks just wanted to enter the city, but now they seem to be leaving.

"Since the matter of the insect monster has been resolved, the people along the way will be free from disasters, and the purpose of our coming here has been achieved.

In this case, let's say goodbye and return to the small temple to chant Buddha's name, recite scriptures, and practice in seclusion."

The tall monk smiled with narrowed eyes.

"Oh~! Wait! When Bureau Qin and the others come back, we can ask about the situation in the other two cities!"

Seeing these monks walking further and further away, the young guard shouted loudly.

"No need, the donor only needs to follow the river downstream, and the remaining city will be within 700 miles.

As for the destroyed city, it was completely ruined by the insect monster, so I don’t know. "

The tall monk had walked hundreds of meters away, but the loud shouts could still reach the ears of the young guard.

After saying that, the tall monk disappeared into the forest and disappeared from the eyes of the guards.

"Bah~! What an eminent monk! By the time they arrive, the day lilies will be cold!"

Seeing them walking away, the young guard spat and said rather unhappily.

"wrong……"

At this time, the middle-aged guard looked at the direction where the monks were leaving from a distance, frowning.

"Uncle Wang, what's wrong?"

The young guard wondered.

"The behavior of this group of monks is wrong."

The middle-aged guard said firmly.

"Behavior... I feel like they are quite normal, but they are just late."

The young guard pondered for a moment and became even more puzzled.

“They say they are here to slay demons. If that’s the case, then they are good monks who are compassionate towards the common people.

But when they heard that the insect demon was dead, they had to go back to the temple to clean up...

The revival of spiritual energy will definitely affect the entire earth. If insect monsters do evil, there will be other powerful evolved creatures that endanger the safety of mankind.

Even if our situation in Cannes is good, then they should continue to look for new cities to rescue. Is there any reason to go directly? "

The middle-aged guard analyzed it carefully, his expression becoming more solemn.

"Uncle Wang, you mean, they are lying?"

The young guard suddenly understood and then asked.

"Xiao Li! You have good physical strength. Run to the nearest outpost now and tell Director Qin the news! Hurry!"

The middle-aged guard thought for a moment and then said decisively.
