Chapter 195: You can see the man when you go out of the gate
The peak where Qiqing Temple is located is not the most steep peak in Juyang City. According to ordinary people's understanding, an old Taoist temple like Qiqing Temple will definitely choose a more remote location so that the Taoist priests in the temple can escape.
With no interference from the mortal world, I can cultivate immortality with peace of mind, but this is not the case with Qi Qing Temple. At that time, Qi Qi, the two highest peaks on the side, did not choose, and insisted on choosing the short peak in the middle as the viewing site.
Several Taoist priests who were with Qi at that time didn't understand why Qi made such a choice at that time. However, when Qi Qingguan's incense gradually became more popular, the Taoist priests discovered that the master had chosen this shortest mountain.
Because he wanted to make it more convenient for the people who went up the mountain to burn incense. If the old man Sun Xiaoran said it, what Qi wanted at that time was to make the money for incense at the bottom of the mountain come closer.
For so many years, Qi never explained this problem at that time. He chose the Taoist temple on this shortest mountain. The reason is actually very simple.
Because, only this mountain peak can see the road below.
If someone from the previous dynasty passed by here one day, Qi would be able to see that person's appearance when he walked out of the gate.

The young man sat on the ground and was sweating profusely. While wiping the sweat on his forehead, he said to the little girl next to him: "Stargazing, can you let me rest for a while? I'm really tired."
Compared with the boy's embarrassment, the little girl actually looked contented. Not only was she not as out of breath as the boy, but even her little face had no sweat stains at all. You must know that the sun was already at its most poisonous at this time, even if she was sitting
You can't help but sweat under the sun, not to mention that the two of them are still on the road.
"Oh, tell me how many times you took a break along the way. I, a little girl, can persevere, why can't you persevere?" The little girl pointed at the boy and scolded him.
"I really can't walk anymore, please let me rest." The young man looked at the little girl, his tone even more helpless.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you rest for a while." The girl nodded, sat next to the boy, took out the cherries in the boy's arms and started eating.
After about as long as he could hold a stick of incense, the boy couldn't resist the little girl's urging and started on the road again.
"You said I'm not a girl who feels tired, so why do you feel tired?" The little girl lay on the boy's back and asked in confusion.
The boy looked back at the little girl, his face full of sadness.
"I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?" the little girl asked, patting the boy on the head.
"Maybe it's because you don't have anything on your back." The young man replied helplessly.
"Do you mean I'm sinking?" When the little girl heard this, she stared at the boy and shouted.
"No, that's not what I meant... I just feel that it must be different if I walk with you on my back and with you lying on my body." The boy wiped the sweat on his face and explained.
The little girl was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then she lay down next to the boy's ear and asked with a smile: "Then you mean you want me to carry you?"
"I don't dare..."
"You really don't dare?" the little girl asked with a smile.
"I really don't dare." The young man shook his head quickly.
"Don't dare to be verbose. Hurry up and leave. If you keep going at this speed, neither of us will be able to reach the city in the dark."
The young man looked back at the little girl. He dared not say anything in anger, but silently quickened his pace.
…
After Li Longqian and Ling Shiqing walked out of the ruined temple, Ling Shiqing always felt a little uneasy for some reason, so she still didn't dare to let go even when walking on the street. But when she turned around and looked at Li Longqian, she seemed to be fine.
, walked with a swagger, as if this street belonged to his home, completely unlike a person who had just experienced being chased and narrowly escaped death last night.
"Can you be careful? Didn't those people tell you yesterday that there are many people who want to kill you? If you want to die, can you do it again after I get to Shentian Peak? I don't want to be implicated by you.
"Ling Shiqing walked to Li Longqian and spoke to Li Longqian in a low voice.
When Li Longqian heard this, he spat out the straw in his mouth, looked at Ling Shiqing and said, "Forget it, don't buy any clothes, let's hurry up and hit the road."
When Ling Shiqing heard this, she looked at Li Longqian with wide eyes and shouted, "I'm asking you to be careful. I'm not telling you not to come out. What does this have to do with whether I buy clothes or not?"
"How can you be careful? If you really want to be careful, you shouldn't have time to buy clothes at this time. Even if you are dead, you still have the time to buy clothes?" Li Longqian asked with a smile.
"You! You are so messy." Ling Shiqing stared and gritted her teeth and shouted.
"Then do you want to buy some clothes?" Li Long asked with a smile.
"Buy!" Ling Shiqing reluctantly agreed, then turned around and ran down the street, no longer arguing with Li Longqian. She knew that she could not defeat Li Longqian.
Li Longqian looked at Ling Shiqing's back and smiled helplessly, then followed Ling Shiqing with steps.
Juyang City itself is not a big city, so the distance from this ruined temple to the market is not that far away. The two of them arrived at this street not long after walking. Today may be because the Double Ninth Festival is approaching.
, so there are obviously more vendors on the street than in the past.
Ling Shiqing looked at the dazzling array of products on the street and instantly forgot that Li Longqian was still being hunted. She lost her temper and rushed into the crowd. Li Longqian disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ling Shiqing smiled helplessly when she disappeared. A moment later, Ling Shiqing appeared in front of Li Longqian with two bunches of candied haws in her hand.
He bit a bunch in his mouth and handed one to Li Longqian behind his back.
Li Longqian looked at Ling Shiqing, whose beautiful eyebrows were curved into crescent moons, and who was as happy as a child. She smiled lightly, reached out to take the candied haws, and then asked in a low voice: "Where did you get the money?"
Ling Shiqing was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then realized that she hadn't given anyone any money just now.
"I didn't give anyone money."
Ling Shiqing exclaimed, and then she reached into Li Longqian's arms and took out a few banknotes. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared from Li Longqian's sight.
Li Longqian looked at the bustling crowd and accidentally looked back behind him.
At this time, I don't know when the city gate came out, but a group of officers and soldiers appeared. They looked like they were running towards their location.
Li Longqian took a bite of the candied haws and shouted to the crowd: "Is it done? It's time for us to go."
After Ling Shiqing heard Li Longqian's shout, she turned back to look at Li Longqian, and then said with a smile: "Wait for me."
Li Longqian looked back at the officers and soldiers not far away, nodded slightly, and said "ok".
