The Imperial Palace of Lieyang Kingdom is like the Moon Palace. If anyone hears the conversation inside at this time, they will definitely be surprised. Someone actually dares to talk to the emperor like this.
A slightly evil female voice asked: "Why don't you force him to stay?"
"What you are asking makes no sense. We are just friends. How can we force ourselves to have guests?" Gong Ruyue.
"Ha, friend? You can deceive others but you can't deceive me. Who wouldn't want a man like him?"
"I will handle this matter myself, so don't worry about it." Gong Ruyue said calmly.
"I'm really fed up with your character! You never dare to fight for what you want. You'll only let others bully you if you obey. Why bother with this kind of thing? Just sleep with him and he can turn the world upside down."
"I have my own plan. After all these years, I am not the same person I used to be. It's just that the time has not come yet." After Gong Ruyue finished speaking, the other voice said no more, and the dormitory became quiet again.
…
In the ancient temple, the harsh sound of "squeaking" nails continued. Shen Xuan and Dabao remained motionless. This scene was too breathtaking. Shen Xuan was not afraid of a fight with real swords and guns. He was afraid of this.
"The decision is made by you. Dabao goes and takes a look."
"I won't go, I'm afraid."
"You're a donkey monster and you're still afraid of ghosts?"
"I am a fairy horse."
"Go and see, you will be considered a fairy horse from now on."
Dabao stopped talking, and Shen Xuan shook his head, "I gave you a chance, but you're useless."
Shen Xuan casually chatted with Dabao, but in fact he was already approaching the bed slowly, when suddenly there was a flash in the sky, and a huge thunder exploded.
"There's someone outside!" Dabao shouted.
Shen Xuan cursed in his heart. Before he could be frightened by the ghost, this guy was frightened to death. When he turned around, it was still dark outside.
"What did you see?" Shen Xuan asked.
"There was a flash of lightning just now, and there seemed to be many figures outside the window." As Dabao was talking, there were pitiful cries outside. There was not just one, but many, crying, laughing, and howling like ghosts and wolves.
Chen Xuan suddenly thought of something, summoned his spiritual power and shouted, "Dang!"
With his loud shout filled with spiritual power, everything became quiet. Under the bed, behind the Buddha statue and other places, some black gas visible to the naked eye evaporated.
This is caused by Yin evil spirit, but why is the Yin energy so strong in this important place of Buddhism?
This is not really haunted. The Yin Qi has no intelligence, it is just the residual resentment after death. However, many people must have died here. For cultivators, even the lowest cultivators are not afraid of mere cultivators. Yin Qi, but the reason for the formation of Yin Qi must make him vigilant.
With various questions, Shen Xuan carefully checked the main hall again. After confirming that there were no other problems, Shen Xuan asked Dabao to keep watch overnight. It was not that he abused the donkey, but the sleeping habits of animals and people were different. Dabao could sleep in sections, and He is a donkey demon and sleeps less, so he is suitable for keeping vigil.
After an uneventful night, Shen Xuan woke up. It was still raining heavily outside the palace. He was not in a hurry. After washing up, he first turned the two rooms connected to the left and right again. He could not see clearly at night, and maybe There will be omissions.
After finding nothing, he started cooking breakfast. He was self-sufficient and lived a happy life. Anyway, he didn't want to leave until he figured out what happened in this ruined temple. He wanted to see who dared to scare him.
After the meal, Shen Xuan brewed a pot of good tea for himself, lit a furnace of sandalwood, and sat in an ancient temple in the mountains, under the continuous rain, listening to the wind and rain, drinking slowly and carefully, and waiting for the rain to stop.
Outside the temple, it was raining heavily, and there was a feeling of desolation and loneliness. Shen Xuan didn't care about this loneliness. It was actually good to have a chance to be alone with himself occasionally.
"Ah-yah! Ah-yah!"
He had forgotten that there was a donkey. Shen Xuan put down his tea cup in disappointment and said angrily: "Speak humanly!"
Dabao didn't care, he clicked his lips and said casually: "Someone is coming."
Thunderbolts exploded in the sky and rolling thunder resounded across the earth. At this time, there were people coming to such a ruined temple in a barren mountain. It made people think too much. Shen Xuan remained calm, sat firmly on his chair and continued to drink tea, but his eyes were firmly locked on each other. At the palace gate.
Soon, Shen Xuan also heard a voice. The footsteps of a person did not sound like a cultivator. The footsteps gradually came closer and finally stopped outside the door. He was probably taking shelter from the rain under the eaves.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, but after only one knock, a soft female voice murmured in a low voice: "I am really stupid in reading, how can there be anyone in this place?"
The door was pushed open with a "squeak". Outside, the wind and rain were blowing. A frail girl of seventeen or eight years old was carrying a heavy book. She was wearing a cream-white Confucian jacket with a blue border and a pair of trousers. She was wearing a navy blue crotch skirt, and most of her clothes had been soaked by the wind and rain.
The girl just took a step forward. After seeing the situation in the room clearly, she immediately became crazy. She opened her small mouth in surprise and stared at Shen Xuan as if he had been cast a restraining spell. She was stunned for a long time before she suddenly realized what she said. He shouted "Ah!" and then hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.
Probably remembering the principle of "don't look at anything that's offensive", she turned her hand to cover her eyes, but she still wanted to leave. Unable to see, she panicked, turned around, bumped into the door frame, touched the door frame and walked out, almost again He tripped over the threshold and finally closed the door for Shen Xuan with his eyes tightly closed.
The girl's operation was extremely embarrassing, but she was also naive and extremely cute. Shen Xuan only focused on watching the show and didn't even have time to say a word to her.
After a while, the girl seemed unable to believe what she had just seen. She carefully opened a crack in the door and peeked in. After realizing that it was not an hallucination, she immediately let out a soft cry and turned back in embarrassment.
The girl outside the door caressed her chest and finally calmed down her racing heart. She straightened her clothes seriously. She faced the door and said sincerely: "I accidentally entered the fairy resting place, student..."
Due to the excessive nervousness, the girl could not help but vibrate in every word she spoke. Her accent was too weird, and she couldn't speak after she finished speaking. She coughed lightly and spoke again.
"It is a sin for the student to accidentally enter the fairy's resting place. I am very frightened. I hope you will forgive Cai'er for the offense." After saying that, the girl named Cai'er bowed deeply and said, "Bang!" Bow didn't control the distance properly, hit his head directly on the door, and then pushed the door open.
The young girl Cai'er covered her forehead, Xuexue whined in pain, but she didn't forget to close the door quickly. The man in the room was so beautiful that she had never heard of him. He was definitely a fairy from the Nine Heavens!
Shen Xuan felt a little sore after hearing this.
"I'm an ordinary person. Girl, please come in. I just happen to be passing by and taking shelter from the rain."
"Ah..." Ning Cai'er was still hesitant. She was a scholar. Even if Shen Xuan didn't mind, she still felt that it was unreasonable for a man and a woman to live in the same room.
"There are two side rooms on the left and right of this hall. It's windy and rainy outside, and the girl got caught in the rain. It's a good idea to come in and change clothes."
The door was opened slowly, and Ning Cai'er walked in uneasily. She glanced at the fairy again with a red face, and then ran into the side room with her head lowered without daring to say another word.
Ning Cai'er came out after changing her clothes. She was less embarrassed and more bookish, but her face was still red. She took a few steps forward and apologized again in a serious manner: "Student Luo Xingcheng, Ning Cai'er just came in uninvited, it's really..."
Shen Xuan smiled and interrupted her: "Miss Ning, you don't have to be polite. Let's not talk about this anymore. Come sit down and have a cup of tea together."
The words she had prepared in advance were not spoken. Ning Cai'er didn't know what to say for a moment, so she took the opportunity to sit down.
Shen Xuan wanted to laugh when he saw her sitting upright, like a primary school student waiting for the teacher's instruction. He poured a cup of hot tea, handed it to her and asked, "I see that Miss Ning is also a traveler. Where are you planning to go?"
Ning Cai'er took the tea cup with both hands and said: "Your Majesty, Zeng Kai Enke, I passed by here on my way to take the exam. Last night, I stayed at a farmhouse. It rained all night. It stopped raining this morning. I thought of rushing on as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, I stopped halfway. Get down."
This is right. Ning Cai'er should really be an ordinary scholar. Shen Xuan did hear Gong Ruyue mention Enke before in the secret room of the imperial study.
The decorations in the hall were incompatible with the entire Buddhist hall, but they were quite consistent with the fairy in gorgeous clothes in front of her. They were probably specially decorated by this fairy. Ning Cai'er was curious and asked doubtfully: " Immortal...Why are you here, Master, and why are you bringing so many things with you?"
Of course, this was due to Shen Xuan accidentally exaggerating the ostentation, but he didn't want to admit it, so he deliberately asked with a surprised look on his face: "These are all necessary things for traveling, why didn't Miss Ning bring them?"
Ning Cai'er was speechless for a moment. Shen Xuan's words were completely beyond her understanding. Is it common sense to bring furniture when going out? Something must be wrong, but why did this young master say it so naturally? Is it true that he is ignorant?
Ning Cai'er's face turned red from holding back, Shen Xuan chuckled, stopped teasing her, and started talking about other things.
In this world, shy girls like Ning Cai'er are so rare. Shen Xuan felt like he had hooked up with a beautiful woman in his previous life, so he accidentally made two connotative jokes while chatting, Fortunately, Ning Cai'er was really innocent and didn't understand it at all.
Shen Xuan felt very good. Finally, he was teasing the beauty instead of being teased by her.
Shen Xuan felt good, but he didn't know that Ning Cai'er had already flown into the sky. When he was full, Ning Cai'er was already overflowing. She was filled to the brim with happiness.
She seemed to be floating on the clouds at the moment, so happy that it was unreal. She was in a ruined temple in the mountains, met a beautiful fairy, and was actively invited to drink tea and chat. No matter how she thought about it, it was very bizarre. How could such a good thing happen in the world.
Ning Cai'er actually felt that something was wrong. She opened the door of a ruined temple, but inside it was fully furnished, and there was a fairy sitting inside... No, such an approachable person might not be a fairy. This was clearly a ghost fox story in a novel. He was so beautiful. It doesn't look like a human being, it's probably some kind of demon that turned into a human being.
She is just shy, but not really stupid. This young master, who doesn’t know whether he is a ghost or a fox, did it too obviously. This is probably the first time he comes out to harm people. If you break the temple, you will break the temple. Why do you need to conjure up something like this? What about furniture?
In the stories told in the scripts, these ghost foxes are meant to enchant women and use the art of harvesting yin and replenishing yang. What is even worse is that they directly chew up the bones and swallow the blood.
Ning Cai'er knows that she is in very danger now, and if she doesn't find a way to escape quickly, her life may be in danger, but...Dad, I'm sorry, my daughter is unfilial, he is too beautiful, I can't leave anymore.
Now I just hope that my yin energy is enough so that I can be replenished a few more times, or that the master can be gentler when eating me. When I think of the possibility of being replenished, Ning Cai'er doesn't want to leave even more. If it's just If she is taken tonic, she will not necessarily die. Maybe as time goes by, she will fall in love, and the master will be soft-hearted and let her breathe.
Ning Cai'er decided to preach as many saintly principles as possible to see if she could influence the young master. After all, he was so beautiful, he spoke well, and his heart was definitely not bad.
"Ah-yah! Ah-yah!"
The friendly atmosphere of communication between handsome men and beauties was ruined by the two voices of the donkey demon. Shen Xuan had once asked Dabao not to talk in front of ordinary people. Now Dabao suddenly made a donkey bray. Shen Xuan had already guessed what was going on.
Another person is here, a lone traveler, and he is a cultivator. His specific realm is unknown, so he cannot listen to his footsteps.
Shen Xuan's heart trembled. He felt that it was too coincidental. He could meet another cultivator in such a poor place. Could the other cultivator be here just for him?
The door was kicked open, and the wind and rain blew in. Shen Xuan had been prepared for it, but Ning Cai'er was startled. She turned around and saw a man in his forties, with very unkempt clothes and an ordinary appearance. The woman is standing proudly at the door.
Ning Cai'er only took one look and was struck by her power. This woman had an ordinary appearance and was not tall. However, her eyes were so sharp and she seemed to be carrying a sword behind her. She did not look like a kind person.
Ning Cai'er was a little scared, but she still stood up and stood in front of Shen Xuan. She just roughly guessed that Shen Xuan was a goblin, but she wasn't sure. Now that she met a dangerous person, even if she was afraid, she still wanted to protect Shen Xuan first. of.
Ning Cai'er felt that the other party was not a good person, so she deliberately chose a small issue to try to suppress the other party's arrogance first, so that she would not be arrogant and would not dare to do evil.
Although the idea was childish, Ning Cai'er was just a fledgling girl. It was good to have the quick wit to come up with countermeasures. She deliberately lowered her voice and asked: "Aren't you a little rude? Why don't you knock on the door?" Just break in through the door?"
She felt that what she said was reasonable, but unfortunately, the visitor ignored her at all. The woman carrying the sword looked around, then said nothing, and went directly into the east side room.
Just a moment later, a voice came from the east side room and said, "This place is ominous. I advise you both to leave as soon as the rain stops."
Shen Xuan couldn't let a cultivator of unknown origin sleep next door. He had to trick the other person, so he also said: "May I ask your Excellency, how do you call him?"
"Swordsman, Yan Xixia."
Shen Xuan was stunned, Yan Yuxia? Ning Cai'er? He hurriedly ran out of the hall in the rain, looked up and saw the plaque on the ruined temple, which read three simple characters, Lanruo Temple.
