Early morning, fresh breeze, clear temple, clear bell.

Yan Fei stayed for three nights at Hua Man's house halfway up Lingqiu Mountain, and according to the agreement with Miaozhi, he went up the mountain to pick up Hua Xi and return to the Dark Night Villa today.

The snow was falling in the temple, and from a distance, you could see a red vine carrying a bucket of something staggering forward, and then fell into Miaozhi's arms.

"Why are you running out to rest in the house on such a cold day?" Miaozhi took the bucket in Hua Man's hand distressedly and hugged the person tighter.

The flower vine nested comfortably in Miaozhi's arms, but there was a deliberate bit of anger on his mouth, "I sealed a few lychees in the snow waterfall last year, and the things that were sealed in the snow waterfall all year round are still smooth and delicious even if they are taken out again the next year." Didn't you say last night that you wanted to eat fresh lychees, but unfortunately the time was wrong? At the end of the day, I'm all to blame for my wrestling. ”

"Blame me. Miao Zhi smiled and kissed the corner of the flower vine's forehead, and walked forward with the person, and after a few steps, she met Yan Fei, who had been standing in the ice and snow for I don't know how long.

"Yan Fei, you're here. ”

Yan Fei nodded at Miaozhi, "Master Miaozhi." ”

"Flowers, you go in first. Miaozhi patted Hua Man's hand and handed the bucket full of lychees to Hua Man.

Hua Man turned around and instructed Yan Fei, "Don't leave in a hurry, I'll wash some lychees for you to take away." ”

"Okay. Yan Fei smiled and agreed.

Miaozhi took Yan Fei's hand and took her to see Hua Xi, but she didn't make a sound all the way, until she came to Hua Xi's room, and then said with a smile: "I have done my best." ”

"Ah, okay, I see. Yan Fei calmly replied, and suddenly sat on the ground with a fart/strand and cried.

"......" Miaozhi patted her shoulder awkwardly, "Ahem, did you misunderstand something?"

"Woo woo woo me, I didn't misunderstand, woo woo woo I woo ......"

Hua Xi just fell into a coma, and his life was not in danger. ”

"......" Yan Fei raised his head and looked at Miaozhi with red eyes, and burst out with an earth-shattering roar, "Didn't you say !!it earlier?"

"It's more acceptable to you. Miaozhi is still gentle and benevolent, but in Yan Fei's eyes, he actually has a bit of fox cunning. She seriously doubted that the wonderful branch in front of her had been infected by the flower vine.

"I asked Bang Ye to come and pick people up, I don't know how to drive. Yan Fei said and took out his mobile phone to edit the message and send it to Bang Ye.

Miaozhi waited for Yan Fei to finish sending the text message, and led Yan Fei to sit down by the two stone piers.

"What is this for?" Yan Fei was puzzled by her action and asked puzzled.

"It should take a little time for that girl to come. The lychees are almost ready, so you might as well eat a few here first, and you and I can have a chat. Miaozhi didn't hurry, stretched out his hand, and took two thin snows. The two thin snows melted into the transparent and white palms of the wonderful branches in an instant, leaving a little bit of crystal.

"It's good to be a monk. Yan Fei looked at her and sighed, "The scenery here is good, there is no dispute with the world, and it is really a pleasure to live." ”

"If you can do it, you can live a very comfortable life even in the downtown area. Miao Zhi smiled lightly, took the tea set from the tea room next door, and connected the power supply to boil the spring water to make tea for Yan Fei.

Yan Fei took the small fragrant tea, stroked the smooth rim of the cup with his fingertips, and suddenly asked, "Don't you regret it?"

"What regret is, I never know. Miaozhi took a sip of tea and let out a mouthful of white mist, "While the snow is falling just right, I'll tell you a story." ”

"Okay. Yan Fei refilled her with tea from Miaozhi and held it in the palm of her hand to warm her hands.

"In the Western Heavens, in the world of the Buddhas, there is a lotus pond. The lotus blossoms in the pond are as big as wheels, and the colors reflect each other delicately and fragrantly. One day, one of the white lotus flowers actually gave birth to a branch of the clams, which is a sacred object of Buddhism and was born on the white lotus, which is the most holy thing. The Buddha moved it into a new pond and waited for it to bloom independently. Unexpectedly, he was entangled in the flower vine of a mandala flower next to him and couldn't bloom. ”

"The clam branch is actually more than capable of melting the vine that binds itself, and at first it did think of doing so. But by chance, when I saw the sleeping appearance of the vine, I gave up this practice. Because, that was the first time, I felt a different kind of happiness. ”

"It even began to think that it would be nice to keep going like this. ”

"It is said that the vines have destroyed the branches, but if the branches are not accompanied by vines, there is no loneliness in this life. ”

Miaozhi took a sip of tea after speaking, "Eh, the tea is cold." I'll boil another pot. ”

Yan Fei continued to drink the herbal tea, and said with a cup of bottomed out: "And then?"

Miaoeda seemed a little surprised, "What?"

"The follow-up to the story. Yan Fei handed the empty teacup to Miaozhi, "Does the Buddha just let them go like that?

Miaozhi showed a smile of unknown meaning, skillfully dividing the tea, "Follow-up, today is not the time." When the time comes, I will speak to you. ”

“…… It's good if you're happy. Yan Fei shook his head helplessly, isn't it the story of you and Hua Man in his heart, if there is an opportunity for wool, alas, the monks like to play tricks......

Snow.

Endless snow, sprinkled on this land.

I, on the other hand, am the only resident here.

I don't know where I'm from, but I know that I'll never get out.

I can't live without here.

The place is actually beautiful, with very soft beds, beautiful screens, and very sweet fruits. But I don't like it at all, for no reason, it's just instinctive rejection.

I woke up in a snowy field, and when I stood up, there was a big patch of snow stuck to my head. Later I learned that the filaments were not snow, but the color was the same as snow, but they did grow on my head. The book says it's hair.

There are a lot of books here, and to be honest, I've never seen those symbols, but miraculously can read them. I gained a lot of knowledge from the book, and I came to know that this place was called Night Villa, and the reason why it was called a villa was because it was not the first place to live.

Why? I am here, I live here, why is this called a villa?

I don't understand, I've looked through all the books here, but I still haven't gotten an answer.

It's okay, one day, I'll know why. Because I have boundless years, endless power. I can wait.

Gradually, I began to realize that I had some special ability to repair fruit that had been frozen by snow, and to make the petals of flowers that had fallen on the ground return to the branches and fall again. It's a lot of fun, but I can't get any interest after trying it once.

It's boring.

I'm here, as if there's nothing to do.

I'm not going to die, so I don't have to look for food and water to drink. I don't get old, so I don't have to worry about my physical condition.

So what's my point?

I...... What can be done?

One day, I woke up from my attic for a thousand years, and the sun was shining on my face, making me very uncomfortable. When I turned around, I was surprised to find a similar clock made in some small country on the other side of the world next to my pillow, a pocket watch to be exact.

I opened it with a little interest, and saw that there were ninety-nine engraved dials in the pocket watch, each of which was densely packed with values and a stagnant hand. I stretched out my finger and gently flicked the pointer in one of the engraved plates, and in the middle of my breath I noticed that the space suddenly turned, and I was sucked in with a huge force!

The piercing buzz resounded in my head, and I covered my ears with both hands, only to find out in despair that the source of the sound was not the outside world at all, it was in my head!

I was in pain, and there was nothing as far as my eyes could see!

I don't know where I am, and I don't know what I've done to get to where I am!

The pocket watch in my hand instantly became hot, and my palm burned from it, and the familiar pain of peeling skin and bones swept through my whole body again......

This is not a villa in the dark. Where the hell is this......

——————

When I woke up again, I went back to the villa where I had been imprisoned. And the pocket watch that had killed me was lying quietly on the bookcase in the attic, reflecting the rivers and mountains carved in the jade screen, emitting a dark golden light.

After this incident, I no longer dared to touch the pocket watch, and when I wrote on the bookcase, I chose to sit in the farthest position from it. It was like a fire that would burn me up at the touch of it.

Though I am disgusted with life, I will not seek death.

I've read most of the books in the Night Villa, and I finally have a little understanding of my role.

In this world, there is a mysterious substance called the magnetic field. Creatures from all walks of life, either out of love or greed or out of despair or out of remorse, once the magnetic field value on their body matches the magnetic field value range of the villa, they will become so-called "tenants", and their existence will have an impact on the world they live in. As a villa resident, I'm responsible for bringing these "tenants" back into their original world.

Just controlling the magnetic field balance sounds simple, but my gut tells me it's not easy.

So, when will the tenants show up? I can't wait to see what they look like, and my life, which is as plain as a silent sea without wind and waves, finally has a little hope.

I began to carefully select my clothes every day, match the appropriate hairstyle, and sit on the Lingqiu Ancient Wood Taishi chair in the villa day after day, waiting for the arrival of the first tenant of the Dark Night Villa.

I don't know how long I've been waiting......

Ten years, one hundred years, one thousand years, ten thousand years......

But when the four chains slowly stretched, and the door of the villa reverberated heavily—

I know, I've waited.

Like a bird, I happily walked through the layers of gauze curtains and gently spread in the wind, through the long pavilions and corridors crisscrossing me, passing over the blue water pool, flying down the white jade steps, opening the silk tent, and bypassing the bluestone screen...... Finally, I came to the gate of the villa.

At first glance, I saw a green bamboo umbrella. Immediately afterwards, pieces of red fell into a dream. 166 Reading Network
