Ning Caichen has lived in Lanruo Temple for two days, but he has a feeling of living in Lanruo Temple.

After all, although it is a little shabby, it is far better than the hard work of sleeping in the open air, and most importantly, it doesn't cost anything to live here.

However, it is not a way to go on like this for a long time, Ning Caichen still has to receive the account in the end, so that he can return to his hometown, otherwise he can only be trapped here, and even eating will be a problem.

And one night before that, in the realm of this Lanruo Temple, something happened that he will never forget for the rest of his life.

Ning Caichen was reading a book in the room that day, although he was an unsuccessful scholar, but collecting accounts was only his sideline after all, and reading was his main job, maybe he was like the countless readers in the world, hoping that he could have a gold list title one day.

And at this time, Ning Caichen suddenly heard a melodious sound of the piano and a chorus of a woman chanting a cappella somewhere behind Lanruo Temple.

The sound of the piano and singing was simply the only beautiful sound that Ning Caichen had seen in his life, and he suddenly had an impulse in his heart to go out and explore and see who could perform such a moving movement.

Ning Caichen even forgot to be afraid, changed his previous timid temperament, and walked into the darkness.

Then he met the charming woman who made him think that he could only appear in a dream in a water pavilion, and also had an encounter.

What he didn't know was that if Yan Chixia hadn't arrived in time when he found out about the abnormality, he would have already been sucked into a dried corpse by the monsters, and he couldn't even do it to be a lonely soul and a wild ghost, let alone expect to have a next life.

Ning Caichen hugged the woman's fallen guzheng and chased it all the way, but he didn't know what she was hiding.

"The bad guys just passed by. ”

"Which bad guy?"

"It's the bearded man who lives in Lanruo Temple, if he finds out, we will die!"

"As soon as I saw him, I knew he wasn't a good guy. ”

Yan Chixia was kind enough to rescue, but his vicious appearance with a mixed beard, compared to the woman's unbelievable beauty, it was obvious that Ning Caichen instinctively chose to believe the latter.

The two finally said goodbye, but fortunately, at the last moment, Ning Caichen still knew each other's name - Nie Xiaoqian.

Even with this wonderful encounter like a dream, Ning Caichen still had to face his own practical problems, and his final decision was to fill in the account book by himself.

I have to say that this is really not an honest decision, and the account books are not established by making up them casually, but in today's situation, Ning Caichen can only try this.

Fortunately, he brought the buff of "safe return from Lanruo Temple", and in the boundary of Guobei County, this state is still quite deterrent.

"Have you really lived in Lanruo Temple?" The innkeeper was dumbfounded, and without even verifying the authenticity of the account book, he paid the arrears according to Ning Caichen's instructions.

The innkeeper's only thought at this time was to tell Ning Caichen to get out of here and stop being scary in front of him.

Ning Caichen proudly took the silver and applauded his idea, but he still ignored the countless people who were talking behind him.

After receiving the money, the difficulties faced by Ning Caichen were easily solved, and he was finally able to do something he had wanted to do for a long time, such as buying the painting that he had been looking at for a long time.

It's a pity that the owner of the calligraphy and painting stall searched for a long time, but the picture scroll depicting a woman combing her hair by the water could not be found.

In addition to this disappointment, another thing that Ning Caichen cared about was that he seemed to be in a team doing things and saw Nie Xiaoqian again, but no matter what he called, Nie Xiaoqian didn't look back at him.

Maybe there were too many people, she didn't notice it, Ning Caichen thought in his heart.

Although Ning Caichen had completed the task of collecting the accounts and was actually able to leave Guobei County, he still chose to return to Lanruo Temple again, in addition to the reason that it didn't cost money to live there, he hoped that he could see Nie Xiaoqian again.

Such hope even allowed him to overcome the fear of walking alone at night.

That's right, it was getting late at this time, and if you want to return to Lanruo Temple, you have to go through the woods again at night, and Ning Caichen has not forgotten the scene of being chased by wild wolves in the forest before.

Ning Caichen prepared three lanterns to give himself courage, but the strange thing is that the journey was very smooth today, without encountering any accidents, Ning Caichen quickly returned to Lanruo Temple.

He didn't know that the wild wolf in the woods had already been wiped out by a female ghost.

After cleaning up a little, Ning Caichen went to the water pavilion where he had met Nie Xiaoqian before, but he didn't know that the big long tongue of the tree demon grandmother was already there waiting for him to throw himself into the net.

Fortunately, Nie Xiaoqian really couldn't bear to be such a stupid scholar who was so stupid, but a little kind-hearted, just died in vain, and lured him away with the sound of the piano, but let Ning Caichen, who followed the sound of the piano all the way, find her residence.

This is a complex of buildings that seems to occupy a lot of land, so Ning Caichen mistakenly thought that Nie Xiaoqian was the daughter of a big family, but he didn't know that the entire building in front of him seemed to be real and illusory, but it was just an illusory place composed of the power of the tree demon grandmother.

Ning Caichen strayed into it, and happened to meet Nie Xiaoqian who was taught a hard lesson by the tree demon grandmother, and also knew that Nie Xiaoqian was going to marry a master called "Black Mountain" in a few days.

Ning Caichen felt sorry and sad in his heart, but he didn't know that if it weren't for Nie Xiaoqian's concealment, he would definitely have no luck when he took the initiative to go to the monster's lair, even if Yan Chixia wanted to save it, it would definitely be too late.

But it was on that day that Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, the destined couple, also determined each other's status in their hearts.

……

"Dao Dao Dao ......"

"The Tao is the way, the extraordinary way, the heaven and the earth, the humane sword ......"

Ye Mo didn't continue to practice without leaving home today, but found a place to barbecue and drink with Yan Chixia, and when he drank it, Yan Chixia suddenly jumped up, holding a sword and singing.

The song is not good, but it is full of a wild and joyful taste, and the sword dance that follows the song is messy, but it is also quite a bit freewheeling.

And the word that came out in a rough voice made Ye Mo appreciate it even more, that is, Yan Chixia, a wild Taoist priest, understood the "Tao".

The last sentence of "I ask for my own way" is Yan Chixia's summary of her life, and it is also the highest ideal.

Ye Mo felt a little empathetic, because he was also constantly looking for his "Dao".

And at this time, his search has only seen the light of day, but it is far from the end.

Just as the two of them on the edge of the bonfire were immersed in their inner world, the ancient copper bells under the eaves of Lanruo Temple were blown by a strange wind, and Yan Chixia also sensed something instantly.
