Baoying City.

The scale is not large, the population is not large, the walls are not high, and it is not too thick, it is an ordinary town, and no one even knows which dynasty and which generation it originated from, and even the local county records are impossible to verify.

But such a city, after countless wars, has never been damaged in the slightest. Whether it was the war in which Emperor Amaterasu dominated the world, or in the subsequent conquests between various countries, not even a single city gate brick was broken.

It is the incomparably legendary brother of the empress Lingxin, it is said that three swords can break a city, very brave and fierce, in the war that led the Dongling soldiers to attack the Xixi Desert, it was a series of capture of dozens of cities in the Western Desert, but this Baoying City, in that war, did not receive the slightest damage.

So some people began to say that this Baoying city is protected by the gods and secretly, and the disasters of every war can be avoided. Coco searched and searched, and found a dilapidated temple on a small dirt hill dozens of miles west of the city.

The temple is not only dilapidated, but also very small, so small that there are only two small monks and an old monk, and there is not even a serious name, because it is on the earth mountain in the west of Baoying City, so it is casually called Xishan Temple.

But in addition to this Xishan Temple, this Baoying City inside and outside the city, within a radius of 100 miles, there is no temple and palace. Therefore, people are more and more convinced that this Baoying City is protected from the baptism of war several times because of the protection of the gods in this small Xishan Temple.

As a result, Xishan Temple, which was originally dilapidated and declined, and did not even have a single incense, suddenly flourished!

For a time, there was an endless stream of incense, worshipping Buddha, kowtowing, and making wishes, and in less than three days, the soles of countless people's shoes stepped out of a path to the top of the mountain!

But on the fourth day, this Xishan Temple, which had just been known and had just begun to have incense, disappeared out of thin air!

As if it had never appeared, people walked along the newly opened path and came to the end to find that there were only five or six ancient acacia trees standing there that should have been the location of Xishan Temple!

There is no pattern in the distribution of those locust trees, but each one is at least more than a hundred years old, and there is no sign of transplanting, not even a trace of Saturn that has been turned out!

People did not give up and circled around those ancient acacia trees seven or eight times, but they could not find any traces of the existence of the Xishan Temple, so they expanded the scope to the entire Xishan.

But the scope of the entire West Mountain is not very large, it is just an ordinary small dirt mountain, and there is not even a slightly steep and steep place, let alone a hidden temple.

On the second day, there were still people who did not give up and continued to search for the mountain, and on the third, fourth, and sixth days......

After many fruitless searches, people began to gradually forget about this dilapidated temple that may have protected this treasure city countless times.

Therefore, no one knows when the five or six ancient acacia trees in the original location of the temple disappeared again, and when the dilapidated and declining Xishan Temple, and the three monks in the temple, one old and two young, appeared again.

In fact, not only the people outside don't know, but even the two little monks in the monastery don't know.

They only knew that their monastery, which had always been unattended, suddenly had many more good men and women, and after three days of incense, it suddenly became deserted.

Other than that, the small monastery where they were located had not changed at all, as if it were a dream for some good men and women to suddenly appear.

Now their dreams are awake, the green bricks in the courtyard are still the same, the Buddhist hall is still the same, and their daily homework is still the same.

If there is a change, it should be their master, that is, the old monk in this monastery. It was only three or four days, but their master seemed to have suddenly aged after thirty or forty years!

The two little monks were naturally very worried, but the old monk just said lightly: "The limit for being a teacher has arrived......

He spoke in a very flat tone, as if he was not talking about his death, but asking about the homework of the two little monks on a daily basis, or saying "The weather is so nice today", which was very ordinary.

The two little monks almost cried, but the old monk waved his hand to stop them: "You two, for many years with me, haven't you seen through life, old age, sickness and death?"

When he said this, his tone was a little heavy, not necessarily so harsh, but it was much harsher than usual, and the two little monks were suddenly so frightened that they didn't dare to cry anymore, only with tears in their eyes, they looked at him baba.

The old monk took a deep breath, with a little nostalgia and reluctance, and said again after a while, carrying the two little monks on his back: "The two of us, when we are sweeping the fallen leaves these days, if we see someone suddenly appearing, we will carry it to the meditation room in the west first." ”

The two little monks remembered very clearly, and the tone of what the old monk said was also very affirmative, that is, "suddenly appeared" and "carried to the meditation room to the west".

And the silver-haired man did appear suddenly, and he was indeed carried by the two little monks to the west meditation room, because although the man's heart beat and breathed normally, and he could not speak or move, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

The two little monks did not dare to slack off, so they naturally went to the old monk's orders and carried the person to the meditation room in the west, and then went to return to the old monk.

However, when the two of them met the old monk, they found that their master was even older!

The old monk only nodded lightly about the return of the two little monks, and did not explain his "uncertain prophet", nor did he love the silver-haired man who was carried to the west meditation room, but continued to instruct the two little monks: "If anyone comes again, you will take her to the meditation room on the west side and meet the person before......"

This time it was about "bring", and the two little monks really brought people over.

Because the person who suddenly appeared this time was a sober and very beautiful woman, and the silver-haired man who suddenly appeared before, only half an hour apart, suddenly appeared in the same place.

She is a very beautiful woman, and the word "beautiful" cannot be used to describe her. Although she looks only seventeen or eighteen years old on the outside, she should be the age of innocence and coquettishness, but her eyes are like deep pools, revealing a depth that does not belong to this age.

Therefore, the two little monks can only say that this is a woman, and cannot be named the word "girl".

What made the two little monks even more puzzled and surprised was that this beautiful woman actually gave them an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if they had seen this woman somewhere.

And this woman seems to have an impression of them, but she is not very profound. She was the same as the previous initiation man, she suddenly appeared under the only ancient acacia tree in the courtyard, and when she appeared, she was eagerly calling something, as if it was a person's name, but the voice seemed to be cut off by time and space, and it was incomplete, so that the two little monks didn't hear clearly which two words she was calling.

After the two little monks glanced at each other, they mustered up the courage to take two steps forward, and spoke at the same time: "Female donor, the person you are looking for is there." ”

As he spoke, one of the little monks pointed to the meditation room in the west and said, "That man, he appeared half an hour earlier than you." ”

The woman seemed to have come back to her senses a little, the nervous and eager look on her face eased a little, and after looking around, her eyes finally fell on the two little monks.

She was slightly stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Half an hour earlier than me?"

It was the trace of doubt when she was slightly stunned that made the two little monks suspect that they and this woman, I don't know when and where, should have met, but they didn't have a deep impression of each other.

But then again, this woman was so beautiful that it was hard to describe her in any flowery words, and she must have been able to attract attention everywhere, and it was difficult to ignore it, so why did they not have the slightest impression?

The two little monks were a little puzzled, but because of the woman's urging and the old monk's previous instructions, they also gathered the doubts in their hearts and took the woman to the meditation room in the west.

It is said to be a meditation room, but in fact it is just a simple room, barely able to shelter from the wind and rain.

Even, because of the passage of time, the four walls of the house were a little blackened, and even the light entered it and became dim.

Fortunately, the two little monks were diligent, and although no one had ever lived in this meditation room, they would always come to sprinkle and sweep every once in a while. So, the moment I opened the door, there was no dust flying.

In the dimly lit room, the silver-haired man in white was still lying quietly, as if his body was shrouded in a faint halo, so that people could see his location at a glance.

It's just that after the two little monks carried him here, and then brought the beautiful woman behind him, for such a long time, he still showed no signs of waking up, as if he would always sleep like this.

The woman behind the two little monks seemed to froze for a moment, and then suddenly squeezed in between the two and rushed straight in front of the silver-haired man.

The look on the woman's face, I couldn't tell whether it was an accident or a surprise, and even a little dazed and confused, after looking the sleeping silver-haired man up and down, she plucked a hairpin from her head that didn't look like a hairpin, and a long needle didn't look like a long needle.

The thing was about the length of a woman's palm, and it should be about the same length as an ordinary hairpin, but it was slightly thicker in the middle, but the two ends were extremely pointed, like long needles, and the whole body was covered with a layer of colorful light, and the slender fingers of the woman against the background were even fairer.

The two little monks didn't know what the woman was going to do, so they stared at it with wide eyes, but suddenly found that on the long needle on the woman's fingertips, the layer of colorful light became more and more intense, and finally it was enveloped together with the silver-haired man in white.

The two little monks standing at the door only felt as if a gust of wind was blowing in their faces, and they actually blew the two doors together!

The two of them were almost touched by the suddenly closed door, and subconsciously reached out to push it, only to find that the original rotten and old wooden door was as solid as a rock at the moment!

They pushed a few more times to no avail, so they just gave up, turned around and went to the meditation room where the old monk was to report the situation.

The old monk was even older, crumbling like a broken candle in the wind, as if it could be extinguished at any moment. After listening to the narration of the two little monks, he was silent for a long time before he said to the two little monks: "Go and bring her, please come over." ”
