The sun is getting higher and higher, and Firefly and Snow Girl wake up.

Chen Beibei took them on a journey to find Ning Caichen.

"Childe, go all the way......"

"Girl, take care."

Out of Lanruo Temple, Chen Beibei went all the way south, and encountered a teahouse on the way, just in time to go in and rest.

So he walked in with the Snow Maiden and Firefly.

It's just a very ordinary teahouse, a house made of trees, covered with some thatch.

Walking into the teahouse, a few people were drinking tea and chatting.

Such a place is basically a place where some merchants and porters who travel far away rest.

Drink a bowl of tea and talk about some strange things you encounter on the road.

As soon as Chen Beibei and the others stepped into the teahouse, Xiao Er greeted them warmly.

After Chen Beibei asked for a few bowls of tea, they picked a clean seat and sat down.

At the next table sat a few porters, their poles diagonally on their benches.

"Excuse me, have you ever heard of a scholar named Ning Caichen?"

Chen Beibei asked them.

"No ......"

The porters replied very simply, and it was clear that it was not easy to find someone by the name of a person.

Chen Beibei had no choice but to continue drinking tea.

But soon, those people talked about things worthy of Chen Beibei's attention.

"I tell you, don't go to Lanruo Temple to rest at night......

An older porter said.

"Why?"

"In Lanruo Temple, many people have died, and there are female ghosts who drink human blood."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, last year, a lot of people died in Lanruo Temple. The only scholar who survived, and he fell for the evil ......"

"Evil?"

"Yes, after I went home, I yelled every day to go to Lanruo Temple to find a woman. However, everyone knows that Lanruo Temple is a deserted temple, and there are no women in it at all......"

"And then?"

"Later, the scholar was locked up in the study......"

When the elder man said these words, his voice was so low that he had to listen carefully.

As soon as he stopped, the people in the teahouse had not recovered from it, and the teahouse fell into a silent silence.

"Excuse me, does the master know where that scholar is?"

Chen Beibei's voice broke the silence.

"You know, half an hour to the west, there is a ferry, where you can take a boat ten miles south to the scholar's hometown. Many people know about him, and if you inquire there, you will be able to find that scholar. ”

"Well, thank you, master."

Knowing where Ning Caichen's home was, Chen Beibei hurried on the road.

The ferry port of this era gives people the feeling of being a little desolate.

Only a small boat was leaning alone on the riverbank, and a boatman was napping on his arm.

Chen Beibei woke up the boatman, and then got on the boat, and the penny in the boatman's hand was gently propped up, and the boat moved lightly.

On both sides of the river, there is a bleak autumn scene, and the red maple leaves stand out among the trees, dominating the attention of tourists.

"Master, are we going to find the person in the painting?"

Firefly looked at Chen Beibei and asked him.

"yes, yes."

"What happens when you find it?"

"Let him come to Lanruo Temple to meet the woman......"

"Oh......"

The flowers sway gently in the wind, the boat moves slowly, and the sun slowly sets in the west.

Chen Beibei and the others chatted, looking at the scenery on both sides of the riverbank, and before they knew it, they had arrived at Ning Caichen's hometown.

"Guest, it's ......"

"Well, thank you."

Chen Beibei got off the boat, and at dusk, the river was dyed red with the sunset.

The boatman propped up the boat and left alone in the direction from which he came.

The ancient town, the stone bridge, the pedestrians in twos and threes, the strong local atmosphere.

"Master, such a place seems to be very comfortable."

"Well, the sun rises and the sun sets. The pace of life is slow and there is no great stress of a modern city......"

"Master, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Nothing ......"

Chen Beibei took Firefly's hand, and the Snow Girl quietly followed them.

I found a casual pedestrian and asked Ning Caichen's home.

It's a rich and noble family.

Two red lanterns hung at the door, and in the middle was a small bronze mirror.

The role of the bronze mirror is probably to ward off evil spirits.

Vermilion solid wood gate with two huge pull rings.

The one who opened the door was a middle-aged woman, dignified, and looked like a reasonable person.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

The woman asked Chen Beibei.

"Ning Caichen."

The woman's eyes, which were originally casual and fluttering, suddenly fell on Chen Beibei's body.

"Do you have anything to do with him?"

"We are book friends who are studying together, and I heard that something has happened to him recently, so I wanted to visit him."

"Oh, please come in."

The woman turned sideways and let Chen Beibei and them enter the door.

Inside is a large yard with some flowers and plants, but by autumn most of them have withered.

It looks a little depressed, desolate.

It probably has something to do with the fact that something happened to the family and didn't care about those flowers and plants.

"He's studying over there, I'll take you there."

After the woman finished speaking, she walked in front of Chen Beibei and them.

After walking through a bluestone path and a corridor, you will arrive at the study.

"Caichen, someone has come to see you......"

A thin man came out of the study, a little different from the man in the painting.

There is no life, there is no faint smile, and the body is much thinner than the person in the painting......

"Ning Caichen, do you still remember me?"

Chen Beibei looked at Ning Caichen and said to him.

Ning Caichen looked at Chen Beibei with some doubts in his eyes......

"My name is ...... Whisper...... Little ......"

Ning Caichen's body trembled slightly, and his eyes tightened.

Kaede ......

Chen Beibei reminded Ning Caichen with his eyes.

Ning Caichen should have understood, so he hurriedly said, "Xiao ...... Maple...... Come on, please. ”

Chen Beibei and the others walked in, and the woman was about to leave with some doubts.

"Mother, this is my book friend, please prepare some meals......"

The woman who turned around had a light smile on her face.

"Son, I finally want to take the initiative to eat......"

In the study, the smell of books in the room is still relatively comfortable.

Ning Caichen's eyes lit up, obviously excited.

After a year, I finally heard the woman's name again.

"Brother Ling, do you know Nie Xiaoqian?"

Ning Caichen asked.

Although Chen Beibei was younger than him, in order to show respect, he still called Brother Ling.

"Well, I came to you for her."

"Is she okay now?"

"She's fine, but it's yours...... Something is not in good health......"

Ning Caichen had a happy smile on his face.

She's fine, he's carefree......

Chen Beibei didn't guess wrong, Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen are still in love.
