Without thinking much about it, he turned the page of the story of "Li Yuanfeng Chapter of Lanno Temple".

"This ...... How has it changed? ”

After a quick glance at this story, Li Mo found that the ending of this story had also changed, thinking that when he first crossed into the world of Liaozhai, he just talked with Li Yuanfeng for a few words, but he didn't expect that it would also change the ending of this story, and he didn't think about anything more, Li Mo took a look.

story.

……

……

……

Dexin County, Yongshan Foot Inn.

After cleaning up the food on the table, making a pot of coarse tea, seeing that the clouds were thick outside, the sky was about to be dark, and the heavy rain did not stop, the proprietress said: "Sir, the sky is dark, and the heavy rain outside cannot be stopped for a while and a half. “

Li Yuanfeng hurriedly waved his hand: "Xiaosheng has something important to do, so he will leave and stop bothering." With that, Li Yuanfeng stood up and walked out of the inn.

The vendor on the side quickly spoke: "This scholar, I don't know where to go?" ”

Li Yuanfeng smiled in his heart, he didn't mind the strange name of the small vendor, and arched his hand: "Xiaosheng went to the capital to catch the exam this time, passing through the treasure land, and was going to rest for a few days. ”

The small vendor had an unsurprising expression, Dexin County is close to the capital headquarters, and there are always many scholars passing by every year, and there are many such things.

When it was time for lunch, the daughter-in-law of the small vendor came to deliver the meal, and when she saw her man talking to a scholar, she was a little shy and did not dare to come forward.

Seeing this, Li Yuanfeng was not a villain, and after some thanks, he took his leave, walked to the street, came to a pastry stall, and counted the copper coins: "I want five hot baked cakes, and I will take care of them." ”

"Okay, wait a minute."

The owner of the pastry stall is a thin man, with very quick hands and feet, who properly wraps the baked cakes with lotus leaves, and after receiving the copper coin, he begins to greet others.

Li Yuanfeng took out two baked cakes from them, wrapped the rest, carefully put them in the book basket, and then found a shady corner, and did not dislike it, just sit down and eat it anywhere.

In this way, in the afternoon, I wrote a few more letters and helped others to read, but I earned more than in the morning, and when it was close to evening, I had to go to the inn.

Dexin County is a big county, there are many business travelers, and it is the only way to go to the capital, there are naturally many inns, but the price is cheap, it is almost dark, so it is not easy to find a dilapidated storefront, and there are few guests eating inside, the guy saw Li Yuanfeng, and trotted all the way over.

"Guest officer, are you going to be a tip or a lodging?"

"Do you have a room?"

The guy nodded hurriedly, "Yes, you come with me, put down the account money first, and take the small one over." ”

As a result, in the past, the price was still a lot higher than the budget, so he hesitated, and the shopkeeper was an old man, with a thief in his eyes, and he understood the situation in his heart, and the customer seemed to be unable to afford to live, so he restrained his enthusiasm and only looked at it with his eyes.

In the middle of the sound, Li Yuanfeng coughed and said, "Shopkeeper, do you have a firewood room here?" May you allow me to spend the night? ”

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes: "There is a firewood room, but it is not lent to others." ”

Li Yuanfeng didn't care, he had encountered a lot of such things, so he didn't say much, and was about to leave, but was stopped by the shopkeeper: "Where are you going?" ”

"Naturally, I went to find a place to stay."

Li Yuanfeng frowned, such a person naturally has no need to be polite.

"Come on, you're looking for it, I'll show you a clear road, go out of the county and walk a few miles to the south of the mountain, which is the county entrance, you should pass by when you come, there is a broken temple on the mountain, although it is broken, but it can also block the wind and rain, if you don't mind, go there."

The shopkeeper smiled.

"Oh? But seriously. ”

"Naturally, you will know when you go to see it."

Li Yuanfeng thanked him, turned around and left, the young man wanted to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but say: "Shopkeeper, you are trying to harm that scholar, no one knows, the broken temple on Yongshan is a well-known evil door, and a few people have died there, I'm afraid that there are some powerful monsters, and this scholar is afraid that he will not be killed." ”

The shopkeeper's face changed: "What's the matter, he's your relative?" Or your ancestors? Are you going to pay for his house? If you don't want to do it, get out of here, how can there be so much nonsense. ”

……

……

Night fell quickly.

The streets of Dexin County were lively again, Yi Xian packed up his things, and followed a few "wine and meat buddies" to buy half a catty of beef for dinner at the proprietress at the foot of Yongshan Mountain, and then played three or two drinks in the wine shop, and went home by moonlight.

Ordinary people eat dinner early, the lamp oil is expensive and can't withstand too much delay, except for the New Year's holiday, or there are important things to do, most of them will choose to finish dinner before the sun sets, and on such a summer day, the streets outside are cool, and the alleys are soon full of cool county people.

During the day, they are busy making a living, and only at night can the county residents get together and talk about nine things for eight days, old men, you smoke dry tobacco one by one, and you will make a pot of coarse tea when you moisturize it, but most of them are old men who do this, and young people don't have that leisure and elegance, but they talk about which little daughter-in-law is a sign of birth.

As for the old ladies talking in groups, there are a lot of words, some are homely, some are laughing in private, and there are laughter and scolding from time to time.

These have nothing to do with Yi Xian, the adults enjoy the coolness, and he doesn't play with other young men of the same age of fifteen or sixteen, sitting alone by the inn window and looking at the moon coming out of the south, but thinking about the events of that day in his heart, Li Mo's majestic scene, chanting a few words that he didn't understand well, and a move to stop Nangong Lin, since he can remember, gave him a great shock.

"You kid, what are you thinking about all night?"

It turned out that it was Uncle Zhang of Nangong Mansion who pushed the door in, since the incident with Nangong Lin last time, he and Yi Xian have become acquainted with each other, and they have been ventilating with each other for three days, of course, Li Moyi is the middleman who connects them.

It's not early, everyone is ready to go back to bed, tomorrow has to get up early to work, if you don't get enough sleep, you can't do anything good, but you will be hungry. This is especially true for civilian homes.

"You give people funeral work, I don't think there is much business these days, or, another way to make money?"

Yi Xian turned his head, "Uncle Zhang, where did you say Brother Li went?" Why did he disappear in a blink of an eye, I haven't looked at people for a few days, could it be that Brother Li is really an immortal ...... earth."

Uncle Zhang put down the things in his hand, approached him, touched Yi Xian's forehead, and said, "I didn't see a fever and a cold, what kind of illness did you kid have, you can believe the immortals?" It's just a joke in the play. ”

After that, Uncle Zhang chuckled, and regardless of Yi Xian's reaction, he went out of the house and shouted: "Go to bed early, if you are okay tomorrow, go to the countryside for me to collect some timber and come back, three dollars of silver a day." ”

Choked, Yi Xian responded angrily, looked at the gradually deserted alley, closed the window, and fell asleep on the couch.

Tossing and turning, finally falling asleep, dazed, heard the knock on the door, at first disagreed, thinking that he had heard it wrong, but the knock kept coming, causing people to be annoyed, and listening carefully was actually their own door.

Looking at the moonlight sprinkled on the ground, who will visit in the middle of the night on this moon?

After waiting for a while, the knocking on the door kept coming, there was really no way, Yi Xian got dressed and got out of bed, came to the door, listened to the knock outside the door, and asked impatiently: "Who?" ”

Although there was a question, but there was no answer, but the knock on the door stopped, as if he saw that Yi Xian did not open the door, and knocked a few times, which made Yi Xian a little angry.

Thinking about it, Yi Xian opened the door, and when he looked at it, it was actually a man in blue and white clothes, dressed as a scholar, and he looked very handsome in the moonlight. ”

Lee Eun-gong?

Yi Xian was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Boy Yi Xian, I don't know any Li Engong, I'm afraid that the scholar didn't recognize the wrong person?" ”

The man bowed again: "I haven't confessed my mistake, a few days ago, little brother, you were able to subdue demons in Nangong Mansion?" ”

Yi Fan hesitated slightly and nodded: "Yes, I did do something in Nangong Mansion a few days ago, how do you know?" ”

As he spoke, seeing that Yi Fan was puzzled, he said again: "Little brother, do you remember the person who subdued the demon with you?" ”

"Naturally, I remember that Brother Li is supernatural, and he is the one who ended the matter."

"That's right, that's the little demon's Li Engong."

The man explained: "The little demon was originally a hundred-year-old fox demon on Yongshan, and that day he passed by the foot of the mountain, and was hung by the old man with a trap, and because at noon, the sun was really hot, and he could not reveal the true law. ”

Yi Xian couldn't get back to his senses, took two steps back, remembered the scene he accidentally saw on the mountainside of Yongshan that day, came back to his senses, and finally nodded, "I see, then why did you come to me this time?" ”

"I repay my kindness."

"Since Li Engong evaporated from the world that day, the little demon has never been able to see it again, and the kindness should be repaid, since Li Engong is gone, and the little brother is familiar with Li Engong, so he will help the little brother as a favor."

Yi Xian didn't know how to answer, this thing was really beyond his cognition, it was incredible, and no one would believe it for a while.

The man looked up at Haoyue, "Since the little brother still doesn't believe it completely, you can go back and think about it, if there is really a place where the little demon can help, tell him bluntly, and the little demon will definitely help." It's not early today, so I won't disturb your little brother, and I'll leave you. ”

After that, he disappeared with a turn, which made Yi Xian's heart startled and shocked suddenly.

……

Day 2.

The sound of the rooster crowed, and Yi Xian opened his eyes to see that he was sleeping on the couch, and there was already morning light outside.

looked out the window and remembered what happened last night, "No one has solved the matter of Chen Ao's family yet, if that demon was really willing to help me last night, wouldn't it be able to be majestic and get money?" Yi Xian muttered to himself.

……

Half a month has passed, and the news that there is a gold mine in Yongshan has also faded, and few people will go to Yongshan to dig gold again. Every household went about their usual work.

The Nangong family in Dexin County is now falling apart, leaving only a few old servants and Steward Zhang, because Uncle Zhang and Yi Xian knew each other, they specially gave the Nangong Mansion firewood to Yi Xian.

The funeral business was bleak, and Yi Xian had to go to the wilderness hillside to chop wood for food money, just filling his belly.

On this day, Yi Xian went to the barren slope alone, worked hard to cut the wood all morning, asked someone to pull it back with a donkey, piled it at the door of the firewood room of Nangong Mansion, and washed his face with the cool well water.

As soon as I rested, I listened to Uncle Zhang's instructions: "Xiao Yi, help me go to the third aunt's house next door to borrow a spoonful of salt and come back, and say that I will pay her back tomorrow." ”

The third aunt is not Uncle Zhang's second aunt, but everyone in the neighborhood calls it that, and it is called habitual.

Salt is a material controlled by the prefecture, and each household buys a number, not as much as an individual wants to buy, so it is impossible to borrow salt unless the relationship is good.

But neighbors, there is always a shortage, it is very common for each other to borrow from each other, Yi Xian just explained the intention, and the third aunt didn't say much, so she took a small porcelain bowl and poured a spoonful of salt.

Back at the inn, dinner was as usual, nothing more than steamed buns with pickles, a few grains of salty wild vegetables, and a little oil star.

At night, everyone was deeply sleepy, there was silence, and a knock on the door was heard dimly, Yi Xian woke up suddenly, who could it be in such a night?

Suddenly, Yi Xian remembered the incident of last night, and his heart was shocked.

After waiting for a while, he looked at the moonlight sprinkled on the ground, it was when the moon was bright, Yi Xian hesitated for a while, but he still came to the door with his clothes on, and gritted his teeth to open the door.

I saw that the man was standing upright in front of the door last night, and when he saw Yi Xian, he spoke: "Little brother, have you thought about it, what can you let the little demon help?" ”

Yi Xian was speechless, and was stunned in place, and it took a while to react: "You, you are an immortal?" ”

The man chuckled: "Little brother said that he laughed, how can the little demon be worthy of the title of immortal." ”

"And you're a youkai?"

"Well, it's not a monster, but if it's called a mortal, a little demon is also a monster, but it has never harmed anyone, let alone done evil."

Yi Xian then asked, "Are there really immortals in the world?" ”

"Whether there are immortals or not, the little demon doesn't know, but there are cultivators in the world, who don't often appear saints, and don't cherish mortal dust, and have the magic power of the sky, it's not something that the little demon can guess."

The little demon raised his eyes and looked at Yi Xian: "Little brother is afraid of the little demon?" ”

Yi Xian looked at him, and when he asked him like this, he suddenly became nervous again, "Are you going to harm me?" ”

"Li Engong saved me from fire and water, saved the life of the little demon from the hands of the old man, little brother, you know Li Engong again, it's too late to borrow someone to repay the favor, how can it harm you."

Yi Xian smiled: "Since you won't harm me, then I naturally won't be afraid of you." ”

"Little brother, have you figured it out, what do you want the little demon to do for you?" The man went straight to the point.

"Naturally, there is something to ask for, but before you do anything, can you teach me the cultivation method?" There seemed to be a glimmer of hope in Yi Xian's eyes, and he had already longed for the technique.

"What the little demon cultivates is just a simple method of breathing and breathing, but it takes a lot of time, and if he enters the Dao Gate, if he is an ordinary person who cultivates, it will take less than a hundred years of effort, and at most he will strengthen his body."

Hearing this, Yi Xian was slightly disappointed, but he was also prepared in his heart, and waved his hand: "I just yearn for the method of immortals, so I asked." ”

As he spoke, he was slightly unwilling: "I don't know the method of swallowing and exhaling qi that you cultivate, I may cultivate?" ”

"Yes, these are just ordinary breathing methods. It is generally the same as the absorption technique of ordinary martial arts. As he spoke, the man taught him simply, and Yi Xian realized.

After a while, "I have written down this method, and I will go to the Chen Mansion tomorrow night to do something, can you help each other in secret?" ”

"Naturally." With that, the man disappeared immediately.
