Then I quickly got up, and there was a sharp pain in my palm. I think I broke my palm when I just fell.

But this was not the time to care, and I hurried back to the front. Hu San's voice behind him was getting smaller and smaller, and he couldn't hear it until the last point.

That's when I slowed myself down, and then I looked around.

At this time, there were towering trees everywhere, and there was almost no light in this place, and everything around was in darkness.

Just when I was wondering where I was going, I suddenly saw a cave not far away.

I thought that since I couldn't go now, I might as well go to that cave for the night and wait until dawn tomorrow to figure out what to do.

With that in mind, I walked towards the cave.

Before I got to the entrance of the cave, I poked my head out and listened inside, and when I was sure there was no sound inside, I tiptoed inside.

The light inside the cave was even darker than outside, and it could almost be described as a finger that could not be seen. When I walked in, I didn't go inside.

Instead, I found a fairly flat place near the entrance of the cave and lay down, and soon after that I fell asleep in a daze.

Not long after I fell asleep, I seemed to hear a slight sound of footsteps in the haze. I came to my senses all of a sudden, thinking that it couldn't be Hu San and them chasing after me.

I hurriedly opened my eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a black silhouette in the darkness walking towards me step by step.

"Plop ......"

At this point, I could clearly hear my heartbeat, and the black silhouette was approaching me step by step.

"Ah......h

Just as he was about to get close to me, he yelled and turned and ran. But I forgot that there was a stone wall behind me, and just as I turned to run, I hit the stone wall directly.

"Bang ......"

After just listening to a muffled sound, I felt like I had stars in my eyes. Then his eyes went black and he didn't know anything.

It was a long time before I regained consciousness. After that, I felt a pain in my head, and I quickly touched my head with my hand.

Then I found a piece of cloth wrapped around my head, and I realized that I didn't know when my head had been bandaged.

"You're awake." An old voice came.

I looked in the direction of the sound, and then I saw a fire not far away, and next to it sat a bald head with his back to me. He was wearing a shabby monk's robe and a string of Buddhist beads around his neck, which should be a monk.

"You saved me?" I looked at the monk and asked, looking around as I spoke, and I realized that I was still in the cave.

"Hehe, I heard someone coming in, and I was going to see who it was. I didn't expect that as soon as I walked up to you, you yelled and then turned around and hit the wall, I have to say that you are still quite ruthless to yourself. The monk said without looking back.

When I heard him say that, I realized that it was him who had been the shadow before. I thought you thought I was willing to hit the wall, but I wasn't scared by you.

"That...... Thank you for saving me. I said, looking at his back.

"There is no need to thank you, you and I can meet in this vast forest, and it is also the fate of you and me."

After hearing the monk say this, I felt inexplicable. I thanked him, isn't it a matter of common sense, how can I still have some fate.

When the monk saw that I was not talking, he said, "Come and sit down for a while." ”

With that, he gestured to a clearing beside him.

I glanced at him and thought that since he had saved me, there must have been no ill intent, and I got up and walked towards the fire.

I walked over to the fire and did it. Then I looked up at the monk, but I was startled by the sight, and my body trembled violently, and then I moved my body back again.

I saw that the monk's left eye was completely sunken, and the eyeballs inside had long since disappeared, and the eyelids were completely wrinkled together. And his face was already full of wrinkles, and the beard of his chin, temples, and upper lip was white and white, especially the beard of his chin, which had reached the position of his chest at this time.

"You...... You, you, a human being, a ghost. I asked as I looked at the monk tremblingly.

"Haha, don't be afraid, little donor. Since you can't tell if I'm a human or a ghost, why don't you come to me and find out? The monk looked at me and said.

I was emboldened, and slowly approached his side. When I came to him, he sat still, not moving.

I slowly stretched out the index finger of my right hand at the monk, and then poked it towards the monk's arm. A moment later, I touched the monk's arm.

"You're alive." I watched as the monk blurted out.

"Hehe, when did the poor monk say that I am not a living person?" The monk looked at me and asked.

I thought about it too, and I thought about it before. But his left eye is so scary that I can't help but think that he is a ghost.

Then I sat down by the fire and looked into the monk's left eye from time to time.

"Dare to ask the little donor, who is the surname." The monk spoke suddenly.

"My name is Wang Chuyan, you can just call me Chu Yan. By the way, I don't know your name yet. I looked at the monk and asked.

"Hehe, because of my left eye, everyone calls me a ghost-eyed monk, and as for my real name, I have long forgotten it." The Devil-Eyed Monk said with a smile.

I smiled and said, "Haha...... You're so powerful that you can forget your name. ”

But when I said this, I suddenly thought of myself. I wasn't like this before, if it weren't for my master, maybe I would still be called a fool by others.

"It seems that the little donor has something on his mind, I don't know if you can talk to me."

I glanced at the Ghost-Eyed Monk, and then said, "It's nothing to tell you, I used to be the same as you, and I didn't have a name. When I was abandoned by my parents, I forgot my name. Then I met my master, and I got my own name. ”

"Hehe, it seems that you and I are really destined, but it is better for you and me to be friends. Even if you make a good friend for the new year, how about it? The Ghost-Eyed Monk looked at me and said.

I couldn't believe it, and then I asked, "No, I'm just a little kid." You're that old, would you make friends with a child? ”
