"Mother! It's been three days and three nights for the snow to stop......

"Isn't it the same in previous years? Don't complain, you guy, how many times have you said it along the way, can't you stop for a while? Like a, chirp crooked......"

With a rough and loud voice, the voice directly overwhelmed the wind and snow.

The gate of the dilapidated ancient temple was also dilapidated, but it was barely able to shelter from the wind and snow, and now it was suddenly violently pushed open, and it was suddenly reduced to pieces.

Accompanied by a cold snap and flakes of snowflakes, three figures dressed in animal skins and felt hats walked into the dark and dilapidated temple, bringing a touch of life and a touch of noise.

"Oh, I can have a place to rest, I'm exhausted......"

A big man unceremoniously found a place without so much dust in front of the altar, sat down directly, and by the way, untied the huge bag he was carrying and put it aside.

“……”

“……”

The other two didn't answer for the time being, just looked around vigilantly at the corner in the darkness. There may be no enemies, but there is no guarantee that there are no wild beasts, and the wild beasts of the mountains love to inhabit these ruins.

– especially on a snowy day like this.

This ancient temple located on the mountain, obviously very old, the incense of the year is about to be quite prosperous, the pattern of the main hall and the side hall can barely be seen, there are still monks in the back, but most of them have collapsed.

As for some of the monks' houses that were still struggling in the wind and snow, neither of them entered to inspect them, they just hurriedly walked around the temple, and then they both sighed and amazed-

"His grandmother's! Those mountain people said that there was a former temple in the mountain where they could stay temporarily, and I thought it was a small land temple or something! ”

"That's it...... The incense in this temple must have been very prosperous back then, and that big tree should be some kind of feng shui tree, right? Tsk, I've never seen such a big tree! ”

"At least five hundred years, right?! But it's really strange, in such a remote rural place, except for people like us, we can't even find a merchant, how can there be such a big temple? ”

"Who can say this kind of thing clearly, I think it should have been a hundred years ago, don't you see that it has become like this? Those bald donkeys back then must have died early, who knows what happened before......"

And when the two of them talked and returned to the main hall in front, they found that the big man from before had already raised a vigorous bonfire on the ground in front of the altar.

The wood crackled, and the blazing flames brought light, dispelling the chill in the air, and making those who approached feel warm at once, as if they had come to life at once.

"Old Black Tiger! Why are you so fast this time? Where did the firewood come from? ”

"I don't know, it's piled up in the corner over there, maybe it was prepared by the mountain people in this mountain...... We'll use it first, and we'll add it to them tomorrow morning when we leave. ”

The big man replied angrily as he took off his boots and raised his big foot closer to the flames.

Suddenly, a strong and unpleasant pungent smell quickly spread through the air.

"Day! Wait a minute! Grass! Old Black Tiger, you guy......"

"Fuck! I really want to chop you with a knife! ”

The other two's faces changed dramatically in an instant, and they threw down the hay to cover their noses and quickly distanced themselves from them.

"Hey, hey, there's no way to do it...... Born with sweaty feet, old problems. The man known as the old black tiger was not embarrassed, his face was not red or panting, and he said as a matter of course, "No matter whether it is a hot day or a cold day, it is easy to cover a foot of stinky sweat." ”

The other two scolded themselves and refused to come easily at the temple gate.

"Okay, if you've scolded enough, come over quickly, aren't you tired after a day's journey today? I'm so tired, let's eat some dry food and go to bed...... By the way, it's the skinny man's turn to keep vigil tonight, right? ”

The old black tiger said disapprerovingly, and while putting on animal skin boots for his comfortable stinky feet, he stretched out his sinful hand and grabbed the bag next to him.

"You dare! Stop me! ”

"Take your hands away! Don't move! Let's get the dry food! ”

The other two yelled in a hurry, this guy who cheated on his father didn't know anything at all, if he really let him move everyone's dry food in his bag, then what would he and others eat?!

But the snow is heavy and the mountains are closed, and it will take at least two days to get out.

After a commotion, the three of them finally calmed down, nibbling on dry food and boiling snow water over and over again. It's a hard meal to swallow, but they're used to it.

Listening to the howling snowstorm outside, it is peaceful enough to have a place to rest and warm up in the deep night.

Walking the rivers and lakes is not so exquisite, let alone talking or anything, but at this time, they are often the most interested in talking, and they have to create a topic if they don't have a topic.

As the saying goes, three sentences are not separated from the industry, and although the three of them are not important people, they are not ordinary farmers facing the loess with their backs to the sky, or mountain people who rely on the mountains to eat, and they can only see one acre and three points of land in front of their houses.

Their vision is not high, but they are in the rivers and lakes, and they will hear some relevant information.

Of course, it is all very outdated information, and the extreme inconvenience of transportation has led to the timeliness of information transmission in this era. The so-called is not knowing that there is a Han, regardless of the Wei and Jin dynasties, it is exactly like this.

In ancient times, the transmission of non-designated news was so slow that even if the country had changed dynasties, even the emperors had changed, and some people did not know it yet, thinking that it was still the previous dynasty.

So the topics that the three of them talked about, some of the things involved, often happened three or five months ago.

If some of the rumors that the incident happened very far away, it may have been a year and a half ago...... But for them, it's a topic they've only heard about recently, and it's worth talking about.

"I heard that the only son of the king of Zhenbei died, and the murderer didn't seem to be able to find him...... The dog prince was furious, indiscriminately, saying that he wanted to wipe out the martial arts people in Beinan Province. ”

"Ridiculous! It's up to him...... I'm afraid that the good head of this dog prince will be cut off by a hero who will be cut off one night! ”

"Not necessarily, Gan is more good at the court eagle dog, the king of Zhenbei is also a prince, the palace is unfathomable, I heard that there are many heroes who touched it that night, and the heads of the people were hung at the city gate early the next morning to show the public."

I said that I would eat something and rest as soon as possible, but the more I talked, the more I became more and more interested, and the more I talked, the more energetic I became.

After a while, the wind and snow outside did not weaken, but became more and more intense, and the whistling sound was disturbing. And in the midst of such a heavy snowstorm, there was an obvious movement of human voices outside.

The three people in the temple suddenly stopped talking, and each found a sense of vigilance in each other's eyes.

How could there be so many people on such a snowy day?

"I think this is the place, this snow is so big that I almost lost my eyes, if it weren't for Zishi's carefulness, we would have missed it......" A thick middle-aged man's voice came from outside.

"Master, it's not that I'm careful, it's just that I just happened to see the shadow of this mountain gate, otherwise I didn't expect to be here...... However, it is also strange that this temple still has a mountain gate. ”

"Lanruo Temple...... Ha! It's a good name, but it's a pity that it's decayed to this point. Let's all go in and take a break, and we'll be there tomorrow morning!" ”

In the midst of the noise, more than a dozen men walked in one after another outside, all wearing uniform dart master clothes, all of them were holding swords and swords, and none of them were empty-handed.

However, the three of the old black tigers breathed a sigh of relief, but it was okay to meet the local dart game.

Although the dart game is actually equivalent to the green forest bandit sometimes, the main thing is to look at the occasion, see the interests and needs, and switch back and forth between different identities...... To put it simply, if you don't ask the dart master to bet, maybe the person who will attack the dart game will come later.

Cooperate a little, ask them to bet on the surface and let them make a profit, that is, hello, hello, hello, everyone. If they don't cooperate, they have to pass through the other party's territory, and maybe they will directly rob and kill people.

This is the way of the world, they have seen a lot, and many dart games are just a clear identity compared to those robbers, and they can just pump oil and water for granted...... If you want to pass by, leave it to buy road money, and ask them to bet on the dart is to put on a cover.

While not all darts are so dark, most do.

However, it is only for those outsiders who need to escort large quantities of goods, or important things, the three old black tigers do not think that they and others have any qualifications, so that the dart game directly shows its fangs.

To put it more bluntly, that is, their combined net worth and lives are not enough for the other party to take a second look. People finally launder their money, just to rob legally, if they are like ordinary bandits and horse bandits, regardless of robbing and killing, don't they smash their own signboards?

Next, just as the old black tiger and the three of them expected, the two sides exchanged pleasantries, and then the well water did not interfere with the river water, and they occupied a place in the main hall of the temple to prepare for the night.

After less than a quarter of an hour, the third group of people rushed to this dilapidated ancient temple again.

This time there were even fewer people, only a pale-faced young woman and an old servant, who looked as if they were going to fall at any moment—

Not only was the young woman's face pale, but she also spoke softly, and the old servant was even more dying, and if she couldn't say a few words, she would cough again and again until she couldn't stop, and some people believed him that he would die at any time.

But whether it is the three old black tigers or the dart masters of the dart game, no one has any crooked thoughts, but is still faintly afraid.

Walking the rivers and lakes, there are three kinds of people who must be careful - the elderly, women, and children...... These two people accounted for two-thirds at once. What's more, if they really seem to be as fragile as they seem, how could they get here?

In such a bad weather season, it was still late at night, and even a few big men with good skills walked together, and they felt bottomless.

This master and servant, I'm afraid they are all pretending to be pigs and eating tigers.

Everyone is not stupid, and it is estimated that the really stupid people have already died in this increasingly difficult world. Therefore, everyone is amiable on the surface, and they always show affection.

And when the three groups of people have arrived, it means that the extras are already in place.

They had no idea what the name Lanruo Temple meant......

After thinking about it again, someone decided to use the Xianxia painting style directly. After all, he doesn't know what the martial arts system of this plane is, and it's not easy to disguise it in this regard, so it's better to simply use these "legends" that these natives will also find unclear-

Take the lead in this way!
