The mountains and forests are luxuriant, and although the winter solstice has arrived, the leaves have fallen and dried up, but they still can't stop the remnant sun from setting in the west to shine in the forest.

But the winter is short, Hong Yi walked into the mountain forest, while walking towards the top of the mountain, while looking for Chen Peng, before he reached a half-mile distance, the sun gradually set in the west, and the only remaining remnant sun, the afterglow was dim.

"It looks like by the time I get to the top, it's going to be completely dark."

At this time, although the mountains and forests are not so far out of sight, they are a little dim.

Hong Yi looked at the sky above his head, in order to prevent him from staying in the forest at night, when he was hurrying to the top of the mountain, about halfway through the mountain road, he saw Chen Peng meditating cross-legged on a boulder in the middle of the road.

"I thought that Brother Chen wanted me to be like the son of that old man, and I was destined to see him."

After Hong Yi saw Chen Peng, he took a few steps forward and tightened the book frame behind him, seemingly unconcerned.

But secretly, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he was relaxed.

After all, the purpose of Hong Yi's party this time to break the hope of the Hou Mansion basically fell on the formation that Chen Peng would arrange for him in the future.

Therefore, he is now afraid that Chen Peng will leave him without saying goodbye.

In that way, he is really just a reader, and he can no longer make any waves.

"Brother Chen has not left today, and it seems that he is really ready to help me. If I achieve great success in the future, I will be rewarded for this kindness in the future! ”

Hong Yi thought about it, and after thinking a little about the future, he was about to ask Chen Peng where he was going to settle tonight, and more importantly, where to arrange the formation for him, but he saw Chen Peng on the boulder with a carefree face, as if he was not worried at all that there was no place to stay when it was dark.

"Over this mountain, at the foot of the mountain on the other side, there is a ruined temple, where the two of us can rest for a few days." If he did not know the prophet, Chen Peng got up and pointed to a place behind this mountain, and his words were very affirmative.

Just because, Hong Yi in the original book went up the mountain to pay tribute to his biological mother, so he repaired in this temple at night, lit lamps to read, and met fox fairies late at night.

"Everything is under Brother Chen's orders."

But after Hong Yi heard it, he bowed his hand and walked with Chen Peng towards the foot of the mountain two miles away, but he looked very convinced, and there was no refutation of what Chen Peng said, and no one asked Chen Peng how he knew.

And there is some envy and expectation in his demeanor.

"Brother Chen's cultivation is unfathomable, when he was meditating before, he should have been like a ghost and a fairy traveling around the world, observing the nearby boundaries and discovering that there is a temple behind the mountain!"

Hong Yi was excited, excited because he might be so powerful in the future.

Needless to say, this is because he regarded Chen Peng's unpredictable prophets as ghosts and immortals.

But no matter what.

As the sun gradually set, Hong Yi followed Chen Peng's figure closely, bypassed the mountain peak in a tired rush all the way, and came to the foot of a mountain in the mountains.

"Sure enough."

Descending the hillside, Hong Yi was sweating profusely and panting, and after passing a few tall trees, a clearing suddenly appeared in front of him.

It's just that weeds are overgrown here, about half a foot long, and some of them look desolate, not like they are inhabited, and they are often cleaned.

But he reflected the dim sunset, and when he looked into it, there was an old and dilapidated temple in front of him, as if he was preparing for them to spend the night.

"Brother Chen is really a man among the immortals, and he can clearly detect the scene two miles away." Such a scene, combined with Chen Peng's previous words, also made Hong Yi affirm the thoughts in his heart.

In the same way, it also deepened the idea of letting him cultivate the Dharma.

"It's quiet, no one is disturbing. And there are still a few months before the first imperial examination, and I can study while practicing Taoism and martial arts. Strive to have a certain realm of cultivation and self-preservation after the imperial examination. There is no need to climb the hill like this, they are all so tired that their bodies are like flesh and blood peeled off, and they are sore. ”

Hong Yi thought in his heart, and he never thought of using Chen Peng's hand to get rid of Hong Xuanji and the others and get back what he wanted.

In his words, it is your own business, and only by doing it yourself can you have a clear mind and no regrets for life.

"If you can't do anything, you can't do it. Even if someone helps, it is a drowning boat. Brother Chen is gone, and I still have to fall to the bottom of the river. ”

Hong Yi is clear-minded.

When his thoughts fell, he did not delay the hour, and prepared to clean a place to stay in the temple.

"I can do these little things myself." Although he was a little tired, when he looked at the dusty temple, he still shook his head after seeing Chen Peng in front of him wanting to use the Dao method.

"Brother Chen has helped me a lot, how can I bother Brother Chen to make a move for such a trivial matter? Doesn't it seem that I am as easy as a person of grass and trees, useless? ”

Hong Yi's face was sincere, and it seemed that he wanted to do something for Chen Peng, such as cleaning up his shelter.

Although these things are just a matter of thought and magic for Chen Peng.

But for Hong Yi, I am afraid that he will drag his tired body and work for half an hour.

"Although Hong Yi does not have a high status in the mansion, he has not done these subordinate things. Not to mention that he was the son of a general in his previous life, and he was even more of a daughter. Chen Peng's thought flashed, and when he saw Hong Yi insisting, he smiled and nodded.

Then, with a brush, Chen Peng's figure flashed, and he left the temple and went to the mountains to find some materials and arrange the formation.

In this way, after Hong Yi cleans the temple, maybe Chen Peng can also arrange the Five Elements Formation.

It can be said that it is a race against time, and there is no delay.

"In this world, my biological father is ruthless, my family is full of murderous machines, and there is nowhere to hide in the world, and I may spend my life in a desperate situation. However, I didn't expect that in the end, after the enemy from my previous life found me, he helped me."

When Hong Yi saw Chen Peng leaving, he sighed in his heart, took advantage of the fact that it was still dark, took off the book frame behind him, found a broom in the broken temple, cleared the cobwebs in the house, cleaned the sand and gravel on the ground, and left a place to stay.

Suddenly, the sound of rustling stone and sand sweeping echoed in the silent mountain forest.

It can be said to be simple, but after about an hour, after the sky was already getting dark, Hong Yi straightened up and wiped a handful of winter sweat.

"Whew—"

Then, when he was done, he patted his dusty clothes, found some hay from the outside and spread them on the ground, and took out a few books and a candle from the book frame, and placed them on the red-lacquered table, which had not yet rotted.

"The place where I settled has been cleaned, and I don't know when Brother Chen will come back."

Hong Yi glanced around, and when he saw that the temple had been cleaned, he found a big stone and sat down in front of the table.

Afterwards.

When he saw that it was not yet dark, the candles on the table had not been lit.

"If you can save, you save"

Hong Yi smiled, reflecting the somewhat dim sunset, and while waiting for Chen Peng, he picked up the book and read it again.

"The Tao begins with love, and love is born from sex. The beginning is close to love, and the end is close to righteousness"

But as he read and read, he found that the smell of decay in the air had disappeared, and suddenly the smell of earth rushed to his face.

At the same time, when he looked at the book, he felt that he could see ten lines at a glance, and his heart was as clear as peace, and the words he read were like imprints, deeply imprinted in his mind.

"This is the formation? A general formation like the Hou Mansion? It's Brother Chen who is back! ”

He raised his head, put down the book in his hand, and looked out of the temple, as he expected, Chen Peng was slowly coming.

It's just that his return this time is also to say goodbye to Hong Yi.

"Tianxingjian, a gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement. The terrain is good, and the gentleman carries things with virtue. ”

Chen Peng walked into the temple and looked at Hong Yi, who was puzzled, and said: "Hong Yi, you follow the will of heaven and use your own way to break through the persecution and prove the way you want."

Everything that should be laid has been laid down.

And Hong Yi's character has gradually been corrected, just like the original book, and his heart is more resolute, and the starting point is that his influence is also stronger.

In this way, if Chen Peng stays here any longer, it will not play a role, but it will affect Hong Yi's chances and destroy the progress of the plot.

"The gold of the five elements of the world is obtained in the later stages of the plot. And I have traveled to the Radius and Circle and have not found another thing of the Five Elements, which can also be deduced from this, the things of the Five Elements must only appear when the plot progresses to a certain point."
