Cooking smoke, old trees, crows......

Mountain village, small temple, the end of the world......

When Yan Liqiang walked out of this temple, the whole person's heart was empty, and after seven or eight months of countless attempts to cross the mountains and mountains through the city and county, he could only wander around like a lonely ghost, neither cold nor hungry, neither eating nor sleeping, neither dying nor living, no matter how strong a person is, at this time, it is inevitable that he will be a little disappointed, and even despair......

Yan Liqiang doesn't know where he is now, anyway, this place is far, far away from Ganzhou in the Han Empire.

The small temple is called Qingliang Temple, it is built on the slope of this mountain, there is only one half-monk and half-lay old temple Zhu in the temple, when Yan Liqiang left, the gray-haired old temple Zhu is napping on the recliner at the door, saliva is flowing, sleeping so unsteadily, on the head of the old temple Zhu, it is the plaque of Qingliang Temple that has already been mottled, on both sides of the temple door, there are two sentences of Buddha that have fallen off the paint.

——If you are not greedy, you will be cool, and you will not be foolish.

Looking at the two Buddhist sayings at the entrance of the temple, Yan Liqiang smiled bitterly.

Yan Liqiang was not a staunch materialist in his previous life, and he was even less determined in this life, so since two months ago, once he encountered a place such as a Taoist temple on the road, Yan Liqiang couldn't help but go in and worship, praying to the gods and Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to give him another chance to be reborn.

Floating around like this every day seems to be fun, but after a long time, Yan Liqiang still feels a suffocating fear, he is afraid that he will go on like this forever, and he can only be a floating spectator in the world forever, even among tens of millions of people, he is lonely.

There is a village at the foot of the hill of the small temple, at this time, the sunset is full of sky, it is the time when every household is cooking dinner, the village is full of smoke, it seems quite quiet.

Yan Liqiang glanced at the bottom of the mountain, did not go down the mountain, a few months ago he also liked to go to different people's houses to see the people in the world, and now, looking at the lives of those people as a bystander, for Yan Liqiang, it has become a kind of torture, which makes Yan Liqiang feel more like a lonely ghost abandoned by the whole world.

Following the mountain path behind the small temple, Yan Liqiang didn't take long to come to the top of the mountain, he sat on a boulder under a pine tree on the top of the mountain, alone, quietly watching the sun slowly set in the west, watching the sunset turn to ashes and the night falling.

He didn't want to leave today, he didn't want to try, he didn't want to run, he just wanted to stay alone on this nameless hill for one night, after all these months, his body was like the wind, it seemed that he would never feel tired, and his heart was already tired.

As the sun set and the stars rose, Yan Liqiang stretched out his hand, looked at his arm that had no shadow in the moonlight, shook his head helplessly, and closed his eyes.

The strange boulder that was familiar and unfamiliar appeared in front of Yan Liqiang's eyes again the moment he closed his eyes.

In the past seven or eight months, Yan Liqiang's longest time was to stare at this strange stone with his eyes closed for more than ten hours, and tried to communicate with this stone in various ways, but it was useless, but today, after closing his eyes, he looked at the strange stone, and in frustration, Yan Liqiang's eyes never opened, and people did not wander around anymore.

An hour passed...... Five hours passed...... Ten hours passed...... A day passed......

When the sun set again and the starry sky appeared again, Yan Liqiang, who had been looking at the stone for more than twenty-four hours, suddenly felt that the strange boulder suddenly shone brightly, showing something he had never seen before, just when Yan Liqiang was surprised, the boulder emitted a rainbow-like brilliance and shone on Yan Liqiang's body, and before Yan Liqiang could react, he felt that the strange boulder suddenly became like a huge magnet, producing an irresistible and powerful attraction, and his entire body and consciousness instantly turned into a light and submerged into the boulder。

- Is this reincarnation, hehe, I hope I can look more handsome in my next life......

Before losing consciousness, this was the last self-deprecating thought in Yan Liqiang's head.

For the rest of the day, Yan Liqiang felt like he had a long dark dream.

......

"Ah ......" The tip of his nose was a little itchy, Yan Liqiang couldn't help but sneeze, and then opened his eyes and woke up.

What caught Yan Liqiang's eyes were a few remnant stars hanging in the bright sky, as well as the pine tree overhead, a drop of grass with dewdrops, just next to his face, he sneezed, and the dew on the grass flew to his face, making him feel a chill.

Yan Liqiang blinked, was he dreaming?

In a daze, he raised his hand and placed it in front of his eyes, a strong, young hand, with an ivory luster on the skin and slender fingers, full of strange and somewhat strange beauty.

Looking at this hand, Yan Liqiang's head crashed for a few seconds, and he didn't react to what was going on, but after a few seconds, Yan Liqiang's eyes widened suddenly, and the whole person jumped up from the ground as if he had been electrocuted.

After jumping up, Yan Liqiang found that the place where he was was the top of the familiar nameless hill.

The pine tree is still the same pine tree, the stone next to the pine tree is still the same stone, he looked down the mountain, and the Qingliang Temple was not far away.

How could this be, wasn't I reincarnated, how could I be here? Was it a dream......

A gust of mountain wind blew, and the chill in the wind made Yan Liqiang can't help but sneeze again, "Ahh......h

At this time, Yan Liqiang found that he was naked, without a wisp, he looked down, this body seemed to be a little different from before, but fortunately, it was also with a handle......

Yan Liqiang was excited, and couldn't help shouting on the top of the mountain, startling several birds in the nearby forest at once, and Yan Liqiang stopped all at once.

After the excitement, looking at his current appearance, Yan Liqiang suppressed his excitement and carefully followed the mountain road to feel the darkness down the mountain.

The mountain road is not easy to walk, there are some gravel and dead branches and leaves on the mountain road, when stepping on it barefoot, it is very uncomfortable, even a little stinging, and before he has gone far, the soles of Yan Liqiang's feet are punctured by the dead branches and gravel on the ground, and it hurts a little.

But Yan Liqiang didn't care at all, at this time, being able to feel the pain in his body again became a pleasure for Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang, who was naked, came to Qingliang Temple as fast as possible, climbed over the wall and entered the temple, there was no one in this temple at night, and the old temple Zhu was not there, Yan Liqiang was directly in a utility room in the temple, and found a set of old clothes that barely fit and a pair of old shoes to change into.

——Borrow a few clothes for the time being today, and he will return them a hundred times a day!

After leaving such a sentence on the wall of the utility room, Yan Liqiang put on old clothes and left Qingliang Temple.

When he came to the main road at the foot of the mountain, in the early morning light, Yan Liqiang finally couldn't help but roar, "I'm alive, I'm alive......"
