Chapter 135: Lanruo Temple

On the street, Han Lie was wandering around, originally he wanted to invite Ning Caichen to a meal, but he insisted on refusing and had to give up.

This stubborn scholar felt that he had not recovered Han Lie's losses, and he had done a bad guy and a good deed out of thin air, and he felt quite bored in his heart.

Therefore, he was very embarrassed to stay by Han Lie's side, so he left on his own under the pretext of collecting debts.

Han Lie didn't force it, anyway, he could meet again in the evening, so he just let him go.

Walking on the way back to the coffin shop, Han Lie spread out the picture scroll in his hand, and a picture of a beautiful woman dressing appeared in front of him, which he had just bought at the painting stall.

If I remember correctly, the beauty painted on this is the legendary beautiful ghost Nie Xiaoqian.

The painting of this painting can only be said to be average, but it outlines the lazy posture of the beauty dressing up, but it does have a bit of artistic conception and is worth collecting.

Moreover, Han Lie was still on this painting, faintly feeling a trace of coldness, it seems that this painting is not so simple.

Putting away the scroll, Han Lie looked up, then spread out his smiling face, stepped forward quickly, and shouted, "Little Brother Ning, we met again so soon, have you received your account?" ”

Ning Caichen, who was walking towards him, glanced at Han Lie dejectedly, and sighed: "Let Mr. see it and smile, my account book is wet with rain, and the shopkeeper doesn't recognize it." ”

Han Lie pretended to be stunned and asked, "Then little brother, what are you going to do?" If you can't collect the account, won't you have no money to take? ”

Ning Caichen replied helplessly: "Now I have to find a place to stay overnight first, and then make plans, but I must receive this account." ”

Hearing this, Han Lie laughed and patted his chest. said: "That's just right, Han bought this painting." Now that I am penniless, it is better to find a place to stay. It can also be used as a companion. ”

Glancing at the picture scroll in Han Lie's hand, Ning Caichen smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. is so chic, with the demeanor of an ancient celebrity. ”

People have money to spend, but they don't have money to spend, the gap is really not small, Ning Caichen couldn't help but sigh.

As he spoke, Han Lie had already walked up, and Ning Caichen was in no mood to refuse this time. He was desperate at the moment, and he didn't know what to do.

The two walked side by side, and Han Lie casually said some strange stories from the south and the north, which made Ning Caichen's feelings a little more stable.

Walking to the door of the coffin shop again, Ning Caichen signaled to Han Lie, and then stepped forward and asked, "Boss, where can I stay for free for one night without money?" ”

The boss was doing another business when he looked up and saw that it was him. Dengshi was a little angry.

But as soon as I thought of those gold leaves, this bit of anger dissipated, and I glanced up and down, and saw Ning Caichen's down-and-out appearance. He replied casually: "Don't spend money on accommodation?" Let's go to Lanruo Temple! ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy street suddenly quieted down, as if the three words "Lanruo Temple" were three. There's some kind of strange magic.

Everyone's eyes turned and put down the boss and Ning Caichen. was stared at very uncomfortably, and the boss quickly coughed several times. The crowd then resumed their hustle and bustle.

Ning Caichen looked at the unusual crowd and asked again, "May I ask where Lanruo Temple is?" ”

The noisy street was quiet again, and the boss hesitated for a moment, then replied weakly: "Lanruo Temple? Walk three and a half miles east from here, there is a good and gloomy ancient temple! ”

As soon as the words fell, the crowd became noisy again, Ning Caichen felt a little confused, frowned, and replied, "Thank you, thank you." ”

After that, he separated the crowd, returned to Han Lie's side, glanced at the crowd with slanted eyes, and whispered to him: "Sir, the people here are very strange, let's go quickly." ”

Of course, Han Lie understood why they were weird, but he was not obliged to explain to Ning Caichen, so he immediately nodded with a smile.

The two of them then walked eastward, and after walking less than a hundred meters, Han Lie stopped him, took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, and said, "Let's buy some candles and lanterns for the last remaining point." ”

Ning Caichen said suddenly: "Mr. is still thoughtful, and he really has to have these uses." ”

On the other end, after the owner of the coffin shop settled a new business, he looked up and saw the figures of the two people, and he was a little puzzled.

He said to himself: "Hey, isn't that the rich uncle, how did he get mixed up with that poor boy, do you want to go to Nalanruo Temple......

The boss shook his head and sighed: "Alas, I didn't let them measure their bodies just now, otherwise it would be a prefabricated coffin, I hope my ancestral broken book is useful, if it is useless, don't blame me if you die." ”

…………

Whew!!

Hiss! Hiss!

The wolf howl and the sound of splitting sounded alternately, and Ning Caichen watched in astonishment as Han Lie passed through the wolves, leaving behind wolf corpses.

A moment later, there were more than a dozen black puff corpses lying on the ground, and the remaining wolves were captured by Han Lie's momentum, and they didn't dare to linger any longer, so they fled one after another.

Clapping his hands and throwing away the branches in his hands, Han Lie glanced back, saw Ning Caichen's stunned expression, and said with a smile: "Little Brother Ning, don't be surprised, walking the rivers and lakes, you must have a skill." ”

Ning Caichen shuddered, woke up, saw Han Lie's smile, and hurriedly replied: "I understand, I understand, the rivers and lakes are sinister, you must have the ability to defend yourself......"

Han Lie didn't say much, and mentioned the two wolf corpses and said, "It just so happens that we haven't had dinner, we can use these beasts to make a living, although the taste won't be too good, but this will not be too particular." ”

Ning Caichen swallowed his saliva carefully, glanced at the wolf corpse timidly, nodded and replied, "Since this is the case, let Mr. arrange it." ”

The two continued on their journey, when it was getting dark, the sun had completely set, and only some afterglow was still in the sky, but it was about to disappear.

Crossing the woods, they soon arrived at Lanruo Temple in the east of the county seat, and the moment they stepped into the temple entrance, the sun set completely, and the sky completely fell into darkness.

A gloomy wind rises from the ground, the temple is gloomy, and the three dark ancient characters engraved on the stone tablet carry endless vicissitudes, which seem to tell the story here.

The ancient temple is overgrown with weeds, and there are stone towers with simple shapes at the entrance, which looks gloomy and weird.

Han Lie threw the lantern to Ning Caichen and motioned for him to light it. Then he set his eyes on the high pole in front of the temple.

There are several small bells at the top of the pole. Under the strong wind, it kept rattling. Han Lie listened attentively, and vaguely heard a soft moan coming from the wind.

At this time, Ning Caichen's embarrassed voice came from behind him, he interrupted Han Lie's listening, and said embarrassedly: "Sir, this wind is too strong, it's not good to light a fire outside, let's go in first." ”

Han Lie turned his head and smiled. He took the lantern and the fire and said, "Let me do it." ”

After saying that, he turned around to stop Ning Caichen's sight, wiped his hand, lit the lantern, and handed it back to Ning Caichen.

Seeing that Han Lie casually lit the fire, Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed, and then a little embarrassed, looking up to see that Han Lie didn't care, and immediately coughed twice. Put away the emote.

Han Lie raised the lantern, walked to the stone tablet at the door, leaned over and wiped the inscription, and sighed, "This Lanruo Temple is so desolate and treacherous. No wonder the previous county residents had strange expressions. ”

Hearing this, Ning Caichen looked around, and then said, "Sir." The son is silent, and the power is confused, as long as we are upright. Even if there are oddities, they are easy to dispel. ”

Laughed. Han Lie glanced back at him, nodded his chin slightly, and didn't say anything more.

Walking into the temple, a more intense and cold cold wind became more and more violent, and a metal clash came from inside!

Han Lie stopped Ning Caichen and took the lead in breaking in, and immediately saw two figures fighting in the temple, one of them was the Xiahou swordsman he had seen earlier.

The other person, with thick eyebrows and big eyes and beard, if there is no accident, it should be that Yan Chixia.

I saw Yan Chixia jumping down from the attic, slashing Huashan with one blow, and directly taking the middle palace of the Xiahou swordsman, while the Xiahou swordsman tried his best to block the blow.

The two of you come and go, the sword light flickers, and in this yin wind, they keep churning back and forth.

Han Lie saw clearly from the sidelines, in terms of swordsmanship, the strength of the two was comparable, and it could be said that the opponent would meet the good material in chess, and basically belonged to the situation where no one could help anyone.

But in terms of light skills, Yan Chixia is obviously a step ahead, and although Xiahou swordsman can also leap and tumble, he is always one step behind Yan Chixia.

As long as Yan Chixia has a little strategy, she can use this advantage to seize the flaws of Xiahou swordsman and take the opportunity to kill.

Sure enough, at the same time as Han Lie made his evaluation, Yan Chixia made a trick, deliberately showed weakness, and hid in the room on the side, Xiahou swordsman did not suspect him, and chased and killed.

In the next moment, Yan Chixia's figure burst out from another broken gap and attacked Xiahou Swordsman's back, and suddenly, he was caught off guard.

Xiahou swordsman was seized of the opportunity, and between the masters, one wrong step, one wrong step, so it was too late to remedy.

The victory and defeat were decided in an instant, and the two sides who were fighting just now were inseparable, and the two sides were evenly matched, and in this way, the battle ended with the defeat of the Xiahou swordsman.

Wiping the wound on his shoulder, Xiahou Swordsman held the sword in one hand and said coldly: "I lost again." ”

Yan Chixia crossed the tip of the sword and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiahou, you and I have fought for seven years, and you have lost for seven years, but you are quite patient, you will chase you wherever I avoid." ”

Xiahou swordsman narrowed his eyes: "Yan Chixia, I can't imagine that you have been in this Lanruo Temple for half a month and sharpened your sword even more!" ”

With a light snort, Yan Chixia shook her head, "No, it's just that you wasted your youth......"

Han Lie, who witnessed this qiē, couldn't help but say, "Hmm...... These two are both masters of the pretending world, and their skills are not inferior to mine. ”

Ning Caichen then followed in, Yan Chixia and Xiahou Swordsman turned their eyes together, glanced at Han Lie and Ning Caichen, and then talked nonsense to each other.

Yan Chixia relied on herself to win, and she had more beard than the other side, so she began to open her mouth, taking this opportunity to teach Xiahou swordsmen a lesson.

And the Xiahou swordsman lost a lot of this skill, and in the face of Yan Chixia's mouth cannon, he was powerless to make any resistance, so he had to snort a few times angrily, and then drew his sword and left.

The moment he passed by Han Lie, Han Lie's fingers shook, and a faint silver light was bounced into Xiahou Swordsman's body from his fingertips.

Xiahou Swordsman didn't notice it, stopped at the gate of the temple for a while, and after glancing at Han Lie, he quickly left.

Yan Chixia put away her long sword, looked at the two of them, and asked, "What are you two doing here?" ”

Han Lie pulled away Ning Caichen, who just wanted to reply, stepped forward and said with a smile: "This hero, the two of us are penniless and have nowhere to go, I want to come to the precious land for a night, I don't know if I can be accommodating?" ”

Yan Chixia flatly refused: "There is no way to be accommodating, it's inconvenient!" ”

Han Lie arched his hand and said, "Then thank you, let's live here and be neighbors with Daxia......"

Ning Caichen pulled his arm and whispered, "Sir, did you hear it wrong, what this hero said is inconvenient." ”

Glancing at him, Han Lie shook his head and didn't speak, Yan Chixia saw this and sneered: "Look at your tall and strong, your ears are not as good as your thin companion." ”

Han Lie laughed, spread his hands and said: "Don't be surprised, the two of us really have nowhere to go, so we have to be cheeky and make trouble for the hero, Brother Ning, go and tidy up the room." ”

Tilting her head, Yan Chixia stared at Han Lie deadly, then glanced at Ning Caichen, and snorted coldly: "Aren't you two afraid of death, dare to come to this Lanruo Temple to stay!" ”

Ning Caichen muttered: "What is there to be afraid of, is there still a tiger here?" ”

His voice was very small, but it couldn't escape Yan Chixia's ears, Yan Chixia's eyes were round, she looked at him, and scolded: "There are no tigers here, but there are things more terrible than tigers, don't look for death!" ”

Han Lie replied: "I have always believed that life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, and heroes don't have to be for me. Worry, we've got to have a place to rest anyway. ”

Yan Chixia's gaze suddenly turned to the wolf corpse behind the two of them that was still on the ground by Han Lie, and sneered: "It turns out that you have something to rely on, then you can ask for more blessings." ”

With that, he took two steps and one step at a time, stepped directly on a stone tower next to him, jumped up, and disappeared in an instant.

Yan Chixia's warning voice came from the sky: "There are powerful ghosts in this ancient temple, who specialize in harming those who are uncertain and have a weak will, so you can do it yourself." ”

When Ning Caichen heard this, he felt that the wind was gusting everywhere, and it was gloomy and unclear, and he couldn't help but shiver again. (To be continued......)
