Chapter 20 Horses bark in the middle of the night

[Ask for a recommendation ticket! 】

When going down the mountain, I passed by the town, and the town was called Nanguo Town.

Chen Chu proposed to rest here today and hurry early tomorrow morning.

Ning Caichen was the first to object.

"It's just after noon, and we still have a lot to do."

Chen Chu said: "I see that the weather seems to be raining, let's stay here, it's not bad for half a day." ”

Ning Caichen looked up at the sky, the scorching sun was in the sky, and there were no clouds, where did it look like it was going to rain?

"If Chen Gongzi is tired, he will go on the road alone, and I will thank Chen Gongzi and you for taking care of me for half a day." The scholar, who has always been soft and weak, showed a resolute attitude in this matter that surprised everyone.

The fat man's eyelids jumped, and his temper immediately came.

"It's just half a day, why are you in a hurry?"

Ning Caichen shook his head firmly and said: "Zi said: The deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night. ”

The fat man doesn't know how to learn, he can't understand this ancient saying, and he waved his hand impatiently: "Don't chew words with me, in short, you can't ......"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Chu dragged him over and whispered in his ear: "Forgot the task limit?" Don't use force! ”

"What happens if you use force?"

Chen Chu let go of him and tilted his shoulders, "I'm also curious, you can try." ”

"Fat guy is not stupid." The fat man rolled his eyes, and then said, "Then let him go like this?" ”

Chen Chu sighed: "Do you have a better way?" ”

So Chen Chu and his party had no choice but to continue their journey, and they prepared some more dry food and water in Nanguo Town, and the horses were also changed.

The reason why Chen Chu wanted to stay was because he was worried that he would end up spending the night in Lanruo Temple, and in that case, no one knew what would happen.

Lanxi City is about ten miles away from Nanguo Town, yesterday in Jinhua Mansion asked, to Lanruo Temple, need to pass Lanxi City, and then walk 30 miles.

That is to say, they are now only twenty miles away from Lanruo Temple, and the speed of horseback riding is about 10km/h, and they can reach Lanruo Temple in two hours.

It's 1:20 p.m., and it's not a problem for them to travel for four or five hours straight. In this way, Chen Chu didn't have much to worry about. As long as you don't live in Lanruo Temple, you shouldn't have a problem.

There were three people sitting in the carriage, two girls and Ning Caichen, the glasses man and Shen Sanqian drove the carriage, Li Tiantian rode a horse and walked in the front, and the fat man and Chen Chu were a few meters behind.

A team needs to keep running in to grow and build a fit between them.

And such a formation was arranged by Chen Chu, and he had his reasons. Although the glasses man kept Li Tiantian, he was still an untrustworthy person in Chen Chu's heart, so he let him take the lead. When meeting the bandits, he and the fat man have buffer time to prepare.

The man with glasses is a think-tank character, although he is level 1, he is still much inferior in strength compared to him and the fat man, so he and Shen Sanqian take turns driving the carriage.

Meng Shu and the Queen of the Iceberg are girls, and their subconscious minds are regarded by Chen Chu as objects that need to be protected. As for the scholar, he is a weak scholar, and the task is to protect him, so naturally he can't show his face.

It was very calm all the way, and it took more than an hour to drive, and if nothing else, Lanruo Temple was not far ahead.

"Boom~~"

A burst of thunder suddenly sounded in the clear sky, Chen Chu raised his head, the sun was still in the sky a moment ago, and it was almost just a few breaths, and the clouds were thick.

Chen Chu couldn't wait to smoke his two big mouths, what a crow's mouth, saying that it was going to rain, there was really rain.

"Hurry up, it's going to rain heavily." Chen Chu had a bad premonition in his heart.

The rainstorm came quickly, faster than anyone expected. This rainstorm seemed to have been brewing for a long time, and Chen Chu and the others were caught off guard, and their bodies were soaked after a while.

Ning Caichen poked out half of his head, pointed ahead, and said in surprise: "There is a temple over there." ”

Chen Chu looked in the direction of his finger, and an ancient temple with blue bricks and gray tiles, full of dilapidated atmosphere, appeared in his field of vision.

Chen Chu's heart sank, when did this ancient temple appear? He had looked everywhere just now, and there was nothing at all, but the ancient temple was in front of him, and he had to admit it.

Riding a horse to the outside of the ancient temple, there is a bluestone tablet erected in front of the ancient temple, which reads: Lanruo Temple!

These three words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the seven people fiercely.

Chen Chu glanced at the man with glasses through the rain curtain, and they read the helplessness and anger in each other's eyes.

Helplessly, they tried to change their trajectory and avoid Lanruo Temple, but they still couldn't escape the predicament brought to them by reality.

Anger, an invisible force, manipulated them in the dark.

The horses were tied under the eaves, the ancient temple was very dilapidated, and Chen Chu and the others made a bunch of branches and hay.

Ning Caichen took out a fire fold and lit the hay, and soon the flames were lit, and it gradually turned into a fire.

Chen Chu and the others were soaked, but fortunately, the man with glasses prepared a lot of clothes, dried himself and changed into clean clothes, and the eight people sat down around the fire.

"Chen Gongzi, you are so powerful, you said that there was rain, I thought you were lying to me. Luckily there is an ancient temple here where we can rest. Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed.

Others didn't have a good mood with him, Ning Caichen, Lanruo Temple, just one Nie Xiaoqian.

Ning Caichen didn't seem to notice everyone's depressed mood, and said, "Chen Gongzi, are you calculating, when will this rain stop?" ”

Chen Chu's face twitched, this nerd really thinks of himself as a fortune teller?

"I can't figure it out." Chen Chu didn't have a good airway.

Seeing everyone's heavy faces, Chen Chu said: "If you come, you will be safe, don't cry and mourn your face, ghosts have nothing to be afraid of, people have three fires, not to mention that there are so many of us, ghosts should be afraid of us." ”

Ning Caichen was taken aback and said, "Gongzi Chen, what are you talking about?" There are ghosts here? ”

Meng Shu knew that they would hide from the rain here, all because of Ning Caichen, and snorted lightly: "Don't do bad things and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, scholar, have you done all the bad things on weekdays, so there are ghosts in your heart?" ”

"No, no, my mother has always taught me to be a good person, and I never do anything wrong." Ning Caichen shook his head in fright.

Meng Shu deliberately scared him, and said, "Oh, that's good, most of the ghosts won't look for you." As soon as the conversation changed, she lowered her voice and said, "But I've heard that ghosts like you the most like you with fine skin and tender meat, especially female ghosts, they will become no different from ordinary people, and then use the time to have sex with you to suck your yang energy dry." ”

Ning Caichen was so frightened that his face turned pale and pale, no one said anything, they were happy to see that Ning Caichen was frightened, who asked him to insist on hurrying, and as a result, they all came to Lanruo Temple.

"No, I've never done anything harmful, and the ghosts shouldn't be looking for me." Ning Caichen lacked the confidence to speak.

The fat man snorted: "Ghosts don't matter if you do bad things or not, who made you look so white, if I were a ghost, I would like to eat you." ”

Chen Chu saw that Ning Caichen was almost frightened, and said: "This rain will not stop for a while and a half, we are afraid that we will have to rest here tonight, professor, take out the tent, and we will set it up." ”

Li Tiantian asked, "Aren't you waiting?" When the rain stops, we can continue on our way. ”

Chen Chu saw that Li Tiantian's face was also a little pale, and there was fear in his eyes, I am afraid that he was also frightened by Meng Shu's words just now.

"Don't wait, the rain won't stop." Chen Chu said affirmatively.

Li Tiantian said: "You really know how to tell fortunes?" ”

Chen Chu was speechless, and the man with glasses also laughed helplessly.

Shen Sanqian explained to him softly: "We made an effort to avoid Lanruo Temple several times, but in the end, because of this rain, we still came here. Do you know why? Because this is the original trajectory. ”

Li Tiantian didn't understand it, Meng Shu and the Iceberg Queen understood it a little, and Ning Caichen was there to say: My meat is not delicious, my meat is not delicious......

The rain did not stop, but it became heavier and heavier, and when it was dark, the fat man took out steamed buns and water and distributed them.

Only six tents were set up tonight, and Meng Shu asked for one person to sleep, one for the Queen of the Iceberg, one for Shen Sanqian, and one for Ning Caichen.

Li Tiantian was still pointed out by Chen Chu to sleep by the fire, although he was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey.

For the rest of the empty tents, Chen Chu and the three of them took turns to rest, and they took turns to keep vigil tonight.

In the first half of the night, it was a man with glasses, and at ten o'clock, he changed to a fat man. Chen Chu has been sitting by the fire and practicing the fire refining technique.

Chen Chu felt as if he was about to break through, his body was full of spiritual energy, and his whole body was in a terrible spirit. And as Chen Chu's cultivation improved, the speed at which he absorbed the aura was also accelerating.

The fat man also wanted to cultivate, but when he cultivated, there was no one to keep vigil. There are still two hours left, and Chen Chu's cultivation will be over, and he will be replaced when the time comes.

In the wee hours of the morning, a gust of wind blew, and the broken wooden doors and windows were blown with a tooth-aching rattle.

The flames blew, and the fat man looked up and looked around, but there was nothing. He pursed his lips, thinking that there really should be a ghost, and he slashed it with a single sword. The snow drinking madness knife bought for 3,000 god coins made his self-confidence burst to the extreme. What demons and monsters, what traps and tricks, all of them are slashed with one sword.

The fat man looked down at the flames in a daze, and above his head, a woman dressed in white, with a delicate and picturesque face without a trace of blood, was floating in the air in violation of Newton's law of universal gravitation, and was slowly descending, and her hands were slowly clawed towards the fat man's head.

"咴咴~"

The horse tethered to the eaves suddenly screamed, and the fat man looked up instantly. The sound of fragmented footsteps came from outside, and the fat man glanced at Chen Chu, who didn't seem to be disturbed.

The fat man summoned the Snow Drink Mania Knife, and the woman in white above her head felt the extremely cold aura emanating from the Snow Drink Maniac Knife, a touch of panic flashed on her indifferent face, and her body disappeared in an instant.

The fat man carried the snow drinking knife, walked lightly, and walked quickly to the gate of the ancient temple.

The horse only called and fell silent, and in a moment the footsteps approached and the door was pushed. The fat man's eyes were like torches, and his hands clenched the hilt of the knife, just waiting for the goblin to appear.

"Squeak!" The door was pushed open, and a foot tightening his trouser leg stepped in.

"Where did the ghost come from, look at the fat brother, I will cut your peach blossoms with one sword!" The fat man yelled in broken Cantonese and slashed with a knife.
