Chapter 121: A Tree
Ye Qiu didn't know how he returned to his residence from the restaurant, but when he woke up in the middle of the night, he still remembered what happened to him in the restaurant that day, Ye Qiu felt that he should find a day to say thank you to Zong Ziyu, as for the specific circumstances of what happened that day, Ye Qiu couldn't remember it clearly.
Ye Qiu was often woken up by the jingling bells of Tongling Temple at night, and the sound was very crisp one after another. Ye Qiu is a light sleeper, and he will wake up at the slightest sound, but Ye Qiu falls asleep quickly, and he falls asleep after closing his eyes for a while. Ye Qiu had been woken up by the bell from this Tongling Temple more than once, and he couldn't understand how this Tongling Temple often heard such a sound at night.
Tongling Temple has always been in Ye Qiu's heart, the last time the Yunwuling seniors left here, they also specially reminded him not to go to Tongling Temple, but the seniors said this, but it aroused Ye Qiu's interest, Ye Qiu stayed in Vientiane City for so long, and found a strange phenomenon, that is, the clouds in the sky of Tongling Temple are always more than the clouds in the sky in other places, and they are lower from a distance, and sometimes the clouds will show bright colors, when I was in Yunwuling before, the master once said that wherever there are demons living in the city, the color of the sky there will be a little different from other places, all of this made Ye Qiu's heart full of curiosity. Ye Qiu has been in Vientiane City for several months, and he also has some understanding of the rough life and customs of Vientiane City, and the people in Vientiane City are usually very friendly to him when they see him, but Ye Qiu still feels that he is still very unfamiliar with Vientiane City, and there seems to be some secrets hidden here, but he still can't figure it out for a while.
Ye Qiu always felt that maybe this secret was hidden in the Tongling Temple, Ye Qiu was tormented by this strange feeling for a while, until he finally decided to go to Tongling Temple to have a look, Ye Qiu thought to himself, didn't Zong Ziyu say it last time, Tongling Temple is just a dilapidated and abandoned temple, there are still some old monks who have nowhere to go to the down, even the people in Vientiane City are about to forget about it, Zong Ziyu's expression and tone when he said this made Ye Qiu faintly feel in his heart that Zong Ziyu seemed to want to deliberately hide something.
Ye Qiu picked a clear day, and then carried his fairy sword Qingguang Sword and finally hit the road, he is now very familiar with the road in Vientiane City, he took a shortcut, walked through three or four arch bridges in succession, and he could already see the Tongling Temple, but when Ye Qiu was full of joy and wanted to walk across the last bridge to the Tongling Temple, he found that the bridge body of the wooden bridge was only half, the other half had been broken, and the other half of the wooden bridge was now collapsed in the water, and the place where the bridge body was broken seemed to be broken by some gravity, and the cracks in the wood where the bridge body was broken were a bit like they collapsed not long ago, and now it is impossible to walk through this bridge。
Ye Qiu looked around, and couldn't see any way to pass, so he had to fly into the air, and then fell directly to the door of the Tongling Temple, the quaint gate of the Tongling Temple is very tall, the three words of the Tongling Temple are pasted with gold leaf in the line of the dragon flying and phoenix dance, it looks very imposing, but the weeds at the door are almost one person high, the road into the door is almost blocked, the gate is not closed, it is ajar, Ye Qiu shouted a few times at the door, but he couldn't hear the response of a person in the temple, Ye Qiu stood outside the door of the Tongling Temple, thinking that this Tongling Temple looks like it has been abandoned for a long time, I don't know what's going on inside.
Ye Qiu waited at the door for a while, and saw that no one came out, so he carefully pushed open the gate of the Tongling Temple, he just walked into the gate, and suddenly heard a sound of copper bells, Ye Qiu was full of vigilance in his heart, at this time, as soon as the copper bell rang, Ye Qiu immediately pulled out the Qingguang sword, held it in his hand, and looked around to be guarded, the sound came from above his head, Ye Qiu looked up, and saw that there were more than a dozen small copper bells hanging on the roof of the gate, and the sound just now was the sound of those small copper bells shaking, Ye Qiu understood this time, it must be when he pushed the door just now, the gate touched those small copper bells, that's why I made those voices just now.
Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, he put the Qingguang Sword back into the scabbard, he listened to the crisp sound of the small copper bell, and suddenly remembered, isn't this sound the sound of being woken up when he sleeps at night? This little copper bell looks very exquisitely made, as long as it hits a little, or when the wind blows, this copper bell will make a crisp sound. Ye Qiu walked towards the temple, although the road in this temple has been overgrown with all kinds of weeds, but the road is very smooth, there are many houses on both sides of the road, but there seems to be no one living in it, Ye Qiu walked alone in this temple, at this time he slowly felt a little scared in his heart, he listened to the surrounding movements all the time, and also wanted to know if someone was still living in it, he just yelled a few times at a few empty houses, and he could still hear the echo of his voice, but no one responded to him at all, sometimes walking and walking, and suddenly he would hear an abnormal sound in an unknown place, but when Ye Qiu nervously chased the sound over, but I didn't find anything, maybe it was just some rats scurrying around.
Ye Qiu calmed down his mood now, if he continued to be so scared, I was afraid that he would be frightened by himself, Ye Qiu took a few deep breaths, and walked along the road in the courtyard towards the inside, Tongling Temple is really too big, bigger than he thought before, and there is no one to find here, Ye Qiu didn't know where to go for a while, he looked up and saw a towering tree in the high place of Tongling Temple, Ye Qiu decided to go under the big tree first, Ye Qiu followed the road, and finally slowly walked to the big tree.
The big tree grew in a relatively empty place, the height was almost the same as the clouds in the sky, and there were also a few rooms in this courtyard, which seemed to be more elaborate than the other houses, but Ye Qiu had looked at it carefully, and there was indeed no one in this house.
But at this time, the big tree in front of him made Ye Qiu feel more interesting, he had never seen such a tall tree even when he was in Yunwuling before, there was also a wooden sign under this big tree, which was engraved with three big characters of Linglong tree, Ye Qiu had never seen this kind of tree before, he looked up at the dense growth of the leaves of the big tree, it was a small circle, covering the sky, and the sun in the sky was almost impenetrable, Ye Qiu touched the rough bark of the big tree with his hand, and suddenly felt that the bark still had some temperature, Ye Qiu thought it was his own illusion at first, Ye Qiu put his hand on another part of the trunk of the big tree, and he could still feel some temperature, Ye Qiu's heart suddenly rose with a chill, according to the record of the book "Speaking of Demons", everything that can feel the temperature on the tree is the characteristics of demons.
