Chapter 243: Steps of the Ancient Temple
The bell was not as loud as Yin Xiyue imagined, but it was very long and penetrating.
Amid the echoing bells in the mountains, the two men continued to walk forward, and along the way, the original chirping of birds also quieted down, as if they were silenced by the bells.
Xia Yanfei covered the girl's ear with her other hand, and then pressed her other ear into her chest.
The girl put her arms around his waist from the side and smiled.
"Actually, this bell sounds fine, and there won't be any discomfort to your ears."
"Then it is necessary to block it, otherwise if you are like a tiger cat, I will be guilty of too much."
"Is the little witch that stupid......
"I think so."
"I don't think so!"
Yin Xiyue pinched his waist plungingly, then stood on tiptoe to make him lower his head.
"It's not okay for you to cover my ears for me, I'll also block it for you~"
"Girl, be lighter, your ears will be pulled off."
"Wow, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my vision is a little bad, I didn't find the right place, it doesn't hurt, it's not right, it's not right, how can it not hurt......
The girl broke free from his hand in a panic, and then checked it carefully, fortunately she let go as soon as possible, Xia Yanfei's ears were not problematic except for some infrared.
"Whew...... Fortunately, your ears are still healthy."
The little witch's slightly cool slender fingers gently pinched his earlobe, rubbing it curiously, her delicate finger skin rubbing against his.
Xia Yanfei's ears, which had been cooling down, began to heat up.
"It's strange, why is it getting hot again, hmm, Yanfei, you weren't dragged out by me just now, right, such as the meridians inside are damaged or the capillaries are ruptured......
In an instant, he thought about a variety of situations, Yin Xiyue was worried, and he turned out his wand in his hand to give him a freezing magic, and then fix the wound first.
The next second, she was turned around by Xia Yanfei, let her turn her back to him, and then covered the girl's little head.
"There's nothing wrong with my ears, don't worry, there's only one reason why it's hot."
"Don't hide from me, let me take a closer look."
"Hello Girl, hot ears are a sign of shyness, and it's because of you."
「…… Me?"
"It's okay, don't pull my earlobe, remember?"
"I seem to understand......
Yin Xiyue shyly shrunk into Xia Yanfei's arms behind her, precisely because this guy was pinching her earlobe seriously.
"Got it? That's good."
He immediately stopped what he was doing, but the girl rubbed against him dissatisfiedly, why did he stop suddenly, wow, he hadn't felt enough yet.
Xia Yanfei had to pinch her earlobe again under the coquettishness of the kitten, but this time he continued until the girl's waist was almost soft.
In the end, it was Yin Xiyue who begged for mercy.
……
……
The gate of the ancient temple is simple and simple, hidden in the hanging leaves of the giant trees on both sides, and you can see some of the scenery from afar through the slender cracks in the door.
Xia Yanfei did not take Yin Xiyue to knock on the door together, but pushed open one door of the door, and in the squeak with the smell of rain, they walked in.
He closed the door with his arm hard, and the girl behind him was speechless in astonishment.
The large water-gray boulders build a staircase in front of you, layer by layer, and create a long path through the mountains, which ends in dense bamboo forests and woods.
The sound of the bamboo forest swaying in the rain is much crisper than that of the trees on one side, and when the bamboo leaves hit each other, a large splash of clear water was splashed on top of it.
The steps were already soaked, and small streams were left along the surface of some potholes, but they were carried
Not a trace of turbidity.
It was so well maintained and so clean.
The sound of the forest is layered on top of each other, but it doesn't make people feel scared at all, only feel reassured.
Yin Xiyue turned around, it turned out that the gate belonged to the outermost layer of the ancient temple, which was hidden in the leaves, and if you really wanted to enter, you had to walk through this long staircase to reach it.
"Actually, this wall doesn't enclose the whole ancient temple, if we follow the wall towards the edge, we will find that it eventually disappears into the earth, and only the shallow bricks are left outside."
"Actually, the wall is just a symbol, and the place where the wall is located is actually the most difficult part of the way up the mountain."
"Well, the ancient temple will always open its gates to everyone, and no matter where you go, you will actually come to the front of the steps, you see, can you see some paths in the forest?"
"I see it, but on a rainy day like today, it shouldn't be very good......
"Yes, that's why I chose to walk to the gate, if you walk the path between the trees in the rain, even if you have an umbrella, you will get wet, after all, the umbrella can only block the top, and there is no way to do it on the side."
Xia Yanfei shook the handle of the umbrella in his hand, and the water fell instantly, and then hit the gray stone under his feet.
"Okay girl, we should go on our way, remember to keep your eyes open."
"Well, will you be able to see the buildings in the ancient temple next?"
"Not only that, but there's something better."
……
……
Yin Xiyue stood in front of the railing of a corner building in the ancient temple, the scenery in the rain in front of her was ethereal and beautiful, and she found that she had been deeply attracted.
Walking up the long stone steps, there will be different paths along the way that lead to the different buildings in the ancient temple, which are faithfully fulfilling their responsibilities and silently sticking to them regardless of the wind and rain.
After Xia Yanfei stopped from the first intersection with the girl, they came to the front of this building together, and it was strange that there was no one in such a large building.
"The senior brothers and the abbot master don't bother the people who come here, they are all working in their own places, but they can't be found at all, like the girl, look over there."
Xia Yanfei pointed out another taller building in the distance, and a steady figure could be seen sweeping the leaves washed down by the rain.
In the other direction, there are also people who are carrying water with flat poles, all of them wearing gray monk's robes and ancient hats, and their movements are meticulous.
"Although there is tap water here, the senior brothers still prefer to carry water, although it is from the newly installed faucet above the wellhead, I have also picked it before, it is a technical job, and it is easy to walk unsteadily."
"What if the water is spilled?"
"What can I do, turn back and get another bucket, it's like watering the woods, just remember to wash the bucket."
