"When I arrived here, it was still three hundred miles away from the Goddess Palace, and this time I was a little late for some reason, presumably the other forces that were invited should have arrived. ”

Lin Yu finally accepted He Donglai's invitation and walked with them, originally he didn't have any big grievances with a group of people from He Donglai, this was just Ping'er's too poisonous tongue to scold him a few words, and He Donglai was talking with Lin Yu on the road, obviously very interested in Lin Yu, a student of the Blue Leaf Academy who had risen this year.

"The night is deep, the wind is biting, the so-called polar day is gone, why doesn't Brother Donglai choose to rest, but insist on rushing at night?"

He Donglai smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother Lin doesn't know, two miles ahead, there is a dilapidated Taoist temple in front of it, where you can shelter from the wind and snow, and after walking in the snow for so long, it is good to go there to take off the warmth." ”

"Oh, it's a Taoist temple again?"

Lin Yu's eyes moved, and he didn't know why there was a faint trace of uneasiness lingering in his heart, and that kind of uneasiness came very strangely but inexplicably.

The two-mile road is very fast, and the time has arrived in the blink of an eye. In the snow, on a protruding snow surface in front of him, the lights were bright, that was the Taoist temple that He Donglai said, after arriving at the Martial King, Lin Yu's perception was extremely keen, he looked at the Taoist temple protruding from the snow surface, his brows furrowed slightly, and he seemed to feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

The Taoist temple is not very magnificent, it is very small, like a farmhouse's courtyard. Perhaps because few people come to worship, the Taoist temple seems to be dilapidated, several pieces of the wall skin have fallen, peeling off the small door with paint marks, and there is a rusty copper bell hanging on the small door, it seems that because the weather is too cold, the rusty copper bell, a trace of frost condensed on it.

"This ......"

Lin Yu's heart suddenly changed, and his expression suddenly changed drastically, he was too familiar with the Taoist temple in front of him. It was exactly the same as the inn he stayed at on a snowy night more than a month ago. This shocked him, that Taoist temple should be located eight thousand miles away from him now, but how could it suddenly appear here? This is so unbelievable, when he first entered that Taoist temple. Lin Yu didn't feel anything strange. At this moment, he couldn't help but be suspicious. Is it that I was dazzled and misunderstood? Or is it that the Taoist temples in the Arctic Land are almost so dilapidated? There is a trace of luck in Lin Yu's heart.

"Hee-hee...... Beast, I didn't expect that there was a Taoist temple in this barren mountain and wild range. Now it's time to get some rest. Zhou Ting on the side said happily to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was preoccupied, and when he heard the words, he let out a soft "um......", fell silent, and stopped talking.

He Donglai glanced at Lin Yu with some suspicion, seeing that his expression was wrong, his brows moved slightly, but he didn't speak, and gently pulled the copper bell hanging on the small door, the crisp voice was exceptionally bright in the night, and he looked up abruptly, Lin Yu found that the wind and snow seemed to be much smaller at the moment.

Creak......

Suddenly, the small door with peeling paint marks was gently opened, and an old Taoist priest, holding an oil lamp in his hand and protecting the wick with his sleeves, looked at He Donglai with a kind face and said: "The little donor is also a passer-by in the wind and snow, right? Come in quickly! The wind and snow are heavy outside." ”

"It's a long talk, and it's a lot of disturbing. He Donglai bowed his hand and said humbly, he took the lead in stepping into the Taoist temple, and the rest of the Ethereal Pavilion disciples also showed joy on their faces, after all, it was indeed not easy to find a place to avoid the wind and cold in this snowy night.

Lin Yu was as stunned as a wooden chicken, he kept looking at the old Taoist, the trace of luck in the heart of the whole person was completely extinguished, the Taoist priest in front of him was the Taoist who opened the door for him when Lin Yu pulled the copper bell that night, the same question, the same is holding the oil lamp in his hand, and protecting the wick in his hand, as if he reappeared yesterday.

"It's snowing outside, so come in! Although the humble house is simple, it can still cover up some wind and snow. The old Taoist priest was as full of gods as jade, and he smiled at Lin Yu with concern, his eyes were clear, and he almost made Lin Yu fall into a trance.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, staring at the old Taoist like a torch, as if he wanted to see him through, the old Taoist smiled with a charitable face, and from his body, Lin Yu did not feel the slightest extraordinary, which means that the old Taoist in front of him was an ordinary person who had not cultivated, which made Lin Yu even more puzzled.

"Dao Chief, we met a month ago, do you remember?"

Lin Yu took a deep breath, his face moved slightly, and he asked in a cold tone, after speaking, he stared at Lao Dao with his eyes, wanting to find out some clues, but in the end he was still disappointed, the old Dao in front of him looked as usual, and said with a gentle smile: "Xiaoyou is joking, Xiaoyou obviously came today, how can we say that we met a month ago?"

"Really?"

The corners of Lin Yu's mouth were slightly raised, and he asked rhetorically, and said with a slight expression: "That may also be my mistake......

"Beast, come in! Roast delicious gravy~"

In the Taoist temple, Zhou Ting's delicate voice came, although she already knew Lin Yu's identity and name, but Zhou Ting was still called Lin Yu Beast, according to Zhou Ting's words, it was more cordial and there was no generation gap.

Lin Yu glanced at the old Taoist as if inadvertently, at this time, the wind and snow suddenly became urgent, he hesitated slightly, and finally stepped into the Taoist temple. The Taoist temple is almost broken, some places on the wall skin are exposed to the traces of wind and frost, in the center of the Taoist temple, a small main hall, placed the statue of the god that has been sealed by the years, under the statue of the god is piled up in a square, a group of beautiful young girls are resting their feet at the moment to roast the fire, and the delicious smell of meat wafts from the hall.

Same......

As if carved out of a mold, the layout of the Taoist temple, even the crooked position of some god statues, and the places where the spider webs were scattered all over the place, were exactly the same as the Taoist temple that Lin Yu entered a month ago, except that the Taoist temple he entered when he first entered was eight thousand miles away from here.

Suddenly looking back, Lin Yu found that the old Taoist priest had returned to the side room in the collapsed corner with the oil lamp, Lin Yu's dark eyes moved slightly, ready to step forward to take a look, at this time Zhou Ting next to him suddenly pulled him down, Zhou Ting stood in front of her pretty, and the breath of youth and beauty came to her nose.

"Where's your wine, beast?"

Zhou Ting stretched out her white and tender palm and said with a smile at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu nodded, didn't say anything, took out three bottles of burning knives from the cloud piercing bag and gave them to Zhou Ting, his eyes moved slightly, and then strode towards the side hall next to him, the wind and snow were miserable, and the roaring wind and snow were like demons dancing their teeth and claws.

Lin Yu came to the window and looked at it, but found that in the dilapidated and dilapidated house, the oil lamp was burning, but the house was empty and deserted.

Lin Yu turned around, only to find that the old Taoist priest with a red face was staring at him with a gentle face, and asked with a heart-warming drizzle greeting in his tone.

Lin Yu was really heartbeat, this old way was really like a ghost, he ran behind him without a sound, and startled him, fortunately, he was tenacious, and instantly suppressed the panic in his heart, a smile was outlined at the corner of his mouth, and he nodded: "I'm here to apologize for the rudeness just now, like the Taoist chief." ”

Lao Dao smiled kindly, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, who hasn't recognized the wrong person? ”

"In that case, thank you for the magnanimity of the Taoist, I still have friends waiting for me, and the Taoist boy is one step ahead. This old Taoist priest looks harmless to humans and animals, very approachable, Lin Yu in front of him, looking at his kind face, he will always feel an inexplicable uneasiness, this uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger, Lin Yu hurriedly proposed to say goodbye, and hurriedly walked away.

The old Taoist priest looked at Lin Yu's back, shook his head silently, and his figure stepped directly through the wall.

"Brother Lin, why did you go and come now?"

He Donglai handed Lin Yu a piece of roasted meat and asked suspiciously.

Lin Yu shook his head and was silent for a long time, Lin Yu suddenly asked, "Brother Donglai, you seem to have known about this Taoist temple for a long time, could it be that you have been here a long time ago?"

He Donglai shook his head and said: "In the past, I was chasing an enemy, and I passed by here once, and I found that there was a Taoist temple here, but because I was eager to chase the enemy, I didn't come in. ”

Lin Yu nodded clearly, and continued to ask, "Brother Donglai, when did you last pass by when you saw this Taoist temple, and was it also at night?"

He Donglai nodded without hesitation and said: "Yes, it was at night, I remember this very clearly, I still remember that the night was even darker, I saw this place brightly lit, only to know that there was a Taoist temple standing here, and I remembered it more deeply because of curiosity." ”

"Oh~"

Lin Yu said perfunctorily, and he was silent again.

He Donglai looked at Lin Yu's strange expression, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Lin, I saw that you have been full of worries since you have been encountering the Taoist Temple, what is wrong with you?"

Lin Yu raised his head, those deep eyes, and asked, "Tell me, do you think this Taoist temple is normal?"

It seemed that he didn't expect Lin Yu to ask such a question, He Donglai said with a somewhat strange expression: "Except for appearing in the surrounding desert, I haven't found any strange places in the rest, Lin Yu, are you too suspicious?"

"Too suspicious?"

Lin Yu asked himself, a trace of bitterness appeared at the corner of his mouth. (To be continued......)
