It was completely dark.

The small Taoist temple located at the bottom of the cliff is like a fierce beast secretly watching its prey, silently opening its black mouth wide.

The snow falling on the eaves is as bright as day under the moonlight, and it is glaring for no reason as far as the eye can see.

Towering trees stand tall around the temple, spreading their branches towards the sky beyond. The cliff wind rolled wildly, and rolled in through the wall that was neither high nor low, and screamed and beat at the window of the small room.

The windows of both rooms rattled, and from time to time a cold breeze poured in.

Guo Wei grew up in the Taoist temple since he was a child, and he is used to the four seasons here, and he is also used to such cold and harshness.

So the strange wind didn't disturb her at all, and after tossing and turning for a while, she quietly hugged Zhao Fuling's arm, leaned on Zhao Fuling's shoulder and fell asleep.

The little girl who looks good-natured is actually a clingy little milk cat.

The appearance is well-behaved, the sleeping posture is quiet, and the round face still has a little baby fat that has not completely faded.

Although the climate is harsh and the life is simple, it can be seen that the Lord has raised this little girl very well.

Zhao Fuling didn't feel sleepy, turned her head to look at her, and didn't withdraw her hand, only bent her lower lip shallowly.

The cliff wind came extremely violently, like some kind of monster waving its teeth and claws through the doors and windows, which made people's hearts inexplicably disturbed.

Zhao Fuling turned her head and looked at it, but she didn't see anything, she only felt that it was a little too dark outside.

The two of them were huddled together, and the quilt was also warm, Guo Wei was already asleep, and Zhao Fuling also closed her eyes and tried to pretend to be asleep.

In a daze, she seemed to be asleep, but she never seemed to be asleep. I only heard some babbling sound in my ears, like someone whispering, and like someone singing in a distant place.

Disturbed by such a sound all night, Zhao Lingling didn't sleep much at all, and only felt a splitting headache. c

She frowned in her sleep, and it took a long time before she struggled to open her eyes.

It was already dark, and the room was bright.

Guo Xu got up early, and his surroundings were empty, and even the quilt was cold.

Zhao Fuling turned over, feeling some sticky fine sweat in her palms, and her whole body was not happy. She clenched her fist and touched her forehead with the back of her hand, noticing that it was hot.

It is estimated that it is too cold at the bottom of this cliff, and I have a cold when the cold wind blows last night.

After lying down for a while, Zhao Fuling struggled to get up.

Since her physique has been enhanced, she has not had a headache and brain fever like ordinary people for a long time, and she feels a little top-heavy for the first time in a long time.

After putting on her clothes and shoes, Zhao Fuling pulled her hair up, got up and went to pull the door.

Although it was bright outside, the sky was a little gray, as if it was going to snow.

The yard is still dilapidated and depressed, but unlike yesterday, it is extremely cold and quiet at this time.

Quiet to ...... It was as if she was the only one left in heaven and earth.

Zhao Fuling glanced around and looked at the next room. The door of the house was closed, and no sound could be heard, indicating that Shen Chi and the others were not inside.

She looked at the main hall dedicated to Sanqing, where no new incense candles were lit, as if the watcher was in a hurry to go out and forgot about it.

Zhao Fuling stood at the door for a moment, walked down the steps, and said in a raised voice, "Guo Xun?"

No one answered.

Zhao Fuling walked a few steps in the direction of the main hall, and shouted again, "Shen Gongzi? Ah Yue?"

There was still no one answering, and her voice echoed in the empty space in the huge Taoist temple. Like a fallen leaf, it spun out of the wall and went farther away.

Zhao Fuling's eyes drooped and pursed her lips slightly.

She looked back at the deserted main hall and walked towards the gate, where as soon as she opened it, it began to snow like goose feathers in the sky.

The fluttering snowflakes covered all her sight, and Zhao Fuling raised her eyes and found that the road she came from was gone.

Everything is vast and blurred, and the surrounding mountains have become steep and steep cliffs. Those towering trees, those

The graceful branches, like a woven net, are wrapped around the cliff, firmly surrounding the entire Taoist temple.

At that moment, Zhao Lingling somehow suddenly felt that she couldn't get out.

She was like a weak moth, trapped in this impenetrable cocoon.

It's about to dawn.

Shen Chi and Ah Yue didn't sleep all night, looking at the Xuanxu Daoist who was sitting on the futon.

Xuanxu Dao Chief's face was pale and sweating profusely at this time, and he had never gotten up since he sat down like this at night.

The two of them didn't know what was going on, just looking at the surface, everything was calm.

But Ah Yue couldn't help but clench his hands and look at the table worriedly.

The three rows of candles were already half burning, and the table was filled with solidified wax.

But there was no movement in the next room, and the Xuanxu Daoist didn't speak all night, and I don't know how Miss Zhao is doing now.

He cautiously peeked at Shen Chi, and when he saw Shen Chi's face and eyes half-closed, Ah Yue hurriedly withdrew his gaze.

After a few moments, there was finally a sound in the next room.

Someone pulled the door open.

Ah Yue hurriedly straightened up, opened the door and ran out.

The person who came out was Guo Xun, and she still didn't look like she had woken up. Hearing the movement next door, he turned his head to look at Ah Yue, rubbed his eyes and said, "Morning!"

Ah Yue looked behind her and asked, "What about Miss Zhao?"

"Sister Zhao is still sleeping." Guo Wei yawned and said, "It's cold and broken in our Taoist temple, and the bed is still small, so she seems to have fallen asleep late last night."

Ah Yue quietly breathed a sigh of relief, he looked back at the room and found that Shen Chi was also looking at this side.

Probably hearing the conversation here, the corners of Shen Chi's lips moved, he didn't say anything, and looked into the room again.

Guo Xun followed and asked, "Where is my master?"

Xuanxu Dao Chang slowly opened his eyes and let out a sigh, "I'm here."

Guo Wei looked around the room, saw the whole row of candles on the table, frowned inexplicably, and then said, "Master, what are you doing?"

Xuanxu Dao stood up, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and said with a smile, "Do something for General Shen/Jun." You girl, why did you get up so early today?"

"I'll get some food for Sister Zhao." After Guo Wei finished speaking, he looked at Shen Chi again, and then turned around and left.

Xuanxu Dao Chang looked at her back, and after the others had completely left, he lowered his voice and said to Shen Chi, "This girl is young, and it is the time when the facts have to be debated in black and white. Don't tell her about these things."

Of course, Shen Chi would rather have more than one less, so he nodded.

After the Xuanxu Daoist straightened up his clothes, he looked at the two-thirds candle that was lit and asked, "Dao Chief, when will Ah Ling wake up?"

The Xuanxu Daoist also glanced at the candles, then at the sky outside, and said, "Around a quarter of noon."

"As long as Miss Zhao wakes up then, this will be done."
