256. Darkness covers all things

Lanruo Temple, Daxiong Treasure Hall.

The incense that used to be prosperous is now dilapidated, and it is really impermanent.

In the center of the main hall, a bonfire was burning, and Yan Chixia was boiling wine and roasting steamed buns.

If it had been left in the past, his behavior would have been suppressed under the Fumo Tower.

But now, not to mention the Demon Tower, even the Relic Pagoda is gone.

Ning Caichen sat by the fire, trying not to look at the pot of wine, let alone the steamed buns.

However, the smell of wheat and wine kept drilling into his nose.

Moreover, this aroma seemed to be pervasive, and Ning Caichen felt that even if he held his breath and didn't breathe, it would be useless.

Yan Chixia looked at the tormented scholar and felt a little funny.

At this moment, Ye Yuan walked in with a few small squares wrapped in lotus leaves, and took the initiative to say to Yan Chixia.

"Yan Daxia, borrow a fire."

"Feel free to do it!"

Ye Yuan smiled gratefully at him, sat next to Ning Caichen, and didn't open the lotus leaf, just put it on the side of the fire and simmered.

Ning Caichen felt that Yan Chixia's gaze was no longer just looking at him, and he was very relieved, but the alluring aroma went straight to the depths of his soul, and at this moment, tears were about to leave from the corners of his mouth.

Fortunately, years of hard study have honed his concentration, but in order not to lose his temper, he had to divert his attention and take the initiative to talk to Ye Yuan.

"Brother Gu, when are you going to go to the capital?"

Keywords: go to the capital.

Ye Yuan kept it in his heart and said helplessly.

"Alas, the entanglement on my body is exhausted, and I have to wait for the trip to the capital, I want to be a doctor here and earn some money before leaving."

The word no money, Ning Caichen is very resonant, after all, he is also penniless.

However, Ning Caichen thought of Ye Yuan, who had a skill, and then thought about himself, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

"Alas, it's better to be Brother Gu, with a skill, you can make a living anywhere, unlike Xiaosheng, who has no power to tie the chicken, and there is no way to make a living."

Ning Caichen's self-pity, Ye Yuan didn't take it seriously, after all... Scholars, no matter how they look on the outside, they are always arrogant in their bones.

Ye Yuan just patted Ning Caichen's shoulder and comforted him gently.

"Why is Brother Ning so depressed, the title of his daily gold list is the right way."

Ning Caichen nodded heavily, the idea of the imperial examination in his heart was even better than in the past, and he said with a straight face.

"Thank you Brother Gu for your enlightenment."

"Pedantic!"

Ning Caichen glanced at Yan Chixia, who was full of disgust, and felt a little embarrassed.

Ye Yuan didn't care, and took the hot rice balls to share with the two.

Yan Chixia did not refuse, and shared steamed buns and rice wine with the two.

Of course, Ning Caichen was thin-skinned, and although he was tortured by smelling the fragrance, he still refused politely.

But no matter how hard-mouthed a person is, he can't escape the law of true fragrance.

Under Ye Yuan's repeated persuasion, Ning Caichen still had enough to eat, and after this experience, the three of them successfully got closer.

At the same time, Ye Yuan knocked on the side and pulled out some information from Ning Caichen's mouth.

According to him, Ye Yuan went to the capital to seek refuge with his relatives this time, and he didn't know more specifics.

It's not surprising to think about it, the two of them only met yesterday, and Ning Caichen must know very little.

Actually, this information is not too important.

Because... Ye Yuan just needs to follow the task, and there is no problem whether he goes to the capital or not.

After eating breakfast, Yan Chixia got up and left, he was about to catch up on sleep, and after a pause, he still warned.

"Scholar, and you kid, for the sake of your nature is not bad, Dao Ye will solemnly warn you again, Lanruo Temple is not clean, you better leave quickly, don't stay overnight."

After Yan Chixia finished speaking, she didn't care how they reacted, and went to rest by herself.

Seeing that Yan Chixia said so solemnly, Ning Caichen's face was a little unnatural, and he couldn't help but approach Ye Yuan and ask.

"Brother Gu, this place won't be really haunted."

This kind of thing, what can Ye Yuan say, he has to say.

"Maybe!"

Ning Caichen's body shook and said strongly.

"Zi is silent, strange and confused, there are no ghosts in this world."

Ye Yuan was noncommittal, and he didn't persuade him.

After all, Ning Caichen is a poor scholar who is powerless, even if he leaves the demon cave of Lanruo Temple, where can he go.

And is it really safe outside?

Sometimes, people are more terrible than demons.

Ye Yuan patted the dust on his body and walked out.

Ning Caichen saw that there was almost one person left, and he felt a little scared inexplicably, and hurriedly asked.

"Brother Gu, where are you going?"

Ye Yuan didn't look back, waved his hand and replied.

"Collect medicine, hunt."

As he spoke, the person had already walked out of Lanruo Temple.

Leaving Ning Caichen alone, looking at the empty and lonely temple, his body was inexplicably chilled.

He sat back by the fire, shivering.

"This mountain... It's so quiet! ”

Ye Yuan walked away and found that there were no living creatures on this mountain except flowers and trees, not even snakes, insects, rats and ants.

The trees were unusually luxuriant, and it should have been a scene of life, but the mountains seemed empty, and the silence was terrible, and it was very strange.

"I don't know how Ning Caichen dared to live in? How daring! ”

Ye Yuan walked all the way down the mountain, but suddenly heard a "boom", and then the mountain shook for a while.

Then, dark clouds completely obscured the sun, and the whole mountain was completely plunged into darkness.

"What's going on? What a strong momentum. ”

Ye Yuan's brows were tightly locked, and there was an urge to run away in his heart.

However, when he looked down the mountain, darkness covered everything, and he could see nothing.

At this moment, he heard Tang Yuehua's warning, his face changed greatly, not only did he not continue to go down the mountain and rush out, but instead ran up, all the way back to Lanruo Temple.

Ning Caichen also noticed that something was wrong, and shouted with a panicked face.

"Oh no... Yan Daxia, the tengu has eaten the sun. ”

Yan Chixia also felt that something was wrong, and immediately rushed out, looking up at the sky, her face was very nervous, but she still didn't forget to retort.

"Nonsense, this is a vision of a great demon appearing in the world."

"Ahh

Ning Caichen was really scared and moved to Yan Chixia's side.

At this moment, Ye Yuan ran in and said to Yan Chixia.

"Yan Daxia, it's not good, the whole mountain is blocked, and we can't get out."

Yan Chixia's face became even heavier, glared at Ning Caichen, who was about to hide behind him, and said.

"Scholar, you didn't leave when you were asked to leave, but now it's okay, you can't leave."

Ning Caichen was even more flustered when he heard this, but he suddenly realized that something was wrong and asked curiously.

"Yan Daxia, why don't you talk about Brother Gu."

This Ning Caichen... If you want to take him with you when you are scolded, you are really blind to his delicious rice balls!

The corners of Ye Yuan's mouth twitched, and he felt that he should have starved Ning Caichen to death before.

"It's Dao Ye who has looked away, and the speed at which Brother Gu ran back just now is not something that ordinary mortals can do."

Ye Yuan smiled bitterly.

"Well, even if it's fast, it's not like I'm stuck here."

Ning Caichen looked at Ye Yuan, who looked like an ordinary person, with a look of disbelief.

I don't believe that the ordinary person who talked to him before is actually a powerful master.
