Since the founding of Emperor Taizu, Nanjing has become a prosperous market, densely populated, Lin Palace, and Biwa Zhuyong after more than 200 years of construction.

On the Qinhuai River, boats and drums are painted, day and night.

When there is rain, there are rippling green waves on the Qinhuai River.

Refurbished oil-paper umbrellas, gaudy skirts, and beautiful flowers, did you go to the evening cuddle, or peach leaves?

The gentlemen of the past, did they get off the horse at Wende Bridge, or did they sell wine in Bailuzhou?

Du Wenlin wandered on the banks of the Qinhuai River, with a slight rain floating on his head, listening to the pleasant sound of the piano from the painting boat in the river, and his heart was full of the freshness of arriving in the metropolis for the first time.

"Wild grass and flowers by the Vermilion Bird Bridge, and the sunset at the mouth of Wuyi Alley." I couldn't help but reiterate.

"The weeds are still there, where is the sunset?" Someone next to him suddenly said.

Turning his head, a man wearing a square scarf, a blue suit, and holding a folding fan looked at him with a smile.

"The sunset is not there, the rain is drifting, what is the use of your folding fan?" Du Wenlin pointed to his folding fan.

After saying that, the two couldn't help laughing.

"May I ask your high name?" The other party saluted.

"No, the surname is Du, the name is Wenlin." Du Wenlin returned the salute.

"Xiao Ke's surname is Lin, and his name is Fengsheng."

"Brother Lin is also here to prepare for the exam?"

"Yes, my hometown, Pei County, Xuzhou, has been coming to Nanjing for more than half a month."

"I'm from Wu County, Suzhou, and I just arrived in the afternoon, so it's not that I haven't had time to find a place to stay."

"Since Brother Tai is also a person of the same generation, and it is late today, if you don't dislike it, you can simply come to our place for one night, and it is not too late to find a place to live tomorrow."

Du Wenlin looked up at the sky, it was already dark as he spoke, and the painting boat on the river had already picked up a lantern.

It's not easy to find a place to live at this time.

"Then thank you, Brother Lin!"

Lin Fengsheng's residence was in a small inn near the river, and the lights were already on in the store at this time.

When he came to the room on the second floor, Du Wenlin unloaded his luggage, asked Xiao Er for a basin of water, and cleaned his hands.

After dinner, the two chatted for a while about the syllabus of this year's exam, and then read separately across the table with an oil lamp.

On a full moon night, a bright moon hung obliquely in the eastern sky, and the moonlight shone through the window on the ground in front of the window, and the silvery-white light overshadowed the bean-like light.

Lin Fengsheng stretched his waist and said:

"The hour does not know the moon,

Called a white jade plate.

and suspicious Yaotai mirror,

Fly in the blue clouds. ”

Du Wenlin sighed:

"I didn't feel that I had been out for more than a month, and I missed the second elder in the family very much!"

Lin Fengsheng smiled and rubbed his neck:

"The line in the mother's hand, the wanderer's shirt. Which wanderer is homesick again? ”

Du Wensheng looked at his white and red neck, and suddenly a strange feeling rose in his heart.

It was the feeling of a hungry wolf in a snowy wasteland suddenly seeing its prey.

Hungry, I can't wait to pounce on it and bite it immediately.

No, it's not just the desire to fill your stomach, it's the smell of blood in your nose.

The smell doesn't have the fishiness of blood, but is more tempting than any delicacy in the world.

The smell came from the young man opposite.

Looking at his neck, Du Wenlin felt his eyes heat and his throat tightened.

This feeling came suddenly, caught off guard, and even began to heat up all over the body.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, was he not full for dinner?

But even if I got lost in the mountains and starved for days, I didn't feel like this.

Shaking to his feet, he walked to the back of the door and washed his face with cold water twice, trying to suppress the heat on his body.

However, the deep desire for blood did not decrease in the slightest, but intensified.

He turned his head and stared at Lin Fengsheng, who was reading, and tried his best to control his impulses.

Suddenly, Lin Fengsheng fell on the table and fell asleep.

At the same time, the door opened without wind, and Sanniang suddenly appeared in front of her.

Before he could speak, Sanniang had already stretched out her white and slender fingers and put them on his neck.

In an instant, Du Wenlin felt the heat in his body go down.

The hand was as cold as jade, but it had a soothing magic.

Sanniang reflexively closed the door, pulled him to the edge of the bed and sat down.

"Sanniang, what happened to me just now? Suddenly I felt very, I had never felt like this before. Du Wenlin has no strangeness to Sanniang, and even feels that she is his own mother.

"Not only is I hungry, but I want to suck blood, right?" Sanniang smiled and said softly.

Du Wenlin nodded.

"I once told you that after ordinary people are transfused with our blood, they will have symptoms of bloodthirstiness. That's what you're showing up right now. ”

When Du Wenlin heard this, he seemed to understand the reason for the abnormality in his body just now:

"Did I just want to suck Brother Lin's blood?"

"Your symptoms now are the same as those of the six girls in the inn that night."

Seeing Du Wenlin's look of annoyance, Sanniang continued:

"Both Buddhism and Taoism pay attention to cultivation, and the so-called cultivation is the process of polishing one's heart. Slowly expel the greed and hatred in your heart, and cultivate to a certain level, so that you can achieve freedom from the red dust and selflessness. Du Wenlin also understands what Sanniang said, he has read the Tao Te Ching and has been in contact with the Buddhist scriptures.

She smiled, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said softly:

"What we cultivate is also the polishing of the heart, indifferent to fame and fortune, self-cultivation, and self-cultivation, so that we can be in harmony with the yin and yang of all things in heaven and earth, so that we can completely drive away the control of the heart demon on the body and return to normal."

Du Wenlin looked at Lin Fengsheng, lying on the table and still asleep.

Sanniang smiled again:

"He can't wake up for the time being, so rest assured."

"Why did he fall asleep all of a sudden?"

"I hypnotized him with my mind, whether it is our race or ordinary people, when the cultivation reaches a certain height, the spirit can detach from the physical body and affect others. Of course, this also requires time and perseverance, and the other party's conditions are not strong enough to be hypnotized. ”

Du Wenlin is very envious of this ability, but he also knows that this is not a height that ordinary people can reach.

"At the same time, there is another reason why you are in this situation tonight, the concentration of blood belonging to our race in your body is not enough, this kind of blood is different from the blood of ordinary people, it is unique to us, and bears the mark of our ancestors." She explained.

Seeing that Du Wenlin looked ignorant, he smiled and said:

"Now I'll teach you the meditation method and the secrets of cultivation."

Du Wenlin sat cross-legged and practiced according to the mental method and mantra taught by Sanniang.

He is gifted and intelligent, and after one time, he has memorized it by heart.

Sanniang saw that Du Wenlin had almost remembered it, and said softly:

"Child, you come here, I'll give you some blood." As he spoke, he stretched out his arm.

"How do you give me blood?" Du Wenlin was really curious.

"I'm going to have to bite the blood in your neck first, and then I'll bite the tip of my tongue and get the blood into your body through the tip of my tongue."

I didn't expect that she would have to make such a big sacrifice in order to cross her blood, Du Wenlin's eyes were a little moist.

Involuntarily moved over and snuggled up to her.

Sanniang ruffled the hair from his neck, and her lips slowly approached his skin.

Du Wenlin's nose was filled with a strange aroma, and he was drowsy. The soft lips kissed on the neck, and a cool liquid slowly injected into the body, which was extremely comfortable.

It's like being in a beautiful garden, full of flowers and a gentle breeze. Under the clear sky, a few small birds fly freely.

Stretch out your arms and enjoy the warmth of this refreshing heart。。。。。。

When the sun shone into the house through the window, Du Wenlin and Lin Fengsheng woke up from their deep sleep.

Lin Fengsheng found himself lying on the bed and wondered:

"I was looking at a book last night and suddenly fell asleep, was it Brother Du who moved me to the bed?"

Du Wenlin smiled and did not answer.

Reaching out and touching his neck, it was smooth, leaving only the warm memory of last night.

"There is a hole in the mountain, which is inaccessible, and the hole is like the palace of the king, so it is called the king's house." This is the origin of the name of Wangwu Mountain.

Wangwu Mountain is located in the northwest of Henan, with Taihang Mountain in the east, Zhongtiao Mountain in the west, Taiyue in the north, and the Yellow River in the south.

It is said that the existence of Wangwu Mountain was specially built by the ancient Xuanyuan clan in order to worship the heavens.

The mountain of Wangwu Mountain is undulating and changeable, steep and magnificent.

In the depths of the mountains, there is an unknown small peak, and under the peak there is a lush primeval forest, and there is a small hole in the cover of the forest, and in the depths of the cave there is a huge cave world.

The walls of the cave are lit with perennial mackerel oil lamps, and many stone cave rooms have been carved out of the walls.

At the end of the cave is a rotunda with a tall old man with a white beard and white hair sitting at the head of the hall.

He gazed majestically at the dozen or so people standing solemnly below.

After a long time, he spoke:

"For thousands of years, although we 'Night Clans' have not been able to live under the sun like ordinary humans, our bloodline has been passed down, relying on what? It does not rely on fighting with them for power, and it does not rely on fighting and killing them. We rely on prudence and indisputability. It is by making them not feel threatened by us that we are left with room to survive. After a pause, he took a breath:

"And our Ying family can not only live in harmony with other families, but there has never been a dispute with ordinary humans."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to a middle-aged man with a thin face:

"According to the pigeon letter report from outside, the triplets who live at the foot of Yanshan are greedy for the Huahua world outside, not only breaking out to walk the rivers and lakes, but also joining a sect organization called 'Red Seal Sect', Win Long, is there such a thing?"

The middle-aged man was sincerely frightened, and replied in a trembling voice:

"Grandpa, it is indeed because the younger generation is not strict in discipline that these three rebels came out."

The white-haired old man sighed:

"Alas! You are not ignorant of our ancestral teachings and family rules, and you also know how much danger this will bring to our race. Catch them back as soon as you go back, and discipline them! ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly bowed down and agreed.
