Yan Chixia was indeed kind, because he could see at a glance that Ning Caichen was just a weak scholar, and staying in Lanruo Temple was a lamb to be slaughtered to those goblins and ghosts.

But it's a pity that as an unsociable person, his words are obviously not convincing in Ning Caichen's eyes, and in Ning Caichen's opinion, Yan Chixia herself is not like a good person, so he doesn't believe Yan Chixia's words at all, and with Bai Changsheng here, he also feels very safe, and feels that even if this Lanruo Temple is really unsafe, there are two people, him and Bai Changsheng.

Seeing this, Yan Chixia simply didn't say more, and turned around and left directly, Ning Caichen and Bai Changsheng immediately found two adjacent rooms in the ancient temple and stayed together.

"That bearded man is not a good person at first glance, we have to be careful with him tonight, Brother Bai"

Ning Caichen felt in his heart that Yan Chixia didn't look like a good person, and couldn't help but say after settling down in the ancient temple with Bai Changsheng.

"Brother Ning may have misunderstood, although the Taoist chief has a cold face and an evil mouth, I see him as a righteous person, not like a person who is a big traitor, it is estimated that he has a cold face and a hot heart."

"Since the Taoist chief said that this ancient temple is not safe, it shouldn't be alarmist, Brother Ning still needs to be careful tonight."

Bai Changsheng said with a smile.

However, people's first impression is difficult to change easily, Ning Caichen already felt that Yan Chixia was not a good person through his previous first impression of Yan Chixia, so he didn't believe Bai Changsheng's words very much, and still insisted on his own opinion.

"It's better to be careful, you can't hurt people, but you can't do without the heart of guarding against people, and Brother Bai can't judge lightly."

Bai Changsheng smiled and didn't continue to talk more with Ning Caichen on this topic.

And in a wing room in the depths of the ancient temple, Yan Chixia was also secretly paying attention to Bai Changsheng and Ning Caichen through her divine thoughts, listening to the conversation between the two, listening to Ning Caichen's firm belief that she was not a good person, Yan Chixia was also very unhappy in her heart.

"This stupid scholar is kind enough to treat him as a donkey's liver and lungs, and he deserves to die."

Immediately, his attention fell on Bai Changsheng again, and he wanted to see Bai Changsheng's reality and reality, but he found that Bai Changsheng was like a deep invisible mist, and he couldn't see through it at all with his cultivation of knowing his fate.

Even whether Bai Changsheng was a human or not was actually impossible for him to see, but Bai Changsheng had no demonic aura on his body, but faintly gave him a sense of sacredness that he had never seen before.

"This man?"

Yan Chixia frowned, and couldn't help but guess Bai Changsheng's identity in her heart, but except for being able to judge that Bai Changsheng was not simple, the others were completely foggy.

At this time.

"Rustle~Rustle~"

"Jingle Bell"

Outside the Lanruo Ancient Temple, which ordinary people could not hear, the sound of something crawling quickly on the ground and the swaying sound of jingling bells suddenly sounded, accompanied by a faint smell of blood wafting in the wind.

"The old demon is out again, and this time I don't know which unlucky ghost died."

Hearing this voice, Yan Chixia's eyes suddenly froze, knowing that this was the old tree demon behind the ancient temple who had come out to do evil again.

But he couldn't help it, because the old tree demon's thousand-year-old Taoist cultivation strength was not weaker than him at all, and even if he wanted to make a move, even if he could defeat this old tree demon, he would definitely not be able to kill it, so even if he knew that this old tree demon had done evil over the years, he couldn't stop it, at most, he occasionally tried his best to save some people.

"No, Brother Xiahou!"

But immediately, Yan Chixia's face changed again, and she suddenly thought of Xiahou who had competed with him before, although Xiahou was utilitarian, but after all, he had known each other for more than ten years, and even if he was not a friend, he could be regarded as an old acquaintance.

Moreover, Xiahou, as a martial arts practitioner, has strong qi and blood, and must be the key target of the old tree demon.

The most important thing is that although Xiahou's martial arts are extraordinary, especially in pure swordsmanship, he is almost not much weaker than him, but Xiahou is not a real cultivator after all, just a swordsman in the rivers and lakes, and his real cultivation is not even in the true realm, once he is targeted by the old tree demon, he will definitely die.

Thinking of this, Yan Chixia immediately stepped out, and the whole person flew outside the ancient temple.

Soon found Xiahou by the stream outside the ancient temple, but when he arrived, Xiahou's entire body had been sucked dry, and only a dried corpse remained.

"Brother Ning is from Jinhua, how could he come to Guobei County."

In Lanruo Temple, Bai Changsheng chatted with Ning Caichen.

"I'm here to collect the accounts for Qibao Zhai."

Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed, but he still told Bai Changsheng the reason why he came to Guobei County.

After a conversation, Ning Caichen also told the situation in his family, the original Ning family's family was not bad, but later fell into the middle, and now the old mother in the family is sick and needs medicine money to treat, coupled with the troubled times, Ning Caichen can't find any money to support the family, and finally had to take Qibao Zhai to help come to Guobei County to collect accounts.

"The world is in turmoil, and people's livelihood is difficult."

"Yes, the world is in turmoil, the people's livelihood is difficult, in vain I have been reading sages since I was a child, but now I have nothing to do, and my mother is sick and helpless, I am really useless to be a scholar."

Listening to Bai Changsheng's words, Ning Caichen's face couldn't help but show a look of dejection and confusion.

When he was a child, he read the books of sages and sages since he was a child, determined to gain fame, glorify his ancestors, and rule the world, thinking that as long as he studied hard, he could achieve everything, but now, he couldn't help but be confused.

No matter how much he reads, he is not without success today, and now he is helpless even when his mother is sick.

Ning Caichen even began to wonder if it was useful for him to read so many books.

"Why does Brother Ning say such frustrating words, as the so-called natural talent must be useful, Brother Ning is full of talent, how can it be useless, it's just that he lacks an opportunity to show it."

Ning Caichen shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, just as Bai Changsheng comforted himself, he was helpless even with his mother's medicine money now, so what else could he talk about.

Bai Changsheng continued.

"But if there is such an opportunity to display his talents, Brother Ning thinks, what should I do if I am a scholar?"

When?

Ning Caichen groaned when he heard this, began to think, and then said.

"If there is such an opportunity, my generation of scholars should serve the court and help govern the world."

"What if the king has no way and the dynasty collapses?"

Bai Changsheng asked again.

"This?"

Ning Caichen was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer it, even if he had something in his heart, he felt a big rebellion, which made him a little afraid to say it.

At this time, Bai Changsheng smiled again.

"I don't know if Brother Ning has ever heard these four sentences."

"What?"

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations."

Airplanes~

Ning Caichen was stunned on the spot when he heard this, only to feel as if something had exploded in his mind.

Bai Changsheng's words echoed in his mind for a long time in an instant, and he couldn't calm down.

Seeing this, Bai Changsheng smiled and said no more, got up and returned to the next room, leaving Ning Caichen to think alone.

In this way, until the middle of the night, Ning Caichen couldn't sleep, his mind was full of what Bai Changsheng said, and at this moment, a crisp and pleasant piano sound in his ears floated intermittently from outside, attracting Ning Caichen, and then involuntarily walked out of the room and followed the sound of the piano.

And almost less than half a moment after Ning Caichen walked, the door of Bai Changsheng's room was opened, and a woman with a graceful and enchanting posture, a fair-skinned and charming face, and a snow-white and sexy ketone body looming inside a pink light gauze pushed the door and walked in.

looked at Bai Changsheng with affection.

"Little girl Fluttershy, I have seen Childe, in the previous night, Fluttershy was fortunate to witness Childe, I admired her very much, I couldn't sleep at night, I came to meet Childe, but I begged Childe to be a fellow practitioner, I hope Childe will have mercy."

That translates to that.

The little girl was fortunate enough to see Childe by chance, and she couldn't sleep because of her love, so she came to have a tryst with Childe, willing to be good with Childe's fellow practitioners, and hoped that Childe would love and pity.

To condense it a little more simply-

I'm here to deliver the cannons.
