There were people on the bus, and everyone was looking for their seats. Lin Xi looked at his seat number, it was 13F, the location was by the window, and it was not bad to see the scenery all the way.

Because it was a weekday, the bus was not crowded. The passengers are mainly students who have just taken a vacation, office workers who are on a business trip, and the elderly who have retired.

"Hello, where is this seat at 13E?" Suddenly, a light voice came to my ear. Lin Xi turned his head to take a look and found a girl in ancient costume. Has Hanfu become so popular lately? But I didn't expect anyone to be so suitable for wearing Hanfu, probably a model or an actor or something.

She was wearing a light green full-breasted wide-sleeved dress and sleeved shirt, her hair was made into a delicate hanging bun, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, but there seemed to be a hint of loneliness, there was a pattern on her forehead dotted with cinnabar, and her lips were clear, as if stained with roses from morning dew. There is a faint red powder under the fair skin, and there is a feeling that the powder is too white, and Shi Zhu is too red.

"13E, are you sure?" Lin Xi looked up at the mark on the seat number, there was indeed no 13E, and there seemed to be only 13D and 13F on the high-speed rail. Later, I found out that her ticket was indeed written with 13E, so it couldn't be a system printing error.

"I don't think there's such a seat. Lin Xi smiled bitterly, "The train is about to depart, and there is no one sitting on 13D, you can sit next to me first." Ask the flight attendant in a moment. ”

"Okay, thank you. As soon as she sat down, the train started to start.

"Are you going to Yingtan too?" In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Lin Xi then asked.

"Yes, Master told us to meet there, but I got separated from everyone. They had just entered the pit stop together, and in the blink of an eye, I was left alone. She shook her head and smiled helplessly.

"Maybe they're in another car. ”

A moment of silence ensued. That's what chatting with strangers is. But is there anyone still called Master this year, it seems that this girl is very deep in the play. Lin Xi didn't think much about it, closed his eyes and continued to rest. After a few stops, we arrived at the place.

"Then I'm leaving, thank you. This etiquette may seem a bit formal or out of place. However, Lin Xi still smiled slightly in response.

————————————

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xi found the bus to Longhu Mountain and went straight to the destination, Shangqing Palace. In fact, Lin Xi came here once when he was young, and that time he came to travel with his parents and sisters, and met an old man who suddenly fainted on the way. In desperation, his father, who knew a little about medicine, used cardiopulmonary resuscitation to successfully delay the ambulance and save the old man's life. After the old man recovered, he said that he was a Taoist priest on the mountain, so he gave an amulet as a thank you gift. Although the purpose of saving people is not to repay, this kind of stingy behavior has been talked about by my mother for a long time. Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't help but smile, and this talisman Lin Xi had been carrying with him. But for some reason, the state of the runes seems to be unstable lately, and it seems to glow faintly at night. Could it be that the ink of the runes was mixed with fluorescent dyes at that time? I was a little curious, so I came all the way to take a look.

After entering the Shangqing Palace, he soon found the figure of the old man in a courtyard in the back mountain. Despite the passage of many years, the old man's body still seems to be very strong, and he can be seen sweeping the floor in the yard from afar. After entering the courtyard, I saw an old man with kind eyebrows, and there was a feeling of fairy wind and bones in his gestures.

"Xiaolin, you're here. The old man turned around and said kindly.

"Hmm. It's been a long time, how are you doing?"

"Old bones, it looks like they can live for a few more years. ”

"The so-called knowers enjoy the water, and the benevolent people enjoy the mountains; Those who know move, and those who are benevolent are quiet; Those who know are happy, and those who are benevolent are long. Old man, a cultivator like you must be a benevolent person. ”

"Hahaha. Is there anything going on this time?" said the old man straight to the point.

"It's nothing. Actually, it's a bit of a trivial matter. Look at this. Lin Xi took out the talisman and handed it to the old man. "This piece of paper seems to have been a bit of a flickering and unstable feeling lately, which makes it difficult to feel at ease. “

"Oh. Let me see. The old man closed his slightly cloudy eyes and felt it. "It's not a delusion. It seems that the concentration of aura has not been very stable recently. ”

"Huh, do you mean the change in the activity of fluorescent dyes?" Lin Xi saw the old man's serious expression, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"Don't talk nonsense. The old man sighed and said leisurely, "Has this day finally arrived?"

"Keep this rune. It hasn't lapsed yet. Then the old man removed a black piece of jewelry from his neck. For an old man wearing jewelry, Lin Xi felt incredible. Maybe this is something important to the old man and his part. "Take this. I think you seem to have a great evil phenomenon recently, and whether you can turn evil into good fortune depends on your creation. ”

I'll go. Lin Xi couldn't help but curse in his heart. Is there such a curse? We are all atheists who firmly believe in Marxism, and I believe that you Taoist priests are just joking. It's like many girls in the class like to talk about horoscopes and even play tarot cards. But whether the result is good or bad, it is a good laugh.

"How can I take such a valuable thing casually?" When I got closer, it turned out to be made of obsidian, and it was ice obsidian. This old man is confused.

"My mother doesn't seem to be happy with the gift I gave back then. Just take this. I'm still very rich, old man. Under the repeated persuasion of the old man, Lin Xi finally accepted the gift. Subsequently, he also stuffed Lin Xi with a few packets of medicinal herbs, which were said to be planted by himself and could strengthen his body. Lin Xi didn't think much about it, chatted a little bit, and left here.

The time is close to dusk, the evening breeze is blowing slowly, the sunset is slowly falling, and the front seems to be the ruins of the hanging coffin group, go over and take a look. It is said that it was the ancient craftsmen who used some knowledge of physics to put the coffin into a cave on the cliff face with a lever and rope. Some of the caves are as high as 300 meters, and even modern people can't figure out how to do it. Maybe I will also be a craftsman in the future, Lin Xi watched the sunset and smiled slightly. If it's a craftsman who can perform such a miracle, that doesn't seem to be a bad thing.

At this moment, a white bright spot slowly slipped through the sky, was it an airplane? No, it looked like a meteor. By the way, there's an Aquariid meteor shower tonight. But the bright spot seems to be getting bigger and bigger, and the roar of friction against the air is faintly heard, and I go. People say that the probability of being hit by a meteor is smaller than winning the lottery jackpot, is my luck so bad? Although I tried my best to run down the mountain, I was still one step late. "Boom-" The meteorite smashed directly in front of Lin Xi, and the rolled up gravel was about to hit Lin Xi's body, at this time, the rune paper on his body emitted a bright light, forming a transparent enchantment, so it barely blocked the impact of the gravel. However, the caused air wave blew Lin Xi off the cliff, and in mid-air, Lin Xi seemed to see the jewelry on his chest flicker, and then he passed out.

————————————

I don't know how long I fell asleep, Lin Xi suddenly woke up, but it was noon. I touched my whole body up and down, and it seemed that the bones, internal organs, and head were fine. Looking around, I saw an elm forest, and I couldn't find the shadow of the cliff at all, and it was not a good thing to get lost in the mountains, how far was this blown away. Anyway, this rune paper is really useful. It's incredible, I can't be dreaming, Lin Xi couldn't help pinching his face.

Walking further into the woods, I heard the murmuring of the river and the chirping of birds in the forest, and it was really a leisurely noon. "Da-" This seems to be the sound of a Go player, finally see people?

Lin Xi ran over happily, only to see two old men playing chess. An old man dressed in white, his face calm, exuding an aura of inaccessibility. Another old man, dressed in black, was lazily reclining on the grass, with a sly expression. The two of them did not react to Lin Xi's arrival, and Lin Xi did not bother, standing aside and glancing at the chess game slightly. The old man in white seemed to be intent on stopping it, but it seemed to be a step too late, and Lin Xi seemed to be in some kind of thinking, motionless, his eyes blank. The old man sighed and continued to hold his son.

Lin Xi himself only knew a little about Go, but just by taking a look, he fell into a very real illusion. Lin Xi seemed to see the ancient battlefield, where death and killing were everywhere. A group of white-clothed immortals and a group of black-clothed immortals are engaged in a brutal war, and it seems that either you die or I die. The white-clothed side looks like a human being, while the black-clothed side seems to be a mixed bag. Among them are humans, vampires, ghosts, beasts, and even zombies. The commander of the black side waved the battle flag and commanded the actions of the army in an orderly manner, but just as the war was at its most intense, the commander of the black side was attacked by his own people. Then there was chaos on the battlefield, and White took the opportunity to harvest a large part of Black's power, and finally narrowed the encirclement and imposed a seal, sealing the Man in Black forever. However, before the seal, the boss of the man in black turned into two streamers, one flew into the sky, and seemed to disappear. The other bundle turned into a black sword and flew towards the jewelry around Lin Xi's neck.

After that, it was like watching a long movie, and Lin Xi suddenly returned to reality. And the two old men who played chess seemed to be no longer here, and Lin Xi himself returned to the gate of Shangqing Palace again.

This sudden change makes people feel like they are in a different world, but with it comes frequent vibrations and message reminders from the phone. 99+ unread messages, 99+ missed calls. What's going on, is the phone broken? But when Lin Xi took a closer look at the date, he found that more than a month had passed, and the summer vacation was coming to an end the day after tomorrow. Then he glanced at the contents of the unread messages and missed calls, and the results were all from his sister Lin Yue.

Lin Xi was a little confused, it seemed that he had really disappeared for a summer vacation. What's going on? There is indeed a saying that there is a day in heaven and a year on earth. But isn't this superstition? But with so many unbelievable things happening today, it seems that nothing is strange. Maybe he met an immortal, Lin Xi was convinced of this.

On the other hand, the two old men in the secret realm still continued the unfinished chess game, but the old man in white said lightly: "The qualifications of this cliff keeper are okay, and under this strong soul impact, he actually persevered for a month. ”

"Yes, it seems that I still have a chance in this chess game. The old man in black nodded.
