Chapter 120: Kill one a day

The scholar had clear eyebrows, a bit of bookish air on his body, and was full of sweat, and walked to the front of Lanruo Temple, his eyes were puzzled, and he muttered

"It's strange, this temple occupies a vast area, the courtyard walls are high, I don't know how much money it cost to build, how can it be abandoned like this?"

But he didn't think much of it, pushed open the temple door, and walked inside.

He was really tired from his journey all the way, and he planned to rest from here and continue his journey.

The Buddha hall is built magnificently, but the withered yellow weeds all over the courtyard look like this Buddhist temple is a little dilapidated.

However, in the southeast corner of the courtyard, there is a tall bamboo forest, the bamboo body is dark green, the bamboo leaves are shady, full of vitality, in this autumn day when the grass and leaves fall, it is quite rare, eye-catching.

Ning Caichen felt the tranquility in the temple, and his heart moved.

"Xuezheng holds annual exams in the city, and the rent in the city is very expensive, and I can't afford it.

It's a quiet place, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, so why don't I stay here for a while and review the classics until the annual exams begin?"

Thinking like this, he became more and more moved.

Ning Caichen looked at the withered yellow weeds on the ground, and faintly saw a path among the weeds.

He followed the path and looked to the east of the temple.

"It seems that there are still monks living here. ”

Ning Caichen has decided to stay here until the annual exam if possible.

He is not the owner of this place, he wants to live here, he wants to get the approval of the master.

Ning Caichen carried the bookcase on his back and followed the path to the east of the temple.

The temple is huge and has many courtyards where people can live.

"If you follow the path, you should be able to find the monks who live in the temple. ”

Towards the end of the trail, a path suddenly branched off and led to another courtyard.

The two courtyards next to each other seem to be inhabited. ”

Ning Caichen's expression moved slightly, and he first knocked on the door of a courtyard close to him.

But after knocking for a while, no one came out.

"Aren't people in the house?"

When Ning Caichen was puzzled.

A deep voice came from the side.

"The people who live in this courtyard go out and come back at night. ”

Yan Chixia lives in this courtyard, he is still not dead, he usually looks for the traces of the group of female ghosts outside during the day, and will not come back until the evening.

Ning Caichen heard the voice and turned his head to look at it with a shocked expression.

A handsome young man in a green robe was standing at the door of another courtyard at some point, as if he had been alarmed by his knock on the door and came out to look, but he did not hear the sound of walking or the courtyard door opening.

"Xiaosheng Ning Caichen, I don't know the name of this brother?"

He looked at the young man in front of him with an unearthly temperament, and said respectfully.

"This time it's really Ning Caichen. ”

Song Yuan's eyes moved slightly when he heard Ning Caichen report his name.

Yesterday in front of Ning Caichen, a scholar had already arrived, with a servant.

He was still a little puzzled, how could Ning Caichen have a servant.

Later, I inquired and learned that the person was not Ning Caichen, but a talent from Lanxi, who came to take the annual examination and wanted to save some money by staying in the temple.

"My surname is Song Mingyuan, what's the matter with you?"

"To tell you the truth, I am a scholar who came to take the annual examination, and the rent in the city is expensive and I can't afford it, so I hope to live in the temple for a while. ”

Ning Caichen saw that Song Yuan was not a monk in this temple, but like a Taoist master who practiced in which Taoist temple, he hesitated for a moment, but still said his thoughts.

After that, he added.

"Just reading the scriptures, it will never disturb the rest of the people in the temple. ”

"You can live if you want, I and the people who live in this courtyard are not the owners of the temple, but we have come a little before you.

Just yesterday, a scholar with the same idea as you came and took his servants to live in the courtyard on the west side of the temple. ”

Song Yuan said casually.

"So, thank you Brother Song...... Doubts. ”

Ning Caichen saw that Song Yuan was about the same age as him, and he was about twenty years old, so he wanted to be called Brother Song.

But for some reason, he always felt that Song Yuan was not an ordinary person, and he instinctively changed his words halfway through speaking, calling him Brother Song.

"Hmm. ”

Song Yuan nodded, turned around and went back to the courtyard, without talking to Ning Caichen again.

Ning Caichen also turned around and left with the bookcase on his back, choosing the courtyard.

......

"Ning Caichen came to Lanruo Temple, it seems that the story of A Chinese Ghost Story is about to happen. ”

In the room, Song Yuan's eyes were slightly condensed.

It is estimated that in the next few days, he will face Grandma Yaksha and others with Yan Chixia.

In the more widely recognized version of the story in the previous life, the 'grandma' who controls Nie Xiaoqian and the female ghosts is a dryad.

But in fact, in the original story, 'Grandma' seems to be a flying yaksha.

But......

In the original story, there was no mural of 'Grandma' leading the female ghosts to chase Ning Caichen, Nie Xiaoqian and Yan Chixia.

Ning Caichen directly took Nie Xiaoqian's bones and returned to his hometown smoothly, and later married Nie Xiaoqian.

The mural world he experiences is more like a mixture of two versions of the story.

Ning Caichen made some selections, and finally chose a courtyard near the Buddha Hall in the east.

It was so close to the small bamboo forest that he could see when he stood in the courtyard, which was one of the reasons why he stayed in the temple.

In addition, he wanted to stay as far away as possible from the scholar and Song Yuan.

People generally don't like to get too close to people they don't know well.

He didn't want to disturb Song Yuan and the two, and he didn't want to be disturbed by Song Yuan and the others.

The house in the courtyard was full of dust, and he cleaned it up, and reluctantly cleaned it up, and settled down.

......

To the west of Lanruo Temple, there are courtyards everywhere.

A Xiucai was reading, and the servants next to him were waiting for him, making tea for him.

"Childe, tea. ”

"Hmm. ”

Xiucai took the tea while reading the book and took a sip gently.

Putting down the teacup, he frowned and said slowly.

"There are a lot of houses in this temple, and you can clean up one next to this room and live in it. ”

"Yes, Childe. ”

The servant looked embarrassed.

I didn't have time last night, so I only cleaned up one room.

He knew that the sound of his snoring when he slept last night made Childe unhappy that he hadn't rested all night.

......

Further west, near one of the westernmost courtyards of the temple.

Yaksha's 'grandma' is explaining things to female ghosts such as Ye Cuimei and Nie Xiaoqian.

"Grandma, my Yaksha ghost body has been cultivated, although it will take a few days to consolidate it at best, but there is no need to be afraid of that Yan Chixia anymore!"

Yesterday, she practiced the body of a yaksha ghost, confident that she would no longer be afraid of Yan Chixia, so she quietly moved back to Lanruo Temple with all the female ghosts.

Ren Yan Chixia never thought that the female ghosts were so bold that they moved back to Lanruo Temple, lived under the same roof with him, and were still looking for other places.

"During these days, grandma took you to hide in Tibet, so you were not embarrassed.

I've become a ghost body, it's time to take revenge on Yan Chixia and them!"

"Aren't they two going to destroy us for the sake of one people?"

"Tonight, you go and pick one of the people who stay in this Lanruo Temple to drain the essence and kill it.

Kill one person the next day.

Do it right under their noses. ”

"Grandma, I can't wait to see how angry they look!"

Grandma Yaksha looked resentful and sneered.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
