Chapter 42 All are in the book
The storyteller nodded and continued: "That girl, I'm afraid the identity is not simple......! It is very likely that she is the princess of the dead country of Hualai Kingdom as written in her book!"

Inside the Broken Land Temple.
Genichi sat alone on the thatched stack, looking through the worn-out manuscripts in his hand.
For the monks, the dark night naturally can't hinder their observation, but at this time, Xuanyi is not in a very good mood.
There is no other reason, just because the development of the plot in this book really overlaps with reality.
Later, the country of Hualai was broken, and the princess of the dead country faced enemies from all directions, although she escaped from Hua'an Hall under the protection of the royal guards.
But she was chased by the enemy all the way, and escaped death countless times, and those who followed her also died one by one to protect her.
In the end, only a female guard surnamed Nangong was left, and she was escorted to a small city north of Hechuan Continent, where she would go on a quest for three years.
But the guard, because he was seriously injured in the process of fleeing, fell into an incurable disease.
When she finally escorted the princess of the dead country to this relatively safe place, she died in this ruined earth temple before she could last a year.
The "Aunt Nangong" in the mouth of the little beggar, when she was dying, only said a word to the little beggar with a smile: "Little Agarwood, just live well." ”
So, this princess of the dead country began her incognito begging career.
And in this process, the bitterness and bitterness that happened are needless to say.
It is worth mentioning that her book also writes:
"Three years after Aunt Nangong left me, on a snowy night, I met a little Taoist priest......"
Genichi sat there silently, his gaze never deviating from the book once, except for the occasional sound of turning the pages.
Read from night to dawn, and from dawn to the second dawn, word by word, tirelessly......
In this way, three days and three nights passed, and Xuan Yi read all the chapters she had written in two years.
But he didn't have the slightest happiness in his heart because he knew the follow-up of the story.
Because, at this time, what Xuanyi was reading was not a novel at all, but-
A girl, more than ten years of life......
Xuanyi never thought that one day, he would also become a person in the book. It's just that this feeling doesn't seem to be very good, but it makes him have some indescribable sorrow.
I should have come to her earlier.
Xuanyi, who didn't regret anything in the previous fifteen years, actually felt a little remorse at this time.
It's not that Xuan Yi had any feelings for that little beggar because of what happened that night, not to mention that he was only thirteen years old at the time, and he couldn't even be considered a first love.
Xuanyi just felt that he was destined at that time, and he could talk about it together, and he was barely a confidant.
So after he went back, he would only think of each other when he looked through the book "Floating Dreams".
However, at this time, Xuanyi finished reading the manuscript left by the little beggar and saw the little girl's pen, plus he finally knew that it was really not a novel, and the little girl's life.
This fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, some of the youthful spirit that should have in his heart, was aroused by that little girl!
"Ouyang Family ......"
Xuan Yi gently put the manuscript into his sleeve, slowly got up, and stood outside the door of the Land Temple, facing south, silent for a long time.
Subsequently, he first went into the city and found the city lord and asked some things about Hualai Kingdom.
I don't know if the city lord really doesn't know, or if he doesn't want to reveal it, although he respects Xuanyi very much on the surface, but he is very perfunctory about the questions about Hualaiguo asked by Xuanyi.
And the remnant of Hualai Country in the mouth of the storyteller, Xuanyi searched all over the city, and there was no trace.
In desperation, Xuan Yihao determined the general direction of Hua Laiguo based on some of the words that the storyteller had told him before, as well as some clues left in the little beggar's book, and was ready to ask questions while walking at that time.
And he didn't leave directly, and went back to the small bamboo house first, and after finding that Liu Pingsan still hadn't come back, he left a letter for Liu Pingsan.
Roughly speaking, it means:
I've been looking for you this time, but you're not at home, and I don't know where you're going, and I just happen to have something to do and need to make a trip to the south. So I'll take care of you here first, and when the time comes, if Master sends someone to you and comes to me, you can tell him.
Subsequently, Xuanyi locked the door of the bamboo building, learned from Liu Pingsan to cast a small spell on the bamboo building, and went south.
Little beggar, little Taoist priest is coming to you from today......
————
And just when Xuanyi left the bamboo building, there was a mountain forest not far from the bamboo building.
Two middle-aged Taoist priests, one fat and one thin, were talking to each other.
The fat Taoist priest among them scratched his head and said with some confusion: "Senior brother, why did you say that the little uncle didn't go to find that Liu Pingsan, but went south to find a princess who died in the country, should we go out now and stop the little uncle?"
The thin Taoist priest shook his head and replied with a smile: "No need, have you forgotten what the master told us when he left?"
After going down the mountain, unless Uncle Xiao really encountered any threat to life and death. Otherwise, no matter what choice he makes, no matter who he wants to meet, we will not be allowed to intervene, let alone help. ”
"Having said that, but ......" The fat Taoist priest obviously had some doubts.
"I know what you mean...... Thin Taoist priest thought for a while, and continued: "In this way, you go back to the mountain gate first and ask the master what he means."
As for me, I'll follow Uncle Xiao not far away, and mark your sect all the way, and then you will come to me again. ”
"Alright then, that's all it can be!" said the fat Taoist priest in a somewhat helpless tone.
The thin Taoist patted the fat Taoist priest on the shoulder, and said in a rather proud tone: "Don't worry, Uncle Xiao is the pride of our sect!
The fat Taoist priest nodded.
Afterwards, the two men parted ways in the woods, one westward and the other south.

In the town of Taoping.
Ah Lai walked up to the banshee named Bai Sha, put the heavy sword next to her head, and said casually: "Tell me, why do you demon clans stay in this Taoping Town? Are you looking for something?"
Unexpectedly, Bai Sha didn't have the slightest fear in the face of the powerful man in front of him, but smiled and said, "It's okay, Your Highness will avenge me!"
At this moment, Liu Pingsan obviously noticed something, so he hurriedly reminded him: "Ah Lai! she ......"
Then, I saw that the woman suddenly spit out a mouthful of black blood from her mouth and fell directly to the ground.
At the same time, she also conjured up her original appearance, which turned out to be a white-haired civet cat!
Ah Lai shook his head, and said in a tone without the slightest surprise: "It's useless, I have long expected such a result!"
"Huh?" Liu Pingsan wondered.
Ah Lai put away the heavy sword and explained with a smile: "Some demon clans, in fact, like the disciples of those big sects, have been banned from their bodies, and it is impossible to reveal any big secrets related to their origins. ”
Liu Pingsan nodded thoughtfully.
Ah Lai looked at the pagoda in the center of the town, and at the same time, his gaze seemed to be far away from Xue Xian, who was standing outside the pagoda.
Liu Pingsan also followed Ah Lai's gaze and looked in that direction, but because of the distance, he didn't find anything special.
Then, he heard Alaici's warm and mellow voice, coming from his side: "Little brother, today's highlight has not yet begun!"
However, it was not Liu Pingsan who answered Ah Lai, but another voice not far from them: "I don't know you, which play do you want to see?"
"As a human race, but you are in the same stream as the demon race, even if you have a thousand reasons, I am afraid that you will lose the backbone that a human son should have!" Ah Lai said in an unhurried tone.
Gu Yuan laughed loudly, but he didn't get angry because of Ah Lai's words, but he said: "Fellow Daoist, tell me! Can you eat this kind of thing? If you are about to die, what kind of backbone do you tell me, I think it's too ridiculous!"
