In the secluded mountain forest, a bonfire burns quietly. By the fire, a woman lay on her side on a dark blue cotton cloth. Her head rested on a white cloth bag, her black hair was spread out, there was a cloud-like sorrow between her closed eyebrows and eyes, her lips were pursed on a face that was captivating, and there was a faint sound of undetectable breathing between her snorts.

On the other side of the fire, a dark blue cotton cloth was also spread on the ground. On top of the cotton cloth, a chubby little monk lay on it, and he fell into a dream with a gray cloth bag on his head. The little monk's sleeping face frowned, and he would dream twice from time to time, and his words were roughly "Master~".

Next to the little monk, there was a young man sitting cross-legged, his eyes were deep, and he quietly looked at the woman lying on his side opposite the fire. "Master~" In the dream of the little monk, the young man withdrew his gaze from the woman.

The mountains and forests in the night were unusually quiet, and the bonfire was much weaker unconsciously, and the young man got up quietly, took some dead branches and threw them into the fire, and then the flames grew violently.

"You don't sleep. Across the fire, the beautiful woman suddenly opened her eyes, she stretched out her slender hand and rubbed her sleepy eyes, and then raised her hand and stretched her waist very casually, her posture looked very elegant.

"I'm not sleepy, why don't you sleep more. Seeing the woman wake up, the young man smiled slightly, and then sat down next to the little monk again.

"I slept well. The woman looked at the young man, smiled back, and then moved her gaze to the fire, and her face became faintly solemn.

The bonfire burned quietly, and the young man and the woman sat by the fire without saying a word, and after a long silence, when the young man took a few dead branches from the side and threw them into the fire, the woman opened her mouth quietly.

"What do you think should be done now about the town under the mountain?"

"We visited the town twice yesterday and there was no clue. The only thing that can be proved now is that the Daohaikou Town under the mountain, as you said, has been set up with a Yin Gathering Array. And the person who set up the formation, we are not sure whether it is hidden in the town or not, so I want to wait until dawn to check on the town, if there is still no clue, then we have to go back. ”

"Well, I may not be able to break the Yin Gathering Array under the town, but the fog array on this mountain should be fine, and when the day dawns, we will go down the mountain to find the middle position of the Nine Palaces of this fog array, and break the fog array on the mountain before leaving. When I return to the Thaumaturgy Pavilion later, I will ask the Jiang Pavilion Master to find other seniors to see if he can break the formation in the town. ”

"Okay~" The young man looked at the woman and smiled slightly, and the trace of sorrow hidden between his eyebrows dissipated a little.

After a conversation, the two fell silent again, and beside the burning bonfire, the young man and the woman would meet their eyes from time to time, and then quickly look away, and the atmosphere seemed extremely awkward.

The two sat silently until the twilight was about to disperse, and the young man stood up violently, and then took off a piece of jade hanging on his chest from his chest, and said in a very light tone, "This is a piece of jade handed down by my ancestors, and I will give it to you." ”

The young man held the jade and stood beside the woman in a daze, his tone full of embarrassment. For him, the woman in front of him gave him a very special feeling, which existed from the time he first met, and as he became acquainted with the woman later, this feeling became deeper and deeper.

It felt like it lasted until tonight, and it continued to erupt violently. Under the ghost's divine send, the young man followed his own wishes, took out his ancestor's jade and handed it to the woman.

"Your ancestor's jade?" The woman saw the young man standing beside her with the jade, and quickly stood up. She did not refuse the jade sent by the young man, but after asking softly, she directly reached out and took the jade.

"Well, this is what my master left to my master, and later my master gave it to me when he accepted me for entry. The young man looked at the woman and said softly.

"Thank you!" a smile appeared on the woman's face, and she immediately hung the jade directly around her neck. Then, the two returned to their respective places and sat down.

"Li Ge, do you remember a question I asked you in Zhu'er Village in Wushan the year before last?" the woman crossed her knees with her arms and eyes, and asked softly as she looked at the young man on the other side of the fire with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.

"I remember. Li Ge nodded, remembering the scene that happened in Zhu'er Village the year before last, and replied softly, "You asked me at the time, whether the marriage of the person was arranged by the old man. I said that there are thousands of people in the world, and it is impossible for Yue Lao to arrange them. Later, he said that the matter of marriage depends on oneself, and if you meet the right person at the right time, it is marriage. ”

"So you remember. Hearing Li Ge's words, the tenderness in Lin Yurou's eyes became stronger.

"Hmm~ I've always kept it in my heart. Li Ge nodded, and then said, "My master often says that we cultivators cultivate a normal heart, so for you, I have always gone with the flow, but just now I don't know why, I will ......."

"Doing it according to your own heart is also a kind of going with the flow. After a pause halfway through listening to Li Ge's words, Lin Yurou hurriedly took over, "I like this piece of jade very much, and I will wear it on my body all the time in the future." ”

Hearing Lin Yurou's words, Li Ge was excited in his heart, and sat silently nodding his head, just as a few words came out of his heart and was about to speak, the little monk next to him suddenly stood up.

"Second brother, Sister Yurou, are you all awake?" Jingchen stretched out his little fat hand and rubbed his eyes, interrupting Li Ge's words abruptly, and then he sat beside the latter and asked in a childish voice, "Sister Yurou, you just said that jade likes it very much? What kind of jade is it, can you show it to the little monk?"

"No~ no jade. When Lin Yurou heard Jingchen's sudden question, her face turned crimson, and she buried her head deeply behind her face.

"Amitabha! Could it be that the little monk misheard. Jingchen muttered a word while reciting the Buddha's name, and was about to open his mouth to ask Li Ge next to him, when he took out a bamboo vessel filled with water and handed it to him.

"Drink some water, clean the dust, after drinking the water, you are eating a few steamed buns, and then we are going to the town today, if we can't find anything abnormal today, we will go back." After Li Ge handed the bamboo vessel filled with water to the little monk, he touched the latter's bare head.

"Good. After the little monk took the water, he took a few sips, and then took out the steamed buns from his baggage and nibbled on them.

Just as the three of them were each holding steamed buns and eating them, there was a sound of footsteps in the silent mountain forest. When the footsteps first sounded, they were still about ten feet away. Immediately after, the footsteps became more and more hurried, and after three breaths, under the light of the fire, a young man emerged from the fog and appeared in front of the three of them.

The man had a rough face, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a blue robe, and his hair was tied up in a bun on the top of his head. When he saw the three men by the fire, he stopped and stared for a moment, then let out a hearty laugh.
