The bandits did not attack the mountain again to retaliate. The beggar army probably plundered the entire villages and towns of Qiandeng County and plundered a large amount of food and grass. They could not capture the county town, and they were in vain for only half a month. After surrounding them, they finally retreated...

During the half month of guarding the temple, Nie Xiaoqian understood the wonderful method of the five elements from the restraint of the five elements one by one in the four jade slips of earth, water, fire, gold and the four great jade slips.

The day after the Qihuo Army retreated to the county, she and Wang Lin and Ning Wentian left Gu Niang Temple and embarked on the road to Lanruo Temple.

Guobei County and Qiandeng County are like those of the severely affected by the drought. At first glance, there is no grass growing. That is, when you get close to Xiaojing Lake, you can see some vitality.

But the closer we get to the Soul Shooting Hill, the closer we get to Lanruo Temple, the more plants and trees gradually become lush, as if this demon cave, which was deserted in the past, was not affected by the drought.

"There is a demonic spirit!"

When Nie Xiaoqian was familiar with the road and led people out of the Black Wind Forest, she saw the half-human-high "Lan Ruo Temple" stele, the ghost thief in the green wood pot suddenly screamed.

Wang Lin, who had been walking silently with his head down, paused slightly when he heard the word "demonic energy". Although Ning Wentian was also silent, his right hand quietly penetrated under the coffin of the copper essence behind him.

Nie Xiaoqian felt a little strange that the Qingmu pot could trap the ghost thief but could not stop the ghost thief from sensing the demonic energy in the outside world, but it was not surprising that there was demonic energy here. She said: "There is Lanruo Temple in front, and the thousand-year-old tree demon entrenched in the soul-summoning post behind the temple. Be careful."

The sky of Lanruo Temple seemed to be covered with a lot of demonic atmosphere, as dark as before, and the sun and the moon were missing.

The smoke is covered with the grass, and the cold is harsh.

Walking through the dead branches and leaves, you can see the ruins in front of you from afar, as well as the hidden shadows of the trees, and the corner of the temple with high eaves and teeth.

When you listen carefully, you can still hear the fishy eaves bell blown and the lonely dingling bells.

The cold wind roared through the forest. The yellow leaves rolled around, the pagoda was majestic and magnificent, and the stone statue of Vajra Venerable still had a ferocious face.

Seeing the old things as yesterday, Nie Xiaoqian only felt a little emotional. She had no idea that she was uneasy about the possibility of meeting the old witch.

Is it because my strength has improved?

A thought passed through Nie Xiaoqian's mind, but she immediately restrained her mind and focused her energy to deal with the demons and monsters who might jump out to fight with her at any time.

Ning Wentian, who was standing beside him, untied the green wood pot from his waist and was about to ask the ghost thief where the moon ice wheel that could open a passage to the ghost coffin was hidden.

However, at this moment, the silence of Lanruo Temple was broken by a cough.

Is it a human, a demon, or a ghost?

Nie Xiaoqian looked up at the sky, then stared at the relatively intact attic in the east wing, and the coughing sound came from it.

Although it is still daytime, the weather in the Lanruo Temple is capricious, and many things outside are not allowed to be done here.

Wang Lin next to him has experienced this.

In the past, he and the little monk tried to enter the Soul Conjuring Post and help Nie Xiaoqian's ashes. But as soon as they entered the Black Wind Forest, they got lost. They were windy and rainy, and they couldn't tell the sun.

Nie Xiaoqian and Wang Lin, Ning Wentian looked at each other, nodded, and surrounded the attic in several directions.

She floated the fastest and arrived at the door of the attic in the blink of an eye. Without hesitation, she waved her sleeves gently and immediately a gust of cold wind broke out.

With a creaking sound, the door opened with the wind and hit the wall with a bang.

Someone!

In the dark attic, Nie Xiaoqian saw it. At the end of the attic, there was a person lying on the bed where countless people died.

The man was handsome and wore a square scarf and wrapped in a thin quilt. I don’t know if he was scared or frozen, but he was hugging him into a ball and trembling. He looked a little dumb.

"who?"

The man hurried in the corner of the bed and shouted in a little panic.

"Who is standing there?"

After screaming twice, he didn't hear the answer, so he put down the book in his hand, rolled down from the bed in a hurry, climbed to the shorter table, and lit the lights tremblingly.

A light lit up and shone the attic through transparency.

"It turns out that it's not a ghost, it's a human." The man saw Nie Xiaoqian standing by the door, and his heart was still in shock back from his throat to his original position, stroked his chest and muttered.

His muttering voice was undoubtedly extremely small, but Nie Xiaoqian not only had a clear eye but also had a clear ear: "I don't speak strange powers and chaotic spirits. Scholars are well-read and are afraid of ghosts?"

The scholar put the oil lamp on a low table, his frozen hands gathered on the lights, warmed up a little, bowed slightly to Nie Xiaoqian, and said, "Girl, Ning Caichen is rude."

After bowing and apologizing, he sorted out his clothes and added: "Scholars are also humans, and even humans are afraid of ghosts."

Ning Caichen, it turns out that this is the poor scholar who is pedantic and kind, who is a bit cute.

After traveling to the world of Ghost Story of A Chinese Girl, more than a year later, I finally met the male protagonist in the original work.

After all, it has been several months since the original story. I didn’t expect that he still lives in Lanruo Temple and lives well. Although this “good” is actually quite miserable and there are not even a few clothes to protect the cold.

"Young Master Ning's words are generalized. Some people are not afraid of ghosts." Nie Xiaoqian was confused and couldn't understand for a moment, so she started to say it according to the topic.

"Oh, there are still people who are not afraid of ghosts." Ning Caichen scratched the scholar's scarf on his head and said.

While talking, two figures appeared at the door.

Wang Lin and Ning Wentian heard Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen's speech, and knew that there was no danger, they came over.

Nie Xiaoqian pointed at the two of them and said with a smile: "Young Master Ning, look, these two young masters are not afraid of ghosts."

Ning Caichen saw them, especially when he witnessed the copper essence coffin on Ning Wentian's back, and was a little surprised, but he hurriedly bowed again and said, "I, Ning Caichen, have seen two of you."

"Wang Lin." Wang Lin said.

"Ning Ask the Heaven." Ning Ask the Heavenly Dao.

"Actually, in Nie Xiaoqian's opinion, Mr. Ning doesn't seem to be afraid of ghosts."

"Why did Miss Nie say this?"

"You haven't heard anyone say that the Lanruo Temple you live in is not an ordinary dilapidated temple?"

"Before, Ning Caichen heard many people say that Lanruo Temple is a ghost temple, and ghosts appear at night. However, Ning Caichen lived here for a while and had never seen anything unclean."

"How long have Mr. Ning lived here?"

"Shame, Ning Caichen has lived here for several months."

It seems that Ning Caichen did not receive the account at the beginning and fell to Lanruo Temple. Later, there was a drought and the war was in chaos, so it was even more impossible to collect the account. Unexpectedly, he was very resilient and lived in Lanruo Temple until now.

But where have the old witch and Xiaoqing gone?

According to their habits, young and handsome guys like Ning Caichen have been given to their mouths, and it is impossible to miss them.

Could it be that they were taken away and destroyed?

Or have they left Lanruo Temple, or even something that prevented them from appearing in Lanruo Temple, which would harm people's lives? (To be continued.)
