Lanke Chess Edge

Chapter 586: confidant from abroad

The shopkeeper's sarcastic remarks lifted the spirit of the scholar, and he hurriedly asked.

"The shopkeeper, just go straight to the north? Will it be necessary to turn around or something?"

"What, are you really going to go?"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he specially reminded.

"We can't live this night, there are a lot of wild dogs, and even wild beasts wandering around, maybe there may be ghosts outside, you are a weak scholar, you are scared to death by walking at night. Right? Otherwise, what books do you bring with you, or whether you bring any of the four treasures of the study, I will let you **** it for you, enough..."

"Many thanks to the shopkeeper, I told you that Xiaosheng will no longer live here, Xiaosheng will go by himself, and Xiaosheng will go by himself!"

Originally, the scholar thought that the shopkeeper would be kind enough to take him in, but when he heard that he wanted to **** his cherished books and pen and ink, he was willing to keep it, and left the inn with the bookcase on his back. She has never slept in the open, and her courage is not as small as it looks.

The shopkeeper saw the scholar and left without looking back, and subconsciously stood on tiptoe behind the counter and shouted.

"Hey~~ That scholar, it's not like the **** can't be taken back, what is a few books?"

The scholar still didn't turn his head. After waving his hand, his footsteps accelerated, because the sky was getting darker and darker at this moment, and the west side could only vaguely see the sunset glow of the setting sun.

The three of Ji Yuan stood on the street corner opposite the Hedian Inn, and witnessed the coming and going of the scholar throughout the whole process. When the other party trotted away with the bookcase on his back, Yang Hao couldn't help but speak out.

"Mr. Ji, he's gone, let's follow soon, shall we?"

"No hurry, I can just walk over slowly."

After the three of them communicated, they walked slowly towards the north together...

"Wang Wang Wang... Wang Wang Wang Wang..."

"Ow..."

"Wang Wang Wang Wang..."

"Meow..." "Meow... woo woo..."

Dogs and cats can be heard constantly in some parts of the town, and even stray dogs can occasionally be seen running in groups. Some of the barking sounds really scary, like a child crying.

Among the three of Ji Yuan, one is a cultivator with a high level of Taoism, the other is a 95-year-old before his death, and the other is a martial artist of the innate grandmaster level.

But the scholar was not so calm. He pressed the bookcase with both hands behind his back, ran as fast as he could, and kept running towards the north with his breathlessness.

"Why haven't I seen it yet? Why haven't I seen it yet? Why is it so far away? The innkeeper wouldn't be a liar, would he?"

The scholar has been carrying the book box for a long time, and now he can't even see the desolate street scene in the town at night, and there are more weeds and trees around, and the terrifying dog barks like weeping.

The scholar's footsteps couldn't help slowing down. It was already dark. He was now in an extremely awkward position. The town buildings behind him were a bit far away, and he couldn't see it clearly in the darkness of the night. There were weeds and trees all around, and some of them were big. The tree looks very strange, and the so-called river temple can't be seen in front of it, let alone the river temple, there is not even a river.

"Ooooooooo~~~"

There was a dog barking behind him. The scholar looked back and saw several pairs of green eyes in the distance. He felt his scalp numb and sweat dripping from his body. How could he look more like a wolf than a dog.

"Wang Wang Wang..." "Wang Wang Wang... Ow..."

The scholar was really frightened. As soon as he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, he could only run forward again. Even if he wanted to go back to the town, he had to take a detour. Fortunately, it seemed that God heard his prayer and walked along the shabby path for a while. When he was about to cross the path and go back to the town, he stepped over a few dead trees by the grass, and a temple building appeared not far from the scholar's eyes.

"River Temple? Really! Great, great!"

The scholar took three steps and took two steps, and quickly ran towards the front. At this moment, the moon was also showing a cloud, and the moonlight provided some visibility. It could be seen that the temple was not too dilapidated, at least the doors and windows seemed to be intact, and there was even a yard outside. , but the courtyard gate has disappeared.

After passing through the courtyard gate, the scholar walked to the front of the temple a few times, and his footsteps subconsciously slowed down. The temple was dark and looked a little afraid of people. He bent down and reached out to pick up a branch on the ground, and then knocked on the temple door. Come.

"Bang bang bang bang..." "Bang bang bang..."

After knocking a few times and seeing that there was no movement inside, the tree wiped the sweat from his face, and carefully pushed open the temple door with a branch.

"Squeak~~~"

With a slightly sharp creaking sound, the scene in the temple appeared in front of the scholar's eyes. It was faintly visible under the moonlight. The temple room was actually not small. It was said to be a river temple, but the statue was long gone. Debris such as planks, some hay, and even traces of charcoal from a campfire, apparently other people have stayed there.

This time, the scholar's courage increased greatly, he walked in with the bookcase on his back, and then put down the bookcase to clean up the ground, and only after clearing a suitable place did he think of starting a fire.

"Oops, my flint..."

After rummaging in the bookcase for a long time, the scholar did not find his flint stone. He also found a small hole in the corner of his bookcase door. Eighty percent of the time, he threw the flint stone out when he was running in a panic. Unfortunately, Fortunately, books and pen and ink are all there.

"Hey... so pay attention to one night..."

The scholar had no choice but to close the temple door and lie down on the hay, which was considered a resignation.

At this moment, the three of Ji Yuan are slowly approaching the River Temple. In Ji Yuan's eyes, there is indeed some evil around them. When they walked outside the courtyard, Li Jingchun looked around and said.

"Why is this called the River Temple? I haven't seen any rivers."

Yang Hao had read this part of "Shame on the Wild Fox" and explained to Li Jingchun.

"There is a river. When we came, the road was overgrown with weeds, and the road with the strange trees next to it was the river, but it has been dry for many years, and the temple is naturally deserted. Sir, shall we go there?"

Ji Yuan smiled.

"Young Master San, you originally came to see the fox girl, but now you are reserved?"

"Hey hey, just being polite."

After finishing speaking, Yang Hao took the lead and walked directly towards the interior, Li Jingchun immediately followed, and Ji Yuan was a step behind, scanning the surroundings before walking forward.

This world is transformed by his magic, but he cannot control the actions of every person and animal by himself, nor can he refine every piece of grass. The world that comes out is just a real thing. Except for the stories in the book, all living beings, the people and the people have their own thoughts.

And Yang Hao over there has already begun to call the door.

"Is there anyone inside? Is there anyone? There is no owner in the deserted temple. Can I stay overnight when I pass by?"

The sleepy scholar heard the noise outside, and woke up immediately, followed by some surprises. He stood up and looked outside, and when he could see someone standing, he hurried to the door to probe, it seemed that there were scholars too. Immediately overjoyed, he brought the wooden board supporting the door and personally opened the door for the people outside.

"There are some people. If you want to stay overnight, please come in. The place is spacious."

"Thank you, thank you, Yang Hao is polite!"

Yang Hao transitioned from the status of an emperor to a scholar without any awkwardness, and even saluted such a small democracy, the latter naturally hurriedly returned the salute.

"You're welcome, Xiaosheng Wang Yuanming is just a person who stays in a desolate temple."

"Oh, oh, I've been looking forward to it for a long time!"

Yang Hao stepped into the temple with a smile. Although Wang Yuanming wondered for a moment why he was "respected" by the other party, he immediately realized that it was just a polite remark, so he turned his attention to the two people behind Yang Hao.

"Li Jingchun, Third Young Master's entourage, hello Young Master Wang!"

Li Jingchun entered the temple as soon as he handed over, Wang Yuanming hurriedly turned sideways to return the salute, and at this time Ji Yuan also entered the temple and nodded slightly towards the scholar.

"My lord, the prince is good."

Ji Yuan's bearing was completely different from the previous two, looking more like a learned person, Wang Yuanming inexplicably had the feeling that he first met his master when he was a child~www.NovelMTL.com~ could not help but be more respectful.

"Hello sir, please come in."

After a few people went in, they discussed making a fire. Although there was no flint, Ji Yuan lied that he brought it with him, and when someone came over to pick up a firewood branch, he looked at the firewood branch with his fingers, and a flame the size of a bean appeared in the firewood branch. In the dry grass that ignited the fire, the bonfire soon started.

When the fire came together, the inside of the temple became a lot warmer, plus there were many people, and they looked very kind. The fear in Wang Shusheng's heart had long since dissipated, and he chatted eagerly with the three of them.

"Oh, so the three of you couldn't find a place to live?"

"Yeah, the rooms of the two inns are all full, and the people here are very guarded against outsiders. At night, few people answer the door. Even if they answer the door, they will refuse us to stay overnight. Fortunately, I found out here and come here to try my luck."

Wang Yuanming nodded again and again after hearing this.

"Hey, I'm even more unlucky. I was able to live in the store, but the money bag was gone. I don't know if it was lost or a thief, so I had to come here."

When the scholar said this, he lamented in a heavy tone. In addition to being angry at his own misfortune, there was even a trace of congratulations that he didn't have to feel embarrassed for his shriveled purse.

"Oh, patronizing and talking, I saw a few of you who didn't bring any salutes, and probably didn't bring anything to eat. I still have a few dry biscuits in my book box. They've softened and we can eat them?"

"Thank you so much, Young Master Wang. Yang ate some rice cakes today, and he's already hungry!"

"Many thanks to the prince!" "Respectful, I can't obey my orders. If I eat the cakes of the prince tonight, I will definitely invite the prince to eat some better meals another day!"

"Hahaha, my generation of scholars should be sages and sages. Not only must they be knowledgeable, but they must also be eager to be fair and righteous. What kind of politeness!"

Several people chatted more and more speculatively, especially that Young Master Yang Hao, chatting with him, Wang Yuanming even had a sense of excitement to find his friend in a foreign country.
