It's Liao Zhai, not Cthulhu

Reward: The sign-in task time is shortened by one month. 】

As soon as he finished, Qin Yuelou received a reminder from the system. Although the achievement was not triggered so frequently, this achievement also faintly gave some information.

If I really let it go, it is estimated that these things will cause damage to the ecology of Baishan in the future, and there will even be horrible legends, such as snails with human heads, ghosts pulling people and so on.

A little scared, if this is the case, then he is a sinner, and after a little composure, Qin Yuelou opened the door and entered Lanruo Temple.

The area of ​​Lanruo Temple is huge, which can be seen from the outer wall, and I don't know what the monks thought in those days, they would choose to build a temple in Baishan, it is impossible to build a temple in this wilderness Suppress something.

After entering the gate, Qinyue Tower was attracted by the scene in front of it. It can be seen that Lanruo Temple spent a lot of money when it was built in the past, with carved galleries and painted buildings, built with red lacquer and jade. As a result, the surface of the steps is still slightly sunken, which may be caused by the constant stream of people who visited back then. There are two large tanks placed in the fence on both sides of the steps.

In the middle is a Daxiong Palace, but the golden paint on the word "Baodian" fell off somewhere, only the word "Daxiong" remained, and the door was closed tightly, but the paper on the door and window was still a little tough, just a little of damage.

The doors and windows of the side halls on the left and right sides were also closed, but Qin Yuelou could smell sandalwood.

It's as if this Lanruo Temple was marinated by sandalwood back then.

Chapter 2 Enchanting Lan Ruo【[-]】

Like exploring the secrets, Qin Yuelou felt that the dilapidated Lanruo Temple was no longer as grand as it used to be, only ghosts and ghosts remained, the light rain was as moist as crisp, and the water vapor was dense, and there were some ghost shadows emitting bursts of silver in the denseness. Bell-like laughter.

Yun Yi Tong You looked carefully, and found that the ghosts were actually wild spirits, not ghosts, they could only be regarded as "weird".

These mountain spirits and wild spirits may be monsters transformed from the miasma in the mountains. They do not take the form of beasts as monsters, but only dead things or other unnamed things.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Dongfang Shuo used wine to turn "queer" insects, which is a kind of strange.

These mountain spirits and wild charms are exposed in revealing clothes, and their figures are graceful. Not only are their breasts exposed, but most of them are also exposed. There are women who appear one by one in this mist,

Many men and women came towards Qinyuelou by twisting their waists and limbs, or showing off their muscles in a particularly pretentious manner.

However, there is no foul smell of blood, which proves that they are not harmful to people, but the popularity on them cannot be faked, it can only be said that they have been lingering with people for a long time,

Seeing that Qin Yuelou was not moved, those female monsters were cursing.

"It's a rabbit master, you go up."

Although the voice was extremely low, Qin Yuelou had already secretly borrowed six ears, and his hearing was greatly enhanced, so he could naturally hear the words spoken by the female monsters.

The so-called Master Rabbit refers to Longyang's goodness and broken sleeve addiction, which is also the old name for homosexuality.

Qin Yuelou currently has no roots of love, nor does she have any worldly desires. She doesn't like men and women, and doesn't like things, so she is definitely an asexual.

Hearing the words of the female monsters, those male monsters came in various appearances one by one, some were evil, some were elegant, some were handsome... It can be said that there are all kinds of them, they are like a hundred flowers blooming. Compete for strangeness and beauty, so that Qin Yuelou can choose them.

Some took the initiative and even approached Qin Yuelou within seven steps, trying to tease Qin Yuelou.

Within seven steps, Qin Yuelou was faster than a bullet.

"Anyone of you who dares to take a step closer to me, I will beat him into a sheep." Qin Yuelou put his hands behind his back, and his not-so-long career of killing embryos also gave him a murderous wave.

Now the murderous fluctuations were released without restraint, and those male monsters also stood stiffly in place, in a dilemma.

What an ancient temple, after all the monks left, all the spirits of the mountains and fields were left behind, but it is understandable.

Although Lanruo Temple is said to belong to the category of Baishan, Lanruo Temple is located on an independent hill. This hill has no name, and it does not belong to Baishan or Heishan, but it is between the two mountains, because it is close to Baishan. , so it was generally included in the category of Baishan.

But in fact, this place is not under the jurisdiction of Yin Wen, but it is better than Baishan, not so desolate, but not as lush as Heishan, probably because of the terrain. There is a small river with waterfalls under Lanruo Temple, and the water source passes through the mountainside. The mountainside is gentle and close to the water source, so the site of Lanruo Temple is located on the mountainside.

Qinyue Tower continued to go deep into Lanruo Temple, and pushed open the gate of the Daxiong Hall. There were no Buddha statues in the hall, only the tabletop sculptures were left empty. The saplings of the young pagoda tree came, and the broken tiles on the roof revealed a little light from the sky, and we also saw the slightest drizzle.

The hall is cool and cool, and it can be regarded as a good place to escape the heat, but because of the root system, there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants here, and the wooden structures are also eaten by termites, and they are extremely decayed. Kneading can knead those woods into powder.

But what is strange is that part of the arched root system and the growing locust tree are responsible for the load-bearing function, as if maintaining the precarious condition of the hall and maintaining the only brilliance left on the outside.

Qin Yuelou walked back along the root system, and behind the main hall was a huge incense burner. The incense burner was filled with rainwater, mixed with incense ash, and the color was gray and black. There were some green algae growing on the water surface, which gave off a fishy smell. In that water, there are also creatures such as water spiders, mosquito larvae, tadpoles, and field soft-shelled turtles. Tadpoles eat larvae, and field soft-shelled turtles eat tadpoles, but there are no fish.

It's like a small ecosystem.

Behind the censer is the hall where some Bodhisattva and Buddha are enshrined. There are also side halls on both sides. There should be kitchens and monks' houses behind. There is also a high tower, which should be used to place scriptures.

But the most eye-catching thing is a huge locust tree. This locust tree is so huge that it is estimated that eight or nine adults cannot surround it. It is extremely tall, but the crown of the tree looks like the top of a hill.

There are strips of ribbons and bells wrapped around the branches of this pagoda tree, a little distance from the pagoda.

Qin Yuelou walked over, and there was only a small lake between the pagoda tree and the pagoda, but the water in the lake is not dead, it is flowing water, this should be the gentle river passing by the mountainside, and there are alchemy plants in the lake. , if it is summer, it is estimated that it is also a lake view with infinite lotus leaves in the sky.

The locust tree and the pagoda stand opposite each other across the lake, as if resenting the idiots who are blocked.

"It turns out that Lanruo Temple really has a big locust tree." Qin Yuelou raised his neck and looked at the tall and thick locust tree, and built a tree house between the intertwined trunks.

The neck is a little sore. The tree house looks like a pavilion among the tree trunks. The structure is light and bears a lot of weight, but it is not dilapidated. It seems that it has been built for a few years and there are still people living there.

A vine hangs down from the tree trunk, and Qin Yuelou seems to be able to climb it spiritually.

Qin Yuelou looked carefully and smelled it.

There is no blood and filthy air, and there is spirituality. It is probably not a monster, but a wild fairy of pure cultivation, but... the mixture of popularity and evil spirit is quite deep, like the smell engraved in the trees, and there is no tree at all. There is a smell.

Carefully use Daoyin Yuqi to perceive the surrounding air mechanisms, perhaps because in this ancient temple for many years, there is only a kind of warm and grand tolerance, but it is very brainwashed, and there is no such thing as chaotic, distorted and mutated air mechanisms. Influence.

Speaking of it, the inside and outside of Lanruo Temple seem to be two worlds. The outside world is affected by the chaotic and distorted mutant air mechanism, but the inside still maintains this normal appearance.

Well, Qin Yuelou doesn't think it's normal to look at those mountain spirits and wild charms outside, but this kind of abnormality is just normal.

Qin Yuelou didn't use the vines to climb up, and flew into the air with the water vapor, heading towards the tree crown.

Liu Er didn't hear any malice, but there were many noisy voices, bustling like a market or a restaurant, but it made Qinyuelou sound like some kind of entertainment place.

Clinking cups and cups, drinking and punching, quarreling, laughter, and melodious sounds, all kinds of sounds passed through the six ears.

The joys and sorrows of all beings in the world are not connected, and Qin Yuelou only feels noisy.

Afterwards, Qin Yuelou disappeared into the canopy of the tree and was nowhere to be seen.

Chapter 2 Magic Soldiers and Mysteries【[-]】

Nangong Tianwen and Beiming Xiaoxue walked forward following the two magical beasts.

More than a hundred years ago, Guo Yuewu, Taizu of the Great Jing Dynasty, conquered this land in troubled times, and this city was designated by Guo Yuewu to Bei Mingxuan, the only king with a different surname at that time, and asked Bei Mingxuan to build a palace in this city. The price for Mingxuan was to hand over the military power, Bei Mingxuan handed over, Guo Yuewu did not touch the king with a different surname, and the other generals who founded the country died cleanly.

There is no need to cover up this period of history, because the deaths of those generals are so bizarre that it is impossible to point out that Guo Yuewu was afraid that these generals would be so powerful that they would be ruthless.

Because there was a general who was crazy before he died, and from time to time he uttered strange ravings, saying things that ordinary people don't understand, such as "I don't want to know, so don't teach me again.", or "What is true in this world? What is false?" Alas, my insignificance is like a drop in the ocean."

It was as if he was being chased by some invisible object, he seemed to know something, and he seemed to know nothing. In the end, he went crazy, hit his head against a pillar, and died suddenly.

Some generals had no bones left, and they couldn't find them, only the smell was found on the bed. Some people said that they heard a sound like a shrill whistle that night.

A general evaporated from the world and disappeared without a trace. On the same day, the corpses in the mass grave were destroyed by unknown objects.

···There are many bizarre and strange things, and people who explore the truth either return home without a feather or disappear.

"Jing Shi" records the causes of death and follow-up of these generals one by one, but there are still no unsolved cases to this day.

But later generations still changed this story of Bei Mingxuan's survival into an opera such as "Taizu Yuewu Biography" according to the old legend, in order to beautify the image of Guo Yuewu and downplay the bizarre circumstances of the deaths of those generals.

As for the truth of the matter, most people don't care about it. After all, it is a prosperous age, there is no war, and most people live and work in peace and contentment?What's wrong?

Therefore, those unnamed [truths] were thrown into the pile of old papers.

However, with the passage of time, the descendants of Guo Yuewu in the royal family were also afraid of the king with a different surname from the Beiming family, so they used some means to cut the status of the king with a different surname, but the name of Beiming City still remained. However, the person in power in Beiming City is not the head of the Beiming family.

Beiming Fengyun, the contemporary Patriarch of the Beiming Family, was afraid that the status of the Beiming Family would fall again and again, so he took the initiative to enter the palace and have a night talk with the current emperor Guo Pojun. After dawn, Beiming Villa had another name, That is to say, the Huguo Villa, most of the spies in the villa, there are also strange people, warriors, etc., these people work for the court, not only involves the court, but also involves the Jianghu martial arts, and at the same time supervises the affairs of demons and ghosts.

It's just that their identities are not known to the world, they can be said to be secret guards.

Beiming Xiaoxue didn't know about these things. Although he had seen the refiners among those Qi refiners, and knew that the methods of Qi refiners were like those of gods, he thought that those people were his father's friends. It's just an offering from my own guest.

And she also knew that her family was very rich, and it was also the most famous casting family in Dajing. The weapons casting of the sergeants was equivalent to being monopolized by the Beiming family.

But Beiming Xiaoxue is not so unruly, but she can also be regarded as coquettish.

Then, after she met the magic weapon beast and chose him as the master of the army, she also knew Qin Yuelou as a number one figure. At the same time, she was also curious about Qin Yuelou, the strange man who created the magic weapon beast, but only Confined in curiosity, I want to visit.

Then she heard her magical beast, the little bronze beast said that there were demons in Beiming City, and then she heard the little bronze beast said that there were other warrior masters in her villa, so she became interested.

But he didn't know that the other soldier leader was Nangong Tianwen.

Nangong Tianwen was also very puzzled, when he was picked up by the chef and his sister, he met Beiming Xiaoxue, but Beiming Xiaoxue was very unruly when he was a child, and the two had a fight.

But he couldn't beat Beiming Xiaoxue. After all, Beiming Xiaoxue also practiced martial arts, but since then, the two of them also disliked each other. , also let go.

So the two gradually grew up amidst dislikes, and got to know each other a bit.

This is called childhood sweethearts who dislike each other.

The two magic beasts walked in front, and the two followed behind, without saying a word.

But when Beiming Xiaoxue spoke, she felt a little lingering fear.

"Recently, people in Beiming City are in a panic. It is said that every night, there will be a monster like a huge hat wounded by clouds and mist. At first, it was only a slight injury, but... recently it was reported that someone was eaten by the hat monster. Squatting with the magic beast at night..."

Beiming Xiaoxue was talking, but paused.

"Go on, what are you doing?" Nangongtian asked strangely, and asked Beiming Xiaoxue.

"No, aren't you afraid?" Beiming Xiaoxue asked Nangongtian.

"What do I have to be afraid of? Here, I can accept anything that claims to be a magic weapon. Tianjing told me that there are demons, and you also told me that there are demons. Wouldn't I just accept it naturally?" Nangongtian asked. I didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, "Besides, didn't you accept this fact as a matter of course?"

In fact, it's normal for Nangong Tianwen and Beiming Xiaoxue to accept the fact that the magical beasts appeared without any time to buffer them.

Because of his Xinzhiduo, each divine weapon beast's other Xinzhiduo can make their chosen soldiers accept their existence in the shortest time, which is a kind of confusion and tampering in the cognitive mode .

As weird as it sounds, it works.

And the confusion and tampering in this cognitive mode will also allow the military masters to recover quickly in the face of situations that are enough to break the Three Views, such as monsters.

Before meeting Tianjing, Nangong Tianwen didn't believe that there were ghosts and ghosts in the world at all, but now he believed in them, but he didn't see them.

"Okay, then I'll continue. That night, my magical beast and I may have seen the most unforgettable horror in this life." Beiming Xiaoxue was only afraid, and then described it.

"It was already late at that time, and the city was still brightly lit. The cap demon seemed to be hiding in the thick clouds, baring its teeth and claws in the clouds, stirring the evil mist, and there were other figures madly marching between the clouds... "

Nangong Tianwen listened, and a strange picture unconsciously appeared in his mind.

The full moon emits cold light, and the cold moonlight coats the pitch-black sky with a layer of distinct layers of visibility. In this layer are gray-black mixed with lead-colored heavy clouds. In this heavy cloud, a monster with an unknown appearance Shuttle flying, attracting other monsters in the clouds to cheer together,

He thought, maybe it should be a strange-shaped monster covered in hair, with a body like a hat, its stubby limbs curled up under the round one-piece wings, and an ugly monster the size of a washbasin on its limbs There are eyes, ears, mouth and nose in the middle, and blood foam and minced meat are mixed in the mouth and teeth. Strands of hair are wrapped around the fangs. When the mouth is opened to hiss, the hair from different people is swaying with the wind.

Preoccupied, accidentally bumped into a woman.

This woman was dressed in Daoist attire. She was originally named Kun Dao. She had long silver hair in a bun, but a lock of extremely long hair was raised up and bent in front of her body in a moderate arc. His green pupils are full of curiosity and playfulness, as if he is very interested in something.

"Sorry, Daoist." Nangong Tianwen hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay, the little bronze beast and the sapphire unicorn are very interesting, where did you get them?" Kun Dao waved his whisk, looking like a fairy, but the color of his eyes and hair didn't look like people from the Central Plains.

"Daozhang, can you see it?" Nangongtian asked strangely.

"Otherwise, why would I say it's interesting?" Kun Dao laughed, "Young man, tell me, I'd rather meet their creators."

"But the problem is that I don't know it myself. They only say that their ancestor is on a barren mountain in Guobei County, and I don't know anything else." Nangong Tianwen replied.

"Interesting, interesting." Kun Dao stroked the lock of long hair hanging down in front of his face like a beard, as if reminding him.

"Young man, don't pursue the matter of the hat demon in Beiming City anymore. Sometimes the more you know, the more you will fall into the abyss."

"Hey? Daoist, what do you mean? No, who are you?"

"Poverty, Jun Xuannai." After Kun Dao finished speaking, his figure disappeared without a trace.

[Guobei County?Interesting and interesting, I have been in the world for many years, and finally I have interesting people again. However, I am becoming more and more like a species like human beings. 】

It seems that somewhere in the void, a woman showed a hearty smile.

Chapter 3 Enchanting Lan Ruo [[-]]

The name of Lanruo Temple comes from Sanskrit, and Dajing’s Buddhist faith also originated from the Dafan Kingdom, where the Buddhist scriptures are as vast as countless dust, and the eminent monks live in Dafan Lingshan, but no one in this world travels all the way west to seek scriptures arts,

The word "Lan Ruo" is also transliterated from Sanskrit. It is a simplification of Alan Ruo.

Just like the scene in front of you.

After the figure is submerged in the canopy of the tree, flowers and leaves are flying in front of the eyes, which seems to form a shape different from the outside world, but it has turned into a magnificent city in the tree.

"Lan Ruohuai City, the blissful place in the world." Qin Yuelou read out the words engraved on the city wall in front of him.

And the name of this city in the tree is "Lan Ruo Huai City".

Many handsome men and beauties hugged in the street in the city, and their clothes were extremely revealing. No matter men or women, it was extremely rare for people like Qin Yuelou to be well-dressed.

It cannot be said that it is extremely rare, it can only be said that he is the only one.

He felt that he might have gone to some unscrupulous place, surrounded by pavilions, and the smell of wine and food also wafted from those pavilions, pervading the entire Huai city, and there were other inexplicable things The fragrance seems to be floral, but it also has the fragrance of rouge and gouache. However, there are other flavors under these mixed fragrances.

The smell of heather, the fishy smell of seafood.
