burning lamp

It was in the middle of the night, the red sun was low, and the mountains and forests were twilight.Xie Fengshu was walking in the forest alone, wearing a red dress that stood out.

He sneaked out after eating, firstly, he was lazy and didn’t want to practice kung fu; secondly, he was worried about the fact that he told Xiaoxi that he was a coward, so he was so bold that he insisted on meeting the monk who ate monsters.

Mount Sumeru has a vast shape, and by the time Xie Fengshu reached the back mountain, the sun had completely set.There was a wind in the forest, rustling the vegetation.Xie Fengshu walked more and more slowly, while looking around, for fear that a monster with a green face and fangs would suddenly appear somewhere.It's a pity that he didn't see anything except the occasional pheasant and hare that sprang out and frightened him a lot.

He is indeed a bit guilty - he has never set foot in the human world, and the only knowledge he has about the world beyond Sumeru comes from the scriptures brought back to him by other members of the Shimen and their dictation. Among them, Lu Qiwu loves to talk big, Xiaoxi always likes to scare him, but Sui Ling is reliable, besides, there are not many Xumi monsters, and they are all little monsters like rabbits and sika deer.

In a word, Xie Fengshu has been incarnate for more than 200 years, and he has never seen any big monster that eats people, nor has he seen a monk who can eat monsters.

Seeing that it was going to be dark, Xie Fengshu thought about going back and forgetting about it, but also felt that it was so useless to return, and Xiaoxi didn't know how to make fun of him, so he simply wandered around the forest aimlessly.

When he walked deep into the forest, an ancient tree suddenly appeared in front of him.

Different from Master's sycamore tree with green leaves like green leaves, although it is a towering giant tree, the tree in front of me is full of flowers like snow, overlapping one after another, almost covering half of the sky, once the mountain wind passes, the petals fall like snowflakes. Down, fell all over the ground.

Xie Fengshu was attracted by the tree full of flowers at first sight, stared at it for a while, then turned around, only to find a small courtyard behind the tree.

The yard is not big, with red walls and brown tiles, it looks a bit old and faded.Xie Fengshu never knew that there were people living here. He walked over and stood at the door for a while, only to realize later: This should be the place where the monk lived.

Thinking about it this way, Xie Fengshu stood there and thought for a long time, whether it was curiosity that overwhelmed the little fear.The fence was a bit high, Xie Fengshu flipped over to the wall, and after making sure that there was no one in the yard, he carefully sat down on the top of the wall.

There are green bamboos on both sides of the courtyard, lush and lush, the courtyard is paved with bluestones, and at the end is a room, the doors and windows are closed, it seems that there is no one there.

Even so, Xie Fengshu hesitated for a while, but still didn't dare to go in.

What if that monk was insidious and cunning, and set some kind of trap inside, just waiting to catch monsters?

Thinking this way, he retracted his eager feet, squatted on the wall for a while, and decided to go back to the mirror stage first.Xie Fengshu made up his mind, so he stood up and jumped off the wall. Before he could stand still, he turned around and crashed into someone's arms.

The plain white monk's robe threw Xie Fengshu's face all over, and along with it came a faint fragrance, a bit like the ancient pine in this mountain, but it lacked the astringency, only feeling cold and lingering.When Xie Fengshu raised his head, he met a pair of cold eyes.

Xie Fengshu was taken aback, unable to say anything.

He just thought that this person was really... very good-looking.

He hadn't seen many people before, so he thought that the most beautiful person in the world was his senior sister, but this person in front of him was actually a little prettier than his senior sister.

Xie Fengshu took a step back and got off the other person. He felt a little embarrassed about bumping into the person's arms, and his eyes were still on the other person's face. He asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"

Perhaps it was a mortal who strayed into the forest, and it was not without precedent before.If so, you can send the other party out.

Xie Fengshu thought so, and asked again: "What are you doing here?"

Then, he saw the other party frowned slightly, and replied, "I live here."

His voice was deep and sweet, Xie Fengshu was a little dazed for a moment, and then he realized: This man said he lives here!

This is the monk with the green face and fangs that Master and the others said he only eats monsters!

Xie Fengshu "teng" and retreated far away, but unfortunately there was a wall behind him, so he couldn't go anywhere, Xie Fengshu wanted to get the knife again, but when he stretched out his hand, his waist was empty.

Only then did he realize that he seemed to have forgotten his knife at home.

The monk's gaze was still on his face, Xie Fengshu was so anxious that his head was sweating, but he refused to admit defeat, raised his head and said viciously: "I warn you, if you eat me, my master and brother Senior Sister will definitely not let you go!"

Jiang Chen: "...?"

Xie Fengshu tried his best to look fierce, but instead he put on a fair face, with a youthful voice in his voice.

"If you let me go, I won't sue Master and them. If you want to live here, you can live here."

... This is still a king of the mountain who "I opened this mountain and planted this tree".

Jiang Chen was speechless for a moment, and wanted to call the person in front of him by his name, but also thought about the reincarnation of the first life, forgetting the past, not to mention that after tens of thousands of years, the other party should not be called Ying Long long ago.

So he just looked at each other and said, "I won't eat you."

He thought for a while, and simply added: "I don't eat monsters."

When Xie Fengshu heard the words, he first looked at the other party suspiciously, wanting to see if the other party was lying.

But the look of the person in front of him was peaceful, and he didn't seem to be lying.Xie Fengshu thought that Xiexi had told him that monks were all green-faced and fangs, so he was probably lying to him again.

Sooner or later, he will be beaten according to the mock creek.

Xie Fengshu felt relieved a little, and took a tentative step forward.Jiang Chen didn't respond, but took a few steps back to let someone come out from under the wall.

Xie Fengshu walked out a few steps, stood under the tree, and turned around to confirm something: "I really left?"

At this moment, Jiang Chen said, "Wait a minute."

Xie Fengshu suppressed the thought of jumping into the forest without turning his head back, and obediently stood where he was, while comforting himself in his heart: It's okay, anyway, I run fast, he may not be able to catch up.

Jiang Chen didn't know what Xie Fengshu was thinking, he pushed open the temple door and walked in, and after a while, he went back outside again with a lantern in his hand.

The lantern is no longer than half an arm's length, and it looks small and simple in a boxy shape.Candlelight shines through the white paper, illuminating his eyebrows and eyes.

He handed the lantern to Xie Fengshu.

"The sky is dark and the mountains are deep, keep the light on the road."

Xie Fengshu was taken aback, took the lantern and held it in his hand, only to realize that it was already dark.If I can't see myself, the senior sister is probably going crazy, and the master is definitely going to curse again.

Thinking of this, Xie Fengshu rushed into the night in a hurry, stopped in a hurry halfway, and turned his head to look at Jiang Chen under the tree.

He was a little embarrassed, afraid that the other party would think that he would take advantage of it, so he quickly raised his head and said, "I will pay you back when I come next time."

Jiang Chen shook his head: "No need."

Xie Fengshu didn't have time to listen to what he said, the red clothes were hidden in the darkness, the candlelight of the lantern flickered in his hand, and gradually faded away.

Jiang Chen watched his back until the other party completely disappeared into the forest.

Jiang Chen understands the meaning of the fairy world, but it's just that once he was bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of the well rope, and worried that Yinglong would reincarnate and do something to kill immortals and gods.Jiang Chen went to Xumi not for them, but there was a reason for killing Yinglong back then, and he felt that even if he didn't come, the fairy world would find other ways to avoid future troubles.

It would be better to switch to myself, save the trouble, instead of taking care of Ying Long, just change to a place to practice meditation.

But he never imagined that after Yinglong's reincarnation, his previous life would disappear, and he would become this wanton, agile and unrestrained young man in front of him.

After reincarnation, the past is forgotten, and the blood and hatred of the past, all kinds of pain, seem to disappear completely.

When the last light in the forest disappeared, Jiang Chen looked away.

The mountain road is difficult, let alone at night.Xie Fengshu hurried all the way with the lamp in his hand, just when he was halfway there, he heard rustling sounds from the grass in front of him.

Xie Fengshu was quite familiar with the voice, so he immediately turned his head to look over.Sure enough, a moment later a green snake crawled out from the grass, glanced at Xie Fengshu, then turned and swam out.

It's over.Xie Fengshu sighed and stood still.After a while, the vegetation in front of him moved, and a furious voice sounded immediately.

"Xie Fengshu! Are you stupid!"

Xie Fengshu's ears rang from the roar, and he curled his lips at the person in front of him: "Didn't I come back?"

Xiaoxi rushed to Xie Fengshu in a few steps, her voice was louder than before.

"What time is it, do you still remember to come back! Why don't you just stay outside for the rest of your life!"

Xie Fengshu knew he was wrong, so he whispered, "Where are Master and Senior Sister?"

"Wait at home, do you want them to come to find someone in the middle of the night?" Xiaoxi looked at Xie Fengshu carefully, then gritted his teeth, "I thought you were caught and eaten by that monk."

Speaking of this, Xie Fengshu suddenly raised his head: "You lied to me!"

"What did you lie to?"

"That monk doesn't eat monsters, and he doesn't look ugly."

"I don't care what he looks like." Xie Xi poked Xie Fengshu's head, "If you run around again, I will really beat you."

He was out of breath, and the hem of his clothes was still stained with plant ash. Xie Fengshu obediently admitted his mistake, and then made an excuse to be coquettish: "I knew I was wrong. I just realized that it was dark, so I ran back quickly. I didn't even rest, I ran all the time." hungry."

Xiaoxi snorted coldly: "Why didn't you starve to death?"

Xie Fengshu: "..."

"Go home quickly!"

Xie Fengshu didn't speak anymore, fearing to offend the person in front of him again, he obediently walked back behind Xiaoxi.

Just after walking for a while, he heard Xiaoxi next to him say fiercely, "Stretch out your hand."

Xie Fengshu stretched out his hand in a daze, and the next moment, a black and white bird's egg fell into Xie Fengshu's hand.

He got one for each of them that day, and gave the one to Xiaoxi.

Xie Xi didn't look at Xie Fengshu, but walked forward with her head buried, while angrily scolding others: "One more time, you will starve to death outside, I will never—"

Before he finished speaking, Xie Fengshu had jumped onto his back, buried his head and rubbed his head, and said, "Thank you, brother! You are so kind! Brother, I have walked all the way, and my feet are sore, so I can't walk anymore. "

"..." Xiaoxi couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed angrily, "Get off!"
