On the second day of Yu Bai's disappearance, in the twilight, there was a sudden shower.Every household closed the curtains tightly. In the night, a figure wearing a bamboo hat walked through the heavy rain curtain and entered a temple.

This is an abandoned earth temple.In the early years, the county magistrate found another geomantic treasure to rebuild the Earth Temple, but this place was gradually abandoned, and it was no longer the state of the past.

The figure cupped its hands towards the damaged statue, and said in a clear voice, "I don't know where the gods are here, so don't blame them for staying overnight."

The person who came was the missing Yu Bai.He picked a few incense sticks that were still in good condition and put them into the incense burner, wiped the damaged statue, and found a broom from nowhere to sweep away the accumulated dust in the temple, counting it as the cost of staying here , and immediately sat down against the incense table.

It was pitch black outside the temple, with the sound of rain.Yu Bai took off his bamboo hat, and the exposed face has changed, even if Zhao Jun stood in front of him, he wouldn't recognize the young man in coir raincoat and bamboo hat as the Yu Bai he had been looking for so hard.He sat with his back against the long and narrow incense table, counting the sound of rain falling into his ears drop by drop, his mood fluctuated.

He knew that Zhao Jun was looking for him.Last night's farewell without saying goodbye was not as far away as Zhao Jun imagined, and he didn't go far away.On the contrary, he never left Taoye County from beginning to end.

Why do you want to leave?

Probably because I can't figure it out.

I can't figure out my heartbeat that is close to betrayal, I can't figure out my liking for no reason, I can't figure out the tolerance and acquiescence time and time again.

Taoye County is a small city, but also an old city.For two whole days, his footsteps never stopped.He walked through the ancient city and saw homeless people huddled in the back alleys, begging for a bite of food with the legs hugged by emaciated beggars, and vicious dogs led by servants barking arrogantly at passers-by. Stop in front of the brothel at night and look at the flower window with red lights hanging. The beauty stands in front of the window with full sleeves.

This is the world.Everyone longs for freedom, but everyone has no freedom.Food and clothing, money and silk, power and status, love and hatred, those who are hungry and cold only want a bowl of hot soup, those who have nothing to worry about are eager to raise their status, and those who have everything, but start to worry about love and hatred Tossing and turning.

Man is born in chains.

This is a feeling he has never experienced before.He seems to be an outsider in the world, watching the joys, anger, sorrows and joys with cold eyes.Some people can go back, while others only have where they came from.Yu Bai was among the crowd, looking at the pavilions and forests of Maple Leaf Villa from the perspective of a passer-by, when he turned around, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

If he had no clothes to cover his body, no food to eat, and his life was in danger—would he still reject Zhao Jun?

There was a loud thunder, and the dilapidated roof of the Earth Temple trembled a few times. Water had begun to seep in several places in the corners of the house, and there was a sense of crumbling everywhere.Yu Bai moved to the corner, slowly touching the last night that he didn't want to recall in the stormy night.

For Zhao Jun, it was an unexpected kiss, and it was also for him.

.

Near midnight, the wind and rain became stronger and stronger.Yu Bai stopped and walked in Taoye County for a day, and finally felt a little tired at this moment.But at this moment, the sound of the door opening suddenly came through the wind and rain, which woke him up from his light sleep.

I didn't expect people to come in such a big wind and rain.

Hearing footsteps, it should be a person.The man's steps were slow and heavy, revealing a sense of dejection, presumably he was a homeless and lonely person.

Yu Bai shrank back into the corner, facing the wall, and closed his eyes again.There were no lights in the Earth Temple, and it was late at night, so he was really inconspicuous. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't find that there was another person in the temple.

There were rustling sounds in front of the incense table, as if someone was offering incense and offering sacrifices.But what did you ask for? Yu Bai, in the tiredness welling up in his heart, listened to each other, but he didn't hear anything.

The man inserted the incense into the incense burner, he did not bow down, but just watched the little god quietly, without making a sound.

If he took a closer look, he would find that there were several incense sticks of different lengths inserted in the incense burner, and the incense table that should have been covered with dust seemed to have been wiped not long ago, revealing a smell similar to that of a dilapidated temple. Outrageously tidy.

But he was just too tired.

After a long time, Yu Bai heard the sound of rustling, probably that person sat down.After all, the cold night is desolate, even if it is a leaky earth temple, it is a good gift.

Why didn't he say anything?Yu Bai was thinking wildly, maybe the gods and Buddhas couldn't help him with the things he asked for.The cold wind and rain passed through the hole on the top of his head. He suddenly felt a little cold, so he picked up the bamboo hat and put it on again. Looking from a distance in the darkness, it almost blended with the mud wall and bricks.

The wind and rain are blowing, the temple is quiet, and on both sides of the incense table, these two people are sitting back to back. They have known each other for a long time, but they don't know each other.

In fact, as long as the man turns his head, he can find the person he is looking for.However, things in the world are so erratic. On such a stormy night, they were separated from each other by an incense table, and the land man in the middle still smiled, watching his last believer benevolently, but also smiling maturely. Childish and anxious.

.

"When I settle this matter, I will take you out of the palace and let's go to the rivers and lakes." The young man in the dream with sword eyebrows and starry eyes chuckled softly in his ear, "At that time, we will become knights in the rivers and lakes. Enmity, poetry and wine are romantic."

"Really?"

"I can still lie to you." The man smiled and kissed his forehead, "I have even taken a fancy to the house and villa, which is in Taoye County, where it is said that the immortal Baiyujing lives. If there is a chance, maybe You can also become a fairy and live forever."

He was about to nod when he suddenly heard thunder.

"Is it raining..." The young man murmured suspiciously, suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and quickly pulled the brocade quilt tightly.However, the thick brocade quilt could not block the raging wind and rain at all, and the man turned his back coldly, and he felt cold hands and feet after a while.

He was a little out of breath, and tried to push the emperor next to him, trying to ask if the window was open, but he only touched the rough wall.

In front of that touch, Yu Bai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his world spun.

In a blink of an eye, the extravagant and magnificent imperial palace disappeared without a trace, and what came into view was the dilapidated earthen wall mixed with grass roots in the Earth Temple.The statue of the Lord of the Earth is still standing on the incense table, smiling kindly at him.

Thunder rumbled in my ears.There was a lot of thunder and lightning tonight, as if someone had offended the Lord of Heaven and caused the Lord of Thunder and the Mother of Lightning to send down a hundred punishments.Thinking back to the 23-year-old Earth Temple in Taoye County, Yu Bai rubbed his sore eyes, feeling his heart beating wildly.

.

Bang - the door of the Earth Temple was pushed open again.It's just that this time the action was extremely rough.

Tiredness persisted all over his body, Yu Bai subconsciously pressed down on the bamboo hat.After the hasty footsteps, there was an extremely suppressed shout in my ears: "Zhao Jun!"

Shocked.

.

A few hours ago, Zhao Jun was still waiting outside Baiyujing.

Regardless of Hua Jianming's objection, he came to the peach forest outside Baiyujing alone, hoping that the person in his heart could cross the vast river and give him an explanation.However, until dusk came, the night rain fell suddenly, and the lake rose and surged, but the old man never came. There was only an egret standing by the water, combing its snow-white feathers dignifiedly.

The mountains in front of him seem close yet far away, the sky and the earth are vast, and the clouds and mists are transpiring, as if he is the only one left in the big world.The rain was like a curtain, and Zhao Jun walked slowly alone in a daze, and walked into this deserted earth temple at random.

Little did he know that the person he had been looking for for a long time was only three steps away from him.

Zhao Jun raised his eyes and saw Hua Jianming, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Have you found your master?"

Hua Jianming said, "He won't come back."

He also sat down on the ground, and his voice was ethereal and unreal: "There is thunder in the direction of Bai Yujing tonight, presumably it is a catastrophe for immortals to ascend. After this night, he will no longer be my master."

It's the immortal with a clean heart in the Nine Heavens.

The thunder rumbled, as if it was about to shatter the sky.The small Taoye County has not seen such ferocious lightning and thunder for many years.Zhao Jun and Hua Jianming looked at the tall window together, the roof was trembling for this once-in-a-century thunder calamity.

In the increasingly silent temple, he suddenly said, "You said, is it true that he won't come back?"

Hua Jianming said coldly, "Shut up."

As if he didn't hear Zhao Jun, he muttered to himself: "Then what does it mean when he kissed me?"

He is like a wind-up puppet, although no one answered him, he said vigorously: "It's raining so much tonight, I don't know where he lives, and whether he will get wet. He will be with you Is your master ascending together? No way, he is so young, how can he be so deep."

This guy is talking nonsense.Hua Jianming gritted his teeth and spit out a few words: "I tell you to shut up."

As soon as the words fell, the world suddenly became terribly silent.

The terrifying darkness is like a devil's huge mouth, trying to swallow the whole world. For a moment, the world is pale, and no gods and ghosts dare to respond.At this moment, lightning split the sky.That silver dragon tore the dark cloud to pieces, leaving only scattered fragments in an instant.

In an instant, the infinite sky was shining brightly.

Hua Jianming stared at the golden light at the end of the sky, and suddenly stopped talking.

After a long time, he said softly, "One No.80."

81 thunderstorms, the catastrophe is over, and the immortal will finally succeed.

"I thought, he's never coming back."

The author says:

Yu Bai is quite an awkward person, if he can't figure it out, he has to go into a dead end, but sometimes, it's useless to think too much (o??o)/
