He Yun slept lightly until midnight, when he suddenly felt a slippery, slow-moving cylindrical object in his hand.

He raised his lead-heavy eyelids in a daze, and through the moonlight coming in through the old paper window, he saw a thick and long black snake bending down and opening its bloody mouth to him, maybe it didn't think of it either. He will wake up, one person and one snake will stop at the same time, looking at each other silently.

The big snake's eyes shone with a cold golden light, and it spat out scarlet apricots in his face.

"Ahhhhhhh!" He Yunqing, who finally came to his senses, felt his scalp tingle and fell to the bottom of the bed in fright. Although the pain made tears burst out, he couldn't care less about it at the moment, only knowing that he was dying Climbing towards the door, the big snake gritted its sharp fangs and wanted to catch up, but the moment it leaned out, it turned around and quickly climbed up the wall.

He Yunqing opened the door in a panic, and happened to bump into Yan Junyi who rushed over after hearing his screams.

"What's your name?" Yan Junyi suddenly grabbed his wrist and asked coldly.

He Yunqing was still in shock, pointing to the bed with trembling fingers, while closing her eyes tightly, she dared not look at it, "Snake...snake...there is such a big snake over there!"

"Snake?" Yan Junyi let him go and walked over, but he didn't see anything on the other bed. He glanced up and saw a thick black snake crawling on the beam, just about to sneak away.The big snake had already sensed something was wrong, and burrowed towards a hole on the roof at an even faster speed.

"Beast, you still want to run!" Yan Junyi yelled, raised his sword and flew up, pierced the sharp sword into the snake's belly, grabbed the tail with one hand, and threw the big snake off the ground with a little force.

"Hiss!" The black snake roared in pain, and before it could struggle, Yan Junyi raised the long sword in his hand, twisted it mercilessly, and smashed his head along the snake's belly without a trace of muddy, black and red plasma. It sprayed out like magma.

On the other side, He Yunqing squatted on the ground with her head in her arms because she was too scared. She didn't know that the other party had subdued the black snake, and said worriedly, "That... Daoist Yan, be careful~"

"Okay, go to sleep." Yan Junyi grabbed the big black snake that wanted to have a full meal, but was about to go out.

"Ah?" He Yun raised his eyes timidly, and saw that the thick black snake was dying in his hands, and when he saw the blood on the ground, his stomach was churning, and he hurriedly chased him to stop him, "Daoist Yan, please wait." Down."

"What's the matter with you?" Yan Junyi looked at him coldly.

He Yun swallowed lightly, then pointed to the hole in the roof, and said frightenedly, "What if... you see there are other big snakes coming?"

Yan Junyi said expressionlessly, "You shout, and I will come over."

"No, it's not good, I'm bothering you." He Yun looked at the other person's face lightly, while squeezing a smile, "Otherwise, I'll come to your place tonight to make do with it, I don't mind."

"..." Yan Junyi's face turned cold again, "I mind!"

For the sake of his own life, He Yunqing simply said shamelessly, "Don't be so heartless, Taoist priest, Taoist priest, don't be so heartless, the so-called fate to meet thousands of miles away, we are also destined."

Yan Junyi seemed to be slightly stagnant, then looked at him for a while, and finally "hummed", walked to his room and opened the door to enter.

Seeing that he didn't refuse again, He Yun was overjoyed, and continued to follow in cheekily.

As soon as I entered, I found that the other party's room was also very simple, with no decorations, and except for the bed, which was slightly clean, the surrounding area was extremely messy!Look at the three feet of dust on the table, or it has not been cleaned at all!This is completely inconsistent with Yan Junyi's clean image.

"Daoist Yan, don't you think you need to tidy up?" He Yunqing barely had a place to rest his feet, helped up the dilapidated chair that fell on the ground, ate a bit of ashes from his nose, and sneezed several times.

"I don't think so." Yan Junyi said lightly.

He Yun choked slightly, and had no choice but to say, "Okay."

When he sat on the bed, Yan Junyi took out a yellow talisman and pasted it on the head of the bed.

Out of curiosity, He Yunqing asked shamelessly, "Hey, what is this?"

"Dispel evil spirits." After speaking briefly, Yan Junyi turned around and left.

He Yunqing felt nervous for a while, she stood up "shua" and wanted to catch up, but because she was too anxious, she didn't see the messy gauze on the ground.

"Ah!" As he screamed, he tripped and fell to the ground, and a dog gnawed shit.Yan Junyi heard the movement behind him, turned his head and looked down at him.

He Yun blinked lightly, and his face gradually became hot. Although he was a little embarrassed, he still didn't forget to ask, "Master Dao, where are you going?"

Yan Junyi said lightly, "You can sleep here tonight, no snakes will come in here."

"How do you know you can't?" He Yunqing was timid in his heart, how could he dare to stay alone.

Yan Junyi looked down at him, a cold light flashed slightly, and a strange arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Unless they don't want to die."

"......" Seeing his smile, He Yunqing shuddered inexplicably, or since the other party said so, he also believed that this room should be safe.

He quickly got up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Daoist Yan."

"It's getting late, you should rest quickly, and leave as soon as it dawns." After saying that, Yan Junyi walked out without looking back.

He Yun closed the door lightly, shook his head suddenly with a smile, and said to himself, "Could it be that the Taoist priest made his room specially for me before going out? Although he always looks indifferent, his heart is still very warm~ "

……

Day two.

At dawn, when Yan Junyi came back wearing morning dew, he saw that the scholar of He Yunqing hadn't left yet. Instead, he was hanging up the manuscripts in the yard with a few ropes in mid-air. His eyebrows furrowed instantly.

"Good morning, Daoist Yan." He Yunqing greeted him when he saw him, then hummed a little tune and continued with the matter at hand.

But Yan Junyi's fair and handsome face was completely dark as a pan, and he asked very bluntly, "What are you doing?"

"Oh." He Yunqing replied, "I think the weather is good today, so I took out the story I created with all my painstaking efforts, so as not to spoil it if there are worms."

Seeing that he was still so leisurely, Yan Junyi continued patiently, "Then when will you leave?"

"Leave? Why should I leave?" He Yunqing opened his eyes wide, not understanding why the other party always drove him away, "I found out that this Taoist temple is quite big, and it's not far from Fengting Town. I've already planned to stay here for a long time. Stay here. Don’t worry, I’ve packed your room for you, of course as a reward for last night.”

"You want to live here..." Yan Junyi looked at him blankly as if he hadn't digested his words.

"That's right, we will be neighbors from now on, Daoist Yan will take care of you in the future." He Yunqing did not forget to bow his hands while speaking.

"Let's go, before dark, immediately!" But Yan Junyi didn't listen to his tricks, he stepped forward and put the hilt of his sword against his neck and said, "This is not the place for you to stay!"

"Why should I leave? I won't leave!" He Yunqing resolutely stated his position. The two of them stared at each other for a while, and finally said awkwardly, "...To tell you the truth, I really am With little money in my pocket, I have nowhere to go."

"Go!" Yan Junyi said directly, no longer wanting to talk nonsense with him.

"Hmph, I'm not leaving." And He Yunqing also resolutely refused, with a kind of longing in his eyes, "Fengting Town can be said to be a popular literary style, so many scholars rush there, just for one day, I can write a book that is famous all over the world. I came here especially because I hope that in the future, the stories I write will meet its Bole, but before that, I will hide in the deep mountains and old forests and write them first, and then realize this great dream.”

"You don't have your dreams here! Go, if you stay here again, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for its Bole." Knowing that talking too much is useless, Yan Junyi unceremoniously tore off his manuscript and threw it on the ground.

"Alas, why are you so rude?" He Yunqing hurriedly bent over to pick it up, afraid of being blown away by the wind.

Yan Junyi ignored him and continued to chase people away, "Then go quickly."

"Don't go!" He Yunqing hugged his precious paper, with a heartache on his face, but he still straightened his back and said stubbornly, "And this Taoist temple is not owned by you, a Taoist priest! What right do you have to drive me away? I was in vain last night I still think you are a good person, and you want to occupy this place alone."

"You! Hmph!" Seeing that the scholar wronged him without knowing what to do, Yan Junyi was in a hurry and couldn't refute.

"Tsk tsk, how stingy." Looking at his leaving back, He Yun patted the dust off the paper in his arms, "Fortunately, you are all fine."

After drying it again, he walked around the Taoist temple and saw a well outside the long-abandoned kitchen. The water in the well was actually very clear.

He was so happy that he fetched water and cleaned up the kitchen briefly. He found not only pots, spoons and pans, but also a hoe and a bag of vegetable seeds.

Thinking that there happened to be an open space and a lotus pond in the yard, I couldn't help showing joy, and said to myself, "Well, although I am a scholar, I don't work and I don't have food. Since I have decided to live here for a long time, I will Let me experience the fun of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence."

Just do what you say, and He Yunqing is unambiguous, rolling up his sleeves and turning up the dirt.Because my family was not well off since I was a child, farm work is not a problem, after everything is done.I was also pleasantly surprised to find some wild vegetables, so I took out the dry food and boiled a pot of vegetable paste to make a full meal.

After midnight, he cleaned the dusty room again, wiped away the blood on the floor, and finally repaired the hole in the roof.

When everything is done and sit down, the sunset glow in the evening spills in through the hollowed-out windows.He Yun stretched his sore shins lightly, looked at the clean and tidy room that he had tidied up, and sighed with satisfaction, feeling that today was really a fulfilling day.

Anyway, it's still early to go to bed, just when I spread out the paper and ink and was about to write an article.However, the phoenix eyes full of autumn water of the beauty in white from last night emerged in my mind. I don't know if such a beauty will have a chance to meet again. Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh softly, "Oh, I don't know her name..."

Thinking of this, he took out a long piece of drawing paper from the bookcase, closed his eyes and recalled the appearance of the beauty in white, licked the tip of the brush, and carefully wrote strokes on the paper.

After nearly a stick of incense, He Yunqing finally put down his pen.Because I was too focused on painting, I saw that it was getting dark outside, so I hurriedly lit the oil lamp.

He carefully picked up the drawing and admired it. Under the jumping light, a beautiful woman with lowered eyes was drawn on the paper with a shy smile.Then he couldn't help murmuring, "There are beauties in the north who are peerless and independent. Once you look at the city of Qingren, then you look at the country of Qingren. The beauties are really wonderful, beautiful~"

"Bang." Just as He Yunqing was immersed in it, Yan Junyi, who had disappeared for a day, suddenly opened the door and walked in with strides, which frightened him into paleness.

"You...what are you going to do?" Seeing the visitor staring at him, He Baiyi hastily hid the painting behind him, fearing that the Taoist priest whose personality did not match his handsome appearance would go crazy again and throw his things, urging him Chase him away.

However, Yan Junyi just threw something wrapped in a lotus leaf on the table, squinted his eyes again and warned, "I tell you, if you want to live here, don't come out when you hear any noise at night!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around smartly without dragging his feet, and even walked away with the door forcefully.

"It's really inexplicable." He Yun scratched his head lightly, unable to understand his behavior.Looking at the things he threw, I thought: Is it a habit for this person to throw things?

I walked over and put down the painting, picked it up curiously and smelled it, and found it quite fragrant.I couldn't help but opened it, and it turned out to be half a roast chicken, and it just so happened that I only ate it all day, and my stomach growled at the right time.

"No, no, no, no reward for nothing, a gentleman doesn't eat food that comes at you." He Yunqing muttered silently, and hurriedly pushed the roast chicken away from him, but the scent that wafted from him really made his saliva overflow. out.

He stared straight at the fat, golden half chicken and swallowed his saliva.Thoughts were fighting against it, but in the end they were defeated because the fragrance was too strong and their stomachs became more hungry.

But still a little unwilling to succumb to its lewd power, and found an excuse, "The ancients said, waste is a shame. I am a gentleman, how can I do such a shameful behavior, so if I eat it, I will be useless." Waste, no waste must be right."

As soon as he convinced himself, he couldn't wait to put the roast chicken into his mouth and gnaw on it. When he stuffed it into his mouth, he couldn't help but praise, "It's delicious, it smells so good, and it's the best in the world."

And Yan Junyi, who was outside the yard, couldn't help shaking his head with a smile when he heard his silly words.

But all of a sudden, there was a sound of rustling leaves from outside, which made his face freeze, and he said sharply, "Don't even think about coming out to make trouble again!"

After speaking, he jumped, like a big roc spreading its wings, he jumped out of the wall and chased him out.
