Fishing succubus is good at raising fish

Chapter 40: A 3-Year Covenant

On the day of bidding farewell to Qiu Yan, the bleak wind blew by, causing a hint of chill, and the road from the gate of the house to the gate of the city was extremely deserted and quiet.

The coachman was a middle-aged man, wearing a bamboo hat, his expression could not be seen clearly. Beside the horse stood a book boy, who was waiting on the spot with a basket of books on his back.

When we parted, it was quite sad.

The old lady covered her face and wept, unable to recover. Qiu Zi supported her and tried to dissuade and comfort her repeatedly, but the effect was not good.

"Brother, come and persuade me!" Qiu Zi shouted helplessly.

Yin Yuye looked at Shen Shaotang, then turned around and walked towards the old lady. His words distracted the old lady's sad emotions a little.

Qiu Yan withdrew his gaze and said with a smile: "Everyone came to see me off today, how is it like parting from life to death?"

His body has almost recovered, and his words and deeds are the same as before, as if that period of depression was an episode, leaving him no trace.

Regarding this, Shen Shaotang was also relieved.

"Be careful on the road," he said.

Qiu Yan didn't speak, and didn't leave immediately, but looked at him with elusive eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Shaotang wondered.

"Since eldest brother came back, too many changes have taken place, so I often think about a strange question." Qiu Yan smiled bitterly.

"what is the problem?"

"Is he... really my elder brother?"

Shen Shaotang was slightly stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Qiu Yan's back was far away, gradually disappearing with the cold wind and dead leaves all over the ground.

Inexplicably, he recalled that night when he was trapped on Yaoshan Mountain, when Qiu Yan went out in the rain to look for food, and when he came back with ragged clothes and bruises, he held a bag full of red fruits in front of him.

He was always impressed by those sincere and bright eyes in the dark night.

"Host, time is running out, please complete the task of 'Awakening the Physique of Immortal Cultivation' as soon as possible."

With the sound of the system, the red progress bar flickered in my mind, and it was half of the mission of Aizawa Temple's calamity.

Shen Shaotang sighed in his heart, if the task is to 'awaken the devil's physique', then just talk to Yin Yuye directly, or if the other party is not by his side, then things will be much easier to handle.

But Yin Yuye just stared at him.

……

Time passed quickly until night fell.

While chatting at dinner, Shen Shaotang talked about Yuan Shuo's recent situation side-by-side. He and Qiu Yan are friends and classmates. It is said that Yuan Shuo went to Beijing with him because he could not find the way to seek immortality.

Participating in scientific research in a beautiful name is actually traveling in mountains and rivers.

As he spoke, he talked about the interesting stories of the three of them on Yaoshan Mountain, expressing their desire to go there again.When the old lady heard that he wanted to go to Yaoshan again, she didn't agree immediately, but hesitated slightly, and hesitated to speak.

"Hey, it's a pity to say that after Yaoshan experienced the flood, all the villagers moved out, and the road up the mountain was blocked by rocks. It is said that the temple on the mountain has also been turned into ruins..."

Shen Shaotang's fingers couldn't help shaking when he heard it, and he almost couldn't hold the bowl, but fortunately, Yin Yuye helped him hold it up.

He couldn't believe the facts, and murmured: "However, I heard that there was no casualty near Yaoshan Temple during the flood."

The old lady sighed, put down the bowls and chopsticks, and continued: "Afterwards, no one went to offer incense...there is no Yaoshan Temple in this world."

She looked at Shen Shaotang, her eyes became more serious, and she said, "Yan'er, it's good to have a heart, but don't be obsessed."

"..."

how could this be...

Shen Shaotang felt that he was trapped in an invisible cage, and no matter what, he could not break free from the arrangement called fate.His expression suddenly dimmed, his eyes were full of nothingness, like a body that had lost its soul.

Yin Yuye's heart was empty. At that moment, he felt that he was going to lose the person in front of him.

He grabbed Shen Shaotang's wrist, forced him to look at himself, and said: "Life is short like a fly, you should enjoy yourself in time."

Shen Shaotang raised his head numbly, he couldn't see what this man was thinking, but the voice seemed to have a magical power, which gradually calmed his uneasy emotions.

Shen Shaotang lowered his eyes in a daze, and suddenly he forgot why he was so uneasy, why he was so attached to Yaoshan, did he have to see the statue?Ordinary people's life is but a moment to them, maybe they have forgotten him long ago...

"Attention the host! You are being controlled by the mind, once again, you are being controlled by the mind."

Shen Shaotang's mind immediately recovered, the mist in his eyes dissipated, and he regained his clarity.

"Xiaoyan, are you still stubborn?" Yin Yuye asked softly.

I saw Shen Shaotang frowning slightly, and his outline was clearly reflected in his eyes.

"I..." Shen Shaotang looked as if he was remembering, but he seemed very confused and difficult, and finally he shook his head helplessly: "I don't remember."

"That's good."

Seeing this, the old lady gave Yin Yuye a wink, and said: "He is in a bad mood recently, so you should take care of him more, don't be tired of the office all the time, if he wants to ask for a wish, you can go there together sometime .”

"Fifty miles away, there is a Nanshan Temple that burns incense all the year round. It is also very good to go there." She said with a smile.

……

Three days later, Yin Yuye relinquished his duties and personally accompanied him to the Nanshan Temple. The road was very flat and easy to walk, and there was a constant stream of pilgrims coming to and from the temple every day.

The hustle and bustle is like a busy city, and there is no trace of purity in the world. ——This is the true thought in Shen Shaotang's heart when he saw the temple.

The little monk who entertained the guests asked them to buy a lot of "tributes". The odds and ends plus the incense fee was not a small amount, but Yin Yuye took out his money bag without moving his eyes.

Later, the abbot talked with them with a smile, telling some well-known Buddhist stories and their connection with this temple.

Shen Shaotang listened absent-mindedly. He looked at the golden Buddha statues one after another, but his heart couldn't move.

"The two benefactors follow me to get the safety bag." The abbot said.

He turned his eyes and saw that Shen Shaotang didn't respond, and when he was about to remind him, another person reached out to stop him.

Yin Yuye smiled alienatedly, "My wife stays here, and I can go with you."

The abbot looked at Shen Shaotang, then looked back at him, and nodded in surprise.

Shen Shaotang stood on the spot, thought for a while, then walked to the altar, knelt on the futon, and clasped his hands.

He closed his eyes, looking for answers in the darkness.

However, it was still hard to calm down in his heart. He thought of that temple, that tall statue, the eyes of pity, the white belt... that majestic sword.

——Since you sincerely seek the Tao, you must go up the mountain to offer incense for a period of three years, until the god statue no longer appears after a hundred years.

Suddenly, Shen Shaotang felt a little bit between his brows, faintly hot.

A fingertip dropped slightly, and the fingertips were slightly cold, and the heat was suddenly dissipated.

Shen Shaotang's heart was beating fast, didn't it... that fairy appeared?

"it's me."

He tried to open his eyes, but found that he couldn't move, and he couldn't even make a sound from his throat.

"A three-year agreement, don't break your promise." Gu Qinglun withdrew his hand, his voice seemed not so cold, "I'll wait for you to come to me, Yin Che."

He said the last two words very lightly.

The human world has its own rules, and the outside world cannot forcibly interfere, but Yin Yuye is in it, and deliberately conceals Yin Che's aura.

Therefore, Gu Qinglun was in Tianxue Mountain, so he could only find Yin Che with a touch of divine sense.

Sensing that the fairy was about to disappear, Shen Shaotang hurriedly asked in his heart: "I...how can I find you?"

"Focus on the Tao, don't be emotional."

If he is devoted to the righteous way, he will not be trapped by worldly love. When the time comes, his understanding will be stronger, and it will be easy to enlighten Yin Che.

Just as Shen Shaotang was about to say something, but the aura of the god disappeared in an instant, and there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door.

Yin Yuye stared coldly at a certain direction. At this time, Shen Shaotang was the only one kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in the meditation room.

"You're here." Shen Shaotang looked up at him.

"Who was here just now?"

Confusion flashed across Shen Shaotang's eyes, "There is no one, who do you... hope to come?"

"..." Yin Yuye looked at him silently for a moment, then lit two sticks of incense, and the ends of the sticks sank into the altar.

"It's my fault, did it scare you?" He said softly with his expression melting like ice.

Shen Shaotang shook his head.

They returned to Qiu's house from Nanshan Temple, it was already very late, the lights in the house were all extinguished, and the journey was quiet.

As soon as Shen Shaotang got off the carriage, he felt a chill and couldn't help shivering.

The next moment, a white fox cloak was draped over his shoulders. It turned out that Yin Yuye turned around to get it.

"Come into the house quickly, don't catch a cold." He whispered.

Then, he hugged Shen Shaotang into the room, let him sit on a chair, and looked at him with lowered eyebrows.

Shen Shaotang's face turned pale slightly, and he didn't look very well.

Yin Yuye originally wanted to find an attendant, but he thought it would take time to go back and forth, so he went into the kitchen by himself and made a bowl of ginger soup with the ingredients himself.

He didn't know how to do it originally, but when he thought about it, he didn't need to think about the steps at all. The memory of "Ju He" told him how to do it.

After Shen Shaotang obediently drank the ginger soup, she cried out that she was sleepy, and soon fell asleep in Yin Yuye's arms.

However, maybe it was the sudden cold wind that night, which made Shen Shaotang catch the cold.

For the next few days, Shen Shaotang spent in a daze.
