"……Um."
After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Shiming turned around and asked Bai Hao: "Do you still remember how long it took us to get here from when we passed the wooden house just now?"
Bai Hao raised his head and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "I think there will be a quarter of an hour... Ah, well, what I said may not be accurate."
"It's okay." Dongfang Shiming immediately felt confident, "I feel the same way. Well... maybe there is a way."
"Really?" Bai Hao was surprised.
Dongfang Shiming turned around, his mouth a little helpless: "It's just a possibility. This place is so secretive and strange, so we can only use common sense to test it out first."
As he spoke, he opened his silver fan and slowly walked forward with Bai Hao.
…………
On the other side, thick fog covers the depths, and the place of Qingxiu is glowing, but the clouds and mist are light, like a fairyland.
At the end of the forest is the cave sky deep in Kaixiang Temple. Within the circular wall with no edges visible on both sides and covered by trees, a majestic building is looming. There are also clear ponds and streets, which are dim and misty.
Outside the stone arch of the wall, there were two familiar figures. However, Dan Meizi looked repentant, while Xuan Cui stood beside him silently.
"Xuan Cui, please say something."
It didn't seem like he was saying a word. It's just that Dan Meizi quietly teased Xuan Kuizi, but Xuan Kuizi didn't agree.
"How about if you say a few nice words for me in front of the Guanzhu, and give you more of the new medicine next time?" Dan Meizi still didn't give up.
"You're annoying me to death. Forget it. It's better to ask for help from others than to ask for yourself."
Seeing that Xuan Cui was pretending to be mute, Dan Meizi curled his lips and turned his head to the side.
"...The temple master is doing this for your own good." After a long while, Xuan Cui whispered.
"Oh, you can still talk! It's amazing." Dan Meizi deliberately teased, "Come on, why didn't I watch the host teach him a lesson when he did all those useless things in Huichen? If you ask me, I accidentally bombed a house and lost a lot of money. Much smaller than those precious medicines he wastes every time.”
"..." Xuan Cui turned around and looked around quietly, then hesitated for a moment and then said, "...don't be anxious."
"Who's in a hurry? What do you mean?" Dan Meizi tried her best to suppress her voice to express her dissatisfaction.
"I didn't mean that...forget it, I'm here too."
Xuan Kuizi's last sentence seemed to be murmuring to himself. Dan Meizi was a little strange, but when he looked back, his expression suddenly became rich.
The person who came was none other than the Hui Chunzi he was talking about just now.
Hui Chunzi was followed by a Taoist priest, who looked like he was escorting criminals. Hui Chunzi also saw Danmei. Just as he was about to lower his head, he realized that he also recognized him and stopped hiding it.
When he also came over, Dan Meizi moved towards him: "Rejuvenation, what a coincidence, we are together again."
Huichunzi's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "Danmei, when you see me, you should call me uncle."
"Hehe, hehe, it's true that the bastard is a day student and can't live on campus anymore." Dan Meizi snorted coldly, trying her best to argue, "Please, did you take your own medicine today and your brain was damaged?"
"...Hehehehehahahahaha, what a shame." Huichunzi felt embarrassed and coughed to maintain his dignity.
Dan Mei looked at the disciple behind him and smiled: "Xuan Jie, just laugh if you want. Holding it in is not good for your health."
"Uh..." Xuan Jiezi, who was behind, stayed away from these two deities of the sect. He had no choice but to turn around and ask Xuan Cuizi next to him: "Senior brother, how long does it take for the temple master to come out?"
Xuan Kuan looked at the sundial at the door: "It's almost...it's already time."
The four people at the door looked up, only to see that there was still no one inside. There was silence.
The four of them were silent for a moment. After a while, Dan Meizi sighed and said: "The master of the temple is too unpunctual. He usually lives in seclusion, but if he stays in there all the time, I'm afraid his mind will be damaged."
"...Senior brother, don't say that..." Xuan Jiezi warned in a low voice.
Xuan Shuzi just turned his face sideways. After all, he had already gotten used to it before Hui Chunzi and the two came just now.
"...But the temple master is indeed very slow this time." Suddenly, Hui Chunzi next to him actually agreed, "...If it were normal times, that would be fine, but I suddenly thought that the medicine simmering in the furnace has not ceased to fire. If it happens again If you continue to delay, I'm afraid the water will dry up."
"Yeah, actually I have something else on hand!" When Dan Meizi saw that someone agreed, he quickly fanned the flames and took the opportunity to encourage, "I think the audience has long forgotten about reprimanding us. Waiting any longer will be fruitless, so why not …”
"How about that?"
Dan Meizi borrowed the donkey to get off the slope, narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Take advantage of the opportunity and run away!"
"Run, where are you running to?"
"Are you an idiot?" Dan Meizi couldn't help but feel puzzled by this question, "I, uh, don't tell me where I'm going, why don't you just go back to your Dingfeng villa?"
"Oh. In my opinion, I'm afraid it won't be easy to run."
Dan Meizi was very surprised by the rejuvenation behind him, and turned around as he said: "Did you hit the wrong muscle in your head? It's not like we haven't run away before..."
However, before he could even speak half of his words, he suddenly saw an extra person behind him, and he was so shocked that all his senses flew away.
Unexpectedly, before he knew it, there were no longer only three people behind him.
As for the person who was staring at him with squinted eyes at this moment, even though Dan Meizi hadn't seen his face clearly, he was already despairing.
"What's not to say? You haven't answered my question yet."
"...Guan...Guanzhu..." Dan Meizi's face was sweating, and he managed to squeeze out a sour smile.
"I was screaming like a rejuvenating child just now. Just think of me as a rejuvenating child and continue talking. I'm also curious about how many times you ran away before."
Dan Meizi waved her hands quickly: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I was talking in my sleep just now, oh... why am I so confused..." He was about to act clumsily, but was stopped by the viewer.
"Okay, Danmei, even if I [live in seclusion], I won't live like an idiot."
The viewer clapped his hands and sighed helplessly.
At this moment, Hui Chunzi and the other two junior disciples were standing nearby without saying a word. Just now, the master of the temple suddenly appeared behind them, which also startled them. But fortunately, Danmei is taking the blame, so Huichun's side won't be too miserable.
"Remember to be careful when you speak next time. As the inventor, I, the inventor of the Armor and Horse Talisman for you, should be better at using it than you." The viewer scolded Dan Meizi, and then turned his attention to Hui Chunzi next to him.
Huichunzi was obviously smarter, and he quickly confessed and leniently said: "Don't worry, Master. From now on, you must restrain yourself when refining medicine, focus on your own affairs, and improve your own abilities..."
"The clichés coming out of your mouth are completely useless." Unexpectedly, the viewer just waved his hand, "There is no need to lower yourself so much, you know the truth. Although you are not old, you are still their uncle's generation. You Always pay attention to the image inside the door.”
