Liu Lanyin rented a horse, hurriedly and slowly, and finally rushed into Changlefang before the evening drums finished beating.
She returned to the teahouse but did not find Cui Yuanzao. She walked around Zhao Jinggong Temple and found Cui Yuanzao standing in the alley behind Zhao Jinggong Temple.
The dark golden color of the sky reflected on his face, and he turned around, feeling an inexplicable sense of loneliness.
"Back? Alone?"
For some reason, Liu Lanyin's impetuous heart just now calmed down. She wanted to complain a few words, but she only said: "Ling Cong didn't have time to get here."
"I know." Cui Yuanzao was not angry, as if he was expecting it, and said, "Can you fly over with me?"
"Okay." Liu Lanyin grabbed Cui Yuanzao's belt and jumped in.
Cui Yuanzao felt the breeze blowing on his face, like a kite floating in the air. Is this the feeling of soaring?
Before he could fully appreciate it, he fell to the ground. He couldn't stand firm for a moment and staggered. He was supported by Liu Lanyin and felt slightly uncomfortable.
"It's evening class time now, we need to take this opportunity to sneak into the East Zen Monastery."
"This is not simple." Before Cui Yuanzao could finish speaking, Liu Lanyin jumped up and flew into the Dongchanyuan with Cui Yuanzao.
At this time, Cui Yuanzao realized how risky he was. Lady Liu's kung fu might have reached a state of perfection. As long as she changed her mind, he might turn into powder in an instant.
"What should we do now?" Cui Yuanzao looked at Liu Lanyin's profile.
This lady may have wanted to show the ruthlessness of a chivalrous woman, but it had no effect. Her face was full of childishness and magnanimity, as if she knew nothing about her own strength. No wonder she could be fooled by Lu Qian and his few words.
"What's wrong?" Liu Lanyin turned to look at Cui Yuanzao.
Cui Yuanzao wanted to interrupt casually, but suddenly he saw something crawling on the roof of the East Chanyuan behind Liu Lanyin, and hurriedly pointed over there, "Catch him!"
Liu Lanyin turned around to look, and jumped onto the roof to chase after the thing. The thing was so fast that Cui Yuanzao couldn't see Liu Lanyin and it after a while.
What is this? The body shape looks like a person. If it is a person, who is it?
Cui Yuanzao has a photographic memory.
During the day, he had memorized all the pilgrims who came and went in the teahouse, and everyone who came in came out. Now there should be no other people in the temple except monks.
At this time, the monks were all doing evening classes. Could there be someone else sneaking into the temple like them?
After a while, Liu Lanyin came back dejectedly.
"What? He's faster than you?" Cui Yuanzao was a little shocked. According to his observation, Liu Lanyin's Qinggong was ranked among the best in Chang'an City.
Liu Lanyin shook her head in confusion, "Not really. I almost caught up with him, but he suddenly disappeared."
Suddenly disappeared? That can only be someone who is more familiar with the terrain than Liu Lanyin.
"Let's go!" Liu Lanyin suddenly pulled Cui Yuanzao's sleeve and said angrily: "These bald donkeys must be up to something, go to the meditation hall and see, whoever is not there is the murderer!"
"No need." Cui Yuanzao opened his sleeves feeling slightly uncomfortable.
"Why?"
"How do you explain we're here?"
"Is there anything to explain? Aren't you the Cui family of Qinghe? Isn't your uncle the prime minister? Can't you be more arrogant? You've always been like this anyway!"
"You have found out everything about me. However, our constraints are greater than you think."
Cui Yuanzao slowly unpacked his baggage, spread a soft cushion on the ground, took out a blanket, wrapped it around his body, and leaned against the tree behind him.
Liu Lanyin looked at Cui Yuanzao's smooth movements and asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"
"This place is said to be haunted. I want to see how it is haunted."
"What about mine?"
"What?"
"Cushions, blankets?" Liu Lanyin widened her eyes and said, "I don't want to freeze all night."
Cui Yuanzao smiled and said, "You didn't bring it yourself."
ha? She was a person who had been released from Dali Temple Prison, and she rushed back and forth in a hurry. Where could she find these things? This stingy guy is really too much!
"Don't regret it!" Liu Lanyin shook off these words, turned around and flew away.
Cui Yuanzao looked at the girl's puffy cheeks, like a mole, and couldn't help but smile.
It would be best if she left. Although she is a heroine, she is still a woman after all. The job of keeping tabs on at night is not suitable for a woman. What's more, I don't know what kind of ghost or fox demon scared her, so why bother? Woolen cloth?
Cui Yuanzao closed his eyes to rest. About a quarter of an hour later, he suddenly heard a slight noise above his head. He quickly opened his eyes and looked up, only to see Liu Lanyin back again.
Liu Lanyin was wrapped in a blanket and leaned on a branch. She threw a fruit into her mouth leisurely, took a sip and spit out the core.
This lady is really vindictive.
Cui Yuanzao said softly helplessly: "Hey, you don't have to deliberately choose this tree, right?"
"Hmph, okay, when the fox demon comes, don't ask me to save you!" Liu Lanyin spit out another fruit core.
"I've never heard of a fox demon catching a man. You'd better be careful with yourself."
Cui Yuanzao shook his head, ignored Liu Lanyin, and moved to sit under another tree, facing the East Chanyuan.
"Tsk, I really believe in fox demons!"
Liu Lanyin stopped making any sound, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.
Cui Yuanzao opened his eyes. He didn't believe in any ghosts and foxes, but he had a secret that he had never told anyone, so he had to believe it.
The secret is that he comes from another world.
He actually couldn't remember what that world was like. He only thought that he probably drank fake Meng Po soup, and there would always be some strange pictures in his mind, including cars that he could run, ships that flew in the sky, and strange clothes. people...
Sometimes, he wonders if this is the world after ascension? That's why he went to practice Taoism. He wanted to cultivate immortality. As far away as Zhang Guolao during the Xuanzong period, as close as Xie Ziziran during the Dezong period, and Han Xiang during the Xianzong period, it is said that they all achieved Taoism and ascended.
During the long night, Cui Yuanzao and Liu Lanyin each took their own place, staring at Dongchanyuan.
Unfortunately, they waited all night, but nothing showed up.
