"I'm so sleepy. Can we find an inn to lie down for a while?"

"It's almost dawn, let's make do with it for now."

"Tianshi Zisang, tell me honestly, have you spent all your money?" Master Yun Chu asked in a low voice.

Zi Sangning twitched the corners of his mouth, ignored her, leaned directly against the door panel, and narrowed his eyes.

There was no money left, otherwise how could he commit himself to this ruined temple.

What a coincidence, she is gone too, let's drink the breeze together from now on.

Master Yun Chu thought about it and went to find Duke Zhou without knowing it.

The morning light was dim, and when the sun jumped into Master Yun Chu's eyelids, she shook her head unconsciously, knocked it down, and fell steadily into one hand.

Master Yun Chu was woken up, and what he saw was an enlarged face. Master Yun Chu stepped back in confusion, and the back of his head hit the corner of the table next to him.

Fortunately, it didn't hurt much, but she was completely awake.

"You, you, you... what are you doing?" Master Yun Chu said incoherently.

"I, I, I...what am I doing?" Zi Sangning followed the gourd and drew the scoop.

"You're a scumbag..."

Zi Sangning raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Why don't you see what I, a slut, am doing? If I hadn't dragged you, you wouldn't have known where you fell."

"Ah?" Master Yun Chu looked at his feet. When did she fall asleep next to Sun Hao's skeleton? She was almost close to him, but fortunately Zi Sangning pulled her away.

"Hehe." Master Yun Chu's face froze, and he showed an awkward yet polite smile.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding, Master Zisang has a lot of them." Master Yun Chu smiled happily.

She is the one who dares to be embarrassed.

Zi Sangning curled his lips and said, "Little demon, you are still holding my hand."

Master Yun Chu bounced and jumped off the futon.

"Accidental accident, purely accidental."

"Junior sister has so many accidents."

"...Hehe." Another awkward but polite giggle.

Zi Sangning retracted his hand and stood up. The bright sunshine hit the side of his face really well. The outline was clear and detailed under the modification of the side light, making it naturally full.

Master Yunchu said to calm down the atmosphere: "Master Zisang, where is Brother Huangfu?"

"Junior Master, I'm here." A voice came from outside the ruined temple.

Huangfu Zhao stepped into the temple and brought the sunlight into the temple hall, shining on the face of the Bodhisattva on the high platform. The dust on the Bodhisattva's face became more and more obvious.

"Brother Huangfu."

Huangfu Zhao said excitedly: "I went out for a walk and found a place that can fill my stomach, is cheap and is relatively remote."

He repeated again: "It's very cheap."

"Ah?" Could it be that he overheard her conversation with Zi Sangning yesterday? Or was he already as strapped for money as Zi Sangning?

"Walk."

Master Yun Chu thought about it and realized that he had already arrived at that place.

The three of them sat on wooden stools and waited for the stall owner to order noodles.

It was indeed a remote place. Huangfu Zhao led them through alleys and alleys three times before finding the noodle stall.

However, the boss's business is still booming, there are not too many diners, not too busy, and the business will not be desolate and ruin his livelihood. It is just right if there is no epidemic or not.

After a while, the stall owner quickly placed three steaming bowls of noodles in front of them.

"My dear guests, the noodle soup you want is ready."

Master Yun Chu came close to the noodle bowl, smelled it, and said with a smile: "It smells good, it must be delicious. Brother Huangfu has paid careful attention."

Huangfu Zhao smiled brightly and picked up the noodles: "I have a cousin name - Jinyu. From now on, you can call me by my cousin name or by my first name."

"Zhao means Ri Ming. As his name suggests, he is graceful and radiant." Master Yun Chu's eyes lit up and a smile flashed across his face.

"Jin Yu is really a good name."

Zi Sangning said nothing, lowered his eyes, quietly picked up the noodles, blew on them, and put them into his mouth.

"Brother Zisang, what is your cousin's name?" Huangfu Zhao asked.

"Mu Heng." Zi Sangning paused for a moment, then said softly.

Master Yun Chu recited a few words softly and said: "The name Mu Heng matches my senior brother very well. He is as noble as the sun and as noble as Heng Jade. He is just like his name, and he is just like his name."

Master Yun Chu boasted without blushing.

Zi Sangning's eyes flickered to her body.

"The first master is right. The name Mu Heng is indeed a good match for Brother Sang. The first master, the first master, is full of energy and is born upward, which is very good."

Master Yun Chu held a bowl and ate noodles without saying a word.

"This noodle soup is so good, but I feel like it's almost boring." Master Yun Chu held the bowl of noodles and took a big sip of the soup.

"Really?" Huangfu Zhao also took a bite and did not hide his praise for it: "It's no worse than the one in Kyoto. It even tastes better than the noodle stall that Xiao Xuan and we often went to in Bodhi Phantom."

When Huangfu Zhao mentioned the Bodhi Phantom, Zi Sangning's hand holding the chopsticks froze slightly, then returned to normal.

"Really? It tastes really good, but I always feel it's a bit boring when I taste it." Master Yun Chu said after taking another sip.

Huangfu Zhao seemed to understand something.

"Junior Master, I think it is because you have been in the mountains and failed to adapt to the food down the mountain after coming down."

"I think so too." Master Yun Chu nodded.

She had hinted and made it so obvious. Did Zi Sangning understand what she meant? She wanted to go home, she wanted to go back to Qingsang County.

Her demon power has not yet recovered, and it will be difficult if Zi Sangning lied to her about what she said earlier.

Huangfu Zhao said with a smile: "Then when we return to Kyoto, I will treat you to taste the delicious food in Kyoto. It will never be worse than when you were in the mountains."

"Okay, okay." Master Yun Chu's eyes lit up: "I heard that Kyoto is very prosperous, but I have never seen it."

"It's a small matter, hahaha, you can wander around Kyoto."

The corners of Zi Sangning's lips were raised slightly, with a hint of a faint smile.

Taken the bait.

At noon, the sun shines on every corner of the mansion. Occasionally, a breeze blows through, and the leaves sway gently, bringing a bit of cool breeze.

The weather in March is already a bit hot.

Aunt Li wiped the sweat from the tip of her nose with a handkerchief, and quickly took the medicine bowl to avoid the bright sun.

"Mother Li, long time no see. How are you?"

"You, you..." The expression on Mammy Li's face froze, and her face was full of disbelief: "Why are you here? You are not dead?"

Looking at Aunt Li's expression, Master Yun Chu understood something. It turned out that the nine-tailed cat demon was running towards them last night.

"Mama Li cares about me so much. I can't bear to die. Aren't I rushing back from the underworld to see Mammy Li again?"

Master Yun Chu raised the corners of his lips and said, "Aunt Li, look at what I have in my hand."

Aunt Li's face was horrified. Master Yun Chu was holding the body of the nine-tailed cat demon, and her face was dripping with sweat.

Aunt Li screamed: "What is this?"

"Don't you know, Aunt Li? This is a nine-tailed cat demon."

"What are you talking about, you damn girl..." Master Yun Chu didn't wait for her to finish speaking, before he stepped forward and hit Mammy Li on the back of her neck.

She collapsed in Master Yun Chu's arms on the spot.

"Come out."

Zi Sangning and two others appeared in a flash.

Master Yun Chu said: "I'm not talking about you."

"Miss Su, come out."

The three of them took a closer look and saw that Su Yiyi had appeared in the sky on the roof, with a black air coming out of her body.

The sky became pitch black without a trace of light, as if it had been dyed with thick ink.

Miss Su said bitterly, her resentment rising to the sky: "You had to force me to show up, and you dared to harm the cat demon. Today will be your burial place."

"It seems that Miss Su is really possessed by a ghost."

"I'll leave it to you. I'll take Nanny Li and step aside."

Master Yun Chu raised his head and looked at the sky. The color of the sky changed: "It is noon now, when the Yin Qi is at its weakest. Looking at the chaos in her body, there shouldn't be any big problem in taking her down."

Huangfu Zhao raised his sword and stepped forward. The black energy from Miss Su's body rushed towards her. The sword energy collided with the black energy, making a harsh friction sound.

Zi Sangning followed closely behind, with fluttering clothes and a talisman in his hand, using the immortal power in his body to force Miss Su to retreat step by step into the courtyard.

The air was filled with a strong evil spirit, and Master Yun Chu felt a chill in her body. It took a lot of strength for her to pull Aunt Li and hide behind the pillar.

Miss Su screamed, and the black air became more intense, turning into a huge ghost and rushing towards the three of them with its teeth and claws.

Huangfu Zhao formed a seal with his hands, pinched the magic formula, and activated the hidden formation.

The formation firmly locked the ghost's movements, and the ghost made a sharp cry in the formation, pulling desperately, and the light and shadow kept colliding.

Zi Sangning's eyes turned cold, and the jade sword in his hand turned into a ray of light, piercing the ghost's vitals.

For a moment, light splashed everywhere, the ghost let out a shrill scream, and then the black energy dissipated in the air.

The bright sun shone brightly on Miss Su, and she immediately fell from the air.

Huangfu Zhao dragged her with his magic power and landed lightly on the ground.

She closed her eyes tightly, her face was pale, and she was in great pain, and her whole body was curled up together.

Mr. Su ran in, crying as he ran, chasing the panting housekeeper and boy.

Master Yun Chu quickly stopped the housekeeper and handed Nanny Li over to him.

"Yiyi, Yiyi, my poor little girl."

Mr. Su cried and was about to pounce on him, his fat face covered with sweat, but Huangfu Zhao blocked him with his sword.

"Mr. Su, wait a minute! The situation is unknown now. I'm afraid the ghost may hurt you. Master Su should wait until we get rid of the evil spirits in Miss Su."

"Okay, okay..." Mr. Su stepped back, sweating all over his body.

"Those three young heroes, when will my little girl get better? She is weak and cannot bear it." Mr. Su said, his eyes red again: "It's so pitiful that my little girl has suffered this."

"Master Su, don't worry, I will try to rescue Master Su later." Huangfu Zhao was afraid that the sword energy would hurt Master Su, so after he backed away a little, he sheathed his sword.

Huangfu Zhao urged his immortal power to slowly penetrate into Su Yiyi's body, only to find that a breath that did not belong to her flowed through Su Yiyi's body, entangled, as if the two had merged into one.

Huangfu Zhao slightly withdrew his immortal power in surprise, raised his eyes and met Zi Sangning's eyes.

"Seal her up and don't let her escape."

Huangfu Zhao nodded understandingly.

Two rays of white light rose and slowly poured into Su Yiyi's body. Her face became as pale and colorless as a paper figure.

She closed her eyes tightly, gritted her teeth, and tried her best to endure the unbearable pain.

"You two young heroes, how is my little girl? Is she okay?" Mr. Su grabbed Zi Sangning's sleeve in a hurry. His heart was like an ant on a hot pot. He was so anxious that he could never calm down.

"Daddy, it hurts so much..." A weak and soft voice came in a low voice.

"Yiyi, my poor daughter..." Master Su rushed towards her as soon as he heard Su Yiyi's voice.

Zi Sangning and the others had no choice but to withdraw their immortal power.

He gently picked up her shoulders and pulled her into his arms, with hot tears on his wrinkled face.

"Daddy..."

"Ahhhh..."
