The autumn wind blew yellow the leaves and scattered into the forest.

"...The world is peaceful, and we have a lot of life. The world is better, and there are fewer people robbing money on the road. His Majesty is indeed much better than Emperor Chen of our previous dynasty."

"I want me to tell you, it would be great to catch it earlier back then... I'm about to arrive in Lujia Village before? This time we'll take the fish to the north, and we can't make a big profit. Don't say more, save your energy and hurry up."

The former Fushui County of the Chen Dynasty was in autumn. When they went to Lujia Village, Qixia Mountain to collect fish and grain, the axles creaked across the rugged road on the mountain road. Vendors drove to drive donkeys and walked south through the winding winding mountain road. Although there were peace and peace, there were still robbery roads. Walking together was often relatively safer.

Dingling ~~~

The copper bell rang among the passers-by and vendors, and each person and a donkey were walking leisurely. The scholar's white robe was wrinkled, as if it had not been washed for a long time, and had dyed a lot of mud spots. However, the scholar seemed not to care much. He shaved his sleeves with broken sleeves and sat on the back of the old donkey, sometimes carrying a gourd and poured wine into his mouth. There was also a small swordsworn ornament around his waist, which seemed quite leisurely.

The old donkey following behind, swung his bald tail to drive away the flying insects, turned his tongue, lowered his head and stretched out the weeds on the roadside as he walked, rolled it into his mouth and chewed it, and a long sword hanging on his back shaking. When the hilt of the sword hit the hanging pot, a jingling sound rang out, attracting the attention of others.

Lu Liangsheng was covered in dust and the poor scholar who looked quite depressed was not noticeable. The pig Gangwen beside him was fat and thick, and was much taller than others. Walking on the road, it was like a crane standing out in a flock of chickens, and it was difficult not to pay attention.

Seeing the scholar and the black-haired man passing by, a group of big men began to gossip and whispered in a low voice.

"Where do you think this scholar came from and where are you going?"

"I know that seeing that he is dirty and old, his hair is dry and knotted, I guess he has walked a long way and has not encountered the robbery. I am afraid that it is the hero beside him."

"Oh, it's so pitiful, how about we invite him to accompany us?"

"Go away, it seems like anyone can talk about it."

At this time, the down-and-out scholar who was walking in front seemed to hear a few people talking. He turned around and smiled at them, making several fish sellers simply shut up and spoke again when the other party walked away.

"...This scholar still laughed, I'm afraid he was sick."

"Don't talk nonsense. I see that he looks like this, and it's not easy for him to show others with courtesy."

"Forget it, brothers, don't ask me to ask me. We're almost at Lujia Village. Let's go to Honglian Temple to worship first and ask for a good start!"

"Oh, I finally said something useful."

When several people drove the donkey cart halfway, a sound suddenly sounded softly: "Hey, where is the scholar?"

The other four people looked forward and found that the scholars, black men and the old donkey were gone in front of them.

"Maybe it was when I arrived at the front corner and was blocked by the rocks and trees."

From afar, they could still hear the copper ringing vaguely, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that they had hit a ghost in broad daylight.

Dingding~~~

Behind the yellowing foothills, there were more and more people around them. Lu Liangsheng called the old donkey and held the reins. Looking at the pine forests in front of him, the clouds and smoke rose up to the tree cage. There were many pilgrims coming and going on the stone steps below, riding away in a carriage, or just arrived here.

The sun is bright, the mountain wind blows, the forest is undulating and swaying. The Honglian Temple among the bustling crowds, the red walls and black tiles are traces of rain, frost and wind, and there are dead leaves on the tiles.

Lu Liangsheng pulled the old donkey up the stone steps, looking at the incense flourishing, crawling on his tired face, and smiling.

‘Fortunately, many things were sitting at the beginning, and they didn’t delay until this time, otherwise there would be no chance again.’

Looking at the temple where the incense was surrounded by the burning incense, Zhu Gangli, who was beside him, looked around and said in a muffled voice:

"This Qixia Mountain is so popular. There are two qi in the world and the world. It's not bad. It seems that you thought a lot at the beginning. People who are full of books are different. People who live here will not be able to live for a hundred years. It's a lot of thought, right?"

"It's nothing to do with hard work."

Lu Liangsheng came back to his senses and continued to walk to the temple in front. After thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "...After all, this is my home, and the roots are here."

When he went to Honglian Temple, the pilgrims who were entering and leaving saw the scholar wearing clothes and covering his mouth and nose to avoid him. Lu Liangsheng lowered his head and raised his sleeves and smelled it, and laughed silently.

"It's really interesting."

In the past, even if I didn’t take a bath for several months, I wouldn’t have any smell. On the contrary, there was also the faint fragrance of the soup that my master had washed. Now that I haven’t taken a bath for two months, it’s no wonder that people retreated and complained to the pig demon next to me.

"Why don't you remind me that I'm feeling smelly?"

Zhu Gangli stared at her big eyes, sniffed it carefully, and spread her hands.

"I'm a demon, I have a smell all over my body, how can I smell you?"

As he said that, he pushed the scholar and said, "Hurry, I want to see what you look like."

Lu Liangsheng clapped his hand back, looked to the direction of the temple, and frowned slightly.

"She should have come out."

This is not a lie. With Hong Lian's current incense and divine cultivation, it is not difficult to sense the demonic aura of Zhu Gangli and Toad Taoist reaching out, let alone being so close to the temple.

At the temple gate not far away, the pilgrims went in. The old woman carrying a basket lit incense and candles, inserted them away from the furnace, folded her hands together and knelt down to the futon, and prayed silently towards the statue above.

When I kowtowed, the divine light that ordinary people could not see flashed in the clay sculpture, turning into a graceful figure, turning up the hem of the skirt and floating to the temple gate.

‘Where does the evil spirit come from?’

The thin eyebrows frowned slightly, and walked under the eaves. The woman looked in the direction of the evil spirit. Each person and a donkey were coming towards this side. She saw her appearance clearly. Her slightly frowned eyebrows stretched out, and her cheeks showed dimples. She lifted her skirt and quickly stepped down the stone steps to meet her.

"Young Master!"

The sun shone down, and the scholar who was walking towards him seemed to have not heard anyone calling him. His eyes were looking around in the crowd for something. However, Zhu Gangli next to him saw the soul of the woman coming, took a deep breath and gently pressed the scholar's back with his elbow.

"What else are you looking for? Haven't you come here? Come over there!"

"where?"

Lu Liangsheng followed the direction he pointed, and had nothing. Suddenly he slapped his forehead and remembered that he was no longer a practitioner of Taoism and had lost all his magic power, so he naturally could not see Hong Lian in his state of soul.

Nie Honglian, who came over, also noticed that the scholar's cultivation was gone, his face changed, he used his magic power and returned to the surroundings with his long sleeves.

The noisy voices in the scholar's ears were instantly quiet. A woman in a white dress pounced in front of him, hugging his shoulders and neck tightly, and a faint fragrance penetrated her nose.

Can feel the reality hanging on her body, Lu Liangsheng gently patted her back, and saw the pig demon beside him bulging without blinking, staring at her carefully.

He coughed dryly and pulled Hong Lian out of his arms.
