From the day they arrived in the provincial capital, it has been raining lightly, patteringly and continuously. The autumn rain is always accompanied by annoying wind, blowing the drizzle on your face and body, making your whole body It's chilly, and that's when you start to realize that the dry, warm autumn is finally over.

After Teacher She Junhan settled Shi Xiaochuan and the others, he left the hotel and disappeared, leaving only a lot of practice questions. Shi Xiaochuan looked at the rainwater dripping from the glass window, feeling a little worried.

Behind him, Lu Qingyun was wearing glasses, sitting at the table in neat clothes, doing exercises carefully, while Shi Chen was picked up by his father Shi Anqing, who didn't know what to do.

Lu Qingyun is a very rigid person, taciturn, with that fair and upright face, every detail is telling the people next to him, he doesn't like to be disturbed, Shi Xiaochuan has never met a peer like him, using Lingshan According to the words of the old man in the town, this child is "depressed", he doesn't look like a young man at all, he is an unpleasant type.

Shi Xiaochuan dragged the sofa to the window to block Lu Qingyun's sight, then took out the box containing Xiaobai, Xiaobai was lying in the cotton ball, sleeping comfortably, Shi Xiaochuan poked it with his fingers, It wakes up.

Xiaobai raised his head, as if he hadn't noticed the change in the environment, he was a little dazed, and didn't know what he was looking at. Shi Xiaochuan thought it was interesting, and shook the box, making Xiaobai lie on the ground. After stirring, Xiaobai finally came to his senses. It looked at Shi Xiaochuan dissatisfied, and threatened him with bared teeth.

It is said that you will be struck by lightning if you disturb some things casually. Specifically, these things are eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet.It is undoubtedly very inhumane to pull people out of sleep, not to mention that in the past, people believed that dreams had special meanings, and that all the good and bad in life could be answered in dreams. You said, when doing such an important thing , was interrupted by you, are you a heinous crime?

The two played a small game of "whack-a-mole". Shi Xiaochuan stretched out his finger to poke Xiaobai's head, but Xiaobai wanted to avoid him. Xiao Chuan also temporarily forgot the troublesome things that haunted him in his mind, such as the scales that suddenly grew on his body, such as whether Tianqiu was doing well in the town and so on.

Struggling in the cold air and refusing to hibernate, Xiaobai's movements were no longer as flexible as before, and he was poked in the head by Shi Xiaochuan several times. The more times, the little white became a little more happy, and he had the urge to run wild, vomiting Snake Xin bared his teeth and wanted to bite Shi Xiaochuan's finger, but Shi Xiaochuan didn't hide, let him bite, and even deliberately brought his finger to Xiaobai's mouth for him to bite as if it was playful.

It was probably delivered to the door, Xiaobai was not surprised, it ignored Shi Xiaochuan's finger, but flicked its tail and curled up on his finger.

After playing with it for so long, Shi Xiaochuan stopped tossing it, but let it climb up, watching Xiaobai's body as white as jade move back and forth in his hands.

Then, he stood up, Lu Qingyun over there noticed his movement, looked up at him, Shi Xiaochuan smiled at him, "I'm going out for a walk, it's too boring here."

Lu Qingyun listened to his words expressionlessly, without any expression, just continued to lower his head to do his own exercises.

Shi Xiaochuan was also used to his unresponsive reaction, so he put on his coat and walked slowly to the door.

The rain was getting lighter outside, but the drizzle did not affect the travel. Shi Xiaochuan got on the bus according to the route he had found out earlier in the morning.He didn't come out this time to really just take a walk nearby, just wandering around, but wanted to go to a place.

Three mountains and five mountains, each place has its own characteristics, and the most famous of this foggy city is its several Taoist temples.

Shi Xiaochuan has a good impression of Taoist temples, and he also knows a little about Taoist sects. The only place where he felt comfortable and happy when he was a child was Lingshan Temple. Daoist has long been regarded as a relative by him, and Shi Song is Shi Xiaochuan's elder, friend and relative.

The Taoist temple he was going to was located in the old town. Fortunately, because the Boya High School was also in the old town, the hotel they were staying in was also in the old town, so he only needed to take a bus for 10 minutes to get to his destination.

Because of the focus of development, the old city has lagged far behind the new city across the river in terms of the concentration of people and the density of high-rise buildings. You can also glimpse its former prosperity.

Everything in the new urban area is in a hurry, as if they are catching up with the footsteps of the so-called times. Everyone's face is faintly full of passion and fatigue, while the people in the old urban area are much slower in pace. In the folds and extremely complicated alleys, you can experience what is the breath of life.

The Sanqing Temple is located in these alleys. Shi Xiaochuan asked as he walked, and most people didn’t know what to ask about his questions. Shi Xiaochuan had no choice but to ask those old people who had lived in this city for decades. The people who were able to know a little more, and finally, after going around several circles, finally found the Taoist temple with the plaque of "Three Cleansing Temple".

Shi Xiaochuan looked at the dim handwriting on it, and couldn't believe it. This is what he read in the book. It used to be very popular, and the Taoist masters from all walks of life gathered in the "Three Cleansing Temple". This seems to be that An enlarged and sublimated version of the almost deserted Lingshan Temple.

The reason why Shi Xiaochuan is particularly impressed by the Sanqing Temple is that when Shi Song told him the story of catching the snake demon when he was a child, the Sanqing Temple was mentioned many times. The master of Qingguan, at that time, in order to successfully catch the snake demon, he did not hesitate to use his life to intercept the snake demon, and finally let other people seize the opportunity, catch the snake demon, and finally seal it successfully , Unfortunately, the temple master who was seriously injured couldn't be rescued in the end, and died shortly after sealing the snake demon.

When Shi Song talked about these things, he still sighed endlessly, and sighed in admiration for such a senior who stood up for the common people and righteousness.

It's a pity that at that time, Shi Xiaochuan was completely attracted by the imprisoned snake demon, and he didn't realize the inspiring and generous mood of Daoist Shi Song at all. He sympathized with the besieged snake demon from the bottom of his heart, and even hated those group Of course, he never told Shi Song about these thoughts.

If you tell him these thoughts, Shi Song will never tell him these stories again.

Thinking about these memories, Shi Xiaochuan knocked on the door lightly, but no one answered. Shi Xiaochuan waited for a while, but there was still no movement inside. He looked left and right, the alley was surrounded by walls, and the only door was Sanqing Looking at it, he was standing alone under the small tree that was as thick as a bowl at the door, in a dilemma.

According to Shi Xiaochuan's thinking, of course he wanted to make this trip worthwhile. Even though the road looked old, he still wanted to visit it, so he pushed the door tentatively.

With a "squeak", the door opened in response.
