Looking at the golden statue of Emperor Zhenwu, Zhang Jinran was in a calm mood. After burning with anger, he returned to his innocence and reached a new state of detachment.

"What's the good news?" He resigned and turned to get his luggage.

Chen Daochang froze for a moment, the corners of his mouth surrounded by a gray beard suddenly raised.

...a premonition that absolutely nothing good will happen.

"I found your savior!" Chen Daochang pointed to the inner room.

ha?Zhang Jinran was dumbfounded and repeated: "Savior?"

Songyun Temple is a very small Taoist temple. The only main hall is dedicated to the statue of Emperor Zhenwu. The small rooms on both sides of the hall are the rooms of Zhang Jinran and Chen Yuanqing respectively. Behind the main hall are the kitchen and toilet.

Chen Daochang stood at the door of Zhang Jinran's small room and pouted at him:

"That's your savior."

Zhang Jinran dragged his luggage and walked into his hut.In a small room of more than ten square meters, there are usually only a bed and a desk, and the corners are crowded with bookshelves and wardrobes. Now there is a strange man sitting on the small bed, which makes it even more crowded.

The man was wearing a bulky high school uniform, sitting on the edge of the bed with his head down, looking at the colorful books on his knees.

Zhang Jinran felt familiar, so he stretched out his head to take a look at the pictures on the book, and snatched them blushing.

"What do you think of this..." Zhang Jinran rolled up the book and hid it behind his back, the title on the cover was faintly revealed between his fingers - "The Delicate Taifu: The Lord Is Always Attacking to Pamper You".

Chen Daochang looked behind his apprentice curiously: "I randomly found a book with pictures in your drawer to show him, why is he still reading the cover after so long? He has a bad mind, so he can read some comics. "

Zhang Jinran glared at his master, God knows that the book's cover pictured two men embracing each other.Unexpectedly, the master had a wretched and corrupt appearance on the outside, but he was still an upright gentleman on the inside. In contrast, his own thoughts were dirty, and he introspected.

"You have to thank your lifesaver." Chen Daochang walked up to the man, and tapped the back of the man's head, "He's out of his mind."

The man didn't respond to being teased like this, just sat on the bed motionless.

"Master, don't poke people." Zhang Jinran couldn't get used to the way Master looked at people with his nostrils, so he took two steps forward and slapped his claws away.

The man raised his head and looked at Zhang Jinran as if awakened from a deep sleep.

He looks 27 or [-] years old, with pale complexion, very handsome face, perfect and deep facial features exuding an indifferent atmosphere, thin red lips tightly pressed, looking at him with a pair of deep and silent eyes, more dull than ordinary people, maybe this The dullness is the only flaw on this face.

Zhang Jinran swallowed unnaturally, but couldn't look away. This was the first time in more than 20 years that he felt his soul was hit.

The man suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the red rope around his neck, and the iron ring was brought out again.He held the iron ring, golden ripples flashed across his eyes, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"You..." Zhang Jinran collected himself, the golden touch in his eyes just now could not be sure if he was dazzled.Chen Daochang hurried forward to pull, and the man let go quickly.

"Fortunately, this kid is not crazy." Chen Daochang pulled his apprentice aside and educated him: "Fortunately, this kid is not a lunatic, so don't get too close to him."

What's so special about this hoop? Why is everyone grabbing it?Zhang Jinran put the iron ring in his palm and observed carefully, but found nothing unusual, "Master, is there anything special about the amulet you gave me?"

Chen Daochang's expression was a little unnatural, "Of course you can't tell, I am soaked in the divine water bestowed by Emperor Zhenwu for 49 days and refined for seven days, and ordinary people can't buy it."

... Zhang Jinran rolled his eyes towards the sky, he didn't want to listen to this old magician's nonsense anymore.

The man regained his composure after being pushed away, and sat on the bed motionless like a big rock.

Looking at him, Zhang Jinran suddenly felt that the outfit looked familiar: "Isn't this my high school uniform?"

"Haha, yes." Chen Daochang said with a false smile: "It's a long story at this time..."

What he is most afraid of now is that the master will look at him coldly when his face darkens in the middle of his sentence.

Seeing this, Chen Daochang stopped hesitating: "Do you still remember when I was a child, I didn't let you play in the reservoir in the next town?"

He nodded. His master had indeed said that when he was a child. Hearing that there had been drownings there, almost every parent would tell their children not to go to the reservoir to play in the water.

Chen Daochang raised his head and sighed: "Oh, you were still young at that time, and you almost drowned when you secretly went swimming in the reservoir..."

"Why don't I remember this happening?" Zhang Jinran tried hard to search his memory, but unfortunately he didn't have the slightest impression of such a major event as master said about drowning.

"How old were you at that time, and you were shocked again, so how can you remember." Chen Daochang shook his head and sighed, "This kid saved you. It's a pity that he hit his head while saving someone."

Zhang Jinran's heart sank, he never thought of the reason for the man's dullness.

"Then he..." He looked at the man and said.

"Stupid. How good can a fool live. He has no clothes and no food. Now his family is gone. Thinking of our level, send him over and let me take care of him. Let him wear your clothes. Don't you?" Maybe you still want to blame it." Chen Daochang turned his back and looked out the window.

Zhang Jinran's heart was sour. A good person felt guilty because he had become like this, which made him feel ashamed.

"Hmm..." Zhang Jinran said in a hoarse voice. He collected himself and saw that the man's fingers were full of mud. He took his hand and smiled at him: "I'll take you to clean it up."

"You guys go." Chen Daochang nodded.He turned around when he heard the sound of the two people's footsteps gradually disappearing. God knows that he almost couldn't hold back his serious expression just now.

I am indeed a genius, and I can make up foolish lies seamlessly.Chen Daochang was very satisfied with his performance just now, and he didn't feel guilty at all for deceiving his apprentice.The savior is right, but the explanation is too complicated, and with the personality of the apprentice, he will not believe it at all. It is better to coax the two people together first, and we will talk about it later.

Chen Yuanqing rubbed his beard with self-movement: I am really a great master who selflessly cares about money and apprentices.

If Zhang Jinran knew what Master was thinking at this moment, he would vomit three liters of blood: Master, if you want to tie us together, you can say that you have betrothed us, there is no need to be so euphemistic.I wouldn't mind having such an object!

... Sometimes love at first sight is so unreasonable, and it will make people's integrity drop again and again.

Taking the man to the backyard, Zhang Jinran found a lot of dust on his body.

"Where did you stay so dirty?" He asked with a smile, the man was silent and let him pat off the stains on his body, Zhang Jinran didn't care if the man didn't reply, and helped him take off his school uniform. "I'll wipe you off."

Daoist Chen was secretly laughing and rejoicing, when a male voice came from outside the temple, "Is the master here?"

"Here we come!" He echoed and walked out of the temple.

A tall man was looking at the big locust tree at the door and frowning.Chen Yuanqing looked down and saw the moiré on the upper of the man's shoe, knowing that he was with him, so he raised his spirits and stepped forward to greet him.

"Are you here to visit the Taoist temple?" Daoist Chen made a bow and smiled.

The person who came was Chen Jiayu whom Zhang Jinran had met before.He looked Chen Yuanqing up and down, and said coldly: "Monastery Master, isn't your Feng Shui not very good here?"

Chen Yuanqing's heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile: "Little friend, what are you talking about?"

Chen Jiayu pointed to the three big pagoda trees at the door, "These three pagoda trees are facing the gate and the windows on the left and right. It looks like there are three sticks of incense sticking in them. Putting incense in front of the house is really heartbreaking." It is also an auspicious haunted house necessary for refining corpses.

Chen Yuanqing secretly said that it was not good, and said with a flattering smile: "Little friend Jing said it is true. I thought that sticking incense just corresponded to the burning of incense in Taoist temples. It was nature that brought magic to our Taoist temples. I didn't expect it to be evil. What a pity, what a pity..."

Is it?Chen Jiayu stopped talking, and bowed his hands and said: "The orthodox tradition passed down in the family, Chen Jiayu is the second generation of the Chen family. Don't you know the name of the Taoist?"

Chen Yuanqing was in a trance for a moment when he heard this, and suddenly he held Chen Jiayu's hands enthusiastically, with tears in his eyes: "The orthodox traditions passed down in the family are all Taoists with family backgrounds, and I am just an old Taoist priest who became a monk halfway. Everyone's surname was Chen, maybe 800 years ago. It's a family, Daoist Chen can help us more in the future, come, come, come to our Taoist temple to drink some water..."

Chen Jiayu's hands were still clasped, and Chen Yuanqing dragged them in as soon as he grabbed them. He watched the thick layer of soil on the old Taoist's hand burrowing into his palm without giving up, and was silent for a while.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Jinran's voice descended like the sound of heaven during the tug-of-war.

"Why did you come out?" Chen Daochang let go of his hand, and Chen Jiayu immediately took two steps back without any trace.

Zhang Jinran had a look of embarrassment on his face, "It's not the noise outside, I'll come out to see what you are doing." The man's figure is too good, [-] tall, slender, with well-proportioned abs, and I gave him a hurry It came out after wiping it once, so I didn't dare to stay longer.

"It's you." Chen Jiayu was happy to see an acquaintance, "Why are you here?"

Zhang Jinran ran out of the Taoist temple and nodded to him with a smile: "I live in the Taoist temple, this is my master."

"You know each other?" Chen Daochang looked suspicious.

"We met in the car back." Zhang Jinran replied casually, and after thinking for a while, he added: "He came here with the archeology department of our school to investigate ancient tombs."

Chen Jiayu smiled at Zhang Jinran: "My younger sister also graduated from your university, this time it is through her that I can follow the archeology department to help the cemetery."

"Really, it would be great if we all know each other." Daoist Chen rubbed his hands and greeted the guests awkwardly, "Would you like to visit our Taoist temple?"

"No need." The Taoist temple is only so big, and he just finished watching it outside. There is nothing strange about the layout of the three trees.

"I just came up to take a look, and I'm going to work in the tomb."

"Then you can go." Zhang Jinran squinted his eyes seeing his master looking like he was about to send the guests down the mountain respectfully.

"By the way..." Chen Jiayu glanced at Chen Yuanqing, and showed a meaningful smile: "I heard that you were arrested at the entrance of the robbery cave with a naked young man?"

Chen Daochang shook his body, and explained dryly: "That is the idiot from the neighboring village who is fostered in my house. You know how a idiot knows so much... right?" His voice trembled at the end.

Seeing the old Taoist priest's frail face of being driven mad and about to faint at any time, Chen Jiayu kindly sent him over, "Then I'm leaving, you two, goodbye!"

"Goodbye, goodbye." Chen Daochang turned around wiping off his cold sweat, and unexpectedly met the gaze of his apprentice staring at him, with disdain in the strangeness.

... This is a big misunderstanding.
