Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!

  Chapter 297 Three Scholars

  Shoutian County, Guhuai Town, abandoned temple.

  In the south of Jizhou, heavy rain poured down, and the green grass had already been drenched into mud by the rain. The emerald green leaves stood vertically in the rain, and were washed lifeless by the rain.

  The sky was gray and overwhelming, as if darkness would cover it at any moment.

  The scholar looked in a hurry, with a coir raincoat and hat, holding a book wrapped in cloth in his arms, he ran wildly in the pouring rain.

  He saw the abandoned temple not far away, his eyes lit up, he hugged the book in his arms, quickened his pace, and ran over in a hurry.

  Hoo hoo—

  The scholar was panting tiredly, so he closed the doors and windows tightly. Although the temple was dilapidated, it was a blessing in misfortune.

  He opened the package and checked whether the book was wet. Perhaps it was well protected, but the book was still dry.

  The scholar lit the oil lamp, and with the help of the dim oil lamp, read out softly.

  A beautiful figure suddenly appeared behind the scholar, with a charming smile on the corner of her mouth, she patted the scholar on the back.

  When the scholar saw Qianying's appearance, he couldn't help laughing as if he had been fascinated.

  After the heavy rain, the exhausted scholar left the abandoned temple.

  …

  Three figures dressed as scholars walked in the muddy ground, one foot deep and the other shallow, quite embarrassed.

   "Why is this road so difficult?" One of the scholar figures complained.

  Another figure rolled his eyes: "Let's make do, don't be dissatisfied, isn't this condition much better than when we were in the dense forest?"

"Right."

  The third figure explained: "I heard that there was a heavy rain yesterday that has never happened in ten years. It completely watered Guhuai Town, and the river overflowed the river bank. I heard that it will rain again tonight."

   "Tsk, I don't think this is a good sign."

  Lu Yang pointed at the temple and said with a smile: "That's just right. There is a temple in front of it. Although it is a bit broken, the Buddha statue should still be there. You can go to worship while staying overnight."

   "Reorganize the plan. According to the existing information, the other party is very vigilant and will not show up easily. Moreover, the other party is a ghost and has a good escape method, so it is not easy to be caught."

   "The strength of the female ghost should be in the foundation building period, and the specific realm is unknown."

   "If the female ghost appears, you must wait until you are sure that the other party will not run away before catching her!"

   "We are now scholars who have entered the Imperial City to gain fame. We will stay here for one night and take this opportunity to lure the female ghost to show up!"

   "So far, I haven't received news of the female ghost killing people. When catching the female ghost, don't kill me."

"I have no experience of going out before. Ever since I saw Master imprisoned, I have understood the importance of using a pseudonym in the outside world, so that people who are ashamed will not lose Daoist sect. Check your names again. My name is Lu Yiyang. .”

   "My name is Long Jingzhou."

   "My name is Li Hao."

  The three of them thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong with the plan, so they restrained their breath to the extreme, disguised themselves as mortals, and walked into the temple.

   "This temple is so clean." Meng Jingzhou was surprised. He thought it would be full of dust and spiders were spinning webs in every corner.

  The situation inside the temple was far beyond his expectations. The temple was as clean as if someone had cleaned it.

  The only regret is that the Buddha statue in the middle is missing its upper body and cannot be visited.

  Li Haoran found dry firewood from behind the Buddha statue, which should be left by the person who stayed here last time.

  He piled the firewood together, found some hay, took out a flint and steel from the bag, and lit the firewood with the hay as a guide.

  Li Haoran warmed his hands to the fire, showing a very comfortable expression: "Huh—he's alive."

  Lu Yang took out a few steamed buns from his bag, skewered them with wooden skewers, and roasted them on the fire.

  When the skin of the steamed buns turned slightly yellow, Lu Yang opened one of the steamed buns, and the aroma mixed with the heat rushed over his face.

  Meng Jingzhou walked around the ruined temple and returned to the main hall: "In addition to the main hall, there are two other rooms, one for each person when we go to bed later."

"good."

  The three of them gathered around the fire, eating steamed buns and pickles, while lamenting that the road ahead was difficult.

Lu Yang was full of worries, and he didn't even feel the smell of the steamed buns in his hand: "I don't know if the trip to the Imperial City will be smooth, I heard that the monks in the Imperial City are everywhere, and it is difficult for us mortals to make a living there. It's more difficult."

  Meng Jingzhou waved his hand: "The number of monks in the Imperial City is not as exaggerated as you think. It is not bad to have one monk out of twenty people. It is so difficult to become a monk. The spiritual root alone will screen out 99% of people."

  There is one monk in twenty people. This ratio is already extremely appalling. No other large city in the Central Continent can achieve this ratio.

"Although we don't have spiritual roots, we are knowledgeable, we can read various articles at our fingertips, and we have different views on current affairs than ordinary people. Tomorrow, we will leave Shoutian County and go to Beijing to take the exam. impossible things."

   Not all the high-ranking officials of the Great Xia Dynasty were monks, but some of them were ordinary people.

Meng Jingzhou pointed at Li Haoran with a steamed bun and said, "Brother Li, for example, recited "Thousand Characters" at the age of five, wrote poems at the age of seven, wrote lyrics at the age of eight, and wrote articles at the age of ten. Full of praise, you are the best student I have ever taught."

Li Haoran smiled reservedly: "Brother Long praised me absurdly, but Mr. Long wanted to motivate me, so he made such an evaluation. On the contrary, Brother Long, instead of inheriting the family business, wanted to go to the Imperial City to fight for a future. Self-confidence, and the confidence that comes from this self-confidence are incomparable to me and Brother Lu."

The three of them flattered each other in various ways, and then they turned to the sage's book, read it with gusto, and felt that the sage's writing was really good, and it deserves to be a famous article that can be passed down through the ages. up.

  Meng Jingzhou yawned, ruthlessly hitting Lu Yang's dream: "Okay, stop dreaming, go to sleep, and get up early tomorrow."

  The three of them walked into their respective rooms according to what they said while eating steamed buns.

  Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou went to sleep in the rooms on both sides respectively, while Li Haoran stayed in the main hall and slept in front of half of the big Buddha statue.

  In the darkness, three beautiful figures stared at the three of Lu Yang, with faint green light in their eyes.

   "There are three more people here, and they are full of yang, I really want to know what they are like..." Tsing Yi Qianying chuckled.

"Yes, yes, it's been a long time since I've seen a scholar with such exuberant yang energy. Although it is said that a scholar can develop a righteous spirit after reading sage books for a long time, it's rare to see such a person as these three." Hong Yi Qianying licked her lips, full of temptation.

  Qianying in Baiyi is relatively young, so she hurriedly said: "You two sisters, you must be careful not to absorb their yang energy, and look at the problem from a sustainable perspective."

   "They are comfortable once, and they will come for a second time. We will absorb more Yang Qi than once."

"I know, I know, Xiao Qi is not very old, but she is the most verbose. We both know how to measure, and we won't do it. If we do it, it will attract righteous investigation, and we are the ones who are unlucky. We still understand this truth. "

   "We split up, the two of us went to the two rooms next to each other, Xiaoqi, you stay here to serve this Li."
