I descend into the world of heaven

Chen Chu hummed and found a clean place to sit down cross-legged.

Ning Caichen also picked up a book and started reading with the light of the setting sun coming in from the window. Until night fell, footsteps came from outside, the temple door creaked, and he saw a man wearing a long gown with a face like a crown jade, red lips and white teeth. The young man walked in.

The young man exuded an air of etherealness. When he saw two people sitting in the temple, he was stunned for a moment, and finally his eyes fell on Chen Chu who was meditating thoughtfully.

Ning Caichen stood up quickly and said: "Brother, I'm Ning Caichen. The inns in Jinhua City are expensive. I wanted to find a place to stay. Seeing that there is a temple here, I wanted to come and stay for a few days...Brother, please..."

Before he could finish speaking, the young man chuckled and said: "I am not the owner of this temple. Like my brother, I am just a temporary settler here. The place is so big, so please feel free to do whatever you want. I live in the wing next to it." .”

Chen Chu opened his eyes and smiled at the young man.

The young man also showed a kind smile: "My surname is Yan, my name is Sheng, and my courtesy name is Chixia. I don't know what to call me?"

Chen Chu stood up and said, "I'm a polite poor Taoist. My name is Chen San. I don't have a Taoist name yet. Like this fateful master, I will temporarily stay in the temple for a few days..."

Ning Caichen just told Yan Chixia to stay for a few days, but because of his polite words, the money was gone, so of course he would stay for a long time.

Yan Chixia clasped her fists: "There are still many vacant rooms in the temple, you can use them as you like..."

Ning Caichen happily thanked Chen Chu in a hurry, hugged the box and said hello to Chen Chu before moving to the adjacent wing. Chen Chu also chose a nearby wing.

In this way, the three people's wing is where Yan Chixia is next to Ning Caichen, and Ning Caichen is next to Chen Chu.

In the private room, Yan Chixia put her parcel on the table and sat cross-legged on the bed. She thought of Chen Chu's appearance while meditating. She couldn't help but thought to herself: It seems that she has met a fellow-traveler.

He took out a box from the package, opened it, took out a small dagger and wiped it carefully. The texture on the dagger exuded a faint white light, showing that it was extraordinary. Wiping it was what Yan Chixia did every day. Things that everyone will do. It was late at night, so he put the box next to his pillow and lay down to sleep...

As the night got deeper and deeper, the sound of a woman's voice came from the north courtyard of the temple.

Yan Chixia opened her eyelids slightly, reached out and touched the box next to her, smiled, then closed her eyelids again and continued to sleep...

Ning Caichen was reading at this time. The door of the wing was suddenly blown open by the wind, and a woman of seventeen or eighteen years old walked in. She had delicate features and a graceful figure. She leaned on the door frame with a shy face.

Ning Caichen was a little confused. When the woman spoke just now, he thought she was from someone who lived in the North Courtyard, so he ignored her. At this time, she ran to his wing and asked immediately: "What do you want to do?"

The woman covered her face and said: "Young Master... The moonlit night is long, and I can't sleep. I want to have sexual intercourse with you..."

ah?

Ning Caichen couldn't believe his ears, there was such a despicable woman in this world! When he came back to his senses, his anger increased. He was afraid of disturbing the two people next door. He suppressed his voice and yelled: "You are not afraid of others talking. I am afraid that others will know. Once this matter is exposed, it will ruin my reputation. Let's go, go!"

The woman smiled and said: "I won't let others know..."

Ning Caichen felt that his fists were hardened and he said, "If you keep pestering me, I will ask the scholars and Taoist priests next door to get up and see what shame you have as a woman!"

The woman was startled and walked out immediately. Suddenly she thought of something. She turned back and put a piece of gold on Ning Caichen's table. Unexpectedly, Ning Caichen picked it up and threw it out the door: "Don't use your dirty gold to taint it." off my desk, let’s go!”

"What a ruthless scholar."

"Walk!"

The woman hid her face and left, as if she already knew the shame. Ning Caichen breathed a sigh of relief. He had grown up reading books about saints and sages, and the woman was very beautiful. He might have done something to ruin the family tradition.

There were faint voices coming from the north courtyard, the voices of the woman and an old woman.

Old woman: "The scholar is dead?"

The woman said: "He is neither lustful nor greedy for money. Xiaoqian failed."

Old woman: "Oh, is there such a man in the world? Let me go over and take out his heart to see if it is clean."

The woman said: "Grandma, change it to another one..."

Old woman: "Stop talking!"

Ning Caichen felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard this loud conspiracy. He quickly blew out the light, hid in the bed, and wrapped himself in a thin quilt.

There were footsteps outside, and a dark ghost appeared outside the window. It pushed open the window with its claws and grabbed Ning Caichen, who was curled up in a ball! At this time, there was a cough from the side, and the ghost retracted its claws, its eyes filled with fear, because a white light flew over from the next room...

The ghost spewed green smoke from its mouth, and the white light passed through the smoke with a puff. The smoke dissipated, leaving a pool of green blood and a black arm on the ground. The white light circled twice and returned to the next door.

Chen Chu also sensed the arrival of ghosts. In the story of Nie Xiaoqian in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, his grandmother was actually a yaksha ghost. She was not as good as Yan Chixia. She was injured and was not convinced. Later, she went to chase Ning Caichen, but unexpectedly... It was taken away in a bag and turned into blood.

The arc in his hand slowly dissipated, and Nie Xiaoqian's story was a little twisty, but the result was the same, except that Yan Chixia changed from passive to active killing of enemies.

The women in the north courtyard didn't expect that the Yasha ghost had one of her arms chopped off as soon as he passed by. The Yasha ghost usually said that he would treat ghosts like them like daughters, but now he was injured and ran away without a trace.

The woman's name was Nie Xiaoqian, and she was the smartest of the female ghosts controlled by the yaksha ghost. She was happy that the yaksha ghost was injured. Maybe she could ask the scholar for help, take away the ashes, and completely escape the yaksha ghost's control. In order to avoid long nights and endless dreams, she planned to ask the scholar for help now...

Just after taking a few steps, she seemed to be greatly frightened. She flashed and disappeared outside the north courtyard wall.

Yan Chixia in the side room had already sat up. He carefully wiped the green blood stains on the dagger with a cloth and frowned: "Why is there still more? Is there anyone bolder than the Yaksha ghost?"

White mist enveloped the temple, and a ghost wearing a black robe and an official hat, with eyes like copper bells, a face like red dates, and holding a long sword came out.

The visitor was the military judge from the City God's Temple. He sniffed the air and found that the scent of the scholar during the day was in the middle room. With a sneer on his face, he stepped out with black boots and pushed the door panel of Ning Caichen's room. He kicked away and said in a deep voice: "Scholar Ning Caichen, you are dishonest in offering incense during the day and are disrespectful to the City God. You deserve to be killed! Now we are on our way..."

White light flashed out from next door.

The military judge was startled, drew out his long sword and blocked it with a clang. A gap appeared on the blade, and he was furious: "Who dares to go against the City God and yet he doesn't come out and kowtow to admit his mistake!"
