"Well, maybe you're right, I'm just a monster..."

The white snake sighed in a sad voice, and finally glanced at the two gorgeous pink lotus flowers in the small pond for a while before she slowly turned around and looked at the sister Xu Xian who was begging her with a sad and melancholy face:

"In the evening, after the official has recovered almost, I will go see him for the last time... If he is still afraid of me, please rest assured Sister Xu. Then I will naturally leave by myself."

After saying this last, Bai Suzhen sighed again in her heart, then lowered her eyelids, gave a slight blessing to Xu Jiaorong, who was a little surprised, and then turned around and left the small pavilion in the garden.

Yes, she needs to prepare and then finally go and visit her official Xu Xian again.

And if the other party is still afraid of her...

Maybe she would continue to go back to the mountains to practice with Xiaoqing? After all, what Xu Xian’s sister said just now was right. The forced melon is not sweet. If Xu Xian really doesn’t want to be with her snake demon, then she has no other way than to leave quietly.

“…”

Frowning and looking at the white back of the other party walking into the house in the afterglow of the sunset, Xu Jiaorong was really soft-hearted at that moment... However, when she thought of her younger brother, she finally made up her mind and said nothing.

Because the other party is a monster, and her younger brother Xu Xian is a human!

The human and demons have different paths, and the ethics of heaven are common. No matter what, humans and demons must not be together. This matter cannot be forced, otherwise a big incident will definitely happen! And the recent experiences of her younger brother Xu Xian are the best proof!

Let’s not talk about the group of gods, Buddhas, demons, ghosts and robbers at the home of Li Gongfu, Li Gongfu in Qiantang County, nor do we care about the drama that was preparing to take place in the "Safety Hall" in Suzhou that has not yet been opened. In the old forest in the mountains north of Jinhua, Li Gongfu and his more than a dozen cavalry riding horses and a prison car were walking on the mountain road at night with difficulty on torches.

They missed the previous mountain village where they could stay because the sun was high. They thought they could go to Guobei County, north of Jinhua to play the leading role, but they did not expect that they underestimated the bumps of the mountain stream road and underestimated the drag caused to them by the prison car.

So, now they really feel a little unrest, so they can only bite the bullet and put on torches, as if they want to continue rushing to arrive in Guobei County earlier?

"No, really not!"

"Tao Li! Let's take a break. Look, it's so late. We have missed Guantou. When will it be the end if we continue?!"

At this time, a constable holding the reins of the horse in one hand and holding the torch high in the other, struggling to instigate the slow horse under his crotch, which was gasping for breath, rushed to Li Gongfu with difficulty, and said loudly to the headmaster Li who was also riding on an old horse.

"Yes, boss, count it, we have been traveling for a day. Even if the people are not trapped, the horse can't stand it anymore!"

"That's right, my head, there's plenty of time anyway. Let's rest for one night, and go to Jinhua tomorrow to hand over the documents. With the horses under our crotch, there is no burden from the prison car. Isn't the return journey only about two days? Don't worry, we can definitely rush back before the New Year!"

"Yes, Li Head, please rest for a while?"

"I also agree to take a break for a night. The mountain road is rugged and there is not even moonlight. If you accidentally fall into the mountain sink, it will cause death!"

"It's time to take a break."

"cough……"

Soon, after hearing someone's head, the other constables began to make a fuss, not planning to continue walking such a bumpy and dangerous mountain road at night when the horse was trapped and hungry.

“…”

"But if we don't have a village or a shop in front of us, where can we stay?!"

Li Gongfu wanted to find a place to rest for the night earlier than anyone else, but he looked at the surrounding dark forest environment and the occasional sound of wolves coming from afar. For some reason, he always felt a sense of frizz, just wanted to leave here early and rush to Jinhua County early?

Anyway, he doesn't want to camp in such a forest environment at night. If he does that, it will definitely be more dangerous than rushing around overnight!

"Head! I came here more than ten years ago, I'm familiar with it!"

"At the intersection of the road ahead, there should be a large temple called Lanruo Temple, but it has been abandoned a long time ago. Maybe we should be able to go there for a night?"

Yes, this old detective did visit this place more than ten years ago, and even saw the big temple called Lanruo Temple from afar! At that time, it seemed that the big temple had not been completely abandoned, the temple pagoda was magnificent, and pilgrims kept coming and going...

Of course, that was the past, and now, this old constable was not very clear about what the situation was. Anyway, he heard that after the canal was sorted out by the court, the Lanruo Temple, which was located on the main road of the north and south, gradually became abandoned.

"Lanruo Temple?"

"Where is the south of Lanruo Temple? Is there anyone or farm?"

Li Gongfu instinctively did not expect a group of monks to live in or abandoned temples. If there was a village ahead, he would rather stay in other people's villages for a night, even in cowsheds and grass houses.

"To the south is Guo Bei. After Guo Bei is half a day away, that is Jinhua!"

"After crossing the intersection of Lanruo Temple, we can't find any accommodation except Guobei County!"

In fact, Guobei is not a county, but because of the developed land transportation back then, there were more and more vendors in Guobei, and then it gradually grew and grew, which was why it was called a county town?

However, Guo Bei is still under Jinhua's jurisdiction, and Guo Bei County is just a misnomer from outsiders!

“…”

"Lanruo Temple...what is there any specialty for that dilapidated temple?"

Li Gongfu felt that maybe this time, they could only go to the monk temple for one night? However, there is an unwritten rule in the world, that is: Don’t go in the forest, don’t live in the temple?

On this evening, I ran to a dilapidated temple that was not familiar with. The key was an abandoned temple. It would be better to find a farmer to make do with it!

"What's the point? Lanruo Temple is also called Jinhua Temple!"

"But... I heard that after the monk inside abandoned it, he started to haunt. I don't know if it's true or false?"

It was the old detective before, and he said it out indifferently.

"No, haunted?!"

"You're crazy, haunted, you're still asking your boss to go there to rest?!"

"That's right, I think we'd better continue on the road, endure it, and go to Guobei County overnight to rest for a long time?"

"It's just... if Guo Bei comes, I'm afraid it will be three o'clock in the middle of the night..."

"More than that! It's night now, and our speed is less than half that of the day. I'm afraid we can reach Guobei at the time of Yin! If the city gates are not open, we will have to be outside the city until Chenshi?"

“…”

"Head! My horse is about to be beaten. Look, it's all foaming at the mouth..."

Soon, a group of constables started to make trouble again.

Some of them hesitate, some of them are not interested, some of them are unwilling to go to Lanruo Temple, and some of them insist on traveling overnight. Anyway, their opinions cannot be unified for the time being.

"Damn it, that's what I decided: Let's go to Lanruo Temple to rest for half a night, eat something, and then set off for Jinhua at Chenshi!!"

Finally, looking at the brown pony under his command that was already foaming at the mouth, and looking at the two horses pulling the prison cart, who were also sick and bored, Li Gongfu finally made a decision.

It is better to rest in a dilapidated temple with walls and tiles for a night than to set up camp in a wilderness!

"But, head, there's haunted..."

When he heard that his leader, Li Gongfu, Li, insisted on going to Lanruo Temple, he was a little unhappy.

"What are you afraid of!"

"We are all officials, with strong yang energy on our bodies. And our people in the government are protected by God. In this Song Dynasty, what monsters and ghosts dare to approach us?"

"Besides, are the Park Knife in your waist all water and fire sticks? There are really demons and ghosts approaching. Just slash them with one knife. Is it not dead?!"

No one knows whether Li Gongfu is too brave or not. Anyway, as the leader and the chief constable, he can never show his timidity in front of others.

"Lanruo Temple?!"

"No! I don't want to go to Lanruo Temple. You guys kill me now. I don't want to go to Lanruo Temple!!"

At this time, the blood-stained prisoner who had been dozing in the prison car, who had been dozing in the prison car, suddenly began to struggle and roar hysterically after hearing the name of Lan Ruo Temple.

"Shut up! If you dare to talk nonsense, we will use horse manure to block your robber's mouth!!"

Seeing that the other party dared to cause trouble at this time, Li Gongfu was angry and slapped forward, slapped his back hard on the top of the other party's prison car, sitting in a fierce look and drinking.

If it weren't for the need to escort this bastard, their dozen brothers wouldn't have to go far at this time. And this guy would have dared to take the lead and make trouble, and he would have been looking for death?!

"No! I don't want to go to Lanruo Temple. You guys kill me now. I don't want to go to Lanruo Temple!!"

"Please change your way, or you can kill me, I don't want to go to such a ghost place, you can kill me!!"

However, no matter how bad Li Gongfu said, the prisoners in the prison car continued to make noise hysterically. It seemed that the other party knew the name of Lanruo Temple?

But thinking about it, since the other party was the prisoner named by Jinhua, he must have known the situation in the nearby fields.

"Boss, what should we do?"

Seeing the criminals making noise, the indifferent constables were also a little confused.

"What else can I do? I will block his dog's mouth and then go to Lanruo Temple. I don't believe that evil! There are so many of us, and we are in the territory of our Song Dynasty. Are there really robbers who don't want to kill monsters or monsters or dare to attack the government?!"

Li Gongfu didn't believe in those divine things. He thought that maybe there were strong people hiding there? In that case, they would have to be divided into three groups and take turns to watch.

They are more than a dozen strong officials, all of whom have martial arts skills, and ordinary robbers are really not taken seriously by him.

"But……"

"Hey, I'm afraid they are not human..."

A constable's voice sounded, making everyone's heart tremble.

"Shut up, don't say anything that shakes the morale of the army!"

"Let's go, hurry up, let the horse move, target: Lanruo Temple!!"

"Abide by the order!"

"Start! Look at the prisoner and block his stinky mouth!!"

"Yes! Li Head!!"

"Cough... wuwuwuwuwuwuwu!!!"

Soon, a group of Qiantang County constables carrying a Pu knife on their waists, holding a torch in their hands, and wearing the Song Dynasty constables suits quickly drove the horses and surrounded a prison cart, making sounds of horse hooves and the "gala swaying" sounds when the prison cart moved, and slowly heading towards the huge dark and dilapidated temple in a mountain stream in the distance.

Now the sky is just getting dark. They should be able to arrive at Lanruo Temple before the end of the Xu hour, and then rest for five to six hours with peace of mind?

"That's great, that very edible little girl from Fanbang is finally leaving..."

"Waiter, did she give the money?"

"I gave it, a total of twelve taels of broken silver, with a high quality, and there are no small amounts!"

“…”

"That's good, hurry up, go and close the door, we can finally take a break."

"Yes! The shopkeeper!"
