C68 Western Mountain Taoist Monastery

He Linqing and Wang Yanran rested for half an hour before they finally regained their senses. Lying on the flat rock, Wang Yanran felt a burst of fear. She had almost walked all the way back from the Palace of Yama. She looked up at the sky in a daze, and her body couldn't help but tremble.

He Lin Qing laughed to herself. This doesn't seem to fit with this girl's shrewd personality.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid? " He Lin Qing teased her.

"Who's afraid? I do have leg pain, alright! " Wang Yanran stubbornly replied.

"Just be stubborn." After all, he had just experienced life and death situations, so it was no longer a good idea to laugh at him. Then he changed the subject, "Oh right, you are just a little kid. How did you come all the way to this forest by yourself? You really can do it! "

Wang Yanran was unconvinced and said, "Hey, who's the little brat? I'm twenty years old. It's a student from Su Cheng University who took advantage of the school holiday to come to Tai Hu to try out this lakeside food. I don't know how he managed to do it, but he came here. "

Hearing that, He Lin Qing was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. You eat fresh lake food and go up the mountain? I've never seen a fool like you. "

"Who are you calling a fool?" Wang Yanran raised her leg to kick Lin Qing, completely forgetting about her calf injury. "Ah!" Pain... "It hurts …"

He Lin Qing could only helplessly reply, "My young mistress, please calm down."

Wang Yanran also felt a little embarrassed. After all, he had just risked his life to save her, so she should be more polite to him. She hesitantly asked, "What are you doing here?"

Thinking of her journey, He Linqing said helplessly, "I'm also a student of the University of Su City. I'm going to the village of Lu family on the mountain. It's good that it took me half a day. It's getting dark."

"You are also from Su City University. Your name is He Lin Qing. Don't tell me you are He Lin Qing from the School of Economics?" Wang Yanran acted as if she had discovered a new continent.

"Yes, that's me! "Hehe, I never thought that I, Young Master He, would be so famous." He Lin Qing was also quite proud of himself.

"Young Master He? "He who collects trash for a living, dares to call himself Young Master He." Wang Yanran's eyes widened.

Damn! He was truly famous. After arriving in the forest, there were people who knew that they were garbage collectors.

"Tell me, what do we do now? The moment I saved you, you started laughing at me. "

"Sorry!" It's all because of me. " Wang Yanran was extremely sorry. Looking at the sky which was about to darken, she asked worriedly, "Then what should we do next?"

"I heard that there are many wild beasts in the mountain!" He Linqing intentionally tried to scare him.

Wang Yanran quickly moved closer to He Lin Qing and tightly hugged her arm. She nervously said, "Don't scare me, I'm scared."

He Lin Qing felt that it was funny. After all, a girl was still a girl. No matter how valiant her outer appearance was, she still had a weak heart. However, as he came back to reality, the sky quickly darkened and the fog in the mountain also became denser. What should he do next? Am I going to spend the night here? If there really was a wild animal, it would be easy for him to deal with by himself. But now, with an injured girl, there would be no danger.

Just as he was at a loss, he suddenly heard a "sou" sound coming from the nearby forest. "Swish …" The sound.

"Fuck, get whatever you want!" He Lin Qing cried out in alarm as she quickly took out a dagger from her bag. Instinctively, she protected Wang Yanran behind her as she stared vigilantly in the direction of the sound.

Wang Yanran hid behind He Linqing. Her heart was in her throat and her body was trembling.

He Lin Qing planned in her heart that once the beast appeared, he would try his best to hit it in one hit. He could not delay any further to prevent Wang Yanran from getting hurt.

The sound was getting closer and closer. Through the fog, he could vaguely see a black shadow. This beast was not small at all. Wang Yanran did not even dare to breathe heavily. At this moment, the air seemed to have frozen.

The hand that He Linqing used to hold the dagger added a bit more strength. He calmly stared at the moving shadow, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Closer and closer. Closer and closer.

He Lin Qing raised his dagger and prepared to spring up.

"Hey, wait a minute. It doesn't look like a beast. It looks like a human."

With a cry of alarm, He Lin Qing hastily retracted her body that was about to be shot out.

At this moment, the shadow coming up from the foot of the mountain raised his head. Through the fog, both He Linqing and Wang Yanran were able to discern that the black shadow that had just arrived was not a wild beast. It was clearly a young daoist in black robes who was no older than 15 or 16 years old.

This was too dangerous. It was fortunate that He Linqing was so well-built that he was already within reach. If he had taken another step, He Linqing would have been drenched in blood.

He felt a wave of fear. Wang Yanran almost collapsed to the ground.

"Little Daoist, are you trying to scare me to death?" At this moment, Wang Yanran regained her unfriendly attitude.

The little Daoist looked nervously at the dagger-wielding He Linqing, "I am the little Daoist on the mountain, I don't have any money on me."

Damn! He Lin Qing was treated like a robber.

Wang Yanran continued to complain to the little Daoist, "Why didn't you raise your head when you were walking down the road? I thought you were some kind of wild beast. "

At this moment, the little Daoist finally understood what was going on, "You are the wild beast, speaking so aggressively! She was simply a tigress. Who's going to look up the mountain? How do you raise your head and walk? " The little Daoist said unhappily.

Damn! He was not an easy target either.

"Yo, you little Daoist, you're still stubborn." Wang Yanran refused to be outdone.

The little Daoist said, "You're still talking about me?" Your boyfriend almost killed me. "

Wang Yanran was so angry that she was both anxious and embarrassed. "Don't spout nonsense, who's my boyfriend …"

"Not your boyfriend? What are you all doing in the wilderness? " The little Daoist mocked.

"You … Not learning well at such a young age is shameless. " Wang Yanran was so angry that she rolled her eyes.

"Why didn't I learn well? How am I shameless? Speak clearly …" The little Daoist rushed up to argue.

He Lin Qing was speechless. What a pair of treasures. Following that, he hurried forward to persuade the two people who were arguing.

"Alright, alright. We were too rash and almost hurt you. My apologies." He Lin Qing quickly acted as the peacemaker.

"Look, this big brother knows how to speak. He doesn't seem like some people …" The little Daoist enjoyed himself very much.

Wang Yanran rolled her eyes at He Lin Qing and mumbled, "You're the best."

"Little Daoist, you just said that you're a Daoist on the mountain?" He Linqing's eyes lit up as she asked, "There's a Taoist temple on this mountain?"

"There is a Daoist monastery. It has existed since the Song Dynasty. It has existed for more than a thousand years." The little Daoist spoke with pride, and then his eyes dimmed again. "What a pity. Now, the only ones left are me and the old master."

"Is it far from here?" He Lin Qing continued to ask.

The young Daoist pulled He Lin Qing to a slightly more spacious area and pointed at the small mountain in front of them. "Nuo, that is our temple." The Daoist Canon of the West Mountain.

Following the direction the little Daoist pointed at, He Lin Qing could vaguely see some buildings through the mist.

It really was a Taoist temple.
