Yuan Shao was walking on the street with a gloomy expression on his face, as if covered by dark clouds, his originally sentimental peach blossom eyes were now completely cold.

"Master!" Chi Jinnian trotted all the way to chase after him, and finally grabbed Yuan Shao's corner of his clothes, supported his waist and gasped for breath: "Why didn't you wait for me alone before leaving!"

Yuan Shao didn't answer, and turned his face aside.

As soon as Yuan Shao stepped out of the shop on the front foot, the elder sister tailor chased him out on the back foot.Chi Jinnian asked, and only then did he know why Yuan Shao asked about the bracelet.

In the world of cultivation, all cultivators have to worship the Entrepreneur School for cultivation since they were young. After their cultivation reaches a certain level, they can choose a suitable Taoist partner for dual cultivation, so as to improve the cultivation of both parties at the same time.If one does double cultivation with others before the foundation has been established, at least one will lose one's cultivation base, at worst, one's bloodline will be reversed and one will die, or one may go mad and lose one's sanity ever since.

Therefore, before a certain age and realm, cultivators in the upper realm of cultivation must not become lustful.Otherwise, not only will you hurt yourself, but also the Taoist companions who are dual cultivation together.

When Yuan Shao asked about the bracelet, he must have doubted his identity as an apprentice.Or maybe he felt that his little apprentice had done something bad behind her back.

Chi Jinnian explained: "Master just asked me about the bracelet. After I got rid of the monster, the monster ran away. I found it when I was cleaning the battlefield. At that time, I was young and ignorant, so I only wore it because it was novel. Later, when I learned its meaning, I immediately took it out."

After hearing this, the expression on Yuan Shao's face softened obviously.But he still refused to look directly at Chi Jinnian.

Chi Jinnian held Yuan Shao's wrist, and said with a smile, "Could it be that Master suspects me and has a puppy love behind your back?"

"You..." This sentence made Yuan Shao's originally pale complexion flush with blush, and he raised his eyes to look at Chi Jinnian. Although his tone was a little hard, his voice was still clear and clear, without any anger Meaning: "How did you talk to the teacher!"

"Yes, yes, master, don't be angry, it's the disciple's fault." Seeing that Yuan Shao's face softened slightly, Chi Jinnian knew that this calamity was over.

She couldn't help thinking inwardly, if she stays by Yuan Shao's side any longer, sooner or later her secrets will be exposed, maybe by some chance, her life will be lost.He became more determined to send Yuan Shao away.

But before leaving, she had to hug her thigh one last time.

Chi Jinnian shook Yuan Shao's arm: "Master, we have to wait a while to sew the cloak, can you accompany me to a place first?"

-

Chi Jinnian brought Yuan Shao to the gate of a Taoist temple.

This Taoist temple is also strange to say, the layout is not like ordinary Taoist temples, and it is also different from Buddhist temples.Pear blossoms are flying all over the courtyard, and the fragrance is tangy.

Yihuitang Xiaoer told her that there is a goddess enshrined here, which is very efficacious, so the incense has always been very strong.

"Master, it is said that this place is very spiritual. The place we are going to tomorrow is a bit dangerous. I want to come and pray for safety." Chi Jinnian introduced.

Yuan Shao shook his head: "A cultivator, there is no reason to pay homage lightly."

Chi Jinnian said: "It doesn't matter, as long as the master is watching me, anyway, my cultivation base is still shallow, so I should be able to do it."

With that said, Chi Jinnian pulled him into the Taoist temple.After receiving the incense in the side hall, Chi Jinnian came alone to the futon where the group worshipped, and knelt down on his knees.

Yuan Shao watched the little apprentice raise the incense stick over his head, his eyes closed tightly.Piously making the wish he asked for, he was a little curious for a moment, what the other party's wish was.

The door of the main hall is surrounded by railings, and it is impossible to enter. All the worshipers bow down in the courtyard.As soon as you enter the gate, there is a huge incense burner, and clusters of blue fireworks surge upwards, filling the yard with the smell of sandalwood.

In front of the incense burner, futons were placed on the ground.Those who come to offer incense first hold the incense and make a wish on the futon, then go to the censer to light the sandalwood in their hands, insert it into the cauldron, and then return to the futon to worship.

Due to the large number of pilgrims, this toss also took a lot of time.There are pilgrims, men, women and children, and each of them brings exquisite tributes, including melon and fruit snacks, as well as gold and silver utensils.

At this time, an old man had just finished his visit and walked to the corridor next to him to rest.Yuan Shao stepped forward and asked, "Old man, may I ask which god is enshrined here?"

The old woman was wiping her forehead with a handkerchief, seeing that it was a handsome young man who asked her, she explained with a smile: "Young man, you just came here, you don't even know about Li Ji!"

"Li Ji?"

"That's right, that's a saint! It is said that our lord was accidentally seriously injured when he was young, and was saved by Li Ji. Later, the lord Li Ji became an immortal, so the lord cultivated Taoism for her here. Temple, offering daily offerings. She is a miracle, our neighbor’s elder son was critically ill before, and no matter how many doctors he invited, the family members came here to burn a stick of incense and ask for a talisman. It will be fine after a month. Now there are two grandchildren in the family."

After being introduced by the old woman, Yuan Shao became even more curious about this goddess, curious about what such a miraculous "Saint" looks like, and how she can gain such a large number of devout believers.So his eyes turned to the statue of the goddess in the temple.

The statue in the temple is a woman holding flowers, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, giving people an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

Just watching, Chi Jinnian came over after the visit: "Master, there are a lot of people here, and the incense is a bit choking, let's go out first."

After saying goodbye to the old woman, Yuan Shao let Chi Jinnian pull him out of the Taoist temple.

Among the crowd, they thought that the "boy" in white was letting the little girl in front hold his hand and walked against the flow of people.

The wind blew the pear blossoms down, and a single snow-white flower fell on her red-brown hair.When no one was paying attention, Yuan Shao raised his hand and took off the pear blossom, and quietly put it back into his cuff.

As soon as he came out, Chi Jinnian spread out his palm, holding a small red cloth bag on it.

"The amulet I just asked for the master."

It was midsummer, and now it was approaching noon, and the sun shone unabashedly on the ground. There were already many people in the Taoist temple just now, and the burning incense burner added to the heat.Yuan Shao looked at Chi Jinnian's smooth forehead with two bead-sized beads of sweat, flashing under the sunlight: "For me?"

"Hmm!" Chi Jinnian handed his palm forward again. Seeing Yuan Shao froze in place, he simply spread out the other's palm and put the red cloth bag in: "It is said that praying for peace here is very effective, Master." It's time to collect it!"

For a moment, Yuan Shao felt that the little red in his palm weighed a thousand catties, so heavy that she couldn't hold it up.

At the same time, she also guessed the wish that Chi Jinnian made when he put his palms together just now.

After a long time, he replied: "Then, thank you very much."

-

Tonight, Chi Jinnian is still staying at Yuan Shao's place.

In the evening, Yihuitang delivered the things Chi Jinnian bought, two cloaks, some items for outdoor life, and a lot of wound medicine.All of them were stuffed into two storage bags by Chi Jinnian.

This storage pouch is only the size of a purse, so it is very convenient to hang on your waist.

After packing everything, Chi Jinnian came to Yuan Shao's bedside with her little bedroll in her arms.

As soon as he was about to lie down, Yuan Shao took out the red string from his cuff and handed it to Chi Jinnian: "Didn't you say you were afraid? I saw that you slept soundly wearing this red string last night. Today Tie it up, too." As he spoke, he rolled up his cuffs cooperatively and stretched out his arms.

This movement reminded her of how she looked when she woke up this morning.At that time, she was resting on this arm.Although Yuan Shao is very thin, but this arm is very comfortable to rest on, otherwise he wouldn't wake up until dawn.

Thinking of this, Chi Jinnian felt a little guilty for a while.I don't know what kind of mood Yuan Shao felt when he was hugged by him all night.

Chi Jinnian took the red rope and tied it with his head bowed.She pretended to glance at Yuan Shao inadvertently, and accidentally found that the other party was also staring at her, so she quickly lowered her head again.

When people get nervous, their hands don't follow orders.The original ordinary knot was stunned, but it was turned back and forth several times without finding the right position.

Just when Chi Jinnian was panicking, Yuan Shao stretched out his index finger to help her hold the other end of the knot.

This time, she was so close that she could smell the faint fragrance of the other person.Like mint leaves, fresh and hearty, not gaudy.

"Okay." Chi Jinnian replied with a smile, then quickly hugged his little blanket and returned to his floor.

Amitabha, I hope I can be more honest tonight and stop running around.In order to prevent the rope from being long enough, Chi Jinnian deliberately placed his bedding at the closest position to Yuan Shao's bed.

Today, Yuan Shao's sleep will definitely not be disturbed like last night.Relieved, Chi Jinnian lay down. ╈Jun/Sheep㈧㈦I㈥㈧IIII㈤㈤

After an unknown period of time, Yuan Shao heard the shallow breathing in the room gradually become even.He tried to call softly, but he didn't get a response. It seemed that the little girl on the ground had already fallen asleep.

This time, Yuan Shao didn't lie down next to her, but directly carried her up, and gently placed him on the bed. After placing him properly, he reached out and stroked the broken hair on Chi Jinnian's forehead behind his ears.

The sudden itching made Chi Jinnian in his dream subconsciously reach out and wipe his forehead, then turned over and put his wrist in front of him.

Chi Jinnian looked at the bright white wrist tied with a red string. The previous jade bracelet had been replaced by a red string.

The wrist is very thin, Yuan Shao stretched out his hand to measure it, and stretched out his thumb and index finger just enough to wrap around her wrist.

Seeing the red rope draped limply around her wrist, Yuan Shao suddenly felt that his little apprentice was really suitable for wearing a bracelet.

But the previous one was not good, not transparent enough, too cloudy.

She has a fair complexion, and she would look good in light-colored, translucent things.

The soft moonlight shone on Chi Jinnian's peaceful face, her long eyelashes cast a circle of shadows under her eyes, the tip of her small nose trembled slightly with her breathing, and her red lips were tightly closed under the tip of her nose.

Like a sleeping white rabbit, so relaxed that even the pair of rabbit ears drooped, looking obedient.

For some reason, Yuan Shao felt that Chi Jinnian was always a little nervous and alienated when facing him.Although she had a smile on her face and curved eyebrows, she always deliberately kept a distance from herself that was not too close or too far.

Step back and she will move forward.Just when she wanted to take a step forward, she quickly retreated back with an air of respecting her teacher.

After thinking about it, Yuan Shao attributed the reason to his indifference towards this little apprentice before he lost his memory.

She suddenly thought of something, and took out a small red cloth bag from her cuff - it was the amulet that Chi Jin had begged for during the day.

Yuan Shao gently put it into the brocade bag on Chi Jinnian's waist.

If peace is what your heart desires.

Then... the teacher is willing to protect your safety.

But don't be afraid of me, can you?
