After being forced to marry a natural enemy

Shen Guizhou left.

The whole family thought that the monasticism that Shen Guizhou talked about was just a temporary whimsy, but Shen Guizhou had always been a person who kept his word.So he left without taking a single cloud, leaving only Shen's mother's belated roar.

He didn't pack his clothes, if the Taoist sect would keep him, he would change into a Taoist robe; if the Taoist sect refused to keep him, he would go back home.After doing the sums, he only brought a ball of string and a little dried fish. The ball of string is soft pink-purple, which his mother made for him when he was young. Whenever he went out, he would always take that ball with him.

Before going out, he had carefully considered that, as Wu Ming said, it was unlikely that Taoism would take monsters as disciples.So he wanted to go to the largest Taoist temple. Firstly, the Daoist temple was very inclusive, and secondly, even if he was rejected, he would not be too disgraceful.He chose the destination of Changyun Temple, which is the most popular place in the world.

It took Shen Guizhou a day to find the Changyun Temple in the human world, and half of the day he ate small dried fish.

Changyun Temple's prayers are very effective, and many pilgrims come here admiringly, but what scares them the most is the endless nine thousand steps of Changyun Mountain.The sloping and steep stairs have a hundred steps and ten turns, as if they will wind to the end of the sky before giving up.

A young couple who were out of breath walked in front with their arms. Shen Guizhou looked at them and thought of Shen Guiyi and Qin Yun, and then thought of Zheng Zijing who had been neglected recently.Impatiently, he tugged at the bundle on his chest, and flew past them at lightning speed.

The couple looked at each other, and the wife asked her husband, "Did a big black mouse jump past just now?"

Shen Guizhou had gone a long way, but his wife's words still inevitably reached his ears, and he rolled his eyes in his heart, is it really hard for a mouse?He tried his best to calm down his emotions and surpassed many people along the way—there were nobles sitting in sedan chairs, widows over half a century old, and young people who came here alone.

The mountain gate was just around the corner, and Shen Guizhou was a little apprehensive, wondering if he could enter the mountain gate in the form of a demon spirit.He took a deep breath and walked into the mountain gate. As expected, the enchantment of the mountain gate bounced him back.The person who set up the enchantment seemed to have unfathomable mana, and Shen Guizhou faced the enchantment like a grain of sand facing the sea.He restrained his evil spirit and continued to try, but was repeatedly hit by the mana bullets of the enchantment, and his clothes were stained with a lot of dust.

The sun gradually moved to the west, and the young couples, nobles, widows, and teenagers who had been left behind by him just now all entered the mountain gate, which seemed like a silent mockery to Shen Guizhou.He had no choice but to sit in front of the mountain gate to rest. Gradually, he felt a little lost. He didn't know how to face the marriage.

After an unknown amount of time, he heard someone calling him from behind, "Return to the boat."

Shen Guizhou couldn't quite recognize that face, so he asked doubtfully, "You are?"

The man looked Shen Guizhou up and down, but he burst out laughing.Shen Guizhou frowned unconsciously, feeling that this person was laughing at his downfall, this unlucky feeling - how familiar.He seemed to be thinking of something, he drew back and walked two steps forward to the man, stretched out his palm to cover the lower half of the man's face, and said in surprise, "It's you?"

Ye Xinglan was covered with a veil when we first met, and Shen Guizhou had never seen his full face, so he couldn't remember it for a while.

Ye Xinglan tilted his head to look at him, smiled and bent his crescent-like phoenix eyes, and said, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Guizhou put down his hands, and said decisively: "Let's become a monk."

Ye Xinglan seemed to have heard some fresh joke, and said, "Became a monk? What kind of family are you a demon?"

Shen Guizhou glanced at him, only to find that there was still a Taoist priest standing beside him, he hurriedly saluted decently, and greeted him: "The Taoist priest is merciful. Knowing that the chief is willing to take in disciples."

Daoist Qingxuan smiled, and every wrinkle revealed the boundless compassion of Taoism, and said: "You are not here because you want to be Taoist, but because you want to avoid the world. What's more, you have not broken your relationship with the world, and the poor Taoist dare not disobey the will of heaven."

Shen Guizhou said: "The mortal relationship has not been broken...but I don't have someone I like, so how can there be a mortal relationship?"

"People in the game can't see through it." Daoist Qingxuan took out a silver string from his sleeve, gave Ye Xinglan a meaningful look, and then handed it to Shen Guizhou: "This meeting is also fate, This marriage rope is regarded as a meeting gift for the poor."

"Marriage rope..." Shen Guizhou took the silver rope and asked in confusion: "Dare to ask, what is the purpose of this marriage rope?"

Qingxuan Dao said: "The predecessor of this marriage rope was Yuelao's red rope. Pindao made a little improvement, so lovers can feel the life and death of each other when they tie it."

Shen Guizhou was a little puzzled, but he thanked him anyway. He still wanted to fight for it, so he said again: "The nature and appearance of all things are impermanent. The Taoist priest sees that my karma is not complete today, but if the Taoist priest is willing to accept me into the Taoist sect, In the future, I will have no ties to the world. The Daoist Master is infinitely merciful, so why is he not willing to teach his disciples the method of nectar."

Shen Guizhou was overjoyed. Beforehand, he never thought that he could say such a "famous saying", and the tail of the cat behind him was so proud.Until—Ye Xinglan covered one side of his mouth and told him in a low voice, "Impermanence and nectar method are both the words of Buddhism, not Taoism."

Shen Guizhou glanced at Ye Xinglan as if shifting his eyes. He was embarrassed for a while, but fortunately, the Taoist leader didn't mind, and still smiled: "Young master is good at speaking, but it's just predestined by fate, and the poor dare not make up his own mind."

Shen Guizhou's ears turned red from the shame of that phrase "Young master speaks kindly", and since Qingxuan's words had come to this point, Guizhou no longer persisted.

Qingxuan bid farewell to the two, turned back to the Taoist temple, and said with deep meaning in his mouth: "All dharmas are empty, and cause and effect are not empty."

The two returned the salute, and looked at each other inexplicably. After Qingxuan Taoist leader walked away, Ye Xinglan walked down the mountain gate side by side with Shen Guizhou. He asked Shen Guizhou, "Gui Zhou, why are you suddenly Want to leave home?"

Shen Guizhou didn't hide it from him, and said: "My family has arranged a marriage for me, and I want to marry you Rat Clan."

"Huh? So you'd rather become a monk than get married?" Ye Xinglan was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that it's a coincidence, and then asked: "Your last name is Shen, right?"

Shen Guizhou said: "How do you know?"

Ye Xinglan pursed his lips, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Because I'm your uncle" stuck in his throat, and said absent-mindedly, "Is that why you don't want to get married? The lady of the patriarch's family is very good-looking."

Shen Guizhou glanced at him sideways, the warm golden thread of the setting sun sprinkled on Ye Xinglan's handsome side face, but that face was more dazzling than the sun.Shen Guizhou was stunned for a moment, and then said in a strange way: "Then... are you as good-looking as you?"

Ye Xinglan stopped in his tracks, and teased, "It's a bit short of me."

"Unlucky." Shen Guizhou rolled his eyes at him, quickened his pace, and said, "By the way, why did you put me in that cave-like inn last time?"

"Don't you like it? It's the only cave-style inn in the whole city. I found it after searching for a long time." As a lark, Ye Xinglan naturally likes caves.

The cultural differences between the cat and mouse clans became concrete once again, and Shen Guizhou lost even more confidence in that marriage. He looked back at the mountain gate of Changyun Temple with nostalgia, and hoped that Taoist Qingxuan would change his mind.

After a while, Shen Guizhou thought of something again, so he asked Ye Xinglan: "Wait, you are also a demon, why can you enter the Taoist temple and I can't?"

"Maybe it's because of the Taoist priest and me. The godmother is an old acquaintance."

Shen Guizhou half-believingly said: "Is that so, let me ask you again, what method did you use to save me last time?"

Ye Xinglan was silent for a moment, then suddenly covered his stomach and laughed, saying, "The method of nectar."

Shen Guizhou gave him a sideways glance and didn't answer, Ye Xinglan caught up with him, caught up with him, grabbed his shoulders, and said: "I heard that the peach blossom wine in this capital is a must, and the two of us came here with great difficulty. Why don't you go for a drink?"

Shen Guizhou pushed his hand away, and said, "Whoever is with you is the two of us, men and women can't kiss each other."

It was only then that Ye Xinglan remembered that in Shen Guizhou's eyes, he was still a banshee, so he made up his mind to use wine as an excuse, so he compromised: "Okay, I won't touch you, but I heard that wine in this world can make you feel better." People are in high spirits, forgetting all their troubles, and when we return to Yaozu, we won't have this chance."

Shen Guizhou slightly raised his head to look at Ye Xinglan, with round and bright lychee eyes, hesitantly said: "It really can make people forget their troubles? It's not a panacea, how could it be so effective."

He was a little moved, he hadn't watched the various forms of sentient beings just now, and he really needed something to make him forget his troubles.

Ye Xinglan said: "You'll know if it works or not if you try it. If you don't drink it, you won't drink it."

"it is good."
