Follow the mountain god to fight monsters

"Calm down, Qingshan." Pei Ran stood in front of Su Yan, "She was not born at that time, she didn't know anything."

The man named Qingshan put away his murderous intentions instantly and gave a distraught smile, stepped back a few steps, turned around to look at the huge ginkgo tree, and murmured: "Dead, unexpectedly dead." How sad.

Su Yan will never forget his eyes, resentment, helplessness, desolation, and finally disappeared in a gust of wind.

Su Yan was a little dazed, not knowing what happened just now.

Pei Ran turned around and looked at Su Yan who had an innocent face, sighed helplessly, and said, "I'm really sorry, I apologize to you for what happened just now."

Su Yan shook his head, looking at the place where the man disappeared, is he a tree demon?Su Yan looked at Pei Ran, and seemed to know something from Pei Ran's appearance.Just as he was about to ask, he saw Lan Lan walking over and said with a little temper: "What are you doing here? The food is getting cold."

"Come over right away." Pei Ran responded, then turned to Su Yan and said, "Let's eat first."

Su Yan could only put aside the doubts in his heart for the time being, and went to eat.

In Su Manor, Su Yan's food has always been made by Lan Lan and himself. Both Lan Lan and Su Yan's cooking skills are very good. Even his father often praised him in the past, and often came to the courtyard to eat with him.It's just that since his father passed away, there have never been more than three people at the dinner table.

Looking at the sumptuous food, Pei Ran let out a wow in surprise: "Lan Lan, you are so virtuous, and you will be lucky in the future." He took a mouthful of food and nodded in satisfaction.

These years, Pei Ran has been cooking by himself. Although the cooking is not particularly unpalatable, it is cooked well anyway. Even the guy in the yard often dislikes his cooking skills, but he smiled and said: "Can cook It's pretty good."

Lan Lan looked at Pei Ran and smiled lightly: "My cooking skills are not as good as my lady's. My lady's cooking skills are good."

Pei Ran was taken aback, looked at Su Yan and said, "Then I'll be lucky in the future."

Su Yan smiled embarrassedly.

With this blessing today, Pei Ran was overjoyed, took a few mouthfuls, then brought an empty bowl with vegetables, and put the bowl of rice under the ginkgo tree.

Lan Lan looked slightly surprised at Pei Ran's actions, and said in a panic, "Miss, what is Mr. Pei doing? Is there anything there?"

Su Yan glanced at the ginkgo tree, but the man named Qingshan did not appear, he nodded, lowered his eyebrows and continued to eat.

Pei Ran sat back on the table, didn't see Lan Lan's vision at all, picked up the rice bowl and ate on his own.

Lan Lan was a little afraid to get close to Su Yan. She squinted and saw the red mark on Su Yan's neck. She immediately put down the chopsticks in her hand and exclaimed, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you hurt?"

Su Yan immediately covered his neck and covered it up: "It's nothing, maybe I was injured by that starving ghost in the morning."

Pei Ran's expression changed slightly, he glanced at Su Yan, but didn't speak.

"Why are you injured so badly? I'll give you some medicine later." Lan Lan said worriedly.

"No, it's okay, it'll be fine in two days." Su Yan pulled up his collar and smiled lightly.

"Miss, don't you have a jade pendant to protect yourself? How could you still be injured? I really didn't expect that we have only been here for less than two days, and we have already encountered two monsters." Lan Lan said.

Lifting the jade pendant, Pei Ran looked at the pendant around Su Yan's neck and frowned.

Su Yan turned his head and glanced at the ginkgo tree, then lowered his head and pondered: The fact that the jade pendant didn't hurt the man meant that he wasn't a monster, but if it wasn't a monster, what was it?Su Yan was puzzled.

Suddenly, a wind chime on the beam rang 'jingling', the three of them looked up at the same time, Pei Ran frowned, Su Yan was a little surprised that the wind chime was automatic without wind.

Pei Ran stood up, stretched her waist and said, "Really, can you let people have a good meal?" After speaking, he was about to leave.

"Daozhang Pei, where are you going?" Su Yan asked, he still had a lot of things to ask Pei Ran.

Pei Ran smiled lightly, glanced at the ginkgo tree in the courtyard, and said with a wry smile: "Go clean up the garbage for someone, we'll talk about it when we come back."

Watching Pei Ran leave, Su Yan put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at the ginkgo tree, where the bowls and chopsticks had not moved from beginning to end.

After packing up her things, Lan Lan clamored to go around the town, saying that she was frightened by the evil spirit in the morning and hadn't taken a good look at the town yet.Su Yan thought that since they were going to live here forever, it would be good to get acquainted with the environment.When she went out, she saw that the food under the tree was still untouched, so Lan Lan was afraid that there would be ghosts and gods there, so she didn't dare to collect it.

Ginkgo Town is a beautiful place, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with spring-like seasons and beautiful scenery.The main source of income in Ginkgo Town is tea picking and embroidery. The Su family used to be a big embroidery family here. It used to be famous throughout Suzhou. After moving to the capital, they embroidered for the nobles in the palace. This reputation is even higher. up a floor.

Su Yan looked into the distance, and there was a large tea garden that could not be seen, and the fragrance of tea was everywhere.There is also a mountain next to the town. I heard Pei Ran say that the mountain is called Cuiping Mountain. It is also the only intersection to enter this ginkgo town, and it is also the place where they were in danger yesterday.It's just that the mountain is a dry mountain, with withered vegetation and no vitality. It doesn't fit next to the lush ginkgo town.

There is a small river at the foot of the mountain, where people get water for drinking.

Su Yan walked along the path next to the tea garden, and saw an old lady stretching out her hand to greet him. After a closer look, it was Aunt Wang whose grandson was bewitched this morning.

Aunt Wang pulled a seven or eight-year-old boy, Ah Hu, who had regained the child's innocent demeanor compared to the morning.

"You are Daoist Pei's apprentice, right? Thank you and Daoist Pei today." Aunt Wang was wearing a tea-picking outfit with a kind smile on her face.

Su Yan didn't deny it, and said with a smile: "Aunt Wang is too polite, I didn't do anything, it's all thanks to Daoist Pei."

"No no no, I only have this one grandson, it's just like life, you guys are very grateful for saving him." Aunt Wang said, and said to Ah Hu: "Hurry up and thank this sister."

Ahu raised his head and stared at Su Yan carefully, reacted for a while, and said, "Grandma, this is obviously a big brother."

Hearing this, Su Yan's expression froze, and Aunt Wang apologized to Su Yan with some embarrassment: "Girl, don't take it to heart, this child just likes to talk nonsense."

Ahu looked at Su Yan again. His big eyes were clear and clean, his skin was fair, and his small mouth was ruddy, like a small cherry. is a brother.

"It's my brother, a brother with stars hidden in his eyes." Ah Hu continued.

Aunt Wang also looked at Su Yan carefully, and saw that he was more beautiful than a woman, and if he wasn't thinner, she would have thought he was a good-looking man.

"Don't talk nonsense anymore!" Aunt Wang scolded, then smiled again, and said to Su Yan, "I don't know what the girl is called?"

"My name is Ah Yan, and this is Lan Lan." Su Yan introduced, he looked at Ah Hu smiling at himself, and said with a smile in his heart: Children's eyes are always the cleanest, and they can naturally see the most real things .

Aunt Wang enthusiastically said: "In the future, we are all one family, and you can come to me, the old lady, if you need help in the future."

After exchanging greetings, several tea-picking women came over and asked Su Yan and Lan Lan one after another. After all, it is rare to see such a beautiful woman in this small town. When they heard that it was Pei Ran's apprentices, they all showed Friendly smile.

"Where did Daoist Pei find this disciple? He looks so beautiful. We don't even have such a beautiful girl in Ginkgo Town."

"Yes, yes, the aura of cultivating Taoism is different, and it is still so beautiful without makeup."

Several people were praising there, but Su Yan's attention was attracted by the woman behind these women.She lowered her head, wearing a gray cloth kerchief on her head, and a tea-picking frame behind her back. She seemed not interested in their conversation. She stood quietly behind everyone. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice it. There is still such a person.

Su Yan looked at her carefully, and saw that she had a pretty face and a good appearance, but there was a faint blackness between her brows, but nothing unusual could be seen on her body.

"Are you living in the Su family's old house now?" A woman about 30 years old asked, Su Yan recovered and nodded.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and their expressions became a little weird.

Aunt Wang said: "You cultivators dare to live in the Su family's old house."

Su Yan was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Aunt Wang looked at the crowd, waved her hands and smiled, and said: "It's okay not to mention the old things. It's getting late, and Gingko Town is not very safe at night. You should go back earlier. If you are free, sit at the old woman's house." sit."

"Okay." Su Yan nodded.

Saying farewell to everyone, they walked towards each house scatteredly.

When passing by that woman, Su Yan deliberately looked at the woman with her head down. After careful observation, there seemed to be nothing wrong except for the black air between her eyebrows.

The sun was also slowly setting, so Su Yan and Lan Lan walked back.Su Yan frowned all the way, whether the old things that Aunt Wang said had something to do with the man today, he was a little curious, what happened in the Su family's old house back then, and he had a strong premonition that it had something to do with his mother.

Lan Lan looked Su Yan back and forth along the way, looking at his thoughtful appearance.

"Miss, I just found out today that if you put on men's clothes, you will definitely be handsome, Lan Lan, I will definitely be the first to fall in love with you." Lan Lan said, showing the appearance of a little girl.

Su Yan's face froze, and he looked at Lan Lan with a tentative tone and said, "Lan Lan, what should I do if I'm really a man?"

Lan Lan put her hands behind her head and calmly said: "Miss, what are you kidding? Lan Lan has served you for so many years, don't I know if you are a man or a woman? But, to be honest, why didn't I find out that Miss You have suddenly grown taller in the past two years, Lan Lan, I am two months older than you, but look, you are now a head taller than me." She stretched out her hand and gestured.

Su Yan's face darkened and he didn't speak. Sure enough, if he suddenly told the truth, no one would accept it.

Lan Lan said thoughtfully: "It's really strange, we all eat the same food, why do you grow taller, it's just this..." He said and looked at Su Yan's chest, why is the lady seventeen? It's unbelievable that it hasn't developed yet.

Su Yan subconsciously covered his chest with his hands, glanced at Lan Lan's slightly protruding chest, blushed, and stammered, "Maybe, what I eat is just to grow taller. Hurry up, or God will It's all dark." He didn't want to discuss this topic with Lan Lan any more, so he walked forward quickly.
