The leaves are turning yellow and the mountains and rivers are in autumn.

Three figures stood at the entrance of the Taoist temple, all wearing Taoist robes. The one in front looked to be in his thirties, the two in the back looked like teenage Taoist priests, and behind them stood a donkey with a bamboo basket on its back.

There is also a fox on the ground looking into the distance.

The second senior brother took several small porcelain bottles and handed them over to Lin Jue and the younger junior sister.

"Remember, the green bottle contains the Shenxing Dan, and the white bottle contains the Heart-Protect Dan. If you take it, you will not be confused and be confused by the miasma and ghosts. The green bottle is the Shatang Dan. If you eat it, you will not be confused.

Even if you fall into the water, you won't drown, and you can move freely. The red bottle is a light-returning pill, which can stop bleeding and injuries. If you are seriously injured and unable to walk, you can walk to the hospital after eating it."

The little junior sister looked solemn and worked hard to remember.

Lin Jue also wrote it down.

"Senior Brother Donkey still has some elixirs and heavenly materials and earthly treasures on his back. Let's see if we can exchange them for some useful things at the Taoist meeting. Your third senior brother is unreliable. You must remember that although the elixirs are sealed,

Yes, some treatments have been done on Tiancai Dibao so that it can be exposed to rain, but cannot fall into the water. If there is a heavy rain, you need to take shelter just in case."

The senior brother warned the two of them again just like Taoist Yunhe had warned them when they first went down the mountain with the third senior brother to slay the demons.

The third senior brother didn't mind after hearing this, he just stood aside and laughed.

"When you get to Mingqing Mountain, listen more to your third senior brother, but don't listen to everything. There is a mixture of fish and dragons at the Zhaijiao. In addition to the Taoist temples of the Fulu sect and the serious Taoist temples of the Lingfa sect, there are also many unbelievers and strange people in the world. The behavior of these people is different from the others.

The character is uncertain. There are people outside the world, there are mountains beyond the mountains, and there are many magic techniques in the world, which are tricky and elusive. Don't easily conflict with others."

"Noted it down."

"Remember it!"

Both of them said solemnly.

"Senior brother, please remember what I said. Cook the air-dried pork ribs and rice into porridge without adding anything else. It can be eaten as breakfast. Dice the salted vegetables and bacon and fry them in lard. It can be eaten as a side dish for dinner. Remember.

, the bacon needs to be soaked in water for two hours first.”

"Remember."

The senior brother waved his hand.

"Go ahead."

The little fox could understand people's words. Hearing the sound, he turned around and looked at Lin Jue. When he saw Lin Jue shaking the book behind him and taking a step forward, it jumped forward.

There is a staircase ahead.

The little fox only jumped slightly, and with a light body, he crossed the twelve stone steps and landed on the flat ground below.

He looked back at Lin Jue again.

The three of them also walked slowly down.

"Your senior brother and second senior brother are very long-winded. Like them, worrying about this and that will make you exhausted." The third senior brother said as he walked, and then smiled, "Junior brother, you are about the same. But I think you

It's useless to warn you. Those ribs and bacon won't last for a few days. After you leave, the mouths and bellies of some people in the temple will still have to suffer what they deserve."

Someone behind him had a grimace on his face.

Lin Jue carried a book on his back and a whistle stick, and soon reached the forest path. The ground was covered with fallen leaves, and there was an autumn scene in the mountains.

There are three swords stuck on the donkey's back.

Two iron swords from Taoist temples, and a good sword given to me by people from the Jianghu community in the snow late at night.

Taoist robe, black donkey and sword.

There is actually a bit of a quack spirit.

"You can listen to some of what your senior brother says, but you can't listen to everything."

As the third senior brother walked, he repeated the senior brother's words again, as if to contradict him:

"When you meet those miscellaneous people on Mingqing Mountain, you really shouldn't conflict with them easily, but if others come to provoke you, don't be afraid. No matter what, we go out to represent Yishan and the orthodox spiritual method.

Pai represents the name and Taoism of the founder.

"Besides, those Taoists of the Fulu Sect, haha, they can summon gods to conquer demons and demons, so they are very good at it. If they fight with others, how can they have much Taoism?

“We at Fuqiu Guan also have a wide network of contacts.

"The most important thing is-

"People in the world are free and easy, but if you are too careful, sometimes it will be difficult to make friends with them!

"..."

Lin Jue and his junior sister looked at each other.

Of course what the eldest brother said makes sense, but what the third brother said obviously also makes sense, it's just that they have different personalities and attitudes towards things. How to choose between them and how many points they get depends on themselves.

"Won't the gods help fellow Taoists from the Fu Lu Sect in fighting?" the junior sister asked curiously as she walked.

"This is natural! The reason why the Fulu Sect is blooming everywhere is not only because it is simple to practice, but also because it poses no threat to people?" said the third senior brother. "The gods can help them subjugate and eliminate demons and exorcise monsters. However, if it involves people and

The court has its own affairs when it comes to people. If the gods help with everything, including dealing with people, how can the court let them build temples and preach?"

"Yes..."

The junior sister nodded, thinking it made sense.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the forest:

"This is not entirely correct! The so-called etiquette and laws are mostly in the prosperous times, and the gods do not interfere in human affairs. They are the etiquette and laws of the gods. However, there are troubled times in the human world. Isn't it the case in the Nine Heavens?"

The voice was strange, and it didn't sound like a human being.

Lin Jue was already very familiar with it.

Even not only the voice, but also the tone of voice and the wording of rebuttals are very familiar.

In the past year or so, he had gone up and down the mountain more than a dozen times. Every time he passed by this place, he would often call out to his seniors in the mountains. Sometimes he would get a response, sometimes not, and sometimes he would speak before he even called him.

As time passed, although they still had not met each other or knew each other's names, they seemed to have some friendship.

The third senior brother just nodded after hearing this.

He and Lin Jue went down the mountain for shopping several times, and gradually got to know this monster.

This person is probably lonely and bored, and it's probably because of his personality. Every time a Taoist passes by here, if something is wrong during the conversation, he will definitely jump out and correct him.

And it is knowledgeable and most of what it says makes sense.

Just like this time——

In troubled times, there is a lack of regular etiquette.

The same goes for gods.

"Senior's life span is far longer than ours, so he has naturally seen more than us." The third senior brother used polite words, but his expression was very casual. He casually held his hand and said, "I wonder when Jiutian's troubled times will be again?"

"Can you ask such a simple question?"

"The poor Taoist has little knowledge."

"Ha! You guys just built a temple for the mountain spirits at the foot of the mountain next door a few months ago and stabilized the gods. Don't you know where most of the gods came from? Don't you know where the power of the gods comes from? In the past nine days,

How many times have the main gods changed, and when did they change? Haven't you read the history books and divine books?"

"How do you say that?"

"How stupid!" the forest spirit sighed, as if it reminded people of the scene where it shakes its head because it hates iron. "The troubled times on earth are the troubled times of gods!"

"It makes sense..."

The third senior brother nodded and sighed.

Its voice came out from the forest again: "Where are you going? With so many things, it doesn't look like you are going to the village at the foot of the mountain to exchange for purchases."

The third senior brother did not answer, but turned to look at Lin Jue beside him.

He knew that this person only liked to argue and rarely chatted with others. He also had no friendship with him, so this question was obviously not meant for him.

"Let's go to Mingqian Mountain to participate in the big festival." Lin Jue replied.

"We're holding a big feast again!"

"yes."

"The road here is not peaceful, especially in Huizhou. It is very uneven. There are more monsters and ghosts. The younger you are, the more unruly you are. You have to be more careful."

"Thank you, senior."

That voice no longer sounded.

Lin Jue and others also continued walking.

It seems that the pace has never stopped.

Just as Taoist Yunhe said at the beginning, "It would be nice to meet such a monster." Therefore, as the number of encounters increased, Lin Jue was no longer surprised, but took it as fun.

"Brother, where are we today?"

"How do I know? I just go wherever I go."

"Huh? Senior brother, don't you know where to go?"

"The world is so big, Mingqing Mountain is so far away, and I have never been there. I only know how to walk in the past two days, and I know the general direction, so I will walk first and then ask as I go."

"Then where will we stay on the road? What will we eat?"

"Didn't you bring tart cakes? I ate one while it was hot last night. It was delicious and had lots of meat fillings!"

The third senior brother smiled and walked forward, looking at ease:

"We who are cultivators are close to heaven and earth. We cannot be blown down by the wind or damaged by the rain. Naturally, we have to live in hotels when we encounter them. There is no hotel between heaven and earth. If there is a hotel to sit in, there is no hotel to eat tart cakes. When the car arrives,

There must be a road in front of the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.

"What to do if you are so confused?

"It's just adding trouble."

Lin Jue also seemed to be infected by him and smiled.

"That's fine."

It seems that what the senior brother said is right, what the master said is also right, and the third senior brother is unreliable.

Fortunately, Lin Jue didn't mind at all.

Turning around to look at the junior sister.

The junior sister also had a calm look on her face. She had to go out to build roads even when it snowed, so naturally she didn't care about sleeping in the open air.

There is also a little fox...

Forget it, it is wild.

"Then what if there is a heavy rainstorm and the elixirs and natural treasures are all damaged?"

"Then you senior brothers, I will be scolded..."

"Ha ha!"

The laughter spread throughout the mountains, making the fox look back.

He looked back and then continued forward.

Lin Jue saw it running and jumping freely in front, like an elf in the world, jumping over streams, crossing bridges, and climbing over mountains and ridges. Only when it walked on the main road did it become more honest when there were many people, and came to Lin Jue's side.

The sun is getting higher and setting towards the west.

It was dusk before I knew it.

As expected, dusk fell on the mountain road, and the group could not see the hotel from the front or rear.

"The autumn wind makes me sleep, and the fallen leaves help me sleep. It's just right. It's neither cold nor hot today. Isn't it God who helps me feel at ease in the mountains?"

The third brother found a flat ground under a tree and began to unload the bamboo basket on the donkey's back. He simply threw the three swords on the ground and into the pile of fallen leaves.

Lin Jue also put down his book.

I also saw that the third senior brother found some stones and larger branches, and built a square frame under the tree. The stones were the four corners, and the branches connected them into lines. The sword and luggage were all in the frame.

Only then did the third senior brother step in.

"Senior brother, this is..."

Seeing the two people looking confused, the third senior brother explained:

"You don't know something. People have their own rules. Goblins and ghosts have their own rules. There are also rules between people and goblins and ghosts -

"The place with roads and houses is the territory of human beings, and the place far away from the road is the world of spirits. The day is the time for human activities, and the night belongs to spirits. People will not spend the night casually in the wild, and neither will the exquisite fairies and ghosts.

They will invade the mansion at will, so there will be some spirits that trick people into opening the door, and some smart beasts will do the same.

"If you spend the night in the wild, you can set up a box. This way, even if this happens to be the territory of a certain spirit, if it sees it, it will not come to trouble you casually.

"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and there are many monsters and ghosts. It is easy to dodge open guns and hidden arrows, and even if you are not afraid, it is not good to sleep if you are disturbed.

"Please have some peace and quiet!"

The third senior brother has already sat down cross-legged in the frame.

The long sword was placed next to him.

"So that's it."

It seems that the third senior brother does have some experience in martial arts.

Lin Jue and the other two also walked in.

Sit or lie down, listen to the wind blowing in the mountains and forests, and watch the fallen leaves flying. Although the weather is average today and you can't see the sun, you still wait quietly for the sky to darken little by little, and prepare to spend the night.

However, before the skylight completely disappeared, Lin Jue felt that the mountain wind blowing over him seemed to have become stronger, the sounds in the mountains and forests also became more noisy, and he could even feel a little bit of moisture in the wind.

Looking up at the sky, it is dark and turbid.

Lin Jue couldn't help but frown——

It seems like it's going to rain.
Chapter completed!
