The wind outside was very strong, and Ning Caichen's hair was flying behind him, and it had never fallen. Feeling the sound of the wind in his ears, Ning Caichen sat motionlessly in front of the windowsill, staring at the distance with his eyes without any gathering points.

"Is it going to rain?" Qin Hui, who was drinking alone, tightened the sword around her waist after hearing the whimpering wind outside the door, and then walked out.

"Sir, you still have to go out so late! Do you need us to prepare sedan chairs?" At the county yamen gate, two yamen runners watching Qin Hui walking out with a sword in their arms, asked with a smile.

Qin Hui looked at the attentive yamen runner, shook her head and said, "No need, I'm going to listen to the opera. If there are too many people, the opera will change."

"Yes, sir, please walk slowly." The two yamen runners opened the door of the mansion and gave way to Qin Hui.

After leaving the house, Qin Hui walked on the street, looking at the shops on both sides that had already closed their doors and windows, and headed towards Lanruo Temple without saying a word.

"Dang, dang, dang." Ning Caichen listened to the knock on the door in his ear, and a knowing smile appeared on his face.

"Xiaoqian, I've been waiting for you for a long time, come in."

As Ning Caichen said, the door was pushed open.

"Why are you back? Ning Caichen, you are a good person. You can leave quickly. Grandma will come here in person tonight. It is not safe here." Nie Xiaoqian looked at Ning Caichen with a smile on her face and said with an ugly face.

Ning Caichen did not answer Xiaoqian's words, but asked directly, "Xiaoqian, are you a ghost?"

"Ah...!" After hearing Ning Caichen's words, Nie Xiaoqian was stunned and showed a sad look on her face.

"You know everything? Then why are you coming back? Are you here to laugh at me?" Looking at Ning Caichen with a tender face, Nie Xiaoqian asked sadly, holding the wooden door at the door.

Ning Caichen said nothing, but came to Nie Xiaoqian and placed her cold hand on her chest.

Looking at Nie Xiaoqian who was a little cringing, Ning Caichen looked at her eyes and replied obsessively, "I'm back because I like you. Xiaoqian, no matter whether you are a human or a ghost, I, Ning Caichen, will like you."

"Humans and ghosts are different. What's the use of you just like me?" Nie Xiaoqian said, suddenly pulled his hand back, and then walked to the window. Nie Xiaoqian looked at the scenery outside the window, listened to the sound of the wind blowing leaves outside the window, and said again. "Caichen, it's impossible for us. I'm just a lonely ghost, and I've been betrothed to the Black Mountain Old Demon by my grandma. I'll pass the door in more than ten days. And you are a good person. Now, before grandma comes, you can leave quickly. There are not many good people like you in the world, and I don't want to harm you."

Ning Caichen looked at Nie Xiaoqian's appearance and shook his head firmly and said, "Xiaoqian, I will not give up, because no one will love you more than me. I know that you have a hard time living under the hands of the tree spirit. Don't worry, the big bearded man in Lanruo Temple today will compete with the tree spirit here. When they fight, I will take you away."

Looking at Ning Caichen's focused look and the firm words in his mouth, Nie Xiaoqian, who had never been so good to him, couldn't help but the corners of his eyes gradually became wet.

"Sha, Sha, Sha." Just as the two met each other and said nothing, an abnormal voice suddenly came from outside the window. Unlike Ning Caichen's strange expression, Nie Xiaoqian's face changed drastically after hearing this voice.

"No, this is the sound of grandma's tongue. Come with me quickly, otherwise it will be too late!" Nie Xiaoqian said, grabbing Ning Caichen's clothes and flying out the window.

"Woo..." With a sound of breaking through the air, the tongue that was about one and a half meters wide and could not see the end of the length flew in from the window and knocked Xiaoqian, who was holding Ning Caichen, to fly away.

"Xiaoqian, Xiaoqian, are you okay?" Ning Caichen, who had rolled on the ground twice after falling from the air, immediately climbed up regardless of the pain on his body and hugged Nie Xiaoqian who fell to the ground. After hugging Nie Xiaoqian, Ning Caichen raised the bell in his hand and shook it violently.

"Ring, bell...ah! This bell is broken!" After shaking it twice, Ning Caichen was stunned when he looked at the broken copper bell.

"Woo... Be careful!" As Nie Xiaoqian said, the tongue of the tree spirit spit out, after knocking the two of them, immediately shot straight towards Ning Caichen, who was nervous, and rolled Ning Caichen up.

Ning Caichen, who was rolled up, grabbed the tip of the tree demon's tongue with both hands and resisted with all his might.

Looking at Ning Caichen who was struggling, Nie Xiaoqian quickly spoke, "Don't let the tree demon's tongue stretch into your mouth, otherwise he will use you as nutrients and suck it into adults." As he said this, Nie Xiaoqian waved the sleeves on both hands. And with Xiaoqian's movement, the two sleeves were like spiders spitting silk, and two white ribbons flew out of the sleeves. After these two white ribbons flew out, they were directly wrapped around the tongue of the tree spirit, and after knotting, they tied them to the logs on the beam of the beam.

After doing all this, Xiaoqian pulled the ribbon hard and strangled the tree spirit's tongue hard. As Nie Xiaoqian's movements, the tree spirit's tongue was painful and released Ning Caichen who was being rolled up.

"You go quickly!" Nie Xiaoqian looked at Ning Caichen who was coughing constantly due to lack of oxygen, and another white silk ribbon flew out of her sleeve. The flying ribbon surrounded Ning Caichen's waist and then flew out of the window with him.

"Ning Caichen, we have no fate. You should follow this white ribbon now. Remember before dawn, don't look back no matter what, otherwise you will be caught by grandma." Nie Xiaoqian pulled the ribbon with her hands, wrapped around the tongue of the tree spirit, and turned her head and shouted at Ning Caichen who was flying out.

"Xiaoqian, you will be killed by him. I won't leave, I will be with you." Ning Caichen, who was carried by a white ribbon, grabbed the edge of the window with both hands and replied loudly.

"Go away! I can't hold on anymore. Only when you are alive can we meet again! And he wants to marry me to the old demon of the Black Mountain. He dare not kill me before this." As he spoke, although Ning Xiaoqian gritted his teeth and tried his best to resist the tongue of the tree spirit. However, because Nie Xiaoqian's strength was huge and the tree grandma was greatly different. In just a while, the white ribbon in Nie Xiaoqian's hand had traces of damage.

"Okay, you must wait for me! I'll go find Yan Chixia to save you." After Ning Caichen said that, he let go of his hand and let the white ribbon take him away.

"Ning Caichen, Ning Caichen! Wait for me! Wait for me!" Ning Caichen listened to the sudden sound in his ears, thinking about Nie Xiaoqian's warning, while holding his ears and running desperately.

"Ning Caichen, I am Xiaoqian. You said you love me very much. Do you want me anymore?" Just as Ning Caichen was running wildly, Nie Xiaoqian's voice suddenly appeared behind him.

"It's not Xiaoqian, it must be the tree spirit to make the spell, it must be the tree spirit to make the spell...ah..." Ning Caichen listened to the words in his ears, and howled loudly, trying to suppress the sound in his ears.

"Caichen, I feel so painful! Grandma Shu hurt me and I'm going to die. You're looking at me for the last time!"

"What! Xiaoqian, what's wrong with you? Don't die!" Hearing the words behind him, Ning Caichen hurriedly couldn't help but look back.

"Swish..." Just as Ning Caichen looked back, the white ribbon on his feet disappeared without a trace.

"Xiaoqian, how are you? Where are you?" Ning Caichen looked at the bushes behind him and shouted loudly.

Ning Caichen hurriedly searched, trying to find out Nie Xiaoqian's location.

"Caichen, it's all my fault. If you don't defend the voice of the tree spirit, you may not be able to leave today!" As he spoke, Nie Xiaoqian fell from the air to the ground and said softly.

"Xiaoqian, how are you?" Ning Caichen looked at Nie Xiaoqian's weak look and quickly ran to her side.

"Ouch!" Ning Caichen, who was running desperately, hit the tree with a squeak of pain.

"Where do you want to go?" As he spoke, the tree turned into a man in black clothes, half-male and not womanly.

"Tree Spirit! You are a tree spirit!" Ning Caichen exclaimed in surprise when he looked at the man who suddenly appeared.

"Oh! You scholar's tender skin must be delicious!" Grandma Shu said, holding Ning Caichen in her arms, then licking Ning Caichen's face with her long tongue, and looking like she was filled with reminiscence.

"Dare to hit Xiaoqian, go to die!" Just as Grandma Shu was thinking about how to eat Ning Caichen, Ning Caichen, who was licked with saliva on her face, showed a fierce look as she spoke, then pulled out the golden needle hidden on her body and stabbed it on Grandma Shu's chest.

"Ah..." The tree spirit pushed Ning Caichen out with a howl.

"I want me to die! You are dreaming!" A demonic aura erupted from the tree spirit, and then pulled out the golden needle inserted into his chest.

"Ah...! I will definitely make you live worse than death!" The tree spirit roared and threw the golden needle on the ground, then pointed at Ning Caichen and tied him to a big tree with branches.

Ning Caichen, who was tied up, struggled hard, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from the constraints of the tender branches in front of him. Just when Ning Caichen was at a loss and wanted to accept his fate, a fireball suddenly fell from the sky and hit the big tree that tied Ning Caichen.

"Big Bearded Man, where have you been? If you don't come, I'll die!" Ning Caichen watched Yan Chixia, who had grabbed him in his hand, breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Chixia looked at Ning Caichen with an angry face and said angrily, "It's not you, you, the evil spirit. I told you to ring the bell, but you never shake it. As a result, I hid in the basement and were made dumplings by the mummies who rushed over. You almost killed me today!"

"Die Taoist, you dare to rob the flesh of my mouth!" Grandma Shu looked at Yan Chixia who suddenly appeared, her voice sounded like a man, and the woman said, her tone was full of dissatisfaction with Yan Chixia.

"Hahahaha." With a burst of laughter, Yan Chixia pointed to Ning Caichen beside her and said to Grandma Shu. "I don't care if you kill those bad guys, but this scholar has a pure and honest style, no use in learning, and nothing can be achieved. If you want to kill him now, it is obvious that you won't give me face."

After hearing Yan Chixia's words, Ning Caichen couldn't help but look ugly and said to Yan Chixia in a low voice, "Big Bearded, you're saying me so well!"

"You are stupid! How could I say better than him if I don't brag!" Yan Chixia replied in a low voice with Ning Caichen's dissatisfaction.

Looking at the two whispering, Grandma Shu narrowed her eyes and asked loudly, "You said today that I won't give you face! But when you killed my maid, have you ever thought about giving me face?"

"Yeah Yeah Yeah! You old woman who is neither male nor female, do you really think it is useful to talk about face? If we don't talk about face today, let us work hard." Yan Chixia said, making a face at Grandma Shu, and then held the sword in her hand.

"The road of life is like a long road, and the wind and frost on the road are dry. In the world, there are many directions for beautiful dreams. Find the love of the dream center, and the road follows the vastness of people."
