Chen Nan was only a hundred meters away from the straw hut. He dashed over at full speed and arrived in front of the straw hut in the blink of an eye.
The straw hut was very simple. It covered an area of about twenty square meters. The roof was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the door was tightly shut.
"Yiyi, are you inside?"
Chen Nan was certain that this was his little junior sister's residence. As he shouted, he rushed over and pushed the door open impatiently.
There was only one room inside. The furnishings were very simple.
There was a wooden table, a bamboo chair, and a bed.
There was also a teapot on the wooden table. Beside the teapot was a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. However, Ye Yiyi was nowhere to be seen.
In order to confirm whether this was his little junior sister's residence, Chen Nan strode in.
The entire room was filled with a familiar aura. Chen Nan took a deep breath. He looked at the paper on the table that was pressed down by the inkstone and reached out to pick it up.
On the snow-white paper, there was a handwriting that was even better than Chen Nan's. It was Ye Yiyi's handwriting.
"Lovesick, I don't know when we'll meet again. It's embarrassing to be in love at this time of the night."
Looking at the words on the paper, each stroke revealed a strong sense of lovesickness. Chen Nan felt a stab of pain in his heart. He would never be able to repay his little junior sister's affection for him in this lifetime.
He flipped to the second page. It was also a line of poetry.
"There's a limit to the ends of the world. There's only endless lovesickness."
Chen Nan's hands trembled as he flipped to the third page. It was Yuan Haowen's "Yanqiu Ci".
"What is love in the world? Why does it make people pledge their lives to each other? Lovers from all over the world fly together. How many times does the old wing go through winter and summer? Joy is interesting, parting is painful, and there are even more foolish children. The Lord should have words. Vast clouds cover thousands of miles, thousands of mountains and sunset snow. Who does the shadow go to?
On Hengfen Road, loneliness used to play flutes and drums. Barren smoke still flattened Chu. How can the soul-summoning Chu compare? Mountain ghosts cry in the wind and rain. Even the heavens are jealous. Without faith, the orioles and swallows are all yellow soil. Throughout the ages, in order to keep the slut here, I sang and drank to my heart's content, and visited Wild Goose Hill. "
There were more than ten pieces of paper on the table. Chen Nan flipped through them one by one. By the time he had finished reading all the papers, his tears had already flowed down his cheeks and soaked his clothes.
Men don't cry easily, only when they are deeply hurt.
Chen Nan folded the dozen or so pieces of paper in his hand and kept them close to his body. Every stroke on the paper represented his junior sister's deep longing for him. Although it was only a few pieces of paper, to him, it was more important than anything else.
After rubbing his eyes, Chen Nan finally came to his senses. He quickly rushed out of the thatched hut and continued to search for his Junior Sister.
However, he practically ran through the entire Fire Qilin Mountain, but did not find any clues at all.
"Yiyi, where are you?!"
Chen Nan looked up to the sky and roared. The rolling sound waves were like a large bell, echoing between heaven and earth and straight to the Nine Heavens.
He clenched his fists tightly. His nails had already pierced into his flesh and blood dripped down from his fists. He could no longer feel the pain. At this moment, the pain in his heart was a thousand times worse than the pain in his hands.
His Junior Sister had risked everything for him, risking her life alone. However, in the end, he could not even find her shadow. He did not even know if she was dead or alive.
Chen Nan's heart was filled with hatred. He hated himself for being useless. He only came to Fire Qilin Mountain when the danger had already occurred.
The battle here obviously happened in the past one or two days. If he had come a day or two earlier, things would not have turned out like this! Even if he could not get the Chaos Fire Lotus, as long as his Junior Sister was safe and sound, so what?
"Ye Yiyi, you are too selfish! My headache is not a fatal illness. Why do you have to risk your life for this bullshit Fire Lotus? If something happens to you, how do you expect me to live in the future?! "
Chen Nan's eyes were red. He punched the ice on the ground with his fists. Not only did he hate himself for being useless, but he also hated his Junior Sister!
He hated her for being too stupid. He hated her for loving him too much. He hated her for risking her life to snatch the Chaos Fire Lotus.
"You fool, you better live well. Otherwise, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!"
Chen Nan's fists kept punching the ice that was as hard as a rock. Because he did not use his internal energy to protect his body, the flesh on his fists split open. Blood sprayed out like a mist, dyeing the ice on the ground red. However, it was as if he did not feel pain. His fists kept on punching the ice, creating a half-foot deep hole in the ice on the ground.
After venting his anger, Chen Nan sat weakly on the ground.
He came late. He did not know where to find his Junior Sister. He did not even know if she was dead or alive.
Just as he was at a loss and did not know where to go, a loud voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Amitabha, good, good!"
Chen Nan quickly turned around and saw a sloppy monk with a red face walking over.
This guy looked to be in his fifties. He had half an inch of hair on his head, and it was unknown how long it had been since he last shaved it. The gray monk's robe was tattered, and the bright yellow sea green robe was dirty and torn. Even the outermost kasaya was full of holes. He did not look like a monk at all. If it was not for the fact that he recited the name of Buddha, people would even think that this monk was a fake.
The monk walked at a moderate pace, but every step he took covered a distance of two to three meters.
In just a few steps, he arrived in front of Chen Nan. He put his palms together and looked solemn. He faintly revealed the demeanor of an eminent monk. "This poor monk's clothes are tattered. I have frightened you."
Chen Nan had run through the entire Fire Qilin Mountain but did not see a single living person. Now that he saw this monk, he hurriedly got up and rushed over. "Master, may I ask if you have seen a girl in white clothes?" As Chen Nan spoke, he hurriedly took out the photo of his little junior sister.
The monk stared at the photo and his eyes sparkled with excitement. His original image of an eminent monk instantly disappeared. He grinned, revealing a mouthful of … golden teeth. "This young lady is so beautiful!"
As he spoke, his face was full of smiles as he swallowed his saliva.
Chen Nan was stunned. What kind of monk was this? His eyes lit up when he saw a beautiful woman!
After putting away the photo, Chen Nan continued to ask, "Master, have you seen her before?"
The monk swallowed his saliva and his eyes were dull. It was as if he was still immersed in the joy of seeing the beauty's photo.
Chen Nan was speechless.
He had seen a lot of monks, but this was the first time he had seen such a perverted monk.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the monk asked, "Who is the young lady in the picture to you?"
"She's my junior sister."
Chen Nan answered a little dejectedly.
He basically did not have much hope for the monk. If the monk had seen his little junior sister in person, he would not have been so stunned when he saw the photo.
"In that case, you must be Chen Nan, right?" The monk smacked his head and sighed. "No wonder this young lady looks so familiar. So it's that lass, Ye Yiyi! What a pity, what a pity. I'm not a monk. "
Chen Nan's body trembled. He grabbed the monk's shoulder and shook it a few times. He said impatiently, "Master, you know my junior sister? Where is she? "
