Outside the bus station,

Lian Ge paused again, and the old monk also stopped.

On the road in front of you, vehicles pass by from time to time, and on your side, pedestrians pass by from time to time.

"Zen Master Jikong, where are we going now?"

Looking at the hustle and bustle of the road in front of him, Lian Ge asked in a calm tone.

Hearing this, the old monk was silent,

“...... It's up to the donor to decide. ”

When Lian Ge heard this, he didn't say anything more, raised his head slightly, looked at the city in the distance, and then moved his steps and walked along the road towards the increasingly noisy city.

The old monk was silent, and he also held on to the branch, followed closely, and followed.

......

"Into the city, into the city, the city hospital, the square ......"

As you move along the road, it becomes more and more noisy on your side.

The sound of vehicles passing by, the sound of pedestrians, and the shouting of shops on the street are mixed.

Walking around, the old man carrying the vegetables, the young man in a hurry, the couple snuggling and talking, all kinds of people passed by Lian Ge and the old monk, and then went away behind him.

Lian Ge moved his steps, along the street, watching, listening, the old monk was silent, holding on to the branch, and also walked closely by Lian Ge's side.

“...... It's coming, it's coming, it's coming soon. ”

A middle-aged man on the phone hurriedly passed by Lian Ge and the others,

“...... What do you want to eat at noon, baby?"

In a car waiting for a traffic light, a woman asked her child sitting in the back seat,

“...... It's been a long time since we've been home, so let's go home this weekend, shall we?"

A young couple walked past Lian Ge and the two as they spoke

......

The mixed sound sounded in Lian Ge's ears, and in the distance, gradually moving away.

Lian Ge and the old monk walked forward, and the streets were swept by, either bustling and noisy, or deserted and quiet.

Overhead, the sun behind the clouds and mist came out from time to time, slowly changing its position.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak......"

After turning into a street again, on Lian Ge's shoulder, the squatting mouse stood up its forelimbs and screamed twice,

Lian Ge paused, and the old monk also followed closely and stopped.

"Cheap donor, your ...... What do you seem to be saying?" The old monk turned his head, looked at the mouse standing on Lian Ge's shoulder, and asked out loud,

"It said it was hungry. Lian Ge turned his gaze, glanced at the guinea pig, smiled slightly, retracted his gaze, and looked forward along the street in front of him.

Along both sides of the street, there are restaurants and restaurants, which are full of diners, and people come and go from time to time.

The aroma of the food, along with the noisy sound, overflowed and permeated the entire street.

"Let's go, Zen Master Jikong. ”

After a pause, Lian Ge said a word and walked towards one of the restaurants.

When the old monk heard this, he paused in place,

"Cheap donor, the poor monk has no money to eat. ”

"Since you call me a benefactor, let me give you this meal. ”

After a slight pause, Lian Ge continued to walk towards the restaurant,

The old monk paused again, but still followed closely and followed.

......

“...... Little brother...... This master,"

Stepping into the restaurant, the waiter who was busy on the side hurriedly greeted him.

first greeted Lian Ge, then looked at the old monk, hesitated at first, but still greeted with a smile,

"What are you two going to eat today?"

“...... Boss, bring another case of beer, ask for ice. ”

"Coming, coming......"

The waiter asked, and there was another shout in the restaurant.

The waiter hurriedly answered, turned his head again, and handed over the order menu with a pen.

"You two see what you want to eat, please check it first, I'll come over right away,"

As he spoke, the waiter turned his head and looked into the lobby of the restaurant.

"It's a meal at this time, and there are a lot of people, so I'm afraid you two will have to wait for the next table first, so I'm really embarrassed...... The two of you will sit down first, and let's order the food first. ”

Lian Ge took the menu and the pen, and looked at the restaurant.

At the tables, people were already seated,

Several middle-aged men are sitting at the back table, either holding beer bottles directly, or holding beer glasses, drinking wine.

An old couple sat by the window, eating, talking,

Behind the old couple, there was a slight vacancy, and there was only one man sitting at the table, about thirty or forty years old, wearing a shirt on the top and trousers on the bottom.

He was holding a pen, bowing his head, looking at the order menu on the table, and seemed to hesitate.

......

"Those two will order first......"

The waiter said another word, then turned and walked away again.

After Lian Ge glanced at the waiter, then at the middle-aged man who was ordering, after a pause, he moved his steps and walked towards the table.

The old monk followed closely and followed.

......

“...... Dude, I don't know if I can share a table?"

Walking to the dining table, Lian Ge glanced at the man, smiled slightly, and asked out loud,

Hearing this, the man who was holding the menu and was a little hesitant raised his head, looked at Lian Ge and the old monk standing next to him, turned his head again, and looked at the other tables in the restaurant,

"Please. ”

Retracting his gaze, the man looked at Lian Ge and the old monk and nodded.

Smiling, Lian Ge sat down at the table.

The old monk looked at the man, who was also silent, and sat down beside him.

The man lowered his head again, looked at the order menu, his eyes swept over the dishes, but the pen in his hand did not fall.

Glancing at the man again, Lian Ge turned his gaze back,

......

"What does Zen Master Jiekong want to eat?" Lian Ge asked aloud with a pen,

“...... Let's have a bowl of porridge or noodles. The old monk turned his head, paused, and answered.

When Lian Ge heard this, he glanced at the old monk and didn't say anything more, just sketched a few strokes on the menu.

On the other side of the table, the man who was a little hesitant also made a mark on the menu and paused.

......

“...... This big brother. There are two more, have you ordered all the dishes?"

The waiter who was busy on the side wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked over again, and asked in a loud voice,

Seeing that Lian Ge and the man had already paused, he reached out and took the menu,

“...... Back to the pot meat, lychee meat, a portion of vegetarian stir-fried vegetables, no green onions, and a portion of vegetable porridge...... Wait a minute, you'll be up to you. ”

The waiter first glanced at the dishes ordered by Lian Ge and the old monk, and then looked over the menu ordered by the man.

"You just want a vegetarian fried shredded potato, do you want to order something else?" the waiter turned his head to look at the man and asked,

"Let's take another bowl of rice. The man nodded and said in a loud voice,

"Cheng, then you wait a minute. The waiter answered, took the two à la carte menus, turned around quickly, and walked away again.

After watching the waiter walk away, Lian Ge turned his gaze back, and after glancing at the man across the table, he withdrew his gaze and looked out of the restaurant through the side window.

The man, on the other hand, was a little silent, looking at the approach, his eyes a little distracted,

The old monk turned his gaze and looked at the tables of customers in the restaurant.

......

“...... Our son has been gone for so long this time, and he hasn't come back, and I don't know what's going on outside. ”

"Didn't you call home a few days ago, and if you want me to say, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and when the child is older, he is tossing outside, let him toss ......"

Behind the dining table where Lian Ge and the old monk were sitting, the old couple was talking and eating.

"And it's not the meat that fell off your body, you don't feel distressed. ”

"That's what I mean, it's not that the child is busy outside, it's all night long, it's not good to call, isn't it ......"

“...... Hey, yes, you said that this kid is not easy to ...... outside."

...... It seemed that he also heard the sound of words at the adjacent table, and opposite Lian Ge, the man raised his head and looked at the old couple, a little distracted.
