I didn't answer, just smiled awkwardly.

The master did not get angry at my disrespect, nodded to me kindly, and took up a pen to write a line of Buddhist words on a piece of yellow silk paper.

"The past is unattainable, the present is unattainable, and the future is unattainable. ”

I know that this sentence comes from the Diamond Sutra, but this is not the most famous sentence in the Diamond Sutra.

The old woman was still standing beside me, and she also saw the contents of the silk paper, and her eyes were smiling.

"Don't stay in the past, don't 'lose' the present, don't indulge in the fantasy of the future. I can probably understand the meaning of this sentence, but Buddhism is so profound that I feel that I understand it too superficially.

The master folded the silk paper and put it into an inconspicuous red cloth bag, and the bright yellow "color" rope was decorated with sandalwood beads.

He handed it to me and said I was destined to be a person.

I held it in the palm of my hand, but my heart was hesitating whether to open my mouth or not.

At this moment, another gentleman came from behind, asking with an expression if we had finished communicating with the master.

In a hurry, I blurted out, "Master, I want to ask for a peace charm for a friend." ”

Because I have selfish intentions, I am a little nervous at the moment, and my lips are pursed by myself.

"Girl, you can ask for peace charms in the side hall outside the door. The gentleman who was queuing behind me enthusiastically pointed it out to me.

I hurriedly said thank you, nodded embarrassedly to the master, and then left the main hall.

I asked for two peace charms and put them in my bag.

When I came out, I saw the old woman standing under the green pine, looking out at the green hills outside the mountain.

"Where are you going? If you're going to the city, I can give you a ride. I walked up to her and asked.

She turned around when she heard the sound, and when she saw me, she smiled between her eyebrows.

"I'm just waiting for you. She said calmly: "It's the first time I've come here, and I'm very unfamiliar with Jiangcheng, so it's great if you're not afraid of trouble and can show me the way." ”

"No hassle. It just so happened that I was getting ready to go down. Where are you going?" I asked.

When she told me where I was going, I was a little surprised and said, "Then we're exactly on the same road, I'm going to that hotel too." ”

"Really, that's great!" she clapped her hands happily.

I thought that she must be a very happy person, and a little happiness can be magnified to fill the whole heart.

After going down the hill, I stopped a taxi and we sat in the back seat and she asked my name.

"Cheng Jiaoyang. "I have nothing to hide.

She nodded, and read it silently, as if reading: "Is it the blazing sun?"

"Your Chinese language skills are really not ordinarily good. "I praise it from the bottom of my heart.

"When I was working at the International Red Cross Hospital, I met a lot of medical staff from China. She was quite proud: "Although I am Canadian, I have a quarter of Chinese ancestry!"

"I see. "No wonder she has black hair.

Wait, the same hotel for Canadian health workers? Could it be that she's also here for the forum that Luthor attended?

But I don't seem to be optimistic about her physical condition.

But so what? Luthor was such a stubborn man that even his wife could not persuade him.

I regained a lonely face.

Along the way, the two of us chatted, and I told her about the history, humanities and snack customs of Jiangcheng, and she expressed her interest.

When you walk to the door of the hotel, it also means that the time of separation has arrived.

"I'm Mary, it's a pleasure to meet you, you're a kind girl. She tilted her head and waved at me.

"Thank you...... Mary?" It dawned on me that everything seemed to be a coincidence.

"You are Mr. Luther's wife, Mary?" I tried to confirm.

She looked at me with eyes that lit up and nodded, as if to ask me if I knew her?

It occurred to me that she had asked in the temple, "Will my husband be happy in the future?"

At the time, I thought it was a strange question, but in retrospect, it was probably the thing she cared about the most.

I don't know why, I feel a little ashamed.

Indeed, for the sake of Chu Qingchuan, I tried to forcibly change other people's principles, which strictly speaking, has constituted a "riot" disturbance.

But human life is at stake, and I let it go. In normal times, I would never do this.

"Is there anything going on?" asked Mary with concern.

I shook my head hurriedly, saying that it was okay, and while reaching out and taking out a peace charm from my bag and handing it to her: "This, you can take it." ”

"For me?" she looked at me puzzled.

I swallowed my throat and decided to tell the truth. I told her that I was Anna's friend and that my husband was seriously ill. I also told her that I had come to Luthor and was sternly refused. I also told her that this was my last effort, and that if I didn't succeed, I had sincerely asked for this peace charm in the hope of bringing her good luck.

"I have asked for two peace charms, one for my husband and one for you, and I believe that this is not a gift with a utilitarian heart. I explained, and I was a little ashamed of my selfishness.

Mary smiled and took it, and said, "So Anna's friend is you." What a coincidence. ”

"yes. I chimed in a little awkwardly: "Then I'll go first??"

"He should have just finished his speech and was rushing back. I'm sorry, I can't help you. Mary had a slightly helpless expression, and did not forget to squeeze her shoulders after speaking.

"It's okay, thank you for all you have done for us. "I said it very sincerely.

However, as soon as I finished speaking, I heard a very unfriendly question from behind me: "Hey, what are you pestering my wife for?"

I looked back and saw Luther's angry face.

Before I could explain, he had walked quickly over to Mary and stood between the two of us.

"My dear, why didn't you come here without saying a word to me?, how can you fly casually in your physical condition?" said Luther, tenderly as if he had changed as he faced Mary.

Mary, however, was not happy, and she looked at me, annoyed but still gracefully said to Luther, "The sun is my friend, don't misunderstand her." ”

Unfortunately, this didn't make Luthor feel good about me, and I guess he was more convinced that I was approaching him through Mary.

Just then, an international call forced me to step aside and pick up the phone.

To my surprise, the school actually learned of the scandal of Xingmang, thought that I was suspected of falsification in the application materials, and required me to issue a certificate within three days to clear the suspicion, otherwise my admission qualification would be cancelled.

"Hope to hear good news from you. The clerk routinely hung up the phone.

When I turned around, there was still the shadow of Luthor and his party.

Standing in the empty plaza outside the hotel, the snow is falling one by one.

I thought that someone could finally warm up in the cold winter, but I didn't expect it to become the coldest winter.

Chu Qingchuan, I tried my best, will you blame me?

As I was leaving, I looked up at the floor where the Luther Suite was located and let out a long sigh.

Don't force anything. I remembered what a friend said to me during the three years of waiting.

When the dust settled and the tense nerves relaxed, I realized that my overdrawn body could no longer hold on.

When I returned to the hospital, I was greeted by Yang Buregret's twisted facial features.

Just as she was about to count me down, I fell into her arms.

……

When I woke up again, I saw the man sitting next to me, stunned for a moment, then laughing until tears burst into my eyes.

"Brother Guang!" I called out his name with a whimper.

Compared with when he was just released from prison, he is much stronger, and he is also very energetic, and he feels like he has been reborn.

The original Haoran righteousness was polished by the society, and it was hidden in calmness and restraint.

"Girl, that's what that kid did to you?" Brother Guang opened his legs, put his hands on his knees, and sat in a majestic and domineering posture, even with the words he said.

Yang Buregret standing behind Brother Guang at this moment, looking like a maid.

"I'm fine. Brother Guang, do you mean that you will return triumphantly if you are a bit famous?" I cheekily changed the subject.

"At this time, you still have the heart to joke!" Yang Guang had a straight face, he was really angry.

He killed me like this, I didn't dare to fight anymore, but I looked at Yang Buregret and asked her to save the scene.

Yang Buregret stubbornly broke the siege: "Jiaoyang, you really have to thank our brother this time, if he hadn't gotten the news, Xingmang really couldn't tell what would have happened!"

"What?" I was confused, and at the same time felt like things were coming to an eyebrow?
