"Then are they together?" An Xiaomo had never seen so many sentimental red beans.

"Not really. My sister is doing well and better in the next life. Hongdou turned her face to look at An Xiaomo, she didn't tell this story for anything, it was just a longing, a longing for feelings.

"Really? Maybe it's better. "That's right, it's not that two people who love each other will definitely be together, just like An Xiaomo and Liu Chengcheng, although An Xiaomo is not sure that Liu Chengcheng will definitely like him.

"Do you think, should they be together?" Hongdou tilted his head sideways and greeted An Xiaomo, with a serious expression, like the invigilator during the exam.

"No, I don't think so. "All happy endings only exist in fairy tales, and there are very few such happy endings in real life.

We can't afford to ask for anything.

The story will end, but the story will never be gone. Stories are all over the world, including you and your hometown. Everyone has a story.

When An Xiaomo and Hongdou arrived at the temple at the top of the mountain, it was already past noon, and the sun was skewed, but it was still shining warmly.

Hongdou walked on the stone path of the temple, different from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is very quiet, calm, and clean and comfortable.

When An Xiaomo and Hongdou came, chanting was going on in the temple, and the people of the whole temple gathered in the courtyard, not crowded at all, but still very spacious, not that the courtyard was particularly large, but there were not many monks in this temple.

While soaking up the splendor of the sun, they enjoyed the chanting without distractions.

Hongdou and An Xiaomo chanted the scriptures with the host of the temple together, sat with everyone upright, took the scriptures handed over and read softly with the host, as if it was a conversation with the heart and a conversation with themselves.

The chanting continues until the sun goes down. Hongdou followed the rhythm of the host and kept chanting happily, and An Xiaomo was also engrossed in this matter.

The kitchen had already wafted out the smell of rice, and after the chanting was over, Hongdou and An Xiaomo were entertained by the abbot and entered the kitchen together.

"No one has come to this temple for a long time, the two donors have traveled all the way to come here, it must be very hard, a little fasting, please use the two donors slowly. The abbot had a string of Buddhist beads hanging from his hands, put his hands together on his chest, and began to stretch out his hands again in a gesture of please.

"Thank you Abbot," Hongdou folded his hands and bowed slightly, without too many flowery words, the simplest words, expressing Hongdou's respect for the abbot.

An Xiaomo had never seen such a scene before, and he learned from the appearance of red beans, and also said to the abbot, "Thank you." ”

"Please take your time. The abbot nodded, and with that, he walked to the next table.

An Xiaomo and Hongdou sat down and began to enjoy the food, although the temple eats vegetarian food, there is not too much matching of ingredients, but even this vegetarian vegetarian meal has a unique flavor.

"Why doesn't the abbot eat with us?" An Xiaomo looked around, the monks were just eating quietly, without any sound. And it seems that the number of people at each table is fixed, and the table of An Xiaomo and Hongdou is also temporarily added.

"Shh~ You can't talk when eating. Hongdou made a forbidden gesture to An Xiaomo and ate quietly.

After a while, the monks started to get up and wash the dishes and chopsticks, "Wow, they're done eating so quickly, isn't that too fast?" An Xiaomo saw that there was still a lot of rice left in his bowl, so An Xiaomo also sped up the speed of eating.

After eating, Hongdou and An Xiaomo came to the sink where the dishes were washed and began to wash the dishes.

"This is the first time I've done my own dishwashing. "An Xiaomo is used to being the eldest young master, the little prince, and it is indeed the first time that he has done something he has never thought of so himself.

"No, I heard that the son-in-law of the group will also go to their restaurant to wash dishes, which is called experiencing life. Red Bean said as he washed.

"Why don't they get together for dinner?" An Xiaomo hadn't forgotten the question just now, "I can understand that you can't talk when you eat, after all, you need some etiquette to restrain you." ”

"Well, yes, just like you can't talk when eating, sitting separately is also a kind of etiquette and a constraint. Hongdou looked at An Xiaomo with a puzzled look on his face, and smiled happily, it turned out that not all problems in this world An Xiaomo understood, and he also had times when he didn't understand.

The two put away the dishes and chopsticks, walked towards the door, and a little monk came to them, and said to the red bean, "The two donors, it is getting late today, and the guest rooms have been prepared for the two donors, please come with me." ”

"Okay, thanks. An Xiaomo originally wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the little monk and didn't speak again. Hongdou and An Xiaomo quietly followed behind the little monk and walked to the guest room.

The guest room is in a side room at the back of the courtyard, facing north and south, in a standard classical Chinese building, and there is a long corridor outside. When you open the window, you can see a bamboo forest not far away, and there is a pavilion in the bamboo forest.

"Please rest early," the little monk took Hongdou and An Xiaomo to the place, and then turned around and left.

"Gongzi An, please rest early. Hongdou learned from the appearance of an ancient woman, leaned over slightly, and said to An Xiaomo.

"Are you going to rest now?" An Xiaomo experienced this day, although she was very tired from trekking through mountains and rivers, she was not sleepy at all, but more energetic.

"Let's wash up first, and then you can come out and lie there and look at the stars. Red Bean pointed to a stone in this small courtyard, and Red Bean felt the same way, not sleepy at all.

"Well, okay," An Xiaomo also thought this suggestion was good, he was tired for a day, so he should wash and be comfortable.

Everything here is still primitive, the water here is put in tanks, using mountain spring water instead of tap water, and the washing thing here is called a basin, which is made of wood, not the integrated washbasin at home.

"How did you find this temple?" An Xiaomo and Hongdou were lying side by side on the stone, staring intently at the stars in the sky.

"It was a serendipitous accident that I discovered this small temple. "Red Bean is glad that she was able to find such a temple.

"Actually, I like it here, and I've always wondered if this will be the way my life will be in the future. Hongdou has also fantasized many times that he will live in the mountains and forests like the ancient hermits.

"I didn't expect you to have such an idea, it turns out that you are such a red bean. An Xiaomo smiled and looked at the red beans slightly.

"Yes, what about you, do you have any alternative ideas?" Hongdou propped up his arms, looked at An Xiaomo and asked him.

"I never thought about what kind of home or environment I would live in one day. An Xiaomo's eyes flashed, and he said leisurely, "But I know what I want now." ”

"What is it?" Hongdou asked with joy in his heart, throbbing and urgently.

"I don't know," An Xiaomo gave such an answer, which was really sad.

"Then you still say you came up with it? Hongdou didn't hear a satisfactory answer, and said unhappily.

"It's just a feeling, it's not a specific situation. An Xiaomo explained, it is indeed a feeling, there is no physical echo, just a feeling, and there is not even a picture in his mind.

"Well, forgive me. Red Bean put her arms under her head and lay down again, looking at the stars in the sky. She used to have such a feeling, a clear and vague feeling.

"It's really beautiful, thank you. An Xiaomo said softly with a deep voice, and the sound waves floated in the air, leisurely penetrating into the ears of red beans.

It's so nice, "Did you ever say your voice is magnetic? I like your voice so much." Azuki said his thoughts.

An Xiaomo's mellow male voice is originally good, and as he grows older, An Xiaomo has also accumulated a certain feeling, which is the embodiment of life and his own growth, and An Xiaomo's voice is getting better and better.

"Hmph~" A thick nasal voice, An Xiaomo smiled, the first time he heard someone comment on his voice.

"This is the first time you've laughed so happily since you returned home. Hongdou looked at An Xiaomo's smile, not a little cold, from the heart, spreading from the bottom of his heart and rippling into his eyes, a deep smile.

"Really?" An Xiaomo returned to his usual expression, as if it seemed to be the case, An Xiaomo deliberately showed such a look when facing Hongdou at the beginning, in order to distance himself.

But slowly, An Xiaomo got used to it, and kept wearing his cold expression as a mask. He laughed less and less.

"I know, I know," Hongdou just felt an inexplicable sadness, obviously the person he liked was around, obviously they were talking together, but Hongdou felt as if there was a gap in his heart, and the cold wind blew in, and then penetrated.

"Actually, I know a lot of things, I'm no longer a child, An Xiaomo, I've grown up, I can understand, I can understand. Hongdou continued, she just wanted to prove that she was no longer a child, she just wanted An Xiaomo to understand that she really loved him, "An Xiaomo, don't push me away." ”

"You're tired, rest early. An Xiaomo got up and touched Hongdou's head, then turned around and went back to his room.

Hongdou looked at An Xiaomo's departing back, tears wet her eyes, "In my life, the most tears shed are probably all because of you, An Xiaomo." ”

Red beans also went back to the room, the mountain is cold in autumn, and tomorrow I have to worship the Buddha and ask for a sign, so I can't get sick at this time.

"Roo~Ro~Roo~" The rooster's crowing woke up the sleeping red bean, and after the red bean was dressed, he walked out of the door, stretched his waist, and took a deep breath of the air in the deep mountains and old forests, so pleasant.

The sun had come out, and the light was moving slowly, shining on the big stone, and An Xiaomo was sitting there at the moment, looking at the beautiful scenery in the distance.
