Chapter 30: Separation

Previous Chapter

Luo Chuan stopped a few hundred meters away from the Horseshoe Temple and said, "I can only send you here." There is a letter here, it belongs to Sanniang, she helped the Horseshoe Temple in the past, maybe they will give her a face. After speaking, he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Zhu Qingheng.

Zhu Qingheng took the letter, and Ai Ai said: "What if...... What happens if I don't make the cut? Do you still want me? After she said this, her face turned red, and she hurriedly said, "I, I mean, do you still care about me?" If I lose the election and I have nowhere to go, will you still want me to follow you? ”

Luo Chuan smiled: "Aren't you confident that you will definitely be selected?" “

Zhu Qingheng stuck out his tongue and said with a smile: "In case they say that I have no relationship with the Buddha, I can't do anything." “

Luo Chuan said: "Three days." Enough is enough. ”

Zhu Qingheng nodded: "How can I find you." ”

Luo Chuan said: "I'm near here, I can see you as soon as you come out." ”

Zhu Qingheng smiled: "Then I'll go." ”

Luo Chuan nodded, hugged her arms and watched her walk up the stone steps in front of the Horseshoe Temple step by step. But seeing Zhu Qingheng's lotus clothes fluttering, lotus steps slightly moved to the two closed temple doors, raised her hand to knock on the door, before the hand touched, the two doors opened from the inside, she smiled back, beckoned to him, and then walked into the temple, and the two doors closed behind her.

Luo Chuan stopped and looked at it for a long time, and he suddenly felt a little sad. He has been alone since he was a child, mixed with wild beasts, and has long been accustomed to loneliness, and he has long stopped grieving for loneliness. But at this moment, he suddenly felt lonely again, and he couldn't help but think about what would happen if Zhu Qingheng was defeated. He smiled self-deprecatingly, then strode away.

The temple door opened, and a fragrance of flowers and plants came to the face. I saw that the courtyard in front of me was extremely spacious, the fairy flowers were fragrant, the different grass was fragrant, the beauty was surprising, and it was also surprisingly quiet, not like the ordinary temple incense flourished. Just because although there are Buddha statues in this horseshoe temple, it is a place of pure cultivation, and it never receives pilgrims to worship the Buddha.

Zhu Qingheng walked into the courtyard, and the two doors closed behind her, she was slightly startled in her heart, and then a clear voice sounded in the courtyard: "The donor is polite, I don't know why the donor came?" ”

Zhu Qingheng couldn't see anyone, but his palms were thin sweat because of nervousness, and he said to the vermilion main gate of the front hall: "Some time ago, the little girl's parents and family died violently, and the little girl escaped with her life, and she was lonely in the world, and she didn't know what to do. Later, he was instructed to come to your place, hoping to be pitied, and to be able to worship his subordinates. ”

The man said: "In that case, why don't the donors come in and talk about it in detail." ”

Zhu Qingheng walked in according to his words, and saw a Buddha statue in the middle of the main hall, and two and a half old futons were placed in front of the Buddha statue, and there were no other decorations. A white-clothed monk was sweeping the hall with a broom, and when he saw her come in, he smiled and said, "The donor is polite." ”

Zhu Qingheng hurriedly returned the salute, while looking at him quietly, seeing that he had a beautiful face, a handsome figure, and a gentle expression. Dressed in white, he is like the breeze on the river and the bright moon in the mountains. Zhu Qingheng also went to the famous temple in Gusu with Mrs. Zhu in the past, and saw many monks and Buddhas, but the only one who can compete with this monk is probably only Shui Yue who has seen it on Wushan.

The monk said: "The little monk is not clear, although he temporarily lives in the Horseshoe Temple, but he is not a pure sect person. The uncle in charge will come back tomorrow, and the donor may wish to stay in the temple for the night. ”

Zhu Qingheng said: "Yes." Thank you, Master, I don't know what the Master in charge name is? ”

Wu Qingdao: "Uncle Shi is a fixed generation, and the law name is fixed." After speaking, he smiled slightly, "Donor, please come with me." ”

He led Zhu Qingheng to the east wing, where some verdant pines and cypresses were planted in front of the wing, and the empty valley was full of waves. The two walked to the door of the third wing room, and Wu Qing said: "These two wings also live in the guests who come to learn the arts, there are rice and vegetable cooking utensils in the kitchen, if the donor is hungry, he can go to the kitchen to cook by himself." After a few more words, Wuqing took his leave.

Zhu Qingheng pushed open the door and saw a table, a bed, a cabinet and a shelf in the room. There was a clean quilt in the cabinet, Zhu Qingheng laid it out, and there seemed to be a smell of sunshine on it, she was tempted for a while, and she couldn't help but smell more. Suddenly, I heard laughter outside the door and said, "Sister Dong, don't you come out to see what the new sister looks like?" ”

Zhu Qingheng hurriedly got up and walked out, only to see a girl who looked like six or seven years old standing in the corridor and looking at her with a smile. This person was covered with a plain snow silk cloud coat on his upper body, a blue mist skirt, a round face was flushed, and his big eyes were dripping. It's like the Fuwa on the New Year's painting walking down. Seeing Zhu Qingheng come out, he smiled again: "Ouch, where did this fairy sister come from." Come over, not afraid to hold Zhu Qingheng's hand and smile, "Sister looks really bad, I thought that Sister Dong was the fairy of the Nine Heavens, no matter how unique it is, I didn't expect another fairy sister to come, like Sister Dong." ”

Zhu Qingheng didn't know if it was her nature to praise people like this as soon as they met or if she had other plans, her face remained unchanged, and she smiled: "My sister is also like a fairy child." Don't know what to call it? “

The girl said: "My surname is Du, and my sister calls me Shui Han." What about my sister? ”

Zhu Qingheng smiled: "My surname is Zhu, and my name is Qingheng." Before the words fell, the door in the middle also opened, and a girl about the same age as Zhu Qingheng walked out, only to see her acting like the wind blowing weak willows, smiling like the light of the wind and the moon, frowning like a flower shining on the water, the most romantic and graceful. There was still a slight flush on his cheeks, which showed that he had just woken up from sleep.

The two introduced each other, this young lady's surname is Dong, her name is Yixiu, and she asked Zhu Qingheng if she was from Gusu. Zhu Qingheng nodded, and Dong Yixiu said: "My mother is from Gusu, and I lived there for three or four years in the past. Your accent is very kind. Although Du Shuihan was young, he was very good at talking, and immediately asked the two to talk about the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and the three of them sat at the stone table under the pine tree and talked.

It turned out that this Du Shuihan was from Shanxi, and her parents were monks from a small sect, seeing that her qualifications were far better than the two of them, it would be a waste of this qualification to stay by her side, so she planned to take her to Tianyin Jingzong to learn art from the age of two. Dong Yixiu asked Dong's mother to come, and she had some troubles at home recently, so she came out with Dong's mother, but she couldn't choose it, so she had the right to play around and hide quietly. Zhu Qingheng finished talking about his situation in a few words, and the two of them were both emotional.

Du Shuihan said: "Now that I have gone up three times, how can there be eleven or twelve people." I heard that the Pure Sect only keeps two or three outer disciples every year, and I don't know how they will take the entrance examination for us. ”

Dong Yixiu pursed his lips and smiled: "It is fortunate to be selected, and it may not be unfortunate to be unsuccessful." Left and right are not something we can control, so why worry. ”
