What is life, O God?

Why do people with such genius die young?

What is Young? What is aging?

Why is fate so ruthless and bleak, letting love and people go away, making people lonely?

――――

"Hurry up, hurry up, Minglian~" Carrying a small cloth bag, standing in the middle of the trail in the mountains, the holy white lotus shook her little head and waved her little hand at the life-lotus not far behind her, "I finally persuaded the old man, we must cherish this opportunity to go out freely, so, hurry up!" We've got to get down the hill quickly, speed up, run! Hey! Taking small steps demonstratively, Bai Lian urged. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Whew...... Call...... Sister, sister ......" gasped, the short-haired Minglian was wearing a wide white coarse cloth robe, her delicate face was already flushed, the tip of her nose was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her little short legs were rubbing on the dirt road, unable to run, "I, I'm trying...... up"

Contrary to the extremely healthy white lotus, the body of the life lotus is very weak, and it is fine when it is usually sitting in meditation, but when it comes to running, it will be out of breath after not taking a few steps.

Although she also discovered this, Bai Lian was a child after all, so she didn't show more concern for her sister, but instead ran forward a few steps in a hurry, broke off a piece of grass from the side of the road, and put it in her mouth in a chic manner, before turning around and saying vaguely.

"Okay, okay! Then let's take it slowly, I'll go to the front to explore the way, what's interesting then, I'll come back and tell you about it~ Aha~ Butterfly! ”

The butterfly fluttered out of the bushes on the right, flapping its wings slowly and flickering to the left. The graceful wings flickered in the glorious morning day, and leisurely disappeared into the shadows of the mountain forest.

This surprising discovery immediately aroused the interest of the Holy White Lotus, and she smiled excitedly at the Destiny Lotus: "Destiny Lotus, Destiny Lotus, have you seen that butterfly?" Colorful, super beautiful! ”

"Where, sister?" Stopped, Minglian also looked around curiously, but she was too far away from the butterfly, and the sunlight among the trees was a natural camouflage. Her short brown hair, spread out as the wind stopped, fell silent, and nothing was found in her dazed pupils.

"Well, let's go for the life lotus! When I catch the butterfly, I'll bring her back to you!" Bai Lian was a little proud of the strange scene that belonged to her, she smiled and bared her teeth, and then, as soon as she turned her head, she happily left the mountain road and followed the butterfly into the mountain forest.

"Sister......" Minglian wanted to stop Bailian, but her voice sounded too late and too unresolute.

The figure of the white lotus has been lost on the mountain road, and only the wandering footsteps of the life lotus remain. The silence accompanied by the gloomy mountain forests on both sides created an eerie and oppressive atmosphere, after all, she was still a six-year-old child, and she was left alone in this muddy mountain road, and Minglian felt lonely and scared.

The tired body, the sore limbs, the cold wind blowing through the skin, and the strange squeaks that sounded from time to time in the mountains and forests, all of this was like a quagmire, slowing down the pace of the life lotus and making her hesitate.

Although the mountain road in front of her and the mountain road behind her looked no different, fear and fear stopped her path.

Her tiny body crouched down.

She crouched between the muddy mountain paths, looking at the path that meandered and disappeared into the trees, and muttered to herself unconsciously.

She doesn't recite anything else, she just mutters the Buddhist scriptures she recites every day.

The crisp and subtle sound echoed in the empty and silent world, like the cry of a man struggling to fall.

Although it's a bit like self-deception.

But that simple and pure voice really dispelled the cold, tiredness, and loneliness.

The Buddhist scriptures came out of the mouth of the lotus little by little, and her childish voice was a little slurred, but it had a charming and deep rhythm.

a.

Two.

Three.

Four ......

As if attracted by this moving music, countless butterflies landed around the lily, they stopped on the branches, on the flowers, on the green leaves, trembling their tentacles, flapping their wings slightly.

The arrival of the butterfly finally let Minglian get out of that somewhat trance state, she looked around and was surprised to find that the colorful butterflies quietly surrounded her, such a scene surprised her more, and made her more excited!

"Ah...... Butterfly! What a lot of butterflies! ”

The uncontrollable exclamation startled the butterflies in the sky, the colorful wings fluttered and swirled, and this beautiful scene was like life, blooming and falling.

For some reason, Minglian shed tears.

"Natal Lotus? Natal lotus? Are you crying? Not far away, Bai Lian's somewhat worried voice came.

"Hmm...... Well, sister! Wiping her tears with her sleeves, Minglian ran and fell into Bailian's arms with a crying voice, "I don't know, I am, whether I'm crying, I just feel very sad, very, very sad, sister, very sad......"

"Ah...... You're crying......" Bai Lian's face was full of remorse and pity, and she hugged her sister tightly, "Minglian, I was wrong, I shouldn't have left you here alone." ”

"Hmm!"

"I shouldn't have left my dear sister here just to find that ethereal butterfly."

"Hmm!"

"Alright, alright, stop crying! Hawkers, Minglian, forgive me, okay? I didn't keep my promise to catch the butterfly for you because it flew too fast and I lost it. ”

"Hmmm! But, but...... Sister, sister...... Butterflies, butterflies, I, I just saw, a lot, a lot of butterflies......"

"In that case, shouldn't you be happy? You're so weird! ”

"Well," slowly, in Bai Lian's warm arms, Ming Lian gradually stopped crying, and she asked softly, a little afraid, "Sister, am I really strange?" ”

"Sort of! A little bit! Okay, I'm not going to leave you alone this time, let's go down the mountain together, how about it? I promise you that I will always be with you and will not let you be alone for a while, okay? ”

"Yes, sister! I don't want to die, and I don't want to live alone. ”

"Hee-hee! Talking weirdly, Minglian is really stupid~"

"Really, sister?"

"Well, of course, this is also the cute place of the life lotus!"

Bai Lian took the little hand of the life lotus, and she grabbed it very tightly, because it was her sister.

The two young girls jumped up and down the hill without hurrying, saying boring but happy words along the way.

"By the way, Minglian, how about we come to the competition later?"

"Than what, sister?"

"Didn't the old man give us the task of turning our fortunes? How about we get ahead of whom? ”

"I'm a little scared?"

"Afraid of what?"

"I don't think people would give us food so casually."

"Why?"

"Because that's very unreasonable, just like sister, you won't want to give me your clothes for nothing!"

"I will!"

"Really?"

"Yes, so those people should be too, I heard the old man say, everyone in this world respects Buddhism, just to make a fate, it won't be so difficult, more importantly, I have a secret weapon?"

"What?"

"Hee-hee!" Patting the cloth bag behind him with his hand, Saint Bailian said triumphantly, "I stole the old man's bowl, it has mana!" ”
