Chapter Seventy-Three: Warmth
Ryufukuji Temple. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info saw all the monks kneeling at the door of the punishment hall, and the leader of them was the dragon host.
"Go out, on the day of the death of the second ancestor, the second ancestor is very sad and has already retreated in advance." An older monk came out through the side door.
Host Long was a little frustrated when he heard this, and then said sincerely: "It was I who made a mistake in the great matter of the ancestor, and I hope that the senior uncle will tell the second ancestor that the disciple knows his mistake and is willing to be punished with all punishments." ”
"Amitabha. If the monks don't speak, it is a sin for you to lead the disciples to deceive the little benefactor. The second uncle has an order, you can kneel at the door of the punishment hall today and think about it. Seeing that the monk's face was full of indifference, after saying this, he retreated and closed the side door of the punishment hall.
"Host, you are obviously thinking about the overall situation, why do the second master ancestors blame us. Yesterday, when the ancestor left, he asked you to watch it, and said that if necessary, he could communicate to the second ancestor. A middle-aged monk said unconvinced.
The dragon presided over the signal to be quiet, and only after a long time did he speak: "The second master is a high monk, how can we guess his thoughts, no matter what, this time our monks are the word, deceiving the little benefactor is true, or admit the punishment." ”
When the other monks heard this, they had no choice but to bow their heads and kneel honestly at the door and on the steps of the punishment hall.
In the middle of the punishment hall, Gu Lao crossed his legs, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and a lot of blood beads appeared from the corners of his mouth.
Next to him sat an old monk with white eyebrows and a thick beard, who was looking at Gu Lao with a worried face at the moment, and when he heard the footsteps outside, he turned his face, "What's wrong?" ”
I saw the older monk on the other side nodding. "Second Master Ancestor, the Dragon Lord's side is fine, they are all kneeling outside the door." When the words fell, his eyes fell on Gu Lao, and then he closed the door of the inner room and guarded outside.
After a while, the old monk stared at Gu Lao, and when he saw the other party's eyes moving slightly, he stood up excitedly, "Master." Are you awake? ”
Gu Lao felt a faint pain in his chest. After holding it down with his hand, he felt better, and then waved his hand again, "Now Zhicheng, you are the master here, and I have passed away." ”
Monk Zhicheng calmed down the emotions just now. sat down on a futon beside Gu Lao. "Alas. Why should Senior Brother bother to see you, and there is no way to declare to you that you are dead. Recently, those people in the dark city have been looking for you everywhere, and I am also thinking about my senior brother's safety. ”
Gu Lao heard this. The color of the eyes is obscure. Last time I was invited by Old Man Sun in the Imperial Capital City, regardless of the danger of revealing my identity, I personally presided over a memorial service for Sun Yuanping, just to try how deep the water in the Imperial Capital City is now. I thought I would meet Hua Yunzhao, but I didn't expect that the old guy would receive the news in advance and send his younger brother Hua Yunxiao over.
What surprised him even more was that Huo Hongfeng's skills had obviously increased over the years, although he hadn't fought with him, but when he stood by his side, he was simply ghostly when he cast the "Blood Shadow Corpse Needle", and he didn't even notice how he invaded the bloodline.
Gu Lao's expression was solemn, and his brows were tightly locked. Monk Zhicheng next to him asked with concern: "Senior brother, but something tricky has happened, it is related to the Imperial Capital City?" ”
"Well, this matter has nothing to do with you, I have my own measure." Gu Lao raised his head and gently pulled the corners of his mouth, "Let me ask you, have there been strange people living on this mountain in recent years?" ”
"There are demons and ghosts, but they don't stay long. As for the strange people, I don't know if the one in the Yellow Dragon Cave counts? ”
Gu Lao raised his eyebrows and motioned for the other party to continue, "The Yellow Dragon Cave was occupied by a python earlier, but later I heard that it was captured alive, and then it was empty for a long time. However, ten years ago, when I went to a nearby mountain villa to do business, I felt a strong aura when I passed there, and strangely, I searched the entire Huanglong Cave, but found nothing. However, over the years, the Camellia oleifera trees in the vicinity have grown more and more luxuriant, so I suspect that there may be a high-ranking person living there. ”
"That must be mighty. By the way, this time I was in the imperial capital city, I met the enemy, and I was injured by his secret weapon, and I need to retreat for a long time, and the affairs of the temple will be handed over to you, junior brother. Gu Lao's eyes were full of essence, and after he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and was silent.
Monk Zhicheng responded, didn't say anything more, and directly pushed open the door and went to the compartment.
As soon as the door was closed, Gu Lao's ears moved, and he saw Liu Shuduo coming in from outside the window.
Lifting the skin of Yi Rong, Liu Shuduo was full of wrinkles, and said puzzledly: "Senior brother, why do you want to tamper with Wu Fen's memory without authorization, and ask the monks here to make it up?" ”
"Hmph, she hasn't entered my Luoxia Gate yet, and you have protected it? . How did I explain to you yesterday that I wanted her to wake up tonight, but you didn't listen to me, and secretly reduced the dosage so that she woke up early in the morning. Gu Lao looked at his junior sister with a little reproach, but he didn't expect that over the years, his junior sister had become a little ruthless in addition to her methods, but her temperament had not changed at all.
Liu Shuduo was dumbfounded, can she say that she feels sorry for her apprentice, if she says such a thing, the senior brother will probably be even more unhappy.
Gu Lao sighed: "People can't withstand their lives after all. Even if I cultivate Buddhism and calculate the heavenly opportunities, I will still be an ordinary man in the end. ”
"But we're lucky to live longer than the average person."
When Gu Lao heard this, he saw his senior sister's satisfied expression, and persuaded Wei: "Your disciple has already seen the Buddha water lily --- my temple's heavy treasure, so she can find out that I am trying to tamper with her memory." "As for that powerful thing, Gu Lao is secretive.
"Since she is destined, it is better to fulfill her." Liu Shuduo was surprised. Legend has it that only people who have clear and clear eyes can see the Buddha's water lilies.
"You don't understand. Senior sister, you should teach her the piano with your heart. Gu Lao lowered his eyes, as if he was asleep, and it took a long time to say such a sentence.
Liu Shuduo was puzzled, but he understood that the things decided by the senior brother could not be changed, so he had to respond first.
Sulphur-zinc ore living area. Wu Fen and Cheng Liu had just finished lunch when it rained outside.
"Grandma, I'll go and bring food to my mother." Wu Fen fed her brother a small bowl of rice cereal and carried him around the outhouse.
Cheng Liu looked at the time, "No, it's almost half past one now." She's almost out of work. She brought two eggs in the morning, just enough to satisfy her hunger at noon. ”
Wu Fen didn't speak again, put his younger brother on the bed, took out a small notebook from the cabinet, and lay on the bed thinking about the answers to his grandfather's boxes.
52 wooden boxes, sent away in two times, according to my grandfather's preferences and furniture orientation, the answer should be the 31st.
Once you have the initial answers, you can verify them repeatedly and push them back from the front. Push back to front. In the end, it took an afternoon for Wu Fen to determine the final answer.
At this time, the lights were already on in the room, and I could faintly hear my mother's deep voice. and grandma's blame.
Sit up. I saw my brother next to him asleep. Stretched out his hand to cover the small quilt on him, and then straightened his clothes, and then got out of bed and went into the inner room.
Cheng Xiaolan was at a loss. As soon as I looked up, I saw my daughter walking in, "Get up, let's eat." I came home from work and saw that you put the tent down, and it didn't bother you. ”
Wu Fen felt that the air pressure in the house was a little low, and her grandmother looked at her mother with a slanted eye, so she asked with some puzzlement, "What's wrong?" ”
"Yang Songping is too bullying, so he won't let your mother go to Sun Ridge to pick a pool. In this way, the family's income will be reduced by half in the future, not to mention your tuition money, even living expenses will not be affordable. Cheng Liu hated his daughter and wouldn't argue, and let the family next door bully.
It turned out to be for this matter, Wu Fen raised her eyebrows slightly, and when she saw her mother's red eyes, she obviously cried, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed: "Mom, are you sad about this matter?" What's the matter, he is the mine manager, and he has the authority to remove your part-time job in Sun Ridge at any time. Anyway, I just received a bonus of 5,000 yuan from the county party committee and the school, and the tuition and living expenses have already been paid. ”
When the two of them heard Wu Fen say so easily, they glanced at each other, Cheng Liu clapped his palms, and his face bloomed with joy: "It's still Fen'er who is more powerful and can earn so many bonuses." You did well in the exam this time, I guess if you hadn't volunteered to fill in the low, maybe the county party committee and the school would have given you more bonuses. Well, in addition to your mother's debts, at least the tuition money has been settled. ”
Wu Fen saw that her grandmother was so happy, and hurriedly took the bowl she handed over, "So mom doesn't have to work so hard, now that your daughter has grown up, you don't have to worry so much about it at all." Don't cry at every turn in the future, your eyes are not good, and you have a dizziness problem, it is more important to maintain a good attitude. ”
"But what about your Uncle Liao's debts? He has a receipt for your father's expenses when he went on a business trip with him. Cheng Xiaolan saw that her daughter had earned so many bonuses, and the stone hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground, so she opened her mouth to mention Dr. Liao's debt.
Wu Fen ate the fried tofu in the bowl, yellow on the outside and soft on the inside, smooth and delicious, and her small mouth was high. Hearing my mother mention this question, she looked at her, "You took my 5,000 yuan to pay off the debt?" ”
"How can that money be enough, your sister-in-law asked someone to bring a letter yesterday morning, saying that she has a terminal illness and needs money urgently, and asks me to send her some money. So I saw that you had an envelope in your bag, and I took it, and prepared to bring it to your sister-in-law. Cheng Xiaolan sighed, thinking that Wu Hua had an incurable disease, it was quite pitiful. As a sister-in-law, you must always do your part.
What kind of tricks is my sister-in-law doing? Wu Fen finished the rice in the bowl in a few clicks, and burped again, "My sister-in-law is not necessarily sick, and even if she is sick, it is not her turn to borrow money from our family." You didn't give the money to Peng Lai, did you? ”
Cheng Xiaolan shook her head, "Peng Lai has had a lot of things in the workshop recently, and he wants to get a full attendance award, so he won't go back to his hometown for the time being." ”
That's good, Wu Fen is really worried that her mother gave the money to Peng Lai, that girl is a human being, and the money is in her pocket, but don't think about taking it out. "Then give me the money. Don't touch my stuff in the future. ”
Cheng's mother handed over the money, with some hesitation on her face, "Mom won't be in the future." What about Dr. Liao? ”
It's Dr. Liao again! Wu Fen stood up, listening to the sound of the drizzle outside on the green tiles, her mood was so heavy, and she always felt that this person who suddenly appeared next to her father was full of a sense of disobedience. By the way, Mom once mentioned that he knew his father's movements very well, so could he be the mysterious person who took the 100,000 yuan fraudulently?
"You don't have to worry about it, I'll take over Dad's debt problem in the future. Mom, you've been too tired all these years, so take a good rest and treat it as a long vacation for you. ”
Cheng Liu began to have some headaches and embarrassments when he heard these old things at home, and now he heard his granddaughter say this, so he took the initiative to persuade his daughter: "Since Fen'er has spoken, we don't have to worry about those big things, anyway, you can't figure out Wu Changyi's social relationships." ”
Cheng Xiaolan thinks it's right, she doesn't know anything about her husband's connections and work relationships, if it weren't for so many things that happened after his death, maybe she would still be kept in the dark.
Listening to the sound of rain outside, the lights in the hut were dim, but it was warm, and the faces of the three people were full of smiles, this was the first time since my father's death that the atmosphere at home was so relaxed.
The office of the president of Tianchen Group, the capital city of the Chinese Emperor.
Duan Chuyang's handsome face was squeezed on the smooth ground by a pair of No. 47 men's leather shoes, and his back was stepped on fiercely, and his whole body couldn't move for a moment. "Yuyang, you have to believe me, it's really He Ling's girl who took the initiative to seduce me."
Tang Yuyang's eyes were red, without his previous politeness, this man with a height of 1.87 meters was full of decadence at the moment. Ever since he learned the truth of the matter, he had been drinking heavily every day, and he used to think that God-blessed love was a joke in the end. The woman he held in the palm of his hand became a slut in the eyes of others, whose fault is this?
"Shut up!" Tang Yuyang roared loudly with the green tendons on the back of his hand.
Mo Chenxu, who was sitting in the president's seat, plucked his ears, "Duan Chuyang, you'd better explain it honestly and clearly, don't think that Yuyang doesn't have a backstage, so you can pry his corner casually." ”
Duan Shaotian kicked Duan Chuyang heavily: "Duan Chuyang! If it weren't for the fact that you are a side branch of the Duan family, I would have cooked you a long time ago. A woman who dares to move Yuyang, you are simply looking for death. If you have the ability, don't use your own money to buy others in the name of the Duan family, this is the credit card bill you spent on He Ling's woman, a total of more than 11 million yuan. ”
Duan Chuyang's eyes were red on the ground, and when he heard that he had to pay for himself, he hurriedly lowered his body and begged for mercy: "Yuyang, you dissipate your anger." I've broken up with Heling, she's pregnant with your baby, and I haven't touched her much at all. Also, cousin, be kind, where can I get so much money, I'm really forced, just forgive me this time. ”
Duan Shaotian snorted, pulled Duan Chuyang on the ground, and a few black-clothed people stood out next to him, only to see Mo Chenxu's eyes slightly cold, and his sword eyebrows raised, "You guys serve him well, just leave him in a breath, and then throw him to Chu Ge after that." ”
The man in black was agile, and quickly surrounded Duan Chuyang, pulling him outside, and then there were angry scolding and screams.
Duan Shaotian furrowed his brows and patted Tang Yuyang's shoulder, "I advised you at the beginning, be careful to be a brother to that person, and don't be taken advantage of." And He Ling, you were attracted by her talent, but you haven't checked her family background and past love history? ”
The corners of Tang Yuyang's lips were dry, his eyes were bloodshot, and he sat on the ground with his head in his hands, "I only know that she was born in a single-parent family and has a widowed mother and younger sister." She loves to compose, and because she couldn't afford to pay the tuition for art school, she found a handyman there, and relied on stealing art and self-study to get her later grades. ”
Mo Chenxu's slender and clean fingers curled slightly, and his eyebrows locked lightly. Wu Fen is also from this kind of family, but he thinks she is a pure, kind, and strong-willed good woman. I hope she can be different, not admiring vanity and fame, and not indulging in prosperity and selfish desires.
"As for love, I believe in her purity, her first time to me, there should be no such thing as your so-called past tense love." Tang Yuyang said this, he couldn't believe it, if it was before, he would have said "yes" categorically, but now that he has been betrayed, he has some doubts about whether he was too hasty at the beginning, and he easily gave full of true love.
