When he lived in the valley, Xin Che also had two times when he went up the mountain, each time when the temple gate was not opened before sunrise, and he passed the temple twice without entering. He looked at the temple from a distance but did not approach, and it was only for an hour or two that he saw it, until a little novice who came to open the mountain gate, and then he disappeared again.

The thousand-year-old temple with red walls and blue tiles has gone through several cycles of prosperity to mediocrity. He was born, grew up there, participated in meditation, and became enlightened, and step by step he changed from a childish child who knew nothing to a famous and virtuous monk, and he should have loved that place. This kind of love was hidden deeply, he had never noticed it, not even in the three years that Nashi had gone to ask, he had never had such a strong feeling of love, until he returned today, and he had the illusion of being a world away.

It was the day when the temple was opened on the first day of the new year, because of the eventful time, the Yunju Temple did not have the mountain gate fully open, and the notice of canceling the worship was posted outside the door. The Lingyun stone steps were cramped and curved, and his heart was solemnly dressed, and he walked towards the main hall step by step through the half-open temple gate.

Seeing Xinche come back, although the little novices were surprised at how the master and uncle who had retreated and participated in meditation had returned from outside the mountain, no one dared to say more, they only bowed down and saluted, and automatically retreated to both sides of the road to make way for him.

Xin Che walked straight to the front of the main hall, did not enter the hall, and slowly knelt on the stone steps in front of the main hall with a light Buddha call. He bowed deeply, prostrated three times towards the golden statue of Shakyamuni in the hall, and did not say anything more, but each time he slammed heavily on the ground of the bluestone slab. The Buddha statue is solemn, and the kind eyebrows and kind eyes seem to be looking down on the heart condescendingly.

The weather was not hot, and there was a cool breeze. The leaves of the two ancient ginkgo trees in front of the hall rattled in the wind. Xin Che lay in front of the temple for a long time, and when he looked up again, he suddenly had the urge to cry.

The little monk was originally chanting in the side hall, and he was excited when he heard the news that Xin Che had returned to the temple, and he didn't care about tidying up a little and rushed to the front of the hall. On the day he went to Shangyuan Mansion to attend the wedding ceremony, he was the only one who went with Xinche, the scene of the wedding ceremony was chaotic, he was still deeply sorry for the deceived Miss Yin one moment ago, but he couldn't see Xinche when he turned back the next moment. His skills were not good, and he was completely lost after chasing and running for less than a moment, only to see Xinche from a distance as if he was running out of the city. Despite this, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on climbing the mountain road all night, but he did not expect it. By the time he found the cliff, he had already gone to the cliff. Except for a broken hemp rope and a few scattered beads, all of them were gone.

The circle and the heart have a deep relationship, and they are timid, and they are so frightened that they cry when they see such a miserable scene. He sat on the top of the cliff and called. One sitting is a day. During this period, he also tried to find someone to help save people. However, everyone persuaded him that the East Emperor Cliff was a cliff mouth that would eat people. The man who fell from there never made it out alive. Liyuan was stunned by this series of accidents, but after crying bitterly on the top of the cliff, there was nothing to be done, so he had to make a simple worship and hurried back to the temple to report to the old abbot.

There has been no news for a few months, and Lian Yuan has already decided in his heart that Xinche is more than lucky, and now he can see him return safe and sound, and the complicated excitement in his heart is naturally overflowing. After helping Xinche to get up and sit down, the joy could no longer be controlled, he looked Xinche up and down, left and right, and cried and laughed at the same time.

"Uncle Shi, are you really okay and not injured? Yuan is really going to die! At that time, the situation was chaotic, and you were lost in the blink of an eye, and by the time I looked for it again, it was too late, and I thought it was ......."

The little monk's words were choked up and incomplete, but Xin Che patted him on the shoulder and whispered relief.

"It's okay, it's a few injuries, and I've fully recovered in the past few months and haven't left any incurable hidden diseases, so I don't have to worry."

Even so, Yuan still respectfully knelt in front of Xin Che to confess his mistakes, Xin Che didn't care much, but after a few words, he got up and spoke. More worried about his body than his own body, whether the old abbot is okay now. After listening to what Yuan said, even when everyone thought that he had died in the mountains, the old abbot still firmly believed that he was still in the world, and only declared that he was in retreat. The hometown is even more timid, and now although he is worried about the old abbot, he does not dare to meet him directly for a while, so he only retreats from others and leaves a circle to ask questions.

"I was in a hurry to return to the temple this time, but I also heard that the abbot's senior brother was in poor health, I don't know how his old man's condition is at this time?"

"Uncle Shizu, Shizu, his old man's condition is indeed a lot more serious. At first, it was not good to hear the news that you were suspected of being in distress, but recently I suffered from some summer heat, and it happened to be the matter of Uncle Kong, so I was in a hurry, and I fell completely ill with the combination of new and old diseases. The temple has invited several doctors to come and see, and for the past two or three days, he has been in bed in the wing room to recuperate, and he has been waiting for visits from time to time, but he ??????"

"Just what?"

"It's just that the medicine stone has little effect, and the old man is very old, and now he has been hit several times and the pain is afraid that it will be difficult to recover in a short time."

It was difficult for the circle to speak, and the heart was also shocked to hear. Ever since he was a young man, the abbot had always had a gray beard and a serious face, and even though he didn't appear often and was very strict with himself in his schoolwork, he always had the impression that he was an old man full of spirit and wisdom. I don't want to say goodbye for a few days, but when I want to see you again, things have changed.

According to the Yuan, the ancestor has been sick for many days, and most of the reason is that the heart disease is difficult to heal. Now that you are back, Uncle Ancestor, maybe it will be a good dose of heart medicine. I'll order someone to prepare a fragrant soup for a bath quickly, and you can go and visit after you have packed up, maybe it will be more effective than any panacea. ”

Xin Che nodded in agreement when he heard this, and then instructed to deal with a few daily tasks before getting up to leave. Just as he was about to go out, he heard a call from the circle behind him, and Xin Che looked back at him, and saw that he seemed to be hesitant to speak and stop.

"Yuan, there is something else to say bluntly, don't hide your hesitation."

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that I saw Miss Yin's miserable situation on the day you went down the mountain, I don't know if she is okay now, has she returned home smoothly? ”

Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, and endured the nonsense of the second half of the sentence "Do you need us to visit" under the gaze of Xinzhi. At the last wedding ceremony, Yin Su asked if something happened, and he couldn't meet Nanzhu, and now he is somewhat worried about her and Yin's recent situation.

He asked tactfully, but his heart seemed to see through his mind at a glance, and he replied lightly.

"Master Yin was rescued at the same time as me, and now his body is no longer in serious trouble. As for other things, it is her private family matter, and you and I don't need to say much. ”

Xinche's sleeves moved slightly, and the figure had already walked outside the hall, but he turned back and left a word.

"The young man's heart still needs to be recited more and reasoned, and he must not forget the empty lesson." (To be continued......)
