Chapter 48: Soberness
Chapter Forty-Eight: Soberness
In the middle of the mountains surrounded by green shadows, there is a Tibetan temple with a civil structure, and in the center of the temple sits a towering large scripture hall, which is very dim from the outside, adding a bit of mystery to it.
Inside the hall, there are many large pillars of red lacquered wood, each wrapped in a colorful blanket, interspersed with embroidered streamers, and a variety of cut-and-paste Buddhist stories on them. The roof is carved with all kinds of mural cornices, exquisite and unique pagodas, ingenious ritual vessels, golden deer, etc., decorating the large scripture hall with a magnificent and religious atmosphere.
The curling cigarette smoke and lingering Sanskrit sound exude the unique and solemn aura of Buddhism, and a huge golden reclining Buddha looks down on the vast number of beings in this world with its eyes half-open.
On the earthy yellow futon in front of the Buddha, a woman with long hair scattered behind her like a waterfall kneeling, dressed in a white cigarette cage and a hundred water skirts, folded her hands, and closed her eyes, as if praying to the Buddha devoutly.
Behind the woman knelt a man and a woman, one of whom had his head on the ground like pounding garlic, and a bruise had been knocked out on the top of his head, while the woman was holding the dress on her knees tightly with both hands, her head lowered, and her body was like chaff.
"Lord Dharma Protector, we are greedy..... It's because we were blinded by lard, greedy for Zeng Ziren's silver taels, and ruined the big things in the church, please, please give me another chance, I... I'm going to make up for it. ”
After learning about the incident at the east window of Yixian Mansion last night, he hurriedly escaped from Zeng's Mansion with his soft packing, preparing to find a place where no one knew him and died in the world. Who knew that he didn't even run out of Chengdu, but he was captured by the Dharma Protector of the Wugu Sect, and he was arrested together, as well as Ling'er who was kneeling beside him.
The woman kneeling in front of the Buddha and praying did not open her eyes, the corners of her mouth were lightly smeared with a smile, and she replied slowly and logically in a voice like a silver bell: "Young Master Zeng is really willing to spend money, and gave you millions of taels of silver, no wonder you are tempted." ”
"No, Lord Dharma Protector, I haven't taken a penny of silver, I just want to give my mother to eat, yes.... It was Wang Xiang who asked me to help him do things, and promised to give me the silver, but I didn't take a penny, Lord Dharma Protector. Ling'er, who was kneeling on the side, listened to the woman's cold tone and hurriedly excused.
The woman slowly opened her eyes and said with a chuckle, "Then it seems that this Dharma Protector has to thank you." ”
"No, Lord Dharma Protector, listen to my explanation....." The king's steward, who was kneeling on the ground, was about to interject to defend something, when he saw the woman with her back to them slowly raise her right hand, and he swallowed the rest of the words back into his stomach with interest.
The woman they called the Dharma Protector turned her back to the two of them and said coldly: "You two ignore the canons of this sect, collude with people outside the sect to betray this sect for personal gain, and almost ruin the results of our many years of operation in the Shu Palace, which is really hateful!" Today, I will light the two of you with sky lanterns to protect the teachings. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, two masked warriors in armor walked in from outside the prayer hall and dragged out the two people who were shouting hysterically, and the originally noisy prayer hall instantly fell silent.
"Amitabha~"
The woman folded her hands above her head, and finally bowed down and said Sanskrit to the reclining Buddha, then turned her face to look outside the scripture hall.
Looking at the snow-like skin on his face that could be blown and broken, and the lower eyelid of his left eye lightly lit with a beautiful mole, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt, and then he suddenly remembered that the familiar face of this Dharma Protector was actually the one who fell off the cliff of Jiulong Mountain, and his life and death were uncertain........
Ning'er!
-----------------------------
early morning
Qianyun Pavilion
An Yi quietly walked out of the Qianyun Pavilion and gently closed the pavilion door. The two of them have been tumbling through the clouds and rain all night, and now Gao Yingshu is afraid that he doesn't even have the strength to move his fingers.
Let her rest inside. Thinking like this, An Yi lay on the fence of the main building outside the Qianyun Pavilion. I have to say that the location of this Qianyun Tower is indeed unique, standing on the main building, you can have a panoramic view of everything in the early morning in Chengdu, although the war in the northwest is already known to passers-by, but it seems that it does not affect the peace years to bring the people the leisure in their bones. Although the decay and comfort of the Great Xia Dynasty have been deeply understood, the peace in the hearts of the people today is not a kind of courage brought to the world by this once powerful dynasty.
"The spring night is short, but the son got up early."
Listening to this charming voice in his bones, An Yi knew that it was Liu Siyi.
He looked back at Liu Siyi, who was dressed in a soft light veil, and responded, "It's not too late for Miss Liu to get up." ”
Liu Siyi glanced at Jiangyun Pavilion with his eyes and asked An Yi, "Is Miss Gao better?" ”
An Yi arched his hand at her and said, "Thanks to Miss Liu and Miss Ziyun for their medicine, Ying Shu is no longer a big problem." ”
"It seems that the effect of Childe's medicine is not bad." Liu Siyi covered her lips and chuckled.
If An Yi evaluates a girl like Liu Siyi, it is a thorny rose, and every word she says to you seems to be seducing you, but if you really grasp it, you will be covered in blood. But then again, on the contrary, such a seemingly bewitching, but fiery girl is often a person who is bigger than the sky in her heart, and her loyalty to love will even make her desperate, but the premise is that she must be strong enough to conquer her.
An Yi didn't continue the topic, remembered one thing in his heart, and asked Liu Siyi: "I don't know anything in my heart, last night the girl should have been a guest with Miss Ziyun in Yixian Building, and the girl and Ying Shu have nothing to do with each other, why did you make a righteous move?" ”
Liu Siyi looked out of the fence and said casually: "It's just that I don't want to see Miss Gao, a peerless beauty, ruined by that Zeng Ziren." ”
An Yi knew that what Liu Siyi said was not the truth, but after all, it was someone else who saved Liu Siyi and saved his own life, and it was not good to be uninteresting and have to find the root cause, so he nodded and stopped asking.
The night before, Childe's couplet was taken by Ziyun, but she refused the invitation of the guest to enter the curtain. I thought that Gongzi would become the first new thing in our Qianyun Tower, but I didn't expect that by mistake, I still couldn't escape. Liu Siyi said to him with a smile.
An Yi also smiled slightly and asked, "What?" Do you have to be your guest when you get to the scene? ”
Liu Siyi blinked, and said with some complaint in his tone: "At present, except for you, Childe, no one has ever given up this opportunity to others or refused on the spot." ”
Obviously, Liu Siyi was referring to the question that he was comfortable with at that time, but he gave up the opportunity to enter the Qianyun Pavilion to Lin Muzhi's rough man, which really made Liu Siyi, who was the head of the Qianyun Tower, a little uncomfortable, as if his own girl was not attractive, not to mention that the pavilion master of the day was still Ziyun.
"So, if I were to write a couplet that you could like to hang in front of the hall of the Qianyun Building, would I be your guest of honor Miss Liu?" An Yi looked at Liu Siyi with a little teasing,
Liu Siyi looked at him with interest, and his words were like an invisible hand, always gently picking up her chin so inadvertently. I inexplicably owed him a glass of water and wine last time, and this time I simply owe him a guest to enter the curtain.
She lightly pointed at the Qianyun Pavilion with her hand, and pretended to be helpless and said to An Yi: "The beauty here hasn't woken up yet, and you are teasing my sister outside?" Alas, man~"
An Yi smiled loudly and said to Liu Siyi: "Miss Liu is really a smart woman, the same move can't be used a second time in you." ”
Liu Siyi was praised by him, with a smile on his face, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and said pointedly: "That son, next time, remember to change a few more tricks to tease my sister, my sister can stand it." ”
An Yi shook his head helplessly, turned his head away, and looked at the scenery outside the building. This Liu Siyi is really a natural goblin, and ordinary men can't talk to her for a few words, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold it.
Liu Siyi seemed to see that An Yi was deliberately avoiding his gaze, and the smile on his face became even thicker now.
"Squeak~"
Behind An Yi, the door of the Qianyun Pavilion was opened, and Gao Yingshu walked out of the pavilion with a light rub on his forehead.
"Yingshu, are you awake? But is it okay? ”
An Yi stepped forward and asked Gao Yingshu with concern.
Gao Yingshu held his comfortable arm tightly with both hands, and lifted his legs with difficulty, so that he could cross the low threshold of Jiangyun Pavilion and walk out.
Liu Siyi saw Gao Yingshu like this, and naturally knew what the reason was. Gao Yingshu was already a virgin, and after taking so many acacia medicines, it was not easy to stand firmly on his legs in the morning.
Gao Yingshu raised her head and looked at Liu Siyi looking at her with a smile, her face turned red, and she gently buried her head in her comfortable arms, as if she was avoiding Liu Siyi's slightly ridiculous gaze.
Seeing this, An Yi hurriedly glanced at Liu Siyi, Liu Siyi naturally understood what he meant, and skimmed her cherry-like little mouth towards An Yi, and was about to turn around.
"Wait~"
Suddenly, Gao Ying, who was comfortably pregnant, called out to her,
Liu Siyi turned his head and looked at Gao Yingshu and raised his eyebrows, meaning to ask her if there was anything else?
Gao Ying loosened his comfortable arm, moved two steps forward a little reluctantly, and bowed towards Liu Siyi, "Last night, thank you Miss Liu for saving your life, if you have the opportunity, Ying Shu will repay you." ”
Liu Siyi was a little surprised when he heard this, this Gao Yingshu, as the daughter of the palace, could still bow down to thank herself, and had the temperament of a nobleman, but she didn't have the common problem of a princess, no wonder An Yi was so loving.
She smiled back and said, "Miss Gao doesn't have to be polite. Then he said and pointed to Gao Yingshu's comfort beside him with his hand, "I'm just repaying Childe's favor." With that, he turned and left.
An Yi put his hand on Gao Yingshu's shoulder, hugged her into his arms, and asked softly: "Or, you go to my old mansion for a while, An Xin will accompany you." ”
Gao Ying shook his head after hearing this, stroked An Yi's hand on his shoulder with a soft wattle, and said to An Yi with his head high: "No, I want to go back to the palace, although we already have a husband and wife, but after all, we are still not married, I have to take care of the royal face." Secondly, last night's incident happened suddenly, the new maid Ling'er has obviously been bought by Zeng Ziren, will there be a problem with the housekeeper Zhou who brought her in, my father asked me to act as an agent for the affairs of the house, I want to go back and find out. ”
An Yi nodded and said: "When I talked to Miss Liu about this matter last night, I suspected that it had something to do with the Wugu Sect, but there is no specific evidence yet, including Zeng Ziren's side, even if the prince comes back, I can't help him if I say it has no basis." That's good, I'll transfer some sharp people from the camp, and secretly sneak around the Shu Wangfu, if you encounter any emergency, they can keep you safe, and they can quickly notify me. ”
Gao Ying listened to it, and said a light "um~", and wanted to go forward, but who knew that he forgot the weakness in his legs, his ankles were weak, and he fell forward.
Thanks to An Yi's quick eyes, he hurriedly reached out and grabbed Gao Yingshu's waist who fell forward, and picked her up by the waist.
Gao Yingshu wrapped his arms around his comfortable neck, and complained in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "It's all your fault, my legs don't have any strength at all now." ”
An Yi pretended to be surprised and laughed: "My eldest lady, whose brother shouted that kiss last night, now blame me." ”
Before he could finish his sentence, a pink fist came to his face......
