Chapter 4 Female benefactor, go back to the mountain with the poor monk

The figure of the chasing soldier gradually drifted away, but Zhiqing's heart was not so relaxed, he actually told a lie today, and deceived a few people who asked him about things, what a big sin! Cultivators have always paid attention to spiritual reflection, and as soon as his lie came out, his heart immediately felt bad, and he didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong, and he didn't know whether the Buddha would punish him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoActually, he didn't need the punishment of the Buddha, the punishment of his own heart had already made him feel tormented.

"Thank you, Brother Monk, if it weren't for you, I would really be captured by them!" Ziyun held Zhiqing's hand, still limping away, this time, she was really grateful to this little monk who had reached out to her.

"No thanks, relieving people's dangers and helping people's poverty are all what we monks should do! Miss Ziyun, although they searched elsewhere, they may not come back, so where are you going, you can't always hide in this grass nest, right? ”

"I don't know, I don't have anywhere to go right now!" Ziyun lowered his head silently, one left hand was still cleaning the dried mud on his clothes, and his slightly upturned lips were so pitiful and moving.

"Otherwise, I'm going back to our temple now, you can come with me to our temple to hide for two days, and when your injuries are healed, you can go down the mountain to find your relatives, what do you say?"

In fact, Zhiqing had no way for a while, he was going back to Jietai Temple, he met this girl halfway, if he left her alone, he would definitely push her into the tiger's mouth again, and wanted to send her back to her mother's house, but she didn't want to go home now, and she didn't want to say much about the things at home, so she had no choice but to let her go back to the mountain with herself, although Jietai Temple is a temple, but there are also a few clean rooms in the temple, specially prepared for some female pilgrims, although few female pilgrims have lived, but how much is a sheltered place.

"So... Is that good? Ziyun also felt embarrassed for a while, after all, she was a daughter's family, and if she went to live in the monk's pile, she would inevitably be talked about, but now she is indeed desperate, and she is in a dilemma for a while.

"What's wrong? You're afraid of being seen, aren't you? Don't worry, very few people come up to our temple, and even if someone comes to see you, you can say that you are a pilgrim who burns incense and makes vows! Zhiqing smiled and explained to him, trying to dispel her concerns.

"Hmm... Okay, I wonder if the master of your monastery is willing to take me in? ”

"How could you not want to? Our old abbot is a very good old man, he is a disciple of Master Jianzhen, and he is a high-ranking monk, he will not ignore you! ”

Ziyun heard that there were still any monks in their temple, and she wanted to go and see for a while, although she was a daughter's family, but she was at a playful and active age, and she had never been out of the house on weekdays, nor had she been to these barren mountains and wild temples, and after listening to Zhiqing's introduction, she was really a little interested.

"Well, that's really bothering you!"

"Hehe, it's not troublesome, how can it be troublesome? Although our Jietai Temple is a small temple, it is also an ancient temple, and there is no one in Jiangdu County who does not know! Zhiqing saw that this girl was willing to go to the temple with him, how could he not be happy? On weekdays, even mosquitoes are brought in this Jietai Temple, where are any female pilgrims willing to come? Now that this Ziyun girl has nowhere to go for the time being, and she can't bear to leave her alone, taking her back to the temple seems to be the best choice.

"Our temple is still some distance from here, let's hurry first, besides, if that guy comes back to you again, it will be troublesome!"

"Well, well! But... My feet hurt so much, I'm afraid I won't be able to go far! Ziyun looked at his right foot, and he didn't know if the injury was serious, but he only felt a faint pain from his ankle, especially when he was about to start.

"It's... What can I do? Or... Otherwise, I... I'll carry you, right? As soon as Zhiqing said this, his face began to turn red, he silently lowered his head and didn't even dare to look at Ziyun's reaction, in fact, he was just a sixteen-year-old little monk, and he didn't think too much about the affairs of men and women.

"So... It's not okay, you've already helped me so much, how embarrassing it would be for you to carry me on my back, besides, it's still a daughter's family...... I... I'd better go by myself, you just need to help me! ”

"Oh, okay then." Zhiqing saw that Ziyun politely rejected her request, so naturally she didn't want to say anything more, but fortunately, Ziyun's injury was not too serious, and one of her left legs could still walk, although her walking posture was not very good-looking, but this place was not too far from Poria Mountain, and she should be able to return to the temple before dark.

The warm sun had set in the west, the blue sky was covered with a few clouds, and the spring sun was shining on a deserted path, and a little monk was slowly walking towards the temple in the distance.

No one would have thought that this seemingly outrageous scene turned out to be the starting point of a historical turmoil, and this sixteen-year-old monk would face a double choice between history and fate......
