Li Bai heard Ziyun ask him about the situation in Luoyang, and he became curious for a while, so he asked with a smile: "What's the matter, girl, you have also been to Luoyang?" ”

Ziyun hurriedly put down the wine jug in his hand and said to Li Baiyan: "Of course I've been there!" He also said: "Don't hide it from adults, the folk girl is the Luoyang family, just because she was lost with her parents when she was four years old, she fell into the hands of traffickers, and later was sold here by traffickers and was fostered in Changle Fang in the county seat of Shanxia." My biggest wish for so many years is to return to Luoyang to find my parents, but I can't remember the way to Luoyang, and I don't remember my parents' names and surnames...... "After that, I couldn't help but feel lost and sad."

"Oh..."Li Bai listened to Ziyun's life experience, and also nodded secretly and sighed for a while, and said: "So that's the case, no wonder you came to this temple to help cook at a young age, I think it's because your biological parents are not around, no one loves you, presumably you have suffered a lot for so many years, blame the poor girl." ”

Ziyun rubbed his nose and smiled again: "It's okay, the masters here take good care of me, and I don't feel wronged here, but I always have a regret in my heart, that is, I couldn't find my father and mother, and I couldn't tell them that I was still alive, so that they don't worry about me anymore." By the way, Lord Li, is Luoyang far from Yangzhou? How much money does it cost to go by boat? ”

As soon as Li Bai saw Ziyun asking him about the mileage and cost of going to Luoyang, he expected that what she said about being abducted and trafficked should be true, so he stroked his beard and said: "Well, it's a coincidence, the old man came to Yangzhou this time to take the waterway, I boarded the boat in Luoyang on the ninth day of last month, and arrived in Jiangdu on the 24th of this month, and walked for more than 40 days in total. Luoyang is only a month away from Yangzhou by water, as for the cost of the trip, it is not easy to say, if you don't travel along the way, ten taels of silver is enough. ”

"Ten taels of silver? Can you get to Luoyang in a month? "Ziyun obviously overestimated the distance between Yangzhou and Luoyang. It's just because Ziyun and her parents got lost that year, and they were taken by traffickers for more than half a year before they arrived in Yangzhou, and I don't know how many times the water and drought roads have changed, so in Ziyun's heart, Luoyang is a place far away in the sky, a place far away in a dream. I didn't want to hear this Lord Li say that it would only take a month to go to Luoyang by water, which made Ziyun excited again.

"Brother Zhiqing, did you hear, from here to Luoyang, it only takes a month to arrive!" Ziyun turned around and said excitedly to Zhiqing.

"Mmmm, Yun'er, I heard it, it's been a month." Zhiqing was also sincerely happy for Ziyun, because he understood Ziyun's feeling of dreaming of reuniting with his parents, and this feeling he had before he learned the news of his parents' murder.

"Brother Zhiqing, when I have saved enough money, will you accompany me to Luoyang to find my parents?" Ziyun grabbed Zhiqing's sleeve and asked him excitedly, as if she saw her parents waving to her not far away, and her long-standing wish seemed to be coming true soon.

"Well, okay, Yun'er, as long as Master agrees, I am willing to accompany you to Luoyang to find relatives, but Luoyang is so big, it is not easy to find your parents, we still have to make full preparations." Zhiqing promised Ziyun on the other hand, and at the same time calmed her excited mood, because going to a place thousands of miles away to find relatives, in the end is not a child's play, not to mention that the travel expenses of the two people are entangled is a big problem, even if they arrive in Luoyang, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find Ziyun's parents for a while, after all, it has been more than ten years since Ziyun and her parents were lost.

"What, this girl really wants to go to Luoyang to find relatives?" Li Bai, who was sitting on the side, was eating vegetables while listening to the conversation between these two young people who were not familiar with the world.

"Yes, my lord, don't you know, Sister Yun'er has always had a wish, that is, she hopes to find her parents one day sooner. Master Li, you are well-informed and have made many friends, I wonder if you can give us some advice, so that Sister Yun'er can fulfill her wish as soon as possible. Zhiqing suddenly thought that since the Li Hanlin in front of him had boarded the ship from Luoyang, he would definitely have some friends in Luoyang, and if he could get his help, it might make it easier for Ziyun to find his parents, even if he was unwilling to help, let him talk more about Luoyang, even if it was the local customs, maybe it would be of some help to find relatives in the future.

Ziyun listened to Zhiqing's words, and also felt that this Li Hanlin was not an ordinary official, she looked at the long-bearded old man in civilian clothes in front of her, and saw that he was eating with his mouth open, and at the same time, he had to reach out to take the wine jug and add wine to the glass. Seeing the situation, Ziyun picked up the wine jug with both hands, and smiled slightly at Li Bai:

"Master Li, let me come, let Yun'er add wine to you!"

In the eyes of Li Bai, a bachelor of Hanlin who has experienced the ups and downs of the Huan Sea, Zhiqing and Ziyun are nothing more than a pair of hairy boys and girls, but after listening to their respective life experiences, they recalled many bitter memories of his own youth, in fact, Li Bai's father was a businessman, and he went out all the year round and did not return, his mother was sick, and died when Li Bai was seven years old, he also knew that the affection of his parents was valuable to the growth of a teenager, and he was full of infinite sympathy for Ziyun's experience, he took a sip of wine lightly and smiled at Ziyun:

"There is Miss Lao pouring wine for me, just chong the girl's cooking skills, Li can't help you, I don't hide from the two, the old man does have some friends in Luoyang, that Luoyang County Ling Gao Qian is an old friend of mine, his brother Gao Shi is now in Hangu Pass as a garrison, I met with him when I went out of the customs a month ago, these two brothers are my best friends, I can write a letter for the girl, tell the girl of the life experience of the girl, ask him to find the biological parents for the girl, what do you think?"

When Ziyun heard this, he immediately rejoiced. "Is this true? Do you really know that Luoyang County Commander? ”

"It's still fake!" Li Bai said with a smile.

Ziyun was so excited that she didn't know what to say for a while, she didn't expect the old bachelor in front of her to be so powerful, even the county order of Luoyang was his friend, she seemed to be as excited as seeing her parents and relatives. Ziyun hurriedly knelt down and thanked him: "Thank you, my lord, you are really a good person, Ziyun will remember your kindness for the rest of your life!" ”

"Girl doesn't have to be like this, it's just a gesture!" Hurriedly helped Ziyun up, and said: "Today Li came to this ancient temple in the deep mountains, to be able to get acquainted with the girl and this little master, it is also the fate between us, as the saying goes, 'eat people with soft mouths, take people with short hands', I ate the delicious meal made by the girl, and drank your wine, it is natural to do something for you, you don't have to be polite." He smiled and took another drink.

Ziyun turned around and looked at Zhiqing who was standing aside, and was very happy to see that Zhiqing was also smiling. Ziyun walked over and said to Zhiqing: "Brother Zhiqing, I'm about to see my parents, it's true, it's true!" ”

"Yes, Yun'er, it's true, I'm so happy for you." Zhiqing was also as excited as Ziyun, but in addition to this excitement, Zhiqing was still a little envious in his heart, because at least Ziyun still had the hope of seeing his parents, but he had no chance to see his parents again.

While he was talking, he heard footsteps outside the door, and Hui Ming, Hui Jue and a few little monks were walking in. When Master Huiming came in and saw Zhiqing and Ziyun with joy on their faces, he asked with a smile, "What are you talking about with Master Li, why are you so happy?" ”

Zhiqing said: "Master, you don't know, Master Li is friends with the Luoyang Magistrate, and he promised to help Sister Ziyun find her parents!" ”

"Oh? If so? Hui Ming looked at Ziyun who was standing on the side, and saw that she nodded excitedly, so he believed it. said to Li Baiyan: "Amitabha, the matter of the Ziyun girl has bothered the adults, and the poor monk has taken the Ziyun girl to thank the adults!" ”

Li Bai said with a smile: "Master doesn't need to be polite, since Li has arrived at the Buddha's territory today, he naturally has to do some good deeds. After that, he asked if there was a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and Hui Ming asked Zhiqing to take the four treasures of the study, and spread the paper on a few cases on the windowsill, Li Bai took the sheep hair that had been in the center, and dipped it in thick ink, so he put Ziyun and his parents lost on a letterhead, and sealed it with a cover, and wrote the five words "Gao County Gong Jingqi" on the cover, and handed it to Ziyun, and instructed: "The girl only needs to hand over this letter to the Gao County Order, and he will help you find your relatives!" ”

Ziyun took the letter, and if she had obtained a treasure, she hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and Li Bai hurriedly helped her up.

Everyone was polite again, and Master Huiming said to Li Baiyan: "I have heard for a long time that Li Hanlin's poetry and writing are good, and he is good at grass, today the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are ready, and the poor monk has the courage to ask, I wonder if Li Hanlin can leave some ink treasures for the temple?" ”

This Li Taibai loves to drink and compose poems, every time he travels to the famous mountains and rivers, someone will ask for poems and ink treasures, so he is also accustomed to this kind of thing, seeing the monks in the temple to entertain himself like this, he agreed to Master Huiming's request for a while, waved a poem with a pen, and wrote:

The smoke cage bell of the fog lock meditation hall, and the sound of water in the bamboo forest stream.

The short chime on the hall is rainy, and the long steps outside the threshold are desert wind.

The Luohan Hall moved forward with the shadow of the sun, and the birds on the Wind Pavilion changed their songs.

The head is full of green silk with the year, and the Buddha lamp is ever-bright.
