"It's not a gift." Monk Huaihai smiled, and didn't explain, Han Rui naturally didn't want to ask more, besides, what he said just now was just a joke, he didn't care, he asked someone to get in the car at the moment, and left briskly.

Han Rui and Monk Huaihai sat in the same car, and they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, so they naturally had a lot to say, but for a while, they didn't know where to start, and with a smile, Han Rui asked, "How is Abbot Zhiyun's health?" ”

Abbot Zhiyun, the host of Qiling Temple, Han Rui has seen a few times, the old monk is a good person, never interacts with the dignitaries in Yangzhou City, Ping said that he only studies Buddhism in the temple, and his surname is very easy-going, in Han Rui's view, this is the real monk.

"Master is in good health, and I was still communicating with him a while ago, so I should be fine." Monk Huaihai said, heartfelt wishes.

Hey, Han Rui felt strange in his heart, and suddenly remembered Monk Huaihai's ambitions, and guessed: "Monk, communication, what do you mean?" For most of the past six months, have you really traveled all over the world? ”

"The donor is good at understanding the surname." Huaihai smiled, nodded and said: "After the donor left, the poor monk also moved the idea of traveling in all directions, walking in the monasteries of Zhuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, broadening his horizons, and only then did he discover his shortcomings. ”

"And then you came to the capital?" Han Rui said with a smile, he didn't think it was strange, after all, it was Yanjing, which was not only the center of politics, military, economy, and culture, but also a place where famous monks and famous monks gathered.

"Originally, according to the poor monk's plan, I would come to see it again in a few years, but I didn't think about it, and the plan didn't change quickly." Monk Huaihai sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "This time I came to Beijing just to be entrusted by someone to carry two letters. ”

"Leave after sending the letter, or stay and practice?" Han Rui asked.

"It depends on the situation, if it goes well, stay for a while and leave."

"Then I wish you no luck."

"Master Han Shi, it's really ......"

Laughing all the way, not long after, back to Anyifang, in the rented mansion, Zheng Nao asked them to arrive first, and they had already made preparations in the house, sprinkling water to clean the courtyard, setting the table and waiting for the water, although the smile was unscrupulous, but Han Rui couldn't really take something to embarrass Monk Huaihai, a wine banquet or something like that, there was definitely no need to prepare.

Fortunately, the chef in Han Rui's family was married by the Zheng Mansion, and the best thing is the vegetarian meal, which is light and delicious, authentic in taste, and will not be rude.

An important guest came, and the chef was instructed to take out his housekeeping skills, and Zheng Nao made an appointment to return to the room with Liu Ying and the painting screen.

Changing clothes and removing makeup, slender little hands, carefully picked off Zheng Nao's two earrings, and said: "Those monks are really annoying, Lang Jun finally has time, accompany the lady to the countryside, they come to spoil the scenery." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, Master Huaihai is a friend of my husband." Zheng Naoyue admonished softly.

"It's the one before, not the one now." Liu Ying said in a playful voice: "What is fate, Huigen, I obviously want to make Langjun a monk, regardless of the fact that others have already married, and the husband and wife are in love, I am really not a good person!" ”

"Don't worry, the husband doesn't have much affection for those monks." Zheng Naoyue said, naturally, that Huaihai monk is an exception, but the husband's attitude is clearly to treat him as a friend, not a monk.

"That's it." Liu Yingjiao smiled: "Where is Lang Jun willing to be a lady like a flower and jade." ”

"Flim Flam." Qiao blushed, Zheng Nao said thoughtfully: "Liuying, Huaping, we don't know much about the situation of my husband in Yangzhou, it seems inappropriate, what relatives and friends will come in the future, but we don't know, isn't it very rude." ”

"Lang Jun said that he used to be sick and weak for a long time, but he only recovered in the past two years and didn't make a few friends." The painting screen finger said slightly: "The fathers and villagers of Hanjia Village, as well as Qian Langjun's family of three, Yan Xuezheng, and Mr. Confucianism ......."

"Ping'er is really amazing, I remember everything Lang Jun said." Liuying smiled and said, the little face of the painting screen blushed, gouged out the eyes of Liuying, stopped talking, and folded Zheng Naoyu's clothes lightly with his small hands.

"Fu Junping said that he just talked casually, and did not talk about it in detail." Zheng Naoyue said softly: "For example, Master Huaihai, but I haven't heard of it before, if I hadn't met today, how would I know that they have a good relationship." ”

"That's the same thing." Liu Ying agreed: "But don't worry, listen to Lang Jun's meaning, this year or next year, take a long vacation, return to the hometown to visit relatives, at that time, the lady will naturally go together, everything can be clear." ”

Just when a few ladies were chatting in the room, Han Rui and Monk Huaihai also got out of the carriage, entered the house, walked to the hall, and sat on the opposite table, Monk Huaihai finally sighed and smiled: "Life encounters, it is really wonderful, like the world, unfathomable, a year ago, the donor was just an unknown Tian Shelang in the countryside, but a year later, he has become a famous school scholar in the capital, everyone knows, and everyone knows." ”

"I can't boast anymore, and if I continue to boast, I will be complacent and complacent." Han Rui said with a smile.

Monk Huaihai chuckled, the sigh in his heart, not just a few words, can be expressed, on the way to hear Han Rui's name, there are still a little doubts in my heart, I think it may be the same name and surname, until I arrived in Chang'an, only to know that when Han Rui was in Yangzhou, the talent he showed was just the tip of the iceberg, and he was amazed, if it wasn't for the kung fu to get home, Monk Huaihai, doubting that he had been practicing hard for many years without moving Zen heart, I am afraid that he would be lost.

"Master Han's achievements are extraordinary, which really makes the poor monks happy and sad." Monk Huaihai said.

Han Rui wondered: "Why are you worried? ”

"If it's not good, Lord Han Shi is not strange." Monk Huaihai saluted, sighed and said: "The career is bitter, fame and fortune are red, Han Shizhu is deeply trapped, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out." ”

Stunned, Han Rui said abruptly: "Monk, it seems that you haven't given up yet, and you have to let me become a monk before you give up." ”

"Amitabha, the benefactor is naturally wise, if you can let go of worldly fame and fortune and concentrate on cultivation, you will definitely be able to seek the Tao." Monk Huaihai swore to persuade him, and he began to sprout again.

When he was in Yangzhou, Monk Huaihai persuaded Han Rui to become a monk for three days, and he was used to it, but Han Rui simply refused again, changed the topic wisely, and asked with a smile: "The monk wanders around, what have you seen or heard?" ”

Monk Huaihai naturally regretted it, but he was also used to refusal, so he immediately calmed down and replied truthfully: "Poor monks are traveling, not looking for famous mountains and scenic spots, how can there be anything to see, but just to place orders in various monasteries and listen to the teachings of senior monks." ”

"That's a pity." Han Rui said, shaking his head and sighing, you must know that the monk can pass the border with the monk spy without paying taxes, and the temples and temples are open all day, including food and accommodation, no need to pay, it can be called a free trip, a great opportunity, you can concentrate on watching the beautiful scenery of various places, but it is wasted.

Huaihai monk crying and laughing, walking and traveling, only when the transition, only by boat, the bitterness and suffering, not in a few words can be explained clearly, the wind and rain, the cold moon, the wind and dew, poisonous snakes and beasts, straw sandals do not know how many pairs of wear out, the soles of the feet are covered with blood blisters, when walking, broken, rotten, not into shape, the heart is piercing...... Everything, such as people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness, Monk Huaihai smiled indifferently and did not defend his grievances.

"Wowhaha, it's really a great monk here."

At the right time, there was a sound of surprise outside the hall, the bead curtain rolled, Qian Feng strode over, saw Monk Huaihai, felt very cordial, and saluted: "Master Huaihai, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you have always been well?" ”

"If you have the money to care about it, the poor monk has a pearl in his heart, and he is naturally safe if he is not covered by dark dust." Monk Huaihai said with a smile and folded his hands in return, after all, he often went to Han Rui's house, and the two met many times, so they naturally knew each other.

What kind of pearl, dusty and the like, Qian Feng knows, most of them are sharp and the like, half-understood, and said vaguely: "Just be safe, just be safe." ”

The world is ignorant, and it is not easy to ignite, but when it comes to the long side, there will always be a time when the successful crossing, Monk Huaihai sighed lightly in his heart, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the Qian donor, the high school jinshi, and you got your wish." ”

In a good mood, Qian Feng hurriedly thanked him, and said that he was a TOEFL.

After a greeting, more money, the atmosphere in the hall was more lively, and I heard the two of them talk about their experiences in Chang'an, Huaihai listened carefully, sometimes sighing, sometimes happy, but a qualified listener. The three of them chatted eagerly, and a servant came over and said softly: "Lang Jun, it's noon, the side hall has prepared a vegetarian meal, please move and eat." ”

Han Rui stood up and sent out an invitation, but when he saw Monk Huaihai get up, still holding a long brocade box in his hand, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Monk, what kind of treasure is in your hand, it is so tight and inseparable." ”

"Amitabha, a poor monk is a monk, what treasures can he have." Monk Huaihai said softly: "Didn't you say it just now, the poor monk came to the capital, but he was entrusted by someone to bring a letter of condolence to the secretary and supervisor Yu benefactor......

"Condolences? What condolence letters? Han Rui asked in surprise.

"Three months ago, the poor monk went to Yuezhou Yongxin Temple, to visit the master Zhiyong, the poor monk was fortunate to get guidance, so he stayed to practice, I don't want to spend more than a month, Zhiyong Shibo's merits are complete, the circle is mortal, the senior brothers are busy holding a water and land festival for the teacher, and they can't take the time to inform the donor Yu, so the poor monk volunteered to come." Monk Huaihai explained that between the eyebrows, there are two points of sadness, that is, when you become a monk, it is not so easy to see through life and death.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall was a little heavy, Han Rui knew that Master Zhiyong was Yu Shinan's mentor, and now that he had passed away, he had to inform him if he was reasonable, and with this relationship, Han Rui couldn't help but sigh.

Speaking of Zhiyong is not an ordinary monk, the seventh grandson of calligraphy Wang Xizhi, the allusion of retiring the pen into a mound, at that time it can be said that the world is well-known, the world admires it, and now it is also a hundred years old, with the conditions of this era, it can be regarded as the end of life, presumably Yu Shinan should see it.

While Han Rui was thinking, another servant came quickly outside the door, and before he could stand firmly, he hurriedly said, "Lang Jun, Secretary Yu is visiting......
