Chapter 90: Cangcang Fenglin Temple
I'm sorry that the cold is very serious, so I went to sleep after taking medicine, and took medicine when I woke up, and I slept for two days and two nights. I have been in poor health, I often have colds and fevers, and I decided to go for injections to improve my immunity. )
Two days later, Gu Mengping changed into a monk's robe, and after showering and changing clothes for the old monk Mingkong, he wiped his whole body with balm.
Then a roaring flame was lit in the temple.
The fire is shining brightly, and the flames are blazing. The heat wave pierced through the clouds, reflecting the rising glow in the sky, and the red was dazzling.
The breeze was caressing the hedge, and the roses above were blooming brightly, but they were trembling under the flames, and slowly withered......
It is the end of a memory and the end of an era.
Gu Mengping couldn't bear to look at the smile of the old monk in the firelight, turned his head, and looked at the morning star that was still shining in the air.
Tears flowed down slowly......
In this long universe, where is the fate of the old monk? Will one of those planets separated by hundreds of millions of years belong to an old monk?
Gu Mengping lowered his head and closed his eyes tightly.
The roses on the fence swayed in the flames, and before they could fall into the dust, they had turned to ashes.
It caused a sigh outside the Fenglin Temple.
Two hours later, the temple was in ruins.
Gu Mengping stood in front of a pile of ashes, tears rippling from crying.
Gu Weiyu and the old patriarch were dumbfounded.
He ordered his servants to pick up the ashes with branches, but he saw a few dolls the size of pigeon's eggs, as smooth as jade, lying peacefully on the ground.
"Is this—a relic?" Gu Weiyu's voice changed, I don't know if he was shocked or happy. The upper and lower teeth collide with each other, so much so that there is a 'gurgling' sound.
"White?" The old patriarch's voice trembled faintly.
Jiang Sixian and Gao You were also surprised. Although the two of them stood farther away, they could see clearly. When the old monk of Mingkong was burned, the light of the flames reached the sky.
Gao You twisted his beard and thought thoughtfully, "When all the monks pass away, they all have different appearances. Then, he looked at Jiang Sixian, his eyes flickering, "Today's Xiaguan and Taishou are not worthy of their lives, they have seen such a miraculous event, but they will have to write such a stroke on the Xiaguan's fold another day." ”
Jiang Sixian thought a lot, the so-called relics, in fact, more than half of them are all kinds of magic weapons carried by monks, and there are very few that can burn meat relics. Today is the body that Gu Mengping cleaned for the old monk, and only put a string of sandalwood Buddhist beads on the old monk's wrist.
Other than that, there is nothing else. A monk who can burn meat relics -
Jiang Sixian shuddered for no reason, and looked at Gu Mengping, who was kneeling in front of the ashes of the old monk and crying bitterly.
His eyes were full of apologies and regrets.
"Naturally, such a grand event should be heard by heaven." Jiang Sixian arched his hand towards the sky.
As soon as these words came out, naturally some officials stepped forward to surround the ashes.
Gu Mengping raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Sixian.
Jiang Sixian's eyes flashed slightly, and he dodged.
Gu Weiyue couldn't hold it back, and said with a calm face: "Jiang Taishou, why is this?" Could it be that my family's funeral still needs to be used too much? ”
"Brother Yishan, why are you so angry?" Jiang Sixian smiled lightly, "Although this is the funeral of the Gu family, the great monk of Mingkong is a high-ranking monk with Huang Shudu on his body. Today, such a grand event should be reported. Gu Weiyu is known as Ji Zhong, because he has no official position now, Jiang Sixian sees that he is known as a name.
Gu Wei laughed angrily, and said with a teasing tone, "Today, Jiang Taishou is a guest of my Gu family, and my Gu family's inconsiderate hospitality has made Jiang Taishou stand for so many times, which is already disrespectful." How dare you bother Jiang Taishou to replace the blister? Jiang Taishou thinks so hard about our family, it is really respectable and his heart is obvious......"
When Jiang Sixian heard this, his face turned red.
But when he looked at Gu Mengping again, the look in his eyes became a little more firm.
Such a big event, he can't let Gu Mengping bear it! Since Gu Mengping worshipped himself as a teacher, he had to carry it for him.
This relic cannot be handed over to the Gu family, let alone handed over by the hands of the Gu family.
The only suitable person is Gao You.
Gu Mengping is a person who is preparing to enter the imperial examination, how can he be associated with such a strange event? If it is reported by Gaoyou, Gu Mengping's name can be hidden at that time. But if the Gu family reports it, will the old man of the Gu family care about a grandson who inherits the heir? As long as he casually mentions it, Gu Mengping's name will never be inseparable from the relics in the future.
Even if he entered the office, others will say that he entered the office by the light of the relics and not by the real material.
This is a lifelong stain on an official who wants to be a clear inflow into Hanlin.
Jiang Sixian smiled hehehe, "Thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, when it is peaceful today, the sea banquet and the river are clear." Today, Suiping County is also a grand event where Master Mingkong has shown miracles and relics, and you and I should participate in the grand event......" As he spoke, he looked at Gaoyou of Suiping Zhixian County, "Gao County, this is a happy event in your county, how can you just mention such a sum on the fold?" It is up to you to present the relics to Your Majesty together with the Songzhu...... Jiang Sixian looked at Gu Weiyu again, "Master is a high-ranking monk enshrined by your Gu family, and such a big event happened today, which is also the glory of your Gu family." If Gu Shilang in Beijing knew, I don't know what kind of joy he would become. ”
In and out of the words, he didn't mention Gu Mengping at all.
Gao You sighed unlucky, but he was deeply convinced of Jiang Sixian's words. Although Gu Mengping is not close to him, his talent is placed there, and it is really not suitable to have anything to do with relics.
"Naturally! Today's events are not only the glory of the Gu family, but also the glory of the county. Gao You echoed.
At this time, even Gu Mengping understood Jiang Sixian's meaning no matter how stupid he was, and his chest stirred for a while.
The teacher didn't blame him after all! I still have him in my heart.
He turned his head and gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Then he squatted down, held the ashes that were still a little warm with both hands, and carefully put them into the bag. Several officials wanted to step forward to stop him, but when they saw that he was just holding the ashes and not touching the relics, they just pretended to be deaf and dumb and didn't see it.
Before the ruin, the dispute continued.
Inside the ruins, the ashes were swept away little by little.
Then he put the relics that had been rubbed with the cleanest veil on a piece of silk cloth—
Gu Mengping knelt down again and kowtowed three times to the relics.
A maple leaf, floating in the spring breeze, tossing and turning.
Slowly fall on the Fenglin Temple, which has become a scorched earth!
Gu Mengping stood up and once again imprinted this former residence in his mind with a nostalgic gaze.
Strode down the mountain.
Yijing was stunned and followed closely behind him.
The mountain breeze is cool, the sound of the stream surrounds the forest, and the maple trees on both sides of the mountain road are green.
A corner of the gray monk's robe, draped in the bright and warm sun, stepping on the clear green goose yellow all over the ground under his feet, walking so slowly.
Jiang Sixian turned his head and looked at the corner of the monk's robe that disappeared into the mountain road.
The smile was light and light.
