Chapter 149: The Last Time
Lingquan Temple is more than 60 miles away from the city. When taking the official road, the road is relatively smooth and easy to walk, but when going up the mountain, the mountain road is bumpy, swaying left and right, so that Gu Xian vomited everything she ate in the morning.
When the group arrived at Lingshan Temple, except for Qingshu and Qin's mother, the others were all dish-faced.
Mrs. Lin was anxious to go to the incense to worship the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, and endured the physical discomfort and led the group into the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
This time, Mrs. Lin was more generous than before, and donated ten taels of silver sesame oil money.
Lingquan Temple is more than three times the size of Ganlu Temple, and there are more Bodhisattvas enshrined than that of Ganlu Temple. It took the group more than three quarters of an hour to finish worshipping all the Bodhisattvas.
At this time, except for Qingshu, everyone else was so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.
When the rice came, Mrs. Lin took a bite of tofu and exclaimed: "This tofu is really good, smooth and tender." ”
Gu Xian said with a smile: "Mother, the food of Lingquan Temple is very famous in Fucheng, and many people come to eat it. ”
These were all told to the mother and daughter by Qin's mother in the carriage just now.
Qingshu deliberately added: "It's not cheap, ordinary people are reluctant to eat." ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Lin looked at the table of fasting and asked, "How much is this fasting meal?" ”
Hearing that it cost three taels of silver, Mrs. Lin's eyes were about to pop out, and three taels of silver could buy a table of first-class noodles in the best restaurant in Tai F County.
"How can it be so expensive?"
She is too expensive for a fasting meal in Ganlu Temple, and the average person who eats a fasting here reaches 500 yuan, which is a pit! She didn't want to do this.
Gu Xian regretted it a little, and she didn't say it if she knew it: "Mother, this meal is delicious, so it's a little more expensive." ”
Mrs. Lin asked, "How much does it cost to stay for one night?" ”
Lingquan Temple for one night, ordinary room only costs 100 yuan. However, I will try it in April, and those who have an end at home will come to incense. Therefore, at this time, the coupon is overcrowded.
The monk looked at Gu Xian dressed well, and said, "There are no ordinary guest rooms in the temple anymore, but there are still two courtyards that are not inhabited. ”
Mrs. Lin thought about the price of the meal just now, and she couldn't help asking, "How much does it cost?" ”
Amitabha, a monk who knew the guest, said with a sigh: "Those two courtyards are for entertaining nobles, and the cost is more expensive than ordinary rooms. For one night, ten taels of silver were needed. ”
Hearing this number, Mrs. Lin couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth: "Ten taels of silver a night, why don't you go and grab it?" You are a temple, not an inn. ”
If the monk didn't take care of Gu Xian and Qingshu wearing fine silk, he would not recommend this courtyard to them: "If the donor doesn't want to live, we won't force it." ”
She donated ten taels of sesame oil just now, and the money was a little painful, but this was for the sake of her son's future. But she was reluctant to live in the yard for ten or two nights.
Qingshu heard Mrs. Lin say that she wanted to go back and disagreed; "It's getting late now, it won't be safe to go down the mountain, mother, let's stay one night and go back."
Old Mrs. Lin glanced at Qingshu and said, "If you are willing to stay and live here, then you can stay!" ”
Qingshu replied unceremoniously: "Then you can go back if you want to, and my mother and I will go back tomorrow morning." ”
It's a pity that Gu Xian is always a dragger: "Qingshu, it's still early, we can get to the bottom of the mountain before dark." ”
Mrs. Lin took everyone to the main hall to offer incense to the Bodhisattva, and after worshipping the Bodhisattva, she was ready to go down the mountain.
At this time, it was already halfway through.
Qingshu looked at the dark sky and said, "Mother, it seems to be raining this day." Mother, let's stay in the temple tonight and go down tomorrow! ”
Mrs. Lin said impatiently: "Why do you have too many things, I said that if you are reluctant to go back, you will stay." ”
Qingshu knew that it didn't make sense to talk to Mrs. Lin, so she didn't tell the old lady at all.
Mrs. Lin said impatiently: "Daughter-in-law Chengyu, take good care of this girl." ”
Gu Xian pulled Qingshu aside and said, "Qingshu, how can you let your grandmother go down the mountain by herself, if there is anything, how can your mother explain it to your father." ”
Qing Shu said irritably when she heard this: "Mother, why is it what your grandmother says, can't you make your own decisions?"
Gu Xian was so unassertive, Qingshu was really worried. Now everything is going with Mrs. Lin, and when she goes to the capital, everything must follow Lin Chengyu.
Gu Xian felt that Qingshu was making a big fuss, and frowned: "Your grandmother is an elder, and this is not a big deal, what's wrong with her?" ”
Qingshu immediately asked, "What does that mother think is important?" ”
Seeing the mother and daughter standing still, Mrs. Lin raised her voice and shouted, "What are you doing there?" It's getting dark, so don't hurry up and get into the carriage. ”
Gu Xian took Qingshu's hand and said, "Let's go!" ”
Qingshu stood still: "If you want to go, I won't go down the mountain anyway." ”
Gu Xian couldn't do it, so she had to squat down and pick up Qingshu, and when she saw her struggling, she said with a straight face: "Why are you so ignorant?" What do you think of making a fuss here for outsiders to see? ”
Qingshu was also annoyed: "I'm not happy myself, how can I care what others think?" ”
Gu Xian's face changed slightly, but she was afraid that Old Lady Lin would scold her, so she had to coax Qingshu and said, "Qingshu is good, let's go to the capital in a few days, and now bear with it." ”
Qingshu didn't eat this set at all: "Forbearance, forbearance, forbearance, you say this sentence every time, and as a result, grandmother is even worse." Mother, I want to endure you, I don't want to endure it anymore. ”
Gu Xian said: "This is the last time. When we got back, we packed our things and set off for the capital. ”
Having said that, Qing Shu knew that he couldn't convince Gu Xian.
This time, I was afraid that Gu Xian would have an accident, so I followed, how could I really let Gu Xian follow Mrs. Lin down the mountain.
The group went down the mountain, and it rained not long after walking.
The rain was not heavy, but because of the rain, the gray surrounding area could not be seen too far.
Qing Shu didn't want to talk to Gu Xian, so he simply crossed his legs and practiced the internal strength method.
Mother Qin asked Gu Xian in some surprise, "What is the girl doing?" ”
Gu Xian said with a smile: "Master Duan taught her a set of internal skills, and she has to practice them three or four times a day. I've been practicing for more than half a year, and I haven't seen anything famous. ”
Old Lady Gu told Gu Xian not to talk about Qingshu. It's a pity that Gu Xian thinks that this is just a trivial matter, and she thinks it's nothing to tell people. Fortunately, she felt that it was not a glorious thing for girls to learn martial arts, so she didn't say anything to the public.
Mother Qin was taken aback: "Internal Strength Method? Was it taught by Master Duan? ”
Seeing Gu Xian nodding, Mother Qin exclaimed: "I thought Master Duan was just teaching the girl some leg and foot kung fu, but I didn't expect that he even taught her the inner strength and mental method." ”
Seeing Gu Xian's puzzled face, Mother Qin said: "Mrs. doesn't know, Master Duan has a prominent reputation in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know how many people want to worship under his name." It's a pity that after Master Duan only accepted two apprentices, he vowed not to accept apprentices again. ”
Gu Xian asked, "Hearing you say this, is this set of internal strength methods very powerful?" ”
Mother Qin said with a smile: "Master Duan is famous all over the world for Duan's boxing, and it is rumored that if you want to learn Duan's boxing well, you must practice the Duan's internal skills. ”
Gu Xian asked, "How powerful is that Duan Family Fist?" ”
"It is said that when Master Duan was at his peak, he could punch through the wall with one punch."
