Hearing this, although Du Bai's face did not change, there were some waves in his heart.

This old woman can actually see these emotions that he has never shown at all?

There is indeed some confusion and anxiety about the future hidden in his heart.

Whether it is traveling from modern times to this strange world, or the identity of his son-in-law, and the crisis faced by another ghost king clone......

Although he never mentioned these things in his mouth, he always had a hidden worry in his heart, not knowing what he should do next, how to do it, and even not knowing where the future of his coming into this world is.

He thinks he is well hidden, and he tries his best to play two completely different roles so that outsiders don't see any flaws.

However, at this time, it was seen through all at once......

This made him pay attention to this old man.

"But even if you really tell the Buddha about your troubles, will the Buddha really help?" Du Bai said softly, "Buddha is not omnipotent, if it is really effective, then there will not be so many poor and wicked people in the world, and the world is also a prosperous beauty." ”

"Because it is useless to lie in front of the Buddha." The old woman slowly opened her eyes, and there was only calm in a pair of slightly cloudy eyes, "Everyone has greed, too many people seek the Buddha to satisfy those insignificant desires, and the heart is not sincere, and the Buddha can't hear their true heart." ”

"Heart?" Du Bai was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly.

He didn't understand what his true mind was, and how could the Buddha understand.

Then I heard the old woman say slowly: "Cherish the present, don't care about the past......"

Du Bai's eyes condensed slightly, and he looked down, but found that the old man had closed his eyes, and he didn't seem to have any intention of explaining further.

"Thank you." He hesitated for a moment, then bowed slightly.

It's just that I secretly made a note in my heart.

But at this moment, Su Zhirou walked in, glanced at Du Bai and quickly looked away, fell on the old woman kneeling in front of the Buddha, walked forward slowly and asked in a low voice: "Old man, can the Buddha really hear the sincerity you say?" ”

She heard it......

Du Bai was stunned and smiled, but he was not too surprised. What he said just now was not secret, and he didn't deliberately lower his voice, this temple is not big in total, and it is normal to hear it.

And what the old woman said did sound a little reasonable, and in any case, asking for the Buddha is more about seeking peace of mind, and really expecting the Buddha to come down to earth to fulfill his wishes is tantamount to hoping that pie will fall from the sky.

The old woman did not affirm or deny it, but said slowly: "If the girl has something to ask for, it is always right to come and worship the Buddha." ”

Su Zhirou actually doesn't believe in ghosts and gods very much, after all, most of the people in this society regard ghosts and gods as an object of study, and if they study too much and see too much, the awe in their hearts will gradually fade.

Only at this moment, she hesitated, but still carefully knelt on the ground on the futon that did not look very clean, and closed her eyes and prayed decently.

If she could, she would be willing to believe this time.

After that, she didn't say what she prayed to the Buddha, but the somewhat strange old woman said: "Sincerity is spiritual." It seems to affirm her sincerity.

Until he left, Du Bai did not kneel down to worship the Buddha.

He knew that the current gods and Buddhas had disappeared, and worshipping the Buddha was only a form of shelf, without much meaning. But the conversation with the old woman gave him some gains.

Several members of the Society are already planning to leave. After all, when they learned that everything was a rumor, there was no need for them to stay in such a wild place and suffer hardships, it was better to go back and visit the next location earlier.

The only surprise was that Wang Chengyuan seemed to have no acquaintance with the little bird, and at this time they were quite reluctant to say goodbye to each other. If he hadn't known that the bird was the only companion of the old woman, he would have really wanted to spend money to buy the bird and bring it back.

After saying goodbye to the old man, everyone got into the carriage and prepared for the return journey. Although I didn't see the expected ghosts and gods on this trip, it was also a good enjoyment as an outing, and several people were a little excited and tired on their faces.

After a tiring journey, I finally returned to Yongxu Village before the sun went down.

It's just that when I first entered the village, I met a few young people dressed as scholars and carrying bookcases who were about to leave.

Xu Zhiyan glanced out, but he happened to see a somewhat familiar face, and after being stunned for a while, he happily asked, "Is it Brother Lu?!" Long time no see! ”

When the scholar heard someone shouting to himself, he turned around in surprise, and sure enough, he saw Xu Zhiyan who was walking down from the carriage, and his face showed a hint of joy: "Zhiyan! I didn't expect to meet you here! ”

"yes, I didn't expect that." Xu Zhiyan sighed slightly, "I haven't seen each other for a year since the last time I said goodbye to Nanlincheng. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the bookcase behind the other party, and asked with a little doubt: "Brother Lu, are you going to the capital to catch the exam?" ”

"No, no, no......" Lu Shusheng shook his head and smiled, "It's just going to study at Nishan Academy." ”

"Nishan Academy?" Xu Zhiyan thought for a moment and sighed, "It's a long way to go, and I'm afraid I won't see each other for a while." ”

Immediately, he glanced at the scholars who were traveling with him again: "It's not early today, why don't you stay here for one night, and you and I have a good chat......

"No, if you delay the time, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the academy." The scholar surnamed Lu politely refused, "We all bring dry food, and when it gets late, we can stay overnight for the time being." There were many of us, and we made fires, and the wild beasts of the mountains and forests did not dare to approach. ”

"That'......s fine," Xu Zhiyan sighed lightly, and then seemed to remember something, and mentioned, "By the way, there is a Lanruo Temple in the place where you go in this direction, and there is a kind old woman in it, if you can catch it, you might as well spend the night there." It is better to have a house to shelter from the wind and rain than to sleep in the open. ”

"Thank you very much!"

The two saluted goodbye, and the scholars also left together with a smile, and walked slowly in the direction that Du Bai and the others had just returned.

Looking at the direction of their departure, Xu Zhiyan gradually withdrew his pity and explained to Du Bai and the others: "That Brother Lu is a friend I met when I traveled abroad, he is righteous, but unfortunately his family is poor, and he is determined to gain fame and glory to his ancestors. Presumably, the study quota of Nishan Academy this time was obtained by him with a lot of effort, so he will naturally cherish it. It's a pity ......"

He wanted to speak, but he stopped.

"That's a good thing, so why pity?" Du Bai was a little puzzled.
