Lizhan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Shangguan Jinyu lying on the bed.

Since hitting Qishui, Shangguan Jinyu has been removed from the space. Just because she is a daughter, it is inconvenient to take care of her, and many things can only be done by subordinates.

On the table next to it was a bowl of freshly boiled medicine.

"Qiao'er, pry his mouth open."

Qiao'er nodded and did so, watching as Lizhan fed the newly developed decoction into Shangguan Jinyu's mouth little by little.

The boy swallows and eats, but he never speaks or opens his eyes.

He was lying on the bed, his eyebrows and eyes were so good-looking that he could fly to the sky, like a carefully carved jade statue, which was pleasing to the eye.

It's a pity...... Such a good skin just can't survive, and can only be raised with rice grain for people to see.

Qiao'er had forgotten that this was the first medicine to try, and as a bystander, she had long lost hope for Shangguan Jinyu's awakening.

However, she also knew that Lizhan would not give up, absolutely not.

She vaguely felt that this patient was different from other patients, and that he had an unusual patience in treating him.

But as for why, Lizhan never said it, and she couldn't think of a reason.

A bowl of medicine successively took a small half cup of tea to feed it clean. He put down the bowl and took the softest white yarn to dry the stains on the corners of his mouth little by little.

"The big cold is coming, the weather is suddenly much colder, don't break the charcoal fire in the house, and add one more mattress, don't let your son get caught in the cold, otherwise I really have no shame to explain to his parents."

"Yes, the slave will arrange it."

"Master!" A voice called Wow Wow came running from the door, and the little man was jumping up and down followed by a snow-white kitten.

"Master!" Miao Miao wore a thick wolf hair cat on her head, with a soft fox fur around her neck, and a thick cotton clip between her little fur clothes, wrapping him into a ball.

Rao is like this, a little face is still red from the cold, and the snot is about to fall out of his mouth.

Qiao'er hurriedly handed over a silk scarf and pulled it away.

"Master!"

"Look at you!" Lizhan put the silk scarf on his nose, "Whew! ”

"Poof......

"Forcefully exhale!"

"Poof! Burst! ”

When the kitten saw Lizhan, he happily climbed up along Miaomiao's little coat and jumped into Lizhan's arms.

Lizhan threw the silk into the basket with his hand, brushing the hair on the kitten's body, and his expression was a little serious. "How many times have I told you, it's cold, don't go out and walk around."

Mrs. Kangning said the same. But why? The coat is clipped with a small jacket, and I don't pull it cold at all when I wear gloves! ”

He asked why......

Recently, two maidservants in the palace were infected with the plague and were secretly executed by Gu Fuwei in the back garden, and after three days and three nights, she could still smell the smell of burnt skin and flesh when she passed through the alley.

Lizhan always faintly felt in his heart that the colder it was, the more severe the disease seemed to be.

But...... Or maybe it's just an illusion.

"You just listen to Master's words, play less time outside, and don't lack pounds or meat. When I returned to the capital in the future, spring began, and the time was good, so I could play how I wanted. The premise is to read the book well. ”

"Then when are we going back to the capital?" He tilted his little head and looked serious, "I want to be on fire, I want to be in charge of Sun, and Steward Sun said that he will take me to see the headlight festival during the New Year!" ”

Qiao'er and Lizhan glanced at each other, and they both sighed silently in their hearts.

Steward Sun never replied, and whenever he mentioned this matter in front of Gu Fuwei, he could always be vague for various reasons, telling her not to ask more.

And regardless of whether you can return to the capital for the Chinese New Year this year, even if you go back to the capital, so many people have died in the city, and the money is used for disaster relief, where can you still get money from the treasury to hold any lantern festival.

"The headlight will also buy me a Qiaoxian lantern, if I can guess the lantern riddle, I can go to the West Chamber's courtyard to exchange crystal persimmons to eat!"

He snorted greedily.

"You know all day long about pestering this and that, there are people in Steward Sun's family, waiting for the New Year's lantern festival, don't accompany your family to be lively, what are you doing around you, a little white-eyed wolf? If you want to see, I will accompany you with your sister Qiao'er. ”

"That's good!"

Miao Miao doesn't care who accompanies him, in short, he is happy that someone is willing to buy him Qiaoxian lanterns.

With a stretch of his hand, he jumped on the high jade lotus chair, pulled out of the bulging sleeve, and took out a talisman for a long time.

"His Highness sent someone to the master."

"What is this?" Lizhan took it curiously and looked at it.

A talisman of Chijin is engraved with the words "Qishui Wangting", and there is a row of incomprehensible bean sprouts under the words, which is the language of the Western Regions, and it probably means this.

"This is a sign out of the palace?" Leaving the lamp, he remembered that he had asked Gu Fuwei for a sign to leave the palace.

After soaking for a long time, Gu Fuwei finally agreed to her.

With this sign, she can go to the Otsuki Temple, which is rumored to be holding the plague patient, so she has been looking forward to the day when the talisman is made.

Miao Miao nodded like pounding garlic, "Your Highness also explained a sentence, let the master go out to be extremely careful, don't get too close to those patients." ”

……

Slightly constricted from the lamp.

I don't know when Gu Fuwei, who cherishes words like gold, has also become a chattering woman who repeats three times and four times.

"Master, can you take me with you when you leave the palace? I'll heal too! ”

Lizhan was happy in his heart, thinking about the way around, in fact, Miao Miao had met several patients, so he especially agreed.

"Okay, you go and ask Sister Qiao'er to find you a thick face towel, and when you get to the Great Moon Temple, don't stay away from the patient, can you remember?"

"Uh-huh!"

Lizhan called Amu, and the four of them picked up the outfits by themselves, and then took the gold medal and left the palace.

Sure enough, this token is extremely easy to use, you don't need to say anything, just show the gold medal brightly, and the weapon will be collected back in an instant.

It was snowing heavily in the city, but there were still a lot of people on the streets, and all kinds of businessmen were shouting and selling all over the street.

Lizhan was still wearing the dress of the Heavenly Maiden, and she was easily recognized by passers-by, who kept saluting her, and watched her away respectfully.

Even though the eyes of the people around them were like torches, Qiao'er and Miao Miao seemed to have become accustomed to it all the way, and they were three meters away, and they were not affected at all by what they wanted to shop.

Until, through Amu inquiring all the way, the four of them finally arrived at the Great Moon Temple.

The people of the Western Regions respect Buddha, and the Dayue Temple is the most famous temple in the Western Regions.

It is particularly quiet by the corner of the city, and the temple is located in this golden nest, which has also been built by the locals in a very grand manner.

I saw that on the plaque on the third floor, I had to lift my chin to see the three dignified and steady golden characters - "Dayue Temple".

On both sides of the gate, there are two long rows of bronze prayer wheels, which look quite mysterious and solemn.

"Wow, what a big temple!"

Miao Miao padded her toes, holding her chubby little paws high and slashed over a row of prayer wheels, and the prayer wheels spun around with a bang.

"That's a lot of rattles!"

Amu frowned: "This is the prayer wheel, which is used for blessings." ”

"Miao Miao, don't mess with other people's things." Lizhan said.

Miao Miao came over and cowardly hooked one of her fingers.

Buddhism in the Western Regions is different from that in the Central Plains, and this prayer wheel, she has seen it for the first time, and it is very rare.

Standing in front of the temple, Lizhan looked around, and soon noticed that there was something strange here.

Strange, since it is the first temple in the Western Regions, why is the temple door closed in broad daylight? The surroundings are deserted, no one has the intention of worship, I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that others pass by here, and they are deliberately far away, as if they are deliberately avoiding something.

Is it because this temple is inhabited by plague patients?

But such a large temple, with only 60 sick people, is separated in one place, and the Buddhist hall can welcome pilgrims as usual.

Don't the people of the Western Regions believe in the Buddha? There is a huge Qishui, and even a temple is not opened, so those who believe in Buddhism will not feel uncomfortable in their hearts?

"Do you know what's going on?" Lizhan turned his head and asked Amu.

Amu shook his head.

Lizhan had to carry his skirt by himself, walked up the stone steps step by step, held the polished door knocker, and gently buckled it three times.

"Anyone?"

No one answered.

Leave the lamp and buckle three times.

"Anyone?"

It was a long time before the sound of slow footsteps could be heard inside the door.

"Crunch ......"

The door slowly opened a crack, and there was a little novice standing in the crack, with a round head and an alert light in his eyes, that is, the body was bone, so thin that it made people feel distressed.

He looked at the few people outside the door for a long time, as if he didn't know who Lizhan was, and he was about to close the door after a while.

Fortunately, Amu pulled the door bolt, used the Western Regions to talk a few words, and then lit up the red gold talisman.

The little novice looked at it for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, his hands folded, and he bowed his head and said, "Amitabha." ”
