Childe Kiyoshi's party rested under the tree for a while, and then they continued towards the summit of Eagle Mountain.

Eagle Mountain is not very high, and the mountain road is not steep, but the scenery is beautiful.

The mountains are beautifully wooded and the springs are murmuring. Wildflowers are everywhere, exuding a faint fragrance.

"Big brother! There's a temple over there. Let's go and rest! Ai Zishen stood on the side of the road and looked at the sweat on Gongziqing's forehead.

"Good!" Childe Qingqian took out a towel and wiped his sweat.

"Good thing the old man didn't know about it! Otherwise, he wouldn't have to nag for a long time? Ai Zishen suddenly thought of Guo Zizheng, the old lady doctor of the Tai Hospital.

"Mrs. Guo has superb medical skills and is upright! Even my imperial brother respects him for three points, but you call him an old man, there is really you! Murong Xue looked displeased.

"He still wants to burn down Dr. Guo's hospital?" Childe Qingqian approached.

"Have you discussed it and want to be angry with me!" Ai Zishen pointed at Murong Xue and said angrily.

"I'm telling you, learn to respect others!" Murong Xue ignored Ai Zishen and went straight into the temple.

"Respect?" A puzzled look appeared on Ai Zishen's face.

"That's it! It's all brothers, and nothing else! Gongzi Qingqian patted Ai Zishen on the shoulder and entered the temple.

"Ai Gongzi! Please! Liu Tao stood beside Ai Zishen and said.

"It's still your appetite for me!" Ai Zishen put his arm around Liu Tao's shoulders and entered the temple together.

The temple is not big, with only two monks. When they saw the pilgrims coming, they greeted them warmly.

Qin Ling gave the sesame oil money, and then she worshipped the Buddha devoutly. Childe Qingqian asked about the situation in the presiding mountain.

The host told Gongzi Qingqian that although this mountain is not high, it stretches for thousands of miles, and no one has reached the end.

"We're just going around in front of us, and we'll be back in two days!" Murong Xue looked at the birds in the sky and said.

"Why aren't there so many people coming to the mountains?" Childe Qingqian felt that the host's words were not finished.

"Amitabha! A strange thing happened a few years ago, so there were a lot fewer tourists. The presiding officer clasped his hands together and said something in his mouth.

"What happened?" Ai Zishen walked up to the host and asked.

"It's not just that there was a fire in the temple, and the pilgrims living in it were burned to death! Even the monks in the temple were killed at the same time! Murong Xue lowered her head and kicked a raised stone with her foot.

"Amitabha! Don't mention the old past! The presiding officer was in a state of sorrow.

"Why are you alive?" Ai Zishen grabbed the host's arm and asked.

"Donor! We came back to the temple three years ago! This temple was built with the money we got when we traveled. The little monk behind the presiding monk said.

Ai Zishen let go of his hand when he heard this. The host sighed and walked away.

"Has the government ever found out what's going on?" Gongzi Qingqian frowned and asked Murong Xue.

"It's all burned to the ground, and there's nothing left! The government didn't find out anything, and in the end it could only become an unsolved case! Murong Xue turned her head to look at the Buddha statue in the temple, and then said, "Let's go!" ”

After listening to this sad past, everyone's mood became depressed. No one wants to stay in the temple for long.

Everyone left the temple and continued to walk northwest. The scenery along the way was picturesque, but Gongzi Qingqian and the others were not interested.

"Childe! There's a family over there, so let's borrow it for tonight!" Liu Tao pointed to the curling flue in the distance.

Childe Qingqian looked up to see that it was not early, so he nodded. Everyone walked together to the house not far away.

"Anyone?" Murong Xue walked outside the fence and shouted.

"Come in!" An old woman stood at the door of the house and looked out at the road.

Everyone pushed the fence and walked into the courtyard. Childe looked at it lightly, and the old woman was actually blind.

"Auntie! We're here to play. It's getting late, I want to spend the night tonight, I don't know if it's convenient? Childe said lightly.

"If you don't have a humble house, stay there!" The old woman was very kind.

"Your eyes ......" Murong Xue saw that the old woman's eyes couldn't see them.

"Hey! The family is gone! It's just me and the old man! We always thought about them, so we stayed here. The tears are dry, and the eyes are gone! The old woman said and wiped her eyes.

Qin Ling also shed tears with her. Everyone's hearts are sour.

"Is there really nothing left of that fire?" Childe Qingqian frowned and looked at the old woman.

"Everything is burned!" The old woman fumbled and sat down on the bamboo chair in front of the door.

"What about the bones?" Childe Qingqian squatted beside the old man and asked.

"Nope! The fire burned for three days and three nights, and everything was reduced to nothing! The old woman's eyes were fixed in the direction of the temple. Her hollow eyes were unsettling.

"Do you have gold or silver jewelry on your family?" Childe Qingqian began to dig into the roots.

"Yes! My daughter-in-law wears a gold bracelet on her left wrist. The grandson wears a gold lock around his neck. The old woman muttered.

"Did you find it when you came?" Childe Qingqian continued to ask.

"Nope! Nothing! The old woman bowed her head sadly.

"Big brother! Don't ask! There will be no results. Murong Xue was sad and sad to see no one. She is strong on the outside, but she has a soft heart in her bones.

"This is not an accidental misfire!" Childe Qingqian stood up and said.

"So what? After many years, the past has become smoke! Ai Zishen finished speaking and walked to a vacant room.

The room was very clean, with only two beds. Ai Zishen lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

"O old woman! What do you see I've brought back for you? An old man with half-gray hair walked into the courtyard with meat and a string of red peppers.

"Old man! Someone is in the house! They're going to stay overnight at our house. The old woman staggered to her feet.

"It's rare for someone to come in so many years! I'm going to make you something to eat!" "The old man is a hospitable master.

"Uncle! I'm here to help you! Liu Tao followed the old man into the kitchen of his house.

"Young people! You're not from here! The old man put down the meat and red pepper in his hand and went to the water tank to scoop water and wash his hands.

"We're here to visit friends in Dawan!" Liu Tao casually said a reason.

"The mountains and water here are good, but this person's heart is separated by a layer of belly!" The old man began to make a fire.

Liu Tao brought Chai He and helped the old man look at the stove. The flames reflected Liu Tao's face.

"Young man! If my grandson were alive, he would be your age! The old man added water to the pot.

"It's just you two elders here, I think it's more convenient to live in the city." Liu Tao looked at the gray-haired old man and said.

"Who's to say it isn't? But our former neighbors were estranged for some reason. The child's mother couldn't stand this series of blows, and refused to go down the mountain no matter what. ”

"Why do they live in the temple?" Liu Tao felt that this was a little strange.

"It's all done by a new monk with strong spells in the temple! He said that everyone had to chant the sutra in the temple for three days before they could get something. I didn't expect them to go like that! The old man seemed to have been indifferent to the matter, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him.
