Outside the gate of the courtyard, he leaned on the doorpost with his back to the doorpost, landed on one leg, held a scroll of scriptures in his hand, raised his head slightly, thin eyes and thin lips, and wore a corset white gauze robe.

Yan Ziyue followed Master Wuliang over, and when she saw Yan Li, she trotted all the way over to ask for a hug.

Yan Li picked up Yan Ziyue and held it in her arms with one hand, letting her dirty little hands rub a stain on her chest.

"Master Immeasurable, long time gone"! His thin lips opened lightly, and the corners of his mouth smiled.

"High priest, don't come unharmed"? Master Immeasurable clasped his hands together and smiled.

"Master Immeasurable, please", Yan Li hugged Yan Ziyue and stood sideways by the door.

Master Immeasurable nodded, raised his leg and entered the courtyard. He immediately followed in.

"Master Immeasurable", Yun Ying came over, saluted Master Immeasurable, and looked at Zhan Li.

Meng Niang had already put the food on the table, and when she saw Master Wuliang coming, she hurriedly added another pair of dishes and chopsticks.

Yan Li put Yan Ziyue down gently, waved his hand and said, "Master, please sit."

"Thank you, the poor monk is bothered", Master Wuliang looked at everyone with a smile, sat down on the nearby round stool, and saw that none of them sat down, so he said: "You all sit down, it's not that you are poor here, and there is a lot of inconvenience."

"Master, if you are serious, how can it be inconvenient, we hope that the master can come often", Yu Li explained to Master Wuliang while motioning for most of them to sit down.

Yan Ziyue and Nangong Yu were children after all, so they hurriedly sat down and started to eat.

"Yue'er, pardon'er... Why are you so unruly", Meng Niang said softly.

"Aunt Meng... There are no outsiders, it doesn't matter", Yan Ziyue ate a piece of lotus root, said with a smile, and specially touched Nangong Yu, Nangong Yu understood, and nodded desperately with rice balls in his mouth.

Yan Li looked at Yan Ziyue's doting feelings, and only felt that she had a frank temperament, but she was not formal, a light smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and she sandwiched some dishes for Master Wuliang: "Master, please use."

Meng Niang saw that Zhan Li and Master Wuliang didn't care, and they had already eaten by themselves, so she didn't say anything more, got up and brought out a bowl of soup from the kitchen.

After this meal, I don't know if it was because the dishes were not enough to eat, or because everyone insisted on saving and not wasting, all the plates and bowls were empty, Meng Niang happily cleaned up, and Yan Ziyue and Nangong Yu helped.

"High priest, the moonlight is good tonight, I don't know if I can accompany you", Master Wuliang got up and came to the small courtyard, looked up at the bright moon, and smiled at Yan Lidao.

"Of course... Master Wuliang, please", as soon as he heard it, he knew that there was something to discuss.

The two walked out of the courtyard and walked leisurely in the back garden of the Temple of the Afterlife.

"Master Immeasurable, if you have something, you might as well say it directly."

"Hehe, the high priest is really understanding, and the poor monk said bluntly, the poor monk intends to stay in the temple for five years."

"What"? Yan Li was stunned for a moment, but he felt that since Master Wuliang was Xiao Yue'er's master, it was understandable to let Xiao Yue'er practice in the temple, but it was only five years long, and it was really unacceptable.

"Master, isn't it the same if I send Xiao Yue'er here for meditation every year?"

"High priest, do you know, the reason why I left the moon girl to practice in this temple for five years, in addition to letting her practice martial arts, there is another Heart Sutra I want to teach her, and this Heart Sutra pays attention to step by step, I have passed on her three volumes, but from the third volume onwards, someone needs to be guided all the time, not stopped."

"Heart Sutra, this is a thing, the master said that he has taught her three volumes, this..."? He looked puzzled.

"The Heart Sutra can help her control her divine power, and the high priest should be able to understand it."

"This...". Of course, Zhan Li knew that since the last time he had a conversation with Master Wuliang, he knew that Master Wuliang was indeed a master of enlightenment, and he had some understanding of the foreshadowings he saw, and it was understandable to teach Xiao Yue'er the Heart Sutra, but Xiao Yue'er had something he didn't know, which made people feel uneasy.

"Now, the moon girl has learned the third volume, and after the third volume, it is mostly the mental method, guiding people's divine sense, with a slight deviation, one thought becomes a Buddha and one thought becomes a demon", Master Wuliang said very seriously, his eyes staring at Zhan Li.

Yan Li was a little stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but he just looked at the immeasurable master, and his heart was full of entanglement.

"In five years, if nothing happens, with the qualifications of the moon girl, you can learn the seventh volume, and there are only two volumes left, and when the time comes, it doesn't hurt to practice again", Master Wuliang tried his best to persuade Zhan Li.

Zhan Li was silent, but after the separation of January, I have felt the pain of missing every time, and I just want to be able to see Xiao Yue'er every day, and my heart is steady, but five years is a long time.

"High Priest, you might as well think about it, it's only a day's journey to seal the phoenix in the past life", Master Wuliang saw the reluctance in his eyes, and comforted.

Yan Li thought for a while, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while, as if making this decision was like cutting the flesh of his heart, it was extremely uncomfortable, such a feeling, Tan Li was due to his commitment to Yan Moyu.

"Yu Li thanked the master for Xiao Yue'er first, this matter will be decided another day, I will send the master back first."

"High Priest Xie is kind, no need, the poor monks are familiar with all of them in this temple", Master Wuliang still looked smiling.

"Then I left first...", said the ten salutes.

"Well, go for it".

When he heard this, he turned around and walked back, thinking all the way, and he didn't know how to walk back, and when he saw that the light in Yan Ziyue's house was still on, he knocked on the door.

"The High Priest... You're back", Meng Niang opened the door and said.

"Hmm... What about Xiao Yue'er"?

"Here...", Meng Niang turned sideways and looked at the inner room.

"Father-in-law...", Yan Ziyue ran out wearing a pale pink obscene clothes.

He frowned slightly, not knowing what to say.

Meng Niang realized something, and hurriedly hugged Yan Ziyue back.

Nangong Yu, who followed out, stood in place, didn't know what the situation was, looked at Yan Li at the door, and then looked at Yan Ziyue who was carried into the back room.

"Yu'er...", Yu Li called out when he saw Nangong Yu, thinking about how Nangong Yu was in Xiao Yue'er's room, couldn't it be that this guy has been sleeping here these days, and suddenly felt that it should be wrong, but for these two such young children, he couldn't speak.

Meng Niang walked out of the inner room, saw Nangong Pardon, looked at Yu Li again, and noticed something, so she said to Nangong Pardon: "Pardon, why don't you go back to sleep with the high priest tonight"?

"Why, haven't I always slept with Yue'er"? Nangong Yu was really puzzled, why he was suddenly not allowed to sleep here today.

"This...", Meng Niang wanted to explain, but because of the presence of the detached person, it was difficult to say anything.

Nangong Yu looked at Meng Niang, and then at Yan Li standing at the door in a daze, and suddenly seemed to understand a little bit, "Okay, then I'll go and accompany the high priest, um... I'll talk to Yue'er first."

Nangong Yu ran back to the back room and said to Yan Ziyue: "Yue'er, the high priest has no one to accompany him, I will accompany him first today."

"Oh, let's go...", Yan Ziyue blurted out, and she didn't notice the sense of loss in Nangong Yu's eyes when she said this, but she suddenly felt that her father-in-law would be lonely, she had never thought about it.

"Nangong pardon, wait for me...", Yan Ziyue jumped out of bed and ran out barefoot.

As soon as Nangong Yu came out, he saw Yan Ziyue running over, and before he could react, he saw that Yan Ziyue had already run to Yan Li's feet, stood on tiptoe, and grabbed Yan Li's clothes with a pair of small hands.

Seeing that Yan Ziyue was still barefoot, he didn't think about anything else, so he picked her up and said, "Xiao Yue'er, why did you run out, still barefoot."

"Hehe...", Yan Ziyue grinned and said: "Father-in-law, are you lonely, I'll accompany you."

Yan Li was stunned by Yan Ziyue's question, and then smiled and said, "Xiao Yue'er, do you know what loneliness is?"

"Hmm..."Of course Yan Ziyue understands, but she doesn't know how to express it in order to match her identity.

Yan Li looked at Yan Ziyue's hard thinking, and when she didn't know, she smiled lightly, and something soft in her heart was touched.

"Anyway, I won't be lonely with you", Yan Ziyue looked serious.

"Yue'er... It's too late, it's time to sleep", Meng Niang stretched out her hand to take Yan Ziyue.

"No, I want to accompany my father-in-law", Yan Ziyue wrapped a pair of small arms around Yan Li's neck.

"Meng Niang, otherwise, let Xiao Yue'er be with me tonight", Yan Li looked at Yan Ziyue, and he couldn't bear it.

"It's... How can I do it", Meng Niang's voice became smaller and quieter, and she always felt that it was inappropriate, and it was not easy to say it directly.

Yan Li patted Yan Ziyue's back with one hand, and walked towards his house with a happy expression.

"Hmph... What's the matter", Nangong Yu shook his head angrily and went to the back room.

Meng Niang looked at Nangong Yu's funny look, followed up, and saw that he had already laid down on the bed and pretended to be asleep, so she deliberately asked: "Why is Yu'er angry?"

"Nothing", Nangong Yu replied with his eyes closed.

Meng Niang secretly smiled and said, "Yes, you see that your little face is red with anger."

"How can there be", Nangong sat up forgively, and when she saw Meng Niang's sneering smile, she knew that she had been fooled, so she lay down again angrily, and said after a while: "Aunt Meng, why can't I sleep with Yue'er?"

Aunt Meng didn't expect Nangong Yu to ask this question, so she asked, "You... Why does Yu'er think so"?

"Hmph... Don't fool me, I think that's what the high priest means, I can't, can he", Nangong Yu looked at Meng Niang with doubts.

Meng Niang wanted to talk to Nangong Yu about the difference between men and women, but now she didn't know what to say, so she had to say: "Yu'er, go to sleep first."

Nangong pardoned Meng Niang and avoided answering, nor did she entangle, so she rolled aside and fell asleep.

Yan Ziyue crawled around on the bed and found the most comfortable position to sleep.

After washing up, I saw Yan Ziyue, who was already sleeping sweetly, and the collar of her dirty clothes had slipped to her shoulders, revealing her thin collarbone. Yan Li stretched out her hand to pull the neckline for Yan Ziyue, but as soon as her hand touched her delicate skin, a trace of heat passed up her fingers, hitting the soft place in her heart, and immediately retracted her hand, settled down, and pulled the brocade quilt on the bed to cover Yan Ziyue.

I'm used to sleeping alone, but I really don't want to have such a little guy sleep together, why do you feel so awkward? What makes Yan Li even more helpless is that this little guy is not honest, he still rolls in circles when he sleeps, he will lie on his stomach for a while, he will roll on his side, he will roll around left for a while, and he will roll around right for a while.

Zhan Li quietly looked at Yan Ziyue's slightly red face, a strand of messy black hair covering her ears, closed eyes, delicate nose, pink mouth, slightly pointed small chin, how to look at it and how to like it, she couldn't help but reach out and stroke Xiao Yue'er's hair, which made her instinctively raise her little hand and scratch it, and sleep more peacefully in her gentle breathing. I don't know how long I watched it, until drowsiness hit, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
