CHAPTER XVIII
Recently, Shi Niang said that her right eyelid was beating badly, and she wanted me to accompany her to the Great Ci'en Temple to burn incense. As soon as I thought that I could meet Mu Xin, I readily agreed.
This is my first time going to the Great Grace Temple. From the foot of the mountain to the halfway point of the mountain, there is not even a small shop to stop at. The trees are lush, the air that has just rained is unusually fresh, and the mountain spring water hits the small stones at the bottom of the stream, making a "dinglingdang" sound.
When we walked up the winding mountain road, we saw her squatting next to the mountain spring to wash clothes.
At that time, against the sun, she was wearing a plain white robe and a hat. He looked at me calmly. I didn't know how to speak.
"Muxin!"
"Here we are." Her tone was so flat that I was a little surprised.
When the teacher saw that we knew each other, she said to wait for me on the mountain.
I sat down next to the big rock and waited for her to do the laundry.
"Mu Mingxiao has been looking for you."
"I know."
"What's so hard to get by, why are you here?"
"Everything in the world is too painful, and only here can I be liberated."
I saw that her face suddenly turned pale, so I didn't say anything more. I walked with her to the monastery with my clothes in my arms.
If I didn't mention Mu Mingxiao, her calm appearance would really seem to be let go.
I spent a while with her in the wing room and told her about my father. I cried, and so did she.
She reassured me that it would always pass. Before leaving, he told me to stay away from Li Yan. However, I still don't take this to heart.
At dusk, when my sister and I left, I met Mu Mingxiao. He sat crookedly on a large pine tree outside the temple gate with a sword in his hand. His eyes remained motionless as he stared at the large bell not far away.
As soon as we walked to the foot of the mountain, Li Yan came to pick us up. He was dressed in purple that day, and he was so charming in the light of the torches that I couldn't take my eyes off it.
I helped my sister to get into the carriage, and I rode forward slowly with Li Yan. The servants were holding torches in front of them, and the fireflies in the mountains were shining towards us like stars.
"Fireflies!"
"Do you want to catch a few and raise them?"
"When I was a child, my brother and I always went to the back mountains to catch a lot of money and came back to play in a tent, and then when it was dawn, they were crawling densely on my bed, body, and face, and I am still scared when I think about it."
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be so cowardly. I remember that you were a ruthless character when you were a child, digging out bird eggs and catching snakes, and you were still afraid of these little bugs. ”
"People, there are always things to be afraid of. By the way, isn't Mu Mingxiao going back? ”
"He. This is the norm. ”
"No wonder I haven't seen him in a long time. It turns out that he is guarding here every day. Fate can play tricks on people. ”
At this time, I was even glad in my heart, glad that Li Yan and I were still fine.
However, it didn't take long for our peaceful life to be disrupted.
