Chapter 890: Return
The sunlight shines through the window into the Buddhist hall, and Master Tianguang sits in the sunlight, preaching the scriptures without hurry, and the little monk under the seat listens very seriously.
Until someone stood outside the window to block the daylight shining into the window, the light on the Tianguang master dimmed, and a little monk who couldn't sit still glanced at the person standing outside the window to cut off the daylight: Mr. Pei. In fact, he is the only one in the temple who has the courage to disturb Master Tianguang's lectures.
Mr. Pei didn't have to wait long, because today's morning class ended early.
When the little monks walked out of the Buddhist hall, Pei Zongzhi walked in, and then turned around and closed the door of the Buddhist hall.
Seeing that he was so "caring", Master Tianguang sneered: "Sneaky, either a traitor or a thief, what do you want to do?" ”
"Resign." Pei Zongzhi crushed the crumpled note in his hand and said, "I'll let you see how I cured her." ”
The Celestial Master glanced at the shattered pieces of paper and vaguely spelled out two words from them: Leave.
"Then I'll wait to see your magic come back to life." Master Tianguang's voice was calm, "By the way, there is news from the capital, Yang Gong's eyes are out of sight, you can help treat it together!" ”
Pei Zongzhi said: "I can't cure this." ”
"You can even cure the problem that Sun Gong is helpless, why can't Yang Gong's eye disease be cured?" Master Skylight scoffed.
Pei Zongzhi didn't answer him, just looked at him and said, "Do you have anything you want me to do?" ”
Actually asked this? The mocking look on Master Tianguang's face froze, and after a while, he waved his hand angrily to drive people away: "What else can you do?" Let's go! ”
Pei Zongzhi looked at him for a moment, then suddenly bent his knees and knelt down.
This move...... The surprise on Master Tianguang's face was even worse, although the two were masters and apprentices, but from beginning to end, the pair of masters and apprentices were more like shaved monkeys with hot heads, the children he carried, he pressed his head to teach, Pei Zongzhi just silently accepted it from beginning to end.
Bowing to this kind of red tape on weekdays, he knew that his apprentice was in a special situation, so he never asked for it, kneeling was not unprecedented, but it was more like doing a kind of task rule, and it was the first time that he had bowed suddenly like this.
The light in the Celestial Light Master's eyes gradually dimmed, and he looked at him with a complicated expression.
He kowtowed, then sat down: "I know you're protecting me......"
Master Tianguang's heart was stagnant, and he suddenly gave birth to a different emotion: after raising it for so long, it was not in vain.
"I have you, and I have the actual temple to protect me, so I live comfortably; She has no one to protect her, so she has a hard time every step of the way. Pei Zongzhi, "Seeing her walking on thin ice, I know that I am at ease." So this kneeling is to thank you for your kindness, but I am not a child anymore, and I don't have a child as old as me. So, there is something you have to say. ”
There was some heat in his eyes, and Master Tianguang closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he was angry and reprimanded: "Who dares to be disrespectful to the teacher?" ”
Pei Zongzhi: "The two guests who came in the middle of the night that day ......"
"Get out!"
Pei Zongzhi looked at him for a moment, and when he saw that he really stopped talking, he stood up, gave a silent salute, and walked out.
……
It's about to enter May, and the weather in Chang'an City is getting hotter and hotter, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate wear official hats and stand in the shade by the gate to inspect the pedestrians entering the city. Outside the city, a caravan passing near Chang'an City for a short rest lined up and prepared to enter the city.
The people who live on the outskirts of Chang'an City and go in and out of the city every day wipe their sweat and chat while watching the long procession.
“…… It's been a long time since it's rained......"
“…… What's going on......"
“…… It's not even the hottest time, what if it gets hotter again......"
“…… Isn't God angry......"
……
When the officers and soldiers patrolling by the city gate heard the noise here, they immediately reprimanded.
"Don't make a lot of noise!"
"Spread out!"
Sitting at the back of the caravan and preparing to enter the city, he poked his head out of the carriage and looked at it for a moment, then retracted it.
"It's hot!" Song Er pulled up the two corners of his robe and fanned inward, "Why is Chang'an City so hot?" ”
Sister-in-law Song on the opposite side glared at him: "The heart is calm and naturally cool." ”
"Only the dead are calm!" Song Er defended and lowered his head to wipe his sweat.
Zhang Ning wiped the sweat on his face with a wet towel, and opened his mouth with a silent face holding the mud altar in the corner: "Isn't Zhang Xiaogongzi good?" ”
Everyone looked over, and sure enough, they saw him sitting quietly beside him, and although his face was sweating, he was much better than them.
Song Er sighed twice and said with emotion: "That's self-cultivation, we can't learn it." After a pause, he looked at the endless line and muttered, "I don't know how long it will take to queue......
This row lasted from morning until the sun was about to set, and at noon they were only fed with dry food, but at last they entered the city before the gates were closed.
As the sun sets, the heat of the day is gone, and the cabin is much cooler.
The carriage walked on the road without hurrying, the streets were scattered with people returning home, the lanterns outside the teahouses and restaurants on both sides had been hung up, and the Chang'an Night Market was about to start.
Although it is not yet the peak of the night market, it can be seen just by looking at the pedestrians and the smoke of the wine shops and the beauties of the land of wind and moon.
This is not the first time he has returned to Chang'an, but Zhang Ning still couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Jingshi is really a good place!" ”
The carriage walked through the bustling Huangtian Road, and finally stopped at the Tianshi Road crossing, and when Li San, who was driving the car outside, shouted Mr. Pei, several people got out of the carriage.
Pei Zongzhi has been waiting for a long time.
After a few greetings, Pei Zongzhi only nodded slightly, obviously not caring about these false courtesies, he just looked at the jar in Zhang Jie's hand and asked, "Did you bring something?" ”
"Brought." Zhang Xie handed him the jar that he had held all the way to him, his face was unsuitable for his age, and he bowed slightly, "There is Mr. Lao Pei." ”
He took the water and soil from the source of the Zhang family in Jinan all the way to Chang'an and handed it over to Mr. Pei, and then it was up to Mr. Pei.
Pei Zongzhi nodded, took the jar and held it in his hand, wanting to leave, but looking at them, he was silent for a moment, a little hesitant: "I have something urgent to do now...... You can stay here. ”
The urgency was in his hands.
Zhang Xie didn't wait for everyone to speak, then nodded and saluted Pei Zongzhi: "Mr. Pei, let's go, let's take a walk around here first, and we'll talk about it when you come back." ”
Pei Zongzhi handed him the key to the door lock, turned around and left.
It's still the same crisp, everyone's hearts said, and then followed Zhang Xie and stepped into Pei Yuan, behind Pei Yuan's door, the scene and stone were almost unchanged from when they left.
Seeing this, Zhang Ning couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Mr. Pei is a person who misses the old. ”
Song Er thought about Pei Zongzhi's behavior of not even bothering to say a word of nonsense, and said, "Maybe it's just lazy." ”
Everyone: "......"
"That's it, what about being lazy? It's good that the business doesn't fall behind. Zhang Ning said with a hook of his hand and hooked Zhang Jie's neck, "I was already hungry when I was walking on the road." This Chang'an rice is expensive, before Zhang finds a job, he has to save some flowers, Zhang Xiaogongzi has a treat! ”
"You're embarrassed to bully a child!" Mrs. Li on the side couldn't help it, gave him a blank look, and pulled Zhang Xie into her arms to make a protective gesture.
With an empty hand, Zhang Ning didn't care, and only smiled at Zhang Xie with a calm face: "Zhang Xiaogongzi is not a child......
"He's not qualified to be a kid either."
