Just about to speak, he heard a low laugh from outside the window, accompanied by laughter, and the door was pushed open: "Don't ask, it was indeed me who ordered her." ”

The person who came was Li Ke.

He was dressed in moon-white clothes, with some dust on them, and his hair was slightly messy. Xiao Xiang's heart moved, could it be that Li Ke came from the southern suburbs? This Huichang Temple is in the west corner of Chang'an, and there are still 30 miles away from Chang'an. And the southern suburbs of Beiyun are more than 40 miles away from Chang'an, and he actually drove more than 70 miles?

That's more than 30 kilometers, and if you drive, you have to drive for an hour on the roads in the city. Not to mention this ancient time when the traffic was not developed, if you speed up, it will take two or three hours.

He actually ran away?

"How are you doing? Has the Gu poison flare-up again? Li Ke wrinkled his eyebrows, as if he was suppressing something.

Xiao Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted: "Uh...... It's okay," she lowered her voice, "the Gu poison thing is fake. Although he had some doubts about why Li Ke knew about this, he still told the truth to make him feel relieved.

"Fake?" Li Ke repeated in some surprise, and then a smile appeared, "It's good to be fake." You don't have to be close, even if you eat two more days of white rice, it will make people feel happy. ”

Xiao Xiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, these people have really lived in intrigue for a long time, he only said this sentence, he immediately sorted out the ins and outs, I don't know if it's fortunate or unlucky?

"If I really don't solve it, I'll kill the debater." Li Ke seemed to be half-joking, but his words were full of ruthlessness. Xiao Xiang couldn't help but be shocked, for the killing intent he inadvertently revealed.

He wants to kill the debater? Why?

Her face couldn't help showing a hint of panic, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Xie Qing understands, Brother Ke, don't say murder at every turn, this is not in line with your image." ”

Li Ke regained his usual gentleness and elegance at this time, and stepped forward to take her hand: "Didn't you say you were hungry before?" I'll take you to eat vegetarian food at Huichang Temple. ”

Xiao Xiang only felt hungry in his stomach at this time, and even a little dizzy, so he didn't say much, and let Li Ke take him forward.

The scale of Huichang Temple is grand, and it is a special courtyard for the royal family and nobles, and it is not the same as the monks. Although there are also special people to cook food and other things, what Li Ke wants to take Xiao Xiang to is not the restaurant in the courtyard, but the vegetarian hall open to pilgrims.

Sutang is on the right side of Huichang Temple and is a small three-story building. Look at the building is a typical temple flow, the side is full of trees, but there are no flowers and plants, only a few osmanthus are planted on the side of the building, and a few residual lotus in the pond in front of it are half hanging from the stem, showing a bit of depression. The aroma of cinnamon in the air was mixed with sandalwood, and it smelled a little messy in his nose, Xiao Xiang frowned slightly, in such a smell, I am afraid that whatever I eat will lose the taste.

Li Ke saw her wrinkling his eyebrows, and couldn't help laughing: "You'll know when you go in." ”

Xiao Xiang was a little surprised in his heart, could Li Ke know what he was thinking in his heart? couldn't help but look at Li Ke twice, but saw Li Ke with a smile between his eyebrows, and slowly spoke: "I know that you have always had very high requirements for food, but you also have to believe me, what I said is a good place, it must be good." ”

His words were extremely confident, as if he was reflecting something.

Xiao Xiang nodded, unwilling to delve into the meaning behind these words, and he didn't have the strength to delve into it right now, filling his stomach was the most important thing, so he followed Li Ke into the small building.

As Li Ke said, in this small building, there is no trace of messy smell, and the air is as pure as water.

I really don't know how Huichang Temple did it, it is very difficult to isolate the smell, and it is not easy to do it in modern times, let alone in ancient times when science and technology were not developed.

She couldn't help but look left and right curiously, but was surprised to find that in the small building, except for the door that came in before, all the doors and windows were tightly closed. But even so, it is impossible to have no smell at all, there must be some mystery.

But before he thought about it, he saw someone step forward and saluted Li Ke: "Gongzi Ke has been in the future for a long time, and the poor monk still thinks that the vegetarian food in Huichang Temple is bad for taste. ”

Xiao Xiang raised his eyebrows and looked at it, and saw that the man was wearing a monk's robe, but it was not as dusty as the other monks, but it was a little more human. Li Ke smiled and quipped: "Where, if the vegetarian food in Huichang Temple is bad for taste, I'm afraid Ke will have nowhere to find such a delicacy." ”

Between the two answers, they were very familiar, as if they were old acquaintances.

"Very good," the monk laughed, "and I want to have a few more drinks today." After that, he took the two of them inside, Xiao Xiang followed Li Ke slowly, and looked all the way, there were many gorgeously dressed people pushing cups and changing lamps.

The monk took the two to a table, sat them down, and without asking too much, he took it upon himself to order food for them. Li Ke didn't even object, but just asked him to add osmanthus brewing.

Xiao Xiang wanted to ask questions, but when he saw the monk talking to another pilgrim at the door, he understood that this monk was afraid that he had a very low status in Huichang Temple, so he was assigned here to run the hall.

I can't help but be a little funny.

It seems that no matter where you are, power is always important, and even this pure place of Buddhism cannot escape from the mundane.

Looking around, Xiao Xiang found that the place where he was sitting with Li Ke was actually a different place. It's almost a private room. This place is on the second floor, and the table is set up next to the window, and you can see the water in the lake in front of the building. From this point of view, the previous remnants of the lotus are arranged in a regular manner, forming a Buddhist "swastika".

It can only be seen from a high place, and it seems that this designer is indeed ingenious.

The first floor is also different from the opening of the first floor, where the table spacing is very large, and there are only ten tables on the entire second floor, each of which is hung with a bamboo curtain, and you have to open the curtain to enter and exit. Her eyes fell on the wall behind her, and she saw that there was a device similar to a ventilation fan, a fan made of bamboo, which was spinning at high speed at the moment.

Xiao Xiang was taken aback, could it be that in this era, apart from himself, there are souls that have crossed over from modern times? She couldn't help but take a step forward and take a closer look, but the fan was driven by water, and dozens of waterwheels were set up by the lake downstairs, and the waterwheels drove the fans to replace the air in the building.

Next to the fan was a silver openwork incense burner, and the furnace was black and full of charcoal. With the exhaust and the odor-absorbing charcoal, it's no wonder that there is no smell in this building.

She couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of the ancients, and turned around again to look at the furnishings in the private room.
