Chapter 179
Wei Chicai didn't listen to Wei Zhengsheng's words.
In his opinion, it was they who single-handedly broke him up and Cheng Rao.
Seeing that Wei Chi didn't speak, Wei Zhengsheng said again: "Cheng Rao, that girl doesn't like you, you still have to be obsessed with when, do you really have to wait until I die before you can wake up?" β
Yu Chi still didn't speak.
Wei Zhengsheng said again: "Think about it yourself and see if what I said makes sense, even if she is with you, she doesn't really like you, do you think this kind of day is what you want?" β
"Yes." Wei Chi responded categorically, "I just want to be with her." β
Wei Zhengsheng was so angry that Wei Chi coughed, he looked obsessed...... It's really good to be angry!
He has thought of all the ways he can think of, and he has approached Huang Ping several times before because of this matter, but in fact, he is also in a hurry to go to the doctor.
Wei Zhengsheng knew very well in his heart that if this matter was to be solved, the key point was still here in Wei Chi, if he couldn't think about it himself, it would be useless to persuade anyone.
**
Not long after sending a message to Cheng Rao last night, Huang Ping fell asleep.
After waking up the next morning, I habitually looked at my phone and did not receive any reply from Cheng Rao.
Huang Ping sighed lightly, she knew that Cheng Rao was determined not to have anything to do with Yu Chi.
Although she sympathized with Wei Chi, she couldn't say much.
Huang Ping raised her hand and moved her fingers, transferred 50,000 yuan to Cheng Rao, and then wrote a sentence: Happy birthday, daughter.
After transferring the account and sending the message, Huang Ping went to wash.
While eating downstairs, Huang Ping received a call from Qiao Ruzhang and learned about Wei Chi's car accident.
Qiao Ruzhang said that Yu Chi was in a car accident last night, and Huang Ping immediately thought of Yu Chi's expression last night......
Thinking about it like this, she blamed herself even more in her heart.
Huang Ping asked Qiao Ruzhang: "When are you going to see Yu Chi?" β
Qiao Ruzhang said: "I plan to go over at noon. β
Huang Ping said, "Let's go together." β
**
At one o'clock at noon, Huang Ping and Qiao Ruzhang came to the hospital together.
When the two of them came over, Wei Zhengsheng, Wei Junliao, and Ji Yuan were all in the ward.
Seeing Huang Ping coming, Ji Yuan was the first one who couldn't bear it.
Her attitude was not very friendly: "What are you doing here?" Wei Chi has nothing to do with your family for a long time. β
Ji Yuan is this kind of character, she can't hide things in her heart, and all her thoughts are written on her face.
Such a character can easily cause embarrassment.
Qiao Ruzhang was afraid that Huang Ping would mind, so he raised his hand and patted her shoulder to comfort her, then looked at Ji Yuan and said, "I heard that something happened to Yu Chi, come and take a look, there is no other meaning." β
"What about Cheng Rao? Didn't you come together? Wei Zhengsheng glanced at Wei Chi on the bed, and then turned his gaze to Huang Ping to ask her.
Wei Zhengsheng didn't know about Cheng Rao's trip to Jingshan Temple.
The reason why he asked this was to let Huang Ping remind Wei Chi of a fact-
Cheng Rao didn't care about him at all, even if she knew that something had happened to him, she wouldn't come over to see him.
Wei Zhengsheng still felt that Wei Chi was extremely proud in his heart, and according to his personality, this kind of blow would have to be given up sooner or later.
No matter what they said, they only used reality to remind him that he had woken up.
Huang Ping and Qiao Ruzhang are both smart people, so they naturally know the purpose of Wei Zhengsheng's question.
Huang Ping glanced at Wei Chi, and then said to Wei Zhengsheng: "I forgot to tell you, Cheng Rao has gone to Jingshan Temple last month. β
"Jingshan Temple?" Wei Zhengsheng asked, "What is she going to do there?" β
Qiao Ruzhang took over: "Rao Rao has experienced so many things, and now she has looked down on the world, and she is determined to go to Jingshan Temple to practice, she has already carried out a shaving ceremony last month, and now she is practicing with the master of Jingshan Temple." β
As soon as Qiao Ruzhang's words came out, Wei Zhengsheng, Wei Junliao and Ji Yuan were all stunned.
Cheng Rao...... Monks?
None of them expected this result.
The first to react was Wei Zhengsheng.
He smiled and said, "Yu Chi doesn't know about this yet, Yu Chi, look at it, the girls are already ......."
"I know." Wei Chi interrupted Wei Zhengsheng's words, "I don't care. β
"What don't you care about, Cheng Rao is a nun now, you are thinking about the nun, what can be the result?" Ji Yuan was really speechless.
Why didn't she know that Yu Chi was so dead-eyed?
"If she goes to be a nun, it means that she is determined to draw a line with you, don't you understand this? I have to stick it up, and Cheng Rao is not the only woman in the world......"
Ji Yuan's words are not very good.
When Wei Junliao heard this, he pinched her wrist and motioned her to say less with his eyes.
At the end, Wei Junliao explained to Huang Ping: "She speaks more directly, there is no malice, don't take it to heart." β
Huang Ping had heard Qiao Ruzhang talk about Ji Yuan's temperament before, so she didn't take her words to heart: "It's okay, I can understand." β
Speaking of this, Huang Ping looked at Wei Chi: "I have already said some things to Wei Chi, Wei Chi is a good boy, it is Cheng Rao's regret to miss him, I also hope that Wei Chi can come out as soon as possible, he deserves a better life." β
Huang Ping's words are not polite, they are really sincere.
β¦β¦β¦
Wei Chi sat on the hospital bed, listening to their words and words, and did not make a sound at all.
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
Huang Ping and Qiao Ruzhang stood at the door, so they opened the door.
Gu Qingtian happened to be standing outside, she was here to communicate with Wei Chi about the progress of the case, but she didn't expect so many people to stand in the ward.
Gu Qingtian looked around for a while, and then said, "I'm sorry, I'm a member of the Dongcheng District Traffic Police Detachment, and I'm here to ask the person concerned about something." β
"What's wrong?" Wei Chi raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qingtian. Gu Qingtian held the notebook in his hand and said, "The people over there may want you to compensate, I'll pass on a message, why don't you make an appointment to communicate?" The insurance company over there should be able to reimburse a lot. β
Wei Chi thought for a while and said, "There's no need to communicate, you can ask him how much." β
Gu Qingtian: "Oh, it's okay, and then I want you to provide your car insurance certificate." β
Wei Chi: "Well, I'll contact the insurance company later." β
Gu Qingtian: "Then I'll come back later?" When will you get it? β
Yu Chi: "Evening." β
Gu Qingtian: "Okay, okay, then I won't bother." β
After saying that, Gu Qingtian retreated first.
After Gu Qingtian left, Wei Chi looked at Wei Zhengsheng, Wei Junliao and Ji Yuan, and gave an eviction order to the three of them: "You guys go back first, I want to be quiet alone for a while." β
After half an hour, Wei Chi was the only one left in the ward.
He got up from the bed and walked to the window, looking at the bright sunshine and blue sky outside the window, but he couldn't be happy.
**
Wei Chi was hospitalized for about a week, and the wound on his head spread from the top of his head all the way to his forehead, and he needed more than 20 stitches, leaving a wound on his head.
Because of this car accident, Wei Chi had a month's sick leave, which was specially approved by Wei Zhengsheng.
The bandage on his head was worn for half a month, and it was not until the stitches were removed that the band-aid was replaced.
On the day of the New Year, Wei Chi also lived alone.
When he stayed at home, he remembered the New Year he had spent with Cheng Rao before.
There are too few harmonious pictures of the two of them together.
Just a little reminiscence and that's it.
**
On New Year's Day, Huang Ping deliberately took time out and drove to Jingshan Temple to visit Cheng Rao.
It was cold, the clothes brought by Cheng Rao were relatively thin, the temperature on the mountain was already low, she was weak, Huang Ping was afraid that she would get sick, so she brought her a lot of thick clothes.
The New Year is nothing special for cultivators, from getting up in the morning to noon, Cheng Rao has been repeating her usual life.
There was a holiday in the afternoon, and Huang Ping came over.
Huang Ping came alone today, and the mother and daughter hadn't spoken one-on-one for a long time.
Huang Ping followed Cheng Rao to her residence, looking at the slightly simple furnishings in the room, Huang Ping still felt a little sorry for her.
Cheng Rao has never suffered since she was a child, and it's too inconvenient to do anything here, I really don't know how she adapts to this kind of life.
distressed is distressed, and Huang Ping is not good at persuading her to leave here.
She could see that during the few months at Jingshan Temple, her condition was much better than before.
The quiet place of Buddhism can probably really sweep away the ashes in the heart.
Huang Ping put down the suitcase and said to Cheng Rao: "I brought you some thick clothes, it's cold, remember to add clothes." β
Speaking of this, Huang Ping glanced around, there was no air conditioner in the room, and there was no radiator.
Recently, cold air has hit, and the temperature in Los Angeles has been below zero all day.
The inside of the house was like an ice cellar.
Huang Ping took a look, and the temperature was only 17 degrees.
Cheng Rao's body is ...... in this environment
Thinking of this, Huang Ping was a little distressed.
She squeezed Cheng Rao's hand and felt her body temperature.
"Is it cold or not? Why don't I go and talk to the host and install air conditioning in your place. Huang Ping is really not worried about her spending the winter in such an environment.
It is not uncommon for businessmen to sponsor temples in recent years, and after Cheng Rao came, she was already ready for this.
"No, it's not cold." Cheng Rao said, "You don't want to spend money indiscriminately, you don't need to be special, it's good now." β
Huang Ping nodded, and finally chose to respect Cheng Rao.
However, I couldn't help but remind her: "Cover an extra quilt at night, and wear thicker clothes." β
Cheng Rao said "um", "I understand." β
Huang Ping cleaned up the room for Cheng Rao, and after finishing it, she looked at Cheng Rao and said, "Some time ago, Yu Chi had a car accident. β
Cheng Rao was originally drinking hot water, but after hearing Huang Ping's words, the action of drinking water paused.
However, she didn't ask about the situation, and behaved quite indifferently.
Huang Ping saw that Cheng Rao didn't react, so she continued to herself: "It's the night I went to deliver the cake at home." β
"Mom......" Cheng Rao shouted at her and said, "It's impossible for me to be with him, I don't like him." β
"I know." Huang Ping smiled and said, "I'm just chatting with you casually, you have already come to Jingshan Temple, of course you won't be together." β
After listening to her words, Cheng Rao nodded.
"By the way, those supplements, Yao Yu bought them some time ago, you are a vegetarian now, it is best to take a handful of supplements every day."
Huang Ping pointed to the bottles and cans that she had just placed on the table.
Cheng Rao nodded after hearing this, "Well, okay." β
On New Year's Day, Jingshan Temple had a three-day holiday, and Huang Ping accompanied Cheng Rao here for three days, following her every day to eat fasting and recite Buddhist scriptures.
Such days can indeed calm people down.
Although Huang Ping goes to the temple every year, she doesn't stay as long as she did this time.
She finally understood why Cheng Rao insisted on coming to Jingshan Temple.
After staying for three days, Huang Ping left.
Cheng Rao is in good shape now, and she is the most gratifying person.
Although she still has some regrets about not being able to be with Wei Chi, nothing is more important than her being healthy and peaceful.
**
On the 6th of January, there was a heavy snowfall in Los Angeles, and the sky and the earth were white.
Yu Chi looked at the snow outside, and suddenly moved the idea of going up the mountain to find her.
He has had this idea since he was discharged from the hospital, but he has never had the courage to act on it.
Wei Chi changed his clothes, picked up the car keys, put on his coat and went out.
The outside temperature was very low and very windy.
Heavy snow, highway closures, Wei Chi walked around the outside road.
There are a lot of cars on the road, and there are even some jams.
What would normally take less than two hours to drive has doubled today.
We set off at nine o'clock and arrived at one o'clock in the afternoon.
When Yu Chi arrived at Jingshan Temple, the snow stopped.
Jingshan Temple has a high altitude and a lower temperature than the urban area.
Yu Chi parked the car at the entrance of the temple, and there was a thick snow under his feet.
He stepped on it and walked towards the monastery, leaving a trail of footprints.
There was a creaking sound underfoot.
After Wei Chi entered the monastery, several young monks came out with brooms to sweep the snow.
Seeing Yu Chi coming, several of them were slightly surprised.
It stands to reason that no one will come to the temple in such bad weather.
One of the little monks walked up, saluted him, and then asked, "Who are you looking for, this benefactor?" β
Wei Chi pursed his lips and said, "Cheng Rao." β
"Please say the French sign, I haven't heard of that name." The little monk replied to him.
Wei Chi was stunned by the question, where did he know Cheng Rao's legal name?
He raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, waved his hand at the little monk, and said, "Forget it, I'll look for it myself." β
After saying that, he planned to go inside.
"Donor, please stay, our temple is not allowed to enter casually, please understand." Another monk stood in front of Wei Chi.
Listening to them talk about the rules, Wei Chi had a headache, and he didn't know what to do next.
A gust of wind blew the snow off the branches and fell on his hair.
At first glance, it looks like a head of gray hair.
β¦β¦β¦
Cheng Rao and several nuns were arranged by Zong Ru to clean the garden.
This kind of thing is something that everyone must do, and Cheng Rao did not run away from it.
She walked out of the backyard with gloves on and a broom.
When Wei Chi was thinking about how to discuss with these two monks, he raised his eyes and saw Cheng Rao coming out from behind.
Seeing her walking out in a nun's robe and a hat, at that moment, Yu Chi had a feeling of being separated from the world.
They hadn't seen each other for months, but it seemed like years.
Her hair should still be there, black hair can be faintly seen on her sideburns, her hair is all hidden in her hat, and her whole face is exposed.
I haven't seen her for so long, and her face still hasn't changed much.
Also, in this kind of place, it is impossible to gain weight by eating fasting and reciting Buddha.
Cheng Rao lowered her head and didn't notice him.
Wei Chi raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Cheng Rao, and then asked the monk in front of him: "Who is she?" β
"Oh, you're looking for Senior Sister Huikong." One of the monks finally reacted: "Are you her relative?" β
They all heard that Huikong's little sister's family would often come to visit her.
Wei Chi moved his lips, originally wanted to deny it, but in order to avoid trouble, he directly agreed: "Yes, I am her cousin." β
Hearing that Wei Chi said this, the two monks did not stop him again.
"Then you go to her."
Wei Chi said "thank you", and then quickened his pace and walked in front of Cheng Rao.
When Wei Chi came over, Cheng Rao was bending down to clear the snow.
It was extremely cold outside today, and as soon as she came out and stood for a while, her nose and eyes were red from the cold.
However, Cheng Rao is not the kind of squeamish person, everyone is clearing the snow, so she naturally can't rest.
Cheng Rao raised her hand and touched her nose, and when she was about to continue, she caught a glimpse of Wei Chi standing in front of her.
Her body instantly stiffened, completely forgetting what she was going to do next.
He stood in front of her, in the wind and snow, staring at her intently.
There was a blazing fire in his eyes, as if it was about to melt the ice and snow into spring water.
He had a visible scar on his forehead and a long tunnel on the top of his head, which was supposed to be a wound from a previous car accident.
This kind of head wound will basically affect a handful of hair.
Cheng Rao took a look, and the opening was very long.
According to preliminary estimates, he should have had more than 20 stitches.
It should be the car accident that Huang Ping said before.
With his appearance like this, coupled with such eyes, Cheng Rao was a little unbearable.
After meeting his eyes, Cheng Rao clenched the broom in her hand.
She couldn't bear the stares, took a deep breath, and planned to go around him and continue clearing the snow.
Yu Chi directly pinched her arm.
"Why don't you dare look at me?"
"This donor." Cheng Rao adjusted her breathing, "Please don't do it." β
"Cheng Raoβ" Wei Chi gritted his teeth and shouted her name.
"Call me Huikong." Cheng Rao corrected him, "My Dharma name is Huikong. β
How could Wei Chi call her that?
simply, the title was omitted.
He looked at Cheng Rao and asked her, "Why?" β
"Whatever you're asking, I don't need to explain it to you." Cheng Rao took a step back and saluted him, "Please go back." β
Yu Chi was still in front of her, motionless.
At this time, no other host happened to come out.
After seeing Cheng Rao being entangled by a strange man, he walked up directly without his host.
He stopped beside Cheng Rao, saluted Wei Chi, and then asked, "Is this benefactor here to find Huikong?" β
Wei Chi didn't answer, he gritted his teeth and reached out to pull Cheng Rao's arm.
After seeing this scene, he reminded him: "This benefactor, Huikong is not contaminated with men and women now, please show some respect to my apprentice." β
"Cheng Rao." Yu Chi looked at Cheng Rao and said to her, "I want to talk to you alone, it won't be long." β
Cheng Rao clenched the broom tightly and didn't answer, and the host looked back at Cheng Rao and noticed the movement of her hand.
After that, he said to Cheng Rao: "Huikong, you go back to chanting first, and I'll have a few words with this donor." β
Cheng Rao nodded in agreement, and then walked away with a broom.
Wei Chi stood in place and looked at Cheng Rao's back, a tear slowly falling from his eyes.
At this time, there was another gust of wind.
Her thin figure seemed to be blown away by the wind, and Wei Chi couldn't wait to rush up now to protect her in his arms and block the wind and snow for her.
It's a pity that she doesn't want him.
Wei Chi's heart was so sour that he couldn't do it.
At this time, he opened his mouth: "Are you Wei Chi?" β
Wei Chi was a little surprised: "You know me? β
He presided over and said, "Huikong told me about you and her. β
Hearing this, Wei Chi clenched his fists: "What did she say?" β
"It doesn't matter what you say, no matter what memories you have between you, it's all in the past, she is now dedicated to the Buddha, and the red dust has nothing to do with her." Being too attached will only hurt you, and you should start a new life. β
"Can she be vulgar?" After being silent for about two or three minutes, Wei Chi asked such a question to the host.
After hearing this, the host smiled and said, "It's up to her personal wishes." β
Jingshan Temple has never had such a regulation, gathering and dispersing are all fate, whether it is to enter or leave, it is all up to personal wishes.
Hearing that he was not hosting, Wei Chi whispered a "hmm".
Without him, the host had probably guessed what he wanted to do. "Amitabha," said the host, "turning back is the shore." β
Wei Chi knew that he was trying to persuade him to let go.
It seems that everyone is trying to persuade him to let go.
Wei Zhengsheng is persuading, Huang Ping is persuading, Shen Yang and Zhang Bai are persuading, and Rongguang, Chen Jing and Jiang Mingcheng are also persuading.
They all think that he and Cheng Rao have reached the end of their rope and there is no longer any possibility.
The cruel reality is in front of him, but he still can't let go.
Wei Chi glanced in the direction that Cheng Rao had just left, and she was long gone.
After the fog, the shadow of the mountain can be faintly seen.
He stared at it for a few dozen seconds, then withdrew his gaze and looked at the host opposite.
Wei Chi spoke: "Please help me bring her a word." β
Without him: "Please speak." β
Wei Chi: "No matter ten or twenty years, no matter whether it rains or snows, I will wait for her." If she doesn't come, I will definitely not leave. β
A simple and touching promise.
After listening to this, he nodded, "Okay, I'll bring your words." β
Wei Chi bowed to him: "Thank you." β
He knew that Cheng Rao would definitely not see him again today, so he turned around and left.
**
He looked at Wei Chi's back, sighed lightly, and then went to find Cheng Rao.
At this moment, Cheng Rao was chanting in the meditation room.
When he came in, she stopped and looked at him.
He sat down without his host and looked at Cheng Rao with a light smile, "That donor asked me to bring you a word." β
Cheng Rao clenched the sandalwood beads in her hand, and her pale lips pursed.
Then, she heard Wuhe preside over say: "He said, no matter ten or twenty years, no matter whether it rains or snows, he will wait for you, and if you don't go, he will never leave." β
Whoop -
A string of beads in Cheng Rao's hand broke, and the wooden beads rolled to the ground.
She raised her hand to cover her eyes.
He didn't say anything more, and left after saying that.
The door was open, and Cheng Rao looked outside with tears in her eyes. It's snowing again.
Outside Jingshan Temple, Yu Chi stood at the gate of the temple, looking up at the temple in the snow, and the hand on his side gradually tightened.
The snow began to fall again, and he stood motionless, covered with a layer of snow.
β¦β¦β¦
Cheng Rao cried in the meditation room for more than 20 minutes.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier outside.
Cheng Rao held up an umbrella, stepped out of the meditation room, and walked in the direction of the outer door of the temple.
Walking around the corner, she saw Yu Chi standing in the doorway, his body was covered in snow, but he was still standing motionless.
He was erect, his chin raised, and he stood still in the wind and snow.
At that moment, Cheng Rao suddenly remembered that he was a soldier.
She let out a sobbing sound, threw away her umbrella, and covered her lips with both hands.
It was too cold, and Wei Chi's consciousness was already a little unconscious.
He faintly heard a sob, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
After seeing Cheng Rao, he immediately walked in her direction.
Hearing Wei Chi's footsteps, Cheng Rao turned around and was about to leave. But the speed can't match him.
She was held in her arms, and the snowflakes on his body melted the moment of hugging.
"I knew you would come, Cheng Rao, I love you, I only love you in my life."
