Chapter 34: Qingfeng Flowing Clouds
There is a temple in the northern suburbs of City C, and everyone says that the wishes made in that temple can come true, and the smell of incense there is very strong, but no one knows when this temple was built, maybe fifty or sixty years ago, maybe a hundred years ago, or even more. What's more, this temple will always have only a little monk, and no one has ever seen the abbot.
Zuo Aoqi had heard of that place before, but he had never been there, so he wanted to take Ji Yunqing to see it while he had time now. After such an exciting story last night, he woke up very early this morning. After washing, he went to tell Ji Yunqing to get up. "Qingqing, get up, Qingqing." He knocked a few times, but the door still didn't open, so he could only open the door by himself and go in, when he saw that Ji Yunqing was still asleep, and that action was also very well-behaved and motionless, the young man smiled, and that smile was like the water lines of a clear spring, slowly overflowing from the corners of his mouth, rippling all over his face. He gently shook Ji Yunqing through the quilt, and shouted very softly: "It's time to get up, Qingqing, if you don't get up, you can't play." ”
"Hmm...... Eh, why are you doing this? Ji Yunqing stretched her waist, opened her eyes and saw Zuo Aoqi, who was also stunned for a few seconds, oh, she seemed to have forgotten who told her to get up.
"Girl, if I hadn't been here, who had just woken you up?" The smile on the young man's face became thicker and thicker, a bit like the morning sun, which made people's hearts warm.
"Oh yes, you just said you were going to take me to play." Ji Yunqing sat up from the bed and answered him in a daze.
Zuo Aoqi couldn't help but rub her head that had just woken up and was still messy, then turned around and said as she walked out, "Get up quickly, I'll wait for you downstairs for breakfast." "Led the door downstairs for breakfast.
Ji Yunqing changed his clothes as quickly as he could, brushed his teeth, washed his face, and went down. Seeing that Zuo Aoqi had finished eating, and was reading the newspaper on the side at this time, she sped up, but she kept asking herself what she did last night, and accidentally agreed to something! "I'm done eating, let's go."
Zuo Aoqi folded the newspaper and put it on the table, and seeing that Brother Hua and Sister Yan hadn't come down yet, he said to Aunt Bing in the kitchen: "Aunt Bing, we're going out, please help me tell Brother Hua and Sister Yan later." ”
Aunt Bing popped up, looked at them, and replied with a smile: "Okay, you guys go, have fun." Zuo Aoqi took her to the garage, she took the car at the door of the mansion on weekdays, this was the first time she went to the garage of Zuo's house, but obviously Zuo Aoqi had decided to drive the mountain bike, and took her to the northern suburbs.
【Northern Suburbs】
Since the car could not drive up, they had to choose to hike up the mountain, but the mountain had more than 600 stairs, and the two of them shook their heads helplessly after looking at each other, and then resigned themselves to climbing up step by step, and fortunately it only took fifteen minutes.
"Wow, it turns out that you can see the whole city of C here, it's so beautiful." Ji Yunqing looked into the distance, his eyes were full of surprise, he opened his hands as if hugging the whole city, Zuo Aoqi secretly filmed this scene in the back, and carefully collected it. "Didn't you say a lot of people came? Why aren't there so many people coming now? ”
"Stupid, it's the ninth year of junior high school now, and the young people are going back to work, and the older people usually come to such a high place on a specific day." He took Ji Yunqing's hand and pulled her to turn around and walk towards the temple, Ji Yunqing was still very sweet in his heart, so he followed his footsteps slowly.
【Lingyin Temple】
As they walked inside, there were already more than a dozen little monks kneeling there chanting, and it was rare that the abbot was also there.
As soon as they stood there, the abbot came up and bowed to them with his hands folded: "You guys are finally here." ”
"What? Could it be that the abbot knows us? The two of them really had nothing to do at this time except for doubts.
"I don't know, they all know you something, please come with me." The two followed the abbot into the back hall, sat down in a small room, and the abbot made tea for them before leaving.
"What's going on?" Ji Yunqing looked at the tea, he didn't drink it, he didn't drink it, in short, he was confused now.
"To be honest, I don't know, but since he says he knows us, let's wait." Zuo Aoqi picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip gently, feeling that he had nothing to do before signaling Ji Yunqing to drink it.
As they spoke, the abbot came in with two boxes in his hand, and the patterns on the two boxes were so exquisite, that every stroke could show how serious the person who made them was. The abbot gently placed the box on the table and motioned for them to open it. Zuo Aoqi and Ji Yunqing opened one by one, because just now they also saw the abbot's caution about these two boxes, so they also opened the two boxes carefully, but found that there were two swords inside, and the two swords seemed to be paired, and the patterns on the hilt were even more exquisite, and at a glance, they knew that these two swords definitely had an extraordinary history, but they didn't understand why these two swords knew them? "Does the abbot mean that these two swords know us?"
"Well, yes, I know you two may not believe it, after all, in this century, very few people use this, but we are waiting here for generations, waiting for someone who can have this sword to appear, this morning, these two swords that have not moved on weekdays, but today they are a little different, they are starting to crumble there, I think someone should come, just when you came." The abbot poured tea for them before pouring himself a cup of tea.
"Does these two swords have any meaning?" Ji Yunqing likes the sword in his hand very much, the hilt and sword sleeve of these two swords are white, the only difference is the pattern on this sword, their pattern is reversed, maybe it shows the difference between these two swords.
"This boy is holding the Qingfeng Sword in his hand, the Liuyun Sword in your hand, Qingfeng Liuyun, has been a set since ancient times."
"Since ancient times? Can you please tell us the story of these two swords? ”
The abbot nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said slowly. "This sword was made by the founding emperor and queen of the Xuanyi Dynasty, only three pairs of people in history have taken these two swords, the first pair is the founding emperor and the founding queen of the Xuanyi Dynasty, the second pair of the Xuanyi Dynasty Xuanyou Emperor's third son Mu Qingrui and Yu Guogong's adopted daughter Tong Jia Shuqing, the third pair is Yun Yiqing, the son of the Marquis of Yong'an of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and Mu Jinjuan, the granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong, I want to come to this next pair is you, each pair of them is separated by a hundred years, but this time it is a thousand years apart, since Yiqing and Jinjuan, these two swords are like sleeping, Our abbot of Lingyin Temple has been waiting here for generations, waiting for the person who will wake it up, but fortunately, the old man has arrived. The abbot clasped his hands together, nodded again, and whispered "Amitabha".
Ji Yunqing suddenly had an idea, she asked: "Abbot, will the heirs of this generation actually be the same person?" Zuo Aoqi also nodded, indeed, since they are all waiting for someone, will they be waiting for that person to reincarnate?
"These, the old man doesn't know, maybe it's indeed reincarnation, or maybe they all have a different relationship with each other." The abbot shook his head, then stood up and said, "Please wait here for a while, and the old man will go and get something." The three of them bowed to each other.
"If it's really reincarnation, how many lives have the two of us had?" Zuo Aoqi asked her with a smile while looking at the Qingfeng Sword in his hand.
"I don't know, but I really like this sword, if only I could bring it back." Ji Yunqing really likes the Liuyun Sword, she is gently stroking every part of the sword, she likes this sword very much at first sight, and always feels that there is a connection between them.
"If you like it, why don't you take it back?" The abbot came in with a few books, sat down slowly, and then placed the books in front of them, "This is the people who have used these two swords in the past and their affairs, you two might as well take them back and take a look." ”
""History of Southern Qi", "History of Xuanyi", "Qingfeng Liuyun", why haven't I read these books?" Zuo Aoqi opened a book at random and took a closer look, only to find that these books had never even appeared in these dynasties.
"Moreover, these countries have never spoken about it." Ji Yunqing turned out the "History of the Southern Qi Dynasty", the ...... of the Southern Qi Dynasty She seems to have said it at some point.
"Yes, none of these countries exist in genuine history, after all, no one has ever known whether it exists, so naturally you can't see it, in fact, you can also look at it as a story, not necessarily as history."
Zuo Aoqi and Ji Yunqing thanked the abbot and left Lingyin Temple.
Ji Yunqing kept watching "History of Nanqi" in the car, Zuo Aoqi saw that she didn't say a word, but her brows kept frowning, as if she was looking at something but didn't understand, "What's wrong?" ”
"Yun Yiqing, Mu Jinwan, it's really perfect." Ji Yunqing sighed while reading it, in fact, there are not many examples of them using Qingfeng Liuyun in that book, but every time they appear on important occasions, this is why Ji Yunqing is puzzled.
Sister Yan felt helpless about them suddenly bringing two swords home, but they strongly asked to stay, so they had to put them in the room of the two of them.
Voiceover: The three books mentioned in this chapter are all needed for the plot, and do not exist in reality, and the plot needs it.
