Dingguo Mansion.

Bypassing a strange willow, you will be greeted by a three-bay house. As you climb the stairs, you will be greeted by a vermilion door. The partition on the door is a symmetrical copper coin pattern, and the upper and lower heads are slathered with orchid reliefs, while on the front panel, there is a simple lotus carving.

Lin Feng was wearing a black wide-sleeved unicorn coat embroidered with gold thread, with a red water pattern at the cuffs, and red piping at the hem of the clothes. Around his waist, there was a red gold and jade belt, which was very noble, and said, "I don't want to go down alone." ”

Miao Cunbai was wearing a black-and-red long-sleeved robe with a cross-collared collar, embroidered with a dark wide-brimmed pattern on the neckline and sleeves, and a pure black belt, and he did not wear a jade pendant, and said, "I can go down with your guards." ”

Lin Feng shook his head, "No, I don't want a guard, I want her to go down with me." ”

Lin Feng pointed at Miao Ruolan and said!

I saw Miao Ruolan wearing a light blue Su embroidered Yuehua brocade shirt, covered with a snow-white loose robe, and below was a soft silver light lily skirt, and the skirt was embroidered with dancing butterflies, "Okay, go down, go down." ”

"Ruolan, it's dark down there, I haven't been down for a long time, I've been down for a long time, you're a girl, what's the fun?" Miao Cunbai scolded, very dissatisfied.

Lin Feng smiled: "What? Is there danger down there? Otherwise, why don't you let your daughter go down? ”

Miao Cunbai said: "There is no danger. ”

Miao Ruolan said: "This is my home, what am I afraid of?" ”

Lin Feng nodded, "It's okay not to be afraid, then follow me." ”

Miao Ruolan said: "It's a big deal for men and women, I'm afraid that I will go down with you like this, and I don't know how to explain it to outsiders." ”

Lin Feng said: "You and I are an unmarried couple, and it is okay to get closer." ”

"Unmarried couples were supposed not to see each other until they got married." Miao Ruolan said, "Unless, you promise me that after you come out, you will marry me." ”

Lin Feng laughed, "You really dare to bet!" Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, I am married to you, and you and your father are going to tie their lives to me, and you are so confident that I can win? ”

"Of course I believe it, because you are the only prince who has military power in your hands, and the current emperor is mediocre! If you don't be the emperor, who is the emperor? Miao Ruolan said, "Please! ”

Lin Feng then walked down with Miao Ruolan.

The sound of the bell hits every corner inside and outside the Great Xiangguo Temple, and the aftermath is endless, flying far away.

But the goldfish in the water tank at the entrance of the main hall is still free. The incense on the case is still burning steadily.

If there was any impact, it was that a group of sparrows that had originally stopped at the corner of the eaves had already scattered and flew away at this time.

But the sparrow did not fly far, and before the bell could be extinguished, the sparrow fell again, or in the treetops, or on the ground, or on the top of the censer.

On the way to the Daxiong Treasure Palace, there is an endless stream of people, and the good men and women are all pious and dare not speak loudly, for fear of disturbing something, but a stray wild cat, wandering around, there is no taboo.

"Any new news?" A white-bearded elder asked worriedly.

Standing opposite was a few carefully selected novices in the Great Xiangguo Temple, and their original clean clothes were already covered with dirt at this time.

In search of the abbot whose whereabouts were unknown, these novices went almost everywhere they could.

But there is still no whereabouts of the abbot.

The novices shook their heads in frustration, not knowing what to say anything more.

"You've worked hard, go down and rest early." The deputy abbot Sikong Monk, who was standing on the side, interjected.

The group of novices looked at the white-bearded elder and saw that he did not speak, so they followed the advice of Monk Sikong and retreated.

During the period of the abbot's disappearance, the affairs of the temple were temporarily presided over by several elders, but the elders were too old and in poor health to continue to manage, and if the abbot could not come back for a long time, then a new abbot could only be elected.

Among the few candidates, the deputy abbot Sikong Monk can be said to be the best candidate.

It's just that the elders don't like Sikong monk very much.

"The abbot has been missing for many days, are we going to keep waiting?" After the novices had left, Monk Sikong questioned the elders in a somewhat sharp tone.

The reason why we have to wait for the novices to retreat is because the monk Sikong wants to show a good image in front of the novices.

And this group of elders, because their own cultivation is relatively high, will not say to the novices behind their backs that Sikong Monk is nothing, and this is the opportunity for Sikong Monk.

"Wait a minute." The elders still want to delay it a little longer, and they may become chronic when they are old.

"It's been so long, I can't wait any longer," Monk Sikong's tone became even more excited.

"There will be a big puja soon, and we can't do without the abbot!"

In fact, the elders did not know the importance of the puja, but the most suitable person was still the missing abbot.

"Although the elders are more senior than me, if it affects the future of my Great Xiangguo Temple, I will not give up." The deputy abbot Sikong waved his sleeves fiercely, and he didn't look like a monk at all.

The elders also bowed their heads and sighed at this time, if the missing abbot did not appear again, the new abbot position would indeed be none other than Sikong Monk.

And the monk Sikong has already begun to prepare for the position of abbot, and even the new abbot's robe has been ready.

Wu Guogong Mansion.

The copper nails on the door are round and golden, shining in the sun, the vermilion gate as a background makes the copper nails appear smoother, and the lower part of the door is a stone staircase, hewn out of a whole stone, and in the middle of the stone steps, there is a hole, which is used to latch the door.

Zhou Zheng wears a beige wide-necked kaftan with random patterns, a round-necked wide-sleeved white gauze jacket, and the jacket is freehand painted with ink bamboo leaves, which is very free and easy, and continues to play chess.

Narcissus said, "Girl, Du Jianbo is here." ”

Zhou Zhengzheng's eyes blinked, "You let him come over." It's time for this game to lose all the games. ”

Du Jianbo is here. Standing opposite Zhou Zheng, his eyes fixed on the chessboard.

"It looks like you're going to get down too, and it's pretty good." Zhou Zheng said "heavenly machine" in one sentence.

Du Jianbo said: "I can play chess with you." ”

"I don't want to play chess with you, because if I play chess with you, I will win. A person who always wins chess is a person who is disappointed. ”

Du Jianbo said, "You are really naïve, you don't know that in this world, there is never a real eternal win or loss." If you lose now, after a few days of quietly going down alone, you will get it back. ”

Zhou Zheng put down the chess pieces, "You're right. ”

When the eyes of the two collided, they were both calm and composed.
