Chapter 12: The Uninvited Guest
At this time, there was already a little novice waiting at the mountain gate, and when he saw Lu Ziyi passing over, he clasped his hands together slightly: "Master Lu." ”
Lu Ziyi also replied: "Little master, Lu came uninvited, I don't know if it will cause trouble to the abbot?" ”
"Senior Ancestor, the old man already knew that Lu Shi was coming, so he specially sent me to pick him up."
"In this way, there is little master Lao."
"Lord Lu Shi is polite! The master also has a sentence for me to pass on to you, 'Returning to people on stormy nights', what should come will always come, and you can't hide from it. ”
After hearing this, Lu Ziyi's expression became even more indifferent, but his steps up did not stop for a moment: "It's man-made, how do you know if it works if you don't try?" ”
Tang Wan and Lu Yun took a step behind Lu Ziyi until they stood in front of several elegant and quiet rooms.
"These three side rooms were specially ordered by the ancestor to be cleaned, Lu Shizhu is in the middle, and the other two donors are one for each of these two donors." The little novice pointed to Lu Yun and the soup bowl.
"I really didn't expect Master Abbot to arrange it so thoughtfully." Lu Yun couldn't help but answer.
This time, however, the little novice did not answer, but bowed to the three of them and then withdrew.
"My lord, shall I go get some water?" Lu Yundao. After driving for a long time before, and the wind blowing at the mountain gate for so long, Lu Ziyi really needed to rest.
So he nodded, but he pointed to the soup bowl: "Take him." ”
The soup bowl has only just recovered a little since he fell off the carriage, and his feet are soft on the ground. However, no one could disobey Lu Ziyi's order, so Lu Yun took the wooden barrel placed outside the wing room, dragged the sleeve of the soup bowl all the way to the well.
When there was enough water for Lu Ziyi to wash and bathe, the arms of the soup bowl were already covered with red marks horizontally and vertically. She tossed the empty bucket to the side, and sank to the ground with her ass down.
"Did I say you were allowed to sit down? Planning to take cold water for me to shower? Lu Ziyi didn't know when he was already standing behind the soup bowl, and said a word of compassion, so frightened that the soup bowl jumped up from the ground with a snort, and kicked the bucket over.
"Master Guoshi, can you come out and say something openly? A small heart is not good, if this is not good, it will not be able to serve you! ”
"Go burn the fire!" Lu Ziyi said: "I'll only give you half an hour to prepare hot water, otherwise you will be responsible for feeding mosquitoes outside tonight!" ”
Thinking of the dense mosquitoes that all rushed over when they saw her, the soup bowl slipped and ran to the boy's room.
When the soup bowl came out of the young man's room with a head of black ash, he was about to say something to Lu Ziyi, but he saw that in addition to Lu Ziyi and Lu Yun, there was a stranger sitting in the main room. A brocade robe and jade robe are imposing. You don't have to guess to know that you are either rich or expensive.
The soup bowl secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly lowered his head and hurriedly stepped back. Lu Ziyi has arrived here, and someone specially came to talk to him, so there must be something important. She just broke in so recklessly, and her head was afraid that she didn't want it.
However, although the soup bowl reacted quickly, the person sitting on the main seat had already seen her and stopped her when he opened his mouth.
"You, come here!"
The back of the soup bowl stiffened, and called her over? What if she doesn't go? I'm afraid I'll have to hit the ground on the spot, right? Don't you see that even Lu Ziyi can only sit under this person here? Prove that this person's identity is extremely noble.
All kinds of mixed thoughts flashed in the soup bowl's mind, she secretly gritted her teeth, turned around quickly, and then knelt down with a thud: "The little one is reckless, he doesn't know the rules, he collided with the nobles, and the little one should be damned." ”
"Since you know the faux pas, go down and get ten lashes yourself." Lu Ziyi's voice without any emotional fluctuations sounded, and fell straight into the ears of the soup bowl: "It was the Weichen who had no way to discipline him, which made the slave collide with His Royal Highness King Duan." ”
"The national teacher is serious, this is not an imperial city, if it weren't for the delay of this king on the way back to the city and missed the time to enter the city, it would not be possible to meet the national teacher here now. In this way, it is still a bit uninvited by this king. Duan Wang Chen Wenze smiled.
"His Royal Highness King Duan has spoken for you, why don't you come to thank you?" Lu Ziyi said at the soup bowl.
"Small, small thank you, His Royal Highness King Duan!" The soup bowl knelt down and slammed against Chen Wenze.
"No courtesy." Chen Wenze still had a smile on his face: "National Teacher, I heard that this is the slave who caused you to have a conflict with Tang Nengjiang?" Sure enough, it looks the same bump as rumored. Chen Wenze looked at the face of the soup bowl carefully, and when he saw the half of the ghost-like face, there was a faint disgust in his eyes.
"Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Unexpectedly, Weichen's little things that couldn't be put on the table reached the ears of His Royal Highness King Duan. Lu Ziyi bent slightly at Chen Wenze.
"Hey, national teacher, this king doesn't mean anything else when he says this, so there's no need to be nervous. Hengzhi father has a scale in his heart, whether it is good or bad, all in his old man's heart. Isn't the national teacher once again entrusted with a heavy task by his father? This has already shown that the status of the national teacher in the heart of his father and emperor cannot be shaken by anyone. ”
Hearing Chen Wenze's words, Lu Ziyi's expression became more serious: "The saint's trust in Weichen, Weichen should do his best!" ”
"National teacher, my father is not here, he can't be so serious. However, since my father has issued an edict to both the king and the third child, rest assured, the king will definitely cooperate with you and handle the matter of the imperial mausoleum festival well. ”
Chen Wenze raised his hand and patted Lu Ziyi's shoulder: "Okay, I see that this little slave was gray and sweaty when he came in, he must have boiled water for you, and this king is not here to delay the national teacher to wash." Moreover, tomorrow morning, the king will have to go back to the palace to report on his work, so he will not accompany the national teacher to cultivate himself here. ”
"Weichen sends His Royal Highness King Duan!" Lu Ziyi said.
"Excuse me, excuse me!" Chen Wenze turned around and waved his hand at Lu Ziyi. However, when he passed by the soup bowl, he suddenly stopped again, looked down at the soup bowl and said, "Your lord protects you like this, you have to do things for him loyally!" ”
The body of the soup bowl leaned low, and replied with a "Yes!" ”
The soup bowl waited for Lu Ziyi to finish washing, and then he took some leftover water that still had some residual warmth and returned to the side room where he lived. After closing the door completely, she slowly took off her outer gown, revealing a patched but relatively clean undergarment.
The stinky sweat that had already covered her when she boiled water in the room just now was now sticky and sticky all over her clothes, making her feel itchy all over her body.
After unbuttoning the top button of the underwear, revealing the wheat-colored skin inside, the soup bowl's hand did not stop, and unbuttoned two or three buttons one after another.
Just as she was about to wash her body properly, her fingertips suddenly touched a soft object.
That's the strip of cloth that was wrapped around her little bun when it began to develop.
"Remember, don't let anyone out there notice you're a girl." The voice of the godfather's flask sounded in the soup bowl's mind.
"Father, why is that?"
"Because, that will kill you!"
The sound of the wine jug was still roaring, but the soup bowl had already started to buckle back one button after another that had been unfastened before.
After buttoning it up, the soup bowl wiped a few handfuls of his face and neck with a damp cloth, and then rolled up his sleeves and wiped his arms and feet, and then walked out with a basin of water.
In the next few days, Tang Wan was asked to follow Lu Ziyi's side, even if he went to the thatched house, Tang Wan had to wait outside with a knife and hand paper.
"Everyone says that this national teacher has a strange personality and is not easy to approach, no matter how I look at it, I think this person can be described by the word eccentric? It's just a big pervert! The soup bowl sat boredly on the ground at the entrance of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, carrying a dog's tail grass in his hand, and flicked it out again and again.
Lu Ziyi had been talking about Zen with the abbot master for almost an hour, and he didn't want to end it at all.
Although Lu Ziyi is very unwelcome in the heart of the soup bowl, he has to admit that this person's attainments in Buddhism are so high that ordinary people can hardly match him.
"Why should I pay attention to whether this old fox understands Buddhism or not? It's time to think about how to go to the back mountain later! "In the past few days, I have followed Lu Ziyi around this Zenlin Temple, but she has found a very interesting place.
"What do you want to do in the back mountains?" The soup bowl was pondering when suddenly a voice interjected. She subconsciously said, "Of course it's to pick raspberries!" That stuff tastes good! ”
After saying it slowly, the soup bowl paused, and his mind turned around at once. She leapt from the ground and looked behind her. The person with a treacherous smile on his face is not Lu Ziyi, who is it?
"Do you know what kind of place this Zenlin Temple is?" Lu Ziyi squinted at the soup bowl.
"It's just a temple, what else can it be special? It is said that it is a royal temple enshrined by the royal family. The soup bowl replied.
"Well, it's kind of a head on my neck." Lu Ziyi continued: "Since it is a royal temple, many outsiders can't enter casually, it seems that you don't know." ”
I see...... It seems that the raspberry she was thinking about has gone to waste. The soup bowl felt a little depressed in his heart.
"However, I am now preparing to go to Master Xuanming of Houshan to get some mountain spring water to make tea......" Before Lu Ziyi's words were finished, he was snatched away by the soup bowl: "Master Guoshi, you must be tired of discussing Zen with Master Abbot for so long, let the little one help you get it?" ”
"You're going to fetch it for me?" Lu Ziyi looked at his soup bowl with big eyes flickering, and the corners of his mouth rose: "Yes!" ”
"The little one, go now!" Tang Wanle was about to jump up, but was poured a basin of cold water by Lu Ziyi's next sentence: "However, you have to copy the words 'I am an old fox' a hundred times first." Be sincere and handwritten. ”
The soup bowl was about to run out, and his body stiffened: "Did you hear everything?" ”
"That's right, a hundred times to change to the back mountain, can you go?" Lu Ziyi said.
"Go, go, of course! The little ones are going to copy it! As he spoke, he asked Lu Yun for pen and ink.
When the sun was about to set, he walked out of his room with a soup bowl with a big flower face, and excitedly went to find Lu Ziyi with the hundred words he had copied, but was blocked by Lu Yun outside the door.
"Lu Yun, where's my lord?"
"I've been grinding for so long, and I'm embarrassed to let the adults wait for you. He had already gone to the back mountain to get the mountain spring water first! ”
"Huh?" Tang Wan looked at his "crab crawling words" and scratched the back of his head embarrassedly: "Then I'll go find an adult!" ”
