Chapter 3 Promise to marry a monk

When Xiao Lingxiao opened her eyes again, she found that the clothes on her body had been changed. She was startled, turned over and sat up, just in time to see the little girl who came in with a basin of water and pushed the door open.

The little girl has a beautiful face, a pair of apricot core eyes that are clever, two small buns on her head, long black hair hanging down her waist, a snow-white shirt on her upper body covered with an apricot red placket and half an arm, and a floral long skirt underneath.

She stepped into the house, saw Xiao Lingxiao sitting on the bed, hurriedly put down the basin and walked over quickly, and said, "Sister-in-law, you're awake!" ”

Xiao Lingxiao was stunned when she heard this, and looked around at this room, although it was not shabby, it was far worse than the furnishings in the Four Princes' Mansion.

"Little girl, who are you?"

"My name is Ruixi." Rui Xi reported her name, sat down next to Xiao Lingxiao without seeing anything outside, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, your body is too weak and tired, so you fainted." Don't worry, when you marry my brother in the future, you won't have to suffer again! ”

Xiao Lingxiao was confused by this little girl, and after questioning, she learned that the brother in Ruixi's mouth was the abbot of the Fali Temple not far away, and the law name was Xuan, and the place where they were now was a house behind the Fali Temple.

"Sister-in-law, my brother is handsome and incomparable, and if you look at it, you won't be able to look down on other men! Sister-in-law, you are beautiful enough, and when you give birth to children in the future, you must be handsome men and beautiful women! Don't look at my brother as a monk now, in fact, he doesn't have any Buddha heart at all, and he can return to the world at any time! ”

Rui Xi sat in front of Xiao Lingxiao and praised her brother endlessly, and after talking for a long time, she remembered that Xiao Lingxiao hadn't eaten yet, so she jumped out.

Xiao Lingxiao listened to her footsteps and went away, hurriedly closed her eyes and looked inward, and found that in the darkness, only one place flashed with a faint light. The light enveloped the wolf's body, and it curled up in a ball, its eyes closed, and its breathing evenly, as if it were asleep.

Xiao Lingxiao looked at the appearance of the divine wolf, and it was inevitable that she was a little distressed. I didn't expect that I would die resolutely, but let the divine wolf bear so much. Thinking that she had fainted twice, Xiao Lingxiao couldn't help but sigh lightly. When she first came back to life, she didn't realize the weakness of herself and the divine wolf at all, and thought that they were as strong as before, and the hatred in her heart would soon be eliminated, but now that she thinks about it, how can it be so easy to come back from the dead. It seems that he can't be carried away by hatred, and to survive in this world, everything has to be calculated from the beginning.

After about a stick of incense, Rui Xi not only brought the food, but also her abbot brother.

Abbot Xuan is only in his early twenties, with nine ring marks on his bald head, sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a straight nose and thin lips, although he is only wearing a plain gray monk's robe, it is difficult to hide his otherworldly temperament. Before, Xiao Lingxiao thought that Ruixi's praise for her brother was exaggerated, but now that she sees it, what Ruixi said is not true at all.

Liao Xuan was polite to Xiao Lingxiao, and when he heard Rui Xi call Xiao Lingxiao by his sister-in-law, Liao Xuan's handsome face was full of embarrassment, and he found an opportunity to send Rui Xi out.

After Rui Xi left, when Liao Xuan looked at Xiao Lingxiao again, his expression became very solemn.

"Where does the donor come from? Where are you going? Xuan asked pointedly.

I came from the Eastern Tang Dynasty to learn scriptures from the Western Heavens......

Xiao Lingxiao subconsciously replied in her heart, but on the surface, she just stared at her brows.

After staring at each other for a moment, Liao Xuan didn't get a response, and finally sighed lightly, "The poor monk wants to persuade the donor, the world is dangerous, don't violate humanity." ”

When Xiao Lingxiao heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised, could this monk be able to see that there was something different about her?

"I wonder why the abbot said this?" Xiao Lingxiao asked quietly.

Liao Xuan looked at Xiao Lingxiao again, and seemed to still have some doubts, and finally shook his head and said, "If the donor has nowhere to go, he can stay here for the time being to recuperate." Rui Xi has a stubborn temperament, and what she says, please don't mind the donor. With that, Xuan got up and took out a delicate small porcelain bottle from his arms and put it on the table, "This is healing medicine, donor take care of it." ”

After Xuan left, Xiao Lingxiao picked up the small porcelain bottle and poured out a few pills from it, not knowing whether to eat it or not. At this time, Rui Xi jumped in again, and when he saw the small bottle, he immediately made a look of great surprise, "Oops! This is the snow ginseng Shenzhi pill that only the emperor can use as a tribute from the Dongmu Kingdom to the palace! It's a miracle medicine for healing! Sister-in-law, look how good your brother is to you! ”

Snow ginseng Shenzhi pills? Xiao Lingxiao was even more puzzled when she heard Rui Xi say this, how could an ordinary monk take out such a valuable thing casually?

But after Rui Xi explained, Xiao Lingxiao suddenly realized.

It turns out that although this Fali Temple is built in the deep mountains, it is the most famous temple in the Wuchi country, and although the monk Xuan is young, he is known as a monk, the emperor is very important to him, and often sends people to invite Xuan into the palace to study Buddhism. In this way, the incense of Fali Temple is more prosperous, and the relatives of the emperor and the country are constantly coming and going, and the tributes in the palace are rare and precious to others, but for Xuan, they are at their fingertips.

"You can have as many good things as you want to replenish your body, sister-in-law, you can let go and eat!" Rui Xi smiled heartlessly, pinched a few pills from Xiao Lingxiao's palm and stuffed them directly into her mouth.

Xiao Lingxiao hesitated, but still swallowed the pill, but she didn't expect this thing to be really immediate, as soon as she ate it, she felt a warmth in her body, all the pores seemed to be opened, her breath gradually smoothed out, and the clothes on Xiao Lingxiao's body were quickly soaked with sweat. When she changed her clothes, she only felt refreshed and recovered.

In the next few days, Rui Xi kept sending Xiao Lingxiao things to nourish her body, and Xiao Lingxiao did not shirk it, now for her, taking care of her body is the most important thing.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and Xiao Lingxiao felt that her body had not only fully recovered, but also seemed to have begun to gather the strength of the past again. She closed her eyes and looked inward, and saw that the light on the wolf had expanded a little, but she still did not wake up, so she could only sigh lightly and retreat. She stepped into the courtyard and saw Xuan enter the courtyard gate.

Liao Xuan came to Xiao Lingxiao, and saw that her face was ruddy, much more energetic than before, and said with a light smile, "It seems that those things are still of some use to Miss Xiao." ”

Xiao Lingxiao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she also smiled at Xuan, "The abbot is really well-informed. After hearing that Xuan did not call himself a donor but changed his name to Miss Xiao, Xiao Lingxiao remembered Ruixi's words, with his appearance and bearing, he must have fascinated countless young ladies and ladies, saying that he has no Buddha heart, but it may not be true.

"The emperor has issued a holy decree, saying that although Miss Xiao, you have come back from the dead, but you have bad luck in your body, so you can no longer intermarry with the royal family, and your marriage with the fourth prince will be canceled. It's just that the fourth prince seems to be very infatuated with Miss Xiao, and has entered the palace several times to ask the emperor to take back his fate. ”

Hearing what Xuan said, Xiao Lingxiao couldn't help but sneer. Spoony? The Four Princes? She didn't believe it.

"The four princes just don't want the duck to fly away, and the royal people only have that high position in their eyes, where is there love." Xiao Lingxiao finished speaking indifferently, looked at Xuan and asked, "Does the abbot know the situation over there in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Liao Xuan frowned and replied, "The Prime Minister's Mansion is probably concerned about the infatuation of the four princes, and is afraid that Miss Xiao's reputation will be damaged, so it is announced to the public that Miss Xiao has returned to the mansion." The Prime Minister and the Four Princes have sent a lot of spies to find Miss Xiao's whereabouts. ”

Xiao Lingxiao bowed her head and was silent when she heard this, she had already thought it out in the few days she had been here. In the future, she must survive in this world as Xiao Lingxiao, so she can't kill those enemies as quickly as she thought before. What's more, doing that is simply cheapening those guys, they bullied the previous Xiao Lingxiao so badly, shouldn't they pay a more painful price than that?

To do that, she had to go back to them.

"Miss Xiao." Liao Xuan suddenly spoke, and asked Xiao Lingxiao in a solemn voice, "You fled to this deep mountain and old forest, did you want to avoid trouble, or did you have another purpose?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao saw that Xuan seemed to be a little suspicious of her, remembering his title of divine monk, thinking that he was guessing something or already knew something?

After a little contemplation, Xiao Lingxiao felt that she still couldn't trust anyone easily, she didn't know why Xuan would help her like this, but she could now be said to be in danger, and if she took a wrong step, she might die again, and now that the wolf is so weak, Xiao Lingxiao will definitely not let it have unnecessary wear and tear for herself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lingxiao smiled at Xuan apologetically, "If the abbot is not at ease, Lingxiao will leave here immediately, and he will never cause you trouble." With that, she turned and was about to walk out.

Xuan was shocked when he heard this, and stepped forward to grab Xiao Lingxiao, "Miss Xiao misunderstood......"

Xiao Lingxiao was held by him, stopped and looked back at him with a frown, and asked softly, "Does the abbot still want to force me?" ”

Only then did Xuan realize that he was rude in his hurry, so he hurriedly withdrew his hand, shook his head vigorously, opened his mouth, and still didn't say anything. In the end, he lowered his head and walked out of the courtyard quickly, Xiao Lingxiao just felt strange when he saw this, thinking that he should not stay here for a long time, and walked out.

Before Xiao Lingxiao walked out of the courtyard, she saw Rui Xi suddenly burst in with a panicked expression. When she saw Xiao Lingxiao open her mouth, she asked, "Sister-in-law, are you a member of the Four Princes?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao was shocked when she heard this, "Is something wrong?" ”

Rui Xi nodded vigorously, "I don't know which bastard spread the news that I rescued you back, they said that you are the bride who ran out of the imperial city, and the concubine of the fourth prince!" The four princes and the people of the Xiao family are now surrounding the entire Fali Temple and this courtyard, they must be forcing my brother to hand you over! ”

Xiao Ling Xiao gritted her teeth angrily, if it weren't for the fact that the divine wolf was still sleeping, she would definitely let these guys come and go! Now it's a bit tricky!

"Sister-in-law, I have a way to get you out of here, it's just ......" Rui Xi stopped talking.

Xiao Lingxiao took Rui Xi's hand and said softly, "Rui Xi, the four princes and the Xiao family are all bad people, they are coming to arrest me now, if I am caught by them, I will definitely die." Don't you want me to die here? ”

Rui Xi looked at Xiao Lingxiao, thought for a moment, and finally nodded vigorously, "I'll let you out, but you have to promise me that you will never marry the fourth prince in the future, you must marry my brother!" No backlash! ”

Xiao Lingxiao was speechless for a while, she didn't expect that she would be blackmailed by a little girl one day!

"I will never marry the Fourth Prince!"

"You're going to marry my brother!" I didn't expect Ruixi to be unusually persistent in this matter.

"Good!" Xiao Lingxiao gritted her teeth and said, "If your brother and I are happy in the future, I will definitely marry him!" ”

Rui Xi blinked and thought about it when she heard this, and nodded a little reluctantly, which can be regarded as a retreat.
