The wolves dispersed, there was no obstacle along the way, according to Xia Qi's guidance, the three of them kept going inside - this road is quite tortuous and deep, when the monks of the Shijia family built the Lanruo Temple under the foot of the deep mountain, climbing the mountain and wading through the water, it must have gone through a lot of tribulations, and twists and turns, not to mention that it took a lot of time.
In this respect, the tenacity and piety of the monks are enough to show it vividly.
It's just that now the times have passed, a decree has come down, and this famous temple in the world has become a dilapidated temple in the deep mountains, the incense is gone, the believers are all scattered, and the temple that has been painstakingly run in the past has suddenly become a paradise for snakes, rats, ants and insects...... Not only that, but the haunted land of the Buddha is even more regrettable.
After walking for nearly half an hour, Xia Qi was injured later, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down, but he held back the pain and did not moan or groan, but he was an iron-clad man.
After walking for a while, I turned a corner, and suddenly a large lake appeared in front of me.
The lake is quite large, and it spreads continuously, and I don't know how far or near it is. The water of the lake rippled, shining in the light of the stars, and suddenly a wind blew, blowing the surface of a pool, and countless ripples suddenly spread layer by layer, which was considerable. Lotus flowers are planted in many places on the lake, but it is not the flowering season at present, and there are no delicate lotus flowers in full bloom, so the fat leaves are open on the water, and the green leaves are blue and blue. If it is replaced by a sunny day, the light and water of this lake will definitely have a unique style.
Chen Jianchen really didn't expect that there would be such a beautiful scenery in Lanruo Temple.
I saw the grass by the lake, among which there were faintly unknown flowers blooming, swaying in a piece of turquoise to show their own color, but unfortunately the sky was dim, and it was not really visible; looking farther, a graceful covered bridge was like a spiritual snake, winding from this end, driving the lake, and stretching to the other side.
At the other end was a dense forest, and in the depths of the woods there were towering spires, and below the eaves of the temple were faintly patched, and at the end was a temple of great scaleβ
Lanruo Temple!
Inside, it is the real main temple of Lanruo Temple.
"Chen Gongzi, they borrowed it and lived there!"
At this time, Xia Qishou pointed and pointed to a building not far from the shore of the lakeβit turned out that they didn't really live in Lanruo Temple, but only stayed in the outer area.
The building is not large, built on the shore of the lake, and from a distance, it should belong to the existence of a sub-temple.
Now that they had arrived at their destination, the three of them did not hesitate any longer and hurried over.
"Who?"
Whew, suddenly jumped from a big tree next to him, tall, dressed in a blue shirt, looking very young, but in his early twenties, handsome face, holding a long sword out of the sheath, three feet of green peaks shining with cold light.
After he landed very elegantly, he played a sword flower, and the jade tree was like the wind.
"Third junior brother, it's me!"
Xia Qi immediately recognized the other party and immediately spoke up.
The young man also saw it clearly at this time, and was surprised: "Second Senior Brother, are you back?" Hurriedly stepped forward, saw Xia Qi's situation, and immediately said urgently: "Second Senior Brother, are you injured? What happened?"
Hurry over and support my brother.
Xia Qi smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say anything, let's talk about it when we go back to the temple." β
The three junior brothers glanced at Chen Jianchen and Ying Ning, and were surprised-Chen Jianchen's attire was like a gentleman's pedant, and Ying Ning was a little scholar. There doesn't seem anything unusual about the appearance of the two, at most the gentleman is more chic, and the scholar is more handsome, but there is nothing else to praise.
Why would an ordinary master and servant be with the second senior brother and dare to enter Lanruo Temple in the middle of the night?
This is what surprised the third junior brother.
At this time, Xia Qi introduced: "The third junior brother, they are all the life-saving benefactors of the senior brother, without them, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back, senior brother." β
Because of Chen Jianchen's instructions before, Xia Qi didn't dare to say more, so he could only introduce it like this.
It turned out to be the senior brother's life-saving benefactor, and the three junior brothers immediately bowed their hands and said solemnly: "Huo Jun thanked the two for their kindness to the senior brother. β
It can be seen that their relationship with the same family is good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are brothers and sisters.
After a brief greeting, the four of them quickly walked to the temple. Huo Jun took Xia Qi to enter first, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Senior brother, junior sister, come out quickly, the second senior brother is back." β
Chen Jianchen and Ying Ning deliberately fell behind. With the lantern, Chen Jianchen went to see the plaque at the entrance of the temple, but saw that the horizontal plaque was full of ash layer, unrecognizable, and the couplets on both sides could be seen very clearly, namely: East Tuye, West Tuye, Gumu Linggen is not two;
This pair is very appropriate, the artistic conception is extraordinary, and it is estimated that it is not written by idlers.
Huo Jun's shout immediately alarmed the people in the temple, and the footsteps were hoarse, and then a delicate and tender female voice said urgently: "Second Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, what's wrong with you?"
It was Nie Xiaoqian's voice.
Chen Jianchen hesitated for a moment, and finally walked in.
The temple is very open, and the lights are lit so that you can see the surroundings clearly. The inside has obviously been cleaned up, there is no mess of the abandoned temple, in the middle of the place, there is a Buddha statue, but the head is missing, only half of the body is left - after the Lanruo Temple was dilapidated, for a long time, many people nearby took the opportunity to rush into the temple to loot and destroy, and took away all the valuable things that could be sold for money.
You must know that the Buddha family has an empty door and likes to shape the golden body of the Buddha statue, which is a very valuable existence.
When the officers and soldiers seized the temple, they naturally searched it first, and what the people behind obtained was just a gleaning-style rummaging and destruction.
Huo Jun helped Xia Qi and asked him to sit carefully on a piece of pu dough. Two other people came to help, a man, about forty years old, with a short beard, eyes and a steady temperament, should be the senior brother. The one next to the senior brother, tall and tall, with a white face, eyes like autumn waves, and a good-looking beautiful eyebrows walked nervously at this time, obviously very concerned about the second senior brother's injury-
Isn't it Nie Xiaoqian, who I haven't seen for a long time!
is like a year, each has its own encounters, but Nie Xiaoqian in front of her has lost a lot, and her originally fat face has lost a lot of weight, but with a pair of eyebrows, it looks more heroic, as well as that unyielding stubbornness.
Looking at her, Chen Jianchen almost shouted out the words "Nie Xiaoqian", but the words reached his throat and swallowed back, only standing aside with Ying Ning and standing quietly.
However, Ying Ning's eyes were slippery, and she looked at Nie Xiaoqian vigorously, wanting to see what the "Sister Xiaoqian" that made her son tempted looked like.
Nie Xiaoqian and the others had medicine on hand, and quickly helped Xia Qi to apply the medicine and bandage it again. Xia Qi has walked a long way, and now he has returned to Lanruo Temple, and has joined his senior brothers and disciples, his mind is greatly relaxed, although he is very tired, but he still insists on telling the news he has found out.
After hearing this, everyone was stunned, especially Nie Xiaoqian, who was even more excited, and said, "Good thief, if it weren't for the second senior brother who found out the news in time, I am afraid that they would have been concealed." β
This concealment is tantamount to letting the people of the official government release his father to the capital - as soon as the capital enters the deep sea, life and death are boundless.
Later, Xia Qi introduced Chen Jianchen and Ying Ning, although Chen Jianchen and Nie Xiaoqian had known each other for a long time, but considering Chen Jianchen's strange behavior of temporarily pasting his beard, Xia Qi still held back and did not directly point out Chen Jianchen's identity and origin.
Hearing that it was Xia Qi's life-saving benefactor, Senior Brother and Nie Xiaoqian hurriedly came over to thank him.
After some greetings, Chen Jianchen knew the name of the senior brother, surnamed Wu, and his name was "Yan". When the two sides were polite, facing Chen Jianchen at close range, Nie Xiaoqian frowned, as if she had a familiar feeling, but she was not sure for a while, so she had to peek at it from time to time, and was surprised in her heart: Why does this gentleman look so familiar and look so much like that person...... But it's impossible, he's just a weak talent, in Jiangzhou, how could he come all the way to Zhezhou......?
Impossible......
However, the more I thought about it, the stronger the thought in my heart became, so strong that it was almost irrepressible, and finally asked, "Dare to ask Mr. by name?"
Chen Jianchen couldn't help laughing, and replied seriously: "The surname Chen, the word Liuxian, the name of Jiangzhou people." β
Yes!
Nie Xiaoqian jumped up as soon as possible and pointed at Chen Jianchen: "You, you ......"
Chen Jianchen sighed: "Xiaoqian, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are really here." β
Hearing this sentence, Nie Xiaoqian had no doubts in her heart, and at that moment, she had mixed feelings, all kinds of things in the past, a brief acquaintance between the two, even if it was just a very simple encounter, a very plain dialogue, at this moment, it was so clear and distinct in her mind, stirred and blended together, and finally turned into rolling tears, which fell from her eyes very unhappily, and tears fell like rain for a while.
She did not shed tears when she said goodbye, and she did not shed tears when her father was wronged and framed. But at this moment, listening to what Chen Jianchen said, "You are really here", an unprecedented sense of grievance suddenly came to my heart, and I must vent it with tears:
"Chen Jianchen, why are you here?"
Time and space change, suddenly reunited, what remains unchanged is still each other, and it is still a familiar dialogue.
This change fell in the eyes of the senior brothers, and they all showed strange expressions, I really didn't expect that the little junior sister and the other party actually knew each other, and the relationship between them seemed to be not shallow.
What the hell is going on?
Especially Huo Jun, his gaze at Chen Jianchen suddenly became a little strange.
