By the time he walked down, I had just reached the entrance of the stupa, and the somewhat broken stone steps had been cleaned, and I could feel a chill when I stepped on it.

He came out of the tower and said, "Madam, what a coincidence. ”

"Li'er, they just went all over the mountains looking for adults, and it turned out that adults came here."

"With Pei Gongzi with her, the official can naturally 'retire after success'."

I hooked the corners of my lips, and when he really said a joke, I raised my head and looked at the towering pagoda in front of me, and said, "What is Lord Liu doing on the pagoda?" ”

"Look at the scenery."

"What kind of scenery are you seeing?"

He glanced at me, although there was no obvious displeasure in his eyes, but the faint fold in the center of his eyebrows was clearly visible, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Before, didn't Madam say 'open the sky and see the red dust', this official wants to see what he can see here." ”

I shook my head and said with a smile, "Lord Liu, do you know what Hongchen is?" ”

He frowned slightly.

I laughed: "In this world, there are only laypeople who can get married, have children and increase their age, can ride horses and lean on the bridge, and are full of red sleeves, all of which are inseparable from red; There are only ordinary people, who will get up early and be greedy for darkness, go to the horse and sell goods, will compete for fame and fortune, get up early and sleep late, and all this will raise dust, the so-called red dust, and that's it. ”

“……”

"Red dust is the world."

After speaking, I turned my head to look at this piece of Tallinn and said with a smile: "Lord Liu came here to see the world, it is a little upside down, right?" ”

He looked at me for a moment, then burst out laughing, and said, "Madame is such an interesting and wonderful person. ”

“……”

"Yes, I'm not looking at any red dust, I'm looking at it—look at it."

With that, he reached out and pointed at me.

My heart trembled slightly, and I slowly turned around and looked in the direction of his finger—

In front of the stupa, a towering mountain peak looms in front of you.

I can't see clearly, because there is a thick, milky white mist, which has not dispersed for many years, and in the mist, I can only see that the mountain peak seems to be wearing a tulle blouse, and the beautiful silhouette reveals a mysterious and elegant meaning, and it seems that you can still hear the sound of reading in the wind.

Although I don't know if the voice came from my memory.

Foggy Mountain.

Xishan Academy!

I was only looking at Yun Chifeng before, and I forgot about that place.

And at this moment, looking at that familiar mountain peak and thinking back to the many, many years I had spent there, I was also in a trance for a while, as if I had suddenly fallen into the whirlpool of time and space, and I couldn't find a place to come from.

"West Mountain...... College ......"

After a while, I heard a somewhat ethereal voice from reality: "Madam, do you also know Xishan Academy?" ”

I turned my head and looked at the familiar face, which was still a little dazed, and only nodded slightly: "I know." ”

"Benguan has also studied there for many years."

"I've heard that."

"Madame has been there too?"

"I've been."

Liu Qinghan slowly clasped his hands, his eyes revealed a bit of exploration, looked at me for a while, and said, "It seems that this official and his wife have been to many of the same places. ”

I slowly turned to face him, looking at his smiling expression, "This Tianmu Temple, Madame seems to have been a frequent visitor in the past. ”

"That's right."

"Have we seen each other here?"

At this time, I had slowly come out of the distant memories, and finally regained a little clarity, so I smiled faintly: "Lord Liu and I met here for the first time today. ”

"Oh......" He raised an eyebrow, his expression unchanged, but his eyes had darkened again.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Lord Liu still wants to get back his lost memories?" ”

He nodded and said, "A person cannot walk in this world without roots, and a person without roots cannot stand up to the heavens and the earth." ”

“……”

He looked at me again and said with a smile: "Madame has never lost her memory, you won't understand this feeling." ”

I coughed lightly and laughed, "Who says I didn't?" ”

“……！”

As if he had been struck by lightning suddenly, he looked at me with wide eyes in surprise, and for a while, he said, "You-"

"It's just that I'm different from adults, I didn't want to stand up to the sky, I just wanted to find some people and some things."

He looked at me in disbelief and didn't respond for a moment.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "When did it happen?" ”

"Huh?"

"When, you—amnesia."

"Soon after giving birth to a child."

“……”

"Actually, it's not too uncomfortable, it's just-" I looked at his dark eyes, which were filled with pain that seemed to empathize, and I was silent for a moment, and smiled: "It's nothing, it's all over." ”

“……”

He looked at me and didn't say a word.

It was very quiet in Tallinn, and as soon as the two of them fell silent, there was not even a sound around them, only the silence in this tomb was as quiet as ever.

I don't know how long it took, the wind blew through the copper bell on the pagoda, and the sound of Qingyue came.

He suddenly seemed to be awakened, opened his eyes slightly and looked at me, his expression became a little complicated, and he slowly said after a while: "Madam, I think about it very much." ”

"There is nothing in this world that cannot be passed."

He frowned slightly, and his expression was solemn and he didn't say a word.

Then he smiled and said, "It seems that I don't have Mrs. Free." ”

I smiled faintly: "Look at what you want." ”

"Makes sense." He nodded, looked at me again, I thought he was going to ask something, but I saw him and said, "This official has been out for a long time, and it is time to go back." Does Madame still want to see the scenery here? ”

"Hmm."

"Then, less accompaniment."

After saying that, he gave me a complicated look and turned to leave.

I watched his back disappear into Tallinn, and I stood still, slowly raising my hand, my palm red from my nails, almost breaking the skin.

Just...... I almost, almost almost, didn't hold back.

However, I finally endured it.

Not because of my sanity, nor because of his indifference, but because I remembered that when I lost my memory, although my mind was blank, I always remembered that I once loved someone and remembered many bits and pieces about him, and even mistook Pei Yuanhao for "him" because of this.

But he didn't.

He glanced back at the pagoda that had been eroded by the wind and sun, but he didn't really go up, but turned around and slowly descended the mountain.

As soon as I returned to the South Chamber, I saw a monk coming out of it with a food basket, and when he saw me, he immediately saluted with one hand. I asked, "Who wants this to eat?" ”

"Hui female donor, it is the foreigner you brought, Uncle Fearless let us take good care of him, and the little monk will deliver the meals on time every day."

"Oh."

I've almost forgotten about Zhan Zhen, Tianmu Temple is just an ordinary temple, and there is no place to imprison prisoners, so I can only let Zhan Zhen live in the south wing with us, just call a few more monks to take care of his daily meals.

I nodded, said hard, and he saluted again, turned and left.

In Tianmu Temple, people have some idleness, except for leaving the child to fly the eaves and walk the wall in the temple all day and night, jumping up and down, making a few little novices have no intention of doing their homework, we adults are actually a little bored, and when we gather in the hall in the evening to fast, I asked Pei Yuanfeng: "When will we go back to Chengdu?" ”

"Some of the wounded soldiers have been treated, there are no problems, and we will leave tomorrow," he said. ”

"That's great."

He smiled, seemed to be very happy, and turned his head to look at Xue Muhua again: "What do you say?" ”

Xue Muhua smiled faintly: "You just have an idea." ”

After speaking, he lowered his head and took a sip of porridge.

I think she has been a little absent-minded in the past two days, and her face has not been very good-looking, and Pei Yuanfeng's time has almost been spent with her. Looking back, when they return to Chengdu, it should soon be a happy event for the two of them, and naturally Pei Yuanfeng also hopes to rush back as soon as possible.

Hearing a "snap", Wei Zhengbang put the chopsticks on the table, got up with a wooden face and walked out.

Pei Yuanfeng glanced back at his back and didn't say anything, but his eyes sank clearly.

I couldn't help but frown.

Wei Zhengbang's thoughts on Xue Muhua, many years ago, when Xue Muhua was not married to Huang Tianba, I could already see it, although I don't like this person, but the things that men love and women, outsiders are not qualified to point fingers, think about these years, Xue Muhua married, was divorced, amnesia, and fell in love with Pei Yuanfeng again, so many things have been experienced, but he still maintains the original heart, and it can't help but be moved.

It's just that a relationship can't accommodate too many people.

Of course, this matter is not yet the time for me to worry, and now what is in front of me is to return to Chengdu.

Unlike them, what I have to face is not a happy event.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

The night passed in a hurry, and the next morning got up, everyone got up, and when they went to the dining hall for breakfast, before they had finished eating, they heard a heavy footstep coming, and when they looked up, they saw another tall figure walking to the door, blocking the sunlight.

Sure enough, I immediately heard his gong-like voice: "Miss, you are all up!" ”

I looked up and saw him walking in shirtless, with his clothes tied around his waist, with a big grin, black hair on his chest and a face covered with sweat. Except for me, Tang Ting has not yet left the cabinet, and Xue Muhua doesn't remember that he was a wife, so he lowered his head when he saw this scene, I am also considered to be old-skinned, coughed lightly, and still smiled: "It's up." Uncle Daring, what are you doing here? ”

"I practiced a set of Wei Tuo palms, and I just went down the mountain to see it again." He said, "Why are those people packing up? ”

"Well, we're leaving today."

"What?!"

As soon as he heard this, his voice immediately became louder, and several small novices around him covered their ears, and he had already rushed to me in three steps and two steps: "Miss, you are leaving?!" ”

"I've been bothered for so many days—" Before I finished speaking, when I saw his face, I immediately smiled and said, "I still have something to do when I go back to Chengdu." ”

"But—" He hurried over and grabbed my hand, "Miss, she shouldn't have left so soon." You've only been here for a day, and the Sprinkle family still has a lot to say to the eldest lady, and, and—"

He scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously thinking about what else could leave me, but he didn't seem to think of anything, his face was red, and a layer of sweat appeared on the top of his bald head, which made me feel sad and funny, and I could only gently comfort him: "Uncle Fearless, don't be like this." ”

"Miss," he said, his eyes reddening, "I'm afraid you won't come back for many years if you leave, right?" ”

“……”

This time, I choked up too.

As he said, it is true that this departure is not just a matter of not coming back for many years.

More likely – I won't be coming back at all.

Xichuan and I, when we left, there was only a faint connection like a gossamer, the death of my mother, the death of my father, Fu Badai's entry into Beijing, Uncle Ai's death, and the second uncle's escape from the world, recalling the Yan Qingchen who could never find out the depth in the main house of the Yan family, and the old lady Yan who had suffered a lot and regarded me as a great enemy, I really didn't know what I had to be nostalgic for Xichuan.

Thinking of this, I smiled miserably.

And the fearless monk was about to cry suddenly.

I was immediately so frightened that I swallowed all the sadness, and hurriedly pulled him to sit down, even Pei Yuanxiu, who had been sitting beside me, immediately gave way to his position, and the fearless monk took my hand, and his voice was changed: "Miss, the Sprinkle family is reluctant to you!" ”

The monks in the hall are probably not less fearlessly beaten and bullied, and now they see him a big man crying like this, all of them are very surprised, and keep looking back at us, I have no choice but to take his hand out of the hall, and see that there are people coming and going outside, so I simply pulled him to the back of the temple.

It just so happens that I also want to see my second uncle and say goodbye to him.

When I walked all the way to the quiet outside of the Zen monastery, the fearless monk finally stopped his sadness under my persuasion, but his nose was still red, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes. ”

"yes, okay."

As he spoke, he wiped his nose with his sleeve and walked over to bang on the door.

Immediately, the two young monks walked out, and when they saw us, they all folded their hands and saluted: "Uncle Shi, donor." ”

The fearless monk said: "The eldest lady is leaving, and she wants to say goodbye to the abbot." ”

The two monks looked at each other, but did not move.

The fearless monk's dark eyebrows furrowed: "What's wrong?" ”

The two monks looked at me and looked at each other again, and one of them hurried over to the intrepid monk and whispered something in his ear.

Immediately, I saw the fearless monk's thick black eyebrows twisted into a pimple: "What?!" ”

"Yes."

"When?"

"Just yesterday."
