Chapter 81: The Broken Temple

When Wang Longyun heard Shu Yan's words, he immediately smiled, although the young man's face was a little tired, but it vaguely revealed hope.

"My father once said that my aunt was a big rebel."

Shu Yan thought it would be a compliment, but he didn't expect it to be a big rebellion.

Shu Yan smiled helplessly.

"If you count it in detail, the people who rebel in this world are all great rebels."

When Shu Yan said this, he looked at his second nephew deeply.

"Auntie, what do you say is the most important thing for people to do things?"

Shu Yan thought for a while and said a sentence.

"Seek truth from facts, what to do, everyone knows, it's just because of face and the so-called etiquette, but those things can't eat enough, and there is no way to save people's dogs."

When Wang Longyun heard Shu Yan's words, he immediately laughed.

"My aunt is right, isn't life in the world like a dog? It's not a dog's life. ”

Shu Yan stretched out his hand and patted Wang Longyun's shoulder.

"I can't remember what happened before, I want to raise Yu'an now."

Wang Longyun obviously didn't believe Shu Yan's words.

"Just raised?"

Shu Yan smiled.

"No matter what, people will always grow up, don't you say, second nephew."

After Shu Yan finished speaking, he went back to his tent, Cheng San opened his eyes and saw his godmother returning in the moonlight, and said quietly: "Godmother, what did you say to the little general." ”

Shu Yan glanced at Cheng San.

"I told him not to have a psychological burden and to go straight to work."

In the early morning of the second day, Shu Yan took advantage of the fact that everyone did not get up, and went to the carriage to see Yu'an, the child was sitting in the carriage, his eyes were fixed on the Han army's baggage.

Yu'an didn't say a word, but he didn't know what the little head was thinking.

"Not happy to see Grandma?"

Yu'an raised his head, and he said, "Grandma, is this battle because of me?" ”

Shu Yan stretched out his hand and touched Yu'an's head.

"How is it possible, even if it is in your name, but it is not for you, Grandma has given you a task, you have to take good care of the little fish."

Xiao Yu'er shook her head and said with some resentment: "I can also protect Brother Yu'an." ”

Shu Yan stretched out his hand and touched Xiao Yu'er's head.

"Okay, okay, you are all good children of Grandma, do you know how to eat well?"

The two children nodded, Shu Yan left with a long sigh of relief, and happened to see Zou Shijie, and the old boy glanced at Shu Yan.

Shu Yan sneered: "Brother Zou has no heirs, so naturally he doesn't know what we think about being elders, and if we don't see each other for a day, I am worried." ”

Zou Shijie said coldly: "Which of these two children is your bloodline?" ”

Shu Yan was not afraid, she raised her head directly and said: "The bloodline is not important, the important thing is the affection of the family together, I am not like Brother Zou who is alone in this world, and I don't know if you dream back at midnight, do you feel that your life is meaningless?" ”

Shu Yan's mental attack really made Zou Shijie, an old man, feel a little uncomfortable, and he said: "The old man has been honored and disgraced in his life, how can you define it!" ”

After the old boy finished speaking, he shook his sleeves and left.

Shu Yan sat on the horse, his legs grinding painfully.

There is more than half a month to go from Fenyang to Pingqiu, and this trip has to pass through the hinterland of the Central Plains, from east to west, and it is inevitable to pass through Yangshan and Mall, which are the harshest environments.

If Fenyang can still survive, then these two places can be said to be uninhabited for thousands of miles, and there are dry bones everywhere.

Flocks of crows hovering in the sky, piles of dry bones on the ground, dilapidated city walls and crazy weeds, made Shu Yan feel a little sad in his heart.

Asura, who was sitting in Cheng San's arms, suddenly spoke: "Home ......"

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment, she suddenly thought of the dream she had before, a woman was hungry and wanted to eat her child.

Cheng San saw that Shu Yan was a little uneasy, so he opened his mouth to comfort: "Godmother, aren't you stupid by the wind?" ”

Shu Yan glanced at Cheng San, took a water bag from the horse, and took a sip.

The army set up camp at the ruins of the old city of Yangshan, and the army was going to collect water nearby. Shu Yan got off his horse and saw a dilapidated temple not far away.

Cheng San saw her gaze and immediately said with a smile: "Didn't the godmother have the idea of praying to God and worshiping Buddha?" ”

Shu Yan didn't pay attention to Cheng San, but walked to the broken temple by himself.

The ruined temple is very small, and the roof has been broken.

Shu Yan walked in, but saw a bald scoop with a shiny head kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, and after the bald scoop turned his head to see Shu Yan, he suddenly showed a smile.

Shu Yan took a few steps back.

"Old bald donkey? Not, Master? Why are you here? ”

The old bald donkey smiled, apparently not very concerned, and he stood up, revealing a shabby robe.

"It's a coincidence, we're meeting for the third time, donor."

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment, the third time? Isn't that the second time?

Shu Yan suddenly remembered the little monk who was with Qixiu before.

Shu Yan said in a low voice: "Master, the little monk you were looking for before should be dead. ”

A sad look flashed in the old bald donkey's eyes, but he quickly regained his clarity.

"The old man knows, thank you for the donor."

Shu Yan was a little embarrassed, thinking that this old monk should only have such a disciple, maybe he didn't even have a mountain gate, in such a troubled world, how could anyone have the heart to support the monks.

The so-called monks also have to come out to beg for food on their own.

The old bald donkey gave up a place for Shu Yan, and he whispered, "Donor, please." ”

Shu Yan didn't want to worship, but the old bald donkey had already said this, so she had to kneel in front of the Buddha statue and close her eyes.

But the moment he closed his eyes, Shu Yan saw something different.

When the night was dark and the wind was high, a woman who looked like a skeleton knelt in front of the Buddha statue, looking at the baby who was sucking, she seemed to be very hungry, so hungry that when she saw her child, she inexplicably touched the child's soft cheeks.

The woman trembled and lowered the child on top of the fire, but just then, a thunderclap rang out.

The woman threw the child to the ground in terror, let out an inhuman scream, and disappeared into the darkness of the night in terror.

The poor baby let out a terrible cry, and he crawled outside with difficulty, and for the first time saw the world alone.

Shu Yan opened her eyes suddenly, and she turned to look at the old bald donkey.

"I dreamed of her, the mother who was going to eat her own child......"

Shu Yan didn't care if the old bald donkey knew who Asura was at the moment, she only felt that all this was too mysterious.

The old bald donkey just smiled and said, "Donor, what do you think is a human being?" ”

Shu Yan's eyelids twitched slightly, and she suddenly remembered the sentence in the political book.

"Man, man is the sum total of all social relations."
