Chapter 420 Chapter 420: Seeking a Life......
It snowed heavily overnight, and another layer of snow accumulated outside the temple.
Lingyin Temple is 100 miles away from the imperial city, and the rugged mountain road is not easy to walk.
Lin Shuang'er sat in the carriage and lifted the curtain from time to time to look outside.
The scenery in the snow is magnificent, the sky and the earth are the same color, and you can only see a piece of silver, covered in silver, beautiful.
Outside the carriage were dozens of Jinjia guards, who were responsible for protecting Lin Shuang'er's safety on this trip.
In addition, there were two other chariots and horses following closely behind, one was Bai Yutang's and the other was Yebeicheng's......
This time I went to Lingyin Temple, in addition to lighting an ever-bright lamp for my brother and my father and aunt, Lin Shuang'er also wanted to chant and pray for them for a few more days, and she needed to live for two days.
Yu Wanning was originally going to come together, but she was unwell, and she happened to be infected with the wind cold, Lin Shuang'er couldn't bear her to run around and be tired, and she didn't want her to think of those sad things, so she persuaded her to recuperate in the palace.
The carriage soon came to the foot of the mountain, and Mingyue lifted the sedan curtain for Lin Shuang'er and helped Lin Shuang'er get out of the carriage.
Lingyin Temple is the temple with the most incense in Beirong, built on the top of Baiyun Mountain.
The bluestone steps up the mountain stretch straight up, surrounded by acacia pines, but now the green color has long been gone, and the thick snow weighs down the branches, but the bluestone steps up the mountain are extremely clean, and the hard-working monks will come every morning to clear the snow on it.
Over the years, the wind and rain have blown, and tens of thousands of people have stepped on them, and the bluestone steps have become as smooth as a mirror, and there is not even a trace of moss.
Lin Shuang'er was afraid of the cold, so she was dressed very heavily this time, she wore a brocade and wool cloak on her body, her fair face revealed a faint pink, and her cheeks were against the soft hair on the brim, which made her more and more petite. A pair of light apricot embroidered shoes showed a tip from under the skirt, the whole person was tightly wrapped, and there was a hand stove in his arms.
Mingyue followed behind Lin Shuang'er with a food box.
It was snowing heavily today, and there were not many pilgrims coming and going, only one or two occasionally.
Lin Shuang'er raised her feet and walked up the steps, followed by two people.
The two men followed each other without an inch, only two flights of steps away from her.
Lin Shuang'er didn't look back, but her steps couldn't help but speed up.
However, she walked too fast, her foot stepped on the hem of her skirt, and she leaned forward sharply, because she was still holding the stove in her hand, and she did not react for a moment, and she was about to fall head-on.
But before she could make close contact with the ground, two big palms grabbed her arms at the same time.
The two forces worked at the same time, allowing her to slowly stand firm.
Lin Shuang'er looked left and right, only to find that it was Ye Beicheng and Bai Yutang who grabbed her at the same time.
At that time, Ye Beicheng looked at Bai Yutang, and Bai Yutang was also looking at Ye Beicheng, the two of them looked strange, and the strange atmosphere spread. Look at the book
"Let it go!" Ye Beicheng was the first to speak.
Bai Yutang said coldly: "You put it first!" ”
Ye Beicheng refused to let go, but secretly used his arm to pull Lin Shuang'er to his side.
Bai Yutang refused to give in, and secretly relented.
The two were so competitive, and neither of them would let go first.
Lin Shuang'er's petite body was dragged from side to side, she was already heavily dressed, so her movements were a little bulky and not very active.
Now being dragged around by these two people, Lin Shuang'er's head was dizzy and a little angry.
"Let it go!"
Lin Shuang'er shouted angrily, and the two stopped their movements at the same time.
Lin Shuang'er wrinkled her eyebrows, glared at the two of them angrily, and said angrily, "What are you doing?" ”
Ye Beicheng took the lead in letting go of his hand and said softly: "Frost, the road is slippery on a snowy day, I'm just afraid that you will fall." ”
Bai Yutang also let go of his hand, and said the same thing: "The road up the mountain is rugged and difficult, so it's better for the princess to be careful." ”
Lin Shuang'er frowned, simply stuffed the hand stove into Bai Yutang's arms, and continued to walk forward with the hem of her skirt.
Ye Beicheng glanced at Bai Yutang, and then raised his feet a few steps to follow.
Bai Yutang looked at the stove in his arms and hurriedly followed.
It was freezing cold, and Lin Shuang'er's little hands were red from the cold. The further up you go, the more bitter the cold wind on the mountain becomes.
Lin Shuang'er sniffed, sneezed several times in a row, and her small nose was also rubbed red by her.
Seeing this, Bai Yutang couldn't help but speed up his pace and wanted to return the hand stove to Lin Shuang'er.
But before he could send out the handstove, a big palm held her little hand domineeringly.
A wave of warmth instantly came from wrapping her cold little hands, and the cold fingertips instantly got warmth.
Lin Shuang'er turned her head in surprise and saw that it was Ye Beicheng standing beside her, walking side by side with her.
Lin Shuang'er subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but she was firmly clenched by him, and the more she struggled, the more she couldn't pull it out.
"What are you doing? You let go! Lin Shuang'er couldn't shake it off, and her eyebrows couldn't help frowning.
Ye Beicheng looked down at her slender jade hand, at the moment it was like a treasure, held tightly in the palm of his hand, his eyes were gentle like water, staring straight at her, and there was endless tenderness in his eyes.
He said: "Shuang'er, I'm just holding your hand now, if you struggle again, I can't guarantee that I won't do anything more extreme to you......"
Lin Shuang'er said: "The blue sky and the white sun, Lang Lang Qiankun, what do you dare to do to me?" This is a place of Buddhism! ”
Ye Beicheng led her to continue walking, Lin Shuang'er was dragged by his domineering power, and her steps were involuntarily much lighter.
He pretended to think and said meaningfully: "For example, carrying you, or hugging you, no matter how bad it is, I will carry you up......" He hooked his lips, looked at Lin Shuang'er seriously, and said: "Shuang'er thinks this is a more excessive thing?" ”
Lin Shuang'er said angrily: "The dignified Lord of Song, why are you so scoundrel?" Where is it like a decent gentleman? ”
Yebei said: "Shuang'er, in front of you, I have never been a righteous gentleman......"
Lin Shuang'er said: "I knew that you were such a scoundrel, I shouldn't have agreed to take you here!" ”
Yebei said: "Even if Shuang'er doesn't bring me here, I will come to this Lingyin Temple in person." ”
Lin Shuang'er said suspiciously: "What are you doing here?" ”
Yebei admitted: "Ask for marriage!" ”
Lin Shuang'er's eyes flashed with slight surprise: "Don't you don't believe this?" ”
Yebei admitted: "I didn't believe it before, but now, I believe it." ”
Lin Shuang'er met his eyes and asked, "Why didn't you believe it before, but now you believe it again?" ”
Ye Beicheng suddenly looked at her very deeply, and said in a low voice: "Because I have knelt in front of the Buddha every day, hoping that the person I love the most can come back, and I hope that she is still in the world, I originally didn't believe in the gods and Buddhas, until later, I met her again......"
Lin Shuang'er's heart trembled suddenly.
Yebei said: "Sincerely, the gold and stone are open, this time, I want to ask for a life and a lifetime ......"
Lin Shuang'er was stunned for a moment, and her heart suddenly beat violently.
Bai Yutang followed behind the two, looking at the backs of the two holding hands side by side, the steps under his feet couldn't help but pause, and the clasped hands of the two pierced his eyes.
He lowered his eyes to look at the stove he was holding in his arms, and a wry smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
After all, is he still one step too late?
