Chapter Forty-Eight: Xu Jinxin Leaves Pengzhou
Xu Jinxin stepped into the hut, and the monk inside was smiling. I recited the Buddha's name. "Amitabha."
Xu Jinxin ignored the enthusiastic monk, and instead looked at the hut next to the shop, which he had stayed in when he traveled a year ago.
The monk on the other side was a friend he knew at the time.
The monk is from the White Dragon Temple, but it is said that he was kicked out for not following the temple rules.
But as smart as Xu Jinxin, he knew that this monk was talking nonsense, after all, a person with talent like him, Bailong Temple didn't want it, and it was really a bad brain to let him fend for himself under the mountain.
But what is the real reason for being driven down the mountain, Xu Jinxin wants to say, God knows.
The desperate monk opened a small shop next to it in Pengzhou, drew talismans to ward off evil spirits, and gave the shop a really shameless name, called "Tongtian Avenue".
Not to mention the effect of drawing talismans to ward off evil spirits, but after coming and going, it really became a little famous.
At this point, the monk was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, claiming that he was smart.
The monk's name is empty desire, and he is in his twenties.
But judging from the amount of money made in this store, the name Void Desire seems extremely ridiculous.
Perhaps, the old monk who named him at the beginning didn't open his eyes to see if he really had nothing to do and had no desires.
"I didn't expect it, it's really a virtuous brother, they all said that my brother's life is good, and it seems that he is somewhat accurate." Empty Desire said.
"I want to stay here for a few more days, and by the way, I will find out some news, and I am afraid that I will trouble my brother here."
"It's like I owe you, that's it! Let's talk about it, maybe, I can really help you. ”
"Brother, do you know that Zhihe is in the imperial capital?"
Empty Desire shook his head. "I don't know."
"It is said that she still has an official position in the imperial capital, specializing in assassination activities, and my brother has seen her?"
Empty Desire shook his head. "I didn't see it. You know I'm very busy here, and it's hard to keep an eye on what's going on outside. But don't be discouraged, I have a lot of friends in the city, and I'll ask them to help you inquire then. ”
"In the past few days, I've been in trouble with my brother."
The monk's serious face suddenly smiled, and the solemn and calm bearing of the monk on weekdays was very similar, but he scratched his head a little unvividly. Said. "Naturally, my brother will do his best."
"Thank you."
Xu Jinxin said, stood up, and walked to the other side, where a guy greeted him and led him to his new residence.
Xu Jinxin walked a few steps, stopped, stood not far away and asked. "Those things, but my brother spread them?"
Empty desire knows that the so-called things are nothing more than stories that were passed on by themselves and then told by the tavern storyteller.
Thinking about it like this, I am a monk, and the story of love and love is really a bit nondescript.
"It's a little bit, but it's a shame that someone else has changed a lot."
Xu Jinxin nodded and said. "There are a lot of exaggerations, and they don't conform to reality, and they don't sound good, so I hope my brother won't spread them out next time."
After he finished speaking, he disappeared in front under the leadership of his fellows. But the words are a little heavy.
Early in the morning, Xu Jinxin stood on the stone staircase where Zhang Chuxin fooled the children half a month ago, and turned his head to look at the road when he came.
A young girl followed behind him.
Seeing him come over, the girl turned her head to look away, as if she was just passing by, but this kind of passing has been from last night to now.
God knows, it's as much fun as stalking a fellow traveler.
"I just came to see this scenery casually, no one said that I couldn't come to this North Xuanshan!" She said.
Yes, it was Nangong Zhenyi who came from Langya Pavilion and almost got lost, the Nangong Zhenyi who almost slaughtered the city lord.
Nangong Zhenyi smiled. "I heard that monk say that you are from the north, but is it true?"
Xu Jinxin nodded.
"If you want to go back to the north, take me with you, and I want to go to the north too."
Xu Jinxin didn't answer him, but turned his head and walked forward.
Nangong Zhenyi followed cheekily.
She didn't know what to say herself. Just follow him, and wherever he goes, she is just a few steps behind her. He turned her head and looked away.
In this way, she felt that she was like that dog skin plaster, very clingy.
"The girl is here, aren't you afraid that an assassin will suddenly appear in the Qingwang Mansion?" Xu Jinxin rarely spoke.
But the words are straightforward, as if you don't like that person anymore.
"There are other masters in his house, and there are not many more than me."
Naturally, there is no less of her.
Nangong Zhenyi shrugged. "Speaking of which, I'm redundant, not to mention that I'm just returning the favor, not to protect him for the rest of my life."
Xu Jinxin nodded and asked again. "Do you know what this place is?"
Nangong Zhenyi smiled, looked at him, and said. "Northern Xuanshan, a great sect a few decades ago, is very famous, although it is a little regrettable."
Xu Jinxin nodded, turned around and continued to walk up. "It is said that there was a stampede here, and it was closed. Since you are from Pengzhou, you think you know it, right? ”
Nangong Zhenyi nodded, and then shook his head again. "I know about it. However, I am not from Pengzhou. I came up some time ago, but I was stopped halfway through, and their reason was that I was a girl and not safe. ”
"So what!"
"So, when I saw that you were here, I followed. To be honest, I also want to see what Tianqiao looks like. But it's not easy to enter, and it's not okay to break in. ”
"Don't worry, girl, I have a way."
Xu Jinxin said, and suddenly walked to the other side, and came to a cliff where Li Yi and Zhao Fei also went up the mountain before.
When the two of them arrived at the mountain and turned to look down, Nangong Zhenyi sighed, "It's so easy to come up, it seems that the management below is not strict." ”
"It's just a reason, not too much."
Xu Jinxin said and walked forward.
Nangong Zhenyi trotted to follow.
It is hard to imagine that Nangong Zhenyi, who is known as one of the three geniuses of Langya Pavilion, is a little unspeakably humble.
Xu Jinxin and Nangong Zhenyi stood in front of the mirror-like wall.
Nangong Zhenyi said. "I've heard that there is a power hidden in it, but I don't know if it's true or not, after all, it's just a folk rumor."
Xu Jinxin didn't answer her, but stood in front of the wall and looked at himself, and for a moment felt that his face imprinted on it was getting more and more blurred.
When they came back, Nangong Zhenyi asked again. "You're not going to just come and look in the mirror, are you? If so, why not come back at night, which is said to be brighter and like a light. I don't know. ”
Xu Jinxin asked curiously. "Tell me what?"
Nangong Zhenyi reached out and knocked on his arm. "I can't say, I can dance under the lamp."
Xu Jinxin smiled and said. "It's just to see it, and you still think you're here to play?"
"Who doesn't yearn for the sky, even if it's just to come and see."
Oh, yes! Who doesn't yearn for that day!
Which one of the four is not famous, not to mention Liu Yanchang, Yang Weining, Zhou Yilin, just one Sun Qing, it makes people fascinated.
The two of them stopped talking, but that's it, wherever Xu Jinxin went, she still followed!
Xu Jinxin was very helpless, but he was just helpless, he just felt that this girl was really unpredictable.
They went to the famous imperial capital, and it is said that the main courtyard is in the Fanwai Academy in Nanmu.
The two of them stood on the high wall on the side of the academy and looked at the little girl who was studying seriously.
Nangong Zhenyi was curious. "Who is she?"
"I picked it up a year ago, and I thought she was my sister, but it's still good-looking?"
"Hmmm! I must have grown up to be nobody, but I don't know if I have seen that gentleman in this academy. ”
"That gentleman is so good-looking. This is only a branch of the courtyard, and it is said that almost no one has seen what he looks like on the side of the main courtyard of Nanmu. ”
"It's also said that the world hates him, and they can't wait for him to die without a burial, where do they want to appear in front of everyone."
"You hate him too!"
"I don't know, I can't make a mistake, and what he said is not unreasonable, it's just more accurate."
Xu Jinxin smiled and turned away.
Nangong Zhenyi followed and asked. "What? Don't go inside and take a look. ”
"She's fine now, and I still have important things to do this time, so I won't go in."
"Looks like you care about her."
Xu Jinxin didn't speak, just walked forward, and she followed again.
In the end, she followed directly to the hut where Xu Jinxin lived before leaving.
She said as she turned. "I know you live here, but I just don't want to bother."
It's kind of like a child.
The monk looked at Nangong Zhenyi's distant back and looked at Xu Jinxin. Said. "This girl is really interesting, you should be careful."
"It's just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, can you still kill me?"
The monk of empty desire spread his hands. "Forget it, I don't understand these things, so it's useless not to tell you. Back to the topic, I have a busy day today, and I can be regarded as a gain. ”
The two men entered the house and said to the guests outside. "Amitabha, it's closed today, please come back tomorrow!"
Then he closed the door.
"How is my brother asking?" Xu Jinxin hurriedly asked.
"It is said that she went south in order to stalk someone. If you guessed correctly, it should be in Quling City at this moment. As you said, assassination is extremely dangerous. Even! ”
"Who is that man? Is she in danger? ”
"I don't know, it's mostly dangerous. But don't worry, she's not alone. ”
"That's good."
"And." He was about to speak, but he shook his head and said. "That's it! I won't explain much about this matter, and you can solve your own affairs. ”
Although Xu Jinxin didn't know what he wanted to say, he could probably guess a thing or two, in fact, he had also heard about it.
"In that case, then I'll leave tomorrow."
"So fast."
Empty desire was a little overwhelmed, he thought that he had finally come to Pengzhou once, and he should stay longer, but he didn't expect it.
"You know what I want to do most at the moment."
"That's it! Then you are careful. He shook his head and smiled. I wanted to find some medicine for you to defend yourself, but I know that with your current strength, I'm afraid you won't need it. ”
"Thank you! If there is really something unexpected in the future, I hope my brother will help me take care of her. ”
"You and my brother, if nothing else, even if you have always been like this, I will take care of her to grow up. At the moment, she is doing well in Fanwai Academy. ”
Xu Jinxin nodded. "I want to take a break, a lot of things are going to trouble my brother."
"It's okay, it's all owed to you after all."
This sentence seemed like sarcasm, but Xu Jinxin didn't look back.
The next day, Xu Jinxin led the horse and stood outside the door of the store called "Tongtian Avenue", and said goodbye to empty desire.
"I'm going to the south, I don't know when I'll see you again, I hope my brother will take care of himself."
"Yes."
"Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
Xu Jinxin jumped on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and galloped south.
The Void Monk sighed and said. "Hope everything is well."
He turned, and several children stood in front of him, expectant, and he pulled a stool from the shop and sat down, and spoke. "Later, the young man became a sword immortal at a young age, and in the north, the gods blocked and killed the gods and Buddhas. ……。 ”
However, in the days after Xu Jinxin left, the girl named Nangong Zhenyi always appeared at the door of the empty shop.
Empty and helpless, he finally walked to the girl and said. "I'm afraid that the girl has something, so you might as well go into the house and talk about it."
"There's Master Lao."
The monk named Empty Desire smiled slightly. "I'm just a monk who has been expelled from the school, and I can't be called a master. The girl called her like this, if people heard it, I am afraid that she would laugh at it for a lifetime. I'm older than the girl, and if the girl doesn't dislike it, she can call me an empty brother. ”
"Brother knows!" Nangong Zhenyi thought about it, but didn't know how to speak.
Because then she remembered that she didn't know what the boy's name was.
Empty desire poured her a cup of tea and said. "You're looking for him, aren't you?"
"Isn't he here?"
"Left two days ago."
"No wonder I haven't seen anyone all the time."
"I can see the girl's thoughts, whether the girl likes him or not."
Nangong Zhenyi's face flushed slightly, and he strongly defended. "No, I just think he's good-looking, and he doesn't have a relationship between men and women. What's more, I've never understood feelings. ”
Empty smile. "But no matter what, the girl always wants to see him, doesn't she?"
"Me."
She hesitated, because she really wanted to see him.
"If you want to see it, then go after it! At this time, it should be too late to go south. ”
When Nangong Zhenyi came back, she kept thinking about what she had said to her.
Somehow, I can't calm down for a long time.
The monk of empty desire hoped that she would chase after her to the south, at least fill the young man's heart with a thing or two, at least.
After all, he's alone now. Originally, he had his heart in mind about that person, and he already had a place in his heart.
She passed by a restaurant called "Zuixianzhai". The storyteller inside has a high-pitched voice, talking about the process of the young man who finally became a sword immortal after traveling in the south. But the final ending is not the same, juvenile tour.
She smiled. "It turned out that the peach blossoms were spreading in the city. It's you. What makes you desperate, how beautiful that girl should be! ”
She put away her thoughts and hurried back to her lodgings.
