Chapter Forty-Seven: The Hatred of the Past
By the time Nan Tianyi and the two returned to Mu Mansion, it was already evening.
Today can be said to have turned half of Luoshui City, even if Nantian has profound skills, he can't help but feel a little tired.
On the contrary, Wu Man'er is alive and vigorous, and he looks extremely excited, probably after being away for many years and returning to his hometown, so he looks radiant, and the whole person is very happy.
When I got back to my room, I had a sloppy meal, and after asking Lu'er where the crazy girl was, I went to bed early.
Time flies......
In the next few days, in addition to guiding Wu Man'er to practice and polish martial arts every day, he went out to play, and Lu'er also came to be interested and came together to have a lively time.
Until the day when Bu Chengkong instructed him, he carried the sheepskin roll that Bu Chengkong handed over to him in his arms, and prepared to meet his old man.
Intuition told me that the injury that Bu Chengkong suffered that night was related to the old man he said, and he also knew a little about Bu Chengkong's early years, which can be said to be to the point where enemies are everywhere.
Nan Tianyi secretly guessed in his heart that the old man, who was inseparable from eight or nine, must have come to seek revenge.
However, Bu Chengkong's attitude is also very ambiguous, as if there is something unspeakable, Nantian doesn't want to think about it more, and when he sees people, everything will naturally understand.
As a result, when he went out, he ran into a deer, and he insisted on going with him, grabbing one of his arms and dangling it, Nantian was speechless when he held his forehead, so he had to take her with him.
Nan Tianyi took the extremely fierce horse by the way, and when he saw Nan Tianyi, he looked extremely intimate, and the huge horse's head flattered Nan Tianyi, looking very happy.
All the way out of the city, to the mountains and rivers under the monument, I saw a person sitting under an old tree in the distance.
When I got closer, it was the blind old monk I had encountered.
"Master, meet again!"
Nantian got off his horse and stepped forward to salute.
"Oh, it's the donor, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. Empty Yin heard the voice, and a smile appeared on his withered yellow face.
"Bad Monk ......"
Lu'er grimaced and muttered quietly to the side.
Nan Tianyi glanced at Lu'er helplessly, his heart moved, and he asked to the empty seal: "Master, why are you interested in sitting here today?"
"The old monk has an appointment with an old man here, so he came early to wait!"
Nan Tianyi suddenly smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I came here today to make an appointment for an acquaintance." ”
Kongyin's complexion changed slightly, and he quickly calmed down, and said slowly: "It's indeed a coincidence, I hope we don't have to make an agreement." ”
Nantian Yiyi: "What if it's really an agreement?"
Kongyin clasped his hands together and said in a low voice, "That old monk will be very disappointed." ”
Nan Tian took a step forward and said slowly: "The old man of the master is called a step into nothing. ”
"Alas, it seems that the donor did make an appointment with me. The empty seal was silent for a long time before he sighed.
A long sigh contains countless sorrows, like a sad sigh.
"There's one thing he asked me to pass on to you!"
As he spoke, Nan Tianyi took out a parchment scroll wrapped in satin from his bosom and put it in Kongyin's hand.
The empty seal groped with his hands for a while, and his face moved, and finally there were two lines of tears, which slowly left from his withered face, and the tears hit the parchment roll, and his face was sad, and he wept in a low voice.
"Senior brother, why is this old monk crying?"
Lu'er tugged at the corner of Nan Tianyi's clothes and asked in a low voice.
It wouldn't be because he said a few words by himself, and the old monk cried like this!
Nan Tian thought about it for a while, and sighed slowly: "Maybe it's ...... I think I'm reminded of some sad things!"
Lu'er nodded his little head thoughtfully, and when he saw the old monk's appearance, he didn't know why......? When we meet in the future, I won't scold him anymore!
The empty seal wept for a long time, his empty eyes were wet and red, holding the parchment roll, his withered hands trembled slightly, and he looked very embarrassed.
"Donor, would you like to hear a story. ”
..................
I was an abandoned orphan, I was taken back to the temple by the master since I was a child, and it was the master and the brothers who took care of me, and later, the master gave me the Dharma name Empty Seal, and I was happy for a long time because I had a name.
In the temple, life is very good, the brothers treat me better, when the brothers go to the back mountain to fetch water, they always put me in a bucket, dangling, so interesting.
When I was eight years old, I secretly went up the mountain with Senior Brother Kongxing and Senior Brother Kongming, and Senior Brother Kongxing caught a hare, which was very cute and delicious, and Senior Brother Kongming said that the real desire is not the desire of the tongue, but the heart.
It was very profound, and I didn't actually understand it, so I just nodded, but then for some reason the master found out, and the master was very angry and locked us up for a month.
Later, Senior Brother Kongxing said indignantly that Senior Brother Kongjue must have told the master, because he was not called this time.
After a while, the master let me raise a little rabbit of white velvet, white, very cute, every day in addition to making sundries in the temple, but also to hoe back some fresh grass, watching it grow day by day, is the happiest thing.
But there are some troubled things, as it grows up, the eyes of Senior Brother Kongxing look at it more and more strangely......
When I was ten years old, I went down the mountain with my master for the first time, and when I knocked on the door, I was so nervous that when the master's house opened the door and came out, the words that had been brewing for a long time came to my mouth, but I couldn't say a word.
In the end, with the encouragement of the master, I turned into a mess, I don't know why, it was just an ordinary bowl of somen noodles that day, but the taste was never as delicious.
At the age of thirteen, he is already a great monk, and several scriptures have been memorized, but unfortunately Senior Brother Kong Lun is sick, and there happens to be another Dharma ceremony, so the master asked me to go instead of Senior Brother.
The family cried very sadly, which made me unconsciously very sad, and I memorized the scriptures wrong several times, but fortunately, the voices of the brothers were loud and covered my voice.
Later, I asked the master why they were crying so sadly, and the master touched my head and said that it was because their relatives had traveled far away and would not be able to see each other for a long time.
I nodded as if I understood.
After another five years, life in the temple is plain and quiet, but it is very full and peaceful, and the most interesting thing is that I have a few more junior disciples, haha, finally I am not the youngest.
A rabbit has also become a litter, and Senior Brother Kongxing always wants to fight their ideas, but fortunately, I watched them closely, and they can have a big family today.
I thought that I would be in the temple for a lifetime, the flowers bloomed and fell, the leaves fell back to the roots, guarding the temple like home, and accompanying the people in the temple all my life......
In those days, it was his turn to guard the vegetable garden on the back mountain, and in the evening, I heard a loud bell from the temple, I had never been so anxious, something must have happened!
Hurriedly rushed back to the temple, saw the senior brothers and younger brothers gathered at the door of the main hall of the Buddha Hall, and hurriedly ran over, only to see that between the master and several uncles, there was a bloody person lying all over.
Vaguely, I recognized that person was Uncle Duye.
Uncle Watarian, I'm not very familiar with it, because I've been in the temple for so many years, and I've seen it more than a dozen times, and according to the brothers, Uncle Watari is a very strange person.
Senior Brother Kongjue secretly told me that the first time the senior brothers ate meat, it was made by Uncle Watari.
And Uncle Watari rarely stays in the temple, and sometimes he is full of alcohol, and the master is always very angry, and when I see the master angry, I am also very angry.
Therefore, I have always had a bad impression of Uncle Watari.
At that time, Uncle Watari was obviously seriously injured, and I was surprised, because Uncle Watari was very martial arts, and no one in the temple could beat him except for the master.
is such a murderer, and he was beaten so miserably.
I asked a few senior brothers, but they didn't know what was going on, and before they had time to take a closer look, a few senior uncles came out and waved us to disperse, and I had to go back to the back mountain and continue to guard the vegetable garden.
That night, lying in the grass hut, tossing and turning, it was difficult to sleep for a long time, and in the middle of the night, I don't know if it was an illusion, I always felt that there was something outside.
Walking outside, in a daze, a red light was shining and jumping, it was fire, and from a distance, the temple fell into a sea of fire......
It's not good, the temple is watery!
I woke up suddenly, and ran down the mountain like crazy, feeling very anxious, what happened to the master? What happened to the brothers? Don't have any accidents!
When I finally ran back to the temple, I saw a scene that made my eyes bloodshot and my eyes cracked.
The master stood in the middle of the fire, and there was another person next to him, it was Uncle Duye, and he was merciless, and a palm was imprinted on the master's chest.
No!!!
I roared loudly, and the madman ran over, but he was knocked away by Watari and fainted weakly......
I don't know how long it took, I woke up leisurely, the sky was already bright, the temple was already in ruins, and some places were still burning flames.
But what about people! Where have all people gone? Is this a dream?
I hurriedly got up and ran into the rubble, and what did I see......
No, all this must be fake, yes, it must be so!
The master's cold body was lying on the ground, and the familiar brothers were also broken, and the blood had not dried up, and I was the only one left alive in this familiar temple.
At that time, I didn't know how to bury my master and brothers, in front of the continuous grave, I cried for a long time, crying my eyes blurred, crying did not see the light of day, the last two lines of blood and tears, crying blind.
I knelt in front of the collapsed half-body Buddha and swore that even if I chased to the ends of the earth, even if I chased the Shixi Sea withered......
I, I must take revenge!
