Bordering the northern perimeter boundary, the mountain gradually becomes rugged, the spring rain lasts for two days, and the mountains are covered with green from a distance.

In the lead-blue rain curtain, the scholar was drunk and lying on the back of a donkey, holding a scroll and reading with relish, hanging a wine gourd in one hand, occasionally waving the sleeves of his robe, and the raindrops falling were all around.

The old donkey shook the bell around his neck, walking slowly, from time to time he bent down his head and rolled up the grass that came out of his head, and on his head, the toad tied to the rope grabbed the donkey's ears, looked at the gourd shaking in the scholar's hand, and muttered: "The old man just asked you to keep it, and you actually used it to hold wine." ”

He rolled his eyes, then estimated the hour, and said:

"Liangsheng, it's time to eat!"

The scholar in the back yawned, swayed down, but his steps were very steady, he didn't fall, he took the reins casually, and walked to a dilapidated thatched hut in front.

In the dark room, the clay pot was shattered, and only one wooden bed was unrepaired, and it collapsed on the ground.

Last year, a major drought caused countless people to leave their hometowns, some died on the road, and some people went away to seek a living.

Throwing away the reins, still under the eaves by the old donkey, Lu Liangsheng hung the gourd, stumbled to the door, sighed, and said.

"Passing by here, I want to stop and rest for a while, and I hope it will be convenient. ”

He staggered inside, waved his sleeves, and the cold wind blew in outside, sweeping the dust and withered grass on the ground to the corner, and sat down on the ground carelessly.

After leaving the capital, his clothes have not changed, and he still has a strong smell of alcohol, like a sloppy scholar.

The toad Taoist held the stiff dry food, put it in his mouth and grinded it twice, and spit it out to the ground, how could this kind of thing get into his mouth!

He put aside the dry food, carried the small scroll on his back, sat down with his ass, and propped his chin to look at the dripping rain.

"Alas, the teacher suddenly thought about the little Taoist priest. ”

"Let's make do with it first, Master, this He Liangzhou has just gone through a great drought, and there is nothing to eat. ”

Lu Liangsheng took a bite of the cake, and his fingertips pulled a page of "Mountains and Seas Atlas", this kind of strange novel, let him be fascinated on the road, since he knew that the kind of Renzhi recorded in it was real, sometimes he would wonder if he would have the fate to meet other fierce beasts or spirit beasts recorded in the book in the future.

Drunken looked at the ticking rain curtain outside the door, untied the black-veined gourd around his waist, opened the stopper with his mouth, poured a sip of wine, and lay down comfortably, reaching out to grab another piece of cake on the ground.

"The gourd for the teacher was taken by you to fill the wine, and now you still want to grab the food for the teacher?"

The toad hurriedly pounced, took the cake on the ground in his arms, and turned in one direction.

Hehe.

This scene, in the painting shaft, there was a chuckle of red pity, at this time the house was dim, and it was raining lightly outside, so it didn't hurt to come out.

Nie Honglian floated out of the scroll, squatted next to the scholar, leaned over and sniffed, and fanned her slender little hand under her nose again and again.

"Childe, don't drink it, you stink. ”

"Wouldn't it be better if the living were not entered?"

Lu Liangsheng closed the book, sat against the wall, and smashed the book in the palm of his hand.

Suddenly remembered, I didn't leave a message for my grandson. ”

On the other side, the toad Taoist sat cross-legged on the ground, turned his face, looked at the apprentice, his cheeks bulged and closed, squeezed so that the toad's eyes narrowed, and he snorted the cake in his mouth.

"If you have time to care about this, why don't you think about what you eat at night? ”

Red Pity propped her chin and floated around in mid-air, nodding.

"Yes, Childe, who are we waiting for if we are walking so slowly?

Quickly turning the pages of the book with his fingertips, Lu Liangsheng listened to the sound of the rain dripping outside the house gradually turning into a rattling sound, shook the wine bottle, and poured it into his mouth.

"It's just to see the old man, after coming to He Liangzhou, if he is still here, he should be able to feel it. ”

Speaking of this, the female ghost in the house suddenly turned her head to look out of the door, and the toad Taoist stopped chewing, holding the unground cake in her mouth, and fell to the ground bulgingly.

"It doesn't seem to be a monk. ”

Outside there was the sound of horses, and the sound of wheels, and for a moment someone shouted and screamed.

"Hurry up, tie the horse, and go in to shelter from the rain. ”

"It's coming. ”

"Hey, there's a donkey here. ”

"It should be the same as us, passing by to take shelter from the rain. ”

The sound of rustling footsteps came from far and near, and five men and one woman, as well as seven or eight-year-old children, hurried in with a body of moisture, and saw a scholar sitting on the ground, drunk.

A middle-aged man led by him patted the rain stains on his robe, and slightly arched his hand towards Lu Liangsheng, which was regarded as an abrupt greeting.

"I'm not the master here, I'm here to take shelter from the rain, you guys are free, you are free. ”

Lu Liangsheng leaned against the wall, the sleeves of his robe were spread, and he casually clenched his fists and arched, looking at a few people and a child over there.

It's really a familiar scene, the last time I met Chen Jing like this, I couldn't help but look at the child more.

The child was also looking over, his eyes were brown and blue, quite strange, looking at the scholar who was smiling at him, the child subconsciously gently pulled his father beside him, and whispered:

"Dad, let's go quickly, that scholar, and a big toad is a little weird. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the drunken Lu Liangsheng, then turned his gaze back and landed on the child's face with a stern look.

"Tuo'er, don't be rude. ”

"Oh. ”

Unconvinced, the child peeked at the scholar over there, and returned to his mother, where four men who looked like guards sat down and chatted in whispers.

"I thought it would be easier to walk after the drought, but when I came out, it rained heavily. ”

"Fortunately, Madame's mother's house is not far from here, and I don't know if there has been a disaster. ”

“...... Say less. ”

Listening to their accents, they should have come here from the Northern Zhou Dynasty to save their relatives.

Lu Liangsheng's drunken eyes were half-squinted, his gaze swept over them, he didn't want to pay much attention, looked at the gourd in his hand, and laughed, he couldn't be a courtier, it was better to be a wine fairy.

took a sip of cold wine into his stomach, as if he heard something, looked at the tattered window frame, and said with a smile:

"I don't know the guests from afar, and there are old people in the broken house. ”

A few people who were sheltering from the rain over there were suddenly said by the scholars, and they were attracted to look over, and at this time, a Buddha horn came from outside in the distance, and the sound was like a bell.

"My Buddha...... Mercy!"

Lu Liangsheng laughed, hearing this stumbling loud Buddhist language, he knew who was coming, but the few people who were sheltering from the rain over there were taken aback, turned their heads, and their faces suddenly changed.

I saw that outside the door, a fat monk hung Buddha beads, drenched in the rain and walked with his chest, and carried a big yellow cloth bag in his hand, bowed his head and turned sideways to retract his belly before he barely came in.

Fajing erected a seal to worship the Buddha to those people.

"Poor monk, Fajing, I've seen a few donors. ”

His eyes were like Lu Liangsheng, and he glanced at the child next to the woman, and then came to the opposite of the scholar and sat down cross-legged with a red face.

"Lu Daoyou, don't come, it's okay. ”

Only then did those people know that this monk with a full face and a round waist had come to see a sloppy scholar, one was as big as a mountain, sitting cross-legged on top of his head and almost reaching the roof, and the other was well-proportioned, handsome and full of alcohol.

The two of them are sitting opposite each other like this, which is quite strange no matter how you look at it.

The middle-aged man remembered what his son had just said, and lowered his voice towards the four guards and his wife.

"It's not easy to stay here for a long time, so let's hurry on the road. ”

Several people quickly cleaned up and took the two-eyed child out, and after a burst of horses and chariots, they drifted away in the rain.

Lu Liangsheng didn't look at the group of people who left, handed the gourd over, and raised it.

"Did the master see that kid just now?"

"Born, Spiritual Root. ”

The fat monk's cultivation is much higher than that of Lu Liangsheng, and when he came in, he saw the difference at a glance, but he didn't dwell on this matter.

Shaking his head and refusing the wine bottle, he asked:

"Lu Daoyou, why did you come to He Liangzhou?"

"Nothing to do, walk around at will, and meet the old people along the way. Lu Liangsheng took a sip of wine, took out a bag of dry food from his sleeve, all of which were cakes bought on the way, gave one to the monk, and said with a smile:

After that, if I want to go to the Northern Zhou Dynasty to see, as the saying goes: it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books. But why is the master still in He Liangzhou?"

The monk was free and easy, and Fajing sniffed the cake, as if he hadn't eaten it for a long time, and took a big bite and stuffed it into his mouth to chew, and even wiped the crumbs from his mouth together.

"He Liangzhou, also, many homeless, people, poor monks everywhere, running around, handed back to the government for settlement, if there is, willing to practice, poor monks take them, they go back, Ten Thousand Buddha Temple. ”

Lu Liangsheng was slightly stunned, he also knew what the monk wanted to do before, but he didn't expect that he would continue to do it after so long.

Get up and spread your wide sleeves and bow to Fajing.

"The master is a virtuous person, and he is not much better than some people. ”

The monk stood up on his knees, waved his hand, and stammered:

"When...... No, poor monk, but learn from Lu Daoyou, sacrifice yourself for good, it's just that. ”

The head slammed into the beams, the skewed roof fell down, thatch and bricks were scattered all over the ground, and the old donkey outside was drenched in the rain, shaking the reins and screaming.

The two stood in the middle of the roofless room, looked at each other, and suddenly laughed.

Hahaha –

- Hahahaha!

The loud laughter spread, and the falling rain line instantly shook and pushed away, and in the distant rain curtain, several people who left in a hurry heard these two laughs, and trembled, urging the horses to be more anxious.

"Let's go, let's go!"

"Drive!"

............

After the laughter, the rain line fell vertically again.

"It seems that I can't talk to the master for a long time today. ”

The scholar waved his robe and cast a spell on the old donkey over there to avoid water, tied the black-veined gourd around his waist, and suddenly remembered something.

"When the master returns, you might as well do me a favor. ”

"Good!"

"The master agreed without asking what it was?"

The fat monk touched his stomach and smiled, picked up the rhubarb cloth bag and put it on his shoulder.

"Your business is not evil. ”

Lu Liangsheng also laughed, lifted the bookshelf and put it on the donkey's back, picked up the master on the ground and put it in the compartment, and turned his head to face Fajing.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, after the master left He Liangzhou, if he had the opportunity to meet Sun Yingxian, tell him that I went to Northern Zhou. ”

After speaking, he thanked him and led the old donkey slowly to the rain curtain.

"Master, farewell!"

Fa Jing bowed to the distant scholar and Buddha.

"Lu Daoyou walks slowly. ”

Ding Ding ......

The sound of bells was still faintly heard in the rain.
