Chapter 73: There are many strange things on the mountain

On the second day, before Mo Zifeng came to Luo Wangfu to see Mo Ruxue, Mo Ruxue was urged by the people sent by the concubine to pack up her things and move to the middle temple to pray for the royal blessing.

Xia He and Luluo were busy packing their things, and they had several bags in large and small bags.

"It's cold in winter, you have to put on the stove, and the princess's sable cloak has to be put on, and there are two more ...... in cotton clothes."

Yi Shanggong walked in front of Mo Ruxue and said respectfully: "The concubine said, going to the middle temple is not as good as being in the house, you can only bring a maid, and some ordinary things still need to be done by the princess herself." ”

"I understand, I'll just bring one. ”

She walked up to Xia He and Luluo: "You two stay at home, take care of the courtyard, this time I went to the middle temple to pray for the concubine and the prince, in order to show sincerity, I will do it myself, I will only take Yan'er!"

Xia He and Luluo glanced at each other, and said uneasily: "She didn't understand anything when she just came, what if something happened to the princess?"

"That's a royal temple, there are other people besides us, don't worry, just decide! Mama Zhang is old and the weather is cold, so stay in the mansion!"

Mama Zhang nodded.

Mo Ruxue took Murong Yan on the carriage to the Middle Temple, which was not in Kyoto, but on a mountain dozens of miles away from Kyoto.

The carriage was bumpy all the way, and Yi Shanggong followed them until they were settled before leaving.

The middle temple is really deserted, only a forty or fifty-year-old, blessed face surnamed Bai Steward and a fourteen or fifteen years old, fine sprinkler boy.

Even these two people had only met Mo Ruxue once on the first day they came, and they never saw them again.

Although I didn't see anyone, the inside and outside of the hall were cleaned very clean, and it was spotless every day.

So much so that Mo Ruxue wondered if they had met a master in the world, until the next night, she couldn't sleep with insomnia, and when she opened the door, the boy was already cleaning the courtyard, but he was cleaning with his eyes closed.

She stepped forward and stared at him carefully, although his eyes were closed, but the way he cleaned the board was very orderly.

"Hey, can you hear me?" Mo Ruxue leaned closer to him and asked softly.

The boy did not answer, but went on with his work.

"Wow, it looks like I've met a sleepwalker. You clean up slowly, I'll go to bed first. ”

Mo Ruxue went back to the house and slept until dawn, to see that the outside was cleaned clean, and the tables, chairs, and shrines in the hall were all clean.

The sprinkler boy must have been asleep at this time, and the white butler must have known about it.

Murong Yan stood behind Mo Ruxue and whispered, "Princess, don't you think this temple is haunted? I don't see anyone every day, but it's clean every day." Yesterday I saw that the shrine was covered with incense ashes......"

"Is there such a diligent ghost?"

"Yes, I heard my brother say that there is a kind of hard-working ghost, as long as he burns enough money to let him do anything, he will do anything!"

"Your brother is coaxing you! There are no ghosts or gods in this world, and the theory of ghosts and gods is all a lie. ”

"If you are disrespectful, you can't say it in the hall in the future!" A hoarse voice sounded, startling Murong Yan.

She turned her head and saw the hunchbacked grandmother in the kitchen carrying a large basket towards the side hall: "It's time to eat! ”

This kitchen lady looked old, her back was hunched at ninety degrees, her hair was gray, her face was wrinkled, and she looked seventy or eighty years old.

In fact, this grandmother is only forty years old, and she doesn't know what she has gone through to become so vicissitudes.

The food cooked by this grandmother is still very delicious, three kinds of vegetarian dishes a day, and they are made in different ways, but the time is tight, and the meal time is about fifteen minutes each time.

"Mama, why do you only give us one stick of incense to eat at each meal?" the next day, Mo Ruxue finally couldn't help it and asked.

"Lest you delay me from washing the dishes!

The reason for this...... Very reasonable!

Murong Yan twitched the corners of her mouth and quickly took two bites.

She has been regretting that when she arrived at Luowangfu on the first day, she didn't eat more meat, and the table was full of good dishes, she just symbolically ate a little, afraid that she would scare others if she gobbled it up when she first arrived.

Mo Ruxue bowed her head and was silent, and finished the meal in three or two bites, this temple was too different from what she thought.

The white butler walked in with a smile, and when he smiled, Mo Ruxue remembered Maitreya Buddha, who really looked alike.

"Princess, from today onwards, you will chant for three hours, if it is convenient for you, we can start now?"

"Chanting, is it chanting Nan Wu Amitabha?" she was afraid that she would fall asleep before she could recite herself.

The white steward smiled and waved his hand: "Almost, there are many Buddhist scriptures in our hall, let's start with the simple ones!"

Mo Ruxue had a bitter face, and reluctantly moved her steps, she had to find a way to get out of here, and chanting scriptures every day was too grinding!

"Don't think about leaving, the ice and snow outside are closing the road, don't look at the sun shining on the mountain, in fact, it's already freezing and snowy outside. The white butler seemed to know Mo Ruxue's thoughts, and spoke at the right time.

Mo Ruxue didn't believe it, it stands to reason that the more mountains should be colder, how could it be that this is a sunny day, and it is snowing heavily below, this is not logical!

This old god wants to deceive her, but she has no door! She is an intellectual woman with a higher education in the 21st century.

At night, she sneaked down the mountain, and no one was watching them anyway, so it shouldn't be difficult to escape.

Mo Ruxue sat there cross-legged, and after reading with the steward for less than half an hour, she fell asleep.

I'm so sleepy! my eyelids are too heavy......

“Dua

g", scared Mo Ruxue for a while.

"What's wrong, what's wrong? Is the house going to collapse?"

She turned her head blankly to meet the resentful eyes of Maitreya Buddha's steward.

"Princess, how can you doze off in front of the Buddha? You are here to pray for blessings, not to enjoy blessings!"

Mo Ruxue nodded stubbornly, praying for blessings and a fart!

The palace is not a good person, so she doesn't pray for them, and it is impossible to live for 8,000 years!

Mo Ruxue looked at the sunny day outside the hall, she really wanted to go out to bask in the sun, it was strange to say, since she came here, it has been sunny every day for the past two days.

The mountains are planted with hardy pines and cypresses, which are so lush that she almost forgets that it is still winter.

Looking at it, she suddenly gritted her teeth, and in the leeward corner of the wall, Murong Yan was lying in the sun, snorting melon seeds while basking in the sun, and seeing Mo Ruxue staring at her, she smiled comfortably.

I was reciting the scriptures here bitterly, and my legs were numb, but she was fine, just forget it if she didn't come to serve her, and deliberately pulled the hatred value!

Thinking that she still needs her brother to help find out the whereabouts of Daido, she doesn't dare to offend this aunt.

Counting the days, today is exactly the third day, she stayed on this mountain, and she didn't know if Murong Chen knew about this place.

"Princess, can we continue?"

The white steward's face was completely blackened by Mo Ruxue, and an hour had passed, and she hadn't finished a single page.

"Lord Steward, I think the Buddha is the most important thing in my heart, a person who is a great traitor, even if he talks about the Buddha every day, the Buddha will not bless him. ”

"So, there's no need for us to recite it at all, maybe we're chattering here and disturbing the purity of the Buddha, and in the winter, who doesn't want to sleep back!, right?"

Mo Ruxue said that she had a good time, and folded her hands as she spoke: "I'm sorry, Buddha, it's really a sin for the disciple to make you pure! ”

The white steward kept a straight face: "If you are lazy, you will be lazy, where did you learn so many crooked theories! Then you can see for yourself, and remember everything in your heart." ”

Mo Ruxue nodded obediently: "You go and get busy first! The temple is so big, you can't do without the steward at all times, you have worked hard!"

"Okay, I'll go elsewhere first, and I'll have to memorize ten pages of scripture today. ”

"Don't worry, go get busy!"

As soon as the white steward left, she straightened her numb legs: "Oops, oops, the legs are numb and painful......"

Murong Yan held a roasted white potato in her right hand, ate it while walking, walked to Mo Ruxue's side and handed her a roll of paper: "My brother's letter to you." ”

"Where's your brother, when did he give it to you?"

Mo Ruxue asked in surprise, she didn't see anyone enter the yard at all.

"He didn't come, he was passed on by carrier pigeons. ”

"Then how are you sure that your brother gave it to me?"

"The carrier pigeons of the Heaven and Earth Alliance have special logos, and I know them all. ”

Murong Yan was busy eating baked white potatoes and replied absentmindedly.

"It's so hot, ahhh

"You leave some, I'm your master, I'll read the letter first, remember to peel it and leave some!"

"I'm still your life-saver!"

Murong Yan pursed her lips, but still left half of Mo Ruxue.

Mo Ruxue came to the room, closed the door, and opened the paper roll: Kyoto Shilipu Street, Yuelai Grocery Store!
