Chapter 4 Luo Lan seeks the Tao, and Wang Lin accompanies the Buddha
When Wang Lin woke up from his meditation, it was already dawn, and the moment he opened his eyes, the sun's rays just moved from the horizon to his body.
"What's wrong with me, why did I sit outside the door all night, and have such a strange dream. "Although I sat alone in the yard behind the door all night, I didn't feel any discomfort, and I was even more energetic than a good night's sleep.
Saying that, he was going to see Su's father and Su's mother, this is the rule of this era, sooner or later he must greet the elders in the family, this is the performance and sincerity of filial piety.
Walk through the wide road in the front yard and turn the rockery to the living room.
Su Jin and the Li family were indeed dressed and sitting in front of the hall, Su Luolan's eldest brother Su Mingde was also sitting quietly in the room, and the maids were sorting out things, mostly about Su Luolan.
looked all over the house, but I didn't see Su Luolan and the two Buddhist Taoists. However, Wang Lin didn't ask, but respectfully came to the hall and bowed with his hands, "The child has seen the father-in-law, the mother-in-law, and the brother Mingde." ”
"Lin'er doesn't have to be like this, you sat down all night yesterday, why don't you go to the back room to make up for sleep?" Su Jin raised his right hand and said.
"Father-in-law, although the child has been sitting all night, his spirit is very good, and for some reason, I think it is a question whether he can sleep tonight. But why did you get up so early, father-in-law, but you didn't see Sister Luolan?"
When Wang Lin asked this sentence, Li and Su Mingde looked obviously displeased. "Luo Lan went to the immortal boat with Daoist Zhang Taiyi, the elder of Qixia Palace, last night, if there is no accident in this life, you will never see her again. Su Mingde said without being salty, but the meaning of rejecting people for thousands of miles in his words was undoubtedly revealed.
Wang Lin paused for a moment, and his heart was empty all of a sudden, but his expression did not show any different colors, "Ah, then I want to congratulate Sister Luo Lan and my father-in-law, and the Su family will inevitably have an immortal in the future." ”
As soon as these words came out, a smile appeared on Su Jin's sad face, "Although Lan'er worshipped the immortal as a master, but if she can't do it in the future, it depends on her chance and hard work." It's you, Lin'er, yesterday Master Wuyan said that you would benefit a lot when you woke up, how do you feel?"
Wang Lin obviously didn't know what happened yesterday, "Back to my father-in-law, the child has no other feelings except that he feels very good. The Dao Master is gone, so the Master must have left too, right?"
Su Jin was just about to speak, but was preempted by the Li family, "Master Wuyan didn't leave, saying that he was destined for you, and he was still in the wing, you might as well worship the master as a teacher and become a little monk, it's better than being alone." ”
"Yes, Luo Lan is gone, and you are almost eighteen, so it's good to find a way out early," Su Mingde said.
When Su Jin heard his wife and children say this, his expression was slightly angry, but he sighed lightly, helpless.
The words of Li's mother and son made Wang Lin feel extremely uncomfortable, his face was slightly deformed by his clenched teeth, and a pair of eyes stared stubbornly ahead, neither looking at Su Jin nor Li, just staring at the front indifferently. But his heart was extremely uneasy, "I was going to leave in the next few days, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient." Now that Sister Loren has left, there is no reason for me to stay. In the past two years, I haven't eaten your Su family's meal in vain, and I should go well. ”
Wang Lin paused for a while and said, "Father-in-law, stepmother, brother Mingde, Wang Lin has been in Wumeng for two years. When I sent Sister Luo Lan back, I was going to leave, but thanks to my father-in-law and Sister Luo Lan, I didn't have to wander outside for the past two years. Wang Lin couldn't repay it, although he gave the Su family cattle for two years, but how to repay his father-in-law's kindness. However, Wang Lin has grown up, and it is time to make the original appointment, I decided to leave Wumeng to find my family, and my father-in-law's kindness can only be repaid in the next life. ”
After speaking, Wang Lin knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of Su Jin, and then resolutely turned around and walked towards the gate.
"Lin'er!" Su Jin stood up when Wang Lin knelt down, and when he walked towards Wang Lin, Wang Lin had already walked out. So Su Jin chased him out. "Su Jin, you don't care what he does, if he wants to go, let him go" Li said angrily to Su Jin. Su Mingde also said, "Father, Luo Lan was so embarrassed at the beginning, we have treated him well over the years, if he wants to leave, you just let him go." ”
"Shut up, what are you talking about!" Su Jin only said fiercely. And then he continued to chase out.
Wang Lin knew that Su Jin was behind, and his pace couldn't help but speed up a lot, only Su Luolan and Su Jin were good to him in this family, and he didn't want to face any of them when he left.
When he arrived at the door, Su Jin finally caught up with Wang Lin, "Lin'er, what are you talking about, don't worry about Mingde and them, go back with me." ”
"Father, I have made up my mind, and I want to find my family. You don't want to keep me. Wang Lin just replied.
No matter how Su Jin persuaded him, Wang Lin was leaving, and it was impossible to stay.
Today's tree is no longer yesterday's tree, today's wind is not yesterday's wind, the past is like smoke and rush, today's tree has a new height, today's wind has a new direction.
"Amitabha, Lord Sushi. The young eagle has grown up, why don't you let him fly high?" Just when the two sides were arguing, the monk Wuyan, who was carrying a duffel bag folded with cloth on his back, walked out, and a sentence blew into the hearts of the two of them in the early morning wind.
"Master, Lin'er has been lonely since he was a child, and before he came to my Su family, he used to beg for a living, and he had no fixed place to live, how could he live when he went out alone. And if there are many bandits today, and there are legendary demons and monsters no matter how far away, it is unknown how long he can live when he goes out, how can I rest assured. Su Jin said sadly.
"I've been wandering around alone since I was a child, and I've long been accustomed to being home all over the world, and I'll be fine when I go out, and I'm not young anymore, and I can solve many things by myself. Hearing Su Jin say this, Wang Lin's tone softened a lot, after all, in the past two years, Su Jin has treated him like a parent, but his determination to leave has not wavered at all.
Hearing this, the smile on his face was even worse, "That's it, Master Su, the monk and I are wandering the world, and I have no companion." Let the little benefactor go with me today, wash my clothes for the monk or something, and then I will pass on some skills to him, and then let him go alone when he is enough to deal with the dangers of the world, what do you think?"
"This is a good way, but it depends on whether Lin'er is willing or not, after all, it is not easy to become a monk, and it is not easy to be vulgar, and I don't know how his family is, so I went with the master for fear that it will be difficult to explain in the future. "Su Jin is willing to let Wang Lin and Wuyan go, after all, how bad can the people who are traveling with Daoist Taiyi go, and the picture of Daoist Chang transfiguring out of thin air and breaking through the sky last night shocked him too much.
Originally, Wang Lin was not very happy when he heard that the monk in front of him who didn't know where he came from was going to take him away, and his brows were furrowed.
However, when Wuyan later said that he wanted to pass on some of his skills, Wang Lin naturally thought of the group of peanuts that he saw behind the door yesterday, and it fell into the center of his eyebrows.
As soon as he thought of this, Wang Lin felt that this monk was a capable person, and it would be acceptable if he could teach him one or two. And Su Luolan's appearance appeared in his heart from time to time, from acquaintance to goodbye. Perhaps he has been thinking in his heart, in the future, Su Luolan asked the immortal, if he didn't have the corresponding opportunity, he should never see him again in the future.
"I am willing to go with the master, handle mundane affairs for the master, and travel the world with the master. After figuring it out, Wang Lin was willing to seize this opportunity and gamble on what skills this monk would pass on to himself.
Hearing Wang Lin's words, he smiled naturally, but his expression seemed to be a little excited. "Amitabha, good, good. ”
"In that case, let's go back and have breakfast, and see off the two of you, Master. Su Jin asked.
"Donor, please go back, it's not suitable to go back again when you get out of this door, fate is like this, Wang Lin and I will set off. Wuyan said, took off the luggage on his back and put it on Wang Lin's back and set off.
Su Jin took out two children's fist-sized silver and wanted to see them off, but neither Wuyan nor Wang Lin accepted it.
The sun has risen to three poles, Wuyan and Wang Lin just left, Wuyan looked calm, Wang Lin looked down at his shadow, gradually drifted away, and did not turn back once after all.
