Time flickered, and more than half a month passed, and there was only less than a month left before the end of the year.

"Chinese New Year's Eve is less than a month, won't you go home to reunite with your family?" On the side of the Qinhuai River, Lin Yurou looked at the small passenger boat playing on the river, and suddenly asked the young man beside him.

"This year, I was going to go home with Master for the New Year, but now that he is gone, I don't want to go back. ”

"If I had a family like you, I would have gone back to be with them. Feeling a word, Lin Yurou pointed to a few small empty boats docked on the shore not far away, "The weather is good today, why don't we rent a small boat and row in this Qinzhun River?"

"Okay!" Li Ge did not hesitate when he heard this, and responded directly. Then he rented a passenger boat, rocked his oars, and played with Lin Yurou in the Qinhuai River like a couple. It was close to noon that the two returned the leased passenger boat and returned to shore.

"Last year, my aunt asked me what she thought of you, and after so many times of getting along, I think you are quite good. After going ashore, Lin Yurou suddenly came up with such a sentence.

"Yes. When Li Ge heard this, he smiled awkwardly, and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"yes, I think you're pretty good. Lin Yurou added, and then stopped talking. After the two walked silently for a while, there were bursts of cheers in a turning street not far in front of them.

"There should be a show in the street ahead, let's go, let's go see it. Hearing the cheers in the street, Lin Yurou said to Li Ge beside him with great interest, and then walked quickly to the corner of the street.

Behind the corner is a lively street, in the middle of which a large group of people gather around, and from time to time there are bursts of cheers. When Li Ge gathered around the crowd, he realized that it was a vaudeville show.

After swimming across the lake and watching the juggling, Li Ge returned to the thaumaturgical pavilion and found that the door of his wooden building was actually open.

"Could it be that the Jiang Pavilion Lord is looking for me for something?" Seeing the open door, Li Ge quickened his pace and hurriedly walked into the wooden building. As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a familiar figure by the fire in the hall, and after staying for a while, he walked quickly to the stove and shouted happily, "Qingxu senior." ”

"You're Li Ge? I haven't seen you for eleven years, and I almost can't recognize you little doll. Qingxu, who was originally sitting by the stove with a frown, saw Li Ge, got up and patted the latter's shoulder, and then turned his head to sit not far away, a little monk who was sitting at the table eating steamed buns yelled, "Clean the dust, call someone for Lao Tzu." ”

Hearing this, the little monk named Jingchen stuffed all the remaining half of the steamed buns in his hand into his mouth, and then walked to the old monk of Qingxu and glanced at Li Ge, his chubby hands folded together and performed a Buddhist ceremony, and said in a childish voice, "The little monk Jingchen has seen the second brother." ”

"Second brother, this ......" Li Ge was directly stunned when he heard this, he stared at the little monk and looked at it carefully, and found that he was about ten years old, with a fat head and big ears, clear eyes, and a lovely face, but his figure was much taller than the average ten-year-old child. In addition, his body is also slightly obese, and the whole person looks chubby.

"This is my apprentice who purifies the dust. Seeing the young man stunned on the spot, Qingxu touched his apprentice's bald head and explained with a smile.

"Hello Dust. After coming back to his senses, Li Ge walked to the little monk and gently pinched his chubby face, and then beckoned the pair of monks and apprentices to sit down, and poured two cups of tea, "Qingxu senior, why did you suddenly come to the thaumaturgy pavilion?"

"We'll talk about these things later. Qingxu sighed, and said helplessly, "I didn't expect that there were five of us at the beginning, but now there are four of us, and now I am the only one left." ”

Jingchen, who was sitting next to Qingxu, took the teacup by himself, drank all the tea in the cup, and as soon as his master finished speaking, he said, "Master, can I eat a few steamed buns?"

"Eat, eat, eat~ I know how to eat all day long, look at you, now you are about to eat into a meat ball. The old monk reprimanded his apprentice angrily, and then changed his words and said, "Go, you are only allowed to eat five, you know?"

"I see, Master. Jingchen nodded happily, then ran to the table to open the baggage, took out a steamed bun and was about to stuff it into his mouth, when he suddenly stopped. He swept his gaze like Li Ge, and asked in a childish voice, "Second brother, do you want to eat?"

When Li Ge heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said, "I won't eat it, you can eat it." ”

"My apprentice is good at everything, the only bad thing is greed. Qingxu looked at the apprentice happily eating steamed buns, and a loving smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After looking at it for a while, he came back to his senses and asked, "By the way, Li Ge, I heard Xiao Jiang say that Yurou's little girl is also in the thaumaturgy pavilion now." ”

"Hmm~ She's been here for more than half a month. ”

"You go and call that little girl, I haven't seen her in a long time. ”

"Okay~ I'll call now. Li Ge answered, and then got up and walked out of the house. After a while, he and Lin Yurou hurriedly ran back to the wooden building where they lived.

"Grandpa Qingxu!" After Lin Yurou entered the house, she saw the old monk in the house and shouted happily.

"Hello~ You little girl, the bigger and smarter you are. Qingxu got up and laughed.

After eating the steamed buns, the little monk with a leisurely face propped his hands on the bench. When he saw the master get up, he hurriedly got up, clasped his hands together and saluted Lin Yurou, "Little monk Jingchen, I've seen Sister Yurou." ”

"Grandpa Qingxu, this is your apprentice, right?" After Lin Yurou saw Jingchen, like Li Ge, she also walked up to the little monk, stretched out her jade hand and gently pinched his round face.

"When you grow up, we of the older generation don't have anything to worry about. After sitting down by the fire, Qingxu sighed and asked Li Ge, "You and your master came here last year, right?"

"Well, Master brought me here early last year. ”

"Last year, I couldn't come because I wanted to help the little bald man Jingchen survive the disaster. Hello~" Qingxu let out a long sigh at this time, and then said, "You tell me about the incident of Osan last year." ”

When Li Ge heard this, he glanced at Lin Yurou, and then opened his mouth to tell the truth about Wushan last year. After speaking, all four people in the room fell silent.

"It turns out that Mao Laogou's apprentice has returned to Maoshan to clear the door. After a long time, Qingxu's words broke the silence in the room, and then he got up and walked to the door to look, turned his head to the house, and said, "It's not early, let's go, let's go to dinner together, I have some things to tell you in the evening." ”

"Amitabha! The little monk's favorite thing is dinner, second brother, sister Yurou, let's go to dinner." Hearing this, Jingchen happily recited the Buddha's name, and then walked towards his master. Li Ge and Lin Yurou in the room looked at each other and smiled, and also followed.
