Volume 3 The Observation of Absentness

Su Ziqing followed the handsome monk and trotted around, and walked around the Qinhuai River before throwing off the pursuers.

"Aunt Xiaodao, in other words, is this Jinling City such a big fight, the whole city is surrounded and suppressed, and the battle is really big enough. The handsome monk held on to the willow tree and kicked his breath, although his martial arts were not weak, but it still took a lot of strength to be chased.

Su Ziqing straightened her hair and said, "You, a thief and monk, must be a traitor, a great murderer, otherwise how could you attract people from the City Patrol Division?"

"I don't like to hear what you say, how can I be a traitor, and how am I so vicious. Is it wrong for the little monk to be chivalrous?"

The handsome monk frowned and sneered.

"Thief monk, you don't have to quibble, when I take you to the city patrol division, you can wash away my innocence. As he spoke, Su Ziqing's face turned pale, and he was about to make a move again.

When the handsome monk heard this, he hurriedly dodged and took a few steps back and said: "Aunt Xiaodao, don't mess around, I am close friends with your senior sister, and besides, there is something strange in today's matter, and the officials and soldiers are determined to put you and me to death." The little monk is not a person from Jinling, and he has never done anything lacking in virtue, as long as he sees your senior sister, everything will be clear again. ”

Su Ziqing is not stupid, the captain of the City Patrol Division will kill the killer without asking questions after he reports his name. There must be an unspeakable secret hidden in this. She looked around at the handsome monk in front of her, and she didn't look like a vicious person, so she said: "Thief monk, you can look back with me, when the time comes, if you can't tell clearly, you will look good at that time." ”

The handsome monk stuck out his tongue, and didn't take Su Ziqing's coercive words to heart at all, "Let's go, Aunt Xiaodao, you lead the way." ”

"It's not in shape!" Su Ziqing took a bite at the handsome monk and walked forward.

The two of them walked in front of each other, and a monk walked in Jinling City, causing many pedestrians to look sideways. The handsome monk looked at the flowers while walking, and when he saw the food, he went up, especially the one stained with meat, and his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to pounce on it and bite it hard.

The handsome monk's actions gave Su Ziqing, who was walking in front of him, a headache. A monk who has never seen such a monk does not abide by the precepts of Buddhism, and behaves exaggerated and obscene, if he hadn't doubted his identity, Su Ziqing would have avoided it far away.

She began to regret why she was nosy in the first place and caused such a big trouble, and her image of a fresh little Taoist girl was ruined by him.

On the Purple Mountain, Shoujian is a small Taoist temple. The two walked until it was dark, and then they went up to the Purple Mountain and came to the gate of Shouqingguan.

Su Ziqing returned to the temple, and his mood was much better, but he was worried that when he saw the master, how would he explain how to bring back a thief monk. She thought about it for a while and decided to make it clear to the handsome monk first.

"Thief monk, when you meet my master, don't talk nonsense, it's best not to talk, otherwise I won't be able to save you if something happens." ”

The handsome monk didn't answer her, Su Ziqing thought he was unhappy, so he said angrily: "Did you hear that?"

The monk still didn't speak, and looked at Su Ziqing blankly.

"Did you hear me?"

"Didn't you tell me not to speak? The handsome monk pursed his lips innocently. Su Ziqing was almost fainted by his words, and was about to count him down a few more words, when a little Taoist aunt who was about the same age as her walked over, "Senior sister, why did you come back, the master has been looking for you for a long time, and where did this monk come from?"

"If you come up from the mountain, is it still falling from the world? The handsome monk quipped.

"Shut up!" Su Ziqing glared at the handsome monk, and then turned to the little Daoist aunt and said, "Little junior sister, I'm going to see the master, but is the senior sister watching today?"

"The senior sister has just returned from the palace, and she is talking to the master in the house. Xiao Daogu nodded and replied.

"Okay, I'll go see the master now. ”

The two walked into the inner courtyard, the courtyard was brightly lit, and a kind-looking old Taoist aunt in the house was talking to a Miaoman woman, and her voice was very low.

"Master, the apprentice is back. Su Ziqing walked in curtly, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look up as if he had made a mistake.

"Ziqing, where have you been?" Before the Jingchen Dao Gu could speak, the Miaoman woman next to her asked first. Jingchen used to be strict, and his disciples were not allowed to go down the mountain without permission. Su Ziqing was bored in the temple today, so he ran down the mountain playfully and privately. The woman asked the first question, for Su Ziqing's sake, so as not to severely punish Su Ziqing by Jingchen.

"Senior sister," Su Ziqing raised her head and said very honestly: "I secretly went down the mountain today, I know I was wrong, master, you can forgive me this time." ”

Jingchen sat aside, looking at Su Ziqing with burning eyes, "I will punish you for cleaning the inside and outside of the temple for seven days, and then you will not be spared next time." ”

When Su Ziqing heard that it was just cleaning, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "If you know your mistake, there will be no next time." ”

"Tell me what happened to you today?" Jingchen asked.

"No, master, the apprentice just walked around the city and came back. Su Ziqing replied with a weak heart.

"Don't tell the truth yet," Jingchen said angrily: "Jinling City is looking for a monk everywhere, and it has nothing to do with you?"

When Su Ziqing heard this, he was stunned, and it seemed that he couldn't hide it, so he said: "Master, the apprentice didn't cause trouble, but he just met a monk, and he said that he was friends with his senior sister." ”

The senior sister on the side asked suspiciously, "What does the monk look like and how old is he?"

"That's what the little monk looks like, at such an age, haha. ”

At this time, the handsome monk Daxiao, who had been hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, walked in, saluted Jingchen and said, "Little monk Daoxi, I have seen Jingchen Dao Chief." ”

When the senior sister saw the handsome monk who walked in, she was stunned, it turned out to be him. Five years have passed, and I can't imagine that he has grown so long that he can't even recognize himself. She had mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know what to say.

His smile was still so sunny and his appearance was still so cynical. But as soon as she saw him, the senior sister felt very quiet, and she would leave all her troubles behind.

Time flies, it's been five years in the blink of an eye. Five years later, he had grown into a handsome young man, and he was five years older. Unconsciously, the senior sister was a little afraid to face the handsome monk, or she wanted to find a bronze mirror first to see if she was old.

Jingchen didn't answer, but turned her gaze to the Miaoman woman and sighed in her heart. Since his apprentice came back from Wu Yue five years ago, although his temperament is as cold and arrogant as before, he has always had some sorrows inadvertently.

Jingchen saw the sorrow on her body at a glance, as if the girl's heart was thinking about the man's general emotions, seeing the Miaoman woman's stunned appearance, Jingchen couldn't help but say: "Could it be related to the monk in front of you?" However, he is a monk. ”

"Daoxi?" Jingchen looked at the monk Daoxi carefully, and then said, "You are the monk who was arrested by the City Patrol Division?"

Dao Xi chuckled in his heart, how could this old Dao aunt speak so politely, do you still want to send me to see the official? Since Jingchen doesn't give him a good look, there is no need for him to put a hot face on someone's cold ass. So Daoxi ignored Jingchen, but said to the Miaoman woman: "Miss Li, I haven't seen you for many years, but your demeanor is still the same." ”

"Xiao Zuo," after calling out the name of the Daoxi layman, Divine Oracle Li didn't know what to say next. She wanted to ask why he was in Jinling, but she was too embarrassed to speak.

"Monk Daoxi," Jingchen coughed slightly, and said, "If you don't make it clear, Poor Dao will accompany you to the City Patrol Division." ”

Dao Xi was so provoked by Jingchen that he didn't get angry but laughed: "What does the little monk need to tell you clearly?"

"Arrogant," Jingchen said angrily, "As a monk, you don't chant sutras and recite Buddha in the Zen monastery, but you came to Jinling to make a fortune, and the poor Tao will teach you a good lesson today, a monk who does not abide by the precepts." ”

Saying that it was too late, he stood up quietly, and slammed his right palm towards Monk Daoxi's Heavenly Spirit Gai.

"Master, no. Li Divine Oracle Yu Su Ziqing and the two shouted at the same time.

A palm struck, Dao Xi was not flustered, sacrificed his hand seal, crossed his head, and took Jingchen's palm. There was a huge disparity in the skills of the two, although Dao Xi took it, but under the suppression of Jingchen's strong internal strength, he suddenly fell to his knees.

Jingchen was still about to make a move, but Li Divine Oracle hurriedly stepped forward to protect Dao Xi and pleaded: "Dao Xi Yu is a friend of the past, and the disciple will not believe that he is a wrongdoer, please don't care about his previous words, let him explain one or two." ”

Jingchen looked at Li Shen's eager look and shook his head slightly. The reason why she didn't say anything about Daoxi, and even forced her, was just to confirm the guess in her heart: whether the disciple she valued the most really cared about the monk in front of her.

Now, Jingchen saw the thoughts of Divine Oracle Li clearly, so he didn't make another move, "Monk Daoxi, do you have anything to say." ”

Dao Xi ate a palm that was heavier than Mount Tai, and his face was embarrassed. Jingchen figured out Divine Lee's thoughts, and Daoxi now saw that Jingchen was deliberately tempting, so he was no longer angry with her.

"The seniors are highly skilled and have been taught in the next. Dao Xi stood up from the ground, "Fit and reckless, there are many offenses, the little monk apologizes to his seniors." ”

"Monks should be like monks, and don't break the rules of Buddhism. Jingchen said pointedly. She is obviously teaching Daoxi, but in fact, she is like Li Shen's oracle to point out Daoxi's identity, he is a monk, you can't do it.

When Li Shenzhi heard the master say this, he didn't feel good in his heart. Five years ago, she may not have known what was on her mind, but as time passed, she became clearer and clearer about what she was thinking.

When she met him in Qingzhou, she just regarded him as a flamboy, timid and scared stinky boy at that time. But with the contact, I found that although this stinky boy behaved frivolously, he was affectionate and righteous, and he did not hesitate to live and die for himself, for his brother, and was not afraid of danger.

And the most memorable thing for Oracle-Li is the weirdness in him that he doesn't care about anything, but cares about everything. Because he is different from most people in this world, he is destined to leave an indelible mark on the heart of Oracle.

She likes him, but she just doesn't want him to know. And now, that he is a monk, she no longer dares to face him. I'm afraid that when I see her, my heart will be messy, it will hurt, and I will accidentally say what is on my mind.
