Carefree Scholar

Chapter 308: Brother, stay behind!

Views:

Naturally, the Li family in Beijing does not have such a baby as a rocking chair. Li Yi leaned on the small chair, looked at the white shadow standing on the wall, and said lazily: "Xiao Yier, could it be your childhood nickname? Why never Have you heard Ruyi mention it?"

Liu Ruyi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this title seemed to suit her too. She originally wanted to use it to make fun of Li Yi, but she didn't expect to include herself in it instead.

A look of annoyance appeared on Qiaoqiao's face, and the servant girl who was anxiously calling for her to come down from the wall jumped down from the top of the wall.

"When are you going to go back?" Walking to Li Yi's side, holding the sword in his arms, he said coldly.

Miss Liu Er, who is neither big nor young, almost never calls him brother-in-law. Li Yi has long been used to this. Perhaps since that day when she was riding on the horse, she looked at him with the eyes of looking at prey, and said "take away" At that time, I didn't plan to be a well-behaved sister-in-law.

"We will leave after the old lady's birthday. If we take a boat, we can go back in only two days."

Liu Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, didn't ask any more questions, and changed the subject, "The old lady is going to offer incense in a temple outside the city tomorrow. I'll go with her. Are you going?"

"No." Li Yi said simply shaking his head.

"Forget it!" Miss Liu Er said coldly, and her toes flew up to the wall, causing the maid opposite to scream.

Li Yi looked at the courtyard next door. Miss Liu Er, who had just turned seventeen, was still a child. Although she always pretended to be mature on weekdays, she couldn't change her girlish nature.

For a long time, Ruyi has protected her and Xiaohuan very well. Although Ruyi has high martial arts skills, her mind is rare and simple. Beneath her cold appearance, there is a lively and playful heart.

Ruyi knew that she didn't want to get too involved with the Li family, so she didn't come with him. Instead, she let Ruyi go with him. Protection was a reason, and she also wanted to let her go for a walk, to release her.

Thinking about her character, Li Yi couldn't help but start to worry about her future for Ruyi...

Although it is said that the beginning of spring is only a few days after the Spring Festival, the weather has really started to warm up, making people feel a little bit of spring, and we still have to wait until after the Shangyuan.

The wind in Hui is smooth, the sky is bright and clear, the sun is shining brightly, and the snow in the mountains has melted long ago. Today is a suitable day for traveling.

Every year on the 17th day of the first lunar month, a temple fair is held at the Hanshan Temple outside the city. At this time, believers from all over the world will go up to the mountain to worship, and the scholars will offer some incense, praying for high school in the coming year. The young lady is looking forward to finding a good husband as soon as possible, and the newly married woman often goes to worship Guanyin to send her son...

In a feudal society, it is normal for the people to be feudal at all. There is no scientific credibility, so you have to believe in something...

The old lady is also going to Hanshan Temple to fulfill her vows today, accompanied by a large group of servant girls, accompanied by more than a dozen guards, and even escorted by a heroine with superb martial arts skills. As for Li Yi, he just went out for a walk to relax and relax.

The Hanshan Temple is naturally on the Hanshan Mountain, and has nothing to do with the Hanshan Temple of "Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the bell to the passenger ship at midnight".

A short mountain with an altitude of more than 100 meters was famous because of the Hanshan Temple, which was very popular. Li Yi sat in the carriage, and after leaving the city, he started bumping all the way.

He wasn't the only one in the carriage, the chubby bear was gnawing on the fat, oily chicken leg in his hand, and he didn't pay attention to Li Yi at all. For the bear, this chicken leg is better than this one. The elder brother who emerges is much more interesting.

If Li Yi remembers correctly, the brat in front of him is called Li Yingcai, the son of his third uncle Li Mingyuan. There are only a few bones left, and there is no trace of meat on them, which shows that this kid is definitely a veteran at eating chicken legs.

Until he sucked all ten fingers, took out a few pieces of candied fruit from his bosom and began to stuff them into his mouth, Li Yi knew that it was not without reason that this brat grew up so strong at such a young age.

As if he felt a little embarrassed to eat alone, the bear child took out a piece of preserved fruit, looked at it reluctantly, and handed it to Li Yi.

Li Yi just saw him lick that hand all over like a bear's paw, looked at the preserved fruit he handed over, smiled and shook his head to express his rejection.

The bear boy was obviously very happy, and he stuffed the preserved fruit into his mouth as soon as he changed hands.

Hanshan Temple is not far away, and after about half an hour's effort, we arrived at the foot of Hanshan Mountain.

The stone steps paved with bluestone spread from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and many people have already climbed up the stone steps.

The old man was inconvenient, and the carriage took another flat mountain road. The bear kid didn't know what he ate just now, and he started farting non-stop while sitting in the carriage. Li Yi had no choice but to jump out of the carriage and tell the driver that he planned to hike up the mountain. Just meet up on the mountain.

The air outside is much fresher, and there is still a faint fragrance in the air. Li Yi noticed that there are many plum blossoms planted on both sides of the mountain road. The last two days are when the flowering period is in full swing, and the ladies wearing curtains on their heads are almost It was a hand, and the stone steps were covered with petals. Before Li Yi took a few steps, he saw a scholar in green clothes pick a plum blossom and put it on his head. He looked like a scholar of the Song Dynasty...

A bunch of bad guys, the good plum blossoms are broken into pieces, and they still regard it as an elegant thing, a few guys with flowers on their heads, who call themselves wits, recite poems against a bare plum tree …

The stone steps were not steep, but they were very long. It took Li Yi about a quarter of an hour to walk up the stone steps. When he reached the top of the mountain, he finally understood why he met so many young ladies and gentlemen along the way.

Hanshan Temple is not a lonely temple. In fact, the entire mountain top belongs to the scope of Hanshan Temple, including the surrounding plum blossom forest that can't be seen at a glance.

Taking Muli's ladies to visit the plum blossom forest together, murmurs and smiles came from Muli. The talented scholars spread a piece of plain cloth under the plum tree, sat cross-legged, toasted and drank, and recited a good poem, It's raining plum blossoms above...

When the peach and apricot trees were just bare branches, this endless plum blossom forest was indeed a good place for a picnic.

No wonder Hanshan Temple chose today for the temple fair. This plum blossom grove will attract many talents and beauties. After admiring the plum grove, and then going in to worship Bodhisattvas and Buddhas, they will naturally offer incense...

These bald donkeys really know how to pick their time!

Li Yi was naturally not in the mood to appreciate the plum blossoms by himself. Two coachmen stood guard outside the temple, saying that the old lady took everyone to the temple to offer incense, and she wanted to pay homage to a famous monk. Not coming.

Deeply taught by Marxism-Leninism, Li Yi did not believe in gods and Buddhas in the past, but since such unimaginable things as crossing can happen, what is impossible

Respectfully lit a stick of incense, threw a piece of broken silver into the merit box, and then started to tour the temple leisurely.

I don't like crowded places, and I only choose quiet trails. The antique temples also have a special charm, simple and heavy, which are not available in those temple attractions in later generations.

After passing through several arches, the crowd gradually became thinner, and when he walked out of the last moon gate, a plum blossom forest that was more prosperous than outside appeared in front of his eyes.

"Why is the benefactor worried?" An old voice came from within Merlin.

"Life is not satisfactory everywhere, how can you not worry?" The young man's voice continued.

Li Yi stood still, with an expression of interest on his face, he took a few steps forward, and in the depths of the Merlin, he saw the backs of an old monk and a young man.

Hearing what the young man said, the old monk casually pointed to a plum tree and smiled without saying a word.

Li Yi stood behind the two of them, staring at this scene in a daze.

Could this be the legendary Zen master and youth

The young man suddenly realized, and murmured: "The master means that the plum blossoms have survived the bitter winter before they have the fragrance they have today. The suffering is temporary, but as long as it passes, it will be the blooming spring?"

Li Yi really didn't want to spoil a perfect joke, so he covered his stomach with a smile and said, "No, what the master means is—Mei Qian, what a fart!"

"who?"

The young man turned his head abruptly and pointed at Li Yi who was standing behind him. Just about to speak, he opened his mouth halfway, with an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost.

Li Yi couldn't straighten up with a smile, arched his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back for a while, you guys go on, go on..."

It's not good to destroy other people's discussion of Zen. Li Yi planned to go out and laugh again, but he didn't look at the reactions of the old monk and the young man. They probably were still thinking about the meaning of what he said just now, and turned around and walked in the direction they came from.

Seeing Li Yi's reaction, a trace of doubt appeared on the young man's face. Seeing that he was about to go out, he hurriedly said, "Brother, stay!"

Hearing the young man's words, Li Yi's footsteps were even faster, and he thought to himself that if this guy didn't continue to discuss Zen with the old monk, why did he still rely on himself

"Stop!" Just as he was about to walk out of the moon gate, two figures suddenly flashed in front of him, blocking his way.

Seeing the two men standing in front of him, Li Yi froze for a moment, the expression on his face also looked like he had seen a ghost.
