The sky was gloomy, and the color of the sky changed from its previous blue color to a color like water soaked in a dirty rag.
Lu Bai heard Qihao go to Liangshan Temple after breakfast, and persuaded him, "My son, seeing that it will rain on this day, shall we go to Liangshan Temple another day?" Not afraid of the assassin, but worried that Qihao would be soaked. The rain catches cold.
Qi Hao smiled and said, "It will be hot when the sun comes out, and the weather is just right now." He will not change what is decided.
Lu Bai said disapprovingly, "Even if the sun is out, this mountain is very cool. And once it rains, the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, and we may not be able to come back then."
"If you don't come back, I will stay on the mountain for one night. I have been busy during this time and I just have a rest." Even if it doesn't rain, he will stay on the mountain for one night. It's just that it is inconvenient for him to tell Lu Bai.
Lu Bai was speechless. It would be better to rest at home. Why did he even ran up to the mountain. Lu Bai couldn't, so he could only look at Yi Kun and Yu Zhi, hoping that they could stop them. It's a pity that the two of them didn't seem to wince at him.
After breakfast, everyone set off for Liangshan Temple. When he set off, Lu Bai watched Qi Hao mount his horse, with doubts flashing on his face.
Feeling someone watching him, Qi Hao turned his head. Seeing that it was Lu Bai, he nodded slightly at him.
Out of the city, Lu Bai rode to Yi Kun and said in a low voice, "Boss, why don't you stop Shi Ziye?" If it wasn't for Shi Ziye to go to Liangshan Temple in such weather, he would have to say that his mind was flooded. In case of heavy rain, you can't get drenched.
Yi Kun glanced at Lu Bai and said, "Today is the sacrifice day of the grandfather and grandfather of the world." After the death of the elders, the children and grandchildren will go to the temple on his sacrifice day.
"Oh, that's it!" He said that Shi Ziye always has rules in his actions, why is it so strange this time, that's how it is.
Liangshan Temple is located on the top of the mountain. The mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is rugged. However, the ancient trees are towering along the way, the grass is green, and the scenery is still very good.
Feeling the slight coldness on his face, Lu Bai touched his face and said, "Sir, it's raining." It was a crow's mouth, saying that it was raining when it was raining.
Yi Kun Yang said, "Go faster and arrive at Liangshan Temple before it rains!" Everyone knew that it might rain in such weather, so everyone brought rain gear.
The rain is getting bigger and bigger. When it reaches halfway up the mountain, the rain rolls down like a broken string. Although it doesn't hurt people, it's also uncomfortable. Moreover, the heavy rain made their vision a little blurred, and they couldn't see clearly from ten meters away.
Yi Kun was a little worried, and said to Qi Hao, "Sir, shall we stop and rest for a while? We will go up the mountain when the rain stops." God is true too, why choose to rain today! It's hard to walk under such heavy rain.
It was only half an hour before the rain stopped. Although I was guilty, the air after the rain was particularly fresh, and the sky was blue as if it had been cleaned.
Lu Bai pointed to the sky and said, "What a beautiful rainbow."
The seven colors of yellow, red, orange, green, blue, cyan, and purple are intertwined in one piece and are shining each other, and the rays of light hung across the azure blue sky.
Qi Hao smiled and said, "It's beautiful, and it's worth the rain this time." It's rare to see such a beautiful scenery, but the only pity is that I can't share it with my family.
Originally the mountain road was difficult to walk, and it was very bumpy, but now it has been raining and this road is getting harder to walk.
Qi Hao waved his hand and said, "Get off the horse, go up!" Diande people want to vomit, why not leave!
Yi Kun hesitated a little and said, "My son, if you walk up the mountain, you may not be able to make lunch." Originally, the departure time was relatively late, and the road was delayed for so long. Now, walking up there will definitely not be able to catch up with the meal.
Yu Zhi said by the side, "I brought dry food." He will prepare dry food and water as long as he goes out.
Lu Bai said cheerfully, "Master Yu, you are careful." Yu Zhi said very little, but everyone worked for the palace, and there were no disputes over interests, and they got along very well.
After about two quarters of an hour, everyone heard a long bell. Lu Bai smiled and said, "I can hear the bell, it should be coming soon."
Yi Kun smiled and said, "The bells of the temple travel far. We won't be able to reach the top of the mountain in less than half an hour."
As Yi Kun had expected, the group walked for more than half an hour before reaching the top of the mountain. At this time, it was already the end of noon.
A long stone road, winding, stretches to the gate of the main hall.
Lu Bai touched his nose and said, "It's not that Liangshan Temple is the largest monastery in Mianzhou, how come there are no pilgrims?" It's too deserted, it looks like the largest monastery in the state capital!
Yi Kun said grimly, "Mianzhou was hit by a disaster, and it was raining again today. Where did the pilgrims come from?" Yi Kun also accepted Lu Bai's stupidity from time to time.
Lu Bai touched his nose and stopped talking.
The apricot courtyard walls, the blue-gray ridges, and the majestic doorways are solemn. The upper part of the Daxiong Hall is engraved with three red gold characters of'Liangshan Temple'.
A little novice monk in the main hall looked at so many people with a little fear, but he was even more afraid of being punished for not eating for a day. Biting his head and walking to Qi Hao and his group, the little novice monk put his hands together and looked at Qi Hao, who was wearing a bamboo-blue brocade robe, and said, "Is the donor here to offer incense?"
Lu Bai thinks this question is funny, "What can I do if I don't come to the temple for Shangxiang?"
In fact, it is not blamed for the little novice monks to ask like this, mainly because everyone wore swords. Ordinary pilgrims, how can it be this posture.
Qi Hao nodded lightly and said, "Today is my great-grandfather's memorial day. I'll give him incense and light a bright lantern."
The little novice monk saw Qi Hao's pleasant face, and relaxed, "Donor, please here."
When he arrived at the gate of the Daxiong Hall, he didn't know why Lu Bai was a little nervous and straightened up unconsciously.
Qi Hao stepped into the main hall, and saw a Tathagata Buddha wearing a black bead and stretching out his fingers. There were Guanyin Bodhisattva and ten arhats beside him.
The little novice asked Qi Hao, "Does the donor want to burn a big incense?" Qi Hao also asked when he was dressed luxuriously. Generally, rich and wealthy people come to offer incense, and the first incense sticks are big incense.
Qi Hao nodded.
The little novice was overjoyed in his heart, and if he burned a big incense, he would definitely have a lot of money for the sesame oil. After the brother knew it, he would definitely reward him, but he didn't know what he would be rewarded. In other words, since the host took in the orphans, their lives have been difficult. Every day, the vegetables and tofu make my face green.
After finishing the incense, Qi Hao donated two hundred taels of sesame oil, and then went to light the ever-bright lantern.
After worshiping the Buddha, it is already time to apply. Qi Hao said to the abbot Wuchen, "Master, it's too late now, and the city gate must be closed if we go back. Master, we want to stay here for one night and go back tomorrow morning."
The abbot Wuchen is a kind-hearted old man. Hearing Qihao's words, Amitabha Buddha put his hands together and said, "Little donor, follow me."
Qi Hao did not reveal his identity to Wuchen, but just looking at the clothes and the guards he carried, Wuchen knew that Qi Hao's identity was valuable.
Wuchen brought Qihao to the best courtyard in the temple. This yard is very spacious, there are a total of rooms, living in a group of people is more than outstanding.
There are two linden trees in the yard.
Qi Hao stood under the tree and looked down and asked, "Master Wuchen, these two Bodhi trees should be a hundred years old?" A tree that has been several decades old can't grow so tall.
Wuchen Amitabha said, "Small donors have good eyesight. These two bodhi trees were planted by the first abbot, Master Zhitong, and have been more than two hundred years old." In other words, these two bodhi trees were established in the temple. That's it.
Qi Hao was a little surprised, and said, "Isn't this the monastery of Master Zhitong?"
Wuchen nodded, "Yes. But that was already two hundred years ago." This place has long been converted into a place for pilgrims. However, most people cannot live in this yard.
Qi Hao invited Master Wuchen into the house and asked, "Master, how many children are there in the temple?"
Wuchen Amitabha said, "There are still one hundred and sixty-nine children." After the situation stabilized, some of the children here were taken away by their parents or relatives. Because kidnappers defrauded children in Yucheng, relatives must have written certificates and witnesses to pick up the children. In addition, Master Qin took some people away and settled them in other places.
Qi Hao asked with great concern, "With so many children, are there enough food?" It is just getting warm now in April. If it is in the twelfth lunar month of winter, these children are afraid that they will suffer even more.
Wuchen said, "Master Qin will send people up to the mountain every five days." Most of the children's food is provided by the government, and they mainly take care of the children.
Qi Hao asked a lot of questions, and the abbot Wuchen was not impatient, and explained to him in detail.
"Tomorrow, I want to visit these children." These children live some distance from the small courtyard, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to get there.
Wuchen looked at Qi Hao's tired face, and Amitabha said, "The donor has a good rest, Lao Na retires."
After leaving Wuchen, Qi Hao went into the house to rest.
Lu Bai looked for Yi Kun, lowered his voice and said, "Boss, why do I think the son of the world is not right?"
Yi Kun looked at him, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?" This kid was quite sensitive.
Lu Bai shook his head and said, "I can't say it, but I think Shi Ziye is weird today."
Yi Kun slapped Lu Bai's shoulder vigorously and said, "If you have time to think about it, it's better to help them fetch water."
Lu Bai also felt that he was thinking too much, "Boss, we will cook and eat by ourselves tonight, or will we eat the food provided by the temple?"
Yi Kun doesn't make up his mind. "I'll ask Master Yu later to see what he says. You hurry up and pick water, don't be late!" There is a kitchen in this yard, and there is a lot of firewood. Most of them got caught in the rain and had to take a hot bath, otherwise they would catch a cold.
Yu Zhi said, "Just cook the meals for a few of us, and the others will use the meals provided by the temple!"
Yi Kun asked with some worry, "In case there is a problem with the food, only a few of us can't protect the safety of the son." Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
Yu Zhi said, "If you don't rest assured, go find the abbot and ask him to send rice and vegetables over."
Yi Kun was really worried, and after talking to Yu Zhi, he went to find the abbot. However, the temple does not have fine grains such as rice and white flour, only some coarse grains such as millet.
Everything was checked and there was no problem, and then I started cooking. After eating, it was dark already.
Qi Hao was in the house and asked Yu Zhi, "Liangshan Temple is thirty miles away from Mianzhou. Why did Master Qin put those orphans here?"
"Master Qin was worried that there would be ground movement at the time, and Liangshan Temple was unscathed during this movement, so these people were sent to the temple." After a pause, Yu Zhi added, "The children were suddenly lost. The relatives must be helpless. Master Wuchen and other monks can comfort them, and they can alleviate the pain and fear in their hearts."
Qi Hao sneered, but didn't say anything else.
"Ahao..." Yuxi woke up with a loud cry.
Yun Qing hugged Yuxi and gently patted her back and said, "I have a nightmare again, dreaming of A Hao's accident?" This is the second time.
Yuxi wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said solemnly, "This is the third time. It has never been before."
"You are too worried." In fact, Yun Qing himself was also worried, but he didn't have a nightmare.
Yuxi was silent and said, "A Hao has been in Mianzhou for more than a month, and it's time to come back." A Hao didn't return safely, and her heart kept hanging.
Yun Qing said hurriedly, "Then write a letter tomorrow, and let Qihao come back." This saves Yuxi from having nightmares and makes him feel uneasy.
The couple lay on the bed again, and Yuxi was not at all sleepy at this time. "Herui, did you say that I asked Qihao to go to Mianzhou right or wrong?"
"You are also good for Qihao, don't think about it." Seeing Yuxi's eyes are like lanterns, Yun Qing deserves to say "Ahao is as cautious as you, and if Yu Zhi and Yi Kun protect him personally, nothing will happen, you Don't scare yourself."
In front of outsiders, Yuxi did not change his face before Taishan collapsed. But in front of Yun Qing, Yuxi never concealed his true emotions.
Leaning on Yun Qing's shoulder, Yuxi whispered, "Herui, I'm afraid. When Ah Hao got out of smallpox, I would have killed me half my life. If..." If something happens to Qihao, she doesn't know if she can support it. Gotta live.
The white-faced character outside, but so helpless and panic at this time, made Yun Qing feel distressed. "There will be nothing wrong, don't worry about it. Or, I will send someone to call Qihao back now. At most half In a month, he will be home."
Yuxi's fragility did not last long, and soon calmed down. "These three watchers called someone over in the middle of the night, and thought something big happened? Waiting for tomorrow morning, tomorrow morning I will write to ask Ah Hao to come back." During this nightmare, Yuxi also began to feel a little flustered.
After thinking about it, Yuxi said again, "You wait for Qihao to return, and then go to Linzhou City?" Yun Qing had planned to go to Linzhou City in two days. Of course, Linzhou City is only the first stop, and then I have to go to Xiayi.
"Good" At this time, he agreed no matter what Yuxi said.
