Orphan girl reborn: Why are you clinging to me?

Walking on the quaint streets, Lin Luo was at a loss.

After wandering around the ancient town for a long time, Lin Luo felt that this town was still a traditional rural society. Most people knew each other, and some were very familiar with each other. It was really hard for her, a single little girl, to stay in a hotel or something. It's too eye-catching, and I only have more than 90 yuan, so I can't last a few days.

The Sun family probably hasn't given up looking for her yet. They have to hide for a while, wait for the limelight to pass, give themselves a new name and birthday, and then find a way to go to other orphanages.

The ancient town is not big. It only took 6-year-old Lin Luo, who has short legs, to become familiar with the roads in the ancient town in more than half a day. Her clothes are still clean, her appearance is cute and beautiful, and she walks slowly in the town. Walking slowly, the merchant on the roadside thought that a child from some family had slipped out to play on her own, and gave her a bag of biscuits to eat.

Lin Luo thanked the kind aunt sweetly and skipped forward again.

Lin Luo found that people in the town basically lived in the West District, which was crowded and lively, and there were few empty houses for her to "stay overnight". She was also very afraid of being discovered as an orphan and being sent to see the police uncle. Although her I am already a 28-year-old adult at heart.

There is only one family in the east of the town. Listening to the chats of the merchants, I learned that no one lives in that big house. The efficacious temple also belongs to that family in the east. The old monk who suddenly came last month also belongs to that family. The merchants were left scratching their heads, and they were debating whether they should also pay their respects and wish for a prosperous business.

A big house with no one living in it, Lin Luo thought, isn't this exactly what I need? Go over there before it gets dark and check out the situation.

Lin Luo walked all the way east and passed the small square in the center of the town. This small square was circular in shape. There seemed to be a large Bagua pattern painted on the ground in the middle. It was probably because of the passage of time that the ink marks were a little blurred. There were many decorations around it. With its stone tables and benches and lush flowers and plants, it is a good place for town residents to relax.

There is a large black stone tablet at the entrance of the square, with the word "Chongluo" engraved in red letters on it.

Lin Luo suddenly realized that this was the ancient town of Chongluo, which would be a tourist destination 20 years later. It was famous for its antique buildings, beautiful scenery, and simple folk customs.

It was a pity that Lin Luo had never been here in his previous life, otherwise he could have found some acquaintances to tide over the difficulties now.

The river flowing through the town is nearly 20 meters wide. There are two bridges connecting the east and west areas. One of the bridges can be seen from the small square. There are sidewalks and two-way lanes on this cement bridge, which directly leads to the homes and buildings in the east. In the temple area, there is another bridge upstream of the river, which is the only way from the town to the mountains and forests to the east.

Lin Luo walked across the bridge and found that there were indeed no people coming and going in this area to the east.

Continuing to walk forward, he climbed a small gentle slope shaded by green trees, started to go downhill again, and then turned two more turns. After the shade of the trees gradually receded, Lin Luo finally saw the big house that the townspeople were talking about. , even though she had seen many wealthy people in her previous life, she couldn't help but praise, "It's really a wealthy family."

The tall red painted door, the majestic stone lion in front of the door, and the wall as far as the eye can see. This is a scene that Lin Luo had only seen in the film and television city when he was acting in a costume drama in his previous life.

But the sets in the film and television city are more like hypocritical glitz. Most of them rely on filming techniques and special effects to show grand effects. But this mansion, with the mountains on its back, the blue sky above its head, and the shadow of the trees, actually calls her A feeling of reverence spontaneously arose in his heart.

There is an even more absurd feeling: this house seems to be alive, it seems to be guarding something here, or suppressing something...

Lin Luo, who was shocked by the house, stayed there for a long time before he recovered. He was about to go take a look around. When he turned around, he was startled by someone who suddenly appeared not far away, breaking into a cold sweat.

It was a shriveled old monk, with wrinkles on his face, protruding eyes, and a hooked nose, all of which made people fearful. He was wearing a monk's robe that seemed to be hanging empty on his body, and it didn't seem to fit him well.

His sharp eyes were like a vulture seeing carrion, and he was staring intently at the little girl in front of him who had been staying in front of the Wang family's ancient house for a long time.

"Who are you from the Wang family?" the old monk asked, his voice hoarse.

Lin Luo was a little confused, and then looked back at the plaque on the door of the mansion. It was the two characters "Wang's House".

Lin Luo felt a little scared and shook his head quickly, "I'm not from the Wang family. I'm just curious. Come and have a look."

After hearing this, the old monk's expression did not soften. He even grinned and said with a weird smile, "Huh, really? You are not a child, are you?"

"Grandpa, are you dazzled? I'm just a child." Lin Luo was shocked again and thought about leaving immediately.

"You know, I'm not talking about the shell, but your core." The old monk said firmly, "I have seen countless people in my life, and I have never made a miscalculation."

"Grandpa, can you tell fortunes?" Although he was shocked and confused, Lin Luo wanted to know why she was reborn and how she died in the previous life.

The old monk looked at her deeply, then turned around and walked away, as if he was sure that Lin Luo would follow.

Lin Luo stood there, very torn. This old monk was not simple. He was afraid that it would be dangerous to follow him, but he was not willing to leave like this.

"Follow me. The questions you want to know may be answered soon. You may not have such an opportunity in the future." After watching the old monk walk away, Lin Luo made up his mind and followed the old monk from a distance.

The old monk crossed the bluestone road on one side, and at the end of the road, there was a temple. It must be the very efficacious temple that the aunts mentioned in the morning.

The old monk just walked into the temple gate. After a while, the sun set in the west and it was already evening. The old monk did not appear again. Lin Luo saw smoke rising from the side room at the back of the temple.

Lin Luo waited for a while and was about to leave when the old monk came out. His attitude was much kinder than before and said to her, "What do you want to know? Come in and eat and talk. You must be hungry too."

Lin Luo thought, the residents in the town praised this temple for its efficaciousness, and the monks in the temple were very accurate in telling fortunes. Although the old monk looked fierce, he must have real skills. The incense in this temple was also really good. Look at him. If you care about your own food, you probably have good intentions. Just ask a few questions and leave after asking. You should be fine.

With this thought in mind, Lin Luo followed the old monk into the temple gate.

The temple is not big. After passing through the main hall, Lin Luo followed the old monk to the side room at the back. The room was divided into an inner and outer room. The door of the inner room was closed. It should be a sleeping place. The outer room was used as a living room, with a table and two There are two dishes and one soup on the stool and table, all simple vegetarian dishes.

"Sit." The old monk told Lin Luo. He turned around and filled two bowls of rice into the pot next to him. He sat back at the table and placed one bowl in front of Lin Luo, "Eat."

Lin Luo did not move his chopsticks, but asked respectfully: "Master, do you know why I am like this?"

The old monk lowered his head to eat and ignored her.

Lin Luo asked again without giving up: "Master, you see that my soul is not a child, can you tell me why?"

The old monk glanced at her with dim eyes and said, "Eat first."

Lin Luo felt something was wrong, so he stood up and prepared to leave, "If you don't tell me, I will go home first."

After taking just two steps and before stepping out of the threshold, the old monk put down his bowl and chopsticks, waved his sleeves, and a strange gust of wind hit the forest forcefully.

Lin Luo was slapped to the ground immediately.
