After rebirth, the leader only wants to be with the shadow guard

Lou Jingyu held Ying Shiyi's hand and climbed the stairs, followed by the shadow guards. Before they had taken a few steps, monks from the temple came down to greet them.

"Master Lou, I'm sorry for not coming in person to greet you. Our abbot has been waiting for you for a long time." He then led the way and led them forward.

There are eighty-eight steps in front of the Dajue Temple. Every ten steps on both sides there is a pair of pillars with lotus reliefs. Each pillar is connected together with chains to prevent pilgrims from accidentally falling down.

Nowadays, there is a grand event of chanting scriptures and preaching in Dajue Temple, and there are more pilgrims than before. People coming and going, seeing that Lou Jingyu and his party have an extraordinary demeanor, they can't help but stop and take a few more glances.

Ying Shiyi saw that people were looking at him from time to time along the way, and thought that walking side by side with his master would undermine his master's dignity, so he wanted to take a step back.

But he deliberately slowed down and stopped for a step, and Lou Jingyu turned back and waited for him, so he walked even slower. What's more, his hand was held by Lou Jingyu, so he had no choice but to keep up.

"Just stand next to me, okay?" Lou Jingyu said to him sideways.

His eyes were filled with encouragement and patience, which made Ying Shiyi feel embarrassed.

Standing beside his master was what he had always wanted.

Now that his master had spoken, he naturally agreed, nodded, and obediently let Lou Jingyu lead him along.

Master Jingtai was waiting for them at the end of the stairs. The incense burner in front of the main hall of Dajue Temple was emitting smoke from the smoke. He stood in front of the burner, looking like an immortal.

Master Jingtai is over sixty years old. He looks kind and compassionate. His long beard and eyebrows have turned gray, and he has a kind face.

Although he is old, he is in very good health. Wearing simple monk's robes, he stands there like an evergreen pine on the top of Qingjing Mountain, tall and straight.

When he saw Lou Jingyu, he started laughing happily.

"Master Lou is so hard to invite. I have written you so many letters over the years to invite you to come. Now I finally have you."

Lou Jingyu nodded to him as a greeting, smiled slightly, and said, "You are a monk, but you still talk so much."

The shadow guard behind him also followed Lou Jingyu and bowed to Master Jingtai.

Master Jingtai also greeted them with a smile, his eyes stayed on Ying Shiyi, and he was a little surprised.

This person is actually standing next to Lou Jingyu?

This is strange. With Lou Jingyu's personality, how could he tolerate others being on the same level as him?

It's quite unusual.

He stroked his beard and looked at Lou Jingyu and Ying Shiyi silently.

The two of them were seen standing together holding hands, behaving intimately, not caring at all about the looks of others. They were both wearing black robes embroidered with gold patterns, and looked very well matched.

However, the young man next to Lou Jingyu, whom he didn't know, still had a sword on his waist. Although Lou Jingyu was holding his hand, he did not relax but was very alert.

Their temperament is very similar to those shadow guards behind them, but also different.

It is as cool as the snow and wind in the mountains, and his handsome eyebrows and eyes are very eye-catching.

Master Jingtai really couldn't guess his identity for a moment, so he turned his gaze back to Lou Jingyu.

"May I ask who this person next to the leader is?"

Lou Jingyu loosened his hands and instead embraced Shiyi's slender waist, lightly placing his hands on it in a protective gesture.

"Of course she is the one that I hold dearest to my heart. You, a monk, don't understand."

There was even a hint of pride in his tone.

Master Jingtai shook his head and laughed, then he understood.

"Now I know." Very good-tempered.

After saying this, he glanced at the pilgrims passing by, fearing that they would bump into Lou Jingyu. After all, this man had always had a cold temper, and if a conflict arose it would be difficult to resolve.

Thinking that they were tired from the journey, he took them to the backyard room to rest first.

There is still some distance from the main hall to the backyard rooms. Dajue Temple occupies half of Qingjing Mountain and has many rooms and courtyards.

Because of this sutra chanting and Dharma talk, quite a few invitations have been sent out, and some people have already arrived.

Ordinary pilgrims may come to burn incense or listen to Buddhist teachings. Most of them are from nearby states and counties, and none of them want to live here permanently.

Nowadays, those who live in Dajue Temple are all prominent figures, including people from the underworld and the imperial court, and many of their family members accompany them.

As soon as they saw Lou Jingyu's luxurious black robe with golden lotus patterns embroidered on the hem and cuffs, they had some guesses in their minds.

In addition, Lou Jingyu had an extraordinary aura and a cold and handsome face, especially with a line of black-clad shadow guards following him who kept strangers away, everyone knew that this must be the legendary cold-blooded and ruthless Master Lou.

Many people immediately began to have some ideas.

I really didn't expect this person to come to Dajue Temple. If I could get close to this person...

Even if I could just show up in front of this person.

But seeing that Lou Jingyu had a cold and distant look on his face, and the shadow guards behind him looked very difficult to deal with, he gave up the idea and consciously made way for them.

Lou Jingyu brought a lot of shadow guards with him, so Master Jingtai chose a quiet courtyard for them. After making an appointment with Lou Jingyu and having a short chat, he left.

Lou Jingyu didn't try to keep him. Since they had already arrived at Dajue Temple, there was no need to worry about not having the chance to meet again.

He brought Shadow Eleven into the main house and ordered all the Shadow Guards to rest, and also asked Shadow Three and Shadow Four to take turns to rest and return for orders at noon.

After everyone left, Lou Jingyu closed the door and looked around the room.

The room was simple but clean. Master Jingtai must have known that he liked cleanliness so he made preparations early on.

There is a big temperature difference between the top of the mountain and the bottom of the mountain. The room is not hot even though there is no ice, so Lou Jingyu is quite satisfied.

After a while, a young monk brought a few plates of snacks and fruits. Although they were not as exquisite and expensive as those in the sect, they were all mountain fruits and had unique flavors.

They were indeed exhausted from the long journey these past few days, so Lou Jingyu took Ying Shiyi to eat something and then went to bed to rest.

He lay down, but felt no sleep at all.

Ying Shiyi opened his clear black eyes and twisted the belt hanging from his clothes with his fingers. He had dozed off for a while in the carriage in the morning, but now he couldn't fall asleep.

Moreover, he was used to running around to carry out tasks on a daily basis, so he didn't feel very tired.

He controlled his breathing, which was light and quiet, and quietly raised his head to look at his master who had his eyes closed.

What caught his eye was Lou Jingyu's perfectly shaped jawline. Her eyes rolled around and she lay obediently beside him without moving.

The master is so handsome, so handsome from every angle.

"Eleven, can't sleep? What are you thinking about?" Lou Jingyu patted his shoulder to comfort him, and talked to him with half-closed eyes.

Ying Shiyi's ears turned red with embarrassment and she shook her head in an attempt to hide her guilt.

"Master, I didn't think of anything."

Lou Jingyu burst out laughing.

His Eleven is so cute even when he lies.

It can be seen through at a glance.

Lou Jingyu didn't bother to get to the bottom of the matter. He stretched out his long arm, pulled the person over to his chest, pinched the tip of the person's small nose, and laughed and joked with him.

After all, I expended some energy and fell asleep in a daze after eleven and a half hours.

Lou Jingyu was in a good mood and slept with his partner until the afternoon.

Eleven was still asleep. These days, Lou Jingyu had cultivated a good habit of taking a nap in his lunch break. He would even take a nap in the carriage when he was on the road these days. Now was the time for him to take a nap.

Fortunately, he had a big breakfast and ate some more before going to bed, so there was no need to rush him to eat.

After leaning over and kissing Ying Shiyi's smooth forehead, Lou Jingyu got out of bed and left.

He closed the door tightly, called Shadow Five and Shadow Six to guard the yard, and went out with Shadow Three and Shadow Four.

He had a few things to do when he came to Dajue Temple.
