[Liao Zhai] Lanruo Temple

In order to win Huai Xu's favor, Zhang Litang tried her best and said some novel things. At the beginning, she only talked about anecdotes, but found that Huai Xu was not interested. care.

Zhang Litang thought: "Brother Queyong, although he lives in the deep mountains, has unique insights into military and state affairs. He also has ambitions, but somehow he doesn't live in the world?"

Zhang Litang had some thoughts about Huai Xu in his heart, so he naturally liked him in every possible way.

Huai Xu just wanted to understand what the world is like, and see what the world is like.

But in Zhang Litang's eyes, he is a hermit idler with deep secrets and great wisdom.

It was already late at night, and Zhang Litang was already tired after fleeing all the way, if Huai Xu hadn't attracted his spirit and made him a little excited, he might have been unable to hold on.

Seeing that the night was getting late, Huai Xu said: "The night is getting darker, and the dew is getting thicker. Litang must be tired too, so let's rest early."

Zhang Litang wanted to say that he wasn't tired, but before he stood up, his body was overwhelmed by sleepiness, he couldn't help yawning, covered his mouth and lowered his head in a mocking smile.

"Litang just rest at ease, and leave tomorrow after dawn."

Wen Xiang led Zhang Litang to the guest room at the back, where Zhang Litang's book bag was safely placed by his bedside.

There is a faint scent of incense in the room, thick but not greasy.

Zhang Litang almost went to bed as soon as he touched the bed, and he didn't have any extra thoughts, but before falling asleep, his hands were still on his chest - where was the handkerchief Huai Xu gave him.

"Tch, mortal."

Bai Xianzhi stood behind the huge flower vat outside the door, sneered, expressing his disdain.

But I don't know why I'm not happy in my heart.

Before Zhang Litang appeared, Huai Xu was the only one paying attention to him, no matter whether Bai Xianzhi liked it or not, the attention Huai Xu put on him would inevitably have an impact on him.

His child's body and mind were the same as a child's, Zhang Litang suddenly appeared, and Huai Xu didn't look at him in the middle of the night, which naturally made him unhappy.

Bai Xianzhi went to the front hall, Huai Xu had already gone back to the Buddhist scripture pavilion behind the temple, Rongniang and Master Quan were discussing what to bring when going out tomorrow.

"Going down the mountain?" Bai Xianzhi's eyes lit up.

"Godmother, I also want to go down the mountain to have a look."

Rong Niang hugged him into her arms, rubbed his head, took a piece of candied date cake made by Yan Niang from the table and fed it to Bai Xianzhi.

"Grandma only ordered the people from the spring when she went out, and the godmother also left the housekeeper. If Xianzhi wants to go down the mountain, just wait until the next time."

Bai Xianzhi held the jujube cake in his mouth and pouted, he crawled out of the soil and stayed on the mountain all the time, but how can there be prosperity on the mountain?

Bai Xianzhi ate the candied date cake in two bites, choking him so much that he rolled his eyes.

"I'm going to ask grandma!"

Bai Xianzhi ran down from Rong Niang's body in a hurry, and ran towards the back of the temple.

"Hey..." Rong Niang yelled, and Bai Xianzhi had already run away.

Rong Niang sighed, and was about to get up to chase, but was stopped by Master Quan.

Quan Shangren has taken off his painted skin and turned into an old fox in a jacket.The fox's body was all white, only the tip of its tail was still a little blue.

Mr. Quan Shang leaned on a cane longer than seven feet, and said silently: "It's okay, don't worry, grandma likes that child very much."

Rong Niang hesitated for a moment, then sat down again.

Quan Shangren squinted his eyes, tapped the ground with his cane, and said, "Mother Rong, you have to teach that child Bai Xianzhi well, don't let him learn badly."

"What's wrong?" Rong Niang asked hesitantly.

Quanshangren remembered the look in his eyes when he saw Bai Xianzhi appearing alone several times, and said worriedly: "That child...is too hostile."

A fox always understands people's wishes, let alone a fox fairy like Quanshangren, he never looks bad at people.

He deliberately reminded Rong Niang that in his eyes, this matter was not a trivial matter.

Rong Niang's face became serious, and she said, "Thank you Master for your advice."

Quan Shangren nodded and said no more.

Even though Rong Niang loves her son dearly, she is definitely not a doting mother.

Bai Xianzhi trotted all the way, passed through Lanruo Temple, and walked to the back of Lanruo Temple.

Lanruo Temple has changed greatly. The broken rocks and broken wood on the ruins have been cleaned up, and fine grass is growing all over the ground, leaving a winding path for people to pass. Feel.

Moss grows on the stone slabs, lotus root flowers are flourishing in the merit pool, there are no monks coming and going, but there is an independent fairy charm.

Passing through the front hall and the monk's house, to the stupa forest behind, and near the Sutra Pavilion, Bai Xianzhi slowed down.

In the eyes, there is a huge locust tree, so tall that it almost has a feeling of covering the sky.The rich green shade casts down, people's body and mind are soaked and transparent.

Half a month ago, this place was still a forbidden area, but after half a month, Huai Xu showed his real body indifferently.

But Bai Xianzhi knew that the danger here was definitely worse than half a month ago.

"Grandma." Bai Xianzhi called out.

There are lights on in the Sutra Pavilion under the locust tree, and Huai Xu is reading scriptures.The scriptures in the entire Sutra Pavilion are open for him, which is a huge resource.

Hearing Bai Xianzhi's voice, Huai Xu raised his head and waved his hand.

The door of the Sutra Pavilion opened with a creak, and a baby spirit flew out of the door holding a lantern, and brought Bai Xianzhi back to the Sutra Pavilion.

"It's late at night, you haven't slept yet?"

Huai Xu gathered the scriptures, rolled up his sleeves with his slender fingers, spread out the white paper, rubbed the ink, and picked up the pen. The black characters were like dragons and snakes dancing, and they were savage on the paper.

Huai Xu didn't look at Bai Xianzhi, but Bai Xianzhi pouted.

"Grandma is going down the mountain tomorrow, can I bring Xianzhi with me? Xianzhi also wants to go."

"Impossible." Huai Xu didn't raise his head, and directly refused, his hand still didn't stop, and the pen and ink flew across the paper.

Bai Xianzhi's face collapsed, "Grandma..."

The cry was three points soft and waxy, three points delicate and four points aggrieved, coupled with his frowning expression, it made people feel very distressed.

But Huai Xu was a hard-hearted man, he always said what he said, no matter how coquettish he was, it was just to add some fun to him.

Huai Xu stopped writing, and hugged Bai Xianzhi into his arms, the fresh fragrance of Sophora japonica flowers enveloped Bai Xianzhi.

Huai Xu's body was full of vitality and warmth, which was extremely attractive.

Bai Xianzhi didn't care when his nose was pinched, instead he secretly took a few breaths.

Huai Xu pretended not to notice his little movements, pointed to the words on the paper, and asked word by word.

Bai Xianzhi can't speak or read, he's like a poor kid who got out of some corner of the earth, born with a fierce nature, but his human nature is frighteningly weak.

It is precisely because of this that Huai Xu must teach him to speak human language, to teach him to read and write, and to teach him etiquette, righteousness and shame.

Even if you don't plan to cultivate a corrupt Confucianism, you can't let him have a fierce temperament and rely entirely on his own temperament.

After the school exam, seeing that he has studied seriously, Huai Xu blinked his eyes and said, "It seems that he has studied with purpose, although I can't take you down the mountain this time, I can bring you some small gifts from the mountain. "

Huai Xu rubbed his head and put him down.If there is progress, there will be rewards. Even though Bai Xianzhi, who is a child, knows what kind of routine this is, he can't change his secretly happy mind.

"Go back and rest early."

Huai Xu's gentle voice echoed in the Sutra Pavilion.

Yingling lit a lantern and sent Bai Xianzhi back to the monastery.

When walking out of the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, suddenly there was a fine wind blowing up the fragrance of locust trees, which made people feel refreshed.

Bai Xianzhi raised his head to look, and there were clusters of Sophora japonica flowers, like snowflakes piled up, hanging loosely on the branches.

Two pieces of Sophora japonica were dropped by the wind, and Bai Xianzhi took them into his hands.

It was as translucent as broken jade, with the breath of Huai Xu.

Bai Xianzhi held the two petals of flowers in his hands and left.

Huai Xu's sleep gradually decreased, and most of the time was replaced by meditation.

After blowing out the lights, the world is still bright in Huai Xu's eyes.

The scriptures, ancient books, and long wooden tables all exude their own aura.

Sometimes Huai Xu feels that this is where the practice lies, not to gain great power, but to see more, wider, and deeper.

Strength is more like an accessory, rather than the purpose of practice, and practice is not just a way of meditating and refining Qi.

There are those who are diligent in painting and calligraphy, enter the Tao through calligraphy and painting, and become immortals, and those who are good at planting flowers, ask flowers with flowers, and become flower gods.

This is all practice, but in the end, people's hearts become more and more muddy, which makes these purely single-minded practice methods gradually disappear.

Huai Xu closed his eyes and meditated all night, his eyes moved from the ground to the ground, wandering along the roots of the Black Mountain.

Montenegro is vast, but the roots of Huaixu are widely distributed in the whole Montenegro.

The deeper the roots are, the more aura there is to absorb.

At some point, most of Montenegro was covered by his roots.

What Huai Xu has to do now is to continue to take root and completely bring Montenegro under control.

Bai Xianzhi's yin imperial talisman turned in front of Huai Xu, and the light flashed.

Bai Xianzhi's name was written on this talisman, which meant that it could not be taken by force.If Bai Xianzhi takes it back one day, who is the master of this Black Mountain?

People always have to leave a way out for themselves.

While Huai Xu takes root in Montenegro, he understands the Montenegro and Qinghuai.

The spells in the world are all created by humans, and the best mentors for humans are heaven and earth.

Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.That's all.

The sky is gradually brightening, and the warm sun is coming out from the east.

Zhang Litang got up from the bed, was dazed for a while, and finally woke up.

He wakes up early every day, reads books and practices swordsmanship, and never slacks off for a day. It is rare to get up late today.

Zhang Litang is good at swordsmanship, but it is only dance and not martial arts. Apart from strengthening his body, it has no other use.

Wen Xiang noticed the movement in the room, greeted him softly, then waited for him to wash his clothes and took him to dinner.

Huai Xu was not seen at the dinner table, and Zhang Litang felt a little overwhelmed with tea and food, and only felt that the table was full of good food, but it didn't taste like much.

When he was almost done eating, Huai Xu came late.

Today he is wearing a plain green robe, his hair is tied in a jade crown, his sword eyebrows are starry eyes, and he looks extraordinarily heroic.

"Have you used Li Tang?"

Huai Xu smiled warmly, bringing Zhang Litang back to his senses.

Zhang Litang was awakened by him, a little shy, said: "I've used it, thank you Brother Qiyong for your hospitality."

Huai Xu nodded and said, "Since you've used it, let's go down the mountain earlier."

Zhang Litang froze for a moment, and he had just met Huai Xu, and it was at a time when he could not wait to get along with each other every day, so he would not want to leave.

It's just that he is a scholar after all, and he is not just obsessed with appearance, so he calmed down a little, suppressed the hazy thoughts in his heart, and said: "Then... Litang will leave, thank you brother for taking care of me."

Zhang Litang made up his mind and walked out cruelly.After returning to the wing room, he took the bookbag, followed Wen Xiang to the outside of Lan Ruoju, only to find that Huai Xu was waiting for him in his spare time.

Three similar-looking boys in yellow clothes and yellow hats followed Huai Xu with their hands behind their backs and saluted.

In addition to these three, there are two tall and strong gray-clothed servants accompanying them.It's just that the faces of these two servants are stiff, and they look very old-fashioned.

Zhang Litang was taken aback, "Brother Queyong, this is..."

Huai Xu blinked his eyes: "Why, I didn't tell Li Tang, do I need to go down the mountain just because I have something to do?"

"No." But luckily.

Zhang Litang thought.

"Let's go, if you delay any longer, it will be difficult to reach Jinhua before noon."

"Yes, eh... Brother Queyong, wait for me."
