Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Chapter 38 Fate

Nirvana Day.

The people in Jingkehou's Mansion were all ready and planned to set off for Jialan Temple.

Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi got into the carriage in front first. When the curtain was about to be put down, Mrs. Shi glanced ahead.

Seeing his youngest son walking slowly behind, he didn't seem to be in a hurry to set off. He deliberately slowed down and waited for Xi Xin behind.

Shi Chen's servants hurried over with the things they needed on the road.

Mrs. Shi took a second look and reminded: "Chen'er, don't waste any more time."

Shi Chen, who was named suddenly, looked forward and lazily replied: "Got it, mother."

But the ones who walked the slowest were not Shi Chen and Xi Xin, but Shi Lin and his book boy who were further behind.

When it was about to set off, Shi Lin's figure gradually appeared, and Liu Ruohan followed behind with a small burden on her back. When she saw Xi Xin, her eyes lit up, and she wanted to say hello to him, but then she thought that the current occasion was not very good. When it was appropriate, Liu Ruohan quietly waved her hands towards Xi Xin.

Xi Xin nodded at him.

Perhaps because of the cold and wind two days ago, Shi Lin's face was even paler than before. When he passed by Xi Xin, he couldn't help saying: "The copybook is actually..."

Xi Xin looked back quietly, without any strange emotion in her clear eyes.

"You two brothers, what are you dawdling about?" Hou Ye waited for a while, and finally couldn't help but lifted the curtain, urging them.

Shi Chen held Xi Xin's hand, and said to Jing Kehou, "Understood, father!"

Hearing the same reply as before, Lord Shi Hou knew that Shi Chen was just perfunctory, and he didn't bother to pay any attention to this young son, so he turned his attention to Shi Lin.

Shi Lin nodded slightly, and led the servants into the carriage.

"Second Young Master." The servant's weak voice came from the carriage belonging to Shi Chen.

Shi Chen and Xi Xin looked over.

"Okay, ready to go." The boy said in a low voice, his voice lacked confidence, obviously he didn't have any confidence in convincing Shi Chen.

Xi Xin gently pulled off the corner of his clothes, and said with a smile: "Let's go, Madam and the others have been waiting for a long time."

Hearing Xi Xin's words, the servants waiting at the side all breathed a sigh of relief.

Shi Chen said: "Then let's go."

He first helped Xi Xin into the carriage, and then went up by himself.

The curtain that Marquis Shi held in his hand did not put down, his eyes kept on Xi Xin and Shi Chen who were not far away, and when he saw that they finally got into the carriage, his eyes gradually became a little puzzled with confusion.

When he put down the curtain, he turned his head to look at his wife who was sitting in the carriage with her eyes closed and meditating, and asked doubtfully, "Do you think Shi Chen and Xi Xin seem to be getting too close?"

Hearing Jing Kehou's words, Mrs. Shi slightly opened her eyes, revealing a trace of calm eyes. She did not rush to respond to her husband's words, but turned her gaze to the small table beside her.

Lord Shi Hou immediately understood what she meant, and quickly poured a glass of water for his wife.

Mrs. Shi took the cup and asked back: "So what if you get close, so what if you don't get close? Can you and I stop what Chen'er wants to do?"

Master Shi Hou didn't understand, he just asked a question, why did he get involved with other things?

Mrs. Shi ignored him, put the cup aside, and quickly closed her eyes again.

Jing Kehou was anxious: "Hey madam, don't beat around the bush, can you make it clearer?"

Mrs. Shi didn't even bother to lift her eyelids, she just warned lightly: "Shut up."

He quickly covered his mouth, looked at his wife helplessly, and then finally gave up his curiosity.

"Galan Temple." Xi Xin held the amulet Shi Chen handed him in his hand, and stared intently at the writing on it. Except for these three Chinese characters that he could understand, the others were in obscure Sanskrit. I haven't learned it before, so it is still difficult for Xi Xin to recognize the remaining fonts.

"Yes, Jialan Temple." Shi Chen explained, "This is the amulet my mother begged for in the temple at that time, and said it can keep you safe."

"Galan Temple, is that where we are going?" Xi Xin asked.

Shi Chen nodded.

He remembered that when the abbot of the temple showed his and Shi Lin's faces, he once said that they would encounter a catastrophe, and unless they met a noble person, their lives would be in danger.

Although Shi Chen didn't believe in these so-called fates, his mother believed in them very much. At that time, she sincerely knelt down for three hours in Jialan Temple and donated a lot of incense money there.

Afterwards, the host gave them two amulets.

Xi Xin put the things back into Shi Chen's hands, and said seriously: "Since it's such a valuable thing, put it away quickly."

Shi Chen took him in his hand, and said: "I see, this monk just wants to deceive people. I have never met any catastrophe that is not catastrophe."

"It's better to believe it." Xi Xin looked serious.

Helpless, Shi Chen had no choice but to put the talisman back into his arms honestly.

When the carriage stopped, they knew that Jialan Temple had arrived.

Shi Chen poked his head out to take a look, and the new abbot was already waiting outside the temple gate with a group of monks.

Mrs. Shi saw his inconspicuous appearance, frowned and reprimanded him: "Come down."

Shi Chen got down from the carriage nimbly, then stretched out his hand to help Xi Xin down as well.

The host looked at them, his eyes fell on Xi Xin, a slight surprise appeared in his eyes, but he soon returned to normal.

"Master Hou and Madam, please come with this old man."

Shi Chen took Xi Xin to wander around the temple, walking, and suddenly came to a quiet place.

There was almost no one passing by, the two stopped and looked around, and found that this place seemed to be far away from the main hall, and there was no sound at all.

A little bird flew over and landed directly on Xi Xin's shoulder. He turned his head curiously, but he didn't dare to move, for fear of disturbing the little creature.

"This is?" Xi Xin asked in a low voice.

The little thing that rested on his shoulder was covered in brown feathers.

The round little head turned around and happened to meet Xi Xin's eyes. It seemed to be very shy, so it gave a small "chirp" and then tried to fly to the side, but when it flew, it accidentally hit On Xi Xin's shoulder, the whole bird fell to the ground.

"Chirp." It stood up sluggishly, and looked at them blankly, as if aggrieved.

"I guess it's a little sparrow from somewhere." Shi Chen looked at it, but couldn't tell what it was for a while.

Seeing that it seemed a little afraid of them, Xi Xin pulled Shi Chen back a few steps.

"Did we scare it?" Xi Xin asked softly.

It is estimated that the creatures in the mountains rarely come into contact with outsiders.

"Then why did it stop on your shoulder in the first place?" Shi Chen was puzzled.

The little guy looked silly, his eyes were wide open, and he seemed to want to get close to them, but he was worried about something.

Then, as if he wanted to understand something, he gently tugged on Xi Xin, "I'll back off, you go up and have a look."

With that said, Shi Chen really moved back a few steps.

Xi Xin stepped forward slowly.

It also seemed to want to approach him, but because its legs were too short to take a step, it could only hop over.

Xi Xin stretched out her hand towards it, it tilted its head, then leaned over and kissed his fingertips with its sharp mouth.

"Chirp!" it yelled shyly, and then jumped up and down happily on the ground.

The joy in Xi Xin's eyes spread bit by bit, his pupils seemed to be filled with stars, they were extremely bright.

"So you're here!" A little monk ran over panting, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the little bird on the ground.

He ran over and gently put the bird on his shoulder, "I'll be caught and eaten later, what should I do?"

After the little monk talked to it, he had the energy to look forward. When he saw Shi Chen and Xi Xin standing in front of him, he took a deep breath and suddenly bowed, "Hello, two benefactors." !"

"Hi, little master." Xi Xin replied with a smile.

Shi Chen looked at him and asked, "You raised this?"

The little monk thought it had disturbed the distinguished guests, and explained uncomfortably: "No, it was injured a few days ago, and was picked up by the abbot, and then took it in. After a few days, it will be healed, and it will be sent to the house. Go back to the forest."

Shi Chen asked again: "Which direction is the main hall?"

The little monk pointed to the front, "Turn left from here, go straight, make another turn, and you will be here."

Shi Chen smiled at Xi Xin: "Let's go, let's go to have an incense too."

Xi Xin nodded.

While walking, Shi Chen suddenly felt a burning sensation in his chest.

He took out the talisman paper and found that it was this strange amulet that caused the burning sensation.

Shi Chen frowned.

Xi Xin looked at him, and also saw the abnormality of the talisman paper.

The originally yellow talisman paper had already started to turn black.

"Chirp." The bird's call sounded again.

The two looked at the source of the sound and found an old monk digging the soil with a shovel, and the little bird that was close to Xi Xin was now perched on the old monk's shoulder.

"It's you." Shi Chen recognized him as the old abbot of the temple.

The old monk narrowed his eyes slightly and looked this way.

His eyes fell on Xi Xin and Shi Chen, and he smiled cheerfully, "The two benefactors are polite."

After saying this, he began to dig the soil slowly again.

Xi Xin saluted and called out, "Hello, master."

Shi Chen didn't speak, he took Xi Xin's hand and walked forward again.

When they were far away, the old monk put down the things in his hands and looked at the little bird on his shoulder happily.

"Fate is really amazing." He said with emotion.
