Rebirth of the Son Raiders

There are five large and small courtyards under the name of the Lin family. Lin Yanhong knew that the Zhuangzi that Lin Feng was referring to was in the suburbs of the city, and was famous for Xia He.

But he didn't lose weight because of the bitter summer at all, and naturally his mind was not on it, so he was not interested in his father's suggestion.

Lin Feng saw that the eldest son did not show an expectant expression, and thought he was worried about the journey, so he continued: "It only takes one day to go there by carriage from the city. The new carriage in the mansion is not very bumpy. A little bit, and it will be more secure."

Lin Yanhong is now full of the anecdotes about "demon cats stealing the country" in Boya Hall, and he really doesn't have the heart to see any lotus flowers.

In addition, it is impossible for him to go alone to the other courtyard to escape the summer heat. At that time, Mrs. Lin Tong, Mrs. Zhen and Lin Yanxing will also go with her, but Lin Qiongde and Lin Feng, who are in public office, cannot stay for long.

After staying under the same roof with them for more than a month, and not being able to see his father often, Lin Yanhong felt that even if he was really in a bitter summer, he would definitely not want to go to another village.

Of course, the most important thing is that there are mountains, waters and flowers there, but there are no books, let alone Leiyin Temple, otherwise he can go to the temple and ask the eminent monk what happened at that time, after his death " Turning into a cat", what's the matter again.

At this moment, something flashed through Lin Yanhong's mind. He touched the ancient jade on his chest and thought about it.

Seeing him holding his chest, Lin Feng thought that Lin Yanhong was feeling unwell, so he quickly asked, "What's the matter? Are you feeling unwell? You should call Dr. Hu and let Honger take a look."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Amber standing beside him, and was about to signal her to find the housekeeper when Lin Yanhong reached out and grabbed his cuff.

The young man's white and slender fingers are like jade, which look really good against Lin Feng's dark official uniform.

Lin Feng was very happy that the eldest son was so close to him, and for a moment he forgot what he wanted to say to Hu Po.

He looked at Lin Yanhong lovingly, as if he was willing to agree to any request made by the other party.

Lin Yanhong thought about it for a while, and said, "Father, in fact, the child is not a bitter summer, but these days, I always dream of a strange place at night, so it is inevitable to think about it."

He took out the ancient jade hidden in his robe and hung close to his body, and motioned Lin Feng to look at it.

"Some time ago, the child asked Amber to find an ancient ancestral jade gift from his grandfather. This piece of jade was consecrated by his mother to Huayin Temple to pray for blessings. It always felt comfortable to carry on the body. The child's health is getting better day by day. I guess it is the ancestor and mother. The spirit in heaven blesses the child."

It is probably because of this piece of ancient jade that he was able to be reborn after death, so it is not an exaggeration to say that his ancestors and biological mother blessed him.

And what makes people feel even more amazing is that he really recovered very quickly this time - the kind of anger emanating from the inside out was something he hadn't felt for a long time.

Lin Yanhong felt that this might have something to do with his frequent visits to the misty mustard.

It's just that the reason for the water pool is unknown, Lin Yanhong finally survived, and he was much more life-saving than before, so he didn't dare to test the water directly.

When Lin Feng heard his eldest son mention his wife who died young, he felt sad and sad.

He patted Lin Yanhong's hand and echoed: "Your mother will naturally bless you. Since it is an ancestral item and it has been consecrated by an eminent monk in Huayin Temple, you don't want to take it off, just carry it like this."

Lin Yanxing was still "ill" at this time, but Mrs. Zhen didn't seem to be in a hurry to go to the doctor, so naturally she didn't think about Gu Yu.

Now that Lin Feng has spoken, even if Mrs. Zhen begs, he has made a promise to Lin Yanhong, and most likely he will not agree to Mrs. Zhen's request again.

But Lin Yanhong didn't mention Gu Yu just to listen to his father's promise.

He only nodded slightly when he heard the words, and then talked about his real purpose: "The land in my dream seems to be an ancient temple in a mountain, where the mountains are winding and surrounded by clouds and mists. Although the scenery is strange, it makes people yearn for it. "

The so-called thinking day by day and dreaming at night, talking about the eminent monk of Leiyin Temple and the demon cat stealing the country all the time during the day, Lin Yanhong dreamed of things at night, naturally all of these were the same.

Sometimes it is an ancient temple, sometimes it is the stone table and wooden house in Sumi mustard, and sometimes it is the scene he saw with his cat eyes after he turned into a cat...

It was also these disturbing scenes that kept Lin Yanhong from sleeping all night.

So what he said was not completely deceiving Lin Feng.

However, the ancient temple is still an ancient temple, but it is not the ancient temple he will mention next.

"My child is thinking, could it be that this is a sign from the heavens, that since the patient recovers physically, he should go to Huayin Temple to fulfill his vows and express his gratitude to the Buddha and ancestors in person, so that he can feel at ease?"

Since the Huayin Temple was built by the eminent monk Lei Yin in Kyushu, and it is in the territory of Liang State, there may be some clues.

Lin Yanhong's current body cannot go to the west no matter what, but it is still possible to go to Huayin Temple.

He regarded the ancient temple in his dream as Huayin, and mentioned that his mother once went to Wushan to seek blessings for him, and his body did gradually improve after wearing the ancient jade.

Sure enough, Lin Feng was silent for a while when he heard the words, as if he was thinking about it seriously.

Just now he was still comforting Lin Yanhong, persuading that the other courtyard is not far away, and now it was the eldest son's turn to propose going to Wushan to fulfill his vow, and he began to worry again.

"Although Wushan is also in Yunshui County, it takes at least half a month to get to Wushan from the county's Yunyang City, and more than a month to go back and forth. Even if Hong'er is in better health, it shouldn't be a long journey."

Lin Yanhong hurriedly said: "As my father said, if the child walks slowly, there will be no serious problems... What's more, Huayin Temple is an ancient temple in Zhenguo, and Wushan has beautiful scenery. If the child can live there for a while, I will feel happy It’s also good for your body when you relax.”

Lin Feng saw that the eldest son's eyes were full of anticipation, so he knew that he really wanted to go to Wushan.

He thought about this period of time, whenever the father and son went to Xiaofuju to pay their respects, Lin Yanhong had to be reprimanded by his grandmother to some extent.

The situation of the second son, Lin Yanxing, has been unstable. Little Tong is crying, Lin Feng is exhausted and full of troubles. The time when he walks to Xiaofu residence with Lin Yanhong every morning is a rare quiet time.

He could feel the change in the eldest son's attitude towards him, and he was very happy, but the old illness of the eldest son was also a big rock hanging in his heart, which he couldn't let go of.

Whenever possible, parents want their children to be well, and Lin Feng is no exception.

So what Lin Yanhong said made him both moved and worried.

"If you can't go to Wushan, I can only ask my father to let Dr. Hu prescribe some tranquilizing medicine. Perhaps the situation of Haier Yemeng will also improve."

Lin Yanhong secretly apologized to his father in his heart, and said something that prompted Lin Feng to make a decision.

No matter how effective the medicine for calming the nerves is, it cannot compare to the peace of mind.

Lin Feng heard the words and finally made up his mind: "The medicine is three-point poisonous. How can you think about taking medicine when you are not sick? It is a long way to Wushan, and you must be well prepared before you can let you leave home. Hong'er waits for his father to think about it. , how to arrange it so that nothing will go wrong."

Afterwards, he still invited Dr. Hu to come over, and obtained the other party's own testimony, confirming that Lin Yanhong's health is already in good health, and if he is careful, he can go to Wushan.

Only then did Lin Feng feel relieved a little, and then began to plan how many people he would bring and who to bring.

……

Although Lin Feng had already made a decision, it took quite a bit of twists and turns to get Lin Qiongde and Lin Tong to agree.

Lin Yanhong had an obsession in his heart, and naturally he didn't want to let this matter be blocked, so he took the initiative to mention to Lin Tong that his uncle Lin Jun was about to participate in Qiuwei.

In the Liang system, Beijing officials with a seventh rank or higher, county officials with a sixth rank or higher, and military officials with a fourth rank or higher are all allowed to send one son to study in Taixue or Fuxue, which is called Enyin.

Since Lin Feng had already been favored to study in a government school, Lin Jun, the second son of the Lin family, could only take the exams by himself. First, he was selected through the children's examination, and then entered a government school or county academy, and then took the provincial and general examinations. , and even the imperial examination.

The Qingtong Academy where Lin Jun is located is a county-owned academy, even more famous than the prefectural school.

Lin Jun, who has already obtained a student member, will end up in the autumn of this year. If he can pass the exam in one fell swoop, it will be a great joy for the glorious family.

"My grandson went to Wushan this time, so I can pray for my uncle."

Lin Yanhong knew very well that if he didn't mention some benefits, Lin Tong's dislike for him, just to see that he was unhappy, Lin Tong's will deliberately make this matter dirty.

But if you talk about her baby pimple, it will definitely achieve very good results.

Although Huayin Temple is not in Kyoto, it was built by the eminent monk Leiyin in the past. It is a well-deserved famous temple in the country. For thousands of years, incense has flourished and believers have spread all over Liangzhou. Every year, countless good men and women go to Wushan to pray for themselves or their families. willing.

Lin Tong's age was over fifty, if he hadn't been unable to go there, he would have traveled to Wushan for Lin Jun long ago.

Now, Lin Yanhong suddenly offered to pray for Lin Jun. Lin Tong, who was deliberately obstructing him at the beginning, was gradually persuaded, and instead became a person who "helped him".

The meaning of asking servants to go to Huayin Temple to pray for the master and asking family members to pray for family members is very different. In the hearts of women like Lin Tong, the latter is naturally better.

Now in the long room, Lin Qiongde and Lin Feng naturally couldn't go to Wushan. She herself was powerless, and Mrs. Zhen was worrying about Lin Yanxing, so Lin Yanhong was the only one who could go.

After thinking about this, she immediately helped Lin Feng speak with Lin Qiongde, and finally made the matter happen.

However, in order to ensure that Lin Yanhong did sincerely pray for his uncle during this trip, Lin Tong sent a mother from Xiaofuju to follow Lin Yanhong on the grounds that "it would be better to have more people to serve him when he is away from home". A boy who went to the academy went with them.

In this way, people inside and outside are watching, Lin Tong expected that his "eldest grandson" would not dare to play tricks.

In fact, although Lin Yanhong used Lin Jun's incident as an excuse, he was not prepared to "cross the river and tear down the bridge".

To a certain extent, the better off Lin Jun is, Lin Feng may not be able to please Lin Tong, but if Lin Jun is not doing well, Lin Tong will definitely find a way to make his heir's life even worse .

Lin Yanhong is still young and can't compete with him. He is willing to make some compromises for his father.

What's more, based on what he saw in his "previous life", although Lin Jun failed to rank among the best this time, he was considered a tribute student and became a juren.

At that time, Lin Yanhong, with the name of having prayed for his uncle, can be regarded as "contributing" a little strength, and Lin Tong's face has to say a few good words.

If you don't do things like this, you don't do it for nothing.

So, after Xiaoshu, Lin Yanhong, under the watchful eye of Lin Feng and surrounded by servants of the Lin family, took a carriage through the official road to Wushan in the northeast of Yunshui County, and embarked on an unexpected journey.

It seems that from this moment on, his fate really changed its course, and compared with his "previous life", it has undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Master, let's have some tea, it's really hot today."

Amber placed the tea set embedded with magnets on the table, and wiped the sweat from her head with a handkerchief.

Because the young master is not in good health, even in summer she often coughs against the wind, and she can't smell the scent of balm, so she never puts on powder or spices.

But in this way, it also avoids the embarrassment of getting face powder covered with makeup when sweating.

But when it's hot, you can't stop sweating, and you can't avoid it.

Amber looked at Lin Yanhong who was reclined in the carriage, and found that Lin Yanhong didn't mean to be hot at all. He looked as refreshing as a fine jade, and even felt a chill.

Lin Yanhong held a volume of ancient books in one hand, and turned the pages in an orderly manner with the other hand. Although he didn't look up, he still responded: "Let's put it away, and you can rest for a while, drink more water and it won't be hot... Soon we will go to Yunxi City, there will be an ice room available in the city, it is no different from being in the mansion."

Amber felt that his young master was really powerful. He seemed to have the county map of Yunshui County firmly in his mind, and whenever they passed through every city and county, he knew it clearly. He seemed to be more familiar with the route than the driver.

——Bah, how can you compare the young master with the groom...

Amber patted her mouth, then listened to Lin Yanhong's words, sat aside quietly, and stopped fiddling with the tea set on the table.

Although she is calm, she is only one year older than Lin Yanhong. This is the first time in her life to travel far away, so she is inevitably excited.

She looked out through the cracks in the curtains of the car that were constantly being blown, and felt that the scenery on both sides of the official road that was constantly moving back was particularly interesting.

Lin Yanhong found that there was no movement in the carriage. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the maid who could hardly contain his inner excitement. He felt that the scene was very interesting, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned up before continuing to look down at the book.

Not only Hu Po, but Lin Yanhong himself probably never thought that one day he would be able to leave Lin's mansion and Yunyang City in a carriage, and come to such a far place.

In fact, Amber's feeling was not wrong, Lin Yanhong was indeed not hot at all at this time.

Because the ancient jade on his chest was exuding a gentle coolness, dispelling the dryness in his heart.

——It turns out that this is still a treasure that is warm in winter and cool in summer. No wonder Lin Yanxing refused to return it when he "borrowed" it...

——I just don’t know if he also discovered the secret of Sumi mustard, saw the wooden house and the pool inside...

However, if anyone could discover the secret at any time, then he would have discovered it long ago in his "previous life", and this ancient ancestral jade probably would not have been handed over to him by his grandfather.

So there must be some opportunity for the descendants of the Lin family to enter this treasure.

Lin Yanhong speculated that "life after death" is probably the opportunity!

……

Because of the official way, their itinerary was extremely smooth.

Although Lin Yanhong intends to speed up his pace, Aunt Chun and Hu Po will definitely not allow it.

Moreover, there are Lin Tong and Mrs. Zhen's eyeliners in their team. If Lin Yanhong behaves too anxiously, which does not conform to his "physical condition" and "character", it will easily attract unnecessary attention.

So after deliberately slowing down and stopping all the way, they arrived at Yunxi City at the foot of Wushan Mountain after 20 days away from home.

After entering the city, they settled down in a small courtyard specially leased to officials in the city, and prepared to go up the mountain the next day.

When leasing the small courtyard, I also encountered a little episode.

Because they have a large number of people, but the supply of larger government-owned yards is very tight, and the steward who came out with Lin Yanhong was busy for a long time before he came down to the farm.

Amber lit wormwood and smoked the house. Seeing Lin Yanhong sitting under the vines in the yard enjoying the shade, she walked over curiously and said, "This Yunxi City is already at the border, but I didn't expect it to be more lively than our county's Yunyang City. Could it be?" Is it really because of Hua Yin?"

Lin Yanhong felt that this place was too "lively" and looked unusual.

He was afraid that something happened that they didn't know would delay their going up the mountain tomorrow, so he asked the steward accompanying him to go outside to inquire.

This steward was arranged by Lin Feng. Although his ability to handle affairs was mediocre, at least he really cared about the young master. He was busy all the way and was very attentive.

He had just inquired about some things by the way, and when he saw the young master asking, he quickly replied: "I heard that there are monsters at the junction of Liang and Yong. King Yu, who is guarding the northern border, led troops to suppress them. Because the border is not peaceful, peace Officials from Wujun and Hanyang counties, especially the families of military officials, came to Wushan to seek blessings."

Lin Yanhong was a little surprised when he heard the words: "Didn't you say that there is a state border in Guozuo Town, where demons hide in the mountains?"

When the steward didn't expect his young master to be "ignorant", he thought about it, and replied in a low voice: "There should still be monsters, but the guards guard the border, so that they have nowhere to hide and can only hide in the mountains. "

Seeing the expression on the manager's face, Lin Yanhong knew that he had asked a superficial question.

So he also understood that no matter how many books he read, if he didn't go around and experience it with his own eyes, he might learn some knowledge of "talking on paper" and "frog in the bottom of the well".

"Do you know about King Yu?" Lin Yanhong didn't think it would be shameful to ask the steward, so he simply put aside his reserve and asked, "He is His Majesty's younger brother, since he can guard the northern border, he should be a brave man, right? "

"This, this... The villain only knows that King Yu and his mother, the present, guard the northern border because of the trust of the late emperor and His Majesty."

Lin Yanhong secretly said in his heart, "He also knows these things", and then looked expectantly at the steward, hoping that he could say something more.

The steward suddenly felt the pressure under the young master's gaze, and he thought for a long time before he could hold back a little: "Liang and Yong are married, His Royal Highness Yu Wang was ordered by the emperor to welcome Princess Yong as a concubine and have a son... I heard that Yu Wang's son His health is not very good, he lives deep in the palace, and is not often seen by people."

"Are you in poor health?" Isn't that very similar to his situation, but I don't know if this prince has any other brothers, whether he is living comfortably or not...

After listening to King Yu's "family affairs" for a long time, Lin Yanhong gradually felt a little boring, so he let the steward go and left.

——It's too late for him to take care of his own affairs now, so how can he have the time to think about whether his life is good or not?

I don't know what happened, the closer he was to Yunxi City and Wushan, the stronger his desire to go to Huayin Temple became.

It was as if there was some power in the dark that was attracting him.

It was probably because his wish was about to be fulfilled. Although the scene in the dream was still complicated, he no longer had trouble sleeping and eating. He even slept peacefully and dreamlessly the night he arrived in Yunxi City.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Yanhong got up as early as usual, even though he was no longer in Lin's residence and did not need to greet his grandparents.

Without delay, they immediately packed up and set off for Wushan, and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain. Seeing that it was not too late, but there were quite a few people going up the mountain.

In places where horse-drawn carriages cannot pass, there are soft sedan chairs with sliding poles specially for people to take.

Although most believers insist on going up the mountain by themselves, some old people with inconvenient legs, or the sons and daughters of officials and women who don’t often walk on the mountain road will also take a top. Let people lift it up.

Lin Yanhong's health was getting better and better, but he still knew his own weight, so he didn't try to be brave. After walking for a while, he was out of breath, and he didn't need to wait for the nanny and Amber to persuade him, so he sat on it obediently.

Occasionally, when he came across a soft sedan chair with curtains, he knew that there were female family members sitting in it. Lin Yanhong didn't look at it much, but he couldn't help but think of his biological mother in his heart.

——I don’t know if my mother was like this back then, she had to go to Huayin Temple no matter what, just to pray for his safety?

It is not too far from Hanyang County to Wushan, but from Pingwu, it is farther than Lin Yanhong from Yunyang to Yunxi.

These people who came all the way to Wushan must have very important people in their hearts, so they are always concerned about each other.

When he reached the ancient temple hidden in the mountains and forests, Lin Yanhong got off the sliding pole and climbed up the last section of the road by himself.

The mountains are steep, the road is rugged and tortuous, and I don't know how many times I have turned, and people's eyes suddenly open up.

Lin Yanhong looked up, and in front of him was the gate of Huayin Temple, standing on the steps of the sky, which was amazing.

The whole temple is in the pattern of the pagoda in front and the hall in the back, with the Zhenshen pagoda as the center of the temple. In front of the pagoda are the mountain gate, the bell and drum tower, and the front hall. Behind the pagoda are the Tianwang Hall, the Great Buddha Hall, and the Daxiong Hall.

The bell and drum towers are located on the east and west sides of the mountain gate. They are all square turrets, built on a stone platform, covered with gray tiles, and painted on the forehead, forming a ritual of morning bells and evening drums.

In the temple, a thirteen-storey square pagoda with dense eaves is placed behind the mountain gate because of the relics of Buddha bones.It is said that there is an underground palace under the pagoda, which stores coffins made of red sandalwood and fragrant wood, in which the Buddha's finger bone relics are held in gold bottles.

Behind the Daxiong Hall is the Sengliao Zen Room, as well as the Buddhist Chanting Hall and the inner courtyard that only monks in the temple can enter. The Fabao Pavilion and the Sutra Pavilion of Huayin Temple are also included.

As for the laymen's dormitory for the laymen to stay overnight in the monastery, it is to the east of the Daxiong Hall. Lin Yanhong estimated that there might not be any room left in the layman's dormitory at the moment.

There are people coming and going in the temple, but it seems very quiet. There are monks everywhere, leading believers to walk around in the temple.

Now that he came to Huayin Temple, Lin Yanhong couldn't avoid it. Under Hu Po's silent urging, he asked for a lottery in the treasure hall and changed the lottery.

It's a pity that there are especially many people there, Lin Yanhong thought about it, and decided not to go to join in the fun.

He wandered around in and out of the hall for a while, but wandered to a secluded place unknowingly, even Hu Po and Aunt Chun were lost by him at some point.

Turning around and not knowing how to get back, he wanted to find someone to ask quickly.

At this time, Lin Yanhong saw an older monk sweeping the ground under a bodhi tree with a long broom.

He went over and saluted, expressing that he seemed to have accidentally strayed into the inner courtyard of the temple, hoping to find a way back.

The old monk looked benevolent, but he didn't direct Lin Yanhong the way. He looked at Lin Yanhong's hand and suddenly asked, "What is the benefactor asking for?"

Lin Yanhong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he understood what the other party was asking. He smiled slightly and said, "It's all ordinary things."

When he asked for a lottery, he only wanted to be safe and happy with himself and the important people around him.

As for revenge or something, he didn't intend to use it to disturb the Buddha - because there are some things that he has to be responsible for after all.

"As soon as Wu Xin flies out of Xiu, how long does it feel to relax everywhere..."

The old monk also smiled back at Lin Yanhong: "This is a lottery, the benefactor just wait for the good news."

Lin Yanhong was surprised when he heard the other party's words.

He slowly unfolded the folded label, and there was a row of small words inside, which were the words that the old monk read just now.

The author has something to say: "Wushan" in ancient poems and songs, except for geographically specific realism, is mostly just a general reference.

Wushan in the first volume of this article "Wushan Clouds and Waters" is not Wushan in the current geographical category, cute people, don't pay attention to the name~
