Christmas

Night fell, heralding the end of another day.

Shi Xieban hugged Xia Yao and watched TV, while Xiao Shen and He Bishen sat obediently beside Xia Yao and watched the cartoon characters on TV seriously.

"Honey, I'm so sleepy."

Xia Yao rubbed his eyes and rubbed Shi Xie's neck coquettishly, and couldn't help yawning.

"We're going to sleep when we're tired."

Shi Xie fondled Xia Yao's hair, and led him to stand up.

"Little Shen Bishen, you guys go to sleep too."

"Okay Dad, good night Mom and Dad~"

"Okay, good night father, good night little dad."

Xiao Shen and He Bishen nodded obediently, turned off the TV, and He Bishen took Xiao Shen's hand and went back to their room.

Xiao Shen and He Bishen were very well-behaved, which saved Shi Xie a lot of energy. Seeing Xiao Shen and the others enter the room and close the door, Shi Xie also took Xia Yao back to the room.

Ever since Xia Yao was hit by the thought of not returning, Shi Xie soon noticed that Xia Yao began to become very lethargic, and always felt very sleepy.

exhausted.

As soon as Xia Yao got under the quilt, he immediately reached out and hugged Shi Xie's waist tightly, as if he was afraid that he would run away.

"Hey, go to sleep, good night."

Shi Xie lowered his head and kissed Xia Yao lightly on the forehead, and Xia Yao also kissed Shi Xie back forcefully on Shi Xie's face.

"Good night husband

Xia Yao closed his eyes, and soon there was a steady breathing sound. Shi Xie turned his head and looked at Xia Yao's peaceful sleeping face, and couldn't help sighing.

Gently raised Xia Yao's left hand, and saw that the red dot on the middle finger had spread along the palm to the wrist. Shi Xie pursed his lips, feeling a fit of irritability in his heart. He took a deep breath and pulled Xia Yao's pajamas Sleeves pulled down.

Reaching out to brush away the hair on Xia Yao's forehead, his thumb gently stroked the skin on Xia Yao's forehead.

It has been two days since I came to Shonan, after tonight and tomorrow will be the third day.During the past two days, they searched for a lot of antidote to missing thoughts, but they found nothing. Shi Xie wondered if the pawnshop owner was lying to him, but if he was afraid that he was lying to him, then the pawnshop owner How did he know that Xia Yao would be poisoned?

Frowning, Shi Xie didn't pay attention to his hand, and suddenly exerted force on the thumb pad that was rubbing Xia Yao's forehead, Xia Yao suddenly groaned uncomfortably, and moved his head.

Shi Xie was startled, and reacted quickly, let go of his hand and kissed Xia Yao's forehead lightly. Xia Yao smacked his lips, hugged Shi Xie's arms tightly, and fell asleep again.

Things are completely out of his control now, which makes Shi Xie very unhappy, but he can't, now that Xia Yao's life is still in the hands of the person behind the scenes, Shi Xie dare not relax his vigilance easily.

With seven days left, Shi Xie's eyes on Xia Yao instantly became firm.

Xiao Yao, I will definitely not let you die, I am willing to give everything, even my life, to let you live.

Although the night is long, it passes very quickly when you sleep, just when you close your eyes and open your eyes, the night passes, and the dawn

advent.

Today is the third day in Shonan, and the few of them are still going to find a way to solve the problem of not returning.

After simply having breakfast, Baili Qianyan and Shi Lin also happened to arrive at their room.

"Cousin, did you sleep well last night?"

As soon as Baili Qianyan entered the door, he went to Xia Yao's side and talked with him. Xia Yao also liked Baili Qianyan very much, so he turned his head and gave Baili Qianyan a big smile.

"Sleep well."

"That's good, then let's go out and play together again today."

Hearing Baili Qianyan's words, Xia Yao immediately nodded happily. I ate a lot of delicious food when I went out to play yesterday, but there are still many that I haven't eaten. I will definitely let my husband buy it back today.

"Auntie, where are we going to play today?"

As soon as he heard about going out to play, Xiao Shen immediately approached Baili Qianyan with bright eyes and asked eagerly.Looking at Xiao Shen's puppy-like eyes, Baili Qian couldn't help poking his little head.

"Just know how to play. I ate so many snacks yesterday. I won't buy them for you today."

As soon as he heard that there was no more delicious food, Xiao Shen immediately put on a chubby face, and pulled Baili Qianyan's sleeve in a fawning manner, begging in a low voice

"Good aunt, good aunt, you just buy it for Xiaocan. Xiaocan will listen to you from now on, auntie, auntie, you are the best." Seeing Xiaocan pleading for his own little ginseng because of the lack of food, Bai Li Qianyan really didn't know whether to laugh or get angry, he couldn't help poking Xiao Shen's forehead with his long, slender fingers.

"You little foodie, don't you even want your bones for food?"

Unexpectedly, after listening to Baili Qianyan's words, Xiao Shen suddenly puffed up his chubby face, let go of the hand that was holding Baili Qianyan's sleeve, and snorted forcefully.

"Little ginseng has backbone!"

"Okay, okay, you have the most backbone, I don't know who just said that as long as you buy him delicious food, you will listen to me for everything in the future.

"

"me……,,

Being teased by Baili Qianyan like this, Xiao Shen stared at a pair of big eyes and was a little at a loss. He looked at this for a while and looked at that for a while, his chubby face was wrinkled in a tangle, as if he was wondering whether he wanted to eat or to have a backbone Such things are tangled.

And at this moment, Shi Xie suddenly stood up and said.

"It's getting late, let's go out."

Xiao Shen was taken aback for a moment, then stared blankly at Shi Xie.Seeing his silly appearance, Baili Qianyan couldn't help but burst out laughing out of nowhere, and Xia Yao on the side also laughed along with him.

Xiao Shen, who had reacted, looked at the laughing Baili Qianyan, his small face drooped suddenly, and he snorted softly from his small nose.

"Xiao Shen, let's go out to play."

Xia Yao took Xiao Shen's hand and kissed his soft cheek, and Xiao Shen immediately rubbed against Xia Yao's neck affectionately.

rub.

After all, there was still business to do, the few of them didn't play around anymore, they got dressed and left the hotel.

Shi Xie still guarded Xia Yao carefully, Shi Lin and Baili Qianyan led He Bishen and Xiao Shen to walk on both sides of him.

"Cousin, let's go to Lanhan Temple today."

Shi Xie hummed in response to Shi Lin's words. Yesterday he and Shi Lin looked up some information about Xiangnan, and they happened to turn to Lanhan Temple.

When Lanhan Temple was built, there is no specific record in the book, but there are many miracles about Lanhan Temple, so Shi Xie plans to go to Lanhan Temple to try his luck.

After sitting in the car for nearly an hour, they finally came to Lanhan Temple.

The scale of Lanhan Temple is not large. The quaint buildings exude the vicissitudes of history, but they are also leisurely and grand, revealing a sense of open-mindedness that sees through the world.

Among the pilgrims of Lanhan Temple, there are only a few scattered pilgrims holding incense candles, kneeling devoutly in front of the Buddha, and a monk wearing a monk's robe is sweeping the stones on the steps with a long bamboo broom. fallen leaves.

Shi Xie protected Xia Yao and raised his foot to step over the threshold. Xia Yao looked at the temple curiously, his eyes sparkling, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Go look elsewhere"

Shi Xie leaned in front of Shi Lin and Baili Qianyan and whispered, Shi Lin and Baili Qianyan nodded, and pulled He Bishen and Xiao Shen over.

Shi Xie held Xia Yao in his arms and looked up at the weather-beaten hall. Hearing the sound of wooden fish coming from inside, Shi Xie took Xia Yao and stepped up the steps leading to the hall.

"Husband, what is this place?"

Xia Yao put his head in front of Shi Xie and asked in a low voice, as if afraid of disturbing something.

Seeing his cute appearance, Shi Xie couldn't help but smile, and raised his hand to caress Xia Yao's cheek with his fingertips.

"This is a temple, I'll take you in and have a look."

"it is good?"

Xia Yao rubbed Shi Xie's hand affectionately, followed Shi Xie's footsteps into the hall with a smile.

The sound of the wooden fish, the rhythm is neither fast nor slow, neither crisp nor blunt, but the sound hits the person's heart heavily, but the heart slowly calms down.

His head was clear, and only the sound of wooden fish remained. Shi Xie let out a foul breath, and pulled Xia Yao forward.

An old gray-robed monk with white beard and long eyebrows closed his eyes and sat quietly on the futon, beating the wooden fish with his hands.

He was sitting here, if it wasn't for the sound of the wooden fish, probably no one would have noticed him.

Shi Xie pulled Xia Yao forward and stood still in front of the old monk.

"Master, I have come to ask for something."

Shi Xie looked down at the old monk and waited quietly. Xia Yao followed Shi Xie's example and stood obediently without speaking.The hand of the old monk beating the wooden fish suddenly stopped, and the rhythmic sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly, leaving the hall alone in silence.

"Amitabha."

The old monk recited the Buddha's name and slowly opened his eyes.

Shi Xie saw that his eyes were cloudy, but he was blind.

The old monk stood up slowly from the futon, his old face was neither happy nor sad, just like the Buddha in the temple.

The old monk's eyes moved, slowly looking at Shi Xie and Xia Yao, although there was no brilliance in his eyes.

But Shi Xie knew that he could see it, but what the old monk saw was different from ordinary people, what he saw was more transparent and thorough

"What is the benefactor asking for?"

"I can't think of returning."

When Shi Xie said this, he saw the old monk's eyebrows move slightly, and then he let out a long sigh.

"The benefactor knows the unsolvable things, so why bother to go through this."

Shi Xie frowned sharply and looked at the old monk.

"If you don't try it, how will you know that it is an unsolvable thing!"

"I can't explain it, I can't see it clearly, benefactor, you are a demon. Amitabha——"

The old monk clasped his palms together and recited the Buddha's mantra once again.

"You say there is no solution, but I just don't believe it!"

As he said that, Shi Xie grabbed Xia Yao's hand abruptly, turned around and was about to leave, but only heard the old monk recite the Buddha's name again.

"It's life or death, it can be seen as a word for love, life is also for love, death is also for love, why should there be love."

Shi Xie stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look back, and saw the gray-robed old monk was facing away from him with his palms folded, reverently facing the Buddha statue in the temple with no joy or sorrow.

"Life is for love, death is also for love, why should there be love?

Everyone knows that the word love is the most embarrassing.

The master devotes all his heart to the Buddha, how can he understand us ordinary people if he has no desire and no emotion.If there is love, life will be happy; if there is no love, death will not hurt

!,,

Shi Xie turned his head, took Xia Yao's hand and stepped out of the threshold, out of the hall surrounded by candles and smoke.

Hearing the sound of Shi Xie's footsteps fading away, the old monk slowly opened his cloudy eyes, looked up at the tall golden Buddha statue, two lines of clear tears suddenly flowed from his eyes, and ran across his old cheeks.

"If you have love, you will be happy in life; if you are ruthless, death will hurt you...

Hahaha, Buddha, I regret it, I regret it..."

The old monk knelt down slowly with trembling body, his forehead resting on the ground, and muddy tears dripped down on the ground.

The Buddha in the hall still has his eyes closed tightly, his Dharma image is golden, and he is merciful.
