Li Daitao

Pufang Temple was built in the middle of the mountain, and it is really magnificent.The surrounding scenery is elegant, and there are also some impressive places.

Qin Shu was not a superstitious person, and now he took the theory of gods and ghosts lightly. He saw that there were many pilgrims in the hall, bustling with each other.He didn't want to join in the fun, but just took a look outside.On the contrary, it was Yi Zhen's interest that he didn't know where he came from, he just squeezed into the crowd of pilgrims who were praying and fulfilling their wishes, went into the hall to burn incense, and really bowed down.

After visiting a few places like this, Qin Shu felt a little boring, so he walked to a quiet place intentionally or unintentionally.Slowly came to the back mountain outside the temple, picked a place with a wide view, and sat down on a big rock under a tree to rest.

Qin Shu casually asked him if he had made any wishes just now when he was offering incense in the hall.Yi Zhen refused to speak, and it would not work if he said it in a serious manner.

Qin Shu didn't really want to know, seeing that he was hiding it, he stopped asking.Changed his words and asked: "Then do you still remember which Bodhisattva you worshiped just now? Manjusri? Or Samantabhadra? Or something else?"

Yi Zhen was dumbfounded, unable to answer.

Qin Shu lowered his eyes, holding back a smile and not looking at him.

After a while, Yi Zhen answered dryly: "Anyway, they are gods, as long as they have their own mind." Then he talked about him from left to right.

Qin Shu just listened silently, and occasionally smiled slightly, which made Yi Zhen feel uplifted, and he could speak freely. Seeing Qin Shu's faint tiredness, he couldn't help asking him about his diet, rest, and recent plans. nagging.

Qin Shu had nothing to hide, so he told each of them frankly.It’s just that he’s been wandering around for the past few days. He’s bought some fields outside the city, and he’s even negotiated with the tenants. This year, he’ll just let them plant first, and he’ll only collect rent next year. It can be regarded as settled.Speaking of which, he sincerely thanked Yi Zhen for the silver tael that he gave Liang Xiao, neither angrily accepting it, nor taking it for granted, he only said that he would return the money if he had money in the future, and ignored Yi Zhen's repeated words of no need.

As for himself, he hasn't had time to find something to do.Firstly, his identity might be hard to find, and secondly, even if he is found, it might be troublesome if people recognize him in the future. Thinking about it this way, he might as well do some business to make a living.

Seeing Yi Zhen staring at him in a daze after speaking, Qin Shu smiled: "It's all trivial things, I think you don't like to hear them either. I'm just asking you to rest assured that I'm living a good life by talking about these things to Lord Hou. Gotta go down, really."

The words were picked up by Yi Zhen himself, and the high-spirited young man from a few years ago in his memory seems to be still in front of him, but he heard that he calmly arranged his future livelihood like a commoner, and the world was changing with each passing day. It has changed a lot.Although Qin Shu spoke in a calm tone, being able to calmly worry about these trivial matters, Yi Zhen felt that he had truly come back to life.

But I still couldn't help but feel a little sour in my heart: "I don't dislike hearing it." Yi Zhen tried to make his voice sound calmer, and said with a low laugh: "If you really do business, I will be your buddy in the future, no need Just pay the wages and take care of food and shelter."

Maybe it was because his tone was too serious, and there was no hint of a joke in his expression.Qin Shu's expression was slightly different, he glanced at him, pondered for a while, and just laughed it off: "I dare not use you, you are so picky like Xiaoji, I will pay you if you don't want wages."

Seeing that he didn't shirk, Yi Zhen smiled and said nothing more.

He also knows that some things have to be done step by step, and he will not be entangled in this matter now.For a moment, I remembered Xu Ji's explanation, and thinking back on this journey, I didn't see anything that the little guy wanted.

Qin Shu thought for a while: "I won't meet these things when I go back, and I won't be able to buy them on the way, so I'll give them to him another day."

Yi Zhen was obviously a little embarrassed, and said reluctantly: "I won't buy him anything. He knew there was going to be trouble."

Qin Shu frowned, and said slightly displeased: "That's how he spoiled you, he is so used to it that he doesn't know how to restrain himself." Although he said so, he pointed to a fruit forest in the east, which is the property of the temple, let Yi Zhen go Buy some fruit to take home.

Yi Zhen complied naturally, Qin Shu let him go alone, and waited for him at the same place.

When he turned back, it was almost evening, and the clouds in the west had been dyed golden red. Qin Shu stood with his hands behind his back, looking in that direction calmly.

Seeing him approaching, he suddenly raised his finger and pointed: "That's where the imperial mausoleum is."

Yi Zhen was unexpected, he thought for a while before he understood what he was talking about.There was an abrupt 'ah'.It took a long time before he said, "Didn't you say you haven't been here..."

"I have never been to the temple, but I have been to the imperial mausoleum during the sacrifice." Qin Shu said lightly, with a solemn expression, but he was not happy or angry. "Actually, today, I intend to come over and take a look."

Yi Zhen was stunned again, suddenly he didn't know what to say, and said for a while, "I can suggest to Emperor Qing that Enzhun transport Emperor Jingwen's body back here for burial."

Qin Shu's heart moved slightly, and when he thought about it carefully, the heart of reciprocating with fists and punches in the past seemed to have passed away, but now he was only at a loss.Even though he had a fight with Emperor Jingwen and his ministers, thinking about what would happen to Emperor Jingwen, he also felt chilling.Hearing Yi Zhen say this, he said thank you softly.

Yi Zhen followed his gaze, how could he see anything from such a distance, only the setting sun was like blood, reflecting the valley was full of red light, and the shadows revealed some dilapidated taste.For some reason, Yi Zhen felt a little guilty, and said bravely, "If you want to go to worship, I will accompany you to go another day."

Qin Shu turned his head and looked at his face, and saw that although he was a little uncomfortable, he didn't seem reluctant, so he shook his head and said, "As Hou Ye said, as long as you have your heart. Alright." Then he lowered his eyes: "At that time, everyone was their own master, and Lord Hou doesn't have to make things difficult now. If you really go, don't you feel embarrassed?"

Saying this, there was no annoyance in the words, seeing that Yi Zhen had bought a lot of fruits, he shared some for him.The two returned from the same way.

When we got home, it was already dark, and Xu Ji had already had dinner, probably because he was tired from playing during the day, and his face was sleepy, so he didn't want to think about his snacks.

Yi Zhen didn't mention that he was going to leave, Qin Shu probably knew that he was difficult to deal with and couldn't be driven away easily, so he didn't try to run on him again.

It's just that the little guy has a good memory, so he didn't have time to ask for it the first day, but when he woke up early the next morning, he couldn't forget to eat the rose cake.

Qin Shu went out to look around, wondering if there was any suitable business, and had to make a detour to buy it for him when he came back.

When he came back, he saw Xu Ji playing with some nearby children from a distance.

When he got closer and could see more clearly, Xu Ji stepped on the stone slab for people to sit on the side of the road, with one hand on his hip, with a stubborn look on his face.

That's all, I can only hear him say in a very natural way: "Stinky dog, you son of a bitch...?#￥?%..." A few children grew up in the market, so The words were already familiar to him, and he didn't care at all on his face, just laughing and cursing at random.

Although Xu Ji was eloquent and eloquent, he was taught by the tutor of the Hou Mansion, and he had never heard him utter a word of obscenity, so Qin Shu's eyes were opened now.

It turned out that Xu Ji felt that he had to lay a solid foundation here, and that meant building a good relationship with the friends around him.Although he is young, he is quick-witted and lively, courageous and versatile, and within a day or two he has become the head of the children in this area.It's just that the mermaids and dragons living in this place are mixed, and there are all kinds of people of all kinds. The children are not as simple as the children in the village back then.

Xu Ji didn't necessarily understand what it meant, he just thought it was so interesting, he was already smart and had a good memory, and within a long time, he learned to swear and swear.

Just as he was working hard, the children around him screamed and scattered like birds and beasts.

Xu Ji turned around in surprise, and saw Qin Shu standing not far behind him.He cheered and was about to rush over.Seeing that Qin Shu's face was cloudy and uncertain, and his eyes almost burst into flames when he was staring at him, he was obviously very angry. Although Xu Ji didn't quite understand, he could see that his eyebrows were high and his eyes were low, and he hesitated , the action is a meal.

Occasionally before, Yi Zhen made up his mind to deal with this child. Although Qin Shu didn't show any expression on his face, he still felt sorry for him when he was about to do something serious.But right now, Qin Shu was so angry that he felt that this kid really should be taught, otherwise it would become more and more embarrassing, and he reached out to catch him.Xu Ji saw the opportunity very quickly, jumped off the rock, turned around and ran home, shouting as he ran, "Grandpa, grandpa! Grandpa save me..."
