old grace

It is still the Zen room.

It is still the old-fashioned and clean cloud bed.

Xie Qinghe changed into a clean monk robe and sniffed the light sandalwood. Although his whole body was still in pain, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This feeling of being able to see the bright sunshine from the window lattice is far more wonderful than the feeling of being shrouded in dark devilish energy in the Heart Demon Pool.What's more, the monk whose thumb was just cut off by him didn't turn his back on him and chase him down. Instead, he gave him clothes, a bed, and is still cooking noodles for him.

Without a thumb, it is inconvenient to do anything.Both hands of the monk were wrapped in gauze, and he was clumsily stirring the casserole with chopsticks.

Xie Qinghe smelled something wrong: "What did you put in the noodle soup?"

The monk wrapped the casserole with a cloth, took the freshly cooked noodles from the tea stove, and put them on the tray.

Probably because he was afraid of scalding Xie Qinghe, the monk picked up the tray and put it down again. He stepped forward to help Xie Qinghe up and leaned on the bed, and after making sure that Xie Qinghe would not slip due to exhaustion, he removed the small coffee table with the chessboard on the couch by the window. Put Xie Qinghe on the Zen bed.

Xie Qinghe watched him busy before and after, and finally delivered the bowl of boiling hot casserole noodles to him safely.

A beautiful bowl of noodles.

Snow-white noodles, green vegetables, winter bamboo shoots cut evenly with chopsticks, and two shiitake mushrooms.

Smelling it so close at hand, Xie Qinghe was sure that there was definitely a spoonful of lard in the soup!

The monk recited a Buddhist name: "The poor monk knows that the benefactor does not ask for rich clothes and fine food, but only clean food and good food. Precepts are the precepts of the poor monk, not the precepts of the benefactor." He looked very peaceful, with a pair of quiet and dark Looking at Xie Qinghe with both eyes, he couldn't see the slightest bit of hostility and hatred, "The benefactor swallowed the demons, and his life is not long. How can a poor monk be stingy with a spoonful of oil?"

Xie Qinghe's muscles and bones were not only cracked, but his internal organs were also bruised.From the pharynx, larynx, esophagus, stomach to intestines, there are bleeding wounds.

In his condition, he couldn't eat anything at all.

But, apart from pain, there is hunger and thirst.The burden on the skin is too great, and the body instinctively craves energy and wants to heal itself.

A bowl of steaming casserole noodles was placed in front of him, Xie Qinghe could only smell it to satisfy his craving.

"You can think about it very much." Xie Qinghe covered his throat, the blood in his throat was coagulating and agglomerating, and it was inevitable to touch it when he spoke, and coughed out itchy.Most of it was spit in Xie Qinghe's hand, and some of it splashed on the tea table too much to cover up.

The monk got up and wiped the table with a clean towel, and brought a basin of water to wipe Xie Qinghe's hands.

Regarding Xie Qinghe's confusion, his answer was very calm: "It's just a skin."

"What's more," he threw the towel stained with Xie Qinghe's blood into the basin. The monk's hands were wounded and he couldn't clean it up. , you won't live for a few months."

Xie Qinghe looked at the mischievous rays of sunlight coming in through the window, and said with a smile: "A few months is almost enough."

The monk put down the basin and came back, seeing Xie Qinghe not moving his chopsticks, he asked, "Shall I feed you?"

Xie Qinghe was tired even shaking his head: "I can't eat it. It's all broken inside. If you close the door and let me close my eyes and rest for a quarter of an hour, it's better than eating dragon meat."

The monk wants to collect the bowl of noodles.

"Wait a minute." Xie Qinghe stopped again.

The monk was puzzled.

"Looking at plum blossoms quenches thirst, understand?"

Xie Qinghe sighed, feeling a little regretful: "This is the best bowl of noodles you have ever cooked for me."

The noodles cooked by monks in the past did not contain onion, ginger and garlic, let alone lard.

The monk got up and walked to the door, closing the door.To Xie Qinghe's surprise, the monk didn't wink at him, and closed the door for him as he wished, but the monk stayed inside the door, and sat down on the futon on the east side where he was doing meditation.

Xie Qinghe had no choice but to open his eyes and look at him: "I want to rest for a while."

The monk held the beads in both hands and said softly, "If we bid farewell today, we will see each other indefinitely."

"so what?"

"So, I want to see you more." The monk's voice was gentle and calm, as if he didn't know what he said.

Xie Qinghe was silent for a moment, then said: "You don't eat meat."

There is a difference in the smell of people who are vegetarians all year round and those who are not taboo.Ordinary people may not be able to smell it, what kind of cultivation is Xie Qinghe?From the first time he reunited with the old monk, he knew that the monk had not broken the precepts.To say that the monk is dishonest is nothing more than taking advantage of his mouth.

The monk didn't know what his words meant, so he thought about it and said, "I won't eat it. You can eat it."

"Since you don't eat meat, why did you find a spoonful of lard in the meditation room?" Xie Qinghe asked.

Why is there a jar of lard in the monk's meditation room?

Shu Hanyun knew that he went to buy erotic brochures in secret, Xie Qinghe was more experienced than him, when he was young, he was used to seeing things in the market when he traveled the rivers and lakes.Between men, if the boudoir affairs are not in harmony, just buy a can of lard.

After all, he lived in Anguo Temple, and the lard jar was well hidden by the monk, but Xie Qinghe couldn't find it when he ransacked the box.

However, when he came to drink tea in the monk's meditation room earlier, he found a golden hairpin with the pattern of Qingyun.

Anguo Temple is full of bald heads, who needs hairpins?What's more, it's a golden hairpin with Qingyun pattern?

——I think there is only the "His Royal Highness" who was accepted by the monk and studied Buddhism.

Rituals, clothes and crowns.

What kind of intimacy would make His Royal Highness, the prince, leave his hairpin in the monk's Zen room?

Xie Qinghe doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs.

What is the relationship between the monk and the prince, and whether the monk breaks the rules or not, he doesn't care.

Thinking that the monk tried his best to break the rules and gave him the spoonful of lard to cook his noodles, Xie Qinghe was quite moved, but he didn't care about the planned use of the spoonful of lard.

but.

If the monk insisted on opening a rotten peach blossom for him, Xie Qinghe couldn't bear it.

You are fucking the young and lovely Prince who has fallen into the devil, and at the same time pretending to be an infatuated person in front of me who is dying, this is wrong!

There are two ways to use a can of lard with you?One spoonful for the little prince's lower mouth, one spoonful for me Xie Qinghe's upper mouth?Well, you flower monk, are you not delaying the two? !

A wise man doesn't have to tear his face apart when he speaks.

Xie Qinghe asked lightly, the monk's face turned red and then turned pale, but he finally stood up and fled.

It's a pity this bowl of noodles.

Xie Qinghe closed his eyes, letting the warm sunlight fall on his pale and chapped face.

Time is precious.Said to rest for a quarter of an hour, just rest for a quarter of an hour.

■

The monk asserted that Xie Qinghe only had a few months to live.

Xie Qinghe himself can't say how long he can live.His current physical load is very heavy, and he may collapse at any time.

After going through these two days, his cultivation base can allow the internal organs in his body to heal in a good direction, so that he has the hope of surviving.After all, he hasn't reached the point where he can live without food, how can he be full just by eating and drinking?He is not a dragon.

If there is a backlog of injuries in the body and the viscera cannot heal on their own, he does have three or two months left.

Xie Qinghe had hope in surviving, and was prepared to die, and had secretly recalled the Da Luo Mie Sheng Sutra several times.

The things you want to do are listed one by one, and there is no priority, and you can only do it from near to far.

——Leaving the Inner Demon Pool, he doesn't have the ability to travel thousands of miles in a blink of an eye.Once you leave Dragon City, you may die and come back.

Therefore, it can only be done nearby.He had to plan a route for himself after leaving Dragon City to avoid delays due to detours.

After leaving Anguo Temple, Xie Qinghe found Qin Xun's home according to his memory, and he wanted to return Qin Xun's lost earth soul.

No matter how failed Qin Xun was in life, Xie Qinghe looked down on him when he heard his complaints, but this person was a drinker who got involved in the demon king's harm for no reason.When Xie Qinghe arrived at Qin's house, the Qin's house was already in chaos, monks, Taoists, priests, witches and doctors were all coming in and out. The mansion was still beating gongs, chanting sutras and offering sacrifices, it was very lively.

Qin Xun once complained that his descendants were unworthy.Xie Qinghe looked at the Qin family after he passed out, and there was indeed no one who could do the job.

He uncorked the medicine bottle and released Qin Xun's earth soul, which was about to climb up the roof again.Xie Qinghe was angry and funny: "Are you addicted to squatting?" This earth soul likes to squat on the roof of his own house in the magic lair. At that time, he was trapped in the magic lair and couldn't go back. What's going on now?

Xie Qinghe was too busy to take care of himself now, and really didn't have time to solve Qin Xun's troubles, so he forcibly raised his breath and sent a calming spell, at least he stuffed the earth soul that was crawling on the roof in a daze into Qin Xun's skin.

As soon as the soul returned to its place, the sleeping Qin Xun opened his eyes, just in time for the sorceress to spray his face with a talisman.

The old woman and the concubine were still clapping their hands by the bed and exclaiming in alarm: "Oh! I'm so good, I woke up!"

Qin Xun was so angry that he sat up straight up: "How decent is Cheng? Hurry up and send it out!"

Xie Qinghe just slipped down from the roof.He is really weak now, and it is not easy to imagine how tall he used to be.

Just thinking about walking like this is not a problem, before leaving Beijing, I have to find a way to walk.Whether it's a horse or a donkey, tell him to walk out, I'm afraid he won't be able to support it now.Two people came to face him, it was actually Li Qian and Lu Yuan.

"Master Immortal is auspicious." Both of them bowed to each other in a very respectful manner.

"It doesn't matter if Li Qian is waiting for me here, why are you here?" Xie Qinghe asked Lu Yuan.

Li Qian wanted to hug his thigh, Xie Qinghe also agreed to give him a hug, that day he left in a hurry, Li Qian felt anxious and wanted to turn to him, Xie Qinghe was not surprised.Both of them gathered at the door of Qin's house, they were waiting for him.

He intervened in the lives of Li Qian and Lu Yuan, so why didn't Li Qian and Lu Yuan share his life?

Li Qian and Lu Yuan judged his xinxing behavior from his behavior when he became a demon, and they chose to guard the Qin family, which can be said to know each other very well.

Lu Yuan explained: "I originally wanted to leave immediately. It will take some time to find a way out. After two days, I heard that the Qin family is still in trouble, and Master Qin has not woken up yet... This is not true. You act in a manner. I wonder if you have encountered some inconvenience."

Therefore, Lu Yuan temporarily decided not to leave.

Qin Xun's official position is not very big, and his family is not qualified to open the door on both sides, so it is not troublesome to keep an eye on it.

Since there was only one door to go in and out, Li Qian had to watch, and Lu Yuan also had to watch, so of course they bumped into each other.

Because of Xie Qinghe, the two can be regarded as having some "brotherhood". Li Qian is a helper who can flatter others, and Lu Yuan often flatters his brother-in-law's former wife's son-in-law. At the nearby tea stand, while watching the various products of the Qin family come and go, they chatted and bragged.

Xie Qinghe is also used to send messengers, so he immediately told Lu Yuan: "I'm fine, since you want to pick up elder sister, go and handle your business."

Before Lu Yuan could reply, he told Li Qian again: "You just happened to bump into me. I'm not in good health now, you prepare a car for me, and there must be clean water and clothes in the car... Well, can you drive a car? "Speaking, he handed over the bank note that came out of the monk's meditation room to Li Qian.

How could Lu Yuan dare to object to Xie Qinghe's thoughtful appearance?He only said that his family has horses and carts, and there are ready-made grooms.Xie Qinghe was sitting and resting at the tea stand, while Lu Yuan ran all the way home, prepared the carriage and clean clothes, and came in a hurry.

Xie Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief when he got into the carriage, and said, "Thank you today."

Lu Yuan stood in front of the car and opened his mouth, and said after a while, "You...you have to take care."

The curtain of the carriage was drawn down, and Xie Qinghe didn't see anything else.Li Qian signaled to Lu Yuan that "he is uncomfortable", and Lu Yuan took a step back with red eyes: "Let's go. Hu, drive carefully, don't bump my husband."

Old Hu grinned with eight yellow teeth, agreed first, and then asked, "Master, where are we going?"

Xie Qinghe said: "I don't know what it's called. Li Qian, it's the restaurant we first met."

When he first arrived in Dragon City, he took a flying kite and watched the most brightly lit place in the city fly by. He probably knew that it was the square gate, but he didn't know the specific address.It was too difficult for him to describe it to the coachman.Li Qian was sitting in front of him, and he had a ready-made clever mouth, so he didn't need it for nothing.

The carriage bumped no matter what.

However, compared with the strenuous effort to support oneself to walk, this bit of bumping is completely tolerable.

Xie Qinghe half-closed his eyes, resting his mind and nourishing his mind, so as to strengthen his spiritual cultivation and try to help the heavily loaded viscera to recover to health.

When his consciousness was sluggish and erratic, Xie Qinghe automatically woke up.The next moment, Li Qian heard Li Qian say softly: "Master Immortal, we're here." The carriage wobbled to a stop just now.

Xie Qinghe wanted to send Li Qian very much.

pity.Li Qian is just a mortal, not a junior who can run or fly on the cold mountain.

He gritted his teeth and got out of the carriage, walked a few steps forward, raised his head in the dark alley, but still couldn't see the place where he hid the flying kite.In the past, you can climb the wall with a light swipe, but today it is a toss.First I found a short eaves, stretched out my hand to use my strength to jump up, Xuanchi was in severe pain, but my calf and Achilles tendon also hurt...

Xie Qinghe sighed inwardly, why did I hide it so secretly!

So much so that he climbed up to the roof with great difficulty, and when he found the well-hidden flying kite in the shadow of the eaves, Xie Qinghe mercilessly scratched the engraved runes on the flying kite to pieces.

Feiyuan cannot be taken away.Now he doesn't have the physical strength to ride Feiyuan, and he can't leave Feiyuan in Dragon City undefended.

He also thought about whether he could hide in the Patriarch's space.

—If he could go eight feet high and sneak up on the roof without making a sound, it would be done.

Now there are a bunch of onlookers carrying vegetable baskets and oil paper bags, what else can they do?Under the watchful eyes of everyone, come to change the flying kite with one hand?Disappeared with a whoosh?I'm afraid that before the city gate is closed today, his carriage will not even think about leaving Dragon City.

Such things as the court, when you are strong, it does not exist at all.As soon as you are weak, it will teach you to be a man.

Xie Qinghe couldn't afford to be entangled, so he could only kill Feiyuan and slip away.

When he slipped down the eaves to the ground, there were already good people in the restaurant opposite who had set up ladders and were poking their heads to see what he was doing on the roof, and there was an old lady passing a message from a distance: "It's a big kite! Where did it come from?" big kite?!"

Xie Qinghe got into the carriage and quickly lay flat: "Leave the city. Exit the Suzaku Gate."
