Xiaodie's expression changed drastically, and she opened the curtain and looked outside as if facing a formidable enemy.
Everything was normal outside, Xiaodie said: "What's going on?"
The driver responded: "There are many potholes on the road and it's not stable, but don't worry, girl, it's okay!"
Xiaodie breathed a sigh of relief.
Ming Qinxue smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous. I'm not the only one on this road. There are many people."
The same road goes up the mountain. However, although there is only one official road going up the mountain to the second peak Baiyun Temple and the fourth peak Jiyun Academy, there are several side roads along the way. These are all shortcuts taken by passers-by in the past.
, it becomes a road as you walk.
Xiaodie was nervous all the way, but Ming Qinxue began to take a nap with her eyes closed. When they reached a side road, the coachman asked: "Girl, are you going to the second peak or the fourth peak?"
Ming Qinxue opened her eyes and said: "The second peak!"
The driver responded: "Yes!"
The carriage went straight up the mountain, swaying, and Ming Qinxue, who had closed his eyes to relax, opened his eyes. The road up the mountain was still not smooth.
She opened the long drawer of the carriage and took out a scroll.
The painting scroll is exquisitely framed, and her tranquil face is a little more pious. In the painting, the young man in green shirt has a smile on his face, which is romantic and elegant. His clear and spacious appearance, his demeanor like the breeze and the bright moon, anyone can take a look at it.
, will be unforgettable.
But there are only eyebrows.
Ming Qinxue really couldn't figure out the position below the eyebrows, so she simply painted it like a blue cloth mask.
At this time, she looked at the painting with gentle eyes, gently caressed the handsome face of the young man in green shirt on the painting, and sighed in her heart: She has been smart since she was a child and has almost no memory of anything. Why has it been so long that she still can't remember that young man?
The face of the boy in a shirt? If it weren’t for the eyes that were as clear as water, so dazzling and unforgettable, maybe she wouldn’t even be able to remember them?
The Dharma Hall was something she had thought about for a long time, so of course she wanted to go.
Not only does she want to attend the Dharma Hall meeting, but what she wants to see most is Master Xuan Yu.
With Master Xuan Yu's ability, he will definitely be able to help her figure out who the young man in green is. Even if he can't figure it out, he should still be able to get some more information about him.
Xiaodie has long been accustomed to her habit of appreciating paintings.
She was just a little disappointed and said: "Miss Mu really didn't come!"
Ming Qinxue didn't take her eyes away from the portrait, and nodded: "Well, that's right, she didn't come!"
Xiaodie said: "Didn't the girl say that even if she doesn't go to Baiyun Temple, she would still be interested in Jiyun Academy?"
Ming Qinxue laughed and said firmly: "She must be interested, but it doesn't have to be today, and even if it is today, it doesn't have to be now, right? We go out early!"
Xiaodie smiled and said nothing. It was fun to watch the girl forcefully win over her. It was rare to see such an expression on the girl's face.
If Miss Mu is really planning to come, she won’t even get a reply, right?
Amid Xiaodie's worry, the carriage swayed halfway up the mountain.
Walking inward from the intersection halfway up the mountain, there is a nunnery, where people who go up the mountain often rest. The mountain is large and quiet, and it is a place where the light of the Buddha shines. There are many nunneries built in the mountain, all in places with deep trees and dense forests.
There is a unique tranquility, this is also a scene of Baiyuan Mountain.
In addition to nunneries, some people also build villas or family temples in the middle of the mountain, hidden among the shade of green trees, which is very comfortable to escape the heat in summer.
Xiaodie said: "Girl, do you want to take a rest?"
"No need, just go up the mountain!"
Baiyun Temple is built at two-thirds of the second peak. It is built against the mountain, shaded by trees, and filled with Sanskrit sounds. Walking in front of the mountain gate gives people a sense of tranquility that purifies the ordinary mind.
There is a special parking place for carriages outside the mountain gate, and everyone can only enter the temple on foot.
As a national temple, Baiyun Temple has been around for longer than the founding of the Eastern Xia Dynasty. The accumulation of accumulated heritage makes this centuries-old temple seem to be filled with holy light.
Master Xuan Yu’s personal lectures are even more anticipated by many people.
At this time, the meeting in the Dharma Hall had not yet begun, and the monk Zhike introduced Ming Qinxue in, and first went to the Main Hall to pay homage to the Buddha.
Xiaodie knelt down and worshiped devoutly. When she turned her head, she saw Ming Qinxue opening and closing her lips and making a wish in a low voice. She couldn't help but smile. The girl must be praying to meet the young man in green shirt again soon!
Mu Qingyu has no interest in the Dharma Hall meeting, and she doesn’t want to come.
It's not that she doesn't like to seek peace of mind and experience tranquility in Buddhism, but that she is a person with secrets. Since Master Xuan Yu is known as an expert, if he discovers his secret, that's not the case.
Looking for trouble?
But she still came.
She came earlier than Ming Qinxue.
Moreover, she did not get on the carriage by carriage. The carriage only reached the foot of the mountain, and she walked up the mountain.
Nowadays, Yiyun Tower is no longer empty and about to close. After Mu Qingyu’s rectification, Yiyun Tower relies on a series of novel and delicious dishes, uniform waiters’ uniforms, and smiling service to make Yiyun Tower famous.
The building returns to its glory days when Pei Yi managed it.
Yiyunlou used to rank among the top ten restaurants in the capital, but now its ranking is on the rise.
Mu Qingyu does not feel complacent because of this, she is still improving.
She heard from Mrs. Yu that there was a nunnery in Baiyuan Mountain that made delicious vegetarian food. She came here to learn from the scriptures. There were all kinds of guests in the restaurant, and not all the guests ate meat dishes. Her recipe could make delicious food.
But I heard that other dishes are also delicious, so I can’t help but have some ideas for discussion or exploration.
As for why it is today, it is because she only heard about it yesterday. Normally, if someone like Madam Yu could make a vegetarian meal that would be appreciated by a noble lady like Madam Yu, the nunnery would be lively and famous. However, according to Madam Yu, who can
The chef of Zhi Su Zhai only cooks occasionally when he is in a good mood, and it is rare to eat once in a while. Many people have come here because of its reputation, but in the end they have been empty-handed. The number of times has made this nunnery annoying.
If you don’t know how to praise, you won’t go there anymore.
Mu Qingyu thinks there is nothing wrong with this. The nunnery is full of people who are practicing Qing Dynasty. If everyone comes here because of vegetarianism, then where can it be a place for Qing cultivating?
At this time, she was standing in front of the bamboo fence of this nunnery called Dixinan.
Walking horizontally from the main road halfway up the mountain, there is only a very narrow path that can be passed. Walk up another half a mile and you will see a pond. The water in the pond is as clear as water. The source of the pond is a small stream. Along the stream
When you go up, you can see a piece of flat land, about the size of two courtyards, where this simple nunnery is built.
The nunnery is surrounded by a bamboo fence and there is a patch of vegetables planted on the right side. The green vegetables give off a bit of smoke and smoke in the green mountains.
There is no bamboo fence on the left, which is the stream at the source of the pond. The stream is full of flowers, with various varieties, very smoky and beautiful! The stones in the stream are washed smooth and clean, and the clear water seems to be able to
Calm the mind.
This place is too remote with very few people, but it is a good place for Qingxiu.
Mu Qingyu walked up the steps. The light moss on the steps was growing happily. She stood in front of the courtyard door. Just as she was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, the door of the nunnery opened. A young nun came out and took a look outside the door.
Holding the gift in hand, he said in surprise: "Donor, are you really here? Come in quickly!"
Mu Qingyu was also surprised. She came without an appointment. She even got the news the day before yesterday that her departure today was impromptu. Why did this young nun seem to know that she was coming?
She said: "Little Master, are you here to open the door for me?"
The nun pursed her lips and smiled, saluted and said: "The donor looks younger than the poor nun, so don't call me the poor nun's wife. The poor nun is Huiqing." She added: "It was the abbot and the master who said that today there will be
When your distinguished guest arrives, ask the poor nun to come and greet you!"
Mu Qingyu also clasped her hands together and said, "Excuse me, Master Huiqing, what is the name of the abbot?"
Huiqing said: "The abbot's name is Jingqing!" She blinked her big eyes and said, "Are you here to pay a visit to the abbot?" She was sixteen or seventeen years old, and her eyebrows did not have the solemnity and calmness of a nun, but she looked like a young girl.
So cute.
Mu Qingyu smiled and said: "I just heard from my friends that the vegetarian food here is delicious, so I came to try my luck!"
Huiqing immediately laughed and said: "So you came here to eat vegetarian food. That's no coincidence. Senior sister Huizhu has been in a bad mood in the past few years, so she probably won't be able to do vegetarian food anymore."
"Then why has Master Huizhu been in a bad mood for several years?"
"Because Sister Huizhu has always wanted to ask the abbot to shave her, but the abbot has never agreed!"
"As the abbot, why didn't Master agree?"
This question stumped Hui Qing. She thought for a while before saying, "I don't know! Master didn't tell me. But you definitely won't be able to eat vegetarian food!"
Mu Qingyu said: "It doesn't matter, since we are here it is fate!"
Huiqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Then will you see the abbot, Master?"
Mu Qingyu: "Can I not see you?"
Huiqing was stunned by this answer. She blinked her clean and innocent eyes and said, "Didn't you say that since you are here, it is fate? The abbot master knows that you are coming, so it is fate. Since there is fate, why don't you want to see me?
”
Mu Qingyu: "..."
She was confused.
She looked at Huiqing again, her eyes were still so clean and simple, and she was still really confused.
She laughed and said: "Maybe it's because my goal is not to meet the abbot's wife, so I don't want to meet her!"
Huiqing agreed with this explanation and said: "Do you want to see the flowers? There are many flowers planted in our nunnery, they are very beautiful!"
Looking at her expectant eyes, Mu Qingyu said: "Okay!"
Huiqing said happily: "Then come in quickly!" After saying that, he opened the courtyard door and watched Mu Qingyu walk in. He quickly closed it as if he was afraid that she would run away, and even circled it with vines several times.
Mu Qingyu: "..."
If it weren't for the cheerful and clean eyes of this young master, she would almost suspect that he was trying to trick her into the door.
Huiqing stretched out her hand to hold Mu Qingyu, and bowed awkwardly with her other hand, saying: "Amitabha, donor, the flowers here are really beautiful. Look, I planted them! I planted them too!"
The little girl has a clear voice and looks like she is begging for praise.
Mu Qingyu looked at the cheerful and beautiful flowers, and was about to nod when a calm voice said: "Huiqing, who are you talking to?"
While they were talking, a middle-aged nun walked out of the door.
The two people standing in the courtyard looked over. Huiqing quickly stopped laughing, stood up straight, raised her right hand and saluted: "Master!"
When Mu Qingyu turned her head, the middle-aged nun was also looking at her. She nodded slightly and said, "Master!"
The middle-aged nun's eyes were clear and she said: "In the past few years, Dixin Nunnery has seen very few outsiders come to it. Children have a clear mind, so don't blame the donor!"
Mu Qingyu looked at her: "Are you the abbot master?"
The middle-aged female nun smiled and shook her head: "The poor nun is meditating!"
"Master Jingsi, I came uninvited and I'm so intrusive!"
Jing Si calmly said: "It doesn't matter, time is wasted in the mountains. I don't know what year it is today, but it is fate that the donor can come!"
Mu Qingyu chatted with Master Jingsi for a while, and roughly learned that there were three female nuns of Master Jing's generation in this nunnery. The only ones of Huiqing's generation were Huiqing and the unhappy Huizhu.
.
The staff in the nunnery is simple, and most of the people in the nunnery grow and eat their own food. Apart from morning and evening classes, there is nothing else to do. Therefore, they grow vegetables and flowers, and their lives are peaceful and quiet.
In the early years, Dixinan was not as inaccessible as it is now, and there were almost no roads. Some noble ladies would come to escape the summer heat or worship Buddha. It was at that time that word spread about Huizhu’s delicious vegetarian dishes.
However, later Huizhu stopped working and began to meditate. The people who came to eat vegetarian food stopped coming, and even the incense was gone. They only went to the mountain once a month to buy daily necessities, and the path slowly became quieter.
It is covered with vegetation.
Mu Qingyu understands that for a person who is practicing Qing Dynasty, it is not a good thing to make vegetarian food that is delicious or even famous, because it means that he cannot practice Qing Qing.
But since she is here, she still wants to meet Huizhu, or maybe exchange her cooking experience.
Master Jingsi asked Huiqing to continue to accompany Mu Qingyu to look at the flowers, while she went to the stream to fetch water.
Mu Qingyu stood by the stream, with a gust of wind blowing and the fragrance of flowers. This kind of unconventional day is indeed very refreshing.
"Zheng..."
A clear voice came.
Huiqing, who was originally bending down to serve the flowers, straightened up now.
She looked at Mu Qingyu, stretched out a green-white finger, raised it to her lips, and let out a soft shush.
Mu Qingyu didn't plan to speak at first, but she couldn't help but laugh when she looked at her.
At this time, the sound of the piano began to play. The elegant music lingered among the trees, flowers and grass. It was clear and soft. However, the sound of the piano became lower and lower. The original sound of the piano sounded like weeping, complaining, and resentment. The more it played, the sadder it became, just like the love between lovers.
The whispers are like the farewell of life and death between relatives!
Huiqing burst into tears. After the song ended, it took her a while to come back to her senses and said sadly: "It sounds so good, but I just want to cry when I listen to it!"
Mu Qingyu asked: "Which master is playing the piano?"
"It's me, Senior Sister Huizhu!"
Huiqing continued to lower her head to serve the flowers and said: "Senior sister is in a bad mood, so she likes to play the piano. It sounds very good, but it makes people cry when listening to it." She held up a bouquet of flowers in her hand and said, "We give it to senior sister Huizhu.
Can you bring some flowers? Maybe senior sister will be happy when she sees the flowers, and maybe she will even be willing to cook vegetarian food for you!"
Mu Qingyu: "..."
This kid!
Although Mu Qingyu came here for the vegetarian food, she actually had no intention of forcing it. After hearing such music, she didn't even want to think about it. Not only did the beautiful girl arrive, but Hui Qing actually helped her remember it.
Mu Qingyu smiled and said: "Okay!"
Not a vegetarian, but she wanted to meet someone who could play such a piano sound!
