The famous tattoo is gilded on a black background, and at the end, a timeless and small word "yan" is lightly rippling with plum blossom patterns, hot and glowing under the golden heat of noon.
"Second Miss?" Wu Ming raised his head.
"My second young lady has always worshiped Buddha. She heard that the master came from the ancestral court of the Southern Zen Sect, and she was even more attracted to him." Steward Fei Bai bowed his head respectfully and smiled apologetically: "In the Liang Palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all the nobles from Taizhou City will go there.
Attending the banquet. The master has lived in the north of the Yangtze River for a long time, and this is the first time he has arrived. The second lady also wants to introduce the people from the south of the Yangtze River to the master, so as to build a good relationship between the two families. "
In the Liang Palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, would there still be families from Taizhou City?
Wu Ming hesitated for a moment, then clasped his hands and nodded. When the fat and white steward of the Yan family saw Wu Ming nodding in agreement, he was even more delighted. He couldn't help but search for a doubt that had been pressing in his heart for a long time, and Feng Mei began to ask for advice.
Although the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River have a sparse Buddhist lineage and are the foundation of many aristocratic families and cannot tolerate the influence of heretics, even so, there are still more or less believers who worship the Buddha.
The fat and white manager in front of me is one of them.
While the fat white steward was asking Wu Ming for advice on the scriptures, in the huge crowd, a little head was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head silently.
She was already pushing forward very hard, but no matter how hard she squeezed, she couldn't get to the edge of the altar. The front was like a tall and thick wall, and her voice was drowned out as soon as she could speak. Countless people came and went.
Huidi shuttled back and forth in front of her eyes, enveloping her in the huge crowd, turning her into an inconspicuous dot in the gray crowd.
The monk on the altar did not look at her, nor did he turn his head again.
His eyebrows were blurred in the midday heat, and were covered with a shallow, slightly shimmering white halo. But after the fat and white steward left, a girl in red suddenly jumped up and down,
She happily took his hand.
Under the light.
Xie Fanjing saw the corner of his lips raised in a helpless arc, and then laughed softly...
…
"What's this?"
Xiaoqiu caught a glimpse of the black gold embroidery in Wuming's hand, and her eyes widened in confusion: "Yan?"
"This is the famous assassination of the second lady of the Yan family in Taizhou." Wu Ming walked down from the altar and explained to her: "She invited me to a banquet at Qingliang Palace tomorrow, and people from Taizhou's family will also come."
"Second Miss of the Yan family?" Xiaoqiu was still jumping up and down, but her eyebrows were silent.
"Hey!" She suddenly looked at Wu Ming blankly, showing two small tiger teeth: "That second lady, is she beautiful?"
"I have no idea."
"have no idea?"
"I have never seen her before, and I really don't know her." Wu Ming stopped and said honestly: "Besides, the skin is not as good as the appearance, and she is a red and pink skull. In fact, the second lady is more beautiful than me.
, there is no big difference.”
Xiao Qiu continued to look at Wu Ming, making him panic for no reason. After a long time, she proudly withdrew her gaze and continued to wave her little hand behind her back.
"Silly bald man!"
She suddenly laughed, Wu Ming was stunned, and then she also laughed...
Far away.
Xie Fanjing lowered her head. She had already squeezed to the edge of the altar, but suddenly stopped. She felt that her heart was suddenly in chaos. Deep in her heart, the little hedgehog began to jump up again, fiercely,
Full of bristles.
It was as if he didn't recognize himself, and he didn't even look over...
Xie Fanjing wanted to ask him if he still remembered him and were they still friends?
But when he saw the girl in red and saw her smiling at each other, he shrank for no reason.
I am such a coward.
It was before and it is still...
His mind was in chaos, and his heart was in chaos. In the huge crowd, Xie Fanjing lowered his head and stared blankly at his toes, being shaken by the pedestrians coming and going.
She didn't know why she was sad. She had only met him a few times and they were not really good friends. But she was really sad now. A sour taste filled her nose, and her eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of water vapor.
puff!
While he was thinking wildly, a strong gust of wind suddenly came to his ears. The sudden huge force hit him, and Xie Fanjing, who was caught off guard, tilted his shoulders and was knocked to the ground.
She was stunned, then silently got up from the ground and prepared to leave.
At this moment, a shout of surprise made her stop.
"Wait!" the young man who knocked her down shouted in surprise: "Xiao Xie Fairy? Are you Xiao Xie Fairy?"
"Ah..." Xie Fanjing rubbed his red eyes and looked over.
"Sure enough, it's Fairy Xie!" After seeing her face clearly, the young man laughed: "My sister kept talking about you the last time we said goodbye. I didn't expect to meet you in Taizhou City today."
"elder sister?"
"Over there!" The young man pointed.
At his fingertips, on a street corner in a busy city, a beauty with a veil on her face smiled and waved vigorously.
"Yeah!" Xie Fanjing jumped up: "It's you!"
…
…
…
In the city, in the alleys paved with bluestones.
Xiaoqiu was as cheerful as a happy cat, chirping, and Wuming silently followed her, nodding in agreement from time to time.
We haven't seen each other for two years, but she still looks familiar, the same little girl who likes to jump up and down on the rockery and get herself covered in dust for no reason.
Two years have passed, and everything seems to have changed, and yet it seems like nothing has changed...
"Not long after you left, my mother sold Qi Jinting and married a wealthy businessman in Taizhou." Xiaoqiu opened her beautiful eyes: "I have been waiting for you, but I didn't expect you to come too.
In Jiangnan, they even opened a forum to lecture in Taizhou!"
"I didn't expect it either..." Wu Ming nodded silently. He didn't expect that Qi Jinting would be sold, nor did he expect that Xiaoqiu would come from far away from Jiangbei to Jiangnan.
He was inexplicably confused, but he couldn't seem to explain why. When he was at the altar, he seemed to hear sounds, but when he turned around, there was nothing...
Suddenly, when he couldn't help but fall into wild thoughts, the bouncing footsteps in front of him stopped abruptly.
Wu Ming raised his head in surprise and stopped.
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I always thought you were just a stupid monk." Xiao Qiu gently kicked the gravel under her feet: "You seem to have changed a lot in the past two years."
"I..." Wuming was stunned, not thinking about how to respond for a while, but Xiaoqiu looked at his dumbfounded look and burst into laughter.
"Hey! I'm sixteen this year." After a long silence, in the darkness of the alley, a voice as thin as a mosquito whispered from the girl's lips and teeth:
"Auntie said.
I can get married..."
Wu Ming's heart beat so hard that it trembled like a drum.
He turned his head and looked at the naughty Xiaoqiu, with a jade-like side face, broken black hair curled up around the ears, and the exposed skin on his neck, which was as warm and charming as ivory.
That wildcat-like girl has grown up...
She gained the graceful appearance of a woman, and like a young woman, she began to apply rouge to her eyebrows. The cold incense like plum blossoms came gently from her sleeves, bringing with it a light, winter-like chill.
aroma……
"The day after tomorrow..." It was like a stick of incense and it seemed like it was just a moment. In the cold fragrance, he was hugged gently.
No time to be surprised, Xiaoqiu turned around and ran away, her laughter sounding like a silver bell from far away:
"Remember to come here to find me!"
…
The light is brilliant.
In the shady alleys covered with moss and vines, Wuming Complex watched the man in red running away quickly, with a look of struggle flashing in his eyes.
He returned to the guest room where he was staying and closed the door, which seemed to separate two worlds.
Two years ago…
Wu Ming, who was sitting on the chair, shook his head vigorously and frowned tightly.
Two years ago, he was hunted down by Ye Yuran and Dou Fang, both from the wealthy family of Beiwei. It was obviously an inevitable death, but in his mind, there was no memory of that period...
He woke up in a panic on a small barren mountain. There were scattered wine jars everywhere, full and rolling all over the floor, reflecting the bright moon in the sky like water.
Amid the pain of a splitting headache, Ye Yuran and Dou Fang had long since disappeared. In shock, Wu Ming also found in panic that he had been injured by his soul and had actually fallen from the Vajra Realm and dropped the Yang Fu.
After walking out of the barren mountain and asking the mountain people about the sequence, it goes without saying that I was filled with surprise. At that time, three full days had passed since he was chased by Ye Yuran and Dou Fang...
During those three days, his memory was always blank, as if it had been invisibly erased by a hand, or like another body had taken over his body, suppressing his consciousness to the deepest end.
"Those three days..." He closed his eyes, thinking of Xiaoqiu's words just now, and of the vague gaze when he thought of the Dharma altar, and he was confused for a moment: "What on earth happened?"
But within a moment, the messenger jade pendant around his waist suddenly flashed, awakening the confused Wu Ming.
His expression became serious, he stood up quickly and bowed solemnly:
"teacher."
"What I want you to do..." Yu Guili and Guang Hui's voice came from afar: "How is the progress?"
