Chengyun gave Gu Xiaonuan a jade pendant, and Su Liang put it on her on the same day. Gu Xiaonuan was not used to it at first and always wanted to pull it off. She was attracted by the toys in the hands of her two brothers and soon took the jade pendant away.
Forgot.
Yan Shiba did not come to Yuanming Pavilion for dinner, so Lonicera brought her to the room and ate with her.
After dinner, Su Liang continued to study how to restore Lin Shan's memory. Because she had the drug in her hand that caused Lin Shan's amnesia, she started with this drug to have a clearer goal.
When Rendong came upstairs, she heard the sounds of three children playing and Qiu Cong's cheerful laughter. She knocked lightly on Su Liang's door, heard Su Liang's voice, and went in.
"Master." Liandong walked to Su Liang before speaking, "Miss Yan asked why the taste of the medicine had changed. After drinking it, she felt weak all over. The subordinate said that he forgot to tell her that the medicine was changed today, and the fatigue was only temporary.
It will help you recover as quickly as possible.”
"Yeah." Su Liang didn't look up, "If she's not asleep when you go back, tell her that I will take the children to Huguo Temple tomorrow and ask her if she can go."
Ling Dong nodded, "Yes." After saying that, he went out. He came back not long after and said that he had told Yan Shiba that she wanted to go out for a walk and that they would go to Huguo Temple together tomorrow.
It was another fruitless night. Before going to bed, Su Liang was thinking about where Gu Ling would be at this time. Calculating the time, he had arrived at Xingluo Island a few days ago. If everything went well, he should have successfully rescued people and was on his way back.
Su Liang looked at the little face of her daughter next to her that looked exactly like Gu Ling. Every time she relaxed in the dead of night, her longing for Gu Ling would surge up like a tide and she would not be able to let go for a long time.
Early the next morning, Su Liang told the children that they were going to Huguo Temple today.
Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu both cheered. They loved playing outside, but because Gu Ling was not at home, Su Liang rarely took them out.
After breakfast, the carriage was ready and everyone in the house was going.
Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu insisted on riding their ponies. They each had a horse, both given by Duanmu Chen. Zheng'er named his horse Zhuifeng, and Ji Xiaoshu named his horse Lightning. The two of them had a horse.
My equestrian skills were taught by Su Liang.
In order to protect the two little guys, Qiu Cong also rode a horse and followed beside them.
Su Liang and Yan Shiba were in a car, and Gu Xiaonuan was in Nangong Qian's car.
Yan Shiba's face looked worse than yesterday. She leaned against the car wall and looked at Su Liang, "The new medicine makes me very uncomfortable. Can I use the original medicine? It's okay without taking the medicine. I feel slow.
It will get better if you slow down."
Su Liang frowned slightly, took Yan Shiba's hand and took her pulse, "The discomfort you feel is only temporary. It takes a while to get used to the new medicine. After a few days, these adverse reactions will disappear. The original medicine is not good for you.
Your body is of no use anymore, and the better you feel is just superficial. Your internal injuries are severe and you have not yet recovered to the point where you can heal yourself without medicine. Listen to me, I am a doctor."
Yan Shiba looked helpless, "Okay, then I'll listen to you, Sister Liang."
Su Liang was stunned for a moment. This was the first time that Yan Shiba called her "Sister Liang" after she met Yan Shiba again.
However, Yan Shiba had closed her eyes and was resting at this time, and Su Liang could not see her expression. As for her tone, it was not similar to before.
Yan Shiba used to like to call Su Liang very much, and sometimes it was like calling Hun'er endlessly, which made Su Liang very annoyed. But every time Yan Shiba called Su Liang, his tone was deliberately high, with a three-point smile.
It was a bit joking and a bit careless. To outsiders, it might seem very intimate and doting, but Su Liang knew that among the many times Yan Shiba called her "Sister Liang", more than half of them did.
There is nothing sincere, I just want to tease her and see her reaction, sometimes I just want to annoy her on purpose.
Su Liang did not mention their original names to the current Yan Shiba. For a while, these three words made Su Liang start to wonder if she was too suspicious. Maybe Yan Shiba was just suffering from severe physical injuries and was mentally weak.
That's why there is no shadow of the arrogance and wantonness that he used to have.
The voices of children outside the window interrupted Su Liang's thoughts. She opened the curtain and heard Ji Xiaoshu sweetly call "Master's wife" and then handed over a candied haws, which he had just bought from the street.
Su Liang smiled and said, "Your master likes to eat this, but I don't like it very much. You can eat it."
"Master is only four years old this year!" Ji Xiaoshu complained to Gu Ling with a smile, bit a candied haws, and then raised it to feed Qiu Cong.
Qiu Cong laughed loudly, "I don't like eating this, it's too sour."
"Master's wife, can my sister eat it?" Ji Xiaoshu asked.
Su Liang shook his head, "Don't give it to her, you can eat it."
But Ji Xiaoshu still sneaked into the carriage and fed Gu Xiaonuan half a hawthorn. He thoughtfully removed the hard candy shell on the outside and only let Gu Xiaonuan eat the hawthorn inside. Gu Xiaonuan was so sour that he vomited as soon as he entered the mouth.
He came out and vomited right into Ji Xiaoshu's face.
Nangong Qian wiped Ji Xiaoshu's face dumbfounded, and Ji Xiaoshu sighed, "It would be great if Master was here. If I don't want to eat, I'll give it to him."
Gu Xiaonuan seemed to understand Ji Xiaoshu's words and raised her hand to pat him.
Ji Xiaoshu coughed lightly, "Sister, I didn't give it to you because I didn't want to eat it. I thought you would like it and I really want you to try it. Don't get me wrong."
The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain. Su Liang heard Zheng'er calling Uncle Nian and opened the curtain to see Nian Jincheng coming over with Yan Yu in his arms.
"If I had known that you would come today, we would have gone to your place first and set off together." Yan Yu was very surprised to see Su Liang. She was pregnant. Nian Jincheng was too nervous and always stared at her. Yan Yu suddenly had an idea today.
Come out for a walk.
Su Liang helped Yan Shiba get out of the carriage and asked her if she could leave by herself.
Yan Shiba's eyes passed over Nian Jincheng and looked at the steps winding up the mountain in front of him, "I'll give it a try. If I don't have the strength, I won't say anything."
"If Miss Yan can't walk, I'll carry her on my back," Liao Dong said.
"Yes." Su Liang handed Yan Shiba to Liao Dong, and she turned around to help Yan Yu.
Yan Yu smiled and took Su Liang's hand, "No need to hold me up, I'm in good health, let's go."
Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu started a childish competition again to see who could reach Huguo Temple first, and the loser jumped down the mountain.
Nian Jincheng asked Gu Xiaonuan to sit on his shoulders and followed Su Liang and Yan Yu. Qiu Cong accompanied Nangong Qian at the end.
When Su Liang arrived at the gate of Huguo Temple, she saw Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu rushing out from behind a big tree, and each of them took her hand.
"Master, please guess who among us wins!" Ji Xiaoshu looked happy. Zheng'er sighed and lowered his head.
"I guess..." Su Liang chuckled, "a tie?"
Zheng'er laughed instantly, and Ji Xiaoshu gave a thumbs up, "Master's wife is so awesome! You can guess all this!" They tried their best to jump down the mountain in order not to lose the game, but in the end no one could win.
"Go find your Uncle Chengyun." After Su Liang finished speaking, Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu rushed into the Huguo Temple.
During the second half of the climb up the mountain, Yan Shiba was carried up by Lonicera, and the two of them arrived last.
Su Liang waited until Yan Shiba arrived before entering the temple together. Yan Yu said that she was going to offer incense and pray for blessings. Su Liang supported Yan Shiba and said that they should go too.
"You suffered a big disaster earlier. Since you are here today, you should also go and burn incense." Su Liang said to Yan Shiba.
Yan Shiba nodded slightly, "Okay."
When Su Liang supported Yan Shiba and finished offering incense with Yan Yu and worshiping the Bodhisattva, he saw Ling Dong running over with several wooden plaques tied with red ropes in his hands, "Master, we have been here so many times.
I’ve never hung a sign on the wishing tree. Let’s hang one this time.”
Every temple Su Liang visited in his previous life had a wishing tree covered with red signs or red ribbons. Huguo Temple has always had one, just across the front hall. Su Liang had been there many times before, always directly
Walking under the tree, I saw other people write down their wishes piously, and then asked the monks from the temple to hang them on the tree. But neither she nor Gu Ling had ever done this.
Su Liang took three pieces, gave one piece to Yan Yu, gave another piece to Yan Shiba, and kept one piece for himself, "Let's go, let's go there and make a wish."
Next to the wishing tree, there is a row of tables with pens, ink, paper and inkstones for pilgrims to write their wishes on the wooden plaques. Those who cannot write can ask a monk to write them for them.
Su Liang walked over and sat down with Yan Shiba. She picked up the pen and carefully wrote the word "peace" on the wooden sign. Then she picked it up and gently blew the ink dry. When she turned around and saw that Yan Shiba had not moved, she
Hand her the pen.
Yan Shiba shook his head slightly, "I don't know what to write, there's nothing to write about."
Su Liang smiled and said, "If you are not in good health now, just write health, or longevity."
Yan Yu had also written her wishing card over there, and Nian Jincheng stood up on tiptoes and hung it on the branch she pointed to. Gu Xiaonuan was at Qiu Cong's place and went to the back mountain to watch the clouds.
"Please help me write, my hands are weak." Yan Shiba handed the pen back.
Su Liang shook his head, "The wishing card must be written by yourself to be effective. You write it slowly and don't be in a hurry. The most important thing is to be sincere."
Su Liang handed her sign to Nian Jincheng and asked him to help hang it on the tree.
When Nian Jincheng saw the word "peace", he nodded and said, "A Ling will definitely come back safely."
Su Liang looked at Yan Shiba again and saw her putting down the wooden sign with a tired look on her face, "To be honest, I don't believe this. I really have nothing to write. Forget it, let's go."
"You're here, let me write one for you." Su Liang said, taking Yan Shiba's wooden sign, carefully wrote the word "health" on it, and asked Nian Jincheng to hang it on the tree. Then
She supported Yan Shiba and walked toward the back mountain together.
Everything looks natural, nothing out of the ordinary.
But in fact, today's visit to Huguo Temple, and the fact that Lonicera gave them a wishing card to write on were all planned by Su Liang last night. There was only one reason: she wanted to see Yan Shiba's handwriting.
The memory is gone, but the muscle memory will not disappear so easily. In fact, Su Liang prepared some books and the Four Treasures of the Study for Yan Shiba before, saying that letting her read and write when she was bored would help restore her memory. But Yan Shiba
The rice paper in the room is always blank.
Then last night, Su Liang thought of the wishing tree in Huguo Temple, and that's what happened today.
Su Liang knew very well Yan Shiba's physical condition, how strong she was, and whether she could write.
When Yan Shiba repeatedly refused to write on the wishing card, Su Liang really began to suspect that this person was not Yan Shiba at all... Because if it was the real Yan Shiba, who had really lost his amnesia, he did not refuse to write two words.
The reason for the word.
The real Yan Shiba would not believe in the wishing tree, but with her temperament, when Su Liang handed over the wishing card, she broke it in half and threw it away to play with, instead of holding it in her hand for so long. In the end
That's why she said she didn't believe it. Besides, if she didn't believe it, why didn't Su Liang refuse when he asked her to offer incense?
Su Liang was thinking, maybe she should think carefully about whether the face of the person next to her is real. There is no disguise, which does not mean that the face is exactly the same, it must be Yan Shiba. There was plastic surgery in the past life, and the superb skills can make people plastic surgery.
They must be exactly the same. Su Liang thinks that people in this world can't do it, but what if someone really finds someone who looks exactly like Yan Shiba? What if, she thought it couldn't be done, but actually someone can do it?
After all, there are other time travelers, and Yan Shiba was in the hands of that group of people before he came here.
Or maybe Yan Shiba was brainwashed by hypnosis after losing his memory... Su Liang thought of another possibility.
In short, Su Liang planned to think carefully about how to further confirm what this "Yan Shiba" was about after returning home.
When they arrived at the back mountain, they saw all the children there. Chengyun was also pulled over, as was his uncle Pucheng.
"Donor Su, this is..." Cheng Yun introduced Su Liang.
Pucheng pushed Chengyun away and greeted Su Liang with a smile, "This is the famous Doctor Su, right? I've admired him for a long time."
Su Liang had heard Cheng Yun say long ago that his uncle was not an ordinary monk. Ordinary monks would not travel outside all year round.
Pucheng's bald head could not hide his outstanding facial features and temperament. He was tall and lean, and he wore a monk's robe elegantly. Remembering that Chengyun said yesterday that Pucheng became a monk halfway, Su Liang was curious about his identity before becoming a monk.
.
"Master Pucheng, we finally meet. Chengyun often mentions you." Su Liang smiled.
Pucheng is a very charming person. Both Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu like him very much, and Gu Xiaonuan is willing to let him hold him. Gu Xiaonuan holds on to the Buddhist beads on Pucheng's chest, and Pucheng takes them off and hangs them on Gu's chest.
Small warm neck.
Su Liang wanted to return it to Pucheng, but Pucheng waved his hand and said, "This Buddhist bead has been with me for many years and has traveled to many places. Since it is destined to be a small donor to Gu, I will give it to her. These three children are all closely related to Buddha."
Ah! I want to take your love as my disciple, but I wonder what Su Shi’s idea is?"
Su Liang's head was covered with black lines, and before she could speak, Cheng Yun first expressed her objection, "Uncle Gu, the little donor is a woman, this is inappropriate."
"What's wrong with the woman? I said I wanted to accept a disciple, but I didn't say I wanted her to enter Buddhism. No talent, my martial arts is not bad, and I have some other skills that I can teach my disciples in the future. After so many years, I have just touched
The first child you feel is destined to be with you, what difference does it make if it is a boy or a girl?" Pucheng looked serious.
Su Liang had thought that some master would take a fancy to her daughter and want to take her as his disciple, but she never expected that the first person to take Gu Xiaonuan as his disciple would be a monk.
Chengyun frowned, "In that case, why not let the young monk accept the young benefactor as his disciple. The young monk is also very destined to her, so there will be no confusion in the seniority. Then the master uncle can teach her whatever he wants."
Su Liang coughed lightly, "I appreciate the kindness of both of you. I don't have any objections, but I have no decision-making power on this matter. The child's father is not at home, so he may have objections. I will have to wait until he comes back to determine whether this is OK or not.
.If he agrees then, we will take our daughter to look for her again..."
Pucheng pulled Chengyun behind him, and his smile deepened, "Of course you are looking for me to become your disciple. Xiaoyun, you will be Xiaonuannuan's senior brother by then."
Chengyun: ...he is not, he doesn’t want to, if he had known it, he would have been the first to propose taking Gu Xiaonuan as his disciple.
Su Liang said there was no problem, but it didn't matter what she said, and we would discuss everything after Gu Ling came back.
After eating vegetarian food at Huguo Temple, the group went down the mountain and went home.
Yan Shiba fell asleep on the carriage back. Su Liang looked at her quietly and planned to change her medicine again to make her get better as soon as possible and see if she would do anything. At the same time, Su Liang would give her
She has a poison that can be induced at any time without any warning before the attack, just in case.
Yan Shiba found that the taste of the medicine had changed again. According to Su Liang's explanation, it was because she said she felt uncomfortable after drinking it. Su Liang thought of a new and improved medicine today. It has the same effect but does not cause any effects on the body.
Discomfort.
…
Huguo Temple.
In the evening, Chengyun came to see Pucheng. He had just returned from playing chess with Master Puhui.
"Let's go to Su Mansion to see Xiao Nuannuan tomorrow." Pucheng said with a smile.
Chengyun couldn't help but ask the question that had always been in his mind, "Why does Master Master want to become a monk?"
Pucheng chuckled, "Who decided that a monk must be like you?"
Chengyun shook his head, "That's not what I meant. I just think that a casual person like my uncle, who likes freedom, doesn't need to become a monk."
Pucheng looked a little confused, "I once had a family, but then it disappeared, and I am left alone. Whether I can become a monk or not, I have to become a monk."
Chengyun frowned and did not continue the topic.
Pucheng said seriously, "Xiaoyun, I brought you to Ping'an Temple. Aren't you curious about your life experience? You are still young. If you want to return to secular life..."
Chengyun shook his head, "No, I have never thought about returning to secular life."
Pucheng stretched out his hand and rubbed Chengyun's bald head, "As you wish."
Only then did Chengyun remember the purpose of coming to Pucheng, "Uncle Master, we have already visited Master Puhui, when will we return to Ping'an Temple?"
Pucheng shook his head, "What's the hurry? There's nothing to do when I go back. It's rare for me to come to the capital, so I'll stay for a while. At least wait until Xiao Nuannuan's father comes back and let her worship me as her teacher."
Chengyun shook his head slightly, "Uncle Master, I think Donor Gu might not agree. Gu Xiaoshi mainly studies martial arts, and Donor Gu can teach her. Donor Gu's martial arts are very strong."
Pucheng smiled and said, "You are not Gu Ling, how do you know?"
Chengyun walked away silently.
Late at night, Pucheng had just turned on the light, and the window automatically closed without wind. He quickly closed it again, and a dark shadow appeared in the room.
Pucheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he heard someone calling, "Father." The voice was low, but very young.
Pucheng was stunned, and after a long silence, he spoke in a very soft voice, "Ayue, why are you here?"
