"Yes, here, this thing records where she is now." As he said this, he saw an envelope floating in the wind from the other side. Du Jun tried to catch it but missed it, and the envelope fell into the air.
On the open space. He immediately ran over and took the envelope in his hand.
"Haha, you are so funny. It's a pity that I don't have time to play with you. Remember, you will know where she is when you open the envelope. Don't let others know." After saying that, she quietly disappeared in the dark night.
Du Jun originally wanted to say thank you, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye. He could only say to the black sky: "Thank you!" There was only his echo in the sky, and there was no reply from anyone.
Du Jun couldn't wait to open the envelope and saw an address written on a piece of letter paper, and a map was also drawn on it. It seemed that he was quite well prepared. Looking at the map, Du Jun smiled happily. Now
We finally know her whereabouts. Should we tell the emperor first?
After thinking about it for a long time, Du Jun decided to go there in person first. If the real person was there, he told the emperor that he had taken him to fight against the enemy last time.
If you have doubts about the efficiency of your work, you should take a look first before talking.
Thinking of this, he quickly ran to an inn, asked for a room, opened the map, put it under the oil lamp and looked at it carefully. The map marked on it was very detailed. It seemed that Xia Ziying was
In a large mountain outside Kyoto, there is a nunnery called Joshin-an located in the heart of the mountain.
After seeing this place, Du Jun put away the map and murmured: "Jingxin nunnery, Jingxin nunnery, is in such a hidden place, who brought them to such a remote place?"
, it’s really puzzling.
He gently lay down on the bed, glanced at the map in his hand, and then hid the map in his clothes, and then fell asleep peacefully. The next day, before dawn, Du Jun had already gotten up.
After finding the shopkeeper and paying the rent, I bought a group of fast horses from him, brought some dry food, and set off in a hurry.
There were very few people on the road in the morning, and the faint smell of green grass floated on the tip of his nose. It smelled so sweet, but he was in no mood to taste it. He just wanted to find the girl Xia he dreamed of quickly.
Horseshoe Mountain echoed loudly in the mountains. After running for two hours, he had reached the foot of the mountain. Looking at the path in the mountains, Du Jun completely collapsed. He didn't know what to do with this winding road.
After walking for a long time, Jingxin Temple was still in the heart of the mountain. How could he reach it? To achieve his goal, Du Jun led the horse and slowly walked up the mountain path step by step.
At noon, he arrived at the entrance of the nunnery and saw three words engraved in gold on a dilapidated plaque: Jingxin nunnery. When he saw these three words, he became excited. Finally, it was
Found the place.
He immediately tied the horse outside the door and walked in gently. As soon as he entered, he met a little nun who was cleaning the yard, so he walked over and said, "I'm Du Jun, I've met Master Tai."
The little nun Xuan Jing was stunned for a moment. No one in this Jingxin Temple had ever called her Master Tai. It was the first time she heard someone call her that. She suddenly felt that her identity was different. Jingli was not the same as her master.
The same status.
"The donor has been polite. Should I return my wish or pay homage to the Buddha?" Xuan Jing asked. Seeing the polite young man in front of her, her favorable impression doubled.
"I'm from Kyoto. I'm not here to fulfill my vows or pay homage to the Buddha. To be honest, I'm here to find someone." Du Jun bowed as he spoke.
"Looking for someone, who should the donor look for? There have always been only monks like us in Jingxin Temple." Xuan Jing said without hesitation.
Du Jun looked indifferent and continued: "I'm looking for a girl. Her surname is Xia. There is a maid named Ling'er with her. Have you seen her before?"
When Xuan Jing heard this, her expression suddenly changed. The master had once told her that she must not mention the affairs of the two people inside to outsiders. If anyone came to ask, just come and tell her. Xuan Jing did not dare to say too much, so she just said it casually.
He said perfunctorily, "Donor, this poor nun has never heard of these two people. If you want to pay homage to the Buddha, please come into the hall. This poor nun still has things to do, so I won't accompany you." After saying that, he left quickly and moved toward
Went to the Zen room behind the main hall.
Xuan Jing came to the master's room and told her that someone came to see the two people who lived on the mountain and asked the master what to do.
The teacher's wife did not show a frightened expression, but looked as calm as water. She just said, "I know, you go about your business!" After hearing this, Xuan Jing left and went about her own business.
.
After Master Tai got up, he came to the main hall, sat quietly on one side and started chanting sutras with his eyes closed. Du Jun was helpless, and was told that he had never seen Miss Xia. He looked around in the yard and then headed towards the main hall.
I walked away but couldn't find anyone. Since I entered the temple gate, I wanted to pay homage to the Buddha.
After Du Jun entered the main hall, he knelt down and bowed three times to the Buddha in front of him, praying: "May the Buddha bless me to find Miss Xia."
The teacher who was reciting sutras suddenly stopped and said: "When fate comes, you can only hope to meet it. If you don't have fate, you will not have fate if you ask for it."
Du Jun was a scholar. When he heard such Zen words, he understood the meaning in her words. He looked at Master Tai on the side and said: "Master Tai, fate is often just a thought, and it depends on whether the Buddha will cross it or not."
"Haha, young master, you have a good idea. It is fate that the Buddha is in your heart. In this case, just come with me." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the back hall.
When Du Jun saw this, he was overjoyed. Sure enough, he was right. It seemed that the master had already known that he was here to find someone. He followed her to the back hall and passed through a long corridor. There were many people along the way.
The green trees and red flowers made for a beautiful scenery. Du Jun was a little obsessed when he saw it. What kind of nunnery was this? It was so charming.
After passing through the corridor, they came to a courtyard with dozens of wing rooms. The wing rooms were exquisitely built and looked antique. Du Jun was surprised when he saw it. He really didn't expect that this temple had so many.
The wing room is for people to live in. Its strength should not be underestimated. I really don’t know how it was built.
When they arrived at the wing, they heard someone making a noise in the yard in front of them. The sweet sound was something they were all too familiar with. Yes, it was them.
The teacher glanced at him and saw his happy expression, and she felt relieved. Finally, the person who was waiting to pick them up was here.
Du Jun heard their voices and walked over quickly. When he came to the yard, he saw it. It turned out that Ling'er got a puppy from nowhere and was playing with the puppy with Xia Ziying.
A lively and innocent look.
Seeing the two of them like this, Du Jun felt a little embarrassed. He smiled sheepishly at the teacher's wife, then walked over gently and called, "Miss Xia."
Xia Ziying and Ling'er turned around at the same time, and what they saw was Du Jun. They couldn't help but feel happy. They ran over quickly and grabbed Du Jun, "Master Du, why are you here? You're really
Let us worry!"
The master's wife on one side was a little embarrassed, "Ahem, cough..." The three people then noticed the master's wife on the other side. Xia Ziying was a little shy and let go of Du Jun's hand. The master's wife said awkwardly: "Several donors slowly
Let’s chat, the poor nun will take his leave first.”
"Well, Master, please go slowly." Du Jun and Xia Ziying said at the same time.
Seeing that the master had left, Ling'er immediately grabbed Du Jun's hand and asked: "Is it the prince, bah bah... It should be the emperor who asked you to take us back now?"
Xia Ziying also looked sideways at Du Jun, waiting for his answer. Du Jun nodded, and then said happily: "Since the emperor didn't see you that day, he didn't think about food all day long. Later, he was busy with the matter of enthroning and had no leisure time.
Time, now that the world has finally decided, allows me to come and look for you two to go back."
After hearing what Du Jun said, Mu Lianlong actually kept thinking about him in his heart for the sake of him, and even asked Du Jun to come all the way here to find him, the longing in his heart became more and more serious.
Ling'er hurriedly pulled Du Jun aside and asked, "Has the Emperor ever talked about me?"
Du Jun smiled awkwardly, "Well... I think I've mentioned it before." Du Jun couldn't bear to hurt Ling'er's heart, so he said tactfully, Ling'er was so innocent and cute that he actually took it seriously and heard it.
Du Jun said that the emperor asked about him and he was so moved that he performed the sad scene of farewell and reunion even more emotionally than Xia Ziying.
Xia Ziying stepped forward, looked at Du Jun and asked: "Master Du, are you coming to take us back this time?"
Du Jun smiled bitterly, "I have traveled thousands of miles to find Miss Xia. It would be great if I could bring you back. I am afraid that the mountain road is winding and winding, and you may be aggrieved."
Ling'er stopped crying with gratitude and turned her head, "The emperor sent you here alone? Isn't there a servant sedan?" Ling'er's words made Du Jun embarrassed, and Du Jun then explained how he made inquiries.
After arriving at their whereabouts, Xia Ziying finally understood. It turned out that this person had been helping her and Mu Lianlong, but he never showed up and didn't know what his intention was.
Ling'er's attention was still that Du Junlai was alone and had never brought anyone with him. How could he finish such a long journey? Looking at such a high mountain, her calves could not help but spin.
"If you think the mountain road is difficult, girl, can you please go down the mountain alone first, then report to the emperor, and then bring someone to take the girl back?" Du Jun really had no choice.
Seeing Du Jun in such a difficult situation, Xia Ziying walked over and tore Ling'er's ears, "Ling'er, you are just a maid, but you still pretend to be a young lady for me. What's wrong with the mountain road? You really can't bear to embarrass Mr. Du like this.
Are you going to bring someone here after he goes back?"
