Xia Ze slowly followed Xu Xiuzhu and called Brother Xu.
Xu Xiuzhu turned his head, hid the distress on his face, and smiled warmly: "It's you, don't worry, walk a hundred steps, and when you reach Taoxi Temple, you can settle down and rest for a while. The Taoxi Temple's vegetarian meal,
But I must eat more later."
Xia Ze smiled and nodded.
There was a different emotion in Xu Xiuzhu's eyes, as if he was saying, don't you have questions to ask me, then ask them quickly.
But Xia Ze didn't ask, and Xu Xiuzhu's suppressed sadness almost burst out.
But Xia Ze finally asked: "Does Brother Xu like Miss Yan?"
Xu Xiuzhu nodded without hesitation: "I like it very much! I like it very much!"
But soon his face became dejected again, and he sighed: "But what if I like you? I'm just a martial artist in the four realms who can't achieve high or low, how can I be worthy of Ying Luo..."
Xia Ze paused: "Brother Xu, if, I mean if, if Sister Yan doesn't care about the disparity in status between the two of you, she still wants to be with you even if she lives a poor life, and even wants to elope with you.
Woolen cloth?"
A glimmer of light shone in Xu Xiuzhu's eyes, but he quickly said to Xia Ze with a straight face: "Brother, I don't want to say this. What good man in the world doesn't want his beloved woman to live a happy life, even if Ying Luo is willing?
She can think so if she wants to elope with me, but I can't, at least I shouldn't..."
"I, Xu Xiuzhu, am a shameless man. I like Yingluo. If I really want to be good for her, I will marry her in a beautiful sedan chair. If I just take her away like this, what will happen to the world?"
How do I view her? If that's the case, I would rather Yingluo marry a rich family. I just look at her from a distance, and that's fine..."
Xia Ze looked at Xu Xiuzhu, who was secretly feeling sad, and remained silent.
Xu Xiuzhu's words make it difficult for people to find fault, and they seem to be talking about something. But shouldn't all affectionate people be like this? Don't they all want to give all the good things to their sweethearts? That's why many people in the world follow secular ethics and ethics.
With such a humble background, I can't help but fall in love.
Xia Ze suddenly remembered a certain woman with crooked eyebrows. Since she left, he often dreamed of her. When climbing over the mountain, he saw the mountains in the distance looked like her eyebrows; when crossing the water, he thought of her jade-like smile; when practicing boxing, he thought about drawing talismans.
I also think about it.
But it was not as painful as Xu Xiuzhu and Yan Yingluo. When he thought of her, he felt very happy in his heart, just as he told the girl at that time that he was very happy to know her.
Xu Xiuzhu was keenly aware of Dao Xia Ze's emotions and asked tentatively: "Brother He Ze has a certain girl in his heart?"
Xia Ze grinned and nodded repeatedly: "That girl is very good. When she saw that I was being bullied, she stood up for me and even saved my life."
Xu Xiuzhu didn't know what this guy was having fun with, so he subconsciously felt that Xia Ze was probably an infatuated person who was trapped by love, so he took him over and said, "Good brother, since you and I are both trapped by love, I sympathize with you. Wait till we get there."
Outside Taoxi Temple, we have to find a chance to have a drink. Drinking brings sorrow, and the more we drink, the more we drink!"
Xia Ze wanted to explain, but Xu Xiuzhu couldn't listen anymore.
It took less than a stick of incense to reach the outside of Taoxi Temple.
The heavy rain has stopped, and the moon is shining brightly in the sky. This Taoxi Temple is a temple deep in the peach forest, and it seems a bit quiet. The gurgling streams around it carry the scattered peach blossoms down the mountain. Under the moonlight, they look like a silver belt.
The strange thing is that in the center of the peach grove, there stands a two-foot-tall willow tree. Thousands of willow branches hang down, like a woman washing her long hair by the river. However, there is not a single peach petal within three feet of the willow tree.
fall.
Outside the temple gate, there are two diamond statues with peeling paint, holding demon-conquering pestles and iron whips, their majesty has not diminished at all.
Sixty-seven teenage novice monks stood outside the temple gate to greet businessmen and customers.
There are businessmen staying here all the year round, and they burn some incense to pray for wealth. Therefore, these two young novices are already familiar with the procedures and rules for receiving guests. They told the abbot that he could not go out to greet guests in person due to physical discomfort, and hoped for your understanding.
Following various merchants, the escort headed to the guest rooms that had been prepared.
When he crossed the threshold, Xia Ze looked at the two Vajra statues up and down, but said nothing and followed the young novice into the arranged guest room. When he entered the temple, the eyes of the two Vajra statues were looking at something invariably.
, and then quickly returned to the original state.
Yan Yingluo's guest room was the best, followed by four bearers, who then shared a room with Xu Xiuzhu in Luyi Lane. Xia Ze and He Xu were taken elsewhere and settled in the deepest part of the alley.
The young novice said in a cold tone: "This almsgiver, it's already very late, the kitchen has been closed for a long time, and there is no fast food provided for the time being. If you are really hungry, you can cook your own meal in the room, but be careful not to set the guest room on fire.
"
Seeing how indifferent he was, He Xu rolled up his sleeves and wanted to teach him a lesson, but was stopped by Xia Ze's look.
"Okay, then don't bother little master, we will pay attention." Xia Ze replied respectfully.
After the little novice monk finished his instructions, he left. Xia Ze and He Xu were in the house, making a small stove with the bricks and stones they picked up, and lighting a fire with dead branches picked from the mountain, intending to cook some porridge.
There was a strange wind blowing in the house, and the firewood flickered on and off. It was difficult to cook a pot of porridge with just these scattered dead branches.
"He Xu, just stay here and don't move. I'll go find more firewood outside the courtyard." Xia Ze stood up.
He Xu's expression changed: "I'll go too."
But Xia Ze asked him to look at the fire obediently, so he had no choice but to nod his head and said with a sad expression: "Then you should come back early."
Xia Ze nodded, then quietly placed a piece of golden talisman behind He Xu and walked out of the house.
In the main hall ten steps away, there is a statue of a boy with a sinister face like Shura. He is holding a thick demon-conquering pestle in his hand, which also looks like a stick for knocking wooden fish. He looks fierce and murderous.
Xia Ze stood in front of the hall, clenched his fists, but soon released them. He walked to the side of the little white donkey, and said with a solemn expression: "Look at He Xu."
The white donkey seemed to be humane and nodded, and then Xia Ze left.
On the demon-conquering pestle, drops of blood fell. Under the statue of a boy, there was an elderly monk with a split brain.
The statue shook its body slightly, and the dust fell.
Outside Taoxi Temple, a stream of green energy flew out of the huge willow tree and rushed into the temple. The two Vajra statues did not even have time to stop it.
He Xu didn't dare to raise his head, and held the corners of his clothes tightly with both hands. In front of him, there was an old man in green clothes, who looked haggard.
