His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only stayed in Prince Wushou's Mansion for a while and left without even having dinner.
"Leaving so soon?"
As soon as the prince stepped out of the palace, the woman covered in black veil appeared in the garden pavilion again and found another chair to sit on.
"If you make a sound, he might stay for a late dinner." King Wuyou said while selecting the fruits in the fruit basket sent by his elder brother.
"What did he say to you."
"It's nothing, it just means that there seems to be something wrong with my father's body. Even the imperial doctor can't figure out the situation, but fortunately, his life is not worried."
"Is he going to be impatient too?"
"I heard that the old man, Young Master Saint, came out of the mountain." King Wuyou did not continue to discuss this topic with him and said instead.
"I'm just out for a sightseeing trip," the woman said calmly.
"How do you know?"
"Guess."
"Then he just went out to enjoy the mountains and rivers. Why don't we go out to have some fun too? Maybe we can bump into him. I still have many questions to ask him, and I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity in the future."
"Let's wait until the weather gets cooler."
Rokusu Mountain.
At first, Yan Yu was quite bored by himself. After teasing the chubby rabbit in the small yard for two days, he decisively abandoned it and slipped away further away.
The place that Yan Yu went to the most was Hongque'an, because it was the closest place. The nuns in Hongque'an also knew about such a little girl who came here often. They knew that she and a companion lived in a nunnery in Liusu Mountain for a period of time.
You nuns are not surprised by such a thing, but only a few of them have seen her companions.
There were some novice nuns in the nunnery who were almost the same age as Yan Yu. We met many times and became playmates.
These novices were picked up by masters who were traveling in Liusu Mountain. They were all orphans who had been abandoned for various reasons.
On this day, several friends went out to play happily at the urging of their elders. There was no shortage of places to play in the mountains, and simple flowers, grass and trees could become a source of happiness for them.
The mountains and forests are a paradise. Not only are there fun things to do, but they can also protect them. The ferocious animals in the mountains will not take the initiative to harm the people here under the intimidation of those great monks, unless people attack first, just like the last time Yan Yu hugged someone by mistake.
A small tabby cat.
"Sister Yan, Sister Yan, this time we must defeat Jiehong and the others. Last time they painted a big painted face and our uncles laughed to death." A young novice said with a look of resentment.
"Don't worry, I'm a master at this thing. They will definitely be convinced of their defeat with me." Yan Yu looked like a big sister and followed the little novices, walking majestically towards somewhere in the mountains.
Somewhere behind the mountain peak where Hongque Temple is located, on the edge of the dense forest full of clouds and mist, a river passed through here and formed five small lakes in terraced fields near it. The monks here called them Wuming Lakes.
.
"Wow, so beautiful." Yan Yu was now looking at the scenery here by the lake. The lake water was so clear that it could be ignored. Sunlight could penetrate directly and shine on the bottom of the lake. The sand, gravel and water plants on the bottom of the lake were clearly visible, and the fish inside were like
Wandering in the sky is so magical.
"Sister Yan, you are beautiful."
"Yeah, yeah." Yan Yu nodded vigorously.
A young novice said in a low voice: "Sister Yan, let me tell you, like this summer, we often come here to take a bath with our junior uncles. Very few people come here. Do you want me to call you next time?"
"
"Okay, okay." Yan Yu happily accepted. She also wanted to take a bath in this crystal clear lake to see what it felt like.
"Huiling, are you here so soon?"
Not long after Yan Yu and his party arrived, a small group of young monks walked out from another part of the forest, their bare little heads shining brightly in the sunlight.
"Who is this benefactor?"
The young monks looked at one of the strangers among the young novices and asked.
"This is Sister Yan, our helper." With Yan Yu's assurance, these young novices became more confident and said without any fear.
"Amitabha, I have met the donor." A group of young bald heads saluted the donor, who was one or two years older than them.
Yan Yu also returned the courtesy to them: "Amitabha, I have met a few young masters."
"Hui Lin, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate," said a young monk. After all, they arranged the fight themselves, so how could an outsider intervene?
"Why is it inappropriate? I didn't say that I couldn't have helpers at the beginning. Besides, sister Yan is only two years older than us, so she didn't ask an elder to help." A young novice said plausibly. She didn't say any rules at the beginning. As long as she
If you don't ask adults for help, it doesn't count as bullying them.
"But..."
The young monk wanted to refute, but was interrupted again.
"Why, you're afraid because we haven't competed, or you're just bullying us. If you're afraid, how about surrendering? If you surrender, you'll lose half the money." Little Shamini suggested.
A young monk whispered in Jihong's ear: "This donor has a pretty face. If they lose, we can draw on it, and then we can pinch her face."
Several young monks have impure motives.
Jiehong thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then said to them: "Who is afraid of whom, so what if you invite help? It's not certain who will win, but we have agreed that if you lose, you will be punished.
She will suffer too."
"That's natural." Yan Yu replied with a smile.
That smile made the two weak-willed young monks blush a little, and they immediately recited "Amitabha" in their hearts more than ten times.
"Then let's start." said the little monk.
They could only find things by the lake, so they quickly dispersed.
"Jiehong, I've hidden everything. As long as I take it out in front of them, they won't become suspicious. Don't worry, this time it's even smoother than last time. Even if they find helpers, they can't defeat you.
When the time comes, you will be the first to put pen to paper on that benefactor’s face.”
"Okay." Jiehong nodded, then looked for things as if nothing had happened, and said loudly from time to time. "Wow, this piece is good, um, but it's just a little small."
Then he threw away the stone he picked up, and asked the little novice beside him to pick it up quickly, look at it, and hold it in his hand temporarily.
"Hey, this one is pretty good, but it's still a bit lacking."
Jiehong threw it away again, picking it up and throwing it away. There were two little novices who followed him casually, picking up his abandoned items. The things Jiehong didn't want were better than the ones he chose in their eyes.
On the other side, Yan Yu was minding his own business walking along the lakeside, kicking this and that, but couldn't find the one that suited him.
"Sister Yan, why didn't you choose?" Huijing Samini, who was searching with her, asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely find it if I circle around the lake." Yan Yu said comfortingly.
She was 100% sure about this competition, but it was just a fool's errand. She had played before. When she first went to Black Tiger Mountain, in the reed swamp by Taihu Lake, Chen Mo taught him.
The essence of it is that she later separated from Chen Mo. During her time in Xiayang City, she spent a lot of time playing with Jiaxing and the children from the private school.
"Hey, why is there an old man fishing?"
Yan Yu looked at another lake and happened to see an old man fishing on the rocks on the shore with a small bamboo pole. When he first arrived at the lake, he was blocked by obstacles and did not notice it. He walked around halfway
I went to the lake and realized there were other people here.
"Oh, this old donor, he has been here for a long time. We see him there every time we come here?" Gui Huijing explained.
"Were you there when you were taking a shower?" Yan Yu looked at Huijing in surprise.
"No, he's not here at night."
Yan Yuhui misunderstood and felt a little ashamed.
"I heard that he is a friend of Master Wukong and is here to discuss Taoism with Master Wukong." Huijing said.
"Then why is he here if he doesn't talk about Taoism?"
"I guess the discussion will be at night."
"Aren't you going to listen?" Yan Yu asked curiously.
"We can't go there. That's where they discussed the Tao." Huijing pointed to the forest shrouded in mist in the distance.
Yan Yu knew that, when Long You died, the tree cave monk warned them that they were not allowed to enter there.
"How long have they been discussing the doctrine?"
"I don't know. Anyway, he has been here for half a year." Huijing looked at their previous location, and all the friends who found the stone were gathered there. "Sister Yan, let's hurry up, they have all been found."
"Oh, let's go then." Yan Yu took a look, and then he and Huijing continued to walk around the lake.
The lake is not very big, and it won't take long for Yan Yu and the others to return to the main army.
"Sister Yan, sorry, that guy Jiehong found a very good stone. Where's yours, sister?" A group of young novices gathered around. The stone Jiehong found earlier made them feel bad.
He is a very good player, and he got such a good stone.
"Here." Yan Yu threw the stone in his hand.
The little novices looked at it and their expressions were a bit awkward. Although it was considered a handy stone, it was still far behind compared to the one in Jiehong's hand.
"This..." He stopped talking.
"Don't worry, stones are only secondary, kung fu is king." Yan Yu consoled him.
"Ke Jiehong's kung fu is also very good." They still didn't have much confidence.
"It's no problem. As long as the gap between you is not too big, I can still make up for it." Yan Yu said confidently.
"Are you ready?"
Jiehong looked at the stone in Yan Yu's hand and felt relieved immediately. The one she picked far away was similar to the one she picked before, but it was incomparable to the one in her hand.
"Jie Hong, we will definitely win."
The other young monks whispered excitedly. They had already thought about how their delicate little faces would be ravaged by them a hundred times later. Just thinking about it made their hearts beat loudly.
