Chapter 23 Chapter 23(1/2)
"He is really amazing. His articles are magnificent and exciting. The head of the mountain once said that among us, he may have the greatest fortune in the future. How dare I block his path with such a promising person?
"Although my father was dismissed from office, he would still be a rich man from now on. I asked my father to tell the mountain leader to change the place to continue studying. The mountain leader agreed and recommended me to go to Nanning Academy. On the day I left, I went down the mountain quietly, thinking that from then on, I would be separated from him and have nothing to do with him.
"Who knew that on the way to Nanning, I got a plague. Just when I thought I would die of illness on the way, he actually chased me." Looking back at the scene when I saw him at that time, Ginkgo still felt sweet in his heart.
"It was him who has been taking good care of me and snatched me back from the King of Hell little by little. After I woke up, he asked me why I left. Many reasons that could be easily said flashed through my mind at that time, but when I saw his eyes, I could not go against my heart.
"I asked him why he came to me, and he said something I can't forget. He said, 'I will come to chase you for the same reason as you left the academy'. I don't know what others are, but when I heard him say this, I heard the sound of flowers blooming."
"Later, he and I went back to the academy. But some things could not be hidden at all. I was stared at by someone, and soon our affairs were discovered. We had a dispute with those who were sarcastic and fell to death.
"It is natural to kill someone. Besides, this man's father was not in the court, so now that this incident happened, he would not let it go. Moreover, the academy was condemned by many parties because of this matter. The mountain chief was so kind to me, and I don't want him to protect me as a reckless man and be in danger of his integrity in the evening.
"When I hanged myself, I saved me every year and said that this was caused by us and we should bear it together. He went to buy pills, and we made an appointment to commit suicide by taking poison, which would not drag others down.
"It was not until after my death that I realized that my classmates thought that I seduced Fengnian and dragged down the academy. I had more than enough death, but it was not worth it. They changed Fengnian medicine and handed over my body. You all know what happened later."
After Ginkgo was finished telling, Fu Yao didn't say anything, but Sanniang, who couldn't drink, said hesitantly: "Li Fengnian, this name sounds familiar."
"He reads a good book and thinks he should be famous." Ginkgo said for granted, but then he smiled bitterly, "I really don't blame him for survival. That damn dog is not worthy of the two of us being buried with him. I just couldn't accept it. The person who cared so much at the time was now moved by others."
After saying that, he grabbed the wine jar and continued to pour it.
Rice wine has a lot of energy, of course it is more likely that the drinker wants to get drunk, and the ginkgo quickly fell over.
Maybe there was a thorn in his heart, and Ginkgo did not go back to reincarnation. In the days that followed, he still read books to Fu Yao every day.
Until one day later, he figured it out and suddenly announced: "I have decided that I am late this time, so I will continue to wait for him to grow old and enter the cycle of reincarnation with him."
"I just like him so much, I have to do it?" Fu Yao said.
"Yes!" Ginkgo answered extremely firmly.
Fu Yao nodded, "That's OK."
That night, Fu Yao did not leave Dacien Temple.
After dawn, there were more and more pilgrims in Dacien Temple, and Ginkgo met Li Fengnian again, who brought people to burn incense.
I had already made some preparations in my heart, but when I saw him and other women come to burn incense together, Ginkgo still felt his chest hurting.
"I'll go back to the tree first." He said in a muffled voice, intending to not appear again for the next few decades. If you can't see it, you shouldn't be sad.
"Don't be anxious." Fu Yao said.
The two of them stood under the ginkgo tree in the backyard of the temple, which was so weird that it was eye-catching. When Li Fengnian came with the woman who was traveling with him, they also saw Fu Yao sitting in the sedan chair in black and ginkgo beside her at first sight.
Li Fengnian recognized the ginkgo and said to the ginkgo: "What a coincidence, we met again."
"Yes." Ginkgo smiled reluctantly and avoided the side.
Li Fengnian also noticed the alienation of the boy in front of him, and he continued to talk without making any sense of boredom. Just as he was about to leave, an old man suddenly jumped out next to him.
The old man stopped him and the women who were with him, looked at their faces and said, "Two good faces. I have never seen such a matched fate for so many years."
Li Fengnian never believed in ghosts and gods. When the old man said this, he frowned slightly and didn't want to continue listening. But the woman beside him said with a look of surprise: "Really? How did you see it?"
"You two don't know that your destiny is the fate of three lives. In the previous life, you were a couple, and they ended in harmony. This life is just a renewal of the previous fate." The old man said, "There are flowers that can be broken and you must be broken. Don't wait for the empty branches without flowers to break. If the two can combine, they will definitely have more blessings and longevity and their descendants will be extended."
The woman's face suddenly blushed and covered her face with a handkerchief.
"You said, their fate is determined to be three lives?" Ginkgo walked over at this time, staring at Li Fengnian and confirmed.
"Of course, I have never been allowed to see my photos for so many years." The old man said, touching his beard.
Ginkgo suddenly laughed, "They are... renewing their relationship now?"
"Yes."
"That's right..." Ginkgo nodded and turned around to leave. Li Fengnian noticed that his expression was wrong and called out, "You..." But before he finished speaking, Ginkgo suddenly turned around and grabbed his neck with one hand.
"You actually have a life of fate with others?" The black nails grew little by little, and the ginkgo looked at his former lover with cold eyes, trying hard to endure his emotions. "You live in harmony with others, and have more children and more blessings with others... Then what about me, what am I?"
The sudden change scared the woman and the old man next to him. The old man suddenly got into the crowd. The woman wanted to come up to save the person, but found that she could not get close to them at all.
Over the Dacien Temple, dark clouds gradually condensed, and the surroundings became dark little by little. A strong wind blew up in the temple, causing the windows and doors to ring, and the golden bells were ringing.
After the abbot of the temple noticed it, he said "bad" and immediately came to the backyard. Before he got close, he found that he was stopped.
"This donor, I see that the resentful soul still has Buddha nature, so I keep him here. But the person he is going to kill now is a person with great fortune. If he makes a big mistake, he will inevitably be struck by heavenly thunder!"
"I know." Fu Yao looked at the two people tangled under the tree. Not only did she know, but she also saw him being split with her own eyes. "This is what Li Fengnian owed him."
Seeing that she was unmoved and could not help but save the person, the abbot sighed, closed his eyes next to him, and recited the Buddha's name.
However, these Buddhist sounds cannot enter the ears of Ginkgo. He saw the person pinching his hands turn blue little by little, and a bloody color gradually spread in his eyes.
With a "boom", the thunder exploded above their heads, and the ginkgo still did not let go.
"Let's die together," Ginkgo said in a cold tone, "just like what you promised me."
Li Fengnian tried hard to look at him with his eyes open. There was no hatred or fear in his eyes, and there was only an indescribable doubt, "Who are you?"
Ginkgo did not answer, his nails pierced into his neck, and blood had already oozed out. The bright red blood flowed into his fingertips, and the smell of blood became stronger and stronger.
The thunder in the sky rolled even louder, as if it was about to be chopped down at any time.
"Who are you?" Li Fengnian still insisted on asking.
This time, Ginkgo touched his eyes and suddenly remembered that when he was in the academy, he sneaked into Li Fengnian's quilt at night and was discovered by him. He frowned and said coldly, "It's you."
The heart seemed to be burned, and Ginkgo subconsciously let go of his hand.
When he came back to his senses, his reason was gradually recovering. He stepped back step by step, his eyes dissipated, "I don't believe... You are not him, how could he not recognize me..."
As soon as he touched the ginkgo tree, his figure disappeared. Seeing him leave, Li Fengnian was immediately carried away by the abbot and others, but the thunder clouds in the sky did not dissipate for a long time.
In this darkness, Fu Yao came to the tree and asked him: "Why didn't you kill him?"
Ginkgo was in a state of despair and asked her, "Can the thunder really break me away?"
"So you would rather be wiped out than kill him." This was another choice, and Fu Yao had nothing to say, "I haven't noticed the Taoist collection that I have read for so long?"
Ginkgo looked up at her.
"The three theories of cause and effect in "The Collection of Eternal Immortals" written by Zhao Hong, the second is the master Weng Jiedushi Li. He was poor in his young family and went to Songyang Academy. While studying, he accidentally killed his classmates and helped him bury the truth. Later, he was named a gold medal and promoted all the way. His former classmates were suppressed because they knew his old stories and were unable to get involved in the officialdom. And such a person who held great power was poisoned to death by the chef at home at the age of 40. And that chef was the parents of his classmates who he killed in the past." Fu Yao said.
"Director Li..." A hint of disbelief rose in Ginkgo's eyes.
"Although the truth of the matter has been distorted, the final result has not changed." Fu Yao said: "The governor of Li, whose surname is Li, has a name and is notorious, and his courtesy name is Fengnian."
Ginkgo was confused for a moment, and he slowly shrank into a ball, his hands slowly covered his face. After a long time, he heard a low cry from his fingers, "Dad, mother..."
The dark clouds that were cage above their heads gradually dissipated, and the sun shone again into the Dacien Temple.
Fu Yao opened his hand and a drop of crystal tears slowly fell to her palm.
Without disturbing Ginkgo looking back on the past, Fu Yao disappeared from the spot.
...
At the same time, a dusty visitor knocked on the door of Qingsongguan.
When Manager Jiang saw that the person who came was wearing was not bright enough, the fabric was of the best material. When he heard the person's words and the Beijing dialect, he immediately knew that the person who was coming was here.
"You are here to find Miss Fu San, right?" said Manager Jiang.
The person was shocked. The adult only said that he would check the Taoist temple to see if he could find the whereabouts of the third girl, but he did not expect that when he came, the third girl was still there.
"Miss Fu San you are talking about..." He was cautious and did not dare to respond casually.
"Of course it is Miss Fu San from the Duke of Dingguo in the capital." Manager Jiang said, "Didn't your master ask you to pick someone up?"
The side was stunned. It was correct to say that, but... he always felt that it was a little smoother.
"It's true." No matter what, it's absolutely right to find the person first.
"Then I'll go and invite people out now." Manager Jiang smiled and went to the back room to help a man wearing a black dress and a black hat.
Seeing that the other party was so tightly wrapped, the party naturally had doubts, but he still tentatively tentatively said: "The villain has seen the third girl."
"Uncle Fang, you need to be polite," said the woman in black. "You are the old man next to Uncle Fourth, I can't destroy you."
When the sound was heard, the third girl was really good. The sound of the voice was relieved and did not ask her why she was dressed like this. After all, the matter of the master was not something that he could talk too much now. He just needed to make the orders of the adults.
When he found the person he was looking for, he didn't even drink water and took the third girl to the carriage back to Beijing. And the shopkeeper Jiang also followed him on the carriage because of the request of the "third girl".
They went from Lishui to Yangzhou and took a boat all the way north. They happened to encounter a good wind and saw the towering walls of the capital in about three days.
After getting off the boat and changing to the carriage, before leaving for a long time, the carriage suddenly fell into a mud pit. No matter how hard the horse pulled it, the carriage couldn't get up.
Just as he was pulling the horse hard, two couples came to him, and said, "Even if you beat the horse to death, the wheels may not be able to come out."
As they said, one person was carrying the side, and the carriage carriage and the people above were lifted up by them. When they lifted the carriage, they pushed forward, then clapped their hands and said, "Okay, I'll hit the horse gently in the future, and I feel it hurts when I see it."
The side bowed and thanked him and continued to drive away.
In the carriage, Fu Yao tskated, "It's all over now."
...
When he brought his people to Beijing, it was already half an afternoon. At the same time, there were lights and colorful decorations on the Duke of Ding, and the guests were everywhere, which was very lively.
Three days ago, the palace examination ended, Qi Shuangbai High School top scholar. According to the agreement, today is a great day for him to marry Fu Wuniang.
