After coming out of Uncle Chengyi's house, the smile on Lin Wan's face disappeared completely, and the sadness in her eyes could not be dispelled. She asked her two aunts, and then asked some of the nuns around her grandma, how did her grandma sleep these days?

There is less and less food, and there is also less food.

Unable to eat, the doctor prescribed several prescriptions, but nothing worked. What if it was grandma... Lin Wan's heart tightened. She felt cold all over for no reason, and her legs couldn't work hard. She walked to the carriage at the second door with messy steps.

.

"Go to Cishou Temple." Lin Wan climbed into the carriage and sat down in a daze. She took a deep breath and ordered the woman who was driving the carriage. She was distracted at the moment and inexplicably wanted to talk to the old monk Jiwu.

. He could clearly see her origin... Maybe there really were gods and Buddhas in this world, and she had to go and seek help from the Bodhisattva.

In the back street of Chengyi House, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of the alley and whispered a few words to King Xining who was sitting in a small restaurant, squinting his eyes and tasting wine.

King Xining opened his eyes, laughed out loud after a while, patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, "Boys are getting older, and their abilities have also grown. That boy Zhou Ming is really good at being able to detect you!"

The middle-aged man gave a wry smile, with a mixture of nostalgia and emotion in his expression, and sighed softly: "My subordinates are getting old too."

King Xining jumped up from his chair, glanced at the middle-aged man sideways, and hummed: "What's old for? It's still early!" After that, he glanced at Uncle Chengyi's house, his face jumped with excitement, and he laughed, "

How about it, have you found out about the little girl’s whereabouts? I haven’t met my daughter-in-law seriously yet, so I have to get by first.”

The middle-aged man also laughed: "I don't know who gave the order to that boy Zhou Ming. He kept his mouth tightly shut. It seems that he really regards the girl from the Lin family as his master. Hey, my subordinates talked hard, so I got the right words.

, saying that the girl just told me to go to Cishou Temple."

A glint flashed in King Xining's eyes, he threw away the wine glass in his hand, grabbed the middle-aged man's arm, and made a decision in the blink of an eye: "Let's go, let's go to Cishou Temple too!"

Lin Wan got off the car at Cishou Temple. The young novices in the temple were all smart people. Knowing that it was the Lin family's carriage, they hurriedly reported the carriage. Lin Wan came out to pick up the people with a smile, but only Lin Wan was seen.

The superior was a little surprised and said with a smile: "The little benefactor came here alone today?"

Lin Wan nodded and said hello to the sky with clasped palms. "My little girl is worried about me. I came here to offer incense. I haven't seen Master Jiwu for a while. I wonder if Master is here?"

Liao Kong smiled like Maitreya Buddha, recited Amitabha Buddha again, nodded and said, "Almsgiver, please come with this young monk." Lin Wan hurriedly followed.

Entering the Zen room, there was not only Jiwu alone in the room, but there was also another person sitting opposite Jiwu.

Lin Wan stopped in surprise and glanced at Ji Wu inquiringly. Seeing this, Ji Wu waved to Lin Wan and shouted with a gentle face: "Come in and sit down." After that, he asked Zhong who was waiting behind him.

The monk changed the tea water and started brewing it himself.

Lin Wan hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked towards the kang, and her eyes naturally fell on the unfamiliar face. After looking at it like this, Lin Wan was shocked. When she looked at the back, she saw a tall figure with a straight back.

She thought he was a young man. Now she looked at his face. Although his eyes were bright and lively, the wrinkles on his face could not be concealed. He was actually an old man in his fifties.

Seeing that the old man was looking over with interest, Lin Wan smiled back and bowed his head in greeting. Then he moved forward and stood on the kang, quietly watching Ji Wu make tea, his eyes following Ji Wu's movements.

Suddenly up and down, my heart miraculously calmed down a lot.

The King of Xining suppressed the excitement in his heart and looked at Lin Wan with undisguised eyes. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that his son had a discerning eye. This little girl is very cute. It is rare for a person to be smart, and she seems to have a restrained personality.

Just right... The more King Xining thought about it, the more satisfied he became. He touched his chin and laughed silently. Finally, he raised his eyebrows at Ji Wu, with excitement in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Jiwu glanced at Xining and continued to make tea in silence. When the tea was ready, he poured a cup for King Xining and Lin Wan respectively, pointed to the Kang table against the wall and said to Lin Wan: "Sit there.

"

Lin Wan nodded without hesitation. She smiled and nodded to King Xining. Then she took off her shoes and sat in. She held the teacup in her hand and took a sip. The hot tea was in her mouth, and her teeth were full of fragrance. Lin Wan squinted.

He exhaled comfortably with his eyes and listened attentively to the conversation of the two old men.

"How about it? How good is my fortune?" King Xining glanced at Lin Wan intentionally or unintentionally, and smiled at Jiwu.

Ji Wu added some tea for Lin Wan, with clear eyes and a smile, he nodded in agreement: "The result is always good."

"Old monk, this is wrong. What do you mean the result is always good? Could it be that the process is not good?" King Xining snorted, glanced at Ji Wu with some disapproval, and said depressedly.

Jiwu smiled and said nothing.

"Hey, why are you speechless?" King Xining raised the corners of his mouth proudly and said with a smile.

The two of them just chatted about each other, and Lin Wan laughed in her heart. She suddenly felt that this old man was old, but he was like a child, accepting death and having to argue about right and wrong over such trivial matters.

.Is it true that we are young and old, and the longer we live, the younger we become? Unexpectedly, after a moment, the old man turned to him with a smile and asked: "What are you laughing at, little girl?"

Only then did Lin Wan realize that she was a little distracted. She was stunned for a moment, quickly put down the teacup, and smiled at King Xining: "I heard what the two elders said was interesting, so I lost my composure. Please forgive me."

The King of Xining waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter." When he was about to say more, Ji Wu got the better of him, and started to chase people away: "It's getting late, you should go back." At this age, Ji Wu could handle it.

The king of Xining is my father, and he is a foreigner with a casual temperament, so his words are naturally not polite.

King Xining rolled his eyes in anger, turned to look at Lin Wanshi and immediately changed his smile to a kind one. He took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and said with a smile: "Little girl, today you and I are destined, so I will give this to you."

Let’s do it as a meeting gift.”

Lin Wan was really stunned this time, and looked at Ji Wu with some confusion. Ji Wu's eyes were soft, and he seemed to be smiling, but he didn't say much. After hesitating for a moment, he saw the old man's face.

Excited, her admiring eyes also showed a bit of kindness from an elder to a junior. Lin Wan suppressed the doubts in her heart, took the jade pendant with a smile, and hurriedly thanked her without having time to look at it.

When King Xining saw this, he smiled even more heartily, got off the bed with vigorous movements, snorted proudly at Ji Wu, pointed at Lin Wan as if to show off, and then turned around and left the meditation room.

Lin Wan pursed her lips and smiled. She lowered her head and took a closer look at the jade pendant in her hand. When she saw it, she was shocked and almost jumped up from the bed. Lin Wan's heart was filled with waves. She endured it again and again, with complicated eyes.

He glanced at Ji Wu, took a breath, and asked word by word: "Is the person just now King Xining?"

"Since I guessed it, why bother asking again?" Ji Wu replied slowly, then filled up the tea cup for Lin Wan, and said without raising his head, "You are not at peace."

It's weird to be quiet! Lin Wan cursed in her heart, remembering how the King of Xining and Ji Wu were familiar with each other before, frowned and asked Ji Wu: "Master, do you know why the prince gave me this thing?" She was not dazzled yet.

, this jade pendant and the one that Lu Junzhao forced on her are clearly a pair! Lin Wan's brows furrowed tighter and tighter. Could it be that that black-faced man really went back and mentioned to the King of Xining and the Princess about marrying her?

The slightly smiling gaze of King Xining suddenly flashed before Lin Wan's eyes. Lin Wan's heart skipped a beat and she scolded Lu Junzhao several times angrily. Then she turned to Ji Wu and saluted solemnly: "Master, please clarify my doubts."

Jiwu glanced at Lin Wan with a smile, and sighed after a long time: "Buddha saves all sentient beings, and everything has its cause and effect. No need to ask more, you must know that as the saying goes, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge."

This old monk knew how to do Tai Chi at critical moments! Lin Wan exhaled irritably, pinched her fingers, and finally stopped asking. At this moment, it was useless for her to ask.

After a moment of silence, Lin Wan put the jade pendant in her hand and held it loosely, then loosened it and held it again. Then she curled up her fingers feebly and put the jade pendant into her sleeve. She gathered her mind and turned her gaze to Jiwu again.

Seeing the old monk brewing tea again, the movements of his hands flowing smoothly, and thinking of his grandmother, Mrs. Wang, Lin Wan lowered her eyes and asked in a vague voice, "Why do people get old, sick, and die?"

"There is a beginning, so there is an end. All things reincarnate, so they can live forever." Ji Wu had a smile on his face, but the movement of his hands did not stop. After a while, he took the cup again, poured the tea, and handed it to Lin Wan.

He smiled and said, "Just like a cup of tea, you have to drink it before it can be filled again. You can still taste the previous cup and the next cup, so you can always taste something new."

Old age, new birth, everything is like this. Birth, old age, illness and death are also human nature. Lin Wan smiled bitterly, feeling extremely sour in her heart. Everyone understands the truth, but that is a close relative that she respects and loves...

"Master said, will there be a soul after death?" Lin Wan asked in a low voice, stroking the teacup in her hand.

"Maybe, maybe not." Ji Wu's voice was still clear and powerful, with a hint of Zen.

Lin Wan raised her head and said angrily: "Don't you monks always say that Buddha saves all sentient beings? Let the world do more good deeds, and then you can enter the bliss after death? If there is no soul, then why do the world still worship the Bodhisattva?

?”

Ji Wu moved for a moment, stared at Lin Wan for a long time, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Have you never heard a sentence? If you believe it, there is it, if you don't believe it, there is nothing."

Lin Wan was choked and had nothing to say. She knew that these monks were used to cheating! This old monk was very talkative, and he knew how to play riddles. It was not useless at the critical moment. He said that he was a master, but he was almost a magician!

"Thank you for the good tea, Master!" After a long silence, Lin Wan suddenly got up and got off the kang and saluted Ji Wu, "I've had many interruptions today, so I'll take my leave."

Just as I was about to walk out, I heard Ji Wu suddenly say: "Just wait." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest support.
