Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 86, Live in the moment

"The handwriting is really similar." The old man adjusted his glasses and said with a gentle smile, "Although I can't understand the words on it, the handwriting is exactly the same as my deceased wife."

The old man showed nostalgia and memories on his face. At the same time, he took out his pendant and lifted the cover of the pendant. It was a black and white photo. There was a man and a woman on it. The man was handsome and heroic. It can be seen that the old man was young The shadow of the woman is gentle and beautiful, dignified and delicate, with a smile on her mouth, she is also a rare beauty, the two seem to be a natural match.

"Look, it's me. This is when my wife was young. I really miss it. I haven't seen her write for almost ten years." The old man's face showed warmth.

When Hanxiang saw the photo above, she exclaimed in surprise: "Miss?"

"Miss? Haha, my wife used to talk in sleep, saying that she was the Miss Huo family or something. I said she was daydreaming. Her family's ancestors were poor and lower-middle peasants for three generations, and she was Miss Huo's family. If she is a lady, she doesn't need to marry." Give me this poor boy." The old man smiled and sighed at the same time: "You should take this letter back, although it is very similar to my wife's handwriting, it is not my wife's handwriting after all."

The old man handed over the letter, but neither Hanxiang nor Li Yun answered it.

After a moment of silence, Hanxiang said: "This letter is indeed for you. It is a person you may have forgotten. She wants to use this letter to tell you that even at the last moment, she has not forgotten her promise, nor has she forgotten bits and pieces of the past."

Seeing Hanxiang's serious expression, the old man also fell silent.

After a while, the old man laughed.

"Well, then I will accept this letter."

Hanxiang's expression was a little surprised, she thought the old man would not accept this letter.

"This letter is very important to you. It must be handed over to someone. I don't know if I am that person, but the handwriting is so familiar that I thought I saw the past. My wife." The old man sighed and accepted the letter.

"If the two of you are interested, come and take a look with me."

The old man got up and walked upstairs slowly.

Li Yun and Hanxiang entered the second floor of the watch repair shop. This small building was originally the old man's house, the first floor was a shop, and the second floor was used as a living place.

There is not much furniture on the second floor, only an old-fashioned color TV, some tables and chairs, a spiritual tablet in the middle, a black and white photo of a kind old woman, and some fresh fruits and candy tributes in front of the black and white photo.

Li Yun could tell that the old man often exchanged tributes, and the fruit was still very fresh.

"Look, this is my wife. The handwriting on this letter is very similar to hers. I even doubt that it was written by her, but she doesn't seem to be able to write so many words." The old man looked at the photo full of words. With a look of nostalgia, he put the envelope on the enshrined table, smiled and said to the photo: "This handwriting is quite similar to yours, I don't know if it was really written by you. Haha, don't be another woman Give it to me, otherwise, when I go to Jiuquan, how will you twist my ears."

The words are short but warm.

"It can be seen that you are very happy, old man?" Li Yun smiled slightly.

"Well, I was very happy in the first half of my life, and I was also very happy in the second half of my life." The old man nodded and smiled, "My wife went there naturally, without suffering from illness or other troubles, just sitting on the rattan chair, listening The little grandson and the stories my son told left quietly, with a smile on her lips when she left."

Li Yun nodded to express his understanding.

For the elderly, is it not a kind of happiness to be able to leave quietly?
Looking at the old man in this photo, Han Xiang put a stick of thin incense on her.

After burning the incense, Li Yun and Hanxiang both expressed their intention to leave.

"Won't you have a light meal with me?" the old man said, he felt that the two young people in front of him were quite pleasing to the eye, full of a peaceful temperament.

Li Yun smiled and shook his head, then pointed out the window.

A small car was parked outside the window, and a family of three got out of the car. The young man at the head looked a lot like the old man.

This is the return of the old man and his family.

But the old man was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to call Li Yun to stop, he found that he and Hanxiang had gone far away.

The bustling city, the white-robed fairy road.

The old man was like a dream, he was awakened by a cry before he woke up.

"Dad, I'm going home for dinner."

In the street at dusk, Li Yun and Han Xiang were walking on the road back to the Taoist temple.

Li Yun walked quietly, and Han Xiang followed quietly.

"I didn't expect them to live happily together after a thousand years. It's so good. It seems that the so-called heaven is not ruthless, and it will leave a glimmer of life for people." Hanxiang sighed.

The tragic experience thousands of years ago made her think that the Dao of Heaven is ruthless. Even if she is a mountain spirit, she still has the feeling that the Dao of Heaven is ruthless.

"Heaven is merciless, but human beings are merciful. The parting thousands of years ago did not cut off the relationship between the two. If they are destined, they will naturally meet each other." Li Yun looked into the distance, and then said lightly: "But the two are not Miss Huo after all, not Miss Huo after all. The son of the knife maker, the watchmaker and his wife are the ones who are happy."

Hanxiang paused, feeling that Li Yun meant something, and then said.

"Brother Daoist, do you want to say that the past is the past after all?"

Li Yun nodded, then turned around and smiled: "Yes, the past is the past after all. Only the present you are you, no matter whether it is the previous life or the present life, it is no longer you, and it is no longer the one for freedom. And the girl Hanxiang who promised to stick to it for a thousand years."

"Live in the moment?" Han Xiang murmured, chewing on this sentence carefully.

There was no words all the way, Han Xiang was thinking about that sentence, while Li Yun was calmly pretending to look at the distant scenery, full of wet demeanor.

After returning to the Taoist temple, that is, Xiangtou Mountain, Han Xiang was still thinking about the problem.

The panda and the rooster were fighting on the sidelines, and they were not afraid of Hanxiang now, after all, Hanxiang is visible now.

Back in the kiosk, the fragrant tea has become cold.

"Layman Hanxiang, have you considered it?" Li Yun looked at Hanxiang in front of him and smiled.

Han Xiang stopped thinking, but looked at Li Yun, a little shy, and said: "Well, I have already decided whether to reincarnate."

"So, what's your answer?"

Hanxiang Chick nodded like pecking at rice, already made up his mind.

Li Yun waved his whisk and said calmly.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Layman Hanxiang, can you enter my Taoism?"

"The little girl is fragrant, and is willing to enter the Sanqing Daomen."
