The first one to start was Lin Wuyang.

It was just dawn, and Lin Wuyang, who hadn't slept well all night, turned over and buried his head in the pillow, when he heard someone sweeping the floor outside.

The sound of the broom was scraping layer by layer from a distance, and the sweeper was not skilled enough to hear any footsteps.

Lin Wuyang raised his head, squinted his ears, and listened carefully to the movement outside. It seemed that something different could be heard in this ordinary sound of sweeping the floor.

After listening for a long time, he lifted the quilt and sat up, hurriedly changed his clothes and put on his shoes.

Quan Wuyong, who was awakened by him, rubbed his eyes: "What are you doing? Are you leaving?"

Lin Wuyang reached out and pressed him down: "Don't go, don't go, it's early, you go on sleeping."

As he said that, he took the belt and ran out while fastening it.

It was Caiwei who was sweeping the floor in the yard.

Caiwei was still sweeping the floor in a regular manner, from the inside to the outside, taking care of every inch of the ground, and didn't even raise his eyes when he heard the door move.

Lin Wuyang went out, but stopped at the door instead.

He closed the door softly, leaned on the door frame and looked at Cai Wei, but got no response.

He stood at the door for a while, Caiwei had swept farther and farther away, Lin Wuyang hesitated, sighed, turned around, opened the door gently, and stepped in with one foot.

The first morning bell rang without joy.

Lin Wuyang bit his lip, retracted his foot, turned and ran towards Caiwei.

After Caiwei finished sweeping the courtyard, he went to the other courtyard. The morning bell had already rung, and soon everyone would get up and chant the Buddha.

Lin Wuyang moved closer to him, approaching him with a smile: "Master, do you sweep the floor like this every day?"

Caiwei nodded, but kept moving, as if Lin Wuyang didn't exist.

Lin Wuyang continued to laugh, walked to him with his hands behind his back, walked backwards, and chatted with him casually: "Master, I'm leaving..."

Caiwei did not respond.

"I went with them, they saved me...ah, don't worry, it's not a big deal, they just redeemed me, ah, I wasn't actually sold..." Lin Wuyang laughed, "I know what you want It's a big deal, for sure, I heard that you are the most likely to take over as the person in charge, hahaha, so amazing..."

Caiwei continued to sweep his floor.

"Wow, then you will go to the Buddhist hall to give lectures." Lin Wuyang recalled, "Does that count as consummation of merit?... I don't know much about this."

Scattered monks had already gone out, those who passed by put their palms together and worshiped Caiwei, Caiwei stopped to sweep the floor and saluted them back.Lin Wuyang also stopped, and when Caiwei continued to move, he followed suit.

"Caiwei... Let me call your name. It's a nice name. I heard it's because you were brought back in the pea bushes. How could someone put you there? If I live for decades, Just take you away! Hahaha..."

"You don't know my name, do you? That's right, I haven't told you yet. My name is Lin Wuyang, and I live in Nanling, but I actually lived with my grandparents in Donghu since I was a child. Later..."

Lin Wuyang followed Caiwei and swept from the east corner to the west corner of the courtyard, talking about his running around in just 20 years.

The morning bell rang a second time, and Yu Yao and the others also got up, saying goodbye to Dushui, standing far away at the gate of the inner courtyard.

Lin Wuyang glanced at Yu Yao and the others, and speeded up his narration of the past: "...and then I'm here!"

"Let me think about what else to say..." Lin Wuyang read, still following Caiwei, and turned a corner with the sweeping monk.

"Oh, by the way, I have a nickname, only my family members call me Sleepy, you can call me Lin Sleepy..."

Caiwei didn't respond from the beginning to the end, but now it stopped suddenly, didn't look up or look at Lin Wuyang, just turned around, and continued to scan in another direction.

Lin Wuyang was stunned for a moment, because he had been walking backwards, he turned his head and glanced, there was a stone pit on the way he was going backwards.

Instead, Lin Wuyang didn't know what to do, he stayed where he was and looked at Caiwei's back.Yu Yao and the others had already walked over and waved at him: "Let's go!"

Lin Wuyang also replied to him: "Come here!"

Yu Yao and the others walked towards the door, and Lin Wuyang followed. When passing by Caiwei, he stopped for a moment and smiled again: "Caiwei, I'm leaving. I wish you... all your wishes come true. "

Lin Wuyang ran out and caught up with Yu Yao and the others.

Caiwei stopped, there were no monks in the courtyard for a long time, and the morning bell summoned them all, and began to chant at the second.

Caiwei turned around and stopped at the courtyard that had been swept three times, and missed the chanting, he finally looked up at the courtyard gate where the man ran away, just like every gate in this place of no joy, it was cold light gray.

In the empty yard, Caiwei put away the broom, he went to pick off the beads hanging around his neck, and walked towards the scripture hall amid applause.Suddenly thought of the word "sleepy" for no reason, and smiled.

The string of beads exploded suddenly, and the beads rolled all over the floor.

Caiwei watched the beads rolling on the ground, rolling into the distance, scattered in the yard in black, dotted on the gray ground.

He stared blankly for a while, then squatted down, and picked them up one by one.

Yu Yao walked beside Lin Wuyang and hooked his shoulder: "Brother, what do you want to eat in the morning?"

Lin Wuyang rolled his eyes at him: "Can't we just leave after eating in the place of no joy?"

Yu Yao smiled teasingly: "Are you eating? Don't you have other things to do?"

Lin Wuyang blushed and turned her head: "I mean you eat."

Quan Wuyong interjected: "The rice in Wuxi Land is for people to eat? I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

Lin Wuyang pushed him: "Annoying."

Quan Wuyong was unhappy: "It's no use telling the monk any more, he is a monk."

Lin Wuyang was also unhappy: "What's wrong with the monk, the monk is also a human being, and the monk is not a eunuch."

"All right, all right." Yu Yao interrupted them, "Hurry up, I'm hungry."

They found an early breakfast shop at the foot of the mountain, and there were many travelers on their way. They ordered a few drawers of meat buns, ordered some porridge, and sat down to wait.

Travelers are in a hurry, but there are not many locals in terms of clothing.There are two people at the next table, talking about miracles.

One said: "If you say it's strange, it's probably because of this."

The other replied: "I don't know when Nanling will stop."

Fenghou, who was about to go to Nanling, pricked up his ears in the direction. After listening for a long time, Yan Laixing asked: "Excuse me, we are going to Nanling, please ask, Nanling Is something wrong?"

One turned his head and looked at them: "It seems that you are not locals."

Quan Wuyong cupped his fists: "Beihai."

The man also replied: "I'm from Nanling. It's not a big deal to ask, but Qing Yizhang of Nanling recently had a murder case, and he was under martial law."

Yu Yao asked, "Martial law on murder?"

The man explained: "It's not an ordinary murder case. A family of four was murdered. It's a massacre."

Sealing the throat, several people looked at each other.

The man continued: "You don't have to worry, with the Beihai pass and the name card, I think it won't be difficult."

He sealed his throat and thanked him, then turned back to his own dining table, where the two had eaten, said goodbye and went on the road.

Lin Wuyang asked: "We're not going to Qingyizhang next, are we?"

Ling Xing nodded: "Nan Lingqing is one foot high, and the starting point is two."

Yan Laixing looked around the crowd: "Which of you has been to Qingyizhang?"

Lin Wuyang replied: "Although I am from Nanling, I am from Nanling Gaozheng. I have never been to Qingyizhang. But I heard that Qingyizhang is a small place, and there is a very famous 'Qingsong Old Man'."

Quan Wuyong rubbed his chin: "I have been to Nanling, I went with senior brother, but senior brother is for smoking powder cigarettes..."

Yu Yao: "...Don't talk about that, what does 'Old Man Qingsong' do?"

Lin Wuyang looked at him: "I remember, it seems to be a fortune teller."

Yu Yao was surprised: "Fortune teller? Is it accurate?"

Lin Wuyang nodded: "It's quite accurate, the incense is very strong, I heard that the third, sixth, and ninth grades of junior high school have the most hexagrams, and there are especially many people who come from far away to ask for divination."

Yu Yao was surprised, if he knew something about Wuxi Land before, but he had never heard of this mysterious figure, Old Man Qingsong.

"When did this Qingsong old man become famous?"

Lin Wuyang thought for a while: "Maybe it's just a few years..." Then he remembered something, "He became famous very quickly, and he is a descendant of the Seven Gold School."

Yu Yao: "..."

Lin Wuyang: "It is said that this old man Qingsong is bestowed with divine power, and he is the only successor of the Seven Gold School after the fall."

Yan Laixing was puzzled: "No, if you are a descendant of the Seven Gold Sect, why didn't you return to Beihai?"

Quan Wuyong shook his head: "Qi Jin has defected, what face does he have to go back to Beihai?"

Lin Wuyang had a wild idea: "You think he is the illegitimate son of the old fairy Qijin?"

Yu Yao: "..."

Quan Wuyong clapped his hands: "It's possible, the calculation is just right, the old man Qingsong must not be too young, it is very possible."

What they said seemed to be true, gossiping while eating.

Ling Xing changed her seat and sat next to Yu Yao: "Is it my illusion, or are you particularly sensitive about Qijin?"

Yu Yao turned to look at Ling Xing. He had to say that last night Ling Xing was much better than the usual Ling Xing. Now Ling Xing has regained his keen observation and ubiquitous sense of oppression.

Yu Yao didn't speak, and felt that Ling Xing, who had guessed right, was slowly getting a little proud.

Yu Yao put her arms around his shoulders: "I like you better last night."

Ling Xing froze for a moment, frowned, pushed Yu Yao away, and gave him a disgusted look.

Yu Yao continued to grab his shoulders, and asked half-truth, "Ah Xing, who do you want me to be?"

Ling Xing didn't push him this time.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Lin Wuyang snatched the last bun from Quan Wuyong's hands.

Quan Wuyong looked at him: "Eat more, you will gain weight."

Lin Wuyang: "I'm broken in love, I'm not afraid."
