Poor monks do not break the precepts

Huai Mingmo returned to the study, and before he sat down for a cup of tea, the little maid serving outside the courtyard reported the news of Xun Kewen's arrival.When he returned to the main house, he heard the noise of begging for mercy inside the house. Xin Li had the foresight to hide in the study room with Huai Mingmo tomorrow morning. Poor Luo Chen was alone with Ye Yuan, and naturally he was made to wail again and again.

"Brother Huai!" Ye Yuan hugged Huai Mingmo's knees and legs enthusiastically, and said with a smile, "Ye Yuan misses you so much."

Huai Mingmo gently touched Ye Yuan's smooth head, and said to Luo Chen: "Go to the second aunt and third aunt to see if there are any snacks that Ye Yuan likes."

Luo Chen knew that it was Huai Mingmo who gave him the chance to escape, so he expressed gratitude to Huai Mingmo, hurriedly responded, and disappeared in a flash.Seeing that there was no one to play with, Xiao Yeyuan obediently sat back beside Xun Kewen with dissatisfaction, "Why is that strange aunt outside the museum kneeling all the time? Is it like me, she got punished for causing trouble?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Xun Kewen reprimanded kindly, "I thought everyone was as naughty as you."

Huai Mingmo noticed the aura around Xun Kewen, and then remembered that the seat on the other side of Xun Kewen had been occupied by Ye Yuan, so he stood up and moved a seat to the side, and said with a smile, "Uncle Gu Yu, please sit down."

"No need, he still wants to help you feel the pulse. Wouldn't it be troublesome to sit in the middle?"

Xun Kewen smiled and took Baiguyu's hand, and directly pressed Baiguyu on the vacant seat, "Sit down, guests can do whatever they want."

Bai Gu Yu really didn't say much or stood up, but still thoughtfully moved the wooden stool back a little, so that Xun Kewen could diagnose Huai Mingmo's pulse.

Just looking at Huai Mingmo's complexion, which was rosy and radiant, he was far more refreshed than before. In fact, Xun Kewen knew that there was no need for a pulse diagnosis, but he was a little puzzled and couldn't help but want to check the pulse.Huai Mingmo's pulse is calm and gentle, neither floating nor sinking, neither thin nor flooding, and the rhythm is even, it is actually a constant pulse.

Previously, even when Huai Mingmo was in good health, his pulse would often be weak.Xun Kewen withdrew his hand in surprise, and said in disbelief: "Xiao Mingmo, which doctor prescribed the medicine for you? The prescription is still there."

Xun Kewen's expression was strange, and Xinli was so frightened that he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xun, is the young master unwell?"

Zheng Fengnian suddenly remembered Xu Sheng's pills, and asked anxiously: "Is the young master poisoned?"

The two sentences for no reason confused Xun Kewen for a while, but after a while he realized that he had misunderstood himself, and quickly explained: "No... I have prescribed prescriptions for Xiao Mingmo's body for many years. It has never been able to cure the deficiency syndrome brought out from the womb. But this time he went to Qingzhou Prefecture due to illness, and the original deficiency syndrome was completely cured. Naturally, I wanted to take a look at the prescription, and was even more curious about the cure for Xiao Mingmo Who is the tall man?"

Zang Li and Ye Yuan sat opposite each other and played a game of clapping their hands to relieve their boredom. Hearing the words, he muttered, "The pill really has a miraculous effect?"

"What pill?"

Zang Li has always been forgetful and doesn't like to remember insignificant things. Seeing Xun Kewen's eyes staring at her as if he was going to devour her, she was so frightened that she couldn't remember, so she could only gesture with her hand, "This size ,color……"

Seeing Zang Li's bewildered look, Xinli chuckled and interjected, "It's Yu Qiongsheng."

Xun Kewen was stunned for a moment, even his expression froze suddenly after an instant reaction, his mouth seemed to be pursed, he was talking or not smiling, his eyes were wide open, his expression was like a puppet in a puppet show, it was very funny.After a long time, he came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he said excitedly: "Yu Qiongsheng? What Xiao Mingmo eats is Yu Qiongsheng? There are rumors in the world that there is no cure for any injury... Yu Qiongsheng?!"

"Mr. Xun, don't get excited." Xinli was worried that the old man would faint from excitement, so he hurried forward to help him at any time.

In the blink of an eye, Xun Kewen calmed down and asked again, "Who gave it to you?"

Huai Mingmo said truthfully: "Master Xu Sheng from Shaolin Temple."

Xun Kewen looked at Huai Mingmo's face in a daze, and said excitedly: "No wonder! Several times because the precious medicinal materials were gone, I changed my clothes and went back to the Valley of the Medicine King to collect medicinal herbs, and I met him many times." Regretted, he lamented again and again: "I didn't pay attention to what kinds of medicinal materials he picked."

"It's useless to remember, if a few herbs can be made, can Yu Qiongsheng still have the holy medicine rumored in the martial arts?" Luo Chen came back with two food boxes, just happened to hear Xun Kewen's words, and couldn't help answering. .As soon as he entered the room, he immediately opened the food box and spread all the dim sum dishes in the food box in front of Ye Yuan.

Xiao Ye Yuan would usually be overjoyed when he saw sweets and snacks, but today there was something abnormal, he pouted for a long time and bluffed his face, so scared that Luo Chen thought that he had a new trick to deal with him, so he quickly took a few steps back.

"What's the matter?" Huai Mingmo stretched out his hand to accurately pinch the porcelain plate of chestnut cake, put it in front of Ye Yuan's eyes, and coaxed, "Your favorite chestnut cake."

"The great monk lied to me." Ye Yuan said something without thinking, and folded his arms more and more angrily.

The people in the room suddenly looked at each other and didn't understand what it meant, Huai Mingmo suddenly had a thought, and asked hesitantly: "You mean Master Xu Sheng?"

"It's him." Ye Yuan puffed his face, and muttered: "There is such a useful medicine, but he asked me to work hard to make it for him. He promised to come to see me, but he didn't come."

Huai Mingmo was restless in his heart, and suppressed the urgency in his heart. He looked calm and said softly: "When do you remember?"

Ye Yuan only remembered that it was in August when the weather was still hot, but he couldn't remember the specific time.Fortunately, Bai Guyu was by his side, recalled a little, and said uncertainly: "I remember it was at the time of Liqiu, it should be about a day or two after that. He only rested in Yaowang's thatched cottage for one night, and I didn't talk to him for a few days. After saying a word, he left. I took a closer look at his face when he left, and it seemed that he had suffered internal injuries, but he was almost healed, so I didn't hold back much."

"I don't know if it's an internal injury, maybe it's just an illness." Huai Mingmo seemed to be chatting about family affairs, and he was obviously very concerned in his heart, but the tone of his tone was hard to imagine, and even Xinli and Zheng Fengnian were listening at a loss .

"I've seen his complexion, it should be a good internal injury." Ye Yuan said without confidence, and said: "But I haven't checked the pulse."

Huai Mingmo smiled lightly and said, "Little Ye Yuan is Mr. Xun's direct disciple, how can I not believe it."

After talking about the unhappy things in his heart, Ye Yuan ate the chestnut cake happily, and said vaguely while eating: "That big Housang, he is called Xuseng... Where does he live, rice is so happy to spend him , I'm going to play with him."

"Monk Xusheng?" A clear voice came from outside the house. The man who walked in looked a little like Huai Mingmo, with a scholarly look on his body, but also a little bit of the heartiness of a knight-errant.

"Brother De En, sit inside." Huai Mingmo patted the empty seat beside him.

"Father heard at my aunt's that you were back, and asked me to come and have a look." It was already dinner time, and Ji Deen came in such a hurry that he didn't even take a bite of the meal. Picking what he likes and putting it in his mouth, "Wulin is not peaceful recently because of the fake treasure. I heard that the Canglong Gang by the Canglang River and the Binzhou Song Family fought two days ago. It was all because of a fake treasure map. My father smoked If you don’t go out, you can only let the eldest brother come forward to persuade the two sides. Before he left, he told me that if you come back, you must pass the letter to him so that he can feel at ease."

"It's Mingmo's fault that Deloitte is worried."

Ji Deen patted Huaiming's ink shoulders carelessly, his face darkened, and he said with a smirk: "We are all a family, so I should be worried about you. You are always so polite, it makes people uncomfortable." After eating and drinking, Ji Deen Thinking of the name he just heard, he couldn't help saying: "Are you talking about Monk Xusheng? Hey, I haven't seen him for a long time. Since I drank a pot of Shuangqiu Zui in his withered grass hut, it tastes the same to drink other wines. wax."

"Master Biao knows Monk Xu Sheng?" Xin Liwei asked in surprise.

"Yes, I went to Qilian Mountain three years ago and accidentally scratched it. It happened to be a highly poisonous flower and leaf. I almost lost my life. Fortunately, he passed by and saved me. Later, I would often go to Jishi Mountain to look for him. By the way, ask for a drink, hey, you also know that his wine is not exchanged for a thousand dollars, if you want to drink, you can only ask for it." Ji Deen touched his chin, estimated the time, and his eyes lit up, "It's been several months since I counted. I'm going to bother him, I don't know if he will make autumn wine this year. Anyway, my father just said that my martial arts has improved a little, so I simply asked him to ask for advice."

"This monk Xusheng is good at saving people. He saved two Ji's family members in a row." Luo Chen took advantage of Xiao Yeyuan's eating hard and didn't notice the snacks a little far away, so he secretly helped Zang Li hide two plates of her favorite food.When he came out of the inner room, he heard the two talking about Xu Sheng, for Xu Sheng, he still didn't have a good impression, and his words were inevitably a bit sarcastic.

Ji Deen heard the unkindness in Luo Chen's words, but he didn't feel relieved, frowned slightly, and immediately asked: "Who else?" He saw Huai Mingmo's blank expression in a blink of an eye, and suddenly realized: "I listen to Boru It is said that you fell ill in Qingzhou Prefecture, could it be that the monk Xusheng healed you?"

"Yes, before I have time to thank him, he has already returned to Shaolin." Huai Mingmo briefly explained, only saying that Xu Sheng took good care of his illness, but did not say much about Yu Qiongsheng, after all, people who know There are already enough, adding more is afraid that it will cause trouble for Xu Sheng.

"So..." Ji Deen considered for a moment, and said heartily, "Why don't you go with me?"

Xinli gradually recovered from his confusion, he saw through what Huai Mingmo was thinking, and was quite shocked by the suspicion of Xu Sheng's identity, but he concealed it very well on the surface, as if he said casually: "Monk Xu Sheng seems to have a temper that is different from ordinary people's." It’s different, will you be unhappy to see many of us going?”

Ji Deen didn't care about this at all, and waved his hand and asserted: "I have met his other friends every time I go, don't look at him as a quiet and quiet person, he has made more friends than you and me, I think he will not be unhappy."

When Ye Yuan heard that he was going to visit Xu Sheng, he quickly raised his hand and said excitedly: "I'm going too, I'll go with you."

"No, you and Ah Yu go back to the Valley of the Medicine King and show me the medicinal herbs." Xun Kewen drank tea in silence, although he didn't know Huai Mingmo's thoughts, but he somehow guessed that they must have something to check when they went there, and of course they would not Let Ye Yuan follow to make trouble and commit danger.Slowly putting down the purple sand teacup, Xun Kewen said with a serious face, "Last time you were playful and didn't pay attention to the herbs I planted. Have you forgotten?"

Ye Yuan had a tearful look on his lips, how could he not remember being punished that time, he lost all interest in eating snacks, put his hands on his lap and bowed his head without speaking.

"If you are good, go back to Yaowang Valley with Uncle Gu Yu, and when I see Xu Sheng, I will tell him and let him take time to see you, okay?" Huai Mingmo said gently, maybe it was because of his background, he always treats people Gentle and polite, especially for orphans who have no father or mother.

The child's mind is always pure. Hearing what Huai Mingmo said, Ye Yuan immediately got excited and agreed repeatedly.After such a discussion, Huaimingmo and Ji Deen decided to set off in three days and send Ye Yuan and Bai Guyu back to Yaowang Valley along the way.Xun Kewen saw that they had already made arrangements for Ye Yuan's return to Yaowanggu, so he left in peace and went back to the courtyard where he was staying. When they met occasionally, Bai Guyu had a lot to say to Xun Kewen. Fortunately, Huai Mingmo was careful, Leave Ye Yuan that night.

Naturally, he couldn't go empty-handed when he went to see Monk Xusheng. Ji Deen ate and drank in Xusheng's sea several times, but he never gave him a gift in return, so he felt embarrassed.Fortunately, Huai Mingmo thought of Xu Sheng's emphasis on tea, and remembered the poisonous Yueshan silver needle in Qingzhou Prefecture, so he took it back as a gift. As for the people in Xuanji Pavilion, they have to be rushed to the Hermitage Villa six hundred miles away before departure.

Ye Yuan lived in the Wanting Hall for more than ten days, and was almost always accompanied by Zang Li and Luo Chen. Perhaps because of the long relationship, he never maliciously punished Luo Chen and Xinli, and even took the initiative to confess Take out the poison brought this time.

In a blink of an eye, when the day of travel was approaching, Huai Mingmo felt more and more anxious, his heart was like the rough waves of the Canglang River during a storm, and he could never calm down by any means.On the surface, he looked the same as usual, but Xinli found that the scent of Wentao Pavilion and the bedroom was getting stronger, and Xinli couldn't persuade him on the surface, so he adjusted his diet so that the meals made in the small kitchen were mainly for sleeping and resting. .

Huai Mingmo closed the book in hand and put it in the bag he was sorting out, "Was Ye Yuan sent to Mr. Xun?"

"Well, when we went, Mr. Xun and Mr. Bai were packing their luggage." Xinli put the soup of red dates and lotus seeds on the bedside of Huaimingmo, and buried himself in packing up the odds and ends needed for going out.

"Mr. Xun is planning to go back to the Valley of the Medicine King?" Huai Mingmo had a rough idea of ​​what happened 20 years ago, and said worriedly, "Even if the King of Medicine intends to live back, he is reluctant to do so. You send some people to protect him secretly, but the King of Medicine reappears." The rivers and lakes will eventually bring some troubles to the Wulin."

"Pavilion master, don't worry, I asked Yao Wang what he meant, he just planned to live back in Yao Wang Valley, and he didn't plan to come out of the rivers and lakes again."

"There is no impenetrable wall, let alone the rivers and lakes where news spreads the fastest."

"But the fact that Monk Xusheng is an incense thief is very well hidden." Xinli pretended to test, but he was not sure in his heart, but saw Huaimingmo's hand holding the bowl trembled suddenly, and the soup spilled all over his body, "The so-called Shaolin Temple does not accept female guests, does not take Zang Li to go, and leaves Luo Chen in the villa to take care of it, is it fake, are you trying to shield Monk Xusheng?"

Huai Mingmo took the wet handkerchief from Xin Li and wiped his hands, then changed into a clean pajamas, and said slowly: "I'm not trying to protect him, but if I guess wrong and ruin his reputation, wouldn't it be me?" ungrateful."

Xin Li knew that Huai Mingmo's mind was not so simple, he saw Huai Mingmo's expression was insincere, and said with a smile: "Recently, there are many troubles in the Xuanji Pavilion, and there are endless troubles in Xuanji Pavilion. Luo Chen can't do it." I have time to leave and go to Jishi Mountain." Xin Li raised his eyebrows, put away his hippie smile, and said solemnly: "If Xu Sheng is really a incense thief, what will you do?"

"I just want to know who is the person who sent the Fragrant Pirates to steal the Xingxiu Sword Manual. I have no intention of disclosing the identity of the Fragrant Pirates in the martial arts world."

"You understand what I mean. If the incense thief is a woman, of course the Ji family will accept it." Xinli lowered his eyebrows slightly, and seeing Huai Mingmo's hand clutching the bed frame, he sighed slightly: "If the incense thief is really Monk Xusheng, what you think in your heart is against the five ethics and eight virtues, and it is hard to tolerate in the world."

"Whether it's an incense thief or a false life, I have no other thoughts." Huai Mingmo swallowed the soup, put the bowl on the wooden tray impatiently, and lay down quickly, "I have to leave early tomorrow morning , you should go back to rest early."

Xinli didn't say any more, but sighed slightly before closing the door.

The water in the Canglang River will gradually calm down after August. This night, everything is quiet and there is no sound from the wind and rain, but Huai Mingmo has not fallen asleep until the fifth watch.
