treacherous world

While eating dinner, Zhan Zhao felt something was wrong with Bai Yu, as if he was thinking about his thoughts.Bai Yutang usually sits there quietly and does nothing. There are basically two situations, one is in a daze, and the other is thinking.To outsiders, there is no difference at all, but Zhan Zhao can tell the difference accurately.

In addition, Zhan Zhao could also see that Bai Yutang seemed a little irritable under his calm appearance, which was very rare!Zhan Zhao felt a little sorry, realized that now, Bai Yutang seemed to be worrying about his own affairs all the time, he was a good nobleman, and lived a carefree life, but running here in Kaifeng Mansion was so busy with him every day that he still had to treat guests It's really hard for him to eat.At that moment, Zhan Zhao had the urge to give her body, of course... that was the urge.

Xiaoyu is arranging the dishes, the kitchen lady is not here today, it is a big table with meals cooked by the two mothers and Hong Jiuniang.When everyone sat down to eat, they were all surprised, the two mothers are really good at cooking.

Bai Yutang looked down at the rocks rubbing against his feet, and stayed there all the time, thinking intently.

The fourth son stared at Bai Yutang and thought to himself——what's wrong with Bai Bai?

Zhan Zhao faintly felt that Bai Yutang was very concerned about what Wu Bushan had said before about his grandmother's mother and mirage master, especially the strange things like the destined lover and the continuation of the relationship.

In fact, Zhan Zhao felt that Bai Yutang didn't need to care about it. First of all, he didn't believe in past and present lives at all, and Zhan Zhao was Zhan Zhao.In addition, although Zhan Hao's whereabouts are a mystery, Zhan Zhao has always remembered his brother's friendship and care since he was a child, and never felt that he had any other thoughts.And what Zhan Hao said when he met him before, made Zhan Zhao feel that there seemed to be a mystery behind it, and it shouldn't be that simple.Anyway, Zhan Zhao only has Bai Yutang in his heart, and he firmly does not believe that Zhan Hao is hopelessly bad!

"Yutang." Yin Lanci put some food into Bai Yutang's rice bowl, "Eat."

Bai Yutang looked up, and saw Yin Lanci sitting next to him, nodding, holding out his rice bowl to eat.

Lu Xueer narrowed her eyes slightly, and reached out to pick up some food for Zhan Zhao, "Zhao, eat."

The two sons sat next to their mothers, holding their rice bowls and eating with their own minds.

Lu Xueer suddenly said to Zhan Zhao, "Zhao, do you have something to do tonight?"

"Well, it's nothing..." Zhan Zhaoxin said, do you want to discuss the case together?

Yin Lanci asked Bai Yutang, "Where's Yutang? Are you free tonight?"

Bai Yutang nodded.

"Auntie is going shopping tonight, you can accompany me." Lu Xueer poked Zhan Zhao.

Yin Lanci pulled Bai Yutang, "Yutang, auntie is going shopping at night, why don't you go with me?

"Oh." Bai Yutang also nodded.

Afterwards, everyone went on to eat.Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, they were a little curious about each other, and the others were even more curious—why did Lu Xueer want Zhan Zhao to go shopping without Bai Yutang, and Yin Lanci wanted Bai Yutang to follow?

Bai Xia smiled and asked his wife, "My lady, shall I go too?"

Lu Xueer shook her head mysteriously, "You are not allowed to go!"

Bai Xia immediately understood that there was probably another plan.Zhan Tianxing poured wine for him, and they will have a drink with Zhao Pu and the others in the yard at night.

At night, Lu Xueer and Yin Lanci pulled one out, one to the east and the other to the west, and went shopping.

When I went out, I found out that there was a lantern festival in Kaifeng Mansion tonight.

"It's not a year or a festival, why is there a lantern festival?" Zhan Zhao has been worrying about the case of the blood demon for the past few days. When he saw the crowds of people on the street showing signs of peace and prosperity, he felt that Kaifeng was still the same Kaifeng as before and had never changed. However, what changed was only his state of mind.

Lu Xueer smiled and patted him, "Some things are just that, the more you take it seriously, the more it will affect your life, and in the end, even the things you see every day will become strange."

Zhan Zhao was slightly surprised, it turned out that Lu Xueer brought her out to enlighten her.

Zhan Zhao smiled and patted his head, "Actually, it doesn't matter to me, but Yutang might be thinking wildly."

"Don't be afraid, your mother will enlighten him." Lu Xueer walked forward with Zhan Zhao on her arm, towards today's destination... The Iron Buddha Temple in Kaifeng City, I have agreed with the master in the meditation hall, and I will arrange a chance for the two of them !

Bai Yutang followed Yin Lanci and bought a lot of things along the way. Many girls looked at Yin Lanci enviously on the way, and saw Bai Yutang following behind her, holding the big bags that Yin Lanci bought in his hands.

Yin Lanci bought a lot, and Bai Yutang asked, "Auntie, do you want to go back and give away after buying so much cloth and tea?"

"Yes." Yin Lanci nodded, and revealed that there were countless relatives of three aunts, six wives, seven uncles and eight aunts, who said they wanted to give gifts.

Bai Yutang was a little helpless, thinking that these relatives would buy a sack of peanuts each, so he asked, "Why don't Auntie make a list and I'll call Bai Fu to buy it tomorrow?"

"How can it be done?" Yin Lanci smiled, "Gifts are all about heart, and the most important thing is the sincerity that you want to give to you. It can't be obtained by just spending money or ordering others."

After hearing her words, Bai Yutang seemed to gain something, but he couldn't hear anything specific. He was preoccupied, so he didn't ask any more questions, and continued walking.

Seeing him blankly, Yin Lanci said, "Shall I tell you about Zhao Hehao'er's childhood?"

Bai Yutang was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "They have a good relationship?"

"Well, the brothers get along well, but Zhao has been very obedient since he was a child, and never messed around with others." Yin Lanci raised the corner of his mouth, "You are the only one who will be bullied by him in the whole world."

Bai Yutang looked up at the sky, yes, Zhan Zhao was a docile cat in front of others, but in front of himself he was wild, with nimble paws.

"You and Zhao have known each other for a long time. A few years ago, when he wrote home, he mentioned you." Yin Lanci smiled.

Bai Yutang was curious, "How did he write it?"

"Oh, I remember that at the beginning, there was a very good-looking boy who turned him into a cat, and he must take revenge!"

Bai Yutang couldn't help laughing, this cat really holds a grudge.

"Gradually, there were more and more things about you in each letter, until later it was full of you." Yin Lanci said, recalling, "When I read the letter, I said, 'It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over. My little brother was kidnapped by someone.'”

Bai Yutang was surprised, after hearing so many things about the mirage master, he almost turned Zhan Hao into a demon, and always felt that he was a heinous and terrifying existence.

But now, after hearing what Yin Lanci said, it seemed that he was just an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary.

"Hao'er is a child I raised like Tian Xingdangzhao. He is definitely not that kind of evil spirit, devil or anything like that. He is all nonsense." Yin Lanci patted Bai Yutang, "Besides, don't say anything. Nonsense talk about reincarnation, destiny, etc., what if there is a marriage contract? If you love me, I would rather elope."

Bai Yutang laughed, Yin Lanci is an open-minded mother.

"You two are lucky children. You don't have to worry about anything. You are doing things you like, and you don't have to worry about making a living when you have housework. You are more capable and talented. With such a good condition, you should put your mind to loving each other with peace of mind. Don't waste your time thinking about it. It's time."

Bai Yutang nodded seriously, feeling that he was thinking too much, this matter was not turning jealous, but completely unfounded worry, he should have confidence in Zhan Zhao.

So, Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang, whose depression was relieved, accompanied the two mothers to continue to stroll along the road, walking naked, and arrived near the Tiefo Temple.

The abbot of Tiefo Temple is Bao Zheng's good friend Monk Wenqing, he is probably over 60 years old this year, a big fat monk with gray hair, very kind.

After Lu Xueer brought Zhan Zhao in to worship, she said she wanted to borrow a room in the temple.

Going to the temple to eat and live is not just for eating or living, but for quietness. In addition, to wash away the dust, so as to achieve a state of meditation and peace.

Lu Xueer went to live in the female guest room, and Zhan Zhao lived in the male guest room.

The so-called guest room, a room is not big, but there is no bed, one side is big, and people sleep in the cabinet, which is called a cabinet shop.The cabinet shop in Tiefo Temple has a history of hundreds of years. It is said that several generations of eminent monks learned Zen in the cabinet shop.

Zhan Zhao entered the guest room, feeling that it was rare to be quiet for a while, so he got into the cabinet shop.

Not long after, I felt that someone had also got into the cabinet shop next door. I lay down, and there was a wooden door between the two. In this temple, it’s very economical. The monks make alms during the day and make scented wax, all of which are sold. Those who help the poor do not light their own lamps. They pay attention to rising at sunrise and sleeping at sunset.

Soon, the surroundings were pitch black and quiet.

Zhan Zhao turned over, wondering what Bai Yutang was doing right now, did Yin Lanci make things difficult for him?

At this time, Bai Yutang was lying in the closet next door, and was also kidnapped by Yin Lanci to stuff him into the guest room.What he was thinking at this moment was, his mother shouldn't play tricks on Zhan Zhao or bully that cat.

The cabinet shop is made of gloomy wood, which is old and a bit shady.

Zhan Zhao looked around, he didn't have a quilt yet, and wondered if he was outside?Just want to sit up.

With a "boom", his head hit the cabinet board on the upper floor.Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, and cursed inexplicably, "Damn rat!"

Bai Yutang was next door, and the tone of the voice was familiar to him, but he couldn't really hear it through the wooden board.

Zhan Zhao opened the cupboard door and went out. Heiteng fumbled around, but couldn't find the quilt. He got angry and said, "Why is there no quilt?"

Bai Yutang listened to it from the next door, looked at the cover on his body, and found that he had a quilt here, but the person next door didn't know who it was...

"Ah." Zhan Zhao lay down, sighed, and suddenly wondered if the man next door had any quilts, did he want them from the monks?Just ask, "Does brother have any quilts?"

Bai Yutang recognized the voice and tone of voice, it turned out to be the cat!He immediately understood Yin Lanci and Lu Xueer's intentions.

Bai Yutang thought about it, turned around, deliberately lowered his voice, and first recited the sound of the Buddha, "Amitabha, benefactor, the sleeping cupboard, you can't cover the quilt."

Zhan Zhao didn't realize that it was Bai Yutang who was teasing him, and thought that the person sleeping next door was a master, so he nodded, "Oh, that's it."

He is not afraid of the cold, at worst, he can use his internal energy to run for a few weeks.

Just as I was about to calm down and sleep, I heard the monk next door suddenly ask, "Is there something on your mind?"

Zhan Zhao heard it and smiled, "It's okay."

"Most of the people who come to the sleeping cupboard have something on their minds." Bai Yutang said maliciously, "This cupboard has a function."

"What effect?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

"As long as you tell the unhappy things, those things will not bother you tomorrow."

"So amazing?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help laughing, "But if you say this, don't you want people to hear you?"

"This is the second effect of the cupboard shop." Bai Yutang continued to tease Zhan Zhao, who was still in the dark, "No one knows anyone, and the poor monk is in charge of listening to the benefactor's grievances, and also helping to resolve them. Donor. When the sun breaks, we will go our separate ways, and if we meet again, we won’t know who is who.”

"Oh..." Zhan Zhao suddenly realized that there is still this effect!It is very thoughtful, no wonder the cabinet shop of Iron Buddha Temple is famous.

"If the benefactor has any bitterness, he can pour it out with the poor monk."

Zhan Zhao thought about it, and thought it was true. This person doesn't know himself, so he might have unique insights. After all... everyone in Kaifeng Mansion cares too much about him.At worst, don't say anything important, just chat nonsense. Anyway, Zhan Zhao is not sleepy at the moment, and he is idle when he is idle.

"What troubles the benefactor?" Bai Yutang asked, "Official career, future, studies, or grievances?"

"Neither of them." Zhan Zhao thought for a while, and the grievances in the world were not counted.

"Is that love?"

"Uh... yeah."

"Family, friendship or love?"

Zhan Zhao rubbed his nose, "Love... or something."

"The benefactor has someone in mind?"

"Yes, I have."

"The person you like can like you"

"En!" Zhan Zhao nodded with a smile, "I like it."

"So that means mutual love?"

"En." Zhan Zhao then nodded.

"What's bothering the benefactor?" Bai Yutang asked, "Isn't it right that the family is not right?"

"Well, we don't pay much attention to this." Zhan Zhao shook his head.

"Family objects?"

"No, very supportive."

"Then why bother?"

Zhan Zhao turned over, lying on the cupboard, he couldn't figure it out, "The world is impermanent, and I always feel a little upset and flustered."

"What kind of person is the benefactor's favorite?"

"Yeah." Zhan Zhao felt better again, "She's a great beauty!"

Bai Yutang's eyelids twitched, and he warned himself—be patient!A small leak will sink a great ship.

"Is there any advantage?"

"There are a lot of advantages." Zhan Zhao smiled, "Everything is pretty good."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows - this cat is quite highly rated.

"What about the shortcomings?"

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Shortcoming... It's not a shortcoming, it's just a characteristic. He has a very special personality."

"Is there anything you don't like about him?"

"No." Zhan Zhao shook his head readily, "everywhere is fine."

"Then what are you worried about?"

"There are too many things on my side, and he was involved."

Bai Yutang frowned slightly, it turned out that Zhan Zhao cared about this.

"He dislikes you for a lot of things, involving him?"

"No, no, he is not this kind of person." Zhan Zhao sighed softly, "But he is usually carefree and carefree, and he doesn't care about anything. After meeting me, he is worried everywhere, and troubles come one after another."

"Maybe he doesn't think so." Bai Yutang couldn't help but said, "It's actually quite boring to ignore everything. You have brought endless fun to his life."

Zhan Zhao was surprised, this monk really knows how to comfort people!The level of the monks in the Iron Buddha Temple is really high!In addition, the tone of the speech, especially the slow and orderly energy, is somewhat familiar, but the voice seems to be lower.

"Do you really like that person?" the other side asked again.

"Yeah." Zhan Zhao nodded, and the more he heard it, the more he heard the sound. Zhan Huwei is not stupid, he is a clever ghost, and immediately felt that something was wrong, so he changed the subject, "But he doesn't seem to like me."

"Who said that?" Bai Yutang over there couldn't help but reply, knowing that he had slipped his tongue as soon as he opened his mouth.

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes, and said to himself—it really is that mouse!But he also pretended not to notice, and said to himself, "I heard that he liked many people before."

"Nothing." Bai Yutang shook his head, "Don't listen to that irrelevant person talking nonsense, he only liked you once."

"Is that so..." Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and pulled away the wall panel in front of him, sure enough, the wall panel could be pulled away!

Zhan Zhao stared at him, the whiteness in the darkness, "Bai Yutang!"

Bai Yutang was startled at first, and then calmed down. He couldn't see his fingers in front of him. It was impossible for Zhan Zhao to see him, so he quickly pinched his nose and said, "Benefactor, the poor monk's name is to feed the cat."

In a fit of anger, Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to grab a few handfuls across the body, touched his waist twice, and slapped the bed, "Damn rat, it's you!"

Bai Yutang was surprised and stopped pretending, "So sure?"

"Yeah!" Zhan Zhao replied, "You can feel it by touching your body!"

Bai Yutang was embarrassed, "You cat, you can also handle strangers?"

"I knew it was you, dare to fool me!" Zhan Zhao kicked the wall panel and rubbed it, grabbed a quilt, and pulled it towards him, "You still said there is no quilt!"

He dragged Bai Yutang together with the quilt, and Heiqi stretched out his hand to grab it, "Cat, it's you? Why did you come here? What a coincidence!"

Zhan Zhao was so angry that the mouse started to pretend to be stupid again. When he was angry, he felt his cheeks warm, as if Bai Yutang's breath was approaching.
