The Buddha Temple is not pure

Zhu Mengzhen came out of Mengjue Temple, her clothes were mostly wet, and the maid Furuo who came with her had been waiting outside for a long time.

"Girl, why did you come out?" Furuo stepped forward holding a banana leaf, but Zhu Mengzhen's cold eyes fixed her halfway. She had never seen a girl like this before.

The originally clear and clear eyebrows had lost the kindness of the past, and instead had a chilling arrogance, fierce and vicious. Her eyebrows were slightly drawn, and her slightly raised face just formed a perfect arc for the falling rain marks. It hasn't changed, why does it look like a different person?

The girl is not evil, right? Furuo glanced at the deep temple gate, as if there were some monsters and goblins inside. I heard that this Mengjue Temple is very evil, and it is a troublemaker and a child crying , Maybe there is really something unclean inside.

"Girl, what's the matter with you?"

Zhu Mengzhen stood there calmly, glanced at the misty mountain road, and did not speak.

Furuo swallowed her saliva, and said nervously: "It's raining suddenly, I'll go to the temple and ask them to borrow an umbrella, girl, just wait."

But Zhu Mengzhen stopped him: "No need, let's go."

Even her voice was cold, Furuo's hand supporting Basho trembled, and she turned her head tremblingly: "It doesn't matter if I get caught in the rain, I'm afraid the girl will catch a cold."

"Can't understand me?"

Fu Ruo ran over in a jerk, not daring to speak anymore.

The mountain road was muddy, but Zhu Mengzhen walked smoothly as usual, like a wild ghost wandering in the mountains, not touching the ground, not even blinking when the raindrops splashed into his eyes. follow behind.

Suddenly Zhu Mengzhen said: "It's raining heavily in the Yuan Dynasty, and the two rivers will flood, and the eastern capital will be flooded in less than nine days. You can go back and report a letter, and then go to Duanfu. If Duanfu believes Well, if you don’t believe me, don’t say anything more.”

"Flooding?" Fu Ruo was surprised, the rain was indeed heavy, but it would be too unfounded to worry about flooding. She was about to ask what happened, but she was scared away by Zhu Mengzhen's eyes.

Back in Dongdu, the streets and alleys were in chaos. Because of the sudden heavy rain, the vendors pushed their wheelbarrows and fled in all directions. Before I had time to clean up the confession case, my whole body was wet, and I could even raise fish in the incense burner.

It's so strange, it's unheard of rain in the next Lantern Festival, did the water officials forget to come to relieve the disaster?All the households were busily busy, but the grandma, who used to like to bask in the sun under the front eaves, remained motionless, shaking her head and sighing as she watched the heavy rain wet her embroidered shoes.

"Grandma, why don't you go in to shelter from the rain?" A passer-by couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to help grandma move the chair in, but she refused.

"The dragon is coming out of the abyss, the dragon is coming out of the abyss. It's useless to hide in the house. Didn't you see that tornado walking with the clouds?" God was muttering, passers-by ignored her and panicked to hide from the rain.

Grandma smiled, now worried, staring straight at the direction of Huaishi Street, thinking of the long-abandoned Dragon King Temple: "Retribution, retribution, the heavy rain flooded the Dragon King Temple, and no one in the eastern capital can escape. "

The Water Dragon King Temple in Huai Market was set up by Yue Weiyang herself. It is next to Lingbo Bridge. The terrain is not too high. It is equivalent to a plumb weight she placed at the bottom of the mountain. Once the Dragon King Temple is flooded, the invisible cotton thread will remind her , There has been no incident for thousands of years, and finally the tragedy repeats itself.

Fu Ruo went back to Zhu's house first, notified Mr. Zhu, and then went to Duan's mansion according to Zhu Mengzhen's instructions.

She hadn't had time to freshen up yet, she was still in the same clothes that rolled on the mountain road, standing at the gate of Duan's mansion in a state of embarrassment and was almost thrown out, if she hadn't met Duan Youyi and Duan Linxiang coming back from outside, she might have had a stick.

Duan Youyi has the demeanor of the eldest sister. Seeing such a naughty laizi, she only told her servants not to bleed and dirty the stone steps. Duan Linxiang was sick and weak since childhood, and she hated this kind of beating and killing. After hearing the elder sister's order, she Unable to bear it, she glanced sideways and said in surprise, "Isn't this Furuo who is next to Jianjiao? What are you doing here?"

"Miss San?" Fu Ruo seemed to be grasping at straws, "My girl has something important to report to me. I wonder if you can take me to see Master Duan."

"She is the maid next to the saint? How did you get into this look?" Duan Youyi spoke politely, but she raised her fingertips and held the embroidered handkerchief to her nose, but she was full of disgust, "Father is taking a nap at this time , if there is nothing important, I will definitely not disturb you, if your girl asks you to send any message, please let me know first, in the Duan Mansion, I will be half of the family."

Fu Ruo said: "My girl went to Mengjue Temple, and when she came out, she said that the rain would not stop, and she was afraid that there would be a flood, so she specially asked me to come and inform the Duan family to prepare early."

Duan Youyi smiled: "Mengjue Temple? That ghost temple on the mountain? It hasn't been populated for a long time. Why did your girl go there? Are the Bodhisattvas in the city not allowed to worship? I'm afraid she ran into something evil and came back talking nonsense " She said while looking at Duan Linxiang, but Duan Linxiang didn't agree.

"Did you say it yourself?"

Furuo nodded.

Duan Linxiang was thoughtful: "I see, go back and tell your girl, the Duan family will make plans earlier, thank you for her suggestion."

Duan Youyi was dissatisfied: "Do you also believe such crazy words?"

"Crazy talk? If there is no kankan, I'm afraid I won't be alive until now. I have never doubted what she said."

Zhu Mengzhen sent Furuo back to Zhu's house to go to Duan's house, but he was fine and went to Ji's house in the north of the city. He didn't talk nonsense when he came to the door, and he opened his mouth and said he wanted to find Fourth Master Xing. The master punished him to kneel in front of the hall. He heard that Zhu Mengzhen came in the rain and asked someone to set up a seat outside the hall.

Seeing him kneeling on the knees but still dishonest, Zhu Mengzhen smiled, the first time he laughed after coming out of Mengjue Temple: "Fourth Master is so elegant, and he came again to offer incense to the ancestors."

"I can't help it. My brothers are busy, so I can only do this little thing for you." He glanced at the sky and raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's raining a lot today."

"It's not small, but what I want to tell fourth master is not small, so I came here in the rain."

"What's the matter?" Ji Xuanzhen didn't turn his head back, "Could it be that my sister's whereabouts?"

Zhu Mengzhen couldn't bear to tell him that Ji Luoyu had returned to the west, and that night Zhu Minke tricked him into Zhuanxiangou and died in the swamp, which is a pity.She smiled lightly and said, "I know fourth master is worried about my sister, but I have other important things to come here today."

While speaking, a thunderbolt suddenly hit, and the loquat in front of the court was split in two in a flash, and the burnt smell was mixed with the smell of rainwater, and Ji Xuanzhen's mind went blank in an instant, waiting for him to recover When I came, I saw Zhu Mengzhen still sitting upright outside the hall, looking at him calmly.

In front of this Zhu Mengzhen, whom he didn't seem to know, it was hard to imagine that he was worried about whether Dao Lei would scare her.

"It's a pity, it's a good loquat." The tone was quite calm, but for some reason it sounded full of insensitivity.

"What did you want to say just now?"

"I want to tell fourth master that this rain will continue endlessly, and the Yiluo River will flood, and the east capital will be flooded within nine days. Fourth master, please prepare early."

"Autumn waterlogging?" Ji Xuanzhen has learned a lot from being with the old man, but this is the first time he has seen autumn locusts and autumn waterlogging in the same year. "Who told you?"

"Why, don't you believe me?"

He got up, cut off the residual fragrance in front of the hall, looked back at Zhu Mengzhen, his appearance and clothes had not changed, but for some reason, he seemed to have changed: "That's not true, I don't think the rain has any intention of stopping. Since you are here today , let me take a look at my mother by the way, she has been in poor health for a while, and she is still bedridden."

"Aunt Ji has always been in good health, why is she bedridden? Could it be because Miss Ji..."

Ji Xuanzhen interrupted her: "Probably, so try not to mention the future in front of her, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."

Zhu Mengzhen nodded, and followed him to the mistress' bedroom. There were a bunch of maidservants in the distance, but no one was waiting in front of her. Seeing that the old woman on the bed was already haggard, her complexion was sallow, her eyes were cloudy, and her limbs were weak. Zhu Mengzhen After a hasty glance, he immediately ordered: "Rehmannia glutinosa, schisandra, donkey-hide gelatin, red ginseng, decoct in water and take it..."

"It's useless, I follow this prescription every day, but I can't feed it in at all."

Zhu Mengzhen just approached and carefully checked Mrs. Ji's pulse. Indeed, she found that it wasn't as simple as mental fatigue, her body could take a while, but she didn't have the will to survive.

Mrs. Ji heard someone talking in her ear, opened her eyes in a daze, saw Zhang Jiaofen's daughter's face, thought it was Ji Luoyu who had returned, and her bony hands grabbed Zhu Mengzhen tightly: "Yu'er, you are back!" ? Mother knows you are still alive."

Zhu Mengzhen said gently: "Aunt Ji, I'm Mengzhen."

Mrs. Ji's gaze changed from excitement to anticipation, and then from anticipation to disappointment, but she was still unwilling to let go of that hand: "It turns out that she is a holy aunt. I don't know what is the purpose of coming to the humble house today."

"Fourth Master specially asked me to come here to see my aunt."

"This kid just loves to worry about it. I'm sick, and he brings me some bitter medicine all day long. He thinks I'm not disgusting enough."

The maid who delivered the medicine had already come over while talking, although Mrs. Ji didn't take it every time, but Mr. Weng made it boil every time.

"Look, look, I'm obviously in good health, but I'm fed these things all day long, retreat, retreat."

Ji Xuanzhen had a very headache, and was about to leave Maid Zhang Luo but was stopped by Zhu Mengzhen, who took the medicine bowl and said, "Let me try."

When she came to the madam's bedside, she took a sip first, then frowned suddenly: "It's really bitter, besides what I just said, there are a few heavy medicines in it, which is actually completely unnecessary." After finishing speaking, she asked for a bowl. Just mixed a spoonful of soup with white water and handed it to Mrs. Ji, "Although uncle understands the properties of the medicine, he doesn't know the severity of the pathology. Just taking one spoonful every morning and evening can stabilize the condition. It is not harmful to use some longan fermented with wine for medicine, but it can soothe the body and mind."

After listening to her gentle persuasion, Mrs. Ji still hesitated when she looked at the medicine bowl and refused to take it.

Ji Xuanzhen winked very much, and immediately ordered someone to fetch wine and longan, but Zhu Mengzhen hid behind him: "Why is my aunt still having a childish temper? Only after taking this medicine can you eat something sweet, otherwise Yeah, don't even think about it."

It's really the tone of coaxing children. I don't want Mrs. Ji to stick to it. She took the bowl and drank it with her head up. When she wiped her mouth at the end, her eyes were full of smiles: "My daughter is still sensible, not like me. Son, if you don’t worry about it, you know how to piss people off! It’s okay for others to be invisible, but this fourth child, who hangs around in front of his eyes all day long, can’t do a good job.

After speaking, his expression seemed sad, and he seemed to think of Ji Luoyu again. Zhu Mengzhen hurriedly handed over the wine and longan, and said in relief: "Auntie, what did you say, you are sick in bed, no one is more worried than fourth master, why is he still If you want to manage the big and small affairs of the family, you are already at your wits' end, so how could you cause trouble."

Mrs. Ji thought thoughtfully: "I didn't know he was so diligent, it's as if you saw it with your own eyes." After saying that, she stretched out her hand and smiled kindly at the helpless fourth son, "Thanks to the holy aunt for speaking for you today." , otherwise see how I deal with you, kneeling in the ancestral hall is definitely not enough, I have to smash your skin."

Ji Xuanzhen hurried over and took his mother's hand: "Mother, I just took some private goods away. You don't even recognize your son. You don't feel bad for beating me."

Mrs. Ji held Zhu Mengzhen with her left hand, and Ji Xuanzhen with her right hand. She looked at it, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it: "If it weren't for the holy aunt who had a marriage contract long ago, such a girl really wouldn't want to take advantage of another family. The young master of the Duan family is really lucky." Yeah." After saying that, the faces of both of them changed.

"Mom, what are you talking about? I think you've been lying in bed for too long and you're sick and confused. Let me help you lie down."

Zhu Mengzhen also took out his hand, took three steps back and stood still, without shame or anger.

Mr. Ji had been standing at the door for a while, and saw that his wife had taken the medicine, and his face that had been cloudy for many days finally cleared up. Suddenly, he heard her nonsense, with mixed emotions in his heart, and quietly pulled Ji Xuanzhen aside: "Holy shit!" When did you come here?"

"Noon."

"The last time she used lynching, she didn't care about the past and was willing to see a doctor for your mother?"

"Holy aunt, holy aunt, her heart is naturally not equal to ordinary goods." Having said that, Ji Xuanzhen also vigilantly nodded, "Actually, she came here recently for another matter."

"What's the matter?"

"Autumn waterlogging, said that the rain will not stop, the two rivers of Yiluo will be flooded in autumn waterlogging, and the eastern capital will be flooded within nine days, let us prepare early, I am still considering whether this is true or not, father, it is up to you What do you see?"

Mr. Ji’s eyes were hale and hearty, and he looked at the heavy rain outside the window, and the thick clouds could not see the sky: “It’s really rare to see heavy rain during the Lantern Festival. I’ve lived so long, but I’ve never encountered it once. report, then it is better to believe it than to believe it, or plan to get up."

"The Ji family's dozens of relatives are easy to talk about, but what about the goods in the warehouse and the fields at the foot of the mountain?"

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable. It is a blessing to be able to save your life. You can take care of others if you can. If you can't take care of it, you can only accept your fate."

"Yes, I'm going to find my brother right now."

"Also, since the news of the holy aunt has reached our Ji family, we can't hide anything. Tell the guys under your command that they know that if they are willing to stay and help, they will be rewarded. Send the money and let them go, adversity knows the heart, we can't let the guys feel cold."

"understood."

Ji Xuanzhen went to Zhang Luo in the rain, passed by Dong'an Hall, saw Mr. Zhu sitting in the town in person, and had already posted a notice that due to the approaching autumn waterlogging, Dong'an Hall would close its doors to thank guests from today, so as to inform the people of Dongdu , What should be cleaned up, what should be escaped.

It is not easy to move the whole family to the mountains. If the autumn flood is true, the original house will naturally be lost, and even a lot of livestock will have to be given up. To be honest, the disaster brought by autumn floods to Dongdu is devastating.

Yawangjun squatted under the banana tree, listening to the irritated rain, he didn't know what to do: "Yangyang, are you rash in revealing Zhu Mengzhen's card just for the sake of tipping off the news?"

"Reporting the letter is a trivial matter. I will revoke her fairy status sooner or later. This card will be revealed anyway." Yue Weiyang wiped the red sword in her hand, her expression was calm, like the calm before the storm, and she had to do it later. Big deal.

"I know you hate Zhu Mengzhen, but your desire for revenge will inevitably backfire. You once said that you want her to fall in love with you, which is the second of eight bitter things, but you don't know that she has long since lost her obsession with Duan Shiqing, and even reported a letter first. The Ji family, the Zhu family and the Ji family have all made preparations now, but the Duan family has not done anything so far, obviously they don't believe it, and Zhu Mengzhen didn't intend to let them believe it, and made it clear that they wanted to take advantage of natural disasters and man-made disasters to destroy the Duan family."

"Are you blaming me?"

"I don't blame you, I just think that if she doesn't know her past life, she won't be malicious towards Duan Shiqing, but now that she knows, she won't let Ji Luoyu and Duan Shiqing go. Die, otherwise it will be another bloodbath."

"Wouldn't it be nice for her to break up the Duan family?"

"Yang Yang, you are a writer. How can you be afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Besides, even if she breaks up the Duan family, it will be of no benefit to you. If you don't have the love of your heart, what can you ask for? Your painstaking efforts may be wasted. "

As soon as the words fell, he seemed to understand something, and took a breath: "Ji, Ji Xuanzhen!"

Yue Weiyang nodded lightly, as if the matter had nothing to do with her: "When everything is settled, Xueer will return to Dongdu, to Ji's house, and then the truth will be revealed, and there will be nothing to deceive or use. Concealment, the marriage between Ji Xuanzhen and Zhu Mengzhen has no knots, but regrets that there is a fruit on the vine, and there will always be blood."

"You have already planned everything, I just want to know when the dust will settle?" Ya Wangjun was worried, and he never saw the previous cynicism.

Yue Weiyang looked at the sky in the distance, and the clouds were densely covered like the dust and sand raised by thousands of galloping horses, covering the sky and the earth. She counted with her fingers, and suddenly smiled: "Nine hundred and ninety-nine years, only nine days away, the master will complete his merits and virtues. On the ninth day, did you know that the light of Buddha will shine on Longshou Peak at that time."

Lord Yawang was about to say something when he suddenly heard someone talking in Sao Yuxuan. Originally, only Ji Luoyu was left to clean there, but she didn't know who she saw, but she said, "Why are you? I asked Greedy Wolf for instructions before coming here." Is it you?"

Yue Weiyang and Yawangjun are on alert, it seems that Sao Yuxuan has some great guests.
