6.

There is a heavy building in the temple, and a person in a plain gray robe leans lightly on the carved red pillar and looks at it.Faint candlelight, faint Zen sounds, in the gate of the temple, a monk kneeling on a futon and devoting himself to practice is piously bowing his head in front of the Buddha.

Putting down the green pendant in his hand, Shi Xiaolou put it back into his cuffs, took a few steps forward, and asked with a smile to the monk in the hall, "Brother Mo, what wish did you ask the Buddha for?"

The monk crouched in front of the Buddha statue and stood up. Hearing the words of the people in front of the door, his expression did not change.

"The Great Dao?" Shi Xiaolou shook his head in disapproval when he heard the words, "Brother Mo, you have too many entanglements in the world of mortals, I'm afraid it will be difficult to become a Buddhist Dao." Turn around, and said with a smile, "Why don't you return to the vulgar, wander around with me, and see the smoke and clouds in the world, wouldn't it be pleasant? Life is just like morning dew. Why don't you enjoy yourself in time?"

"You don't understand." The Buddhist beads rolled in the monk's hands are still rolling, and there is an indifference in his expression that Shi Xiaolou can't see, "You are a person in the world, if you dislike the poverty in this temple, you can leave. It doesn't matter if you want to be wanton or carefree, but don't cause trouble. My heart is for the Buddha, and I don't want to be tainted with the affairs of the world."

"You!" Shi Xiaolou lost his strength for a moment, holding the finger of the temple door, he dug a hole in the smooth mahogany. He had stayed in this ancient temple for more than half a month at this time, and Mo Kang was suddenly moved in his heart. As soon as Nan's words were provocative, I just felt very uncomfortable in my heart, "Is the matter of Si Ming a blow to you so much? Why are you so full of eyes on her?! Turn around and see if I can't do it. I'm still where I am. Wait for you!"

"enough!"

The monk suddenly turned his head, with a gloomy look in his eyes: "Xiaolou, I don't want to argue with you about the right and wrong in the world of mortals. Now I just want to find a safe place. You go, don't come again Bothering me..."

It was like a sharpest knife, slashing fiercely at the softest part.Shi Xiaolou felt that half of his totem was burning again.But he really didn't want to show weakness in front of this person, so he ran out stumblingly, clutching his cheeks that were getting hot and painful.

……

Shi Xiaolou once remembered that after the Hualou incident, he never saw Mo Kangnan again for more than half a year.

Until one day, Shao Yu asked him to accompany a scholar who spent a lot of money on a cruise during the day.

What the scholar had chartered was a painting boat on the Fengdu River. When Fengdu River traveled to Linan Street, Shi Xiaolou, who was lazily lying on the small couch in the boat, was attracted by the festive sound of blowing and beating.

The poet saw that the beauty he had finally invited looked listless and quite at a loss.Suddenly seeing that the beauty was interested in the sound of blowing and beating on the shore, she recruited the boy on the board to ask when it happened.

"Returning to the master, today is the day when the King of Lingnan married his bride. The sound of blowing and beating outside means that the welcoming team of the King of Lingnan is welcoming the new princess back from Mo's house!"

"Oh? But the Mo family in Lingnan?" The scholar patted his fan, puzzled, "I vaguely remember that the Mo family's descendants are all romantic and handsome sons, when did a young lady come out?"

"Hey," the young man knew a lot, "Master doesn't know. Although the new princess is married from the Mo family, she is not from the Mo family. She is originally the daughter of the mother of the Mo family. I don't know why. , rented to Mo's house a year ago."

"I see." The poet nodded.

But at this time, Shi Xiaolou's voice sounded softly in the painting boat: "But I asked this little brother, is the new princess called Si Ming?"

"Exactly." The boy looked up and saw the beauty's true face, and couldn't help being in a trance for a while.

In the end, Mo Ke kicked the boy out.

Picking up a jug of wine that was placed on the table, Shi Xiaolou straightened up unsteadily, gave the scholar a big smile, "Take me outside to have a look."

"Okay." The scholar responded, only raising his hand to lead the beauty out.

But Shi Xiaolou seemed to be shaking, but he cleverly avoided the scholar's support.When he came to the door of the painting boat, Shi Xiaolou raised the gauze scarf hanging from his ear to cover his face.

This is what Shao Yu told him every day in the flower building, but now it has become a habit.

The wind on the boat was a bit strong, blowing the small stone building embroidered with peonies like a grand feast of flowers, and everyone on the boat was stunned for a while.

On the bank of the river, the wedding procession is still slowly moving.The handsome and extraordinary man was riding a tall horse, wearing a bright red corsage in front of him, his expression was bright, and there was a smile on his face.Behind him is a sedan chair carried by eight people. The sedan chair is embroidered with cloud patterns and flowers, and two mandarin ducks with wings flutteringly reflect each other. When the sedan chair is swaying, a slender and graceful figure is vaguely revealed behind the red curtain.

Shi Xiaolou recognized at a glance that it was the woman he had met in the restaurant.

However, a trace of doubt flashed across Shi Xiaolou's eyes, and he always felt that something was wrong.

The Lingnan King's wedding team was very large, and the painting boat slowly swam along the river with the team, only to see a slightly embarrassed man rushing out of the crowd watching the relatives on the bank.

Shi Xiaolou looked at the man, eyes full of astonishment.How could that person become so embarrassed!

The wind on the river was a bit strong, Shi Xiaolou couldn't help but gather up his front skirt which was blown a little messy.

"Ming'er!" Mo Kangnan finally rushed to the bright red sedan chair, ignoring the pointing faces of the people around him, and just looked at the sedan chair door beggingly, "Mo marry..."

The King of Lingnan, who was on a tall horse in front of him, had already turned his horse's head, and looked at Mo Kangnan in surprise.

"Ming'er..." Mo Kangnan almost rushed into the sedan chair and took the bride away.

"Kangnan!" Lingnan King's face was full of displeasure. Even though the two were sworn brothers, he couldn't accept that the sworn brothers tried to take the bride away on his big day!

"..." Mo Kangnan finally restrained his impulse, he knew that everyone was looking at him like a joke.But he still couldn't help but want to ask the person in the sedan chair, "Why?"

"Why?" A delicate female voice came out from the sedan chair, with a hint of coquettish charm in its softness, "I only have Wan Teng in my heart from the beginning to the end. Cousin Mo, are you here to rob your relatives?"

"...Cousin Mo?" Mo Kangnan paled for a moment, and the alienated emotion in Si Ming's words almost made him covered in wind, frost, rain and snow. With trembling hands, he took out a piece of green Huan Peilai, "You once told me that this is the only person who shared a white head. Could it be that it's all fake?"

"..." There was a silence in the sedan chair.

"Kangnan, have you had enough trouble!" Lingnan Wang Lang said, he winked at the guards around him, and asked people to come forward and restrain Mo Kangnan.

Stepping forward on his horse, the King of Lingnan said with a gloomy face, "You have gone too far today!"

"I'm going too far?" Mo Kangnan was pressed down by the guards, his head was lowered, and he couldn't see the expression on his face. He just repeated, "I'm going too far? I'm going too far... Isn't it you! You know that Si Ming and I have been dating since we were young. In-laws! You are my brother! How could you snatch her from me?"

"Si Ming doesn't like you." Lingnan King looked at Mo Kangnan and said, "I can't let her lose her happiness."

Mo Kangnan's hand holding the ring pendant tightened even more... Can't he give her happiness?

"Continue to open the way!" The Lingnan King saw that Mo Kangnan seemed to have calmed down, and only let the welcoming team continue to open the way towards the palace.He rode on the horse without looking at the downcast man with his head down, until the procession of welcoming the bride disappeared before Mo Kangnan's eyes.

The passers-by around gradually dispersed from the crowded state. Mo Kangnan didn't care about those people's pointing and pointing, but sat down slowly by a willow by the river.

"If I can't give you happiness, then I just need to guard you and see you happy." He muttered to himself, but threw the ring he was holding tightly into the river, " This thing, this thing...you don't want it, it doesn't matter."

Watching the ring pendant sink into the bottom of the river, he lowered his head and covered his eyes, as if crying.

On the boat in the river, Shi Xiaolou stared blankly at the man.He doesn't understand love, he doesn't understand men's emotions.It's just that ring pendant... such a precious thing for a man, to throw it away just like that...

As soon as he waved his hand, the ring pendant that sank into the bottom of the river was wrapped in demon power, and it appeared in Shi Xiaolou's cuff in the next second.

If he sees a man again next time, he can give this ring to him.Shi Xiaolou thought so.

……

"boom--"

In the gazebo, Shi Xiaolou couldn't help but half leaned against the stone bench. He let go of the ring pendant in his hand, and it fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

"It doesn't matter if it's broken, it doesn't matter if it's broken." Shi Xiaolou looked at it, and suddenly a pale smile appeared on his burning cheeks, "It's something that doesn't belong to me, why force it?"

There was a familiar sound of footsteps behind him, Shi Xiaolou's body stiffened when he heard it.

"Xiaolou, are you sick again?" The voice behind was a little anxious.

Shi Xiaolou turned his head away, as expected it was the monk.

Standing up from the stone bench pretending to be innocent, Shi Xiaolou just smiled stiffly: "It was just that my foot slipped..."

"That's it, it's fine if nothing happens." The monk put away the panic on his face, coughed in a low voice, and said with some embarrassment, "I was in the temple just now, and I went too far. You are still seriously ill now. It is clean, it is a good place to recuperate, you just stay in meditation..."

"En." Shi Xiaolou responded in a low voice, clenched his hands under the cuffs tightly.

"Then, I'll go back to the temple to do my homework, you..." The monk looked at Shi Xiaolou's pale face, and said softly, "Take good care of yourself."

After saying that, he wanted to turn around and leave.

"Brother Mo..." Shi Xiaolou subconsciously wanted to stop the monk's leaving figure, but unexpectedly stepped on the broken ring under his foot, making a crisp sound.

The monk turned his head and fixed his eyes on Shi Xiaolou's feet.

"...Why is this ring pendant with you?"

At that moment, Shi Xiaolou looked at the unbelievably gloomy and questioning look on the monk's face.

The whole person is like falling into an ice cellar.
