The next day, Master really went to collect herbs.

When Shi Yin saw the little novice standing next to the master with a small bamboo basket on his back, he felt a little headache and asked, "Master, why are you..."

The master took the little novice by the hand and said deliberately: "What about me?"

The little novice couldn't understand half of what they said, but happily called Shi Yin: "Brother, let's go quickly! Master finally agreed to take me to the mountains to collect herbs!"

Looking at the little novice, Shi Yin had no choice but to nod and agree: "Let's go."

He didn't expect that Master Master would now learn to use others as barriers.

Of course it is a smart move to bring a little novice.

The master looked at Shi Yin quite proudly, and pulled the little novice away first.

Shi Yin shook his head, picked up the medicine basket brought by Master Master and followed.

Day after day, the abbot only showed up once on the night he came back, and then disappeared. The master was not in a hurry, and only took the little novice and Shi Yin up the mountain to collect medicine every day.

There are not many herbs collected, it is just to give the little novice a break.

Shi Yin followed behind and watched, not in a hurry.

He knew it.

What's more, Master is not in a hurry, whether it's true or just pretending——Shi Yin pursed his lips and gave a faint smile, turned his back, only when he didn't see Master, he looked at the movement of coming over uneasy from time to time .

At the end of another day, the medicine basket was still empty, only filled with two or three herbs, dangling.

The twilight is all together, and the sky is gradually darkening.

The three masters and apprentices packed up and went down the mountain. The master still led the little novice and walked in front, and Shi Yin followed behind.

While walking, Shi Yin suddenly asked: "Master, why haven't you seen the abbot these days?"

The master took the young novice by the hand, without stopping or looking back, he replied naturally: "He has something to do, and he will be back in two days."

Shi Yin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

At night, Shi Yin didn't feel sleepy, so he opened the window and saw the moonlight shining on the courtyard, holding his hand on the edge of the frame, and couldn't help but think of A Luan that night.

But right now is not a good time.

In two days, he was about to leave for Beijing, but the master had no intention of speaking, and the abbot didn't know where he went, and he never showed up.

Although he became a monk, it should be the same everywhere - but Qingquan Temple is different after all.

Thinking about it, Shi Yin put on his coat, opened the door and went out for a stroll in the temple.

Everywhere is familiar.

He lives alone in Qingquan Temple, but his movements are not restricted like in Daxing Temple. He has been to every place in the temple.

Walking Xu Xing all the way, it just happened to arrive at the master's residence, and it happened that the light was still on in the master's house, so Shi Yin walked over.

But before he got close, Shi Yin heard the voice from inside the room.

After concentrating on it, it was the voice of the abbot and the master.

Master suppressed his voice, as if he didn't want to be heard, but his voice was still not low: "Brother, what are you talking about?! The capital... absolutely impossible! I won't..."

The abbot didn't deliberately lower it: "You and I are both witnesses to what happened back then."

The master said something later, but the voice was lowered, and he couldn't hear clearly.

But in the meantime it brought Shi Yin.

Hearing his name, the master frowned unknowingly, but he stopped listening, but immediately turned around and went back to the abode.

It is beyond his ability to spy on the elder's private affairs.

What's more, if what the master and the abbot said is related to him, then he will know it anyway.

The night passed.

The next day, in the early morning, Shi Yin saw the master coming in, but he didn't see the little novice, so he had a clue in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he just asked: "Master, are you going to gather medicine today?"

The master looked serious: "Yes, come with me quickly."

Seeing this, Shi Yin nodded and said no more.

The master and apprentice went up the mountain without a word, and then stood on the mountainside. Before Shi Yin could speak, the master took out a burden.

Shi Yin looked at the burden, then went to see Master, and asked, "Master, what does this mean?"

The master gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Shi Yin, follow your plan and run away!"

Shi Yin was slightly startled: "What?"

The master passed the burden forward and said, "Hurry up and go as far as possible. Don't go to the capital, and don't go back to Jinzhou. Just pretend you never knew this place, so go!"

Shi Yin didn't answer, just looked at Master and called, "Master."

The master's eyes were full of complex emotions: "If I knew it was him... then I would never have agreed to your going to the capital! But now... it's already like this, and I can't help it..."

"We cannot afford to wade through the muddy waters of the capital... If you go, you will only be swallowed, leaving no bones left!"

Shi Yin frowned: "Master..."

The master grabbed Shi Yin's hand and handed him the burden, his cheeks tensed, as if he was enduring: "Listen to Master and go. If you don't leave today, then you won't have another chance... "

Shi Yin finally took over the burden, but he didn't intend to leave. He looked at the master with calm eyes: "Master, tell me who my biological parents are, and I will leave."

When the master heard the words, his already restless expression became more and more flustered: "You! Why do you ask this?!"

Shi Yin continued to ask: "And that piece of red jade, whose property is it?"

When the master heard the word "Hongyu", his face suddenly turned pale: "Don't ask! Shi Yin, don't ask..."

Shi Yin said, "I sent that piece of red jade away."

"You!" Hearing this sentence, the master's mood became even more unstable, and he almost shouted: "How can you send Hongyu away?!"

"That's what your mother left you! That's the only thing that can prove your identity!!"

Shi Yin nodded and said, "I guessed it too. So, I gave it to someone."

"If nothing else happens, people who know that piece of ruby ​​will find me sooner or later."

The master was almost heartbroken: "That ruby ​​is!"

"What is it?" Shi Yin looked at the master and asked him, "What is it?"

The master closed his eyes, leaned against the tree slumped, and didn't say a word.

Shi Yin looked at Master, he actually didn't want to persecute Master.

"If you want to leave, this is your chance." The abbot, who hadn't seen anyone for many days, suddenly came out, looking at Shi Yin with a sharp gaze: "Where the world is going, leave immediately, and never come back."

Shi Yin pursed his lower lip and said, "I can't go."

He has already promised to return to the cloud and return to the rain, and he will return to Daxing Temple in ten days.

Furthermore, he still has an agreement with A Luan.

He can't go.

The abbot seemed to have seen through Shi Yin's intentions, and a gust of cold wind blew over, carrying his Zen robe flying: "If you don't leave, then don't ask any more questions."

Shi Yin frowned: "But that ruby..."

The abbot stopped him: "Your master and I have made an oath at the beginning, and we will never reveal anything related to this."

Shi Yin understood: "Then you teach me..."

The abbot paused for a moment, but still answered Shi Yin's words: "Teaching you is also within the oath, and it is only our duty..."

The master shouted: "Senior brother!"

The abbot looked at the master, his eyes were completely calm: "Du Yi, he should know these things."

The master couldn't accept it: "Now it's like this, what can he do if he knows?!"

The abbot didn't answer, but just looked away and looked in one direction. After a long time, he said slowly, "The emperor has returned to Beijing."

The author has something to say:

It started when I went back, it didn't take long, probably, um
