Obsession [Quick Transmigration]

It was almost evening when Jiang Mu returned to Jingzhou Mansion. He went into Zhao's Escort Bureau to check around, and finally found a clue in the kitchen.

It was a small pile of unused firewood, very inconspicuous among the many piles of firewood, but Jiang Mu still found it. This thing looks very ordinary and looks nothing special, but in fact it is a unique Fragrant wood.

Jiang Mu suspected that this was one of the "poisons" that controlled Zhao's [-] mouths, and what the old lady said, maybe Ma Zhengming just came to beg for food at that time, and he continued to go crazy outside after eating, but because the sound of the piano was the same Hit the trick.

When he finished packing and went back, it was almost dusk. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Mu saw Xuan Ying sitting under the gazebo with his back leaning against a pillar.

Ma Zhengming was not seen in the courtyard, so Jiang Mu walked over and said, "What is Master worrying about here, why don't you tell me?"

He still had that breezy appearance, and his tone was very plain. Xuan Ying turned his head and looked at him a little seriously. The other party's eyes had always been beautiful and clear like glass, but now they suddenly darkened for some reason. Many, Jiang Mu even felt that such Xuanying was a little strange.

But soon, that feeling disappeared, and the person standing in front of him was still that holy and elegant monk.

Xuanying smiled lightly, and told him about the day's events: "Benefactor Ma is recovering relatively well, but his body is still too weak. He just ate and went to sleep again."

Jiang Mu nodded slightly: "With you taking care of him, I can rest assured. What I want to ask is, what's wrong with you?"

Xuanying looked away: "I don't have anything to think about. There are a few things that I find suspicious about the Zhao Family Escort this time, but I can't explain the details. By the way, Brother Yan didn't come back with you? How's the situation today?"

Jiang Mu shook his head: "I didn't find the stamen. I heard from the people in Chunfenglou that she had quietly redeemed herself and left half a month ago. Now she is missing. Master Yan and the six doors are going to track down the whereabouts of the stamen. Stay put."

"That's fine too."

"Ah."

Jiang Mu didn't tell about Muchai, but he told Wu Yun about it when he entered the mansion, and the other party took it very seriously, but since Hua Rui hadn't seen it yet, it's still not suitable for outsiders to know about it.

The two of them didn't speak any more, Xuanying stood with her eyes downcast, and the string of Buddhist beads hanging in her hand was slowly played, and the gazebo fell silent for a moment.

After a while, Jiang Mu suggested: "Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Xuan Ying raised her eyes and looked at him: "Okay."

Perhaps it was because of the exhaustion of running around for the past few days, which was different from what was expected. The two of them were silent all the way, and neither of them opened their mouths to say anything, as if they were not even interested in talking for a while.

The difference between them is that the scenery at this time is still very beautiful, the setting sun is like blood in the sky, and the sky is covered with sunset glow.

Jiang Mu slightly raised his head and looked at the distant horizon, suddenly thinking that there are not many leisurely moments like now. To be precise, he came to this world after he met Xuanying, and he has been busy like a top, forced to deal with all kinds of problems. Emergencies.

There are not many opportunities to enjoy the scenery with a peaceful mind like now. To be honest, an outsider like him is not as good as Yan Jieshu, the hero who flies around all kinds of events all day. strangeness.

The location of Jingzhou Mansion is not in the center of the city, but on top of a hill. When the two of them reached the city below the hill, it was already getting dark.

Even so, the city is still very lively, with bright lights and heavy traffic.

The two walked slowly side by side, when they passed by the river bank, Xuan Ying suddenly stopped.

Jiang Mu tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xuan Ying pointed to the river surface not far away: "Someone will release river lanterns at this time of year? It's interesting."

Jiang Mu turned his head and looked, there were indeed river lanterns floating on the river over there, and the flickering candles were very beautiful.

"Perhaps the customs are different."

"Follow me." Xuan Ying gently pulled his arm, motioning him to follow down the steps.

After a while, the two stood on the bank and watched these river lanterns drifting along the river, the flickering candlelight reflected in their eyes, shining brightly.

Xuan Ying looked at it and suddenly chuckled, as if thinking of something interesting.

"The poor monk also let go of the river lantern when he was a child, and he was still with the master at that time."

"Master Dening?" Jiang Mu unconsciously thought about the person who was still in the Buddhist sect, "It's a little unexpected that the scene, the master has always looked serious."

Xuan Ying's eyes curved slightly: "Actually, the poor monk can't remember now."

"Then do you want to put another one?" Jiang Mu asked.

Xuan Ying shook her head lightly, her gestures showed her refusal, but her expression was inexplicable and sad.

Humans are always a little hypocritical and sad at certain moments.

"It's not good for practice if you don't agree with your heart."

Jiang Mu said something to him, then turned around and came to a small stall on the bank. There were no ready-made river lanterns here, so he had to buy materials and make them on the spot. Fortunately, the process was not complicated.

Xuan Ying came over, looked at Jiang Mu who was busy working for him, and asked aloud, "Isn't it troublesome to do this?"

"But there is no ready-made one. It is said that making it yourself will be more effective, probably because... it is more pious."

He changed the subject to answer Xuan Ying's question. In fact, Jiang Mu was usually very patient with his taskers, and his patience was beyond that of ordinary people.

Satisfying their trivial wishes in life can sometimes help the undead get rid of the shackles of their own obsessions and get out of the sea of ​​suffering. Jiang Mu wants to complete his tasks more smoothly, and at the same time, he also wants Xuan Ying to suffer less , It is the best result to be able to see it for yourself, and don't get into any entanglements.

When he got back to the river, Xuanying saw that he had folded one after three times, five times and two divisions. Looking at the movements, he felt that he had done this kind of thing before, so he passed the other one over. Jiang Mu looked sideways: "Don't you Will it be folded?"

Xuanying didn't speak but just looked at him quietly, his glass-like eyes reflected the stars around him, Jiang Mu took those with lowered eyes, and soon a new river lantern appeared in his hand.

Place the candles, light them, and send two small river lanterns to set sail.

Xuanying looked at these, and after the river lantern went away, he clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and made a wish to the river lantern like the people around him, although the content of it was unknown.

And Jiang Mu just stared at the river lantern lightly, with neither sad nor happy expression, apparently he didn't believe it.

*

Xuan Ying was in a daze a lot today, Jiang Mu was staring at the other party, his expression was calm, but he stretched out his hand but flicked some river water and threw it at Xuan Ying's face.

The movement was so fast that Xuan Ying didn't dodge in time, with drops of water on his face, he looked at him blankly and innocently.

"What wish did the master just make?"

Xuan Ying said in a daze, "I hope everything goes well."

Jiang Mu: "Then you shouldn't say it, it won't work if you say it."

Xuan Ying pursed her lips: "You asked me."
