America's strong and miserable desire to destroy the world

The spring of Dayan's 26th year.

It has been four years since Wen's daughter came to the throne, and the county governors who were unwilling to try to separate the regime finally died down after seeing Wen's vigorous methods, and Dayan, which was turbulent at first, gradually returned to peace.

Early spring is a good time for dignitaries from all walks of life to go to Lingjing Temple to offer incense.

I saw that the inn at the foot of Lingjing Mountain was full of all kinds of businessmen and family members of officials, including a few monks who came down from the temple to eat vegetarian food.Everyone looked very peaceful, but at this moment, a thin figure suddenly rushed out of the inn, and at the same time a young monk chased after him.

"Ah! My money!"

It's hard to imagine that someone would dare to steal things under the Lingjing Temple.The people who stayed in the inn shook their heads one after another. You must know that after the Wen family became emperor, all places were strictly controlled, and the number of staff in the government office increased a lot. If you catch it, you turn around and send it to the yamen.

Even if you take advantage of the current season of heavy crowds to steal, you will not get good results.

The little monk who was chasing someone had the same idea, he was out of breath, and tried to persuade him: "Hey! Don't-huh, don't run away, give me back my money, I won't hold you accountable, or-- "

"What else?"

Suddenly there was a fluttering sound next to his ear, and the little monk looked around in surprise, but there was no one around him except the back of the thief in front of him.Strange, where does the sound come from?

He boldly said: "Otherwise, if you catch the yamen, you will be punished severely! You must know that I am a disciple of the abbot of Lingjing Temple, but it was stolen from me—"

However, before he could finish speaking, the unknown voice sounded again, "Hahahaha! I didn't expect that after four years, little monk, you still have the same posture of pretending to be a tiger."

Before the little monk realized that the person who came to him knew him, he saw the thief who was running away in front of him was suddenly kicked down by someone, and the knight who saw the injustice and drew his sword to help looked at him with a smile.

The little monk was dumbfounded: "It's you!"

Holding a folding fan, the suave knight-errant Wen Qiusheng nodded reservedly, "Yes, it's me."

The thief was lying on the ground holding his knees and crying, the little monk took back the money bag neatly, and looked at Qiu Sheng jokingly after seeing him.

"How? You used to steal other people's things, but now it's someone else who steals your things. The Buddha said that you are right. You plant good causes and you get good results, and you sow evil causes and you get bad results. It's not like you don't repay what you repay." The time has not come."

"I! I've already corrected it," the little monk became furious, "Master has said that, knowing the mistakes can make a big difference."

"The sharp teeth haven't changed." Wen Qiusheng smiled leisurely, "Aren't you guarding the temple at Wuyun Temple? Why did you come to Lingjing Temple?"

Speaking of this, the little monk became annoyed, "Master said that the people who should wait have already arrived, and said that I can choose where to go. I have nowhere to go, so I came to Lingjing Temple."

He still hasn't figured out who the person should be, obviously he has been waiting in Wuyun Temple for several years, but he has never waited for a person to be ordained in the temple.

"Your master is interesting, how about—"

Wen Qiusheng's voice paused slightly, and he closed his folding fan, avoiding the sneak attack behind him.His sharp eyes fell on the exasperated thief. After traveling for four years, he also learned some three-legged cat kung fu from Xue Wunian, so it would not be a problem to catch a thief by taking advantage of others.

But why is this little thief so overwhelmed today, and even resorted to using a knife, this time the crime of theft cannot be settled.

Wen Qiusheng pondered for a moment, then pressed the hidden weapon bag on his waist with his right hand.

But before he could make a move, he saw the thief approaching suddenly with dull eyes, and then he fell headfirst in front of Wen Qiusheng.Wen Qiusheng looked down, and saw a green leaf tied on the back of the other party, but within a moment, the green leaf was stained red with blood.

But the murderer who picked the leaves to kill had an indifferent expression, leaping down from the eaves, his eyes turned into tenderness after touching Wen Qiusheng.

Xue Wunian explained in a gentle voice, "At the foot of Buddhism, it is not easy to kill."

So it was just a lesson, the thief is not dead, is he?

Wen Qiusheng was a little helpless, Xue Wunian's slightly hostile temperament had changed a lot in the past four years, he asked him the reason, and said that he wanted to accumulate blessings for Wen Qiusheng, so he wanted to kill less.

In the past few years, they also encountered many people who spoke badly to them, saying that Xue Wunian was not good, and he didn't do it because he wanted to kill less people, but if he dared to say something bad about Wen Qiusheng, Xue Wunian would immediately turn his face and be ruthless .

Speaking of which, this little thief was lucky to have picked a good time and a good place.

Wen Qiusheng glanced at the stunned young monk with a smile, and urged, "Lead the way, young monk, we are going up the mountain to offer incense today, so don't waste the good time."

"Oh, good! Good!"

When I came to Lingjing Temple again, time has passed.Wen Qiusheng looked at the stone steps on the mountain road and knocked on Xue Wunian's back. Xue Wunian bent down tacitly to lift him up, and he heard a soft hum of satisfaction from the person behind him.

The indifferent eyes also softened.

Wen Qiusheng spent all his time lying on Xue Wunian's back, making trouble for others from time to time, having a great time.Because of the height, he could see farther. Before reaching the temple, he crossed the high wall of the temple and saw monks sweeping the floor inside a red wall.

One of the monks has a gentle demeanor, and looks very familiar from a distance.

Wen Qiusheng was about to ask who was there, when he heard the little monk's surprised voice, "Master, why did you come out?"

Abbot of Lingjing Temple?

Wen Qiusheng immediately put away his thoughts and looked curiously. This was the first time he had seen the abbot of Lingjing Temple. What kind of a holy monk, who has always been known as being able to discover secrets, looked like?

In fact, he looked no different from ordinary people, but his breath was more peaceful, as if nothing around him could break his state of mind.

The abbot smiled slightly, "I heard that the benefactor has an invitation, and the benefactor has been waiting for a long time."

"The abbot really knows everything, even the purpose of my coming here."

Facing Wen Qiusheng's temptation, the abbot was noncommittal and only gently led them to the temple.

Wen Qiusheng saw Wei Xun in the wing room, the abbot and others left the place for them and left, Xue Wunian also left the room under Wen Qiusheng's urging.Only then did Wen Qiusheng have the time to look carefully at the person he hadn't seen for a long time.

Four years have passed, Wei Xun has become thinner and thinner, and his pale face in the past has become more and more bloodless now.

He leaned on the couch and couldn't get up, so he could only smile apologetically, "Qiu Sheng came here from a long distance, please forgive me for being rude, I can't get up to entertain old friends."

Four years ago Wei Xun insisted on pushing Wen Shan to the throne under the questioning eyes of the people around him. After Wen Shan proclaimed himself emperor, the courtiers all thought that he would become the greatest hero and be promoted.Unexpectedly, he resigned as soon as the Queen's government was stabilized, and since then retreated to Lingjing Temple to ignore world affairs.

This time, Wen Qiusheng was only passing by Jiangnan before he heard Miracle Doctor Wei talk about the current situation in the capital.Wei Xun's health is getting worse and worse, and he may not be able to survive this spring.

After a while of silence, Wei Xun looked sad, and suddenly said, "Qiu Sheng, actually I have something that I haven't told you all this time."

At first he was afraid, but after Wen Qiusheng left, he also lost his chance.

"I know." Wen Qiusheng's expression was very indifferent, "Actually, I knew it a long time ago."

What?Wei Xun raised his head in shock. Ever since he knew Wen Qiusheng had returned to the capital, he had been making psychological preparations day and night. He just wanted to tell him the secret buried in his heart before he died. What would happen afterwards, whether he would be hated or hated? will accept it frankly.

But... how could Wen Qiusheng know about it?

"I once got a list written by Mrs. Meng himself, which contained most of the people involved in the portrait." Wen Qiusheng paused slightly, "Your name is among them."

And the news he sent to Qianqiu Pavilion finally fell into the hands of Wei Xun, not Xue Wunian.It also means that Qianqiu Pavilion is under Wei Xun's control, and it's no wonder that after he was invited by the pavilion owner to paint in Qianqiu Pavilion, the pavilion owner would ask him about Wei Xun's rumors.

Facing Wen Qiusheng's calm gaze, Wei Xun felt ashamed, "Then why didn't you..."

He couldn't go on.Although he was not the chief culprit like Meng Taifu, he was also an accomplice who watched. He knew that the hatred in Wen Qiusheng's heart was overwhelming at the beginning. Those people Wen Qiusheng wanted to kill, so why did he leave him alone?

His unfinished words did not hinder Wen Qiusheng's understanding.

In fact, Wen Qiusheng also thought about it many times. When he first discovered this fact, he also thought about whether to add Wei Xun to the death toll, but in the end, he still gave up.

"Maybe it's because you are different. Those people are all for profit and selfishness, but you are only for the world. Just like when the second sister proclaimed the emperor, those people only saw the glory of their family's decline in the future, And what you saw was Dayan of Guotai Minan, you have no selfishness."

Wei Xun bowed his head in silence, and when Wen Qiusheng left for the last time, he caught a glimpse of a gleam of water streaming down his face.

Wen Qiusheng closed the door, sighing slightly.

Wei Xun is indeed different from those people.They pursue ambition and profit, even if they know that they are doing evil, they have no psychological burden, but Wei Xun will suffer from inner torment because of this, and because of this, he will be depressed and his body will decline.

"What's the matter?" Xue Wunian asked worriedly, seeing the gloomy look in Qiusheng's eyes.

"It's nothing, just recalling the past, a little sad." Wen Qiusheng shook his head.

In fact, he could have solved Wei Xun's knot before leaving Beijing, but he didn't, so he really hated it a bit.

"Then we will change our route and leave Beijing tomorrow, don't stay here." Xue Wunian frowned.

Compared to Wen Qiusheng, Xue Wunian didn't like the capital even more, he couldn't see Wen Qiusheng sad.

"Okay, I'll be leaving in a few days, and I'll go see my second sister before I leave." Wen Qiusheng laughed.

Xue Wunian nodded, seeing that Qiusheng didn't seem to be out of his sadness yet, he talked about the interesting things he heard on the road, his tone of trying to learn from the storyteller made Wen Qiusheng laugh repeatedly.

"I told you not to learn everything indiscriminately! Look at what you have learned in the past four years? Singing, drumming, and acrobatics. Last time, I was convinced that someone else made a giant lantern to make me happy. Now I have learned storytelling, can you? Do something serious?"

Xue Wunian knew that he was very happy in his heart, but he kept his mouth shut and followed his will, "A chivalrous man must have a follower who is good at speaking and singing. Responsible for making you happy, and..."

He clung to Wen Qiusheng's ear and finished the rest of his words.

Wen Qiusheng blushed at what he said, and glared at him, Xue Wunian couldn't help laughing softly at his arrogant but shy appearance.

The two left the temple quarreling.Under the red wall in the distance, the sweeping monk looked gentle and calm. His raised face was that of Guo Ziye, who left the court three years ago and disappeared. He looked at the figure in the distance, as if he was relieved.

"Nice, he looks happy."

The abbot sighed slightly beside him, "Everything has an end, and now it's a good beginning and a good end."

Guo Ziye seemed to be recalling something, and smiled, "Yeah, I used to always think that if I didn't miss it at the beginning, maybe the ending would not be like this. But now my thinking has gradually changed. As long as he lives well, he will Good ending."

Xue Wunian in the distance seemed to turn his head back, and with his eyesight, he easily saw Guo Ziye. He nodded slightly, and his eyes turned to Wen Qiusheng in just a moment, his eyebrows and eyes widened.

Not knowing why, Wen Qiusheng asked him suspiciously, "Why are you laughing all of a sudden?"

Xue Wunian lightly kissed him on the forehead, with a low and gentle voice, "Laughs, I am lucky in my three lives, to have a sweetheart, get along day and night, never leave forever."
