As soon as the rain stopped, Sijin left the west courtyard and went straight to the meeting room.The banana leaves in the yard were washed clean by the rain, and a drop of rainwater from the tip of the leaf fell on Sijin's neck with a patter, and slid into the depression of the line.

The door of the deliberation room was still closed, and the great monk Lingmu was guarding it outside.Seeing Sijin coming, Ling Mu asked him, "What are you here for?"

"I'm looking for senior brother." Sijin said.The senior brother is the head of the Taihe Temple, and he is discussing with the abbot about the city lord's stay in the Taihe Temple.

We all know that throughout the ages no city lord would be willing to live in a temple.The temple is poor, with clear rules and precepts that run counter to the secular world, so it is not suitable for officials to live in.What's more, Wuma is really not an ordinary official. He is ambitious and unpredictable, and he is the object of fear in Liangshuo and even Xijue. Once such a person lives in Taihe Temple, then the title of "The Only Pure Land in Liangshuo" in Taihe Temple will be lost. no longer exists.

It's ridiculous.

Ling Mu pulled him to the corner and made him lower his voice: "Did you see those soldiers? The city lord came prepared this time, and he is determined to stay in the Taihe Temple. If we resist, we will definitely end badly."

"Can the deputy city lord know about this?" Sijin asked.

Sijin understands Jingwang, the Taihe Temple is supported by Jingwang alone, and Wumazhen will occupy the Taihe Temple this time, Jingwang will definitely not let it go.

"It's strange," said the great monk, frowning at the mention of this, "Master Jingwang allowed this matter. The city lord entered the temple with Lord Jingwang's souvenir."

Jingwang Yun?

Sijin couldn't believe it, but still asked: "Do you know why the city lord must stay in Taihe Temple?"

Ling Mu looked around, then leaned into Sijin's ear and whispered, "To escape marriage."

"Escape from marriage?" This touched Sijin's blind spot, and he looked blank, "Isn't the city owner already married?"

Lingmu was older than him, and he covered a wider range of topics, but he still couldn't explain the complicated situation to Sijin in a few words.

While hesitating, the door of the meeting room opened and a leg was stepped forward.

"You guys," the masked Wumazhen raised his lowered eyes, and looked at Sijin from the side of the door, "are you talking about me?"

Ling Mu immediately fell silent, not daring to raise his head again.

On the contrary, Sijin remained calm and did not say a word.

"Ma'am." Wuma really let them go, stretching his arms to the back, letting Shao help, "Go and pick a yard you like."

"Thank you, City Master." Shao's hand wrapped around his arm, and smiled at him gently, "Taihe Temple is elegant, any one is good. I live alone, so it doesn't need to be too luxurious."

"Then," Wuma Zhen glanced at Sijin with vague eyes, the implication was obvious, "West courtyard?"

As soon as this remark came out, the old monk behind him gasped.

The west courtyard is the area where monks live collectively, how can women be allowed to live there?But if all the monks move out, there will be a big fight, causing chaos for a while.must.

At this time, a voice came, not too loud, but happened to be heard by Wuma: "It's weird."

Wumazhen couldn't help looking back at Sijin's face again.

Sijin looked calm, but her eyes were filled with displeasure: "I remember that the city lord has long been interested in my meditation room, and his confidant said that he wanted to move in immediately. Why did he change his mind in a blink of an eye?"

"Hmm..." Wuma really pondered for a long time, and said, "Is there such a thing?"

"Sijin, don't talk nonsense." The host poked his head out from behind Wumazhen and said seriously.

"Yes." Sijin bowed her head and said nothing more.

At this time Ling Song came over, stood beside Sijin, and said to Wuma Zhen: "There is a Ningxin Hall in the east of Taihe Temple, where many water lilies are planted, the environment is quiet, and the fragrance of flowers greets you at night, it is more suitable for your wife to cultivate her personality. "

"Sounds good." Shao looked at Wumazhen.

Wuma Zhenpi smiled indifferently: "As long as Madam likes it."

He squinted and saw the young monk clinging tightly to the big monk, holding his hands tightly.A look of displeasure flashed across his face.

"May I ask where the head seat lives?" He suddenly asked.

Ling Song bowed his head and replied: "The poor monk lives in the Zhishui hall in front of the west courtyard."

"How far is it from the west courtyard?"

"From the Zhishui Hall to the West Courtyard, if you walk through the veranda, it will probably take half a cup of tea. In the future, if the city lord has something to ask the poor monk, he will be there on call."

Unexpectedly, Wuma really smiled and said: "I will find you in the future if I have nothing to do."

"Zhishui hall is too close to the west courtyard, why don't you find another place to live, it doesn't need to be too far away, just half a stick of incense away from the west courtyard will be fine."

"unacceptable!"

After listening to Si Jin's words, Si Zhan bit the vegetarian bun with an unbelievable expression on his face, "The city lord actually sent the first one to live outside the temple with just one word?"

Sijin, who had just packed up things for her senior brother, didn't want to say a word anymore.He had already made up his mind that when Wumazhen lived in his house, he would live with his brother outside the temple.

Can't be provoked or can't hide?

"Have you packed up the things in your meditation room?" Si Zhan finished eating the steamed stuffed bun, then picked up another white flour steamed bun, tore off half and stuffed it into his mouth.

"It's just a bed, a table, and two books in total. What's there to clean up?" Sijin said, "Could it be that he thinks my bed is shabby and throws it out?"

As soon as the words fell, a voice of Chu Ji came from the yard: "Little master, the city master said that he is not used to sleeping on such a hard bed, so he asked me to remove it. Where do you think this board should be placed?"

"Haha." Si Zhan couldn't help laughing, caught a glimpse of Si Jin's expression, and quickly covered his mouth.

Sijin gritted her teeth.

Si Zhan looked at it, and said quietly: "The chief has put your falling star in the arsenal. He said he would find a time for you, but he is too busy to keep it for you."

"Really?" Sijin immediately widened her eyes.

Luo Xing is a martial stick made by an eminent monk for Sijin when he entered the temple. Sijin has always been very fond of it.It's just that the rules in the temple are strict and you can't use force at will, so this is kept by a prudent senior brother.Sijin usually only uses light wooden sticks when practicing martial arts and boxing.

Now he can finally keep the falling star himself.

Sijin said excitedly, "I'm going to fetch the falling star!"

"Hey, wait a minute," Si Zhan held him back, "You can't keep throwing your bed in the yard, can you?"

"You're right, after I get the Falling Star, I'll bring it to you, let's squeeze together." Sijin said.

Si Zhan, biting the steamed bun, subconsciously said, "Okay...hey wait—"

Looking at the back of Sijin leaving happily, Sizhan suddenly realized that there seems to be no room for two beds in his meditation room.

Sijin went out the door and went straight to the arsenal.

From the west courtyard to the arsenal, you need to pass through the Jingxin Pavilion.When Sijin passed by, she saw the wife of the city lord, Shao Shi, leaning on the handrail, feeding the fish by the pond alone.

Hearing the movement, Shao looked back, meeting Sijin's eyes across the air.

"Where is little master?" Shao asked kindly.

Si Jin pursed her lips and forgot to say hello for a while.

He thought to himself: This is Mrs. Wumazhen.And Wuma is really a peacock.Rounding off, this is Mrs. Peacock.Peacock is full of lies, and even lied to him that his wife died young.Has anyone cursed his wife like that?

"The poor monk has seen Mrs. Kong." Sijin saluted.When he mentioned the word "Kong", he hesitated for a while.

Sure enough, Shao covered his mouth and smiled, and called him over: "My surname is not Kong, just call me Shao."

"The poor monk has seen Mrs. Shao." Sijin corrected.

Shao gave two pieces of jade conch cakes in the porcelain bowl to his palm, and said, "Master must like it. At the Buddhist feast, I saw the city lord wishing to send all the dim sum in the house to the little master." table."

Sijin's ears turned red.

He couldn't help asking: "Why is Madam here alone?"

Shaw sat down again and supported his forehead: "Today I saw young monks in Taihe Temple, all of them were young and innocent, and they thought of my eldest son who had passed away for many years. I was sad for a while, so I wanted to be alone for a while."

It turns out that the mayor's wife also had such a sad past.

Sijin also felt sad.People in Buddhism are the most soft-hearted, he really can't hear such a thing.

Fortunately, Shao Shi didn't intend to pull him to continue talking, Sijin comforted her sincerely, and left.

After Sijin walked away, Wumazhen, who was hiding behind the pavilion, came out unhurriedly, waving his folding fan.

"The story is pretty good," Wuma said.He knelt down to admire the fish swimming in the pond.

"I'm not a man of the mortal world, how can I know about the affairs of the mortal world?" Shao looked at him calmly, and threw a bowl of fish food into the pond.

"You really have an eldest son?" Wuma really put his hand into the water.After a while, a small fish swims over curiously. The moment he kisses his finger, the fish vomits a few bubbles and floats up to die.

"It's ashamed to say. When I was young, I naively thought that as long as I honestly care for my husband and teach my children and stop interfering with Cang Mansion's affairs, the city lord will eventually be influenced by me. Until I saw him brutally kill my son with my own eyes. Someone poured me a pot of black soup. From that day on, I realized that in the eyes of some people, feelings are just a dagger that kills people.”

"Tsk." He picked up the dead fish and looked at it by the tail, "It's so miserable."

Shao reminded him: "You and I are now grasshoppers on the same rope. You can't turn back on this road."

"Who said I can't turn back?" There was a three-point sneer in his eyes, "You should know that only good people can't turn back, and I, I am really not a good person."

"You killed Wumazhen, why do you turn back?" Shao couldn't believe it, "King Xijue will not let you go."

He threw the dead fish back into the pond: "I set up the whole game of chess, so if I can't play, can I still be the master?"

Shaw was speechless for a moment.

After a while, Wuma really stood up straight, no longer hiding the aloofness and coldness in his eyes.

"You will not die in vain."

"To be precise," he paused, his ambition clearly revealed, "you and the entire Taihe Temple will not die in vain."

"I want to use you to play a big game of chess and show him the king of Xijue."

The author has something to say:

According to Baidu: Half a cup of tea takes about 5 minutes.Half a stick of incense is about half an hour.therefore:

Peacock: How far is it from where you live to the West Courtyard?

Brother: 5 minutes, on call.

Peacock: It's too close, why don't you live in another place?But there is no need to go too far, half an hour is enough.

Brother forced to live outside Taihe Temple: Are you polite?

[The author's warm reminder]

Use Taihe Temple to play chess, be careful chasing wife crematorium :)
