"... Speaking of the Sutra Pavilion, the old monk clasped his hands together and chanted, 'Amitabha, the land of Buddhism, the two benefactors must not act recklessly and ignorantly.' When he put his hands together, it was like a The invisible wall separates Xiao Feng and Murong Fu..."
At the tea stall on the street facing the gate of Meihua Academy, Lu Hanjiang was full of witty words. Even the old man making tea couldn't help but prick up his ears, and the guests beside him were also enjoying it.
Shan Luo listened to the story, her beautiful eyes sparkling. She pulled Lu Hanjiang's clothes, pursed her lips and said to the old man sweeping the snow at the entrance of the academy: "Xiao Lu, do you think that person will be with you?" Is he as good as the sweeping monk in the story?"
Lu Hanjiang closed his eyes and shook his head, pretending to be mysterious: "Well, Buddha said, it can't be said, it can't be said."
When he opened his eyes again, sure enough, Shangluo had disappeared. He looked at Yongle beside him. The little princess pointed in a direction. Lu Hanjiang saw the girl holding a candied haws and following a wanderer. The little kid with a snotty nose said something.
After a while, the snot-nosed kid's face was filled with joy. He bent his body forward and pushed his round head in front. Like a hammer, he ran straight into the old man's waist after a run-up.
The old man cried out in pain and fell into the snow he had just swept away. Others saw him and quickly stepped forward to help him up. They asked with concern: "Uncle Qingyao, are you okay?"
This old man is an old acquaintance of everyone. His name is Qing Yao. No one knows whether this is his first name or surname. Anyway, he is called that. He was working here before Meihua Academy moved to the capital. Cleaning work.
When the academy was forced to leave the capital, this young man did not go with him, but took the initiative to stay and guard the academy's house.
This young man seemed to have feelings for the academy. Upon seeing this, Qi Yunzhou, the vice-president of the academy, did not force him. Instead, he left his salary for the next thirty years and the two parties parted ways.
Vice President Qi is a kind person, and Qing Yao is very old. With his three steps and one breath, it is hard to say how many years he can live. These thirty years of wages are the kindness of the academy. Seeing that he is alone, leaving For his retirement.
But this young man obviously took it seriously. He kept cleaning the closed academy during the cold and summer months. Some people tried to persuade him at first, but later everyone knew that the old man had a stubborn temper, so they let him do it.
In this world, people who keep promises and keep their word are very admirable. Although the old man Qingyao is alone, the neighbors in the area actually take good care of him.
At this moment he was hit, and someone immediately came up to help him, and then began to question the child why he bumped into the old man.
The child was also shocked. After being pointed and criticized by everyone, his nose turned red and he began to cry loudly. Then the child's mother rushed over, holding the child in her arms and apologizing to Qing.
Qing Yao sat up with the help of everyone, touched his waist, and said reluctantly: "The kid is just having fun, it's okay."
The woman pressed the child's head and asked him to apologize to Qing Yao, but the child cried and struggled and refused. He explained: "I didn't want to hit this old grandpa. It was the sister who told me that grandpa can do martial arts. I It won’t hurt him, that sister told me!”
But everyone looked in the direction pointed by the child, and found that the corner was empty, not to mention the sister, not even a single figure.
The woman was disappointed and taught the child a lesson, telling him not to lie. The child burst into tears with grievance.
At this time, the people watching the excitement at the tea stall came to their senses. Suddenly, someone looked thoughtfully in the direction of the young man telling the story, only to find that the man and woman at the table had already disappeared.
Being pulled away from the street in a hurry by Lu Hanjiang, Yongle patted his chest and gasped, his face showing fear after his prank was discovered, and a trace of unconcealable guilt.
Shangluo, who came with him, looked as usual and was still eating the candied haws in his mouth that he had just promised to give to the child.
Lu Hanjiang looked at her and said angrily: "Hey, let me tell you, could you say something before you start next time? The tea I ordered just now was disturbed by you and fell down before I even took two sips. "
Shangluo said with her lips: "It's not Xiao Lu, you are lying again! That old man is not a master, he is obviously an ordinary person."
Lu Hanjiang spread his hands and explained slowly: "I didn't say he was a master. It's just you who thinks so, but it has nothing to do with me."
"Hmph, you obviously wanted me to go there on purpose." The little girl wrinkled her nose and made a face at Lu Hanjiang.
】
Lu Hanjiang chuckled, and then teased: "Hey, since you feel that the old man is hiding his clumsiness, why don't you try it yourself. If you go, even if he is really an ordinary person, at least you can hold back."
Shangluo groaned and said: "I'm not stupid. If that old man is really a master, I'm asking for trouble!"
Lu Hanjiang thought for a while and nodded: "That's right."
The two were chatting and laughing without taking what had just happened to heart at all, but Yongle was a little hesitant at the moment. She said, "Isn't it bad for us to tease the old man like this?"
As the only good child among the three, Yongle is playful but kind-hearted. It is strange that she was born in a place like the palace and was raised to be as innocent and kind as she is now.
After hearing Yongle's shameful speech, Lu Hanjiang pointed at Shangluo and hurriedly cleared the air and said, "It's not me, this girl did everything."
Shangluo bared her teeth at Lu Hanjiang, then shook the back of her head at him, and after humming twice, she didn't answer.
After all, Yongle couldn't bear it anymore. She wanted to go back and see the old grandfather. Lu Hanjiang didn't stop her. He and Shangluo were hanging behind the little princess at a distance.
"So, do you think you are a bad boy compared to Yongle?" Lu Hanjiang said to Shangluo.
Shangluo glared at Lu Hanjiang angrily and said, "Whose fault do you think this is?"
After she was angry, Shangluo asked, "Xiao Lu, why did you deliberately plot against that old man? Do you know him?"
Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows, glanced down at Shangluo, and heard the other party mutter again: "If you tell stories there so loudly, even without me, there will be other people who can't help but be curious to find out what's going on." ?”
Shangluo saw it clearly. There were mostly strong men in coarse cloth jackets at the stall, and there were also many knights and knights with swords. Lu Hanjiang's thoughts were self-evident.
Lu Hanjiang smiled and said, "Indeed, but it's a surprise that you came up with such a destructive trick. Not only did you test the old man's skills, but you also saved yourself a lot of trouble."
Shangluo flattened his mouth and said, "So, that old man is really not an ordinary person, right?"
"No, in a sense he is indeed an ordinary person," Lu Hanjiang paused and said, "When he was hit by that kid just now, the old man really didn't react."
With Lu Hanjiang's eyesight, he could see that the old man sweeping the floor had traces of martial arts training. He was unable to avoid the child's impact. It was not that he didn't notice it, but that he noticed it, but his body movements could not follow. on his mind.
However, this incongruity was not what Lu Hanjiang cared about. He was more concerned about the fact that the description of the old man's origins in the Jinyiwei report contained the word "unknown".
