Gui Liukuo sat on the top of the mountain. The whole night, the first hint of fish-belly white appeared on the horizon, and he began to box.
The mountains are filled with mist and fairy atmosphere, and there is silence between heaven and earth, except for the gentle breeze. The big sleeves of the white clothes were swaying, and the fists were spinning. Every time he breathed out, he breathed out wisps of pure purple-gold mist, and the date marks between his eyebrows were even more lustrous.
Being gifted with half of the Buddhist luck, one person is half of Fanke Mountain. The old abbot's stake is so huge that it is extremely rare even if you look at the three worlds.
As early as when Guiliu was still an infant, a great monk who was proficient in witchcraft once said: "His Royal Highness the Prince was born to be close to the Buddha, and his wisdom is very deep. If he escapes into Buddhism and achieves the great road, it will be just around the corner."
It was because of these words that Qin Fang briefly wavered and wanted to send Guiliu to worship the Buddha. Because compared to that dragon chair, if Gei Liu can really achieve greatness, at least he will be able to protect himself in the coming Dharma Ending Era in the next few decades. But if you sit on that dragon chair, it means that the emperor is guarding the country and the king is dead.
Because he was unwilling to part with his flesh and blood, Qin Fang still couldn't stop being cruel, and Gui Liu became the world's biggest dandy today. Although he did not send him to worship the Buddha, Qin Fang arranged a game of chess, which was consistent with the Guiliu Avenue to a certain extent. According to hundreds of deductions, if there were no mistakes in the chess game, then Guiliu would completely complete that day according to the chess game route. It must be at the level of Grand Master or Great Monk.
Because Geiliu was born close to Buddhism, the first piece in this game of chess was a gift of Buddhist luck from the old abbot of Mount Fanke. The words that the old abbot said to Gui Liu before were worthy of careful consideration, and Gui Liu vaguely guessed that the path he was taking now, excluding interceptions and other accidents, was all the result of his mother's decision more than ten years ago. Already arranged. He also finally understood why his father always said: "Of the three chess players in the world, your mother can be ranked in the top ten." He also finally understood why the Dafeng Dynasty has national players who are more than nineteen in the world, and There were thousands of staff, but they were never defeated by their own Dajing Dynasty. It turns out that my mother alone is the best player above all national players. With her hard work and mental effort, she can defeat thousands of armies.
But the more this happened, the more scared Guiliu became.
I was afraid that I couldn't protect Jin Zhi.
After the boxing was over, Gui Liu took a long breath and began to go down the mountain without looking haggard.
Walking back to the residence, I happened to bump into Wang Sizhi, who was bringing porridge, and the pretty girl.
Wang Sizhi didn't say anything, and took the lead into the thatched cottage, took out the steaming white rice porridge and put it on the table. He pulled two stools to his side, one for himself and the other for the little girl, so Giliu could only stand. Have a meal.
Seeing that he only had half a bowl of porridge, and it was all clear soup with little water, which was even more pitiful than the big pot of rice used to help Jifa porridge, Guiliu couldn't help but whispered: "Why should I only order so much?"
Wang Sizhi didn't even look at him and said calmly: "These days when I give you porridge, you always stop eating after a few bites. I'd better ask for less, lest you become the eternal sinner who wastes food."
Guiliu sighed helplessly and grabbed the chopsticks.
Wang Sizhi looked up at him and said calmly: "Isn't it enough for you?"
Gui Liuyan said succinctly: "I boxed today and I feel a little hungry."
Wang Sizhi said nothing and gave him half of his porridge. Perhaps he was afraid that the little girl would not have enough to eat, so he gave her some more, so he only had a little left.
Guiliu couldn't help but asked: "Can you eat such a small amount?"
Wang Sizhi smiled and said, "It's okay. Anyway, I've been angry every day these days, and I'm full of anger. But that person, who clearly doesn't care about me, still pretends to care. There's no need for that."
The little girl lowered her head to eat the porridge and did not dare to raise her head.
During these days, she had seen the tit-for-tat confrontation between these two people too many times.
It's all yin and yang, and there's something in the words.
Sure enough, Guiliu took a deep breath and his tone suddenly turned cold, "You say I'm hypocritical? I don't care about you?"
Wang Sizhi smiled and narrowed her eyes, holding her chin in her hands, "That's it."
"Okay, very good." Guiliu sneered, "That's what you say."
Putting the bowl of porridge on the table with a bang, Geiliu strode away.
In the thatched cottage, Wang Sizhi drank porridge unintentionally and was in a daze. When the little girl drank all the porridge, she obediently tugged on her clothes. Then she came back to her senses and said softly: "Sister, can I take you down the mountain? "
The little girl blinked her moist eyes, a little nervous, but still shook her head.
Wang Sizhi noticed her embarrassment and rubbed her little head, "Do you think your sister has changed? She's not as gentle as before?"
The little girl gathered her courage and nodded.
Wang Sizhi's eyes were gentle, "Don't worry, although sister is very angry, she will not take it out on you. On the contrary, if you are always walking on thin ice around her, she will be sad."
The little girl was relieved, and quietly pinched Wang Sizhi's waist with one hand. She imitated the man's frivolous colloquialism and said, "It's so tender."
Wang Sizhi smiled and narrowed her eyes, took the little girl's hand, and the two walked out of the thatched cottage together.
"You really don't want to go down the mountain to play with your sister?"
"No, sister, stay with me!"
"I'll stay with you, and my sister will stay with you."
It wasn't until he saw the two figures, one large and one small, returning to the thatched cottage instead of walking down the mountain that Gui Liu felt relieved and turned around to move forward.
Jin Zhi was lying in bed in a daze when he saw the long-lost figure walking in. He quickly sat up and said softly in surprise: "Your Highness, why are you here?"
"It's okay, I just missed you and came to see you." Guiliu forced out a stiff smile and sat down next to her.
Sensing that something was wrong with him, Jin Zhi said cautiously: "Your Highness, is he not in a good mood?"
Guiliu hummed, "It's just something bad, something annoying. By the way, where are Qingxue and the others? Shouldn't there be someone to take care of you?"
Jin Zhi smiled and said, "My slave can get out of bed and walk, so why do I need to take care of you?"
Guiliu was a little surprised, "Really or not? It healed so quickly?"
Jin Zhi's eyes were full of resentment, her red lips curled up, and she was a little angry, "That's right, His Highness hasn't seen this slave for a month, no wonder he didn't know."
The bed was not big, so Gui Liu simply lay down, swayed his legs, remained silent for a long time, and said softly: "Jin Zhi, do you still remember the first time you and I met?"
Recalling the past, Jin Zhi smiled happily and said softly: "How could you not remember? At that time, the Queen brought the slave into the palace. The slave was only seven years old and didn't understand anything. One time, he accidentally took His Majesty's favorite tea pet. It was broken into pieces, so the slave went to bury it with a small shovel, but was bumped into by the female officer in charge. Your Highness, you happened to be passing by and saw the slave being slapped. You squatted aside and watched the fun without saying anything, until the slave was almost knocked unconscious. Only then did you speak out to stop it. I will remember this incident for the rest of my life."
Guiliu touched his nose and said awkwardly: "I was young and ignorant at that time. How did I know that you would be the maid next to me in the future, and I didn't know why you were beaten. I just thought it was fun, so I stopped to watch the fun. And I forgot about this even if you didn’t mention it. Are you a little too..."
Jin Zhi snorted coldly, "Your Highness, you want to say that slaves hold grudges, right? Well, slaves hold grudges. Who wants Your Highness to be partial? Taozhi was punished by the Queen when she was a child, so you go and intercede. When the slave makes a mistake and is punished, you just sit back and do nothing." "
Guiliu felt a headache coming on, "No matter what, I treat everyone equally. When you and Taozhi quarreled, I always looked at you. You can't generalize, so I didn't die unjustly."
Jin Zhi tilted her head slightly, "Then when did your highness want to meet for the first time?"
"Actually, it was earlier than you said, but you and I didn't know each other at that time. My impression is also very vague, and you must have forgotten it. The first day my mother brought you back, I was forced into her bedroom When I was studying, I turned around and saw you sitting there eating. You looked like you had been hungry for a long time and were dirty like a little beggar. At that time, I thought to myself, where did this beggar come from and how could he ask for food? You are about to come to the palace. I secretly observed you, but my mother found out that I was not paying attention to my studies, so she slapped me several times. While I was being beaten, you asked me if I wanted to eat something. At that time, I felt Did you do it on purpose?"
Jin Zhi thought about it carefully, then shook her head coquettishly and said, "I don't remember, I don't remember. I just remember that His Highness saw me being beaten and still didn't help me."
Guiliu looked helpless, sat up straight, and knocked her chest slightly hard, "I'm trying to be reasonable with you."
Looking through the door to the blue sky in the distance, Guiliu whispered: "Jin Zhi, I'm so afraid of losing you. Can you please not leave me."
The woman rested her head on his shoulder and said softly: "What are you talking about, Your Highness? How could this slave leave you? If this slave leaves, who will prepare the tea for Your Highness to drink? Even if I die, I will not leave Your Highness." of."
"Does the retractor work?"
"Why doesn't it work?"
Jin Zhi stretched out her slender fingers and hooked them with the man's, and then the two of them recited the childish proverb together.
"Pull the hook, hang yourself, and it won't change for a hundred years."
Guiliu suddenly sat up straight, clenched his fists tightly and put them on his legs, closed his eyes, and his lips trembled.
Jin Zhi gently leaned her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes with contentment.
In the past years, the gardenias in Houtu Temple were in bloom, filling the sky with golden color, which was pleasant to the nose. Some people joked, "It's not as nice as the golden gardenia."
From then on, her name was Jin Zhi.
She had blocked gunshots and knives for him countless times over the years, but she still felt guilty.
She had already thought that if her identity was discovered, she would die as an apology.
It is estimated that that day is not far away. Of course, death is not terrible, but it is a pity that I will no longer be able to see the beautiful gardenia flowers blooming all over the mountains and fields of Houtu Temple.
"sorry."
She whispered in her heart.
At the glazed archway, two beggar-looking people, one big and one small, were sitting on the stone steps, finishing their porridge and getting ready to go down the mountain.
Li Minghao turned his head and took a look, his expression was sad, and he slowly turned back.
"Don't think about it. Even if you agree to him or I agree to him, it will be useless. The temperament and methods of the empress in the capital are unmatched by many people in the whole world, otherwise she would not be the same. Ten years ago, she was the most powerful demon in the world who was unable to lift her head despite being defeated by both worlds. Unless I resume my post as Imperial Master and have the entire Dafeng as my backer, I cannot protect her at all. If that Queen Empress insists on If she dies, she will definitely die and no one can save her.”
Li Minghao lowered his head and said, "He doesn't recognize me as his brother."
The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "Master, I will help you remember this debt. The ascended immortal will definitely help you get it back in the future."
Li Minghao nodded and took a deep breath, "Let's go."
Two figures, one large and one small, began to descend the mountain.
Suddenly, he turned around suddenly, his lips trembled, and roared: "I'm leaving!"
No one answered.
Suddenly he remembered that day when he was hiking, a pair of his smelly shoes was thrown directly in his face.
It was so funny, but before he knew it, his face was filled with tears.
On the way down the mountain, the apparently ageless back looked slightly rickety.
