...

There are only Sang Sang in the portraits of the streets and alleys, but the two Buddhist schools knew that Ning Que was with Sang Sang, and they knew the conspicuous black carriage that could not be disguised in any way.

The black carriage is the legacy that Yan Se left to him. The two schools of Buddhism must think that he will not give up. He used this to leave the **** horse and the carriage outside the city, but he brought Sang Sang into the city.

He chose to hide in Chaoyang City temporarily, because he wanted to wait here until his brother, and Sang Sang's condition was repeated. If he had to flee for thousands of miles to the end, he worried that Sang Sang would not be able to sustain it.

Even if he ca n’t wait for his brother, he must come to Chaoyang City because he believes in the truth under the lights and his ability to hide whereabouts, and hopes that the Buddhist temple here can make Sang Sang ’s condition better.

Walking in Chaoyang City with Sang Sang, Ning Que did not take long to find his goal. It was a dilapidated courtyard not far from the Royal Palace of the Moon State. Standing in the courtyard, you can directly see the famous Baita Temple, but it is located in a noisy and inferior block for easy hiding.

He chose this small courtyard as the most important and decisive reason, because this small courtyard is dilapidated, the doors are covered with dust, and at a glance, it has been known that no one has lived for a long time, and it is quiet like a dark house.

Ning Que did not go to the side to inquire about the story of the small courtyard, because any contact with others may lead to unexpected results. He sneaked into the Chaoyang Chengfu Office to secretly search the case, confirming that it was not what he expected. Last year, an extremely **** massacre happened in that small courtyard.

The owner of the small courtyard died in the tragedy. Relatives who are eligible to inherit the small courtyard are obsessed with cultivating the Buddha. They are unwilling to take over this small courtyard full of sin and anger. Leases, even corrupt officials and monks, have no interest in small courtyards.

Ning Que will naturally not rent a small courtyard. When the twilight came, he carried Sang Sang from the back wall of the back street and easily leapt into the small courtyard, passing through the bedroom that was coming to the backyard.

Along the way, the twilight was bleak, and the silence was extremely high. The old bricks on the ground and the walls still had dark black blood stains on the walls, which seemed extremely dark. Not to mention ordinary people. Even the butcher who has seen the blood, I'm afraid that my scalp will feel numb. No wonder everyone can't avoid this house. Ning Ken refused to accept it.

Ning Que and Sang Sang didn't know how many dead people they had seen since childhood, and the pictures were more gloomy and horrible than this, and they had seen too many. There is no fear at all, not even the slightest change in expression.

There was no blood stains in the bedroom, only dusty beds and tables. After thinking for a moment, he walked out of the courtyard again. When he came back, he held several bedding in his arms and carried the plaster needed for carpentry.

After a simple cleaning, Ning Que spreads thick cotton and soft bedding on the ground and pats a new pillow. Then open the waste well in the courtyard again, take water and adjust the ash, make all the cracks in the firewood window smooth, without leaving a gap, and hang a thick black cloth on the window and the door.

It was already dark, he reached down and hung down two black cloths, then walked out of the room. Having said that, all I could hear was the slight sound of fire in the room. He looked closely and found that there was no light leaking, and nodded.

This was when he took Sang Sang to hunt in Minshan many years ago. The skill he learned when he squatted and slaughtered boars in the night snow, boars are particularly sensitive to light and human odor. The squatting points he temporarily built in the snow can tightly reveal the light and the smell of his body. Now it is used to clean up these, naturally there is no difficulty.

The night was deep and the courtyard was still gloomy. No one dared to get close to it. Even if they were close, they would only see the old picture as usual, and no traces of people coming.

Buddhism is searching for the black carriage everywhere, trying to find Ning Que and Sang Sang, the countless strongmen of the Daomen, ambushing in the greenery that must pass through the Tang Dynasty, who can think of the daughter of Pluto in the small courtyard very close to the White Pagoda Temple in.

A black crow fell on the tree in the courtyard and looked up at the star.

...

...

There are portraits of Sang Sang everywhere in Chaoyang City. Crowds are gathered in front of each Buddhist temple. Monks are telling the legends of the underworld, the last words of the Buddha, the story of the daughter of the Hades, and the expressions of the people in the moon are very complicated. Some were frightened, some were frightened and angry, and the Buddha taught him not to be dissatisfied. They were all left behind and gradually excited. People waved their fists and said that they would find the daughter of Pluto and burn her to death.

Ning Que walked on the street. The crowd's comments and anger, as well as the most vicious curses on Sang Sang, had no effect on him. It didn't take long for him to arrive at the Li Hotel.

Datang's envoys to the lunar kingdom are in the Li Hotel. Instead of entering the Lili Hotel, he stood in the quieter back alley and listened intently to the movement in the courtyard wall before deciding what to do.

"This is not Mingzhe to protect yourself! Nor is it a surrender! It's the right thing or not! My Datang Empire is a world leader. Of course, I don't care about the pressure of the lunar kingdom. Even if the Xiling Temple can make me retreat? But I can't just watch it. This is how the Datang should bear the responsibility of destroying the world! "

Ning Que stood quietly in the alley outside the wall and listened to it for a while. The most useful message he heard was this passage. The person speaking was the official of Datang in the moon. He slowly lowered his head, and then turned to leave .

Sang Sang looked at the look on his face and knew that the situation was not very good, reaching for his hand. Ning Que smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, just listening to something, I'm a little surprised."

Sang Sang asked: "What is it?"

Ning Que said: "Guess how long we have left Lanke Temple?"

Sang Sang thought for a while and said, "At least a month has passed."

"Wrong, it's a year."

Ning Que touched her slightly cool face and said, "Unconsciously, a year has passed, so I have to be patient for another half a year. I will take you to Baita Temple to see the Buddhist scriptures tomorrow."

The first half of his life with Sang Sang was the first half of the ups and downs. His life was extremely difficult, and it can even be said that he was miserable, but it was also that difficult time that allowed them to become the present and let them have ordinary people. Unimaginable courage, perseverance, indifference and patience.

Ten years ago, deep in the snow-covered Minshan Mountain, Ning Que squatted in the snow cellar with Sang Sang and killed the boar. Unexpectedly, a awakened winter bear appeared unexpectedly, and the winter bear killed the boar to eat a meal. Rear. Seeming to be aware of the food, he stayed near the snow cellar and refused to leave. He leaned on the boar corpse for a few days.

Ning Que was not strong enough at the time. Sang Sang was still a six-year-old girl. It was impossible to defeat a greedy winter bear. They had no other choice but to hide in a snow cellar and wait for prayer.

Prayers to Haotian will never wait for a response, but wait beyond the tolerance of ordinary people. In the end, you can always get success. In the end, the winter bear couldn't resist hunger, and left in a daze, rather lacking the dying Sang Sang. When crawling out of the snow cellar, they had been in the snow cellar for four days and four nights.

In that case, both you and Sang Sang can survive. Why can't you survive now? Ning Que looked at the autumn sky that was gradually clearing out of the window, and looked at the thicker and thicker autumn clouds, thinking in silence.

On the tree in the small courtyard, the black crow cried out, which was very unpleasant.

...

...

Ning Que and Sang Sang disappeared again in this world. They had disappeared for a whole year, but that time there were two speculations about Buddhism and Taoism that they either died or were in the chessboard world left by the Buddha. No trace of them can be found, no one will be shocked, let alone think it is incredible.

But now they have left the world of Buddha's chessboard and returned to the world again, but they disappeared again. The two strong schools of Buddhism and countless people in the world have exhausted all methods and cannot find their traces. Can not help but vigilant to the extreme, to know that there are even a lot of people are even watching the college today.

An old monk slowly walked out of the deep pit in the extremely west wilderness, and then walked forward.

The old monk wore a hat and could not see his face clearly. Holding a tin stick, he walked very slowly. Not the kind of deliberately slow to show calm, but his feet seem to be tightly connected to the desolate land, every step is so difficult, naturally slow.

The tin rod in the old monk's hand kept moving on the ground, as if looking for something or someone on the wasteland, but he was so difficult and slow to walk, who could he find?

However, the moment he walked out of the Tiankeng, he seemed to find something and said, "Wang Ting."

The yellow temple between the giant peaks in the middle of the tiankeng sounded distant bells.

Thousands of miles away, Youting Wangting, a dusty scholar, looked at Shan Yu and more than a dozen priests who were like enemies, and bowed slightly, saying, "Will you see my family? Brother? "

More than ten miles away, the deputy seat of Xuankong Temple Venerable, with thirty ascetic monks, hurried to Wang Ting.

The old monk continued his slow walk, and after a long walk, he stopped again and said, "Liuguan."

The bells of the yellow temple between the giant peaks in the middle of the tiankeng rose again.

The scholar appeared in Liuguan, a well-known trade and distribution center on the edge of the wasteland.

Thousands of prairie cavalry and several lunar national cavalry drove towards Liuguan after receiving military orders.

The old monk continued to walk. One day later, he stopped and said a place name again.

Venerable Xuankong Temple was the first, quietly looking at the scholars under the poplar tree not far away.

...

...

The brother looked at the bark of Yang Shu's rough encouragement and understood what had happened.

Regardless of the danger of falling into the environment, he used his undistorted ability to search for the trace of the younger brother, and the two cases of Buddhism and Taoism sent people to follow him nonstop, so even if he found Ning Que, he could not quietly Taking him away will surely face two continuous attacks of Buddhism and Taoism, regardless of life and death.

No practitioner can keep up with the distance, and can find himself accurately every time. Both conditions must be met at the same time. The other party must have enough strong men or troops, and be prepared near all places where they can reach. At the same time, the other party must be able to know where he is in the shortest time.

In principle, it is impossible to satisfy these two conditions at the same time. However, when the whole world is searching for Sangsang, when the two Buddhism and the whole world join forces, they can really send There are enough strong men or troops, and someone can fulfill the second condition.

The brother seemed to be a gentle man, but in fact he was extremely intelligent. It only took a short time for him to understand everything and confirm his conjecture: The first lecture of Xuankong Temple was finally on earth.

He looked at seven of them with a slight smile, and sat down against the poplar tree. He took out the old book from his waist and began to read. There was no pond beside him to drink with a scoop, and his expression remained calm and calm.

Since the two schools of Buddhism tried to use him to determine the location of Ning Que and Sang Sang, from this moment on, he decided to do nothing but study, eat, and sleep.

Doing nothing is the best hiding method. On the contrary, the more concealment you make, the easier it is to expose. The master does not understand this truth, but he does what he wants and naturally makes the most correct choice.

Ning Que has a lot of experience in hiding and running away. He understands this and does the same. Except for taking Sang Sang to various Buddhist temples to study sutras and cure diseases, he never went out of the small courtyard or even went to the master.

Sang Sang's illness improved slightly, or did not become more serious for the time being, he still had no spirits, and just after noon, he fell asleep.

Ning Que sat by the bed and started reading.

This book is a copy of the Buddha's notes he hand-written in the Lanke Temple. The texts of the Tianshu Mingzi and the Buddha's explanations are side-by-side arranged in order, so that they can be read more clearly. thing.

These days I took Sangsang to several Buddhist temples. Ning Que was vaguely aware of it, so I read this note again and frowned slightly, saying to himself: "The night is coming, because of the month ... Is n’t this going down? Cause and effect? ​​The shadow of night falls on the moon, and it can no longer be washed away. What does it mean? "

He looked at Sang Sang who was asleep, looked at her pale face, and reached out to touch it lightly, thinking of the shadow of the dark night in the scroll, naturally the daughter of Pluto, Sang Sang.

The shadow of the night falls on the moon, and it can no longer be washed away ... From the literal meaning and the current situation, this month naturally refers to itself, and the entire world really has only seen the moon.

Ning Que is thoughtful and enlightened, but still confused.

There were some unpleasant quacks outside the window ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ He confirmed that no one was outside the courtyard, pushed the door to the courtyard, and looked at the black crows on the tree, frowning slightly.

On the first night of the small courtyard, a crow flew. After that, there was a black crow flying every day, and gradually more and more, the branches could not bear the weight of these guys.

There is a strangeness in this matter.

He looked up at the sky, and there were more and more clouds over Chaoyang City. Those clouds had been slowly approaching fusion, and gradually became thick clouds covering the sky.

As the clouds thickened, the people in the city finally felt a chill, and autumn was finally over.

For Ning Que and Sang Sang, the fall of the previous year and the fall of this year are connected. In these two autumns, there are too many things happening to them.
