Chapter 78
Outside Lanruo Temple.
"Chang Geng, how do you look at this? Does the landscape painting on it look good?" Shen Fei asked while holding a delicate fan.
Gu Changgeng glanced at it, and replied absent-mindedly: "Well, not bad..."
"Let's go, let's go to the front and have a look, there are quite a lot of people in front."
Shen Fei dragged Gu Changgeng within two steps, but Gu Changgeng suddenly stopped and did not leave, which made him ask in bewilderment: "What's wrong?"
"Shen Shizi, you go shopping by yourself first, I'd better go into Lanruo Temple to have a look."
Gu Changgeng turned around and walked back, Shen Fei called him a few words, but seeing that he didn't turn his head back, he simply stopped shouting and continued to visit his place.
Gu Changgeng strode into Lanruo Temple, looked around, did not see Lin Qingqian, but saw Chun Xia standing anxiously at the door, he walked over and asked, "Where is Qingqian?"
"Master Gu, the young lady left with a master, saying that it was Master Jing Kong who wanted to see her."
"Master Jing Kong wants to see her?" Even Gu Changgeng was also taken aback, frowned slightly, and said, "Does anyone say why you want to see Qing Qian?"
Chun Xia shook his head, "I didn't say anything, and Miss has been away for a while, and I haven't seen her back yet, could something be wrong..."
Gu Changgeng was not sure for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Where are they? I'll go find them."
"But...Master Jingkong said, I only saw Miss."
"It's okay, can you tell me which direction Qingqian and the others are going?"
"The master led the lady from here, and said that it was Master Jing Kong who asked the lady to meet in the backyard."
Gu Changgeng glanced at the trail, nodded slightly, "I see, you wait here, I'll go and have a look."
As soon as Gu Changgeng left, Xianglan moved closer to Lin Qingrou and said in a low voice: "Miss, Gu Changgeng seems to be very worried about Miss San. When did he have such a good relationship with Miss San?"
Lin Qingrou snorted coldly, but did not answer, thinking to herself, the two of them should have died on the street outside the house last time!
……
Lin Qingqian's eyes widened, and she swallowed, "Do you know that I'm not from here? Do you know that I'm from modern times?"
Master Jing Kong always kept a gentle smile, "The poor monk didn't know where the little benefactor came from, and he couldn't see through your fate, but the poor monk knew the fate of the real third lady of the prime minister's mansion. It shouldn't be."
"Then... don't you think I'm a monster?"
Master Jingkong chuckled and said, "The little benefactor is no different from ordinary people, and he is not three-headed and six-armed, with a blue face and long fangs. Why does this poor monk treat you as a monster?"
Lin Qingqian said: "I'm not from here, and my origin is unknown. Shouldn't ordinary people be treated as demons and ghosts?"
"No, no, there are very few things that people can know about everything in the world. As the saying goes, there are mountains beyond mountains, and there are people beyond people. You can't call unknown things evil because of your own ignorance."
Lin Qingqian didn't understand what she heard, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief knowing that Master Jingkong would not treat her as a monster.
"Master Jing Kong, do you know how to get me back to the original place?"
"The poor monk doesn't know, but since the little benefactor comes, he will be at peace, isn't it good to obey the destiny?"
Lin Qingqian was momentarily at a loss for words, obeying the destiny?If the plot of the original novel is followed, wouldn't she be going to die at the hands of Gu Changgeng?
Lin Qingqian wanted to ask again, but the monk who brought her here just now came in and said, "Abbot, Mr. Gu is outside the door, do you want to see him?"
Mr. Gu?Gu Changgeng is here?
"Well, let this young man come in."
A cyan figure walked into the small courtyard, verifying what Lin Qingqian thought in his heart, it was Gu Changgeng who came.
Gu Changgeng walked to the pavilion, took a good look at Lin Qingqian, and then respectfully saluted Master Jingkong, saying: "Qingqian is still young and ignorant, if I accidentally offend Master Jingkong, I would like to apologize for her. I hope Master Jingkong will not blame her."
Master Jing Kong looked at the rigorous Gu Changgeng, then at Lin Qingqian, and narrowed his eyes with a smile.
"Young master, don't be nervous. The poor monk invited the little benefactor to come, but it is because of her predestined relationship, and he invited her to have a cup of tea."
Lin Qingqian said helplessly, "Brother Chang Geng, don't treat me like a three-year-old kid who only gets into trouble all day long, okay, come on, sit down and have a cup of tea too, the tea made by Master Jing Kong is quite good of."
"Qingqian, don't be rude in front of Master Jingkong."
Master Jingkong poured another cup of tea, and said with a smile, "Young master, you don't need to be strict. If you don't mind, please sit down and have a cup of tea together."
"Then...thank you, Master Jing Kong."
Gu Changgeng picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyebrows raised slightly, "Good tea."
"It's just the tea trees planted by the young monks in the temple, and the rough tea they pick is made by themselves. If the young master likes it, the poor monk will ask someone to bring some back to the young master."
"How embarrassing that is."
"It's nothing to be ashamed of, it's just rough tea, it's rare for someone to like it."
Lin Qingqian saw that Gu Changgeng and Master Jingkong were chatting with each other sentence by sentence, her eyes lit up suddenly, and she said with a smile: "Master Jingkong only gives orders to those who are predestined, and it is also a secret to be able to sit and drink tea with brother Changgeng today." Isn’t it predestined fate, why don’t you bother Master Jing Kong to approve it for Brother Chang Geng?”
"Qing Qian, don't mess around!"
There are countless people who want Master Jingkong to give orders. He never speaks out to give orders easily, so how could he make an exception for him.
As everyone knows, Master Jingkong said disapprovingly: "The little benefactor is right. It is really a predestined relationship to be able to drink tea with this young master today. Then the poor monk will do the math for this young gentleman."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingqian immediately said excitedly: "Of course, Master Jingkong wants to read the horoscope of his birthday or read his palm?"
Master Jingkong smiled quietly, squinted his eyes enigmatically, stared at Gu Changgeng for a while, and said slowly: "This young master has a noble fate, and he is not a thing in the pool."
As soon as the words fell, both Lin Qingqian and Gu Changgeng were stunned.
The golden scale is not a thing in the pool, it will turn into a dragon when it meets the wind and cloud.
But isn't Master Jingkong's sentence "not a thing in the pool" exactly the same as this sentence?
The dragon was a symbol of the emperor in ancient times.
Lin Qingqian was different from Gu Changgeng in shock. After all, she knew that Gu Changgeng would become the regent who would control the government in the future. She was surprised that Master Jingkong's orders were really accurate and dared to speak out.
Gu Changgeng's usually cold face showed complicated and difficult emotions, and he said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "Master Jing Kong was joking, how could I have any noble fate, I am just an orphan with a bad fate."
Master Jing Kong smiled, didn't say anything more, and continued to drink tea calmly, as if what he said was nothing more than a trivial matter.
Gu Changgeng and Lin Qingqian had different thoughts, the small courtyard was quiet, only the sound of the fire boiling, the sound of boiling water and the faint smell of tea.
After a long while, Gu Changgeng said to Master Jingkong: "Master Jingkong, thank you for your tea, I have bothered you a lot today, so Qingqian and I will bid farewell first."
"The poor monk sends the two of you away."
Gu Changgeng wanted to refuse, but seeing Master Jingkong stood up, he had no choice but to say: "Thank you."
The three of them left the small courtyard, and before they reached the main hall where the Buddha statue was enshrined, they heard a burst of familiar laughter.
"Hahaha, I just wanted to go to Master Jingkong's small courtyard in person, but I never thought that I would meet Master Jingkong here."
