Chapter 101 Buddha, please protect your little fox (13)

"Thank you so much, benefactor, for saving my life."

Wu An nodded in thanks, a faint blush appearing on his fair and handsome face.

Ye Ranqing looked at Wuan's helpless reaction and the idea of ​​playing a prank came to his mind.

"The book says that even a drop of kindness should be rewarded with one's own life. So, little master, will you be my husband?"

Wu An was frightened by her shocking words. His eyes widened, and he opened his lips and spoke in a panic.

"Is... is that so?"

Why did he feel like something was wrong?

Seeing this, Ye Ranqing wanted to tease him even more.

"Yes, so, little master, will you repay me by giving yourself to me?"

Wu An was even more frightened and he retreated

"No...I can't. I'm a monk, and monks can't get married."

"Little Master, I'm just teasing you."

Ye Ranqing blinked mischievously, and a smile could not be concealed on her bright and cheerful face.

Wu An immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but he saw that the girl in front of him was staring at the little fox in her arms.

"Isn't this the little lecherous fox?"

Little pervert, what little pervert?

Wu An was confused, but he answered her truthfully word by word.

"Donor, this is the little fox we raise at Putuo Temple. Have you seen it?"

"Putuo Temple? So you are a monk from Putuo Temple?"

When he met Ye Ranqing's bright eyes, Wuan felt his cheeks getting hot.

“Yes…yes.”

Ye Ranqing looked up and down at the reserved Wuan, with curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"Are all the young monks in your Putuo Temple so good-looking?"

Not to mention the Buddhist disciple, even the little monk in front of him is fair and tender, looking like a delicious peach.

nice....

Wu An is often praised by pilgrims for being well-behaved, but this is the first time someone has praised him for being good-looking...

Wu An's ears turned red, and he could only lower his head helplessly.

"Thank you...thank you for the compliment, benefactor."

Ye Ranqing covered his mouth and burst out laughing.

"Why are you so literary? It's so cute."

Wuan lowered his head even lower, his cheeks became hotter and hotter, and he felt like a monkey rolling in boiling water.

Ye Ranqing stopped teasing him and his eyes fell on the little red fox.

"You little lecherous fox, if it weren't for me, you would have been skinned alive. Do you still dare to take advantage of me in the future?"

Ye Ranqing snorted proudly, and poked the little fox's furry head with her soft white fingertips.

As the distance got closer, Wu An froze in place, not daring to move at all.

The female donor smells so good...

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, her big round eyes glued to Ye Ranqing, and she called out in gratitude.

The soft and lingering sound immediately melted Ye Ranqing's heart.

She stretched out her hand, not caring at all about the smelly blood on the little fox, and held it in her arms.

"Why are you so cute, little fox? I love you so much."

She rubbed the little fox's soft and clean fur, and her beautiful eyes curved into a crescent shape.

Chen Yuan nestled lazily in her arms, her nose filled with the faint scent of powder.

Afraid that Wuan would meet Li the Butcher again, Ye Ranqing held the horse in one hand and the little fox in the other, and slowly followed him.

Wuan retrieved the basket, and the sandalwood and candied haws inside were intact.

He subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Ye Ranqing say

"Well, this is the end of my first escort trip. Little monk, please be careful on the road."

After saying that, Ye Ranqing mounted the horse swiftly, holding the rough reins with her delicate hands, looking down from above, with her black hair tied up high and fluttering in the wind.

The horse's hooves moved slightly, and Wuan looked at Ye Ranqing's slender and unrestrained back, and was lost in thought for a moment.

"That's right."

Ye Ranqing turned his head.

Wuan looked away in panic.

"My name is Ye Ranqing, what's your name, little monk?"

Wu An bowed, nodded, and leaned forward, his voice trembling slightly.

"My name is Wuan."

"Wu'an, Wu'an, what a nice name. Then we'll meet next time at Putuo Temple! Goodbye, little Master Wu'an, goodbye, little fox!"

Ye Ranqing waved his hand and rode away gracefully.

"What a beautiful, special girl."

Wu An was in a daze, muttering to himself, unwilling to look away for a long time.

*

A gentle breeze blew across Putuo Temple. A red little fox, holding two candied haws in its mouth, slowly approached the quiet Zen room.

"Are you back?"

A cool and gentle voice reached his ears. Shen Yuan tilted his head and looked quietly at the figure standing upright in front of the desk.

"How did you know I was back? My footsteps were obviously very light."

Jingchen chuckled, and the ink-stained hair banner slowly fell onto the white paper.

"Bronze mirror."

Chen Yuan climbed onto the desk and found that a bronze mirror had appeared on the desk at some point.

The bronze mirror is a very common style and has no special patterns carved on it.

"Did the abbot send it?"

"Um."

Jingchen usually doesn't spend much time looking in the mirror or dressing up.

For him, chanting scriptures, worshiping Buddha, and practicing peacefully are the most important things in life.

But when the abbot brought him the bronze mirror, he remembered the beautiful little fox and kept it.

"How is it? Do you like it?"

Jingchen spoke softly, his hands moving non-stop, but there was a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Shen Yuan nodded without hesitation, her voice soft and sweet.

"Yeah, I like it. Thank you, Jingchen Buddhist~"

Jingchen Buddhist....

In fact, Jingchen did not like others calling him a Buddhist disciple.

These two words are his responsibility, destiny, and also the shackles that bind him.

He can neither escape nor abandon.

But when he heard this name from the little fox, he inexplicably felt that it was quite pleasant...

"I also want to give you a gift."

Jingchen raised his eyebrows almost imperceptibly. "Hmm? What gift?"

The little fox put his two front paws behind his back, and then took out two candied haws mysteriously.

"Ding ding ding! Candied haws, so delicious!"

Jingchen reached out to take it. The hawthorn gourd wrapped in sugar coating looked crystal clear under the light reflected from the wooden window.

Jingchen frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about, and asked

"Where did you get the money?"

"It's the copper coins Wuan gave me."

The little fox put his hands on his hips, looking as if it was a matter of course.

Jingchen pursed his lips and said calmly

"From now on, don't accept money from others casually."

The little fox tilted his head, a little confused.

"Why, Wu An is not someone else. Besides, this copper coin is his gift to apologize to me."

The slender jade-like joints held the candied haws, and Jingchen opened his lips and spoke slowly.

"If you find something you like in the future, just ask me for money. Wu An is still young and his salary is very small, so it would be inappropriate for you to ask him for it."

But there's nothing wrong with just eating a candied haws.

Although the little fox didn't understand, he nodded obediently.

"Okay, I won't do that next time."
