Chapter 1 A Fleeting Romance

"I'll give you one more chance. Tell me, do you like my face or my body?"

"I like them all..."

"Good boy... lie still..."

...

Xie Yunyu woke up at dawn, her mind blank for a moment.

The arm crossed across her chest was very prominent, and a leg was pressing down on her lower body...

Xie Yunyu turned her head with difficulty and saw a handsome face next to her.

This dead man looks even better up close.

He had a long head, high cheekbones, sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a prominent nose, delicate lips, and a red mole between his eyebrows.

Even with his eyes closed, he exudes a serene and detached aura, transcending the ordinary.

The aloofness and detachment of a Buddhist monk were fully embodied in him.

No wonder he grew up in a Buddhist temple!

Xie Yunyu shifted her body, unable to suppress a soft cry of pain, and looked at Xiao Ling beside her with a reproachful expression.

It's hard to imagine that someone who looks so detached from worldly affairs could be so frenzied in bed.

Recalling their passionate encounter the previous night, Xie Yunyu couldn't help but despise herself.

How did I end up sleeping with this person again in such a muddled way?

In her previous life, she was a beast of burden in a hospital, working overtime every day. Her resentment was heavier than that of a ghost. She had a boyfriend, but her resentment drove him away.

After exhausting himself to death, he was reborn into the Great Yong Dynasty, where he has been for eighteen years.

I inexplicably slept with the same person twice.

Moreover, both times the other party was given traditional Chinese medicine, and he was inexplicably captured and used as the antidote.

Perhaps it was Xie Yunyu's cry of pain that startled Xiao Ling, who moved slightly and frowned.

Xie Yunyu realized that the other person was about to wake up and knew something was wrong.

So she slowly moved the other person's hands and legs away, and quietly got up to pick up the clothes on the ground.

But they found that the clothes were either torn, dirty, or wet...

What a huge bed! The marks are quite blatant!

Picking up the wet clothes from the ground and barely covering his body, the dog picked up his shoes, his legs trembling, and crept towards the door.

As soon as Xie Yunyu got off the bed, the person on the bed opened his eyes, turned to the side, and watched Xie Yunyu get dressed.

Despite having a face that suggests a life free from worldly desires, he was now shirtless, his hair disheveled on the couch, with red marks on his neck, and the air still thick with the scent of lust...

The interplay of asceticism and lust, the entanglement of solemnity and allure, creates a sense of both contradiction and harmony.

It's just like the scene in the storybook where a handsome monk is bewitched by a fox spirit and loses his virginity.

Xie Yunyu was only focused on escaping and didn't notice Xiao Ling's situation at all. She opened the door, peeked in, and then left without hesitation.

Xiao Ling watched her retreating figure and murmured, "You always run away. Let's see where you run to this time."

...

Their ill-fated relationship dates back three years.

At that time, Xie Yunyu, as a daughter of an official who had transmigrated, lived a carefree life until the age of fifteen.

Then, my parents started pressuring me to go on blind dates...

Fifteen years old! A junior high school student, not yet an adult, and their body hasn't fully developed yet.

But that's how it was in ancient times, and you can't go against the rules.

In order to escape the fate of early marriage and arranged marriage, Xie Yunyu fought with her parents for more than half a year before coming up with a brilliant idea.

The old master of the Xie family was the Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince. Due to his advanced age, he retired and lived in seclusion in the Wangyue Villa on Qingliang Mountain.

Xie Yunyu then volunteered to go up the mountain to take care of her grandfather.

Naturally, her parents were unwilling, so Xie Yunyu teamed up with her twin brother Xie Yunman to outwit and outmaneuver them.

Finally, I was able to reach Qingliang Mountain as I had hoped.

The mountains next to each other are called Wan'an Mountain, and there is a temple on the mountain called Xiyun Temple, which was a royal temple.

As soon as Xie Yunyu arrived at the mountain, Old Master Xie gave her instructions:

"The royal temple is frequented by nobles and is always guarded by the Imperial Guards. Do not go to that mountain unless necessary."

Xie Yunyu nodded in agreement.

Between Qingliang Mountain and Wan'an Mountain, there is a gentle stream that extends downwards in a stepped fashion.

Each small drop forms a waterfall, accompanied by a small, clear pool below.

On the section connecting Wangyue Bieyuan and Xiyun Zen Temple, someone built a low-water bridge next to the Bitan.

On the side of the flooded bridge next to Qingliang Mountain, there is also a pavilion with excellent views.

Xie Yunyu strictly followed his grandfather's instructions and was not allowed to go to Wan'an Mountain.

Therefore, Xie Yunyu would only sit in this viewing pavilion for a while each time she came, to rest her feet or enjoy the breeze.

On this day, she came to the pavilion and found that the stone table inside had been replaced with a new one, and a chessboard was carved on it.

Bored, Xie Yunyu began to fumble around on the chessboard.

Suddenly she noticed that the intersections on the chessboard were of varying depths, with several being noticeably deeper.

After careful examination, it was discovered that these deep intersections, when connected, form the pattern of the Big Dipper.

So Xie Yunyu pressed these spots.

Suddenly the stone table opened with a clatter, revealing the stone pillar supporting it, which was half hollow and clearly used for everyday storage.

Xie Yunyu had heard his grandfather say that he had played chess here with Master Tianyi, the abbot of Xiyun Temple.

He then wondered if this stone table could have been made by Master Tianyi.

Xie Yunyu had never met Master Tianyi before, and since they had this connection, she decided to give the master a small gift.

He put the half-bag of pine nuts he had just roasted into the table, then put the table back on its original state, stood up, and left.

Half a month later, Xie Yunyu returned to the place, opened the table, and sure enough, her half bag of pine nuts was gone.

Even the sky-blue cloth bag used to hold the pine nuts was gone.

Inside, however, was a brownish-red bag commonly used in temples, containing a string of eighteen beads made of agarwood.

Xie Yunyu picked up the bracelet, smelled it, and found it to be the finest sandalwood fragrance.

He put the items into his crossbody bag, then took out a packet of plum candy and put it in.

Five days later, Xie Yunyu returned, but the plum candy was gone, replaced by a strangely shaped piece of chicken-blood stone.

Xie Yunyu took the bloodstone, then touched her handbag and put in a string of thirty-six jade beads that her grandfather had given her.

Five days later, Xie Yunyu came over, and the jade beaded string was gone.

This time, it contains some paints for painting and a painting.

Xie Yunyu opened the painting and found that it was not colored yet; it was only black and white.

Xie Yunyu opened the painting and started applying colors to it.

Looking at the green and blue scene before her, Xie Yunyu was very satisfied.

Five days later, Xie Yunyu went to find that the painting was gone, and there was a new painting in the room, depicting the scenery of the viewing pavilion.

Xie Yunyu put away the painting, took out a piece of paper and wrote: "Thousands of mountains have trees, thousands of mountains are green."

Next time I come, I'll see it says: "A hundred birds sing in the forest, a hundred birds rejoice."

And so, they went back and forth, chatting about everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting to poetry and songs.

Xie Yunyu found Master Tianyi's soul quite interesting.

This situation lasted from autumn until the following spring, for about half a year.

Xie Yunyu never got to see Master Tianyi.

The dragon raises its head on the second day of the second lunar month.

Xie Yunyu went to the mountain to pick wild vegetables. On her way back, she encountered a sudden spring rain and ran into the pavilion to take shelter from the rain.

But then they saw a person standing at the viewing point, painting in the rain.

The man was dressed in plain clothes, tall and handsome in profile, and his sleeves fluttered like cranes in the mountain breeze.

Even just standing there casually, she exudes beauty and grace.

Just by looking at his back, you can tell that this person is good-looking.

Xie Yunyu did not disturb him, but looked at the stone table, where she saw a tea set and four cups.

Xie Yunyu moved the cup and opened the stone table, only to find it completely empty.

The creaking sound from the stone table startled the other party.

The man turned around and looked at Xie Yunyu with a calm gaze.

When Xie Yunyu looked up, she also saw the scenery in the painting.

The two exclaimed in surprise:

“It’s you.”

After that, the two looked at each other and fell into a long silence.

This person has a handsome appearance, with a red mole between his eyebrows, a face like jade, bright eyes, a prominent mouth and nose, and red lips and white teeth.

He truly stands out from the crowd, his beauty unparalleled.

Tsk tsk, having lived two lives, Xie Yunyu has never seen such a stunningly handsome man!

Later generations of movie stars and male models were often inferior to him.

The main reason is that this person is not only noble, but also carries a sense of indifference as if he has transcended worldly concerns.

Xie Yunyu was not bad-looking either. Her face was like a full moon, her eyes were like distant mountains, her eyebrows were like ink paintings, and her lips were like vermilion. She was like a blooming peony.

But at this moment, they had just finished digging for wild vegetables and then it started raining. Their shoes and skirts were covered in mud and water, making them look quite disheveled.

Even the most beautiful color will be discounted by 50%.

My darlings:

This is a story about male-female love!

The aloof Buddhist monk is just a facade; in reality, both the male and female protagonists are lustful at first sight!

Neither of them was reserved, aloof, or abstinent...

This book is not suitable for those with deeply ingrained feudal ideas or who advocate for female virtue; please look elsewhere!

The author says:

From the very beginning, my book has had a studio that created a bunch of accounts to give me all sorts of bad reviews and gang up to smear me.

It doesn't have a big impact, it's just disgusting.

For normal readers, if you don't like it, just leave and let's leave each other alone...

An author's life is also a life...
