Chapter 320 Gu Nan’s Dream of Dharma Barrier
Gu Nan didn't know why he had such a question.
Isn’t this good?
Isn’t that enough?
They are the most ordinary, yet the most extraordinary, couple in the world. What seems difficult to ordinary people today is easy for them. Their long life span is simply to enrich their lives and enjoy joy.
And Junyi can do anything for her, even give birth to a child.
What else is she not satisfied with?
No... maybe it was because everything was so perfect that she forgot one thing.
What did she forget?
"Anan, Anan..."
Who is calling her?
Gu Nan struggled to open her heavy eyelids and saw a rough hand reaching out and touching her forehead.
"You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?" The owner of the hand asked, "How do you feel? Are you okay?"
Gu Nan opened his eyes repeatedly and finally saw the person in front of him clearly. It was Aunt Wang from the east end of the village, a very good elder.
She looked around and Junyi was not there. Everything in the room was the same as yesterday, and it looked familiar to her.
"I saw from a distance that your door was not closed. I don't know where your boyfriend went. You are so careless." Aunt Wang muttered.
Gu Nan sat up and shook his dizzy head. "It's okay. I was a little sleepy. The door must have been opened by the wind. Thank you for your concern."
Aunt Wang asked a few more questions, and seeing that she answered fluently and with clear thinking, she left with peace of mind.
Gu Nan got out of bed and opened the window. The autumn morning breeze brought a damp coolness. Calculating the days, it was almost time for frost.
She looked out the window and saw that there were no wild camellias planted on the open space, no flower beds fenced off, and no trays full of wild flowers and fruits drying in the sun.
Are you dreaming?
Such a real dream.
Gu Nan sat down at the desk and realized belatedly that she really had sleep?
How long did she sleep this time?
The footsteps came closer and closer, there was a muffled "bang" sound, and then the door was pushed open.
Gu Nan looked back and saw Chunyi standing at the door, dusting himself off. He walked in after dusting himself off. He glanced at the incubator as he passed by, then casually reminded him, "The eggs haven't been turned yet today."
Gu Nan treasured these eggs very much. She marked each one and turned them over regularly. By looking at the position of the mark, she could tell whether she had turned them over and how many times.
Gu Nan's eyes fell on the pile of brown leather at the door. After a moment of trance, he said, "I think I fell asleep."
"Well, I didn't wake you up because you were so sound asleep." Junyi was looking for a pair of scissors in the drawer. Thinking she was still asleep, he smiled and said, "Do you want to sleep more? I want to make a straw raincoat. Do you want to join me?"
Straw raincoat, there was a huge straw raincoat in the dream.
Gu Nan looked at his smile with a complicated look.
Junyi noticed that she looked a little strange, so he walked over and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Gu Nan told the truth, "I feel a little dizzy."
Chunyi held Gu Nan's hand and sent out spiritual power to travel through her meridians. Finding nothing unusual, she breathed a sigh of relief. "It must be because she lost too much soul power yesterday, and since we just got married, she's not used to it for a while."
His hands were broad and warm, with calluses on his fingertips. They were hard and a little prickly, but particularly soothing.
It’s no wonder that the young monks in Fayuan Temple admire him so much. He does have extraordinary abilities and unique magic.
Gu Nan asked, "Why did you think of making a straw raincoat?"
Junyi explained: "I found a palm tree in the mountains. It rains a lot here in spring and autumn, so it's perfect for making a raincoat."
Chunyi is a cultivator with a strong body, immune to water and fire. He doesn't need a straw raincoat to shelter from the rain. He is just trying to integrate into this small village and turn himself into an ordinary person.
Gu Nan nodded in understanding and moved a small stool to sit next to the brown leather.
She separated the palm fibers, twisted them into ropes, and together with Chunyi, sewed the scattered palm skins into a heavy and familiar straw raincoat, which she finally hung on the wall of the guest room.
Gu Nan looked at the straw raincoat that could cover two people, and an indescribable feeling of suffocation came over him.
Her mouth was faster than her brain, "Junyi, I want a vase."
Junyi was a little confused by her sudden request, but he didn't ask any more questions and agreed, "Okay."
The next day, Gu Nan saw a small fir vase on the windowsill.
The vase, carved from new wood, was only half a palm long, with a round belly that was polished very smoothly.
At this moment, there is a bunch of three-veined asters in the vase, and a small sprig of mint is sandwiched between a bunch of lavender flowers, emitting a faint fragrance.
Gu Nan's heart sank completely.
The straw raincoat and the vase fulfilled the description exactly, without any error.
That was not an ordinary dream, it was her "Dharma barrier dream".
It was telling Gu Nan about her and Chun Yi's future.
She had no future in continuing the mission.

"Do you like your current life?" Gu Nan asked.
The oil lamp on the table was about to go out. Gu Nan picked up a pair of scissors and picked up the wick that had fallen into the oil. The weak flame jumped a few times and soon became bright.
Chunyi was copying Buddhist scriptures in the dim light of the fire. Hearing this, he stopped writing, looked up at Gu Nan, gave him a satisfied smile, and replied bluntly, "I like it."
In just one month, Junyi has changed a lot.
He laughed more often and talked more. Gu Nan saw him chatting with villagers several times, talking and laughing while making agreements.
He walked out of the lonely and deserted Buddhist temple, gradually integrated into the secular world, and established his own social circle.
Just like the camellia outside the window, it was transplanted from the mountains to the yard. Its developed and tenacious roots quickly adapted to the new environment, and gradually took root deeper and deeper in the land.
So he asked Gu Nan a question he would never ask before, "Can we always stay like this?"
"What?"
"Like ordinary people, work from sunrise to sunset and rest from sunset to sunrise, without thinking about becoming a Buddha or a saint."
Gu Nan: "You don't want to become a Buddha anymore?"
Junyi shook his head slightly, "What about you?"
Gu Nan was stunned.
Junyi gave up on becoming a Buddha and chose to stay with her and be an ordinary couple.
What about her?
Are you willing?
What else is she going to give up?
Gu Nan lowered his head and looked at Chunyi. His cold and handsome face was blurred and gentle in the dim light. The lingering affection in his eyes was like melted honey, flowing stickily.
He smiled and looked at her expectantly, waiting for her answer.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the scene before her eyes turned into a small old photo, pale and heavy, making her breathless.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
She could hear her own heartbeat, getting faster and faster.
She remembered what she was giving up.
What she gave up was her chance to go home.
"Gu Nan..."
Gu Nan felt his eyes go dark and the world spin.
The next second, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Junyi's face enlarged before her eyes. A warm, rough hand gently stroked her face. She looked closely, and those imposing phoenix eyes were filled with worry. "Are you having a nightmare?"
Gu Nan looked dazed, "Chun Yi..."
"I'm here." Junyi sat up and hugged Gu Nan into his arms. His strong and broad chest was like a wall, and with a single arm, he embraced Gu Nan tightly.
Gu Nan listened to the strong heartbeat beside his ears and slowly closed his eyes.
Her mind was clearer than ever, and all the details she had overlooked jumped together automatically to form an obvious fact.
It's time for her to go home.
