Jin Wu smiled and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed." Then he reached out and squatted down to scratch Xiao Hei's chin. "Cute little cat, what's its name?"
"Nanshan."
"We both have mountains, so we seem to have a connection with Youshan Temple." Jin Wu stood up and asked, "Donor Fan, do you have something to ask me?"
"Yes, she is Ah Yu. Bing Nandong and I came here to ask for help from the master. What's his name?" Fan Zhiyi scratched his head. "It's to help her pass away. Her ashes are here with me now, but the place where they are buried is..."
"I do!" A Yu suddenly interrupted Fan Zhiyi and said excitedly.
Fan Zhiyi: “?” He looked at A Yu and saw that the little girl’s eyes were glued to Jin Wu.
Ah Yu repeated: "I do!"
What do you want? You want it, why is it different from what we agreed on? Fan Zhiyi was confused.
Bing Nandong was not surprised: "Let's go and put down her urn, and then go back to Tianyunmen."
On the way, Bing Nandong briefly told Jin Wu about A Yu. A Yu floated beside Fan Zhiyi, staring at Jin Wu intently.
Fan Zhiyi sighed: "Be more restrained, sister, this is a pure land of Buddhism."
Ah Yu held her face in her hands: "But he is really good-looking!"
"So you betrayed our plan because of this? I haven't had the chance to do anything about it yet."
"What's there to show off?" Ah Yu retorted. "It's a pity that when I died, I was just a young lady in seclusion, without even a favorite."
A Yu's urn was placed in a special place. Jin Wu said that he would recite sutras for her every morning in the future, and bury her in the cemetery on the back mountain after she is reincarnated.
Fan Zhiyi suddenly asked, "Can you pick a place with better scenery for Ayu?"
Jinwu thought for a moment and said, "I remember there's a peach tree in the back hill. Would it be nice to be there?"
Fan Zhiyi looked at A Yu, who nodded enthusiastically and whispered to Fan Zhiyi, "Master Jinwu is doing well."
Fan Zhiyi: “…”
The matter was thus settled with terrifying rapidity.
Jin Wu took Fan Zhiyi and the others to visit Youshan Temple and asked, "Nan Dong, I'm a little curious. Given your personality, why would you want to bring this female donor to see me?"
Bing Nandong sighed: "What a coincidence."
Jin Wu nodded: "Are you really not going to stay for one night? I'm afraid we won't see each other again after this separation."
"What's so difficult about meeting him? He's got legs. If you want to meet him, just go visit him directly."
Fan Zhiyi couldn't help laughing when he heard it. It was indeed Bing Nandong's speaking style, very direct.
Jin Wu also smiled. "That's quite reasonable. As long as you remember, I'm always here for you. By the way, the osmanthus flowers are blooming all over the mountain. Would you be willing to go and see them together and take a few branches back with you?"
Bing Nandong looked at Fan Zhiyi: "Do you want to go?"
"Let's go." Fan Zhiyi was very interested and it was a good opportunity to say goodbye to A Yu.
After going up the mountain, Bing Nandong was pulled out for tea and chat, and in the end only Fan Zhiyi and A Yu were left wandering around.
The mountain is full of sweet osmanthus flowers, and the fragrance spreads for ten miles. The tiny flowers are blown by the wind and fall to the ground, forming a wonderful sight.
A Yu asked Fan Zhiyi to pick some osmanthus branches and put them in the room when he returned to Tianyunmen.
After walking around for a while, Fan Zhiyi felt tired and lay on the grass, watching the white clouds flowing in the sky.
Ah Yu sat beside him, looking up at the sky with him, and said, "Fan Zhiyi, it would be great if I could meet you guys while I was still alive."
Fan Zhiyi felt a little sad, but still said, "It's good now. It's good to be able to meet you."
Ah Yu smiled at him and said, "That's true."
Then the two of them didn't speak for a long while. Suddenly, the little girl curled up into a ball and started crying. Fan Zhiyi was instantly startled and frantically tried to comfort her: "Don't cry, what's wrong?"
"I can't bear to leave Xiao Hei, I can't bear to leave you, I can't even imagine that I'm a little reluctant to leave Bing Nandong." A Yu's voice sounded even more broken.
Fan Zhiyi couldn't touch her, so he could only comfort her verbally: "It's okay, at least you can meet Master Jinwu."
Ah Yu sniffed and looked up: "That's right. Bing Nandong can't be relied on anymore. You and Xiao Hei, don't forget me. This osmanthus flower needs to be trimmed and put in the vase."
"Uh-huh."
"Fan Zhiyi, he's gone." Bing Nandong called him.
Fan Zhiyi picked up a large bunch of osmanthus branches and walked over with A Yu. He said to Master Jin Wu with some apology, "I'm sorry for picking such a large bunch of osmanthus flowers."
"Nothing to worry about. If there are flowers to be picked, pick them now." Jin Wu said with a smile, holding out his hand, "Would Mr. Fan be willing to give me a branch?"
"Of course." Fan Zhiyi picked a better one for him.
Jin Wu took it and held it against his chest. "Thank you very much. In that case, I have a question that I can't figure out. Could I ask Benefactor Fan?"
"Um?"
"If I have a very close relative and I know that his fate is to die, what should I do?"
Fan Zhiyi didn't understand: "Don't everyone die?"
Jin Wu shook his head. "Donor Fan's thinking is clear, but if his fate could be changed, so that he could leave without sadness and resentment, what would I do?"
Fan Zhiyi thought for a moment and said, "If it were me, I would save him."
"What if even if he escapes this time, he will still die from other causes?"
"Then save him again and again," Fan Zhiyi replied, "Just don't leave any regrets behind."
Jin Wu smiled and said, "Then Mr. Fan, you must hold on tight." Then he stopped talking about this topic and said to Bing Nandong, "Nandong, you have a good friend."
Fan Zhiyi seemed to see Bing Nandong smile.
"Then I won't see you off. Nandong, can you please give me some spirit stones?"
Ah, what?
Fan Zhiyi looked at Jin Wu and found that Jin Wu still acted like a hermit monk. Fan Zhiyi even suspected that he was hallucinating and did not suspect that he really said this.
He saw Bing Nandong take out the spirit stone from his arms and hand it to him. Jin Wu took it without even looking at it, and smiled at Fan Zhiyi with an especially upright smile: "I am also a layman, I need to eat too."
"Master, very insightful." Fan Zhiyi commented.
Jin Wudao said, "Nan Dong, don't you really consider staying here to become a monk and practice?"
"No."
Imago sighed, "Okay, okay."
Fan Zhiyi and Bing Nandong went down the mountain together. He looked back and saw Ah Yu following him reluctantly, as if wanting to say goodbye. He waved and said, "Don't see me off, Xiaoyu. If you're not satisfied in the future, you can come find me. Our agreement on this Feng Shui treasure land is valid for a long time."
Ah Yu also imitated him and waved: "I know, have a safe trip."
The wind was blowing violently, and Fan Zhiyi saw Jin Wu's robes being lifted high, but the wind penetrated the girl's body without raising a single speck of dust.
Today is a windy day.
