◎He would never allow her to like someone else.◎
Since arriving at Wuyin Temple, Anjiu has been seeking out Feichen to ask about Buddhist principles every day, showing his extreme piety towards Buddhism.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she had other intentions.
Within a few days, the monks in Wuyin Temple discovered that their disciple seemed to be harassed by the foreign pilgrim. He spent the whole day either flirting with him or asking him all kinds of questions, and his diligence was so embarrassing.
"Fei Chen, don't pay attention to that female donor. She has bad intentions towards you. You are so ignorant and have never seen what the women down the mountain look like. Don't be fooled by her." One day, Fei Chen's uncle took Fei Chen aside and gave him a lecture.
Wuyin Temple does not participate in the affairs of the underworld, but the monks in the temple often go down the mountain to travel and experience the tribulations of the worldly world.
The Buddha said that only those who have experienced the worldly affairs without changing their hearts are true Buddhas.
Unfortunately, every time the monks go down the mountain for training, some of them never come back.
Some were dazzled by the worldly prosperity, while others were bewitched by the women living down the mountain.
Uncle Master has seen many examples like this.
He once had a senior brother who was extremely gifted. He fell in love with a seductive woman at the foot of the mountain. He ignored his master's teachings and the friendship between fellow disciples and forced himself to leave the temple just to live with the seductive woman.
The uncle didn't want to see Feichen end up like this.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Fei Chen said, "Uncle Master, I can feel that An Tanyue does not love me. And she is indeed very proficient in Buddhism. I have talked with her for a few days and benefited a lot. It's not that she is pestering me. Please stop talking about other women and destroying their reputation."
When the uncle heard this, he immediately felt that Fei Chen was deeply trapped.
The woman didn't look like a good girl, how could she know anything about Buddhist scriptures? She was probably just trying to deceive Feichen, but his nephew was ignorant of the ways of the world and didn't understand the cunning and treacherous people down there, so he actually believed her.
The uncle watched Fei Chen leave with great sorrow. The girl in red was standing not far away, looking at them. She had just seen the two of them talking, so she was waiting there.
Seeing Feichen walking towards her, the girl's eyebrows suddenly curved, and her pretty little face was filled with a brilliant smile, so bright that people dared not look directly at her.
"Alas!" The uncle sighed and left.
He couldn't convince Feichen, so he decided to tell Senior Brother Zhenyi about this and ask him to discipline this disciple personally.
"Master Feichen, was that your uncle just now? What did he say to you?"
"An Tanyue, I told you don't have to call me Master." The white-robed monk clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name to her.
The girl smiled slyly and said, "I also said, if you don't call me Danyue, I won't call you Master."
Upon hearing this, Fei Chen could only shake his head helplessly and sighed, "It's against etiquette, I can't do that."
An Jiu looked at him with a smile and said nothing.
She found Feichen to be quite interesting. Although he looked like a noble lady, he was actually very simple and a little inflexible, like an old scholar and a conservative.
"An Tanyue, Feichen doesn't know why you have been deliberately approaching me these days?"
A question suddenly rang in his ears. An Jiu subconsciously raised his eyes and met a pair of dark and clear eyes.
Those eyes were cold and indifferent, just like the Tianchi Lake on the top of the snow-capped mountains, which had never been visited by anyone, but reflected every inch of sunlight, clean and free from dust.
Being looked at by these eyes, An Jiu felt as if he was completely exposed and was seen through.
"Has what An Tanyue wanted to do been accomplished now?"
The monk was wearing a white cassock, as if covered with frost and snow. At this moment, he asked her in a light tone, just like an immortal god asking a mortal with heavy desires.
An Jiu opened his mouth, habitually trying to cover up, but after a moment of silence, he turned his face away and smiled bitterly: "How did you know?"
The two walked aimlessly in the temple. Wuyin Temple covered a very large area. Under the eaves hung ancient and heavy copper bells, which made empty and distant sounds in the mountain breeze.
Fei Chen's voice was like the gurgling spring water in the mountains, coming calmly: "An Tanyue has a very deep attainment in Buddhist principles. The questions you asked me, in fact, I already have the answers in my heart. If that's the case, then you still come to ask me every day, you must have another purpose."
"As someone you've used, may I know what the purpose of this is?"
An Jiu didn't speak for a long time, and Fei Chen didn't urge her.
There was silence all around. After a long moment, the girl's low voice rang out: "Sorry... I was angry with someone, and I didn't mean to take advantage of you. I'm happy to have your different opinions after discussing Buddhist principles with you these days."
There was no surprise on Feichen's face, his dark eyes were calm and still: "I understand."
He stopped and turned to her and said, "An Tanyue, don't feel guilty. Feichen also has his own selfish motives. Your Buddhist concepts are very novel. We both get what we need and there is no debt."
An Jiu raised his head, all the gloom in his expression disappeared, and he asked happily: "Then we are still friends?"
The white-robed monk's cold brows softened slightly, as if ice and snow had melted, and he said softly, "Of course."
He suddenly turned his head and motioned An Jiu to look over: "Tanyue An, this tree is the treasure of Wuyin Temple. You can make a wish to it, and your wish may come true."
An Jiu followed his gaze and a huge pine tree came into view. The trunk of the pine tree was extremely thick, and its crown blocked the entire sky and cast a huge shadow on the ground.
What attracted the most attention were the countless red ribbons hanging on the branches above the head, which hung on the pine branches and fluttered in the wind.
"Are these the twin pine trees? Why is there only one?" She widened her eyes in curiosity.
Fei Chen said: "There is another one in another place. If you want to go there, I can take you there."
As he spoke, he led her to a small house beside a pine tree. The house was empty, but inside were pens, ink, and strips of newly cut red cloth.
An Jiu picked up a piece of red cloth, held the brush, and asked Fei Chen: "Master Fei Chen, have you made a wish for this tree?"
Fei Chen: "No, I have nothing to look forward to in this life, nor do I have any resentment or regret."
In other words, his life had been too smooth, so there was nothing he wanted, and naturally he had no wishes.
An Jiu sighed secretly, perhaps only Feichen could reach such a transcendent state.
She is a vulgar person and it is impossible for her to be free of desires.
As she thought about it, she picked up her pen and wrote a line of words. After she finished writing, she asked Feichen: "What should we do next?"
Fei Chen: "If you don't mind, you can give it to me and I'll hang it up for you."
Two figures, one red and one white, stood under the tree, the white one was tall and the red one was slim.
The white-robed monk took a bright red silk ribbon from the red-skirted girl, pointed his toes, and flew up, landing lightly on the pine tree, and tied the red ribbon covered with ink stains to a pine branch.
The girl tilted her head back, watching the scene intently, her pair of bright peach blossom eyes curved into little crescents.
"Master Feichen, it's tied up, please come down quickly!" Her voice was crisp and tender, and was blown far away by the mountain wind.
Fei Chen gracefully descended from the tree like a crane and stood in front of An Jiu.
"An Tanyue, someone is watching us." Fei Chen said calmly.
"I know, don't worry about him." An Jiu's expression didn't change when he said this.
"Since you like him, why do you do this?" Fei Chen asked puzzledly.
Looking at his eyes full of doubt, An Jiu smiled and said, "You don't need to know this. The relationship between men and women is unpredictable. I will go back today and write you a scripture. It is a unique copy that my grandfather has treasured for many years. How about it as a thank you gift for your cooperation with me?"
Upon hearing this, Fei Chen immediately clasped his hands together, with a rare faint smile on his lips: "Then I'll trouble An Tanyue. An Tanyue can make use of me more."
When a serious person speaks humorously, it seems more unusual. An Jiu covered his mouth and laughed.
This scene fell into the eyes of the young man in white not far away, like a sharp sword, piercing his eyes.
He closed his eyes slightly, turned his head and said to Ah Qi: "Go back."
Ah Qi hesitated for a long time to speak. He had finally persuaded the young master to come under the sacred tree to pray for a marriage partner, but he did not expect to see such a scene. He felt puzzled and aggrieved for a moment.
Didn't the young master and Miss An just have one quarrel? How did it come to this?
And how come An Jiu became so close to Buddhist disciple Feichen in just a few days?
Ah Qi really wanted to go up and ask An Jiu directly, but since the young master had spoken, he had no choice but to return the same way as the young master had instructed.
"Sir, why don't you go and apologize to Miss An and buy her some gifts to appease her..."
Ah Qi was really worried that if his son continued the cold war with An Jiu, An Jiu would run away with someone else.
Although Feichen is a monk and cannot be with Anjiu, he can also return to secular life, right? If he really falls in love with Anjiu, is he willing to give up his desire to seek Buddha for her?
Think about Ah Qi. Even though he was just a servant, he was very concerned about the feelings of his young master.
Pei Ji said calmly: "No need."
After a pause, he continued, "Go down the mountain and buy some jewelry that women like. They should be brightly colored, and gemstones are best. She likes rubies and emeralds, not pearls."
When Ah Qi heard this, he immediately agreed happily: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
What do you call this? This is called saying one thing and doing another!
I thought the young master was really indifferent as he looked, but I didn't expect he was just pretending. He said no, but didn't he still go buy things?
Ah Qi didn't know that Pei Ji really didn't intend to coax anyone.
However, Pei Ji didn't coax her, but he didn't say that Fei Yi wouldn't coax her either.
Pei Ji naturally saw An Jiu and Fei Chen approaching, and the sense of crisis in his heart was no less than Ah Qi had imagined.
He had to make sure that she still liked Fei Yi, as for Pei Ji... it didn't matter.
He invested so much energy in her, disguising his identity, his face, his voice, and dressing up as she liked, all just to cater to her preferences.
He treated her tenderly and attentively, saved her from danger several times, and even gave up stealing the secret book for her.
Now that the secret book has fallen into the hands of the Demon Cult, his plans have to change again. The known future has become an unknown and is completely out of his control.
Besides, she had loved him so much, saying over and over again that she wanted to marry him, kissing him passionately, and talking about love in the midst of the noise of the crowd...
Is all this just a joke?
If she really falls in love with someone else, not only will all the arrangements made for so long be wasted, but the detoxification plan will also fail.
Pei Ji would not allow such a thing to happen.
He would never allow her to like anyone else.
She just needs to like Feiyi.
Even if I closed my eyes, the two red and white figures under the tree kept flashing before my eyes.
The hand holding the folding fan was holding it with such force that the finger bones turned white.
The author has something to say:
Pei Pei: How can she like someone else? Was it all fake when she said she liked me? QAQ
Miss: Hehe, it’s fake~
