Chapter 285 Sleeping
A dozen or so boys from the Wei family walked over, and one of them, a very burly man, spoke first: "Brother Yin, the old man asked you to fetch the lamp."
Wei Yin responded, then looked at Yan Kui: "Stay here for a while, I'll go get something."
Seeing that she had nothing to do and was quite relaxed, Yan Kui nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Wei Yin flicked her forehead in an annoyed tone: "Don't run around."
A few years ago, Mr. Wei obtained a lamp from Lingtai Mountain. Master Huiyun personally carved patterns on the lamp and then offered it to the Buddha statue in the temple for more than 600 days. He named the lamp the "Prajna Lamp".
Now that the required number of recitations has been completed, Wei Yin needs to personally take it home and hang it up.
The process of retrieving the lamp was complicated and required quiet, so Wei Yincai didn't let Yan Kui come along.
Inside the temple were people related to the Wei family, all lined up in an orderly fashion in the courtyard. Wei Yin stood at the front of the crowd, his posture upright, humble and polite, his arms still hanging at his sides, with Master Huiyun's complex scriptures in his ears.
In the backyard, once everyone had left, Yan Kui resumed her previous half-lying position.
The leaves above the bench were layered and overlapping, completely blocking out the sunlight.
A clear bird song drifted from the treetops, and a tabby cat, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, leaped onto the ceramic jar and quickly licked away the rainwater inside.
Yan Kui, who was happily watching entertainment gossip in the backyard, suddenly had the sound of intermittent chanting of scriptures coming from the front yard into her mind.
A wave of drowsiness washed over me, and my head suddenly felt heavy and dizzy.
Yan Kui couldn't help but fall asleep.
…………
Wei Yin stood there for as long as Master Huiyun recited the scriptures, until the sun began to slowly set, at which point he finally encountered the [Prajna Lamp] born in his name.
Huiyun smiled kindly, yet with a hint of mystery: "This lamp is yours, but the fruit is not with you."
Wei Yin's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Master Huiyun with a question in his eyes, but Huiyun remained silent and turned to leave.
Wei Yin didn't understand these things, so he simply stopped asking and walked out with the lantern.
All he wants to do right now is find someone.
Almost four hours have passed since he came out to get the light.
But in those four hours, he didn't even see Yan Kui's shadow.
Something's not right.
Pushing open the back gate, Wei Yin saw the person still fast asleep on the bench and breathed a slight sigh of relief.
But when Wei Yin squatted down in front of the bench, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
At this moment, Yan Kui's eyes were closed, her brows were furrowed, and her breathing was rapid.
Even her usually pink lips had lost their color.
"Yan Kui".
Wei Yin called her softly, but she didn't wake up.
"Baby, wake up."
Wei Yin frowned and leaned down to touch her cool cheek with his hand.
Sensing she might be having a nightmare, Wei Yin gently shook her shoulders, saying, "Baby..."
No matter how much they called, Yan Kui remained unresponsive, as if she couldn't perceive any signals from the outside world.
Wei Yin felt a pang of panic, so he picked the person up and carried them quickly towards the main road outside the courtyard.
"Drive here, to the hospital!"
Wei Yin shouted at the drivers in the row of cars, his voice sharp. Looking at Yan Kui, who was still sleeping soundly with a pale face, in his arms, even Huang Maomao was frightened.
The group quickly opened the car door. Wei Xian's steps were heavy and hurried. The unresponsive person in his arms was like a hot shrapnel embedded in the center of his consciousness, burning away all his reason.
