Wuxin didn't sit cross-legged as usual. He leaned against the tree and suddenly said, "That person is a princess in the palace. She said she fell in love with me at first sight and wants me to renounce my vows for her."
Wuxin was a Buddhist disciple and deeply loved by the people, but his great fame also brought him trouble.
Once, when the royal family went up the mountain to worship Buddha, the princess who accompanied them took a liking to him.
At that time, he was airing out Buddhist scriptures outside his meditation room when the man walked right over.
"What a handsome little monk, I like you."
Wuxin was never flustered or angry because of this statement. In his eyes, all beings are equal, regardless of gender.
However, the princess was too obsessed with him. She confessed her feelings to him and caused a huge scandal in the city in her pursuit of him.
The royal family values face, so the emperor told Shen Xinghe to leave with Wuxin without saying where to take her.
Later, Ah Li led a group to kidnap people, but Wu Xin only wanted to persuade them to lay down their weapons and become Buddhas on the spot.
So he went back to the mountain village with them.
When he arrived at the village, he discovered that it was a paradise, far removed from conflict, and its people were all kind and gentle.
Unfortunately, what is meant to happen cannot be avoided. This time, no sooner had Wuxin left Youjian Mountain Village than the princess's people arrived.
Ah Li lowered her head and remained silent. In the original timeline, the original owner was leading a group to abduct people, but they were driven back by Shen Xinghe, so she did not go to Youjian Mountain Village without intention.
However, not long after Shen Xinghe left with his men, the princess's men, disguised as bandits from Youjian Mountain Village, kidnapped Wuxin.
Wu Xin became the princess's secret lover, someone she couldn't have in public.
Shen Xinghe could sense that the people the princess sent were different from those bandits who were all show and no substance. Therefore, his bandit suppression was also somewhat deceptive. Instead of attacking the stronghold, he changed his identity and entered Youjian Stronghold to inquire about Wuxin's whereabouts.
?
At this moment, Wuxin looked in Ah Li's direction and said, "Zhou Li."
Ahri looked over, "What?"
"do you like me?"
"ah?"
Wuxin pulled open his monk's robe, which was half-undone and loosely draped over his arm. He lowered his head and said, "Take me."
His words were like a sudden clap of thunder in a clear blue sky.
Ahri was shocked, but she stood still and said, "What's wrong with you? Just because you were tricked by the princess once, you're giving up on yourself? I consider you a friend. If you act like this, I'll be in a very difficult position."
Wuxin fell silent, not even bothering to pull his clothes up, but instead sat there like a jade statue.
Ah Li sighed deeply, but she didn't move or leave.
Wuxin waited for a long time before slowly raising his head and noticing that Ahri was throwing small branches into the fire, her gaze not falling on him.
Since he received the title of Buddha's disciple, many people have come to him. Their eyes show respect, while others show lust. Only this person treated him as an ordinary person when they met him.
He felt comfortable with her.
Today he was captured by the princess's men. The princess forced him to return to secular life, forced him to eat meat, forced him to drink alcohol, and even made him so intimate with her.
He broke his vow.
How can he still have the audacity to call himself a Buddhist disciple?
Wu Xin closed his eyes briefly, tears streaming down his face, but he kept his head down, unwilling to let anyone see him like this.
After an unknown amount of time, Ah Li moved. She went over, pulled Wu Xin's clothes up a bit, and helped him put them on.
Wuxin opened his eyes and found that Ahri's eyes were clear, like a still pool of water.
Ahri said, "Three months, until your hair grows back. If you haven't changed your mind and still want to be with me, then I'll take you."
Wuxin felt a tightness in his chest, and the tears that hadn't subsided welled up again. He raised his hand and hugged Ah Li, choking back sobs, "I didn't want to back then, why did she force me?"
Ah Li didn't offer any words of comfort, but simply patted his back quietly.
Wuxin was skilled in martial arts, but the princess was surrounded by top-notch martial arts masters. After being captured by the princess, Wuxin was given the Ten Fragrant Soft Bone Powder.
He couldn't resist and could only watch helplessly as that person did what he did to him.
However, at the last moment, she came and saved him.
At this moment, Ahri raised her hand and pressed Wuxin's sleeping acupoint.
Wuxin was gently laid down by Ahri and fell asleep.
When it was fully light, Wuxin woke up and felt something strange on the top of his head. He raised his hand and touched it.
He now has a head of long hair.
Not far away, Ah Li had also changed out of his red clothes and dressed as a scholar, with a carriage beside him.
At this moment, Ahri turned her head and looked over, saying, "Awake?"
Without thinking, he instinctively wanted to clasp his hands together, but he didn't. He stood up and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Not long, only three days."
"What about my hair?"
Wuxin thought he had slept for three months and that his hair had grown back.
It was only because Wuxin slept long enough that Ahri had time to prepare these things.
Ahri said, "It's a wig. The princess has ordered a manhunt for us, saying I stole a treasure from her palace, so I made a slight alteration for you."
Wuxin didn't care about his appearance at the moment. He looked at Ah Li and said, "I'm the one who dragged you into this."
"Okay, so from now on you have to listen to me. I'm your husband, and you're my wife. Don't give anything away."
After saying this, Ah Li walked to Wu Xin's side and reached out his hand to her, saying, "My wife, I'll take you home."
Wuxin blushed. This person was extremely handsome whether he was wearing red or a gray scholar's robe.
Wuxin even tried calling out, "Husband."
Ahri coughed lightly. Wow, this person changed their tune pretty quickly.
Ah Li helped Wu Xin onto the carriage and asked, "Where are you going next?"
"I want to go find my master."
He wanted to tell his master that he wanted to return to secular life.
Ahri, driving the carriage, said, "Alright, then let's go find your master."
The carriage moved at a moderate pace. Ah Li had also prepared some dry food, including vegetarian buns and meat buns.
She's a carnivore.
However, just as Ah Li was about to eat the meat bun she was holding, Wu Xin came over and took a bite out of the meat bun in her hand.
Ah Li blinked and looked at the vegetarian bun in Wu Xin's hand.
Wuxin's ears turned slightly red as he said, "I said I wanted to return to secular life."
Eating by yourself is different from being forced to eat by someone else.
But Wuxin still felt nauseous, nauseous at the thought of meat.
Ah Li brought the meat bun to his lips, and then took another bite from the spot where he had unintentionally bitten. She could see the discomfort and disgust on his face.
Wuxin initially felt unwell, but when he noticed Ah Li's actions, the nausea subsided somewhat.
With a big mouthful of steamed bun, Ali mumbled, "It's delicious. You should try the vegetarian steamed buns from this place too, they're pretty good."
"Um."
Wuxin lowered his head to eat the vegetarian bun in his hand, thinking of Shen Xinghe.
The man was ordered to send him away, and now, no one knows where he is.
