Kawakami Mizuki

Yi Linchuan was in the hospital when he saw Lin Chuyi again.She was lying sickly on the hospital bed, her arm hanging on the drip was weakly draped aside, half of the remaining medicine bottles and empty medicine bottles were hung high on the iron frame beside the bed, her long hair was scattered The next face was terribly pale, and when it saw they were coming, it smiled weakly.

Yi Chuwen, who led Yi Linchuan, put the fruit on the table beside him and asked, "Is it any better?"

She nodded.

"He said he wanted to see you, so I brought him here," Yi Chuwen didn't plan to stay for a long time, and planned to leave after a brief greeting.Lin Chuyi nodded, and handed him two or three pages of paper that he had prepared earlier, with a hoarse voice: "Be careful, the people under your hands may not be clean."

Yi Chuwen unfolded the folded paper, glanced at it roughly, and was slightly startled.There are some manpower and assets available on paper, and they are not small.Lin Chuyi was only born in a small family, and with that kind of background, it is impossible to have such power.not to mention--

"You believe me that much?"

Lin Chuyi said casually, "It's all about putting all your eggs in one basket, I believe I can't see the wrong person."

Yi Linchuan noticed that when Lin Chuyi spoke, his fingers on the white sheet twitched.

When parting, Yi Linchuan proposed to stay with Lin Chuyi.It was indeed inconvenient for Yi Chuwen to bring Yi Linchuan, so he nodded and agreed, saying that he would pick him up at six o'clock in the evening, and then left.

Yi Linchuan handed Lin Chuyi a glass of water: "Is your throat inflamed?"

Lin Chuyi was a little surprised at the child's keen insight, and couldn't help being curious: "How old are you? Don't you need to go to school?"

"Eight years old, now on summer vacation."

Lin Chuyi remembered that when she was a child in summer, her homework would always be delayed until the last day, and she couldn't help showing a smile. She wanted to ask Yi Linchuan if she had finished her homework, but when she was about to speak, her throat felt like a needle-like pain, so she simply shut up.

Yi Linchuan took the water glass she had finished drinking and put it aside: "No matter what you and Yi Chuwen are going to do, don't bet on yourself."

Lin Chuyi looked at Yi Linchuan in surprise. The child stayed out of the matter, but he could reason out the cause and effect of the matter with his keen insight.From this point of view, he took the initiative to ask to stay with her, probably because he had sensed something and knew that it was inconvenient for Yi Chuwen to take him with him.

Are all the kids these days so powerful... Lin Chuyi suddenly felt like the waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves ahead, and the waves before died on the beach.

Lin Chuyi couldn't help teasing him: "Why do you call your brother like that, you're not good."

Yi Linchuan was startled, and turned his head awkwardly: "It's none of your business."

Lin Chuyi smiled, stopped answering, took a story book and handed it to him to relieve boredom, while she closed her eyes and meditated.

When Yi Chuwen came to pick up Yi Linchuan, Lin Chuyi explained that they would meet at the Drinking Water Pavilion tomorrow morning, and then he checked out of the ward.Yi Chuwen just nodded. Everyone is an adult, and they have their own sense of proportion, so they don't say much.Instead, the little girl, the nurse who took care of her, advised her to stay in the hospital for another day of observation with some concern: "When you were sent in, you were so dizzy with fever that you almost didn't burn like a fool. No matter what you do, your body is the most important thing." of."

Lin Chuyi smiled and shook her head: "I understand what you said. Don't worry, I will pay attention."

The next day, in the drinking water pavilion, the three sat in the private room on the second floor.Revisiting the old place, the sense of loss of missing someone suddenly became obvious, Yi Chuwen left Yi Linchuan behind and left in a hurry.

Lin Chuyi asked Yi Linchuan if he had eaten, and after getting an affirmative answer, he nodded, "I'll take you to a place today."

The symptoms of sore throat have improved a lot, but I still feel a little uncomfortable, like a thorn in my throat that hurts up and down, so Lin Chuyi didn't say much, and the two arrived at the destination in silence.

Yi Linchuan looked up and saw that more than half a hundred stone stairs in front of him led to a majestic mountain gate, with four inscriptions "Fadi Majestic" painted on the top with gold lacquer.There are sporadic tourists, walking in groups of twos and threes, each with their own worries and joys.

He followed Lin Chuyi up, but was stopped by two or three men in suits and leather shoes and asked her if she wanted to tell her fortune, Lin Chuyi shook her head, walked around them and continued on.

After walking through more than a hundred steps and entering the door, Yi Linchuan was still a child after all, panting a little behind Lin Chuyi.Lin Chuyi took his hand and slowed down her pace.On both sides of the entrance are roughly symmetrical two pools of clear water. The exquisite rockery is layered on top of each other. The water splashes down along the mountain, and when it falls into the pool, the water ripples in circles.The clear water is crystal clear, but there is no living thing in it.

Lin Chuyi suddenly said, "When I first came here, it was just a dilapidated temple."

Yi Linchuan was a little startled, but didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Lin Chuyi didn't seem to have any intention of waiting for his answer. She pointed to the spring water and said, "At that time, it was just a small silt pond. There were some long-lived turtles, the smallest of which were only the size of a coin. There were a few water lilies scattered in the pond. , The stone crevices on the edge of the pool are covered with green moss."

She looked up at the front hall in the distance, the red, blue, yellow and green paintings under the eaves were extremely bright.A huge tripod is placed in front of the hall, its surface is filled with incense ash, and incense sticks of different lengths are inserted. The tourists who come and go worship the sky devoutly and respectfully burn three sticks of incense.She led Yi Linchuan to the side, took three sticks of incense, lit them in a dark box with a fire source on the side, and handed them to Yi Linchuan, "Go and burn the incense."

Yi Linchuan finished offering the incense honestly and returned to Lin Chuyi's side. Lin Chuyi patted his head and led him forward again.There are huge Buddha statues and Arhat statues enshrined on the left and right of the hall, and some good men and women worship on the futons.Lin Chuyi didn't stop, and led him along the way.

Along the way, we passed many houses enshrining different Buddha statues and Bodhisattva statues, and many Buddha statues were pasted with gold leaf.The two sides are set off with artificial golden light, making it even more resplendent.

Yi Linchuan was led away for an unknown amount of time, and he felt as if he couldn't reach the end, but he could only keep moving forward.

"Here we are." Lin Chuyi's voice seemed to come from a very far away place, he was startled suddenly and regained consciousness instantly.He looked around, and for some reason, he felt a sense of alienation.

Standing in front of Lin Chuyi was a young monk. The monk seemed to have a pitiful smile on his face, but at first glance he seemed indifferent.That demeanor was like a Buddha statue sitting on a high platform.

The man's voice was as if reciting Buddhist scriptures without emotion, joy or anger: "It's better to go back." After finishing speaking, he sighed and stretched out his hand to beg.

Lin Chuyi looked at him speechlessly.After a long time, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Yi Linchuan was a little stunned, he didn't understand why she came here without saying a word after walking for so long.The moment the two of them stepped out of the threshold, Lin Chuyi brushed past one of them.The man was wearing a white shirt with two top buttons undone.He was smiling, with a small mole at the end of his eye.

He heard a sentence from behind, with a frivolous tone: "Long time no see, brother."

Yi Linchuan followed Lin Chuyi all the way back to the long stone steps in front of the door. The fortune tellers were still standing there, and when they saw Lin Chuyi approaching, they asked, "Miss, do you want to have a fortune teller?"

With a cold face, Lin Chuyi turned sideways to avoid those people, but those people didn't force them, and stood there waiting for the next person who was destined.

Yi Linchuan clearly felt that Lin Chuyi was not in a good mood at the moment, it could even be said to be very bad.

"Miss, please stay."

Lin Chuyi still avoided, but the man took a step to the right to block her way, his voice was a little anxious and worried: "Miss, I see that your breath is scattered or not, and you seem to be dying."

If it was normal, Lin Chuyi would politely decline or avoid it again, but at this time she was really depressed, so she sneered, looked at the person in front of her, and said like a string of words: " Is your surname Li? Is your surname Li? 24 years old. My family was rich when I was young. Later, there was a catastrophe. Fortunately, none of my parents, brothers and sisters were separated and went into exile. I joined the family of Changbai Mountain at the age of 17. I have learned a little bit of divination skills these years, but your master Didn't I tell you the rule of three counts?"

The man was stunned and looked at Lin Chuyi in astonishment, forgetting to speak for a moment.

Lin Chuyi breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the majestic palace behind him, and said softly: "Buddha does not save people who are not destined, let alone you."

So he turned and left.

In the car, Yi Linchuan looked at Lin Chuyi strangely: "You know how to tell a fortune teller? Can these things... be counted?"

Lin Chuyi looked enigmatic: "What do you think?"

Yi Linchuan was speechless and said, "Don't be tricky!"

Lin Chuyi said calmly: "I know his master. When I went to see him in Yunyin Pavilion last year, he even mentioned his precious apprentice to me."

Yi Linchuan: "..."

Shortly thereafter, the weather gradually turned cooler.

After Yi Linchuan started school, Lin Chuyi didn't go to Yi's house very often, and Yi Chuwen also became busy, and he couldn't see anyone all day long.Yi Linchuan was sitting at the desk, absent-mindedly writing homework, but his eyes fell out of the window: the withered and yellow rhododendrons that had fully bloomed were hanging on the branches, and when the wind blew, the flowers would fall into the small pond below, floating After a circle of ripples, it returned to silence.

His eyes were heavy, as if he wanted to see through the overturning undercurrents under the calm water.

The author has something to say: I don’t know why when I write this, I think it’s super suitable for cheating

I don't understand why the hexagrams can be related to Buddha... But think about it, maybe those people have nothing to go to except for tourist attractions like Buddhist temples?
