disguised holy monk

Xuanqing was not in a hurry to return. One was his current body. Jiang Qimo was always worried that he would fall apart in the next second if he was too tired; the other was that they were not in a hurry at all, and walked slowly to Qingchan Temple along the way. You can also enjoy the scenery along the way.

When we arrived at the foot of Qingchan Temple, it was already winter.

It wasn't so cold when they left Kyoto, and they didn't expect that it would snow all the way to Qingchan Temple.Xuan Qing was still in the carriage when he heard Wu Xin's joyful voice as he lifted the curtain: "Uncle Master, Master has come down the mountain to pick us up!"

After he finished speaking, he straightened his face again, turned calm and took the lead to get off the carriage before turning around to help him.

It seems that only in front of the unsmiling Senior Brother Xuan Yuan, he will show such a calm look.Xuan Qing was a little amused, and got out of the car with Jiang Qimo.

Looking at the familiar mountains in front of him, he has been away from the temple for a year.

Xuan Yuan was leading a group of disciples to wait for him by the side of the road, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting.His tall figure was still wearing a thin monk's robe at this time, but he didn't feel cold.

Xuan Yuan is calm and calm, and has never had a big expression fluctuation, but at this moment he couldn't help showing excitement in his eyes. He strode forward, "Junior brother! You've worked hard all the way..."

As he spoke, he touched the back of Xuan Qing's slightly cool hand, and quickly took the cotton monk's robe from the disciple behind him and put it on Xuan Qing.

"It's already winter and it's cold. I'm afraid it will be even colder when we go up the mountain."

Xuan Qing saw that he was wearing a thin monk's robe, but remembered that he was afraid of the cold, so he brought thick clothes for him.

There was a hint of a smile in his black eyes, "Thank you, senior brother, I'm fine, and Wuxin took good care of me along the way. This is Jiang Qimo, the king of medicine, and the benefactor Jiang is very proficient in medical skills."

Hearing this, Xuan Yuan looked at Jiang Qimo. There are very few people in the Jianghu who have never heard of his name. After all, he saved the miracle doctor of the Southern Dynasty. Xuan Yuan naturally knew that the other party must have followed him all the way to heal Xuan Qing's years of practicing kung fu. Leave a strong load behind.

Therefore, at this moment, he put his palms together and gave a salute very solemnly, "Thank you Jiang benefactor."

Although Jiang Qimo is indifferent, but after being with Xuanqing for a long time, he has become more humane. What's more, this is Xuanqing's closest senior brother, and he immediately returned a salute, "Master Xuanyuan is serious, Master Xuanqing and I He is a close friend, and treating his illness is what I should do."

Xuan Yuan's eyebrows stretched, and he obviously relaxed a lot. He stepped aside and directed: "It's cold, so we won't talk about it here. Let's go back to the temple earlier."

A group of people went to Qingchan Temple.

After going this way, Xuanqing felt the influence of Qingchan Temple more and more clearly.All the way to the temple on the top of the mountain, there are disciples guarding both sides of the road, and the Qingchan Temple on the top of the mountain is no longer the quaint small temple at the beginning, but now the temples are continuous, and you can see the eaves of the Buddhist temple and the thick and heavy atmosphere from a long distance away. Buddha bells.

Xuan Yuan led the way while explaining: "At the beginning, the temple had been completely renovated. Later, countless pilgrims and monks came here admiringly. The original temple couldn't fit, so the east side had to be expanded. , the government also helped to expand the west side.”

Xuanqing heard the words and looked over. Now Qingchan Temple has two new temples in the east and west besides the simple and majestic ancient temple in the middle.

Xuan Qing seemed to have remembered something, "Brother, is the plum grove in the back mountain still there?"

Xuan Yuan smiled, "Of course it's still there, I'll keep it for you."

He knew that Xuanqing loved it there since he was a child, so he didn't let anyone move him at all.

When everyone returned to the temple, it was already dark.

After arranging the wing room for Jiang Qimo, Xuan Qing returned to his meditation room.

His house has not been lived in for nearly a year, but it is still spotlessly clean.The futons were dry and neat, and there was only a faint scent of sandalwood in the air.

Brother is guarding carefully.

Xuan Qing's heart warmed up, and there was a knock on the door just outside the house, and then Xuan Yuan walked in with a bucket of hot water.

"Brother?" Xuan Qing looked at him in astonishment.

Xuan Qing smiled slightly, "You can't use your internal strength now, and you have stood in the cold weather for so long before, the soles of your feet must be cold, soak your feet in hot water, and have a good rest at night."

Xuanqing's body is cold, his feet are always cold at night, in the past Wuku gave him Tang Pozi.Xuan Yuan still remembers...

Xuan Yuan had already put water at his feet, and reached out to untie his shoes and socks.

Xuan Qing regained his senses and shrank his feet, a little embarrassed, "Brother, let me do it myself."

Xuan Yuan was a little helpless, "Do you still have to be so polite with your senior brother? No matter how old you are, how many apprentices you have, even if you have become a host, you have become a national teacher, you are my junior."

Everyone in the Qingchan Temple was afraid of the head of the Discipline Academy. He was unsmiling, clear about rewards and punishments, and his tall stature was a little calm and pretentious just standing there.

In contrast, Xuan Qing's immortal appearance with benevolent eyebrows and benevolent eyes is even more likable and close.

But Xuan Yuan has never been angry or stern in front of Xuan Qing.

Xuan Qing laughed unconsciously, after a while, Xuan Yuan had already soaked him in hot water except for his shoes and socks.

He was a little surprised, "What are you laughing at?"

Xuan Qing shook his head, "I just remembered that senior brother helped me soak my feet like this before."

As if recalling those warm memories, Xuan Yuan softened his brows, "Just come back."

……

Sure enough, after soaking his feet in hot water, Xuan Qing had no dreams all night, and the bed was so warm that he almost woke up late the next day.

After reciting the morning scriptures and eating breakfast, Xuanqing stood in front of the window, looking at the snowflakes falling outside.

It was snowing again, and he suddenly thought of the pot of snow water buried last winter.It's a pity that I didn't drink it when I went out at the beginning of spring at the beginning of the year. By now, I'm afraid it's already broken.

With a thought in his mind, he suddenly lifted his foot and walked towards the back mountain.

This place has not been built, Xuanqing follows the memory, step by step on the snow.

When he reached the top of the back mountain, he looked at a piece of green pine covered with white snow in the distance, and the red plum tree nearby was as gorgeous as ever.

It's just that this year no one has broken the plum to harm it, and no one has chased after him to stuff the stove.

Xuan Qing stood in the snow, snowflakes fell all over his body and face, he didn't reach out to wipe it off, just let the wind and snow fall all over his head.

"If you want to freeze into a snow sculpture in the snow, you might as well just lie on the ground."

The merciless cold words broke the silence, Jiang Qimo strode over, and put the hood on Xuanqing's head.

If it wasn't for the green clothes, his silver hair would have almost melted into the snow, and his complexion was not very good-looking. Although he was speaking angrily at this time, his movements of his hands were much gentler.

Xuan Qing smiled helplessly, and said lightly: "I just like this plum tree, so I came to see it."

He said it casually, but Jiang Qimo felt a little uncomfortable. He just thought that the other party was probably missing his former apprentice.

Jiang Qimo didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only take him back, "Let's go, it's time for the acupuncture."

Since knowing that Xuanqing didn't like drinking those traditional Chinese medicines last time, Jiang Qimo changed his treatment method.

Every time he gets acupuncture, Xuan Qing feels like he has been tied into a hedgehog... Fortunately, he doesn't feel any pain.

Thinking about it, Xuan Qing nodded, he lowered his eyes and looked behind him secretly, then he looked back as usual, and walked back with Jiang Qimo.

...He actually wanted to dig out the snow water that had been buried before to see if it stinks...but when he found someone was there, he just pretended to be aggressive.Let the other party think that he is missing them~~

Not long after the two left, silence returned in the snow.After a while, a dark shadow came out, and he looked at the plum tree.

A black cloak has long been covered with snowflakes, and I don't know how long I have stood by this person.
