monk on the mountain tiger on the mountain

"Little master, how did you sleep last night?"

Father Yin asked while grinding the tea leaves.

"The bed at Uncle's house is so comfortable, I slept very well last night."

"That's good. Come on, you have a taste, how does this tea taste?"

Sheji blew on it lightly, took a sip, and widened his eyes. Then he put on a smile on the corners of his mouth, and his eyebrows and eyes were bent, "Mmm! The tea is very tasty."

Yinfu was even more proud after being praised, "This is my newly discovered method of making tea. The ordinary method of making tea is to pour hot water directly on the tea leaves, but my method is to grind the tea leaves into powder Brew with water, then filter the tea dregs."

"No wonder there is such a big difference between the tea made by the monk and the one made by the monk." Sheji took another sip as he said.

"I like drinking tea very much. I used to sell tea and had my own tea field. But after I moved, I stopped doing it." Father Yin took a sip of tea and looked at the hydrangeas outside the window, "From this You can see all kinds of flowers blooming outside the tea room, and I planted flowers that bloom in different seasons outside, and whenever I come here to drink tea, I can enjoy the flowers while drinking tea.”

Sheji looked at the hydrangeas outside the window, the colorful hydrangeas looked hazy and dreamy in the pattering spring rain.Sheji looked at Hana, and Tojuro looked at him.

"Uncle, let me clean it up for you."

After drinking a pot of tea, Sheji offered to help tidy up the tea sets.With that said, he got up and started packing.

"Little master, you are being polite. You are a guest, how can you tell the guest to clean up. You go back to the room first. Butler, take the little master to rest." Father Yin stopped him.

Sheji didn't insist, he obeyed Yinfu's words, and prepared to follow the housekeeper back to the house.

Tonjuro also stood up, ready to leave with Shaji.

"Juro, stay here and help me clean up."

Yin Juro was stopped by Yin's father.

Looking to the sky.

"You go back first."

After Tojuro gave his instructions, he buried himself in packing the tea sets.

"What do you mean by bringing him back?" Father Yin stopped packing and asked suddenly.

"Just, take him here to relax. He has been in a bad mood recently." Torajuro replied seemingly casually.

"You've never had such a good relationship with someone. Besides, he's a monk, do you understand me?" Father Yin emphasized the word "human".

Yin Julang raised his head, looked at Father Yin, his eyes darkened, and he said in a low voice, "I won't let him know."

Father Yin stared at Yin Julang's face for a while, and asked, "Do you... like him?"

Tojuro paused for a moment, with a serious expression and a low voice, and said with some sentimentality: "I just want to stay with him as long as he lives, and I try not to let him know about us. If he knows, it's fine to leave me. If not If I do something that is not good for my family, even if I miss it, I will kill him myself."

Father Yin asked the butler to get a new set of tea sets and began to grind the tea leaves, "Aren't you going to let him know?"

Tonjuro shook his head, whether it was to let Sheji know that he was a demon, or to let Sheji know that he liked him.

Father Yin handed a cup of tea to Yin Juro, "Although this tea is bitter, it has a hint of sweetness in the aftertaste, which makes people want to stop."

When Tojuro drank it, he felt that the bitterness overwhelmed the sweetness.

***

"Huh? Why did they leave so soon?" Yin's mother saw that the housekeeper brought another set of tea sets into the tea room, thinking that they were going to drink tea for a while, so she brought some refreshments, only to find that Yin's father was the only one in the tea room .

"Oh, I talked to Juro alone for a while, and he left after talking, saying that he wanted to take the little master out for a stroll."

"Shiro has really grown up. I have never seen him treat other children so well before, and now he knows to take care of others." Mother Yin covered her mouth with her long sleeve and smiled gratifiedly.

"I'm afraid he has more than friendship." Father Yin sighed softly.

"Brother, what did you just say?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Juro has really grown up." Father Yin emphasized the three words "grow up" meaningfully.

"Sister, don't you think that the way Shiro looks at little master is a bit strange?" Father Yin hesitated for a moment, but he still asked. His wife should not fail to see what he could see. Bar.

"It's just a lot milder than usual, what's so strange about that!"

"Don't you think it's the same way I look at you?"

"You? You always look at me lewdly, Juro is different from you!"

"No! Sister!"

Father Yin supported his forehead, what he wanted to say was affectionate!With affection!It's like looking at your sweetheart!Looking at the little master all the time, how come I always look at my sister "smilingly"?Well, sometimes I really can't hold it.

"Ah, it's raining."

Sheji stretched out his hand, and a few drops of rain fell on the palm of his hand.

"There are umbrella sellers over there."

Tonjuro took Sheji to a store to shelter from the rain, turned around and rushed into the rain, bought an umbrella and came back.

"Juro, look! What is this? It looks good, it's exquisitely crafted, and has a unique style."

Toujuro followed the direction of Sheji's finger and saw that the counter was full of all kinds of hairpins, some for women and some for men, and the one Sheji pointed to was a delicate hairpin for men.

However, Tonjuro only took one look, and his face darkened.He originally thought that since Sheji liked it, he would buy it for him to make him happy, but...sheji, no!have!head!hair!ah!

"Juro, what's wrong with you? Don't you look good?"

"Oh, this little master really has a good eye! This is a new product in our store, and the quantity is limited! Look, this hairpin is especially suitable for this young master's temperament, handsome and unrestrained, with a jade tree facing the wind..."

Sheji looked at the boss who came forward to sell the hairpin with enthusiasm on his face, and then at Tojuro, um, it really fits well.

"Don't think about it, I don't wear a hair crown, I always wear a ponytail, what kind of hairpin do I need?"

Tonjuro interrupted Sheji's brainstorming.

"Well, let's go." Sheji was a little disappointed, but he couldn't help it. He didn't have any money, and he was too embarrassed to ask Toujuro for it.

The two held an umbrella together and walked in the rain cuddling.

"Let's go back, uncle and aunt should worry."

"It's okay, they won't worry. I'll take you to another place."

"Which god is enshrined in this ancestral hall?" Sheji asked.

Some distance from the market, in a remote place, there is an ancestral hall, probably due to years of disrepair, the handwriting on the plaque is also blurred, and the enshrined statue is not far from "unrecognizable".There are so many tributes placed in front of the statue, it doesn't look like it has been forgotten, but this ancestral hall is even more dilapidated than the Lying Chan Temple.

"Uh, I don't know, I just heard that it is quite effective. Would you like to make a wish?" Tojuro glanced at the statue, scratched his cheek, and replied.

"Since so many believers come to worship it, why is this ancestral hall so...quaint?" Sheji thought for a while, and instead of calling his ancestral hall "broken" on other people's sites, he replaced it with "quaint".

"There is a superstition in our county, that is, the older the ancestral hall, the greater the merits accumulated by the god, and the greater the possibility that the wishes of the believers will be fulfilled. If the ancestral hall or statues are renovated because they are old, it will To break up all the merits accumulated before the gods, we can only start from 'nothing'."

"So that's the case. But we didn't bring any tribute, will the Lord God be unhappy, and our wish won't work?"

"Sincerity leads to spirit. Lord God won't care."

The two knelt on the mat, each made a wish in their hearts, and kowtowed to the statue at the same time.

——Master Yuelao, I, Tonjuro, have never prayed to gods and worshiped Buddha. I have only knelt down before you for so long.Please forgive me for lying to him that I don't know which god you are.If you have a soul in the sky, bless me to achieve a positive result with him... If it is a bit difficult to achieve a positive result, let me always be by his side!

"The rain has stopped, let's go back." Tonjuro said.

"Ah."

Tonjuro patted Sheji on the back lightly, "Okay! I will teach you martial arts tomorrow morning, don't let up!"

Sheji was photographed, rushed forward, turned his head, looked at Tonjuro, and saw him with a relaxed face, watching the sunrise with the clouds open.

The two returned the same way.

"Don't miss it when you pass by. You know the good fortune of the past life, and you know the life character of the present. Fortune-telling follows fate, no money is not allowed~ Oh, two young masters and little masters, I think you are destined, why don't you come and have a divination? No, no money!"

A fortune teller in the guise of a fortune teller blocks Tojuro and Shaji's way.

Tonjuro raised his eyebrows and asked: "No one knows what the past life was like, and there is no way to know what it will be like in the future. Sir, he said 'no money is not allowed', so how can I verify whether the master's calculation is accurate now?" ah?"

The fortune teller was at a loss for words, "This...is just for fun, why should you be serious..."

Sheji quietly tugged Yin Juro's sleeve, and said softly, "Juro, let's go."

Although it was a soft voice, the fortune teller still heard it. He stopped in front of Tonjuro, and said with a smile: "Young master, don't rush away! In this way, Xiaosheng will give you a fortune-telling for free, how about it?"

With a respectful smile, Tojuro cupped his hands and said, "Then Mr. Lao will help me figure out the marriage."

Hearing this, Sheji froze for a moment.

——Yes, Juro is also going to marry another woman.For a handsome young man like Juro, I don't know what kind of beautiful and virtuous woman can be worthy of him.If Shiro really married a girl, it must be a good story, like... Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai?Xu Xian and White Lady?No, those are tragedies, Juro and that woman should be able to stay together for a lifetime.

"It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of you." The fortune teller counted, and the old god was right there.

Tonjuro thought for a while, smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Then let me borrow a good word from you."

As he spoke, he took out some silver taels and stuffed them into the hands of the fortune teller, "It's nothing but respect."

After finishing speaking, he looked back at Sheji and said, "Let's go."

Sheji recovered and nodded.

——Who is the woman next to Juro?

"Young Master, Xiaosheng advises you not to say what you want," the fortune teller reached out and grabbed a handful of air in front of Tonjuro, put it to his mouth, and while opening his palm, he blew, and then he didn't finish speaking. "It's like nothingness."

After all, the fortune teller turned around and wandered elsewhere.

Tonjuro was startled, and shouted at the fortune teller's back: "I haven't asked your name yet."

The fortune-teller turned around and bowed his hands to Torajuro and the others, "My name is Lu Dejin. If you still want to tell your fortune, it depends on your fate. Farewell."

"Let's go, I will teach you martial arts tomorrow morning."

"Ah."

"Why do you look sullen? Are you tired?"

"Well, kind of."

"Then go back and rest early."

"it is good."

The fortune teller stopped, turned around, looked at the backs of Tonjuro and Sheji leaving, and said with a smile: "I can only help you so far."

In a blink of an eye, the fortune teller named "Luther King" disappeared into the smoke.

The author has something to say:

I made up Yin's father's tea making method and the old saying of the ancestral hall, don't believe it!

What is everyone's New Year's resolution?

Thank you very much for the little fairies and fairies who saw here!
