Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Chapter 408: Meet Pushan Again 1

Yuqing's movement was so fast that Wang Jinyi witnessed for the first time what teleportation was. He only saw an afterimage, and if he hadn't been staring at it all the time, he would have thought he was dazzled.

Yuqing took something from the altar, returned to the young lady's back, and stood there with an unchanged expression as if nothing had happened.

Zhu Yu was stunned and didn't react, but his face was gloomy and he was nervously pinching the corner of his clothes, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Wang Jinyi quickly finished reciting the Diamond Sutra, stood up, rolled up the handwritten sutra and tucked it under his armpit, took the two of them out of the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall, and filled it into the incineration furnace outside the main hall.

The cold wind blew in with light snow. Wang Jinyi wrapped his cloak tightly and watched the Buddhist scriptures turn into a wisp of green smoke. He prayed that the prince, who was thinking of the people, would have a good body in his next life and become a good emperor.

He quickened his pace and walked against the wind back to Yunshui Hall. Zhu Yu trotted after him into the room, put the thick door curtain in place, closed the door tightly, and stood guard at the door.

"Give me the stuff."

Wang Jinyi raised his hand, and Yuqing took out a letter from his bosom. It was actually a piece of letter paper that was less than the size of a palm, and it was written even more simply.

Pray for five days and make requests on five days, and a year’s wish will be fulfilled in one day.

After flipping through it, there was only this sentence on a plain note. Wang Jinyi understood her parents' caution. Her family meant that someone would come to see her every five days. She felt warm in her heart when she read these ten words.

The words were written by my father, the words were decided by my parents after discussing for who knows how long, and even the people sent were selected by my parents...

"Miss."

Yuqing called softly, and Wang Jinyi suddenly came back to his senses. He saw her pointing to the next yard.

Wang Jinyi was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"A pilgrim from Yunshui Hall came to visit in person from the Grand Master."

Wang Jinyi didn't pay much attention to it. He just carefully cut the note to only one line of words, then waved to Zhu Yu.

"Embroider a lace border on the edge and make a necklace underneath so I can hang it above the bed."

Zhu Yu asked in confusion, "Miss, don't you want to hide?"

"It's just a line of poetry, nothing more."

Zhu Yu said "Oh" doubtfully and went to work.

Wang Jinyi asked, "What day is it today?"

"Miss, today is the tenth day of the lunar month."

Yes, my understanding is correct. Every fifth day of the lunar year, someone comes to visit me. One reason is to check on me and see if I am safe. The other is to provide support when I have problems.

Wang Jinyi took a deep breath, calmed down, took off her sheepskin boots and changed into cotton shoes, hung the white fox crane cloak on the hanger, and sat in front of the charcoal brazier to warm her hands.

Once you have a plan in mind, you will never be manipulated by others.

I really hope that I am just overthinking and over-interpreting things, but I must not be unprepared!

Thinking of this, she returned to the table, found a pencil and white linen paper to draw a picture and write a plan. It was not until the evening when the lamps were turned on that the entire process of shaving her head and becoming a nun was completed.

I'll put it aside for now and perfect it myself. I also need someone to help me. I have to go to the nunnery to get ahead of others. Someone has to do the job of canceling my household registration and enrolling me in the nunnery. Who will do it?

If I ask my mother to do it, she will be sad. If I tell my father, will it affect his imperial examination? And the elders have to do it, what should I do? !

Looking back at Yuqing, Yuqing seemed to have seen through the lady's thoughts and shook her head unnaturally.

"Miss, I can't do everything."

Wang Jinyi was thinking about something and spreading out the rice paper to copy the Diamond Sutra. He started copying one volume a day from the day he learned that the prince had passed away. Today he had already copied the 56th volume.

The next day, at the hour of Mao, Wang Jinyi dressed neatly and went to attend the morning class. Zhu Yu stopped her.

"Miss, it snowed yesterday and it's even colder today, so wear a snow hat."

"If you wear a hat now, what will you do in December?"

Although she said she was not convinced, she obediently let Zhu Yu put on the white fox fur hat and tie a green ruyi around her neck. He checked her from head to toe before letting the young lady out.

There were not many people meditating in Yunshui Hall in winter. When Wang Jinyi walked out of his yard, he saw a row of footprints in front of him, clearly leading him to the main hall. He was a little suspicious and followed the footprints.

The cold wind swept across the bluestone road, and in the distance, a figure in a scholar's robe was walking alone.

The faded blue-gray cotton robe looked thin in the cold wind, and half of the coarse cloth shirt that had been washed white was exposed when he walked.

Soon they reached the intersection. He turned on the snow and disappeared. When they reached the intersection, they found that the man was not going to the morning class, but was heading towards the Zen room. Wang Jinyi continued walking, stepping on the small footprints.

After two hours of morning classes, Wang Jinyi was almost frozen. Hungry and cold, he wrapped himself tightly in his cloak and went straight to the cafeteria.

The steam was rising. Wang Jinyi rubbed her cold and stiff hands, picked up the coarse earthenware bowl and warmed her hands with hot soup. Only after Zhu Yu handed her a hand warmer did she relax. With the warmth in her hands, it seemed as if all the muscles in her body were no longer so tense.

He also became more skillful in using chopsticks. After finishing a bowl of hot porridge, he unexpectedly burped crisply and pleasantly. Wang Jinyi covered his mouth and looked around, and saw the "Mr. Footprints" whom he had seen from afar when he went out in the morning.

He sat in the corner of the dining hall, eating quietly with his back to this side. His faded blue-gray scholar's cotton robe stood out among the pile of monks' robes.

She glanced at him and thought, here's another strange person, but she didn't expect her curiosity to be met with a familiar face. A scholar in a scholar's robe walked towards Wang Jinyi with an empty bowl in his hand.

"Miss, long time no see, are you okay?"

"Sir, who are you?"

Wang Jinyi asked a long question and looked up at the person who came.

There was a warm smile on his thin face, and his eyes were full of concern. Out of courtesy, Wang Jinyi stood up and bowed slightly.

"Don't blame me, sir. I can't remember who you are...who is it?"

The person opposite him seemed to have not expected that there were still people in this world who could not remember his appearance. After a moment of hesitation, he smiled awkwardly and coughed lightly.

"My name is Putian. Miss, do you still remember me?"

"Putian? Putian..."

Wang Jinyi repeated it silently, feeling as if she had heard it before, but also as if she had no impression of it. At this time, the person opposite spoke, "Miss, are you all right?"

Wang Jinyi frowned slightly, "You? You are...?"

There was a hint of bitterness in the smile on Pushan's face. He nodded slightly and said, "It is me."

There was a flash of sadness in his eyes, which was fleeting, but he still smiled and asked:

"Miss, it's okay. It seems that you have listened to the warning and are out of danger. It's gratifying..."

Wang Jinyi suddenly remembered the scholar who was traveling on the moonlit night with a bag on his back and the Qingfeng Sword in his hand. Yes! It was him!

An inexplicable feeling of sympathy and respect surged up in my heart. His life seemed like a shackle woven by fate for scholars. All his extraordinary abilities were not tolerated by the secular world.

Zhu Yu coughed lightly to wake up the young lady, and Wang Jinyi stood up to greet her formally.

"Thank you for reminding me, sir, so that I can avoid bloodshed. I am here to show my respect."

"But... Miss Guan seems to be in a bad mood..."

Yuqing stood up and stood between the two of them.

"Sir, why are you here? Do you have any business to do? You'd better get busy as soon as possible!"
