Lin Huayin pondered for a moment and nodded. "Maybe."
"Auntie Ye?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
Lin Huayin shook her head. "No."
"Then who could it be?" Xiao Zheng scratched his head and lit a cigarette.
Xiao Zheng was addicted to smoking after climbing the mountain for nearly two hours. However, his hands were busy, so he finally had time to smoke.
Lin Huayin pondered for a moment and said, "It should be Uncle Bai."
"Uncle Bai?" Xiao Zheng was surprised. "Who is it?"
"Hahaha —"
Laughter suddenly rang out, and an ethereal sound reverberated through the empty mountainside.
As soon as the laughter stopped, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged monk in a gray robe walked out. With a benevolent smile on his face, a handsome face that was completely different from the clothes he was wearing appeared in front of the two of them.
"Miss Lin, it's been over twenty years and you're still so smart." The middle-aged monk looked at Lin Huayin kindly, his eyes filled with benevolence.
He was tall and had an extraordinary aura. Even though he was wearing a monk's robe, it could not hide his outstanding temperament. He had shaved his head, and he was not wearing any attire. Apart from the thin monk's robe, there was nothing special about him. However, with just a glance, Xiao Zheng felt that this person was definitely not an ordinary person. He must have been an outstanding person in the past.
But why did he live on the mountainside? Was it an ancient Buddha lamp?
There was a simple plaque hanging on the door of the wooden house. Three bold and powerful words were written on the plaque: Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
Such a simple and crude wooden house with such a domineering plaque did not make people feel strange at all. Instead, they were more curious about the identity of this middle-aged monk.
"Hello, Uncle Bai." Lin Huayin lowered her head, which was a rare sight. She took the initiative to greet him respectfully.
Even in front of her parents, Lin Huayin had never shown such sincere respect. It could be foreseen that this Uncle Bai that Lin Huayin mentioned had an extraordinary identity.
"The mountain path is difficult. Are you tired?" The middle-aged monk smiled warmly and gestured for the two to take a seat. Then, just when Xiao Zheng felt that he was being left out, the monk took the initiative to pour a cup of fragrant hot tea for Xiao Zheng and introduced himself, "My surname is Bai and my name is Wu Xia."
Bai Wuxia?
The name was quite alluring, and it matched his outstanding face that was not inferior to that of Lin Chaotian. The dense aura that lingered around his body was extremely shocking, as if he was an enlightened monk.
"Thank you, Uncle Bai." Xiao Zheng followed Lin Huayin's greeting and introduced himself. "My name is Xiao Zheng."
"I know." Bai Wuxia said with a kind smile. "I also know that you don't even care about Lin Laoyao."
Lin Laoyao —
Xiao Zheng looked a little embarrassed.
In private, he did not give Lin Chaotian much face. However, in front of outsiders, especially in front of Lin Huayin, he really did not know how to answer.
"Uncle Bai. Do you live here? " Lin Huayin was surprised that the world-famous Bai Wuxia was dressed like a monk, and she was even more curious about why he lived here.
How long had he lived here?
How long did he plan to live here?
Why did he live here?
Everything had broken Lin Huayin's childhood impression of him.
"Yes." Bai Wuxia smiled slightly.
"How long have you lived here?" Xiao Zheng took the initiative to interrupt.
"Twenty-two years." Bai Wuxia said with a smile.
When Lin Huayin heard that, her expression changed slightly.
Even Xiao Zheng was extremely surprised by Bai Wuxia's answer.
Twenty-two years?
Did it mean that after Ye Yuhua escaped to become a monk, this mysterious Uncle Bai also became a monk and accompanied the lamp?
What was the relationship between him and Ye Yuhua?
Xiao Zheng vaguely guessed something.
"Uncle Bai, you don't have to do this." After a moment of silence, Lin Huayin suddenly said.
Xiao Zheng did not know the identity of Bai Wuxia, and he did not know the relationship between Bai Wuxia and Ye Yuhua. However, Lin Huayin was very clear about it, and she was very respectful to this elder who treated her like a daughter.
Who was Bai Wuxia?
He was one of the Four Most Handsome Men of Hua Xia, who was as famous as Lin Chaotian, Lu Dashan, and Shang Jingtian. He was also known as the King of White Town, the best in the world.
Shang Jingtian walked the path of moderation. He seemed to be calm, but in fact, he had accumulated a lot of experience, and he was powerful but not angry. Lu Dashan was elegant and charming. In terms of appearance, he was the first of the Four Most Handsome Men. He was regarded as a genius in business, and he had once reached the peak, surpassing all others. Lin Chaotian was secretive and eccentric. After his divorce, he became famous overnight, and was called Lin Laoyao by the people in the circle. He was unparalleled in intelligence.
Bai Wuxia, who had escaped to become a monk for more than 20 years, was the most outstanding and the first to become famous among the four.
Back then, he, who was known as the King of White Town, came to the capital city alone, and was provoked by various forces. But he fought in a banquet of the rich and powerful. He injured more than 30 playboys. Although the news was blocked, it caused a great disturbance in the circle. Later, he returned to White Town, and before leaving, he made a bold statement to the rich and powerful families in the capital city, "Whoever is not convinced, come to White Town to find me. Remember my name, I am Bai Wuxia! "
Among the four, he was the most hot-tempered and the most emotional. But in White Town, he was the king who could cover the sky with one hand. His family had been rooted in White Town for half a century, and their businesses were amazing, covering the whole world. Even Lu Dashan and Shang Jingtian, who were born in the rich and powerful families, believed that no one could match him in terms of family background.
And it was this outstanding young talent who, in the prime of his life, escaped to become a monk with Ye Yuhua, who was divorced and gave birth to a daughter. He chanted sutras for more than 20 years.
Why?
Because he loved Ye Yuhua deeply. From the first time they met, he was fascinated by Ye Yuhua's elegance and temperament. He was willing to kneel under her skirt. He declared that he would never marry anyone else in his life, and would never change his mind until death.
At first, people thought he was just a playboy, and laughed it off. But no one expected that 22 years ago, after Ye Yuhua escaped to become a monk and moved to Mount Phoenix Cry, he put on a monk's robe, abandoned his family business, and converted. He lived alone on the mountainside for more than 20 years.
This mountain was called Mount Phoenix Cry. On the top of the mountain lived a phoenix that had once soared to the Ninth Heaven. And Bai Wuxia, who had always been arrogant, named this small wooden hut Dragon Hidden Pavilion. As a response.
The phoenix lived here, and he, the giant dragon, also lived in seclusion on the mountain. Life and death depended on each other, and the atmosphere was majestic.
Facing Lin Huayin's meaningful consolation, Bai Wuxia smiled and gestured, "If you don't drink it, the tea will get cold."
Lin Huayin knew that Bai Wuxia could live in seclusion here for more than 20 years, so he would not be persuaded by a few words. She changed the topic and picked up the teacup to drink slowly.
Xiao Zheng, who was unbearably thirsty, drank the tea in one gulp, and begged, "Uncle Bai, can you give me another cup? The tea is so good. "
"Sure," Bai Wuxia said, but he did not move his hand. He just looked at Xiao Zheng with a Smile. "But you have to win against me first."
"Win against what?" Xiao Zheng was confused.
"Beat me." Bai Wuxia was still smiling with a benevolent expression.
Win against him?
Xiao Zheng said awkwardly, "You're my elder, I can't fight against you."
A monk actually wanted him to win against him before he was willing to give him water. It was unimaginable, and it went against the Tao.
"You don't want to fight against your elder. Then you treat me as the White Emperor. Will you feel better? "Bai Wuxia stood up slowly, and his whole body was full of energy.
