As the saying goes, mother and son are connected by heart. Mu Wan'er covered her heart with one hand and could feel the helplessness and sorrow of her child from the bottom of his heart.
Just as she mobilized all the yuan qi in her body and prepared to force her way through the stone door and reunite with her child, the entire Serene Tower shone brightly. There was a ray of light from the top of the tower that directly entered Mu Wan'er's body and slowly sealed the yuan qi in her body.
But Mu Wan'er was unwilling. At this moment, she was only separated by a wall from her child. No matter what, she had to see Lin Xiu, even if it was just a glance.
However, as she resisted, the strength of the seal within her body also increased. In the end, the powerful pressure caused the bones in her body to emit cracking sounds. Her entire body powerlessly lay on the ground. However, she still moved her body bit by bit, trying her best to crawl towards the stone door.
The mother and son were separated by a stone wall, but it was as if they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. They would never see each other again.
Suddenly, Lin Xiu's heart moved slightly and he felt great sorrow. So he quietly lay on the stone door and carefully listened to the movements in the tower.
A feeling of being connected by blood filled Lin Xiu's heart. At the same time, Mu Wan'er, who was behind the stone door, still attacked the stone door again and again without a care for her own safety. Lin Xiu felt the stone door trembling violently, then tears filled his eyes and a trembling voice came out of his mouth.
"Mother, is that you? Can you hear me? I'm Lin Xiu, I'm here to see you. "
"Xiu'er."
Mu Wan'er had already used up all the strength in her body at this time. Her entire body was limp on the ground and she kept muttering her son's name.
Time passed bit by bit, but Lin Xiu had no intention of leaving. His mother was only separated by a wall. Even if he could not see his mother's face with his own eyes and hear his mother's voice, as long as they could quietly accompany each other like this, Lin Xiu would feel a great sense of contentment.
The moonlight gradually deepened and dew quietly sprinkled on Lin Xiu's clothes. At this time, Mu Qing'er also came over and saw Lin Xiu's appearance. Her expression was complicated and she said softly, "Cousin, we can't stay here for a long time. I believe that aunt will be able to see the light of day again soon. Let's leave first."
Lin Xiu struggled to get up from the ground, then kowtowed three times respectfully, then said loudly to the stone door, "Mother, wait for your child to come and save you."
Mu Wan'er, who was behind the stone door, revealed a smile when she sensed Lin Xiu's figure gradually leaving. There was a gratified look in her eyes. She was willing to live in the You Pagoda forever, even if she had to live in the dark forever without any daylight.
On the other hand, after Lin Xiu and Mu Qing'er left, Jin Xin began to stroll around the streets.
Jin Xin was strolling around Mu City. In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting. Jin Xin was hungry and wanted to find an inn to eat something.
When he walked to a place, he saw a restaurant with fluttering cloth and a neat facade. On the signboard in front of the door were three gold-plated words "Welcome Spring Restaurant". It looked very dignified. Jin Xin saw it and was about to enter.
"Master, please wait." Suddenly, a person who looked like a shopkeeper blocked in front of him, "Master, I'm really sorry. There are no vegetarian dishes in the shop today, please go somewhere else."
"What a coincidence." Jin Xin laughed and was about to walk in again, "This little monk doesn't eat vegetarian dishes, just serve some wine and meat."
"Master," the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped Jin Xin, "there's no wine and meat."
"What? Are you afraid that I don't have money to pay for your wine? "Jin Xin stuck his face in front of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper's expression was a little flustered.
"Master, what are you saying? Is there anything more popular than being a monk now? To tell the truth, the shop has been booked by someone else. That guest said that no one is allowed to enter. "
"Then is this okay?" Jin Xin grabbed the front of the shopkeeper's shirt and lifted him up. The shopkeeper's feet immediately left the ground.
"It's not you who let me in, it's me who barged in."
Jin Xin strode in and threw the struggling innkeeper onto a chair. He deliberately raised his voice and yelled, "Go and get some food and wine, and prepare a guest room. I'm going to rest after I'm done eating."
The door of a room upstairs creaked open, and a sturdy man walked out from inside.
"What's the matter? Why are you shouting? Hey? Shopkeeper, didn't I tell you not to let outsiders in? Who was this person who was dressed like a monk but not a vulgar one? Hurry up and kick him out. Don't disturb the young master's meal. "
Jin Xin carefully looked at the person. It was a rough man dressed in purple, dressed like a servant. Instead, he sat down, flicked his clothes, and said in a clear voice, "I eat my food, you drink your wine, don't ask about other people's sorrow. Be careful, if you act too hurriedly, your daughter-in-law will go to another family's kang bed."
"Where did this wild monk come from? Bald donkey!" That man had never been insulted like this before. He was so angry that his eyebrows stood up straight, his nostrils flared, and he kept puffing out coarse breaths like a Spanish bull.
"I can crush you with one finger. Do you believe me?"
Jin Xin reached out and grabbed a cup of wine from the table, coldly snorting, "I'll believe you if you don't get hit by this cup of wine." As soon as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed out of his hand, and the cup of wine flew towards the large man like a stream of fire.
"Hahahaha, insignificant skill. Brat, you dare to show off this little trick?" The man's hand moved as fast as lightning, steadily catching the wine cup. "You're still too inexperienced. Let me teach you how to smash people with a wine cup." With that said, he lifted the wine cup and threw it with great force. But as soon as the wine cup left his hand, it spun in place twice, and unexpectedly flew back towards the man.
How could the man have expected such a move? He hurriedly raised his hand to protect himself, but it was too late. The wine cup heavily smashed into his forehead. A blood-red lump of flesh quickly broke through the ground, occupying the high ground with absolute superiority. The wine cup shattered and flew in all directions.
"Ah!" The man cried out miserably as he fell to the ground. Then, he covered his forehead with one hand and used the other to prop himself up.
"You-" The man pointed at Jin Xin, who was smiling proudly, and shouted in exasperation.
"What is it?" From the room behind the man came a magnetic and provocative voice. It was curious because he didn't know, and angry because he was disturbed.
"Young master, a damned fat monk has come to cause trouble." The man's anger had not yet subsided, but when he returned to the room, he was still very respectful.
"Oh? Then this young master will have to personally take a look. "A series of footsteps sounded out.
Jin Xin looked carefully, only to see a handsome youth walking out from behind the man. He was dressed like a scholar, tall, and had an extraordinarily handsome face.
Xu Fei and Jin Xin looked at each other. Jin Xin jumped up from the stool, and Xu Fei also closed his paper fan in surprise.
The two of them both felt that the other was extraordinary and outstanding.
Jin Xin saw that the scholar was handsome and elegant, and viewed him as a dragon or phoenix; Xu Fei saw that Jin Xin was arrogant and unruly, and knew that he was not an ordinary person. They immediately felt a sense of regret for not having met earlier, and felt a deep appreciation for each other.
"May I ask where Reverend is from?" Xu Fei cupped his hands and asked.
"This humble monk is Mingkong Temple's Jin Xin." Jin Xin returned the greeting.
"If Reverend has nothing important to do, how about going upstairs to rest for a bit?" Xu Fei had the intention to befriend him, and his words were sincere.
"Thank you for your hospitality." Jin Xin did not stand on ceremony. He lifted his robe and went upstairs.
"Please —"
"Please —"
Xu Fei lifted his foot and went in first. Jin Xin smiled and glanced at the man, who was still holding his forehead with his hand and staring at Jin Xin with burning eyes. Jin Xin laughed again and stepped in.
"Please —"
"Please —"
The two of them sat down.
"The few of you can leave." There were a few maids serving in the room, and with a wave of Xu Fei's hand, the maids left in an orderly manner.
Jin Xin looked at the few beauties floating away, and his heart was unwilling to let them go. He muttered: "Actually, it's not a problem for them to be here."
"What did Venerable One say? Do you want them to come back and serve you? "Xu Fei did not hear clearly, and hurriedly asked.
"No, no, no, that's not necessary." Jin Xin quickly denied.
"Then let's eat something, Venerable One must be hungry. There are still some vegetarian dishes on the table, if it's not enough, we can ask the waiter to serve more. "
"No need, this humble monk does not avoid meat."
"Oh, I still don't know your name." Jin Xin stood up and grabbed a large piece of goose meat from the plate in front of Xu Fei, and asked while stuffing it into his mouth.
"My surname is Xu, and my given name is Fei. I'm the second oldest in my family, and I'm called Brother Xiao Yi." Xu Fei rolled up his sleeves and drank a cup of wine, then picked up a chopstick and flipped through a plate a few times, and finally picked up a piece of meat to eat. Then he put down his chopsticks, and pointed to the burly man in purple behind him: "This is my family, you can call me Zi Man. For what happened just now, I apologize on behalf of Venerable One. "
"En, en." Jin Xin was eating until his mouth was full, and his saliva flowed freely. For a moment, he could not open his mouth to speak, so he repeatedly waved his hand at Xu Fei, and the masticatory muscles on his cheeks moved rapidly. After a while, he could finally open his mouth: "I should be the one apologizing, I did not mean to make Brother Zi like this, I really feel bad."
Zi Man glanced at Jin Xin disdainfully, and said angrily: "Bald donkey's fake benevolence, it sounds nice." Then he turned away.
"Cough, cough." Jin Xin did not expect Zi Man to accept his apology, but he did not expect Zi Man to say such a thing, and Jin Xin, whose mouth was full of grease, choked and coughed.
"Venerable One, please don't blame me, Venerable One, please don't blame me." Xu Fei hurriedly stood up and stroked Jin Xin's back.
"Ah — —" Jin Xin heaved a huge sigh of relief, and stood up with his hands on the table. His head hung low, and he panted heavily.
"It's fine, it's fine." Jin Xin sat down again, lifted the wine pot on the table, and took a big gulp. His entire face was red, like a ripe purple peach. Zi Man was amused by the side.
Xu Fei glared at Zi Man, and Zi Man quickly restrained himself.
Xu Fei asked Jin Xin: "Venerable One, are you free? It's our first time here, and we would like to tour the scenery of Mu City. I wonder if venerable One is willing to accompany us? "
"Actually, this is also my first time here, and I don't have any urgent matters. Thank you, Brother Xu, for not abandoning me, I am willing to accompany you. "
"Alright. Since that's the case, we will rest here tonight, and tour Mu City with venerable One tomorrow. "Xu Fei laughed, and raised his cup to toast Jin Xin. Jin Xin moved the chicken drumstick in his right hand to his left, and raised the pot to drink with Xu Fei.
