Hearing the monk's voice, Shen Yu was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously thought that the monk was talking to someone else.
But there were only two of them in this place. Where did the others come from?
Shen Yu paused and turned to look at the monk. After a moment of silence, he pointed at himself and asked, "Me?"
The monk nodded without changing his expression.
Shen Yu put away the wooden tablet she had taken down and followed the monk into the room next door in confusion.
The room was not big. It seemed to be for the monks and the temple staff to rest. There was only a small bed, a table, chairs and other simple equipment. The air was still lingering with a faint sandalwood fragrance.
For some reason, when Shen Yu smelled this fragrance, he felt an inexplicable irritation rush straight to the top of his head.
The monk walked to the table and sat down while pouring two cups of tea for himself and Shen Yu.
"Benefactor, please sit down." The monk gestured to Shen Yu.
Unfortunately, Shen Yu didn't seem to hear the monk's words. He stopped in his wheelchair in front of the door. His seemingly calm eyes were a little more vigilant. After a while, he pretended to be calm and said, "Master, is there something you need from me?"
The monk seemed to be aware of Shen Yu's rejection. He didn't get angry and said in a gentle tone, "Maybe the person who is in trouble is benefactor?"
Shen Yu was stunned, "I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Everyone who comes to this world has a predetermined fate. Benefactor and this poor monk are like this. Others are also like this. If you insist on changing your fate, you may suffer a backlash."
The monk's tone wasn't high, but every word was clearly heard by Shen Yu.
Shen Yu's face was as pale as paper. He opened his mouth but couldn't even make a sound. At this moment, he only felt that those words had turned into small hammers and were fiercely beating his nerves.
What did the monk mean by these words?
He didn't want to understand.
But he understood in an instant.
"I …" Shen Yu's voice was hoarse. It took him a lot of effort to squeeze out the rest of the words, "I just want to save myself."
The monk looked at Shen Yu with very kind eyes. To be exact, he exuded an amiable and approachable aura from head to toe. However, this aura did not make Shen Yu feel any better.
Under the monk's gaze, Shen Yu felt cold all over.
The fear of being seen through was like a heavy shackle, firmly binding his whole body. Even though Shen Yu's mind was so eager to leave, he could only stand still and stare blankly at the monk.
"You can use other methods," the monk said helplessly.
"This is the most effective method." Shen Yu whispered, "Moreover, if I don't take the initiative to change my fate, what awaits me in the future won't be a good ending."
When the monk heard this, he shook his head gently, as if he didn't agree with Shen Yu's words. "But while you are changing your own destiny, you are also subtly changing the destiny of others."
Shen Yu was shocked in his heart.
Now he understood that the monk came for Tang Li.
But how much did the monk know? Did he know that he didn't belong to this world?
The more Shen Yu thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Cold sweat kept overflowing from his forehead. When the cool wind blew, his body was shivering — he couldn't calm himself down.
After a long silence, Shen Yu asked bluntly, "What else do you know?"
The monk looked at him, but smiled and said nothing.
Shen Yu didn't get an answer. He took a deep breath and continued, "I don't think I did anything wrong. Even if he has a fixed destiny, it is a painful and wrong destiny. Maybe what I did will pull him out of the abyss."
After saying this, Shen Yu inevitably felt guilty.
He had no choice but to admit that he had forcefully interfered with Tang Li's life to ensure his own safety.
Moreover, at this point, he couldn't send Tang Li out for no reason at this time.
Moreover, Shen Yu had lived with Tang Li for a while. Even if it was a kitten or a puppy, he would have feelings for Tang Li, let alone a living Tang Li. He couldn't bear to throw Tang Li out and let the child return to his former lonely state.
Shen Yu didn't want to talk to the monk anymore. After he came to his senses, he turned around and left.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the wooden house, the monk's light voice came from behind him, "I hope you can return to the right path as soon as possible. If you suffer a backlash in the future, I'm afraid there will be no room for maneuver."
Shen Yu's face was pale. His fingertips pressed on the button of the armrest constantly, and the wheelchair slid forward at a very fast speed.
At this moment, the wheelchair seemed to hit something. Because it was moving too fast and its center of gravity was unstable, Shen Yu, who was caught off guard, fell straight forward.
"What the f * ck!"
Shen Yu cursed in his heart. He instinctively grabbed the armrest of the wheelchair, but he didn't expect that the wheelchair under him would flip forward with him.
It's over …
I'll definitely fall flat on my face.
Shen Yu closed his eyes in fright. However, the expected pain didn't come. Instead, two hands hugged him in time and rolled on the ground twice.
The next second, Tang Li's panicked voice sounded in his ears, "Shen Yu, are you okay?!"
While speaking, the hands hugged Shen Yu tighter.
Shen Yu felt that he was almost strangled to death by Tang Li. He opened his eyes gloomily and saw Tang Li's worried face.
"I'm fine …" Shen Yu shook his head and tried to get up from the ground. Only then did he realize that he had accidentally pressed Tang Li under him like a cushion.
He was really fine, but Tang Li's palm rubbed against the ground full of pebbles, leaving bloody scars.
Seeing this, Shen Yu suddenly felt so distressed that he even stopped breathing for two seconds.
He picked up Tang Li's injured hand and carefully observed it for a moment. Unfortunately, he didn't have any tissue on him, so he could only let Tang Li help him sit in the wheelchair. The two of them went back to the original resting place to find Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang and the guide were both shocked by Shen Yu's embarrassing appearance. Before they had time to ask anything, they heard Shen Yu ask them if they had any wine, cotton swabs, or something like that.
So the guide hurriedly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and went out to find the temple staff to get wine and cotton swabs.
Uncle Zhang glanced at his watch and whispered to Shen Yu, "Sir, it's almost two o 'clock."
Shen Yu nodded silently. He was still holding onto Tang Li's wrist. He lowered his eyes and looked at the scarlet blood seeping out of the wound. His mind was blank, but the words of the monk appeared in his mind.
He knew that he was quietly changing the fate of the Tang Li.
But he didn't know …
Are these changes good or bad for Tang Li?
Shen Yu looked up at Tang Li and happened to meet Tang Li's black eyes, which were fixed on him. His panicked face was clearly reflected in Tang Li's bright eyes.
The way Tang Li looked at him was always so focused, as if nothing in the world could.
I'll disturb him.
After that, Tang Li asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Yu said, "Nothing."
Obviously, Tang Li didn't believe Shen Yu's answer. He tilted his head to look at Shen Yu's expression and said, "You seem very unhappy."
Shen Yu was a little surprised by Tang Li's emotional sensitivity. He smiled and touched Tang Li's hair with his other hand, "I'm not unhappy. Maybe I'm a little tired."
Tang Li pursed his lips and didn't expose Shen Yu's lie.
After a while, the guide came back with a medicine box. She quickly bandaged Tang Li's hands. When the guide returned the medicine box, a familiar figure followed behind her.
It was Master Hui Jing, who had talked to Shen Yu not long ago.
Shen Yu, "…"
Just by looking at Master Hui Jing's kind face, he felt like he was suffocating!
However, the guide didn't see Shen Yu's suddenly stiff expression. She invited Master Hui Jing into the room and greeted him warmly, "Mr. Shen, this is the abbot I mentioned to you, Master Hui Jing."
After that, the guide turned to Hui Jing and said, "Master, this is Mr. Shen Yu from the capital."
Shen Yu had a headache. He wanted to take Tang Li and leave on the spot. However, for the sake of their friendship, he still greeted Hui Jing after struggling for a while.
Fortunately, Hui Jing didn't say those strange words in front of other people. His reaction was as if he had met Shen Yu for the first time. After greeting him, he asked everyone in the room to sit down at the table.
It was said that Hui Jing was very famous outside the circle. There were even foreigners who came from thousands of miles away to ask to meet him.
Only Shen Yu, an outsider, hadn't heard of Hui Jing's reputation. However, Hui Jing could see through Shen Yu's true colors at first glance. Hui Jing was indeed very capable.
Shen Yu didn't listen to a single word of the following conversation.
It wasn't until an hour later that Hui Jing got up and Shen Yu was finally relieved.
Before leaving, Hui Jing took out a business card from somewhere and handed it to Shen Yu, "Mr. Shen, it's fate that we met. You and I are fated to meet. If you have any problems in the future, you can contact me."
Shen Yu took the business card in surprise, "Thank you."
Hui Jing smiled gently and turned to leave the room with the guide.
After going down the mountain and returning to the hotel, Shen Yu remembered to take out the business card Hui Jing gave him and take a look. The background was beige, and Hui Jing's name and a string of mobile phone numbers were written on it.
Shen Yu pondered for a long time. Then he stuffed the business card and the two wooden tablets taken from the Wishing Wall into the bottom pocket of his suitcase.
The next day, at 10: 30 in the morning.
Shen Yu and others were already waiting in the VIP lounge. There was still more than half an hour before boarding. Shen Yu was playing with his mobile phone in boredom. Suddenly, the screen of his mobile phone flashed and a number came in.
It was Shen Rong.
Shen Yu picked up the phone. Before he could speak, Shen Rong's angry voice suddenly came from the phone, "What do you mean by arranging Kang Lin to come here? Our company has an independent operating model. You will only ruin things if you act rashly! "
Shen Yu was amused by Shen Rong's matter-of-fact attitude. He didn't want to be entangled with Shen Rong too much on this matter. He said coldly, "Do I need your permission to transfer people?"
Shen Rong choked for a moment. After a long time, he said, "The people in the head office don't understand the business of the branch company, so they directly send people here to meet …"
Shen Yu interrupted Shen Rong, "Then slowly understand."
Shen Rong, "…"
Both sides were silent for nearly half a minute. Just when Shen Yu thought Shen Rong would end the call, he suddenly heard Shen Rong gnashing his teeth and saying, "Brother Yu, are you deliberately going against me? You know that our company has been operating independently. Many of our work are not connected to your head office at all. "
"I've left you alone for a long time. Do you really think that you are an independent entity?" Shen Yu paused for a few seconds and suddenly laughed, "If you don't agree with my decision, then I suggest you go out and work independently. As for the elders, I can speak for you."
"You!" Shen Rong was so angry that he couldn't even speak.
"I'm very good," Shen Yu said, "I've been remembered by you for almost ten years. How dare I let you down?"
Shen Rong gasped for breath and then hung up the phone directly.
Shen Yu put away the phone without changing his expression. When he turned around, he saw Tang Li sitting next to him looking at him without blinking.
"What's there to look at?" Shen Yu smiled helplessly and reached out to cover Tang Li's eyes.
Tang Li didn't move. He just blinked his eyes. His long eyelashes, which were as dense as a small fan, swept Shen Yu's palm. It was so itchy that Shen Yu quickly withdrew his hand.
Shen Yu felt uncomfortable being stared at by Tang Li. He turned his head away and said, "Don't look at me."
He didn't know what expression Tang Li had at this moment, but he heard the child let out an almost inaudible sigh, "I want to grow up quickly."
Shen Yu turned his head back and looked strangely at Tang Li, whose eyes were a little sad, "Why do you think so?"
"I'm tired of being a child." Tang Li shrugged. In fact, he wanted to say that only when he grew up could he share Shen Yu's worries and not always see Shen Yu's worried face.
He was still a child, so he couldn't do anything.
Even in the face of the provocation of the man named Shen Rong, he couldn't protect Shen Yu well.
It was the first time that Tang Li had such a strong sense of frustration. It was also the first time that he was so repulsed by his teenage years.
Shen Yu didn't know what Tang Li was thinking. He smiled softly, patted Tang Li's shoulder, and comforted him softly, "You'll grow up soon. Haven't we known each other for half a year?"
Time passed quickly.
What Shen Yu was doing now was to eliminate the potential dangers in advance, such as Shen Rong.
Originally, Shen Yu didn't intend to confront Shen Rong. He even deliberately avoided a direct confrontation with Shen Rong. But he didn't expect that Shen Rong not only took the initiative to find him, but also targeted Tang Li.
Sigh …
Shen Yu sighed. He picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Kang Lin, who had arrived in Jincheng yesterday afternoon. "Hurry up and deal with Shen Rong."
The author has something to say: Hui Jing: "If you don't listen to my advice, you will suffer the backlash of fate sooner or later. At that time, I won't be able to do anything."
The staff of the temple: "Master Hui Jing! Mr. Shen just donated 20 million yuan!!! "
Hui Jing: "Mr. Shen, it's fate that we met. You and I are fated to meet. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can contact me."
