Chapter 396 Maple Forest Temple
"There is a temple here?"

Gu Mengmeng looked at him suspiciously and asked him what was going on.

"There is a temple in Fengshan Mountain, but the distance is far away, and the temple does not accept pilgrims, so many people will not bother."

"Oh, then let's go quickly, don't disturb the Buddha."

When Gu Mengmeng heard this, she immediately lowered her voice. She didn't believe in ghosts and gods at first, but when she was inexplicable, her soul came out of her body, and her soul wore a cat, she had no choice but to believe it.

"Well, let's go."

Bo Yeqing nodded, and took her hand. The two were about to leave when the door of the temple creaked and was pushed open from the inside.

What came out was an old monk. The old monk was very old and his back was bent out of shape.

The face is full of wrinkles, like deep ravines, drooping on the face.

Although the body is aging, but the eyes are full of wisdom that sees through the world. When people look at it, they can't help but be convinced from the bottom of their hearts. This must be a wise man.

When meeting the owner of the temple, due to politeness, she couldn't just walk away. Gu Mengmeng clasped her hands together and bowed to the old monk.

"Master, we have no intention of breaking into this place, and I hope you will forgive me."

The old monk looked at her, his eyes narrowed together, and his whole body was also very sluggish.

Gu Mengmeng looked at him, thinking that his ears were not good, so she clasped her hands together again and bowed.

The etiquette has been done, it is time for them to go.

Just as she was holding Bao Yeqing's arm and was about to leave, the old monk spoke with an unusually hoarse voice, as if something was blocked in his throat and he couldn't get out.

"Both benefactors, since you're here, it's a predestined relationship. Come and sit in the temple."

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for others to agree, and entered the door again, even leaving behind what he was going to do.

"..."

The two looked at each other, thinking that they should go and have a look.

……

in the temple

An ancient red maple tree stands in the center of the temple
Under the tree, there is a well and a round wooden table with four or five ceramic bowls stacked on it.

The wooden table is made of a thick maple tree in the mountains, and a section was randomly cut off to make the table.

The old monk sat under the tree, picked up a gourd ladle, scooped a ladle of water from the well, and poured it directly into three ceramic bowls on the round table.

"Master, do you live here alone?"

Gu Mengmeng looked around, but found no one else. In the whole temple, the old monk seemed to be the only one.

"Yes."

The old monk drank a mouthful of well water, nodded slowly, and motioned for the two of them to drink too.

"Then you are really good."

Gu Mengmeng was not restrained, picked up the bowl, and drank water directly. Looking at the old monk's actions just now, it seems that the usual habit is to drink water directly from the well.

It's okay for people to drink for so long, and I'm not a delicate body, so naturally I won't twitch.

Bo Yeqing sat casually with a lazy expression, looking at the temple and the old monk.

As for the well water, he naturally did not drink it.

"Benefactor, the origin and the fall will eventually be separated, just like this maple leaf, no matter how closely it is attached to the tree, it will eventually be separated."

The old monk stared blankly at the two of them, his voice was slow, and it seemed particularly bleak amidst the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

"You two benefactors, we are also destined. I will give you a few good words today, and I hope you will remember them in your heart."

There was a smile on the old monk's gully-covered face, and he looked very kind.
