486 If There’s A Chance, Come to the Temple to Look for Me
Ripples appeared in Kongjue’s gaze, which was like an old well.
Back then, he had chosen to become a monk because he was indifferent by nature.
Moreover, his biological mother had died early. Her father was cruel and ruthless, which was the opposite of Kongjue’s expectations.
Therefore, he chose to leave the palace and become a monk.
Gu Yihan had many sons and didn’t care about his strange request at all. He nodded and agreed.
Even now, Gu Yihan probably didn’t remember that he had a son who was a monk.
Kongjue also knew that after his father finally had a daughter, he had restrained his violent murderous nature.
Gu Yihan had become a little reasonable. Kongjue had heard less of Gu Yihan’s past acts of killing people at the slightest pretext.
It was said that it was because Gu Yihan had promised the gods that he would stop his massacres if he could get a daughter.
Kongjue originally wanted to avoid the secular world and not interfere.
However, he looked at Ye Siming, who was beside Gu Nuo’er.
This youth’s magic power was powerful. He must be an evil creature that ruled over an area.
He felt that given his current ability, he could not win against this youth.
However, was he just going to watch the youth stay by Gu Nuo’er’s side?
He only had one sister, and his father only restrained his killing sins for this daughter.
In other words, Gu Nuo’er was very important.
As Gu Nuo’er was talking to Ye Siming, she saw from the corner of her eye that the monk older brother had walked in again.
He seemed hesitant to speak as if he didn’t know how to bring this up.
Gu Nuo’er was curious. “What’s wrong with monk older brother? Do you still want some pastries?”
Kong Jue shook his head gently.
“Benefactor, this poor monk feels that you are fated with Buddha and have received your favor. This poor monk wants to invite you to visit Taiping Monastery on the Eastern Suburb Mountain when you are free.”
That was where Kongjue lived.
It used to be a dilapidated old temple.
Later on, after Kongjue went over, he realized that there was still a forgotten Buddha statue inside.
Therefore, he cleaned up the place and since then, watched over this ancient temple that few people cared about.
Kongjue knew that no matter what evil creature it was, it would become weak in front of a true Buddha.
He wanted to protect Gu Nuo’er.
When Ye Siming heard Kongjue’s words, he raised his eyebrows slightly and remained silent.
Jiang Xiaoran was shocked. “There’s a temple on the Eastern Suburb Mountain? So that’s where you came from. It’s really far! It takes two hours just to walk over, right?!”
Kongjue nodded.
However, Gu Nuo’er felt that her monk brother was inviting her to play.
Her pink face pouted, pushing up two adorable lumps of meat.
She smiled sweetly. “Alright! I’ll go if there’s a chance!”
At this moment, some people’s complaints sounded outside—
“Oh my! Is it raining?”
“Why is it suddenly raining when the weather was fine a moment ago?!”
Most of the customers who were queuing up just now had left. Some also chose to enter the shop to avoid the rain.
Kongjue wanted to leave first, but Gu Nuo’er grabbed his kasaya with her small hand.
“Monk older brother, you should wait for a while too. The rain is heavy and your home is so far away. You’ll get sick if you get wet.”
Kongjue hesitated for a moment before nodding quietly.
“Amitabha. Thank you, Benefactor.”
Then, he stood by the door frame and tried his best not to block other people’s path or cause trouble for Gu Nuo’er.
However, he didn’t expect the heavy rain to continue until evening!
Even Gu Nuo’er had already slept twice in Ye Siming’s arms.
When she woke up while rubbing her big watery eyes, the sky was already dark because of the rain.
There were not many customers left in the shop, and Kongjue was about to leave as well.
Gu Nuo’er invited him in a soft voice, “Monk older brother, your home is too far away. We’ll give you a ride in our carriage!”
