The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Chapter 1005: When the lights are close together, the fire will shine

Shi Anrou blushed when Shi Anxia suddenly mentioned the tablet.

Wei Cailing didn't understand. "What immortality tablet? Whose is it?"

Shi Anxia pursed her lips and smiled, "Ask her."

Shi Anrou glanced at Wei Cailing, and seeing Shi Yunqi also laughing, she couldn't help but ask, "Brother is laughing so happily too? Do you understand?"

Shi Yunqi smiled at the corners of his moist mouth, "I didn't understand, but seeing you guys laughing happily, I feel happy too."

Shi Anrou: "..."

She had never had such a relaxing time in her life, and she actually saw a hint of doting in Shi Yunqi's smile.

Or maybe that was something only for Shi Anxia, ​​but she was also greedy for it.

She fled in a panic, and heard laughter behind her, which was warm and not mocking.

Wei Cailing warned in a hoarse voice, "Run slowly, be careful not to fall."

Shi Anrou ran back to the house, tears streaming down her face without her realizing it.

She hadn't cried for a long time. She had been through so much in the world that she gradually became numb.

But today, for some reason, my eye sockets felt hot and burning again and again.

In her past and present lives, Shi Anrou had always lived on thin ice, and she couldn't even sleep well. She had never felt the warmth of home as truly as she did today.

She slowly fell onto the warm and soft bed, looked up at the embroidered tent ceiling, and let her tears slide silently.

In fact, when Shi Anrou rolled down from the ninety-nine steps of Baoguo Temple, she was determined to die and didn't want to live anymore.

But she was lucky. Not only did she survive, but she was also reminded of an event in the past that she had deliberately forgotten.

In her previous life, she had been a carrier of Zi Gu because of her fate match, to save the life of Queen Dowager Huizheng.

At that time, various forces took turns to join the battle, saying that "this is a good deed that will benefit the world for centuries and benefit the present."

But what is the reality? Queen Mother Huizheng can be saved, but once she is planted with the Gu, she will become a puppet controlled by others, lose her self-awareness, and become a walking corpse.

Fortunately, planting the Gu requires willingness to succeed.

Shi Anrou naturally refused to obey. No matter how eloquent those people were, she just kept on saying, "My life is also my life! I don't want to, I won't do it, I don't agree!"

Everyone was at a loss, and finally they asked the highly respected Master Jiyuan to persuade her.

She had already made up her mind that she would never give in no matter how eloquent Master Jiyuan was.

Shi Anrou was sent to Baoguo Temple.

The old monk told her several stories of reincarnation in a leisurely manner. His voice was as calm as an ancient well, but every word touched her heart.

She listened attentively and asked, "Master, is there really reincarnation in this world?"

Master Jiyuan gently placed the Bodhi seed in his hand on the table, making a slight "click" sound.

He pointed his old finger at a withered crabapple tree outside the window and said, "Look at that withered flower, do you still remember what it looked like when it first bloomed?"

Shi Anrou frowned and looked, only to see fallen petals all over the ground.

"When I entered the temple at the age of seven, this crabapple tree was already there." The master's voice was gentle with the accumulation of years. "The flowers bloom the same every year, but the people who appreciate them are different every year. What do you think, is it that this year's flowers go to the next life, or that next year's flowers remember this life?"

Shi Anrou felt dizzy after hearing this.

"Reincarnation is not in the clouds, but in the heart." Master Jiyuan pushed a cup of hot tea in front of her.

Shi Anrou drank hot tea and listened to the story. She thought the old monk was ridiculous. He thought that these words could make her nod. He underestimated her.

Shi Anrou stayed in Baoguo Temple for three days, eating light porridge and side dishes every day and listening to the morning bells and evening drums.

Master Jiyuan never mentioned the matter of planting the Gu, but he often looked at her quietly with his eyes that saw through the world when he was preaching.

On the morning of the fourth day, when Shi Anrou was packing her bag and preparing to go down the mountain, a young monk came running over, clasped his hands together and bowed deeply, "Lady donor, Master Jiyuan said that you should light a green lamp in front of the Buddha."

She followed the young monk through the corridors shrouded in morning mist, and the sound of chanting from the Mahavira Hall could be heard faintly. In the long-light room on the side of the hall, Master Jiyuan was refilling a jade lamp with oil.

She subconsciously took a half step back, "I have to be willing to plant the Gu, Master, please don't confuse me."

Master Jiyuan finally turned around, his cassock still stained with morning dew, "I invited you here today just to light a lamp." His skinny fingers gently stroked the lamp, "This lamp burns the cause and effect, illuminates the original mind, and has nothing to do with planting Gu."

Shi Anrou took the fire starter with some doubt, and with trembling fingertips, she lit the green lamp in front of her. The wick made a light "crackling" sound, and the dancing flames cast flickering shadows in her eyes.

I also heard Master Jiyuan say, "The lamp next to it is the eternal lamp that Empress Dowager Huizheng has accumulated half her life's merits. If the lamps are close to each other, the flames will reflect each other."

After saying this, Master Jiyuan asked her to go down the mountain.

After Shi Anrou came down the mountain, she returned to her boring life that she could foresee the end of.

When I have nothing to do, I start to think about random things.

The light and shadow of the green lamp was still flickering before her eyes, intertwined with the "reincarnation in past lives" narrated by Master Jiyuan, lingering in her mind.

One day she woke up from a dream with a startled thought, could she live her life again?

If she had it to do over again, she would probably live a better life than she does now, right?

When lamps are placed close together, their flames will reflect each other. The ever-burning lamp that has melted the merits of half a lifetime is right next to her lamp. It is so close, so it should also illuminate her, right?

If she is willing to become a Zi Gu and save the life of Queen Dowager Huizheng, will she also be blessed in her next life?

Finally, after much thought, Shi Anrou decided that she didn't want to live this boring life anymore and was willing to become the carrier of the sub-Gu.

That day, Master Jiyuan personally went down the mountain to protect her. He hung a green lamp in the center of the altar, and the flame did not move at all in the wind.

The master said, "The lamp that the donor lights in front of the Buddha is guided by the spirit. Even if the body is like a puppet, as long as the lamp in the heart is not extinguished, there will be a day of liberation."

He also said, "I will make sure your soul is clear."

……

A soft hand gently wiped away the tears on Shi Anrou's face, and Shi Anxia fell beside her.

The voice was so soft, "Sister An Rou, I didn't know before that you were the carrier of the sub-gu for me... If I had known earlier, I think I would have treated you better."

Shi Anxia fixed his gaze on the top of the tent, and said, "From now on, life will be long. We all need to be fine. As long as I am here, I will protect you and ensure a smooth life."

Shi Anrou cried out in pain. She covered her mouth with her hands and cried very sadly.

She has been waiting for these words for two lifetimes!

She actually had such a day, she could lie on the same bed with Queen Dowager Huizheng at the same time. It was like two ever-burning lamps, the lamps were close to each other, and the flames would reflect each other.

She carefully stretched out her hand, wanting to hold Shi Anxia's hand, but she didn't dare. She stretched out halfway and then retracted it.

But it was Shi Anxia who grabbed her and said fiercely, "Don't be sneaky in the future! And don't carve a tablet for me anymore, do you hear me?"

Shi Anrou was yelled at and started crying again, "Don't be so mean to me... wuwuwu... hehehe..."
