Chapter 372 The opportunity is not over
Chapter 372 The opportunity is not over
When the abbot saw Li Siqi and Xu Yingying coming in, he slowly stood up and bowed respectfully to Li Siqi.
Li Siqi had an indifferent expression and only looked at Xu Yingying. Xu Yingying glanced at the two of them in pretended surprise, with some confusion deliberately revealed in her eyes.
"Brother Xiao, do you know the abbot?" Xu Yingying asked doubtfully.
After hearing Xu Yingying's words, Li Siqi came back to his senses, glanced at the abbot, and then shook his head, "Never seen him before."
"Then why did the abbot bow to you just now?" Xu Yingying obviously didn't believe what Li Siqi said.
Li Siqi did not respond to Xu Yingying, but raised his eyes and looked at the abbot again. In a place where Xu Yingying did not notice, Li Siqi was using his eyes to signal the abbot not to let the cat out of the bag.
Although the abbot had never seen Li Siqi, he could get a glimpse of it from the aura around Li Siqi. Although he didn't know why Li Siqi concealed his identity in front of this girl, the abbot really couldn't risk his own life to test him.
The abbot said to Xu Yingying, "Donatee, you are worrying too much. I have never met this donor before. I just saw that he has an extraordinary demeanor, so I..."
In fact, the abbot was not lying, and Xu Yingying was too lazy to worry about so many things. After all, she came here to ask important questions.
Xu Yingying glanced at the abbot, then at Li Siqi, and said to him, "Brother Xiao, I have something I want to ask the abbot in private. Could you please wait outside the door for a while?"
Xu Yingying had said all that, and Li Siqi couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "I'll be waiting outside the door. If there's anything, just call me."
After saying that, Li Siqi did not stay any longer and turned around to leave.
After watching Li Siqi leave, Xu Yingying looked towards the abbot.
"Donor, please." The abbot gestured to Xu Yingying to sit on the cushion opposite him, and then he sat down too.
"Sir, what is the purpose of coming to see me this time?" The abbot asked first. The abbot had a great affinity with Buddhism and was able to get a glimpse of the mysteries of heaven. Therefore, he generally knew the purpose of every person who came to seek him.
However, when the abbot looked at Xu Yingying in front of him, ripples appeared in his eyes, which had always been calm.
Now, in front of the abbot, Xu Yingying is a special existence. He doesn't know why Xu Yingying came here. He can't see it, nor can he figure it out. There is no way, the abbot can only ask actively himself.
Xu Yingying did not hesitate to reveal her origins. She said directly that she wanted to go home, but had no idea where to go. She hoped that the abbot could give her clear directions.
The abbot was silent for a moment, and understood the meaning of Xu Yingying's words. After a while, the abbot spoke.
"Donor, everything in the world has its destiny, cause and effect are cyclical, this is God's will. You are here probably because you have no way out. But, I am still not very experienced, I am afraid I can't help you." The abbot sighed deeply.
In just a moment, Xu Yingying felt like the sky was falling. She had come here with so much hardship, but she didn't expect to hear such an answer. Xu Yingying was a little unwilling to give up, and continued to ask: "Abbot, is there really no other way? I just want to go home, I want to go back to where I came from."
"Donor, don't force things. From my point of view, your opportunity has not yet ended. It is not reasonable for you to achieve your goal in a short period of time." The abbot couldn't bear to see Xu Yingying like this, so he had to say it vaguely.
“The opportunity is not over yet…?” Xu Yingying was stunned. Just as she was about to ask what the opportunity was, her mind suddenly turned to another place.
"Thank you for your guidance, Abbot." Xu Yingying was a smart person after all, and she knew what the abbot meant. If she wanted to return to the modern era, she had to resolve her own issues in the world. And the one who bound her the most was probably Li Siqi.
In other words, she must first resolve Li Siqi's regrets before she can completely leave this world.
Although Xu Yingying knew this, she still felt a headache. She had no feelings for Li Siqi at all. Although she was grateful for Li Siqi's care for her during this period, she could not find a sense of belonging in Li Siqi.
Coming out of the abbot's meditation room, Xu Yingying looked at Li Siqi who was standing outside under the shade of a tree waiting for her. Xu Yingying didn't know why she felt a little guilty.
"Brother Xiao, sorry to have kept you waiting." Xu Yingying calmed herself down and greeted Li Siqi, her tone much softer than before.
Li Siqi was also stunned for a moment. Although Xu Yingying's attitude changed slightly, Li Siqi still noticed it.
Li Siqi was very surprised, but he didn't show it on his face. However, Xu Yingying could still sense from his brisk footsteps that Li Siqi was in a very good mood.
The abbot's words were all there, so it was impossible for Xu Yingying to give up and go home.
In this case, she needs to work hard on Li Siqi. If the opportunity is not over, it means that Li Siqi still has a wish that has not been fulfilled. In this case, Xu Yingying thought that if she treats Li Siqi better now, maybe she can get it out of him what he wants.
Sanqing Temple is very large. After leaving the abbot, the two returned to the meditation room where they had lived in the past few days.
They planned to stay in Sanqing Temple for a while longer, and Li Siqi also wanted to take this opportunity to continue his efforts to ease the relationship between himself and Xu Yingying.
But this time, Li Siqi did not feel frustrated. On the contrary, Xu Yingying was very happy. She accepted all of Li Siqi's kindness and sometimes even took the initiative to care about Li Siqi, which was something Li Siqi had never dared to dream of during this period.
Li Siqi was overjoyed when his wish came true, but even so, he felt mixed emotions.
He knew clearly that Xu Yingying's attitude changed when she came out of the abbot's meditation room. Li Siqi didn't think that Xu Yingying suddenly remembered her previous memories. It was naturally something the abbot said.
Moreover, Xu Yingying's attitude towards him has changed so much, it seems that she has some ulterior motive. It is no wonder that Li Siqi thinks so. After all, Li Siqi is now worried about gains and losses.
While he was indulging in Xu Yingying's rare tenderness, he couldn't help feeling worried. He was afraid that everything before his eyes was just a mirage, as if it would disappear in the next second.
Now Li Siqi becomes more and more attached to Xu Yingying every day. Except for going to the toilet and sleeping, they are almost inseparable.
Xu Yingying couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to stay away from Li Siqi, but when she thought of her purpose, she held back.
