Yuan Xiu carried Gu Shengyin all the way out of the courtyard, and the disciples of the Lotus Platform Sect who saw him holding a little fox were all very surprised.
Gu Shengyin listened to so of these people calling Yuan Xiu "Uncle Master" and so even calling him "Ancestor Master Xiao", which made her feel a bit surprised about his identity.
It seems that this little monk who hasn’t even completed his tonsure has an extraordinary identity.
Yuan Xiu appeared to walk slowly, but actually, he quickly reached the gate of the Lotus Platform Sect.
He gently squatted down and placed Gu Shengyin on the ground, softly saying, "Little fox benefactor, can you walk back by yourself?"
Gu Shengyin nodded.
Yuan Xiu looked at her, and suddenly felt a bit reluctant: Could it be that after parting today, it would be hard to et again?
He sighed, silently recited so Buddhist scriptures, retracted the lancholy in his heart, and told himself that everything was predestined.
Unexpectedly, his robe was tugged on.
He lowered his head again to see the small white fox tugging at his robe with her paw. When she saw him finally looking at her, she let go and waved one of her paws at him vigorously.
He couldn’t help but smile, and the lancholy disappeared without a trace.
"Little fox benefactor, goodbye," he seriously bid farewell to her.
People on the roadside saw soone from the Lotus Platform Sect talking to a fox and didn’t find it strange—there were many strange people in the entire Lotus Platform Sect, and this was just one more.
After exchanging farewells with her lover, Gu Shengyin dashed back.
It was getting dark soon, and she had never returned ho this late before. Yun Shu would probably be worried.
Sure enough, she only got halfway when Gu Shengyin saw the familiar figure.
"Qing Bo," Yun Shu, who was walking anxiously on the street, spotted the little white bundle of Gu Shengyin running along the road, and called out to her joyfully, squatting down to pick her up.
"Qing Bo, where did you go? I was worried sick," Yun Shu couldn’t help but complain.
She was really anxious; ever since she beca conscious, she had always lived in that Peach Blossom Forest, and the only one who could communicate with her and grew up with her was Qing Bo.
Although now there was Bodhi Nanny, who was also very nice, Qing Bo was still the most important person in Yun Shu’s heart.
Gu Shengyin also knew she had worried her today, so she barked at her a few tis very consciously.
"Sorry Yun Shu, I went to the Lotus Platform Sect, and forgot to tell you."
How could Yun Shu really be angry with her? She had just spoken a bit harshly in her anxiety.
Soon, Gu Shengyin coaxed her into laughter, and she carried her back ho.
"Returned?" Bodhi Nanny looked at the pair with a smile as they walked back.
"I told you that nothing could happen to you in this Lotus City, but Yun Shu just couldn’t stop worrying and insisted on going out to look for you, and I couldn’t persuade her otherwise."
Gu Shengyin felt a warmth in her heart, barked softly at Yun Shu a few tis, and just snuggled in her arms without saying a word.
Bodhi Nanny looked at the two and couldn’t help but smile. She waved them off: "Alright, both of you must be tired, there’s food prepared in the room. Go eat and get so rest."
...
Gu Shengyin went to the Lotus Platform Sect again the next day.
This ti, she let Yun Shu and Bodhi Nanny know in advance, telling them she would be back in the evening and not to worry.
"Yuan Xiu..."
Gu Shengyin didn’t know that after she left, Bodhi Nanny sat alone in the courtyard, mumbling this na and beca a little lost in thought.
