The Big Family's Endless Love: The Chief's Happy Enemy

Chapter 254 The Obsession Is Too Deep
Suso painted until about five o'clock in the afternoon and packed up the easel.

The evening scenery on the top of the cliff is very beautiful. The golden-rimmed sunset exudes soft light, which perfectly outlines the outline of the surrounding green peaks and green water.

Su Suo stood on the edge of the cliff, staring at the red sun in the west with his eyes wide open, and only wanted to keep the last moment of light in the day.

He suddenly remembered that his sister-in-law Xuge said that Bailan jumped off Qingfengya at this moment when the sun was setting.

He opened his hands, feeling grateful for the scene of Bai Lan jumping down.

A gust of cool wind blew by, causing him to let go of his hands and his sorrow of parting.

Yes, he should leave. He couldn't go down the mountain when it was dark. He didn't bring a lamp.

When we arrived at Qingfeng Temple, it was already dark, and it was really early in the mountains.

The little monk walked up to him at this time and kindly took his heavy easel for him, guessing that he was very tired.

"Benefactor, the food is ready, I'll get it for you right now."

"Thank you little master!"

After the little monk helped him put the easel back into the room, he left.

After a while, the little monk brought food on a brown wooden tray and put it on the table in his room.

After the little monk put the food away, he didn't go out of his room as usual, but sat at the table and watched him eat.

Su Suo smiled at him and started eating by himself.

It's just that the little monk stared at him closely, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

Or the little monk saw his discomfort, and the little monk started to talk, "Benefactor, where are you going to paint tomorrow?"

Su Suo told the truth: "I still go to the cliff, but I don't go up. I only get halfway. I want to paint a picture of Qingfeng Temple dotted with this mountain forest."

"Wow! That painting must be very beautiful, because every time I come down from the cliff, I like to look at the temple from that angle. I think it is very beautiful and warm, as if I found it in the dark. The feeling of light."

Su Suo smiled slightly: "I know, you feel a sense of home, that is, you are tired, and you are about to return home."

The little monk nodded sharply: "That's right."

Su Suo was bored and asked him, "How old are you?"

The little monk said, "I am 16 years old."

Su Suo frowned: "Why don't you go to school at the age of 16, stay here."

The little monk smiled and said: "I am an orphan. The master picked me up when he went down the mountain more than ten years ago. Later, I lived in this temple. Because the master is here, there is a scenic spot nearby, and there is no school, so I have no I go to school, but I have studied Chinese, mathematics, and even English.”

"Ah!" Su Suo exclaimed, and asked again: "Who taught you?"

"Master! Master is very knowledgeable. He taught me to read since I was a child, and he taught several children in the monastery."

"Then your master is so knowledgeable, why is he willing to stay in this temple?" Having said that, Su Suo is inevitably very curious about Master Shanyuan.

The little monk rubbed his head, looked out the door worriedly, then leaned into Susuo's ear, and said softly: "Master came here because he was hurt by love. He came here at a very young age. I heard that a girl he loved very much abandoned him."

Su Suo shook his head, his face was gloomy, and he just sighed: "I didn't expect Master Shanyuan to be a person with deep obsession." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of his adoptive father again.

Why are people always trapped by love? Because of an obsession, they are deeply trapped in it and cannot extricate themselves.

For example, Su Mingqi, his adoptive father, planned for 30 years because of an obsession, just for revenge, and let so many people accompany him to be hurt.

For example, Bai Lan chose to end her young and beautiful life in Qingfengya because of an obsession.

Another example is Master Shanyuan, who practiced here for decades because of an obsession.

The little monk looked at Su Suo in a daze, and reminded Su Suo, "Benefactor, eat quickly, the food is cold."

"Oh...Okay, okay." Su Suo came to his senses and smiled at the little monk, and then began to eat with both hands
The little monk found another topic and said to him: "Benefactor, are you ready to go home after painting the temple?"

Su Suo looked up at him, and after eating the food in his mouth, he said, "I still want to look around here."

"Oh!" At this time, the little monk pointed in one direction and said, "Benefactor, after you finish painting the temple, you can go to Qingyun Temple to have a look. There are many exotic flowers and plants, and there is also a big orange orchard." Then he Pointing to the two oranges left on the table, "This orange was sent by a sister of Qingyun Temple."

Su Suo said: "Qingyun Temple is full of women, so I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for me to go there alone?"

The little monk hurriedly said: "It's convenient, it's very convenient. Didn't my master tell you to go there? Because the scenery there is really beautiful. You can draw a lot of beautiful scenery. I guess you stay there I don't even want to leave."

"Really? The scenery is even more beautiful than here." Suso was curious.

The little monk nodded vigorously, "It's true, if you don't go, you will definitely regret it, and the master and sisters of Qingyun Temple are very friendly, and they will definitely welcome you very much."

After the little monk finished speaking, he took out a Buddhist scripture from his chest pocket and handed it to Su Suo, saying to him, "If you go, I want you to help me bring this book to a sister in the monastery. That is the sister who brought the oranges, her name is Qinglan."

Su Suo took the book and replied with a smile: "Okay, it's Qinglan, right! Then I'll go the day after tomorrow."

There was a smile on the little monk's face, the smile was so innocent, it was very painful.The little monk pointed to the book that Su Suo put on the table and said, "Qinglan came here yesterday to borrow this book, but I never found it. After she left, I found it again."

"Oh!" Su Suo nodded slightly, and said, "Don't worry, I will help you bring this book to her the day after tomorrow."

"Then thank you." Seeing that Su Suo had finished eating, the little monk got up, picked up the plate, smiled and left.

After watching the little monk go out, Su Suo closed the door, then picked up the Buddhist scripture on the table and looked through it.

His Chinese is actually not good, and he doesn't know many characters.It's all because he grew up in England and all he learned is English, but because Su Mingqi's mother, also known as grandma, has always spoken Chinese to him, there is no problem in speaking.

Later, he also learned Chinese characters by himself, but because he was too busy with his studies, he was not very thorough in learning.

Because the scriptures are in the pinyin version, he can still read them by relying on the pinyin. When he encounters a word he doesn't know, he takes out his mobile phone to look it up in the dictionary.

The night was boring. After washing his clothes and adding some color to today's painting, he lay on the bed, holding this scripture and carefully reading it.

He also wanted to take advantage of this free time to learn Chinese and learn about Buddhism.
