Chapter 302 Reunion in Kyoto
Hearing this, Luo Xiaoran's eyes flickered. She didn't expect that Huineng had the same idea as her on the issue of "how to deal with oneself after traveling through time".
Why do we have to live as the original owner after traveling through time?
Who stipulates that after traveling through time, one must inherit the original owner's identity and get involved in the original owner's past right and wrong?
Are you still living for yourself? You are living for the original owner!
Maybe there really are immortals in this world? It was the immortal in heaven who opened a backdoor for her, allowing her to come back to life in Zhu Jingshu's body.
In Luo Xiaoran's view, she was very grateful for having a second life after waking up in Zhu Jingshu's body, but this was not something she had control over.
Therefore, she didn't owe Zhu Jingshu anything! And she didn't owe Zhu Jingshu's family anything!
You can say she is selfish or self-interested!
She did not take the initiative to look for Zhu Jingshu's family, nor did she think of living in her place and using her identity.
If Zhu Jingshu could still express her thoughts, would she be willing to let a stranger use her body to get close to her family and live like that?
What's more, driven by various reasons, she killed Lin Qianqian and avenged Zhu Jingshu, thus paying off the debt of using Zhu Jingshu's body!
She promised her parents that she would live a good life. She wanted to live her own life. She couldn't live under anyone else's identity!
She is Luo Xiaoran, not Zhu Jingshu!
Huineng's story was still going on. Luo Xiaoran, who had been slightly distracted just now, quickly concentrated and listened carefully.
"Li Yifan believed that it was his efforts in catching fish that enabled us to have food to eat and survive before we found the village. Therefore, among the three of us, he always regarded himself as the boss and showed his leadership style everywhere.
Before I traveled through time, I was a few years older than Li Yifan, so I was considered his older brother. Therefore, I gave in to him in everything. However, when it came to A Shui's stay or departure, I had to argue for my rights.
Li Yifan was very angry when he saw me refute his decision.
I know that he was not worried about Ah Shui's safety and that was why he didn't want to send her back. Li Yifan fell in love with Ah Shui and didn't want to let her go!
Yes! What man wouldn’t like a beautiful and considerate woman like Ah Shui?
But I can't let Li Yifan's selfishness affect A Shui's future destiny.
Since the money from pawning the jewelry was in my hands, Li Yifan still had some reservations and he didn't dare to really break up with me.
I told Li Yifan to let Ah Shui decide for himself whether to stay with us or go back to the palace!
Li Yifan thought about it and agreed.
While arguing about this, we avoided A Shui, but the sound of our quarrel still attracted her.
The timing was right, so we gave the right to choose to A Shui.
Ah Shui was very happy when he was with us. After all, Li Yifan and I were time travelers from the modern era, so we were better at taking care of girls and making them happy. Under our care, Ah Shui's personality gradually changed from quiet to lively.
A Shui was silent for a while, then raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Li Yifan and me seriously, and told us her final choice.
She enjoyed the time she spent with us, she felt happy and free, but she also wanted to know who she was, why she fell into the river, and where her family was.
A Shui always felt that she had a deep concern, so she chose to return to the palace.
I looked at Li Yifan. He reluctantly agreed to send A Shui back to the palace, but in order to avoid any regrets, he still wanted to take A Shui to play in the nearby provincial capital.
After all, returning to the palace means, to some extent, that A Shui has lost his freedom.
A Shui and I readily agreed, and the three of us had a lot of fun, but we all felt sad about the impending separation.
After that, we used the money we had to buy supplies and hired a carriage to go to Kyoto.
Because we didn't want to part soon, we didn't walk fast. We could even enjoy the scenery along the way as we walked towards Kyoto.
Less than a month later, we went into the city as usual and stayed at an inn. After resting for a night, I went out to buy supplies early in the morning, leaving Li Yifan in the inn to protect A Shui.
But when I came back, I saw a team of guards standing in front of the inn.
The light armor the guards were wearing looked familiar to me. Before I could remember where I had seen it before, I saw—
Ah Shui, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked out of the inn escorted by the guards.
Standing next to her was Li Yifan. The clothes Li Yifan was wearing were the same as the guards in front of the inn, and also the same as the ones he was wearing when I found him by the river.
In just a moment, I understood everything.
The guards in front of the inn were here to pick up Ah Shui, and the original owner of the body that Li Yifan transmigrated into was also one of the guards.
I still remember that day that Ah Shui was wearing a blue dress whose name I couldn’t remember. Her hair bun was particularly beautiful and she only had light makeup on her face.
The sun rose, and the soft sunlight shone on her. Golden light was dancing from her hair to her feet, just like the Queen Mother of the West.
Li Yifan was talking to the guards who came to pick them up. A Shui stood in front of the inn, looking around.
I knew she was looking for me, and I was standing not far from the inn, and her eyes quickly fell on me.
Maybe A Shui told Li Yifan about what he saw me, and he looked at me accurately in the same direction.
A Shui wanted to wave his hand to say hello to me happily. At this time, Li Yifan lowered his head and said something to A Shui. A Shui showed a hesitant expression on his face, and then he looked at me deeply, opened his lips and said three words, then got on the carriage prepared by the guards.
Li Yifan also glanced at me and blinked his right eye mischievously, which was totally inconsistent with his solemn black armor. He left the same three words.
'See you in Kyoto.'
I don’t know why Li Yifan persuaded A Shui not to let me go with them, but he must have his reasons, I think.
So I drove the carriage to Kyoto alone. I had Huineng's pass to Kyoto with me, so the journey was smooth.
After arriving in Kyoto, I found a medium-sized inn to stay in.
While I was eating, someone in the inn asked me my Buddhist name. I said the name Huineng, and I didn’t expect that several people knew Huineng.
Through conversations with them, I learned that although Huineng was young, he was a well-known and accomplished monk.
Although the Anruo Temple where he became a monk was not in the capital but far away in Yizhou in the north, it could be considered the national temple of Daliang.
If nothing unexpected happens, Li Yifan and Ah Shui may be in the palace. I was worried about how to find them. Now that I know something about the original owner Huineng, I decided to let them come to me. "
