Le Wan looked up at the endless stairs, then looked at the two professors who were not out of breath or blushing. She sincerely admitted that her physical strength was indeed not as good as that of the two elders.
However, Le Wan was a good child who knew etiquette. Although she couldn't hold on any longer, she couldn't lose her temper and refuse to leave when she thought about the two professors who had kindly led the way for them and helped them with the hearing procedures.
So, she gritted her teeth, and with the help of Zhai Jingkai, followed the old couple step by step to the top of the mountain.
When she saw the big platform on the top of the mountain, Le Wan finally gave up her strong will, her legs went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
If Zhai Jingkai hadn't supported her, she would have fallen to the ground, which caused Professor Yao to tease her unceremoniously, saying that she was too lazy.
Le Wan could only gasp for breath and was completely unable to refute his ridicule. She could only secretly decide to intensify her training when she returned.
Climbing a mountain is indeed a very difficult thing, but when you reach the top, stand on the high place, facing the mountain breeze, look into the distance, and look at the scenery of mountains at the foot of the mountain, the ambition of "seeing all the mountains as small" immediately surges into your heart, and you will have a special sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in your heart.
At this moment, you will feel that no matter how hard the journey has been, it is worth it.
Only by experiencing it yourself can you understand why so many people love mountain climbing.
Zhai Jingkai walked up to her and hugged her. They leaned on the railing and admired the beautiful scenery in front of them.
"How was it? Did you rest?"
Le Wan took a deep breath of fresh air.
"I'm taking a break now."
Zhai Jingkai reached out and helped her tidy up her hair that was messed up by the mountain breeze.
"Then let's go to the temple and fulfill our wish."
Professor Yao and his wife often come here to climb the mountain, so they don’t need to come specially to fulfill their vow. After exchanging contact information, they went their separate ways.
Zhai Jingkai held Le Wan's hand and walked into the Taoist temple, where he met the temple's abbot.
The other person was wearing a Taoist robe. He was obviously stunned when he saw Zhai Jing. Then he saluted with one hand and said with a smile.
"My little benefactor, how are you? Are you here to ask for a talisman again?"
Zhai Jingkai didn't expect that the other party still remembered him, so he returned a greeting.
"Hello. I'm not here to do any business today."
The master of the temple then noticed Le Wan holding Zhai Jingkai's hand and smiled knowingly.
"It seems that Mr. Zhai's wish has been fulfilled. This time, you have also fulfilled your wish, right?"
Zhai Jingkai nodded.
"Yes, I came here today to fulfill one of my wishes."
Le Wan saw that the master's smile became even more relaxed after hearing this. It was obvious that the master had received another sum of money today and was very happy.
After saying goodbye to the abbot, Zhai Jingkai took Le Wan into the main hall and took out a bag of incense and candles from his backpack.
Le Wan looked at his backpack curiously.
"How come your backpack is like a treasure chest, you can take out anything.
And you carried so many things when you climbed the mountain, isn’t it heavy? Aren’t the things too many?”
It was indeed a bit heavy, but I had no problem carrying it on my back. After all, I was used to it. "The most important thing is..."
He glanced around and found that no one was paying attention to them, so he said softly:
"The things in the Taoist temple are too expensive. For example, the price of these incense and candles is too high, several times more expensive than outside."
The last time he came to the temple, he originally planned to go into the Taoist temple to burn incense for the ancestors enshrined in the temple, but when he walked over and took a look, he found that the price of incense was ridiculously high.
He immediately gave up the plan and sighed inwardly.
"In this day and age, burning incense to ancestors is divided into rich and poor."
Le Wan listened to his sigh and chuckled.
"Then you should burn two more sticks of incense to the Three Pure Ones. After all, you didn't even burn incense last time, but the Three Pure Ones blessed you and made your wish come true."
"What you said makes sense, so I prepared an extra portion." Zhai Jingkai took out a set of incense and candles from his backpack.
This time it was Le Wan's turn to be speechless.
She found that although Zhai Jingkai was such a smart person, because he was serious and stubborn, he could sometimes be a little silly, which made him particularly cute.
Le Wan was so adorable that she couldn't help but hug him tightly in front of the Three Pure Ones and rub her chin against his chest.
"How can you be so cute?"
The soft body pressed against him, and a slight friction was felt. Zhai Jingkai's body stiffened instantly. He raised his hands high and turned his head away unnaturally.
"The Three Pure Ones are watching. Stop making trouble and let's burn some incense."
The two of them hadn't had any intimate contact for several days, and Le Wan took the initiative to throw herself into his arms. This was a bit too stimulating. Zhai Jingkai was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold back and would make a fool of himself.
Looking at his red and swollen neck, Le Wan found it funny. He was obviously very skilled in bed, but he was easily laughed at after getting out of bed.
"Who made you so seductive?" Le Wan pinched his nose playfully and shook it twice before letting him go.
Zhai Jingkai touched his slightly red nose and whispered in her ear:
"If only you could be so proactive in bed."
This time it was Le Wan's turn to blush.
After burning incense and donating money, the two came to the marriage tree outside the temple and tied the two red lines into concentric circles according to the method taught by the young Taoist priest.
"Give it to me and I'll hang it high."
Zhai Jingkai stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hand, hung concentric circles on the highest branch he could reach, and tied a knot.
When he looked down, he saw Le Wan making a wish with her eyes closed.
Le Wan's wish was very long, and it took her almost a minute to make it.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she met Zhai Jingkai's burning gaze.
Coincidentally, a group of tourists came over to hang red ropes.
Zhai Jingkai took her hand and walked out, not forgetting to ask her,
"What wish did you make?"
Le Wan turned around and looked at the sea of red ropes floating in the wind on the tree. She wondered how long these red ropes could stay here. If this tree really had a spirit, then she hoped it could stay a little longer.
She turned her head and met Zhai Jingkai's puzzled gaze. After a pause, she said charmingly:
"I will not tell you."
Zhai Jingkai rubbed his face helplessly.
"Even if you didn't tell me, I could guess it."
After all, they were standing under the marriage tree... wasn't marriage what they wanted?
"I just heard from Professor Yao that the vegetarian dishes at this Taoist temple are very good. Since it's not too late, I used my phone to reserve a seat."
Nowadays, Taoist temples have kept pace with the times. Not only can they use mobile phones to pay for purchases and donations, they also have their own APP and public accounts, where guests can receive relevant notifications, and can also book vegetarian meals, accommodation and other functions.
After climbing the mountain for several hours, Le Wan felt a little hungry, so she agreed.
"Okay, let's try it..."
Le Wan didn't understand why the Taoist temple also followed suit and opened a vegetarian restaurant. After all, most Taoists were not allowed to eat meat. Perhaps this was also a marketing strategy of the Taoist temple. Since Professor Yao said it was delicious, it should taste good, so it might as well try it.
The two were walking towards the cafeteria behind the hall when the master suddenly appeared in front of them again.
"Master Zhai, aren't you going to have a divination today?"
Zhai Jingkai shook his head.
"No, don't be too greedy."
For him, his current life is already very satisfying, and he just needs to keep working hard to continue to be happy.
The master of the temple showed a look of regret and turned to look at Le Wan.
"My lady benefactor, would you like to have a divination? Or are you like this benefactor Zhai, and have no other requests?"
Le Wan shook her head.
"Of course, I have something to ask you, but I have already asked the Three Pure Ones in the main hall, and I think if they hear me, they will definitely protect me. As the saying goes, do your best and leave the rest to fate. I have already told heaven, so I just need to do my best."
When the master of the temple heard this, a trace of emotion appeared on his face.
"You two donors are really sharp-sighted. I think even without divination, we can turn disaster into blessing." Zhai Jing and Le Wan also returned the gift and said:
"Then I will borrow the auspicious words of the temple master."
Although the abbot said this, he still showed a look of regret when he saw Zhai Jingkai and his wife leaving hand in hand.
Seeing this, the young Taoist priest walked over in confusion.
"Master, a fortune-telling only costs a few dozen yuan. Why are you so bothered by these two people? Don't we have many customers here? If they don't tell fortunes, there are many more waiting for you to tell fortunes."
The abbot stared at him in disappointment.
"What do you know? I always teach you to read more books and learn more skills, but in the end you just slack off and have no vision at all."
The young Taoist priest didn't expect to be scolded for no reason, so he quickly found an excuse to slip away.
It is impossible for the temple master to be so enthusiastic to every guest who comes to burn incense. After all, although their Taoist temple is not big, there are many tourists on weekdays. At most, he can only recognize a few regulars.
The reason why he remembered Zhai Jing and treated him differently was because Zhai Jing had some experience in physiognomy.
When Zhai Jingkai went up the mountain to ask for a talisman, the master of the temple noticed at first glance that his face looked a little strange.
Judging from Zhai Jingkai's original appearance, he must have gone through a lot of hardships, all his relatives were cut off, and then he experienced an extremely miserable and short life.
Many people have their own opinions, so in his eyes, this is not a strange face. What makes him feel strange is that at the base of this face, there is a layer of purple air, and that purple air has a tendency to gradually change the original appearance.
The emergence of this situation means that Zhai Jingkai's life has come to a crossroads. If he drives in the normal direction, he will eventually face death in a car accident, but if he can grasp that glimmer of hope, he can escape his original fate. In the end, the worst thing will still happen.
The abbot of the temple has the virtue of a cultivator who loves life. He specially came out to ask Zhai Jingkai to do divination to see if he could give Zhai Jingkai some advice to help him seize that glimmer of hope.
Originally he just did one good deed every day, but then he put it out of his mind.
But he didn't expect that one morning he would suddenly wake up and feel that he had done merit. This proved that he had done a very good thing before, and this good thing brought other good results.
The master of the temple was pleasantly surprised, but also somewhat confused as to where this merit came from.
