Have you ever made games? Then you should write about games!

According to the logarithmic time perception theory found online, as a person gets older, their perception of time becomes increasingly dulled, which means that if you're not careful, a week may have passed before you realize it.

Yin Qingying strongly agrees with this point.

She felt as if a week had passed in the blink of an eye.

With the blink of an eye, he found himself standing at the foot of Lingyin Mountain, where Lingyin Temple is located.

Yin Qingying looked around and saw a bustling scene all around, with stalls and vendors selling Buddhist souvenirs everywhere, their cries and shouts filling the air.

The items at the stalls were very cheap, almost ten times cheaper than buying them directly inside Lingyin Temple, but few people stopped to look.

With such a cheap price and such a simple stall, who would believe you if you said you had a sacred artifact blessed by a high-ranking monk?

"Sorry I'm late."

In the sweltering summer heat, Chen Dong's forehead was still covered in fine beads of sweat from his earlier run, which slid down his cheeks to his chin and then dripped to the ground.

"It's alright, Mr. Chen, I just arrived too."

Yin Qingying shook her head, took a tissue from her small handbag, and handed it to Chen Dong.

Afterwards, Yin Qingying put her fair hands behind her back and walked directly towards Lingyin Temple on the mountain.

At this moment, Chen Dong finally saw Yin Qingying's outfit clearly.

The clothes she was wearing looked familiar; they seemed to be some loose-fitting clothes that Chen Dong had asked her to buy some time ago.

It looks very simple, without any flashy patterns, text, or printing; it just has a "Hello Kitty" cat drawn on its back.

Looking at the kitten wearing a bow, Chen Dong smiled silently.

It's not just girls who like it; many boys also love this cute little cat.

However, there are two types of boys who like Hello Kitty: those who are shameless and those who are stubborn.

After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chen Dong casually stuffed the tissue into his pocket and quickly followed.

Lingyin Mountain is not high. Even including Beigaofeng Peak, it is only about 300 meters high. Calling it a mountain is an exaggeration. It is more like a pimple on the face of the earth—a small hill.

Within ten or twenty minutes, the two saw the gate of Lingyin Temple.

Lingyin Temple is famous for two reasons: firstly, its rich historical heritage, and secondly, a TV series and a monk revered as the Living Buddha Ji Gong.

Looking at the flow of people coming and going under the temple gate, whether they were believers or not, everyone's face showed a hint of piety. Yin Qingying couldn't help but look at Chen Dong with curiosity.

"Mr. Chen, what brings you to Lingyin Temple today?"

"What do you ask for? Ask for whatever you can get!"

Chen Dong said nonchalantly, then strode into the crowd and walked into Lingyin Temple.

Although he had experienced time travel, Chen Dong had never really believed in gods, Buddhas, ghosts, or monsters.

If it weren't for sending local specialties to the readers in the group, he probably wouldn't have thought of visiting Lingyin Temple for a long time.

Chen Dong didn't notice that Yin Qingying was standing blankly behind him and didn't follow immediately.

"What does Mr. Chen mean by that...?"

According to the information Yin Qingying found, Lingyin Temple is quite effective in matters of marriage, offspring, and academic and career success, while Chen Dong is still single and the Star Card game is thriving.

Therefore, all Chen Dong sought was a marriage.

When those two words appeared in Yin Qingying's mind, she felt as if she had been burned, and her body trembled violently.

After Yin Qingying came to her senses, she saw Chen Dong standing not far ahead. She turned around and reminded him to hurry up and catch up so they wouldn't get separated.

So, Yin Qingying hurriedly stepped forward and followed closely behind Chen Dong.

For a moment, the faint scent of laundry detergent on Chen Dong's clothes lingered around his nose, along with the fragrance of shower gel that arose after he had sweated slightly.

Crossing the temple gate and passing through the crowd, the first hall the two arrived at was the Weizhen Sanzhou Hall, which enshrines Weituo Bodhisattva, Maitreya Buddha, and the Four Heavenly Kings. They prayed for peace and blessings, hoping for safe passage and happiness.

Chen Dong and Yin Qingying didn't care much about it. Adhering to the principle that since they were already there, they simply offered incense and went directly to the next hall.

On the way, Chen Dong kept looking around, searching for souvenir shops that sold related merchandise.

According to his plan, he could buy several ordinary souvenirs so that most of the readers in the group could receive a gift.

As for "blessed" religious artifacts, you might not be able to buy them in souvenir shops; you should try to purchase them from "high-ranking monks" in temples.

So, Chen Dong went to various halls to pay his respects while searching for the figure of the 'high monk'.

Yin Qingying stayed by Chen Dong's side the whole time. As the two of them finished paying their respects at the first five main halls and prepared to go to the last one, the Cihang Pudu Guanyin Hall, Yin Qingying could no longer control her nervousness, which gradually showed on her face.

This grand hall, dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva, is a place where people pray for good fortune, for happy marriages, and for lovers to be united in marriage.

Chen Dong didn't notice the unusual behavior of Yin Qingying beside him, because his attention was entirely focused on the old monk standing by the incense burner, chanting sutras for the worshippers who came to offer incense and pray to Buddha.

In order to inquire about how to purchase "consecrated" Buddhist artifacts, Chen Dong took three sticks of incense and bowed respectfully.

Seeing Chen Dong's devout expression, the old monk beside the incense burner murmured a Buddhist chant and then smiled at Chen Dong.

"If you worship sincerely, your wishes will surely come true."

Upon hearing this, Yin Qingying couldn't help but bow again, muttering incantations as she did so. After a while, she finally placed the incense sticks into the incense burner.

As she stood up, she secretly observed Chen Dong's expression beside her.

Seeing the hint of nervousness on his face, Yin Qingying felt her suspicions were becoming increasingly accurate, and her heart began to race.

However, Chen Dong looked nervous because he was struggling with what kind of opening remarks to make.

Seeing that the two were reluctant to leave, the old monk looked puzzled and took the initiative to ask.

"Does the benefactor have some concerns that this humble monk may offer some guidance?"

Chen Dong nodded repeatedly, took two steps forward, and whispered a few words in the old monk's ear.

The old monk's expression remained unchanged after listening. He stroked his gray beard, murmured a Buddhist chant, and then turned and led Chen Dong towards the backyard.

Although Yin Qingying didn't know what Chen Dong had whispered in the old monk's ear, judging from the relaxed and joyful expression on Chen Dong's face, it probably wasn't a bad thing.

As the two followed them into the backyard, the old monk had already brought out a box and placed it on the stone table in the backyard.

Opening the lid reveals a collection of neatly arranged amulets for finding love, good fortune, and 18-bead bracelets—all items that have been consecrated.

"Amitabha Buddha, Buddhism values ​​affinity, not money. Each item costs 8,800 yuan. Please choose whatever you like."

The old monk stroked his beard and looked at Chen Dong with a smile.

Chen Dong didn't care about the price. He glanced at it briefly and waved his hand dismissively.

"Deal, all of it packaged together, let's calculate the price."

Upon hearing this, the old monk suddenly exerted force with his right hand, which was stroking his beard, and tore off two strands of his white beard.

Many people come to buy "blessed" Buddhist artifacts, but it's the first time I've seen someone like Chen Dong buy them all up as soon as he opens his mouth.

"Esteemed benefactor, are you here to purchase goods?"
