my land god boyfriend

Chapter 5

The next day, Xia Youning got up and brought some fruit snacks to the Earth Temple, only to find that Tan Yuhe was already there.He sat on the altar in the Earth Temple and watched Xia Youning walk over.

"It's so early. Have you had breakfast?" Xia Youning put the fruit on the altar, watching Tan Yuhe's eyebrows and eyes.

"Well, I got up early and had nothing to do, so I came here for a stroll." Tan Yuhe's tone was brisk, and he could see that he was in a good mood, and he became more lively, sitting on the altar and shaking his feet.

"I brought some snacks, do you have a taste?" Xia Youning opened a bag of potato chips, and handed it to Tan Yuhe, and Tan Yuhe started to eat it, and passed a piece to Xia Youning from time to time.Xia Youning's eyes darkened, he accepted his feeding, took out an apple, and gnawed it.

"When I was young, I was naughty and fell into the river in front of me. I couldn't swim, and I couldn't call for help. I felt that when I was about to die, someone pushed me and pushed me to the bank. The strange thing is that I didn't see it. The one who saved me." Xia Youning had an immature thought in her heart, so take it back!Take it back to me!The villains in the brain are fighting.

"Maybe the good guy left without leaving a name after saving you." Tan Yuhe finished eating the potato chips, took a peach and started to eat it too.

"Maybe, my grandma said the same thing. I forgot about it afterwards. Grandma kept saying that the gods bless me and let people come to save me."

"Blessed by the gods? Maybe."

After the two finished eating the fruit and disposed of the garbage. "Go back to my house?"

After returning home and saying hello to the family, Xia Youning took Tan Yuhe back to the room.

"I'm going to work on a computer later, you can watch it on a tablet today." Xia Youning took out the tablet and handed it to Tan Yuhe.

"I don't know how to use it, you help me."

"Well, the password is 1015, my birthday, and so..." Xia Youning showed him the operation, and then gave him the tablet to hug.

"It's the first time I've seen these things. I saw people in the village have cellphones, computers, and tablets. It's the first time I've seen them...it's amazing..." Tan Yuhe said to himself.

"Well, take a look." Xia Youning raised his hand, was stunned again, and patted the boy's hair, it was as soft as imagined.Tan Yuhe was already immersed in the fun of the video, and had no reaction to Xia Youning's actions.Xia Youning looked at the patterns, classifications, and efficacy of various traditional Chinese medicines described in the video. He was not interested, so he pulled the computer and put it on his lap, leaning against the back of the chair to work, and he could see the young man just by squinting slightly. The profile of his face was very happy, and his fingers were beating rapidly on the keyboard. There was only the sound of clicking keys and the narration in the video for a while in the room.

The two got along like this for a few days, and Xia Youning's one-week vacation passed like this.

This morning, Xia Youning was woken up by the ringtone of her mobile phone, a strange call.

"Hello? Who?" Sit up from the bed. He is a person who doesn't have the energy to get up. As long as he wakes up when he has a task, he can get up immediately even if it's cold outside. This makes people living in the same dormitory with him The roommates admired him very much.

"Xia Youning, I have your courier, come to the village to pick it up." After speaking, he hung up the phone.I looked at the time, it was almost 10 o'clock.

Xia Youning got up and saw that there was no one at home today, so she remembered that Mom and Dad went to see the situation in the field. If the rice can be harvested, I plan to harvest it while he is still there. Grandma went to the vegetable garden to water the vegetables Yes, Grandpa went to drink and chat with old friends.After washing up, he took his ID card, picked up a few fruits, and drove out the door in a small electric donkey.

Coming to the intersection, today's Tan Yuhe is also waiting in the temple.

"Why are you here so early? Didn't you say last night that I would be late today?" Xia Youning arranged the fruits and handed one to Tan Yuhe.

"It's okay, I just arrived too."

"Will you accompany me to the entrance of the village to get something?"

"To the entrance of the village?" Tan Yuhe stopped biting the fruit, "I may not be able to go to the entrance of the village, so I'll wait for you here."

"Can't go? Why?" Xia Youning looked at Tan Yuhe, "Can't I worship the land god later?"

"..." Tan Yuhe continued to sip the fruit, "No."

"Okay then, you wait here for me, I'll be back soon." Xia Youning is not a person who likes to get entangled in a small matter or someone. If you want to talk about something, you can talk about it. If you don't want to talk about it, you can check it yourself.

Xia Youning rode a small electric donkey, sprinted to the entrance of the village, took out his ID card and received the courier.

"Hey, what did you buy? It's a box, but it's heavy." The courier uncle helped him put the courier away.

"Just some books."

"Wow, the young man is really eager to learn. He is a college student in the village. If only my brat could love reading as much as you do, I can worry less about it."

Xia Youning just smiled and said nothing, "Uncle, I'm leaving." After speaking, he rode a little electric donkey and left again.

Back at the Earth Temple, I heard someone talking, it was Tan Yuhe talking to someone else.

"Whose family do you belong to, child? Why are you staying in the earth temple?"

"I'm waiting for someone..."

"Who are you waiting for? Why haven't I seen you in the village? How old are you?"

"Yuhe, we should go." Xia Youning interrupted their conversation. Tan Yuhe was talking to a woman who was cleaning the new temple. Seeing the helplessness on his face when he was asked by the woman, he made a noise.

"Isn't this Grandma Xia's grandson? What are you doing here?"

"Auntie, I'm here to pick up my friend." Xia Youning pulled Yuhe over. Although she didn't remember the woman in front of her, she was definitely called Auntie.

"Oh, this kid is your friend. He came back from outside with you? Then I won't bother you. Next time, don't come to the Temple of Earth. It's too dangerous here."

"Understood." Pulling Tan Yuhe out of the path, he didn't say a word on the way.

Xia Youning drove him home and moved the courier to the room. It was really heavy.

"What's in the box?" Tan Yuhe handed over a piece of paper to wipe Xia Youning's sweat.

"Book." Xia Youning took out a knife and scratched open the box. "Open it and have a look."

Tan Yuhe opened the box and saw that there were books in it, some were about historical records and some were about pharmacology, then he looked up at Xia Youning, beckoning him to explain.

"These are all second-hand books. Some of the books on traditional Chinese medicine are really old. They are all in traditional characters. I don't know if you can understand them. They are also discounted in the store. These books are not expensive. You If you don’t want it, then let me lend it to you.”

"Well, I'll borrow it." Tan Yuhe took out the books and laid them out on the table one by one, including "Huangdi Neijing", "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Shen Nong's Herbal Classic", etc., as well as some Chinese medicine textbooks, and some history books.In the following time, Tan Yuhe was immersed in the book, and even his family members praised him, saying that he was hardworking and studious, and Grandma Xia made supper for him every night.

The holiday is coming to an end in the blink of an eye, today is the last day of the holiday, and Xia Youning will report to the company tomorrow.

Today when he woke up, he went to the Earth Temple to find Tan Yuhe with his things as usual.

Tan Yuhe saw that he brought more things than usual today. In addition to fruit snacks, there were also candies, biscuits, white wine, incense, candles, paper money, firecrackers, meat, rice, etc. These were all the things that villagers brought to worship God during the festival. "Why did you bring so many things here today? Are you going to the Longtang Temple to worship God?"

"No, I'm here to worship the land god." Xia Youning swept the dust off the altar and put the things on it one by one, "Tomorrow, I'm leaving, and my vacation is coming to an end."

"..." Tan Yuhe watched quietly as he lit candles and incense, put on a small wine glass, filled it with wine, closed his eyes and bent down towards the clay statue, got up, and bent down again.Candles were lit again in the temple that had been silent for several years, and the smell of incense came out. "Then, are you coming back?"

"Maybe you won't be back until the Chinese New Year next year. Will you come back then?" Xia Youning squatted on the ground and unfolded the paper money in the brazier under the altar.

"Maybe... maybe not..." Tan Yuhe clasped his fists with both hands and placed them by his side, closing his eyes.

"Why?" Xia Youning took out the lighter, lit the paper money spread out, and fiddled with a wooden stick in the basin bit by bit to make the paper money burn better.

"Because...because..." Tan Yuhe couldn't answer, how could he explain it.

"Yuhe, I have a question." Xia Youning watched the fire in the brazier gradually go out, stood up and looked at Tan Yuhe, "Are you the land god here?"

Tan Yuhe gently loosened his fists, and turned his gaze from the bamboo forest to Xia Youning's face, and the two of them met.Xia Youning was expressionless, with a trace of uncertainty in his eyes.Tan Yuhe looked at it and suddenly burst out laughing, ending their staring at each other.

Slowly, Xia Youning watched the costume of the person in front of him change.Tan Yuhe's hair gradually grew longer, hanging down his waist. He was wearing a worn-out red gown with white shirt and underpants inside, the same pair of cloth shoes on his feet, and an orange in his hand.

"Why, are you scared?" Tan Yuhe peeled off the orange in his hand, and looked at Xia Youning with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"I'm a designer, and I have a big brain. I dare to guess that you are a fairy, but I was a little surprised when I saw it with my own eyes." Xia Youning tried his best to calm down his excited mood, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and then looked at the differently dressed Talk about Yuhe. "Yuhe, you look good too."

"Thank you."

The two were speechless for a moment.

"You, when are you leaving tomorrow?" Tan Yuhe spoke first.

"I have to leave early tomorrow, and my dad will drive me to the town."

"Then, let's see you next time."

"Can we meet again next time?" Xia Youning excitedly turned around to face Tan Yuhe.

"Oh...it can't, this temple will be demolished, and I will disappear by then."

"Where are you going?"

"It's not going anywhere, it's disappearing. The belief of the villagers made me appear in this world. Now that the villagers believe in other gods, I will lose my power. The earth temple will also be demolished, and then I will disappear, just like It's like I've never been in this world, and people don't know that there used to be such a land god here."

"I know that others don't know! Is there any way to keep you from disappearing?" Xia Youning took a step closer to Tan Yuhe, and Tan Yuhe took a step back. on the wall.

"I don't know, I don't have the power. Before you came, I had been moving in the bamboo forest, and I couldn't even get out of the trail. With your worship, my range of activities has become a little wider."

"So you couldn't go to my house before, just like you can't go to the entrance of the village now?"

"Then what if I tell people in the village not to demolish this temple? What if I tell them all to come here to offer incense? Will you still disappear?"

"My disappearance is only a matter of time. Even if you don't demolish the temple and let people come to offer incense, but I live by faith, and few people here really want to believe in me."

"Then, then I believe it, I believe it!"

"You are a human being, and one's faith is too small."

"There should be another way, there must be a way!" Xia Youning took Tan Yuhe's hand, sat in front of the temple, and looked at the bamboo forest in front of him.
