Chapter six hundred and seventy second: hungry after spending
Many people come to the Dragon King Temple to offer incense.
But without exception, they all pray for good weather, and of course occasionally add some small wishes, mostly for peace.
People here have a unique respect for temples. Even children know that the Dragon King in the Dragon King Temple only cares about good weather.
Ruyi sat on the tuanpu and knelt down before inserting the incense candles into the big cauldron. There were countless incense candles in it.
Balls of incense emerged from the roof tiles of the Dragon King Temple, carrying the incense and faith away.
Ruyi bowed three times, then looked at Mr. Chen aside and asked, "Uncle Chen, don't you bow?"
Chen Changsheng turned around, shook his head and said: "As far as Chen is concerned, sincerity is all that matters. It is better to forget about offering incense and bowing."
"Uncle Chen doesn't believe this?"
"No."
Chen Changsheng said: "It's just that Chen can't do it."
Ruyi didn't understand it either, so he didn't ask any more questions.
She then looked at the civet cat next to her and said, "Civet cat might as well pay homage. Grandpa Dragon King will bless the civet cat."
Li Hua shook her head and said: "Li Hua doesn't want to worship, Li Hua is also a monster. Monsters don't want to worship monsters, it won't work."
Ruyi said: "Isn't Grandpa Dragon King a god?"
Lihua didn't know how to explain it, so she looked at Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng said: "The gods in the temple can also be monsters. The Dragon Lord is a real dragon, which brings good weather and good weather. He is actually a water god, but in fact he is also a monster himself."
"Is that so..."
After hearing this, Ruyi blinked and asked: "So, has Uncle Chen seen a real dragon? Or has he seen a dragon king?"
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "Not only have I seen it, but I also recognize it."
"Oh."
Ruyi said: "Uncle Chen is telling lies."
Chen Changsheng smiled warmly, looked at the Dragon Lord statue, and said, "We have known each other for a few years, and last time I asked Chen to go to his place for a drink."
"If you don't believe it."
Ruyi didn't believe it no matter what she said this time.
She felt that there was no real dragon in the world, it was just what the world said, so how could it really exist.
If not, there are so many people in the world, how could it be possible that no one has seen a real dragon?
Chen Changsheng didn't explain either, he just looked at the immortal quietly.
Obviously Long Jun did not come.
At first, he just dropped by the temple fair to take a look, but now the incense matters have been left to the Dragon Girl, but he himself seems to have no idea what to do.
Ruyi left the tuanfu with her knees and asked: "Uncle Chen."
"Um?"
“Does offering incense and worshiping really have a spiritual effect?”
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said: "If there is nothing else, I think it will work."
"Something else?"
"Yeah." Chen Changsheng said, "Because whether it rains or not is not entirely up to you, Grandpa Dragon King."
Ruyi asked: "Is that what God has the final say?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said: "This is not necessarily the case. There was once a monk who went against the will of heaven and prevented a single drop of rain from falling for several months."
Ruyi said in a daze: "The monk...is he so powerful..."
She paused for a moment, then suddenly reacted and said, "No, Uncle Chen wouldn't be talking about Qingshan City, right?"
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Let's go."
After saying that, he walked towards the outside of the temple.
Ruyi took two steps forward, then remembered Li Hua and went back to hug her.
"Is this Qingshan City, Uncle Chen?"
“Isn’t the severe drought that year an accident?”
"Uncle Chen?"
No matter how Ren Ruyi asked, Chen Changsheng never mentioned a word in the end.
It's getting late, and the temple fair is about to end.
One after another, people have taken over the stalls.
The civet cat stood on Ruyi's shoulder, looking around, thinking it was no longer as lively as before.
But when he turned his head, he was attracted by something again.
It sniffed and looked in a certain direction.
If he noticed that Ci Hua was a little abnormal, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Dried fish." Li Hua said.
Chen Changsheng paused slightly when he heard this, looked around, and saw a girl in red in front of a stall that was being closed.
This is how you can attract raccoons.
Probably only Yuhongjin.
Ruyi also saw it and reacted at this time: "Isn't that Hongjin? Uncle Chen, do you still remember? She is the sister from Sister Yun's family."
She paused and then said that she had rarely seen Yu Hongjin since she took over the embroidery workshop.
But sometimes it happens.
There was always a question in her mind.
That's why Yu Hongjin hasn't grown at all over the years and has always been like a child.
Before, she thought Yu Hongjin might have dwarfism, but after seeing something with Uncle Chen these past two days, she felt something was wrong.
Maybe it's not dwarfism at all.
When the civet flower saw that it was fish red brocade, it lost interest for a while. It sighed and said: "Can't eat it..."
Ruyi blinked and said somewhat puzzled: "What?"
"Friends of good friend Chen, you can't eat civet flowers."
"eat?"
Ruyi was stunned and asked: "What to eat?"
She followed Li Hua's gaze and saw that it was Yu Hongjin.
"Eat, eat Hongjin?!" Ruyi exclaimed.
Lihua nodded and said, "It should be delicious."
Ruyi's lips opened slightly, she came back to her senses, then looked at Uncle Chen and asked: "Uncle Chen, Hongjin is..."
Chen Changsheng nodded and said: "It's a red fish in disguise, and it's also a demon."
Ruyi was particularly calm this time.
It only took a moment to react.
"As expected..."
She said how could someone remain unchanged for more than ten years?
No wonder the civet flower wants to eat the red brocade.
"What about Sister Yun?" Ruyi asked.
"Miss Yun is a human being."
"When I was young, I heard that Uncle Chen and Sister Yun had known each other a long time ago."
Chen Changsheng paused for a moment, not knowing why Ruyi suddenly asked this question, so he answered: "We have known each other for a long time. When we were traveling, Chen lived in Tang Mansion for a few days and we got to know each other."
Ruyi had always wanted to ask, so he followed the words and asked.
"I heard Sister Yun say before that she came from Yan County, which is far away from Qingshan City. It's a coincidence that Uncle Chen came a few years ago and Sister Yun came here a few years later, and they happened to live across the street...
…”
Ruyi looked at Uncle Chen, as if she wanted to see something from it.
Chen Changsheng reached out his hand and hit her on the head.
"Ouch……"
Ruyi covered her head and said, "Why did Uncle Chen knock me?"
Chen Changsheng said calmly: "Chen, don't you know what you are thinking? Children should not inquire about adults' affairs."
"Uncle Chen is unreasonable."
"No way."
"There is."
Ruyi pursed her lips and snorted softly.
Then she asked again: "Then when did Uncle Chen meet Sister Yun? You can always ask that."
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "It's been a few years since we met Da Jing before we were still here."
"How old was Sister Yun at that time?"
"Um……"
Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "She is sixteen or seventeen years old and still a little girl."
