Ji Xixi: "Hey, what brought Miss Gu Er here? I don't need to report to you what we are doing now."
"Humph, I just passed by by chance and saw you sneaking around here. I had to come over and take a look. If you are doing bad things, I will eliminate them for the people."
"Oh, let's put it this way, Miss Gu Er is still a good person."
"You!" Gu Xueran snorted coldly and tilted her head arrogantly, "I won't argue with you, you just want to anger me, and I won't be fooled."
"You're not stupid yet."
"Ji Xixi, you're almost done."
"Okay, okay." Shu Xiaoluo said, "It's so noisy that my ears hurt. You guys should take a break."
"Huh, Xiaoluo, let's ignore her. Let's go up the mountain first." Ji Xixi turned around and took her arm, and was about to leave.
Shu Xiaoluo glanced at Gu Xueran, turned around and walked away without saying anything.
This is the Cangyue Mountain Scenic Area. You need to climb up, which takes at least an hour.
Gu Xueran stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the high mountain with a puzzled look on her face, "They are here to climb the mountain today. What can be on such a high mountain?"
Seeing the two of them checking in and preparing to climb the mountain, Gu Xueran quickly ran over.
"Xiaoluo, that person named Gu is following us again. She doesn't really want to follow us."
"This is a scenic spot. We can't stop her from coming whenever she wants."
"I hope she's not here to cause trouble for us."
The road up the mountain is not smooth. In some places, you need to hold on to the fence to climb up slowly. If you are not careful, you may fall.
It's not the peak tourist season now, so there are still very few people going up the mountain, and only twos and threes pass by along the way.
Although the sun is not strong, the weather is very hot.
Shu Xiaoluo and Ji Xixi climbed halfway up the mountain, then sat next to a stone to rest.
"Xiaoluo, here's some water for you." Ji Xixi took out a bottle of water from her bag and handed it to her.
"Thanks."
Shu Xiaoluo looked at Gu Xueran, who was coming up panting from behind, and said jokingly, "Isn't Miss Gu Er a taekwondo champion? Why is her physical strength so poor that she is so tired after just climbing a little?"
Gu Xueran was sweating profusely and leaned on a big tree to catch her breath, "I am good at boxing, but climbing mountains is not my strong point."
"Xixi, let's go. Miss Gu, just crawl slowly." Shu Xiaoluo pursed her lips and smiled, got up and walked away.
"Hey!" Seeing the two of them starting to climb up again, Gu Xueran looked hopeless. She hadn't rested enough yet.
Ji Xixi turned around and smiled at her, "Miss Gu Er, just rest here by yourself. If that doesn't work, go down the mountain quickly. There's still a long way up there."
"What a joke, how could I be worse than you?"
It took nearly an hour for Shu Xiaoluo and Ji Xixi to reach the top.
There is an ancient temple on the top of the mountain. It is small and has a big lion standing at the door.
The temple is very simple, but there are so many people coming to burn incense and worship the gods that the threshold is almost broken.
Shu Xiaoluo and Ji Xixi went to the temple, burned incense and worshiped the gods themselves, and made devout wishes in front of the statues.
"Ouch, I'm so exhausted."
Gu Xueran came up panting and saw that there was nothing on it except a dilapidated temple.
"What are they doing?"
She walked in and saw them burning incense.
"Let's go." Shu Xiaoluo turned around and walked out with Ji Xixi.
"Hey, what were you doing just now?"
"We don't call him hello, we have names." Ji Xixi said displeased.
"Even if I call you by your name, you won't respond to me."
Shu Xiaoluo ignored her, but said something to Ji Xixi who was standing aside, then turned around and walked to the pavilion nearby.
Sitting in the pavilion was a master who was over a hundred years old. The master was dressed simply and had a long beard. He was chanting Buddha beads with beads.
"Grandmaster."
The master opened his eyes, smiled happily when he saw her, and quickly motioned for her to sit down.
"How are you doing lately?"
"Very good, little girl, you are here again."
Gu Xueran stood outside and watched, wondering, "Does she know this old man? Why did she go over to chat?"
Ji Xixi leaned to the side and gnawed on the bread, and said angrily, "Why do you care so much? Miss Gu Er, are you here to follow us?"
"Why should I follow you? Who do you think you are?"
"That's not the best. Then go ahead and do whatever you need to do now. Don't hang around in front of us all the time."
After Ji Xixi finished eating the bread, she took out an orange from her bag and ate it.
Gu Xueran touched her belly and found that she was indeed hungry.
Ji Xixi saw her staring at the fruit in her hand and immediately covered the bag tightly, "I won't give you anything to eat."
"I won't eat it." Gu Xueran snorted, folding her arms across her chest and leaning on the big pillar nearby.
She looked at the temple in front of her and saw several families walking in, burning incense and worshiping the gods devoutly.
For Gu Xueran, who comes from a wealthy family, this kind of thing does not exist in their lives, so they have never believed in it.
She also saw some people kowtow from the door of the temple to the inside, repeating this process three times in total.
"Ji Xixi."
"Huh?" Ji Xixi was playing with her mobile phone and responded casually.
"Tell me what's so magical about this place and why so many people come here."
"Don't you understand this? This is faith, and it's very spiritual here."
"How to say?"
"I didn't know this place before, but then Xiaoluo brought me here. She comes here every six months, so I followed."
Gu Xueran turned her head and glanced at Shu Xiaoluo, who was sitting inside chatting with the master, and asked doubtfully, "Is there really something magical about this place?"
"Xiaoluo was left in the wild once by her family when she was a child. At that time, this place had not yet become a scenic spot. She climbed up here on her own two roads and met the host master here."
That is the master who is chatting with Shu Xiaoluo now.
At that time, she was only eight years old and was alone. Thanks to the kindness of the master, she was able to survive.
Later, she would come here every day to burn incense. The master said that she had a good life and would become a rich and noble person in the future.
Therefore, she formed a fate with this temple.
"It's just a temple. Is it really that believable?" After hearing this story, Gu Xueran had some doubts about it.
"When you face a desperate situation and still survive, you develop feelings for this place. But I tell you, you don't understand. You are a young lady who has no worries about food and clothing, so you cannot empathize with it."
"What are you talking about?" Shu Xiaoluo came over.
Gu Xueran: "I'm telling your story, I don't know if it's true or not."
