Chapter 32 Acquaintances in the Desolate Temple in Rainy Days
"The road of life is like a dream.
The road was windy and frosty, and the wind and frost hit the face dry.
In the world of mortals, how many directions do dreams have.”
This can be said to be Ji Que's first long trip.
Dressed as a scholar, he rode on a yellow puma, looking at the vast grass and wild forest beside the road, he couldn't help humming this song.
The sky is gloomy, far away from the county seat, and the eyes are full of desolation.
Both sides of the road are either lush and lush trees, or weeds half the height of a person. From time to time, there are some weird statues standing on the side of the road, and there are some burnt incense candles in front of them.
Such a picture always gives Ji Que the illusion that he has entered the world of "Ghost in the Rain".
From Sangshui County to Tianren City, let alone a distance of thousands of miles, but Ji Que reckoned that he had traveled less than 40 miles before something happened.
Huang Puma originally ran well on the road, but as Ji Que became more proficient at riding, he just felt like he was one with horse.
Suddenly, the yellow horse stepped into a hidden mud pit. If it wasn't for his good skills, he might have fallen off the horse like a dog eating shit.
The most depressing thing is that the horse's leg was still sprained, and after coming out of the pit, it limped.
"No way, so unlucky?" Ji Que couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Sure enough, once he left the area of Sangshui County, bad luck struck again.
But bad luck is bad luck, seeing the comprehension bar that has not moved for a long time suddenly moved, it gave him some comfort.
He bought this horse for eighty taels of silver. Seeing how it was limping, Ji Que couldn't help feeling sorry for the silver.
If this leg is really useless, even if it is sold again, it may not be worth the price.
So, after a burst of horse crowing, a scholar walking with a horse on his back appeared on the road.
The yellow puma was carried on the body, with a look of fear and anxiety on the horse's face.
It has lived for more than ten years, and it has never been ridden by others. It has never been treated like this.
The true energy in his body circulates, and it is not a problem for Ji Que to carry a horse for walking, but this thing is just like the schoolbag when he was studying in the last life, it is a burden after all, so he couldn't help complaining: "I originally bought you to save trouble and effort, but I didn't expect to buy you." Got an ancestor."
Walking, there was a clicking sound, Ji Que paused, and suddenly found himself stepping on shit.
Still stepping on horse shit!
So a beautiful picture of a scholar carrying a horse scraping horse dung by the side of the road appeared on the road.
Ji Que was walking on the road with his horse on his back, looking at the thicker lead clouds in the sky, he couldn't help saying, "It looks like it's going to rain."
As soon as he finished speaking, a raindrop hit his forehead.
Ji Que couldn't help being even more surprised, and said: "The rain comes as soon as it is said, but fortunately, the rain in this season can't be too heavy."
As a result, after a dozen or so breaths, the torrential rain fell.
"Fuck!"
Ji Que was covered in rain all of a sudden, and couldn't help complaining.
The showers in autumn are really painful.
Ji Que and the horse were soon soaked through, and the ground became extremely muddy.
It’s okay that the rain is normal rain, but it happens to be freezing rain.
He can withstand it with the body shield of true qi, but this horse may not be able to bear it.
I really bought an ancestor.
Ji Que let out a breath of white air, and couldn't help speeding up his pace.
There are a lot of shrubs on both sides of the road ahead, which look like swaying ghosts in the rain.
At this time, Ji Que's eyes suddenly lit up.
During the torrential rain, a sloping ramp led to a high place, and at the end of the ramp, there was a faint silhouette of a building.
Finally found a place to shelter from the rain.
Ji Que carried the horse all the way up, and found that there was a temple on the slope, which seemed to be deserted.
The red walls are mottled and covered with green moss, which looks like a skin patient's face in the rain.
Seeing that the yellow horse was already trembling, Ji Que didn't think much, and carried the horse directly into the temple.
As soon as he entered the temple, he saw a cluster of flames. It should be that someone lit a fire inside to keep warm.
The rain is too cold.
Ji Que came to the dilapidated eaves and put the horse down.
The yellow horse shook its body, shaking off countless rainwater.
Ji Que led the limping animal to the place where the fire was lit.
He didn't want to disturb others, but the temple has been in disrepair for a long time and has been seriously damaged. Only the two rooms are well preserved.
Ji Que had just approached the place where the main hall should be, when he saw a man and a woman sitting beside a bonfire, and two coffins beside it.
At this time, the man and woman also looked at him.
As a scholar, he has always been very polite, and said: "It's raining suddenly, and I want to take a shelter from the rain, is it convenient for me?"
At this time, the man by the bonfire stood up and asked doubtfully, "Ji Que, is that you?"
Ji Que didn't expect that someone in this ruined temple in the barren mountains would know his name, so he couldn't help getting closer.
"Li Sankai?" Ji Que looked at the face beside the campfire and asked in doubt.
"It's really you." Li San said with a smile.
Li Sankai used to be Ji Que's classmate, if Tang Yi and him are crouching dragons and phoenixes, this Li Sankai is the third person.
However, he should be quite self-aware. After studying for a year and a half, he realized that it was not material for studying, so he resolutely went home and inherited the coffin shop at home, unlike Ji Que and Tang Yi.
Li Sankai's coffin shop is very famous. It is said that it is a century-old shop. When Sangshui County was still a town, his coffin shop was there.
The barren mountains and wild mountains met acquaintances, I have to say it was fate.
Li Sankai didn't know what happened to Ji Que's special misfortune later, and he was close to him, so he hurriedly called him to warm up.
Ji Que was not polite, and just sat down.
Except for studying and taking exams, Ji Que has always been very self-aware.
He concluded that although he was very unlucky, he was not a lone star in the traditional sense.
Whether it is stepping on shit, encountering a kitchen knife or a brick that suddenly flies, or encountering a tiger encountered on an outing, basically they hit him with precision and rarely hurt others.
When he was accumulating savvy, it seemed that there was a magnetic field around him that would attract bad luck. As long as he walked anywhere, it would attract bad luck there.
Using what Xue Tutou said before, accidents happen wherever he goes.
This reminded him of a certain elementary school student in a certain anime in his previous life.
It's just that elementary school students are making others unlucky, while Ji Que is himself.
In short, he won't hurt others easily, and he will bear all the pain, which is why Ji Que dares to rest assured and get close to Tang Yi.
He felt that those classmates shunned him, obviously making a fuss out of a molehill.
He's not that scary, really.
When I met a tiger while outing, the tiger still just stared at him and chased him alone, without looking at other people.
It's a pity, except for Tang Yi, other students have prejudice against him.
After the horses were settled, Ji Que sat by the campfire and quickly communicated with Li Sankai.
It turns out that the Li family's coffins are well-known for their exquisite workmanship, exquisite workmanship and material selection, so that many wealthy families from other towns come here to order coffins.
No, a rich old woman in Liuhuai City was dying of illness, and the doctor made it clear that she would not live for half a year.
The old woman was still conscious, thinking that she was about to die, so she confessed to her children that she must order her a nanmu coffin from the Li family in Sangshui County. .
So after the coffin was ready, Li Sankai and his younger sister Li Mei came out to deliver the goods. Who would have thought that there would be a sudden freezing rain, and those who could not go to the village or shop could only run to this temple to avoid the rain.
"I didn't expect you and I to be so destined to meet this." Li San said with a smile.
Beside, Li Sankai's younger sister, Li Mei, saw Ji Que's handsome appearance, she was quite proud when she used to walk outside, she felt a little embarrassed.
After chatting for a while, Ji Que couldn't help observing the surrounding environment.
This room is not too small, it should be the main hall of a temple, and there is a dilapidated Avalokitesvara statue standing on the altar.
The facial features of the Avalokitesvara statue are very blurred, with some cobwebs stuck to it. In this weather, it does not have any sense of solemnity, and it looks ghostly.
The temple has a front yard and a back yard.
There is a pond in the backyard. The water in the pond is turbid, with broken duckweed floating.
The lying pine tree in the middle of the pond has long since died, like an old corpse, and some red cloth strips hung on it by pilgrims when they worshiped and made a wish can be vaguely seen on it.
Desolate temple in rainy days, such an environment is really a bit like "A Chinese Ghost Story".
When Ji Que went to see the Guanyin statue again, he felt even more weird.
The shoulders of this Avalokitesvara statue are too broad. When compared, the head and lower body appear small and deformed.
The mud tire itself is quite rough, and there are no traces of paint, as if it was placed here before it was finished.
In short, if you look at it a few more times, you will feel uncomfortable.
At this time, Ji Que frowned and looked outside.
In the rain, some dark shadows appeared at the gate of the deserted temple.
Another person?
