Chapter 057: Broken Appointment

After Luo Li came to Hangzhou, the first time he asked people about Niangniang Temple.

After she asked about the location of the Niangniang Temple, she didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately went straight to the Niangniang Temple.

When she found the Niangniang Temple, it was close to the westward setting of the sun. Luo Li took a turn in the Niangniang Temple, and found that the Niangniang Temple is a place for the people of Hangzhou to pray for the continuation of their children, although there are still believers in the temple who are burning incense and praying, but only a few people remain. And among those few people, Luo Li did not find any trace of Dugu and Guoguo.

Luo Li took another turn in the temple, and when she returned to the main hall, the few remaining believers in the temple had also left.

Luo Li looked in the direction of the temple gate, and for a long time he didn't see others coming in or out, and his slender eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and after a while, he stretched out again.

Seeing that the sun is setting as it is approaching, night is approaching. "Maybe I'm late today, they must have already left, and they'll come early tomorrow." ”

So, Luo Li glanced back at the gentle smile in the middle of the main hall, bowed to him, and flew away from the main entrance of the Niangniang Temple.

On the second day, the genius was just dawning, and Luo Li hurried to the Niangniang Temple, when the temple door was not opened.

On the left side of the gate of Niangniang Temple is a stone carved boy, and on the right is a stone carved virgin.

Luo Li stood on the side of the stone virgin, looking at the closed temple door, and thought, "I came early this morning, the temple door has not yet opened, if Dugu and Guoguo come before the door is closed, they will be able to see them." ”

So, Luo Li made up his mind and waited for their appearance in the temple today.

However, she waited from the dawn of the sky to the willow tops on the moon, and she didn't see Dugu and Guoguo, who had agreed to meet her here.

Luo Li waited twice and didn't see anyone, for fear that he would miss the moment to meet, so he simply stayed under an ancient tree outside the temple gate.

She squatted under the ancient tree outside the temple gate for several days, looking at all kinds of people entering and leaving the Niangniang Temple, but she never saw anyone who looked like Dugu or Guoguo.

On the sixth day, Luoli began to feel uneasy, wondering if something had happened to them, whether they were badly injured and unable to move, or if they were trapped in a place she didn't know and couldn't come......

Luo Li's appearance is outstanding, and his fairy appearance is not good, even if he is standing in the crowd of 10,000 people, he is also outstanding, shining, and difficult to cover. What's more, standing alone under the ancient tree outside the temple gate for six days has already attracted the attention of countless believers who come to burn incense and ask for children.

Soon, some people exaggerated the matter and publicized it in Hangzhou.

Many people speak, and many preach.

Various versions of the story are derived, but I'm afraid that I don't know that I am the protagonist of the story discussed on the street after listening to it.

Sometimes, we have to admit that the power of public opinion is powerful. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many gossips, it would take a moment to get away from the year of the monkey.

The fairy-like beauty waits alone under the ancient tree outside the Niangniang Temple, whether it is wind and rain, sun or rain, the beauty is always immovable...... I don't know whose lady it is, is she here to ask for a son, is she here to see the negative person......

This story reached the ears of Miaozhu, and he didn't care that his illness had not yet recovered, so he hurriedly dressed himself, turned out a painting scroll from his home, and left the house.

When Miao Zhu came to Niangniang Temple out of breath, he saw a fairy beauty under the rumored ancient tree, he tightly held the painting scroll in his arms, and walked away tremblingly.

Luo Li had been looking for Dugu and Guoguo's figures, and she didn't notice that an old man with gray hair was approaching her.

Miao Zhu stood a foot away from Luoli, nervously opened the painting scroll, glanced at the woman in the painting, and then looked at the Luoli under the ancient tree, and confirmed it many times before he dared to speak, "Girl, you are here......"

Hearing this, he was taken aback, only to see the temple not far away, and saw that he was excited, and said strange things to her, thinking that the old man recognized the wrong person.

"Elder, do you recognize me?"

Miaozhu nodded, slowly walked to Luoli, and handed the painting scroll in his hand to Luoli.

Puzzled, she took the scroll and opened it to take a look, only to find that the person in the painting was herself, "Elder, how can you have my portrait?"

Miao Zhu licked his dry lips, "Girl, I am the temple of this Niangniang Temple, if it weren't for the lingering sickness these days, the girl wouldn't have to wait here for many days." ”

Miao Zhu knew that Luo Li must be confused in his heart, so he continued to explain to her, "Many years ago, a young and handsome son came to the temple, a beautiful and generous young lady, at first I thought they were a young couple, and the newlywed Yan'er came here to ask for a son and a mother. Later, I found out that they only wandered around the temple every day, and did not have the intention of burning incense and begging for children. After more than half a month, I got to know them and knew that they were waiting for people here. ”

When he heard this, he knew that the son and young lady in the mouth of Miao Zhu must be lonely and fruitful.

"Many years ago?" Luo Li suddenly realized, blaming himself for forgetting that the calculation time of the heavenly realm and the mortal world is different, one day in the sky, and one year on earth.

"Have they been waiting here for years?" Luo Li felt both self-reproach and sadness when he asked this sentence.

Miaozhu shook his head, "They waited for about a month, and they didn't come again." ”

"Elder, do you know where they went?"

Miao Zhu still shook his head, "At first, the two of them went in and out together, but in the next few days, only that prince came alone, and he didn't see the young lady who was with him before. One day, as I was about to greet him with the lady well, he gave me a scroll with the appearance of a girl, and gave me some silver to spend my days, and told me that if I saw the woman in the painting one day, I would give the scroll to the person in the painting. ”

Luo Li listened to Miao Zhu's words, and the worry in his heart gradually became serious, and he wondered, "Did something happen to Guoguo, why did only Dugu come later?"

"In the past few years, my health has deteriorated, and I am afraid that I will not be able to hold on to the girl and live up to the trust of others. Now, the girl is here, the painting scroll has been submitted, and the cause entrusted by the son has been completed, even if he dies in the future, he will have no worries. Miao Zhu thought that the matter had been done, and immediately felt much more relaxed.

The temple wishes to keep its promises, so that the broken ones are both admired and ashamed. Looking at the temple Zhu who was not looking good and described as withered, Luo Li almost wanted to cross some of his spiritual power and increase his lifespan, thinking that the immortals would change the number of mortal lives without authorization, and they would suffer more from reincarnation, so they had to give up.

In the end, all Luo Li could give to the temple was two simple words, "Thank you!"

Miao Zhu, after all, is a kind old man, he accepted the thank you of Luoli, and told her, "Entrusted by others, the matter of loyalty, the girl does not have to take it to heart." ”
