Chapter 26: The Ancient Temple
Sun Yueping only stayed in her hometown for one day and returned to Qingning County, Ji Wei stayed, she was very familiar with the mountains in her hometown, and now she is like a fish in water, as long as she tells her grandmother when she goes out, basically no one cares where she goes.
So on the third day in her hometown, she packed her small luggage and reported to her grandmother and grandfather that she was going to live in the temple on Cang'er Mountain for a few days.
Cang'er Mountain is very large, located in the southern hilly area, surrounded by mountains, the scenery is very beautiful, but the ruggedness is too difficult to develop, so there is still no reasonable planning until a few decades later.
However, there is an ancient temple on one of the peaks in the mountain, which still exists and has been repaired, and the temple is not only inhabited by old monks, but also old Taoist priests.
The mountain people in Cang'er Mountain are very in awe of the people in the ancient temple, and because of the customs handed down by their ancestors, there will be people who come up to the mountain to burn incense every time they celebrate the New Year.
Ji Wei also went to the ancient temple when she was a child, she remembered that she was sick at the beginning, the medical conditions in the mountains were not good, there was only one health center recently, there were only some commonly used cold medicines or something, Ji Wei was stung by a poisonous wasp at that time, her arm was swollen, and she also had a high fever, the old doctor of the health center had no choice, and after seeing the situation, he pointed to the road of the ancient temple.
This memory was later forgotten by Ji Wei, and she only vaguely remembered that there was an ancient temple in the mountains of her hometown, and there were many powerful grandfathers living in it.
Now that she was reborn, looking back, Ji Wei knew that the ancient temple must be extraordinary, and the old Dong mentioned at her aunt's house earlier was also a frequent visitor to the ancient temple.
The road to the ancient temple is not close, but the road in the mountains is not close, some children in the mountains in order to go to the primary school of the village team to study, get up before dawn every day, and go out of two or three miles to go to class are accustomed to it.
Ji Wei seems quiet and introverted in the county, but when she was in her hometown, she was no different from Shanliwa, and often disappeared as soon as she went out.
Grandma and grandfather knew that Ji Wei was going to the ancient temple and did not object, they were busy with work in the fields on weekdays, and they didn't have much time to take care of Ji Wei.
Ji Wei said that she was going to spend a few days in the ancient temple, and her grandmother asked the people next door or so who wanted to go up the mountain to go to the ancient temple to say hello.
After everything was ready, Ji Wei set off for the ancient temple with all her baggage, went out at seven o'clock in the morning, and walked four or five miles of mountain roads to the foot of the ancient temple.
At this time, the sun had risen overhead, Ji Wei stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up, and a group of grass and mud horses passed by happily in her heart.
An endless stone staircase winds its way up, like a centipede with too many legs to count.
Ji Wei raised her head and looked confused, why didn't she find out that she was so cheating on the mountain in her previous life?
Oh...... In her previous life, she was ill and delirious, and she was carried by her grandfather.
Sure enough, it was impossible to do anything easily, first of all, she had to work hard.
Ji Wei stood at the foot of the mountain for a while, took a few deep breaths, and then began to climb the stairs to the top of the mountain.
From the afternoon of the sunshine to the westward slope of sunset, Ji Wei finally climbed to the top of the mountain, stepped on the last stone step, she could no longer stand, and lay on a big rock on the edge of the top of the mountain with a snap and gasped.
Ji Wei's heart was broken at this time, her head was in chaos, and she even chose to forget about what she came up to do for the time being, she just wanted to take a good rest and pant evenly!
The top of the mountain is manicured, and trees are planted on the edge of the cliff to prevent anyone from stumbling.
When Ji Wei went up the mountain, she also saw that several acres of terraced fields had been opened in the mountains, and it seemed that the mountains were all self-sufficient.
Ji Wei panted and looked around, and the ancient temple with a rather simple atmosphere came into view......
