Ancient kings have always admired most religious beliefs, because they wanted to use the idea of divine power to imprison the hearts of the people.

Therefore, even a small and remote county like Manyi County has a temple with constant incense.

The temple is located in the north of the county seat, which is exactly opposite to the village in the south, so the two need to go through the county seat and get to the temple from the north gate.

Fortunately, it was still early today, and the two of them didn't prepare anything, and after arriving at the county seat in an ox cart, they rushed to the location of the temple hand in hand.

After walking for half an hour from the north gate, the two of them walked to the foot of the mountain where the temple was located.

"It's so far!"

silently complained in his heart, where did Ye Hao walk such a long way in his previous life, there are means of transportation in modern times, but in ancient times, except for the extremely slow ox cart, there was only a carriage.

But the ancient people paid attention to worshiping Buddha with sincerity, so even if it was a large family, the ladies and ladies who wanted to come to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha got out of the car and climbed the mountain in person.

Out of the corner of her eye, glancing at the somewhat cold atmosphere around her, Ye Hao asked Aunt Huang curiously:

"Aunt Huang, isn't there just such a temple in our city? Why doesn't it seem that the incense is very good, and no one comes?"

The way up the mountain is a path that many people have walked through.

Although it is not like the beautiful stone staircase that has been repaired in modern times, the fresh and natural vegetation on both sides is also unique.

Hearing this, Aunt Huang sighed and replied with a sad expression:

"It's not a plague of insects! Although the disaster has been brought under control recently, many fields have been damaged before, so how can there be so much leisure to come and worship the Buddha?"

As soon as she said this, Ye Hao reacted, too.

Although he tried his best to spread the method of controlling the insect plague, the crops that had been eaten by the locusts could no longer return.

In ancient times, productivity was already very low, and one or two villages had no harvest, which was a big blow to the entire county.

It was also because she hadn't been in the city since she returned home from the lawsuit that day, so she didn't know that the price of food had risen a lot now.

Although it is not as terrible as a disaster year, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Now that life is so sad, how can the people have the leisure to worship God and Buddha?

Thinking like this, Ye Hao frowned, and suddenly realized that she seemed to have made a mistake.

If this is the case, then won't my trip be in vain?

Just as she was worried about this, there was a sudden noise of footsteps behind her.

"Let's get tired!"

As soon as the voice came out, a figure passed by the two of them, and the other party didn't even give them a look.

The light pink shadow faded away in front of the two, like a floating flower, rushing up the mountain at great speed.

"What's the matter with this man? Worshipping the Buddha is about sincerity, so if you are in such a hurry, don't disturb the Buddhas on the mountain!"

Seeing the man's hurried appearance, Aunt Huang had a dissatisfied expression on her face, and her words were full of criticism.

didn't care that she was too cautious about worshipping the Buddha, Ye Hao blinked her eyes, and she couldn't stop being excited.

She's right?

The girl who passed by just now seems to be one of the two maids beside Mrs. Wu?!

She didn't know if the other party saw herself, but she saw the other party's appearance clearly at the moment when the other party flashed past!

It seems that today is really not empty!

"Harm! Why bother with a little girl, let's be sincere."

After comforting Aunt Huang, Ye Hao pulled the other party and continued to walk up the mountain, but her pace was a little faster.

Jinquan Temple, located halfway up the mountain, is not very rich because it is located in a small county town in the middle of nowhere.

The architectural scope of the entire temple is not large, at least not as good as the ones Ye Hao had seen in his previous life, there are only three parts in total.

It is divided into the front gate, the main hall, and the main hall

and the backyard behind the temple for the monks' clothing, food, shelter and transportation.

Although it is not very luxurious, it has all the facilities that should be there, after all, it has been standing here for decades, enjoying the incense of a city.

"Amitabha, thank you two donors for coming."

As soon as Ye Hao and Aunt Huang entered the door, a young monk who didn't look very old led them into the main hall.

After the two of them knelt down to worship the Buddha statues in the main hall, they were pulled aside and drew lots to pray for blessings.

Ye Hao looked around the entire hall without a trace, and found that except for a few of herself, there was no trace of anyone else.

No, she obviously saw the maid running over here, and there are only woods on this mountain except for Jinquan Temple.

Glancing at Aunt Huang, who was chatting happily with the monks, she rolled her eyes and interjected:

"I have long heard that the incense of Jinquan Temple is prosperous, and its reputation is quite good, but it is a pity that it has been affected by the insect plague recently, alas!"

Hearing this, the monk folded his hands and whispered a sentence from Amitabha Buddha before he spoke:

"What this lady said is wrong, the city is plagued by insects, and the Buddhas are also moved, the less the incense, the less the incense, the health of the people is the wish of the gods and Buddhas."

Look at the pattern of others!

The young monk's words made Ye Hao sigh in his heart, such a mind is more worthy of being sought after than some modern small fresh meat or something.

No wonder Buddhism was so popular in ancient times, people have a pattern!

But her purpose today was not here, so she started talking and quoted the news she wanted.

"The little master is really noble! No wonder at this time, some people rush to worship the Buddha! Nevertheless, you should advise the girl to be careful on the road, for the mountain is steep so that she may not be injured."

mentioned this, Aunt Huang did not doubt him, and she was already a little angry in her heart, so she couldn't help but echo a few words.

"Yes! It doesn't matter if that girl walks in a hurry, but don't bump into the gods and Buddhas in the temple!"

As a serious believer in Buddhism, Aunt Huang saw some unreverence for gods and Buddhas, but she was particularly displeased.

Hearing the two say this, the monk was stunned for a moment, as if he did not understand what they were saying.

After thinking carefully for a moment, he spoke, and said with a blank face:

"The two ladies mean that someone rushed into the temple? But I haven't seen it. Except for the two of us in our temple today, only the county lady came with her maid and stayed all morning before leaving."

The monk's words made both of them stunned, especially Ye Hao, who was secretly thinking to herself in her heart.

Could it be that the maid recognized herself, so she didn't enter the temple?

Wrong! Mrs. County Order, isn't that Mrs. Wu's cousin? That is, the original owner of the maid!

Ye Hao, who suddenly thought of this, was shocked, and she realized what she had overlooked.

For no reason, what did the two maids deliberately do with handkerchiefs to frame their wife and the housekeeper's son?

They are also Mrs. Wu's personal maids, and the end of this is not much better!

But if there is a third person in it, it makes sense, when the East Window incident happens, Mrs. Wu is bullied, and the two maids can still be taken back by Mrs. County Ling without being scolded.

That way, she figured it out.

Ye Hao was thinking about the key here, and Aunt Huang over there spoke:

"Could it be that girl is the maid next to Mrs. Prefectural? We were not mistaken, it was indeed a girl who bumped into us on the way up the hill and came straight to the temple!"

But her words made the monk even more confused.

Although he was not familiar with the two pilgrims in front of him, the other party looked categorical, so he couldn't refute it.

It's just that......

"Today, the county lady and the maid have been staying together and have never left, maybe the girl did not come to our temple."

After saying this, the monk himself felt very strange.

There is only Jinquan Temple on this mountain, neither to come to the temple to worship the Buddha, could it be that the girl just came to see the scenery?

This is not right, according to what the two described, the girl looked in a hurry, and it didn't look like she was going to the green.

Seeing that the two were at a stalemate, Ye Hao hurriedly spoke out to suppress the matter.

"Since you are not a temple pilgrim, you want to come to the mountain to walk around, and there is no hindrance! I heard that the lottery at Gimsen Temple is very smart, so I'll give it a try!"

I have figured out the ins and outs, so I can't let these two continue to interrogate.

If it's exposed, it's not good.

Although the way she changed the topic was a little lame, the other two didn't say anything, but they suppressed this doubt in their hearts.

The young monk didn't want to continue to dwell on this matter, so he picked up the stick holder with a smile and motioned for Ye Hao to pull one out.

As a modern female doctor, even though Ye Hao has experienced the bizarre experience of traveling and carrying a space system, she still doesn't believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world.

Just to divert attention, she smiled and took out a bamboo stick at random.

The monk took the bamboo stick in her hand, and when he saw the contents and the bright red mark on the head of the stick, his face suddenly changed.

He bowed slightly to the two of them, and said with a stern expression:

"I'm sorry, two ladies. The little monk has shallow qualifications, and he can't solve this sign, so he has to invite the master to come."

With that, he smiled apologetically to the two of them, and left in a hurry.

The two people who were left in place looked at each other, especially Ye Hao, who was full of inexplicability.

You can't be so black, right? Got a draw?

After all, she didn't look at the young monk's face like a good result.

Aunt Huang, who was standing on the side, was also surprised, it was not the first time she had come to ask for a signature, every time she came in the past, whether it was herself or looking at others, it was the monks present who could answer.

This is the first time that the master has come forward!

However, thinking of Ye Hao's unusual nature, she stabilized again.

Mrs. Xie looks like a dragon and phoenix among people, and it is reasonable to have this treatment.

The two of them did not wait long, and before half a quarter of an hour had passed, they saw an old monk with white hair walking slowly from the apse.

His steps were steady, his expression was calm, and the young monk they had seen before followed each other cautiously.

"It's the lot that this donor asked for."

After coming to the two of them, the young monk pointed at Ye Hao, and the old monk turned his gaze to her.

As soon as she made eye contact with the other party, Ye Hao froze, and suddenly the whole person relaxed.

The eyes as smooth as an ancient well make people tired, as if they want to get away from the disturbances of the world.

"Amitabha, the poor monk's Dharma name is clear, and he is the presiding officer of Jinquan Temple."

The old monk's voice was also hoarse and low, as if it contained the vicissitudes of the world.

The two rushed in to return the ceremony, and the presiding officer was the highest status symbol of the temple, usually the most senior monk.

The moment she saw the monk, Ye Hao knew very well in her heart that this master of Yiqing was a person with some ability.

"My surname is Ye, my husband's surname is Xie, and I won this lot."

As soon as her words landed, Master Yiqing's gaze looked her up and down again, and a ripple rolled up in her eyes.

"Madame, this signature can only be explained to you alone."
