Chapter 201: The Lonely Monastery and the Trevi Fountain

Pishan Temple is located in the northern suburbs of the provincial capital in the mountains.

Compared with other temples in the provincial capital where incense is flourishing, this temple is a bit too low-key, and it can even be said that it has no sense of existence......

But Chen Jing has been here before.

Li Mobai too.

That's when they were still studying.

In order to pray for a good score in the college entrance examination, the two of them worshiped all the temples and Taoist temples in the city with the mentality of having dates and not hitting a pole.

Not even the only church in the provincial capital was spared.

Chen Jing still remembers the picture of himself praying helplessly to the statue of God.

At that time, Li Mobai was sitting in the back and eating fried potatoes, causing a group of believers who came to participate in the church service to roll their eyes at him.

"It's still the same ...... here"

When Chen Jing took Qiao Youning to Bishan Temple, he only found that there was no change between this place and his memory.

The quaint and empty temple is hidden in the mountains, and the mountain roads paved with bluestone bricks on the ground are still stained with yellow mud after the rain.

Everything here looks very shabby.

The pervasive smell of decay is somewhat unsettling.

Chen Jing remembered that there was an old monk living here.

He is the only living person in the Bishan Temple.

When Chen Jing and Li Mobai came for the first time, the chubby old monk specially gave them a few scones to eat, saying that they were made by mixing wild vegetables from the mountains, and they were fragrant when they were just baked!

But now...... The old monk is gone.

Dead, or moved away, it's all possible.

The front and back of the temple were empty, and there were no human figures in sight, and Chen Jing couldn't sense the breath other than him and Qiao Youning.

"How is it eerie here......" Qiao Youning said this, and deliberately leaned over to Chen Jing's side, but looking at her expression, she was not afraid at all, and seemed to be a little curious about this place.

"It's not popular in this place, it's normal to be eerie."

Chen Jing said and glanced back at Bai Aji.

There was a warning in his eyes.

Don't run around, and don't follow into the temple.

So as not to accidentally collapse the exterior wall.

"I just sent a message to Li Mobai, he said that they had a little trouble and might come ......later," Qiao Youning said in a low voice.

"Then wait." Chen Jing smiled, raised his finger and pointed to the big water tank placed in the courtyard of the temple, "I also made a wish here." ”

With that, Chen Jing took Qiao Youning over.

The diameter of the water tank placed in the courtyard is about one meter, and it is filled with rainwater received on rainy days, and there is a small ceramic bowl carved with dragons and phoenixes at the bottom of the tank, and some coins of five cents are piled up on the side.

"You made a wish on this big tank in the first place?"

"yes, haven't you played?" Chen Jing fumbled in his pocket as he spoke, as if he was looking for something, "I see that many temples have this thing......

Qiao Youning shook her head, and asked curiously, "What are you looking for?" ”

"Do you have a coin?" Chen Jing asked.

"No ......"

"It's okay, here!"

Chen Jing glanced at the water tank, and before Qiao Youning could react, he had already rolled up his sleeves and suddenly put his right hand into the water tank, grabbing a large handful of five-cent coins.

"Here you go." Chen Jing gave half of it to Qiao Youning, bent over and stood by the water tank staring at the small ceramic bowl at the bottom of the tank, "Don't touch the water, throw the coin down, if you can fall into the bowl, it means that you are going to be lucky......"

"Understood...... Then I'll try! ”

Qiao Youning held his breath and stared, aimed at the small bowl at the bottom of the jar, and carefully put down a coin.

With a plop, the coin enters the water.

The course that should have been straight down suddenly changed, and the coin swayed left and right in the water, and finally fell next to the porcelain bowl.

"This has to be skillful." Chen Jing said with a smile, and then also tossed a coin...... In the expectant gaze of the two, the coin finally fell to the very edge of the bottom of the tank, which was even worse than Qiao Youning.

Seeing that Chen Jing's expression was a little lost, Qiao Youning hurriedly persuaded.

"It's okay! We've got a handful of coins too! Take your time and don't rush! ”

"I didn't rush ...... in the first place"

Maybe it's because Chen Jing and they came, and the empty temple finally has some life.

The two of them chattered in the courtyard, and Baiaji yawned outside the gate.

Occasionally, it would look up into the woods and find the noisy cicadas annoying......

For this kind of rare and interesting entertainment.

Chen Jing and Qiao Youning both cherish it.

From beginning to end, they kept the strength of their hands at the level of a normal person.

No one wants to cheat.

But it is estimated that Chen Jing's luck is too bad.

Qiao Youning threw in more than a dozen coins one after another, and he couldn't throw one in the end.

So when he got to the back, Chen Jingdu couldn't help but be a little irritable, and the coin toss became more and more crooked, eager to ...... directly

"It's okay, take your time." Qiao Youning could see that Chen Jing was a little angry, and hurriedly reassured him, "I believe you can do it!" ”

"Don't coax me with words to coax children...... Chen Jing said with a smile, and he was deflated all of a sudden.

Chen Jing squatted by the water tank and looked a little helpless.

He spread out his palms and looked at it, and there was only the last coin left......

"I shouldn't be so unlucky......"

After carefully looking at it for about half a minute, Chen Jing carefully tossed out the last coin.

Plop into the water.

The coin staggered down toward the porcelain bowl.

Seeing this, Chen Jing couldn't help but hold his breath, watching it fall into the bowl...... But just as it was halfway deep, it shook violently and deviated from its original course again.

Seeing that the last coin was about to fall out of the porcelain bowl again, Chen Jing also sighed resignedly.

It seems that I am really a little unlucky, and it is better to be careful recently, especially not to gamble with others, otherwise......

Suddenly.

Just hear the sound of the water.

An arm as white as jade suddenly stretched out from Chen Jing's side into the water tank.

The slender and slender knuckles instantly caught the coin that was about to fall to the bottom of the bowl, and then slowly moved to the top of the bowl, and helped Chen Jing throw it into it at close range, falling into the bowl accurately.

"It doesn't count." Chen Jing hung his head and said dejectedly, turning his face sideways and glancing at Li Mobai who was standing beside him, "The Buddha doesn't admit cheating. ”

"Dare not admit it."

Li Mobai stood beside Chen Jing with his backlight, his face seemed to be shrouded in shadows, but his smile was brighter than the sun.

The teeth in his mouth may also be a synthetic product, and they are so bright that people's eyes shine.

"My brother gave him face and made a wish here, and if he dared to disown me, he demolished this broken temple!"

"It's unlucky, not a single one has entered the ......" Chen Jing sighed and stood up, and when he looked back, there were more than a dozen people in strange costumes standing in the courtyard.

He had heard a series of footsteps behind him.

It's just that at that time, he was so preoccupied with good luck that he was so engrossed in the last coin that he didn't bother to look back.

"Let me tell you about ......"

Li Mobai just shook it lightly, and the water droplets on his arms were instantly shaken off.

He lowered the long sleeves of his robe and looked at the humans who exuded the smell of the old people with a smile.

In their shocked gazes, Li Mobai hooked his shoulders and hugged Chen Jing, smiling brightly.

"This is my brother! Chen Jing! ”
