78 Ancient Temples
In the howl of the male ghost crying wolf, Tan Xiao helped Kong Xuan fill out the form and applied to borrow the chariot plate for review, in view of the fact that this is related to Kong Xuan's studies, the 404 Office opened a green channel for Kong Xuan to approve it.
However, because of Kong Xuan's current identity, he is actually hanging under Tan Xiao's name.
Before leaving, the male said to the chariot plate, "Wait, for you will be killed if you do many acts of injustice." β
Chariot: "......"
Neurotic bar this snake.
"When is the time for retribution?" Talk about Xiaoyou.
With this card that can't solve anything, Kong Xuan's review is even more like a fish in water, and he passed the final exam of this semester safely.
On the day of the exam, everyone went back to their classrooms to restore the desks and chairs, and the teacher routinely talked about the precautions for the holiday.
"It's such a big person, don't go into the river to swim, I won't say much about it." Ji Huiming said, I can always hear about You Yeyong's accident every year, and their school is not bad, "They are all quasi-high school juniors, I think everyone understands...... But don't be too greedy, just get to the point. β
It's basically a clichΓ©.
Ji Huiming also deliberately chatted with Kong Xuan alone, "I heard that your target university ...... Same as Tan Xiao? β
Tan Xiao has always had a clear goal, and she has thought about it early, hoping to be admitted to Quedong University, which is a famous university in science and engineering. And Kong Xuan, because he has been listening to this knowledge recently, has not hidden that he also wants to take the Quedong test.
I don't know who told Ji Huiming, when the seats were arranged, Kong Xuan was surrounded by class cadres, and anyone could possibly.
Kong Xuan raised his chin: "Not bad." It was like there were just two of us in the class. β
There was a bit of pride in his tone, just like they were.
Ji Huiming: "......"
Ji Huiming thinks the slot is so big, do you know why only the two of you have the same goal?
He admits that Kong Xuan's progress is great, but there is still a score gap compared with Tan Xiao, who is steady and has an increasingly obvious advantage. It was precisely because he saw Kong Xuan's efforts in his eyes that he wanted to remind Kong Xuan not to want to eat a big fat man in one bite.
"How much did you get off your overall score on the last exam?" How can there be a ...... of 100 points" Ji Huiming remembered not very specifically, "I know many examples that show that you can improve your score a lot in the third year of high school, but you don't need to set your goals too high at the beginning, and you have to eat a bite of food." β
"It's not that bad, I can add points then." Kong Xuan recalled it and smiled movingly.
"Why do you get extra points?" Ji Huiming thought about it for a long time, but he didn't expect Kong Xuan to have any policies that could be taken care of, what was he doing here with a moved face.
"I can't tell you right now." Kong Xuan also wanted to say it, but if the 404 Office didn't catch the sniper, the case would not be closed, and the matter had not been decided, how could he tell Ji Huiming.
Ji Huiming: "......"
Ji Huiming: "Don't you want to be a magician?" That goal ......"
It's okay not to mention this, who wants to be a magician! Kong Xuan interrupted him: "Teacher, didn't you say that you want to find a spiritual sustenance?" Why are you persuading me? β
Ji Huiming was stunned.
So Kong Xuan worked so hard during this time because he wanted to be admitted to the same school with his good friends? Looking at Kong Xuan's expression, the words of persuasion could not be spoken.
Everyone's situation is different, maybe for Kong Xuan, he doesn't need to improve step by step, only looking at the farthest distance, he is the most motivated.
"Then you have to do it!" Ji Huiming thought about it and said, "I'll give you some information about Quedong when the time comes." β
When Kong Xuan heard this, he also said solemnly: "Thank you, Master." β
Ji Huiming: "......"
You're ...... Ji Huiming looked at him amusedly and was amused. However, he really felt unprecedented respect from Kong Xuanzhong's joking words, which seemed to work better than sending Kong Xuan's magic props, and it seemed that Kong Xuan still had ideals.
After Kong Xuan went back, Tan Xiao was still talking to Lin Yang, and the two stopped to look at him, "What did the teacher say to you?" β
Kong Xuan said lightly: "He knew that I wanted to take the Quedong exam, so he encouraged me and said that he would send me information." β
Lin Yang: "...... Are you sure? β
Kong Xuan said unhappily: "What do you mean by questioning?" Do you think I won't be able to pass the test? β
"Nope." Lin Yang shouted injustice, "I thought the teacher was going to talk to you, why have you been sitting on Tan Xiao's side recently, watching us Xiaozi squeeze, it is enough for me to become a paper man alone!" "He's had suffered so much!
Kong Xuan: "......! β
Kong Xuan secretly glanced at Tan Xiao, slightly shocked in his heart.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, he was embarrassed for a while, and he would bounce away even when he touched Tan Xiao, but knowing that Tan Xiao was also helping him with things that he wanted to add points, he couldn't suppress it, he just wanted to post Tan Xiao, and took the opportunity to flip through the book and get a pen. But he consciously did it very secretively, how could he even see Lin Yang, a mortal!
"Let's talk about it together." Tan Xiao coughed and glanced at Lin Yang.
Although Xiao Zai's eyes were very kind, Lin Yang felt a little cold inexplicably, and felt as if he shouldn't say it......
"That," Lin Yang hurriedly changed the topic, "Are there any arrangements for the summer vacation?" β
Tan Xiao used to go out with Tan Chunying during the summer vacation, or make appointments with classmates, especially when his birthday was during the summer vacation. This year's situation is different, Tan Xiao estimates that she will not go far away, "If you don't go out, you probably only have a little relaxation on your birthday." β
"I'll just go out to play for three days, and I'll be back as soon as I eat a severed meal." Lin Yang looked at the next day, "Remember to call me on your birthday!" β
β¦β¦
Tan Xiao's birthday was the hottest time in Nanchu.
In the self-built courtyard, the doors and windows on the second floor are closed, and the cool air of the air conditioner comes out from the crack in the door, Kong Xuan and Tan Xiao sit side by side at the desk to write summer vacation homework, Kong Xuan has a card in front of him, and the Sphynx on it is on duty, and the other is resting on all fours.
It was originally a single desk, and it was made relatively large, and when two people sat together, it seemed a little cramped, but neither of them said anything.
Even because Kong Xuan's body was cold, Tan Xiao still felt that it was very relieving of the heat, and the arm stretched out under his short sleeves couldn't tell whether it was a little cold blown by the air conditioner, or it was caused by sticking to Kong Xuan.
There are two neat homework on the desk, and after writing the test paper, Tan Xiao will put it in the middle. After Kong Xuan finished writing, he also put it next to Tan Xiao, symmetrically clinging to it, and felt that he had taken another step towards him.
"Would you like to take a break?" After Tan Xiao finished writing a test paper, she put down the pen and moved her wrist.
Kong Xuan originally wanted to say that I was not tired and I would continue to write, but after thinking about it, he stopped writing, and said casually: "Did the teacher say last time that I have been writing for a long time, and I want to take a look at the green?" β
"That's right." Tan Xiao said, "Then stand up and take a look." β
Look at the plants in the distance outside.
Kong Xuan stretched out his feet to stop him.
This......
Tan Xiao felt that her legs were being hooked and touched, and before she could suspect too much, Kong Xuan had turned back into a green peacock, and one of her claws was still cocked.
Tan Xiao: "...... Hahaha!! β
Kong Xuan was inexplicable, what are you laughing at, doesn't he want to look at the green, isn't he so green that he is not eye-catching?
Tan Xiao couldn't help but touch it with her foot, pressed down his paw and put it back on the ground, and touched his tail again, not to mention that this green color is really good-looking, and it is very smooth.
Kong Xuan's head rose up with his stroking action, and a thought was born, and he hesitated to say it in his heart, seeing Tan Xiao's fingers shuttling between the feathers, he still couldn't hold back, and said casually: "Do you like it?" β
He deliberately omitted the subject ambiguously, as if he had brought in his own little thoughts, hoping to get an answer that would make him happy.
Tan Xiao paused, his fingers slowly slid over the tip of the feather, he looked at the tutoring card on the table, "Good looking, I ......"
"Tan Xiao?" Tan Chunying took half of the chilled watermelon upstairs and knocked on the door.
Tan Xiao and Kong Xuan glanced at each other, and Kong Xuan immediately used his wings to pull his homework and disappeared into the air together.
In the next second, Tan Chunying had already pushed the door in, "Rest, eat some fruit." She didn't cut it, but just stuck a spoon on the half of the watermelon, believing that her son would be able to eat it.
"Okay, thank you, Mom."
Tan Xiaocai took the fruit and heard Tan Chunying say, "I always feel that I heard the voice of your classmate Kong Xuan just now." β
"......" Tan Xiao raised her eyes, and saw that Tan Chunying looked suspicious, a little nervous, Kong Xuan only disappeared a few seconds ago, Tan Chunying wouldn't feel wrong.
"I'm talking to him on voice." Tan Xiao is calm and authentic.
"Then you two have a good relationship, will you invite him for your birthday?" Tan Chunying's body is a little weak, and he can't blow the air conditioner for too long, so this season is a little uncomfortable, "It's been too hot and dry recently, why don't you go to the farm to live for a while, and it's your birthday soon, and you can call your classmates and friends in those two days, and everyone will blow the natural wind together, cool, and protect your eyes." β
"Yes." Tan Xiao thinks that's not bad.
"Then you can send a voice message to your classmates now." Tan Chunying said, "That Kong Xuan, aren't you still talking just now." β
It's rare for her son to have such a good time with any classmate.
"Okay." Tan Xiao raised her mobile phone awkwardly and sent a voice message to Kong Xuan's WeChat, not very skilled, "Kong Xuan, I plan to go to the resort farm on my birthday, do you have time to come over and play?" β
 
; Tan Chunying listened to the tone of his voice, "It sounds like you're not that familiar." β
Tan Xiao: "......"
Of course, when did he send WeChat to Kong Xuan, if Tan Chunying came over and flipped through his mobile phone, he would find that this was even the first message he sent to Kong Xuan on WeChat!
"Buzz."
A vibrating sound sounded.
Tan Xiao and Tan Chunying looked at each other strangely.
Tan Chunying: "What sound?" β
Tan Xiao: ...... It's Kong Xuan's mobile phone!
Damn, Kong Xuan left his phone outside.
I didn't expect that Kong Xuan blocked the group, and someone would send him a private message, which had never happened before.
Tan Chunying, out of parental acumen, flipped over Tan Xiao's bed and found an old mobile phone under the quilt, and she also recognized that this was an idle elderly machine at home.
Before he could turn it over, Tan Xiao pounced, "Mom! β
He took the phone in embarrassment and held it for a few seconds, "This is my spare phone and trumpet ......"
What kind of situation will you need a spare machine and a trumpet, Tan Xiao is not a person who is addicted to any games or something, Tan Chunying looked at Tan Xiao for a few seconds, and suddenly realized: "You are in love!" β
Maybe it's still online dating!
Tan Xiao: "......"
At this time, even Tan Xiao didn't know what to say (edited) well.
"Is it too stressful to be in the third year of high school?" Tan Chunying saw Tan Xiao's speechless appearance, and felt that her guesses were inseparable, she thought deeply, "Alas, I'm not an unreasonable person, I've always felt that you are very sensible, I believe in this matter, you can also control the measure, right?" When you go to the farm, you don't need to bring your phone with you. Even if you come back and tell your mother that you have thought it through, and you think it won't affect your studies, I approve of you. β
Tan Xiao was afraid of getting entangled on this topic, Tan Chunying wanted to look at the mobile phone to confirm, closed her eyes and said, "Okay." β
Tan Chunying was relieved, and it was still a little easy to deal with the problem of teenagers, "Well, you guys think about it separately and calmly." I'll go first...... Hey, by the way, how about you live in a room with Kong Xuan then? β
Tan Xiao: "............ Yes. β
.
Tan Chunying said that the resort farm was opened by a friend of hers, but it was her first time here, and she only heard that the temperature here was a little lower than in the city. The consequences are true, and there is a comfortable natural wind. The farm grows a lot of vegetables and fruits, as well as a large lotus pond, outdoor camping facilities, barbecue, open-air movies, open-air KTV, etc., all of which are available.
His classmate Kong Xuan came by car early in the morning, saying that there were no adults at home.
"You didn't have your phone, did you?" Tan Chunying confirmed that Tan Xiao didn't bring an online dating mobile phone, "Yes, you can stay with Xiaokong for the past few days, and you can go fruit picking when you are tired of reading." β
Tan Xiao was already numb: "Oh......"
Xiao Kong was in high spirits: "Good! β
Tan Chunying had already gone to play mahjong with her old friend.
The double room that Tan Xiao and Kong Xuan were arranged is on the first floor, and the room on the first floor here has a glass door leading directly to the outdoor lawn in addition to the door, which can be opened for ventilation and is very comfortable.
"Come, talk, don't be too shabby, we are in the countryside, you can tell me if you need anything." The staff knew that it was Sister Tan's child, and she spoke more like a friend, she peeked at Kong Xuan, Tan Xiao, a classmate, was extravagant, and looking at his demeanor, he always felt that he was a person who would pick on the accommodation conditions.
Before Tan Xiao could speak, Kong Xuan had already exclaimed, "Wow." β
Tan Xiao: "......"
βοΌβ The staff's heart was blocked, and they felt that Kong Xuan was mocking, "What, what's wrong, don't you like this room?" Too small? β
"No, it's a pretty good pattern." Kong Xuan looked around with satisfaction, his and Tan Xiao's beds were next to each other, and there was only a small bedside table in the middle, and he couldn't help but say, "I want to decorate my room like this." β
The staff said blankly: "...... Oh, I love the countryside, right? "Mom, this guest was unexpectedly kind, and even made her feel too much.
"Who decorates their bedroom with two beds?" Tan Xiao also said funny, thanked the staff, and put down the luggage.
Sitting by the window and doing your homework is really more enjoyable than being in an air-conditioned room.
In the afternoon, the classmates invited by Tan Xiao also arrived one after another, and there were not many classmates with whom he had a good relationship, and there were six or seven people in total, including Lin Yang and Yu Zhenzhen.
As soon as Lin Yang appeared, everyone was startled, "Why are you ...... The same as those who fled? β
Lin Yang looked three degrees darker than before the holiday, dark and swarthy, he smiled, showing two rows of big white teeth, "I went to the beach to play." β
This is what Lin Yang said about the severed head rice, he played wildly at the beach for three days, and his skin took off several layers.
Except for Lin Yang, the others are similar to Tan Xiao, they stay at home and do their homework during the holidays, like Yu Zhenzhen even stepped out of the house for the first time, "My parents said that I should not bring books, watch more green and then go back......"
"It seems that the squad leader is a little energetic at home." Lin Yang smiled, restless as soon as he came, "When I first got off the car, I chatted with the villagers here, and he said that there is a thousand-year-old temple next to it, should we go and see it?" β
"A thousand-year-old temple?" The other students were skeptical, "It's really fake." β
"Ask the people at the farm." Lin Yang found the staff and asked, the staff here are basically hired local villagers, and as soon as they said that there was an ancient temple, the other party nodded.
"That's for sure, I heard that in the past, scholars went to Beijing to take the exam, and they all lived in the Siming Temple, and there was a scholar who encountered a fox spirit to cross the robbery, and helped the fox to pass the thunder robbery, and then the scholar was named on the gold list, and was caught by a rich businessman, and found that the bride was the fox spirit." The staff told a story that made everyone feel very familiar and old-fashioned, and then said, "Our Siming Temple is very effective, you can go and see it." β
Everyone looked at each other, and the story was a bit old-fashioned......
But anyway, there was nothing wrong, the ancient temple was on the edge of the village, and Lin Yang took the lead in rushing out after saying hello, like a wild monkey.
"Isn't it the order to bless the fortune?"
"Hey, hey, hey, this is between going to school and going to school, choosing incense."
"Then you say, between eight million and the heavy capital, which one do you choose?"
A group of young people chatted in the sunshine that was not so warm after noon, while walking from the resort farm to the thousand-year-old temple that the villagers said, it was indeed not far, about ten minutes away from the village, you could see an old small building, the wall was slightly peeling, and it was lonely in the wild grass. If it weren't for the upturned eaves, Lin Yang wouldn't dare to recognize it.
ββ¦β¦ It's a little small. Lin Yang was speechless, this was too different from the temple in his imagination, the thousand-year-old temple in his imagination was naturally such a magnificent building in the scenic spot, and it could be visited for at least half an hour.
And the so-called thousand-year-old temple in front of them is only so small, no wonder they have never heard of it.
"You're thinking too much, the average village temple is only so big." Talking about Xiao is not unusual, there are more simple ones, many places in Chudi, there are temples in every village, and there is no village without a temple, but it is impossible to build a magnificent temple in Lin Yang's imagination.
"Are you going to see it?"
"Look at it, it's all here......"
Go around to the front and look up, look up and say "Stove King Temple", the gate is open, and naturally no one will guard the temple.
In the past, they were all sacrificed at their own stoves, so it was rare for the stove king to worship alone or in the Chenghuang Temple. However, Tan Xiao knows that there are many Zaowang temples in the capital, and this one in the village is likely to be that there are many people engaged in the food industry in the village - until now, there are many farmhouse restaurants and local restaurants.
"Didn't you say the Temple of Destiny? How is the Stove King Temple. Yu Zhenzhen didn't understand, and everyone looked at Tan Xiao tacitly.
"The Stove King Zun has the East Chef's order." Tan Xiao explained.
"Well, then let's go in and say goodbye, Lord Stove bless me with a great appetite." Lin Yang glanced at Kong Xuan, "Haha, Kong Xuan, you also bow down, you don't eat in the canteen with Tan Xiao at noon, let the Lord of the Stove bless you to always have a good takeaway restaurant." β
Kong Xuan raised his eyebrows and was silent.
A group of mermaids entered the small Stove King Temple.
Although the sparrow is small, it is complete, but the Stove King Temple is not sitting alone.
Behind the table in the temple, there is an old statue of the king of the stove, next to it is the grandmother of the king of the stove, and there are attendants, boys, etc. on the left and right, just like the "big stove king" hanging in the kitchen of their school, it is a family photo.
I always feel that this roof is too cramped. Lin Yang looked up, and felt that the top of the head of the Stove King was about to touch the beam, and he didn't even leave any room to spare, or the size of the statue was too large, in short, it didn't look very coordinated.
However, Lin Yang just thought about it in his heart, and didn't dare to say it, although it was a small temple, he still had a little bit of awe.
"This does look a bit old, and I don't know if it's a thousand years or not."
Lin Yang saw that Tan Xiao was also admiring the sculptures in the temple, and was standing in front of the statue of the Stove King and looking down at something, he also stretched his neck curiously to take a look, it turned out to be a statue of a boy holding a rice spoon under the throne of the Stove, yo is very cute and a child laborer.
"Hey, wait, this boy ......"
The boy seemed to be holding a spoon in one hand, and the other hand seemed to be pinching a trick, Lin Yang leaned closer to take a closer look, only to see that his thumb and index finger were intertwined, and the other three fingers were curled...... What a trick, isn't this a heart?!
"Who am I going to sell cuteness here, hahahaha, I don't know if there is a thousand years in this temple, there must not be this boy statue, right?" οΌοΌm..οΌ.
