"Brother, why is this Great Buddha Temple so deserted today?"
A pilgrim who was climbing the stairs couldn't help asking when he saw Lian Ge coming down the mountain.
"The Great Buddha Temple is closed today."
Lian Ge replied casually, and then he didn't stop to listen to the pilgrim's complaint, and continued walking down the stairs.
……
After a while, Lian Ge walked down the stairs without haste and stopped slightly at the foot of the mountain.
Unlike when we came here, the vendors who set up stalls at the foot of the mountain in the past have disappeared today, leaving only a flat and open ground.
After sweeping his eyes, Lian Ge chose a direction at random, and when he was about to take another step, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly sounded a reminder.
"Buzz...hum."
Afterwards, Lian Ge took out the phone, turned on the screen and glanced casually.
It was two text messages from the bank.
"Dear user, your bank card number ending in 0496 has received a transfer of 10 yuan, and the balance is 000 yuan..."
Chapter 98 Restaurant, couple
"...Master, this is the first trigram money paid to you. The remaining part due to you may need to be delayed for a few days because it will take some time to realize it. I hope the master can forgive me."
Same as the previous arrival reminder, this text message is also sent by the bank.
Looking at the two text messages, Lian Ge smiled and shook his head.
After turning off the screen and putting the phone back into his pocket, Lian Ge looked away, moved away again, and walked straight into the distance.
"System, recharge 1000 million Chinese currency."
Without much hesitation, Lian Ge walked towards the distance while looking at the system interface that had been awakened, ready to put all the hexagram gold he had just received into it.
"Are you sure to recharge 1000 million Huaguo coins, you can get [-] enlightenment points."
After scanning the prompt that popped up in the system, after the [-] accumulated recharge rewards are reached, there will be no more accumulated recharge rewards.
"determine."
"The recharge is successful, and 12121 enlightenment points have been obtained. The current enlightenment point balance is [-] points."
After confirming again, the recharge is complete.
Immediately afterwards, the bank's fee deduction text message appeared on the mobile phone, and a full 1000 million yuan disappeared from Lian Ge's bank account lightly, without causing any impact.
Looking at the five-digit enlightenment point balance on the system interface, a smile appeared on Lian Ge's face.
Glancing again, Lian Ge closed the system interface again, and continued to walk forward without haste.
……
After leaving Yunshan, Lian Ge returned to Nandu City.
Although it has been away for a few days, there is no change in the Southern Capital City, the crowds are surging, the traffic is busy, and it is noisy and lively.
When Lian Ge stepped into the urban area, it was just after noon, and there were people of all colors hurrying past everywhere on the side of the road.
Compared with all the living beings around, Lian Ge, who is strolling in the garden, seems to be in another world.
Just like when he first came to Nandu City, Lian Ge looked at all kinds of people passing by, and walked unhurriedly while sizing up.
From the main road to the pedestrian street, to the bridge across the river, to the lively or cold streets and alleys.
Lian Ge passed all kinds of people, the staff who were anxious to go to work, the man who had a drink and greeted his friends to go to the teahouse, the woman pushing the stroller, the woman with another child's mother, and the classmate who came out of the milk tea shop student……
Lian Ge paid attention to all kinds of people in various states, and also observed Nandu, a city with a long history.
……
After stepping into the city, I walked for a long time,
Lian Ge stopped in his tracks because of the protest of his rumbling stomach and the squeaking of the little white mouse.
I glanced at where I was,
On an unknown street, trees are planted on both sides of the street, and their extended branches and leaves block the sunlight, making the whole street under the shade of greenery.
On both sides of the trees, there are paved walkways with floor tiles. There are some shops, clothing stores, or restaurants and snack bars on both sides of the walkway.
It can be seen from the lush branches and leaves of the trees and the mottled traces outside some shops that this is an old street for some years.
After scanning from far to near, Lian Ge looked away, then chose the nearest restaurant and walked in.
"...Welcome, what do you want to eat?"
The decoration in the restaurant is a bit old, and the wall covering on one side of the wall is a little off.When Lian Ge first stepped into the restaurant, a waiter in his forties warmly greeted him.
"Do you have any special dishes? Let's have one, and then another meal." Lian Ge glanced at the menu posted on the wall and said casually.
"Then how about some squirrel fish and some Jinling grass?"
"Okay." Lian Ge nodded.
"Then sit down and wait a moment."
Arranged for Lian Ge to sit down at a table, after pouring Lian Ge a cup of tea, the waiter walked away.
Lian Ge sat down, moved his eyes and scanned the restaurant.
Although it's past the meal time, there are still scattered people sitting in the restaurant,
A young man was playing with his mobile phone while eating, several middle-aged men gathered at a table and drinking wine, and a couple was sitting near the door.
"...Deep feelings, bored, come on, let's go one more time... Hey, I don't go to work this afternoon anyway, what are you afraid of..."
"Ding dong... ding dong..."
"Honey, let's go to Master Huang's booth after dinner to see if he's there..."
"... Can it work? Last time he..."
"Hey, what can I do? No one dares to take this matter... let's go and have a look."
With his keen sense of hearing, the movements of everyone in the restaurant can be heard clearly in Lian Ge's ears.
The young man playing with his mobile phone was obviously chatting with a human penguin.
As for the exchange between the couple, Lian Ge paused his gaze slightly.
"...Hey, could it really be my mother...she used to love Xiaoyi the most..."
"I used to love Xiaoyi, but your mother..."
……
"Brother, here comes your food."
While Lian Ge was paying attention to the young couple by the door, the waiter brought the dishes to Lian Ge's table.
"This is the squirrel fish you ordered, Jinlingcao, do you need a meal for you?"
"It's troublesome." Lian Ge looked away and nodded.
"You're welcome." With a smile on his face, the waiter turned around and filled a bowl of rice with the rice cooker by the restaurant's kitchen, walked back and handed it to Lian Ge.
"Brother, here, if you need more food, just ask."
Lian Ge smiled and nodded, then looked at the waiter and asked:
"Can I ask something?"
"Brother, if you ask, I will tell you if I want to know." The waiter replied straightforwardly.
"Is there any famous gentleman around here?"
"Brother, you mean Feng Shui master, fortune teller, etc."
"Correct."
"Brother, don't you live here often? It's just across the street, that's over there, and there's a hundred meters away, which is the famous Fengshui Culture Street nearby. Many gentlemen and masters like to set up stalls there. There are also those who sell stationery and books, and they all like to set up shop there." The waiter pointed to the outside of the restaurant and said to Lian Ge.
As he said that, the waiter paused again, glanced at Lian Ge, then lowered his voice and added,
"But what the gentleman on the street said, young man, just listen to it and laugh, don't take it seriously."
Lian Ge nodded when he heard the words, but didn't answer, waiting for the waiter's next words,
"The gentlemen and masters on the street are actually lovers. Several of them are retired old men in our community. They read a few books when they have nothing to do, and dare to go to the street to tell fortunes. They say they don't charge much. , but sometimes when something really happens to someone else's house, it's really harmful..."
"...waiter, check out."
The couple by the door stood up and called out to the waiter.
"Hey, here we come..." The waiter responded first, then turned his head and said quickly to Lian Ge:
"Brother, use it slowly, I'll leave now."
With that said, the waiter quickly walked towards the door,
"Sir, there are 68 in total, WeChat and Alipay are fine..."
……
Lian Ge looked at the parents again, and when he saw them stepping out of the restaurant, he looked away.
Pick up the chopsticks, hold a chopstick 'Jinling Grass' and hand it to the mouse,
Lian Ge smiled when he saw the little white mouse hugging and gnawing, and then started to eat with his rice bowl in his hand.
……
After a while, one person and one mouse finished their meal without haste and stood up again.
"Brother, is the taste okay?"
"pretty good."
"...Brother, the total is 62, and you can just charge [-] for the zero."
After paying the bill, Lian Ge stepped out of the restaurant.
Pausing slightly, looking inside and outside the street, Lian Ge chose a direction and walked straight towards the 'Feng Shui Culture Street'.
Chapter 99 Feng Shui Street
Feng Shui Culture Street.
After Lian Ge stepped into this street, he continued to walk along the street in a leisurely manner while looking at the scene within his sight.
The entire Fengshui Culture Street is not long, and you can see it from the street to the end of the alley at a glance.
On the street, people come and go, bustling.
On both sides of the street, there are antique shops, calligraphy and painting shops, bookstores, stationery stores, and customers come in and out from time to time.
Outside these shops, on both sides of the road, there are some fortune-telling stalls, a piece of cloth, and a few matzas, which further squeeze the narrow street.
From time to time, people would stop by it, either curious or really troubled.
"...When you are 67 years old, it is a hurdle. If you pass it, you will be able to reach 87. If you don't make it through, then 67 years old will be over..."
"...The horoscopes of the young couple are very compatible, there is nothing to conflict... But sometimes, it depends on the individual whether the two people get along or not."
"...Young man, just looking at your face, I know that you are a blessed person. Look at your ears, as the saying goes, big ears have great blessings, while small ears have little blessings."
"...Well, there is something wrong with the feng shui pattern of your house. You see, the window of your living room is facing the living room door. Every time you go home and open the door, do you feel the wind passing through the door? ah!"
Passing by these stalls, listening to the voices of the fortune tellers and feng shui masters who set up the stalls, Lian Ge couldn't help smiling, but he didn't stop moving forward.
Walking from the street to the end of the alley, pedestrians gradually thinned out, and the number of fortune tellers on both sides also decreased.
But before some noisy voices were left behind, not far from Lian Ge, there was a dispute,
"...Master Huang, you have great supernatural powers, please, find a way, think of a way..."
"What supernatural powers, I'm a liar, I'm a magic stick, I just eat for a living, don't you understand...I was obsessed with ghosts and wanted to see the money, but now I don't want the money, so I can give it back to you, okay? ..."
