Looking at the dilapidated appearance of the Zhenwu Temple in front of him, and then thinking about encountering such evil things at the foot of the mountain, Li Zhengyi had lost some confidence in this matter of worshiping gods.
If the true God had a spirit, there shouldn't be anything like a robbery or robbery happening at the foot of the mountain.
Even if we take a step back, at least we should get ourselves a decent temple.
In the middle of the wall made of earth and stones on the top of the mountain, there was a wooden-colored plaque on the gate, with the words Zhenwu Temple written on it.
The door is open, and it's not very wide when you get inside, and there are actually a few weeds growing in the yard.
The gate is facing a blue brick house standing on the steps, which is the Zhenwu Hall, the only building in the courtyard.
Under the main hall stood an incense cauldron made of polished stone. There was nothing in it except some incense ashes that were about to be blown away by the wind.
Seeing this, Li Zhengyi's heart became cold again.
But you’ve come here, you can’t just go back without doing anything, right? At the very least, you should dispose of the things in your hands.
Going up the steps, the door of the main hall was open, and Li Zhengyi could roughly see what was going on inside from the door.
On the stone pier stands a tall and majestic statue of the god standing with a sword, wearing golden armor and jade belt, wearing a mysterious robe, with bare feet and long hair, standing on a turtle and snake.
There is a table made of wood in front of the statue. There is nothing on it. No one has been here for an unknown period of time.
But there wasn't much dust on it, probably due to the mountain wind.
The statue in front of me looks very old. Although it has collected some dust and the paint has faded over time, its form is still lifelike. His eyes were electric, looking straight ahead.
Li Zhengyi's careless look became somewhat restrained.
After taking a closer look, I decided there was nothing special about it, so I stopped wasting time. He untied a handful of yellow incense in his hand, lit it and inserted it into the incense burner outside.
After looking around and still seeing no one, he knelt down in front of the statue of Emperor Zhenwu and worshiped several times.
"Dear Emperor Zhenwu, please bless me that my mental power will be greatly improved immediately, and that I can successfully awaken a powerful mission weapon in ten days. Please bless me."
After praying, kowtow seriously three times.
After getting up, Li Zhengyi closed his eyes and waited for about half a minute, but the numbers still did not change.
"Isn't it still possible?"
Now he has begun to stop asking the sky and ask ghosts and gods, but the ghosts and gods don't seem to play much role in this regard?
Going up the steps and entering the Zhenwu Hall again, Li Zhengyi looked at the lifelike statues in silence.
Disappointed? Definitely disappointed.
But it is not that there is no preparation for failure. After all, as a person who has traveled through the new era, he still has a relatively indifferent view of ghosts and gods.
He only tried because there was no other way.
At the moment, Li Zhengyi didn't know what to do. Did he really want to talk to his parents in the end?
But half a million in this era is simply an astronomical figure for most families.
Thinking that the awakening time was getting closer, he became more and more depressed.
His eyes glanced at the bottle of liquor on the table in front of the statue. This was a high-end product that he had spent more than 20 dollars on, and it was about to be wasted.
"You don't care anyway, you might as well let me take a sip and taste it."
After saying this, without waiting for the statue's consent, Li Zhengyi opened the wine bottle and took a sip. The spicy aftertaste was followed by a sweet aftertaste, which made him smack his tongue.
He didn't like drinking liquor at first, he thought it was too exciting. However, socializing after work is indispensable, and I gradually began to accept it.
But later I actually started to like this feeling, especially when I was alone in the rental house in the dead of night. After two or three drinks, it seemed like all the worries disappeared.
Moreover, I can still have a good sleep despite being dizzy, and I no longer toss and turn at night, making it difficult to fall asleep.
"Hmm... Brother Zhenwu, don't you feel cold living here alone?"
Unconsciously, after half a bottle of white wine was consumed, the world in front of Li Zhengyi became more exciting.
He may have forgotten that his body in this world has not experienced the training of the wine table culture. The amount of more than half a kilogram is enough to make a young man drunk.
"Hey...what are you dancing for? Just...can't you listen to me...hiccup~"
"You said it would be great to wake me up...you subjugate demons...I will uphold justice! How good we two brothers work together..."
Perhaps seeing the statue ignoring him, Li Zhengyi became a little less interested. He slammed the bottle with less than a third left on the table and left shaking.
"Ha...I won't tell you anymore. It's useless. I have to go back to exercise. You...just stay by yourself..."
His voice became softer and quieter, and when he came to his senses, Li Zhengyi was already on his way down the mountain outside Zhenwu Temple.
The scene in front of him became more and more lively. A tree trunk wanted to grow eight shadows, and some little people were flying around in front of him.
"Go! This road...why do you keep avoiding me..."
Don't ask a drunk person how he got down the mountain, he himself doesn't know.
Anyway, I staggered down like that. I don’t know where I ended up, but I fell on a pile of firewood and felt quite comfortable. Li Zhengyi changed his position and fell into a deep sleep...
"Well...I told you I don't want to eat chicken butts...hehe..."
Not knowing who he was eating with in his dream, Li Zhengyi pouted and slowly opened his eyes.
He glanced around sleepily, changed his position and prepared to continue his sweet dream.
Um?
Why is it almost dark? How long have you slept? I will definitely get scolded again when I go back!
"Eh? No!"
After opening his eyes to see clearly the surrounding environment, Li Zhengyi was immediately startled.
He discovered that after accidentally getting drunk, he actually sneaked into someone's yard and slept on someone else's firewood pile for most of the day.
Fortunately, the owner of the house should not be here, otherwise he would have been beaten as a thief. You have to sneak away as soon as possible before anyone notices.
Perhaps the drunkenness had not dissipated, and because he had been lying on the pile of firewood for too long, Li Zhengyi stood up and felt unsteady on his feet.
Although my mouth is a little dry, I can only wait until I go out.
But this family's house is really strange. It's old, it's made of wood, and the brackets on the eaves must be very troublesome to make.
The building in front of you is a two-story building that doesn't look very tall. But if you look closely, it turns out to be made of brick and wood structure. The second floor is mostly made of wood, and the roof eaves are made of old bricks and tiles.
No matter how you look at it, it seems a little out of step with the times.
"Fuck, what's going on!"
"Where's the uncle's three hundred and sixty degrees? Fifty yuan!"
Li Zhengyi suddenly found that the sports clothes he was wearing had been replaced by a suit of blue and gray burlap clothes at some point.
The feet have turned into black cloth shoes, and the leather gloves on the hands have disappeared!
No, totally wrong!
He soon realized that the situation was not simple. Judging from the situation around him and himself, Li Zhengyi believed that it was very likely that he had traveled through time again.
He quickly closed his eyes and checked the system, and then his expression changed drastically...
