While Leng Guansheng and Yao Jing were going to the front to worship the Bodhisattva, Li Chenguang approached Gardenia and whispered.
"I know you are a polite and good boy, but let's not be polite to others next time. Just eat by yourself. There is no need to invite someone you know when you see him. What if he steals my food?"
Of course, the real reason is not to deal with the other party.
Li Chenguang didn't want to eat with someone he didn't like.
Gardenia said with a relaxed smile, "It doesn't matter, I'll give you mine."
Li Chenguang threatened, "Then you don't have to eat? I eat a lot."
Gardenia smiled sweetly and said, "I'll just eat what's left. I'll eat very little."
"..."
Li Chenguang was shocked.
Really, what a virtuous child!
I really want to tie her up and take her home to be my wife right away.
Gardenia said with a bit of shyness, "Speaking of which, Aguang seems to have said that the marriage system in the outside world is different from that here, right?"
"Well, outside is the world a thousand years from now. Because of the war between humans and dragons, the population has only been reduced to one-tenth, or maybe even less. At that time, as long as you have a child, you will be given money, parking spaces, and discounts on house purchases. As long as you have money, men can marry multiple wives, and women can marry multiple husbands. Anyway, as long as you have money, you can practice faster and live in the imperial capital more safely. If you have money, you will be superior to others."
Gardenia blinked her big eyes and looked at Li Chenguang like a pitiful little animal, "This is a world that is very unfriendly to A Guang."
"Hey, why do you say that?"
Gardenia smiled and said, "With A Guang's financial resources, he can only die alone."
"...Although, it seems that there is a high probability that this will be the case, but it is weird coming from your mouth."
"If I can go out to the outside world, I'll be A Guang's wife."
Gardenia blushed, "Of course, it's only for A Guang, who is so pitiful in the outside world. Why is A Guang so pitiful? He doesn't even have the money to marry a wife."
"...What an angel."
Li Chenguang seemed to see the vast Buddha's light behind Gardenia's smile that purified the world and washed people's hearts.
It didn't work anymore. I felt that if I continued to chat, I might commit a crime, so I took Gardenia home by force.
Gardenia smiled regretfully, "But unfortunately, I'm just an NPC."
It is the shadow cast by Li Shuang on this world from outside.
Li Chenguang said with a serious face, "It doesn't matter, even NPCs can get married. I don't mind."
"I mind, you don't need money to get a wife here, so you can't do it here. Aguang should work hard on his own and don't take shortcuts!"
"Isn't this differential treatment?"
Why is it okay outside but not here?
I feel exactly the same about wanting to take Gardenia home.
Having said that, Li Shuang outside seems to be quite special to me...
While Li Chenguang was making jokes, Leng Guansheng and Yao Jing over there had already returned from paying homage.
Leng Guansheng said with a hearty smile, "Our draws are all very good. I didn't expect that we could unravel the draws here. What did you draw?"
Li Chenguang smiled politely and said, "It's okay, it's pretty good."
I don’t really want to say much.
Gardenia also smiled and nodded, "Let's go eat."
A group of people came to the Hanshan Temple monks’ dining hall.
It’s almost like fast food in Chinese restaurants outside.
Entering from the gate, the spacious hall inside is neatly arranged with relatively simple long tables. Each long table is for 8 people, 4 on the left and right, and equipped with double wooden benches.
Then on the far left is to pick up the tray along the flow of people.
There is a sign hanging on the wall next to it. It has white characters on a black background and it says ten yuan per person, unlimited rice, two dishes and one soup for self-service.
And the last sentence, "If you are operating at a loss, please cherish the food and don't waste it."
"I thought it was an all-you-can-eat buffet with a lot of dishes."
It turns out that I just picked 2 dishes at random.
But for 10 yuan, you get two dishes and one soup. I feel like they are really not making money.
Li Chenguang took a plate of garlic vermicelli, baby vegetables, a plate of ground and fresh vegetables, and ordered a portion of seaweed soup.
I have to say that this dish was cooked really well, and it looked shiny and appetizing. No wonder the few monks passing by were getting fatter than the last.
Gardenia sat on the same bench next to Li Chenguang.
I got a plate of fried mushrooms with tomato beancurd skin and chestnut green beans, as well as a bowl of tomato soup, which also looked shiny.
One good thing is that unlike the small plates in school, plates are used here, and the portions of the dishes are quite generous. It's not like in school, where you open your mouth wide and take one bite at a time.
Opposite Li Chenguang was Leng Guansheng. Leng Guansheng paid 20 and took 4 plates of food. He pushed the generous plate to the middle and said, "Here, let's eat together."
Li Chenguang saw it. This guy just loves to be pushy and wants to be different from others in everything.
Make yourself stand out from the crowd.
To play script killing, you have to read the script in advance, and you have to get four plates of food to eat a vegetarian meal.
This does not make you look rich, but makes you look like you are wasting food.
You're showing off in the wrong place, man.
The cafeteria was noisy, just like the vegetable market, full of laughter, fighting, and the screams of children.
The word "quiet" in front of it is completely regarded as nothing.
This means that if you want to talk to the person sitting across from you, you have to stick your head over as much as possible, and at the same time, the other person also sticks their head over in order to hear clearly.
You can't even hear what the people at the next table are saying.
"Speaking of which," Leng Guansheng looked at Li Chenguang and then at Gardenia, then put his head in and said, "Aren't you two lovers?"
"no!"
Before Li Chenguang had time to answer, Gardenia had already rejected it with all her strength and affirmed loudly, "They are classmates."
"That's it."
Leng Guansheng smiled and said, "Let me just say, it's normal for classmates to hang out together and come to say goodbye."
He gestured to himself and Yao Jing as he said, "It's like we are alumni, so it's normal to go out together, right?"
Li Chenguang thought to himself that it turned out to be a trick.
It's none of my business whether you do it or not.
There was still a polite smile on his face, "Indeed, indeed."
What I was thinking in my mind was that it was almost done, so stop trying to hide it.
No one wants to know what your relationship is.
"By the way, it's just you two."
"Just the two of us."
"What a coincidence, we are also two people."
The atmosphere was a bit stiff, and everyone seemed to have some tacit conventions that were not broken.
Then Leng Guansheng looked at Li Chenguang and wanted to find a random topic, but the two of them knew each other as script writers. As soon as they found a topic, they would easily talk about script killing. When they talked about script killing, they would easily talk about him reading the script in advance for vanity. For a moment I didn't know where to start.
One is from the University of Science and Technology and the other is from Jiangnan University. To say that the two sides are related...
He continued to explore his brain and said to Li Chenguang, "By the way, do you know Zhou Tiancheng?"
"Who?" Li Chenguang also looked towards him, "I don't think I've heard of it."
"The president of your school's student union."
"do not know."
Li Chenguang had little interaction with the student union, either in his previous life or in this life.
"He is coming to our school in the afternoon to hold a student union to discuss the half-marathon route around the university. I know him fairly well. If you have any thoughts on joining the student union, let me help you."
The role of the student union is neither big nor small.
At least here, students can just excuse themselves from classes on the grounds of work, receive scholarships, be evaluated for excellence, get extra credits, get closer to their advisors and leaders in the hospital, organize work, and accumulate social experience in advance for the future. When you find a job, you can get in touch with all kinds of elite people, as well as beautiful women.
There are quite a few people competing.
Moreover, introduction by acquaintances will make it easier for you to get promoted in the future.
It's a pity that Li Chenguang is not interested in these.
Shaked his head.
How could he, a social nerd, join the student union?
"That's a pity. I think the student union is still very good. It can greatly train a person."
At the same time, what he was thinking about was that he could get in touch with all kinds of beauties, otherwise he wouldn't do it.
While thinking about it, he realized that Gardenia was looking at him, so he approached Gardenia across the street and asked doubtfully, "Do you want to join the student union?"
Gardenia shook her head, then looked at Li Chenguang, "Aguang, if it would be easier to find a partner by joining the student union, would you like to go?"
"I can't go to Tsushima even if I find him. With my little ability, how can I go there and get scolded?"
"You can get in without working ability."
"so good?"
Leng Guansheng was confused by the conversation between the two. He couldn't understand their relationship. Why did he help Li Chenguang find a partner? They were really not a couple?
Li Chenguang looked at Leng Guansheng and wondered, "What do you do? And the president of our school's student union, why did you go to your school to talk?"
"I am the Minister of Literature and Art Department of the Student Union. Of course I will go to our school to talk. The President of the All-Jiangnan Colleges and Universities Joint Student Union is in our Jiangnan."
Because Jiangnan University is the largest and best university in Jiangnan.
Therefore, some school friendship matters will be discussed at Jiangnan University.
After going back and forth, Leng Guansheng got to know Zhou Tiancheng, the chairman of the student union of the Polytechnic University.
To put it bluntly, in Jiangnan, Jiangnan University is superior to others. Some university-wide joint matters must be discussed and decided by the president of the Jiangnan Student Union. The student union even has more power than some school leaders.
Everyone secretly also jokingly calls the president of the Jiangnan Student Union the general leader of the Jiangnan Student Union.
He also joked that every leader must be a man of extraordinary talent, literary, military and military skills, who could be called the dragon among dragons, and he could only defeat the best student presidents selected from other schools.
It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of status, Leng Guansheng, the Minister of Literature and Art of the Student Union of Jiangnan University, is on par with the presidents of student unions in other schools.
It's easy to say something for Li Chenguang.
Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
He made it clear that Che Ma wanted to bribe Li Chenguang and told him not to talk nonsense and ruin his good deeds when he went back.
While chatting, Li Chenguang learned about the organizational structure of the university in Jiangnan for the first time.
I really don’t know anything about my past life. I only go to class, eat, play games at home, and watch some body art or love art action movies.
"By the way, this is for you."
Leng Guansheng said, taking out two beautifully made postcards with gold embroidery on the outside and silver ornaments on the inside from his pocket, "This is an invitation letter for our school's cultural performance next week. Come and take a look when you have time."
"self-made?"
"certainly."
When Li Chengguang took it, he felt a sense of exquisite high-end. The materials used were quite honest. He felt that this card would be hard to buy for even 5 yuan. The upper right corner said Jiangnan University, and the lower left corner read "Students Union Literature and Art". Ministry of Production".
Li Chenguang has no interest in these arts.
Isn't it just to watch some performances, and you won't gain an extra pound?
"We are a polytechnic university, so the past is inappropriate."
"It's okay. It's just a cultural performance we organized. It's crowded and lively. Just watch a performance, eat at the buffet, and have a lot of fun."
"Eat something... self-service," Li Chenguang's heart moved, "Is it the casual kind?"
"certainly."
"Isn't this good? I'm so embarrassed."
Li Chenguang put a card into his pocket with one hand and handed it to Gardenia Wei with the other.
Gardenia took a look at Li Chenguang and took it.
Li Chenguang accepted the card and was immediately bribed by Leng Guansheng.
Of course, he had no intention of snitching.
The two were talking and laughing during the meal.
Next to them, Gardenia and Yao Jing also leaned their heads and chatted for a while.
However, the conversation between the two people ended quickly.
The reason is that after the two parties reported each other's names.
Yao Jing showed a somewhat surprised look, "You guys set off at around 9 o'clock. Why did you arrive so late? Did you take the mountain road?"
Gardenia smiled, "Yes, I came here on the mountain road."
Yao Jing was puzzled, "Why not take the cable car? Walking on the mountain road is so tiring. I'm also wearing high heels. Walking on the mountain road will definitely make me miserable."
Gardenia smiled, "Just treat it as exercise."
Yao Jing's beautiful face showed an exaggerated expression, and she opened her mouth wide, "This is not exercising. Isn't this just torturing yourself? Why do girls need to exercise?"
Gardenia smiled and said, "It's good to exercise every day."
Yao Jing shook her head, moved closer to Gardenia, and whispered, "It's easier to go out with a considerate boy. Someone actually takes a girl on a date to go hiking. I definitely can't do it. I just think about my legs." It’s all going to break.”
Gardenia paused and just stared at Yao Jing without speaking.
His little face also darkened.
After thinking for a while, he continued to smile and said, "By the way, what did you ask just now?"
"what?"
"That's the last question I asked."
"Which sentence? Why do girls exercise? That sentence?"
"Well," Gardenia stared at her and replied, "I think it's to run faster when being chased and beaten by other girls."
"Why are you being chased and beaten by other girls?" Yao Jing looked a little embarrassed.
"……I do not know."
Gardenia answered with a smile.
Then the two of them stopped talking to each other.
The topic was brought to an end.
On the contrary, Li Chenguang and Leng Guansheng had lunch together in a peaceful atmosphere.
Leng Guansheng believed that the other party was a man who knew current affairs, was short-tongued and soft-handed, and Li Chenguang knew what to do.
After eating, a few of them strolled around Hanshan Temple.
We visited some famous places together.
Including the Hongfa Hall, Luohan Hall, Zhang's Chamber, and also strolled around the small forest behind the temple and visited the stele corridor, which are all calligraphy works of famous ancient masters.
Most of them are words of praise for Hanshan Temple.
It's about learning how to put money on your face.
Because Leng Guansheng had work in the afternoon, he and Yao Jing left first.
Li Chenguang and Gardenia were left to continue shopping.
"Aguang, why don't you go to the student union?"
"Let's not go. Anyway, we have to leave this secret realm sooner or later. Why bother doing that?"
"Aguang doesn't want to find a beautiful girl from Dahun to be his wife?"
"..."
Li Chenguang took a breath of air and stared at Gardenia Wei in surprise.
No matter what, it was still very embarrassing for an exquisite beauty to say such words in front of her.
"Why do you know, oh yes, I should have told you not to say such things in public. It would be bad to be heard."
"Why? It's not normal for a man to marry a woman. A Guang is also a boy, so of course he wants to marry a wife. I think it's a normal need."
Li Chenguang leaned over and blocked the wind with one hand and said, "... Then don't say it in public. It's so embarrassing. Let's go back and say it quietly."
"Oh, indeed, a bit shy."
Gardenia said, showing a bit of envy, "But I think that is a very beautiful thing."
"I know."
Li Chenguang smiled mischievously, "Gardenia wants to get married, right?"
"No, I don't want to get married."
"Then I want to find a boyfriend."
"I won't find a boyfriend either."
Gardenia shook her head seriously and stared at Li Chenguang seriously, as if no objection was allowed on this topic.
This confused Li Chenguang, but he always felt that Gardenia's eyes were complicated when she said this, and the atmosphere was a bit heavy.
He could only open up the atmosphere with a joke, "I know, other men can't do it, only me can do it, right?"
Gardenia replied angrily, "Aguang, if you keep talking such nonsense, I won't introduce you to beautiful Hungarian beauties in the future."
"...You still arrange marriages."
Li Chenguang was really moved.
If this is not considered an angel, then what is.
He could not wait to pick up Gardenia and give her a good kiss.
"Also, after all, A Guang is a big pervert, why is it restricted to Da Hung?"
"It doesn't have to be a big one. I think long legs, long black hair, and a petite one are also very good."
Gardenia stared at him with a look of distrust, "If you say this, I feel that A Guang is even more perverted."
"..."
While talking, the two came to the Zen room of Hanshan Temple.
It turned out that it was getting late, the sun was setting on the west mountain, and the clouds were reflected in the red clouds. They were both ready to go down the mountain.
It’s not easy to walk on mountain roads when it’s dark.
Most people were also ready to leave.
However, I suddenly found that the Zen room was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, red lanterns were posted outside, and the word "happiness" was posted on the door and wall.
There are also betrothal gifts left and right inside.
There are two monks standing guard at the door.
There is also a couple, dressed in groom's and bride's clothes, sitting on a bench next to them, waiting.
Li Chenguang was shocked, "Is there really an arranged marriage here?"
Gardenia stretched out her little hand and pointed to the wooden sign standing next to it, "It seems to be some kind of activity."
Li Chenguang walked over and took a look. It read, "Carry forward the new trend of civilization and paint a picture of happiness together. It is called summer because of the great etiquette, and it is called Hua because of the beauty of the uniform."
There is also a QR code sign next to it, which reads, "Experience traditional wedding ceremonies and protect the beauty of China."
"It seems to be a place where boys and girls can go in and experience marriage."
As soon as Li Chenguang finished speaking, he saw a pair of boys holding hands and wearing red makeup, sitting on the stool next to them and waiting. He had to correct him, "I am narrow-minded. There is no gender restriction here."
“There is actually a place to experience a wedding.”
Gardenia blinked in surprise and looked into the courtyard of the Zen room. She could vaguely see two newlyweds having a wedding ceremony under the auspices of a monk.
What Li Chengguang is concerned about is the price written under the brand, "No matter what, 888 yuan for one experience is too expensive. It's a money grab."
"Maybe it's because the procedure is very complicated. As far as I know, in previous Han marriages, the couple had to wash their hands together, eat meat, drink wine, get the marriage certificate and many other meaningful rituals."
It’s not like now, when complexity is reduced to simplicity, only the following remains.
"How much is the bride price?"
"500000!"
"Where's the garage?"
"180 square meters of commercial housing, BMW 7 series car."
"Okay, it's done. Let's choose an auspicious day to book a place."
"It's all been handed over to the wedding hotel."
"readily!"
Nowadays, people live in a fast pace, get married quickly, and get divorced even faster.
Unlike in ancient times, it was generally emphasized that when you marry a chicken, you will follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, you will follow the dog. You will live in different quilts and die in the same acupuncture point.
It's hard to leave after getting married.
"let's go."
Li Chenguang has no interest in this.
However, Gardenia went to the red line in front of the door and peeked inside, as if she wanted to see more clearly what the wedding of the bride and groom looked like.
Looking in from the outside and across the courtyard, you can still see the scene of the newlyweds worshiping each other inside.
She looked so envious.
"Gardenia, let's go. What's so good about this? They're all here to deceive ignorant girls and make money. I've read the rules. They rent a set of clothes for two people to wear for 800."
Only idiots are fooled.
"okay."
"Go and pull."
"Well, here we come."
Gardenia looked back three times every step of the way, frequently looking back at the wedding in the yard.
As the two stood at the door, they could still hear the sound of festive gongs and drums.
The two newlyweds waiting at the door also looked expectant and excited.
She thought, maybe this is what getting married feels like.
Of course, the bride's appearance in gold, silver, and red wedding robes must have no connection with him.
She just heard that that day was the most beautiful and happiest moment in any woman's life. She didn't know what it felt like. Maybe it was like a princess in a fairy tale, holding the hand of a handsome prince in the spotlight. It feels like your whole body is radiating as brightly as jewels.
Just like the woman in the Zen room, she looks so happy.
Gardenia was affected and couldn't help but smile a little. She felt that just watching was good enough.
Gardenia reluctantly looked back, "Aguang, it's very late. We should go down the mountain."
Looking to the right, he found that Li Chenguang was not there.
Not even in front
"Hey, Aguang."
Turning around, he found Li Chenguang standing in front of the QR code scanning the code behind him.
"Hey, great monk, you'd better get your money's worth, don't just trick tourists who come up the mountain and deceive ignorant girls."
I used Huabei to scan this.
Well, I'm the idiot who got scammed.
The big monk sitting next to collect the money, like a Maitreya Buddha, smiled and replied, "The donor will know after trying it that it is definitely worth the money. The poor monk never lies."
"If it's not worth it, can I get my money back?"
The old monk turned the sign next to it upside down, and wrote on the back "Nothing can be deceived, quality is guaranteed. Once the code is scanned, no refund will be given" in 16 large characters.
"you are vicious."
Li Chenguang then waved to Gardenia.
He said happily, "Gardenia, we will be here soon."
