Chapter 26 That’s probably Buddha punishing me.
Cheng Luanxin blushed: "I'm not a kitten or a puppy!"
Song Qiuchi: "Me neither."
Cheng Luanxin defended herself: "I was just kidding you, wasn't I? But you've already done it!"
Song Qiuchi frowned: "Don't make me sound lecherous."
Cheng Luanxin: "Aren't you? Who would do such an ambiguous thing..."
Song Qiuchi didn't want to argue with her any longer and stood up quickly: "Alright, get up, Du Zhiruo and the others are still waiting."
Cheng Luan reluctantly reached out her hand: "I don't dare to move, pull me up."
Song Qiuchi asked back, "Who would do something so ambiguous?"
Cheng Luanxin stared at Song Qiuchi with her eyes wide open for a long time. Seeing that she really had no intention of helping, she had to support herself and get up from the ground.
Song Qiuchi watched her from the side and said, "Try to see if you can walk."
Cheng Luanxin glanced at Song Qiuchi and tentatively put her foot on the ground. After taking two steps, she found that the cramps had indeed stopped and a smile appeared on her face: "Song Qiuchi, it's better!"
"Okay, go down now."
The two of them went around a spiral ladder and soon caught up with Du Zhiruo and the three photographers.
The ladder was steep and there were no extra stone slabs around it. The four people sat in the middle of the ladder, lined up one above the other, looking shabby and pitiful.
Du Zhiruo was the first to stand up from the stone steps: "Are you guys back?"
The barrage is almost dying of anxiety:
"I'm finally back. This is the first time I've seen a host run away in the middle of a live broadcast."
"So what on earth are Qiu Chi and Luan Xin doing? I'm so curious!!"
"Don't ask, just ask."
Cheng Luanxin scratched her head a little embarrassedly: "Sorry to have kept you all waiting. I promise that from now on I will never leave your sight again. Let's start again?"
Du Zhiruo nodded: "Let's go. When we get to the bottom of the valley, let's take some more photos and share them on Weibo."
The rest of the journey was very smooth, and twenty minutes later, the three of them reached the bottom of the valley.
Over an hour had passed since the start of the hike, and for the three of them, who rarely exercised, they were already exhausted. They spread out their specially purchased moisture-proof tablecloths along the banks of Wanxi Creek, along with their water bottles and a few packets of compressed biscuits. After posing for a few rather flimsy picnic photos, they each leaned against a tree and began editing their images.
The cameraman felt the atmosphere was too quiet and couldn't help but suggest, "Teachers, I think we can chat while we edit the photos."
Cheng Luanxin didn't even look up: "You don't understand this. Girls are completely focused when they are editing photos. They are so focused that they don't have the energy to chat."
The photographer had nothing to say and had to shut up.
Barrage:
"Hahahahaha, is Akiike so real?"
"+1, I really don't have time to chat while I'm editing photos."
"Other groups are working hard to get rose tokens, but these three are the only ones who are so confident as to show us silent movies."

After posting the fan benefits on Weibo, the three of them regrouped and headed towards the next check-in spot, Xushan Temple.
Xushan Temple, located halfway up Xufeng Mountain, is a famous, thousand-year-old temple in the Mengshan Scenic Area. It's said that praying for fortunes there is highly effective.
Before entering the temple, you can already smell the heavy aroma of incense.
Cheng Luanxin: "Wow, I really like this smell. Is this sandalwood? It makes me feel so peaceful."
Song Qiuchi glanced at her indifferently and said nothing.
Du Zhiruo stood in the middle of the courtyard and looked around: "Who are these halls dedicated to?"
Cheng Luanxin: "I don't know. Since we're here, why don't we pay our respects to everyone?"
As she spoke, she was about to walk into the main hall.
Song Qiuchi grabbed her and said, "Think carefully. If your wish is successful, you will have to come back to fulfill it. Are you willing to climb such a long mountain again to fulfill your wish?"
Cheng Luan's heart softened. "No more worship, no more worship. I'll just stand at the door and pay my respects."
She was afraid of being seen by the Buddha statue and didn't even dare to approach the temple door.
Du Zhiruo smiled: "Then I will go in and pray for my mother's good health."
After Du Zhiruo entered the main hall, Song Qiuchi slowly approached Cheng Luanxin and whispered, "Wait here for me. I'll go ask if there's any ritual I can do today. Maybe it will be effective."
Cheng Luanxin's eyes lit up: "Really? I'll go with you!"
Song Qiuchi: "I'll go ask myself. It would be too deliberate to go together. If Du Zhiruo comes out later, it won't be good if no one is here."
Cheng Luanxin said sourly: "You usually seem cold and indifferent, but this is because you care about Zhiruo to death."
Song Qiuchi was too lazy to argue with her: "I'm leaving, find a place to rest for a while."
Cheng Luanxin naturally couldn't sit still. She strolled around the temple and saw a prayer wall on the west side of the main hall, which was covered with red prayer boards.
Several tourists were queuing up to receive prayer boards from the monks and carefully writing down their wishes on the boards.
Cheng Luanxin looked at it with envy. She said to the camera: "Do I have to fulfill my wish after making a wish here? But I also want to write one. Can't I write a wish that will never come true?"
Barrage:
"I'm dying of laughter. This is the first time I've seen someone not wanting their wish to come true."
"Qiuchi, let's not embarrass the Buddha."
"So what wish do you want to make, Akichi?"
In just a short while, Cheng Luanxin had successfully convinced herself to queue up behind the tourists.
Taking the prayer board from the monk, Cheng Luanxin continued to mutter, "I think I should pray seriously, otherwise it would be too disrespectful to the Buddha. At worst, I can just come again..."
The photographer wanted to get closer to take a picture, but Cheng Luanxin quickly covered his mouth and said, "Don't take pictures, don't take pictures. If you take pictures, it won't work. If you have nothing to do, go get a badge."
Photographer: “…”
Cheng Luanxin held the prayer card and did not start writing.
The most pressing wish at the moment is undoubtedly to exchange bodies with Song Qiuchi as soon as possible, but how should I write it?
If you honestly write down the two people's names and what you pray for, and other tourists see it, take a photo and post it online, you will be in trouble.
But if it is not written clearly, Buddha may not be able to help.
Cheng Luanxin thought about it for a while, grabbed the marker, and wrote down the words "I wish Song Qiuchi and Cheng Luanxin good health."
Although it is still a bit obscure, Buddha should be able to understand it, right?
Cheng Luanxin tied this simple wish with a red string and hung it on the prayer wall. She clasped her hands together and bowed, then turned to the photographer and said, "Let's go back."
In the courtyard, Du Zhiruo had already finished burning incense and came out.
She came up to him with a smile and said, "Where have you and Luanxin gone? I've been looking for you for a long time but haven't seen you."
Cheng Luanxin thought, "Cheng Luanxin went to ask if there was any ritual going on. I was just looking around here. There's a red prayer wall over there. It's really beautiful. I made a wish there too. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Du Zhiruo's expression became a little strange: "You made a wish too?"
Cheng Luanxin nodded: "Yes, it's just a small wish. Do you want to make a wish too?"
Du Zhiruo hesitated and said, "But... I just heard... that red wall is the marriage wall..."
Cheng Luanxin's expression became dull for a moment: "Huh?"
Du Zhiruo asked uncertainly, "Are you seeking a marriage?"
Cheng Luanxin was horrified. "No! Oh my god, what should I do? I wrote this to pray for the health of me and Cheng Luanxin."
The guy filming nearby was also dumbfounded: "I wrote to bless my sister to get into a good university. Wouldn't the Buddha think that I was asking for a marriage between me and my sister?!"
Du Zhiruo: “…”
Barrage:
"Haha ...
"The camera guy is also very funny, hahahahahahahahahaha"
"Chi Xin's secret love is confirmed. I wish you both good health and many children."
"Is this really what's written? Then why are you hiding it?"

The more Cheng Luan thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong: "No, no, I have to take it down. I hope the Buddha hasn't seen what I wrote yet."
Du Zhiruo blinked: "Don't you want a marriage with Cheng Luanxin?"
Of course! Who would want a marriage with Song Qiuchi?! Of course, she couldn't say that in front of the camera. Cheng Luan said confidently, "These are two different things! Think about it, the Buddha has to deal with so many things every day, and the ones he hates most are definitely people like us who don't read the questions. If the Buddha blacklists us, then won't my prayers be answered in the future?"
The photographer got anxious when he heard this: "Then let's take it off quickly!"
Du Zhiruo: “…”
A few people ran to the marriage wall and took a closer look, and found that every wish board was indeed written with content related to love.
Cheng Luanxin was busy searching around: "Hey, where is it? I remember I was hanging around here?"
The photographer on the side exclaimed: "I found it!"
Cheng Luan was confused: "I was hanging not far from yours, why is mine gone?"
At this time, the monk in charge came over and asked: "Donor, what are you looking for?"
Cheng Luanxin hurriedly said, "Hello, hello, um, the sign I just put up had the wrong content written on it, but now I can't find it."
The monk explained, "They may have been chosen for blessing. Every day we randomly select a number of prayer tablets to be consecrated and blessed in the main hall. We just sent a batch. You are so lucky."
Cheng Luanxin: "..."
This was all over. This had been sent directly to the Buddha. How would the Buddha punish someone who didn't read the questions? Would he punish her by making her fall in love with Song Qiuchi?
Her legs went limp, she became dejected, and sat on the bench in a daze.
At this time, Song Qiuchi also returned. She frowned and walked towards Cheng Luanxin: "It's not possible today. We came too late and the ritual has already ended... Why do you look like that?"
Cheng Luanxin looked up pitifully: "Cheng Luanxin, if you suddenly feel that you love me very much recently, please don't mind it. It's probably the Buddha punishing me."
