Chen Man added two people on WeChat and chatted as they walked.
First, we walked along the main road for a while, and then walked up the mountain along a road.
Chen Man once walked this road with Zhang Xiaona when they were picking chestnuts.
"Oh, I haven't breathed such fresh air in a long time. It's still better in the mountains, there is no pollution." Xia Meng sighed after taking a breath.
"When I don't want to stay in the city anymore, I'll go home and grow vegetables and flowers." Hua Chunya panted and looked up at the top of the high mountain. It would probably take another half an hour to climb up.
Chen Man was also out of breath. She didn't know how long she had to walk or where the place of worship was.
Phew, still lack of exercise.
"Forget it, let's not chase them. Let's just walk slowly by ourselves. It's too tiring." Xia Meng stopped and stood there with her hands on her hips, panting.
There is a stone road under your feet and lush woods all around.
Chen Man was thinking the same thing. The three men in the lead didn't seem to feel tired at all, especially Xu Junyang, who was carrying a large backpack full of things, which looked quite heavy.
My eyes moved from his back to his legs. I had never seen him wearing jeans and sneakers before, so I thought he didn't have them.
"Chen Man, are you good at photography?" Hua Chunya asked her.
Chen Man: "I've learned it, but I'm not sure if it's good or not, haha."
"Please take a picture for me."
Hua Chunya handed her the phone, then took it back. "Oh, just borrow your phone to take a couple of pictures for me. I can send them to WeChat later. Maybe other people's phones don't work as well as mine."
Chen Man took out her phone from her pocket and said, "Okay, but I don't think you'll be satisfied with the photos I take."
"Of course it's good, definitely better than my husband's."
It was indeed much easier to walk while taking photos along the way.
"Hey, Chen Man, just stand there. This angle is great. I'll take a picture for you." Hua Chunya stood below Chen Man and she walked at the end.
Xia Meng took two steps back and looked at Hua Chunya's phone.
"Hey, this angle is good."
Chen Man stood there, not knowing what pose to take. She just stood there obediently, forcing a sweet smile on her face.
The three men also slowed down their pace and waited patiently without saying a word to urge them.
Xu Junyang turned around and looked at the few people.
Hua Chunya took advantage of this moment and quickly pressed the camera button, framing Chen Man and Xu Junyang behind her together.
Then he quickly adjusted the lens and took a few photos of Chen Man alone.
"I've taken the photo. I'll send it to you when I get back. The signal here isn't very good."
"Okay, thank you, hehe."
It took a lot of effort to climb to the top of the mountain.
Standing on the top of a high mountain and looking around, you can see the mountains rolling and extending infinitely, like a maze, with no way out in these mountains.
Here dark clouds cover the sun, while in the distance light shines on the earth.
Several people took out their mobile phones to take pictures tacitly.
We then passed through a small forest full of fir and pine trees.
Finally, we arrived at a huge rock that was slanted into the ground, forming a natural shelter. It was surrounded by towering cypress trees, all hung with red ribbons.
The people of Yuren Village once carried bricks and cement and built a roof under the big rock. Under the roof was a small shrine with a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva on it.
There are a lot of burnt paper ashes and incense sticks in front of the shrine, as well as offered fruits and wine cups.
Xu Helian carefully took Xu Junyang's backpack and placed it on the ground. Xu Junyang shrugged his shoulders twice to relax.
Xu Helian took out things one by one from the backpack.
Chen Man took her bag and observed from the side. She had no idea what to do.
Xu Helian took out a basin from his backpack, covered with a large white cloth.
Xia Meng took it and placed it in front of the shrine.
Chen Man wondered if all the razor blades of wealthy people were this big? Hers was only the size of a bowl. Wasn't it a bit embarrassing?
However, the next second Xia Meng took off the white cloth, revealing a big, fat white pig's head with its tail biting in its mouth.
Chen Man was startled and took a step back, stepping on Xu Junyang's foot.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." She apologized quickly.
Xu Junyang supported her, "It's okay. Are you scared?"
"Haha, no, it's just the first time I see you." Chen Man didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the Bodhisattva.
He also took out a lot of incense and paper, a bottle of wine, a wine glass, and several large circles of firecrackers from the backpack.
"Come here, each of you give some paper money, and everyone burn some for the Buddha."
Xia Meng distributed the paper to everyone in her family.
"Chen Man, you should put your things out too."
"Oh, okay." Chen Man placed the knife blades and fruits she brought with her in front of the shrine.
The place is too small and can only accommodate two people.
Chen Man waited behind, while Xia Meng and Xu Helian tore up the papers in their hands one by one and threw them into the basin to burn.
Next came Xu Zhengxi and Hua Chunya.
Chen Man saw Xu Helian dismantling the firecrackers he brought and walking on the empty road.
After Xu Zhengxi and Hua Chunya finished cooking, it was Chen Man and Xu Junyang's turn.
Chen Man tore up the banknotes one by one and threw them into the basin. As they burned, she kept muttering in her heart: I pray to the Buddha to bless my grandma with good health.
The sound of firecrackers rang out, the strong smell of gunpowder mixed with the smell of incense, and the smoke filled the air, making this small hill full of mystery.
Xu Junyang glanced at the person next to him and saw that she was seriously tearing up paper money to burn.
He burned the paper money in his hand to the Buddha, and silently prayed in his heart: I hope my family is healthy.
He did not ask the Bodhisattva to bless him to marry the girl of his dreams as soon as possible, because he knew that there are some things that cannot be asked of the Bodhisattva. If they are not in love with each other, it will only make things difficult for the Bodhisattva.
