Chapter 831 Cause and Effect
The round-faced girl was just rolling around in the mud, and Lu Chaochao took a step back in disgust.
The girl climbed up covered in mud and smiled innocently.
"Playing in the mud? You are such a grown-up girl, you can't play in the mud. People will laugh at you."
She touched her cheek and found ten finger marks on it again: "Oh. Why is my face still so big... Never mind. God is unreliable."
The little girl smiled innocently: "My name is Yuan'er, what's your name, sister?"
Lu Chaochao pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, and said with a chuckle: "Just call me Zhaoyang."
"Sister Zhaoyang..." The little girl was about twelve or thirteen years old. She seemed to be ignorant of the world and very naive.
At this moment, the people who were praying knelt on the ground one after another: "It must be the Savior who appeared. It must be the Savior who appeared."
"My son is saved, he is saved, thank you so much, the Savior has appeared."
"If the child can recover, I will kneel down three times and kowtow nine times to express my gratitude to Kunlun. Thank you, savior..." The man cried and kowtowed to the girl in white in front of him.
The girl dodged suddenly, and the surprise in her eyes could not be hidden.
At that moment, she seemed to feel the breath of the coming of the savior.
Lu Chaochao stood quietly on both sides of the road. She was clearly standing in the bustling city, yet she was detached from everything and had a feeling of being adrift.
"Hey, do you think the goddess is really still alive?"
"Every year, countless people go to Kunlun to kowtow three times and nine times, praying that the heavens will share their good fortune with the little goddess... After attending my sister's wedding banquet, I will also go to pay my respects."
Lu Chaochao looked at her in confusion, and Yuan'er said, "It's the legend of Kunlun Mountain."
"I heard that if you bow three times and kowtow nine times to Kunlun, you can move the heavens and make an exchange with them."
"Dedicate your own luck to the little goddess, and you can change your fate."
"Of course, this is just a legend. No one knows whether it is true or not." Xiao Yuaner waved his hand, but in his heart he had longed to visit Kunlun.
Lu Chaochao was slightly surprised: "Are there many people worshipping?"
Yuan'er covered his mouth and laughed, then took her hand and walked towards the steps on the side of the mountain.
The steps were a bit high, but Lu Chaochao was in great physical strength and quickly climbed up the mountain with Yuan'er. "Look into the distance..."
Vaguely one can see people kneeling in the distance, each movement is standard and pious, for they are afraid of making mistakes and losing their good fortune.
There were men and daughters, old people, young people, and children.
"I don't know if the legend is true or not. It's tens of thousands of miles to Kunlun. I'm afraid it will take several years, right?"
"Isn't it stupid to lose one's life just for a legend?" Lu Chaochao frowned, but there was a trace of bitterness in his heart.
Yuan Er pouted and frowned: "That's not nonsense, how can it be stupid? That's the power of faith!"
"You just came down the mountain. I don't blame you, but don't say that again."
"Do you have any relatives living down the mountain?" Yuan'er asked again.
Lu Chaochao shook her head: "There must be relatives, but... my mind is a blur, and it will probably take some time for me to remember." Her memory was like being covered by a layer of fog, looming.
This may have something to do with her state of mind.
"Sister Zhaoyang, you are so beautiful. If you were alone, you would be in danger. Look around, many people are staring at you..."
"How about you go to the wedding with me?"
Lu Chaochao looked at her between the eyebrows and said, "You don't have any sisters or brothers, so where does your sister come from?"
The little girl was stunned: "Wow, you can also read faces? That's amazing!"
"I really don't have any brothers or sisters. I am the only one in the mansion."
"She is the daughter of my wet nurse, and we are like sisters. After my wet nurse died, she served me. Later, she said she had met her true love..."
"I also gave her a lot of money so that she could marry in style."
"Who knew that the other party wanted to go back to his hometown to hold the wedding."
"Daddy will be returning to Beijing to report on his work soon, and he asked me to learn the rules at home and not to go out. I sneaked out hehe...it's just right for us to keep each other company." Yuan'er was not afraid of strangers, and walked up to her and took her arm.
Yuan'er's eyes were clear and he had no bad intentions. Of course, Lu Chaochao was not afraid of bad intentions either.
More deeply, Lu Chaochao saw a hint of his own cause and effect in her.
"My father is very strict, but I can't blame him. He was old when he had a daughter. When I had a cold and couldn't take medicine, he cried louder than I did."
"I lost my mother when I was young, and I was very dependent on my father. I also heard from my nanny that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, so I was very afraid of having a stepmother. My father has never remarried in these years."
"Later, when I was older and more sensible, I didn't want my father to come home alone every day with no one to comfort him, so I even begged him to find a stepmother. But he refused..."
The little girl was mumbling something. She was wearing coarse linen clothes, which seemed to have been changed on purpose.
"Let's go quickly and don't miss the auspicious time. I left a letter at home and will go home tomorrow..."
Lu Chaochao looked at her indifferently. The little girl's breath was jumping back and forth between life and death. This time, she was afraid that she would be in great danger.
She extended her index finger and lightly touched the other person's forehead.
Memories came flooding back.
At that time, she seemed to be only one or two years old, wearing bright red clothes, and looked as festive as the little girl under the seat of Guanyin.
"My wife and I have been married for ten years without any children. I heard that you gave the eldest princess a pair of twins. I wonder if we will be so blessed to be surrounded by children?"
"I don't ask for twins, but as long as you can have a son or a daughter, you'll be lucky. I will definitely treat her well and never let her suffer any grievance in my home." The man who spoke held her in his arms with a gentle look on his face.
Lu Chaochao, who was about two or three years old, had a mouth full of candy and shouted, "Shengshengsheng..."
Memories flooded back, and Lu Chaochao couldn't help but chuckle.
It turned out to be the child that he had given me.
"Your fingertips are a little hot... Oh, why did she marry to such a remote place..."
"I have been without a mother since I was a child. I grew up with her and I just want to send her off."
"I can't even find this place..."
Xiao Yuaner asked for directions with the address she left behind. He climbed over the mountain, waded across the stream, and walked through a deep mountain road before he saw the village.
At this moment, the sky has darkened and the sun has set.
Xiao Yuan'er was wiping her sweat dejectedly: "If I had known earlier, I should have brought two servants." Seeing this place surrounded by mountains, she secretly groaned in her heart and inexplicably wanted to back out.
"Sister Zhaoyang, how about... let's go back..."
"This place..." It's too remote, making her feel uneasy.
How did Lanzhi get married here?
Just as he was about to turn around holding Lu Chaochao, he heard a voice from afar: "Is this Miss Yuanjun? Lanzhi asked me to wait here for three days, and finally you've arrived." The honest and simple woman came out of the woods, looking quite embarrassed.
Yuanjun paused, a hint of hesitation flashed across her face, but the woman stepped forward and quickly supported her: "You must have suffered all the way here, right?"
