The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 34 He also came... to seek marriage?

Xia Yu had almost eaten up all the offerings that people had presented to the God of Land. The God of Land looked very distressed, but he could only let Xia Yu and Li Jian eat and dominate.

"Land, there was an auntie who was wearing a green shirt and carrying a black leather bag and looked very rich. What did she ask you for?" Xia Yu asked casually while biting a big red apple in his hand.

The Earth God thought for a moment and continued, "She said that her grandson Yang Heng... fell in love with her daughter Yang Jing, and she hoped that I could help... her son and daughter, so that their marriage could return to the right path."

"Is there such a thing?" Li Jian was very surprised. This area was under his jurisdiction...

"Second Brother, don't you know?" Xia Yu swallowed a bite of the apple, then turned to Li Jian and asked doubtfully, "Shouldn't it be?"

"I'm usually too busy..." Li Jian saw Xia Yu and the God of Land looking suspicious, and quickly explained, "Maybe I was busy helping them matchmake, and I didn't notice the problem in her family."

"But why are her grandson and her daughter entangled with each other?" Li Jian's question seemed to be a deliberate question.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu subconsciously put the blame on herself and replied with some self-blame: "One day, I took a nap under the marriage tree. The wind blew, and a few of the marriage threads on the marriage tree were messed up. The marriages of six pairs of destined people were affected. I came to the mortal world this time to save their marriages."

"So, I must help that aunt and save the marriage between her son and her daughter." After Xia Yu said this, he spread out his palms, and among the two remaining red threads, one indeed belonged to Yang Heng.

Yang Heng’s destined person is called Fu Jinyi. As long as they can be together, Yang Jing should stop having these weird thoughts, right?
After eating the offerings, the God of Land sat on the sofa, leaning on his cane. He looked up at Xia Yu's aggrieved face and asked, "You have been on earth for some time. How many couples have you saved?"

Xia Yu counted on his fingers and said, "Four pairs! There are still two pairs left. However, it seems that this fourth pair is not clearly together yet, so I don't know if it counts."

"How about this, Junior Sister." Li Jian put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Aren't you still short of two pairs of destined people? I'll help you with Yang Heng, and you go find another pair of destined people! Complete the task as soon as possible, so that you can return to heaven as soon as possible. If the master wakes up and finds that you are not here, and the marriage tree is unattended, you will be punished again."

"Second Brother..." Xia Yu was deeply moved and gave Li Jian a big hug, saying with a smile, "You are so nice! Thank you, Second Brother!"

"What about me?" The God of Land suddenly asked Xia Yu in a childish tone.

what……

You're so old, and you're still jealous?
"Ah...thank you too, God of Land." Xia Yu rubbed God of Land's shoulders flatteringly and said with a smile, "Since I came to the mortal world, I have been grateful for God of Land's help. Don't worry! After returning to heaven, I will help you convey every word you ask me to convey to Master."

After hearing this, the land god turned around and looked at Xia Yu proudly: "That's more like it."

……

As the three were talking, a young man walked into the [Land God Temple] and knelt devoutly in front of the statue of the land god.

It's already five or six in the afternoon. Who would come to worship the God of Land?

When the God of Land saw that the young man was making a wish, he quickly let his real body return to the statue.

Xia Yu and Li Jian watched quietly, and suddenly recognized the kneeling person at a glance.

"Luo Fan?" Xia Yu was greatly surprised.

"He's here to seek marriage, too?" Li Jian asked Xia Yu in confusion, "As far as I know, he doesn't live close to here, right?"

It is impossible for Luo Fan to come all the way to worship the God of Land and say that it has nothing to do with Xia Yu.

Xia Yu recalled that since she told Luo Fan her identity, even the God of Land was exposed.

One day, Luo Fan asked her if her grandfather was also a god in heaven.

She was just being rude and replied: He is just the land god, not my real grandfather.

Luo Fan placed the offerings he brought on the incense table, and after burning incense, he closed his eyes and began to make a wish silently in his heart. "Land God." Xia Yu stood beside Luo Fan invisibly, raised his head and asked the statue of the God of Land: "What did he wish for?"

"It's either getting rich or finding love!" Li Jian answered on behalf of the God of Land.

The real body of the God of Land looked at Xia Yu happily and said with a smile: "No, no. This young man just came here specially... to wish this immortal a happy birthday."

"Really?" Xia Yu looked down at Luo Fan: He came all the way here just to wish the God of Land a happy birthday?

"Junior sister?" Li Jian shook Xia Yu's eyes with his hand. "What's with that expression on your face? You look... a little disappointed?"

"How could that be?" Xia Yu denied it flatly.

"You are not..." Li Jian looked at Luo Fan intentionally or unintentionally, and asked jokingly: "...have you fallen in love with a mortal?"

"How is that possible?" Xia Yu shook his head and said, "Second Brother, you really think too much!"

After bowing, Luo Fan observed the Earth Temple with some curiosity, then rode away on his recently purchased bicycle.

"If you like me, don't cover your face..." Xia Yu's cell phone rang again.

Opening the phone, Xia Yu saw the caller was Luo Fan, and answered the call immediately: "Hello..."

"Today is the birthday of the God of Land. I went to the [Tudi Temple] you mentioned to pay my respects. I thought... I might bump into you!"

"Uh... maybe I missed it?" Xia Yu said, thinking: Yes, you met me, and I was watching you right beside you!
Missed it?
Luo Fan seemed a little unconvinced, and smiled and said, "Haha... I thought... you lived in that [Tudi Temple]!"

Is it necessary to guess so accurately?
"Um...no..." Xia Yu wanted to make an excuse, but Luo Fan didn't give her a chance.

"Today Zhou Hai accompanied Meng Xiaodong to the crew for an audition, and it seems that the two of them are officially dating. They decided to treat us to dinner tomorrow afternoon, and the location will be the hot pot restaurant we used to go to. Will you come?" Luo Fan asked tentatively, afraid that Xia Yu would not go.

Are you officially dating?
What a great thing! Of course I have to go.

She had been worried that the couple wouldn’t be a success!

"Of course I will go." Xia Yu agreed immediately.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we meet. I'm driving, so I'll hang up now."

"Yeah." Xia Yu responded and hung up the phone, and found that the God of Land and Li Jian were looking at her as if they were 'interrogating a prisoner'.

God of Land: "When did he know your identity?"

Li Jian: "You actually exposed your identity?"

"I..." Xia Yu knew that he was wrong and didn't dare to quibble. He admitted: "I couldn't help but tell him my identity. However, he is my first friend in the mortal world. I believe he won't betray me."

The God of Land looked at Xia Yu as if he had suddenly realized something, and said sadly: "It turns out that the first friend...is not me."

Come on, is that the point now?

"Junior sister." Li Jian said with a little concern: "People's hearts are unpredictable, you must not trust others easily. Moreover, it is against the rules of heaven for a god to reveal his identity in the mortal world."

"I know I was wrong..." Xia Yu looked at Li Jian pitifully and begged, "Second Brother, you must keep this secret for me!"
