The trail became extremely difficult to walk on due to the rain, and my shoes were all muddy, but fortunately there were many trees nearby, which blocked some of the rain. I don't know how long I walked, but the road gradually became slightly wider, and transparent sheds were placed on the trunks of the trees.

The system also said: "Host, you have arrived at the back mountain farm."

Xu Yan and the other three walked for a few more minutes, and gradually became cheerful. They found that the path they were walking on was just a small path in the vegetable garden. The vegetable garden was quite large because this piece of land was spliced ​​with the tea garden. So it was very big. At this time, the rain gradually became much lighter.

It seems that tourists can also enter this area, because there is a wooden sign on the ground: "Temple, please go this way."

The four of them looked at the wooden sign and walked in the direction of the arrow and exited the vegetable garden. The garden was surrounded by a wooden fence and the gate was also made of wooden boards.

Pushing open the wooden door, the bricks on the road became slippery and wet due to the rain, and several people walked out in small steps. The temple is quite large, and when they met temple staff on the way, they nodded to each other. Of course, if the monk didn't have an Apple phone in his hand, it would definitely be very artistic.

There are many rooms in the temple, where Bodhisattvas and the Four Heavenly Kings are enshrined.

However, this was not the real reason why Xu Yan and the other three came here. The reason they came to Lishan was because they heard that the fortune-telling stall in front of the mountain temple was very famous. When they walked out of the gate, they saw a large open space in front of the temple where the stall was set up.

Even though it had just rained heavily, the stall still stood there as steady as a rock, and the fortune teller was sitting on a bench wearing a raincoat. There were quite a lot of people, and there was a long line in front of the stall, almost reaching the road up the mountain.

Xu Yan looked at the huge crowd, thought for a moment and said, "How about we go in and take a look first?"

The other three people also thought it was feasible. It was troublesome to wait here, so they might as well go in when there was no one inside. They walked back into the temple and first went to the Bodhisattvas for blessings. Xu Yan remembered that her aunt was a Buddhist and she always carried a lot of cash in her bag when she went to worship Buddha.

Xu Yan also went to the town's ATM in the morning and took out a few thousand yuan as a symbolic donation.

Chen Jiani knelt on the futon and muttered quietly, "This temple makes a lot of money. Look, hundreds of dollars are stuffed into the donation box."

"Of course not. I heard that some famous temples can earn 800,000 a day."

"I earn more in one day than I do in ten years..."

Chen Jiani decided that she would not only envy the stars and Xu Yan for making a lot of money, but also envy the temples for making a lot of money. Li Yiran said on the side: "In fact, some temples make a lot of money and spend a lot of money. Generally, it costs a lot of money to repair a large temple."

Xu Yan nodded and whispered, "I went to Xishan with my aunt before. Isn't there a famous Buddhist mountain over there? It's really big. It costs a lot of money to repair it every year~"

Xu Yan saw that the time was almost up, and she began to chant: "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, I am a believer, Xu Yan, please bless my family with good health, and may they have a happy and healthy life every year..."

After worshipping Guanyin, Xu Yan went to worship Manjusri Bodhisattva. She clasped her hands together and prayed devoutly: "Great Manjusri Bodhisattva, please bless my sister Xu Yun to succeed in her studies, and also bless the four of us to be admitted to good schools when the time comes."

They walked around the place and were about to go out for fortune-telling when they happened to meet an old monk. They bent down and greeted him, but the old monk stopped them.

The old monk looked very old. Seeing this, Xu Yan and the others stopped and asked, "Master, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Haha, several donors are destined to be with me..." He began to count with his fingers, and then said again: "I guess several donors want to go to the fortune-telling stall in front of the temple to have a fortune told, right?"

"Yes, master."

"Can I, a monk, help you calculate it?"

Several people looked at each other, and then whispered: "Why don't we let the master take a look?"

“What if it’s a scammer?”

"Let's talk about whether he is a liar or not. Now we have an old master in front of us who personally said he can tell our fortunes. Let's just give it a try."

"Too."

Several people straightened up and stopped talking, and said to the old monk: "Of course, we can, but we want to ask why you are telling fortunes for us?"

The old monk smiled and said, "Do you think this temple is big?"

"It's big, of course it is, and there's a camellia garden behind the temple."

The monk nodded after listening and asked again: "Do you think there are many people coming here?" The monk pointed in a circle around him.

"Of course."

Especially now that the rain has stopped, there are more people, but strangely, there are few people on the road that Xu Yan and the other three are walking on. The old master nodded, "Look, there are so many people here, but when I came out, I met you. Isn't this fate? And my life is all about fate, and I just want to fulfill my fate to the end, so can you ladies agree to let me tell your fortune?"

"Since the master has said so, it will be bad for us to refuse."

The monk raised his hand and motioned Xu Yan and the others to sit on the steps next to him. The old monk sat down first, and the others sat on the other side of the monk.

The monk looked at Li Yiran who was sitting at the back. "Let's talk about the near and far. Although fortune-telling is easier for Taoists, I don't think I'm inferior to them."

Then, the monk took out a wooden box from his sleeve, handed it to Xu Yan and the others, and motioned them to shake out the lots inside.

First it was Li Yiran, then Su Rou, then Chen Jiani, and finally Xu Yan. Each person got a different signature. Li Yiran was called steady, Su Rou was kind, Chen Jiani was quiet, and Xu Yan's was an unsigned signature.

The old monk was also surprised when he saw Xu Yan shake out a blank stick, but he didn't say anything. Then he looked at the sticks in their hands:

"Destiny is ethereal and illusory, but it can follow you throughout your life. As others have said, what's the point of regretting something you have made up your mind about? The wheel of fate will still come here, so I won't say much, I will just explain to you why this word appeared in your mind."

"This donor, you are sure to get it, which reflects that you are definitely not as safe as you look. Sometimes, you are anxious, but the key is the word anxious. You need to be calm and steady when facing any matter, otherwise you will regret it when you make a choice."

"Master, is this decision important?"

"It's hard to tell, but you will naturally know it."

The old monk shook his head and talked about Su Rou's kindness again: "The word kindness has a wide range, but the warning here is not to let you be kind to others, but to be on guard against certain people who look like kindness."

"Precaution?"

Su Rou was puzzled. Seeing Su Rou's confusion, the monk added, "Maybe your mentality wasn't very good before, but it's very good now. But you still have to be careful. Some people who look kind are not really kind, and some people who look fierce are not really wolves."
