I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

Ji Zihe hurriedly searched in various temples. No matter how big the Taoist temple is, there are only so many temples dedicated to gods, so it won't take too long to search for it.In a short time, Ji Zihe walked through all the palaces, but found no trace of bones.

Ji Zihe began to doubt again, could it be that the bones were not lost, but were still hidden in this relic?

Ji Zihe was taking out the relics to look at, when suddenly a hand was placed on his shoulder.Ji Zihe turned his head and saw that it was a bone, which frightened him.

"Where did you go, I couldn't find you anywhere." Ji Zihe complained a little.

Bone didn't speak, but just looked at Ji Zihe with his dark eyes.

Ji Zihe sensed something was wrong, "Bone, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you were hurt by the gods in this temple? Why did you leave me for so long? I can't protect you if you stay away from me." ah."

"I'm fine." Bone's voice was like a cold spring in a high mountain without a trace of human fireworks. It was as if Er Gouzi in the village had suddenly become a flower in a high mountain, which made Ji Zihe very uncomfortable.

"Why do I think you look weird, what happened?"

"What's weird?"

"Well, don't you hate walking the most on weekdays? Why now..."

"It's just for the convenience of the human form, there is no other reason." Bone said.

Ji Zihe nodded, expressing his understanding.However, Bones looks really nice in this outfit.The white robe is full of fairy spirit, wearing a white jade crown, and the hair that was loose in the past is tied up high, which sets off the Zhilan Yushu with more bones.Ji Zihe looked around, and many young girls who came to offer incense were blushing and secretly looking at him.

Although the bone looks abnormal now, Ji Zihe doesn't suspect that the bone is pretended by someone.After all, this is a Taoist temple full of incense. Bones said that such a Taoist temple would not dare to come. Many gods and gods naturally prefer this kind of Taoist temple.In case of a collision, I don't know how to die.

"Also, your eyes." Ji Zihe was puzzled, why did he have a kind of bone that was clearly looking at him, but there was no feeling of himself in his eyes at all?

"Eyes?" Bone raised his hand to touch his own eyes, his face showed a bit of confusion, silly, suddenly a little more fireworks.The suspicion in Ji Zihe's heart dissipated, look, it's still his second son, who is more stupid than before.

"I think your eyes seem darker than usual." Ji Zihe stood on tiptoe, leaning his head towards the bone.

Bones wanted to avoid it, but he forcibly suppressed that impulse, let Ji Zihe look at him, and said, "I'm hurt."

"Where is the injury, do you want to go back to rest in the relic?" Ji Zihe asked with the relic in his hand.

Gu Gu looked at the relic and shook his head, "No need, the relic on your neck is already missing, and the power that is almost exhausted now, it is better to use less."

"So that's the case. I just said how the good Buddha's relics turned into rotten wood. However, when I wear it, it will gradually become round. Is it possible for merit to repair it?"

Bone didn't refute, "You take it with you, sooner or later it will be repaired."

"That's really great... No, you haven't answered where you went just now. It's been so long, have you thought about your speech yet?" Ji Zihe asked.

Bones shook his head, "I didn't think about it."

"Can't tell me?"

Bones nodded, and Ji Zihe didn't force it, after all, everyone has secrets.Not to mention between friends, even between Ji Zihe and his grandfather, there are little secrets that cannot be shared between each other.

"Then let's go to my sister-in-law and the others now. We should go down the mountain after dinner."

"Okay," Bones replied.

Ji Zihe stood still, looking at the bones, but the bones did not move, looking at Ji Zihe, the two looked at each other for a long time, but Ji Zihe was still defeated.

"Why don't you turn into a ghost?" Ji Zihe asked, if the bone didn't turn into a ghost, how could he explain to his cousin that such a big person followed him.

Bone's expression remained unchanged, but suddenly he realized something in his heart, and said, "There are too many people here, I can't disappear suddenly."

Ji Zihe blushed, he had already forgotten the situation he was in now, could it be that he was planning to turn his bones into a living person?

"Blame me, I didn't think carefully, come with me."

There is no place where there are few people in the temple, so Ji Zihe simply took the bones to the outside of the temple, and found a secluded place, so that the bones could change with peace of mind.

In Ji Zihe's eyes, the bone's figure gradually faded into the familiar transparent shape.Ji Zihe knew that in his state, others couldn't see him.

"Why have you turned into a ghost and still have legs?" Ji Zihe asked looking at the lower body of the bone.In the past, Gu Gu's lower body was covered with a wisp of mist, and he used to float when he walked, and he was always too lazy to move his legs. Why did he suddenly stop floating today?

"I've always got to get used to using my legs," Bones said.

Hearing this, Ji Zihe had a bold idea in his heart, "Could it be that you had some adventures in the temple, did some old god accept you as an apprentice and gave you the secret book handed down from generation to generation?"

"It was an adventure."

"Then can you stop being a ghost all the time?" Ji Zihe asked excitedly.

Bone nodded and couldn't help asking, "Are you happy?"

"You don't have to be a lonely ghost anymore, of course I'm very happy. You must practice hard and don't let the old god teach you down. You can also be a god in the future, and you will be able to be at ease then."

A trace of confusion flickered in the bone-empty pupils, but he still nodded.

Ji Zihe found his sister-in-law and the others with the bones, and Ning Caichen was also there, and he was telling everyone about Ji Zihe's jokes about worshiping gods and begging for a child. Not only the Wang family, but even the Taoist priests beside him were all grinning.

Ji Zihe blushed, this time with anger.He rushed forward with a stride, and with a strong foot, he jumped onto Ning Caichen's back and covered his mouth.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Smelly cousin, you know how to expose his old background, don't you know what it means to be old and disrespectful?

Bones stood far away, looking at Ji Zihe, Wannian's frozen face seemed to have a smile on it.

After eating, Ji Zihe and his party left the temple, walked around the mountain again, looked at the scenery on the mountain, and then prepared to go down the mountain.

It is said that going down the mountain is easier than going up the mountain. This sentence is quite true. After all, when going up the mountain, it is always uphill, and when going down the mountain, it is always downhill. The mountain road that originally took two hours was just completed in one hour.

When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, it was already evening, the sky suddenly changed, and it rained heavily, making it difficult to walk.The servant who drove the car came to inform that there was a Buddhist temple at the foot of the mountain, and the caravan was going to take shelter from the rain.

Ji Zihe has no objection, of course, his opinion is not important at all.

A group of people came to the Buddhist temple. This temple is called Liugou Temple. The scale of the temple is not small, but the incense is not very strong.There were also many believers in this temple in the early years, but since the road was built on the mountain, a Taoist temple and several smaller Taoist temples were added to separate the believers, and the number of believers here has become less and less.

When the Wang family came to the Buddhist temple, the host was surprised to receive them personally. From this point of view, they were big customers, and it was rare to meet such believers.

Chen and the host explained their intentions, and the host was not disappointed, with a smile on his face.Almighty, it is raining heavily today, my Buddha blesses you, if you come here to take shelter from the rain, it means that you have a predestined relationship with my Buddha, do you really not consider believing in Buddha?

The host showed affection and moved with reason, which made the group start to reflect immediately, as if it is really inappropriate not to worship Buddha after entering a Buddhist temple.

So, a group of people who had just worshiped the Taoist gods went to the Buddhist site again, and worshiped all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas enshrined in the temple. money.

The host flicked the Buddhist beads and chanted Buddhist verses, and the smile on his face became more sincere.Can you be insincere, thank Buddha for giving such a rich and big client.Tsk, it's a shame that this great monk doesn't do sales.

After donating sesame oil money, the host became more enthusiastic about the group, chatting with Chen all the way, and discussing Buddhism with Chen, it is bound to make this hammer business develop into a long-term cooperation.

As a result, it was dark and raining, and the host enthusiastically asked the young monks to prepare a fast meal, clean up the room, and invited them to stay overnight.

There are many rooms in the temple. Although there are quite a lot of people in their group, Ji Zihe still lives in a single room.When he went out today, Ning Caichen didn't ask him to bring a book. Now that he had eaten and washed up, he was lying on the bed. Ji Zihe couldn't sleep anymore, and listened to the sound of rain outside the window with his eyes open.He is used to going to bed late, and the long-standing habit is not so easy to get rid of.

"Why don't you go to sleep?" There was no one in the room, and the bones reappeared in human form, sitting on Ji Zihe's bed.

"I can't sleep. When I thought about it, there are people who have studied more than me for so many years, so I don't know what to do. I always want to read more books, maybe I can narrow the gap with others." Ji Zihe said lying on the bed .

"It's useless to think too much."

"I know, but I just can't help but think about it. I heard that some people in their 80s are still taking the provincial exam. Do you think I will do the same?"

"No." Bone affirmed.

"Why?"

"No reason... I believe you."

"When you say that, I feel even more uncertain." Ji Zihe breathed out. Everyone thought he was fine. If he did not do well in the exam, he would have failed many people's expectations, which made him even more stressed. big.

"Since you can't fall asleep, why don't you talk with me for a few games." With a flick of his hand, the oil lamp on the table was lit, and Ji Zihe saw a game of chess on the low table in the room.

"You can play chess?" Ji Zihe got up from the bed and put on his clothes.

"Just know a little bit." The corners of Gu Gu's mouth slightly raised, and the warm light shone on his face, making him look much softer.

It is said that looking at a beautiful woman under the lamp makes her more beautiful the more she looks at it, Ji Zihe finally understood what it meant.However, when he gets into chess, Ji Zihe won't be able to indulge in beauty anymore, he knows a thing or two about fucking, cheating!

In another room, after the maid washed and changed Chen's clothes, Chen wanted to go to bed to rest, but saw the qin on the low table in the room.

"Ruyu, did you bring this violin?" Mrs. Chen walked over and observed carefully, and found that this violin was indeed Mr. Chang's.

Ruyu shook her head, "Returning to Madam, Ruyu remembers that this piano was kept in the study, and she didn't take it with her when she went out today."
