Chapter 194 The ugly girl also asked for a signature
A promise between two people is not considered a breach of promise as long as one of them is doing his or her utmost to keep it!
The sentence on the top of Cangyu Peak:
"You bastard, my name is Mu Qingxue, what's your name?"
"Ji Yichen!"
In the eyes of the ugly girl Mu Qingxue, this was a promise made between the two when they were young! In order to find this person, she had been waiting and searching for three years, and now she was on the road to find him again.
It must be said that Shen Yichen and Mu Qingxue seem to be destined to be together, because when they grew up, they were both looking for someone, one looking for his mother, and the other looking for his mother's person! However, their experiences were very different. One was fighting and killing all the way, facing the threat of death, while the other one? Leisurely and free!
Beautiful people are prone to gossip, while ugly people have no gossip!
Since Mu Qingxue dressed up as an ugly woman and entered Yanquan with Sun Bo, she has been able to travel freely and enjoy the mountains and rivers. It's so pleasant! The journey is not difficult, but it's a bit slow! However, as Sun Bo said, it's useless to walk fast, and it's useless to arrive at the Jiuchonglou in advance. If the Ji family doesn't come, they can only wait! It's better to look at the mountains and enjoy the water and arrive on time!
Mu Qingxue had seen countless famous mountains and rivers before, but at that time, she was only thinking about her own life and death, so she had no mood to see the mountains and rivers. Now it is different. She is in good health. Looking at the mountains and rivers again, she knows the beauty of nature and the beauty of life! However, it is a bit regrettable that Mu Qingxue has hidden her beauty, and she has even made it worse! She has bound her front into a plain.
Mu Qingxue really had no beauty left, she looked just like everyone else! But she was content!
On this day, Mu Qingxue came to a place called Shuangxi County and drank tea at a tea stand on the roadside. She was ugly but she knew it. She drank while standing on the roadside! Actually, it had nothing to do with the beauty or ugliness of the person. It was just that there were too many people in the tea stand! It was packed, and many people drank while standing.
This made Mu Qingxue and Sun Bo very confused. How could there be so many people in a simple teahouse on the roadside? Moreover, after drinking tea, these people all went in the same direction, which was even more strange! When paying, Mu Qingxue asked the waiter in a waistcoat:
"Little Brother, where are these people going? Why are they all going over there?"
The waiter responded impatiently:
"They are all seeking marriage, it has nothing to do with you!"
The first half of the sentence is very pleasant to hear, and it gives the answer. But what about the second half? It is really harsh! What do you mean by “it has nothing to do with you”?
Mu Qingxue was so angry! Although she had gotten used to it, the waiter's words hurt her heart, because this sentence meant that marriage had nothing to do with her. Why did she come here? She just couldn't forget that person and came here to seek marriage!
Mu Qingxue threw the coins on the ground and stepped on them a few times! She walked away without looking back, heading in the direction everyone was heading!
The waiter looked at the ugly woman's back and muttered:
"I don't even like this ugly thing, why would I go and ask for a fortune? It's useless even if the fortune sticks are broken into pieces!"
But he still bent down and picked up the copper coin. Nowadays, everything under your feet is money!
Mu Qingxue didn't hear the waiter's complaints, which was a pity, otherwise she would have been mentally prepared.
Along the way, Mu Qingxue was really a little frustrated because she asked several people, but no one paid any attention to her, and both men and women avoided her.
The female probably means:
"You're looking for a marriage partner when you look like this? Is our Yue Lao Temple so effective?"
What about men? Most of them said:
"What bad luck! Please don't tie the wrong red string!"
In the end, Mu Qingxue stopped asking and muttered to herself:
"Am I going too far? But it's okay, it will help us see if he is sincere!"
Miss Mu’s thinking is really weird!
There was no other way. Finally, Sun Bo came forward and spent some money. The person he asked was a young man who looked like a poor scholar. He told Sun Bo very patiently, but in the end he said to Sun Bo:
"If you go looking for a marriage partner at your age, I'm afraid the matchmaker will scold you for being so dishonest!"
Indeed, an old man and an ugly woman came to the Yue Lao Temple to seek marriage, which really made things difficult for Yue Lao! However, Mu Qingxue finally knew why everyone came, and she became more interested in her heart, saying to herself:
"I want a good lottery!"
The story here starts with Shuangxi County, whose name comes from a beautiful legend.
Legend has it that thousands of years ago, there were two divine birds, one named Red Yuan and the other named Purple Yuan. They were a pair of mandarin ducks that loved each other. For some reason, they both died here and slept forever on this land.
The place where the two divine birds fell and slept is called Hongyuan Valley and Ziyuan Mountain. They are located in the south and north of Shuangxi County, facing each other from afar!
Mandarin ducks have been a symbol of eternal love and loyalty since ancient times, and the two sacred birds are witnesses of the lifelong love of the locals. It is unknown when two Yue Lao Temples appeared in Hongyuan Valley and Ziyang Mountain. It is unknown who built them, but after the passage of time and the changes of generations, these two places have become good places for locals to seek marriage! Since it is unknown which sacred bird Hongyuan Valley and Ziyang Mountain correspond to is male or female, both men and women can go to the Yue Lao Temples in the two places to seek marriage!
Since Mu Qingxue knew that the place she was going to was Yue Lao Temple, she moved faster and looked impatient. Sun Bo followed closely, but he also shook his head from time to time and sighed in his heart:
"My lady has really reached the age where she should get married, but who can be worthy of my lady? That boy? Hey, he's more suitable for my lady who looks like this now!"
This……
Is Shen Yichen really that bad? It seems like no one likes him!
"Miss, please slow down. I can't even walk anymore. There's no need to be so anxious!"
Uncle Sun had to remind the young lady, because Mu Qingxue was almost ready to run away, but they were ordinary people, how could an old man run away with her?
Mu Qingxue felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, and she even felt that she had lost her composure!
"Bah, who's impatient? I, I, I just don't want to see that group of people!"
This is obviously not true, because there were people everywhere along the way. He hid from that group of people, but walked into this group!
The surrounding discussions still have the same meaning:
"How can an ugly girl come to seek marriage?"
Mu Qingxue was furious and shouted loudly:
"An ugly girl also wants a good fortune!"
As a result, the surrounding sounds became:
"He's ugly and his brain is sick!"
"Who will marry her?"
"Is this guy crazy about men? Why not find a pig or a dog?"
"It's better to find a donkey. I heard it's very big!"
……
Mu Qingxue covered her ears all the way into the Red Mandarin Duck Valley. Sigh, she really experienced all kinds of life! She chose the ugliest posture!
After entering the Red Mandarin Duck Valley, no one spoke, because everyone became very pious and careful, probably because they were worried that the matchmaker would tie the wrong red string!
Even though Mu Qingxue didn't let Sun Bo in, Sun Bo still followed him in. His lady's safety was the first priority, and he didn't care what Yue Lao thought!
Hongyuan Valley is a circular valley, with camphor trees all around it, lush and green! There are sycamore trees on both sides of the road in the valley, a pond in the valley, and several willow trees on the shore! The whole valley is covered with green grass and blooming flowers!
From afar, there is a very thick, tall and large camphor tree in the valley. There are fluttering ribbons on it and colorful ropes hanging on it. At the end of the ropes are tied wishing cards. There are so many of them that it is impossible to count them. It seems that too many people come here to pray for marriage!
Next to the ancient camphor tree, there is a small red courtyard with red walls, red tiles, red doors and red curtains!
There were too many people today, so Mu Qingxue could only line up slowly and move forward. However, the valley was very quiet, and no one was talking. The people who entered were anxious, flustered, and praying, and the people who came out were smiling, crying, and sad! It can be said that there were thousands of people with different faces, but there was one thing in common, they were all young people! Except for Sun Bo!
I have to sigh!
Everyone prays to Yue Lao to grant them marriage, but they don’t know that marriage is like this circular Red Mandarin Duck Valley. People outside the valley desperately want to get in, but people inside the valley have to go out!
When Mu Qingxue walked under the ancient camphor tree, the wind started to blow outside the Yue Lao Temple. The branches swayed gently in the wind, and the wish cards jingled. Everyone looked up, watching the branches that separated and collided from time to time, and they all had their own thoughts! It seemed that this was everyone's fate, gathered by the wind, but also scattered by the wind!
When they were almost at the Yue Lao Temple, Mu Qingxue saw a pair of couplets on both sides of the red wall outside the temple, which was very strange!
On the left is written:
Marriage can be sought, fate can be found, but it is useless to ask the matchmaker for help!
On the right is written:
Love is hard to break, love is hard to forget, and the predictions from the oracle cannot be trusted!
Mu Qingxue and Sun Bo looked at each other. They were both very confused. How could Yue Lao say that he was useless? If the fortune sticks were useless, why would they still ask for them? Besides! Why were there so many people?
It is obvious that this couplet has existed for a very long time. Isn't this contradictory?
Mu Qingxue said to herself:
"Is this going to work?"
After entering the Yue Lao Temple, you will see Yue Lao, the Red God of Happiness!
Under the yellow curtain of the red house, there is an old man in red clothes, with kind eyes and a bright smile, holding a red string in his hand leading a handsome man and woman!
There is also a couplet on the pillar next to the Yue Lao Temple:
On the left is written:
Even if there is love from previous life!
On the right is written:
We still need the help of Matchmaker!
This is the correct way. The couplet outside the gate is really weird!
When Mu Qingxue burned incense devoutly, she realized in her heart that everyone has their own marriage, all beings are equal, and Yue Lao has no love or hate relationship!
When you kneel down and make a wish, close your eyes and you will see the beautiful boy in your heart! When you raise your eyes, you will see the love wish that is tied to you!
Sun Bo did not do these two steps. He just stood beside Mu Qingxue with his eyes closed and concentrated.
Mu Qingxue burned incense and made a wish. As for what she wished for, no one knew, but it must be related to that bad guy at the top of Cangyu Peak!
The next step is the last step, which is to draw a fortune stick, write down a wish, and hang it under the ancient camphor tree.
As everyone came to the other side of the ancient camphor tree, it became interesting here. There were three fortune tellers sitting under the three willow trees, but there were two teams queuing because there was no one at the last fortune teller's place!
Mu Qingxue didn't know what was going on, so she didn't go to queue up. Instead, she waited under the camphor tree and watched for a while!
It didn't take long to figure out the reason. The fortune teller under the third tree was a Taoist boy, while the fortune tellers under the other two willow trees were two old men in their fifties with black and white beards. They interpreted the divinations very clearly and eloquently. What about the people who asked for the divinations? They were very satisfied!
No matter whether the fortune is good or bad, no matter whether the person asking for the fortune is laughing or crying, the two fortune tellers can speak to your heart!
"Miss, go there!"
Sun Bo pointed at the Taoist boy fortune teller while speaking!
Mu Qingxue was puzzled, but she didn't care. It was just asking for a fortune, it was the same everywhere!
Of course Sun Bo had his reasons, because he felt that the Taoist child fortune teller was a cultivator! He was not comparable to the two ordinary fortune tellers!
Mu Qingxue came to the third willow tree alone, followed by Sun Bo of course!
What made Mu Qingxue very satisfied was that the Taoist boy fortune teller did not show any change in expression because of her ugliness!
However, the Taoist boy fortune teller looked up at Sun Bo behind him, but his expression did not change at all!
Just said one sentence:
"Shake it yourself!"
This was also the first time Mu Qingxue had done something like this. She had just watched others do it, so she did the same thing! She thought it was very simple!
But something strange happened. No matter how hard she shook it, no fortune would come out! No matter how fast or slow she shook it, no fortune would come out!
Mu Qingxue looked up at the Taoist fortune teller, not knowing what to do!
"Shake it yourself!"
Mu Qingxue shook it for a long time! Still no fortune stick fell! Her forehead was sweating! She looked up at the Taoist fortune teller again!
"Shake it yourself!"
Mu Qingxue was helpless. This time she shook the stick faster and faster, and became more and more panicked. But she really did drop a fortune stick!
But it was broken into three parts!
Mu Qingxue raised her head and looked at the Taoist fortune teller with shock!
The Taoist boy fortune teller closed his eyes and said:
"There are three calamities on the Three Lives Stone: the calamity of love, the calamity of fate, the calamity of life and death!"
