The moonlight sees you

Chapter 20 Going Up the Mountain to Pray for God
On the mountain road to the Xikou Town Scenic Spot in Ningbo, a medium-sized bus drove steadily from a distance. The road was a bit steep, and the car turned around on the mountain road, getting closer and closer.The car drove into the parking area and stopped slowly. There were not many people in the bus. Looking from the window, I saw a man and a woman sitting in the first row of seats. They leaned against each other and slept soundly.

The girl was wearing a peaked cap, so she couldn't see her face, only showing her small chin and red lips.The man's face is extremely handsome. He probably was awakened by the shock of the buffer force. He opened his eyes gently, and his squinted eyes were a little absent-minded. He blinked and looked out of the window, his face was instantly lit up with an excited expression. .

He smiled and pushed the girl beside him, and moved the corners of his mouth, as if to wake her up.The girl slowly raised her head from the man's shoulders, a pair of bright big eyes embedded in her small melon-seeded face, but her eyes had no warmth, and there was not even a trace of joy on her face.

A dozen or so people got off the car. The man put on his backpack, turned around and asked a handsome man behind him: "Manager Qin, where are we going at the first stop?"

Qin Yu smiled gently: "Well, if you come to Xikou Town, of course you will go to Jiang's former residence 'Fenghaofang'."

Ying Yinger nodded in agreement: "Ah, let's go."

Along the way, a group of people walked while listening to the tour guide telling the history of this thousand-year-old town of Wuling.While the tour guide said, he recommended Fenghaofang, Yutai Salt Shop, Laoting and Xiaoyangfang’s popular attractions. Ying Ying’er was not interested in these houses at all. Maybe her attainments were not high enough. Where is the beauty of these historical buildings.

The employees of the company kept asking for a photo with her, but Ying Yinger readily agreed.A group of people came to Baoben Hall, and in front of the plaque of "Yu Li Shuai" written by Chiang Kai-shek himself, the employees started a new round of group photos.

The female employees asked all the women to take a group photo. Soon, eight women stood in two rows, and everyone showed a super beautiful smile. Some girls were afraid that their smile would not be beautiful, so they yelled "eggplant"!
With a sound of "click", the digital camera left their youthful images at this moment. The girls hurried over to look at the pictures displayed on the camera. .

A group of people played in Xikou for a while, found a restaurant, and sat down to rest.

Because they had to go to Xuedou Mountain in the afternoon, the girls ran back to the car to rest early after dinner, and Pan Erjun was the only "girl" left on the whole dining table.

The men were still drinking wine and chatting enthusiastically about some boring topics. Pan Erjun finished the last mouthful of rice in the bowl, wiped his mouth, stood up, and left the table without saying hello.

When her back disappeared at the door of the box, a male employee suddenly said, "Do you think Ying Yinger has become particularly interesting recently?"

Ying Ying'er, who was drinking beer, raised her eyes abruptly, looking at the speaker.It turned out to be Xiao Huangpi from the advertising department, who called himself "the most handsome guy in the world" every day.

"You found out too?" Another man asked in surprise.

"Yeah, you don't know, sometimes her eyes meet mine, I don't dare to look into her eyes, my heart beats super fast."

"Yes, yes, why didn't you think she was so attractive before?" Another boy from the design department echoed.

Ying Yinger pouted unhappily and said, "Is there? Why do I think she is still good-looking before?"

"Hey, Qin Yu, tell me, has Ying Yinger become more attractive recently?" Little Huangpi asked persistently.

Qin Yu lowered his head and smiled, then nodded and said, "Indeed."

"Look!" Xiao Huangpi was very happy that everyone agreed with his discovery, "Ying Yinger in the past was at most a Xiaojiabiyu, but recently, for some reason, just looking at it makes people flustered."

"Wahhaha, I think you have taken a fancy to him. As soon as you heard that Ying Yinger was coming to play, you immediately joined."

"What's the matter with you, unmarried men and women, what are you embarrassed about?"

Ying Ying'er didn't listen to a word of what was said later.When Qin Yu said that Ying Yinger looks good now, she was so angry that she wanted to flip the table, then stood on the chair and pointed at Xiao Huangpi's nose and cursed.But she was so angry that she broke a chopstick abruptly and did not stand up.

"Hey, Mr. Pan, what's wrong with you?" Qin Yu looked at her with concern.

Ying Yinger looked at him silently, without speaking, stood up with a gloomy face, and walked out of the room.Manager Qin likes Ying Yinger now, no wonder he didn't invite her to watch a movie when he was Ying Yinger, but when Pan Erjun was Ying Yinger... ahhh!So angry!
Ying Yinger went all the way to the door of the minibus angrily, and before she got on the bus, she heard the voice of a female employee from the bus.

"Hey, tell me, that Yinger doesn't even smile when taking pictures, it's really annoying to stand there with a cold face." A girl from the accounting department muttered twice in a moderate voice, just for everyone to hear arrive.

"That's right, it's disgusting to look at people with nostrils every day."

"Do you still remember how cute she pretended to be when she first came in, but thinking about it now makes me feel sick. People are unpredictable!"

"Hey, he's the assistant to the general manager now! If he's promoted, who else can he look up to?"

"I hate people like this the most."

"Me too."

"I've been annoyed to see her for a long time!"

"Me too."

"I really want to take care of her."

"Me too!"

Ying Yinger clenched her fists tightly, her teeth itching with anger!The friendship she had worked so hard to build up with her colleagues for nearly a year collapsed in two months!

At this moment, Mr. Pan Er came out from nowhere, snorted coldly, and swaggered onto the bus.

When several women saw him, they immediately ate melon seeds and some drank water, as if nothing had happened and they didn't say anything.

Pan Erjun glanced over one by one with cold eyes, and every girl who was seen dared not look at him.

Pan Erjun lowered his eyes, turned around, turned back and said with a very calm expression: "I just look down on women like you who can only speak ill of others behind their backs."

The women who sat there without saying a word were completely enraged and stood up one by one.Ying Yinger saw that the situation was not good, and immediately got on the bus, and the whole car looked at her motionlessly as if they had been acupunctured.

Ying Yinger looked like a leader and asked, "Are you full for lunch?"

A car of people froze.

The group replied blankly: "I'm full."

Ying Yinger nodded in a dignified way: "Just eat enough, don't overeat."

Ying Yinger turned around and sat next to Pan Erjun, biting her fingers and silently staring at Pan Erjun.This guy has already made himself a public enemy!How will he let her mess around in the future!She is now very worried about the days after her body is replaced.

How terrible that would be.

Around one o'clock in the afternoon, the car stopped at the foot of Xuedou Mountain.Ying Yinger and his group got out of the car one after another. She looked up at the green mountains and green waters in front of her, gently inhaled the shallow wet mist, and let out a long breath in the face of the faint winter cold, feeling a sense of relaxation.Moving the body that has been sitting for a long time, it feels like every muscle and bone in the body has been awakened.Sometimes after staying in the noisy city for a long time, it's time to go for a stroll in nature. It feels so good to breathe in nature.

Turning his head, he saw a relaxed expression on Pan Erjun's face that he didn't usually have. His eyes were no longer so sharp, and he was no longer so aloof and arrogant in this winter green.

"Hey! Wouldn't it be nice to come out for a walk once in a while?" Ying Ying'er smiled and pushed Pan Erjun with her arm.

Pan Erjun nodded: "That's right."

Ying Yinger's mood also improved. As a child born in a mountain city, he couldn't help but feel cordial and excited when he saw the mountain: "I also think this place is very good, but compared to my hometown Huangshan, it's nothing compared to my hometown. Hey, wait until the Chinese New Year." I'll take you to Huangshan to play."

Pan Erjun glanced at her: "Let's talk about it later."

A group of people climbed the mountain with great enthusiasm, and Ying Ying'er was exhausted when she reached the middle of the mountain, but she heard that the famous Zen temple on the top of the mountain, Xuedou Temple, is very good for marriage. For this, she will go all out to climb up .

The beautiful female tour guide introduced them to them while climbing: "Xue Dou Temple was founded in Jin Dynasty, flourished in Tang Dynasty, and flourished in Song Dynasty. Attractions..."

There are many incense shops not far from the temple. The tour guide took them to a shop where the incense was very expensive, but the tour guide said: "Buying incense cannot be called buying incense. It should be called inviting incense. Asking incense to worship God Show your sincerity, the more expensive the incense, the more sincere you are, and the more the Buddha will bless you. The more expensive incense is for your own good, those cheap incense are for worshiping the father-in-law of the land, and they cannot be used to worship the Buddha."

So Ying Yinger and his team bought a lot of incense under the clever tongue of the tour guide, but Pan Erjun was empty-handed and didn't buy anything.

Entering the main hall of the temple, there is a very grand and simple building inside.While Pan Erjun was admiring the temple silently, suddenly there was more incense in front of his eyes. Pan Erjun turned his head and saw Qin Yu in beige casual clothes smiling slightly at him.

Pan Erjun looked at him strangely.

"I bought too much incense, I'll share some with you." Qin Yu smiled gently.

Pan Erjun glanced at Xiang coldly, then raised his head and said, "I don't believe in Buddhism."

"But, I remember you used to believe..."

"It used to be the past, but it's different now." Pan Erjun said lightly.

"Ah...that's it." Qin Yu rubbed his nose in embarrassment and muttered, "I thought you didn't bring any money, so you didn't buy incense."

When Pan Erjun heard this, his originally cold eyes flashed for a moment, and he looked at someone who was scurrying around in the crowd not far away to borrow a lighter, and said, "It's true that I didn't bring any money."

"what?"

"It's nothing." His eyes still stayed on someone.Someone seemed to sense his gaze, and suddenly turned around and smiled at him, beckoning him to let him pass.

Qin Yu followed his gaze, took a look, and then looked at Pan Erjun: "He is calling you."

"En." Pan Erjun nodded, and then walked towards Ying Ying'er without looking back.

Qin Yu's eyes darkened, his hands tightly grasped the incense candle in his hand, looking at his back, he suddenly called out: "Ying Ying'er..."

Pan Erjun looked back at him, his eyes full of doubts.

Qin Yu opened his mouth, stared at him closely, then smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay."

Pan Erjun glanced coldly, then turned and walked towards Ying Yinger.Ying Ying'er saw Pan Erjun approaching, immediately grabbed him and asked, "What did you just tell him?"

Pan Erjun said lightly: "I forgot." Indeed I forgot, without a single important word.

"Your memory is really strong." Ying Yinger complained.

Mr. Pan Er ignored her, and asked calmly, "Why did you ask me?"

"Oh," Ying Ying'er smiled and handed over the two candles in her hand, "Hey, this is for you."

Pan Erjun looked at the things in his hand with some doubts and asked, "What?"

Ying Ying'er smiled: "You don't have to believe in ghosts and gods, but you can't be disrespectful. You're all here, so let's light two candles."

Pan Erjun looked at her, and then at the countless red candles burning on the candle stand, hesitant.

"It's good to ask for auspiciousness." Ying Yinger persuaded again.

Pan Erjun tilted his head, thinking about it, since he's here, it's good luck.

Seeing that Pan Erjun was a little moved, Ying Yinger immediately took out the lighter and asked Pan Erjun to light the candle by herself. Then she used Pan Erjun's candle to light her own candle, and the two put the candle on the candle holder.Ying Ying'er took out three thick sticks of incense and lit them with Pan Erjun's candle.

Pan Erjun looked at her strangely, why didn't she light incense on her own candle?
The guide next to him began to guide everyone on the procedure of worshiping Buddha: "You can't worship Buddha casually, every prayer is meaningful, and every step of worshiping Buddha is different." The guide taught everyone how to pray to Buddha step by step, "First light the candle, Then light the incense, and when you light the incense, light it on other people's candles, which is called borrowing blessings and wealth."

When Pan Erjun heard this, he looked at Ying Ying'er in the blink of an eye. Ying Ying'er had a treacherous smile on his face, and kept muttering: "Blessings and fortune, give me all the blessings, give me all the fortune. Hehehe."

Ying Ying'er has been a frequent visitor to Mount Jiuhua since she was a child, and she still knows the basics of worshiping Buddha. She doesn't know if others are blessed, but Mr. Pan Er is definitely the owner of blessings and wealth!
Pan Erjun glanced at her lightly, as if looking at an idiot.

Ying Yinger lit the incense in her hand, and happily asked Pan Erjun with the incense: "Hey, I will get rich next year, right?"

Pan Erjun looked behind her and said, "You will go bankrupt."

"Ah? How come, you gave me all your wealth."

"Look at the back." Pan Erjun pointed her finger behind Ying Yinger, and Ying Yinger looked back, only to see the staff of the whole company queuing up to burn incense on her candles, muttering while lighting: "Blessings for wealth, borrowing blessings Borrowing money." His own candle was almost burned out.

"Hey, don't you all borrow from me!" Ying Ying'er held up the incense and shouted distressedly.

The employees all turned their heads and said with a smile, "Mr. Pan, don't be so stingy."

"That's right, just lend us a little."

"Hey...don't borrow mine." Ying Ying'er lowered her eyes and murmured in her heart, you have borrowed from the wrong person, even if you borrow all my wealth and good fortune, you will not be able to make a fortune!

Ying Ying'er sighed, and thought to herself, maybe what they borrowed was bad luck!

Looking at the three sticks of incense burning in his hand, and at Mr. Pan Erjun who was empty-handed, he took out one and handed it to him without thinking, "Here you are."

"I don't worship God." Mr. Pan Er repeated again.

Ying Ying'er sighed, "Isn't there anything you want to do but can't do?"

Pan Erjun thought about it and said, "Well, there is one thing."

Ying Yinger asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Return to the body."

"Oh." Ying Ying'er nodded, and then said, "I'd have forgotten if you didn't tell me. Recently, I'm used to seeing your face when I come together."

Pan Erjun sneered and said, "You are really adaptable."

Ying Yinger smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go! Let's make this wish together! Maybe it will be back in a while." She handed him a stick of incense in her hand, then turned and walked to the main hall to worship Buddha.

Pan Erjun looked at her back indifferently, and wanted to throw away the incense with his hands, but looking at the devoutly praying people in the distance, for some reason, he withdrew his raised hand again.Pan Erjun stared blankly at the incense in his hand, why?Obviously don't want to, but don't want to throw it away?
Looking at the person waving at him in the distance, he frowned, and followed him anyway, just pray, it's no big deal.

Worshiping gods requires meditation and piousness. Ying Ying'er closed her eyes and made three wishes to the Buddha in her heart. They are the kind of wishes that everyone would make: family health, family safety, and family happiness.

Looking at Ying Yinger like this, Pan Erjun closed his eyes for some reason, and silently made a wish...to return to his body.

Not far away, in front of the smoky candle stand, a handsome man held a long incense stick in his hand, lightly placed it on the candle and lit it, and that candle was exactly the one Ying Ying'er had just lit.

The incense in his hand was slowly wafting white smoke, and his deep eyes were looking through the white smoke, looking at the man and woman bending over to worship Buddha in the distance...
