Tomb Raider: After being read, they all acted like me
Chapter 55: The status of matchmakers in ancient times, the statue of the god of wealth is broken
"Marriage Temple?"
Hearing Wu Xie's words, Lu Renjia quickly jumped up from the ground, turned on his flashlight and shone it on the plaque on the door frame. Although the characters on it had been weathered, the word "marriage" was still exceptionally clear.
Blind Chen’s words echoed in my mind.
'You are getting married.'
'Do you know the Marriage Temple?'
Lu Renjia clenched his fingers tightly, and a panic surged in his heart.
[Is it really such a coincidence? ]
[There are only three of us here, and there is nothing else. Could it be that Blind Chen is talking about me marrying a monster in the forest? ]
In an instant, Lu Renjia's breathing became rapid.
Although he has been single since birth and loves to ship couples, it doesn't mean that he is really hungry and can eat anything.
Wu Xie looked at Lu Renjia curiously and really wanted to ask out loud who the Blind Chen he was talking about and why he actually said something like marrying a monster.
He even gave way to Ren Jiaxin.
Fatty Wang was so annoyed by the two men that he stood up from the ground and looked at the temple behind him curiously.
The outer walls of the temple are painted red and white. Looking inside from the gate, the interior seems to be white. As he was looking, Fatty Wang actually walked into the temple.
Seeing him go in, Wu Xie called out, "Fatty!"
When he got no response, he immediately followed.
After both of them went in, Lu Renjia didn't dare to stay outside alone, so he quickly caught up with them.
After the three people entered the Temple of Marriage, a pure white weasel over one meter long poked its head out from behind a tree. Next to it, a dead yellow weasel was placed on the ground.
This temple is very small.
After entering, there is the temple.
In the middle there is a stone statue that looks like a middle-aged woman.
She was wearing a bright red brocade dress embroidered with peonies, a symbol of wealth and good fortune. She had a red hat with gold edges on her head. Her face was thickly painted with rouge, and when she smiled she looked like a blooming flower.
He was holding a colorful folding fan in his hand.
Looks very impressive.
The most eye-catching and also very indicative of her identity.
It has to be the matchmaker mole on the lower left side of the face.
Fatty Wang was so amazed at what he saw: "Tsk, Tian Zhen, Xiao Jia, this temple really lives up to its name, the Marriage Temple, the Marriage Temple."
"There are matchmakers enshrined in it, and they are particular about people."
Lu Renjia was even more panicked, "Haha, this must be a joke."
【Where did this exist in ancient times?】
[I don’t believe that even two men can be involved in a marriage. Ancient times were not so open. I’m afraid it must be fake.]
[Hiss, my head suddenly feels itchy, I hope my hair won't grow braids. ]
Wu glanced at the stories described on the wall. It would have been fine if he hadn't read it, but once he did he was shocked. This Marriage Temple had a great origin.
Then he ruthlessly wiped out Lu Renjia's hope.
“This is real here, and it’s been around for years.”
Sometimes Lu Renjia often wondered why people only have one heart. He now wanted to have dozens or hundreds of them and hang himself one by one.
Wu Xie called out to the two of them, "Come and see."
"It's recorded here that the Marriage Temple is not just for worshipping one person, but for worshipping famous matchmakers from the Zhou Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty."
Listening to Wu Xie’s explanation.
Fatty Wang's curiosity was soaring to the sky, "So powerful?"
Logically speaking, building temples and offering sacrifices to the gods would attract incense and worship, and it is impossible to do these things without strength. How could a mere matchmaker have such courage to build a temple?
And look at the extent of damage on the outside.
It is estimated that it is still under repair in the next five or six years.
"Matchmakers are also quite amazing. From ancient times to the present, it used to be called the Marriage Temple, and now it is called the Blind Date Corner," Lu Renjia couldn't help but sigh.
After all, all he says are advantages.
The speech is like a blooming flower, touching.
This requires extremely high emotional intelligence, which ordinary people cannot do.
Wu Xie also explained: "In ancient times, matchmakers were comparable to civil servants. They have existed since the Zhou Dynasty. According to the "Zhou Ji", 'Matchmakers are in charge of the judgment of tens of thousands of people'. In the Zhou Dynasty, matchmakers had great power. They not only knew the names and birth dates of all men and women in their jurisdiction.
They even have to deal with marital disputes and mediate major marital matters.
Marriages without matchmakers were not widely accepted in the past.
Matchmakers have only been condemned in modern times, and they tell lies for money, but in ancient times they were the heroes who promoted population growth. "
Having said that, Wu pointed obliquely at the first name on the wall.
"For example, this one created hundreds of couples in just one year."
【So scary! 】
[One hundred couples a year, what's the difference between this and Yue Lao. 】
Lu Renjia took a deep breath, no wonder he built a temple, he was simply a god, he could create hundreds of pairs in just one jurisdiction.
I’m afraid even kittens and puppies will be grouped together.
I am ashamed that I failed to recognize such a great person.
Fatty Wang was also stunned. "Sure enough, there are always people who are better than you. I've learned a lot."
He really had never heard of this.
It turns out that we should not underestimate a profession that has been passed down from ancient times.
"However," Wu Xie was puzzled when he said this. He turned his head and looked at the statue of the matchmaker. "I don't understand why there is a statue of the God of Wealth here?"
Look in the direction Wu Xie said.
Lu Renjia saw that to the left of the matchmaker statue, there was another statue.
The red flower on top should have been worn during the consecration ceremony. I don’t know why it was not taken down. It was probably abandoned after it was built.
Different from the matchmaker's lifelike expression.
Lu Renjia always felt that the stone statue of the God of Wealth was a little weird.
But without too much time to think, he slid directly to the statue of the God of Wealth.
"Goddess of Heaven, God of Wealth, please bless me to make a fortune."
"If I can't make a fortune, you can just reward me with a Jie Yuchen!"
You don’t have to have a marriage, but you must kneel before the God of Wealth.
Listening to Lu Renjia's inner thoughts, Wu Xie really wanted to ask a question.
Who should be rewarded? Who should be rewarded to you? Why should the God of Wealth give flowers as rewards? He didn’t understand Lu Renjia’s new idea.
Unexpectedly, Lu Renjia had just finished speaking.
The stone statue actually cracked in the middle, with countless dust flying everywhere.
Lu Renjia: ...
[What do you mean? I just want to ask what you mean? ]
[I...you...oh, I just wanted to get rich, why did you split it? Why, my wish goes against the will of heaven, right? ]
Fatty Wang was stunned.
After a long time, he remembered to comfort Lu Renjia: “Xiao Jia, after all, he is a wild god, and he can’t kneel casually.”
It is said that if a stone statue in the wild is not used except for consecration, its eyes must be covered with red paper, otherwise it will be possessed by forest monsters.
It’s better not to believe in this statue of the God of Wealth.
【Thank you, I feel comforted. 】
"I think so too," Lu Renjia laughed twice and stood up slowly.
He said, how could he not get rich.
[Oh, at worst I can kidnap Wu Xie and make money from three parties.]
Wu Xie walked forward worriedly:?
Thinking that he could earn three times the money by kidnapping Wu Xie, Lu Renjia's legs and waist didn't feel weak or painful, and he even walked briskly. He walked forward to see what kind of building it was, it was so rubbish.
Unexpectedly, I just took a step forward.
"Click."
A clear sound rang out in the temple.
A five-meter-wide deep pit suddenly appeared, just trapping the three people. Only three screams were heard, and Huang Shulin regained his calm.
[What a shoddy project! ]
【I want to complain!!】
