Chapter 455: Ancient Temple in a Small Town
Xu Ning immediately understood what it meant, and then put it into the space and handed it to the robot to take care of.
After walking for a few more days, the two finally arrived at a small town with people. The town was very lively, with all kinds of small stalls on both sides of the street. The vendors were all enthusiastically selling their goods, and those rare things made people dazzled.
There are some small stalls displaying exquisite sachets. The embroidery on the sachets is very delicate. The sachets emit a faint fragrance, which is not strong but very charming.
There are also some stalls displaying exquisite small wood carvings, on which are carved various auspicious animal patterns. Each auspicious animal is carved so lifelike that it seems as if it will jump out of the wood carving in the next second.
On the other side, there are colorful sugar figurines, which are made into various shapes, including cute animals and mythical characters. A group of children gathered in front of the sugar figurine stall, their eyes full of desire and curiosity.
As soon as Xu Ning saw these interesting things, she couldn't take her eyes away. She shuttled between the stalls, sometimes picking up a sachet to look at it carefully, sometimes picking up a wood carving to touch it gently, and she couldn't put down those exquisite handicrafts.
Jiang Yan followed behind her, watching her excited like a child, his eyes full of doting. Whenever Xu Ning liked something, Jiang Yan would walk up to her, generously pay for her, and buy everything she liked.
There is an ancient temple in the middle of the town. The smoke from the temple is curling up, giving people a feeling of mysterious tranquility.
Xu Ning and Jiang Yan walked into the ancient temple, and both of them worshipped devoutly.
There was an old monk in the ancient temple, with a kind face and wise eyes. When the old monk saw them, he took the initiative to approach the young couple and talk to them.
He began to tell them the history and legends of this place. Xu Ning and Jiang Yan were both fascinated by his story. They seemed to be in the long river of history, traveling through time and space, and feeling the heaviness of the years.
Before leaving, the old monk gave the couple a pair of Buddhist beads.
Xu Ning couldn't let go of the Buddhist beads. As soon as she and Jiang Yan left, the other little monks started to talk about them secretly.
"The abbot was acting strangely today. He usually refuses to even see the pilgrims, but today he chatted with those two donors for such a long time."
"And he even gave her his favorite pair of Buddhist beads. How strange!"
The old monk ignored the young monks' words, and in a good mood, he lit another stick of incense for the Buddha, chanting: "Amitabha, the suffering is over and happiness comes, Daqing is blessed!"
After leaving the town, the road became increasingly rugged, and it was difficult for the RV to move forward on such a road, so Xu Ning had to give up the RV and ride a small electric donkey instead.
They rode their electric donkey over a mountain, and just after they crossed the mountain, the scene in front of them shocked the couple. A vast lake appeared before them, and the setting sun was shining on the lake.
Under the reflection of the setting sun, the lake looks like a huge piece of amber, emitting a charming luster.
Seeing this scenery, Xu Ning couldn't help but sigh: "This scenery is like a scene in a poem or a painting."
Jiang Yan was also shocked by the scenery in front of him. He and Xu Ning sat side by side by the lake. They watched the sunset slowly sinking to the west. The afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on them, dyeing their figures golden.
At this moment, the world seemed to become extremely peaceful, and the hearts of the two people became closer and closer to this land in the process.
They enjoyed this moment of tranquility and beauty in this place far away from the hustle and bustle, as if the whole world only had the two of them and this charming scenery.
They just sat there quietly, immersed in this beautiful atmosphere, as if time had stopped for them.
"Baby, please help me record this scene!" Xu Ning cherishes this scene very much as he may not be able to see it again in the future.
She communicated quickly with the treasure chest and at the same time did not forget to release the deer.
The little deer was a little confused when it came out. Xu Ning called it to the side, and the treasure box also recorded this scene in time.
"Hello player, the photos and videos are recorded for you."
"Thank you, baby!" Xu Ning leaned her head on Jiang Yan's shoulder. At that moment, she felt that it would not be a pity even if time stopped at this moment.
As if sensing Xu Ning's thoughts, Jiang Yan said, "Aning, we will see more scenery in the future."
"it is good!"
The two of them said no more words, and everything was in silence.
Night finally fell, and Xu Ning released the RV by the lake with reluctance.
The two of them cooked dinner by the lake in the night. After the deer left the space, it didn't want to go back, so Xu Ning let it wander around the lake.
After dinner, Xu Ning enthusiastically took out his fishing rod and started fishing by the lake, while Jiang Yan continued to be his academic master as usual.
After a while, Xu Ning caught a big fish weighing several kilograms. His exclamations interrupted Jiang Yan's study, and even the deer came over to watch the fun.
"Oh my god, are these fish not edible? How come they are so easy to catch?"
Xu Ning cast his rod and soon another fish was caught.
Half an hour later, the big bucket that Xu Ning took out to hold the fish was full.
Xu Ning reluctantly put away his fishing rod and prepared to kill a fish and roast it for a midnight snack.
Jiang Yan put the books away in time, rolled up his sleeves and began to process the fish skillfully.
Seeing this, Xu Ning moved out the barbecue grill, replaced the charcoal fire, and began to prepare the seasoning for grilling fish.
The deer strolled enough and came over to Xu Ning to look around and sniff. Xu Ning was not paying attention and the onions he had prepared were snatched away by it.
The raw onions were spicy, and soon the deer felt the spiciness so much that they quickly ran to the lake to drink water.
Xu Ning looked at it speechlessly, and took out a few sour fruits from the space and stuffed them into its mouth. The sourness can relieve the spiciness, and the deer quickly recovered, following Xu Ning around happily.
Xu Ning put the prepared seasonings in a basin, put the fish that Jiang Yan had slaughtered into it to soak for a while, and then put it in the oven to bake.
"Don't eat random things next time, okay? What if the food you eat is poisonous and I can't save you, you'll be dead! Do you understand?" Xu Ning took the opportunity to teach the deer a lesson. The deer swung its tail and listened carefully, but it was unclear whether the deer understood or not.
No matter what Xu Ning said, it looked at Xu Ning with moist eyes. Xu Ning looked at its cute appearance and didn't dare to say anything harsh. He just felt that as an owner, it really worried a lot.
Jiang Yan was watching this heartwarming scene with a smile on his face. Xu Ning glanced at him and saw that he was smiling. "Don't laugh. If you laugh again, you won't be allowed to eat fish later!"
Xu Ning puffed up his face, and Jiang Yan immediately begged for mercy: "Okay, I won't laugh."
Although Jiang Yan was not worried about having no fish to eat, he was worried about angering his wife and having no bed to sleep in at night!
Jiang Yan nervously hugged his wife and coaxed her: "Aning, I am smiling because I see you are cute. I definitely don't mean to make fun of you."
