Chapter 39

Being caring is not a skill that can be achieved out of thin air. Naturally, Qi Yang is not a skill that is considerate to Lu Jiayi out of thin air. He has this ability himself.

The one who helped him develop this ability was his half-sister.

Emperor Wenchang was in charge of literary fortune and fame. He has always been the most important thing for literati. He bowed before the exam and before writing an article, which was the most effective.

Lu Jiayi felt that he needed to pay a visit now.

"Then let's go and have a look." Lu Jiayi said: "I want to worship."

Qi Yang stopped the car and said, "Do you still believe this?"

"Of course I believe it. I was so diligent in paying homage to Emperor Wenchang back then... I always got so good at the exam."

Qi Yang turned around and drove him off the road.

From the highway to Wenchang Pavilion, the middle section is full of dirt roads, but it is obviously a built dirt road, which is very wide and flat. When they got closer, they found that the few people standing outside were villagers, picking up branches in the woods.

The Wenchang Pavilion is not very large, but the buildings outside are still of age. There is a yard in front. After they entered, they saw that it was quiet inside.

"I came here once a day before the last college entrance examination. Many senior high school students come here to pay homage, which is very lively," said Qi Yang.

This is the only Wenchang Pavilion in the surrounding area.

Of course, the Wenchang Pavilion worships Emperor Wenchang. After they entered, they saw an old man coming out from it: "Come and worship the gods?"

"Let's worship the Emperor." Lu Jiayi said.

"Come in, that's it." The old man said and looked at them, "Which school is from?"

"From our county's high school." Lu Jiayi said.

The name of county high school is very famous throughout Fuchuan County. As expected, the old man immediately smiled and said, "I ran over here so far and worshipped me, and I am so sincere. I will definitely get whatever I want."

Lu Jiayi smiled and knelt down on the cushion. After kneeling down, her expression became solemn. Qi Yang stood beside him, looked at the statue of Emperor Wenchang in front of him, and then Lu Jiayi whispered: "The Emperor of Nine Heavens, wearing white clothes, the sun and the moon shining, the universe and the Kunwu, there are those who can respect, so smart..."

After a long period of time, not only he was a little surprised, but even the old man was a little surprised. After waiting for a long time, Lu Jiayi finished lying silently, bowed a few times, then knelt there, folded his hands together, and was silent for about ten minutes.

Qi Yang has never seen a worshiper of God, or so devout. Ten minutes is really a long time for the people next to him.

When Lu Jiayi opened her eyes, the old man handed him a piece of paper and said, "You think as you like this."

Lu Jiayi glanced at the one on it, which was different from what he had read before when he worshipped Emperor Wenchang. He thought that the times had changed, and probably the words he had when worshiping Emperor had also changed. It was always correct to follow the local customs many times. So he recited it silently again: "Pray that Emperor Wenchang is effective and reveals his wisdom, open up the wisdom of believers, make his wisdom, improve his wisdom, and be at peace with his mind. From then on, his studies will be promoted step by step. Any exam will be successful and will be on the list as you wish."

After finishing the chanting, Lu Jiayi stood up. The old man said, "You can still recite the magical mantra of wisdom."

"I know it very young." Lu Jiayi said with a smile.

"I don't know much about this now, I just want to read it. Young man, if you are so sincere, your wishes will definitely come true."

Lu Jiayi looked at Qi Yang with a smile and gave him a place. Qi Yang said, "I won't worship you."

"Why?"

Emperor Wenchang, there are no scholars who don’t worship him, let alone if you don’t worship him, if you don’t take Emperor Wenchang seriously, how can you make progress?!

"Let's go." Qi Yang said.

Lu Jiayi thought it would be a pity for Qi Yang not to worship, but he also discovered that modern people do not believe in these things.

He took some money and put it in the merit box, and then said to the old man: "I came here suddenly this time and didn't bring anything. I will definitely come over to fulfill my wish after the exam next time."

His attitude is the opposite of Qi Yang, and he is very serious.

The two of them came out of Wenchang Pavilion, and Lu Jiayi said, "Why don't you worship? It's nothing to worship for a while."

"I never..."

"Shh." Lu Jiayi immediately pulled him away and ran to the bicycle outside before stopping: "You dare to say this inside, Emperor Wenchang was angry. Do you still want to make progress in the future?"

Qi Yang smiled, pushed the car lightly and said, "Just make progress."

"Then you won't make progress, didn't you agree to study together?" Lu Jiayi said: "Aren't you going to take the college entrance exam together?"

Let’s take the college entrance exam together, and this was said from Lu Jiayi, which encouraged people for no reason. Qi Yang stepped into the car and asked Lu Jiayi to sit behind him and said, “God’s blessing is one aspect. It mainly depends on personal efforts. Otherwise, no one will learn. Just come and worship, so don’t want to build a few more temples.”

Lu Jiayi didn't dare to talk to him, for fear that he would say more excessive things, which would be too rebellious.

He quickly looked at Wenchang Pavilion, hoping that the Emperor would not hear it, and prayed for Qi Yang in his heart: "Emperor, he is young, ignorant, and he talks casually. Don't bother with him."

The Emperor Wenchang, whom he respects so much, did not get the recognition of his good friends. Lu Jiayi was really a little unhappy, but most importantly, he was still worried that Qi Yang's disaster would not make any progress in the future.

So when he arrived on the road, he grabbed Qi Yang's clothes from behind and said, "What you said just now is unreasonable. Personal efforts and worshiping the Emperor do not conflict with the Emperor, and the Emperor does not bless those who get nothing for nothing. He only likes those who are diligent and studious. He sees that you are diligent and studious and worship, he will bless you. That God is not a good man, he also has to live a life of relying on folk beliefs and offerings."

But he felt that he might not be able to convince Qi Yang. People nowadays have too weak faith. For example, their family has no Buddha statues. It is simply unthinkable to put it in the past. Who doesn’t worship a Bodhisattva in the center of the main hall?

As he thought so, he suddenly felt a dripping water drop on his face. He raised his head and said, "It's raining."

Qi Yang said: "Then I'll ride faster, you can hurry up."

Lu Jiayi grabbed Qi Yang's clothes tightly, and he suddenly found that he could put both hands into Qi Yang's pocket, so that he could hold him tighter, and his hands could not be frozen.

Thinking of this, he put his hand into Qi Yang's two pockets, and then he almost hugged Qi Yang's entire waist. Qi Yang looked down and his waist was a little itchy.

However, the rain was still heavy. Even if it was about ten minutes away from the county town, Qi Yang did not dare to ride, for fear that Lu Jiayi would get wet. After he got out of the car, Lu Jiayi got out of the car and opened the umbrella.

As soon as the umbrella was opened, there was a sound of rain immediately. The rain was not dense, but the raindrops were heavy, and there was no village or shop in front of the village, and the wind seemed particularly cold on the road. Qi Yang saw an apple orchard in front and a thatched hut was built at the entrance of the garden, and said, "Let's go there and hide for a while."

The two ran towards the apple orchard, Qi Yang left the car outside and pulled Lu Jiayi into the thatched hut by himself.

The house was very small and had no windows. It should have been built by farmers in autumn to see the orchard. It was a little dark inside and there was nothing, so there was a wooden bed, which emitted mold.

The two of them stood inside and waited for the rain to stop. Occasionally, a few cars drove on the highway, and the sky seemed even more gloomy and foggy in the fields, which looked particularly wet and cold.

"Is it cold?" he asked Lu Jiayi.

Lu Jiayi shook her head and said, "Fortunately, I wore your clothes."

Qi Yang's clothes were a little big on him, but they were wrapped tighter. Seeing that the back of Qi Yang's hands were a little red, he asked, "Are you cold?"

“Not cold.”

Lu Jiayi reached out and touched his hand. Qi Yang seemed to be shocked and lifted it up as soon as he touched him.

Sure enough, he guessed that Qi Yang's hands were cold, probably when he rode a bike.

"Why are you wearing such thin clothes?" he said to Qi Yang.

Qi Yang was really thinner than them. On this day, he only wore a coat with a long sleeve inside. He found that Jiang Chao was the same, and the sports students in the class were all thin.

"I'm used to it." Qi Yang said.

As he said that, he put his hand in his pocket and looked at the vehicles passing by on the road.

Lu Jiayi turned her head and looked at Qi Yang for a while. Qi Yang was taller than him, and she had to lift her up when she looked. Qi Yang was a little unnatural, and when she pursed her lips, she could see the hidden movement of his muscles from his cheek to his neck.

Qi Yang finally couldn't help it and said, "What do you think I'm doing?"

Lu Jiayi said: "I was thinking, your ears should be frozen now."

Qi Yang: “…”

"I found that your ears are very blessed and your life is a great fortune."

Qi Yang: “…”

Qi Yang turned around and went into the room, found some hay and plastic cloth, piled it at the door, then took out the lighter from his pocket and lit it.

Lu Jiayi quickly squatted down and reached out to roast the fire.

But the plastic cloth smelled too bad, and the grass was not dry enough, and a lot of smoke was emitted. Lu Jiayi said: "Don't burn it, don't attract other people's house."

The fire gradually went out and the smoke slowly dissipated. The rain outside seemed to be heavier, and the bicycle Qi Yang placed outside was wet and dripped water down.

"It shouldn't be able to be put in for a long time." Qi Yang touched the cigarette habitually, but he didn't touch it. He only had his lighter in his pocket.

Lu Jiayi leaned over and said, "It will be warm if you squeeze it."

The two of them leaned together and stood side by side. Qi Yang thought of stretching his arms around Lu Jiayi, but he only thought so in his heart and did not take action.

"Ah sneezing!" Lu Jiayi sneezed, rubbed her nose, and smiled.

Qi Yang stretched out his arm and hugged Lu Jiayi with one arm, hugging her like a good brother.

In fact, he thought that it would be useless to hug Lu Jiayi like a boyfriend and girlfriend, then Lu Jiayi would be warm. He would be warm.
