It was almost noon. Remembering that the Grand Mistress and the others were still in the Lingyin Temple, he sighed in his heart. Not good. He had forgotten the time while talking to this old man. He did not know how anxious the Grand Mistress was.
He hurriedly went into the temple and found the Grand Mistress and the others with great difficulty. He saw the Grand Mistress in the Hall of Great Strength worshiping the Bodhisattva.
Lin Wanrong hurriedly pulled Four Virtues and said, "The Grand Mistress did not look for me, right?"
"No." Four Virtues said, "The Grand Mistress said that third brother has a lot of things to do, so she told us to play slowly and wait for your arrival. The Grand Mistress is very devout. She has worshiped every Bodhisattva in this temple and given incense."
Worshiped every Bodhisattva? Lin Wanrong broke into a sweat. The Lingyin Temple worshiped more than a hundred Bodhisattva of various sizes. How long would it take to worship?
The Grand Mistress was worshiping the Guanyin statue. The Guanyin Bodhisattva held a pure water bottle and saved all living beings. Below her was the Child of Good Fortune, who told the story of the Child of Good Fortune worshiping the Guanyin.
The Hall of Great Strength was solemn and majestic. In the middle of the hall was a seventy or eighty feet tall lotus statue of Sakyamuni. It was wonderful and dignified.
Since he had come to the temple, how could he return empty-handed? Lin Wanrong also worshiped in front of the Bodhisattva, praying that he would get rich every year and get a wife.
After worshiping the Bodhisattva, Lin Wanrong saw an offering table next to him. There was also an old monk sitting there. He smiled in his heart. The matter of asking for and interpreting the lot was a gamble on the heart of the worshiper. Usually, they would arrange a kind-looking old monk who looked like an enlightened monk. Even if you did not believe it, you had to believe it.
Xiao Feng walked to his side and said, "Brother Lin, it is really a bit expensive to ask for a lot in this temple."
Lin Wanrong saw that he was holding a lot in his hand, so he smiled and said, "Why, have you asked for it?"
Xiao Feng nodded his head and said, "Asking for a signature costs one tael of silver, explaining a lot costs two taels of silver, it is indeed a bit expensive."
Sweat, he vaguely remembered that the Xixia Temple outside of Jinling City also had this price. Who would have thought that the price of incense was also the same.
Xiao Feng spent one tael of silver to get a stick, but he was reluctant to spend another two taels of silver, so he handed the stick to Lin Wanrong and said, "Brother Lin, you should learn to say hello and help me decipher this stick."
I didn't expect that in the eyes of this Xiao Feng, I could be considered a greeting. Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "If that's the case, I'll help you solve one."
The more mysterious, vague, and unreliable it was, the more people would believe it. Lin Wanrong had no doubt about his ability to fool people. Taking the slip from Xiao Feng's hand, he took a look and saw four verses written on it:
"Dawn and dusk all depend on Buddha's support.
One must not be in danger.
If a noble guide me,
At that time, wealth will follow. "
This stick needed someone to decipher it? Lin Wanrong shook his head and sighed. Such vague and ambiguous words could be interpreted any way.
"Brother Xiao, what do you want to ask?" Lin Wanrong said with a smile.
"Marriage — oh, fortune." Xiao Feng said embarrassedly.
F * * k, this is clearly a fortune stick, and you have the nerve to ask about marriage. Lin Wanrong laughed and boasted shamelessly, "Brother Xiao, this is a good lot."
Xiao Feng saw that he said it so well and hurriedly said, "What is a good lot? Brother Lin, quickly say it. "
Lin Wanrong said, "There is no need to say the first verse of the gatha. It means that the good and bad of your life is all thanks to the Bodhisattva in this temple, so you must be filial to them. Even if you encounter danger, it will be automatically resolved. As long as you receive the help of a noble, glory, splendor and wealth will come rolling in. "
This gatha was easy to understand, but to decipher the stick, it needed someone else to decipher it. Moreover, he met a big hoodwinker like Lin Wanrong. Of course, it made Xiao Feng dumbfounded.
Xiao Feng said respectfully, "Brother Lin, you are indeed an expert. But I wonder if this stick can be used to seek for marriage?"
This kid is really stingy. After asking for a fortune stick, he still wants to solve his fortune and marriage. That is a bit too much. Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, one must be sincere in asking for the stick. Only then will this stick be effective."
Xiao Feng smiled embarrassedly and stopped asking about marriage. He only secretly stared at the servant girl, Xiao Cui, who was beside the Grand Mistress.
When the servant girl, Xiao Cui saw that Lin Wanrong could decipher the stick, she also ran over and spent a tael of silver to ask for a stick. She passed it to Lin Wanrong and said, "Third brother, can you also help me decipher it?"
Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "Of course, but what does Sister Xiao Cui want to ask?"
The few freckles on Xiao Cui's face immediately lit up. She shyly lowered her head and said softly, "Asking about marriage."
F * * k, I knew you girls would want to ask about this. Which girl doesn't yearn for love? When you go to the temple, you will definitely ask about marriage. Lin Wanrong picked up her stick and saw a line of gatha written on it, "The red rope is bound to a previous life. There is no need to seek a matchmaker. In the new pavilion under the bright moon in the deep night, suddenly the cry of a phoenix can be heard in the silence. "
Lin Wanrong chuckled, "Sister Xiao Cui, congratulations. This is a good stick."
When Xiao Cui heard that, she immediately became spirited and did not care about her shyness anymore. She exclaimed, "Is it true? Third brother, quickly help me decipher it."
"This red rope, also known as the red rope, is the marriage line of Yue Lao. The meaning of the first two lines is that Yue Lao has given you a marriage. Even if you don't ask for it, the fate will come uninvited. This is also commonly known as the fate of a lifetime. It means that there is fate. The last two lines, the new pavilion means the bridal chamber. The cry of the phoenixes means that the couple is a match made in heaven. This means that there is fate for those who are fated to be together. Naturally, their wishes will come true. If this isn't a good stick, then what is it? Congratulations, congratulations, Sister Xiao Cui. "
Xiao Cui was pleasantly surprised. She secretly glanced at Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng was also looking at her. The two of them started to exchange flirtatious glances.
Lin Wanrong laughed in his heart. The two of them had already hooked up long ago. Yet, they still pretended to ask for some marriage stick. What a good pair of dogs.
Then Si De also did not want to be outdone. He asked for a fortune stick, but it was also a good stick. Lin Wanrong deciphered it and coaxed them to be extremely happy.
Si De said, "Third brother, we have all asked for a stick. Why don't you go and ask for one too?"
Seeing that everyone was so excited, Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Alright, I will go and ask for one."
He ran to the offering table and spent a tael of silver to ask for a stick. He took it back and looked at it. It read, "The fish is trapped in the deep pool and does not transform into a dragon. The bright light shines on its glory. There is a path to the blue sky but it must be reached. The sunset looms over the nine heavens."
Lin Wanrong was used to fooling others. When it came to himself, although the stick was simple, he did not know how to solve it.
"Let me do it." A gentle voice sounded beside him. Everyone looked up and saw that it was the Grand Mistress who was devoutly worshipping the Bodhisattva just now.
Seeing that Lin Wanrong was hesitating, the Grand Mistress smiled and said, "What, don't you believe me?"
"How could I?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "I am afraid that my stick is too good and will scare you."
The Grand Mistress said, "It would be strange if I believed you." She gently took the stick in his hand and looked at it. After thinking for a while, she said, "Lin San. Congratulations, this is the best of the lot, and it's a double solution. "
"Double solution? What do you mean? "Lin Wanrong asked strangely.
"Your stick solves both career and marriage. If it is not a double solution, what is it?" The Grand Mistress smiled.
F * * k, I only asked for a career stick. How did it become a double solution in the hands of the Grand Mistress? This is so f * * king weird.
The Grand Mistress said, "This fortune stick, it is written clearly in the gatha. Although there will be twists and turns, you will eventually have a successful career and wealth."
Lin Wanrong never doubted this. The Grand Mistress smiled and continued, "As for this marriage stick, it needs to be solved. The first sentence means that you are now like a fish trapped in a deep pool, and have yet to transform into a dragon. This means that your current marriage has yet to come. The second sentence means that you will be able to marry a good wife in the future and enjoy wealth. The last two sentences mean that once your marriage arrives, you will have a meteoric rise and become rich. If this isn't a good stick, then what is it? "
After the Grand Mistress solved this stick, it really became a little interesting. I don't know where Qing Xuan is now. This road of marriage is indeed bumpy, but I still have Qiaoqiao and Yushuang. I am fine with them. Besides, what does marriage have to do with riches and honor?
He thought for a while and smiled helplessly. These are the things that little lass likes to do. Why should I care about this? Do I have nothing to do after eating my fill?
Xiao Cui saw that the Grand Mistress was holding a stick in her hand and said with surprise, "Grand Mistress, you are also asking for a stick?"
The Grand Mistress blushed and said softly, "Hmm." Lin Wanrong was shocked. This girl always focused on her career. If she asked for a stick in this temple, she must be asking about the fortune of the Xiao Family. He said with a smile, "Grand Mistress, let me help you."
The Grand Mistress's face became redder and she said softly, "What do I need you to help me with? I will ask the old monk later."
Seeing the Grand Mistress's shy look, Lin Wanrong was puzzled. If she asked about fortune, there was no need to be so shy. Could it be that she asked about marriage?
Seeing that he was staring at her, the Grand Mistress couldn't help but snort, "What are you looking at?"
Lin Wanrong said with a smile, "This stick is very important. It will be safe to find the monk to solve it."
Seeing his sneaky look and smiling eyes, the Grand Mistress knew that he had guessed the purpose of her asking for a stick. Her face became hot.
She took the stick just now, but she didn't look at it. At this time, she couldn't help but take it and saw that it said,
"Happy and happy fumbling in the dark
Moon in the water, flower in the mirror, pavilion in the air
Holding a stone to fill the sea and throwing pearls to flick sparrows
Ignoring it is a delay
Not meeting, not meeting
The moon sinks to the bottom of the sea and people are dreaming
Other people's sticks, whether asking about marriage or fortune, were easy to understand. Why was hers so profound? It seemed to say something, but also seemed to say nothing. The Grand Mistress was confused.
