Chapter 130 Yuelao Temple
Chapter 130 Yuelao Temple
Just when Xu Lin and her group were busy at the meat factory in the western suburbs, they could hardly concentrate on anything.
Some people are playing freely.
In the eastern suburbs of Peiping, in a very elegant courtyard house, several girls were looking around curiously.
This courtyard seems to be completely unaffected by the knife-like north wind outside. The courtyard is filled with greenery like early summer. Green grape vines hang on the clean wooden shelves. The winding vines climb up the wall. There are still a few green cucumbers, and half of the radish in the ground is white, making people want to take a bite.
"Xiaomeng is here? Come on, come in quickly, don't get cold in the wind outside."
There was a burst of hearty laughter in the room, followed immediately by the sound of busy footsteps.
"Squeak"~
The door shaft of the half-opened door made a friction sound, and then the door was quickly opened from the inside. An old man wearing a monk's robe and a pair of gold-rimmed round glasses walked out with a smile. The left sleeve swayed as he moved.
"Grandpa Lou"!
Shen Meng jumped forward and the old man quickly squatted down, hugged her with his remaining right arm, and then rubbed the white hair on her head.
"Why did you suddenly think of coming here? I remember that your school has been very busy recently."
The one-armed Taoist priest asked with a smile.
"There was a teaching accident in yesterday's practical class, we have a holiday today"...
Shen Meng looked at the one-armed Taoist priest with helplessness in his tone.
"Hum, I thought it was something big. Did I encounter a ghost this time? Let me tell you, when my master took my senior brother and I to the actual battle, we encountered a black zombie. We fought for three hours before bringing that thing down"...
The Taoist priest continued to preach with great interest:
"Let me tell you, the zombies I dealt with back then were not even a hundred but eighty. It's not like you little kids now, who would run away from a fierce ghost... When I was the most ruthless, my senior brother and I dealt with them A flying zombie had grown fleshy wings, and the two of us tried our best to suppress it. Half of my arm was missing at that time."
The old man shook his left arm with a smile, and the lower half of his sleeve was swaying in the wind. There was nothing inside.
"These are Xiaomeng's classmates, come on, come on, please come on."
The corridor leader looked at the other girls outside and greeted them quickly.
"Huh? Why is there a foreigner?"
The corridor leader's eyes swept over the faces of these girls one by one. When passing Astoria, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked Shen Meng with some confusion.
"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Zhang Qi's fiancée - my aunt engaged him. Her name is Astoria Greengrass, she is a British aristocrat."
Shen Meng pulled Astoria, who was still looking around, and said to the corridor leader.
"Ah, it turns out that the French daughter-in-law of the Zhang family found him a daughter-in-law"...
The corridor leader lowered his head and thought for a while, then said with sudden enlightenment.
"Everyone, come in quickly. Wait for me. I'll go to the kitchen to wash some fruits and eat them together later!"
After a brief shock, the director of the corridor let everyone into the house, and then walked quickly to the kitchen.
"Hey, Astoria, have you brought what I asked you to bring?"
Sitting next to the spacious Eight Immortals table, Shen Meng gently poked Astoria's waist and asked in a low voice.
Shen Meng and Astoria have become good friends in just a few hours - girls get along so well.
"I brought it, but why did you insist that I bring those things?"
Astoria thought for a moment, then nodded, and then asked in confusion.
"Those are all things that you will need later. Just bring them all. If you don't, there will be nothing you can do."
Shen Meng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Astoria had brought everything, and answered randomly.
"This corridor leader is a very famous divination master. His method is basically 100% effective. How about you give it a try later?"
"Well, I heard from my sister that there is a female teacher in Hogwarts who is responsible for teaching divination. She is crazy all day long and only knows how to drink and talk nonsense, so we basically don't believe in these things"...
Astoria said hesitantly.
"The corridor director is different from those liars. He has real talent and learning"!
Shen Meng said in English, and then showed a very heartwarming smile.
"Hey, Lao Mu, don't you think this smile is particularly familiar?"
Huang Lan immediately shuddered when she saw Shen Meng's smile, then she lay down and whispered in Mu Qianhong's ear.
"Yeah yeah".
Mu Qianhong looked at Astoria who was still talking to Shen Meng with a wry smile.
"Anyway, Shen Meng usually smiles like this when she wants to do something bad"...
Mu Qianhong said softly.
"Hey, you two, don't think that I'm so bad, okay? I'm a very kind person."~
After Shen Meng heard what her two good friends said, she first waved her fist, and then said slightly dissatisfied.
"Ha, you are the only one who has the nerve to say you are kind"?
Huang Lan asked with wide eyes:
"Let me ask you, that boy who said he looked down on your mother at school, how did he suddenly have diarrhea for half a month? Who put croton oil in his Lao Gan Ma hot sauce bottle?"
"So what? Can torturing scum still be considered torturing people?"
Shen Meng spread his hands and continued speaking in Chinese with an innocent look.
"Besides, I did have good intentions this time. I asked Astoria to bring Zhang Qi's hair and birthday. Don't worry, you two. I just want the director of the corridor to tell their fortunes."
After Shen Meng finished speaking, she grabbed a cantaloupe from the stainless steel basin on the table and gnawed it invisibly. While biting, she said vaguely:
"I said you two, have you really forgotten what this place is for?"
After speaking, Shen Meng raised her finger and pointed to a plaque hanging on the roof of the hall.
"Yuelao Temple".
"The director of the corridor is a contemporary Yue Lao. Although no one has come to see him for marriage recently, I think he will not care about my collection of money. After all, Grandpa Lou likes me so much."~
Shen Meng said proudly.
"Okay, okay, I know you know a lot of people, but it's really good to stay here. At least you don't have to be cut in the face by the cold wind outside."
Mu Qianhong said with great agreement.
