Chapter 76 The Wishing Tree

Jingzhe and Guyu were guarding outside the palace. When they saw Jiang Fuyue coming out again, she was with Shen Chuan. They were shocked and hurriedly went over to salute.

Shen Chuan also nodded politely in return.

After saluting, everyone walked towards the back together.

Gu Yu was extremely happy when she found out that she was going to see the praying tree.

They don't often come to Qingxu Temple. Even if they came before, they always went to the main hall and never went back.

The road is paved with neat bluestones, and both sides of the road are lined with excellent green vegetation. If the air here wasn't so cold, one would almost forget that it's already autumn.

Jiang Fuyue and Shen Chuan walked side by side, both of them just looking around and saying nothing.

Gu Yu was not idle either, his eyes were so busy that he would have been thrown to the ground many times had he not been pulled by Jingzhe.

Jingzhe is obviously no stranger to this kind of situation, and every time he takes action, he is very timely.

After walking for a long time, I saw a piece of red in the distance, swaying in the wind.

Walking to the end of the road and climbing a few more steps, you can see the whole wishing tree.

The old tree in front of us is a hundred years old and has grown extremely well. Its branches are so thick that it needs three or four people to hug it. Although most of the leaves have withered and fallen, the red silk all over the tree still stretches in the wind, which is very spectacular.

Gu Yu immediately said "Wow".

This was the first time she had seen such a big tree!
Jiang Fuyue came back to her senses and said, "Since you're here, let's go and make a wish. It's not a wasted trip."

Guyu nodded happily, pulled Jingzhe and ran forward, asked the little Taoist priest who was dozing off for red silk, and then took a pen, found a place where he could write, and began to think about what he wanted to write.

Shen Chuan and Jiang Fuyue stood side by side, but they both just looked at it and had no intention of stepping forward to make a wish.

After a moment of silence, Shen Chuan took the initiative to speak: "Mrs. Gu, why don't you go over and make a wish? I heard that Qingxu Guan is very effective and will definitely bless Mrs. Gu's wishes to come true."

Jiang Fuyue smiled and shook her head: "No, I don't want anything."

Shen Chuan was silent.

Generally speaking, people who can say this kind of thing either have an extremely happy life and want nothing else, or they are so disheartened that they don't care about anything and naturally want nothing.

Last time when Xie Ziqi was drunk, he asked a lot of things about Jiang Fuyue, so in his opinion, Jiang Fuyue was obviously not the former.

"Where is Master Shen?" Jiang Fuyue asked.

"Me," Shen Chuan smiled, "I can get what I ask for, so I don't have to worry about the gods in the sky."

Jiang Fuyue also pursed her lips and smiled, then said no more.

In the distance, Jingzhe had already written down his wish and started to find the right angle to throw it at the tree, but Gu Yu was still biting the pen and struggling.

At this time, a sudden gust of wind blew up the fallen leaves and dust on the ground and flew all over the sky.

The little Taoist priest who was dozing next to him suddenly woke up. He looked at the scene in front of him and was speechless for a moment. Then he picked up the broom as if resigned to his fate and started running around the yard chasing fallen leaves.

Jiang Fuyue frowned, and just as she was about to step back, Shen Chuan had already stepped in front of her.

Shen Chuan was tall. He stood forward and blocked all the broken leaves. Only a little dust stained Jiang Fuyue's skirt.

This gust of wind came and went suddenly, leaving everyone in the courtyard in disgrace and disgrace before disappearing.

Shen Chuan turned around to look at Jiang Fuyue, but the moment Jiang Fuyue saw him, she burst out laughing.

I saw this newly rich man who had just been well-dressed and full of nobility. At this time, his hair and even his face were stained with dust and fine fallen leaves, and he looked quite embarrassed.

"...I'm sorry." Jiang Fuyue said this, but the smile on her face still showed no intention of shrinking.I just couldn't help it.

Although there was no mirror, even Jiang Fuyue lost her composure, and Shen Chuanxiang could also tell how dignified he looked at this time.

He smiled helplessly and reached out to pluck the broken leaves from his hair: "Mrs. Gu is laughing."

Jiang Fuyue covered her mouth, a smile welling up from her eyes.

At this time, Jingzhe finished throwing away the red silk and came over. Seeing Shen Chuan looking so embarrassed, he was a little surprised for a moment: "Master Shen, what are you..."

Jiang Fuyue raised her hand to pull her over, and started to pluck the broken leaves from her hair: "Stop talking about her."

He himself was disgraced and not much better.

Jingzhe's cheeks turned red and she quickly raised her hand to pick the leaves.

While picking leaves, she said: "Madam, let's go. It's almost time for lunch, and your hands are cold. Let's find a warm place to rest!"

Jiang Fuyue nodded: "Okay."

She was indeed a little cold.

But it seemed that the medicinal bath during this period was really not in vain. If it had been in the past, she would have been so cold that she would have rubbed her hands and stamped her feet due to the gust of wind just now.

Seeing this, Shen Chuan turned around and winked at the boy who had been waiting not far away. When he saw the boy turned and left, he said: "Miss Jingzhe, I almost forgot if I didn't mention it. The vegetarian food here is also outstanding. I’ll ask someone to grab a seat first, Mrs. Gu, and we’ll go there together later.”

Jingzhe blinked and thought of something, but didn't say it.

On the other hand, Guyu who was on the side finally came back, happened to hear these words, and said: "There are not many people in Qingxu Temple today, no need to hold a seat, right?"

If there are many people, the wishing tree will be surrounded inside and outside. At that time, let alone making a wish, you can't even get close to it.

Shen Chuan was startled.

He finally realized that he didn't see many people at all, either in the main hall or on the way to the praying tree.

Shen Chuan coughed lowly, and the tips of his ears turned slightly red.

Jiang Fuyue also smiled and said: "Anyway, we met, let's go there together, there are so many people and it's so lively."

"Mrs. Gu is absolutely right." Shen Chuan nodded repeatedly.

Apart from the wishing tree, there wasn't much else to see here, so everyone went to the dining hall together.

The dining hall is large, with simple tables placed inside. There are no excessive decorations, but it looks particularly transparent.

The dining hall was also empty, with few people coming here to eat.

Everyone found a place to sit down, and Gu Yu turned around to receive the vegetarian meal.

Although it was the first time to see the wishing tree, it was not the first time to eat this vegetarian meal.

Gu Yu had no idea what kind of food was delicious, and soon a lot of food was served.

Although there are many types of food, the quantity is not much, just enough for everyone.

Originally, according to the rules, Jingzhe and Gu Yu should eat at the side table, but now it was Jiang Fuyue's foreigner who was with her. To avoid suspicion, Jingzhe and Gu Yu simply joined the table.

Looking at the clean plates on the table, Gu Yu felt proud.

Just right, no waste at all!
As expected of her!
