Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 336 The girl on the stone steps
  When Xu Xiuwen rushed to the upper entrance of Tianmen, Song Siyu had not arrived yet.

Waited for a while.

Song Siyu arrived late.

She came running, panting, and her face was red.

Song Siyu also saw Cheng Lu and An Shishi next to Xu Xiuwen.

Her eyes narrowed for a moment, but she still said: "Thank you."

Cheng Lu and An Shishi both said "hmm".

Xu Xiuwen said quickly: "Don't be too busy thanking me now. It's important to find Youran first. Let's go up the mountain quickly."

After Xu Xiuwen finished speaking, he led the three girls to the cable car.

It was too late to walk up the mountain, not to mention whether I still had the physical strength.

But it’s much faster if you take the cable car.

The cable car ride on Tianyun Mountain takes 20 minutes in total.

A cable car can seat six people.

At this time, because it was afternoon, there were not many people going up the mountain, and there was no need to queue.

After boarding the cable car, the cable car begins to climb up along the rope.

To be honest, the scenery on the cable car is different from the scenery you see when walking up and down the mountain.

But Xu Xiuwen was so impatient at the moment that he had no intention of enjoying the scenery.

After a long twenty minutes.

The cable car finally reached the top of the mountain.

As soon as the cable car was stable, Xu Xiuwen couldn't wait to open the cable car door and rush down.

The top of Tianyun Mountain is not too big if you say it is big, but it is not too small if you say it is small.

If you go around the entire top of the mountain, it will take more than ten minutes.

After the four reached the top of the mountain, they separated to look for Xiao Youran.

Xu Xiuwen became more and more anxious as he searched, but even after searching the top of the mountain, he could not find Xiao Youran.

He didn't know if anyone else had found Xiao Youran, but because they hadn't, if they had found him, they would have definitely called.

Ten minutes later.

The four met in the open space in front of the ancient building on the top of the mountain.

At this time, the faces of the four of them were ugly.

Song Siyu's eyes narrowed in anxiety.

She said with guilt: "Sorry, I lost Youran."

Her words made Xu Xiuwen freeze on the spot.

Xu Xiuwen can see his own heart clearly.

That night, his relationship with the two women was exposed.

In that case, he had to make a choice.

But deep down in his heart, he still liked Xiao Youran.

It's just that this kind of emotion is not usually expressed very much.

But now that Xiao Youran disappeared, Xu Xiuwen felt extremely scared.

He was really afraid of Xiao Youran's accident. If an accident happened, he would blame himself for the rest of his life.

An Shishi was no longer fighting with Song Siyu at the moment and took the initiative to comfort her.

Cheng Lu saw Xu Xiuwen's expression and asked softly and concernedly: "Xiuwen, are you okay?"

Xu Xiuwen came to his senses after hearing her words.

He glanced at Cheng Lu, with a flash of apology in his eyes.

He nodded and said, "I'm fine."

After a pause, he continued: "Call the police. If it continues, it will be harder to find Youran when it gets dark."

Cheng Lu remained calm.

She said quickly: "Don't call the police first, contact the staff of the scenic spot first. If it is a misunderstanding, it will not be good."

Song Siyu felt a little better after being comforted by An Shishi.

After she heard Cheng Lu's words, she immediately became anxious.

She shouted directly at Cheng Lu in public: "Cheng Lu, why are you so cruel! Youran is gone, what if something happens to her? Why don't you call the police! Even if you all like Xu Xiuwen, you shouldn't You are so selfish, you don’t even care about Youran’s life.”

Song Siyu's sudden attack surprised the three of them.

Cheng Lu was yelled at by Song Siyu, and the words were so fierce.

But she didn't get angry with Song Siyu because of this.

She explained: "Song Siyu, Xiao Youran has disappeared, and I am also very worried. I don't want to call the police, not out of selfishness, but it is less than two hours since Youran disappeared. What if she has gone down the mountain? What if? She has returned to the town, but she was delayed by something. This is all possible. If you call the police directly, in case it is a misunderstanding, isn't it a waste of police power? And the staff of the scenic spot must be very experienced in this kind of thing, so contact them first They might be more useful than calling the police.”

An Shishi looked at Cheng Lu.

She admired Cheng Lu very much.

Cheng Lu is Xu Xiuwen's nominal girlfriend, while she is his lover and mistress.

If before, she just felt that she was one step late, no worse than Cheng Lu.

But now she discovered the gap between herself and Cheng Lu.

You can still be so calm and generous at this time.

Girls like Cheng Lu are really hard to find.

After listening to Cheng Lu's explanation, Song Siyu also realized that she was too excited and said the wrong thing.

She also has a more straightforward personality and apologized on the spot: "I'm sorry, Cheng Lu, I shouldn't miss you so much."

Cheng Lu nodded and said nothing.

She turned to Xu Xiuwen and said, "Contact the staff first."

He nodded and said, "Okay."

After saying that, he was about to go find the staff.

Cheng Lu said, "I'd better go."

Cheng Lu did things very simply. After speaking, she turned around and asked the scenic spot staff for their number.

Xu Xiuwen didn't fight with her.

Turning around, Xu Xiuwen heard a burst of sobbing.

It was Song Siyu who cried.

An Shishi hugged her and comforted her.

Xu Xiuwen looked at this scene and was quite moved in his heart.

In any case, although Song Siyu was targeting him and criticizing him, she was sincere towards Xiao Youran.

Xu Xiuwen thought for a moment, then turned and walked into the store behind him and bought a pack of tissues.

When paying, the store owner asked with a smile: "Young man, are you here alone?"

Xu Xiuwen was not in the mood to chat with his boss, so he said nothing.

He lowered his head and took out the money to pay.

But the boss thought he had acquiesced, and continued to say with a smile: "Then I suggest you go to the Marriage Temple when you go down the mountain. Our Marriage Temple here is very effective. As long as you burn incense sticks, marriage will definitely come within a year."

Xu Xiuwen's movement to pay suddenly stopped.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the store owner and asked, "What did you say?"

The store owner was startled by his sharp and serious eyes, and subconsciously said: "I said Marriage Temple."

Marriage Temple!
  Hear those three words again.

Suddenly an idea flashed in Xu Xiuwen's mind!

Could Xiao Youran have gone here?

The more Xu Xiuwen thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Xu Xiuwen immediately asked: "Where is the Marriage Temple?"

The shop owner said: "When you go down the mountain, don't go up the mountain road. Take another road. There is the Marriage Temple halfway up the mountain."

"OK, thanks."

After Xu Xiuwen finished speaking, he quickly walked out of the store.

When the store owner saw this, he shouted: "Don't leave, I haven't changed the money yet."

But no matter how the boss yelled, Xu Xiuwen still left.

Come out of the store and return to Song Siyu and An Shishi.

Xu Xiuwen handed over the tissue and said at the same time: "I seem to know where Youran went."

Song Siyu and An Shishi were surprised when they heard this.

But before they could ask, Xu Xiuwen said: "You guys are waiting here for Cheng Lu. If I find Youran, I will call you."

After saying that, Xu Xiuwen turned around and left.

Walk down the mountain again.

Xu Xiuwen left more hurriedly this time than last time.

He had no time or energy to appreciate the scenery along the way.

Pedestrians on the road paid attention to him because of his speed.

The first time I walked, it took more than an hour to go down the mountain.

Half the journey works out to half an hour. But this time Xu Xiuwen only took ten minutes to reach the halfway point of the mountain.

There is a temple halfway up Tianyun Mountain.

When Xu Xiuwen passed by before, he noticed that there were many people, but he did not stop or go in.

Arrive outside Marriage Temple.

Xu Xiuwen hurriedly walked into the temple.

The Marriage Temple is like any other temple, with a gate and a long and wide stone road leading to the main hall inside.

There is an incense altar placed in front of the main hall, which contains incense candles offered by tourists.

Entering the main hall, there are huge Buddha statues in the room.

There is a back door on the left and right sides of the house, which seems to connect different directions.

Xu Xiuwen casually chose the back door on the left.

After passing through the back door, there is another stone path, and after a few steps, there is another room.

Xu Xiuwen walked in quickly.

There are still various Buddha statues placed in the house.

Xu Xiuwen took one look and quickly withdrew.

He went around to the back door on the right.

After passing through the back door, there is still a stone path.

At the end of the stone path is a stone bridge.

Under the stone bridge is a small pool.

When Xu Xiuwen passed by, he found two golden toads with open mouths in the pool. In and around the golden toads' mouths were various coins tossed by tourists.

This is a wishing pool often found in scenic spots.

Crossing the stone bridge, there is an open space similar to a square.

There is a dark brown alchemy furnace in the middle of the open space. The alchemy furnace is about 3 meters high.

On the right side of the alchemy furnace is a pavilion, and on the left side is a towering tree.

The big tree is old, very tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves. Under the tree are two rows of stone chairs.

Further ahead is the Guanyin Hall.

Guanyin Hall is a house structure hanging on the top of a mountain. There is a golden plaque hanging on the top of the red wooden door with four black characters "Guanyin Hall" on it.

Compared to the two previous Buddhist temples, the Guanyin Hall has a larger number of tourists.

Xu Xiuwen entered the hall and saw a statue of Avalokitesvara.

There is a long wooden table and two futons placed in front of the statue.

At this time, there happened to be two young people kneeling on the futon to ask for votes.

On the side of the main hall, there is also a middle-aged monk setting up a table to read fortune cards.

Xu Xiuwen looked around the house and did not see Xiao Youran.

He was a little disappointed.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?
  He refused to give up and walked towards the monk who interpreted the sign.

"Master, did you see a girl?"

The middle-aged monk had kind eyebrows. After hearing Xu Xiuwen's question, he asked: "Is it a girl wearing pink sportswear?"

Xu Xiuwen was shocked.

He hasn't told the other party yet what clothes Xiao Youran is wearing.

Xu Xiuwen ignored his surprise and asked quickly: "That's her. Master, do you still remember when she left?"

The middle-aged monk didn't answer and asked: "Who are you?"

Xu Xiuwen was stunned.

The middle-aged monk's gaze was a bit unbearable for him.

"I am her friend."

The middle-aged monk said: "That girl came here just now to ask for a fortune and left not long ago."

Xu Xiuwen quickly thanked him and planned to leave to chase Xiao Youran.

The middle-aged monk suddenly said something very incomprehensible.

Xu Xiuwen ignored the middle-aged monk's words.

He quickly exited the Marriage Temple and prepared to go down the mountain.

As a result, it stopped in place within a few minutes of walking.

He looked at the girl sitting on the stone steps in front of him.

Even if it's just a back view.

But he already recognized it, it was Xiao Youran.

"Xiao Youran!"

Xu Xiuwen shouted.

When Xiao Youran heard someone calling his name, he turned his head and looked back regardless of his grievance.

After seeing Xu Xiuwen, Xiao Youran was stunned for a moment.

She thought it was her eyesight.

I rubbed my eyes and realized it was really him!

Xiao Youran was extremely excited.

She suddenly stood up.

But he immediately let out another 'ah' sound and his body crookedly fell to the side.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and quickly grabbed the guardrail next to her to prevent her from falling.

She barely stood firm, immediately waved to Xu Xiuwen, and shouted excitedly: "Xiao Xu! I'm here!"

Xu Xiuwen walked over quickly.

"Are you OK?"

Xiao Youran said with a bright smile: "I'm fine."

Xu Xiuwen didn't believe her.

His eyes lingered on Xiao Youran's curled-up foot for a few seconds.

"What happened to your foot?"

Xiao Youran still wanted to hide it: "It's nothing."

Xu Xiuwen directly pressed Xiao Youran's shoulders and asked her to sit down.

Then he squatted on the step below her.

Before Xiao Youran could react, he took off Xiao Youran's shoes.

Then he took off the socks underneath.

Xiao Youran's feet were white and clean, but her ankles were red at the moment.

Xu Xiuwen held his ankle with one hand, pinched the top of his foot with the other hand, and turned it slightly.

Xiao Youran couldn't help but said "ah" immediately, with a look of pain on his face.

"Xiao Xu, it hurts~"

Before finding Xiao Youran, Xu Xiuwen was just anxious.

After finding Xiao You, Xu Xiuwen was angry and anxious.

He couldn't help but said: "You still know it hurts? Didn't you say it's okay?"

Xiao Youran was a little scared when he saw his serious expression.

She whispered: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you."

Xu Xiuwen was indeed very angry.

But the reason why he was angry was not that Xiao Youran lied to him, but that Xiao Youran came to ask for a marriage sign alone without telling anyone, which made him worry for so long.

Xiao Youran saw Xu Xiuwen's face was gloomy.

She hesitated for a few seconds, and finally stretched out her hand, grabbed the corner of Xu Xiuwen's clothes, shook it gently twice, and said softly: "I'm sorry, Xiao Xu, you can scold me, but please don't be angry with me. "

When she spoke, there was a hint of sob in her tone, as if she would cry at any time.

My foot was sprained, and I couldn't get down or get up. I didn't know anyone around me, and I didn't bring my cell phone.

She was scared and aggrieved at the time, and almost cried.

But fortunately, I was relatively strong and didn’t cry.

But now after seeing Xu Xiuwen, she saw that he seemed angry, and she was so worried that she almost cried.

Xu Xiuwen's heart suddenly softened.

The expression on his face instantly relaxed, and he said very gently: "I'm not angry, I'm just worried about you. You came here alone without saying a word. I almost thought you... If you have an accident, you let me How should I explain to Aunt Zhang?"

Only then did Xiao Youran understand the reason for his gloomy expression.

She felt guilty for a moment, lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Xu Xiuwen sighed and said, "If I didn't find you and you sprained your foot, how would you get down the mountain?"

When Xiao Youran heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

She raised her head, looked over again, and asked with surprise: "Yes, Xiao Xu, how did you know I was here?"
