Fiction: Group 3
'What are you doing?' Lovely inquired.
No response...
'Actually, this searching attracted me to go to each place and have a look, especially to Foshan and Hong
Kong. Moreover, I want to know more about their culture which seem interesting. However, we don't
have any money....' Carol mumbled.
The next day, Lovely led Carol to a place. It was deserted except for Lovely and Carol. The northern wind
blew over them. Lovely put her hands up and an odd light appeared in front of them.
'Let's go'
'Where?'
'Woo...That's amazing!' they screamed.
'Your power is wonderful.' Carol told Lovely.
'Where are we?'
'I think... this place is Foshan,' Lovely answered.
'In Foshan, Mount Xiqiao is a scenic spot. In total, there are 232 springs and 28 waterfalls
includingYunyafeipu. The scenery is spectacular. Today, Mount Xiqiao can be divided into 10 major scenic
spots. One of them is Nanghai Guanyin Culture Park which contains Guanyin and Baiyun Caves. Each
year, they attract many visitors.' Carol said.
'Next place!' Lovely yelled.
'Wow...'
'Let me check...This place is Zhongshan, one of the places in the Pearl River Delta Region.' Lovely said.
There were many shops and all the things near them were new.
Finally, Lovely used her power to transport them to Hong Kong. Carol was impressed by this
international city. They went to Causeway Bay by tram, an historic transport. The “Ding...Ding” sound
made them sleepy. They also visited different places such as The Peak, Victoria Harbour, the Avenue of
Stars, The Big Buddha...Finally, they went to Wong Tai Sin.
'Why did we come here?' asked Lovely.
'Don't you know? Visitors from other countries must go to Wong Tai Sin Temple. I have heard the people
who lived in our village said this temple is a place where people come for luck, to find out more about the
relationship between their family and friends, or to find love. They will pray to Wong Tai Sin, and they
believe that the god blesses them.' Carol answered.
Lovely and Carol bent over their body, picked up a bamboo cylinder, shook it three times, and an incense
stick dropped out of it. This culture is called
kou cim
. The stick is used in exchange for a piece of paper,
then the soothsayer will interpret the fortune on the paper.
'Oh gosh! What is the time now?'
Lovely looked at her watch and said, 'Six thirty. We need to go home now.'
When Lovely wanted to use her power, she felt dizzy but she didn’t care. They ran as fast as they could.
Finally, they arrived home just before dinner.
'Lucky.' They laughed.
After dinner, Bruce and Lovely went to their room...
'Where did you go today?' Bruce questioned.
'I went to Foshan and Hong Kong with Carol. It's amazing....' Lovely answered happily.
'That's enough! Bruce smashed the door which they stayed in and he sat on the chair.
'Did you use your power today?' Bruce looked at her.
'NO…NO... 'Lovely answered.
'One more chance.'
'Am... Yes...' Lovely whispered.
