I was born to be a supporting role

Chapter 70
"Lan Ruo Temple."

Ning Caichen's answer caused the entire court to panic instantly.

Yan Chixia stepped forward and grabbed Ning Caichen's arm.

"The one who died tonight is not a human being."

Ning Caichen had already had preconceived ideas, so he wouldn't believe it.

"I clearly saw you beheading that woman."

Yan Chixia sighed.

"That's a female ghost."

Ning Caichen took two or three steps back in shock, his face turned pale.

But this woman is clearly Nie Xiaoqian's younger sister.

Ning Caichen refused to believe it.

At this time, the county magistrate said in horror, "I don't care about ghosts. I only care about people's affairs. At worst, I will close the case for free."

As he said that, the county magistrate scrambled and ran into the back hall with the support of the master.

And all the servants also dispersed.

Ning Caichen looked up at Yan Chixia, still unwilling to give up.

"I know that woman. Her family lives behind Lanruo Temple."

Yan Chixia angrily grabbed Ning Caichen's collar.

"Where will people live behind Lanruo Temple? Behind that is the mass grave."

These words made Ning Caichen stunned, and suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart.

Yan Chixia continued: "Ghosts have haunted Lanruo Temple in recent years, and there is no living person living there. All the ghosts appear there. If you don't believe it, I will take you to see it. There are lonely graves there. "

Ning Caichen was a little convinced at this time, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.

Zhu Ming also echoed and said, "Ning Caichen, you weren't at Lanruo Temple during the day. I went to see it. It's really deserted and there are graves in the vicinity."

Zhu Ming's words made Ning Caichen even more helpless.

"Okay, let's go see it together."

At this time, Ning Caichen had no idea of ​​his own at all, lost his mind, and was dragged out of the county government office by Zhu Ming.

The three of them rode towards Lanruo Temple together.

Zhu Ming didn't know how to ride a horse. At this time, he could barely sit on the horse's back because of his lightness skills.

She didn't dare to gallop like Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen.

But Ning Caichen was absent-minded at this time, and the speed of the three of them was not fast.

Fortunately, the distance was not very far, and the three of them rode horses again.

It didn't take long for the three of them to arrive at the mass grave behind Lanruo Temple.

Ning Caichen looked at the familiar surroundings.

This is indeed where Nie Xiaoqian's house is.

It's just that every time I came here, there were houses here.

And now it's really overgrown.

There are graves hidden under the weeds.

These graves seem to have been left unattended for a long time.

Not only is it covered with dead grass.

And most of the tombstones are crooked.Some tombstones are even missing.

Ning Caichen only took a few steps before he saw a tombstone covered in dead grass.

There are two words hidden in it, Xiaoqian.

Ning Caichen tore off the dry grass, revealing the words on the tombstone.

Tomb of beloved daughter Nie Xiaoqian.

Only then did Ning Caichen believe it.

He muttered to himself: "Since Xiaoqian is a ghost, why didn't she kill me?"

Yan Chixia shook her head.

"I do not know either."

Ning Caichen suddenly saw Zhu Ming beside Yan Chixia.

I remembered what Ju Ming said back then.

"Master Xiahou, do you know?"

Ju Ming nodded.

"This Nie Xiaoqian passed by here with her father a year ago. As a result, Nie Xiaoqian fell seriously ill and died here. Her father had no choice but to bury her here first. However, her father also passed away not long after he left."

Both Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia looked at Zhu Ming in a daze.

Ning Caichen just asked casually.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ming really knew.

Although Yan Chixia had met Nie Xiaoqian several times, she knew nothing about Nie Xiaoqian's life experience.

Zhu Ming went on to say: "This Nie Xiaoqian was controlled by the tree demon here, and she was asked to help harm people. But this Nie Xiaoqian is kind by nature, and every time she feels guilty and blames herself in her heart. The reason why she doesn't harm you is not just because of her kindness, I'm afraid it's true." I just fell in love with you."

Ning Caichen's face suddenly showed joy.

"really?"

Yan Chixia frowned.

"Xiahou, don't just make up lies to deceive this kid just to make him happy. If he really believed your words and was killed by a ghost, that would be your sin."

At this moment, Zhu Ming laughed a little inscrutablely.

"Brother Yan, don't be anxious. I learned a simple arithmetic technique from an expert before, and it was quite effective."

"Ok?"

Yan Chixia looked at Zhu Ming, but said nothing.

But I still have doubts about Ju Ming's statement.

If it was someone else, Yan Chixia would definitely scoff.

But Yan Chixia still has some trust in Xiahou swordsman.

Yan Chixia turned her head to look at Ning Caichen.

"It doesn't matter whether that ghost likes you or not, but people and ghosts have different paths, and those ghosts have harmed countless people, so you should leave quickly."

Ning Caichen looked at Yan Chixia and Zhu Ming.

"What about you?"

Yan Chixia sighed.

"I'm tired of the intrigues in the officialdom, and I can save a few people by staying here."

These words made Ning Caichen feel admiration immediately.

For the first time, I feel that Yan Chixia's image has become taller.

At this time, Zhu Ming stood up.

"Brother Yan, Ning Caichen cannot leave."

"Ok?"

At this moment, both Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen looked at Zhu Ming.

Yan Chixia was puzzled.

Ning Caichen's mood was much more complicated.

On the one hand, it is fear, but on the other hand, it is also a little bit reluctant, especially knowing that Xiaoqian really likes her.

"Brother Yan, it is fate that Ning Caichen came here, and it will fall on Ning Caichen to eradicate the monsters in Lanruo Temple."

"he?"

"I?"

Both Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen looked in disbelief.

Ning Caichen is a weak scholar who doesn't know any spells.

It is estimated that any kid can kill Ning Caichen.

Ju Ming nodded.

"It's fate."

At this time, Ning Caichen also strengthened his determination to stay.

But Yan Chixia was still skeptical.

But Yan Chixia also wanted to understand.

"That's okay, this scholar doesn't know magic, and he has no power to restrain a chicken, so he can just lure those ghosts."

Ning Caichen's eyes froze suddenly.

Yan Chixia actually let herself be the bait.

But this is too dangerous.

Saying that, Yan Chixia handed Ning Caichen a bell.

"If what Xia Hou said is correct, then Nie Xiaoqian will definitely come to you at night, and I can use this to find those monsters and get rid of them."

Ning Caichen suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly asked for mercy.

"Can you not kill Xiaoqian?"

Yan Chixia sighed.

"I'll try my best when the time comes. There are many ghosts, and the tree demon is extremely powerful."

Speaking of this, Yan Chixia didn't continue, but the meaning was self-evident.

This made Ning Caichen suddenly feel uneasy.

"Then can you beat them?"

Yan Chixia suddenly became firm when she heard the words.

"Don't worry, I believe that evil will not prevail over good."

This gave Ning Caichen some confidence.

Yan Chixia gave Ning Caichen another book.

Ning Caichen opened the book curiously, but found that he didn't know the characters inside.

"what is this?"

Ju Ming also leaned over curiously.

Ju Ming looked familiar with these words, but he didn't know them either.

Yan Chixia explained: "This is the Diamond Sutra, written in Sanskrit."

Ning Caichen suddenly became curious.

"How do you read this?"

"Prajna paramita."

Ning Caichen waited for Yan Chixia to continue, only to find that Yan Chixia had closed her mouth.

"What about the back?"

Yan Chixia shook her head.

"I don't know Sanskrit, so I can only say this. But I know that the mind is calm and the spirit is natural."

Several people returned to Lanruo Temple, and Ning Caichen lived in the previous house again.

Yan Chixia pulled Zhu Ming, and the two planned to hide first.

This made Ning Caichen startled.

Hope both of them can stay.

Zhu Ming patted Ning Caichen on the shoulder.

"We stay here, those ghosts won't come out, don't worry, we are nearby, if any ghosts come, you will ring the bell."
