Pick up an abandoned child and overwhelm the world

"Huh..." Cheng Ning looked at the road ahead where the vegetation was getting more and more luxuriant, stood there and took a breath, the surroundings were very quiet, the closer to the depth of the forest, the more there were no extra birds and insects, Cheng Ning Ning wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to himself: "Should... it's near here, right?" Cheng Ning walked forward a few steps, and suddenly saw a strange place in front of him Cheng Ning was so overjoyed that he didn't bother to cut the thorns, and walked over quickly. When he walked over and saw the whole picture, Cheng Ning immediately affirmed that this was the center of the forest. .

Logically speaking, shouldn't the deepest trees in a forest be the tallest and most lush?

However, this forest is the complete opposite!

Cheng Ning is now standing in a large piece of wasteland where there is no grass growing, and the soil under his feet is almost gray to black, and there is a faint stench in the air. Cheng Ning didn't notice it at first, but then he suddenly thought of it. What, not only didn't continue to cover his nose, but he even sniffed around vigorously, and found that the stench was coming from a certain direction. Cheng Ning walked over following the smell, but before he had walked a few steps, he suddenly didn't know what to do. Something fell down, suddenly "Ouch", fell straight down, rolled two times towards the slightly sloped side, until it stopped, Cheng Ning opened his eyes to see, the next moment, Cheng Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide, The strong stench caused Cheng Ning, who hadn't gotten up from the ground, to turn his head, and immediately retched and vomited: "Wow, vomit... um...that smells so bad, how could it be... vomit..."

While retching, Cheng Ning looked over again:

Not far from there, there is a small fault next to where Cheng Ning accidentally tripped and rolled down a small slope just now, and under that fault, there is a seemingly not deep crack hidden, and the stench The source of this is the crack, but Cheng Ning is not only retching from the stench at this moment, but he saw a black and rotten half corpse outside the not deep crack...

"This... vomit, is it Mrs. Liu?" Cheng Ning retched all the food he ate last night, then looked weakly at the crack and said to himself, and then retched for a long time Yes, Cheng Ning got better, and then he got up, and walked to the edge of the crack, the stinky Cheng Ning could hardly breathe and felt the stench. It's not big, the upper body of this corpse is not completely put in, only the lower body is left in the gap... It can also be said that it is in a shallow pit, and I don't know where the stagnant water soaked the rotting corpse. The stench is even more disgusting. .

"Sorry, I'm sorry..." Cheng Ning said politely, reached out and grabbed a small wooden stick, carefully squatted beside him, pinched his nose with one hand, and lifted the arm of the corpse with the wooden stick. It broke when touched, and the long hair spread out messily, as if wearing a layer of silk clothes on the corpse. Cheng Ning recalled the details of Mrs. Liu's burial that he had inadvertently learned, so when Cheng Ning When Ning carefully tried to identify the blackened and decayed black embroidered peony brocade robe that had been soaked in corpse fluid among the rotting corpses, Cheng Ning sighed and said to the corpse: "Madam Liu, let You suffer!"

"Huh-wow~~~~"

Suddenly, the wind blowing from nowhere suddenly blew through the surrounding treetops, bringing up the sound of "cracking" in the middle of the forest where only Cheng Ning was alone, it was weird and scary.

Cheng Ning, who hadn't encountered any wind in the woods for three days, took advantage of the stench in front of him to be blown away by the sudden wind, Cheng Ning looked up and looked around, then lowered his eyebrows and said to the corpse in front of him: "I I know that your soul has been imprisoned here and cannot leave, and I know that you are by my side now, but please rest assured, since I have come to look for you, I will definitely not let you stay here, but I hope you are listening After telling me what happened next, calm down a bit, you are trapped in a place where the rotting body stinks but you can't even provoke mosquitoes, this is already very dangerous, but you have not become a villain by virtue of a little obsession. Ghost, so, I hope that after you learn what I'm going to say next, you can calm down and rest assured that I can't do anything to frame you and your family, but one day, I will make them pay the price Yes, please trust me!"

There was another rustling sound from the treetops, as if answering Cheng Ning's words.

"After you passed away and were buried..." Cheng Ning said slowly, taking out a stack of cloth from his bosom, spreading it on the ground, and covering Madam Liu's body respectfully Little by little, he picked it up from the shallow pit and placed it on the cloth until he picked up the last piece of bone... The white brocade fabric also turned black, Cheng Ning didn't mind, and at the same time he finished talking about the Liu family, unexpectedly Surprisingly, the shaking of the treetops was not intense, but continuous, as if... crying!

"Your body is here, so as long as I leave the forest with your body, your soul will come out, so now..." Cheng Ning stood up, saluted the remains and said: " I'll take you home now!"

Carefully wrapped up the remains, Cheng Ning carried them on his back. It wasn't heavy at all, but it smelled bad. Cheng Ning endured the stench and walked back a little bit.

When he walked out of the woods, it was past noon. Cheng Ning glanced back at the silent woods, then up at the cemetery that could not be seen from above. Gui fell into the depths of the quagmire, and this is something that only priests can understand and do.

Therefore, Cheng Ning is very curious now, besides Mu Jinqian, who else has such ability?

Could it be that there is a priest hiding in the darkness in Zhusui City?

Cheng Ning didn't know, and he hadn't heard from his master, but the current incident forced Cheng Ning to have such doubts.

……

The horses were at the foot of the mountain, but Cheng Ning didn't go down the mountain until it was almost dark, and then rode back to the city before the city gate closed, and knocked on the door of Liu's house in the dark!

When the members of the Liu family saw Cheng Ning carefully take off the package on his back and opened it in the mourning hall, all the people present were stunned, and then they cried, and Cheng Ning was even more shocked. The current head of the Liu family stopped him and forced him to bear the kowtows from everyone in the Liu family.

Cheng Ning, who was in a mess, couldn't sit or stand, and finally could only bear it silently. He knew that if he didn't bear it, everyone in the Liu family would feel bad about it!

This night, the Liu family was naturally busy all night, and Cheng Ning also helped out until late at night, but the next day, Cheng Ning got up early in very solemn clothes and went out, but just as soon as he went out, he found Wen Jing also packed up and was waiting for him, Cheng Ning smiled, took him out together, and went to Liu's house again.

Today is the day of the Liu family's funeral!

However, when the funeral was formally held under the auspices of Cheng Ning, outsiders were surprised to find that it was not one coffin, but two coffins.

It doesn't matter after people inquired about it. After this inquiry, outsiders were shocked to learn that Mrs. Liu's body was found that she didn't even find in the yamen. So, this time, I went to the funeral with my husband!

The simple funeral, because the abbot is a young priest who is currently in the limelight in Zhusui City, has attracted a lot of discussion, and it spread throughout the entire Zhusui City in half a day.

The cemetery was chosen by Cheng Ning himself. It is on another hilltop of Zhusui Mountain. It is a good blessing for future generations. Although it is not as good as the original one, within Cheng Ning's range, Cheng Ning has found the best The husband and wife were buried together, and then according to Cheng Ning's instructions, a lot of saplings were planted around the cemetery on the spot!

After the end, the members of the Liu family decided that, in order to prevent what happened last time from happening again, people would take turns to guard them every day recently. Cheng Ning also agreed with their words, but he also said that as long as seven or seventy-nine days passed, the Well, it will be useless even if what happened last time happened, the other party will not succeed!

The Liu family was very grateful for what Cheng Ning had done, and said that if Cheng Ning needed help in the future, he would do his best to help him. The matter was resolved, and Cheng Ning was in a good mood. He said jokingly, then I made a note of it, and then talked casually with the members of the Liu family. In the end, I still politely declined their invitation to entertain him, and took Wen Jing back to Mu's house.

"Go ahead, I'll go to my master's side first!" Cheng Ning said to Wen Jing as soon as he entered the door, and hurried to Mu Jingan's other garden, It seems that after Cheng Wei blocked Xu Xun's apprentice, the number of times Mu Jingan didn't return home after going out was much less. This evening, Cheng Ning found his master in the study. Asked: "Did you choose the place where Mrs. Liu's body is located? Does this matter have anything to do with you? Or... did you do it?"

Today, Cheng Ning had a good chat with the Liu family. They also said that there was no other priest in the city except Mu Jingan, so Cheng Ning endured it for a day, and finally decided to come back and ask Mu Jingan directly. Didn't he do it?

Mu Jingan should be settling accounts, so he raised his head and said in surprise, "Do you think I would do such a thing, do you think I am that kind of person?"

"No..." Cheng Ning had no choice but to answer honestly.

Indeed, although Mu Jinqian is very unreliable, he is a person who will never do anything harmful to nature!

"Then why did you come here angrily to question me?" Mu Jingan said angrily, lowered his head and continued to settle accounts.

"But..." Cheng Ning hesitated, and finally told about Mrs. Liu's affairs one by one. After speaking, he looked at Mu Jingan and said, "Look, you are the only priest in Zhusui City, and you were the one who helped them at the beginning." Looking at the cemetery, you said that this matter has nothing to do with you, you let me... Master?" Cheng Ning was talking, when he suddenly found Mu Jingan looking at him with a dull expression, as if his thoughts had wandered away, Cheng Ning went up Qian called out in surprise, "Are you alright?"

"Ah, oh, no, nothing..." Mu Jinqian's expression was obviously abnormal, but before Cheng Ning was about to find out, he jokingly said: "What's so strange? Since you are doing such a thing, then you can't let Zhu The people in Suicheng know it, so..." Mu Jin laughed dryly, looked into Cheng Ning's clear eyes, seemed serious, but also said casually: "What if it's not necessarily the priest who came out?"

"Elsewhere?" Cheng Ning was surprised.

"That's right!" Mu Jin smiled and lowered his eyebrows, avoiding the look in Cheng Ning's eyes: "Think about it, as long as Huabi gets a little bit of benefits from now on, he can get countless rewards , So, if it were me, in order not to be discovered by the townspeople, I would also invite a priest from other places to do these things! And you know, we are in the north, even if we people from the Central Plains invite Now, it is not difficult to sneak a foreign priest secretly, money can turn ghosts, as long as you have money, what can't you get in this world?"

When Cheng Ning heard it, he suddenly realized: "It makes sense!"

"So, don't get entangled in this matter. I can't do anything. What can you do? And..." Mu Jingan said, looked up at Cheng Ning and laughed, "I suddenly found that you, as my apprentice, Be careful in the future, think about the fact that you ruined someone's good deed this time, they must hold a grudge, and maybe they are thinking of how to get revenge on you, so don't lose your life so easily!"

"—" Cheng Ning's mouth twitched, "Are you cursing me?"

"No, I'm just telling the truth!" Mu Jinqian said solemnly: "So, as your master, I suggest that you don't go out less recently, it's better not to go out, lest you have something to do later, that little bastard Why don't you eat me when you come back?"

"..." Cheng Ning felt inexplicably in a good mood when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and said, "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore, I'm tired and I'll go back first!"

After speaking, turn around and go outside...

"Ziqian!"

When Cheng Ning walked to the door, he was suddenly stopped by Mu Jingan, and Cheng Ning turned around in surprise: "Is there anything else, Master?"

At that moment, because Cheng Ning was a little far away and a little tired, he didn't see the depth and solemnity in Mu Jinqian's eyes. He only heard Mu Jinqian paused, and said to him with a smile: " It's nothing, I just suddenly feel... don't be too tired, take a good rest, take good care of yourself, don't let yourself have something to do, if you have something to do, you... your master will be sad..."

Master, naturally refers to Wen Yuxuan, Cheng Ning's first master!

Cheng Ning was stunned, not understanding what happened to Mu Jingan today, but he nodded and said, "Well, I see, so I'll go back first?"

"Go!" Mu Jingan looked at him and nodded.

Until Cheng Ning's back disappeared into the courtyard, Mu Jinqian in front of the desk in the study suddenly dropped the brush in his hand, but Mu Jinqian's hand tightly grabbed the white paper at hand, and his expression suddenly turned cold As for the murderous intent, a sentence almost escaped from his teeth: "You...you have done too much! I will write down this account for you first, and one day, I will ask you to pay it back a hundredfold!"
