Chapter 39 Koi
The car stopped at the Martyrs Cemetery in Chang City. Fu Niannian took Lu Wu to the management booth and greeted the administrator familiarly.

The administrator opened the door and led them inside.

Fu Niannian didn't go inside. She stood at the entrance of the cemetery where all the tombstones could be seen. She squatted down and took out the gold ingot and incense candle.

Lu Wu glanced at the administrator at this time. The administrator seemed to be confused about where Fu Niannian's things came from, but he quickly regained his composure and didn't say much.

Fu Niannian took out another small incense burner. After lighting the incense candle, she bowed three times towards the Martyrs Cemetery, and then inserted the incense candle into the incense burner.

The administrator quietly brought a copper basin and placed it in front of Fu Niannian. Fu Niannian knelt down and began to burn the ingots.

When the ingot was halfway burned, Fu Niannian began to recite "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra".

[The supremely profound and subtle Dharma has been encountered for hundreds of thousands of eons. Now that I have seen and heard it, I have accepted it and upheld it, and I wish to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata. 】

[I have heard that for a time the Buddha was in the Trayasa Heaven, preaching the Dharma for his mother.At that time, in the indescribable worlds of the ten directions, all the Buddhas, as well as the great Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas, gathered together to praise Sakyamuni Buddha for his ability to manifest the power of inconceivable great wisdom and supernatural powers in the evil world of five turbidities. Subduing strength strengthens sentient beings and knows the laws of suffering and happiness. 】

Lu Wu was stunned for a moment when he heard Fu Nian reciting Buddhist scriptures, and looked at her in surprise.

Before, when she was reciting the Taoist "Supreme Suffering Sutra" in the suburbs, he thought that all she learned was Taoist knowledge, but he didn't expect that she could also learn Buddhist scriptures.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra" is very long. It took Fu Niannian a full hour and a half to finish it. After she finished reciting, she stood up and bowed three more times toward the inside. The administrator and Lu Wu followed her. Bowed three times.

Fu Niannian put away the incense burner, returned the copper basin to the administrator, and walked outside side by side with Lu Wu.

After walking in silence for a while, Lu Wu glanced at her and asked, "Why are you reading Buddhist scriptures this time?"

Fu Niannian looked back at him: "Last year I recited Taoist scriptures, so this year I recited Buddhist scriptures. I'm afraid they will get tired of hearing one kind of scripture all the time."

Lu Wu laughed dumbly, never expecting this to be the reason.

After Fu Niannian answered him, she fell silent again, obviously because she had just come out of the Martyrs Cemetery and was still in a very low mood.

Lu Wu started talking again: "Do you know that the Ten Palaces of Yama are actually Buddhists? The Emperor of Beiyin in Fengdu who is in charge of them is a Taoist."

Fu Niannian turned to look at him and nodded: "Well, I still know Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu."

Lu Wu was really surprised now. He had never seen the legendary Emperor Fengdu Beiyin before. He had seen the Tenth Palace Yama before, but he had heard what Fu Niannian meant before. The Tenth Palace Yama had already It's a thing of the past, there's only one Hades now.

"Do you still know the Great Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu? Yama of the Ten Palaces is gone, but he is still there?" Lu Wu asked.

Fu Niannian nodded: "It's still there, but now in another form. If we go to the underworld later, I will explain to you. Things in the underworld are not easy to discuss in the earth."

Lu Wu nodded and wanted to say something else to divert her attention, but before she could speak, Fu Niannian realized: "Are you worried about me?"

Lu Wu paused and said with a smile: "You saw it."

Fu Niannian also smiled, feeling a little more relaxed for some reason.

"I'm fine, it's just that these martyrs in the Martyrs Cemetery are different from the ones we saw before."

Lu Wu: "What's the difference?"

Fu Niannian lowered his head to look at the traces of light at his feet, and sighed: "Most of them don't have bones inside."

Lu Wu stopped and looked back at her.

Fu Niannian's whole body seemed to be broken. When she said this, her voice was very soft and her tone was calm, but she still couldn't hide the desolation and sadness in her eyes.

Lu Wu's Adam's apple rolled, and he reached out and patted her head to comfort her.

Fu Niannian raised her head to look at him, then quickly lowered her head.The two people walked forward in silence.

Lu Wu thought that when he met her for the first time, she actually didn't want to bring his trouble back and simply rejected him. But when he said he had nowhere to go, she hesitated.

Although she later compromised for the jade ring, she is actually a little girl who easily softens her heart.

Many times later, it was because of her soft heart that he was able to stay by her side.

So today's scene, he was a little surprised, and he felt suddenly that this was the real her.

-

After the two returned to the hotel, Fu Niannian locked herself in the room.

Lu Wu didn't say anything. He just leaned against the door of her room and stood at the door for a long time. He didn't go back to the room until dawn the next day.

Later, Fu Niannian took Lu Wu to the suburbs of several cities and to the martyrs' cemeteries, and he discovered that even now, the traces left by that war are still indelible, and the damage has not disappeared.

Two months later, Fu Niannian took Lu Wu back to the capital.

After getting off the plane, Fu Niannian took Lu Wu by car and went straight to Zhaoyao Mountain.

Fu Niannian directed the driver to drive directly up the mountain. The driver dropped them off and went down the mountain. When he turned around at the bottom of the mountain, he inadvertently looked back and found that the road on the mountain was gone.

He rubbed his eyes and looked again, and found that there were no paths except for a few big trees.

The driver broke into a cold sweat for a moment. He stepped on the accelerator and left quickly.

After Fu Niannian and Lu Wu returned home, they walked around the house and felt that there was no smell anymore, so they went to take a shower.

Fu Niannian moved to the second floor, and Lu Wu chose the room next to her.

There is a large connecting balcony on this side of their rooms. There are tea tables, rocking chairs and indoor swings on the balcony.

Fu Niannian dried her hair and sat on the rocking chair, closing her eyes and falling asleep.

After a while, the balcony door next door opened and Lu Wu walked out.

Fu Niannian ignored him, and Lu Wu didn't say anything.

After a while, Lu Wu suddenly said: "The koi in your pond seems to be dead."

Fu Niannian immediately sat up: "How do you know?"

Lu Wu pointed to the pond: "It's floating on top with all its belly turned over."

Fu Niannian got up from the rocking chair, walked to the guardrail and looked down.

The lotus flowers in the pond were no longer blooming, so she could clearly see that the koi fish inside were indeed dead.

Fu Niannian clicked her tongue and felt a little strange: "It shouldn't be. I calculated it before when I decided the location of the pond. This pond should not raise the koi to death."

Fu Niannian walked downstairs as he spoke, and Lu Wu followed.

When they got to the pond, Fu Niannian fished the koi out of the pond and stared at the koi's body. She suddenly fell silent.
