There is a starving ghost in Qingyun Temple

Chapter 21 The boat returns 01
Shen Huihe pursed his lips and took the item from his hand after a long while: "Don't try to trick me. If I let this poor man go to waste, you will definitely be unable to eat and carry around in the future."

He raised his handsome thick eyebrows and said in a slightly relaxed and happy tone: "Taoist nun is profound in Taoism, how dare I act so boldly."

"Thank you so much, Boss Li." She put the items into her bag carefully and expectantly, and her originally dim eyes seemed to be filled with a ray of light. With every blink of an eye, she gained a bit more vitality, "Then , Then I’ll take my leave, Boss Li. I’ll see you later——”

"Taoist aunt, I'm Li Yun, the warm sunshine." He paused, and although his voice was clear and cool, he said, "May I ask my aunt's surname?"

Shen Huihe was startled, his lips parted slightly, but he was the first to be interrupted by the man in front of him: "Taoist nun, you can't just make up a random name to deceive me. There are only a few famous Taoist temples in the world, I just need to make some inquiries. , then you can know whether what I said is true or false.”

She coughed, thinking to herself that Boss Li is really awesome!
"My daughter's surname is Shen, Shen, Shen Huihe. Her religious name is Miao'an Zhenren."

Li Yun smiled brightly, cupped his hands and saluted: "Thank you, Madam Shen. Madam Shen, see you later."

See you later? !Shen Huihe was in a daze, his fingers holding the talisman seemed to be trembling slightly, and he felt his heartbeat speeding up inexplicably.

Everyone she met wished she could leave quickly and wanted to see her again.No one has ever told her that we will see you later.

"Boss Li, we will meet later."

May, late spring.

The breeze in the mountains blows on your face, like a clever finger gently pushing aside the mist in the mountains, mixed with the fresh and refreshing smell of vegetation, flowers and vines.

At the foot of the mountain is the rushing river, like a tiger waving its claws and biting or a giant python roaring and exhaling. When you look down, you can see the fear and fear of hope.

Cangzhou is located to the west of Jiannan Road. It is a small state capital at the junction of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Nanzhao Kingdom.Cangzhou has a dangerous terrain, with mostly steep mountains, thousands of peaks and thousands of valleys.Zhouzhen is divided into two parts by the Cangjiang River, with mountains and rivers blocking the way, and people living on the rivers.

Shen Huihe traveled across mountains and rivers, and also caught two fierce ghosts in the mountains, accumulating two great merits.On this day, we finally arrived at Ningxi Ferry, one of the must-pass places on the way to Cangzhou.

There are two options to go to Cangzhou, land and water. However, the land route requires a bumpy journey over mountains and ridges, and will also be delayed for more than ten days.Therefore, many pedestrians choose to travel by water in order to save time.

However, this Ningxi Ferry is not as peaceful and peaceful as Wenmian looks.

The cold water of the Cangjiang River is rolling and surging, and it is difficult to hide and defend against the violent currents and hidden reefs.

Especially in the past two years or so, the weather has been changeable and the water flow has been unpredictable. Many people have had to be swallowed up and submerged under the angry water.I heard that even the ships of Cangzhou Prefecture officials were not spared and were often killed in the dangerous Cangjiang River.

It is now almost noon, the ship has docked, and pedestrians and tourists are flocking to the ferry to prepare to board the ship.

"Wuwu. I, I didn't steal anything. Wuwuwu." The child's cry became more and more sad.

"You two are the only poor people around here, and you are the closest to me. Who else could have stolen it if it wasn't you two bitches who stole it!"

"Auntie, I, I really didn't steal anything."

"This husband must not slander anyone. If you say that we stole something, you must have——" The middle-aged woman suddenly became anxious, "You, you can't do it, quickly, put down Zhen Niang——"

The quarrel and quarrel not far ahead intensified, mixed with the frantic pleas of women, the crying of young ladies, and the vulgar and unrestrained words of several elders.Shen Huihe didn't want to meddle in other people's business. As the crowd slowly passed by the group of arguing ladies and gentlemen, unexpectedly, she suddenly stumbled, and someone suddenly tugged at the hem of her white robe——

He actually fell down!

A sloppy little lady in coarse linen clothes raised her head timidly. Her round little face was also stained with a lot of mud and dirt. She must have traveled all the way and was covered in dust.Although he is only seven or eight years old, he still has some inexplicable heroic spirit with his crescent eyebrows and starry eyes.

Shen Huihe helped the little lady up with quick hands and eyes, and asked considerately: "Little lady, are you injured?"

The young lady held her hand back, was startled, and shook her head in a slightly jerky manner: "Thank you, thank you so much, madam -"

The arguments at the front became more and more exaggerated. Three or four rough men tightly surrounded the middle-aged woman in plain clothes. Among them was a man with a playful face, teasing the woman's waist and shoulders.

"Damn bitch, please return my money bag quickly."

"If you steal money, you have to pay it back! Otherwise, I'll use you to pay for it, hahahaha, although I'm always older."

"But that fair and tender little lady can also be sold for a good price, hahahaha."

One of them, a big man with a beard and a beard, came to Shen Huihe with a sneer on his face, trying to catch the crying little lady.

Shen Huiheyun lightly shook his sleeves and protected the young lady behind him.

"You, woman -" The vulgar man was startled and took a clear look at the pale face of the lady in front of him.

But fleetingly, he grinned widely, causing the big men behind him to ridicule and sneer, "Oh, here comes another nosy, little lady, I advise you not to meddle too much." No business, otherwise you won’t even know how you died!”

Shen Huihe raised his lips, and a cold smile appeared on the corners of his lips: "Mr. Lang is worrying too much. Even if you all die, my little girl will not die!"

"You——" The vulgar man was so angry that he kicked his nose and face, and tried to drag her away angrily.

Shen Huihe waved his hand to ward him off, led the young lady towards the three or four big men in front, and stopped beside the leading man.

"Several gentlemen keep saying that this young lady has stolen your money bags, but there are so many people coming and going here. Do you have any evidence?"

The strong man at the head snorted coldly, raised his nostrils and looked at her fiercely: "These two girls were the only ones closest to us just now, and this little bitch is still running around beside me, who else could she be if she wasn't them? "

"This gentleman can't talk about being a servile slave and let others hear you and think you are barbarians from the wild land of the southwest!"

As soon as these words came out, some people standing nearby and watching couldn't help but cover their faces and chuckle.

The Zhou Dynasty has been a civilized country for hundreds of years. It is not as barbaric and rude as the southwestern barbarians. Those Nanzhao people like to bare their breasts and eat with their hands, which is very vulgar and indecent.Such behavior is quite despised by the people of Zhou Dynasty.

"Huh -" she trailed off, leaning over to the man's side to look around, covering her face and shouting in feigned surprise, "What's wrong with your belt like this -"
