There is a starving ghost in Qingyun Temple

Chapter 28 The boat returns 08
There is a large pool of black water in the northwest corner of the yard.

There were scattered dead branches and leaves floating on the surface of the water, which was dark and steep, like a pool of stagnant water.

"Why is there another big pool of water?" Liu Wei asked in confusion.

Shen Huihe raised his hand, closed his eyes and looked for the breath in the water. After a while, he opened his eyes again and shook his head.

"Ms. Shen, since I have received such news, there must be nothing wrong. Mrs. Shen, let's wait for now."

Liu Wei also added some words to the side and echoed: "Yes, yes, Mrs. Shen, our young master will not lie to you. How about we wait a little longer?"

Shen Huihe rolled his eyes at him and waved his hand reluctantly: "Then I'll just trust you again for the sake of little brother Awei."

"Thank you, Madam Shen. I will live up to Madam Shen's request." He cupped his fists and saluted, then turned and walked outside.

"Master, where are we going now?" Liu Wei asked curiously, following him step by step, not forgetting to take Shen Huihe's sleeve and go together.

"Go find someone."

Jialin Town in Cangzhou is an important town on the southwest border of Jiannan Road. Businessmen and tourists from the south and the north come in an endless stream.

I heard that these days are the extremely grand bathing festival of the local Yunnan and Yue people. The goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people has come to the world. Many tourists and businessmen come to worship the goddess. Some come to do business, and some come to play and join in the fun.

The three of them sat down at a simple tea stall in a corner of West Street. There were so many customers that it would be difficult to find an empty seat if it were later.

The diners around me were talking to each other, and the sky was filled with excitement, mentioning that the goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people came to the world, and that all the people offered sacrifices to the sky to pray for blessings.

"I heard that this year, Governor Yuan of Cangzhou Prefecture also personally came forward to preside over the goddess's blessing ceremony. I think this goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people is really very spiritual."

"Isn't that right!? Although Cangzhou Prefecture has been prosperous and stable in the past two years, shipwrecks occur frequently on the Cangjiang River. Even the official ship of the new county captain who took office less than two months capsized. Yuan Governor You must be anxious too!”

"Poor, pathetic"

"I heard from my cousin's third aunt's daughter's brother-in-law that there was a little mute in their village who was born dumb. The year before last, I was lucky enough to drink a few glasses of the divine water given by the goddess. The little mute could actually speak. It's really true. Gods are still alive." A scholar-looking Han gentleman lowered his voice and agreed.

A foreigner man opposite frowned and asked with some confusion: "Good brother, I heard that the name of this goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people has only become famous in the past two years. Could it be said that she is really a god who came to the world?"

"Whether it's true or not, we'll go to the river to join in the fun the next day. It won't be long before we have a quick look, hahahaha."

Liu Wei held his chin and stared at Mrs. Shen in front of him, his clear eyes filled with admiration and admiration.

In front of the low table for three people, there were fifteen empty soup bowls with not even the dregs left.Several passers-by around him were dumbfounded, and then hurriedly left in disgust.

"Master, Madam Shen, I have just inquired carefully. I heard that the goddess of the Yunnan tribe has been born in the past few days. If people in the world can be protected by the goddess, they will be able to have smooth sailing, wealth and peace throughout their lives!"

Shen Huihe stroked his round belly and let out a long sigh of relief with a smile on his face.Sure enough, the hot and meaty Tangzhongluowan was enough to satisfy her.

"Awei, do you also want to be protected by the goddess?"

Liu Wei was startled, glanced at the young master beside him, and shook his head violently: "No, I'm just curious."

Shen Huihe noticed the bewilderment in his tone, patted his shoulder carelessly, and said comfortingly: "Awei, you have to remember that everything depends on man-made things, and the situation is created by the heart. Don't rely on the uncertainty of reality in everything. Misty thoughts." Li Yun took a sip of tea and drank it like a bucket of cold water: "Ms. Shen's words are wrong. Success depends on people, and planning depends on heaven, but God takes the majority."

"Boss Li, can you hope for something better -"

At the same time, a plainly dressed guard came to Li Yun's side quietly.After the two of them whispered, the guard left quietly again.

Li Yun's dark eyes darkened and he led the two of them towards the east of the city.

The further east you go, the more sparsely populated you become and the vegetation is desolate, but there are more old, weak, sick and disabled women and men on the roadside, scattered and miserable.

"The east of the city? The east of the city is full of slums, and the owners of Debao Hall are in despair?"

Li Yun pursed his lips and said quietly: "We are going to Yizhuang in the east corner of the city."

Shen Huihe was shocked: "Yizhuang?! The owner of Debaotang passed away?"

"Ms. Shen, we'll find out when we get down."

In front of Yizhuang Gate.

In front of the door, there was an old man sitting bored on a wicker chair, waving a bamboo leaf fan with one hand, picking his teeth with the other hand, and humming a little tune.

As soon as the old man saw the three people in front of him, he said casually: "If you want to come to identify the body and collect it, you should first report where you came from!"

Li Yun, who was standing in front, smiled, took out a book of records from under his sleeve, and said respectfully: "Old man, Xiaosheng is from Chang'an, and I came here specifically to find my distant aunt Miao."

People from Chang'an?Shen Huihe was startled, and turned his head to take a look at the thing in his hand, but he raised his hand and blocked it tightly under his sleeve.

The old man who didn't care much at first shook his head and suddenly asked: "There are so many Miao girls in Dacangzhou! Which Miao girl is she from?"

"It is Mrs. Yu, Miao, the head of Debao Hall."

Before he finished speaking, the old man suddenly stood up from the wicker chair, took a few steps back at a loss, and stared at the three of them with fear: "De, Debaotang? You, you heartless relatives, how can you?" It’s here, hurry up, hurry up and take the people away!”

The old man didn't even take a second look at the certificate in Li Yun's hands. He called another boy in a panic and asked the young boy to take the three of them to the manor to find the person.

The boy touched the cold sweat on his forehead. He really couldn't shirk it, so he led the three of them inside with a wry smile.

"Little brother -" Shen Huihe stuffed a few copper coins into his sleeves very wisely and said pitifully, "Oh, Aunt Miao is our distant aunt, but what happened? Why are you all so avoidant? What if it’s not enough?”

The boy quickly collected the extra money, then saw that there was no one around, and said cautiously: "Well, Mrs. Yu has treated many people in our town, so, the boss of the villain doesn't know either. What should we do? Just place it in the Buddhist hall at the end of Yizhuang. Hurry up and take a look."

"If Aunt Miao died, it would be better to be buried in one place. Why was she specially placed in the Buddhist hall?"

"Little lady, you, you don't know something. Mrs. Yu, although she is dead and out of breath, but, she doesn't seem to be dead. But, it's mysterious!"
