There is a starving ghost in Qingyun Temple

Chapter 32 Shen Tanwu 02
Li Yun looked at the two excited figures jumping up and down, smiled helplessly, and could only let them go.

"The goddess is here."

"The goddess is here"

"It's really the goddess who has arrived."

Someone not far away screamed in surprise, and everyone followed the sound and crowded forward.

Shen Huihe squinted her eyes and changed the formation with her fingers under her sleeves, so that she could clearly sense the aura and heavenly spirit of the person in front of her!

Not far away is a large wooden cart slowly pulled by three oxen. There are also six guardian monks wearing green and gray Buddhist robes from the local temple standing around it. Everyone is holding a blessing lamp with a lotus throne.

The wooden cart is surrounded by blue and white embroidered gauze with a unique rhombus pattern of the Yunnan and Yue people. It is swaying in the breeze and looks even more sacred and inviolable.
I think the person sitting in the middle is the goddess who has been passed down from generation to generation by the Yunnan and Yue people, but no one has seen her true face.

Shen Huihe narrowed his eyes and then sneered.

"The goddess bless you...the goddess bless you"

"The goddess must bless my grandson to be cured of his bad disease."

"Please Goddess, please Goddess, please protect my eldest son from crossing the river and returning home smoothly."

"I beg the Goddess to bless my little girl to find a husband of her choosing. My little girl is willing to eat fast and chant Buddha's name."

What followed was a wave of sobs and cries, which were earth-shattering and horrific. More and more local tribesmen and tourists were prostrate on the ground, kowtow and pray to gods and Buddhas.

Everyone wants something.

Shen Huihe and his party were pushed and pushed by the crowd to the corner of the west stall.

Liu Weidi looked east and west, his eyes gradually moved, and his eyes were filled with a thin red color. He unconsciously wanted to squat down and follow the people in front of him to kneel down and kowtow.

Shen Huihe was startled, and with quick eyes and hands, he held his arm and said unexpectedly: "Liu Wei, why are you kneeling?! Stand still for me!"

Liu Wei shook his head, glanced timidly at the gloomy-looking Lang Jun beside him, and still sobbed timidly: "Young Master, Shen, Madam Shen, I, I miss my brother, perhaps--"

"Awei, listen up, you don't even know whether the goddess Lao Shizi is a human or a ghost?! What's worth kneeling down on!"

"That's it, that's the goddess. Ah Weiding asked the goddess -"

"Liu Wei, that's not a goddess!" Shen Huihe became impatient.

Liu Wei wiped his red and swollen eyes and responded stutteringly: "No, if it's not a goddess, what else could it be -"

"What do you mean by Mrs. Shen's words?" Li Yun remained as calm and self-possessed as ever.

"The person sitting here is an evil ghost with an extremely turbid aura. She is not a goddess at all!"

Liu Wei's body trembled, and he clutched her wet sleeves in disbelief: "How, how is it possible? But, but the people in Cangzhou say that the goddess of the Yue people in Yunnan has blessed Cangzhou with good weather and calm seas for generations. How, how come--"

"Generations? I heard that goddesses have always been placed in temples in the past. In the past two years, some goddesses have been patrolling, praying for blessings and giving money."

"But, the locals say it's very effective -"

"Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism all say that a kind heart is beautiful, and a sincere heart is spiritual."

Shen Huihe took a deep breath, raised his hand to tighten his belt, and then reached out to press the small green sword in front of his collar and the talisman under his sleeve. Everything was ready.

"How confident is Madam Shen?" Li Yun said coldly, "There are many people here with mixed opinions. If Madam Shen is not completely sure, I'm afraid it's better to think long term." "If I were the only one, I might only be [-]% sure. , but-" She took out the plain ring and placed it on Awei's palm, "But if I have it, there may be a big change. You have to keep this ring, it will be big later. It’s useful.”

"Okay, okay, Ah Wei, keep it in mind." Liu Wei agreed in a daze.

Shen Huihe passed over the crowd of people who were lying on the ground and crying, waved his half-dry sleeves, and blocked the front of the ox cart, forcing the ox cart to stop.

"Huh?! Who is so bold? How dare you block the goddess' carriage?" The leading monk looked solemn and gloomy.

"I heard that the goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people has boundless magic power and protects all people. She is deeply respected and loved by the people of Cangzhou. I wonder if I am lucky enough to see the beauty of the goddess today?"

She had a bright smile and a clear and melodious voice. The people around her raised their heads in confusion, and some of the locals looked in the direction where she was speaking with fear.

"What a bad Taoist priest you are. You can't offend our goddess."

"That's right, if you disrespect the goddess, you will be struck by lightning from the sky and die badly."

"Oh, you little Taoist nun is ignorant, please kneel down."

The six guardians beside the bullock cart had expressionless faces and stared straight ahead. There was no movement in the embroidery tent.

"What? The famous and long-standing goddess of the Yunnan and Yue people dare not come out to see people? Could it be that she is as beautiful as a flower and is afraid of being missed by interested people? Or is it that the goddess is ugly and dare not come out to see people?" Shen Huihe specially teased He raised his voice so that the people around him could hear him clearly.

There was still no movement inside the oxcart rack.

"Aren't you all curious about what this famous and famous goddess is like?"

A few scattered tourists from other places reacted, slowly stood up straight, and looked forward, with a little more curiosity and hesitation in their eyes.

"Yeah yeah……"

"Have you ever seen this goddess..."

"No, no... I really haven't seen it before..."

Shen Huihe chased after him and said, "Maybe this Lao Shizi goddess is just fake -"

Rumble——

The expressions of the six guardians around her suddenly became ferocious and terrifying. The dark pupils seemed to be swirling and surging in a deep pool of water. They suddenly became like a white vortex in the depths of the Cangjiang River. A pair of white scale pupils turned towards her. Shooting out a sticky white spray of stinking water——

"Be careful!" Shen Huihe had already expected it, and he hurriedly waved seven or eight talisman papers from under his sleeves. No more, no less, they just stuck firmly to the wrinkled foreheads of the six guardians.

"Urgent as the law dictates! Reveal yourself quickly!"

The six guardians, who were originally human-like, suddenly grinned and their facial features were distorted, as if they had suffered great pain and couldn't help themselves.

The bones and muscles around them made strange and eerie crackling sounds, crackling and cracking, breaking into pieces of limbs connected to the muscles and bones, and their clean skin was covered with earthy gray spots.

"Yes, yes, it's a monster - help, help -"

"It's a monster—"

The people at the front were so frightened that their buttocks urinated, and they ran away in panic, shouting, and the front became a mess.

Liu Wei hurriedly kicked his feet to visit, suddenly trembled and hid behind Li Yun——
