Hey!Your patron saint of the underworld has been revealed!

Chapter 14 Cause and Chance

"Qiu Zhuo! Do you know that your mother shed tears all day long because of you? We have raised you for 16 years, and this is how you repay us?"

The middle-aged man looked at the most familiar yet strangest son in front of him angrily, and he really didn't know what to do.

However, Qiu Zhuo seemed completely unable to see his parents' pain and said bluntly: "Donor, I have escaped into Buddhism and there is no way I can turn around in this life."

"You, you..." The middle-aged man pointed at Qiu Zhuo and was speechless.

The middle-aged woman on the side looked at Qiu Zhuo, tears falling down her face, and she was extremely sad.

"Two benefactors, I am Lian Qing's senior brother, my name is Lian Jue. Why don't you follow me to see the abbot first, and then come back to talk to Lian Qing."

The fat monk who had just come in was a little at a loss when he saw this situation, so he could only bite the bullet and complete the task assigned by the abbot.

Fortunately, the two middle-aged men didn't bother too much. They thought that it was difficult to persuade their son, so they had no choice but to start with the abbot, so they were anxious to see him.

Before Lian Jue went out, he didn't forget to turn around and ask, "Do you really have nothing to do with this female donor?"

Qiu Zhuo said firmly: "Senior brother, this is a misunderstanding."

Lian Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good!"

After the three of them went out, 371, who was sitting aside watching the show, came back to his senses, jumped to Shi Erruo's side, and said with emotion: "From ancient times to the present, people in the world of the world have always had a negative attitude towards the matter of their relatives becoming monks." With an attitude of being in danger, the reaction of the couple just now is really not surprising."

"Oh, humans, so boring!"

Shi Erruo waved her hand and was about to leave. She wanted to continue looking for the wind-eating ghost, and also went to the Temple of Wealth to ask the City God what happened in the underworld, and how could the passage from the underworld to the underworld appear for no reason.

She glanced at Qiu Zhuo, called out the black cat in front of him, and warned the guilty black cat, "We must find the ghost this time, and don't lead him the wrong way again!"

Then, he left the house in a swaggering manner, leaving Qiu Zhuo alone.

The black cat took Shi Erruo out of the small courtyard. The sky was getting brighter. Several pilgrims had come to the temple. They were scattered in various places, raising incense and worshiping the Buddha statues. They looked pious, but they didn't know that they were seeking high-ranking officials. Houlu still lives a long life.

Unexpectedly, along the way, he passed by the guest reception hall. Shi Erruo caught a glimpse of Qiu Zhuo's parents through the window frame.

She didn't want to pay attention to it, but she overheard something related to herself.

Qiu Zhuo's father said with excitement: "We have made an engagement for him. He is a girl from the Shi family in the village. We specially went to the Northeast to ask an expert to see how my son could become a monk now when he is destined to be married." Woolen cloth?"

"Shhhhh-!"

Shi Erruo signaled Black Cat and 371 to stop, and she slowly moved under the outer wall of the guest hall window, secretly listening to the conversation inside.

An old monk in dark robes said something to Amitabha and said gently: "Donor, have you ever asked what Lian Qing's marriage is?"

Qiu Zhuo's mother's eyes froze, and she seemed to have some thoughts, "What do you mean by this? Our son's marriage is not a human being, how can it be a ghost?"

The old monk smiled and said, "The donor should understand what I mean. For Lianqing, becoming a monk is the best way. We all understand that we are saving him. He has extremely heavy karma, even if he is a Buddhist Even a pure place may not be able to resolve this calamity, let alone being in the rolling mortal world."

Qiu Zhuo's mother seemed a little shaken, but his father became angry. "There is no cause and effect, don't pretend to be a fool with me! I feel like my ears are getting calluses when you talk about trying to bully people into becoming monks. Now I only want one result, that is, Qiu Zhuo must go home with us! We have a son What is the difference between a person who has been raised well and a monk who has not been raised?"

The old monk shouted "Amitabha" again, which made Shi Erruo think that perhaps "Amitabha" was just a verbal disease that every monk would be infected with.

"Donor, why don't you do this? Recently, there have been several public cases in the Buddhist world. This is a great opportunity that is extremely rare to encounter in thousands of years. If Lian Qing joins and accumulates enough merit, he may be able to withstand the disaster. People involved in the public cases will meet by fate. The clouds are treacherous, and it is unknown if he can resolve his fate in this life, and then he can go down the mountain and enter the world of mortals again."

"Okay! Okay!" When Qiu Zhuo's father heard this, he was so excited that he agreed.

His mother was a little hesitant, "Is there any risk in this matter?"

"Amitabha." The old monk spoke again, "Donor, there is no risk in the path people take or the things they do in this world. It's just that when the time comes, the result will be destroyed."

When Erruo was listening sadly, suddenly a young monk approached the window and closed it. She was afraid of being discovered, so she ran away decisively.

The black cat felt a little sleepy after waiting. He squatted on the railing, yawned, and curled his tail.

The dark face of 371 on the side showed a gloomy look. His mood was really low, and he said in a waning mood: "Can we still find the wind-eating ghost? That guy is too cunning. We just used food to lure him, he must improve." If you are alert, block your nose with sesame oil and you won’t be able to smell it! Although this temple is not big, there are too many places for a ghost to hide. And when I just chased him, I found that he was obviously obsessed with the temple. The pattern is very familiar and we can’t find him at all!”

Shi Erruo leaned against the red painted pillar and raised his eyebrows, "In that case, let's solve the problem in another direction."

371 asked: “What do you mean?”

"If you think about it carefully, why does the Wind-eating Ghost want to provoke you, the Black Impermanence, when he is just a good ghost?" Shi Erruo looked 371 up and down, "Although you are weak and inexperienced, you are still good at all. The official ghost servant in the underworld, even the lowest level, he is just a ghost, why would he provoke you if he has nothing to do?"

371 clenched his fists in front of his chest and couldn't help but say: "Are you analyzing the problem, or are you trying to belittle me in a different way?"

Shi Erruo leaned against the pillar and shook his legs, and said matter-of-factly: "Aren't the questions I analyzed and my evaluation of you not to the point?"

"Hey!"

371 had nothing to say and could only sigh heavily.

He thought for a moment and said distressedly: "Actually, I don't know why that wind-eating ghost wanted to steal my soul-binding lock. It's useless for him to steal this thing!"

Shi Erruo said: "Please describe in detail the scene when the lock was stolen."

"I remember that the night was very dark, and the shadows of the trees in the forest were shaking violently in the moonlight. The wind must have been strong, and the surroundings were quiet. I wanted to seduce someone. That was the first time I was asked to act alone. task, so I’m very nervous..."

Shi Erruo suppressed his anger and closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then resisted the urge to fight the ghost, "Let's get to the point! I asked you to be careful not to miss any details. You and I are writing prose here!"

"Oh, I don't know what the point is, so I just said it all." 371 said with a guilty conscience.

"Let me ask you, when the wind-eating ghost came to steal your lock, were you anxious?"

371 nodded sharply, "That's not because I'm very anxious, that's because I'm dying of anxiety!"

"So..." Shi Erruo analyzed, "I suspect that this wind-eating ghost has a special relationship with Li Jingfei. He probably stole your soul-binding lock to protect Li Jingfei's soul from being seduced by you."
