Chapter 274
The temple is not big, except for a few incense stands and a table, which is the most conspicuous statue on the altar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info carefully looked at the face of the statue, but there were seven or eight points like Su Mo'er.
It was the first time that Su Mo'er had seen a statue so close to Nuwa's face, and there was also a small Nuwa temple in the capital, but the face of the statue was imagined by the people, and it didn't look like Nuwa at all.
Aunt Li first took a pinch of incense and lit it, respectfully bowed to the statue three times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner before turning to Su Mo'er and saying:
"Now you know why I brought you here! You look very much like Nuwa Niangniang, and you have that map in your hand, you are the destined person I have been waiting for. ā
"What kind of fate?"
"This has to start with my ancestors, the year when Emperor Kaizu ascended the throne, my ancestors came here to establish this village, and it was also at that time that there was this Nuwa Temple. ā
"I don't know when, Nuwa Temple began to have temple keepers. All of them were chosen from our clan, and they succeeded from the age of six until they found an heir. ā
"I am the last temple keeper in the village, if you don't come, the secret of this Nuwa temple will never be known again, because Zu Xun said that the temple keeper can only be his own people. ā
"Since I was a child, my mother told me that I must guard this temple well, and the things in it are very important, and I can't let the gangsters rob them. ā
"But I've never seen what it is, but I've obediently guarded this temple, and the temple keepers are usually women, so if you become a temple keeper, you are destined to become the most dazzling girl in the village. ā
"I have been guarding this temple for decades, and I am going to be impatient to keep it, and now that you are here, I will hand over the things to you, which can be regarded as a successful retirement, and I will live up to the entrustment of my ancestors. ā
After speaking, Aunt Li walked behind the statue, turned a mechanism, and a dark grid popped out from the foot of the statue, and Aunt Li took out a black wooden box from it.
Because of the age, the wooden box looks dull and dilapidated, Aunt Li blew off the dust on the wooden box, and her hands trembled a little, after all, she has been guarding this wooden box for decades, but she has never known what is in it, and her heart is excited for sure.
When Mrs. Li opened the wooden box, there was a ring made of stone, and the ring was engraved with exquisite patterns, but she couldn't think of what it looked like.
Su Mo'er just wanted to ask what this was, but the ring emitted a dazzling white light, and the three of them couldn't help but avoid their gaze.
Then, when he opened his eyes, he found that a text appeared in mid-air, which was an ancient text, and this ring could actually show the ancient text.
Su Mo'er couldn't understand it, she only understood two of the words, the key.
With these two words alone, Su Mo'er was excited, this ring turned out to be the key, and it turned out that the thin line meant that there was a key to open Wuling City in this temple.
The ring was originally made of stone, but now it has been replaced by an emerald green jade appearance, and it still emits green fluorescence.
Aunt Li looked at this ring, and suddenly laughed, her mouth seemed to be relieved, and shouted:
"Great, great, great, I can finally leave, I don't have to be stuck here. ā
"Aunt Li, what's wrong with you? are you okay?" asked Su Mo'er with some concern.
"Child, the eldest mother is fine, the eldest mother wants to thank you, you saved the eldest mother!"
"Auntie, don't scare me, this is a bit serious, why did I save you!"
"It's true, I've been trapped in this village for decades by this ancestral teaching, and I can't leave the village for a moment. Even if you marry, you can't marry your beloved, you can only be forced to marry that dead old man. ā
"This is my life, I admit it, isn't a woman's life just to marry someone and live a lifetime! But I won't forgive him, because of the child. ā
"That one, he and his wife are not good people, in order to have a son, he forced me to take some prescription, but the son was born, but I almost wanted half a day's life. ā
"Forget it, patriarchy, everyone will have it. But they shouldn't have done anything to my little daughter. ā
"They are all black-hearted demons, how old is my daughter! I have only been holding her for half an hour, and they have taken advantage of my weakness to fall asleep, and they have thrown my child into the mountains, where he has been gnawed by wild beasts until there is no skeleton left. ā
After speaking, Aunt Li squatted on the ground and cried, the heart-rending cry cried out of decades of grievances and resentment.
Because of the responsibility of this temple keeper, she wasted her youth and lost her daughter, but she still had to endure humiliation and sleep with the enemy.
Su Mo'er's eyes were red and red, and she walked over and squatted down as well, reached out to hold her shoulder, patted her shoulder and comforted her.
Aunt Li cried enough, reached out to wipe away her tears, barely squeezed out a smile to look at Su Mo'er, and said:
"Child, you are a good one, you can hold this thing well. I'm relieved, and it's time to leave the village. ā
"Aunt Li, are you leaving?"
"Yes, I'm leaving, I've never dreamed of leaving that black-hearted old man. The death of the son is retribution for him. ā
"What a wonderful man my son and daughter-in-law are! They are buried in the capital, I will go to guard them, and I can go wherever I want in the future, and no one can stop them. ā
"Auntie, if you really want to go, Xiaoni will honor you well, and we will also help you, just be happy. ā
"No, I don't need that Nizi to take care of me, it's good if she doesn't eat my flesh and drink my blood, she is the seed of the black heart in her bones, don't get too close to her, her heart is big!"
Su Mo'er was surprised that she commented on Li Xiaoni like this, not at all like a grandmother's attitude towards her granddaughter, it was completely a feeling of hatred.
On the contrary, Lin Moyu listened to this and looked thoughtful.
"Then it's not a way for you to be alone, otherwise, I'll introduce you to a place to go. One of my maids has been ransomed out of the house two years ago. ā
"She lives in a yard by herself, and she is also lonely, so you can go just right, and you can follow her to the restaurant to do things. You see, that's good!"
"Well, that's great, thank you, kid! I thought you'd give me some advice, after all, everyone thinks the past is over, and they don't know my pain as well as you do. ā
"Auntie, no matter what, what I insist on is that the child is innocent, and whoever hurts the child, no matter what the reason, what the hardship is, is wrong. I understand you. ā
Su Mo'er's words once again made Aunt Li burst into tears, and she couldn't stop nodding her head with a look of relief on her face.
In the end, Aunt Li said again:
"My little grandson is still a good one, I want to take him away with him while he hasn't been taught badly, it's good for you to help me!"
"Okay, I'll definitely help you, we'll go back and prepare now, and take you away in the evening. ā
"Well, the old woman is here to thank you for your great kindness. ā
As she spoke, she knelt down for the two of them, Su Mo'er wanted to stop her, but she stopped, just let Aunt Li feel better and express her gratitude.
"Child, when you go back, don't take Xiaoni, find a reason to keep her, and when I leave, you will let her go back. ā
"Also, no matter what wrong thing she does in the future, you can kill or scrape as you like, and don't worry about me. But please leave her a whole corpse. ā
Aunt Li's words were too serious, Su Mo'er didn't dare to nod, and Aunt Li didn't force it, so she left with them.
That night, Uncle Li didn't go home, and Aunt Li cleaned up. Lin Moyu let Fu Qi drug Li Xiaoni's food and make Li Xiaoni fall asleep.
Aunt Li's grandson was also poured a cup of drugged tea, and was carried into the carriage by Aunt Li in a coma. Lin Moyu left the blessings behind and left, Li Xiaoni was not easy to explain.
Lin Moyu personally drove the carriage, and took advantage of the night to set off in the direction of the capital with a few people.
Walked on the road for a night, because it was a night road, walk slower, until the next morning a group of people arrived in the capital, just the city gate to see, the group of people very smoothly came to the small courtyard where the snow lived.
It was Situ Yin who came to open the door, and when he saw the dusty group, he hurriedly led them into the house. Fallen Leaves went to find the falling snow, helped to boil hot water and make breakfast for everyone to eat.
Aunt Li's grandson woke up and found himself in a stranger's house, and he cried in fright. Later, after Aunt Li's scolding, and Su Mo'er took candy to tempt, it was finally quiet.
Su Mo'er explained to Luo Xue, Luo Xue said that she would take good care of Aunt Li and her grandson, Situ Yin was a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to behave in front of Luo Xue, so he could only practice his sword in the yard to get angry.
When Aunt Li's grandson saw it, he immediately liked it, and followed Situ Yin like a little fart, saying that he wanted to worship Situ Yin as a teacher, and Situ Yin was going to be annoyed to death.
Su Mo'er settled Aunt Li and followed Lin Moyu back, Falling Leaves left her behind, saying that after Aunt Li got used to it, she would go back to Lin Mansion, and Falling Leaves responded without objection.
