1533.Chapter 1533: Mother, Is It Really Not Dead?
The fearless monk whispered: "Madam, is it true that she has become a bodhisattva." β
ββ¦β¦β
Originally, I just watched him go to the digging pit like that, and my heart was painful and sour, but when I heard the words of the fearless monk, I almost couldn't stop laughing.
The fearless monk looked at me: "Miss, what are you laughing at?" Madame, she is such a good person, and she has done so many good things, it's no wonder that she can't cultivate a bodhisattva! β
When I heard what he said, I only thought it was funny, so I said, "Uncle Fearless, if my mother really became a bodhisattva and showed up to help a rich lady deal with her marriageβthen why didn't her daughter come out to help after she was born and died several times before?" β
The fearless monk was stunned for a moment.
I laughed and shook my head, if my mother had really become a bodhisattva and had such supernatural powers, she should have come out to see me, especially when I was on the verge of dying of hunger in the cold palace, or when I experienced a catastrophe at sea and died.
Besides, there are many more important things in this world than some children's affections, wars that slaughter living beings, famines that cause thousands of miles of starvation, and there are few important things that are manifested by Bodhisattvas.
Therefore, I don't believe in the manifestation of the Bodhisattva.
If the spirit really manifests and does not care about big things, but cares about small things such as an unhappy marriage of a rich lady, then the Bodhisattva is really confused.
Hearing me say this, the fearless monk was stunned for a while, and then said softly: "Miss, you are really, not like a young lady." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Which young lady doesn't want to listen to the story of the Bodhisattva's apparition, and it deviates to you, this matter will be awkward."
ββ¦β¦β
I smiled: "I also liked to listen to it when I was a child, but it sounded like a taste when I was a child, but now that I have grown up so much and experienced so many things, if I still think about one thing like a child, then these decades will not be in vain." β
He also nodded: "Makes sense." β
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at me again: "Miss, what do you think about this matter?" β
I thought for a while, and then said, "The person who made this statue of the Bodhisattva must have seen my mother, otherwise he would not have made a statue of a Bodhisattva that looks like my mother for no reason." But when exactly I saw it, I'm not sure. β
The fearless monk said, "It has been eighteen years since Madame died, almost nineteen years. β
"Hmm."
"Miss, you heard the old woodcutter say that this temple was built ten years ago."
"Hmm."
This time, neither he nor I spoke again.
However, in each other's eyes, everything was already clear.
The fearless monk coughed, cleared his somewhat hoarse throat, and then said, "Miss, if Madam has not cultivated to become a Bodhisattva, is it possible, Madam...... No...... Death, ......? β
He said it with great hesitation, and it was hard for me to imagine that even a person like the fearless monk hesitated, but indeed, even if this idea did not dare to take shape in my mind, I don't know how many times, and I was quickly suppressed by myself, but when these words came out of his mouth clearly, I still broke out in a cold sweat.
These few understatement words rolled through my mind like thunder.
Mother...... Didn't ...... die?!
Not dead......
I didn't relax the hand that I was holding on to the fearless monk, but I reluctantly stood up and looked at a large dirt pit that had been dug out by him on the ground, and there was still smoke and dust around me, as if a cloud of fog was in front of my eyes, obscuring the truth.
Mother, is it really possible that she is not dead?
I knew about her passing, but I couldn't serve by her side, it was only when I returned to Shu last time that Aunt Hong told me what happened after her death, but in fact, I didn't see her body with my own eyes, and I didn't know where her spiritual seat was enshrined.
Is this qiΔ really able to point to an answer?
She, actually, is still alive.
Therefore, no one has ever seen her corpse, the Yan family did not enshrine her spiritual position, and even - ten years ago, someone saw her and made a statue of a Bodhisattva for her.
But, is this possible?
Not to mention that this is already a fact, if she is really not dead, just like I just doubted whether the Bodhisattva will really appear, she is not dead, then she should at least appear in front of her daughter.
Why in the past eighteen years, there has been no news, but a statue of a Bodhisattva hidden in the deep mountains and mountains has brought her news.
I think there are too many doubts about this matter.
Whether she is alive or dead, there are too many places for people to suspect.
At this time, the fearless monk also stood up, he reached out and grabbed my somewhat cold fingers, wrapped them in his palm, and said with some worry: "Miss." β
I glanced up at him and reluctantly smiled, "Uncle Fearless, I'm fine." Where are you going next? β
"Originally, the Sprinkle family planned to come here, and after seeing this Bodhisattva temple, they will find a way to find you, and there will be a war outside, so I don't worry about you, but now that I have met you, the Sprinkle family will be relieved, so I will follow you." Miss, where are you going? β
"That's right, I'm going to come here to clean up and go back to Bishan."
"Then I'll go with you."
"Okay."
The decision was made, we didn't stop any longer, but when we left, it was rare to see the fearless monk, a man with five big and three rough people, his eyes were red again, he reburied the pit with soil, and turned back step by step, until he could no longer see the Bodhisattva temple, he sighed and followed us.

Although it was a return trip, we walked much faster than when we came.
How much what happened here will be transmitted back to Bishan, Second Brother Zhao said before that some people have long been dissatisfied with Yan Qinghan's handing over the family business to Liu Qinghan, not only Chanjuan, but now it has changed hands to me in just ten days, I don't want anything to happen before I go back.
After traveling day and night, it didn't take long for us to enter the territory of Bishan.
In the distance, you can also hear the sound of water like a dragon roaring at the confluence of the two rivers.
I was sitting in the carriage, still thinking about how to go back and explain the matter, when I suddenly thought of something, so I opened the curtain of the carriage and said to the fearless monk who was riding next to us, "Uncle Fearless, let me ask you about someone. β
He turned to look at me, "Who?" β
"Wen Ruyu, have you heard of this person?"
"Wen Ruyu?"
The name made his thick black eyebrows furrow: "Miss, what are you asking about this person for?" β
I immediately perked up: "Do you really know? β
"It's not that I know him, but I know his family."
"Their house?"
The fearless monk said, "Miss, don't you remember?" They Wen family, they did things for your family back then. β
