In the middle of the night, the young man carefully avoided the house with the dog according to his impressions of the day, and touched the house that the goddess had said.
It was dark, and only a crescent moon shone some cold moonlight to see.
The youth glanced under each window, and from the third window it could be seen that a man was lying on the bed. Although he couldn't see it clearly, the white cloth strips on his arms made him think that it was Su Wen.
Carefully pried the window open with a dagger, held three jet-black daggers with only a silver glimmer at the blade, and took a deep breath before gently tapping the handle of the dagger on the window frame twice.
After a while, as if the person on the bed was not responding, the young man tapped the window frame twice, this time louder.
This time the person in the bed seemed to be alarmed and sat up from the bed.
At this moment, the young man also moved, and the three daggers in his hand turned into three silver threads and went straight to the throat and chest of the person sitting up on the bed.
From the young man to the flying knife shooting at the person on the bed, it was only for a moment, and because the three daggers were completely black, only a flash of light at the edge of the blade was extremely difficult to detect.
The "middle" young man said silently in his heart, at a distance of five or six meters, the power of these three flying knives is not weaker than that of guns, and they can directly pierce wooden targets. And the speed is like lightning, coupled with the protective color of darkness, there are few people in this world who can avoid it all. And those few people definitely don't include this monk.
Just when the young man watched how the three flying knives pierced the opponent's vital point, the person on the bed just tilted his head, and at the same time turned his arms up, and there were two soft sounds, "bell, bell", and the two flying knives that shot at his chest were directly blocked.
Su Wen didn't need to dodge the three daggers, he just needed to dodge and shoot them into the throat. The other two can be blocked with both arms, and it is enough to touch the edge of the knife to disrupt the stability of the flight.
The flying knives whirling in the air could not cause any damage except to tear Su Wen's clothes.
The sharpness of the three flying knives can only be regarded as good, and what is even more dangerous is that the pitch-black blade is difficult to detect in the dark. Coupled with early precautions, there will naturally be no damage.
After Su Wen dodged or blocked the three throwing knives, his body jumped up, and he only took two steps through the window, just in time to see a figure jumping down from the wall.
Su Wen wanted to catch up, but his body was very weak at this time, but these actions just now made him sweat a lot. Feeling a wave of weakness, he went back to the bed in his room.
Not long after, Xinghui came in through the window: "Abbot, it's too dark, I didn't catch up." The other party seems to be familiar with this place. ā
Su Wen saw that the clothes on Xinghui's shoulder began to ooze blood, and knew that the wound was torn, Xinghui had done his best, so he said: "It's okay, the two times were unsuccessful, the other party shouldn't come again tonight." ā
"Abbot, can you guess who they are?" Xinghui frowned and asked, there were two assassinations in a row today, plus the time when he just left the town that day, it was already three times. Three assassinations in just a few days, it can be seen that the other party is bound to win. ā
"I'll think about it again, you can go back first." Su Wen said to Xinghui.
"Yes, Abbot, but do you want to call the temple? I'll send a few more people. Xinghui suggested.
"No, there are many people, the goal is big, and it is not convenient to turn into a relationship." Su Wen shook his head and refused.
"Abbot, do you still have to deal with this situation now? You are the abbot of a temple, and you are responsible for the future of everyone in the temple, and you should not risk your life again. Now that we're here, let's just go straight to what we want to do, and you've done enough penance these days. Xinghui anxiously persuaded.
"It's all here, you can't give up halfway, you go back first." Su Wen shook his head at Xinghui.
"Abbot! ......" Xing Hui insisted, and had to leave the room.
Early the next morning, the body of the goddess was found in the graveyard in the back mountain, covered in dust and mud, with a look of horror on her face.
The corpse of the goddess was found by a villager couple who were the children of the second son, and they went to the cemetery to talk to their son, but they didn't expect to see the goddess die here.
But after the shock, he also spat on the side of the goddess and scolded: "You deserve it, evil will be rewarded, even if we spare you, God can't spare you." ā
It didn't take long for Su Wen to hear the news and take Xinghui to the back mountain, and the villagers who had already arrived respectfully made way for the two.
Su asked not to look at the corpses on the ground in front of him, but looked up at the cemetery behind, hundreds of mounds of all sizes, I don't know how many years they were, many of them were overgrown with wild grass, and even the wooden tombstones were completely rotten, looking extremely barren.
What caught Su Wen's attention was that more than a dozen of the mounds were entangled with a trace of yin qi, some strong and some weak. The weakest of them are the ones that are not too old in the following years, and some are in the middle, and the yin qi above is much more than on the new graves below. There is only one mound at the top, and the yin qi is the strongest, and everything that Su Wen sees has already formed wisps.
Su Wen stared at the tombstone for a long time, until the other people around him whispered for unknown reasons, and then lowered his head to look at the witch who was lying flat on the ground. There was still a look of extreme fear on her wrinkled old face, and it seemed that she had been terrified before she died.
"Amitabha" Su asked the Buddha number, although he comforted everyone yesterday to let her live, but he didn't expect to die here, which can be regarded as a reward for good and evil.
"Bury her." Su Wen said a word to everyone, and then walked into the cemetery, looking at the tombstones with yin qi on them one by one. It didn't stop until the tombstone that made Su Wen feel the strangest.
Sensing carefully, Su Wen's heart was even more strange. The yin qi on this tombstone is completely different from the others, not as cold as the others, but rather very peaceful. And it seems to be strong and weak, it makes people feel very strong for a while, and it makes people feel very light for a while, which makes Su Wen feel extremely strange.
"Who are all here?" Su Wen turned to the villagers behind him and asked.
"This is my third uncle, and this is my cousin......"
A young man explained the origin of the grave pointed to by Su Wen one by one, and finally asked, "Master, is there any problem?" ā
No wonder he wondered, this cemetery is hundreds of years old, and there are dozens of graves, and Su Wen points to more than a dozen of them, some before and after, and sometimes there are one or two rows in the middle.
"And who's this?" Su Wen didn't answer his question, and asked by pointing to one of the graves of Yin Qi.
"This? I don't know about that. Ask the village chief, he might know. After speaking, the young man turned around and shouted, "Village chief, village chief, the master has something to ask you." ā
The village chief was originally directing people below to go back and get tools to find a place to bury the goddess, but when he heard the shouting, he walked up step by step and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" ā
"Whose grave does this belong to?" Su Wen asked, pointing to the grave.
"Huh this?" The old village chief thought for a moment and said, "This is not from our village. ā
"Oh?"
You must know that this village has always been very remote, and this cemetery is all owned by the villagers, and even the daughter who married into another village can't go back here, but I didn't expect there to be an outsider here.
"I heard that when we first moved to our village, a mage came to the village. Just like you, the master, you are also bald. The village chief said, "I don't know the specifics, I only know that this tomb belongs to the mage." Because my grandfather said that this mage has been guarding the village all these years. ā
Su Wen never expected to hear such an answer, it would be a monk buried here.
You must know that monks who are dedicated to cultivation have very little karma, and usually if they are not reborn in the Pure Land after death, they will be reborn as a human very quickly, and if they have the opportunity, they will re-enter the Buddhist sect to practice.
But what is buried under this is not only not reincarnated, but stays here for hundreds of years and becomes a ghost, which is really unthinkable.
I can't guess the specific reason anyway, but it doesn't matter, just come and ask the person lying down below in person at night. (To be continued.) )
