"That's the Temple of the Goddess?" Jin Ling, who was sitting on a horse across the Yongjin River, looked at the red tower not far away and sighed.

It's worth it for her to fall into the river, because she's built a landmark. It's only been a little over a month, and the speed at which such a tall building has been built is amazing.

"It's so high...... Rui'er sighed beside Jin Ling, "it's really worth 10,000 taels of gold." ”

"How are we going to get there?" Tian Fei, who was closely following behind the Jinling carriage, said in a loud voice, "I know that there is a bridge ten miles to the west, and the main bridge leading from Qi Kingdom to Yingtian. ”

"Then go west." Jin Ling lowered the curtain on the car door, "I don't want to take a boat anymore." ”

"Me too!" Rui'er also sat back in the car with Jin Ling, "Don't take a boat in this life." ”

The four carriages stopped for a moment on the other side of the temple of the fairies, turned their horses' heads and ran slowly west along the road on the bank of the river.

A small lacquered carpenter on the top floor of the temple narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the carriage traveling far away.

"What are you looking at?" The foreman raised his hand and patted the little lacquered carpenter's head, "Hurry up, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be here in three days." The paint has to dry. ”

"It's going to be all done tomorrow night." The little lacquered carpenter retracted his gaze and smiled, "I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will come up..... Looking out from here, we're standing on the river. ”

"That's not something you should think about." The foreman said in a deep voice, "Just do your job." ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The little lacquered carpenter blew on the carved lattice, and watched the four carriages go away before withdrawing his gaze.

Jin Ling and his entourage almost arrived at sunset before they arrived at the bridge that Tian Fei said. Looking at the bridge from afar, it is magnificent across the Yongjin River.

It happened to be sunset, and the sun was shining in the west. Far away, you can see three figures standing on the railing of the bridge on the east side of the bridge, one large and two small. They were all dressed in white, standing motionless on the bridge.

"Standing on the bridge, you should be able to see the temple of the goddess!" Rui'er smiled, "It might be better to see the temple of the goddess on the bridge!" ”

"That's not right!" Tian Fei, who followed them, shouted, "They are wearing filial piety clothes, could it be that their family has fallen into the river?" ”

"Quick!" Jin Ling urged, "Go and see!" ”

The crowd quickened their speed, and when they arrived at the bridge, the white shadow had climbed the high guardrail and was about to jump down.

Tian Fei flew up from the shore and pounced on all three of them.

Jin Ling also hurriedly got out of the car. When I came to the bridge, I saw a group of people running on the other side, and one of them was a white-haired old woman who cried while running: "Feng'er, mother, can't you...... The baby is still young, can't it......."

It was a woman who was pounced on by Tian Fei and sat on the bridge. The woman was dressed in a white filial piety dress with a long hemp rope tied around her waist. The two little children were dressed in the same way. The woman's expression was dull and her face was desperate. The two children were huddled tightly in the crook of the woman's arms. Frightened as he watched the crowd of people gathered around.

The white-haired old woman rushed to the woman and reached out to pull one of the children: "Feng'er, you come to grandma's arms......."

The child did not speak, but shrank into the woman's arms.

"Feng'er, go back, go back...... Feng'er's father doesn't have it, and life still has to be lived. Don't you still have my old bones at home, they want me to pay for it? Why don't you take the children back to your parents' house, the children are still young, and you can't take them to a dead end......"

Everyone heard clearly, the family was in debt, the father died, and the mother committed suicide by throwing herself into the river with two young children.

Damn it......

Jin Ling couldn't bear to squat down.

"This sister, even if you are in a desperate situation, you can't commit suicide, there is a saying called life in a desperate situation. Tell me I'll help you......"

The woman sat dumbfounded, deaf to her words.

Jin Ling looked at the white-haired old woman again: "Is there something going on at my mother-in-law's house?" ”

"Hmm!" The white-haired old woman wiped her tears from Jin Ling, "It's all because my son who is not angry and doesn't study well on weekdays." I owe countless gambling debts, and the creditors come to the door every day to ask for debts. He also has the intention to change for the better, this time the temple recruited workers with a lot of wages, so he went, but he didn't think about it...... "The white-haired old woman couldn't cry, "I didn't expect to die of exhaustion...... The foreman only sent back his wages, saying that he had been summoned by the goddess! Even the corpse capital didn't give it to us......"

"Exhausted to death?"

"Or else!" The old woman cried, "To build such a tall building in such a short time, they are all working day and night, my son is a logger, I heard that when he was carrying wood, he was very sleepy and lost his hand and was stoned to death, isn't it just exhaustion......"

At this time, I saw a woman in a red wedding dress in the crowd also walked up to the old woman with a sluggish expression: "Old woman, is your son going to the logging site in Cuiwei Mountain?" My husband....... He didn't come back either, and today was supposed to be the day we got married. He said he would make a little more money and give me a beautiful wedding. But now that the wedding date has arrived, no one else is gone......"

The woman in the filial piety dress, the woman in the wedding dress, one red and one white, sat together like a .......

It's like a girl crying on the Great Wall.

Jin Ling sighed: "Why did this goddess temple build so quickly. If you don't rush the work, these craftsmen won't ......"

At this time, a chubby woman came up from the crowd and grabbed the woman in the red wedding dress: "Son, you can't be stupid! ”

"I didn't!" The woman in the red wedding dress smiled sadly, "I just came over to see what that blood-stained goddess building looks like." ”

"A lot of craftsmen died!" An old man in the crowd suddenly said loudly, "There are only a lot of deaths over there in the temple of the goddess, and after hearing that they died, they were thrown directly into the Yongjin River." ”

"How so?" A young descendant objected, "Could it be that the family of the deceased didn't go looking for it?" ”

"That's the Temple of the Goddess!" The old man raised his voice, "The temple of the goddess was built by His Majesty's own order, and the death is naturally punished by the goddess, and it is not bad that Your Majesty did not cure the sins of their family." Who would dare to look for it! Your Majesty worships ghosts and gods the most! Otherwise, I wouldn't have ordered the temple to be built in such a short time. Once the temple is built, those demons and evil spirits will no longer dare to make trouble! ”

In the capital of the Emperor of Heaven, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a thing happened.

Jin Ling slowly got up and glanced up at the twilight goddess building.

In this way, her falling into the river is the source of sin.

Jin Ling sighed and said to the old woman: "I will help you pay off all the gambling debts your son owes." After that, Jin Ling looked at the woman again: "There is a saying that women are weak, and mothers are ......."

The dull-looking woman's eyes flashed, and big tears fell: "But what do I, a weak woman, take to support them?" Instead of suffering in this world, it is better for the family to go there and be reunited......"

"But your mother can't be called a weak woman!" Jin Ling sighed, "You believe me, or I will recognize you as my sister." I'm a businessman and I need help. What do you think? ”

The woman looked up at Jin Ling, then at the maid in a satin dress behind him, and then at the two children in her arms, and nodded at Jin Ling: "Okay!" ”
