The eldest lady shook her head, but I was confused.

She told me that her two daughters also entered the temple and became goddesses, and after that she looked forward to the day of the monthly pilgrimage.

The eldest mother hopes that she can see her daughter who she thinks about day and night.

"Auntie, when did your daughter enter the holy temple?" I looked at my eldest mother, her hair was gray, and she should be sixty years old.

"Twenty-three years ago, at that time, the youngest daughter was only fourteen and the eldest daughter was sixteen." The eldest mother recalled, the smile on the corner of her mouth became pale and weak: "They are all good-looking, I regret it, I didn't marry them earlier." ”

The eldest mother's eyes were full of guilt, as if her two daughters became goddesses, and it was her fault.

"Auntie, this matter is not your fault, it's just a matter of making people." I gently patted the back of my mother's hand to soothe her.

The eldest lady opened her chapped lips and said to me, "Girl, can I ask you for something?" ”

"Auntie, you said that as long as I can do it, I will definitely help." I nodded immediately.

"I'm getting older, my eyes are spent, I can't see the appearance of people clearly, after a while, when I enter the temple to worship, can you take a look for the eldest lady, among those goddesses, is there a girl with a mole on the corner of her mouth? My youngest daughter has a black mole on the side of her mouth, and my eldest daughter has extremely thin lips and slender eyes that look like phoenix eyes? "The eldest lady and I carefully described the appearance of her two daughters.

I listened carefully, but I knew in my heart that those two girls should have died twenty-three years ago.

The three-faced demon king is not a god, but an evil demon, and his subordinates are also demons, how can he keep two girls for more than 20 years?

However, in the face of a longing mother, I couldn't tell the truth, so I could only nod at my aunt.

When the eldest lady saw me nodding, her face also showed a look of joy.

The carriage bumped for a long time, and finally, it arrived in Fucheng.

We were at the gate of Fucheng and were thrown out of the carriage.

One by one, they stood neatly on the side of the carriage, preparing to enter the city one by one to worship the demon king.

These so-called "divine messengers" still sniff us when we enter the city.

Then, one by one, they were put into the city.

When it was my turn, I was inexplicably a little nervous, because, all day long, I was with them in the dark and beilin, and I don't know if my body was contaminated with the breath of an extraordinary person.

An oracle sniffed at my body, and the hand that had been hanging down immediately lifted up.

My heart was also raised, thinking that I had known that this was the case, so I brought a sachet and put it on my body to disturb them.

The messenger circled around me, and he simply raised his hand and let me into the city.

When I entered the city, I saw that from the gate of the city to the temple on three sides, a red blanket was laid, and on both sides of the blanket, every three steps, there was an incense stick.

All the people, begin to bow down three times and bow down nine times, and I will do as they do.

Outside the city gate, dozens of carriages came over, and people were still pouring into Fucheng.

The eldest lady sneaked to my side, and said to me, "Girl, what is your business?" ”

"Don't worry, auntie, after entering the holy temple, I will take a closer look for you." After I finished speaking, I knelt down and kowtowed with everyone.

In short, such a short journey, it took a stick of incense.

Those oracles stood beside the incense ding, staring at us condescendingly.

finally fell down the main gate of the holy temple, but as a result, he just knelt here and shouted: "God is benevolent, kneel and ask God to bless Nanling!" ”

After speaking, he crossed his hands, put them on his chest, and knelt down.

After a long time, more than a dozen oracles led all the "believers" into the main gate.

I've been here before, but I thought they would lead us into the hall where the giant demon king was placed, but it wasn't.

They led us to a Buddhist hall in the west, and the whole three-sided temple was huge, and one Buddhist hall could accommodate thousands of people.

And there are more than ten of such large Buddha halls.

In order to let me watch my daughter for her, my aunt has always followed me closely.

As soon as I entered the temple, she pulled me by the hand and, like everyone else, shouted, "God! Then get on your knees.

Now, this Buddhist hall is crowded with people, but everyone doesn't make a sound, and the silence is like a silver needle falling to the ground, and you can hear it.

On the side of the Buddha Hall, eight divine envoys carried an object and entered the Buddha Hall.

The people around me hung their heads, and I quietly raised my head and looked at the oracles.

found that what those divine envoys were carrying was actually a statue of a golden-bodied demon king about five feet high.

They placed the statue of the demon king on the offering table in the Buddha hall.

"Bow!"

Immediately afterward, the oracle shouted at all the people.

Then I heard "Bang bang bang!" The sound of prostration, this voice, it hurts to listen to it.

"Girl, you can take a look for the eldest lady." My aunt kowtowed and whispered to me.

I nodded, raised my eyes and glanced carefully at the entire Buddha Hall, in this Buddha Hall, there were only divine envoys, and there were no goddesses.

"Auntie, there is no goddess here." I lowered my voice and told my aunt.

When the eldest lady heard this, she shook her head again and again: "Impossible, they all cover their faces with black hats, take a closer look?" ”

"Auntie, your daughter, I'm afraid, she doesn't have such a burly figure, right?" These oracles are all burly and tall, even if I can't see their faces, I know that they won't be girls.

When the eldest lady heard this, her dry lips trembled violently.

The cloudy eyes rolled, and I didn't know what I was thinking, and finally my face turned purple.

"Auntie, this temple is huge, presumably, they are elsewhere." Seeing that the eldest lady's face was getting more and more ugly, I hurriedly spoke to reassure.

"It's been more than 20 years, but you're afraid?" The eldest mother's heart is actually like a mirror, but she is still unwilling to give up: "However, if you want to see people in life and corpses in death, I must find out." ”

The eldest lady said that, and actually stood up suddenly.

I was shocked, and I reached out and tried to pull her, but it was too late.

"In the presence of God, dare to be rude? Pull down, kneel on the stone steps, and dispose of it after listening! The leading envoy saw the eldest lady get up, and pointed at the eldest lady and snorted angrily.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen divine envoys rushed over to pull the eldest lady down.

"Divine envoys, I just want to see my daughters, for more than 20 years, every time I come to the temple, I don't see them, I just want to know, are they still alive?" The eldest lady almost cried and said this.

"Once you have entered the temple and become a goddess, you will break off the thoughts of mortals, your daughter is fortunate to become a goddess, you should thank God for his grace, instead of being here, I don't know what to do!" As soon as the divine envoy said that, he waved his hand, and his subordinates immediately pulled the eldest lady out of the Buddhist hall.
