Two people walked over, lifted the cage and just put it into the water, but the girl woke up, struggling and screaming miserably: "No! Let me out! No!! ”

"Mei'er, don't blame us, who made you do evil, you can't involve the people in the village to suffer with you, unmarried and pregnant, father unknown, this is a big taboo!" The village chief shook his head, gritted his teeth in his heart and turned his back and said, "Let's do it!" ”

"No!! I can die, please spare my child! My baby! The child is innocent! The sound of the girl's crying made everyone feel unbearable.

Suddenly, I heard a clear voice slashing by: "Stop, what are you donors going to do?" ”

Everyone looked up and saw a monk not far from the top hurried over, a pig cage was dragged, the people in the village saw the comer after the spirit was greatly lifted, the village chief put his hands together, respectfully said to the comer: "It turned out to be Master Minghui, disrespectful!" ”

Minghui returned the salute with one hand, and still held on to the cage with the other: "Village chief, what crime has this girl committed, why did she suffer from this?" ”

"......" The village chief looked at the people around him, sighed in embarrassment, and said, "Master, you don't know, this Mei'er...... She, she is not married, but she is already pregnant with a child, and she is about to give birth, and she doesn't say who the father of the child is. Therefore, according to the rules of the ancestors, it is necessary to sink the pond in order to appease the heavens. I hope the master will understand. ”

Minghui frowned slightly: "There is still such a fallacy, is it because of this kind of ethereal thing that human life can be regarded as a mustard?" It's ridiculous! ”

"Master, this ...... What a rebellion! If this angers God, we, we people rely on the sky for food! Aren't we human lives?! The village chief was sweating in a hurry.

"Human life is at stake, and the poor monk dares to ask." Minghui thought for a moment and said, "If we know who the father of her child is, and it is confirmed that she is pregnant with a human, then can we calm the anger of the public?" ”

"This ......," the village chief hesitated.

"Don't worry, I will naturally help you to eliminate calamities, as long as you are committed to goodness, the Buddha will forgive everyone."

The village chief immediately perked up and smiled: "That's the best, it's our honor to have you do it for us!" We don't want Mei'er to sink into the pond! So good, so good! ”

"Did Meier hear me? You mean! Tell me whose child you are pregnant! This stumbling with a thousand knives will not die well! Mei'er is not afraid, no matter who he is, as long as he is human! Even if it's the king of heaven, we will call the shots for you! ”

For a while, everyone's eyes were locked on the girl who was still trembling in the cage in shock, she timidly swept everyone's faces one by one, bit her lip tightly, and said nothing with a white face.

"......" The village chief spread his hands: "Master, what else do you say about this, she just doesn't say it, you let it."

We can't help but call the shots for her! I think this kid is a demon species, and if you don't get rid of it, you can't do it! ”

"No!! None of you can touch my child! Mei'er roared, the cage rattling, and she raised her head and let out a shrill howl in her throat, tearing at her clothes in pain.

"She gave birth!" The sharp-eyed man saw that the hem of the skirt was quickly stained red with blood, and screamed.

"Hurry up and save people first!" When the village chief saw it, he immediately panicked: "All the men leave here!" Quick, Wen Po come here! ”

Mei'er was already a little delirious, clutching her stomach and crying hoarsely, and then suddenly quieted down, staring at Minghui with her eyes eager and full of despair, like a snake, tightly pressing against his neck.

"This kid is his." She spoke clearly word by word.

Everyone was amazed!

"This child is wise." She laughed miserably, her hair was draped and she threw herself in front of Minghui, clutching the cage tightly with both hands, and shouting hysterically: "This child is yours!" You're going to keep him alive! You're going to let him live!! ”

"......" Minghui's eyes widened.

Later, Mei'er died, and after giving birth to a healthy baby boy, she clutched Minghui's clothes tightly until Minghui nodded.

The world didn't believe that Master Minghui, who had always been clear and honest, would do this, but Minghui did not deny it, and he just kept silent when anyone asked him, and he turned a deaf ear to the gossip from the outside world. His reputation as a disciple of Buddhism was discredited, and some people even sneered at him. His experience was miserable, and he was expelled from the Buddha after being scolded by the abbot for fifty years, and since then he has wandered around alone with the baby boy.

"Why don't you explain? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that in fact, that child can't be yours! As long as the people in the village testify to you, you don't have to be in such a situation. Huang Mo couldn't help but show sympathy for what happened to him.

Because the child's mother knew that the child was not human. She knew that no one could let this child live. Minghui slowly twisted the Buddhist beads: "I have promised her that I will let him live, so no matter what, I will give it a try." ”

So I took him as an apprentice and named him Xi'er, so that he might cherish her mother's sacrifice for him. The boy could not hide from the abbot, who was going to have him executed, and I begged the abbot to give me a chance, and to give him a chance to live. That's why the abbot gave me this sword, just to prevent my son from becoming demonic. He asked me to personally execute Xi'er, for the sake of the world, this is his only request. ”

Huang Mo had mixed feelings in his heart, looking at him with a sad look.

"I looked around for ways to suppress his demonic nature, but it didn't work much, and every full moon night he would still be tormented by demonic nature and lose his humanity. Eventually, I decided to go to Shushan to find a way, but five years later, I unfortunately contracted a heart disease and was unable to walk. Cherish the children's photos

After taking care of me for four years, he is still so young...... followed me from place to place, and tasted the misery of the world...... I'm sorry for him, every time I fall ill, I'm afraid, if I die like this, what will I do with my son, what will I do with his demonic nature...... So I, so I would even think...... Let's go on the road together, he won't be alone......"

He grew in pain, pinched the hem of his shirt, and took a deep breath.

"I've already decided - I'm going to save ...... The part of him as a human being, so — I can't do anything about it...... But in the end, I couldn't save him......"

"Minghui has been thinking about whether I am trying to save him or to save the poor monk himself, I have lost the ability to judge, so I can still ...... Forgiven by the Buddha? He lowered his head, clutched the ochre-red Buddha beads tightly in both hands, his voice choked, and he could no longer speak.
