Chapter 335: Crossing the New Year

Du Xu yawned and turned back to the room, only to see several other people staring at him with interest.

"Lao Du, don't you really want to pry Song Yuan's corner?" He Wu sat in front of Du Xu and asked more excitedly than Du Xu.

Li Shangwen also came over, but said seriously: "As the saying goes, a friend's wife can't be bullied, although Song Yuan is not our brother, but after all, he is also a fellow disciple of the Palace of Eternal Life, but don't offend a ruthless person who can destroy his own family." ”

Du Xu only felt ridiculous: "Please, you think I'm hungry and don't choose food, just a woman from the Western Regions, as long as I go back to Lingnan, there are many women who are courteous to me!" ”

He Wu shook his head worriedly and said: "You really don't lack women, but the problem is that you have changed, you have hung on a tree, and that tree is still ......."

"You've got enough!"

Du Xu hurriedly interrupted He Wu's words, then pricked up his ears again, and said suspiciously: "Why is there such a big movement downstairs?" Is something wrong? ”

At this time, the others did not pay attention to his private affairs anymore, and instead eavesdropped on the commotion below.

When they heard it almost, this group of people looked disappointed and regretful.

"It turned out to be just a matter of a female cultivator sneaking into the post station and then running away and disappearing, how big is it, it makes the people below panic." Du Xu complained rather disdainfully.

He Wu felt a little strange: "Mainly, what does this female cultivator want to do?" ”

"Anyway, it shouldn't have anything to do with us anyway." Li Shangwen waved his hand, not wanting to pursue it, nor wanting to be involved.

These people from the Hall of Eternal Life didn't want to set themselves on fire, so they decided to continue to stay on the fifth floor, no matter what the commotion was downstairs, they didn't want to come out.

"Gu Yunying, this name is a little familiar......

Only Du Xu continued to listen to the commotion below, and heard those women chattering with the same name repeatedly.

He rubbed his jaw and tried to remember, but he couldn't remember.

——

At the same time, Gu Yunying, who quietly escaped from the post station and walked in Gumu Su City, was relaxed.

She found a place where no one was, changed her clothes again, and at the same time changed her appearance back to her original appearance, only slightly making her facial features more profound, becoming more like a Western Regions half-blood, and then bypassing the mountain road, from the side city of Gumusu City, quietly sneaking into it.

Walking in the crowded crowd, with no bald donkey guards around, Gu Yunying was so happy that she even wanted to recite a song of Pei Duofei's "Freedom and Love" aloud.

As a place that is more prosperous than Kasur City and is known as the largest city in the Western Regions, Gumusu City naturally has its own uniqueness.

In fact, the prosperity of the ancient Musu City is not as luxurious as the city of Kasur to some extent, and there is no particularly fixed place for slave trading, even if there are some slave traders selling on the street, but at most they are itinerant vendors, and most people are not keen on slaves.

Gu Yunying once talked to a resident of Gumu Su City on the periphery of a slave trader's stall and asked why the people of Gu Mu Su City didn't like to buy slaves.

Perhaps under the influence of the Rakshasa Temple, he looked at Gu Yunying inexplicably and explained: "Except for the necessary labor purposes, we don't need to buy extra slaves, those who are keen to find a sense of fulfillment in slaves, when they torture those poor slaves, in turn, they are just some poor creatures who are psychologically fragile. ”

"Then you guys are quite restrained and reasonable." Gu Yunying couldn't help but sigh a little.

Most of the inhabitants of Gumusu City maintained a good and compassionate heart, and the slaves they bought, although they could not have freedom, but the corresponding living conditions were much better than those of the slaves in Kasur City.

But it is precisely because of their kindness and restraint that too many slaves are unsalable in Gumusu City and cannot be sold, and the angry slave traders vent their anger on the slaves.

Gu Yunying saw that the slave merchant was fighting a slave in front of him because he couldn't sell a slave for a long time.

The surrounding residents of Gumu Su City saw this scene, although they all showed a look of pity, but no one stepped forward to stop them, just lowered their heads and silently recited a few slogans of Amitabha Buddha, and hurriedly walked over with their heads down.

Gu Yunying frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable with such compassion.

Until the slave was about to be beaten to death, when Gu Yunying wanted to cast a spell and quietly save people, a few old women walked over from the side.

But the old women did not intend to save the slave, but stood in front of the slave, folded their hands, and recited the Jizo Sutra in unison, in order to transcend the soul.

What's going on?

They felt that the slave was very pitiful, so they saw that the slave was about to be killed, and they immediately ran over to chant the sutra together.

According to the logic of normal people, shouldn't they be compassionate, estimate their own situation, and save it if they can save it, if they can't save it, they will also persuade the merchant not to torture it, and just give the dying slave a good time?

Gu Yunying looked around and saw that the other people were also clasping their hands together, saying that the man was pitiful, and that those old women were kind-hearted, as if they took all this for granted.

She was shocked on the spot.

"No, what are they doing? That slave is not dead yet, so you read the scriptures to him in advance? ”

Gu Yunying hurriedly turned his head and asked the person next to him, then looked at the slave who fell to the ground, and said seriously: "I think he can still be rescued." ”

The person next to her immediately looked at her with shocked eyes, and said angrily: "You said that you are a woman, you are so good-looking, why are you so cruel in your heart!" ”

"Me? Cruel? Gu Yunying was also surprised, grabbed this person and forced him to ask, "Where am I so cruel, you explain it to me." ”

The man was confused, looked at Gu Yunying from beginning to end, and said suspiciously, "Aren't you from Gumu Su City?" ”

"The people of our ancient Mu Su City have been taught by the holy monks of the Rakshasa Temple since childhood, and all beings are equal, but the karmic consequences caused by each person are different, so the suffering of reincarnation that we need to bear is also different."

"As miserable slaves, they should be too heavy for the sins of the previous life, and they must be repaid in this life, and we people are naturally the same, as long as you and I continue to reincarnate in this mortal life, it is all karma in our bodies, and we need to constantly wash away the karma on our bodies in reincarnation."

"Although this slave is tortured, as human beings, we will inevitably feel compassion, but as long as we think that this is the karma that he needs to repay in his previous life, we can't interfere at will, but if he steps into death today, it will be to repay the karma of this life and re-enter the next reincarnation, which is something to be happy about."

"Therefore, every time a slave dies, there will be a kind-hearted old woman in the vicinity who will come out and recite scriptures for them, so that they can do more good deeds in the next life and never suffer from karma again."

Gu Yunying listened to the unique theory of the people of Gumu Sucheng, and the whole person was dumbfounded, and the three views suffered a lot of impact.

There was another murmur from the crowd, and the slave was completely choked.

At this time, all the Gu Mu Su Cheng put down what they were doing and bowed their heads to the slave and chanted the scriptures, minimizing his karma and allowing him to get an easier fate in the next life.

Gu Yunying silently withdrew from the crowd, feeling complicated.

The people of Gumu Su City have their own three views and conduct themselves, Gu Yunying can't fully understand it, but he won't comment on it.

What reincarnation, karma, has nothing to do with her......

[Gain +1% karma.] 】

Gu Yunying: "? ”

What the hell, how did this long-lost thing suddenly appear again?

What the hell is this?

With doubts in her stomach, Gu Yunying turned around and walked into another crowded and lively street.

She followed a path that Kongming had taken her to walk before, plum blossom trees were planted on both sides of the street, thick and flourishing plum trees, growing branches arbitrarily, and even the door of the house was almost covered, green and verdant, but there was a sense of leisure.

Gu Yunying deliberately found the intersection she had walked through, because here, she had smelled a special aroma.

But she walked around the vicinity of this intersection several times, and found no unusual buildings or unusual people, but the fragrance still lingered faintly.

She went to the other residents of the neighborhood, as well as the occasional passer-by, to ask what the scent was.

Strangely, no one smelled the so-called aroma.

"Am I the only one who smells it?" Gu Yunying frowned, she had a bad premonition about this strange thing that only she perceived.

She looked at the night above her head that had completely darkened, and sighed: "Forget it, this aroma doesn't have much effect on me, and if I dig deeper, I will encounter any danger." ”

As she spoke, she turned away.

Suddenly, a slightly immature voice sounded behind her: "What is the donor looking for?" ”

Gu Yunying hurriedly turned around, only to see that there was nothing behind her, and there was not a single pedestrian, she was slightly stunned.

"Look down." The voice prompted helplessly.

Gu Yunying lowered her head, but saw a child who was only five years old, standing in front of her.

This child's face is exquisite, like a doll toy carved in pink, his cheeks are fat, and even his limbs are a little soft and fat, and he is completely a cute-looking child.

But this child's expression was solemn, and his eyes were vicissitudes, as if he had endless spring and autumn years, and through these light brown eyes, he quietly looked at Gu Yunying.

Because of the great contrast between appearance and look, Gu Yunying was curious, and she asked, "Whose child are you?" ”

"The name of the old man, the New Year."
