Hearing this, the holy woman bowed to the statue and said with a smile, "Naturally, the Xuannu Niangniang has great powers and can hear the true heart of women in the world. ”

Yu Mozhen slandered, if this idol really had such ability, he should know that her mother had passed away a long time ago, and he should also know that she and Yuan Yizhi came here to find out many suspicious cases in the southwest.

Although she thought so in her heart, she said on her face, "Since the holy woman already knows my intention, can you tell me how to pray to the Xuannu Niangniang?" ”

Yu Moji originally thought that this Xuannu Niangniang was chattering, and there must be many complicated and meaningless procedures when worshipping.

Unexpectedly, the saint just shook her head, made another gesture of prayer, and said, "There are too many rules and regulations that bind women in the world, and Xuannu Niangniang is unwilling to add some useless rules." ”

When Yu Moji heard this, he couldn't help but be a little moved. Although she had always been skeptical of the Xuannu Temple, the saint's words were very much in line with her heart.

At the same time, she gradually discovered that the gestures that the saint often posed seemed to be indistinguishable at first glance, but in fact there were subtle changes each time, and each time it was different.

Yu Moji originally firmly believed that the Xuannu Niangniang was just something made up by these saints, but at this moment, he was actually a little shaken, and his heart said Could this be the way the saint communicates with the clay Xuannu Niangniang?

The saint continued, "Sincerity is spirituality." Now that your wish has been made known to the Xuan Maiden, she will do everything in her power to protect you and your mother. But if you have anything else to ask for, you might as well do a divination like this little sister. ”

That's a clever thing to say. The powerful Xuannu Niangniang also has a clear prediction of the scope of her ability, knowing that even if she "does her best", she may not be able to protect the believers for a long life.

The saint still held the little girl in her hand, but the little girl still looked like she had not yet recovered from her horror.

The panic, distress, and guilt on her face were tangled together, and she seemed to know that she was about to bring disaster to her father, but she did not know the outcome, nor could she see what role she had played in the matter, and she did not understand whether her father deserved to be punished.

This kind of mood couldn't be clearer. She was also curious how the clay statue of the Xuanmaiden would condemn the little girl's father, but she could not express such thoughts at the moment, so she tried to take her eyes off the little girl.

Yu Mochen thought about it for a while, and said, "It's really rare for Xuannu Niangniang to be so sympathetic to the suffering of women in the world. Although I am only a village girl, I also want to contribute to the Xuannu Niangniang. ”

"Oh?" Although the saint's expression did not change, a little active brilliance flashed in her eyes in an instant. She nodded, and said, "Of course it's good that you can have this heart." ”

Yu Moji saw that she was interested, and her heart seemed to have a chance. She smiled humbly and joyfully, and said, "But I don't know, what can I do for Xuannu Niangniang?" ”

As she spoke, she quietly glanced at the incense box on the case, and couldn't help but secretly pray that she would not be asked to donate money as soon as she came. She is pretending to be a village girl who is outcast, and she has no extra children.

The saint did not mean this at all, but explained, "As with prayer, your will is the most important thing, and there is nothing about the rest." However, what Xuannu Niangniang needs most is actually to have more sisters join us, become Xuannu Niangniang's holy envoys, dedicate their whole lives to her, be her waiters, be her eyes and ears, bring her faith to all corners of the world, and try their best to save those women who are still suffering. ”

Yu Moji disliked this kind of high-minded argument the most. The world always wants women to be subordinate to men, and this already makes her feel very unfair. Serving a clay idol in his self-surrender body is as nonsense to Yu Moji as serving a man.

After thinking about it for a while, she naturally showed a little embarrassment, and said, "I have heard about the deeds of many saints, and I have always respected and worshiped them, and I really have the heart to join. It's just that I really can't let go of my lover......" She glanced at the saint's gradually frowning brow, and hurriedly made a childish attitude, and made amends, "He treats me very well, and is even willing to elope here in disregard of etiquette for my sake...... And he never bullied me. Such a man is really rare, isn't it? I think the Xuan Maiden will bless us too. ”

The saint's face softened slightly, but she was just noncommittal, "There are many things that need time to prove. She glanced at Yu Moji and said indifferently, "You seem to be lucky now, but if the other party changes his mind in the future, if it is difficult for you to face such misfortune alone, don't forget that the door of the Xuannu Temple will always be open to you." ”

Although her face was cold, her words were very earnest.

Yu Mochen nodded in agreement, and said, "I must remember." She glanced at the helpless little girl, and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to become a saint, but I wonder if there are other things that can allow me to serve her?" For example, does your Salesian Bureau need someone to take care of you? When I first came here, I really wanted to find a job that could be self-reliant, but now it seems that it is more meaningful to do things for Xuannu Niangniang. ”

The saint looked at her with scrutinizing eyes, but did not speak.

Yu Mozhen lowered his head slightly, suppressed his voice, and said, "I used to take care of several younger brothers at home. I have some experience in taking care of children. ”

She was an only child, but she did work as a child. The children were clearly not her own brother. When she was grieving, she did almost everything to earn money, one of which was to take care of the children for the local family.

The holy woman was a little hesitant, but when she heard this, her face softened a little. She looked at the other saint, nodded to each other, and said, "Well, then you will come with me, and we will send this little sister to the Salesian Bureau together." ”

She gently patted the little girl on the shoulder to soothe her, and was about to take the ink marks into the fog behind the ancestral hall.

Yu Moji finally found a chance to break into the enemy's interior. She was so excited in her heart that she wanted to run to Yuan Pingzhi's side at this moment and tell him the good news. But the current situation does not allow her to show even the slightest hint of unpiety. Yu Moji had to keep his face silent.

In the fog behind the ancestral hall, there was indeed a cave.

When Yu Moji walked in from the outside, he was greeted by a forest of cypresses, but this place was planted with bamboo. The fog, which never seems to dissipate, is particularly humid, and the bamboo in it is also extremely vigorous, which can be called a shade of the sky. But the saint took Yu Mo very far through the bamboo forest, and the path under her feet faintly followed this certain rule, as if someone had set it up on purpose.

They walked slowly up a hillside. The slope is very gentle, but Yu Moji somehow, I just feel very tired from walking.

The saint was very meticulous, and noticed that Yu Moji's face was not quite right, so she asked, "Do you feel dizzy?" ”

Although Yu Moji was tired, he also felt that he could bear it, so he said, "Maybe I'm just a little tired from walking." ”

The saint nodded, and said, "The fog here is nicknamed 'Cognitive Barrier', although it is harmless to people, but newcomers may feel a little uncomfortable. As she spoke, she took out a small pill, handed it to Yu Moji, and said, "With the blessing of the Xuan Niangniang, we have found a medicine that can resist the influence of the 'cognitive impairment', called pepper lotus brain, and pressing it under the tongue may be able to relieve the discomfort." Many of the new sisters have benefited from this. You might as well give it a try. ”

Yu Moji is actually a very vigilant person, but she is so bent on winning the trust of the saint at the moment that she doesn't dare to show any hesitation; She only held it in her mouth, and she didn't really need to take it, and maybe there was no danger, so she put the pill in her mouth as she said.

A slightly spicy taste immediately spread to Yu Moji's brain. Stimulated by this, her mind cleared up slightly, and she had no other reactions, and she couldn't help but feel that this pepper lotus brain didn't seem to be of much use.

This reassured her a little. After all, the more powerful things are, the more suspicious they are.

The condition of the ink marks did not improve much. Luckily, it wasn't too big, and it wasn't long before they arrived at a house. It's very quiet, and there are no insects and birds, which is very strange.

Yu Moji walked all the way, and paid special attention to the fact that there were many similar houses in this bamboo forest, but when the holy woman brought her over, it seemed that she deliberately avoided it, and there was a heavy fog to cover it. Those mysterious houses, Yu Moji has never been close to any of them.

The little girl who came with them seemed to be very shocked by this mysterious and strange atmosphere, the fear on her face was a little heavier, and her little body couldn't help but tremble a little. The saint also noticed her condition, and crouched down to give another comfort.

When the little girl had finally calmed down, the saint went up and opened the door.

Yu Moji looked inside and was surprised to find that there were more than a dozen little girls of different ages and shapes sitting inside this silent house, but all of them had not yet reached the end of time.

It should be difficult for a little girl of this age to sit in one place and be quiet for a long time. But perhaps because there was a saint sitting in the corner who was not angry and arrogant, no one said a word.

Not only that, these little girls are dressed in clothes similar to those of saints, and their childish faces show the expressions of saints who are between indifference and indifference. What surprised Yu Mochen even more was that each of them maintained a very distorted movement, which looked quite weird.

Although Yu Moji thought it was strange, he was affected by this atmosphere, so he naturally thought that there was a ban on speaking here. She finally got to this point, and she never dared to anger these eccentric saints, and she couldn't help but breathe a little lighter.

This misconception was quickly shattered by the saint who brought her over, for the other party immediately spoke, "This is our Salesian Bureau. Although the voice of the saint was not high, it sounded a little harsh in this overly dull environment.

Yu Moji moved his fingers a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say, so he had to nod.

The holy woman pointed to the motionless colleague in the corner and said, "At present, these little girls are under the care of that sister, and there is nothing important. It's just that since you have the heart to dedicate, why don't you help that sister and go to the town to buy some food every once in a while. ”

As soon as Yu Mojian's eyes moved, he heard the holy woman continue, "Of course, we will pay for the money. It's just that after all, we have a remote place here, and there are not enough people, so it is inconvenient to buy and deliver materials, and we really need you to contribute. ”

This relationship is good, Yu Mozhen thought to herself, going around and around, after so long, she went back to being a handyman. However, in this somewhat stretched situation, the Xuannu Temple still adheres to the purpose of protecting the women of the world, and it is indeed very determined.

"It couldn't be better." Yu Moji laughed at himself and said loudly, "Do you need help cleaning the house?" ”

The saint shook her head, "It doesn't have to be. This bamboo forest house was built in accordance with the will of the Xuannu Niangniang, and the road is very complicated. I'm bringing you here this time, just to let you take a look at these little girls and teach you to understand that the kindness of the Xuannu Niangniang is not vain. In the future, when you have bought food, you just need to send it to the ancestral hall and give it to us. ”

The saint said as she brought the little girl next to her inside, handed it to the saint inside, and then walked out and closed the door, "In this way, it will not disturb the little girls to practice." ”

Yu Mochen thought about the distorted appearance of the little girls, and said, "So they are practicing?" ”

"Yes," explained the holy woman, "these girls will become saints in the future, and they must learn the methods taught by the Xuannu, and at least have the ability to protect themselves, so that they can save more women from the misery in the future." ”

Yu Mochen remembered the strange way of the other party when he met the saint in the bazaar, and said in his heart that it was probably the so-called "method". She nodded, thinking to herself that this Xuannu Sect was really a big project, not only to accept these girls, but also to cultivate them into holy daughters who were chattering with gods.

But I don't know where the so-called "method" of the Xuannu Sect and the resources to support this force come from.
