"They must have found Hu Zhong." Bai Linu pouted and motioned Bai Ze to look down: "The armor on Hu Zhong's body doesn't fit at first glance, and it is estimated that he has temporarily found a set of hard clothes to put on." Also, after Hu Niang died, those people ignored him and left, if this is together, how can there be no conscience. ”

"Ahem...... Good...... Conscience? Bai Ze shook his head: "These people are all trained demon hunters, and they don't have a conscience." However, I agree with what you just said, Li'er, Hu Zhong was not with them, but was used by them. They must have found out the relationship between Hu Zhong and Hu Niang, and used the relationship between mother and son to lure Hu Niang out of the Yiyi Temple and kill him on the street. Poor Hu Niang, poor Hu Zhong. ”

"I don't understand." Bai Li shook his head lightly and looked at the pile of humanoid white bones on the ground: "If you just want Hu Niang to die, you can do it in the Yiyi Temple, why do you have to lead it to the street, how many innocent people will have to die." ”

Speaking of the word innocent people, Bai Li's eyes widened suddenly: "Or you are a liar who is well-informed, these armored warriors have no conscience, if they have a conscience, they will definitely not let Hu Niang go to the street, let alone watch those innocent people die in vain." What kind of samurai, and what is the difference between an executioner. ”

"You think I'm amazing, don't you?" As soon as Bai Ze came to him, he was pushed over by Bai Li's hand.

"Stay away from me, you didn't see my master glaring at you."

"It's not the first time your master has glared at me." As soon as Bai Ze finished speaking, he felt a shadow behind him, and when he turned around, it was Old Man Tao: "The old man is really fast, he was still over there just now, why do you work for a while...... Hey, don't kick it, I didn't think about what Li'er was doing. ”

"Master, you didn't kick your foot, did you?"

"Li'er, shouldn't you ask me if I was kicked by your master first? Oops, my little liver, it hurts so much. ”

"Well deserved!" Bai Li grimaced at Bai Ze, and reached out to take the chicken leg handed over by Old Man Tao.

"It's so sad, I'm such a handsome guy as suave as the chicken leg in your master's hand. Li'er, Li'er, it's because of this chicken leg that you don't care about me, so you say I deserve it. ”

"You can eat chicken thighs, can you eat them?" Bai Li rolled her eyes while nibbling on the chicken legs.

Bai Ze covered his chest, walked up to Hu Zhong, who was still standing in place, first carefully snatched the knife in his hand, and then asked, "Do you want to tell fortunes?" The first hexagram does not charge money. ”

"Fortune telling?" Hu Zhong raised his head and looked at Bai Ze with confusion in his eyes, and then looked down at the white bones on the ground. "Then you can help me calculate, is this body lying on the ground a human or an evil thing, is it my father-killing enemy or my own mother?"

"Do you really want to count this?"

"Can't you figure it out?" Hu Zhong raised his eyes.

"It's not that you can't figure it out, but I don't think you need to count it at all. The first hexagram is free, and it's not good to waste it in vain. ”

"Do you want money? I have money. Hu Zhong took out a piece of silver and handed it to Bai Ze: "What they gave is my salary to assist in eliminating evil spirits." ”

"Give it all to me?" Bai Ze's eyes lit up when he saw the silver.

"If you can figure it out, I'll give it all to you, if you can't—" Hu Zhong made a gesture to take back the silver.

"Count, calculate, how can such a simple thing not be calculated." Bai Ze squinted and smiled and took the silver in Hu Zhong's hand: "What did you just ask, is the white bone lying on the ground a human or an evil thing." This doesn't need to be counted, because this bone is clear, this is a human bone, and it is also an adult woman's bone. ”

"How can you tell it's a woman's bones?"

"It's simple, you don't need to count, you just need to look at it. The man's bones were larger and wider than the woman's. In addition, the man's bones appear to be rougher and heavier, while the woman's bones are relatively smooth and lighter. In addition, the overall skeleton is smaller. If you look at this white bone on the ground, and then compare it with your own bones, whether this is a man or a woman, you can see it immediately. ”

"But the people in the town say that she is an evil thing, and I saw it with my own eyes just now, she is indeed an evil thing, but when she saw me, she transformed into a woman."

"The people in the town say she's an evil thing, but what about you, what do you think she is? Young people, don't follow the crowd, you will believe what others say. You have ears but also eyes, so don't just listen, but look more. ”

"As I said, I saw her transform from an evil creature into a woman."

"Have you ever seen her before she turned into an evil creature?" Bai Ze asked: "Her name is Hu Niang, she is a very virtuous and kind woman, but it's a pity that she met a not very kind person, not only her husband died, but she also died herself." ”

"Hu Niang?"

"You grew up in town, so you've probably heard the name, right?"

Hu Zhong shook his head: "No, it's the first time I've heard of it." ”

"You're lying, you've heard it before, but what you hear isn't what I just said."

"They say that Hu Niang is a monster who specializes in eating children." Hu Zhong's eyes were tangled: "Just now, just before she transformed into an adult, I also saw her swallow a person." She's an evil creature, a cannibal, isn't she? ”

"Hu Niang only became a leech after she died, and when she was alive, she ate whole grains like you. Leeches do eat people, but not just children. So, the story you heard about Hu Niang when you were a child is fake. The reason why Hu Niang became a leech was because her husband was killed, she was killed, and her children were almost killed. Before her death, she was a weak woman and had no way to protect her family, and after her death, she turned into a leech because of her deep resentment, just to protect her husband and son. To others, she may be an evil creature, but to her husband and son, she is only a wife and a mother. ”

Hu Zhong bowed his head and was silent.

Hu Niang did eat people, but she didn't eat herself, but when she saw him, she stopped eating people, transformed into a human, and stood there smiling, waiting for him to pierce her heart with the demon sword in his hand.

Thinking of the scene just now, his heart suddenly hurt.

"Is she my mother? Am I her son? ”

"Shall I answer your second question first? First, is she your father-killer? Yes, but she didn't mean to. Second, is she your mother? Yes, she is your mother and has been looking for you all these years. ”

"So what am I going to do now?"

"Kneel, kowtow three times, and thank her for bringing you into this world and giving you life. Then, collect her white bones, and then go back to the temple to invite your father's remains, and find a quiet place to bury them together. After doing all this, you can let go, because you have already repaid the kindness of their birth and breeding, as for killing the mother...... You killed an evil thing, and if you can convince yourself of that, you don't have to take it to heart anymore. You are still young, and the road ahead is still long, I believe that your parents and your adoptive parents hope that you can do well. ”

"Who are you?" Hu Zhong suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Bai Ze's eyes.

"I, a fortune teller, nine out of ten hexagrams, the rest of the hexagrams are accurate or not, it depends on the mood." Bai Ze grinned: "You still can't count, if you don't continue to count, I'll take this ingot and leave." ”
