Chapter 318: It's different because of Shen Ge

This is a very ordinary small inn on the side of the road from Qi County to Xia Caiyi, with earthen walls, broken doors, and broken tiles, this is a place he has never been to, but he has a deep memory.

Behind the small stack is a very ordinary mountain, and there is a deserted and ruined temple halfway up the mountain. He Jiongming walked up the mountain road and stood in front of the temple gate for a long time before slowly raising his head, and when he saw the cracked and defective "Tianwang Temple" plaque hanging on the temple door, his pupils trembled slightly. Pushing open the temple door with his own hands, stepping on the half-human-high barren grass into the deserted main hall of the temple, seeing the mud statues of the wide-eyed Heavenly King and the Zengwen Heavenly King who even had blurred their heads and faces, He Jiongming's body trembled slightly, and he took two steps back and leaned on the crumbling temple door, and the dust fell on him.

Post roads, small inns, barren mountains, broken temples, the things in his dreams are all real, and even the defects of the two Buddha statues are exactly the same as in the dream, what is more incredible?

In the dream, he also pointed to the two broken Buddha statues to comfort Lin Ruyu, saying, "The gods in the temple know that the whereabouts of the girl's mother and younger brother are unknown, so the Guangmu Heavenly King and the Zengwen Heavenly King left the Buddha Hall to find your relatives for you, and the girl will soon be able to find them."

Lin Ruyu, who has been holding on after being "rescued" by him, believed it and knelt in front of the Buddha and cried. At that time, she stood in the hall and sneered silently, because when her mother and younger brother could be found, it was not up to the clay statue to decide, but him.

"Ahh

He Jiongming hugged his head that was about to crack and roared in pain.

"General." The guards had never seen Shizi like this, and they wanted to step forward to help him up, but they didn't dare to do it.

"I've been here, in my dreams." Lin Ruyu looked at the dilapidated and desolate Tianwang Temple, stunned, and her voice was slow, "With He Jiongming. My mother and Ah Heng were robbed by mountain bandits at the foot of Matou Mountain, and although I was lucky enough to not die, I was still caught by the mountain bandits. On the way back to Matou Mountain, the mountain bandits bumped into He Jiongming, who pretended to be An Ziyuan, and when he rescued me back to Xuanzhou, he had stayed at the inn at the foot of the mountain, and I found that there was a temple on the mountain, and he accompanied me up to pray that the gods and Buddhas would bless my mother and Ah Heng safely."

Shen Ge was distressed when he heard this, raised his hand to hold her in his arms, stared at He Jiongming who was helped out of the Heavenly King Temple with sharp starry eyes, and asserted, "He also had the same dream."

Lin Ruyu leaned her head on Shen Ge's neck, absorbing the temperature and breath that reassured her, suppressing the thousands of emotions churning in her heart, "The path he took from Xia Cai Mountain to here, and the inn he stopped to rest every time were the same as in his dream, as well as this small temple. He should have had the same dream on the mountain in Zhixian County, and came to verify the truth after waking up."

Then in the dream, He Jiongming killed her. Shen Ge hugged his sweetheart tightly, the seventeen-year-old boy's slightly childish eyebrows and eyes were full of determination, "It was a dream, and now it's true." It's a bodhisattva who tells you that if you don't resist with a sword, you'll become like that. You picked up the knife and killed Yan Laosi, and you also saved Bao Li, then Wusha Town, your mother-in-law and Ah Heng, your grandfather, and many people. The Bodhisattva's meaning is to tell you that things are done by man. He Jiongming had the same dream, which was also the meaning of the Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva is telling him that he has done a lot of evil and that he deserves to go to hell."

Those are not dreams, but Shen Ge is right, things are man-made. It was she who fell into the water and was rescued by Daifuku and held a knife (wooden stick) to change her fate. Lin Ruyu stared at He Jiongming, who came out of the temple, and said word by word, "I want to send him to hell with my own hands."

He Jiongming, who turned around and was about to go down the mountain, suddenly felt a chill in his back, and he held the crossbow arrow on his left forearm with his right hand and turned around quickly, so frightened that the two guards immediately fell to the ground.

There was no one behind him, only gusts of cold wind and the barren grass swaying in the broken temple.

No, something is very wrong here. The gloom rolled out of his narrow phoenix eyes, and He Jiongming slowly lowered his arm and said coldly, "Burn this broken temple."

Burn...... Burning temples? The guards did not dare to say anything, and there would be retribution for burning the temple and destroying the Buddha statue. The guard stubbornly said, "Shizi, the mountain is windy at this time, if the temple is lit, the entire mountain will be set up, and the officers and soldiers will come over soon."

There is a fire in the mountain, and it will soon be discovered. It is a felony to set fire to the mountain, and the yamen will soon send someone to arrest him. They can't see the light of day now, and if they alarm the government, they will be in trouble.

He Jiongming turned around with a calm face and walked down the mountain.

The two guards secretly looked at each other, from each other

I saw the joy of escaping death in my eyes.

"It's completely different from what he dreamed about now, and it's not good for him to dream about it now." After they went down the mountain, Shen Ge was still comforting his sweetheart, and seeing that Ruyu's mood was better, Shen Ge got up to carry her down the mountain.

Lin Ruyu, who had already recovered, didn't want to tire him anymore, but when she saw Shen Ge looking at her pitifully, she begged, "I want to carry my daughter-in-law down the mountain, they say that a person who hasn't carried his daughter-in-law down the mountain is not a good man."

"Who are they?"

"Big brothers in the barracks. I'm used to walking mountain roads, so I won't fall you."

I am afraid that I will be dropped by him, and besides, they haven't married yet, so why is it a daughter-in-law. Lin Ruyu pursed her red lips lightly, "Put me down when you're tired."

"Okay." Shen Ge carried his daughter-in-law who had not passed the door down the mountain, every step was very stable, and he would not be tired of carrying his daughter-in-law, and he would not carry it for the rest of his life.

Lin Ruyu hugged his neck, extremely relieved.

"Jiaojiao."

"Huh?"

Shen Ge asked softly, "Do you have me in your dreams?"

Lin Ruyu shook her head, "No. However, I dreamed that the Marquis of Wu'an died unexpectedly, and I was furious, and I disposed of the officials in Xuanzhou, and Zhu Taishou was also demoted."

Shen Ge's eyes lit up, "You entered Wusha Town and met me."

"Hmm." Lin Ruyu pressed her little face to his neck, "If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have escaped the flood so smoothly out of Wusha Town."

"Jiaojiao."

"Hmm."

Shen Ge's voice was hoarse, and his body stiffened, "Don't move."

Lin Ruyu's instant flush turned red, and he pressed his shoulder with his hand, "I want to go by myself!"

"No, I've already carried it." Shen Ge, whose ears were red, tightened his arms and continued to walk down.

Lin Ruyu puffed out her cheeks and said angrily, "It's all bones, so it's not comfortable for you to carry it at all, and you panic."

Shen Ge stopped, "Then I'll take you away?"

"Don't!"

Back in the inn, He Jiongming, who was lying on the bed, had a terrible headache.

What is going on, what is wrong, why are the things in the dream real, but the things in the dream are fake. It's not right, the memory before I went to Matou Mountain in my dream is the same as in reality. The difference is that in reality, at the foot of Matou Mountain, the wastes who failed to wait for Matou Mountain sent Lin Ruyu over.

Lin Ruyu fell into the water and was nowhere to be found, so he changed his journey and went to Wusha Town to "visit" Dongzhu when Qiqing. He entered Wusha Town, found Lin Ruyu in a ragged robe in the alley, and then met Shen Ge in the bamboo forest.

He Jiongming sat up from the bed suddenly, it was different, it was because Shen Ge !!
