Du Xiaolin walked briskly in the county port, even though she had not yet grown up, she still attracted a lot of attention.

Just walking and walking has reached the entrance of the city street, and gradually the surrounding dock workers and merchants seem to no longer pay attention to Du Xiaolin, and at this moment, when she looks back, the He family and the stalls where they eat are already relatively far away.

Du Xiaolin looked down at the bud in her hand, looked at it carefully, and then leaned closer to her nose and sniffed.

Originally, the flowers had not bloomed, so it was impossible to have any special taste, but when you smell it carefully, this bud has a light fragrance.

"This thing, in the end, is something lost by the Ejiang Water Mansion, if it is found by the time comes, it will be troublesome if it cannot be handed over."

I don't see anything special about this flower, but it's not something that can be sold at will.

Thinking so, Du Xiaolin put the bud into her sleeve, and her shoulders showed a little aura from scratch, and a shawl gradually appeared on her body.

Du Xiaolin grabbed one end of the shawl and flung it forward, and the shawl suddenly shot out in one direction, carrying her whole person up and flying from the street to the sky.

A moment later, Du Xiaolin landed outside a courtyard, there was some familiar feeling, but there was a lot of deviation from that vague feeling.

Despite this, Du Xiaolin understood that this was the place where she had lived for many years as He Xin, and she jumped into the courtyard with a light jump.

Du Xiaolin's feeling is right, compared to the past, this small courtyard has been rebuilt and renovated, and there are two more rooms, but she doesn't know.

The deeper you seek, the closer you get to the source, and this depth is not just about more, but also about being clearer, understanding the past, understanding what you owe, and so on.

And the last life is almost the one that can show the past most clearly, after all, it is recent.

Du Xiaolin thought for a while, simply jumped into the sky, stepped on the wind and arrived at the Land Temple in Luo County, after all, it was not far away, it was on an alley.

As soon as she arrived here, Du Xiaolin had a vague and familiar feeling, at this early morning, there were not many pilgrims around, and the land temple was deserted, only a few residual incense sticks were burning.

"Father-in-law of the land, I have something to ask you, this is the pastry I made, honor you!"

Du Xiaolin took out a pastry box similar to the one she had given to Ash Mian before, opened it and placed it on the god case, a faint spiritual light rose with the fragrance, as if floating to the side of the idol, and was inhaled by the idol's nose A few wisps of breath.

"Oh, it's so fragrant, this fairy spirit, but which fairy boy is it?"

An old voice sounded, and the idol of the earth god seemed to blink its eyes and looked at the little girl standing in the temple.

The next moment, a divine light fell on the statue of the god, and turned into an old man with a square hat in front of the god case, he reached out and picked up the pastry on the god case, put it on his nose and sniffed it.

There are not many pastries, and there are only five pieces in the small box, but this refreshing inspiration makes people hungry.

"Du Xiaolin, the gate of Taiyin Palace, is polite!"

Seeing that the little girl bowed and reported herself to the mountain gate, the land lord hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her up.

"Hey, it's a Taiyin Sect person, I haven't heard from the Taiyin Palace for many years, well, you girl is quite polite, what do you want to ask?"

"Father-in-law of the land, you can taste what I made first!"

"Hahaha, I'm afraid I won't say it? If you can say it, you will naturally say it, but if you can't say it, even if the Taiyin Fairy is close to me, I have nothing to say! ”

Having said that, the land lord still pinched a piece of pastry in the small box and put it into his mouth, and suddenly a liquid aura overflowed, and his mouth was full of sweet feeling, moistening the lungs and leaving a fragrance on his lips and teeth.

"It's worthy of being from the orthodox Xianfu dojo, it's good, it's delicious."

Everyone knows that the immortal path is extraordinary, but there are few immortals in the world who cultivate the truth, and the things that come out of the immortal path are relatively rare.

After eating a piece, the land lord was reluctant to eat the leftovers, closed the lid, and the smell of the pastry was immediately locked in it.

"Ask, what do you want to know?"

Du Xiaolin subconsciously glanced in the direction of home.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask the He family about the changes over the years"

"What family?"

"Yes, in the big case that happened in Yuanjiang County back then, the He family where He Xin was located!"

The land lord frowned slightly and looked at Du Xiaolin.

"There's nothing that can't be said."

About half an hour later, when Du Xiaolin came out of the Land Temple, she already had a clearer understanding of the changes in the He family over the years.

I have to say that although He Xin's death made the He family's parents sad, and the two brothers and a younger sister could not be said not to be sad, but later because of He Xin's death, when the government confiscated Jia Yuntong's property, it also gave the He family some compensation according to the law.

And because of the criticality of the case, there is also a certain increase in this compensation, which is enough to greatly improve the life of the He family.

Whether it was the debts owed by the family, the marriage of the second brother, and the later renovation and expansion of the house, all used this money

"I am used to seeing the estrangement of relatives of the same race in the world, and He Xin's parents naturally feel sorry for their daughter and miss them from time to time, but the brothers and sisters of the He family are still able to row a boat to carry their families to distant places to worship occasionally, so they naturally inherit this money."

After saying this, the land lord looked at the little girl who was standing silently beside him.

"Girl, is there anything else you want to ask, if you think it's not worth it, you pastry old man won't pay it back!"

"How come, thank you Father-in-law of the land!"

Du Xiaolin came back to her senses and smiled, and saluted the land lord again, and when the ceremony was over, she saw the land lord looking outside the temple, she also turned her head to look, but saw that the man who had just wanted to buy flowers by the dock also came to the land temple.

Well?

It was only a short time since he saw him, but the man's qi had changed greatly, which made Du Xiaolin's heart startled.

Although Du Xiaolin is still young and has a short time of being a primary school immortal, she has an extraordinary foundation and can also observe the number of people's qi, and the person's complexion was indeed a little dark when he was on the dock just now, but generally speaking, it is still in the normal category.

And at this moment, the head of the man was so dead that it overshadowed the vitality of the hall.

"Alas, some people, they always have unrealistic illusions about praying to God and worshiping Buddha on weekdays, but they don't know that they need to be hard to strike iron, and they don't even want to do a box, but they try to catch the pie in the sky."

"And some people don't go to the doctor when they are sick, but they only come to God to ask God, and they don't know if God will take care of his affairs, right."

The land lord was surprised, Du Xiaolin thought that the land lord had noticed the abnormality of the change in the number of manhood, but saw the man hurriedly enter the temple, pinched the incense in his hand and borrowed the fire from the candle in front of the hall, and then directly inserted the incense into the incense burner.

One does not worship the gods, and the other does not pray devoutly, it seems to be more like a show, kneeling on the futon and looking left and right.

"This person is too presumptuous, not pious at all, father-in-law of the land, don't bless him!"

The land lord looked at the little girl next to him, this girl seems to be really young, and she is a little ignorant of the world.

"Girl, he didn't come to pray to God at all, and this person is a bit of a warlock, I didn't even see it just now!"

"And what is he doing here?"

Du Xiaolin's voice fell, no need for the land lord to answer, the person who came had already shown the answer by himself, he looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he got up and bypassed the god case, grabbed a handful of incense ash and turned to the side of the statue, thinking that the god was unaware, but he didn't know that there were two pairs of eyes staring.

The man cautiously climbed onto the altar and took out a small cloth bag from his arms.

The statue of the earth god is a posture of sitting upright on the altar with his hands on his abdomen, and the man stands on tiptoe, ignoring the dust on the idol with his gorgeous clothes, and shoves a small cloth bag into the hands of the idol.

After stuffing, the man looked left and right, the gap flowing from his hands perfectly covered the thing, and sprinkled the incense ash in his hand into the gap, not to mention standing in the rest of the temple hall can not be seen, his position will be difficult to find on tiptoe, unless hooked out.

"Whew"

After breathing a sigh of relief, the man descended from the idol and returned to his previous futon to kneel down and bow to the idol repeatedly.

"The land lord, the land lord, please help me watch this thing, if I have the life to come back to get it, I will definitely give you a good donation of money and materials, if I don't have the life to take it myself, maybe someone else will come to take it."

While saying and praying, the man finally kowtowed directly to the idol several times.

After bowing to the gods, the man stood up, patted the dust on his body outside the temple, and then hurried away.

"What did he stuff here?"

Du Xiaolin asked curiously, but the land lord shook his head.

"I don't care about this kind of thing in the world, it's a violation of heaven if you intervene too much, you don't have to care!"

"It turns out that the land is famous, but I'm not a god, hehe!"

The child's curiosity rose, Du Xiaolin stretched out his hand to hook it as she spoke, and the cloth ball floated out, and then probed with her hand, and pulled out a small piece of silk cloth from it, on which a lot of words were written.

"Huh, name?"

The land lord shook his head and said.

"Girl, I'm gone, you can call me again if you have something!"

After speaking, without waiting for Du Xiaolin to speak, the land lord had already turned into a divine light and merged into the statue and fled.

——

The man had already left the temple at this moment, and hurried along the path, but he was getting more and more restless as he walked, and when he looked up, he saw a group of people carrying luggage and covering the small courtyard in front of him, and it was the family he had met at the pier before, and the little boy with a clay pot was following behind.

The man's heart moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward.

"Alas, alas! How many remember me? ”

When the He family looked at it, some people forgot that some people remembered, but the little boy was impressed and protected the basin with his hand.

"I said I wouldn't sell it!"

"Then you didn't hear how much money I paid, and you won't sell it for ten taels of silver?"

Uncle He, who had already been half inside, walked out at once.

"What? Ten taels? ”

"Alas, buying and selling is not benevolent, this is your home? How about we go in and discuss? ”

"Are you sure it's ten taels?"

The man had already arrived at the moment, looked at the little boy who frowned and retreated, and said hesitantly.

"I'm willing to pay a high price, but if you want to take a closer look, it's better to take me to find the lotus flower, and be willing to pay more!"

"You've been following us?"

"Everyone's forgiven me, I really like it."

Seeing the man like this, several adults were obviously tempted, the old woman shook her head and entered the courtyard by herself, while the uncle of the He family hurriedly invited each other.

"It's a guest here, please come in!"

"Oh, thank you!"

The man gave up his hand and entered the courtyard with the He family, and the little boy saw that his mother kept looking at him, so he didn't speak, and followed him with an unhappy face.

In the land temple, Du Xiaolin suddenly noticed something, threw the thing in her hand, and returned to its original position in an instant, and when she went out of the temple to see, she saw the man and the He family entering the courtyard from a distance.
