It took a lot of effort for them to send these dozens of people to the government.

When the government saw that the mountain bandits who had been giving them a headache had been caught, they were immediately overjoyed, and this year could be regarded as a good year.

was about to leave them for dinner, but Xue Jiaojiao and Shan Ying refused.

Because of this incident, it was delayed for a few days, and it was later than expected to return to Qinghe.

Stepping into Qinghe again, Xue Jiaojiao's mood has changed greatly.

When she left, she was lonely and brave, and she was admitted to Dongsheng Shenzhou with her momentum, and then a lot of things happened, and she finally had time to come back.

The shops that remain in her memory are still there, and there are many memories of her here.

"This is Qinghe?" Shan Ying stood on tiptoe and looked around.

The streets are filled with vendors selling couplet lanterns and firecrackers, and the eyes are festive red.

"Where did you live?" Shan Ying asked her.

Xue Jiaojiao shook her head, "That house shouldn't be there, let's go to the inn and stay." ”

Some walking merchants will not be able to go back during the New Year, and they will also spend the New Year at the inn, so that they can still go to the inn for a while.

The place where Xue Jiaojiao used to live was the backyard where her mother did the work of washing and sewing, a narrow firewood house.

After her mother died, she was so young that she could only wash other people's clothes and live hungry and satisfied.

went to Dongsheng Shenzhou and spent her savings for two years.

In Yun Mengze, she went out on a mission and received a disciple moon silver, and she also had a little money.

Shan Ying didn't want to live in a small inn, so she pulled her and Duan Rin and went straight to the largest inn in Qinghe, and booked three upper rooms.

"What's there to do here?" Shan Ying's eyes sparkled at her.

Xue Jiaojiao thought for a while, "It's not fun in winter, but there should be a lot of people who go to Putuo Temple to offer incense these days." ”

Most of them went to ask for blessings a few years ago, and the incense must be good these days.

"Incense?" Shan Ying didn't believe in these things, because she had never been to the temple yet.

"Do you want to check it out?" Xue Jiaojiao planned to enshrine an immortal tablet for her mother.

"It's fine." Shan Ying agreed.

After resting at the inn for a night, Xue Jiaojiao first went to clean her mother's grave and put on a few sticks of incense before going to Putuo Temple.

There are many pilgrims in Putuo Temple, and the carriages are parked one after another outside, and the water is blocked.

The three of them could only get out of the carriage.

From time to time, you can hear the cries of children, and most of the women and men passing by have a child in their arms.

"What's going on today?" Shan Ying looked puzzled.

Why did Shangxiang still bring her child here?

The coachman with peanuts next to him saw that Shan Ying was dressed richly, and replied with a shy smile: "Recently, these children have been crying at night for a month, and these ladies have brought the children to the temple. ”

Xue Jiaojiao looked over and saw that there were about a dozen children with them.

"There are still some rich families, so they went to invite Master Zhang of Qinghe to come and see, as soon as Master Zhang made a move, those children stopped crying, but the fees were more expensive."

The coachman added, telling Shan Ying what had happened recently like pouring beans.

Those who came to the temple to pray for blessings were all people who didn't have the money to invite that Master Zhang.

Shan Ying nodded and went in with Xue Jiaojiao.

"Something is wrong with this." Xue Jiaojiao looked at the child closest to her, and her cheeks were red from crying.

The woman patted the child on the back anxiously.

"Bao'er, don't cry, Buddha Gate Pure Land, when you cry, how can I take you in?"

Xue Jiaojiao flicked her fingers, and the black imp clinging to the child disappeared in an instant.

The child's crying slowly stopped, and he hiccuped.

The woman smiled and put her head against the child's head, "My good baby, I know you feel sorry for your mother. ”

That little ghost's cultivation is still shallow, and Xue Jiaojiao only made it scatter with just a slight wave.

But the children around them, there were a few little ghosts clinging to them, pretending to be terrifying, and the children were so frightened that they couldn't stop crying.

Shan Ying also saw those ghosts, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

Duan Rin hadn't officially entered the cultivation yet, and listened to them blankly.

"Sister Xue, what's wrong?" Duan Rin grabbed Xue Jiaojiao's arm with some uneasiness.

"It's nothing, it's just some little ghosts." Xue Jiaojiao patted the back of his hand.

Duan Rin's exposed hands were red from the cold, Xue Jiaojiao glanced at it, and took out a hand cover for him.

"The little ghost who can break into the Buddha hall must have the breath of a human on his body, and he may have been raised by a person." Xue Jiaojiao said as she walked in.

As she expected, among the people holding the child and offering incense, there were also a few little ghosts around them.

These imps are not very powerful, but they are annoying, and can only be seen by monks and children between the ages of one and three.

Seeing this, Xue Jiaojiao broke up a few more, and the other little ghosts turned their heads to look at them and hurriedly ran away.

"When they get back, those imps should still be gone."

Shan Ying sighed, this method is really vicious.

Xue Jiaojiao went to give her mother the immortal tablet, and then focused on those children.

Because she had just made a move, all the imps ran away, and the direction was uncertain, and she didn't know where she had fled.

"It's so cautious." Xue Jiaojiao held an umbrella and looked up at the gray sky.

"Didn't the coachman mention a Master Zhang just now, since he can cure this child's night cry, it should be a loose cultivator, why don't we go and ask him?" Shan Ying suggested.

Xue Jiaojiao nodded, "It's still early, so let's go and have a look." ”

Duan Rin followed the footsteps of the two and looked back at the golden Buddha statue.

The master surnamed Zhang is really famous, and he will know if he asks a vendor.

That person's name is Zhang Yulin, he lives in Qingshi Lane, and after the phenomenon of children crying at night in Qinghe, the threshold of Zhang Yulin's house is about to be broken.

Xue Jiaojiao and the three of them arrived over there, and there were still five people standing outside, all of whom were holding their children without exception.

The little ghost in front of them saw Xue Jiaojiao and hurriedly ran away.

The child stopped crying, but those people were still not at ease, so they took Zhang Yulin to take a look.

Xue Jiaojiao lined up outside and waited until noon before arriving at them.

The doorman looked at them with a smile, and he saw the two of them with an eight or nine-year-old child.

It's strange, Master hasn't received a child of this age?

Xue Jiaojiao and Shan Ying were just about to step in, but the man blocked the way again.

"Wait a minute, if you want to enter the door, you will have to pay fifty taels of silver." The doorman held out five fingers.

Xue Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows and looked at him, this doorman's approach should have been instructed by Zhang Yulin, but he would make money.

Xue Jiaojiao took out fifty taels and gave it to him, and the doorman hurriedly took it and added, "It's fifty taels for one person." ”

Shan Ying snorted coldly, took out a gold leaf and shook it in front of the doorman's eyes.

"Do you want it?" Shan Ying held the gold leaf close to him for a few minutes.

The doorman nodded and stretched out his hand, Shan Ying pointed to the fifty taels in his arms, "Give me the fifty taels, and the gold leaf will be given to you." ”

When the doorman heard this, he immediately returned the fifty taels.

Shan Ying hooked her lips and put away the gold leaf with her backhand.
