The soldiers set up firewood in front of the archway outside Ningyue Nunnery, and the grandmothers were discussing with the abbot to burn the baby girl to prevent future troubles.

So the mothers snatched out the baby girl in the cry of Jinghui calling for heaven and earth. A grandmother walked to Chai He with the child in her arms, and the baby did not cry or make a fuss, looking at Chai He very calmly. Jinghui ran out, but two soldiers stopped her.

The square was full of people watching the excitement, and the slave buyers also came, and everyone was talking about it, wondering if this should be done, because no one had experienced it before. Some pity the children and pity the pure wisdom, but they are afraid that they are really demons, and they will suffer in the future.

At this time, the imam walked up to the earthen platform next to the archway and said loudly: "Villagers, have you ever heard that a doll is going to be pregnant for 24 years? Have you ever heard of a 68-year-old woman giving birth to a child? Have you ever heard of a monk giving birth to a child?"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a burst of laughter. Everyone laughed and talked.

The imam didn't stop it, let everyone talk about it for a while, and when he saw that the discussion was almost over, he waved his hand, and then said: "In ancient times, there were demons who praised the country, and now this demon girl has come, and we will now ask God for instructions and burn this banshee." If she had done something to create, God would have stopped it. Then let's listen to God's will. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone discharged the incense case.

The imam cleaned his hands in a large copper basin, wiped them clean, lit a stick of incense, scattered his hair, and then took out a sword, twisted the sword in his hand, stepped on the gang, shook his hand, and an extra piece of paper appeared on the tip of the sword.

The Imam took a few more steps, facing the crowd, when suddenly a fire dragon spat out of his mouth and sprayed at the tip of the sword, and the paper fell on fire at once.

Everyone knows that this is a talisman, and this is a spell that the imam must know. The burning talisman floated towards the doorpost and coiled like an octopus on the archway pillar.

The talisman burned out, leaving some thin lines on the pillar, these thin lines were changing, gradually becoming thicker, and suddenly the red light was dazzling, showing two big words: "fire killing", bright and dripping.

The Imam withdrew his sword momentum and said loudly, "This is the will of heaven, return to the truth!"

Two mothers holding their children. Placed in a wooden basket, a few soldiers came and carried them towards the fire.

At this time, someone suddenly broke off and shouted: "Slow". In such a noisy crowd it clearly reaches everyone's ears. The man walked out unhurriedly, stunned everyone. This person turned out to be Ade, who had been on the run for more than 20 years.

Everyone looks at him, and he is no different from when he ran away. In terms of age, he has reached the age of old age.

The son Mainu hurriedly walked out of the crowd, and just as he was about to speak, Ade waved his hand and said, "Official, no matter whether this child is a demon or a fairy, she is a life when she comes to the world." Everyone knows that I have been practicing medicine all my life, and I have always saved people. I beg the official and the imam to give me this child to raise. Whether it is life or death, good or evil, blessing or curse, it is all up to me to bear. ”

The imam saw that it was Ade, and he was a little embarrassed. Because he told him everything about Ade, seeing that his face remained unchanged, and his voice seemed to be not loud, everyone could hear it clearly.

As a patriarch, he usually specializes in these things, and he knows that Ade has some reasons, and he doesn't want to offend him easily.

But then again, since I am the patriarch, I can't go back on my word, and what prestige will I have in the future? Especially since God's will is also fire, and it can't be changed. So he stepped forward and politely refused.

Ade faced the crowd, but still said unhurriedly: "Fathers and brothers of the inner city, you also say a fair word, is this child guilty of capital crimes?"

The crowd in front of him was silent, as if they had been strangled to death. Mainu got angry and shouted, "All the neighbors have been treated by my father and our people for generations. At this point, is it so hard to be fair?"

There was a commotion in the crowd. Finally someone spoke up and agreed to let the baby go.

The patriarch said, "God has a will, and if you kill by fire, you will be punished if you go against the will of the gods." You are not afraid, I am afraid. ”

Everyone was silent again. Then the baby girl burst out laughing, sounding like the silver bells of a young girl's laughter. Everyone saw that the baby girl was clearly laughing at the imam, her little eyes were smiling, and she stared at the imam without blinking.

The Imam felt her gaze like countless thorns, slowly piercing her back, painful and itchy, uncomfortable and abnormal, specially, what is this not a demon child?

The baby girl's laughter suddenly stopped, as if gasping heavily, and exhaling again. Everyone saw a gust of wind whirling in the fire. There was a haze and a mist above the fire, and the fire was swept up by the wind, spinning, as if dancing, jumping up and down and going straight to the sect.

The crowd exclaimed, and they didn't know which one shouted: "Patriarch run." ”

The imam came to his senses, threw down his sword, and ran. The fire danced in the wind, getting smaller and smaller, until at last it was the size of an arrow, striking the imagin's back, and then fluttering back into the fire.

By this time, the imam was already on fire and shouting for help. The crowd hurried forward to fight, but the fire grew stronger and stronger.

Ade said, "Well, he will not sin unto death." "I don't know who he's talking to. The baby girl laughed three times, and the fire was extinguished on the imam.

Ade said: "God's will is to kill by fire, not to say who to kill, and you are also considered to have fulfilled God's will." Teacher, I'll say one more thing. I am good friends with Lord Ling Zun, who is kind-hearted, helps the old and the poor, and has served for many years, and has been benefiting Sangzi. I have heard that since you took the throne, you have done many unrighteous things in the name of God. I advise you to do it yourself, otherwise the disaster will not follow, and the real fire will be in your Excellency, hoping for self-love. ”

He turned around and said a few more words to the palace officials. The official said, "That's it, the neighbors are all scattered." ”

The patriarch was full of shame, saw that he was already unclothed, did not dare to say more, and quietly walked away.

Jinghui felt even more embarrassed when she saw Ade's appearance, so she didn't dare to come over, but just went to the palace officials to bow and thank you, and then went directly to the wooden basket to hold the child.

Mainu came over and bowed to his Lao Tzu four times, and then stood up and stood beside him, everyone was looking at the two of them, no matter how they looked like father and son, but like brothers, and Ade seemed to be younger, and everyone exclaimed again.

The palace official spoke: "Master Jinghui, just do what you just said, the child is handed over to the old doctor to raise, you are not so blessed, you can't suppress her." ”

Ade walked over and comforted Jinghui: "The pure one is self-purifying, Master, please don't worry too much, I don't want to take your child, it's not convenient to tell you the reason." Will definitely give the child back to you in the future. Now choose a name for your child, so that you can recognize your child in the future. ”

Mai Nu hurriedly went to the case, picked up a pen and paper, came to his Lao Tzu, and looked at Jinghui.

At this time, Jinghui had calmed down, took the pen and paper, and was just about to put down the pen, when the baby girl suddenly cried, the mother and son were connected, and Jinghui walked over quickly. But the baby girl snatched the pen, stopped crying, pointed to the paper with the pen, and stared at it with her eyes.
