Chapter 40: The Dongda Temple opens the gates and asks for a slash

In fact, the nun wanted to say that her life was originally picked up, but she was worried that being recognized by the land dragon would be unfavorable to the apricot blossom hiding under the bed, so she changed her words improvised.

This nun is none other than Wang Ma, who once saved Xinghua's life in Liu's Mansion in Xiaogushan and was cornered by Liu's Mansion. Just now she saved Xinghua again. Just now, when Xinghua hurriedly ran in, she was cleaning the yard.

Xinghua suddenly looked up at her, and Wang Ma, who was wearing a monk's robe, was also looking at Xinghua with a pair of eyes. Wang Ma's eyes showed a look of déjà vu, but Xinghua didn't recognize Wang Ma.

When Xinghua opened her mouth to speak for help, Wang Ma shouted in surprise: "Are you Xinghua?"

Xinghua was stunned for a while, and seemed to not believe her eyes: "You are the princess, save me, someone is chasing me!"

"Quick, follow me!" said Wang's mother, and in surprise she grabbed Xinghua and ran to her house.

At this time, Wang Ma saw that Lu Long was gone, so she stepped forward and closed the door. Then, she returned to the bedroom, pulled the apricot blossom out from under the bed, and the two women, who were also suffering from the same fate, embraced each other with joy and sorrow, and told each other about parting......

It turned out that Wang Ma was rescued from Liu's Mansion by Erhu that night, and after recuperating from her injuries at Aunt Zhang's house, she went to Lucao County and went to find her sister Wang Lianhua, who was an actor in the county theater, but Wang Lianhua didn't know where to go. Helpless and desperate, Wang Ma walked into the "Jingxinzhai" and cut her hair for a nun.

Later, her master unfortunately died, and Wang's mother became the host of "Jingxin Zhai". The name is "Jing Ci". In fact, she is a nun in this meditation fast, and she is presiding over herself.

Usually, there are people who come in and spend a few incense money. Since the war, few people have come in, so the princess is quiet here. I just feel lonely and lonely. After Xinghua came, she had endless words to talk to her.

Xinghua told Wang's mother about her misfortune, she was not worried about her husband and mother-in-law, and wanted to leave the county, but it was already dark at this time. Wang's mother left Xinghua behind, and then helped her find a way to leave the county tomorrow. When I got up the next morning, Xinghua had to leave after eating some fasting at the "Jing Xin Zhai".

Wang Ma said, "You wait a while." I'll see if there's anyone at the door. After saying that, Wang Ma walked to the door and opened the door, poked her head out and looked around, it was broken! Yesterday, the land dragon of the county government came again. He also brought three or five policemen to wander around Jing Xin Zhai.

Wang's mother quickly closed the door. said to Xinghua: "That chubby person outside is the land dragon of the county government, right?"

"Yes. Xinghua nodded and said in surprise: "He's here again? ”

Wang Ma said: "I have seen Lu Long in Liu's Mansion, I know him, but he doesn't know me." ”

"What should I do then? ”

"Don't worry, wait a minute. Your husband and your mother-in-law are fine, yes, I'm afraid that mountain bag is long gone. ”

"But my heart always felt unsteady, as if something was going to happen to them. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll take you to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva in a while. Just make a wish with her. ”

But for five days, Xinghua still did not leave the county. Because the land dragon touches the apricot blossoms in person or sends someone to touch the apricot blossoms in front of the meditation gate every day.

Xinghua was very anxious. When she got up early in the morning on the sixth day, Wang Ma saw that Xinghua insisted on leaving, and while she was wearing monk's clothes, she suddenly came up with a good way to let Xinghua get out of the county......

Wang Ma put on the monk's clothes, and quickly took out a set of monk's clothes from the cabinet and said, "Xinghua, hurry up and change into this set of clothes, this is the clothes my master wore when he was alive." ”

Xinghua looked at it, shook her head and said, "Mother Wang, what are you going to do, I'm ...... I'm not a monk, and I still have a lot of unfinished worries in this world. ”

Wang Ma smiled and said, "Who made you a monk, I asked you to wear this dress and pretend to be a nun to get out of the county." ”

"Oh...... That's fine. Xinghua said, and put on the monk's robe and hat under the service of Wang Ma. When I looked in the mirror, I really changed my appearance and became an authentic beautiful nun!

"Not bad...... not bad" After Wang Ma saw it, she praised it a few times: "Apricot blossoms are beautiful, no matter what clothes you wear, they look good." ”

"Mother Wang, I'm in a hurry. Why are you still laughing......" Xinghua said, getting up and leaving.

Wang Ma said, "Wait, I'll go out and have a look." ”

After a while, Wang Ma came back, with a festive look on her face: "Let's go, there is no one outside today, I will send you out of the county seat." ”

So, Xinghua followed Wang Ma out of the gate of Jingxinzhai and walked towards the gate of the city.

They had just walked a short distance when suddenly five or six policemen appeared on the street in front of them, carrying a wooden pole, and rushed to drive the crowd towards the side of the Green Grass Dongda Temple, only to hear a policeman shouting loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”

Pedestrians on the road have taken refuge to the side. Xinghua and Wang Ma heard passers-by nearby: "Come and see the excitement, Xiao Jianxia, the leader of the peasant rebel army in Cuiping Mountain, was caught by the officials and soldiers sent by the imperial court, and he is about to be beheaded!"

Xinghua was shocked when she heard this, what Xiao Jianxia was arrested? Can't leave! I'd rather be arrested myself, and have a look over there, then Xiao Jianxia is her own savior! So, Xinghua hurriedly said to Wang Ma: "Did you hear? Xiao Jianxia was arrested by the government, and he was about to be beheaded, he is my savior, I won't leave, I'll go to the Dongda Temple to see." ”

"Huh?" Wang Ma exclaimed in surprise, then thought for a while and said, "Xinghua, you have been here for several days, and it is hard to catch up with no one to spy on you today, but you ...... Hey, you're such a loving and righteous person. Well, by the way, today is the temple fair of the Dongda Temple on the 18th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and I will accompany you. ”

Wang Ma was moved by the righteousness of the apricot blossom, and led the apricot blossom to the Dongda Temple with the flow of people.

Today's Green Grass East Temple is very lively, because the government has plastered the notices of opening the swordsman all over the streets and alleys, and people have come here invariably.

On the square in front of the Dongda Temple, half of it is a market full of traffic, bustling and rubbing shoulders, and half of it is a killing field opened by the government. Some people don't just come to the market to buy things, but mainly to join in the fun.

A few ragged beggars cowered in a corner of the market, looking at the hurried and insensitive pedestrians with a special gaze, as if they could find food and fill their stomachs here; some poor people took the few copper coins they had at home in exchange for their necessary salt and clothing; and some people were penniless at all, just to feast their eyes on the temple fair, especially today, when the government was openly killing people here, so there were several times more people watching the excitement than usual......
