There are tears in the beads [derived from the history of martial arts]

, I actually cried.

Ah Fei was sleeping on the inner side of the bed, it turned out that Shen Lang's arms tightened around him during his nightmare, and he woke up in pain.Fortunately, it was Ah Fei's crying that pulled Shen Lang back from the nightmare of Tian Moyin and saved his life, but Shen Lang didn't know it at this time.

After coaxing his son back to sleep, Shen Lang got up and went to the table to pour a glass of water, the mouth was cold and piercing to the heart, just like his current state of mind.Everything in the dream was vivid, he thought of the welts on Feifei's back, the countless ants crawling on her arms, did she come here for so many years?

Shen Lang couldn't help tightening his chest, the whip in his dream seemed to have touched his heart, and the pain was unbearable.Feifei, Brother Shen was not sincere enough, cheated you with your mother, and broke your heart.No matter what, I must find you, and I will never give up on you this time!

Shen Lang woke up from the dream and no longer felt sleepy. He took the hair knot and rubbed it repeatedly in his hands. This was the only thought Feifei left for him.Originally, he buried his hair knots under the sycamore tree in the backyard, but when he left Renyi Villa, he accidentally dug them out and took them with him.It just happened to be such a coincidence that Feifei needed her hair to be used as medicine, perhaps it was God's will.

After an unknown amount of time, Leng San knocked on Shen Lang's door and invited him downstairs for dinner.Leng Er was already waiting downstairs, and on the table were the incense, candles, flowers, fruits and other things he had just bought.

The three of them had a simple breakfast, and then followed the path pointed out by the waiter in the shop to the southeast. After a while, they saw a temple located on the bank of the Songjiang River, surrounded by layers of holly pine forests, and it was difficult to see into the depths due to the mist.

Shen Lang and the others tied their horses outside the temple gate and walked in with their luggage. It was already [Chen Shi].

The area of ​​the front hall is not too large, and there are three female statues in the middle, on which there is a plaque "Songzi Niangniang".The person sitting in the middle is dressed in crimson, holding a baby in swaddling arms, and a seven or eight-year-old child on his shoulders; the person standing on the left is hydrating Tsing Yi, holding a purple bamboo leaf in his left hand, and holding a ten-year-old child in his right hand. The young boy above and below, the young boy combed his hair in double buns and wore double [Chi] collars around his neck; the person standing on the right is white clothes Ruoxue, with gold bracelets and silver bells on his wrists, embracing a three or four-year-old girl. The girl is wearing a phoenix A red apron with a peony pattern.

There is an incense burner in the middle of the confession case, a vase of flower arrangements on each side, and several dishes of offering fruits on the table.

The two priests in the temple are young Taoist nuns in their twenties, wearing gray sermon robes and wearing different ebony hairpins.One person uses the plum blossom pattern to call it plum shadow, and the other uses the bamboo leaf pattern to call it bamboo shadow.

The two female crowns were startled when they saw Shen Lang and the others, most of the people who came to the temple were women, some couples also went together, it was rare to see men in company.

Leng Er was quick-witted, stepped forward and bowed and said: "The two priests have invited you. Today, the young master of my family and the young master come to fulfill my wife's wish."

"If that's the case, [good man] please." Mei Ying clasped her fists in return, took the red candles from Leng's second hand and placed them on both sides of the confession, and then inserted flowers into a porcelain vase and placed them in front of the statue of the empress.

Zhu Ying also took the fruit offering from Leng San, put it on a plate and arranged it on the altar table.

Shen Lang put Ah Fei in the arms of Leng Er, held up three sticks of incense with his left hand according to the Taoist rules, lit them on the red candle on the left side of the Goddess statue, then held the incense in his right hand and put his left hand on the back of his right hand, and held it respectfully in front of his forehead .After a short pause, take a stick of incense with your left hand and insert it in the middle of the incense burner, then take the second stick of incense in the left position, and finally the third stick of incense in the right position.The three sticks of incense are straight and lined up in a line, and the distance between them is within an inch.

After offering incense, Shen Lang stepped back to the front of the worship mat, and made Tai Chi Yin-Yang seals with his hands, bowing once and kowtowing three times in an orderly manner.

Shen Lang carried A Fei back from Leng's second hand, and asked the two of them: "Please ask, sir, is this forest behind the temple known to return to the forest?"

Mei Ying replied: "It is said that this forest was originally nameless. In the first dynasty, its owner practiced the truth and asked, so he used the name 'Zhihui' to persuade the world to return when lost."

Shen Lang asked again: "Then there is a Jasmine Village behind this forest?"

Mei Ying said: "The legend of Mohua Village began in the previous dynasty. The people in the village either became officials in the dynasty or traveled the rivers and lakes, and disappeared several times. It is said that one of the three empresses in the temple was once Mohua. The owner of Hanamura, it's just that the age is too old to be tested."

Leng San wondered: "Isn't the Empress Sending a Child a fairy?"

Mei Ying said: "It is said that the three empresses enshrined in this temple were female folk doctors in the early dynasties. After the completion of this temple, three female doctors were enshrined as the concubine. Anyone who sincerely came to ask for a child would have a spiritual response, so the incense has been constantly burning."

Leng Er asked: "Is Jasmine Village still safe now?"

Mei Ying replied: "It is said that Emperor Zugao of the Ming Dynasty ruled the country, Mohua Village was discovered by [Bo Chengyi], and once again reappeared in the Jianghu. However, during the battle of Jingnan, [Rong Guogong] was ordered by Chengzu to hunt down Chengyi Bo Chuanren lost his trace on the bank of the Songjiang River. Duke Rong entered the Zhihui Forest to look for them. He was trapped for seven days before he escaped alone. None of his men survived. Since then, people have searched many times but failed. Mohua Village once again become a legend."

Zhu Ying sneered slightly, "It is said that Mohua Village has collected military strategies, martial arts secret books, rare treasures, etc., and there is also the art of keeping Yin and Yang in the face. Those who are destined will get it, or they will rule the world, or they will be alone in the martial arts, or they will be rich. , or immortality. If you come here for this, Pindao advises you to return as soon as possible, and don’t give up your life for a moment of greed.”

Shen Lang heard Zhuying's subtext, and hastily clarified: "The Taoist priest misunderstood, a few days ago someone sent a letter to inform me that Zhuojing was rescued by a genius doctor in Mohua Village, and I came here to find my beloved wife and seek medical treatment with my youngest son. .”

Mei Ying said: "Madam is a destined person, this time I will be able to reborn as a human again."

Leng Er was a little worried, "She was born in a wicked way, so it's good if she doesn't harm others. If she learns peerless martial arts, I'm afraid there will be another bloodbath in the world..."

Zhu Ying sneered and said: "Gossip about people behind their backs, the so-called decent family is nothing more than that."

"You!" Leng Er was slightly angry when he heard the words, and was about to argue, but was stopped by Shen Lang.

"Second Uncle Leng, Feifei's parentage is not up to her to decide. Second Uncle and Third Uncle can live temporarily in nearby villages and towns, and Yue Er will go alone." Shen Lang noticed the change in Leng Er's address for Feifei, Knowing that he has already approved of their husband and wife relationship, but he still has a grudge against Ghost Palace.

Leng San anxiously said: "Yue'er, those people are not easy to mess with because they have unique skills, why should my second brother and I rest assured that you will go alone."

"Yue'er, I made a slip of the tongue. It's inconvenient for you to drag a child by yourself. We can take care of you when we go together." Although Leng Er said this, he knew very well in his heart that Yue Qingqing could seriously injure Happy King with just a maid. If you really do it, you and the third child will be free.

Shen Lang nodded, and said to the two of them: "I don't know where this Jasmine Village is going, but I hope the Taoist priest will point out the way."

Mei Ying said: "It is said that Mohua Village is located in the depths of Zhihui Forest, good people will see them naturally if they are destined, but there is nothing they can do if they are not destined to be poor."

Hearing the words, Shen Lang bowed to thank him, and donated some [offering money], then went out with Leng Er Leng San and led the horse to the back of the temple.

Zhu Ying narrowed her eyes slightly, watching the backs of Shen Lang and the others disappear into the forest fog, with an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

Seeing her junior brother like this, Mei Ying showed a worried expression but she had no choice but to look sympathetically at the three who had left, hoping that their trip would not be too miserable.
