Chapter 47 The ashes were carried
Zhao Hai?
Jiang Anning thought she was dazzled.
Zhao Hai was obviously being held in the county jail. How could he suddenly appear in such a mixed place?
But she was very sure that the person who just flashed across her sight was Zhao Hai!
Even if that face is burned to ashes...she will never admit it!
Jiang Anning calmed down and thought about it, but still didn't catch up.
She only saw clearly the person's face at that moment, but it was actually far away from where the person was at that time.
Even if I catch up now, it won't help.
Not long after returning to the teahouse, I happened to see Dr. Tea coming to refill the cup.
Jiang Anning smiled and waved her hand, indicating that there was no need to add more, stood up and pretended to leave.
When I got back to the inn, I deliberately chatted with the waiter for a few words, showing that I was very tired and not used to the noise, and then I went back to my room.
She didn't know if she was being too careful by leaving traces everywhere.
But he accidentally discovered that he was being followed... Even Jiang Wei, who was specially named by the county magistrate to be the village leader, might have other motives.
Jiang Anning was lying by the window, looking at the sparkling river with moonlight pouring down in a daze, trying to think clearly about some messy things that made people confused.
Why were those people staring at her?
Why is Jiang Wei's arrival such a coincidence?
What was his purpose when he broke into her house?
And those so-called "tribesmen" who broke into her home after her parents died...were they really her parents' clansmen?
Those people's accents sound nothing like my parents'.
On the contrary, the accents are very similar to those of the people around Jiang Wei.
After much thought, she couldn't come up with any idea.
She thought a little irritably, since God had given her a gift, why did it only make her eyesight better but not her brain?
But after thinking about it, she quickly put her hands together and apologized.
God has been very kind to her, and she must not have such greedy thoughts.
Auntie once told her that only by being content can you always be happy.
Jiang Anning looked at the Yingzhan Moon with a corner missing in the sky, thinking that it had been a long time since she had paid homage to her parents.
In her previous life, since she married Zhao Hai, the Zhao family never allowed her to go out to worship.
At the beginning, she secretly bought paper money for incense candles and worshiped twice on the pretext of offering incense and praying.
Until one time she used the same excuse again, pretending to go to the temple to offer incense, but she was caught unawares by Zhao Yinlian...
Later, when she returned home, Zhao Yinlian, who had clearly accepted a pair of gold earrings from her to please her, directly complained to her about going to worship her parents in front of the whole family.
The Zhao family's expressions immediately changed.
Jiang Anning didn't understand why they were so taboo about her worshiping her parents. It seemed that if she went to worship her deceased parents after she was married, they would be in bad luck. They were guarding against her.
But even though she was young and inexperienced, she had never heard of such customs and taboos.
Everyone in the Pian Zhao family felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Zhao Hai even slapped her several times, so that she didn't even have a chance to defend herself and beg for mercy. Her face was swollen like a bee sting, and her mouth hurt even when she squirmed.
What's even more strange is that after they learned that her parents were not actually buried at the place where the monument was built in the village, their expressions were extremely ugly, as if they were about to face the disaster of annihilation, and they wished they could beat her to death alive.
Jiang Anning never thought about it carefully before.
Now that I think about it again, I realize something is wrong.
She stood up straight, and her gaze suddenly became sharp as she faced the river.
That day, she was afraid that Zhao Yinlian would complain after returning home and cause trouble for her, so she begged people in a low voice to help her cover up.
On the way, Zhao Yinlian first proposed to go to the best restaurant in the county to have a good meal. She was 'pinched', so naturally she did not dare to object.
During the meal, Zhao Yinlian asked many questions about her parents and why she went to the temple instead of the cemetery to pay her respects secretly.
She didn't think much about it at the time, and it was because she was always honest. When people asked, she told the truth...
Later, Zhao Yinlian asked her to buy a pair of gold pendants.
She didn't have that much money on her at the time, but in the face of people's impatience, she still gave in, gritted her teeth, and shamelessly asked the shopkeeper for half of the price on credit.
Unexpectedly, after returning home and getting the gold pendant, Zhao Yinlian betrayed her without hesitation.
Seeing that she was slapped by Zhao Hai, Zhao Yinlian even proudly revealed that the real place where her parents were buried was actually the temple where she went to offer incense.
Jiang Anning remembered very clearly that when the Zhao family heard that Zhao Yinlian said that the bones of her parents were not buried in the woods to the east of the village, their faces were as dark as ink, and their eyes looked as if they were going to tear her apart.
Even Zhao Yuanshan, who rarely spoke in such matters and always maintained a good-natured image, became anxious and kept asking what was going on.
Later, she received countless punches and kicks. She only felt that her whole body was in terrible pain. She fainted without even begging for a few times.
When she woke up again, Zhao's house was empty and she was the only one left.
She dragged her heavy body up and boiled a pot of hot water, briefly cleaned the wound and applied medicated oil.
Jiang Anning remembered very clearly that Zhao Hai disliked the strong smell of medicated oil, so she specially mixed scented medicated oil for use.
But because the incident happened suddenly that day, the medicinal oil she had prepared had already been used up.
The pain was really severe, so she applied less medicated oil bought from the drug store before she had time to adjust the flavor.
As a result, the Zhao family suddenly came back from outside.
She was scared to death and thought she was going to be beaten again.
Unexpectedly, the entire Zhao family seemed to have been changed. Their faces were full of joy, and they even spoke to her much more kindly.
Zhao Hai didn't even mind the smell of the medicinal oil and helped her apply it himself. He was obedient and did not pay for it. He made her dizzy and thought that the family had suddenly woken up... She was so stupid to think that she was a wolf with white eyes. A day with a guilty conscience.
Jiang Anning now thinks about all the things that happened back then, and is shocked to realize that there were many strange things at that time.
Thinking of this, she became more and more uneasy.
At this time, she felt as if she was in an intricate web of mist that could not be sorted out or dismantled. She couldn't figure out the joints and her head ached.
After washing up hastily, Jiang Anning took a deep nap.
She slept restlessly all night.
Just like that day, she had another dream.
The scene in the dream was not very clear. She only felt pain in her heart, and the sounds of rummaging and breaking echoed in her ears.
She desperately wanted to open her eyes and see clearly what was going on around her.
With great difficulty, his eyelids opened a crack, and in his cloudy and dim vision, he could just barely see clearly the various stone Buddha statues standing all around.
Someone is overturning those kind-hearted stone Buddhas.
The gravel hit the ground, making a painful sound.
Jiang Anning felt a little suffocated, as if she couldn't breathe, and it was painfully tight.
She covered her heart, trying to catch her breath.
His vision became clearer at this moment.
She saw some people whose faces were unclear, smashing and looting in a dilapidated old temple.
See clearly!
Jiang Anning's breathing became rapid.
These people were vandalizing and destroying the property wantonly, digging three feet into the ground where her parents' ashes were buried.
She desperately wanted to scream and rush forward to stop those people, but it was to no avail.
She couldn't make a sound, let alone move.
I could only watch helplessly as they toppled one pagoda after another.
Watching them find the ashes of her father and mother, smash them to the ground and break into pieces.
It started to rain at some point.
The ashes scattered on the ground were quickly washed away by the rain, mixed with mud and water, and flowed into the gaps in the stone slabs.
don't want……
Jiang Anning woke up with a cry, dripping with sweat, as if she had just been caught in the rain.
She stared blankly at the lamp that had not been blown out before going to bed. It seems that the candle inside is about to burn out, dim and swaying, as if it will be extinguished at any time.
The creaking doors and windows, as if they were about to be broken by the strong wind, brought back Jiang Anning's thoughts.
She stared blankly for a while, then slowly got something, walked over and closed the window with a numb expression.
got windy.
The moment the window sash closed, there was a strong wind and rain, thunder and lightning.
Raindrops smashed in through the cracks in the window and fell coldly on Jiang Anning's face.
It's raining.
Jiang Anning poured a cup of coarse tea that had already gone cold and turned bitter. As if she couldn't taste it, she drank it in a few sips.
What does the dream foreshadow for her?
That day she dreamed that after she died, someone cursed at her body...
When he woke up, he found Jiang Wei coming in over the wall.
What about this time?
Or maybe it was just a coincidence before and she was just thinking.
Jiang Anning became more and more restless as she listened to the rain outside, and sat there until dawn.
It should have dawned early.
It was just a cloudy day, and I was groggy, and it was not until almost the end that I saw a faint light.
Jiang Anning had a hasty breakfast at the inn, thinking of staying a few more days, but hurriedly checked out without even asking for rent.
Turning around to the Huafang, I was not surprised to meet the night lady who came out to buy breakfast.
When no one was paying attention, she whispered softly close to the person: "I have to go out and I won't be back until tomorrow. Can you do it alone?"
"no problem!"
The wife gave her a reassuring look.
Jiang Anning nodded and left in a hurry without stopping.
She wanted to take a look at the place where her parents' ashes were stored, otherwise she would always feel uneasy.
I originally thought about renting a carriage, but the roads were muddy after the rain, and almost no one wanted to go to such a remote and lonely place.
Jiang Anning couldn't help it. She couldn't ride a horse, so she had to walk.
The road was unsurprisingly difficult.
She stepped deeper and deeper, and finally reached the foot of the ruined temple mountain.
Looking at the stone steps shrouded in mist and unable to see the appearance of a ruined temple, Jiang Anning was still feeling panicked.
She didn't care to rest and stepped forward.
When we climbed to the gate of Broken Temple Mountain, the sun quietly came out and cast a dazzling light.
Jiang Anning raised her hand to block it.
My body was warmed by the direct sunlight, but my back was always cold for no reason.
She stepped into the ruined temple with a slightly heavy heart.
This old and dilapidated temple is usually not visited by many people, and no cultivators hang out here.
At most, people who pass by here occasionally and are not afraid of taboos come in to rest and take shelter from the wind and rain.
Only then did Jiang Anning realize that something was even more wrong!
Few people come here, let alone a ruined temple without incense. Why did Zhao Yinlian show up?
Ordinary people, looking at such a dilapidated ancient temple, are afraid that it is too late to be disgusted and disgusted.
Not to mention, there are rumors nearby that this ruined temple is a ghost temple that can eat people...
Most people are afraid of getting close to this place.
Zhao Yinlian, who has always been timid and afraid of getting into trouble, has any reason to come here?
Unless, from the beginning, Zhao Yinlian had another purpose.
Jiang Anning calmed down and continued walking inside.
Along the way, dead branches and leaves fell everywhere, and she almost fell into a pit many times.
After finally reaching the Hundred Buddha Pagoda on the back mountain, Jiang Anning breathed a sigh of relief when she looked at the intact pagoda and the ashes of her parents placed in a certain pagoda.
so far so good.
Nothing happened, everything was just her nightmare.
【hiss! This native woman was really miserable. Her parents' ashes were hidden so secretly, and they were eventually smashed. 】
Jiang Anning's eyes widened for a moment.
Not a nightmare?
Her parents' ashes were really smashed!
who is it?
Why would those people do such a thing?
Why would she have such a dream?
Jiang Anning wanted to ask for the truth, but in the end she couldn't communicate with the words in front of her.
After briefly paying homage to his parents, Jiang Anning cleaned up the traces left behind and hurried back.
She couldn't wait to find out who was thinking about destroying her parents' ashes.
We drove quickly and entered the city before dark.
After calming down, she couldn't help but feel confused again.
She wanted to find out the whole story, but...how? What else can be checked?
Jiang Anning was at a loss for a long time, with no clue.
Instead of going to the inn by the river, she wandered around, wrapped up all her hair, put a few handfuls of ashes on her face, pretended to be a powerful trafficker who came to the city to do hard work, and rented a side room in the courtyard.
When it was quiet outside, Jiang Anning closed her eyes and had a deep sleep.
The next day, when it was still dark outside, she got up and left.
After walking around in a long circle, using a wet handkerchief to wipe off the dust on his face, and briefly tidying himself up, Jiang Anning went to the backyard of the embroidery shop while there was no one on the street.
Song Yao washed his hands at night and came out. Seeing that it was still dark, he was about to go back and take a nap.
Suddenly I heard someone knocking on the back door, and I was frightened.
"Who?"
Her tone was not good, and she really couldn't think of anyone who would knock on her door leisurely at this time when the breakfast vendor had not even left the stall.
"Sister Song, it's me."
"peaceful?"
Song Yao opened the door and was shocked when he saw the haggard-looking Jiang Anning.
"What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Anning was still wearing trousers and shoes that were stained with mud.
"Where have you been? How did you end up like this?"
"You look so bad too."
"Come in, come in."
Song Yao hurriedly welcomed the person into the house.
at the same time.
Jiang Wei also discovered that Jiang Anning was not at home.
