"How could you do this? That's your granddaughter!"
Someone immediately criticized this behavior, but Old Liu Tou asked back with disdain.
"Ha! Stop pretending to be a good person here. Have you never done anything like this before? Why didn't your little daughter get it before? Do you still want me to remind everyone?"
"you!"
The lady who spoke immediately shut her mouth, looked at the aura-filled Dahua with lingering fear, and retorted without much confidence.
"I just said something, is there such a big reaction?"
But no one paid any attention to her words, and Dahua even stared at Old Liu Tou.
"Don't say this, tell me quickly, where did you throw that child?"
"Is there any use telling you now? It's been three hours since I threw it away in the morning. She can't survive at all. You can't blame me. You have all seen the situation in our family. One is sick, one is stupid, and one is mute. Just rely on
I can't feed so many mouths by myself!"
Dahua has no sympathy for Lao Liutou.
"Since you know you can't support him, why do you still have to marry your son and have children?"
"What do you, a woman, know? I want to continue the legacy of our old Liu family. Can I do the same with a family like yours that has no family? In short, you don't have to worry about it. We are the elders of that child. We let her live.
, let her die, it’s our right! As an outsider, you’d better not worry about so much.”
At the end of the sentence, Lao Liutou's tone became stronger and he even raised his chest and raised his head.
Changsheng couldn't help but frown.
And Dahua was even more furious.
"If you can't feed yourself, you can send it to me! Didn't I say that before?"
"As for your broken Taoist temple, there is no one there all year round. Who knows how long you can support her? If you can't support her for a year or two, why don't you throw it to us? Besides, you still have one
You have a very sick mother to support, how can you support so many mouths by yourself?"
"I have raised those female dolls before, have you forgotten?"
"It was before, and now is now. The medicinal properties of the medicinal materials in the mountains are getting worse every year. Those medicinal dealers and drug stores don't want the medicinal materials here at all. Do you still want to hide it from us?"
"...Then you can't..."
Dahua was silent for a long time, then spoke with some difficulty.
"It will always be a life. The mountain god said that if we abandon the baby girl again, there will be a disaster..."
"Mountain God, Mountain God! Mountain God again!"
Old Liu Tou interrupted Dahua impatiently, with a very aggressive tone!
"If there really is a mountain god, he should show up and save us! Look what kind of life we are living now! It was fine in the early years. There were many medicinal materials and wild animals in the mountains, and everyone could barely make ends meet. But what about now?
I'm almost dying of poverty! I can't even feed myself with the grain of one-third of an acre, so how can I afford to raise the extra children?"
It turns out that was an extra child...
Changsheng closed his eyes patiently. Perhaps, he was in the same situation as that child, both were unnecessary children...
"Longevity..."
The Yuanji Impermanent Carp didn't know how to comfort Changsheng. It naturally knew what Changsheng had experienced in his early years. It wasn't as complicated as it is now. But as its fate with Changsheng became deeper and deeper, it regretted Changsheng's previous experiences more and more.
For a person, some childhood experiences can be healed in a lifetime, and some require a lifetime to heal.
Changsheng is not a fragile person, but he still cannot completely let go of his past experiences. When he meets a child who has the same experience as himself, he naturally has mixed feelings in his heart.
At this time, Old Liu Tou seemed to be getting more and more excited as he talked, and accidentally let the words slip.
"What's more, that child may also have some kind of invisible disability. Don't we Beishan people have many disabilities? Moreover, if we send her up the mountain, we can live a good life..."
"What did you say?!"
Dahua rushed forward and grabbed the opponent's collar, his eyes almost gnawing at him.
Old Liu Tou immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, but now that the matter was over, he had nothing to hide.
"She is going to die anyway, so why not make some contribution to the family before she dies?"
Changsheng didn't know why Dahua was so excited until Dahua gritted his teeth and spoke.
"You used her as a sacrifice to the mountain god?!"
hiss!
Human sacrifice?!
Now not only Dahua, but also other surrounding villagers were shocked. Old Liu Tou would actually do this!
Therefore, in the final analysis, it still has something to do with the mountain god. Changsheng was very interested in whether this mountain god was Bailu, and now he pulled the sleeve of the furious Dahua.
"Sister Dahua, actually I found the child before, but I wasn't sure if there would be bad guys at the foot of the mountain. So I hid the child before."
"Hidden?"
Dahua wanted to think about how this little girl hid a living person. It was not very reliable, but he still had a glimmer of hope, so he left with Changsheng.
Old Liu Tou behind him still didn't believe it, so he chased after him and shouted.
"I don't believe it, how could you know where I put her?"
"Actually, I didn't find the specific location. I just saw a cat running with the child in its mouth. I chased him and rescued him."
"cat?"
Lao Liutou was suddenly filled with despair and his face turned pale.
"You, you, you, you! You killed me! How can you take back the sacrifices offered to the mountain god? You are trying to kill our whole family!"
Old Liu Tou had something to say next, but Dahua hurriedly left with Changsheng, and no one listened to him, so he left it alone.
When Dahua followed Changsheng to the place where they met at the foot of the mountain, Changsheng first walked around behind a tree, then released the baby girl from the Sumeru mustard seeds, and when he walked out, Dahua had already rushed over, some
His rough hands held the lost child tightly, his face full of excitement.
When he realized that he had lost his temper, Dahua apologized to Changsheng in embarrassment, and then led Changsheng back. No one followed them in the process. The villagers looked at the two figures of Changsheng and Dahua running around in a hurry.
My face was very numb.
At this moment, Changsheng recalled that when she was looking for tasks at the exclusive monk's task office, she didn't reveal anything about Beishan. She only knew that Beishan was a quiet place with plenty of spiritual energy, and there were also spiritual herbs needed for the tasks.
Pure Moon Grass.
However, nothing is known about how the ordinary people here live their lives and whether they encounter difficulties or not.
Is the barrier between monks and mortals so deep?
After following Dahua back home, Changsheng stared at one of the tightly closed rooms. Dahua also noticed this and opened the door helplessly.
