Chapter 153: One String and One Pillar Thinking of the Chinese New Year
Hu Tao took Zhong Mo and ran out of the Purity Hall, and met an acquaintance on the street in front of Zhenbaozhai.
"What a coincidence, Xiang Ling, I didn't expect to meet you here." Hu Tao said hello to Xiang Ling.
Xiangling turned around and saw Hu Tao and Zhong Mo standing next to Hu Tao. Although Zhong Mo's figure had changed, his appearance had not changed much.
"Hello, Hutao, is this Xiaomo?"
"I haven't even said anything yet! Xiangling, how do you know she's Zhong Mo's? Look at her height and body shape, they don't match her at all, right?"
Xiangling said with a smile: "Because the master once told me about Xiaomo, I am still prepared for Xiaomo's magic, ah! By the way, I have to go to the master today to learn marksmanship.
, Dad said that when I finish learning marksmanship, he will allow me to travel! Xiaomo, Hutao, let’s talk next time!”
Seeing Xiangling running away in a hurry, Hutao looked slightly depressed: "Tch, boring, why do I feel like I am the only one who is not kept in the dark? Forget it, let's get down to business!"
Hu Tao took Zhong Mo to the market next to the city gate and bought some simple home-cooked food. Then he took Zhong Mo to the door of a very shabby-looking house and knocked on the door.
"Aunt Nianhua! I brought my friends to see you today!"
After a while, the door opened, and a woman came out. Zhong Mo could feel the uncomfortable feeling coming from the woman's body.
"It's Hall Master Hu. I'm going to trouble you again today."
"It's okay, Aunt Nianhua. We at the Rebirth Hall will definitely help you find a way to cure this disease you have!"
"Then you and your friends can go sit inside for a while, and Auntie will prepare food for you."
"Thank you, aunt!"
Hu Tao pulled Zhong Mo into the room. When Hua Nian was no longer visible, she asked Zhong Mo in a low voice.
"How's it going? Xiaomo, do you see anything?"
Zhong Mo nodded: "I can see a black energy wrapping around Aunt Nianhua's body, making her feel very uncomfortable. What's going on?"
Hu Tao nodded solemnly.
"We at the Purana Hall generally call it, entangled in karma. For thousands of years, the Purana Hall has not been able to save people who are trapped by karma. We just know that most of them will die in vain, and it is easy to produce resentful spirits after death, so
We at the Rebirth Hall can usually only monitor them at all times, eliminate their obsessions as soon as they leave, and send them to the borderland."
Zhong Mo recalled the aura suppressed by Tongque on Zhong Ying. Although it was slightly different from that on Nianhua, its essence was the same.
"If that's the case, then it is indeed possible for me to solve Aunt Nianhua's problem."
But at this moment, Nian Hua suddenly came in with dishes and said: "If possible, Hall Master Hu, can you not treat me?"
Hutao looked at Nianhua in surprise: "What do you mean? Aunt Nianhua, do you want to die?"
"But I feel like I'm doing pretty well now, Hall Master Hu. Apart from having nightmares every night, my body has become much stronger. It's much easier to go to the mountains to collect herbs or go to the dock to help work and make money."
"That's just an appearance! Aunt Nianhua, although the karma will temporarily strengthen your body, when you can't bear it anymore, you will die!"
Nianhua just smiled: "But no matter whether there is karma or not, when people can't bear it, they will die, right? Hall Master Hu."
"But……"
Nianhua interrupted Hu Tao and said to her: "It's nothing, Hall Master Hu, I need money. I'm not stupid either. I know what will happen to people with karma, but I have no choice. Yi Xian and Yi
Zhu was admitted to the best school in Wangshu City, which is a good thing. I don’t want them to be like me and have to rely on selling their physical strength to make a living in the future."
"I would also like to thank you, Master, for taking care of me during this period. If possible, you can send me off on my last journey. I will definitely be very grateful to you."
As the Shengshengtang, which has monopolized the whole of Liyue for thousands of years, perhaps Hutao will never feel the feeling of needing money in his life. Seeing that Hutao was speechless, Zhong Mo finally spoke.
"Aunt Nianhua, can you keep accounts?"
Nianhua looked at Zhong Mo strangely. Zhong Mo had been silent from the beginning. She thought that this little guy would persuade her like Hu Tao, but she didn't expect that she would ask this question.
"Why do you ask this all of a sudden? Because I have to clean up the medicinal materials frequently, so I still know how to do some simple counting."
"That's good. Qixing is going to build a new temple for the Bronze Bird Immortal recently. Now there is only one old woman in the temple. It is naturally very difficult for an old man to manage a big temple, so I think we need a temple blessing to help, but I don't know.
Is Aunt Nianhua interested? Of course, as an official building built by Qixing, Aunt Nianhua naturally doesn’t have to worry about salary."
Nian Hua seemed a little unbelievable: "Really? Can I do it?"
Zhong Mo took out the jade pendant that Ningguang had given to her. It represented her special identity and represented that she was the dark star of Tianquan Ningguang.
"Yes, that's all."
Facing Nian Hua lying on the ground, Zhong Mo withdrew his hand that had just covered her forehead.
"Okay, let's go here today. Aunt Nianhua, you should be able to have a good sleep tonight. As for the remaining karma, it will take several times to clear it."
Because she had just purified the karma suppressed by Tongque, Zhong Mo's soul was still in a state of exhaustion, and she could not take the risk of excessively purifying the karma in Nianhua.
"Thank you, Lord Zhong Mo."
"You don't have to be so outgoing, Aunt Nianhua, if you can, you can call me Xiaomo. Speaking of which, when we were in Wangshu City, Yi Xian Yi Zhu and I often played together."
After leaving Nianhua's house, Hu Tao and Zhong Mo walked on the street. Hu Tao looked obviously happy.
"It seems that Aunt Nianhua is fine. Is this the way of immortals? I'm so envious. She is completely different from us. If it were me, the most I can do is let Aunt Nianhua's soul rest in peace."
"Is human life so fragile, so there are so many fantasies about the afterlife?"
Hutao thought of her grandfather. When she arrived at the border alone, she tried to find her grandfather's soul, but the soul there told her.
[This is a place where only souls with regrets and resentments come. How could someone like Old Hutou come to such a place? 】
