The villagers did not dare to get too close to Yun Qing, and they were also suspicious of the crazy old woman, but everyone wanted to watch the excitement. en8.

"Aren't you afraid of retribution for not sparing such a young child?"

The old woman started crying, holding the child's clothes in her hands, her voice was sad and heartbreaking.

Yun Qing smiled softly, slowly fiddled with the rosary beads, and watched her wailing on the ground without saying a word. This made the people around me feel a little chilly in their hearts. They thought that this holy monk did not explain or refute. What did he mean by just smiling like this

"What a sin, what a sin! If you kill my child, you will definitely die a good death!" The old woman's words became increasingly unobstructed. Her eyes were red, her hair was disheveled, and she was in a state of madness.

Yun Qing raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing the word "Nie Zhan". She chuckled and said, "Where is the body?"

The old woman's voice fell silent for a moment, but she immediately started crying again.

"Please think carefully about this donor... Where did the child's body go?" Yun Qing's voice cut through the noisy discussion and the old woman's cry, and filled the clear air.

"You killed my child, shouldn't you be the one who knows best about it!?" The old woman shouted to Yun Qing without any fear, "I saw it with my own eyes yesterday. It was this monster monk who strangled my child to death. !”

To everyone's surprise, Yun Qing actually nodded and said, "I do know where the body is."

"Please, please ask the holy monk to talk about it." Some onlookers stammered and urged.

Yun Qing stood there and raised his Zen staff, and the people around him immediately dispersed. She gently tapped the old woman's belly with her Zen staff and said, "I didn't expect that the old woman's teeth are so good. How did the meat porridge taste last night?"

When the old woman was touched by Yun Qing's Zen staff, she suddenly became quiet like a poisonous snake that was pinched seven inches. The surrounding herdsmen also fell into a deathly silence. They heard some terrible facts from these words.

"You emptied the lamb carcass in the sheepfold a few days ago, right? I warned you last night that evildoers will eventually reap the consequences. Can you feel the corpse worms slowly squirming in your abdominal cavity now?"

Yun Qing came closer and leaned down in front of the limp old woman. She sniffed the surrounding scent and said with a smile: "It is difficult to practice cultivation when you are old, so why do you want to cause trouble?"

The old woman opened her mouth wide and her eyes almost popped out, but when she was touched by the Zen staff, her whole body became weak.

Yun Qing felt that the smell of sex in the air was getting stronger and stronger. Even the herdsmen around him could smell it. Many people covered their noses and ran away. en8. When she saw this, she let go of her Zen staff to suppress the old woman, and heard a heart-rending scream.

"Sang'er! My son! My mother hurts so much! Come and save her!"

The old woman was writhing on the ground in pain, and her abdomen continued to bulge, as if something was about to escape. Whenever the people around had seen such a scene, they were all frightened and ran to get farm tools to defend themselves.

"Sang'er, son's son! Son's son, son's son! Now mother and you will never be separated again!"

"Sonny! Come back to life, come back to life from your mother's belly!!"

Yun Qing looked at her coldly and stepped back a little. The old woman's fingertips were stiffly bent in her direction and dug into the soil hard. The fingernails were lifted up and her hands were covered with blood. She used the Buddhist aura on the Zen staff to touch the belly of the old woman. The countless corpse insects living in the old woman's body were stimulated by this naturally incompatible aura, and instantly became a mess. And this old woman doesn't seem to know how to appease these corpse bugs. If she continues to be in such a mess, she will only be eaten clean by the corpse bugs from the inside.

You couldn't tell whether the old woman's roar was pleasure or pain. She rolled and screamed like this for a long time, and then suddenly made a high-pitched and hoarse dying sound.

"Ahhh!!"

After the old woman said this, she stiffened up, clasped the ground with one hand, covered her stomach with the other, and fell motionless on the ground.

Yun Qing turned her over with a Zen staff, and the herdsmen around her made sounds of vomiting from time to time.

Her abdomen was turned open like a ripe fruit that burst open, and densely packed black flying insects crawled out of the abdominal cavity. Some of these insects are still in the form of pupae, and some have spread their slender wings to fly.

Yun Qing picked up a handful of sand from the ground and quickly threw it on the old woman's belly before the bugs ran out. He kept chanting the Great Light Curse.

Once the black flying insects were buried in the fine sand, they turned into black smoke and disappeared.

"Amitabha, the poor monk has prayed for this female benefactor. Please bury her." Yun Qing let go of the rosary and clasped his hands together.

This old woman is indeed not in her right mind.

Yun Qing had long known that the child picked up from the snow would not live long, and she even knew how difficult it was to feed a sick and weak child these days, but she still handed the child into the hands of the old woman. Because the smell of the old woman still concerned her, a faint smell of decay that was masked by human anger.

This is so similar to Yu Tu from back then.

But then the crazy old woman didn't do anything to the child, and secretly got him a lamb from the sheepfold. As soon as Yun Qing looked at the lamb, he was convinced that the old woman and Yu Tu practiced the same method, but she seemed to only know the part about controlling corpse insects, which was much worse than Yu Tu's.

People's hearts are always hard to understand. Yun Qing thought that the crazy old woman really wanted to provide for the child, but she didn't expect that something happened before she left. Not only did she stew the child into porridge while she was in a daze, she actually identified Yun Qing as the murderer after discovering that the child was missing.

Now that Yun Qing thinks about it, it is not incomprehensible that she is so mad. This old woman has no qualifications to practice Taoism at all, her spiritual platform is filthy, and her body is riddled with holes. If she forced herself to learn some evil Taoist techniques, she would naturally get lost in all kinds of Taoist techniques, go crazy, and eventually suffer backlash and eat her food.

Not only the evil practices, but also the orthodox ones in the Holy Land often have trouble escaping the danger of being possessed by fire. If the state of mind is not enough, one cannot forcibly comprehend the great path, otherwise the deviations in the process may make people regret it throughout their lives. This is also the reason why all direct descendants of the Holy Land have to go through countless tests before they dare to pass it on. If the inheritance is not human, the disaster left in the future will not be as simple as torma stewed in porridge.

Yun Qing found a relatively calm young man among the herdsmen, walked up to him and asked: "Unfortunately, this female benefactor was disturbed by evil ways. The poor monk is willing to eliminate the troubles for the ranch. I wonder if you can tell the poor monk about this." What’s going on in the female donor’s daily life?”

The young man was startled and his face turned a little pale, but he still answered honestly: "The crazy old lady has never been out of the pasture, and I don't know where she learned the magic..."

"Who said they have never been out of the pasture?" A dark-skinned woman next to her said loudly.

Yun Qing looked at the woman and said warmly, "Oh? I wonder what she did when she went out?"

"I went to your temple for a conversion ceremony two years ago. When I came back, I felt even more crazy. At that time, we all moved further south to graze our cattle. The old woman was alone and no one wanted to take her with her, so she I stayed by myself. I saw that she was really lonely on weekdays, so I often chatted with her, and then I realized that she had actually been to Guiling Temple in Daxue Mountain!"

Yun Qing frowned and thanked: "Did she ever mention the things on the road?"

The woman shook her head and said, "She spoke in a very confused manner. I only understood the conversion ceremony, but I didn't understand much of the rest."

"This place is so far away from Guiling Temple. How did she find it?" Yun Qing felt that there were more and more doubts about this matter. In the beginning, there was Yu Tu, the person who manipulated the rotten corpses to attack her a month ago, and the crazy old lady in front of her who was obsessed with it. The evil cultivator seemed to have never hidden his presence on this prairie.

Yu Tu is an elder of the zombie sect, and the person who manipulated the zombies to attack her is probably a cultivator who has already entered Taoism, but this crazy old lady is just an ordinary person. It seems that most of her problems were related to the conversion ceremony. If she had entered the evil path before participating in the ceremony, then Guiling Temple could not have been unaware of it. Probably something went wrong on her way back from Guiling Temple.

"This... I don't know." The woman's face was dark and she couldn't answer.

Yun Qing raised his hands to cover his eyes, and began to run the heavenly book, following the cause and effect with this woman to penetrate it bit by bit.

"I thought too simply..." After a long time, Yun Qing slowly put down his hand and sighed silently in his heart.

This point of cause and effect is completely cut off. No matter how deep it penetrates, nothing can be seen.

With her current cultivation level, even if she doesn't use the source of vitality to run the heavenly book, she should still be able to omit everything for such an ordinary old lady, but she can't see the secret in it. Someone must have taken action to cover up the mysteries of these evil cultivators, and to be able to hide the secrets of heaven and earth like the Book of Heaven, the opponent's strength must be at least close to the level of Grand Master Dajing.

There may be an off-screen person standing behind the other person.

Yun Qing has another piece of the division of power in the northwest prairie in his mind. In addition to Mianfenglang and Guiling Temple, there is also a mysterious power. For some purpose, they spread this destructive evil technique, but so far the two holy places have been shielded by heaven and have not responded.

While thinking about how to find a breakthrough from these three forces, she walked towards the old woman's cabin.

Although some things can escape the penetration of the Book of Heaven, the actual physical evidence cannot escape. Since you can't directly use the Heavenly Book to find out the reason, you might find something else by looking through the old woman's hut.

Sure enough, Yun Qing found half a piece of coarse cloth from under the stove, and briefly sketched a few strokes with carbon strips on the cloth. The shape of the northwest plateau can be vaguely seen, and the outlined place happens to extend from Xinshui Ranch to Guiling Temple. It's a pity that half of the cloth was burned, and the fight stopped not far from Guiling Temple.

The black magic flame rose in Yun Qing's hand and burned the remaining strips of cloth cleanly.

This time her return route basically coincided with the one on the banner. She was afraid that she would probably encounter this group of people during this short journey, but Yun Qing had no intention of changing her route.

Now is a troubled time, and the presence of evil cultivators has made this already chaotic situation even more difficult to predict. Yun Qing's plan to get the true copy of the Lotus Heart Void Hidden Concept from Guiling Temple requires a seamless plan, and there is no room for any variables.

Furthermore, since there is an outsider behind the evil cultivator, does it mean that the other person holds the inheritance that can lead to enlightenment? Studying the Tao of the world and understanding the laws of the world, the great road that Yun Qing has longed for may be here, and she will be in danger for it even if she doesn't know.

She didn't know what was ahead, but if she didn't go and take a look, she would never know it for the rest of her life, and this kind of confusion was something Yun Qing could never bear. She and Tianshu can be said to complement each other.
