Yu Jiao wanted to accompany them inside for a while, so Ming Shu walked out of the police station first. There were some people who gathered to watch from the outside.
This was all that was good about the town. They didn’t even need to use phones to send messages. With a loud shout, the entire town would know the news.
When Ming Shu came out, someone asked her about the investigation.
Ming Shu smiled and said she didn’t know. She squeezed out of the crowd.
A person in front hurriedly moved toward her. Ming Shu dodged quickly so that she wasn’t bumped into.
The man staggered and looked up at the person in front of him.
“It’s you, little Taoist nun.”
Ming little Taoist nun Shu: “…”
Ming Shu nodded and made way for him. The man did not seem to have any intention of stopping and quickly left.
Ming Shu hadn’t gone far when the man caught up with her again.
“Little Taoist nun, little Taoist nun…”
The man panted and said, “Little Taoist nun, listen to me. Something happened to one of our relatives. Could you go with me and help check on him?”
“Me?” Ming Shu pointed at herself.
I’m not wearing a Taoist robe today.
Moreover, I look so beautiful that he shouldn’t come to me, right?
Is he trying to deceive me so that he can inherit my snacks?
Actually, the man really had no one else to turn to. He had asked for help from anyone who might be helpful, but it didn’t make any difference.
The eminent monk in the nearby temple was not around. When the man encountered Ming Shu, he remembered that she wore a Taoist robe, so he decided to just give it a try.
Ming Shu was reluctant to go, but the man followed her. Coincidentally, that village was on Ming Shu’s way back to Wuliang Mountain.
In the end, Ming Shu entered the village.
The man took her to a simple bungalow, which showed that the family didn’t have much money.
There were many villagers gathered at the entrance, and they were discussing heatedly what was happening inside.
“Zhang Goudan has done many evil deeds. This is retribution.”
“He deserves it.”
“I wonder what kind of wicked things he has done. His aged mother was even involved in the retribution.”
“Move, move.” The man pushed those villagers away. The villagers fixed their gazes on Ming Shu and looked at her like they were looking at something rare.
She wore ordinary clothes, and her hair was tied into a bun with a wooden hairpin inserted.
However, her face was fair and looked bright and beautiful. When she just stood there, they would feel that she was not one of them.
“Zhang Goudan’s uncle is really unlucky to have such a nephew.”
“Who is that girl? She looks pretty.”
“She can’t be here to save Zhang Goudan with a wedding, can she?”
In the countryside, there was a tradition called Chong Xi, which intended to save a patient’s life by giving him a wedding to counteract bad luck.
Zhang Goudan was dying and a girl appeared, so the villagers would naturally let their imaginations run wild.
However, if she really came here to Chong Xi for Zhang Goudan, the girl was truly a bit unlucky. She was such a beautiful girl. They didn’t know where Zhang Goudan’s uncle had found her.
In the room, Zhang Goudan was lying on the bed, an old woman sitting beside him. Her deep-set eyes were full of tears.
“Qiangzi, you’re here.” The woman trembled as she stretched out her hand.
Hou Qiang hurried to step forward and said, “Mom, I’ve brought someone to diagnose Goudan’s sickness.”
The old woman’s face was filled with despair. “So many people came here, but nothing happened.”
Hou Qiang sighed in his heart.
Zhang Goudan was his younger sister’s child. His younger sister and her husband left the world early, leaving Zhang Goudan to grow up with his grandmother.
Zhang Goudan had been naughty since he was a child, and when he grew up, he caused trouble more and more.
He was already in his twenties yet hadn’t found a proper job. All day long, he was wandering and bullying others in the town and the village. Behind his back, there were countless people who cursed him for being a little bastard without a mother and with no education.
Ming Shu looked over the person lying in bed. The man was extremely thin, his face ashen, his breathing extremely weak.
This man…
“Little Taoist nun, look at him. What’s going on with Goudan?” Hou Qiang comforted his old mother, then hurriedly asked Ming Shu to take a look at Zhang Goudan’s state.
“Doesn’t he know what evil things he has done?”
“What?” Hou Qiang didn’t quite understand. He rubbed his hands and said with a little bit of embarrassment, “Little Taoist nun, I received little education. If you have something to say, just say it.”
“He did…” Ming Shu’s gaze landed on the somewhat dilapidated windowsill. After a moment, she withdrew her gaze and said, “I can’t save him. If he doesn’t want to die, it’s better to just give himself up.”
Hou Qiang was at a loss when he heard this.
Ming Shu turned around and left.
“Little Taoist nun, little Taoist nun…”
Hou Qiang chased after her for a distance, but Goudan started to roar again. Hou Qiang could only turn back.
When Ming Shu returned to the Taoist temple, Yu Jiao had already returned.
She squatted under the eaves of the broken Taoist temple with her expression blank and helpless.
“Can I be alive?” She looked up at Ming Shu. She didn’t want to die. She had a loving family, a boyfriend…
She’d have a happy life.
Ming Shu sat beside her. She took out a steamed bun and began to nibble on it. After a long time, she whispered, “Dead is dead. There is no chance of having a second life.”
Ming Shu heard Yu Jiao crying bitterly.
For the next few days, Yu Jiao stayed by her parents’ side.
Because of Yu Jiao’s boyfriend, the case was submitted to the higher-ups. The higher-ups sent a task force to investigate it, and the investigation was now in full swing.
However, because it’d been too long since Yu Jiao’s death, many things were not easy to investigate.
Until Zhang Goudan turned himself in.
He admitted that he was the one who kidnapped Yu Jiao along with a few others and killed her in the end.
The police quickly arrested the suspects. What made people feel surprised was that, apart from the one who died, all of the rest of the suspects were not in good condition.
Everyone sighed at what had happened to Yu Jiao.
But there were also people who shifted the blame onto her.
These people said that it was precisely because she stayed outside and ran around that she was targeted by criminals. Then this kind of thing happened.
The families of those murderers even insulted the dead Yu Jiao, saying that she dressed like that and was obviously seducing their sons and husbands…
Ming Shu didn’t know how Yu Jiao felt when she heard this.
However, her boyfriend beat those people up angrily.
…
A few people came to Wuliang Mountain early in the morning.
Yu Jiao’s parents and boyfriend followed Yu Jiao’s instructions in their dreams to come give her money.
Because it was Ming Shu who discovered their daughter first, Yu Jiao’s parents did not find it strange when Yu Jiao asked them in a dream to thank Ming Shu.
However, this place…
It was actually a Taoist temple.
Moreover, it was a shabby Taoist temple.
Yu Jiao’s parents gave Ming Shu 100,000 yuan.
Yu Jiao’s boyfriend added another 100,000 yuan. So it was a total of 200,000 yuan.
Yu Jiao shook her head. “Now that I’ve avenged myself, I have to go where I should go.”
“He’s back,” Ming Shu suddenly said.
From the main entrance of the broken Taoist Temple, a figure was slowly walking in.
The man walked to Ming Shu and said, “You can see Jiaojiao, right? Is she here?”
Ming Shu looked sideways. Yu Jiao’s body was gradually disappearing. She shook her head at Ming Shu.
Don’t tell him.
Ming Shu smiled. “She’s not here.
“But she asked me to tell you something.”
“What?”
Ming Shu watched Yu Jiao’s figure disappear from the world completely as she said slowly, “She wanted you to take good care of her parents for her. You can’t be together in this life, but she will wait for you in the next.”
The man stood in the dilapidated Taoist temple for a long time.
When night fell, he bid farewell to Ming Shu.
Ming Shu looked at the deserted Taoist temple and thought she ought to catch a few ghosts to brighten up the place.
