What happened after that is all known.
It was simply that Bu Guo saw the two of them going behind the pool. After waiting for a while and finding that they did not come out, he was ready to see if there was anything valuable among the things on the ground.
As a result, she actually found the beast core after searching for it!
…
"Here you go." Bu Guo gave an overview of the matter, and then reluctantly took out a green, bead-like thing from his package... This was the beast core.
In the process of taking the animal core, she didn't know whether it was because Bu Guo's hand was not steady, or because she was too nervous and stood for too long, so her legs were a little numb. As soon as she moved, the package in her hand became numb. He didn't hold it firmly and fell straight down.
"No!" Bu Guo hurriedly tried to catch the package. In a panic, the beast core also fell to the ground. After making a crisp sound, it rolled on the ground a few times and then stopped. .
Su You was originally going to take the beast core, but after seeing this, she chose to help Bu Guo catch the package first.
Because the package suddenly fell, Bu Guo was so frightened that sweat broke out on her forehead. When she saw Su You reaching out to catch it, she only had time to say "thank you" quickly, and then took it from Su You's hand. I 'snatched' my package back.
Su You was not angry when he saw this, but lowered his head and started looking for the beast core that had just fallen on the ground.
After she found the beast's core in a corner, she turned around and saw Bu Guo breathing a sigh of relief and then starting to sort out the package.
Perhaps he was a little frightened, so Bu Guo's hands were trembling when he closed the package again, so that he couldn't repack the package for a long time, so Su You could clearly see the contents inside -
It was an off-white ceramic jar.
Based on what Bu Guo just said, Su You suspected that it should be the ashes of the old lady who took her in.
Ceramic jars cannot withstand being dropped, and they also have special meanings. No wonder Bu Guo was so nervous just now.
The 'soul burying' that Bugo just mentioned is actually a ritual often performed by churches. It is said that holding this ritual can not only allow the deceased to rest in peace, but also provide a good pregnancy in the next life.
Although Bu Guo is a little liar, if she could survive without stealing or robbing, how could she become the liar she is now?
Just from the fact that she was willing to take care of the old man who took her in, and carried the ceramic jar with her for two years, and even now she was thinking of paying someone from the church to bury the old man's soul, Bu Guo's character far surpassed that of many of her peers.
…
After Bu Guo packed her things again, she stood up holding the package and looked at Su You quietly.
Perhaps it was because Su You had saved the ceramic jar with her help just now, so although Bu Guo was certainly not close to her now, he was much more friendly because he was a little more grateful.
"I really didn't lie to you this time. I have given you all the things I brought." Bu Guo's eyes were actually a little red, but this was not because of crying, but because of anxiety.
Seeing her thin body, holding such a big package, and her slightly red eyes, Su You felt that this child was really pitiful.
Because it’s so real…
"Well, I believe you."
To say 'believe' to a person who is used to lying, although Su You said this because she knew that she really didn't lie this time, and Bu Guo also knew that she didn't lie, she still had a feeling in her heart. Strange feeling.
Bu Guo grabbed his package tightly, suppressed his inner emotions, and then continued: "Then, can I go?"
She made an appointment with the priest to bury her grandmother's soul in three days, but she had to save enough money within these three days, otherwise the priest would not help her.
And now it's been two days...tomorrow is the last day.
It was originally difficult for her to save money. Even though she has developed some skills with words, this is not a serious way after all, so she still hasn't been able to save enough money.
She was really happy when she saw the beast core. Although she didn't know the exact value of the beast core, the person who took out the beast core said that with this thing, she could even buy a house in a small city. Come to think of it, It should be worth a lot of money, at least enough to cover the cost of the ceremony.
But now it was all in vain, and she wasted so much time here... In short, Bu Guo didn't want to stay here any longer.
Although Su You didn't know her arrangement, she definitely didn't want Bu Guo to leave.
Or it was an NPC that was more difficult to recruit than Meike... With just the thought of leaving, it would be difficult for her to keep him.
Unless she can find the 'weakness' that leaves her, similar to the weakness that Duoya needs dragon-marked bones.
Su You began to quickly recall the conversation she had just had with Bu Guo, and she didn't know what she thought of. Her eyes once again glanced at Bu Guo's package.
"Of course it's okay if you want to leave, but you must do something for me first as compensation for stealing something."
Bu Guo was currently thinking about how he could quickly save the remaining money for soul burial. He never thought that Su You was still unwilling to let him go.
Because time was urgent, Bu Guo's mentality had also undergone some changes at this time.
In his unstable state of mind, Bu Guo couldn't make a good disguise. Even when he lied, he didn't have enough acting skills.
"Not now, I need to save money. The priest said that I must give him the money tomorrow." Bu Guo was worried that Su You would not let her go because she didn't believe in him, so he made a serious promise to Su You. Said she would definitely come back then.
Although Bu Guo liked to lie, he still kept his promise in some respects. At least Su You knew that what she said this time was mostly true.
But she didn't lie, but someone else did.
"As far as I know, the soul burial ceremony is held by the bishop. Ordinary priests do not have this right, let alone the ability." The soul burial ceremony really exists, but whether it can achieve the legendary effect, Su You doesn't know. clear.
But she just remembered that Bu Guo said that the person who agreed to help her was just an ordinary priest, and as Su You said, only the bishop had the right and ability to hold this ceremony.
In other words, what Su You wanted to express was that Bu Guo was deceived.
How could an ordinary priest have the ability to help the bishop make decisions?
So it was probably the priest who saw that Bu Guo was an easy child to deceive, so he took advantage of her wanting to bury the soul of the old woman to defraud Bu Guo of money.
