"Ma Chang, I know what you mean, but please stop arguing first and let me finish."
Listening to Yue Guanchao's words, Old Yu and Ma Chang became quiet, wanting to hear what he was thinking.
Yue Guanchao looked at Old Man Yu and said, "This Dragon Temple has been unbuilt for many years. It really needs to be repaired and repaired. Even if it is not a major repair, the leaks and tiles must be repaired so that you can live more comfortably."
"Another one, I also have some selfish motives." After Yue Guanchao finished speaking, he scratched his head in embarrassment: "I want to expand a cemetery in Jiaolong Temple for worship."
"A memorial ceremony at the cemetery? Who are you praying for~"
Old Man Yu already had the answer in his mind, but he still had to say it himself from Yue Guanchao before he knew it.
Yue Guanchao looked in the direction of the black forest: "Under the black forest, there are countless boys tied up. They have been sacrificed by Da Yinzun for thousands of years. They should not suffer anymore. I want to dig out all their bones and relocate them." Going to the cemetery can help them return to their roots and be reincarnated as soon as possible."
"As for the sacrificial cave, it will be completely filled in after all the catfish are killed, so as not to harm other people."
The old man Yu pondered the meaning of his words, nodded with admiration and said: "Young students, you can be considered a kind person if you have such thoughts. I think it is feasible. After the cemetery is completed, I can guard these for you." This cemetery is more convenient for adding incense and paying homage."
Yue and Song thought that Yu Bo was jealous of these dead babies and would not agree to build a cemetery here. With the old man's permission, the rest of the matter would be much easier to handle.
Taking advantage of their absence from the mountain for the past few days, Geda found a few hunters who were friends with him in the nearby Huangwei village, and moved all the infant corpses in the sacrificial cave to the ground using the holes they dug a few days ago. , and also designated a cemetery in the empty forest behind the Jiaolong Temple to bury them one by one.
After doing all this, everyone looked in front of them. The bushes in front of them completely disappeared, replaced by nearly 600 tombs of various sizes, surrounding the river bank like stars over the moon.
Yue Guanchao put down his shovel and put his hands on his hips to look at the grave bag: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, finally we finished it before we leave. All that's left is to build the temple and build the ancestral hall."
Yu Bo looked at the many tombs and nodded to Yue Guanchao: "Don't worry, I will definitely set up a temple to pray for these dolls. It's just that it will take three or four months to build the temple at least. Don’t be impatient.”
Yue Guanchao turned to the old man, cupped his hands and thanked him: "Uncle Yu, this matter will probably be done after we leave, so we need you to worry more about us."
"I'm not the only one who has to worry about it, Ma Chang will also keep an eye on it for you~"
"Ma Chang?"
Yue Guanchao looked behind him. He knew clearly what the old man Yu meant, and he quickly asked Ma Chang:
"Brother, you really don't want to go home?"
Although it was Chao Wenshun who suspected them last time, Ma Chang just said that he wanted to return to the capital. What he blurted out was often his true thoughts. Yue Guanchao thought that if Ma Chang really wanted to go back, he would just give him his reward. go out.
At this moment, Ma Chang suddenly said he couldn't leave, but caught him off guard, making him wonder what the poor boy's idea was.
"Hmm~"
Ma Jian saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him, his eyes were firm and he nodded in acquiescence, which was regarded as agreeing with Yu Bo's words.
"My dear friend, I really want to go back to find my parents, but this idea disappeared in the blink of an eye. Not to mention that I was only three or four years old when I was taken out, and I don't even remember what they looked like. Even if I find them, I won't be able to find them." What can I do? It's just that we are strangers, and I might even complain. They let me go because they couldn't survive. After more than ten years, they may still be there."
"I thought about it for a few nights, and I feel comfortable coming here on my own. There are usually no people in Yubo's Jiaolong Temple, so I just happen to be his companion. When the time comes, I can just go down the mountain to explore the world, and I don't have much else to do right now. It’s time to help Mr. Yu take care of the situation and get your affairs sorted out first.”
Ma Chang spoke sincerely, and Yue Guanchao knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had no choice but to agree to his idea: "Then I have to thank Brother Ma very much. Since we have saved each other's lives, let's not mention our benefactor again. Stop calling me old."
"That's it, if we meet again in Jianghu in the future, we will call him brother-in-law."
After Ma Chang cupped his hands and clasped his fists, everyone burst into laughter, and the cold sadness of the dead bones in the cemetery was diluted a lot.
After the cemetery work was over, preparations for the Chao family's thank-you banquet were already underway. Yue Guanchao and others hurried down the mountain, braving the cold winter wind, to go to the Chao family's banquet.
The banquet was full of delicacies, and there was a lot of people drinking and drinking. The thanksgiving banquet of the imperial family was held as the old lady Chao recovered, so it was naturally grand and prosperous, comparable to the birthday party that day.
However, a thank-you banquet like this, no matter how many people greeted it with smiles, was just a joke and pretense. After finishing the meal, Yue Guanchao couldn't remember who was who at all. He only saw a warm face that said something that didn't mean it. He was embarrassed for a long time. , the banquet finally ended.
Now, he just wants to return to Fengtian as soon as possible!
