Chapter 27 Chapter Twenty Seven

"So they all gathered here?" His voice was hoarse like the rustling of paper rubbing against each other, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.Sun Bingwei had a smile on his face, and there were conspicuous shadows under his eyes. The shadows were like some kind of creature wriggling on his face, making all kinds of evil shapes. His face wriggled wildly. Then, everyone in the houseboat also ran in. "Aling!" Taiichiro yelled, he seemed to have just come back from outside, "Hey, what do you want to do? Suddenly broke in..." Taiichiro roared and grabbed Sun Heingwei's shoulder.Abba is very powerful, and Sun Bingwei, who is as thin as a dead wood, is unlikely to be able to defeat Abba.However, Son Heiwei shook his shoulder casually as if he was about to shake off the petals that fell on his shoulder, and easily threw Taiichiro into the corridor.

"Abba!" Sun Bingwei stepped into the room leisurely, outside the small circle formed by Gennosuke and other ghosts around Ah Ling and Ge Geweisheng as the center, circled half a circle like a prank, and finally stood with his back to the latticed paper window.Ah Ling thought to herself, ah, the other party is indeed a ghost. Although Sun Bingwei's body was stolen, the strange coldness on his body is indeed something that a ghost can have, and the ghost in front of him is not like Xuanzhisuke and Ami. A warm smile that can melt the cold. Shichihei, Taiichiro, Axian and Duohui ran into the room one after another.In a blink of an eye, not only all the ghosts, but also Ah Ling's family members closely surround Ah Ling and Wei Weisheng.

Ateng was too scared to get up on the threshold. She didn't know what happened, but her face was extremely pale. "It took me a long time to come here." The monster said with Sun Bingwei's face and Sun Bingwei's voice, "I knew you were here a long time ago, but it took longer than expected. It's time to see you." "Mr. Landlord," Weird Sheng called out dreamily, "so you are not the landlord?" "I'm sorry, brat," Sun Bingwei wrinkled his face with a hideous smile, "Your landlord is no longer here. It took me a long time to drive him away. Even if that guy is an old man, it's still very difficult." Handle."

Ah Ling breathed evenly, she didn't want her voice to sound trembling.She wanted to throw the question sharply like an arrow. "Are you the abbot of Xingyuan Temple?" Sun Bingwei looked at Ah Ling, and under his gaze, Ah Ling's hair stood on end.Something was indeed wriggling in the depths of the empty eye sockets. "I know everything!" Ah Ling said loudly, "What are you doing back in the Yang world? What are you doing here! Give us back the body of Landlord Sun Bingwei!" Sun Bingwei——no, the abbot of Xingyuan Temple laughed loudly with his hands on his hips.

"What a courageous little girl, no wonder she wasn't intimidated by Ah Mui." Ah Mui?By the way, there is also Amei. "Where is Amei? Where did you catch that child?" "I didn't catch her. She's probably nearby. I can't do anything to her now." Xuanzhisuke kept squinting his eyes and glaring at Sun Bingwei as if he was sizing up the other party. He slowly got up and said, "That night... I cut you off." Ah Ling looked up at Gennosuke in surprise.Taiichiro and Duohui quickly hugged Ah Ling. "No, it's okay, Dad, Mom. You may not see it. The ghosts who are close to me are all here, don't worry!"

Taiichiro and Shichihei were wondering if Ah Ling was crazy again, and retracted nervously; but Duo Hui and Ah Xian reacted quite differently. "So it's like this!" Duo Hui said loudly; Ah Xian clapped his hands to express his understanding. "Is it the same as before, Ah Ling?" "Ok!" Gennosuke quickly stood up and said to Sun Bingwei, "I remembered..." His voice was low, without any trace of confusion or fear. "I didn't fail, I did kill you, you died that night thirty years ago, didn't you?" Sun Bingwei tilted his mouth, he was laughing at Xuanzhisuke: "You forgot? It's really useless."

"I cut you..." "Yes, you cut me. My body dies, but my spirit remains, just like yours." "The massager and I," Ami put her hand on the shoulder of the smiling monk, and asked, "were you killed?" "You also forgot?" "Maybe it's too scary to forget. Laughing Monk, isn't it?" The laughing monk shook his head sadly. "Until a few days ago, there was another ghost here." Gennosuke said, "It was the man you used as a murder tool, do you remember? That man was also killed by me thirty years ago." Sun Bingwei blinked his empty eyes for a moment, and then his eyes shone.

"Oh, the madman? He was a murderer before he came to me." "I also said the same. However, he met the people in the boat house here, and he deeply repented of the sins he committed, and now he has gone to the Western Pure Land without any worries." "Pure Land?" Sun Bingwei—no, the soul of the abbot of Xingyuan Temple borrowed Sun Bingwei's voice and said disdainfully, "You mean Pure Land?" The monster resolutely denied: "There is no such place." The light in both eyes seemed to burst out from the monster's body. "The Pure Land doesn't exist at all, because gods and Buddhas don't exist at all. What Buddhism says is all nonsense."

"But, you are obviously a monk!" Ah Ling couldn't help shouting.The monster waved its hands. "It is precisely because I am a monk that I know, and I can see through the deceit of the 'God and Buddha' that deceives all living beings!" "How is it possible..." Qibingwei moaned, "What's going on? Ah Ling, who is this man?" Ah Ling didn't care to answer Qibei, she was trying her best to block the strong malice from the abbot's soul. "Gods and Buddhas don't exist, they don't exist anywhere, I've confirmed it. I've killed many people, I've confirmed it with their blood. Cut people, stab people, hang people, burn people, chop their bones and throw them away Every time, I would ask questions, loudly. Gods and Buddhas, do you exist? If you are, please show up immediately and give me an appropriate punishment. However, Gods and Buddhas have never appeared, no matter how much you call them. So I Just keep on killing, keep calling, until your voice is hoarse!"

Atou screamed out of his wits, curled up with his head in his arms; Shichibei and Taiichiro were also frozen and unable to move.Ah Xian and Duo Hui held Ah Ling and Wei Wei Sheng tightly in their arms. "To kill someone for such a thing..." Ami hadn't finished speaking when a call came from behind that overwhelmed Ami's voice. "Abba." It's Amei.Little Amei looked directly at the abbot. "Abba." Amei called again, moved her little feet into the room, and approached Sun Bingwei without hesitation. "Amei is... the abbot's child..." Ami muttered to herself in a daze, she looked at Amei's back, and staggered unsteadily, "Ah, that's how it is...that's why you are here ..."

Ah Mei tightly clenched her fists with her small hands, and looked up at Sun Bingwei without flinching.And Sun Bingwei—the abbot who borrowed Sun Bingwei's body smiled slightly on his thin face. "I am a person who serves gods and Buddhas, and I have no children." He said decisively, "No, I don't need children." "No need? But you are her father?" Sun Bingwei looked at Amei and answered Xuanzhisuke: "This child was born to a woman of unknown origin who broke into the temple by mistake. She insisted that Amei is my child. Since it is my child, I decided to use her to help me Looking for gods and Buddhas." "So you killed her, the child with your own hands?" Sun Bingwei squatted down slowly and brought his face closer to Amei.He seemed to be looking for a grain of millet in the sand, looking straight into Amei's eyes, looking for what was in Amei's eyes. "Amei," he called, "have you seen the gods and Buddhas? Have the gods and Buddhas heard your lament at the bottom of the well and appeared?" Ah Mui was indifferent and couldn't take his eyes off her. "Tell me, Amei, have you met the gods and Buddhas?" the abbot asked again, "Have the gods and Buddhas heard the cry for help from the young girl who died unexpectedly?" Amei moved her lips and made a sound: "I obviously called Abba." The abbot got up and left Amei. "I obviously called Abba, but where is Abba?" Amei continued, "I have been looking for Abba, where are you, Abba? Where are you hiding and plug your ears and cover your eyes?" Amei shook her head slowly and sighed.Ah Ling stared at Ah Mei's small back, and couldn't help but tremble all over.A child killed by a father is killed and thrown into a well.The moon waxed and waned overhead, and the icy water washed over his body and bones, and all the while the child kept calling for his father. "Abba is looking for gods and Buddhas?" Amei waved her fist and shouted, "Gods and Buddhas are always here, over there, here, everywhere. You are the one who is not there!" Amei's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and the dazzling white light burst out like the first rays of sunlight at dawn, shooting sharply into the abbot's eyes. "oh oh!" The abbot covered his face with his hands, staggered and fell to the ground, Amei rushed towards him. "Amei!" Ah Ling seemed to have finally untied the binding spell on her body, and yelled loudly.The abbot struggled to get up on the tatami in front of the stunned crowd, and Ah Mei nimbly climbed onto the abbot—Sun Bingwei's scrawny body like a monkey. "what you do!" Ah Mei sat on Sun Bingwei's shoulders, clasped his head with both hands, and rode on his shoulders.Unlike ordinary children riding on their father's shoulders, Amei's thin hands tightly covered Sun Bingwei's eyes. "Come on, Dad." Ah Mui opened her bright eyes and shouted loudly. "Amei will be your eyes, and Amei will be your ears. Come on, stand up, let's go! Dad, Ahmei will show you what you can't see." "No, don't! Let go!" The abbot staggered up his knees, stood up against the wall, and staggered uncontrollably, pushed down the paper door, and rushed into the adjacent room. "Abba! Abba!" Amei twisted her body on the abbot's shoulders, her hands covering his eyes remained motionless like suction cups, and her little white feet were tightly wrapped around the abbot's neck like shackles. "Come on, you can see it. How many people died here? Abba hanged a person, drowned a person, there are also there, and there are also here. Look, you can see the bones and the hair!" The abbot staggered as if drunk, and staggered around the room upside down.When he swayed out of the corridor, Ah Mei shouted happily: "Look, Dad! There are many children here! They are all children who were starved by Dad." "Let go, let go." At this moment, the abbot's face clearly showed a panicked expression, he lost to Amei. "There are monks over there! There are also young monks!" Ah Mei seemed to see an old friend she hadn't seen for a long time, and shouted happily: "Look, Dad! Can you see it? Everyone is here. Those who were killed by Dad are waiting for Dad here." !" "Hey," Gennosuke's voice trembled slightly, "We also follow Amei." Ami and Monk Laughing moved slightly, Ami held Monk Laughing's hand, Gennosuke took the lead, and the three of them walked slowly behind the abbot who was carrying Amei on his shoulders. Ah Ling also got up quietly, and Duohui tugged on Ah Ling's sleeve.Ah Ling looked back at her mother and said, "Don't worry, Mom, let's go together." Duo Hui was staring at the abbot's back with his eyes wide open, and he came back to his senses when he heard Ah Ling's voice, and asked, "A Ling?" "Mom, hold my hand." A-Ling held her mother's hand, and wanted to stretch out the other hand to hold Taiichiro, but found the weird Katsu who was rolling his eyes and trembling. "Eccentric wins, reach out!" Ah Ling encouraged him and took his hand.Wei Weisheng blinked, came back to his senses, and trembled all over his body. "Father, hold the hand of Wei Gesheng!" Ah Ling called Taiichiro, "Let's go together, we will not be afraid if we are together, follow Ah Mei!" Encouraged by Ah Ling, Ah Xian held Qibei's hand.Shichibei, who had been terrified and paralyzed on the tatami, looked up at his wife with trembling lips. "Let's follow Ah Ling." A-Ling caught a glimpse of A-Teng laying on the ground with all blood lost, her eyes widened in a daze, and she didn't respond to calling her. "Let her stay here." Ah Xian said without looking away.So everyone held hands and chased after Amei and the abbot. Amei urged the abbot to go downstairs, and he walked all over the tatami room downstairs, the kitchen and the end of the corridor.Like a groom yelling to drive a horse, she kicked the abbot's chest with her ankle, and turned the abbot's head vigorously with her hands covering his eyes, ordering him to turn left and right.The abbot, who was struggling to move forward, screamed: "Stop, let go!" He tried his best to shake Amei off, but she changed her posture effortlessly, never let go of the abbot, and kept yelling: "There are also here, and there are also there!" When she came to the dirt floor in the kitchen, Amei turned her head to look at Ami. "Ami, you are here!" Ami pressed her mouth with her hand: "Amei..." "Here you sleep peacefully, here are your bones, buried with your comb." Amei finished singing like a song, and jumped on the abbot's shoulder.She kicked the abbot hard in the chest with her ankle, and the abbot changed direction again, this time heading for the toilet to the north. "The Laughing Monk is over there!" Ah Mei yelled, "Over the tree in the yard, it has always been there, and it is still there now, remember? Laughing Monk!" The laughing monk squatted down, trembling all over.It was a pity that Ah Ling couldn't meet Monk Xiao, couldn't put her arms around his back to comfort him.She couldn't even hold the hands that healed her, A-Ling felt a little lonely about it. She wanted so much to comfort him, to tremble with him. "Abba! Abba!" Amei looked out the door, "Go to the monastery! To Abba's monastery! We are over there! Abba, to my well!" The abbot stepped barefoot over the edge of the wooden floor, through the open door, and let Amei ride outside on his shoulders. "I've had enough!" The cry sounded, it was Wei Sheng, "That man is not Mr. Landlord, is he? But it is his body. What will happen to Mr. Landlord?" At a loss, tears burst out of his eyes and dripped on A-Ling's arms. Before Ah Ling could speak, Taiichiro grabbed Katsuki's shoulder, looked at him, and said to him, "Hey, cheer up. That's not your benefactor, Mr. Landlord, anymore. Mr. Landlord has passed away." "I am scared." "Everyone is very scared. But we are not afraid when we are together. We will protect you, and we will be by your side. Come, let's go. You have to see clearly what will happen to the evil spirit that took the landlord's body." Quirky Sheng bowed his head and cried for a while.He cried so sadly that Ah Ling's throat tightened, and she couldn't help crying loudly, but she never let go of the hand that was holding Bibi Sheng. When everyone came to the sun, Amei and the abbot had already crossed the road and stepped into the weedy fire prevention space.The abbot looked as if he was dancing to Ah Mui's singing, with his feet dancing briskly. Behind them were Gennosuke, Ami, and Monk Xiao who were as transparent as smoke, and their figures were also swaying. "I know Mr. Sun Bingwei!" Ah Mei swayed back and forth on the abbot's shoulders, and said to Wei Gesheng, "Mr. Sun Bingwei wants to stop Abba! He wants to stop Abba!" Gennosuke stopped, squinted his eyes dazzlingly, looked at the grass and muttered to himself: "Yes, I also remember. When I entered Xingyuan Temple, Sun Bingwei was also in the temple. He was imprisoned Temple chamber." "Master Xuanzhisuke!" Ah Ling said loudly, "Have you remembered? Remember that night thirty years ago?" Gennosuke, who was looking up at the sky, showed a bright smile like a clear sky. "I chased after the abbot and set fire in the temple. I hoped to burn down this filthy temple. The fire burned bigger and bigger. I ran around in the fire looking for the abbot..." As a result, Sun Bingwei was found in the living room, Gennosuke rescued him, and set off to find the abbot, and Sun Bingwei followed him. "Finally I found the abbot and hacked him to death without much effort. But then the beam was destroyed by fire and fell down." —I lost my life. Sun Bingwei escaped from the fire by luck. His feet were scalded and his hair was scorched. He escaped outside Xingyuan Temple.It didn't end there, however. "Abba has been in Mr. Sun Bingwei's body." Amei twisted her body, kicked and beat the abbot, ordered him to move on, and shouted: "Abba is attached to Mr. Sun Bingwei. He didn't go to the underworld, but escaped into Mr. Sun Bingwei's body. I know Abba Attached to the body of Mr. Sun Bingwei, but Mr. Sun Bingwei did not lose to Abba, so Abba couldn’t come out. Until Mr. Sun Bingwei lost to the age and passed away, he still couldn’t occupy Mr. Sun Bingwei’s body .” So I've been waiting! "Abba, Abba! Look, it's a well! I see the well!" Amei cheered in the grass. "That's my well! I've been there! Abba, Abba! Let's go!" "You, you..." The abbot who borrowed Sun Bingwei's body was already out of breath, his eyes were rolling in their sockets, and white foam was coming out of his mouth. "I, don't go in, the well..." "Abba, the Buddha is in the well. Look, it's over there, right there!" Needless to say, Ah Mui, Ah Ling also saw the well, and saw the mouth of the well made of stone, with the rotten tread beside it.That old mossy, dusty, forgotten well— "I've been here all the time." Amei urged the abbot, "I've seen gods and Buddhas here several times. The gods and Buddhas are here, Abba." "Stop...let me go." The abbot twisted and struggled, it was said that Amei's strength should be far inferior to the abbot, but the abbot was no match for Amei.He staggered and staggered back and forth to the edge of the well. The abbot stepped on the mouth of the well with one foot. "Amei..." After Ah Ling called out, she found herself crying. "You're leaving and I'll never see you again?" The abbot stood at the mouth of the well with his back to the crowd.Ah Mei twisted her neck on his shoulder and looked back at Ah Ling. "Ghostface!" Ah Mui stuck out her tongue and said loudly: "I hate Ah Ling the most! I hate it the most, the most, the most!" Ah Ling stood there and burst into tears. "You are an orphan but you have a father and a mother. Why do your father and mother love you so much, but my father wants to kill me and let me stay in the well?" Ah yes.Why is this happening?Why are there children who have to die at a young age?Why are there murderers in the world?Why do gods and Buddhas allow these things to exist in the world? "A-Ling, don't follow me!" A-Mei shouted hoarsely, "Because I hate you most, A-Ling, you are still alive!" Yes, Ah Ling is still alive.Thanks to the blessings of everyone, I was able to stay in this world. It has been like this until now, and it will be like this in the future. "Abba, let's go!" Amei was jumping on the abbot's shoulder.For a while, the abbot tried to stabilize his feet at the mouth of the well. "Let go, let go, I don't want to..." He uttered a cry, and his feet left the mouth of the well.The abbot rode Amei on his shoulders and fell into the well like a stone. The abbot's screams left a faint lingering sound in the air, and finally disappeared without a sound. "I died by this well." Gennosuke whispered, "I remembered, I finally remembered." "Master Xuanzhisuke..." Ah Ling called out to him tremblingly. Xuanzhisuke turned his head slowly, looked down at Ah Ling whose face was full of tears, and smiled. "A-Ling, don't cry, we finally found our way to Styx. This parting is a good thing." "But……" A Ling broke free from the hands of Duohui and Guaigesheng, and rushed to Gennosuke's side, but she couldn't touch him and couldn't hold him tightly. "We shouldn't have stayed in this world. Now that the abbot is gone, we should set off." At some point, Ah Mi came to her side, her long hair fluttering in the wind, squatting beside Ah Ling. "A-Ling, it's time to break up." Ah Ling couldn't speak, she was afraid that tears would flow out first. "Finally, I want to ask you one thing. Don't be too angry with that Ateng. But you have to make an appointment with me, and you must never become such a woman in the future." "Ok……" "Women, sometimes they go the wrong way because of the relationship between men and women. That person is a good example. Her sin is not too deep, so I can't forgive it. I have done many unforgivable things. Men have changed one by one. What are you talking about for love, for love, like a fool, always convinced that love is the most important thing for women." I did die here, and I was killed by the abbot of Xingyuan Temple—I wonder if the sun was too harsh, Ami squinted her eyes and spoke. "However, why am I here? It's strange, right? I'm not like Pengfa who can help kill people, nor is it like Ah Xuan and Sun Bingwei are here to punish that person." "Didn't you come here by force?" "No." Ami shook her head slowly and said, "I, Ah Ling, I remembered, I was the mistress of that abbot. Until he got tired of me and killed me, I was his mistress. I always Pursue the immediate desire and love, and keep doing wrong things, that is the fate of a person like me. I am the mistress of a monster, so that person's soul is still entangled in the world for a day, and I cannot go to the pure land." Now it's finally time to start... But, Ah Ling... "If you think of me in the future, remember to sing a piece of music for me." "Ami..." The laughing monk couldn't wait to stand at the mouth of the well, looking into the well and calling: "If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to keep up with Ah Mei. I don't want to get lost on Huangquan Road again." Suddenly, someone behind him called loudly: "Hey-hey-!" Everyone looked back, and it turned out to be Master Nagasaka.He ran over desperately, stopped for a while, and the hem of his clothes was messy.Xiaobai also followed and saw Ah Ling barking. "What's going on? What's wrong? What's everyone doing there?" Master Nagasaka rested his hand on the handle of the knife, and planned to run towards the crowd.At this time, he opened his eyes wide in surprise and exclaimed: "Oh, uncle? Aren't you uncle?" Xuanzhisuke's voice sounded next to Ah Ling's ear: "I'll ask you to take care of that anglerfish-faced nephew more in the future. Don't look at his virtuous appearance, he is very nice." Gennosuke called out to Nagasaka Mizusuke, "Hey, Kotaro!" In the blink of an eye, Mizusuke's face was wrinkled, and he was about to cry like a child. "Uncle, uncle..." "I'm sorry to have troubled you for so long. Your useless uncle did a good job before he died." "Uncle, I..." Mizusuke took a wobbly step forward, Gennosuke said with a smile: "However, you really got a high-quality wife, I really envy you. It is my responsibility that the Nagasaka family will decline, I'm sorry You guys. It’s just that, Kotaro, with a gentle wife by your side, even if you’re living a poor life, you’ll be very relaxed and happy.” Master Mizusuke slumped his shoulders and said with a smile on his face, "Master Uncle...you are exactly as I remember." "Well, only you are willing to miss my troublesome uncle. It's not bad to let you know that I did something good before I died." Xuan Zhisuke smiled and said, "You can ask Ah Ling about the rest." "I must go, I have delayed too long." As if mentioning it by the way, Xuanzhisuke quickly said in Ah Ling's ear: "Goodbye, Ah Ling." A-Ling was startled secretly, and turned her head to look at the well.Gennosuke's back just disappeared into the well.The laughing monk went on to say: "It is my blessing that you saved your life. If you don't take good care of your body, I will never forgive you." "Laughing Monk, Grandpa Laughing Monk..." Ah Ling couldn't help stretching out her hand and asked, "Is this okay? Are you really going to leave? Didn't you say you didn't want to go to heaven?" The laughing monk's eyeballs rolled under his closed eyelids. "Did I say that? Well, yes, I did." "Yes, that's what you said..." The laughing monk was not affected by Ah Ling's crying, and said in a cold tone as usual: "I, I once cured the abbot of Xingyuan Temple. Use my proud hands and my massage skills to cure him. " "what?" "I vaguely guessed that he was a murderer, or he was helping to cure his illness, so I often went to Xingyuan Temple." So get killed here? "I thought I could cure his brain too." The laughing monk whispered, "It's so conceited. It turned out to be self-defeating and cost me my life. People who are confident in their medical skills are sometimes overwhelmed by their own arrogance." Pulling back." He said with emotion: "I have been trapped in this world all this time because of that man's obsession. Finally, everything is over now." The laughing monk silently took a step to the side and approached the well: "It's great to be able to cure you." After speaking, he jumped into the well.Ah Ling felt a burst of cold air, and it was Ami who passed by. "Goodbye, Ah Ling." Although I have seen it many times, the smiling face in front of me is still breathtakingly beautiful. "Be a good boy, be a good girl." Ah Ling didn't have time to stop her.After the three disappeared at the mouth of the well, A-Ling yelled and tried to catch up, but tripped over the grass.She cried and got up, and when she finally raised her face, the well was no longer in sight and disappeared. "what is the problem?" Master Shuizhu rushed over and looked around the crowd with a pale face: Duohui was crying, Wei Sheng was trembling, Qibingwei and Ah Xian were slumped on the ground hugging each other. "What about the houseboat..." The houseboat stood in place as usual, its roof reflected in the water of the channel. A Ling burst into tears with a wow, and Wei Ge Sheng also cried. The grass rustled and swayed, and the fragrance of green grass came.In the clear sky overhead, Xiao Bai barked and chased the birds. At last the houseboat was empty, waiting patiently for Ah Ling's family who had wiped away their tears to come back.
