Chapter 702: Auntie, You Really Have Good Judgment!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Kongjue had a gentle disposition and his movements were serious and careful.
Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly. “Monk older brother, you’re the best. You especially resemble my biological older brother.”
Kongjue paused.
He looked away in a panic.
He didn’t forget to smile perfunctorily. “Your biological brother will definitely do better than me.”
Gu Nuo’er shook her head. “My brothers and you all do very well. You guys are especially good at taking care of Nuo’er!”
Kongjue didn’t dare to answer anymore because he was hiding the truth from the child. He was even too embarra.s.sed to look into her clear eyes.
He asked the child to take the handkerchief while he filled the remaining bucket with water.
At this moment, the woman’s son, the little boy, also ran out with a bowl.
“I’ll help the master and older sister too!”
He said in a childish voice, holding two small bowls in his hands.
Gu Nuo’er instructed him like an adult, “No, you’re still a child. This well is very deep. If you fall in, no one will be able to save you!”
Kongjue couldn’t help but chuckle.
She was clearly still a child herself.
Kongjue helped the woman pour water into the vat and even scooped a bowl for Gu Nuo’er.
The child held it in her two small hands and finished it.
“Phew- It’s really sweet-”
She praised herself in her heart again.
The water that had gone through Nuo’er’s was sweet!
The woman was a very gentle woman. When she saw that Gu Nuo’er’s hair had loosened a little, she called her to the side and tidied her hair.
“Young Miss is really good-looking, as exquisite as a snow doll.”
Gu Nuo’er narrowed her eyes and smiled, revealing her white teeth. “Auntie, you really have good judgment!”
Kongjue sat at the side and drank water. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh.
The child didn’t stand on ceremony.
The woman sighed. “However, if Young Miss has nothing to do later, you should leave with Master Kongjue.
“Too many people have died in our place. There are people infected with the plague everywhere. It’s really dangerous.
“Master Kongjue has also been here for three to four days and has helped so many of us. You’ve already done your best, but don’t lose your life because of this. You should leave before it gets dark.”
Gu Nuo’er blinked her watery eyes and asked, “But Auntie, what are you going to do if we leave?”
The woman smiled bitterly for a moment. “My husband is buried in the back of the mountain. I have to watch over him. The child is still young and can’t travel long distances with me. We won’t be able to leave.”
Gu Nuo’er could hear the despair in her words.
Her voice was soft as she comforted her. “Don’t worry, Auntie. The imperial court has already sent troops to save you. Everyone will be fine soon!”
“I hope so.” The woman sighed.
She combed Gu Nuo’er’s hair neatly.
Her small braid hung behind her head, and her soft and fair face looked very energetic.
After Kongjue finished drinking the water, he still wanted to send Gu Nuo’er out.
However, before that, he had to go to the village chief’s house and take back the staff that he had temporarily left with the village chief.
In order to make it easier for him to exorcize souls these few days, he couldn’t care less.
Often, when he came across corpses, he would put his palms together and start chanting sutras.
The staff became a burden instead.
When Gu Nuo’er saw that Kongjue was about to go out, she volunteered, “I’ll go too!”
Kongjue knew that even if he refused, the child wouldn’t listen. He could only instruct, “You have to cover up with the handkerchief well.” Gu Nuo’er quickly obediently covered her nose with a handkerchief.
After the two of them left, the woman didn’t forget to remind them,
“Remember to avoid the old paG.o.da tree in the village. Over there… almost everyone is dead.”
Kongjue’s expression was solemn as he nodded. “Benefactor, don’t worry. I understand..”
