Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Chapter 298: The Story of Huineng

Firstly, Luo Xiaoran regarded Huineng as the enemy who killed Niu Dan and Li Heng. Even if what Huineng said was true and there was a hidden story, he was also the murderer of Li Heng and the one who destroyed Niu Dan's body. Luo Xiaoran would only resent and hate him.

Secondly, perhaps Huineng discovered that Luo Xiaoran was also a person who possessed a dead body and showed great interest in her, so he sent people to keep an eye on her a long time ago. This also indirectly reflects that in Huineng's eyes, Luo Xiaoran was just a surveillance object, and there was no deep friendship between the two.

Luo Xiaoran is so unique. Now that I think about it, Huineng also has this uniqueness, but he rarely shows it.

Is this the abnormality of people who have been resurrected by borrowing a corpse?

The relaxed expression on Huineng's face paused, and he looked at Chen Ji with some heartache.

Poor child, his three views have just been shattered, and now he is about to get to know the truth about his mother's death.

"Xiao Ji'er, aren't you curious as to why your mother was executed for the crime of 'resurrecting a corpse'?

Although the royal family also likes to worship the heavens, the earth, and their ancestors and believe in gods, Buddhas, and immortals, don't you think the crime of "reincarnation" is too abrupt?

"If someone wants to harm your mother, what methods can't be used? What crime can't be charged? Why did they have to use 'resurrection'?"

As Huineng asked one question after another, something that had been bothering Chen Ji for a long time suddenly seemed to have found the answer, and everything became clear.

Before, he firmly believed that there was no such thing as reincarnation in the world, and that his mother's death was entirely caused by Queen Lin's jealousy.

Now, there are two resurrected people around him...

"If my mother is really a person who has resurrected from a dead body, then there are two possibilities for her death:

First, my mother herself revealed the matter of resurrection to outsiders, and was taken advantage of by a villain, who harmed her.

Second, behind the whole thing, there is one or more people who have resurrected from a dead body. He or they, just like you discovered Xiao Ran, discovered that my mother was also a resurrected person, and then joined forces with the Lin family to harm my mother. "

"If your mother is not a resurrected person, then there must be a real resurrected person who put this crime on your mother's head.

Not only did he offer advice to the Lin family to gain benefits, but he also let himself see what would happen if the resurrection happened! "

Huineng continued Chen Ji's words. Suddenly, a strange expression appeared on his face. He stared at Chen Ji in the dark and asked cautiously:

"If your mother, Concubine Yun, is really a resurrected spirit, then the crime the Lin family has accused her of is true. Is the spirit possessed by Concubine Yun still your mother?"

"Of course not!" Chen Ji replied without hesitation.

"But according to what you said, both parties must be dead to revive. The fact that the ghost was able to possess my mother means that she had been killed before. I still want to avenge her!"

Huineng fell silent, and the Zen room suddenly became quiet because of his silence.

A long time passed, so long that Luo Xiaoran thought Huineng had fallen asleep.

But in fact, Luo Xiaoran, who has night vision, clearly saw that Huineng had been staring at Chen Ji during this period of time, as if he was looking at another person through him.

Huineng's expression was very sad, as if everything in the world had abandoned him and left him in a place full of despair.

Chen Ji could also see in the dark. He had never seen Huineng looking at him with such a sad expression. For a moment, he was at a loss.

Luo Xiaoran felt that she had to say something to break this strange atmosphere.

Luo Xiaoran heard from Zhu Jingxing that Chen Ji's mother, Concubine Yun, was Emperor Taizong's concubine, but she didn't know when Concubine Yun was killed.

"I wonder how long it has been since your mother passed away?"

Chen Ji forced himself to look away from Huineng's gaze. He took a deep breath and replied, "Twenty years."

Luo Xiaoran's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, the time is right! Isn't it a coincidence?

"It is said that Master Huineng was a very famous monk in his early years. After returning from his travels more than 20 years ago, he became mysterious and often said things that others could not understand.

Huineng, you came through at that time, right?

You just said that when you traveled through time, Huineng was on his way to Kyoto. Did you go to Kyoto later?

You are the one who let the Lin family know about the resurrection of the dead and used it to kill the mother of His Royal Highness Prince Yan, right? "

Hearing Luo Xiaoran's question, Huineng's desolation disappeared completely and he couldn't help laughing so hard that his beard trembled.

He stretched out his finger and tapped the air, as if he was tapping Luo Xiaoran's forehead.

"Luo Xiaoran, ah Luo Xiaoran, you really want to catch my little braid, I won't do such a thing, why do you think so bad of me?"

"I just have a reasonable suspicion. After all, apart from your Highness's mother, it is rare for us two to be outliers in this world.

And I'm only fourteen years old, it can't be me, then it's most likely you!"

"Who said we are the only two time travelers?" Huineng smiled brightly, and in the shock of Luo Xiaoran's face, he slowly uttered eight words:

"There is one more, as far as I know."

"Who is it?" Luo Xiaoran and Chen Ji asked in unison.

Huineng's eyes jumped between the two of them, as if he wanted to keep the secret.

Somehow, Luo Xiaoran saw a kind of firmness in Huineng's eyes, an inappropriate firmness.

"Let me tell you a story!"

Huineng did not respond directly to their questions, nor did he ask for their consent. He just started talking on his own.

“Before I traveled through time, I was just an ordinary person, with an ordinary face, doing an ordinary job, and earning a low salary.

During that time, I was very tired from work, so I planned to take advantage of the holiday to go on a self-driving tour to relax.

Who would have thought that they would be so unlucky as to encounter a mudslide, and both the people and the car would be swept off the cliff.

When I woke up again, I had become Huineng who was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, well, another unlucky guy.

At that time, I didn't realize that I had traveled through time. I was just cursing who shaved off my handsome hair and changed my clothes into monk's robes.

But when I walked around and found that this was a deserted place with no traces of artificial carving, I panicked.

Just then, I discovered a big river. Looking at the strange face in the river, I knew that I might have traveled through time.

Otherwise, who can explain to me this completely different face of mine? Even my height has increased.

I was so upset that I couldn't even cry. I couldn't believe that something that only existed in novels could actually happen to me!"
