Chapter 531 - 531 Little Black Egg (1)


531 Little Black Egg (1)


At dawn, the sound of a bell came from the Gu Temple. The deep bell slowly wafted through the mountains, waking up the silent morning.


The nunnery on the other mountain also heard the bell of the Gu Temple. The nuns in the nunnery began their day’s work.


This nunnery had been abandoned a few years ago, but a few nuns had moved in a few years ago, so there was incense again. However, there were many believers in the nearby Gu Temple. In comparison, the nunnery was quite deserted.


There were only three nuns in the nunnery. An old nun, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young nun, and a middle-aged nun in her forties with an outstanding temperament and dignified appearance.

!!

There were not many pilgrims in the nunnery hall. Usually, only one or two would come in ten days to half a month. Even so, this nunnery hall was steadily opened.


When the three of them heard the bell ring, they got up and washed up. Then, they did their morning cla.s.s. After eating a few vegetarian dishes, they began to work.


It was a simple meal, accommodation, and transportation, and there was no need for too complicated labor. The old nun and the young nun did not have much to do. Only the middle-aged nun made an extra small flowerbed and planted some bright flowers and plants.


When she finished tending to the flowers, the young nun threw two wooden buckets at her feet. “It’s time to fetch water! Don’t expect me to go alone!”


The middle-aged nun did not say anything. She bent down and picked up the wooden bucket. She found a pole by the wall and carried the wooden bucket on her shoulder.


The young nun also carried two buckets and left with her.


The place to fetch water was neither far nor close. To the east of the door, there was a clear stream two miles on foot. The two of them fetched water with a wooden bucket and carried it back with a pole.


The middle-aged nun really filled most of the bucket of water. The young nun was lazy and pretended to scoop a full bucket, but after the middle-aged nun turned around, she poured most of it back into the stream.


As the middle-aged nun walked, she inadvertently turned around to look at the young nun. The young nun’s eyes flashed and she said fiercely, “What are you looking at! Go on! Don’t blame me if you fall!”


The middle-aged nun still did not say anything. She straightened her head and carried the water back to the nunnery without looking sideways.


The young nun was lazy and only filled half of it. After a while, she still found it heavy and secretly poured a little more. By the time she arrived at the nunnery, there was almost no water left in the bucket.


The young nun pretended to pour the water into the water jar. Then, she said to the middle-aged nun, “It’s all your fault. You fetched so little. How can this bit of water be enough to eat? Go and fetch two more buckets of water! I’m going to cook!”


The middle-aged nun said, “I can’t fetch so many by myself. Either you come with me or no one has water today.”


The young nun wanted to explain, but the old nun in the central room said, “What are you arguing about? Hurry up and carry the water!”


The young nun did not dare to argue. She snorted and carried the pole away. This time, she only filled half of the bucket.


However, when the two of them returned with water, they were surprised to see a child lying by the roadside.


The child was extremely dark and looked to be less than three years old. He had a fat little body and a shaved head, making him look especially like a round little black egg.


The two of them were immediately attracted by the little black egg. They had never seen such a cute little black beauty. Just one look was enough to make them unable to look away.


The two of them put down the bucket on their shoulders and walked towards the little black egg. The middle-aged nun squatted down and gently patted the little black egg’s shoulder.


The little black egg slowly “woke up”. He opened a pair of beautiful big eyes, and his black pearl-like eyes rolled around, making one’s heart melt.


From his clothes, he did not look like a child from a poor family, and there was a Gu Temple nearby. From time to time, believers and devotees would come to pay their respects. The two of them guessed that this child might also be a little devotee.


The middle-aged nun asked softly, “Little fellow, why are you lying here? Did you get separated from your family?”


The little black egg looked at her adorably.


The middle-aged nun smiled gently. “Did you come with your parents?”


The little black egg thought for a while, nodded, and shook his head.


“What do you mean?” The young nun was puzzled.


The middle-aged nun said, “You came with your father?”


The little black egg shook his head.


The middle-aged nun continued, “You came with your mother?”


The little black egg nodded.


The middle-aged nun understood and said to the young nun beside her, “He should have gotten separated from his mother.” Then, she said to the little black egg, “Follow us back to the nunnery first. We’ll send you back later.”
