Chapter 688 Worship

Because it was just past the New Year, the mound was still adorned with a scroll of Buddhist sutras and burnt yellow paper, clearly the work of the monastery's monks.

Whereas many of the surrounding graves were left cold and empty without anything in front of them.

Such stark contrast likely came from Song Hong's instructions.

The Reception Monk led people to the place and, to avoid suspicion, took his leave.

In silence, the two of them knelt before the grave, setting up rice, meat, and a few kinds of fruit.

They then inserted incense sticks and kowtowed nine times with loud thumps before Song Chongjin said, "Mother, your unfilial son has brought his wife to see you! These years, you must have suffered down below! Now that your son knows of your resting place, he will surely not let you suffer any longer!"
