I am doing meritorious deeds in Liaozhai

Chapter 369 Robbery from the Rich and Giving to the Poor

Mrs. Zhou breathed a sigh of relief visibly: "I won't dare to deceive the immortal master!"

Song Yushan took her to Yunlong Village again.

The people in the village had not dispersed. They were all still gathered together, looking at Dustpan Mountain in the distance, feeling a little worried.

"Old Mrs. Zhou won't secretly complain to the immortal master that we bullied her, an old woman!"

"It's a pity that Mrs. Zhou is the only one in the village who still remembers the stone dog! We can't even talk to this immortal master!"

"What if the Immortal Master listens to her slander and it will be detrimental to us?"

"You are not afraid of shadows. She was the one who stole the things. It's good that we didn't drive her out of the village!"

"Emissary Dongcang is clearly a demon! Mrs. Zhou is in league with the demon. Even if the Immortal Master knew about it, he would not stand by her!"

……

"Look! It's back!"

A cloud flew quickly from Dustpan Mountain. It was really the immortal master who had returned.

Everyone suddenly fell silent and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Song Yushan landed in the village again and saw the uneasiness of the villagers: "Can you tell me about the Dongcang envoy?"

The villagers' hearts moved. As expected, Mrs. Zhou told the immortal master about the Dongcang envoy!

Someone immediately spoke:

"Master Immortal doesn't know something. It's really not that we bullied an old lady, Mrs. Zhou. She couldn't survive in the past, and we all helped her!

That Dongcang messenger is a demon! Still a monster who only steals things!

Mrs. Zhou associates with monsters and lets them cause mischief! "

Song Yushan glanced at the silent Mrs. Zhou and said to the villagers: "I know all this. Mrs. Zhou has told me everything."

The villagers were startled: "What did she say?"

Could it be that Mrs. Zhou didn't complain to the immortal master, but surrendered to the immortal master?

The villagers' expressions softened a bit.

"It's not that we can't get along with an old man like Mrs. Zhou, it's that we feel that the demon can't stay."

Song Yushan nodded slightly.

Old Mrs. Zhou and the old mason are equally old and helpless, but Old Mrs. Zhou is much luckier than the old mason.

At the time of the old stonemason, things in the hut were always stolen, and no one took pity on him.

Mrs. Zhou was able to make a living by begging in this village before.

It can be seen that the folk customs of Yunlong Village have become much simpler over the past few decades.

It may also have something to do with the fact that the village is a little wealthier than before.

Song Yushan didn't think there was anything wrong with the villagers, and said to them: "What other grievances do you have? Let's talk about it together. Only when I know the whole story can I make a judgment."

As soon as these words came out, the villagers felt reassured and had a clear conscience, so they talked about the whole story.

What the villagers said was almost the same as what Mrs. Zhou said.

After listening to this, Song Yushan could basically confirm that neither party was lying.

She knew something in her mind and looked at Zhou Laodai: "Take me to see the Dongcang envoy!"

Mrs. Zhou nodded slightly: "Master Immortal, please come with me!"

She only had a few days to live, and this was her last chance. She had to choose to believe in this immortal master with a demon by his side.

Song Yushan followed Mrs. Zhou outside a semi-abandoned old house.

The villagers also followed, thinking that Song Yushan was planning to get rid of the demon.

The immortal master from Yunlong Mountain has not arrived yet, so it is a good thing to have an immortal master to help in advance.

"This is my residence, and the envoy is here." Mrs. Zhou led them into the house.

You can see the outline of a small house at a glance. It can be described as a house with only four walls.

There is indeed something evil in the house. As soon as Song Yushan and Jin Da came in, they looked at the wall where the bed was.

Song Yushan used his spiritual sense to see more clearly. There was a big hole in the wall behind the bed, and the owner of the evil spirit was in the hole.

"Come out!" Song Yushan said to that place.

"Rust!"

A voice came from behind the bed.

The villagers, including Mrs. Zhou, all looked at that place.

The bed shook slightly, and a huge white-haired mouse walked out like a human.

The way he walks is quite elegant.

"Rat demon!" The villagers were startled.

The white-haired rat demon twitched his beard and said from the bottom of his heart, "How rude!"

If there wasn't a noble person in front of him, he would have to teach these rude people a lesson!

He tried his best to ignore these people and bowed his head to Song Yushan and Jin Da:

"I have been cultivating for more than a hundred years as an envoy in Xiadongcang. I have taken it as my duty to eliminate evil and promote good, and to rob the rich and help the poor. I have never done a single evil thing!

Not long ago, I was sued by the stupid people of this village and went to Yunlong Mountain. I feared that my life would not be long.

I ask the immortal master and seniors to save my life because I have done no wrong! "

"No fault? Not necessarily!" Song Yushan asked back.

The white-haired rat demon was startled, with a look of despair on his face: "It seems that God is going to kill me! I thought that you, Immortal Master, were not a pedantic person who was prejudiced against demons and could understand my approach. I didn't expect that you Just like those people!”

Mrs. Zhou did not expect such a result, and subconsciously wanted to intercede for the Dongcang envoy.

Jinda shook his head at her.

Song Yushan said to the rat demon: "I really have no prejudice against demons, but you are wrong if you are wrong."

"What's wrong with me?" the white-haired rat demon asked.

"It's wrong for you to steal other people's things!" Song Yushan said.

The white-haired mouse said confidently: "I didn't use any of the things I stole for myself, but gave them all to Mrs. Zhou who was living in poverty.

And I stole from people whose families had more than enough wealth!

They just stole some things that were dispensable to them.

There is endless food to eat, endless money to spend, and clothes that have never been worn in the bottom of the box. Without these things, their lives will not be affected.

But Mrs. Zhou needs these things to survive!

I am clearly robbing the rich and giving to the poor, doing good deeds. What is wrong with that? "

Song Yushan shook his head:

“Your intention to do good is good, but your method of doing it is wrong.

No matter whose things you take, no matter whether they are important to others or not, they belong to others.

If you take it without asking, you are stealing!

Mrs. Zhou is certainly pitiful, but what mistakes did those people who stole from you make to have their things stolen by you? "

"That's right! What's wrong with us!" The villagers felt that someone was backing them up and shouted at the rat demon.

The white-haired rat demon vaguely felt something was wrong, but still didn't understand it and murmured:

"But they don't need those things, why can't they give them to..."

“Even if it’s not used, it belongs to someone else.

Being rich is not a sin, and being poor is not a reason to steal.

The rich do not have to help the poor.

Moreover, their wealth is either earned through their own efforts or accumulated over generations, and they have the power to control their wealth.

Even if it is not used, it is still their wealth, and others do not decide who it should be given to.

Even if they are as rich as the country and are unwilling to use their wealth to give to the poor, others have no right to question it, because it is their own thing and they have the power to control it. "
