Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 7

The rays of the sun are beginning to appear, and the autumn colors are gradually brightening.

The gold-plated signboard of Yanwangchoutang shone brightly against the morning sun.

As soon as the door opened, a person was carried in.The man had been in a coma, his right face was beaten purple, his body was covered with mottled blood, and most of the dark red blood was concentrated between his legs.

Widow Lin cut open the crotch soaked in thick blood with a knife, tore off the fabric sticking between her legs, she let out a piercing scream, and almost spit out her breakfast!I saw that the man's lifeline had been severed, and blood was flowing between his legs.

A white-haired old man followed closely behind the bamboo and wooden stretcher, and crawled into Hades' Hall of Sorrow.He looked at Widow Lin with tears in his eyes, he hesitated and couldn't say a word.

Although Widow Lin didn't know what happened last night, she could still make a good guess.

This old man Hao is one of the best old men in the city, and he has never done anything immoral, but his son is addicted to gambling.His son's end today must have something to do with the word "gambling".Man Chaoge couldn't find another person who could be so ruthless, only Wang Laoqian!

The last time Widow Lin saw Wang Laoqian was two years ago, probably not long after Lin Zi disappeared.Widow Lin still remembered that her daughter's last patient was a foreigner in Tsing Yi. She went to see a doctor and never came back.

Then one day, Wang Laoqian brought a group of servants to Yan Wangchou Tang to rob Lin Zi.At that time, Lin Zi had already disappeared.Wang Laoqian didn't snatch anyone, they only snatched a piece of green gouyu that Lin Zi carried with her.

Widow Lin didn't know why Wang Laoqian did this, she only knew that the Gouyu was the thing she hated the most, because it was given to her daughter by Su Ji.

Every time Lin Zi looked at the piece of Gouyu, she would always talk about Su Ji's character, saying that the reason why he was called "the second rogue in Chaoge" was because he had taught all rogues except Wang Laoqian.

Looking back now, Widow Lin felt that the facts might really be what Lin Zi said.

Since Su Ji was buried in the flames two years ago, the business of Yanwangchoutang has become more and more popular, and several wounded people like Mr. Hao's son are brought in every day.

Widow Lin's medical skills were far worse than Lin Zi's. It would be good if old man Hao's son could survive in her hands.

Hao Laozhang has only one son in seven generations.Thinking that the incense of the Hao family would be ruined for generations, he almost went blind from crying.

He also begged Mr. Su to uphold justice, but Mr. Su said that his son beat Mr. Wang first in front of Mr. Wang and beat him out with a stick.Later he heard that Wang Laoqian paid for the expansion of Su Mansion for decades.

Just when Mr. Hao called out that every day should not be answered, and that the land was not working, Widow Lin's words made it worse, and extinguished his last ray of hope:

"Old man, your copper shells are not even enough for medicine. If you want your son to live, you'd better ask Mr. Fox."

Mr. Hao is no stranger to the name "Master Fox".

Hu Fuzi is a god enshrined in the temple outside the city. That temple was originally a haunted Tongtian Temple, but now it has been renamed "Qingling Temple".

As early as two years ago, no one in Chaoge believed in Mrs. Fox, until a foreigner came to the city.This outsider claimed that he was the "Son of Good Fortune", the reincarnation of a boy of good fortune under the sect of Princess Miaoshan of the South China Sea, who could suppress the ghosts that caused evil spirits and keep Chaoge from destroying his wealth for a month.

At first no one believed it, but after a month, the big families in the city were not disturbed by ghosts.

So people began to ask Mr. Shancai for help one after another, and those who asked him for help all got their wish.Not long after, Mr. Shancai became a living god of Chaoge.

However, Mr. Shancai said that it was not himself who helped people, but the "Master Fox" who was reincarnated from the fox spirit of Qingqiu.So people tore down the stone statue of Master Tongtian and replaced it with Mr. Fox.

Nowadays, everyone in Chaoge knows that Mr. Hu will help one person solve their troubles every month.

Although this chance is very slim, but no matter how big your troubles are, as long as you are willing to donate [-]% of your entire property to Mr. Fox, even if your property is only ten stones, as long as Mr. Fox is willing to accept one piece you donated, you will be fine. You will definitely not be disappointed.

Although he knows that the chance of getting Mr. Fox's favor is very slim, Mr. Hao is desperate. Let alone take out [-]% of his property, even if he loses everything, as long as he can say this for his son, even if it takes his life, he will take it without reservation. Come out and give it a try.

The color of the sunset was getting deeper and deeper, and a biting cold wind blew from the cemetery under the platform of picking stars.A flock of crows flew over Mr. Hao's head noisily.He rushed to the Qingling Temple before dark, only to see that the ruined temple that was haunted by ghosts was now resplendent and full of incense.

As soon as Mr. Hao entered the temple gate, he saw five tall statues of gods.The Fox Master with the head of a fox is the highest statue in the center of the temple, and there are two guardian deities on both sides.

On the right are "Prince Shancai" and "Empress Fengzi"; on the left are "Fearless God of War" and "Five Grain Fairy".Just hearing the names of these five gods, Mr. Hao firmly believed that they must have great supernatural powers and boundless mana.

As the sun went down, there was still an endless stream of people seeking immortality.Walking behind Mr. Hao were two skinny wealthy businessmen, each holding an exquisite wooden box.

Coincidentally, the two wooden boxes happen to be made of the most valuable Qinan wood.Apart from Wang Laoqian, the only people Chaoge could afford to use this kind of wood were these two businessmen called "Skinless Shrimp".

Don't look at this "pair of shrimps" as thin as if they were skinned by someone, but in fact they have always skinned others.The people of Chaoge are the little shrimps that were skinned by the two.

The two peeled shrimps whose needlepoints were facing the wheat awns glanced at each other with disdain, but when they saw Mr. Hao in ragged clothes in front of them, they both smiled at each other with contempt on their faces.

Old man Hao bowed his head in shame, worshiped the five gods over and over again, and respectfully put a copper shell on the altar.He just turned to leave, but was stopped by a young man in Tsing Yi who looked about 20 years old.

Mr. Hao presumed that this strange foreigner was Mr. Shancai, so he respectfully made a big gift.

Mr. Shancai helped Mr. Hao up and asked:

"The old man hasn't spoken out about his troubles yet, why is he in such a hurry to leave?"

"If you go back to Mr. Xianren, the villain's troubles have already been told to Master Xianren in his heart."

Mr. Shancai shook his head and said:

"Master Fox is good at everything, but his ears are not very good. You have to shout loudly so that he can hear."

Mr. Hao is an honest man, and when people asked him to shout, he cried and shouted, telling the whole story of what happened to his son.

When Mr. Hao called out the name Wang Laoqian, four figures suddenly appeared behind the screen, all wearing bulky bronze fox masks.

Seeing these four people coming out, the two peeled shrimps immediately bowed their backs into a pair of shrimps, bowed down and kowtowed.Old man Hao also knelt down.Needless to say, these four are the other four gods.

One of the gods walked up to the altar, put the copper shell that Mr. Hao put on the table into his sleeve, and then retreated behind the screen with the other three gods.

Overjoyed, Mr. Hao bowed down in the direction where the four gods were leaving, and left the Qingling Temple happily.

The two peeled shrimps were dumbfounded, like two suffocated dead fish, their jaws almost fell to the ground.

Mr. Shancai asked the two rich merchants: "Have you two committed any crimes before?"

"Crime? What is the crime?" The two peeled shrimps muttered to themselves, with innocent and blank expressions on their faces.

"If you feel innocent, Mr. Fox can't do anything about those two troubles. Please leave quickly."

The two quickly changed their words, echoing again and again: "Yes! Guilty!"

Mr. Shancai smiled lightly, took out two pure gold wine cups, and placed them in front of them.

The two reached out to pick up the cup and smelled it, then frowned and put the cup back.

Mr. Shancai said: "If you two feel that you are guilty, please drink this cup of redemption drink, so as to resolve your karma."

The two hesitated for a long time, and once again mustered up the courage to pick up the cup, each swallowed, pinching their noses and gurgling down the gulp.The action was done in one go, as if it had been rehearsed beforehand, and he burped at the other party after drinking.

A strong smell wafted from their mouths, causing the two of them to vomit violently.

The entire temple echoed with the sound of the two vomiting.The two of them vomited for half an hour, vomited everything in their stomachs, and almost vomited out their intestines together.

"The filth has been spit out, and you two need to go back and sincerely repent before you can eradicate your karma."

After all, Mr. Shancai waved his hands like chasing flies, and the two exited the Qingling Temple despondently. Their staggered backs seemed to have just been peeled off. As soon as they stepped out of the threshold, they heard the door was closed heavily behind them.

Mr. Shancai inserted the bolt from the inside, and the four gods immediately took off the heavy fox mask. It was Su Ji, Huan'er, the little Taoist, and the old beggar.

Su Ji burst into a series of long laughs suddenly.Hua Tuan asked curiously:

"Brother Ji, what are you laughing at?"

"Isn't it ridiculous? That pair of stupid shrimps thought they could redeem their sins with two filthy coins. It's really that easy. Aren't the gods in the sky all rich, and don't the poor all go to the eighteenth level of hell?"

"What the hell are they drinking?"

Su Ji made a silent gesture and said:

"I can't say it now, because your father hasn't eaten yet..."

When everyone turned their heads, they saw the old beggar swallowed his saliva, rubbed his hands together, picked up the fat chicken on the altar table, and gnawed it voraciously.

Hua Tuan'er's eyes lit up, and he kicked over the tribute box in the temple, and the jewels and shell coins poured out like a waterfall.He greedily grabbed two agate bracelets and put them on his wrists, laughing wildly:

"Who would have thought that the four ghosts in Tongtian Temple have become four gods now? I never dreamed of it, how about you, Brother Ji?"

Su Ji took out a small bottle of good wine from his bosom, raised his head and drank it, coughed loudly, but replied with a contented face:

"Your brother Ji is dead! I'm Master Fox now. Brothers must be called immortals from now on. Hungry ghosts and beggars are grain immortals; counseling ghosts and Taoists are fearless gods of war; brothers in Tsing Yi are good fortune sons." Su Ji pointed out With a flower tumor, she said with a smile: "You are the empress of Fengzi."

Hua Tuan'er picked up a pure gold hairpin from the tribute pile and put it on her head, imitating a woman's coquettish manner, and said in a coquettish voice:

"Although Master's immortal title is good, it's just a bit sarcastic, which makes me a little embarrassed, Madam."

Su Ji instantly got goosebumps all over his body, kicked Huan'er's ass, and said:

"You are the only one who has a lot of things! You don't like it, but the people of Chaoge like it very much!"

The little Taoist looked up at the five gods in the temple and sighed:

"People will worship a god, but they will never worship a ghost. These seekers who burn incense and worship are flattering passers-by. They can't tell what is a god and what is a ghost. As long as the ghost has a resounding name , some people will worship them as gods. They have no faith at all.”

"Maybe most people don't." Su Ji shrugged, as if talking to himself: "But not having faith doesn't mean having no creed. It's enough for a person to live in this world. !"

Su Ji patted Mr. Shancai on the shoulder, and said: "Our four ghosts will be here today. Apart from thanking this brother in Tsing Yi for helping us think of a good idea, we also have to thank one person."

"Who?" Hua Tuaner and the little Taoist priest asked in unison.

"Wang Laoqian!"

Hua Tuoer broke a mouthful of saliva and said:
"If this fat man didn't force me to be a ghost, how could I be in the immortal class now?"

Su Ji sneered and said, "Today, Mr. Hao happened to beg us, so why don't we go back to our old business and be a ghost again, how about it?"

As soon as the words fell, Hua Tuan'er couldn't stop laughing, clapped her hands and praised:

"Okay! Just Yiji... No! Just do what Mr. Fox says!"
