EBE Chapter 255
Chapter 255
"Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai..."
A young man's voice came from among the flowers. Ni Yangzhou leaned over to take a look, and saw a young man with a fair face, a crown on his head, and earmuffs hanging from both sides. He was looking at the gold and jade in the hall with a rather sad look on his face.
"you……"
Halfway through his words, the young man turned around, narrowed his eyes, and was suddenly startled. Without saying a word, he turned around and was about to fly away.
Ni Yangzhou shouted: "Master, he is trying to escape!"
Yan Congzhi drew out his longbow in an instant and shot several more times. The golden arrow arrived in an instant like lightning, breaking through the air with a "thump thump thump" sound, and the magic was completed when it landed! The young man was immediately nailed to the spot.
Just in case, Yan Congzhi picked up three talismans, pointed with his index and middle fingers, and the barrier was completed. The three talismans were clasped to block the way out.
The young man witnessed the whole process, his face turned pale, and he stopped struggling. He fell to the ground with a bang, as if he had fainted.
Ni Yangzhou did not expect that the battle would be resolved so quickly. He jumped between the branches in three or two steps and walked closer. He took a look and found that the man was not fainted. His whole body was so depressed that he seemed to overflow from the magic circle. He just lay down and let him be dealt with.
The boy scratched his head: "Who are you?"
Hearing this, the young man suddenly stood up and said, "Aren't you here to arrest me?"
Yan Congzhi followed and walked to the side, removed the transformation spell, and Ni Yangzhou returned to his original appearance. The vision returned to what it was before. The young man was quite uncomfortable and thought that he must grow taller in the future.
The handsome face of the Taoist priest in white was revealed. When the young man saw Yan Cong's true appearance, his thoughts of escaping were extinguished: "With such a face, he must be either a god or an immortal. My life is over."
Ni Yangzhou found it funny and asked, "Who are you? Meng Po? The one who takes care of the flowers and plants?"
The man lying flat on his back said weakly, "You can kill me, chop me up, or send me to hell. Just let me do whatever you want. There's no need to humiliate me like this."
Ni Yangzhou was stunned: "Is this really the King of Hell they are talking about?"
"…It's me. My crime is unforgivable. I impersonated the King of Hell and randomly seduced people's souls. According to the law, I should be sent to the Avici Hell and punished for 500 years before being reborn as an animal."
"You have already sentenced yourself?" Ni Yangzhou was surprised: "You knew the end would be like this, why did you still do such a thing?"
The young man lying on the ground cried slowly when he heard this, still holding an emerald orchid in his hand: "No matter how many sins I commit, I can't make her look back at me. No matter how many orchids I give her, I can't make her fall in love with me. I have given up."
The boy was confused: "What do you mean 'he'?"
Yan Congzhi took the man out of the formation. The young man allowed himself to be dealt with. He did not try to escape. He knelt down on the ground obediently, looking depressed. Where was the majesty of the Black and White Impermanence and the Horse-Faced Ox-Headed Impermanence who kept shouting "Master"? He was not injured at all, but he looked heartbroken and hopeless.
Ni Yangzhou squatted in front of the other person and said, "Tell me the truth about what you did, and I will let the master give you a quick death."
The young man knew that the other party's Taoism was far superior to his own, and he didn't even have the mood to know whether it was the underworld or the gods. He sighed and said slowly:
"My name is Wei Yu, and I'm originally from Nanzhou City. I entered Taoism when my parents died when I was young. Last year, my master died, so I came to Xixun County to seek a way out. But who would have thought that the Taoist temple I went to had long since disappeared. I was penniless, and I contracted a serious illness while traveling. When I was completely desperate, I thought of jumping into the lake. Fortunately, a woman saw me and persuaded me, and then I had the courage to continue living."
Ni Yangzhou poked the other person's body and found that it was indeed a spirit, not a living person.
"But things don't go as planned." The young man continued with a sad face, "I wanted to live, but I couldn't. I went out and encountered an ox cart, which frightened me. I was already dragging my broken body, and was kicked to death by the ox's hoof."
"Then how did he become the King of Hell?"
Ni Yangzhou sat cross-legged, waiting to hear the story.
"No one came to extradite me even though I was dead. I wandered around for a long time and saw 'her' at the county magistrate's house. That gentle woman who advised me to try my best to live, she was so beautiful and noble, with a gentle temperament, and planted orchids all over the yard. She was more beautiful than the flowers, and she was more beautiful than the flowers!"
Wei Yu's expression changed from yearning to bitterness: "How I wish I could marry her and have two, three, four, five or six children, so we can share the joy!"
Ni Yangzhou frowned immediately: "That's a nice thought, but do people know who you are? You've become a ghost, but you still daydream a lot!"
Wei Yu said sadly: "She doesn't love me, she doesn't like me, even if I planted a garden full of emerald orchids for her!"
Ni Yangzhou stood up, not wanting to listen anymore, and turned to his master and said, "I'm afraid this guy has hysteria. He wants people to love him after just one meeting."
"How could she not love me!" Wei Yu burst into tears, "I finally got the chance from heaven and earth, I could pick up magic weapons wherever I walked, I worked hard to build a paradise, just waiting for her to be the owner of this huge wealth, but she didn't want to! How could she not want to!"
Ni Yangzhou asked, "You mean, you were originally a ghost, and you picked up a magic weapon on the road, and then you built a fake hell yourself, and you kidnapped people's souls at will to make your own golden mountain, just to chase a girl?"
Wei Yu cried bitterly and lay on the ground, still immersed in the pain of being rejected.
"You must be kidding, right? How could a magic weapon fall from the sky? You're so lucky, where did you find it?"
Wei Yu raised his hand and swore: "If I tell even a single lie, God will strike me with lightning! I will go to the small cave in the back mountain of Xixun County!"
"Which magic weapons?"
"Kunyu long armor, soul-catching chain, and a stack of talismans for making things come true."
The last one was something Ni Yangzhou had heard of before. It was mentioned during a class at the monastery. It was said that the things that were drawn could come true, and if they were nourished by spiritual energy, the real objects would not dissipate.
The master and disciple looked at each other and decided to go to the place Wei Yu mentioned to see the situation after dealing with the matters here.
"What about the Black and White Impermanence?"
"I met a pair of brothers who looked quite stupid. They were detained temporarily. They said the underworld wanted to recruit them as emissaries. Oh, yes, that Xiao Bai seemed to have discovered something."
"Ox-headed and horse-faced?"
"The cow just stepped on my head to death. It's not unfair for it to work for me. The horse-faced man is a demon from the neighborhood. I tricked him into coming here. I told him that if he works for a hundred years, he can transform from a demon into a terrestrial immortal."
Ni Yangzhou felt that he and his master came here specifically to rescue the illegal workers.
"What about the county magistrate's daughter?"
"She, she, she doesn't love me, so I have no choice but to send her back..."
"Going back to where?"
Wei Yu raised her red eyes and said, "Go home."
At this time, the white-haired county magistrate and his wife were hugging their long-missing daughter who suddenly appeared and crying with joy. While crying, they did not forget to kowtow to the Taoist priest in red and thank him. Their beards were soaked with tears. They said gratefully:
"The Fairy of Flowers is truly powerful. My little girl is back safely! The people of Xixun County are saved, saved!"
Hongying sat upright in the main seat, with a long tasseled silk ribbon falling on her front and two small cherries hanging beside her ears, fresh and red.
She blinked and thought:
I haven't done anything yet, how come someone comes back?
