Master is tempting, come to my disciple's arms
Chapter 124 The Rabbit Eats the Grass Near Its Nest
After returning to Ancheng, the weather has been as unpredictable as if it were sick. It is bright red in the morning and rainy in the afternoon.
There were very few pedestrians on the street, and pedestrians and vendors taking shelter from the rain could be seen everywhere under the eaves. The rain came together with the wind, and the wind was so loud that the colorful oil-paper umbrellas could not withstand the heavy rain.
The Zhao family mansion is located in the southwest corner. Yesterday was the 60th birthday of the old man of the Zhao family. People are in high spirits when they have a happy event. For this important happy event, everyone in the mansion performed their duties and was busy and happy.
At the birthday banquet, everyone raised their cups and uttered all kinds of auspicious birthday wishes. The atmosphere was filled with everyone smiling and looking relaxed.
After eating a bowl of longevity noodles, Mr. Zhao accepted everyone's heartfelt congratulations with a rosy face, feeling overwhelmed with joy.
But before the day had passed, Mr. Zhao today was completely different from yesterday, like a dying man with only a thread of life left.
The firecracker paper scraps that had not been cleaned up in time were ruthlessly washed away by the heavy rain like a pool of blood.
The rain outside has not stopped, and the sorrow inside has not ended.
His first wife passed away due to childbirth complications. When they were deeply in love, he could only think of her by looking at her belongings. Until now, he has never remarried.
Several concubines of Zhao Na sat in a circle in front of the bed, each holding a handkerchief in their hands and pretending to cry. Some of them were prostitutes, and some were from poor families. They were all coaxed back by Mr. Zhao's kindness and the words that he wanted to give each girl a home.
I have to say that Mr. Zhao is better at flirting with girls than young guys.
The original wife gave birth to two sons and one daughter, which continued the Zhao family's bloodline. The second son had a son named Zhao Dushan, who was born with superior spiritual roots and had a quick aptitude. At the Sanqing Sect's disciple-recruiting meeting, he was spotted by the sect leader Wu Zihui and accepted as an inner disciple.
He should have returned home on his grandfather's birthday, but was caught and beaten by his own master, delaying the best time to visit his relatives.
Zhao Dushan's mother was a well-educated and well-mannered young lady from a wealthy family. No matter what the situation was, she always spoke and acted in a steady and serious manner without being hurried.
Compared with her elder sister-in-law, Xiu Hui's clumsiness between the two is much more obvious.
It was also because of this that she was secretly targeted by her sister-in-law time and time again.
Mr. Zhao's illness came so strangely that everyone was extremely puzzled. They invited a doctor, who, after a thorough diagnosis, said that he had no serious illness. If one person said this, everyone would find it unbelievable. But if two, three, or four people said the same thing, would you still not believe it?
Celebrating birthdays will only make people live longer, how can it also make people suddenly develop strange diseases and become bedridden?
I don't know who came up with this idea, but they said that some things couldn't be explained with normal explanations, so it would be better to invite a monk with some skills to settle this difficult matter.
An idea suddenly came to his mind. Is it still necessary to spend money to invite outsiders when there is a ready-made solution? Everyone's eyes were on Zhao Bo, begging his son to come down from the mountain and return to the world to eliminate the disaster and solve the problem for their grandfather.
Zhao Dushan was entrusted with an important task as soon as he came down the mountain, so he had to return to his birthplace, Hui'ancheng, to check on his grandfather's health.
He dismissed all the outsiders and only left a few immediate relatives. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Zhao Dushan first took out a bronze mirror from the storage bag, and then tore out a long strip of yellow paper. He bit his fingertips and a drop of blood flowed out, full and heavy.
The bloody words circled on the talisman, and he finished it in one stroke without any pause.
At this time, the talisman only took shape and its efficacy was not fully exerted. The young man closed his eyes and chanted to the talisman. The tongue-twisting spells that came out of his mouth all evolved into real strokes, which went into the talisman along the caliber and disappeared. The others witnessed the magical scene in front of them, and their expressions were the same, staring at it and unable to stop. The talisman, which was infused with the spiritual energy of cultivation, was officially finished.
He slapped the talisman on Mr. Zhang's forehead. Maybe he didn't control the strength well, or maybe the talisman took effect, but the old man was slapped so hard that his eyes were bloodshot and his mouth opened wide.
A bronze mirror suddenly appeared before his eyes, and the image in the mirror was reflected in the air, and the reason was solved from then on.
The three souls and seven spirits are the foundation of human life. Without any one soul or spirit, it will not work. However, Mr. Zhang’s situation is not optimistic at the moment, because he is now a "living dead".
All seven spirits are gone, and two of the three souls are missing. He was obviously an energetic and strong old man, but no one knew who he had offended, but he has turned into this dying, withered and decadent state now.
The only thing Zhao Dushan could narrow down was the various people who had close contact with him during his grandfather's birthday yesterday.
"Who did your grandfather hang out with on his birthday?"
He turned his eyes to his uncle, aunt, father and mother, hoping to get a clear name from them.
Li Caiyun quickly reviewed the faces of the guests who came to celebrate her birthday yesterday. She reported the names of everyone she knew one by one. They were all her relatives, friends, good neighbors and kind people. There was no stranger or enemy who would come uninvited.
Everyone present is a suspect, and it would be relatively difficult to screen them one by one. I'm afraid the old man would die before we can find his lost two souls and seven spirits.
Zhao Dushan's uncle and aunt did not say a word throughout the whole process, but just watched it all with cold eyes. As for what the young man said, they did not listen at all, as if the man lying on the bed had no blood relationship with them, not a flesh and blood relative with broken legs and tendons.
Zhao Bo looked at the heartless appearance of his elder brother and his wife, and a feeling of inexplicable anger rose in his heart. His younger sister was locked in the backyard and went crazy, and his father met with an accident and his life or death was unknown.
The young man pressed the old man's Baihui acupoint with his index finger, and a wisp of spiritual energy climbed along his fingertips and wandered into the old man's brain. This spiritual power would temporarily protect his sanity and shackle one of his soul. Once the remaining soul that had disappeared was found, it would be transmitted to the grandfather's body to merge with it.
Zhao Dushan had a gentle appearance and a steadfast character. He most likely looked like his mother, and his personality was very similar to his father.
The Zhao family had few descendants up to his father's generation. His father had only him as an only son, and his uncle and aunt had two daughters in a row, both of whom were married off to good husbands.
The remaining one is the aunt who has been mentally retarded and crazy since childhood. I heard that it is a disease that she was born with and cannot be cured.
----
Zhang Hegui enjoyed the food and wine for free. To express his gratitude, he detained Mr. Zhang's soul and seven spirits, and prepared to use the Soul Purification Ball to refine them into pure essence to be used as a substitute for His Majesty's body condensation.
As for why he still held back, the answer is that he is not an ungrateful person. You treated me to a meal, so I was gentle with you. In this way, he still has a conscience...
After Chu Yunze returned to Yunxiao Peak, he kept looking for and creating opportunities to meet with Wen Guangbai to reminisce about the past, and to find out at the same time whether the so-called sugar beans were actually fertility pills or new medicines for removing bitterness and astringency.
In Yunwei Peak, he asked Meng Yi about Wen Guangbai's whereabouts and work arrangements for the day. The girl felt that he was dedicated and responsible. As the second disciple of Bai Xianzun of Yunxiao Peak, he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to come to Yunwei Yaofeng to help out in his spare time. He was truly a "flower protector" among the new generation of disciples.
Just because of his love for work and his attitude of not fearing hard work. She could be scolded by Wen Guangbai, but Chu Yunze must meet with his master.
The little girl brushed off the broken leaves on her robe and pointed him in the right direction. "Master is in the alchemy room."
Wen Guangbai's life is really boring. Every day he is either in the alchemy room or in the medicine field.
No wonder he had evil intentions towards me and coveted my body. Wasn't I the one who was closest to him in the past? It is often said that rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows, but who would run around the mountain if there is grass near their burrows?
As for the fact that he was treated as a substitute for his master, he felt it was not worth it for both himself and his master. Fortunately, now both he and his master have their lovers to spend the rest of their lives with, which is a great honor!
Meng Yi saw Chu Yunze standing there in a daze, his eyebrows furrowed, sometimes smiling and sometimes angry. She took two steps forward and waved her five fingers in front of his eyes a few times, "Brother Chu, are you...are you okay?"
The man came back to his senses as if waking from a dream, and said: "Nothing, nothing, I'll leave first."
"Oh... okay, go ahead!" Meng Yi looked at Chu Yunze's back and felt that Senior Brother Chu seemed a little abnormal in his mind today.
What could Wen Guangbai be busy with in the alchemy room? Could he be busy developing a fertility pill?
Now he is caught red-handed, let's see how he will defend himself!
He felt that the truth was about to be revealed to the world, so of course he was excited!
Chu Yunze couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth after personally exposing Wen Guangbai's conspiracy.
Facts have proved that people should never be happy too early, because you will find that hope is directly proportional to disappointment...
Wen Guangbai looked at the man at the door with confusion. He put down the ancient pharmacopoeia in his hand, and his face was full of the seven words "What are you doing here?"
Chu Yunze: "..."
He took a deep breath to calm down his excitement. He said, "Uncle Master, I want to apologize to you. It was my fault in the past. I slandered you for stealing my sachet. Later I found out that it was stolen by an unknown thief. I have never found a suitable opportunity to apologize to you, so I want to apologize with wine. I hope you will not refuse."
At that time, he would put some elixir in the wine that could make people tell the truth. He didn't believe that Wen Guangbai could keep his mouth shut.
Wen Guangbai raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that the sun had risen from the west today. Want to drink? No problem, I'll accompany you to the end.
Besides, he hadn't tasted the love of his nephew for a long time, so he might as well take this opportunity to open his hearts to her and express his longing for her.
The deterioration of moral bottom line lies between the right and wrong of human nature. He changed his mind and felt that his behavior was very sorry to Su Mu. Although Su Mu treated him very well, he was originally on top, especially since he had always coveted Chu Yunze's body. With such a comparison, it was really difficult to make a decision.
