Chapter 254: A Gentleman's Heart Lives in the Belly of a Villain
Sure enough, Zhang Yuanwai couldn't stand Xiantu's repeated bluffs, at this time he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, the corners of his mouth were white and trembling, and he swept the people in the room with his residual light, and waved his hand at the subordinates, signaling them to retreat for the time being.
Stepping back, there was another 'knock' sound, and Zhang Yuanwai knelt in front of Xiantu again, kowtowed and pleaded repeatedly: "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives, this is all the old man's fault, this is all the old man's fault." β
At this time, Xiantu looked surprised, looked at Zhang Yuanwai, who kowtowed repeatedly, and asked incomprehensibly: "Outside, what are you doing, how can it be your fault?" β
After speaking, Xiantu stepped forward to help Zhang Yuanwai and asked in a serious tone: "Don't panic outside the staff, if you have something, just take your time, this lord came to your mansion today, and he must help you eradicate these elves and ghosts, you can rest assured that you don't have to worry about it." β
Xiantu's words were like a reassuring pill, Zhang Yuanwai was not as flustered as he was just now when he heard it, he just told Steward Qian to go to the door to stand guard, and never let anyone hear this secret.
That's right, it seems that there is really a shocking secret here, but what kind of secret is this, which will make a good family become what it is now, I thought incomprehensibly.
After the first qiΔ was properly done, Zhang Yuanwai walked to Xiantu's side and slowly told everything that happened in Zhang's mansion, and even told Xiantu about the strange things that happened in Zhang's mansion a few years ago, which made Xiantu very insightful.
It turned out that talking about this strange thing went back to ten years ago, and it was said that ten years ago, Zhang Yuanwai liked to hunt. He was fascinated by it, and he had to shoot an animal almost every day to relieve the sickness in his heart, and slowly the beasts in the mountains and forests were killed less and less by him. And Zhang Yuanwai's obsession with Cheng DΓΉ is no longer to shoot one, but has become an endless killing.
In this way, he led his subordinates to shoot wild beasts in the mountains and forests every day, and the more he killed, the more red his eyes became, and the more he killed, the more crazy he became, so that no one could control him.
At that time, Zhang Gongzi was still a teenager, and he followed Zhang Yuanwai all day long. accompanied Zhang Yuanwai to kill all the beasts on the mountain one after another, and the beasts were almost extinct in those years.
But that's how the bane was planted, just when their killing intent was getting heavier and heavier. The strange things in the house have emerged one after another, first Mrs. Zhang's personality has changed greatly, Mrs. Zhang, who has always been gentle and virtuous, suddenly became ferocious and vicious, and Zhang Gongzi, who has nothing to do, has also become what he is today.
I saw some strange things happening in the house one after another. Zhang Yuanwai began to examine himself. Thinking that he had indeed killed too much over the years, he was resented by both heaven and man, and the good mansion never lived in peace again.
Slowly, Zhang Yuanwai no longer slaughtered living beings, but began to protect those wild domestic animals, perhaps God decided to forgive him for his past mistakes, and by chance, he met the profound Taoist Wang Daochang. This royal Taoist was originally a qi cultivator in Kunlun Mountain, and the Dao practice has been cultivated to the point of perfection.
On this day, it happened that Wang Daochang chased and killed all the demons and came to Taipingzhuang. After learning about the strange things that happened in Zhang's Mansion, he decided to stay overnight, but he never thought that Zhang's Mansion, which had always been full of strange things, was actually calm in the days when Wang Daochang lived, as if he had returned to the past.
At this time, Mrs. Zhang changed back to a gentle and considerate appearance, and Zhang Gongzi studied hard every day, as if the strange things in Zhang's mansion had disappeared like this, so that Zhang Yuanwai became confused, and he was about to forget the strange things that happened in the mansion.
Wang Daochang, who stayed in Zhang's mansion, saw a peaceful atmosphere in the house, so he said goodbye to Zhang Yuanwai with confidence, and when he left, he made the two huge stones in the mountain into the shape of a lion, and personally used cinnabar to turn the eyes of the stone lion red, for fear that after he left, there would be demons to collect debts.
This royal road has been gone for several years without news, Zhangfu has been blessed with a stone lion is even more smooth, not only Zhang Yuanwai's business is becoming more and more prosperous, even Zhang Gongzi has also won a show in the title of the gold list, this dazzling scene reflects the prosperity of Zhangfu everywhere.
However, the comfortable days are always so uncherished, and Zhang Yuanwai has a little itchy hands after a few years of peaceful life, so that he can't see a single game on the mountain in the winter.
This is good again, the prosperity of Zhang's mansion seems to have come to naught overnight, the hard-working and motivated Zhang Gongzi has become a bloodthirsty and weird demon, the considerate and gentle Mrs. Zhang has become a poisonous woman with a femme fatale, and behind a series of strange stories, even Zhang Yuanwai himself has undergone irreversible changes.
He used to be so bold and willful, but now, in his own words, even the scream of a wild cat would make him tremble with fright, but what was going on, even he didn't understand, he only knew that he had done something wrong again, and the punishment of heaven had once again come to his house.
Hearing what Zhang Yuanwai said, Xiantu completely understood, only to see him say to Zhang Yuanwai as if he was packing a ticket: "Don't worry, as long as you promise me that from now on, I will help you eradicate the evil and return a peace in your mansion like Wang Daochang back then." β
Hearing Xiantu's confident words, Zhang Yuanwai knelt on the ground with a bang, and after a few rings, Zhang Yuanwai assured Xiantu with tears on his face: "My lord, I, Zhang Jinde, swear to the sky, from now on, I will change my mind and be a new person, and never hurt a small creature again. β
"Okay, since Zhang Yuanwai is willing to make this poisonous oath, I won't embarrass my grandfather in the future, and I also ask Zhang Yuanwai to take me to visit my son as soon as possible, so that this scourge can be ended as soon as possible." Xiantu stood up, looked at the repentant Zhang Yuanwai, and confidently went to visit Zhang Gongzi.
Hearing Xiantu say this, Zhang Yuanwai also stood up and shouted outside the door: "Steward Qian, call all the family members in the mansion and wait for the dispatch of the adults." β
"Yes, sir." Steward Qian answered outside the door.
"I'm enough for one person, I don't have to greet so many people." Xiantu said to Zhang Yuanwai.
"Alas, don't be polite, adults, as the so-called more people are powerful, if the dog is really possessed by a monster, call more people to give us courage, do you say yes?" Zhang Yuanwai explained.
Xiantu smiled bitterly, thinking, I thought that you called the family in the mansion to catch demons, it turned out that it was to give you the courage to mobilize so many people to go, it seems that you are living the belly of the villain with the heart of a gentleman. (To be continued......)
