Chapter 216: Hosta
Xiao Wan's neck was pinched tighter and tighter, everything that had been once broke through the darkness and appeared in front of her, Xu abused her and beat her, tossed her innocent child for no reason, she begged to run away, in exchange for more vicious treatment every time.
At the moment when the breath of "Wanwan ......" was faint, Xiaowan heard the call of Xianggong.
"As long as you live well, anything can happen. I used to be so stupid to be free when I died. If I live again, even if I kill Xu with a sickle, I can't wait for one day to be beaten to death by her, or ask her to sell her. Xianggong, life is earned by yourself, right? ”
She remembered what she said to Ling Chaofeng on the way to the beach, she couldn't die in the hands of the Xu family, she couldn't be tortured by her for more than ten years, and finally died in her hands.
At this moment, Pei'er leaned down and rushed down, illusionized as a golden dragon immortal body, and opened her mouth, but in an instant, her mother's body was shining with golden light, and Pei'er was so dazzled that she couldn't open her eyes.
He stretched out his hand to block it, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw his father fall forward to the ground, and the barrier that was blocking him suddenly disappeared, and he lost his strength in time. But he quickly got up and rushed to his wife's side, and Pei'er also swooped down, not hesitating to take a breath of fairy breath for his mother to renew her life.
But Xiaowan didn't die, she woke up in Ling Chaofeng's arms, breathed a sigh of relief, coughed a few times, and smiled softly at her husband: "Xianggong, I'm fine......"
Xiao Wan raised her left hand, holding the lotus hosta tightly in her hand, which was a gift from the queen mother that Ling Chaofeng brought to her from the capital.
Xiaowan likes it very much and often wears it, and when she is on the line of life and death, although she can't see what is pressing on her body at all, her instinct to survive makes her take off the hosta and stab at the "thing" on her body.
That golden light, Xiao Wan and Ling Chaofeng didn't see it, but they were afraid that even a few Dao Masters would not have a chance to see each other.
Only Pei'er saw it.
When the mother was reborn in front of the Bodhisattva of the King of Jizo, the Bodhisattva once put a lotus flower on her sideburns that bloomed beside the mother, maybe the lotus flower became the hairpin in front of her, enough to stab the soul of the demon, the Bodhisattva compassion, had long anticipated the hardships of the coming day, and gave the mother a life-saving treasure.
The demon qi dissipated, the soul of the Xu clan had already been wiped out in Xiao Wan's hands, and the other little demon yin souls were easy to deal with, and the Taoist leaders cast spells to eliminate demons and exorcise evil spirits, and the dark clouds condensed in the sky above Baisha Town dispersed.
What's even more incredible is that those innocent people who were killed by the living soul demon have all come back to life.
Pei'er looked up at the sky, a purple light in the east was far away, I don't know which way the gods came to intervene in this matter, they finally did something serious.
Ling Chaofeng helped Xiaowan to get up, Pei'er escorted all the way, the people in the town saw that the clouds had cleared, and they went to the street to celebrate, several Taoist chiefs were embraced, and when they came, Xiaowan said okay, if this matter can be solved, the county magistrate and the Taoist don't tell anyone, it's because of her.
Although there was the best result, Xiaowan didn't care about anyone's gratitude, and Ling Chaofeng was the same.
In the evening of this day, the magistrate came to the inn with a Taoist chief, and the young parents were very grateful to Xiaowan, and the Taoist also gave Xiaowan a string of prayer beads and peace blessings, wishing her a smooth birth.
They even promised each other that they would keep it a secret. After all, a weak little lady like Xiaowan can fight against demons, and she may have some origin in her previous life.
The Taoist chief said that the secret of heaven must not be revealed, and there are some things, the less people know the better, and if you don't understand something, don't pursue it.
There is another thing, the magistrate told Xiao Wan by the way, that is, the Taoist chief said that Xu's soul was wiped out, and her body would be in a permanent coma, so the yamen decided to let Foreman Mu take people back.
When Zhixian and the Taoist left, Uncle Biao made dinner, Zhang Luo and everyone came to eat, the family sat quietly around the table of the Eight Immortals, Aunt Zhang was the first to pick up the spoon to serve the soup, and said to everyone: "This matter, just take it as a dream, get up early tomorrow, let's forget it." ”
Xiaowan said: "I don't know how to do it, I just stab it with a hairpin." Don't think that I have any special skills, I ......."
Su Su smiled on the side: "If you have special skills, will you still be beaten half to death by her?" Let me say, maybe the doll in the belly has some origins, and the child has protected you? ”
Xiao Wan nodded again and again: "It must be." ”
Ling Chaofeng said: "Whether it is or not, my aunt is right, it should be regarded as a dream, and when we wake up tomorrow morning, we will forget it." He picked up the big chicken leg, but it was delivered to Pei'er's bowl.
The Taoist chief told him that children have clean eyes and may be able to see things that adults can't see, so he behaves strangely.
When Ling Chaofeng heard this, he felt even more guilty about his son in his heart, that slap was enough for him to regret for a lifetime.
"Wow......" Pei'er was very happy, but he pretended to hold up the big chicken leg and asked the family around, and the adults let him, so he feasted beautifully.
Ling Chaofeng said to his son in front of his family: "Pei'er, Dad blames you and beats you, don't you be angry with Daddy?" ”
Pei'er was stunned, chewing the chicken with bulging cheeks, and looked at his father warily, he was still more accustomed to his father's fierce behavior of training him.
Ling Chaofeng smiled, making a loving appearance, looking creepy, and drilled into Xiaowan's arms, causing the family to laugh.
After a turmoil, Pei'er repeatedly confirmed that Baisha Town was "clean", so she didn't pester her father and mother to sleep that night, and slept in his own room obediently.
But Xiaowan still lulled him to sleep in his son's room, covered him with a tight quilt, and blocked the bed with a bench, afraid that he would roll down in the middle of the night, and only after everything was in order, he left quietly.
Ling Chaofeng had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and said with a smile: "You spoil him too much, even if you roll off the bed and hurt twice, he will be honest when he sleeps." ”
Xiaowan said: "I have not been spoiled since I was a child, so I want to spoil Pei'er and give him everything I haven't enjoyed." ”
Ling Chaofeng smiled and asked, "What about this in the belly, can you pet it?" ”
Xiaowan smiled: "I spoil my brother, and my brother spoils my younger brothers and sisters, don't you just do it." ”
They returned to the room, and Xiaowan took off the lotus hosta and carefully placed it under the pillow.
This day is really thrilling, but with Xianggong has experienced a lot of things, Xiaowan's courage is getting bigger and bigger, and her horizons are getting wider and wider, even if it is a line of life and death today, in retrospect, it is just a sigh.
Ling Chaofeng touched Xiaowan's neck and asked her if it hurt, because she was strangled by demons, she didn't even leave a bruise, and compared to those who died can be resurrected, this is nothing.
The magistrate told the people in the town that it was the Bodhisattva's manifestation and the help of the gods, and it was enough for the people to go home to reward the gods and thank the Buddha.
"The new adult, what a good person, even knelt down for us for the sake of the people." Xiaowan sighed, "Look at the bad guy in front, he even dared to rob my father-in-law's wife." ”
Ling Chaofeng was very relieved to see Xiaowan's expression, and couldn't help but kiss her a few times, and the little lady said tactfully: "Xianggong, bear with me, when I give birth to a child, we will be fine." ”
When he was about to fall asleep when he lay down, Xiaowan suddenly said, "Xianggong, it's good for you to take me home tomorrow." ”
Ling Chaofeng looked at her: "For the sake of the Xu family?" ”
Xiao Wan hummed, but didn't say anything.
Early the next morning, after Su Su and others came to work, Ling Chaofeng took Xiaowan and Pei'er out together, and when they arrived in the village, sure enough, many people gathered outside Foreman Mu's house, and when they saw them coming, they all shouted: "Brother Mu, your eldest son-in-law is here." ”
Foreman Mu came out, saw the child's door, sighed, and asked Xiaowan: "Do you know about your mother?" ”
Xiaowan faintly: "Dad, my mother died a long time ago, she is not my mother." ”
Foreman Mu smiled awkwardly and let the children in, while Pei'er took the candy and snacks she brought and went to find her aunt and uncle.
Xu was lying in the house, she had been washed, and Foreman Mu lifted the quilt to show them, only to see the unconscious woman covered in bruises, as thin as firewood.
"She was beaten every day in the prison, and she was afraid that she would be beaten like this." Foreman Mu, who didn't know about it, said, "I invited a doctor to come and see it, and said that it was useless, so I waited for my last breath." ”
Thinking of this woman, who had no remorse for her evil deeds, and was even more resentful of wanting to kill herself, Xiaowan's heart was cold, and she couldn't give birth to half of her sympathy.
She said indifferently: "I came today to persuade my father to open it and send her to be cremated earlier." ”
"But......" Foreman Mu was stunned.
"Naturally, it's up to you, but that's what I said." Xiao Wan said, "It's been a drag on you for a long time, Dad wants to understand it, send her earlier, and invite the master in the temple to recite the scriptures for her, which is worthy of her." ”
Foreman Mu was embarrassed: "I'm afraid that I will still be saved, if I come back to life, won't it become my murderer?" ”
Xiaowan said: "Then you just wait, if you come back to life, remember to find someone from the yamen to take her away, her prison is not over yet." ”
Seeing that his daughter was so ruthless, Foreman Mu had nothing to say, and asked him to send people like this for a while, he really couldn't do it, but he always kept it at home, looking at it in his eyes every day, and his heart was worried, and his family didn't look like a home.
"Wen Bao and Wen Juan, I'm afraid they are reluctant to kiss their mothers, they ......"
"Dad, when she beat me in the past, when you saw me covered in injuries, did you think about so many things?" Xiaowan asked, "Have you ever thought about saving me?" ”
Foreman Mu was asked, Xiaowan smiled faintly, glanced at Ling Chaofeng, and after Xianggong put down a bag of silver, he took her away.
"Pei'er, we're back." Xiaowan greeted her son, and Pei'er ran over happily, shouting, "Go fly a kite, fly a kite." ”
The villagers and Foreman Mu watched the carriage go away, and someone said: "Why is Xiaowan so kind, come back and take a look, if I am Xiaowan, I can't wait to take the opportunity to strangle this mother-in-law." Brother Mu, good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, your daughter and mother-in-law are the best proof. ”
Foreman Mu bit his lip and clenched his fists, and he also thought in his heart that maybe according to his daughter's words, it would have been better to send someone earlier.
Ling Chaofeng took his wife and children to the river, and they all said that they would fly kites in spring, and in this cold winter, who asked Ling Chaofeng to casually say that he wanted to buy kites for his son, and now he can only play with him.
Looking at the kite flying very high, Xiaowan smiled happily, Ling Chaofeng came over to support her and said, "Be careful to tilt your neck, you are dizzy." ”
Xiaowan smiled: "I'm fine, when I can run and jump, I want to play too." ”
But Ling Chaofeng said: "What happened just now, I didn't expect that when you went home, you asked your father-in-law to bury the Xu family." ”
Xiao Wan bowed: "I'm afraid that she will become something to harm me." ”
Ling Chaofeng said: "Since you have this wish, leave this matter to me to handle, it will be the New Year, and when the New Year is over, I will think of a son and let my father-in-law cremate her." ”
Xiaowan said: "I'm afraid that in a month or two, they will be annoyed enough." When the time comes, I ask you to help. ”
Ling Chaofeng sighed: "If someone else's relatives are sick, even if they are bankrupt, even if they have to guard the living dead for the rest of their lives, they will pass away, and they will be remembered by their relatives for a lifetime." But a person like Xu's will come to the world, what is he trying to do. ”
Xiaowan shook her head: "It has nothing to do with me, from now on, it will be truly pure." She deserves it, even if she dies, I won't forgive her. ”
"Then I don't want to." Ling Chaofeng hugged Xiaowan's waist, "Let's live our own lives, before the New Year, I will go out again, and I will be busy after the Lantern Festival, and I will accompany you every day." ”
After that, Ling Chaofeng went out of the door, and these days, the matter of Baisha Town was naturally reported by the magistrate.
When the emperor saw that the fold said that the demons were rampant in Baisha Town, and finally the Bodhisattva appeared to cross the catastrophe for the people, he couldn't help frowning, feeling strange in his heart, returned to the Hanyuan Palace, and handed the fold to Yanyan.
After reading it, he asked the emperor: "Isn't this an ordinary thing?" From time to time, people will say that they have visions and make up some myths and ghosts. ”
Xiang Run asked, "Really?" ”
Ruyan said with a smile: "The emperor rarely goes to the people, and he knows too little." ”
