The tense fire fight scene was thunderous and rainy, and it ended in nothing.

After Zhang Biao came out of the forest, his face was pale and he walked unsteadily. He led his subordinates to leave in a hurry, not even daring to say a cruel word.

Hehe...... Shi Meng watched coldly, knowing that the guy must have been surrendered by Chu Fan.

He was able to capture Zhang Biao with one move today, although because of the skyrocketing strength, he also took advantage of the surprise and the opponent's hand injury that did not heal. It is expected that even if Zhang Biao is bold, he does not dare to reveal Chu Fan's details. But his men were in high spirits, and when they returned, they had to tell them to keep their mouths shut.

The North District Catchers cheered in unison, and the sound shook the wilderness.

Chu Fan told them to leave quickly, and by the way, they took the three horses back to Yunsheng and the carriage and horses.

Yan Yi didn't know what the two sides were talking about in the forest, and was worried that Zhang Biao and Niu Ding would make trouble with Chu Fan in the future. After hesitating again and again, he told Niu Ding's secret trick that Dao Na was very likely to kill the two children.

In Shilizhuang in the countryside of the Southern District, there is a great benevolent man Mrs. Kong, who has no children and no daughters under his knees, and is delicious and fasting and reciting Buddha. Recently, a Buddhist hall was built in the backyard of his house, and all the oil lamps, sandalwood, offering plates, incense burners and other things needed came in from Yanyi. The two have known each other for many years and have nothing to talk about.

Yan Yi sent things to Shili Township three days ago, and visited Mrs. Kong on the way. It was strange to see a five-year-old girl in the house.

I was told a horrific story.

More than half a month ago, the sky was bright and bright, and the courtyard gate was smashed by stones. Mrs. Kong opened the door and saw a little girl lying on the steps, her face was blue.

The grandfather was so frightened that he urgently called the old slave and the wife in the family, but a big man came out of the oblique thorn and claimed to be catching a fast cow, and found that there was a dead boy in front of the door, and grabbed him and was going to see the official.

Mrs. Kong knew that blackmail was impossible, so he had to spend money to eliminate the disaster and gave Niu Ding three taels of silver.

I wanted to bury the little girl quietly, but I noticed that there was still a faint breath, so I took her into the house and fed some rice soup, took care of her carefully, and asked the doctor to diagnose the disease and prescribe medicine, but she slowly improved.

asked the little girl about the past, but she was too unclear about the novel, and she was confused and comatose in those days. But according to her, she and her two brothers originally lived in the judge's temple in the county seat.

Mrs. Kong guessed that her two elder brothers were either sold by Niu Ding, or they were poisoned by Niu Ding and used to extort other people's families.

Yan Yi told this incident, just hoping that Chu Fan would have a handle to counter Zhang Biao and Niu Ding, but he didn't know that it had set off a storm in his heart.

That night, I walked all over Yangwu, and the goddess sprinkled silver like scattered flowers. Chu Fan saw that the three little beggars in the judge's temple were trembling and cold, so he deliberately threw out the two pieces of curtains brought out of Zhang Biao's house, and also lost two or three pieces of silver. When I went back two days later, I found that there was no one in the temple, and I thought I had returned home. Unexpectedly, they were killed by Niu Ding.

Chu Fan was angry and thought, Zhang Biao just said that he couldn't go out for a few days after being injured, and he didn't dare to publicize it, so he didn't instruct people to secretly collect evidence to "catch demons" and wait for an opportunity to retaliate.

A few poor beggars who had no quarrel with the world did not have an accident sooner or later, but then they were killed, could it be that the drapery and silver they gave were discovered by Niu Ding and harmed them? If so, could it not be that he indirectly pushed the two children onto Huangquan Road......

In the twilight, Chu Fan's face became more and more gloomy, and he said to Yan Yi hoarsely:

"Think about it again, go back to what you know, and don't hide anything from it. ”

Yan Yi knew that the stakes were very high, and saw that he became murderous after being silent for a long time, and immediately poured beans into the bamboo tube and put them out, not even missing the subtleties.

After listening to Yan Yi's words, Chu Fan's mind was full of alarm bells, and a chill ran down his spine.

For the first time since he regained consciousness, he felt a strong threat, not even when he escaped from Lujiabao.

It turned out that Niu Ding thought that three taels of silver was less, and there was a huge yard behind him, and he would never rest without ten taels. After speaking, he forced his way into the backyard, trying to forcibly collect his belongings.

Master Kong and the slaves are old, where can they stop it.

Niu Ding was fast, strode into the backyard, and then let out an exclamation.

The door of the Buddha hall was open, and when Mrs. Kong rushed over, he saw Niu Ding kneeling on the futon in front of the Bodhisattva statue muttering.

Mrs. Kong was afraid that he would blaspheme, so he hurried forward, and his crutches made the ground clatter. When Niu Ding heard the voice behind him, he got up and left as if he had lost his soul, and he no longer asked for silver, and almost tripped over the threshold.

The morning was quiet, and Old Lady Kong clearly heard him kneeling and muttering, "...... King Jizo, their longevity is over, and the villain is just ordered to ferry......"

The person enshrined in the Buddha hall is the Bodhisattva of the King of Jizo.

Yan Yi and Mrs. Kong felt that Niu Ding's words were just startled when they suddenly bumped into the Bodhisattva statue early in the morning, and they felt ashamed in their hearts. But the more Chu Fan pondered, the more he felt extraordinary.

Today, it is the world of Taoism, there is very little Buddhism, and Buddhism only flourishes in small countries in the Western Regions.

There is only one dragon king temple and one judge temple in Yangwu County, and there is no temple. Therefore, lay people like Mrs. Kong built their own Buddhist halls, and ordinary people did not know the name of the Bodhisattva at all. Even if Chu Fan, who had the knowledge of his previous life, entered the temple, he didn't know which one was the king of Jizo.

In any era, people who have lost their conscience generally do not believe in ghosts and gods. The so-called whispers in the world are like thunder, and the dark room is deceiving, and the eyes of the gods are like electricity. Once there is awe in the heart, the bad things will be done and they will shrink back.

Judging from Niu Ding's performance, he believes in ghosts and gods.

Besides, if you don't eat fasting and chant Buddha, how can you recognize the king of Jizo at a glance?

It shows that he must be doing secret things, and he is involved in ghosts and gods and Jizo.

Bodhisattvas also have characteristics, such as Avalokiteshvara's "compassion", Fugen's "wisdom", and Jizo's "filial piety......

But there is a special case.

Jizo's reputation among the people is not due to his persuasion of filial piety and helping people to cure diseases, but because he is the king of hell. Yama is only responsible for the ghosts, not as powerful as him. That grand vow, "Hell is not empty, you will not become a Buddha, and all sentient beings will be exhausted before you can prove Bodhi", but it is widely spread and domineering.

Thinking back to Niu Ding's words, "...... King Jizo, their longevity is over, and the villain is just ordered to ferry ......", which is creepy.

Why does he say that others have reached the end of their lives?

In this scene, it was not like the executioner who killed people in private and bumped into the prince and exonerated himself? quibbling that the villain was just ordered to cut off his head......

Legend has it that after death, the soul must first cross the River Styx in order to reach the Netherworld.

There is a half-man, half-ghost messenger ferrying on the river.

Could it be that this Niu Ding is not only a white servant, but also a part-time Ferryman of the River Styx?

Amazing!

Disastrous!

There are no immortal masters and no masters in Yangwu County, but I didn't expect to hide a terrible Styx ferryman!

Compared with him, the history of the county that Shi Meng feared was simply scum.

Chu Fan sneered.

Whether it's true or not, he decides to find out to the end and avenge the two innocent little children.

He was sure that if Niu Ding couldn't come up with extremely powerful means, at least his body would not be able to block his punch.
