Chapter 165: The Torture of a Rich Merchant
The Shen family's big mansion, although big, is big and empty.
All the way in.
Wu Mian was stunned and didn't see many maids and servants, and the flowers and plants in the court were also very sloppy, as if they were built at random and then thrown there, let them grow freely, and then build them when needed, without the slightest enjoyment of life that a wealthy businessman should have.
It seems that as outsiders say, Shen Tianhe, a lowly bone who started from scratch as a low-level merchant, will not enjoy it, but will not feel sorry for the owner of money, and all of it will be used to do good deeds.
The sound of the boots stepping on the fallen leaves was dry and dead, with a faint ominous aura, as if a dying man was trying to save everything, but the result was like this fallen leaf, irreversible.
Not only that, but after entering the Shen family's mansion.
A sense of familiarity permeated Shang Wu's heart.
From Shen Tianhe's body, he felt a faint remnant of the Yin Ghost aura, and every time he looked at Shen Tianhe, there was always a feeling that the other party was very vain. Shen Tianhe, this person, seems to be the same as the Shen family's mansion in front of him, huge but crumbling.
Recall what you read in the car.
Wu Mourning already knew five or six points about Shen Tianhe in his heart.
But the specifics will have to be discussed in detail and observed.
Shen Tianhe took Wu Mourning to a lotus platform and invited Wu Mourning to sit down first.
"There are not many people in the house, most of them are willing to serve me, most of them have received my kindness and hope to repay me, don't be surprised by the martial arts captain, in fact, I don't like others to serve me." Shen Tianhe, who was in a wheelchair, bowed his hand, and then waved his hand to let the servant behind him go down first.
"Master Shen's way of life, Wu will naturally not point fingers."
Wu mourned politely and returned the salute.
It's not that he has a request for others, but that Shen Tianhe's reputation for benevolence and righteousness is worthy of his politeness. Even if there is a reason for the other party to donate money, it cannot be denied that there are many families who survive because of Shen Tianhe, at least this legendary rich businessman is not disgusted and disdainful in Wu Mourning's intuition.
"Captain Wu is a bright person, and Shen naturally doesn't hide it. That portrait, if you had come a month earlier, I would have given you no problem for nothing, but now it really doesn't work. ”
Shen Tianhe got straight to the point.
Wu Mourning has made it very clear in the worship post that he is here for the portrait of the god and man.
"Why?"
"The portrait is no longer in my possession, but has been taken, and there was a bit of an argument, and half of the portrait was burned." A trace of helplessness flashed on Shen Tianhe's face, and he could see that he was a little hesitant to continue to talk about the rest of the matter.
Shen Tianhe's micro-expression could not be hidden for Wu Mourning, a Tibetan martial artist with excellent perception, he could be sure that the other party was not lying, and he also had a psychological estimate that his trip was not so smooth.
It's okay to burn half of the portrait.
As long as it is not burned to ashes and is directly blown away, Wu Mourning should be able to save the robbery.
"Master Shen is willing to use the mental method comprehended in the portrait through Wu's view?" Wu Mian changed his mind and did not rush to ask the reason.
"Naturally, you can."
Shen Tianhe expected this request from the Wu Memorial Meeting, and took out a thin booklet from his arms.
Wu Mourning took it over and opened it to read.
The content in it is indeed a mental method, but the content has little effect on Wu Mourning, this mental method is more like Shen Tianhe's rhapsody combined with the portrait of a god and man, and even mixed with some Buddhist hell theories, it seems to be to make a Buddhist sect bitter view.
As a down-to-earth warrior.
Wu Mourning pondered, if someone really practiced according to this mental method, the result would be either a madman or a Buddha, no matter what it was, in the end, he would not be a human being.
So he decisively gave up the idea of continuing to watch, and directly closed it and handed it back to Shen Tianhe.
"This mental method ......"
"It's just a joke, it's just my Shen's crazy thoughts." Shen Tianhe smiled faintly and said what Wu Mourning wanted to say in more direct and sharp words.
However, Wu Mourning sounded like someone had said this to him.
Shen Tianhe coughed lightly, he was obviously a living person, but he couldn't give others much sense of life. After a while, it was as if I had finished thinking and made some kind of decision.
"Captain Wu, that portrait, are you really bound to get it? If so, Shen is willing to tell Yu Ling everything, and it is up to you to decide whether you are willing to help Shen with this. ”
"If you are not satisfied with Your Excellency, that is really important to me."
"Then I hope Captain Wu can help me kill someone."
"Who?"
"Let me get this rich man!" Shen Tianhe, who was originally lifeless, flashed a fierce look in his eyes, and only at this moment, he didn't feel like a dead person, but a resentful soul who hadn't swallowed his last breath, even if he died, he would drag people to hell.
Wu Mian soon heard the story told by Shen Tianhe, a legendary wealthy businessman.
Shen Tianhe asked someone from the Xuanmen for help.
This is what happened after his career, and the person in the Xuanmen bluntly said that Shen Tianhe was a late bloomer, but he was stolen and changed his life and forcibly changed it to the life of a cornucopia. A drink and a peck, there is a fixed number, Shen Tianhe changed like this, which can be rudely understood as that he has problems before and after his life.
Middle-aged and widowed and childless, lonely and miserable, unable to be saved.
And the person who helped Shen Tianhe change his life was met when he was twenty years old.
That year, Shen Tianhe was still a merchant at the bottom, not to mention pickups, and he sold goods on his shoulders. At that time, he was not less blinded, and he accompanied the smiling face every day, but when he was alone, he couldn't smile when he looked at this hard life, but fortunately, his wife was virtuous, and it was not impossible to live a hard life.
Until one day.
A Taoist in a black robe came to the door to beg for water.
After drinking the water, he said to Shen Tianhe that if he wanted to give him a splash of wealth, it would be called Juyun Basin, and it should be regarded as this bowl of water. When Shen Tianhe heard this, he naturally agreed happily, and the Taoist didn't know what he did, so he began to be lucky, and it was the kind of luck that took great luck! The cornucopia physique is showing its power!
And then the nightmare began.
At first, making some small money, it is not obvious.
But once, Shen Tianhe suddenly won the jackpot while gambling on the horse and got 100,000 treasure bills. As a result, before he could be happy, bad news came from the family, his wife suddenly gave birth prematurely, and she was already a life, and she died after giving birth to only a baby boy.
Shen Tianhe, who shared weal and woe with his wife in the early years, was depressed for a long time.
But life has to go on, and he has to take care of his son, so he continued the strings.
And that's just the beginning.
After betting on the horse, the cornucopia is like driving full horsepower, and it can't stop.
As long as Shen Tianhe is doing business, or even gambling, the money he spends will flow back exponentially. And every time he makes money, Shen Tianhe can get the news that his relatives and friends have accidents, and the more money he makes, the more serious the accident will be for his relatives or friends in his hometown!
At this time, Shen Tianhe understood, what kind of cornucopia is this?
It's clearly a life-damaging basin!
He wants to change all that.
And the black-clothed Taoist priest also appeared at the right time at this time, and he told Shen Tianhe that this life was impossible to change, because his life was already involved with the dragon vein of Zhuxia. Shen Tianhe angrily questioned the other party why he wanted to harm him, but the black-clothed Taoist said leisurely, the kindness of a bowl of water can only be repaid with a bowl of water.
Then he disappeared in front of Shen Tianhe.
From that time on.
Shen Tianhe began to spend money frantically, trying to change the path of his cornucopia life.
But life and death are impermanent, fate is even more impermanent, he can't do anything, he can only watch his relatives and friends, his new beloved wife, brothers, and finally his son, one by one to leave his side, and then only his lonely self, guarding the gold and silver mountains to be silent.
In the information on the car, there are no more people left around Shen Tianhe, and there is also a distant relative.
And the horror is.
Everyone else is used to it, and there's nothing wrong with it. Even if it was Wu Mourning, he didn't feel anything wrong at first when he looked at it, but when he reacted, he felt that this legendary rich businessman was simply a lone star.
This is also the reason why there are very few attendants in the Shen family's mansion.
Shen Tianhe can't have friends.
Even if it is a subordinate, if he talks happily with the other party, then sooner or later the cornucopia will kill the other party and become the wealth in the Shen Mansion!
When the son left in his arms.
Shen Tianhe completely closed his heart, and there was only one hope for life.
That's to kill the black-clothed Taoist!
The demon Dao pretended to say that a bowl of water was lovely, and it was clearly a deliberate attempt to harm him! This earth-pouring riches, do you want it? So Shen Tianhe wants him to die! He has nothing else left, only Wanguan's family wealth and this rotten life, the black-clothed Taoist will still come to him, and then he will be stoned to death by the money and wealth!
The portrait of the god man was actually secretly collected by Shen Tianhe, trying to borrow the power of the god man to fight against the black-clothed Taoist.
But it doesn't seem to work.
At least when the black-clothed Taoist saw the portrait of the god, he did have some reaction, and he burned half of it and took it away.
Wu Mourning ignored Shen Tianhe's tragic story.
There was a number in my head.
Shen Tianhe is fifty and six this year, if he was changed when he was twenty years old, then the black-clothed Taoist had already been active more than thirty years ago.
What is this concept?
Wu Mourning only thought about it a little and understood that the other party was definitely an old monster who could retain a certain amount of strength and walk on the land of Zhuxia before the tide of spiritual energy came. This kind of old monster with a view of good and evil that basically no longer exists, and it is very likely that it was not casual to change his life against Shen Tianhe.
Because the Suwutang data is recorded, when the aura is low, whether it is a martial artist or a Taoist priest, once the power of the shot exceeds its own qi and blood, it will be a huge loss.
Generally, the old monster who lives for his life is not forced to do it, and he will not make a move.
Then what did he change Shen Tianhe's life for?
Wu Mian asked this question suspiciously, and Shen Tianhe also knew that the black-clothed Taoist was for his luck. But what exactly to do for luck, the people in the Xuanmen who invited him didn't know much about it, and they were also confused about the identity of the black-clothed Taoist.
In this land of Yunzhou, there are not too many Taoist priests in black.
The methods used by this black-clothed Taoist are very obscure, and they can only vaguely see that it is the number of ancient Daomen, and they don't know more. As for its strength, Shen Tianhe had asked the martial artist to quietly observe, it should not be too strong, that is, around the middle stage of Qizang, there may be more life-saving methods.
After all, it's a Taoist priest.
Taoist priests are not necessarily as good at frontal combat as warriors, but the ability to avoid disasters and rescue disasters is definitely a compulsory course, and every Taoist priest is a dual cultivation of life.
Shen Tianhe finished the story in one go, like a bystander.
I guess he has also said it to many people.
So the tone of the whole story almost didn't fluctuate, his heart was dead, sitting on a mountain of gold and silver, and the only purpose was to kill the enemy.
Wu mourned for a while.
In the end, it was a solemn opening.
"Wu doesn't dare to assert it, but this demon is harmful, if he can do it, Wu will definitely behead him, in order to repay Master Shen for providing portrait information today."
After all, it was an old monster, and it was impossible for Wu Mourning to say that he would definitely cut off the other party's dog head before he observed it.
But this old monster.
Generally, there are many ways to survive, but the ability to do it head-on is not strong, and there is no lack of opportunities.
The reason is very simple, because when the tide of aura recedes, the other party will change his body to a state of adaptation to a low aura state, which is similar to the biological evolution route, similar to the one that chose the turtle, and is often inferior to the martial artist who has grown up normally.
Except for the realm.
Wu Mourning is a very typical normally developed martial artist, his majestic blood and all kinds of true skills, he can completely make the life of some Taoist priests unable to take care of themselves.
"It's enough to have the words of the martial school captain, and Shen doesn't force more."
Shen Tianhe smiled slightly, and his attitude was still not far away, but he looked detached.
His appearance is pitiful.
What if you have a lot of money? There is no longer even a family and friend to live, there is no one who can speak and complain, and there is no higher pursuit in life, so living like this is simply a torture!
It's no wonder that Shen Tianhe wanted to kill the black-clothed Taoist priest.
It would be fine if he had a thin nature, but he had a wife and children. Oh yes, he even has to die, because there is a cornucopia in which children cannot be raised.
Seeing that Wu Mourning agreed.
Shen Tianhe invited him into the backyard.
In the backyard, Wu Mourning saw the friend Shen Tianhe said before, this person was actually Pang Yi, the red spearman who had been on the Yushan Road before, doing the things of a ranger, and angrily killing the squire of copper smelting.
What a bonus!
For more than a month, Wu Mian had not received any news from the Red Spearman, and he had also mentioned it to Mei Fuzi and Captain Han Qi, but he put it down without any useful information.
I didn't expect to meet inadvertently in the Shen family.
The red-faced man was also overjoyed to see Wu Mourning, and directly patted each other's shoulders happily and sat down to talk in detail.
