Chapter 249: The Chu Family
Piao Ranzi stepped forward, "Leng Ran, Yi Ran, why are you on this Yin Mountain?"
Chu Lengran was as his name suggested, looking at him coldly, with a complicated expression on his face. Chu Yiran jumped forward and grabbed Chu Piaoran's arm, "Brother Piaoran, I really didn't expect that we would meet here."
Before Piao Ranzi could ask again, there were shouts of bulls and horses in the distance: "Chu Piaoran Chu Shengjun, where are you? Did the tiger hurt you?"
Piao Ranzi was just about to speak, Chu Yiran pointed at herself, waved her hand at Piao Ranzi, and whispered: "You sue them, beat away the tiger, go down the mountain in a while, let them go to the foot of the mountain and wait." ”
"Niu Dashuai, Ma Dashuai" Piaoranzi carried his internal force and shouted: "The tiger was beaten away by me, I will go down the mountain, the mountain is dangerous, you go to the bottom of the mountain and wait for me"
"Oh, come down quickly," the bull shouted.
"On this mountain, the yin qi is too heavy, we are not good at flying, so we will wait for you in the garden at the foot of the mountain first," Ma Mian shouted.
"Got it, I'll be back in a moment" Piao Ranzi finished shouting, and replied with no cow head and horse face, and asked Chu Yiran again: "Why are you here?
"Hmph, Chu Piaoran, do you still have the face to ask?Back then, in the Yang world, the whole clan came here because of you" Chu stared at Chu Piaoran coldly.
"King Jizo Bodhisattva is right. Chu Yiran said: "Brother Piaoran has become a god and Buddha." This is not a place to speak, you go with us."
When Chu Yiran said to go, it was actually flying. The three of them flew through the jungle to the top of the hill and landed on a large mulberry tree, with lush branches and a canopy like a large umbrella, sticking out of the cliff.
"This is our lookout. Chu Yiran said, "We are here, looking down, and when we encounter ghosts going up the mountain, we will expel them." ”
Piao Ranzi turned around the tree, a mountain rock, spread among the branches, down to the foot of the mountain, he looked carefully, the cow head, the horse face two ant-like villains, are walking towards the back garden of the Dongchang Mansion.
"How do you recognize me?" Piao Ranzi suddenly remembered that his body belonged to the Taoist priest of Lingshan Ancient Cave, and he didn't know how they could recognize it.
"If it were somewhere else, we wouldn't have recognized you. Chu Yiran smiled and said: "But this Yin Mountain is different, when you get to the mountain, you can manifest the form of a Yin God and a ghost, and you, the body of the Yin God is full of light, I call away the tiger, it depends on your familiarity, right? ”
Chu Lengran snorted, representing a positive answer.
"I see. Piao Ranzi sighed. "Okay, let's talk about our family, my mother, that is, your eldest mother, what happened since I left?"
"Let me ask you first, where have you been for more than a thousand years? Chu Yiran stared at Chu Piaoran with both eyes, her eyes were a little red, and Chu Lengran snorted again.
"Didn't I scatter all the money and scatter the gold leaves on the head of the woman in the boat? Piaoranzi said. "But I waited for Guanyin Bodhisattva. She asked me if I really wanted to marry the woman in the boat, and I said that it was only for the sake of repairing the bridge and scattering silver, and I would listen to her respect. Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded and said yes, and said to me, 'You have done boundless good deeds, and the good results are extraordinary, and I will take you to the Western Heaven Elysium.' I said my parents were here, and I didn't travel far. Guanyin Bodhisattva said karma, I can't help it, and I went to a good place, like a free tour, just like that, sent my soul to the westward road, I don't want to, the general trend to the Bodhisattva then flew over, and returned the body to me. In this way, when I arrived at the Pure Land of Bliss Tibetan Sutra Hall, I was deceived by Amitabha Buddha and lived for a thousand years. ”
"Brother Piaoran, then why did you get here again?" Chu Yiran asked again.
"I waited for a thousand days and nights in the Tibetan Scripture Hall, thinking that three years were over, but who knew that a thousand years had passed" Piaoranzi thought about the past. "I thought I would be able to go home tomorrow, but I met a five-colored light demon, which destroyed my body and destroyed the yang god. Thanks to the Great Trend Bodhisattva and Medicine Buddha, I was given the Ancient Eye Bead and cultivated into the divine body of a yin ghost. I escaped from the Leiyin Temple, and met the ancient cave on the road, and a Taoist priest gave me this skin, and the gods and Buddhas sent me out of the ancient cave and let me return to the east. landed in Shucheng first, became the acting city god, and later went out on patrol, saw the filial son dissecting his heart, remembered Shuicheng's hometown and my mother, and said goodbye in the middle of the night. Returned to the water city, the personnel were different, the old place revisited, met the goblin in the splendid pavilion, and later landed in Huizhou, and saw someone play the monk to save the mother, and wanted to find my mother in the underworld. I happened to meet two handsome men with a bull head and a horse face, and they also came to patrol me, so I followed them to the underworld. After many inquiries, I learned that the future affairs of my mother and relatives were all handled by the Bodhisattva of the King of Jizo. Only when you meet him can you ask the reason. ”
"What are you doing in the mountains?" Chu Yiran asked.
"I'm in the Dating Palace, killed the Great White Ghost King, was named the Holy Monarch of Civil and Military Affairs by the Emperor Xudu, and praised the official three-day parade, today is the last day, passing by the Yinshan Ghost Mansion, and I will go to the Dating Palace tomorrow. Piaoranzi said. "Tell me about you, where is my mother and her old man?"
"Hmph, your mother, she ······" When Chu Lengran said this, he stomped his feet and said no more.
"Brother, this can't be all blamed for Brother Piaoran, he can't help himself, and he was deceived by the Buddha's head, and after coming back, he went through all the hardships and returned to his hometown to visit, it's not that he doesn't have a heart, so don't complain about him. Chu Yiran said coldly to Chu.
Piao Ranzi heard Yiran's cousin say this, and guessed that after he left home, there must have been an accident in his family and clan, which may have been caused by himself, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed of his mother and relatives.
"Brother Piaoran, don't be sad. Chu Yiran said. "You hit the girl in white on the bank of the Huishui River, hit the girl in white with a piece of gold leaf, and then went to the splendid pavilion to discuss marriage, which spread throughout the water city at that time, and my father and cousin and other clansmen, went to the pavilion to look for you, and you have already sat down - no snort. When they saw that you were dead, they were in a hurry, and begged the onlookers to scatter to look for the girl in white, and the clipper, the old fisherman, and the girl in white were gone. Just as everyone is panicking, your body suddenly rises, rises into the air, and floats towards the west. So people talked about it, saying that you became a Buddha in the flesh and went to the Western Heavens. ”
"This may be the Great Trend Bodhisattva, sending my body from behind. Piaoranzi said. "And then?"
"When my father and uncle came to your house and saw the eldest mother, they didn't dare to hide it, and told the eldest mother what you did on the bank of the Huishui River, as well as the ascension of the body. The eldest lady and her old man listened to it and fainted three times. When Chu Yiran said this, she looked at Chu Piaoran with tears in her eyes.
"It's all because I'm not filial, so my mother misses it. Piaoranzi's eyes were wet.
"The uncles comforted the eldest lady and said that since you have become a Buddha, you may be able to come back soon. Chu Yiran continued. "Who would have thought that a few days later, a group of strongmen came, saying that your family's real estate and land have been sold, and they have your family's title deeds and house deeds. The patriarch Uncle Chu Deshan came forward to mediate, but the group of people did not follow, and Uncle Chu knew that he could not win the lawsuit, so he had to ask the eldest mother to go to his house to live temporarily. Within a few days, your mother was gone—for no apparent reason. ”
"Ah, is my mother dead or alive?" Piao Ranzi exclaimed.
"Listen to me. Chu Yiran said. "The terrible thing is still to come. Within two days, a group of people came, holding your family's share diploma in our family, asking the patriarch of Chu Deshan for share money, they held the diploma in black and white, the Chu family's tea and silk shop, had to be at their mercy, within a few days, the closure of the Zhang, the shop pù out of the plate, the whole family's business, wiped out, the whole family of hundreds of people, first dismissed the family members, servants, and then bought a house, sold land. Struggling to get by. That year, I was only eleven years old, and I also tasted the hardships of a poor family." V
