Chapter 368: Dongcang Messenger
Although the result was a little embarrassing, Song Yushan already understood where the spirit of the stone dog came from, so there was no need to stay here for a long time.
She looked at Mrs. Zhou, thinking that her living situation did not seem to be very good, so she took out a silver ingot as her reward for helping to guide the way.
Mrs. Zhou didn't accept it, but bowed down to her:
"The old body has no days to live, only one thing is over, and I dare not die here, so I gritted my teeth and persevered to this day."
Song Yu made good use of the qi observation technique to see that the old man had really reached the time when the oil lamp was exhausted, and there was only one breath left.
I'm afraid that there is really something in my heart, so I hold this breath and live until now.
I was a little moved, so I asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Please ask the Immortal Master to save the Dongcang envoy and take him out of here!" Mrs. Zhou pleaded.
"Who is the Dongcang envoy?" Song Yushan felt that this name was so weird, what kind of nickname was it?
"I don't know who it is." Mrs. Zhou gave an even more inexplicable answer: "I have only seen him in my dreams, and he is an old fairy with white hair." ”
"In a dream? Old immortals? "Song Yushan doesn't think she's a fairy, why do the gods need her to save her?
This looks like a ghost in a dream, isn't it the fate of ghosts?
Mrs. Zhou shook her head:
"Ghosts don't have such powers. He should be a demon, or a good demon! ”
Mrs. Zhou talked about her experience with a look of reminiscence:
"I lost my son when I was young, and I lost my husband in middle age.
When I was old, I only had a dilapidated house to shelter from the wind and rain, and most of the time, I relied on the help of my fellow villagers and neighbors and even begged for a living.
One day, I was alone in the house when I heard someone say to me, 'You are so pathetic, let me help you!' ’
When I didn't see anyone, I was very alarmed.
But the voice told me not to be afraid, saying that I had 200 yuan at the head of my bed, and asked me to take it to buy rice and cook.
I went to the bedside to look for it, and found that it was really rich.
I asked him who he was, and he only said that his name was the Emissary of Dongcang, and that he had come specifically to help poor people like me.
The money allowed me to survive that winter.
He did help me, and I slowly stopped being afraid of him.
From then on, he often sent me things.
Sometimes it's rice, sometimes it's money.
There aren't many things, just enough to last a day or two.
But when it runs out, he will send it in time.
Occasionally, a few pieces of clothing would be delivered, but they were just plain cloth, not very beautiful, but I was able to keep them from hunger and cold.
I was so grateful for his kindness that I wanted to thank him in person.
He said that he was formless, but he was willing to show me in his dreams.
That night, I dreamed of him, and he was kind and kind-eyed, like an old fairy.
Since then, I have been blessed by him, and my life has been much better.
After a few years, I heard that the wealthy people in the village often lost things.
Every time I lose something, I get a gift from the messenger.
It was then that I learned that the messenger was stealing from someone else's house to help me.
But instead of stopping it, they pretended not to know and carefully covered it up outside, trying to maintain the status quo.
So much so that later, a neighbor wondered that I was no longer begging, and peeked into my house and found what I had lost, which caused the whole thing to be exposed.
So people say, I'm right to steal, and that's true.
After the incident was exposed, everyone was very angry with me, and people who lost my things came to my house to trouble me, saying that I had stolen things and wanted to send me to the government.
At this time, the envoy of Dongcang spoke.
He said, 'What is her sin?' I'm the one who stole it!
Why can't you give a portion to the poor when your family is rich, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you have more than you have to make up for what you have short? If you are entangled like this again, don't blame me for being polite! ’
As soon as the words fell, countless pieces of rubble and stones flew towards those people.
They were so frightened that they fled.
Although he helped me out of the siege, he also exposed his existence because of it.
He is not a god, but a monster hidden in the village.
The news spread quickly.
More and more people come to my house to watch the excitement.
If others are polite, the Dongcang envoy is also polite.
If someone else speaks a bad word, he will always be hit with a tile.
And he only listened to me, and when I said not to fight, he stopped throwing.
Although the Dongcang envoy stole other people's things to help me, he really knew how to be polite and had no intention of harming others.
Once, a showman came to my residence on the pleasure of drinking, and scolded him for being a demon and a fool of himself, and insulted him for a long time, but the messenger did not react.
When I asked him, he said, 'Naxiu is a student of the sages, and he should avoid it in a righteous sense, and if he is drunk, he should not bother with him.'
Later, Naxiu heard about it and came to insult him again, but this time, the Dongcang envoy did not spare him and smashed him with tiles.
The messenger said, 'If you curse for no reason, you will go too far once, and if you come again, he will be the one who is wronged, and I will only fight against the unreasonable!' ’
Although he is a monster, he has never taken the initiative to hurt others, and he has helped me without asking for anything in return, he is polite and moderate, and he is really a good demon.
It's just that the villagers think he is a scourge, and they have already sent someone to Yunlong Mountain to ask the immortal master to arrest him!
The immortal masters of Yunlong Mountain can slay demons and eliminate demons, and tracking monsters is even more unique.
I asked the Dongcang envoy to run, but he said that his demonic power was low, and he couldn't outrun the immortal master of Yunlong Mountain.
I was full of remorse, I was greedy at the beginning, but I didn't expect to kill my benefactor.
Fortunately, at this time, the Dongcang envoy said that he smelled the breath of a powerful monster. ”
When Mrs. Zhou said this, she glanced at Jin Da before she bowed her head and pleaded with Song Yushan:
"Immortal Master, you are accompanied by monsters, and the monsters must be different from the monks next to you, please save the Dongcang envoy!
If it falls into the hands of the immortal master of Yunlong Mountain, he will definitely die as an envoy from Dongcang.
He is really a good demon, stealing things, and also looking at me as an old man, begging for a living, poor and pitiful, I hurt him! ”
Song Yushan suddenly realized.
It turned out that Uncle Jin found her because of Uncle Jin, Uncle Jin's method of collecting breath is very good, but it has no effect on demons, so it is so easy to detect.
After hearing this, she became curious about this demon.
It sounds like a mortal demon who has not yet been transformed, but he can speak and have compassion for people.
Although the means of helping others are too rough and there is a suspicion of generosity to others, listening to Mrs. Zhou, she really has no selfish intentions.
If it is really as Mrs. Zhou said, it is indeed a bit unjust to be killed by the monk because of this.
It is wrong, but sin is not unto death.
However, I can't listen to Mrs. Zhou's words about this matter, and I have to investigate.
"Get up, old man! Let's go back to the village first, and if things are as you say, I won't sit idly by! ”
