Volume 1: The Road to Enlightenment, Chapter 74: Viewing the World
Looking at the souls who had just been reshaped into flesh, before they could react, they had been ground into meat sauce again, which was simply to a state of numbness.
This time there was nothing peculiar, Tianxuan attached the Eye of Heavenly Dao to his eyes, and explored the entire hell, and found that there was no danger.
It's just that in a hole in the air, a hole was found, and outside the hole was pitch black, only a few twinkling stars, and Tianxuan didn't know what to do for a while.
And Qi Tianxuan also found that every certain period of time, a stream of highly corrosive things would flow to the reshaped place, so that those reshaped creatures would be corrupted.
The longer he wore it, the more uneasy Tianxuan's heart became, this place was simply extremely terrifying.
"Wait a minute, it seems that this is the belly of a living being!!" Tian Xuan realized that something was wrong, this fierce beast Tian Xuan had known in the Huang Ting Sutra, and it was called Chaos.
Chaos is headless, and this fits all the layouts of this hell, and it's terrifying.
"Looks like we need to fight!" Holding the sword of the gods in his hand, he flew towards the spatial hole.
Tianxuan used the power of the Heavenly Dao to forcibly break through the space inside, and Tianxuan entered an extremely quiet place, where there was only darkness, and it was extremely quiet.
"Where is this?" Tianxuan used the Eye of Heavenly Dao to look around, and found that there was no border here, just a boundless space, but Tianxuan, who was a Heavenly Dao, did not know that space must have a boundary, but this place was too big.
Suddenly, a light lit up in front of me, and it was a world.
In this world, Tianxuan used the Eye of Heaven to see that there was a person named Wang Taichang.
The story begins when he was a child, once in bed during the day, when suddenly it became dark, thunder and lightning, and an animal a little bigger than a cat jumped on the bed and hid beside him. After a while the rain cleared, the animal was gone. Only then did he realize that it was not a cat, and he was so frightened that he called his brother from across the room. When the elder brother heard him explain the reason, he said happily: "My brother will definitely become a great official in the future, and this is the fox who came to avoid the thunderstorm." Later, he really became a jinshi at a young age, and he went from the magistrate to the county to supervise the imperial history.
Wang Taichang had a son named Yuanfeng, who was a fool, sixteen years old, and couldn't tell the difference between male and female. Just because he was stupid, no one in the village would marry his daughter to him. Mrs. Wang is often very worried.
One day, an old woman came to the door with a girl, saying that she was willing to marry the girl to the Wang family as a daughter-in-law. The girl was smiling, and she was as beautiful as a fairy in the sky. Wang Taichang's family was very happy, and asked the old woman's name, she claimed that her surname was Yu, and her daughter's name was Xiaocui, and she was sixteen years old. When the bride price was discussed, the old woman said, "This boy follows me, and he will not be full of chaff." Once I live in this high-rise house, I have a maid and a servant for her to call, and there are delicacies from the mountains and the sea for her to eat, as long as she is comfortable, I will be at ease. Isn't this selling vegetables, and you have to bargain?" Mrs. Wang was overjoyed and warmly entertained them. The old woman called her daughter to meet Wang Taichang and his wife, and said, "This is your father-in-law, and you must serve them well." I'm very busy, I'll go back for three or two days, and I'll come later. "The king often asked his servants to prepare horses for him. The old woman said that her house was not far from here, so there was no need to bother, and she went out of the door. Xiao Cui didn't show sadness and reluctance, so she rummaged through the small box she brought, ready to work. Mrs. Wang saw that she was very generous, and she liked her very much. After a few days, the old woman did not come as promised. Mrs. Wang asked where Xiaocui's family lived, but she just looked stupid, and she didn't know where her family lived and how to move. Mrs. Wang cleaned up another yard and let the young couple get married. When the relatives heard that Mrs. Wang had found a daughter from a poor family as a daughter-in-law, they couldn't help but laugh secretly. But later, when I saw that Xiaocui was smart and beautiful, I was surprised, and I never talked about anything again.
Xiaocui is very smart and can look at the faces of her in-laws, and the old couple also loves her very much, lest she think Yuanfeng is stupid. Xiao Cui talked and laughed, as if she didn't care. It's just that Xiaocui loves to play too much, and often sews cloth into a ball, kicks and plays, puts on small leather shoes, and kicks dozens of steps away, tricking Yuanfeng to run to pick it up. Yuanfeng and the maids ran around, often tired and sweaty. One day, Wang Taichang happened to pass by, and the ball flew in mid-air, and with a slap, it hit his face. Xiaocui and the maids hurriedly slipped away, and Yuanfeng ran over to pick it up stupidly. Tai often was furious, picked up a stone and threw it at it, and hit his son. Yuanfeng lay on the ground crying and making trouble. Mrs. Wang often returned to the room and told Mrs. what had happened, and Mrs. came over and reprimanded Xiao Cui. Xiao Cui didn't care at all, she lowered her head and smiled, and scratched her fingers around the edge of the bed. After the lady left, she was still messing around, smearing rouge powder on Yuanfeng's face, painting it colorful, like a flower-faced ghost. When Mrs. saw it, she was very angry and asked Xiao Cui to scold angrily. Xiao Cui leaned against the table and played with her clothes, not afraid or silent. Mrs. had no choice but to take out her son's anger and beat Yuanfeng to cry and scream, Xiaocui's face changed and she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Madame was deflated, dropped her stick and walked out.
Xiaocui helped Gongzi to the bedroom, dusted off his clothes for him, wiped the tears on his face with a handkerchief, and gave him red dates and millet seeds to eat. Yuanfeng stopped crying and became happy again. Xiao Cui closed the door, dressed up Yuanfeng as the overlord of Chu, put on gorgeous clothes, tied his waist very thinly, dressed as Yu Ji, and danced lightly. Sometimes he dressed up as the king of the desert, put a pheasant feather on his head, and held a pipa in his hand, and played it non-stop, and the room was full of laughter. All day long, always. Wang Taichang couldn't bear to blame and complain about Xiaocui too much because his son was stupid, and even if he heard it occasionally, he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
In the same alley as Wang's house, there is still a Wang Zhizhi, and there are only a dozen families in between, but Wang Taichang and Wang Zhizhi have always been at odds. At that time, it was the triennial official assessment, and Wang was jealous that Wang Taichang had made Henan Daotai, and wanted to find an opportunity to plot it. Wang Taichang knew about it, and he was very anxious, but he couldn't think of a way to deal with it.
One night, Mrs. Wang often went to bed early. Xiaocui put on the clothes of the Taiguan Dynasty, dressed up as a secretary of the ministry, cut some white velvet to make a beard and put it on, and asked the two maids to put on green clothes and pretend to be officials, and secretly took out the horse from the stable, saying that it was "going to meet Mr. Wang". When he came to the gate of the king's counsel, he whipped his servants with his horse, and said, "I want to see the king's servants, and who wants to see what the king gives him!" When he arrived at the door of his house, the porter thought that it was really the official department who was coming, and hurriedly ran to the upper room to report to Wang Taichang. Wang Taichang hurriedly got up and went out to greet him, only to know that his daughter-in-law had made a big joke. Mrs. Wang was so angry that her face turned pale, and she flicked her sleeves back to the room, and said to her wife: "People are looking for our fault and want to rectify our family, which is good, but the daughter-in-law has made such an ugly thing, and our family is about to suffer!" Mrs. was also very angry, and ran to the small cui room, reprimanding and scolding. Xiao Cui just giggled and didn't tell the difference. Beat her, you can't bear to do it, and divorce her, and be homeless. The couple regretted it in every way and didn't sleep well all night.
At this time, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice was impartial and prominent, and he was dressed exactly the same as Xiaocui's dress that day. Therefore, Wang Zhizhi also thought that it was really a book of officials, and repeatedly sent people to Wang Taichang's door to inquire about the news. After waiting for the middle of the night, he didn't see the official secretary come out, and he suspected that the official department and Wang Taichang were discussing some confidential matters. The next morning, Wang Xiang saw Wang Taichang and asked, "Did Shangshu visit the mansion last night?" Wang Taichang thought that he was deliberately sarcastic, and his face was full of shame, but he only answered two "yes" words in a low voice. Wang became more and more suspicious, and from then on he did not dare to plot against Wang Taichang, but tried his best to befriend him. Mrs. Wang often found out the inside story and was secretly happy, but she still privately told her wife to persuade Xiaocui not to mess around anymore in the future. Xiao Cui also smiled and agreed.
A year later, the prime minister of the DPRK and China was dismissed. It happened that someone wrote a private letter to Wang Taichang and mistakenly sent it to Wang Zhi's house. When the king was overjoyed, he first entrusted a man with whom he had a constant friendship with the king, and used this as a threat to borrow 10,000 taels of silver from him. Wang Taichang refused. The king gave advice and came to the door to talk in person. Mrs. Wang was often busy looking for official clothes, but she couldn't find them. The king waited for a while, thinking that the king was too often on a shelf, deliberately slack, and was about to leave angrily, when he suddenly saw Yuanfeng wearing the emperor's dragon robe crown, and a woman pushed him out from the door. The king was startled when he saw it, smiled pretendly, comforted his son, took off his clothes, and handed them over to the servants to take away. By the time Wang Taichang came out, the guests had already left.
When Wang Taichang learned of the reason, he was immediately frightened, his face was like dirt, and he cried out: "What a disaster! Xiao Cui already knew, closed the door tightly, listened to their scolding, and ignored everything. Mrs. Wang often saw this scene, and even added fuel to the fire, picking up an axe to split the door. At this time, Xiao Cui smiled in the door and persuaded her father-in-law: "Daddy, don't be angry, with me, all kinds of punishments will naturally be borne by me, and I will not implicate your second elder." Daddy wants to kill me, is this trying to kill people?" Wang Taichang heard that it made sense, so he threw down the axe.
The king admonished back, and sure enough, he played the emperor and exposed that the king often rebelled, as evidenced by the dragon robe and crown. The emperor opened it in surprise and saw that the so-called crown was made of sorghum straw, and the dragon robe was a shabby yellow cloth wrapper. The emperor got angry and blamed the king for framing good people. The emperor called Yuanfeng again, and when he saw it, it turned out to be an idiot. The emperor smiled: "Can such a fool be the emperor?" and handed it over to the legal department to take care of. The king also accused Wang Taichang of having demons in his house. The magistrates took the servants of the royal family into custody for interrogation, and everyone said, "How can there be a demon? There is only a crazy daughter-in-law and a demented son, who are just playing around all day." The same is true of the neighbors. The case was only decided, and the king was sentenced to give false accusations and confiscate the army in Yunnan. From then on, Mrs. Wang often felt that Xiaocui was very unusual, and because her mother never returned, she wondered if her daughter-in-law was a fairy! Xiao Cui just laughed and said a word. Mrs. asked again and again, Xiaocui covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I am the biological daughter of the Jade Emperor, doesn't my mother know yet?"
