Volume 1 The Road to Enlightenment Chapter 79 The Final Story
The Taoist priest asked again, "Has a stranger ever been here?" Wang Sheng replied: "I went to the Qingdi Temple early in the morning to invite you, I really don't know, I can go back and ask." “
Jiro went for a while, and then came back and said, "Sure enough, someone came, and in the morning an old woman came and wanted to be a servant in my house, and my wife left her behind, and she is still at home." “
The Taoist priest said, "It's this ghost." "Immediately go with Erlang.
The Taoist priest stood in the middle of the courtyard with a wooden sword in his hand, and shouted: "Bold evil ghost, quickly return my flies!" The old woman was frightened in the house, and was about to flee away, when the Taoist priest chased after her, and knocked her to the ground with a sword, and the human skin fell off with a clatter, and immediately reduced to a demon, lying on the ground and howling like a pig.
The Taoist priest slashed its head with a wooden sword, and the ghost instantly turned into smoke and swirled on the ground. The Taoist priest took out a gourd, pulled out the stopper, put the gourd in the smoke, and sucked all the smoke into the gourd in the blink of an eye. The Taoist priest plugged the mouth of the gourd, put the gourd away and put it into a bag. Everyone went to see the human skin, and the eyebrows, eyes, hands and feet were very complete.
The Taoist priest rolled up the human skin like a scroll and put it away, and was about to say goodbye and leave, when Chen knelt at the door, crying and begging the Taoist priest to let him save her husband. The Taoist priest was powerless to refuse. Chen cried even more sadly, and fell to the ground unable to get up.
The Taoist priest pondered for a moment and said, "My spells are too shallow, and I really can't bring the dead back to life. I will point you to a man who may be able to save your husband, and you will be rewarded if you ask him. Chan asked, "Who is it?" The Taoist priest said, "There is a madman on the street who often sleeps in dung. Try to ask him, and if he wants to go mad and insult you, don't be angry. “
Jiro also knew that there was such a person. So he said goodbye to the Taoist priest and went to the street with his sister-in-law to find it.
They saw a beggar singing on the road, with a snot three feet long, covered with filth that made it impossible to approach. Chen knelt forward, and the beggar smiled and asked, "Does the beauty love me?" Chan explained to him why. The beggar laughed again and said, "Everyone can be a husband, so what's the use of reviving him?" Chan persisted in pleading.
The beggar said, "How strange it is! When a man dies and begs me to save him, am I the king of Hades?" After saying that, he angrily hit Chen with a cane. Chan endured the pain and humiliation with tears in his eyes. The lively people on the street gradually gathered, and it became a human wall around it.
The beggar coughed up phlegm and saliva, put it to Chen's mouth, and said, "Eat it!" Chen's face flushed, but she remembered the Taoist priest's instructions, so she swallowed it forcibly. All she could do was think that the thing had gotten into her throat like a lump of cotton wool, and it was falling down, and then it was stuck in her chest and didn't move.
The beggar laughed and said, "The beauty is in love with me!" After saying that, he got up and walked away without even looking back. They followed him and went into the temple to ask him again, but they did not know where he was. They searched the temple and left him, but there was no sign of him.
Chen returned home in great shame, feeling sorry for her husband's tragic death, and recalling that he had devoured the phlegm and saliva of a beggar in front of everyone on the street.
She was about to wipe off the blood and collect the body into the coffin, when her family stood and watched, and no one dared to come to her. Chen hugged the corpse and collected his intestines, crying bitterly as he cleaned up. When I cried hoarsely, I suddenly wanted to vomit, but I felt that the mass of things that had stopped in my chest rushed straight up, and I vomited out, and before I could look at it, the thing had fallen into my husband's chest.
She was surprised to see that it was a human heart, which had been "thumping" in her husband's chest, and the heat was steaming like smoke. Chen was very surprised, so she hurriedly put her hands on her husband's chest and squeezed it together.
As soon as she let go, the heat came out of the cracks. So she tore off the silk cloth and tied her husband's ribcage tightly. She touched the corpse with her hand again, and she felt slowly warm. Then she put the quilt on her again, and when she lifted it in the middle of the night, she saw that she was breathing.
At dawn the next day, the husband finally came back to life. As soon as he woke up, he said, "I was in a trance, like in a dream, and I only felt a dull pain in my stomach." Then they looked at the place where the belly had been torn, and it was already a scab the size of a copper coin, and it was soon completely healed.
As soon as the picture turned, the heavens and the earth began to change in an instant, as if the Night Wandering God had comprehended, and Tianxuan could feel that the world shaped with his own power was being mixed with the power of the Night Wandering God.
Nezha wanted to speak, but was stopped by Tianxuan, and now is not the time, so he can only wait for what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the night wandering god, and what does he mean.
Suddenly, the heavens and the earth returned, and the light of the dim world instantly surpassed the first two rays, and the night wandering god dived into it without saying a word.
Tianxuan and Nezha had no choice but to follow closely.
I saw that the Night Wanderer God had established another world, and this world was more complete than the previous world.
Wendeng, a scholar surnamed Zhou, and a scholar surnamed Cheng read and wrote on the same desk when they were young, and became confidants and friends. Chengsheng's family is poor and relies on Zhou Sheng for help all year round. Zhou Sheng is older than Cheng Sheng, so Cheng Sheng calls Zhou Sheng's wife sister-in-law. I go to visit every New Year's holiday, like a family.
Later, Zhou Sheng's wife died of a sudden illness after giving birth to a child, and Zhou Sheng then married a stepwife, Wang. Because Cheng Sheng's new sister-in-law was younger than himself, he never asked Zhou Sheng to let him see her.
One day, Wang's younger brother came to visit his sister, and Zhou Sheng held a banquet in the bedroom. It happened that Chengsheng came, and the servant came to report, and Zhou Sheng sat at the banquet and ordered someone to invite him in.
If you don't advance, you have to leave. Zhou Sheng moved the banquet to the outside room and chased Cheng Sheng back. As soon as he sat down, someone came to report that a servant in the manor had been severely beaten by the county magistrate. The reason is that there was a cattle herder in the Huang Officials' family, and when he stepped on the Zhou family's field while herding the cattle, the two servants quarreled and abused.
The Huang family went back to herd the cattle and told the master, and the servants of the Zhou family were arrested and sent to the official, so they were beaten hard. When Zhou Sheng heard this, he scolded angrily: "How dare Huang, a pig slave, do this! His predecessor is a slave of my ancestor, and as soon as he got his will, there was no one in his eyes!" Zhou was angry and his chest was full of anger, and he got up angrily to find the Huang family.
Cheng Sheng held him down and stopped, saying: "In the world of tyranny and violence, there is no indiscriminate in the first place! Besides, half of today's government is a bandit who does not fly flags!" Zhou Sheng did not listen, and Cheng Sheng persuaded him again and again, so that he shed tears, and Zhou Sheng barely endured it.
However, Zhou Sheng's anger could not be eliminated, and he did not fall asleep after tossing and turning all night, and said to his family: "The Huang family bullied us and is our enemy, not to mention, the county official is the official of the imperial court, not the official of a powerful family, even if there is a dispute between them, the two families should also be confronted, why not follow and bark like a horn dog? I will also go to sue his servants and see what the county official does with them?"
His family also encouraged him, so he wrote a submission and sent it to the county government. However, the county magistrate only took a look at it and tore it up and threw it into the ground. Zhou was very angry, and said a few unpleasant words in passing, offending the county official. The county magistrate was annoyed and angry, so he arrested Zhou Sheng.
After breakfast that day, Cheng Sheng went to find Zhou Sheng again, only to learn that Zhou Sheng went to the county seat to file a complaint. He hurriedly chased after him to persuade him, but Zhou Sheng was already in prison. He was so anxious that he stomped his foot and had nothing to do.
At this time, the government was arresting three pirates. The county officials and the Huang Officials used money to buy off the pirates, let them fabricate that Zhou Sheng was a member of the party, and then, based on false testimony, removed Zhou Sheng's reputation and tortured him even more cruelly. Cheng Sheng came to see him, and the two hugged and cried. The two of them secretly discussed and had to file a lawsuit. Zhou Sheng said: "I am in prison, like a bird in a cage. Even if I have a younger brother in the family, he can only bring me some food, who can sue me for me?"
Cheng Sheng expressed his willingness to bear it alone, saying: "This is my responsibility, my friend is in trouble and can't give first aid, what kind of friend is it?" When Zhou Sheng's younger brother planned to send him the passage fee, he had already gone far.
When Chengsheng arrived in the capital, he had no way to complain, and when he was in a hurry, he heard a rumor that the emperor was going out of the city to hunt. Chengsheng is hidden in the wood market. After a short stay, the emperor's brigade passed by. Cheng Sheng lay on the ground and shouted loudly, the emperor asked the reason, approved his petition, told him to wait, and approved his petition to the ministry and ordered the ministry to review and play.
At this time, it has been more than ten months since Zhou Sheng was imprisoned, and Zhou Sheng has already been tortured, tortured, and convicted. The officials of the ministry were very frightened when they received the emperor's royal approval and planned to review it in person. The Huang family was also very scared when they found out, so they planned to secretly murder Zhou Sheng. First of all, the prison guards who bought off the prison did not give Zhou Sheng food.
Zhou Sheng's younger brother came to deliver the meal and did not let them meet. Cheng Sheng went to the ministry to cry out for grievances, and the ministry was arraigned. At this time, Zhou Sheng was so hungry that he couldn't stand up. When the palace officials saw this, they were furious and ordered the jailer to be beaten to death. The Huang Ministry was even more afraid, so he took a few thousand taels of silver to intercede for him. The officials of the ministry were sloppy and exempted the Yellow Officials from the crime. The county magistrate was sentenced to exile for perverting the law.
Zhou Sheng was released, and he became more and more grateful to Chengsheng. After this lawsuit, Chengsheng is also disgusted with the world. Therefore, he discussed with Zhou Sheng to live in seclusion together. However, because Zhou Sheng had a young wife, he couldn't bear to leave, and he kept smiling and prevaricating. Cheng Sheng saw that Zhou's ecological degree was unknown, although he didn't say anything, he was determined to leave.
After the two separated, Cheng Sheng did not come to Zhou Sheng for several days. Zhou Sheng sent someone to Chengsheng's house to inquire, and Chengjia still thought that he was in Zhou's house. Chengsheng couldn't be found in either place, so I knew that Chengsheng was gone.
Zhou Sheng understood in his heart, and hurriedly sent people to look everywhere, all the temples and valleys near and far were searched, but there was still no trace of Chengsheng. Zhou Sheng had to often send money and food to Cheng's son to help the family live.
After another eight or nine years of work, Chengsheng suddenly came back by himself. He wears a yellow crown on his head and wears a big coat, looking like a fairy wind bone. When Zhou Sheng saw it, he was very affectionate, and grabbed Cheng Sheng's arm and said, "Where have you been, let's look everywhere?" Cheng Sheng smiled and said: "Lonely Cloud Wild Crane, how can there be a certain place? Zhou Sheng hurriedly ordered his family to set up a banquet to entertain him, and after a few polite words, Zhou Sheng urged Cheng Sheng to change into his clothes.
Cheng Sheng only smiled and did not speak. Zhou Sheng said: "You are so stupid! Why don't you want your wife and children and throw them away like old shoes?" Cheng Sheng replied with a smile: "No! It was someone else who abandoned me, where did I abandon others?" Zhou Sheng asked Cheng Sheng where he lived, and Cheng Sheng said that he was in the Qing Palace in Laoshan.
