Chapter 444 The mantis stalks the cicada 【Congratulations, you successfully helped Uncle Jiu obtain the status of the God of Travel. 】 【Congratulations, you have once again achieved the achievement of ‘deep filial piety’, and will be rewarded with 2,000 filial piety points. 】 【Your current filial piety balance is: 2191 points. 】 Shao Qing, the moment he turned around, three lines of system characters suddenly flashed before his eyes. Qin Yao paused, and a smile appeared on his face that was released from the bottom of his heart. Very good, just as he expected, the achievement of profound filial piety is not a one-time achievement. Ten thousand moral virtues in exchange for two thousand filial piety may seem like a small amount of money, but in reality it is a huge profit. After all, adding a few points does not mean adding points of moral virtue. With a thought in his mind, the characters in his eyes disappeared. Qin Yao walked to the cliff and jumped down. In the blink of an eye. His tall and strong body floated lightly on the ground. Looking up, he saw the big-headed ghost in front of the mountain wall who had just unlocked his shackles.
"Who are you?" The big-headed ghost didn't sense his presence at all. It wasn't until he was about to leave that he spotted Qin Yao with his peripheral vision. "You have no right to know who I am..." Qin Yao slowly drew out his sword, and a murderous aura that shot straight into the sky instantly filled the entire valley, locking the big-headed ghost's body: "If you want to survive, just answer me honestly. question." The big-headed ghost felt chills all over his body, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. He asked fearfully: "What's the problem?" “Are you hired by Lei Gang with money, or are you just a kid who takes orders from him?” Qin Yao said quietly. The big-headed ghost’s expression remained unchanged and he said, “I don’t know any Lei Gang…” . "boom!" Qin Yao raised his hand and threw the God-cutting Sword. The long knife pierced the air and flew to the big-headed ghost like lightning. Under its horrified gaze, it instantly pierced its chest. The huge impact even sent it flying, and it was heavily wedged against the mountain wall. "Ah..." The big-headed ghost shouted in pain, holding the back of the knife tightly with both hands. “The answer is wrong, I’ll give you one last chance.” Qin Yao stepped forward slowly, his expression indifferent. “I said, I said.” The big-headed ghost roared almost like a roar: "I have an employment relationship with him. He asked me to cooperate in a play, coaxing a silly boy to learn the five ghost fortune-traveling skills... Sir, no matter what is between you and him Gratitude and resentment have nothing to do with me!” Qin Yao strode up to him, and when it was frightened and uneasy, he suddenly reached out and put his hand on its head, and forcibly used the soul-searching technique. His consciousness entered the opponent's world of consciousness, and he fast forwarded through the evil ghost's countless memories of committing crimes, and finally found a scene about Lei Gang. From the memory point of view, this guy is quite honest, and what he just said is basically true; but also from the memory point of view, in terms of the crimes this guy has committed, it is a sin to let him continue to live! With his consciousness withdrawing from the opponent's world of consciousness, Qin Yao slightly raised his palm on the head of the big-headed ghost. A white-gold fireball gradually gathered in his palm. When he lightly touched the scalp of the big-headed ghost, it suddenly turned into a raging fire and ignited. covered his entire body. Qin Yao drew out the God-Decapitating Sword, took two steps back, and watched the big-headed ghost disappear into ashes under the blazing flames. He summoned the white jade official seal with a flip of his hand to check Yin De. According to his opinion, considering the extent of the evil deeds of this big-headed ghost, he must have a hundred points of evil virtue. However, before he took the initiative to click on the details of evil virtue, he was frightened by the total amount of evil virtue floating above the official seal.
Total amount: one thousand four thousand and three points. 14003? Grass. Where did these fourty thousand come from? He opened the income details with a face full of astonishment, and the first thing that caught his eye was: Lin Fengjiao transferred 10,000 points to you. Chin Yao: “…” Even though he had already speculated in this regard, after seeing the transfer information with his own eyes, he still had mixed emotions in his heart. For a time, there was no excitement at all about spending two thousand filial piety points in vain. … After a long time, Qin Yao gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, and with a thought in his mind, he disappeared in an instant. Two days later. It is noon. Mao Xiaofang, who was dressed in a gray and white gown, was taking Xiaohai to dry herbs in the courtyard. A rickshaw suddenly stopped in front of the open door of Fuxi Hall, and a fat man with a mole on his chin stepped out of the car. “Wait for me here.” The fat man said something to the rickshaw master, then pushed up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, walked slowly into the dojo with heavy steps. In the courtyard, Mao Xiaofang, who heard the movement, raised his eyes and looked up: "Who are you looking for?" "Are you Master Mao?" The fat man cupped his fists and saluted, and asked politely. “I am Mao Xiaofang.” Mao Xiaofang nodded and said in return, “Your Excellency, are you here to see me?” The fat man took out a banknote from his arms and handed it to him respectfully: "It's a small thing, not a sign of respect." Mao Xiaofang frowned slightly and pushed back his palm: "I can't accept this gift because I have no merit and no reward. Please explain clearly why you are here." The fat man held the banknote, pondered for a moment, and said, "Mr. Yu Dachuyu should be your disciple, right?" “Ah Chu?” Mao Xiaofang was dumbfounded. From the beginning to the end, he never thought that the other party actually came for Ah Chu. “That’s right, Mr. Yu Dachu won at least a thousand yuan in the five casinos I opened.” The fat man said respectfully: "Because we heard that he was your disciple, we didn't take any action on it. But I open a casino to make money. If Mr. Yu continues to win, my family fortune will soon become his. So I came here this time to ask Master Mao to give me a chance to survive. " Mao Xiaofang: “…”
He knew that Ah Chu liked gambling, but winning a thousand yuan still shocked him. Under normal circumstances, no matter how lucky a person is, it is impossible to win them all, let alone accumulate one thousand yuan! “Master Mao, if you feel that my greeting gift is not enough, I have some more here.” The fat man took out his wallet, took out a stack of banknotes, put it on the shelf where Mao Xiaofang was drying herbs, and begged, "I just beg your disciple not to mess with me anymore." Mao Xiaofang took a deep breath and said solemnly: "In fact, I don't know anything about this matter at all! If you are willing to believe me, please go back first. After I understand this matter, I will definitely tell you An explanation.” The fat man was startled for a moment, then he took back the banknote and said quickly: "Of course I believe in Master Mao, so I'll leave first if you're busy." Watching his broad back disappear from sight, Xiao Hai swallowed hard: "Master, I think there must be some misunderstanding. How could Ah Chu win so much money?" Mao Xiaofang narrowed his eyes and murmured: "Yes, how did he win so much money?" afternoon. Wearing a brand new gown, Ah Chu hummed a tune and jumped into the dojo like a child. When he caught a glimpse of Mao Xiaofang standing in front of the main hall, he suddenly smiled and said: "Master..." “Ah Chu, come in.” Mao Xiaofang turned around and stepped into the main hall. Ah Chu was in high spirits and didn't notice anything wrong with Master's mood at all. He strode into the main hall and asked, "What's the matter, Master?" “Kneel down!” Mao Xiaofang stood in front of the statue of the ancestor that was hung up at an unknown time, facing Ah Chu, and shouted sternly. Ah Chu's heart trembled, his smile quickly faded, he knelt down on the futon obediently, raised his head and asked, "Master, what's wrong?" “What’s wrong? You don’t know what you are doing?” Mao Xiaofang shouted. Ah Chu's face turned pale and he lowered his head and said nothing. “Yu Dachu, do you still remember the three precepts of our sect?” Mao Xiaofang asked seriously. Ah Chu said guiltily: "Remember, remember..." “What three precepts?” Mao Xiaofang asked again. Achu was speechless. Mao Xiaofang's eyes turned cold, and he turned around and took out a cane from behind the pillar: "I want to ask you, what are the three precepts?" "The first commandment is to betray one's trust and deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors. The second commandment is to use evil intentions and cast spells to harm others. The third commandment is to use Taoism indiscriminately and disturb the people." Ah Chu said anxiously. “What else?” Mao Xiaofang looked indifferent. “Violator, violator…” “What about the offender?” Mao Xiaofang shouted. “Anyone who violates this rule will be expelled from the school.” Ah Chu said in fear. “Tell me, which precept did you break?” Mao Xiaofang asked.
A Chu: "Using Taoism indiscriminately and disturbing the people?" Mao Xiaofang's eyes turned cold, and he whipped Ah Chu **** the back, pulling out one kid from his body. Then he whipped the whip five times in a row, pulling out all five ghosts, and they were rolling on the ground in pain. “Are you just using Taoism indiscriminately and disturbing the people?!” Ah Chu was speechless. “From today on, you will…” “Master!” At this time, Xiao Hai rushed in from outside the door, knelt down in front of Mao Xiaofang, and interrupted his voice: "Ah Chu was just confused for a moment." "If everyone who makes a mistake says that he was confused for a while, then what's the point of having rules?" Mao Xiaofang shouted. “Master, please let Ah Chu go this time.” Xiao Hai kowtowed. A hint of bitterness appeared on Mao Xiaofang's face: "The state has national laws, and families have family rules." Ah Chu's heart trembled, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Mao Xiaofang, but his eyes were extremely unfamiliar. “Junior brother.” Lei Gang was suddenly helped into the main hall by Lei Xiu and called in a low voice. “Senior brother.” Mao Xiaofang greeted him. "It's true that the state has national laws and family rules, but I believe A Chu has good intentions. Just like Xiao Hai said, he was just confused for a moment. Why don't you give him a chance." Lei Gang said sincerely. Ah Chu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Lei Gang, a warm current surged in his heart. Just because he did something wrong, the master beat and scolded him, and even expelled him from the school, which was ruthless. But at this critical moment, the uncle stepped forward and interceded for him. How could he not be grateful and excited? “Senior brother,” Mao Xiaofang frowned and said, “If we can’t deal with it strictly, then where can we set the rules?” “Speaking harshly, speaking harshly.” Lei Gang waved his hands repeatedly and said: "If you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There is no greater good. Ah Chu, do you know your mistakes?" "I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong." Ah Chu hugged Mao Xiaofang's legs and said loudly: "Master, I know I was wrong. Please don't drive me away." In fact, the reason why he stayed in Fuxi Hall shamelessly was not entirely because of the relationship between master and disciple, but more because he had a clear understanding of himself. A Chu from Fuxi Hall is a respected mage in the town. Yu Dachu, who left Fuxi Hall, no longer had the qualifications to be superior to others. No matter how much money he had, it would be difficult to keep it in the end. Not to mention, only by staying in Fuxi Hall can you have the opportunity to come into contact with Xuanmen Taoism. In the future, you can use Fuxi Hall as a springboard and use the Maoshan Platform to move towards a higher and larger world... In the courtyard. Qin Yao looked at this scene indifferently. He knew that from now on, Yu Dachu's loyalty no longer lies with Mao Xiaofang. Once the situation changes and the other party needs to choose between Mao and Lei, today's scene will turn into a needle and penetrate deeply. Yu Dachu's heart drove him to devote himself to Lei Gang! Years of master-disciple friendship are not as good as one helping. Is this an exaggeration?
Very exaggerated. Is it common? also very common. How many brothers have shared weal and woe, just because one thing went against their purpose? Even... just because of a woman! The human heart is so cold. If a good person does ten thousand good things, others will only take it for granted. But if he does one bad thing, it will immediately become the source of disintegration... Many times, there is no straw that breaks the camel’s back? Often once a crack appears, it is doomed to a broken ending! Qin Yao has a clear understanding of the current situation, but has no idea of putting out the fire at this moment. Let the bullets fly a little longer... “That’s it, that’s it.” In the main room, Mao Xiaofang hesitated for a long time, and finally threw the cane to the ground and said: "Ah Chu, kill these five little devils yourself and abolish the magic. I will spare you today. But what happens next? This time, it’s useless no matter who pleads for you, do you hear me clearly?” “Listen clearly, Master!” Ah Chu was cruel, picked up the rattan that Mao Xiaofang had thrown on the ground, and beat the five little devils hard, killing them alive, and his heart became heavier. "Also, send back all the money you earned. We will never keep any ill-gotten gains or ill-gotten gains." Mao Xiaofang said again. If beating the five brats to death made Ah Chu feel heavy, then asking him to send the banknotes back was tearing out his heart. But at this moment, he did not dare to refute at all. He could only nodded silently and accepted the matter. “Go.” Mao Xiaofang waved his hand. Ah Chu put the cane on the table and strode out of the main hall. “Junior brother, you are too harsh.” Lei Gang sighed. Mao Xiaofang was helpless: "I am now the head of Fuxi Hall, so I cannot let the ancestor down." Leigang shook his head, not knowing what he meant, but he didn't speak anymore. A few days later. Late night. Lei Gang stood on a hilltop, looking at the brightly lit town in the distance. He took a white cloth bag from his waist and opened it towards the town. “Huh…ha.” "Huh." "Hahaha."
… With all kinds of scalp-numbing laughter, green lights flew out of the bag and rushed towards the town one after another. . After putting away the ghosts in the bag, Lei Gang suddenly pulled up the mouth of the bag, and his body disappeared in an instant... Early morning the next day. A large group of people gathered together and knocked on the door of Fuxi Hall. When they saw Mao Xiaofang, they immediately started talking like a group of ducks communicating. Emerged in this situation early in the morning, Mao Xiaofang's brain hurt from the noise, and he waved his hands vigorously: "Folks, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, speak slowly, one by one." “Master Mao, we are in trouble. This morning I opened the door and saw a **** handprint on the door. I thought it was some naughty kid’s prank, but who would have thought that many people in the neighborhood had **** fingerprints on their doorsteps, and that’s not how the prank was played. "An old man wearing a double-breasted black shirt said first. "Yes, yes, I think it is most likely caused by ghosts. Master Mao, you must protect us." An aunt said loudly. “Take me to see it.” Mao Xiaofang said. After a while, everyone gathered around Master Mao and came to a shop. Mao Xiaofang reached out and wiped the **** fingerprints on the door, and murmured: "There is indeed some ghostly energy." "Yes, Master Mao, what do you think we should do?" the aunt said quickly. Mao Xiaofang: “Tonight, let’s catch ghosts!” Night. Long street. Mao Xiaofang stood in front of a Dharma altar, holding a mahogany sword in his hand with a serious look on his face. “If you are pretending to be a magician, you will definitely have to do some magic later.” In the crowd, Shu Ning, who was holding a new camera, murmured. “Shh, keep your voice down.” Seeing the unkind looks from the people around him, Lin Zhijian gently tugged on the corner of Shu Ning’s clothes. On the throne. Mao Xiaofang danced with his sword, recited incantations, moved around, and cast spells to attract ghosts. However, no matter how hard he tried, the surroundings were always quiet, with no trace of ghosts at all. Gradually, Mao Xiaofang stopped and fell into deep thought. "Junior brother, let me try it..." When the crowd of people watching began to talk about it, Lei Gang came to Mao Xiaofang's side under the attention of countless people. Mao Xiaofang hesitated for a moment, handed over the mahogany sword, and silently moved away. Lei Gang caught the peach wood sword, used his power to cast a spell, and a strong wind suddenly blew up between the sky and the earth. Just this prelude made Mao Xiaofang fall to the ground.
Shortly after. Green ghosts appeared from the strong wind, screaming and rushing towards the altar. “Is there really a ghost?!” Shu Ning was stunned in the audience, and his worldview instantly collapsed. She thought that the people in Fuxitang might have faked it, but the ghosts floating in the air were obviously not created by fakers. “Junior brother, you protect the safety of the people, and I will catch the ghosts.” As Lei Gang said, he took out a cloth bag, knocked out the ghosts one by one, and then forced them into the cloth bag. Mao Xiaofang, who originally planned to catch ghosts, heard Lei Gang's arrangement and had to withdraw from the altar to protect the safety of the people. However, at this moment, he heard some harsh voices among the crowd... “Master Mao can’t summon ghosts no matter what, but Master Lei can summon them with just one move. Does this mean that Master Lei’s cultivation is much higher than Master Mao?” "You still have to ask? That's for sure! Otherwise, why would Master Mao call him Master Lei?" “It’s good now, with two masters here, we won’t have to be afraid of these things in Gantian Town from now on.” Hearing this, Mao Xiaofang frowned slightly. He always felt that there was something very fishy in this, and nine out of ten the trouble was with the ghosts! In the blink of an eye. Leigang put the last ghost into the bag and raised his hand to send the bag to the candle to light it. “Senior brother, wait a minute.” In order to find out the truth, Mao Xiaofang immediately shouted. Lei Gang paused his palm slightly and said, "Junior brother, do you have any questions?" “I want to question these ghosts.” Mao Xiaofang said. Lei Gang: "If we don't burn them to death now, I'm worried that something will happen if there are too many dreams during the long nights." Mao Xiaofang: “I think if we don’t find out the truth, something similar may happen again.” Leigang hesitated for a moment, but finally handed the bag to Mao Xiaofang. “Hello, Mr. Lei, I am a reporter from The Sun. Can I do an exclusive interview with you?” At this time, Shu Ning boldly came to Lei Gang and said loudly. “I’m sorry, I don’t accept interviews.” Lei Gang declined, and then turned and walked into the darkness. “It’s okay, everyone has dispersed.” Mao Xiaofang clapped his hands and said to everyone. After everyone dispersed, Mao Xiaofang returned to Fuxi Hall with the cloth bag. He released the ghosts one by one in turn and interrogated them carefully, but no matter how he interrogated, he could never find out the reason. at the same time. Outside Fuxi Hall, at the corner of the ancient house, Qin Yao, whose whole body was covered by shadows, whispered: "Athena, Xiao Wenjun, keep an eye on the town. Something strange will happen tonight..." (End of this chapter)
