Mistress of the Mysterious Inn - C216
Xiaowan’s neck became tighter and tighter, and everything that had once happened broke through the darkness appeared before her eyes. Madam Xu had mistreated and beaten her up, torturing an innocent child like her without any reason.
“Late …” In that instant when her Qi became weak, Xiaowan heard Hubby’s shout.
“As long as you are alive, anything can happen. It was foolish of me to want to die and be released. If I were to live again, even if I were to chop Madam Xu to death with my scythe, I wouldn’t be able to wait until the day she beats me to death or makes her sell me. Husband, you have to fight for your life, right? ”
She remembered what she had told Ling Chaofeng on their way to the seaside. She could not die in the Madam Xu’s hands, he could not be tortured by her for more than ten years, and in the end, he had even died in her hands.
At this moment, Little Pei rushed down, creating the Golden Dragon Immortal Body. Opening his mouth wide, but in an instant, his mother’s entire body was covered in gold light, causing Little Pei to be unable to open his eyes.
He reached out his hand to block it, and when he opened his eyes again, his father fell forward onto the ground. The barrier that was blocking him suddenly disappeared, and he was able to withdraw his strength in time. But he quickly crawled back up and rushed to his wife’s side. Little Pei swooped down as well, not sparing any effort to use his mother’s immortal energy to extend her life.
But the Xiaowan didn’t die, she slowly woke up in Ling Chaofeng’s embrace. After taking a deep breath, she coughed a few times and smiled weakly to his husband, “Husband, I’m fine …”
Xiaowan raised her left hand, holding the lotus Jade hairpin tightly. It was Ling Chaofeng who brought it to her from the capital, a gift from the Empress.
Xiaowan liked wearing them frequently, but just now, when she was on the verge of death, although she could not see what was pressing down on her, her instinct for survival made her remove the jade hairpin and stab it into the “thing” on her body.
Even the Xiaowan himself and Ling Chaofeng did not see that beam of golden light, it was likely that even the Dao Elders would not be able to see it.
Only Little Pei saw it.
When mother was reborn in front of the Kitigarbha Buddha, the Bodhisattva once put a lotus flower that bloomed at her mother’s side onto her hair. Perhaps that lotus flower became the hairpin in front of her eyes, the Living Soul that was strong enough to stab a demon to death.
When the Spirit Demon Qi dissipated, the Madam Xu’s Living Soul had long been turned into ashes by the Xiaowan. The other small Spirit Demons were easy to deal with, the Spirit Demons all cast their techniques to remove the Evil Demon Qi, and the dark clouds above the Baisha Town dissipated.
What was even more inconceivable was that the innocent commoners who were killed by the Living Soul monsters were actually revived.
Little Pei raised his head to look at the sky. A ray of purple light shot towards the east, it was unknown which deity had interfered in this matter.
Ling Chaofeng supported the Xiaowan as he stood up. Little Pei escorted the people of the town along the way, and when the people of the town saw that the clouds had cleared up, they all went out on the streets to celebrate. The Dao Elders were all supported, and upon their arrival, the Xiaowan had already said that if this could be resolved, the magistrate and the Dao Priest should not tell anyone that it was because of her.
Although the best result was obtained, the Xiaowan did not care about anyone’s gratitude, and so did Ling Chaofeng.
In the tavern, the young parent official was extremely grateful to the Xiaowan. The Taoist had also gifted her a string of prayer beads as a peace and blessings to protect her smooth production.
They promised each other that they would keep the secret. After all, Xiaowan was a weak young lady that could fight against demons.
The Daoist said that the heavens should not be revealed. Some things, the less people know the better. If you don’t know something, don’t investigate it.
There was another matter that magistrate had incidentally told Xiaowan. It was the Daoist saying that because the Living Soul had turned to dust, her original body would fall into an eternal coma. Therefore, the yamen had decided to have Master Mu bring the person back.
Waiting for the Prefecture Lord and the Daoist to leave, Uncle Biao prepared dinner, and then called everyone over to eat. The whole family quietly sat around the table, and the Aunt Zhang was the first to scoop up a spoon to scoop up the soup, and said to everyone: “This matter, let’s just treat it as a dream. When we wake up tomorrow, let’s forget about it.”
Xiaowan said, “I don’t know how I did it either. I just took out a hairpin and stabbed it. “You all better not think that I have some sort of special ability. I …”
Susu smiled from the side: “If you had some special abilities, would you have been beaten half to death by her? “Tell me, perhaps the child in your belly has some background, and the child protected you?”
Xiaowan nodded her head, “It must be.”
Ling Chaofeng said: “No matter if it’s true or not, Aunt is right. Just treat it as a dream. He picked up a chicken drumstick and sent it into Little Pei’s bowl.
The Taoist told him that the children’s eyes were clean and that they might be able to see things that adults couldn’t, which was why he was acting strange.
Hearing this, Ling Chaofeng felt even more guilty towards his son. That slap was enough for him to regret it for his entire life.
“Wow …” Little Pei was extremely happy, but he pretended to lift up his chicken leg and asked around at home. When the adults gave way to him, he started to eat happily.
In front of his family, Ling Chaofeng said to his son: “Little Pei, your father blamed you wrongly, and even beat you up. Don’t be angry at your father, okay?”
Little Pei was startled, his cheeks puffed up as he chewed the chicken, looking at his father warily. He was more used to his father scolding him.
However, Ling Chaofeng just smiled and pretended to be affectionate, causing Little Pei’s hair to stand on end. He crawled into Xiaowan’s embrace, causing his family to laugh out loud.
After a storm passed, Little Pei confirmed repeatedly that his Baisha Town was “clean”. He did not pester his parents to sleep that night and obediently slept in his own room.
But Xiaowan still coaxed him to sleep in his son’s room, covered him up tightly with a quilt, and used a wooden stool to cover his bed, afraid that he would roll down from the bed in the middle of the night.
Ling Chaofeng had long been waiting outside the door, smiling as he replied, “You’re spoiling him too much, even if you roll out of bed and hurt him twice, he’ll be more obedient after sleeping.”
However, Xiaowan said: “I have never been spoiled since I was young. I just want to spoil Little Pei and give him everything that I haven’t enjoyed before.”
Ling Chaofeng laughed and asked: “Then what about this thing in your stomach, are you able to spoil it?”
Xiaowan laughed: “I’ll pamper big brother, big brother pamper little sister, wouldn’t that do?”
When they returned to the room, Xiaowan took off the lotus flower jade hairpin and carefully placed it under the pillow.
This day was truly soul-stirring, but after experiencing so many things following her husband, Xiaowan’s courage grew more and more, and his horizons grew wider and wider. Even if he was on the verge of death today, thinking back, he could only let out a sigh.
Ling Chaofeng caressed Xiaowan’s neck, asking her if it hurt, because he was being killed by a demon, not even a scar was left, and compared to those who died, being able to revive, this was nothing.
The magistrate told the citizens that the Bodhisattva had appeared, and that with the help of the gods, the citizens could go home and pay their respects to the Buddha.
“New lord, you are truly a good person. You actually kneeled to us for the sake of the common people.” The Xiaowan sighed, “Look at that bad guy up ahead, he actually dared to snatch my husband’s wife.”
Seeing Xiaowan’s confident expression, Ling Chaofeng was very pleased and couldn’t help but kiss her a few times. young lady moaned, “Hubby, you can endure it for a while.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Xiaowan suddenly said, “Husband, can you send me home tomorrow?”
Ling Chaofeng looked at her. “Is it about the Madam Xu?”
Xiaowan acknowledged but did not say anything.
The next morning, after Susu and the others came to work, Ling Chaofeng brought Xiaowan and Little Pei out of the house. When they arrived at the village, there were indeed a lot of people gathered outside Master Mu’s home, and when they saw them, they shouted out: “Big Brother Mu, your son-in-law is here!”
When Master Mu came out and saw the child’s door, he sighed and asked Xiaowan, “You already know about your mother’s matter?”
Xiaowan said indifferently, “Father, my mother died a long time ago. She is not my mother.”
Master Mu smiled awkwardly and let the children enter the door. Little Pei took the candy he brought and went to find his aunt and uncle.
Madam Xu laid in the house. She had already been washed clean, so she lifted up the blanket for them to see.
“She was beaten up every day in the prison. I’m afraid she was beaten to this state.” The Master Mu who was unaware said, “I invited a doctor to look. He said that it was useless and was just waiting to die.”
When he thought about how this woman did not regret her evil deeds and was even more resentful than him, wanting to kill him, Xiaowan felt a chill in her heart, and did not have the slightest bit of sympathy for him.
She coldly said, “I came here today to persuade father to be more open-minded and to send her to be cremated as soon as possible.”
“But …” Master Mu was stunned.
“Of course it’s up to you, but that’s what I said.” Xiaowan said, “If it’s too long, then it’s your burden. Daddy wants to understand a little, send her back as soon as possible, and invite the master in the temple to recite scriptures for her. He can be considered to be worthy of her.”
Master Mu was confused. “I’m afraid there’s still hope. If I come back to life, wouldn’t that mean I’m the one who killed people?”
Xiaowan said, “Then just wait for her. If she comes back to life, remember to find someone from the yamen to take her away. Her prison is not over yet.”
Seeing his daughter being so cold and merciless, Master Mu didn’t have anything else to say. He couldn’t ask him to just send her off like this, but he kept it at home, seeing it every day with fear in his eyes. He didn’t even have a home to look for.
“Wen Bao and Wen Juan, I’m afraid they can’t bear to part with their mother. They …”
“Dad, when she hit me in the past, when you saw me covered in wounds, did you think about so many things?” Xiaowan asked, “Have you thought of saving me?”
Master Mu smiled faintly and looked at Ling Chaofeng. After waiting for his husband to put down a bag of silver, he took her and left.
“Little Pei, we’re back.” The Xiaowan called out to her son. Little Pei ran over happily and shouted, “Go kite, kite!”
The villagers and the Master Mu watched as the horse carriage left, and one of them said, “Why is Xiaowan so kind? Why did you come back to take a look? Big Brother Mu, good deeds bring evil and evil. Your daughter and your wife are the best witnesses. ”
Master Mu clenched his lips and clenched his fists. In his heart, he thought that perhaps, according to what his daughter said, he should have sent her away earlier.
Ling Chaofeng brought his wife and son to the river side. Everyone said that he would fly kites in the spring, but who told him that he would buy a kite for his son in the winter?
Looking at the kite that was flying very high, the Xiaowan smiled happily. Ling Chaofeng walked over and supported her, saying, “Be careful not to raise your head, you’re feeling dizzy.”
Xiaowan laughed: “I’m fine, wait until I can run and jump, I also want to play.”
However, Ling Chaofeng said: “I didn’t expect you to go home to bury Madam Xu because of what happened just now.”
Xiaowan nodded: “I’m afraid that she might become some sort of threat to me.”
Ling Chaofeng then continued: “Since you have such a wish, leave this matter to me, it’s almost the new year. After the new year, I will think of a way to let father-in-law cremate her.”
Xiaowan said: “I’m afraid one or two months will be enough for them. When the time comes, I’ll have to ask for your help. ”
Ling Chaofeng sighed: “If someone else’s family member is sick, even if they are ruined, even if they have to guard the living dead for their entire life, even if they die, their family will still remember it for their entire life. But someone like the Madam Xu, what exactly is your goal in coming to this world? ”
Xiaowan shook her head. “It has nothing to do with me anymore. From today onwards, everything is peaceful. She deserves it. Even if she dies, I will not forgive her. ”
“Then I won’t think about it.” Ling Chaofeng hugged Xiaowan’s waist, “Let’s live our lives well. I’m going out for a trip before New Year’s, and I’m busy only after I’ve passed Yuan Xiao, accompanying you everyday.”
After that, Ling Chaofeng made a trip outside, and in the past few days, the matter of Baisha Town was naturally reported by the county.
When the emperor saw the note saying that the Baisha Town Demons ran rampant, and the Bodhisattva appeared in public to undergo tribulation, he could not help but frown. He felt that it was strange and returned to the Culture Hall, handing the paper over for Siyan to see.
Siyan read it and asked the emperor: “Isn’t that a very ordinary thing? From time to time, there would be people who would say that there was something strange going on over there and say that there were ghosts and gods. ”
Xiang Run asked: “Really?”
Siyan laughed, “Your majesty has gone to the commoners too little, and knows too little.”
