Wang the Scoundrel was tricked and confessed all the things he had done.
He used the guise of fortune telling to swindle and deceive people. He revealed in detail which village girls and married women he had slept with, and which of them had maintained a relationship with him afterwards.
He himself has lost count of how many people he has deceived over the years under the guise of exorcising evil and bringing good fortune.
Besides Shitou Village, Songzhuang Village is also known for its recent scams and swindles.
He originally ran a fortune-telling shop in the county town and even rented a house to conduct group exorcisms and bring good fortune, but a man named Wang Xiaowei from Tangzhuang went to the county town specifically to find him.
He was given a sum of money and instructed to go to Songzhuang Village to swindle Song Erzhuang's family by deliberately spreading rumors in the village that Song Yinhua had questionable morals and was an immoral concubine.
"Some of those words, I can't even say them myself, Wang Xiaowei wrote them all down on paper and made me memorize them."
“How could a kind and upright master like me do such a thing?”
“Look at my face, so upright, would I go out of my way to harm people? I was forced into it, I had no choice!”
"It was Wang Xiaowei from Tangzhuang who told me to do this. They told me about Song Erzhuang's family situation and the affairs of the surrounding neighbors in advance."
"When others ask me for help, how can I, such a kind and benevolent master, bear to refuse? I have no choice but to reluctantly help them out."
"Those villagers who cried and begged me for money to exorcise evil spirits and bring them good fortune, I really had no choice, this master is too kind."
Wang the Scoundrel kept calling himself a master, saying he was forced into it, had no choice, and that he was kind-hearted and righteous.
Black Impermanence wanted to punch him several times, but was stopped by White Impermanence, who was half a head shorter than him.
"The Wang Xiaowei family from Tangzhuang are no good either!"
"They promised to pay me to do things for them, but when I tried to help them, that Song Yinhua smashed my head with an iron shovel, almost killing this master!"
"But what's wrong with them is that they didn't pay the final payment... Of course, as a noble and moral person as this master, I regard money as dirt. I don't care about the money; I'm just angry that they used me and then discarded me without a word of comfort, and even dumped a hot dish on my head."
"Just mentioning that family in Tangzhuang makes me angry!"
"Given how his family treated me, I even helped his little lucky star exorcise evil spirits and increase his blessings that night. I was exhausted and it consumed a lot of my blessings and lifespan."
Bai Wuchang asked, "Wang Xiaowei from Tangzhuang, his mother is named Tang Su'e? His family lives with his maternal grandfather? And his seventh uncle's family too?"
"Lord Wuchang, you are truly a prophet! I was forced into this situation; I had no choice. It's all because this master is too kind-hearted and couldn't bear to refuse. A master as righteous as me, if I don't go to hell, who will? Amitabha!"
Black Impermanence was so angry that his voice changed, and he kicked Wang Pizi on the head, "You're still putting on an act?"
"Amitabha, Amitabha, Amitabha! Please calm down, sir. This master is just that kind and righteous. Look at this face of mine, what an upright face it is! Amitabha!"
Bai Wuchang shouted to the side, "Ox-Head and Horse-Face, have you written it all down? Bring over the indictment with the charges and the inkpad, and have him sign it!"
The two ox-headed and horse-faced demons stood there dumbfounded, but one of them reacted first and handed over a blank piece of paper.
"My lord, I am truly innocent. It was all out of necessity. It's all my fault for being too kind..."
Unable to bear it any longer, Black Impermanence knocked Wang Pizi unconscious with a blow after Wang Pizi pressed his handprint.
After removing the props from his face and wiping it, Song Baogen's face was revealed.
"Sister, I've never seen anyone so shameless. She talks a lot about morality and righteousness, but does nothing but shameless things."
The two demons, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, removed their heavy headgear, revealing themselves to be Li Wenxiu and Song Caixing.
"I never imagined he had deceived so many people." Li Wenxiu exclaimed in surprise, running to Song Baogen's side, her eyes filled with love as she looked at him.
Song Caixing walked up to Bai Wuchang and asked, "Big sister, isn't Tang Village the one he mentioned the old uncle's family?"
The White Impermanence removed his hat and wiped the makeup off his face. "It's my great-uncle's family!"
Song Baogen was puzzled, "Our family has no grudges against our great-uncle, so why is he always targeting us?"
Song Caixing: "My aunt has been spreading rumors throughout the village that my eldest sister is a jinx. It was all my uncle's idea. He said he was afraid that my eldest sister would affect my second daughter's chances of finding a rich husband when she grows up."
"That's obviously an excuse!" Song Baogen said angrily. "I'm going to settle accounts with my great-uncle's family tomorrow!"
“We’ll settle the score, but we don’t need to get involved!” Song Yinhua glanced at the “noble and kind-hearted master who treats money like dirt” who had been knocked unconscious on the ground. “He will stand up for us.”
Everyone looked at the master on the ground: ...
...
Night was falling.
The moon hangs high overhead, and the sky is full of stars.
Song Baogen rode a 28-inch bicycle, with Song Caixing sitting on the front shoulder and Song Yinhua on the back seat.
The three of them chatted and laughed all the way back to the village.
They chatted about their childhood and their growing up, filled with boundless dreams for the future.
The three of them arrived home and tiptoed back to their rooms.
The kerosene lamp in the main room suddenly lit up. Qiao Guilan looked at the group of people who had just returned home and angrily scolded them.
"Where did the three of you go? Yinhua, did you go to Shitou Village today? Hanwen's mother-in-law said she saw you riding on the bicycle of the Li family girl from their village this afternoon."
“That’s my girlfriend,” Song Baogen explained.
"The two families haven't even met yet, and you've already gone to the girl's house? Don't you even respect me as your mother? Look at the time of day! Why don't you stay overnight at the girl's house?"
Qiao Guilan lost her temper.
She felt that her son's relationship with his older sister was too good, and that she, as his mother, was becoming less and less important to him.
Song Caixing almost couldn't hold back and blurted everything out, but Song Yinhua and Song Baogen, the siblings, stopped her with a wink.
Late at night, Song Yinhua was writing something on her social media.
The antique house is filled with luminous pearls of all sizes, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.
Song Yinhua compiled and recorded everything Wang Pizi had said on the blank paper with Wang Pizi's fingerprint on it.
Wang Pizi will be fooled tonight, not only because he drank a lot of alcohol, but also because he ate wild mushrooms that cause hallucinations.
She bribed the restaurant owner beforehand to put hallucinogenic wild mushrooms in the food Wang Pizi ate.
These wild mushrooms can be found everywhere on the hillside.
Many villagers have mistakenly eaten this mushroom and experienced hallucinations.
It was later discovered that this mushroom only causes hallucinations and has no other side effects. Occasionally, villagers would even pick this mushroom and take it home to eat.
The next morning, Song Yinhua rode on Song Baogen's bicycle to the town's police station.
Grandma Zhou hid in her yard, watching the siblings leave, and muttered with disgust, "Shameless!"
Whenever Song Erzhuang and Song Baogen leave home, Old Lady Zhou runs to the intersection and starts cursing.
The rumors included claims that Song Yinhua was shameless and seduced other men, that Song Caixing was having an affair, and that Song Erzhuang and Qiao Guilan knelt down and begged her not to spread their scandalous affairs.
