053. Destroy the whole family
The government prison.
Miao Yuan and Zhu Lezhi were imprisoned in the same cell. When they were locked up, the bailiff said that the master had ordered them to go free when they had thought their minds through.
The two were not worried.
If Yang Chen insisted on protecting his son, he would have to watch his son die, and Yang Chengcai wouldn't have much time to live either. It would just be a matter of seeing who could not hold on any longer and bowed their head first.
But ever since Miaoyuan picked up the little paper man who broke into the yamen, his expression has never looked better.
Zhu Lezhi watched Miaoyuan pinching the little paper figurine with a heavy face, facing the wall of the prison in silence for several hours, and asked cautiously: "It's not that serious, little master, Qingling has Senior Shang by his side, nothing will happen."
Miao Yuan was worried and couldn't bear it any longer, so she waved the little paper man in front of her.
The first thing he said was: "Am I worried about him?"
Zhu Lezhi thought for a moment and then comforted him, "Don't worry, little master. It's okay the other way around. That Yang guy is extremely evil. This damn government is colluding with him. Even if he dies, it's justice for the heavens."
"Things in the living world should be judged by the laws of the living world, and the grievances of the ghosts should also be decided by the underworld." Miao Yuan's expression was complicated, and he sighed again, "There are so many grievances like this, how many can they handle with just the two of them? The law is nothing, and how many people who died unjustly can turn into ghosts and come back to seek revenge?"
Buddha talked about compassion and that all living beings are the same. I wish Lezhi has witnessed this today.
After thinking it over seriously, she said, "I don't understand why you monks can chant sutras and practice Buddhism, but people have seven emotions and six desires, so it's inevitable that they will be selfish. Your so-called laws of the world cannot control people's hearts. This is how things are in this world. There are always people who are beyond their ability. We in the Zhu family have learned the Taoist tradition. I advise you to just walk on the road ahead and don't worry about things in the distance."
Miao Yuan did not say anything else, but just shook his head. He did not agree. He believed that people have bad natures, so they need to be educated rather than left alone.
Zhu Lezhi didn't say any more. She saw clearly that human hearts were unpredictable and the right and wrong in this world were often entangled and difficult to distinguish. As for expecting everyone to be kind and live in harmony, it was wishful thinking. It would be better to live a free life with a clear conscience.
.
At this moment, the Yang residence was truly infested with ghosts.
The originally graceful body was covered with countless miserable and terrifying scars. The ferocious female ghosts rushed into the Yang Mansion. Ghosts like them originally could not recognize the road, but Yang Chengcai happened to be here, and the cause and effect were still there, so they could easily find it.
When the Yin energy is too strong, such as the Yang residence that is now shrouded in it, ghosts will voluntarily reveal their true colors, and even mortals can see them.
The entire Yang residence was in chaos.
The female ghosts were filled with resentment. They first killed Yang Chengcai, who was only half alive, and then started a killing spree in the courtyard. However, they were controlled by their leader, so they first went to find Yang Chen, the owner of Chunhong Courtyard.
With his life hanging in the balance, how could he care about the father-son relationship? The pain of his soul being torn apart far exceeded the pain of his body. Yang Chen screamed for mercy with all his might: “Mercy—Mercy! No, I didn’t kill you!”
The response was a sharp and sinister laugh.
Yang Chengcai's biological mother was the daughter of the Zhang family. Naturally, as the mistress of the house, she doted on her son and allocated money to settle disputes. In addition, the servants and thugs employed by Yang Chengcai all fled around the yard, but they could not get out of the magnificent Yang family mansion.
The two red lanterns at the gate of the mansion swayed slightly in the wind, and miserable cries for help were heard throughout the house. A number of managers and thugs of Chunhong Courtyard died, and someone had reported it to the government office. Qingling sat in the basement room with his head propped up to take a short rest. The energy he had finally restored in the past two days was exhausted again by a demon-raising formation.
The government officials arrived at Chunhongyuan first.
The door of the room was kicked open, waking up Qingling who was in a light sleep.
Those officers also looked panicked. After all, the deaths of the stewards were not very beautiful. They were all naked and covered with strange scars. They didn't know the cause and effect. But they were all from Liuyang City and knew something about the Yang family's secrets. When they saw Qingling, a stranger, they naturally suspected him first.
"Have you been here all this time?" the officer asked sternly.
Qing Ling nodded, "What?"
In such a chaotic situation, the calmer and more composed people are, the more suspicious they become. And the strange drawings on the ground look weird and suspicious no matter how you look at them.
The officer asked coldly, "How much do you know about the death of Manager Jiang?"
Qingling looked at the officer quietly.
The cause and effect recognized by heaven are those who are directly responsible for the death of the evil spirit, or those like Shang Changheng, who after his death will have his luck drawn from the Qing family to support his family. In this way, as long as you enjoy his luck, you will be affected by his cause and effect.
I just don’t know whether these officials who disregard the law and collude with the Yang family’s officials and businessmen to oppress the people are considered within the scope of cause and effect.
Qing Ling didn't care too much about these things in the past. After all, it had nothing to do with him. Qing Ling, who was trapped in the cocoon, actually didn't have much emotional fluctuations.
But Shang Changheng's past broke that cocoon.
Therefore, Qingling also had his own views on the world. He would not necessarily feel sad for these innocent souls who died in vain. After all, he did not know their past. They were just casual acquaintances, but they had their own ideas about right and wrong in their hearts. Therefore, in his eyes, these officials and prefects who colluded with each other were also deserving of death.
Seeing that Qing Ling remained silent, his cold eyes revealed a strange and chilling look, and coupled with the inexplicable deaths of people outside, his heart began to tremble.
"You...why don't you speak?" When he asked again, his confidence was not as strong anymore.
Qing Ling sat up straighter and asked softly, "My two friends are still in the jail in the government office, right? They have not committed any crime, so please release them."
The words were polite, but the tone was not what they meant.
Everyone present knew why the two men were sent to jail. It was related to the evil disease of the eldest son of the Yang family. When thinking about the deaths of those people, the handsome young man in front of them also looked terrifying.
The officer's face changed. He wanted to arrest Qing Ling directly, or accuse him of murder and kill him on the spot, so that he could deal with the trouble in Chunhongyuan.
But I don’t know what kind of evil magic this guy has. If he really starts fighting now, I don’t know who will die!
In a hurry, the officer hurriedly apologized with a smile: "Yes... yes, you are talking about Master Miaoyuan and Miss Zhu, right? Please wait a moment, I will report to Master Qian right away."
After saying this, he quickly winked at his frightened colleague beside him, who immediately nodded and ran away in a hurry.
Then, the yamen officer smiled and said to Qing Ling, "Young Master... it would only take a word to see those two. Why make such a big fuss?"
"Let's do justice for the people." Qingling then smiled. He felt that the officers of Liuyang City Yamen were smarter than Lincang. They were afraid of him before they even knew the truth.
But his words made the officer break out in cold sweat.
Who hasn't done something wrong? He is standing here. Isn't this what this person wants to do?
"Well, well... well..." The officer's hands were covered in cold sweat, but he didn't even dare to touch the handle of his knife. He smiled with difficulty and said, "This... this place is very chaotic. I don't know where you are staying. Either... or move first?"
"That won't do." Qing Ling shook his head. He would not leave this place for the time being. This was where those female ghosts died. After they had taken revenge, they would return here. So he told the truth: "I still have to wait for someone."
The leading officer was so frightened that he was at a loss of his wits. He did not send his men back to release the prisoners directly, but to ask the prefect before making a decision, just to delay for some time.
But the person in front of me speaks strangely. Who is he waiting for here?
It definitely can’t be that monk and the girl…
Can't those two people wait there?
"You guys go out now." Qing Ling said, "I will leave when I'm done."
The officer hesitated for a moment, but was frightened when he saw the patterns on the ground. He bowed slightly and turned around to leave, closing the door he had just kicked open before leaving.
The group walked out of the long dungeon in silence, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief. Someone whispered, "Boss, this... we can't report this to the adults, right? What about the Yang family?"
The officer wiped the cold sweat from his head, and his mouth twitched slightly, "The people in Chunhongyuan...are all dead like this, how can the Yang family be safe?"
The few people following behind reacted immediately.
The leader said worriedly, "Looking at this situation...let alone the Yang family, we should be thankful that they don't involve us. The Yang family has done so many evil things that they have provoked such an evil star and evil spirit."
Perhaps some people have scoffed at the idea of ghosts and gods before. After all, no one has ever seen a ghost taking revenge, killing people, setting fires, or stealing a gold belt. There are so many unfair things in this world.
but…
He looked back at the long corridor, which was covered with patches of scarlet blood and corpses, and quickly looked away.
He didn't care how that person did it, and he didn't want to know. He just wanted to avoid being hit by the fatal knife.
.
Just after the Yin hour, the female ghosts, having avenged themselves, returned to the house where they had suffered humiliation and lost their lives.
Qingling sent them to the reincarnation, but Miaoyuan and Zhu Lezhi did not come. Instead, the officer who had spoken to him before was guarding the entrance of the tunnel. When he saw him come out, he bowed and said, "Sir, our master invites you to have a meal at his house. Your two friends are here now."
"What's your sir's name?" Qing Ling asked casually.
The officer said cautiously, "Our master's surname is Qian, and his name is Qian Zifeng."
"Oh." Qing Ling wanted to take a rest at this moment, but since Lord Qian was hosting a banquet and the two were still in his hands, it would be okay to go and take a look.
They walked for a while with the officer, and Shang Changheng walked side by side with him all the time.
Qingling suddenly asked: "How many people died?"
"What?" The officer was stunned.
Qingling asked again: "How many people died in Chunhongyuan and Yang family?"
The officer's mouth twitched. It seems you don't even know it yourself. You are so bloodthirsty that you want to kill again.
"Chunhong Courtyard... Manager Jiang and those teachers and servants were all killed." The officer was so scared when he said this, "And the Yang family, that family of three, and the thugs hired by the mansion are also... dead, dead."
It can be said that he died quite cleanly.
Destroy the entire family immediately.
Qingling nodded.
Sure enough, as long as this cause and effect is involved, the ghost killing people can only be considered to have settled the cause and effect, and no new cause and effect will appear.
