Chapter 458 Black Flag
When the weasel mentioned his children, tears immediately streamed down his face. "Those evil wolves took advantage of my retreat to practice and ate all my descendants... I hate them so much."
"My descendants are very obedient. They seek immortality just like me and have never done anything bad... That group of evil wolves bullied the weak in the forest and not only ate my relatives, but also others..."
"I failed to transform this time. I came out with the intention of dying together with the evil wolf."
"I don't care about going to hell. They ate my descendants. When I go to hell, I will still settle accounts with them!"
The weasel's words moved everyone present.
The old man asked, "Wong Tai Sin, you were the one who saved my son from the wolf many years ago, right?"
The weasel nodded. "I had to fight with the wolf king to save your son. Maybe that was the time when the evil wolf was thinking about him."
Meng Shian asked: "If you were given another chance, would you still save people?"
The weasel nodded without thinking: "Of course! I have been enlightened by a master. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If I saw it, I would definitely not watch an innocent child die tragically in front of me."
"You have been silently protecting the two old people in recent days." Jiang Ci said, "You knew that the evil wolf was going to attack, so you waited for the opportunity in secret."
The weasel smiled bitterly: "But it's still a little bit short. If I were stronger, it wouldn't be a problem to deal with three evil wolves."
Murong Jinran praised: "Huang Daxian, you are already very powerful. Besides, the evil wolf is dead, you can rest assured."
The weasel looked outside the door, and sure enough, the bodies of the three wolves and their cubs were still lying in the yard.
"Well... my wish has been fulfilled. Even if I go to hell, it's worth it." After it said this, tears of relief flowed from the corners of its eyes.
Meng Shian looked at Jiang Ci, "It's for revenge, so it shouldn't go to hell, right?"
Since Master Jiang is the judge of souls, she should be able to decide whether living beings should be sent to hell.
The weasel had reason to do this, and it had saved people before.
Jiang Ci pondered for a moment, then said to the weasel, "You should go to hell to atone for your sins of murder, but I can give you a black flag."
When the weasel heard the three words "Black Flag", he was stunned.
Meng Shian called it several times before it came to its senses. It jumped off the table excitedly and knelt down towards Jiang Ci.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you so much!"
The weasel cried as he spoke.
This really confused the old couple.
"What's going on?"
"What is the black flag?"
Murong Jinran explained in shock: "The Black Flag is a magic weapon from the underworld. If a wronged soul holds the Black Flag, they will not be restricted by the karmic debt and can transform into their enemies and creditors to hunt down the other party. In layman's terms, as long as you have the Black Flag, no matter how many times you kill your enemy, you will not be judged by the Ten Courts of Hell, let alone go to hell. It is a precious sword that exempts you from all punishments!"
As far as she knew, it was very difficult to obtain the black flag, and it had to go through layers of review by the Ten Kings of Hell before it could be granted.
Master Jiang actually rewarded a black flag with just a few simple words.
I'm afraid there's no one else like him in the Yin and Yang worlds.
Master Jiang...what is his origin?
After listening to her explanation, the old couple finally understood and thanked Jiang Ci gratefully, "Great Immortal, it is thanks to your kindness that people are rewarded!"
Jiang Ci smiled slightly: "But weasel, although the black flag has exempted you from punishment, you have to do ninety-nine eighty-one good deeds and save ninety-nine eighty-one good people before you can be successful."
The weasel was shocked and said in disbelief, "Your Excellency means... I can still continue to practice Taoism?"
“Yes.”
"Thank you, sir! I will do 81 good deeds and save 81 good people as you said!"
The weasel was so excited that he burst into tears on the spot, and Bang Bang Bang kowtowed to her several times.
Jiang Ci saw a ray of golden light of merit flying out from it and falling into her palm.
She accepted it with pleasure.
Seeing that the problem could be solved satisfactorily, the old couple happily said that they would slaughter a few more old hens to eat.
As a result, when he walked out of the main door and saw the corpse of a wolf in the yard, he came to his senses and realized that all the old hens had been eaten by the wolf.
"This is the old hen I worked so hard to raise!"
"These damn wolves!"
Jiang Ci looked at the exasperated old couple, smiled, and said to the weasel: "They still have more than ten years to live..."
Before he finished speaking, the weasel said with great insight: "Don't worry, sir, I will protect them and will not let them seek death."
Jiang Ci nodded: "It's good that you understand. For them, dying of old age is the best way to die. If they end their lives early because they want to reunite with their son, they will definitely be punished if they wait any longer."
The old couple no longer have any obsession with life, so they will want to pursue death and go to the underworld to reunite with their son as soon as possible.
Little do people know that suicide is a more serious crime than murder.
Those who die of old age will have a better fate in the next life.
If you can avoid being involved in karmic debts, then don’t get involved at all.
The weasel understood the seriousness of the situation and nodded: "I will find a chance to tell them both to live well and wait until they die of old age."
This is a rough statement but it makes sense.
Afterwards, the weasel took the initiative to ask for permission to deal with the wolf's body.
It peeled off the wolf's hair and said it would make it into a butt pad and give it to the old couple.
As for the wolf's carcasses, no one ate them, so the weasel dug a pit, threw the carcasses in, and set it on fire, burning them all to ashes.
After having breakfast in the farmyard, Jiang Ci and others were about to leave.
Jiang Ci searched his pockets and wanted to give the old couple some money, but he found that he had no money, only talisman paper.
She gave the old couple and the weasel each a lucky charm.
Murong Jinran is rich, and when he came, he exchanged a lot of gold bars, which are hard currency in both the Middle Thousand Worlds and the Small World.
She opened the bag, waved her hand, and placed three pounds of gold bars on the table.
Not only did the old couple’s eyes widen, even Meng Shian was stunned.
I've seen wealthy people, but I've never seen anyone so generous.
"No, no, no, you have already helped us a lot, how can we accept your gold bars? Girl, take them back!"
The old lady said she didn't want anything.
Murong Jinran couldn't persuade them, so he had to say, "Grandma, we ate several of your chickens. If you don't accept this gift, I will feel bad."
The old man smiled and said, "Old woman, since this is the gift from the masters, you can just take two."
The old lady actually picked and chose and took the two smallest gold bars.
Murong Jinran was afraid that they didn't have enough, so he stuffed a few more into the box, then put on his backpack and ran away.
"Goodbye, Grandpa and Grandma~~"
The old couple stood trembling on the road with the weasel, waving goodbye with tears in their eyes, watching them go farther and farther away, and disappear at the intersection bit by bit.
