"Borrowing luck to live forever?"
The pupils of the people present suddenly shrank, and their hearts were instantly filled with shock when they heard this word!
"What does it mean to borrow luck to live forever? Butler, please explain in detail!"
Mr. Gu flicked his wide sleeves slightly and looked at the butler without blinking.
"Borrowing luck to achieve immortality is an extremely evil method. It involves stealing the merits and Dharma of Buddhists for one's own use, and then refining them into talismans. Swallowing the talismans allows one to prolong their life, regain youth, and achieve immortality through borrowed luck!"
The butler spoke word by word, and everyone was stunned.
"D-Dang, is there really such an incredible method?"
Mr. Gu was no longer sleepy now and looked at the housekeeper in disbelief.
The butler bowed and said, "This is just a folk rumor I heard a while ago. I don't know if it's true or not. I just happened to remember this after hearing about Taoist Qingshan's situation."
The housekeeper did not dare to insist that Taoist Qingshan was the one who borrowed luck to achieve immortality. He could only say that he had only heard rumors and did not know whether they were true or not.
But everyone had a standard in their hearts, and after hearing what the housekeeper said, they tended to believe the rumor. After all, Taoist Qingshan's situation was too similar to the rumor.
"Master, what the butler said is quite reasonable! How can a person remain unchanged for twenty years and even look younger than before?"
Mrs. Gu recalled the strange scene she saw with Taoist Qingshan yesterday, and felt more and more that he was the person who borrowed luck to live forever as the housekeeper mentioned!
Mr. Gu pursed his lips, his heart sinking.
He looked at the housekeeper and asked, "You mean he can only steal the merits and Dharma of Buddhists to borrow luck?"
The butler nodded: "Exactly."
Master Gu then asked, "What will happen to those whose merits and Buddhist teachings are stolen?"
"Whether foolish or insane, the Dharma is equivalent to the Dao heart of Buddhists. If the Dao heart collapses, the person will lose his vitality and spirit."
The housekeeper sighed as he spoke, "I heard that those whose merits and Buddhist teachings were stolen only have a few months left to live. After a few months, they will completely disappear from the world..."
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
A bold idea emerged in the minds of Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu.
After a moment's silence, Mr. Gu made the final decision with a sinking heart.
"Come here, tie up Taoist Qingshan and make him..."
"No! You can't hurt the Taoist priest!"
Before Master Gu could finish his words, Madam Gu interrupted him harshly. She grabbed Master Gu's arm and said, "Master, you can't hurt the Taoist priest!"
"I have made up my mind, and no one can stop me."
Mr. Gu looked at Mrs. Gu coldly with a firm attitude. He would never let their Gu family get involved with a Taoist priest with a stain on his body and ruin their reputation!
"What are you standing there for? Why don't you tie him up and bring him out?"
"yes!"
The guards were about to take action when Madam Gu, her eyes red, roared, "Let's see who dares!"
The two guards froze in their tracks, at a loss as to what to do next.
Mr. Gu looked at Madam Gu with a headache on his face: "Madam, why are you still making a fuss after it has come to this?!"
Madam Gu's eyes were red as she argued confidently, "Since he can borrow luck to live forever, he can certainly cure Chuan'er's impotence! As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I won't give up. Without my permission, I don't think anyone dares to touch him!"
Madam Gu raised her hand and pointed at everyone present. As long as Chuan'er could be cured, she didn't care whether Taoist Qingshan was using his luck to achieve immortality or was trying to kill people!
This has nothing to do with her!
"You! You are totally unreasonable!"
Mr. Gu shook his sleeves fiercely and looked at Mrs. Gu in disbelief.
"As long as Chuan'er can be cured, I don't care what you say! Gu Chengyin, Chuan'er is your only blood. Do you want to watch him live in shame for the rest of his life?"
"You can do it, but I can't! I'm not as cold-blooded as you!"
"You're all scared, right? Okay, I'm not scared. I'll go in by myself!"
Mrs. Gu's eyes were bloodshot and she walked alone to the heir hall in front after yelling.
Up to now, she only acknowledged Gu Yunchuan as her child and never considered Lechen as her own flesh and blood, even though he was the piece of flesh that she had carried for ten months and fell from her body.
"lady!"
Seeing Madam Gu heading to the heir hall, Mr. Gu hurriedly called out, but Madam Gu had made up her mind and went straight to the heir hall without even stopping.
"Ouch! What a sin this is!"
Mr. Gu stamped his feet on the spot, hesitated for a moment, and then followed.
"master!"
The butler exclaimed and hurriedly followed.
When Madam Gu arrived at the Sitang, Taoist Qingshan was lying in front of the Buddha statue, his gray hair was disheveled, and he looked extremely disheveled. He was completely different from the righteous man he was that day!
After seeing this scene, Mrs. Gu paused and swallowed uncontrollably.
She admitted that she was scared.
But for Chuan'er, I can't retreat no matter how scared I am!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Gu clenched her fists and slowly walked towards Taoist Qingshan in front of her.
"Qing, Taoist Qingshan."
She called out softly, her voice trembling.
After hearing her voice, Taoist Qingshan, who had originally closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes!
A faint light flashed quickly in the originally turbid eyes.
"You're here."
Taoist Qingshan spoke lightly, and then struggled to get up from the ground.
Seeing him struggling to get up, Mrs. Gu stepped forward to support him.
Because Taoist Qingshan had his back to her, Mrs. Gu could only see his gray hair but not his face. When she held Taoist Qingshan's bony arm, she suddenly felt a chill on her back.
She resisted the urge to let go immediately and said to Taoist Qingshan: "Master, let me help you up."
With the support of Mrs. Gu, Taoist Qingshan saved a lot of energy and climbed up from the ground with the help of her.
"Thank you, Madam Gu."
After standing firm, Taoist Qingshan turned his head to look at Madam Gu beside him. The moment he turned his head, his entire face was exposed to Madam Gu's sight.
"ah--"
Mrs. Gu couldn't help but scream, she let go of Taoist Qingshan's arm and staggered backwards!
"lady!"
Mr. Gu, who had just walked to the door of the heir hall, hurried in after hearing Mrs. Gu's shout. At this time, Taoist Qingshan also turned around.
After seeing his yellow and wrinkled face, everyone's breathing stopped and their steps suddenly felt as if they were filled with lead, and they could no longer move forward.
They finally saw with their own eyes what it meant to delay a night's growth!
"Why, did I scare you?"
Taoist Qingshan looked at the stunned crowd, his tone full of displeasure, and he was extremely disgusted by the fear in everyone's eyes!
“No, no!”
Mr. Gu came to his senses first and waved his hands quickly. At this time, the frightened Mrs. Gu also came to her senses from her shock and walked towards Taoist Qingshan, suppressing the fear in her heart.
"Master, please save Chuan'er!"
