After Lu Cijiu understood the situation and knew the reason, he did not respond to the online comments and questions.
By noon, the situation was heating up, and a reporter interviewed Huang Hui and her son. Facing the camera, Huang Hui looked apprehensive. She said, "I don't know. I don't know about Zhou Jianmin. My child is healed. It was definitely the master who helped me heal my son."
The reporter asked, "Since it has nothing to do with Mr. Zhou Jianmin, what exactly is your son's 'illness' like? Was it really cured by that master?"
Huang Hui was anxious. "What do you mean? It's just that the master saved my son. My son was really saved by the master. He didn't ask for money. He's not a scammer."
"I didn't say the master was a liar. Don't worry." The reporter paused. "I heard that you called the police at the master's request. Why did you suddenly change your story and say you didn't know Mr. Zhou Jianmin? What exactly happened to your son's injury?"
Huang Hui was stunned by the question. She hesitated and finally said angrily, "I don't know. I don't care. Anyway, my son is fine. The master saved him. Don't ask me anymore."
This video was posted online and netizens left comments.
[What master? This woman is colluding with an influencer to create hype? They first used the wealthy man's reputation as a gimmick, and now that things have gotten out of hand, they're changing their tune.]
[Obviously a scammer. The talk of exchanging wisdom and removing needles is probably a magic trick.]
Poor Zhou Jianmin, he was so kind to help, but he didn't expect to be bitten back. Poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people.
[I'm from Yuncheng. Mr. Zhou often does charity work and is a very nice person. This internet celebrity is desperate for fame and will do anything to achieve it.]
[The video boasts about a master who can pull out a needle with his bare hands. Haha, I'm dying of laughter. What era is this? I thought we were back to the feudal era. Wake up! It's already dead!]
…
There were too many comments like this, and in the end there were even private messages cursing and bidding farewell to the old times.
Lu Cijiu frowned as he watched the interview, guessing why the old lady had changed her tune. Huang Hui, a widow with her son, was isolated and helpless in Yuncheng. When her son became mentally retarded, she'd risked a major incident if someone threatened her vitals. Now that her son was better and she'd calmed down, it was perfectly natural for Huang Hui to feel timid, considering the other party was a prominent local businessman. Whether it was threats or bribes, it was perfectly normal for Huang Hui to feel timid.
My grandfather had encountered this kind of thing before, and in the end, it turned out that they were not human beings, but liars.
Gong Xichao's expression was icy. "I'll be back soon."
"Where are you going?" The eldest son looked like he was about to hit someone, but Lu Cijiu quickly stopped him.
Gong Xichao was furious, his face icy, "What can I do? If they don't want to be human, then they will be treated like animals and make amends to you."
Lu Cijiu: ??? !!!
"You also know this trick?"
Gong Xichao said proudly, "It's just a trivial skill."
"Wow, Brother Gong is awesome." Lu Cijiu flattered him.
The frost on Gong Xichao's face faded a little. Did the human realize how powerful he was? After a few seconds, he realized that the human was just joking and didn't want him to go. He immediately shouted angrily: "Human!"
"Calm down." Lu Cijiu fanned his eldest son and said seriously, "I know you're angry and want to stand up for me, but everyone has their own way in this world, and the cycle of fate is cyclical. Don't let such a small matter bring you retribution."
Gong Xichao said arrogantly, "Why would I be afraid of this? The Heavenly Palace collapsed, the spiritual energy withered, and there are no gods anymore. After the founding of the country, Taoism has declined, and the monsters are as weak as chickens."
After the old man finished speaking, his expression was almost as if he was saying "I am the Tao".
Lu Cijiu: ...society society.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, demons were not allowed to become spirits. The State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television had said so. Lu Cijiu had never thought it was true.
Now everyone believes in science and faith has collapsed. According to Gong Xichao, the heaven has long disappeared, monsters in the world are barely surviving, the underworld has become independent, and among the three realms, the human world is the only one that dominates. In short, everything is in chaos.
"What about you?" Lu Cijiu thought of Gong Xichao's mention of 4,800 years old. After a long calculation, he finally pulled out his phone and blocked the endless Weibo notifications. They were too annoying. Then he opened Baidu and looked it up. It was probably before the Xia Dynasty.
Gong Xichao said coldly: "Kunpeng is an ancient divine vein, what do you think?" He looked like, "I can beat up anyone I want, what are you afraid of?"
Lu Bijiu: ...
But if it is an ancient divine vein, why is it only 4,800 years old?
Lu Cijiu finished his thought and silently sighed for his own "only" before he swelled up. Looking at the eagle, who was so angry that he wanted to help him, compared to Shanggu, four thousand eight was indeed small, just an elementary school eagle.
"How about chicken cutlet rice for lunch?"
"Okay." Gong Xichao said, then turned to stare at the human.
Lu Cijiu said: "Let's not make trouble, let's eat."
Then I saw the elementary school diao sitting on the jade bed very angrily, giving off an air of "Don't disturb strangers. I'm very angry that humans don't apologize quickly. Even if you apologize, I won't forgive you."
I could actually see it all clearly. Lu Cijiu was shocked, but ultimately chalked it up to a tacit understanding of father-son love. He coaxed Xiaoxue Diao from the side, saying, "Don't be angry. Huang Hui is trying to settle the matter peacefully. The person has been saved. Just ignore what's being said online. Don't you know what I am like?"
"I know what's the use, just let those people scold you!" Gong Xichao sprayed back excitedly.
Lu Cijiu: ...Mr. Diao loves me so much.
"Zhou Jianmin is always quick to act. He used sorcery to buy wisdom, and now that I've corrected him and got his wisdom back, he must be resentful. We're just waiting for him to cause trouble. When he does, I promise to give you a good beating to vent your anger."
Gong Xichao: "Hmph."
Lu Cijiu: I used to get angry when I saw the eagle frowning, but today it looks so cute even when it’s being upset.
"Don't be angry, I'll go cook." Lu Cijiu's frustration after seeing the online comments disappeared, and he said happily, "Brother Gong, I'll give you double the chicken cutlets today. Love you!"
Gong Xichao, who is determined not to forgive humans: ...This, this human, confessed again!
Shameless!
Do you think he won't be angry now?
Don’t even think about it!
The two were talking in the yard. The cubs saw that Gong Xichao was angry and thought that they were arguing. They were all timid and didn't dare to go over. When Lu Cijiu went to the kitchen, the four cubs lined up and sneaked over.
Dalong said worriedly, "Jiujiu, did my uncle make you angry again? Don't be angry."
The use of the word "又" was quite clever. Lu Cijiu was amused.
Gong Xichao heard it clearly.
This little dragon, you don’t even know who your uncle is!
So he walked into the house leisurely and came out with a jar of candy in a few minutes.
Lu Cijiu comforted the four cubs and said, "We didn't quarrel, really. Someone bullied me, and Uncle Gong stood up for me. Uncle Gong is really good..."
The four cubs were finally relieved, and Dalong breathed a sigh of relief, his little face, like a little adult, still showing pride.
My uncle is pretty good.
After a while, Lu Cijiu was frying chicken fillets in the kitchen when he suddenly heard Dalong roar and ran over with his tail like a gust of wind. He was wearing a new white skirt, and as he ran, six beautiful red tails supported the skirt and drew a beautiful red line.
"Oh no! Uncle Gong ate Dalong's candy and Dalong is crying."
Lu Bijiu: ...
Aren’t you ashamed of a 4,800-year-old eagle eating the candy of a dragon that is less than three and a half years old?
When Lu Cijiu rushed over, he saw two children, one big and one small. Dalong, who usually cared about his appearance, was crying and sobbing. He said in a baby voice, "My poor cat is gone, my poor cat is gone."
The pronunciation of sad is split.
Looking at Gong Xichao again, he was holding a jar of candy. Although it was still quite cold, Lu Cijiu could see that Gong Xichao was a little at a loss. He probably didn't expect Dalong to burst into tears and act so arrogantly. He probably didn't know how to coax him.
As soon as he saw Lu Cijiu coming over, Dalong burst into tears and threw himself into Jiujiu's arms, sobbing.
"The poor little cat has been eaten. Woohoo, woohoo, it's gone."
It's really sad to hear.
Because the cubs are still young, Lu Cijiu only allowed each of them to eat one candy when he bought them yesterday. Each cub has a can of his favorite candy. The big dragon one has a red panda pattern. After eating one, he was very happy when he went to bed at night and he couldn't wait to hug the candy jar.
result--
Gong Xichao saw the human looking at him, paused, took out a can from his Qiankun bag, and said, "He said mine first, why should I be angry with you again? You were the one who angered me first."
Lu Bijiu: ...
It was like a kindergarten fight.
Bald head.
"Yes, yes, I was the one who made Brother Gong angry first." Lu Cijiu tried to comfort the elder one first.
Gong Xichao was finally satisfied and reluctantly gave the blue fish-shaped candy jar in his hand to Xiao Polong.
Dalong felt embarrassed after crying so much, so he took the candy jar and whispered, "Thank you, uncle."
"Okay, stop crying. It's all a misunderstanding. Jiujiu will buy you some red panda candy someday." Lu Cijiu rubbed Dalong's head. "Your uncle still loves you."
Gong Xichao curled his lips, but didn't say much. He just poured all the panda candies into his mouth and chewed them with a crunch.
Dalong: I feel so sorry for my poor little cat.
It seems that the eldest son is still angry.
Lu Cijiu understood immediately because he didn't say he would buy bighead carp candy for Xiaoxue Diao.
It's difficult.
Zhou family villa.
Zhou Jianmin's wife held her son, looking haggard, her eyes red and swollen from crying. "... Why is Linlin sick again? He was clearly already well. What should I do?"
"It's okay, I contacted someone. This time I'll buy a rural girl. The money is in place and nothing will go wrong again." Zhou Jianmin comforted his wife and looked at their son in her arms.
His son, Zhou Qilin, had been a bright and clever child, his pride and joy. But when he was four, he was kidnapped and suffered brain damage. Even after being rescued, he became a fool, despite numerous doctors' help. How could Zhou Jianmin's son be a fool?
From now on, all Zhou family businesses will be handed over to Linlin.
The Taoist priest offered to exchange his wisdom for Linlin's. Zhou Jianmin was initially hesitant, fearing his sorcery might harm his son. The Taoist priest reassured him that as long as he chose a child with a birth date similar to Zhou Qilin's, the magic would be harmless.
It happened that the nanny at home was talking about a widow from the same hometown, whose son was born on the same day as his son. She was a woman from another place and had no one to rely on. Zhou Jianmin became interested and decided to try to trick her over first.
And it really worked.
His son's brain has improved. He can call mom and dad and learn things very quickly.
Zhou Jianmin and his wife had not been happy for a few days when their son became stupid again.
It's not easy to lose something after having gained it. Zhou Jianmin was initially hesitant, but after seeing the success of the Taoist magic, he was now determined to get it. If it didn't work this time, he would find a more remote and poorer place. He offered a large sum of money. His company has been doing charity work for many years, donating to primary schools in remote mountain villages. They soon found a girl born on the same day as his son.
The girl's parents have agreed.
Zhou Jianmin looked at his son and said softly, "It's okay. Linlin will be well soon. But before that, we have to deal with the troublemakers first..."
"Hubby, please don't hurt anyone. We just want Linlin to be well. Please don't kill anyone."
"Don't think too much. I'm a serious businessman. How could I do such a thing? I'm just teaching them a lesson." Zhou Jianmin's face gradually darkened when he saw the young man in the video pulling out the needle from behind Huang Hui's son's ear.
