Pei Muyan's eyes turned red from the pain.
He had been watching Zhan Hengyi coldly, but when he heard Wu Liansheng say this, his aura suddenly turned into full force. He walked to Nan Chengcheng's side, staring at Wu Liansheng dangerously, "A grown man, in a pure Buddhist place, is exposing the shortcomings of a little girl in public. This is an evil act.
You want to ask for that Tathagata Buddha statue? That’s impossible, because I want to ask for it.”
Zhan Hengyi looked at Nan Chengcheng after he finished speaking, "Really?"
Nan Chengcheng nodded, her eyes full of smiles. This double-faced man began to protect her. "Well, please take this Tathagata Buddha back to the Zhan family and place it in the east of the main courtyard. It will help you get rid of disasters and evil spirits."
Zhan Hengyi nodded, and the only trace of tenderness he had seemed to be given to her. He looked at Master Yicheng again, and said in a cold but polite voice, "Amitabha, Master Yicheng, Cheng Cheng just said that you have a keen eye that can see through people's hearts. Please take a look and see if we can have this Buddha statue in our home."
Abbot Yicheng responded immediately, "Young Master Zhan, you are a great benefactor for ten generations, with immeasurable blessings. The Tathagata Buddha was unearthed just for you. Everything is predestined by the Buddha.
The consecration ceremony is over, I will take it home for you immediately."
When the ancestors and the Zhan family members behind them heard this, they immediately chanted "Amitabha" to express their gratitude.
The Zhan family has been Buddhists since their ancestors. On the first and fifteenth day of every month, the ancestors would bring their families to the temple to worship Buddha. Now it is naturally great to be able to invite the statue of Tathagata Buddha back home.
When Wu Liansheng heard this, his face turned pale and he sneered sarcastically, "As expected, power and money can lead to great things.
How can I, a teacher, compete with a warrior who is as rich as a country? I won’t ask for it anymore. I am convinced.”
He was about to pull Pei Muyan away when he turned around and saw people from the police department coming. Twenty or so uniformed guards surrounded Wu Liansheng. The captain stood in front of Wu Liansheng and said, "Wu Liansheng, we suspect you are involved in a corpse hiding case. Please come with us immediately."
"You've caught the wrong person. I don't know what you're talking about." Wu Liansheng pulled the weak Pei Muyan back.
"Please cooperate with us to investigate!" The captain took out handcuffs and handcuffed Wu Liansheng.
"Mr. Wu, good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. Stop talking about your status as a teacher.
Street thugs can save lives, teach scholars, but they can also kill and steal.
Good and evil have nothing to do with status, wealth, or position. Nan Chengcheng glanced at him and turned to comfort her cousin.
Wu Liansheng gritted his teeth viciously, "You are going too far, let me go!" He refused to be taken away.
After watching all this in silence, Zhan Fu took a few steps forward, staring at Wu Liansheng with eagle eyes and asked, "Wu Ashan, is he your father?"
Wu Liansheng looked at Zhan Fu'er grimly, breathing heavily, "Yes. My father's tragic death was caused by you, and now you want to kill me too?"
"Leader!" Zhan Hengyi gave the captain of the police department a cold look.
Pei Muyan caught up with her, but was stopped by Nan Chengcheng, "Cousin!"
"Ah! It hurts!" Pei Muyan covered his arm in pain and slowly bent his body, looking even thinner.
Nan Chengcheng was startled. She hadn't used much force, so why was her cousin in so much pain? "Cousin? You..." She seemed to remember something and lifted her cousin's sleeve slightly. Her arm was covered in bruises, old and new...
The pilgrim who was watching from the side with his head tilted also saw it, "That pale-faced scholar is committing domestic violence? Why was he beaten like this?"
Nan Chengcheng hugged her cousin distressedly and gently soothed her back, "Cousin, don't be afraid. From now on, come home with me."
Pei Muyan lost control of her emotions and cried uncontrollably.
…
The Zhan family's ancestor asked Zhan Fu, "Do you know Wu Liansheng's father? What's going on between our family and theirs?"
Zhan Fu said, "At the end of the previous dynasty, there were wars everywhere. When our family moved south to Hankou, we encountered a group of horse bandits. Do you still remember?"
The old ancestor was startled, as if recalling a nightmare, "I remember, when Jinrong was pregnant with Hengyi, our family drove a horse-drawn carriage to a desolate mountain in Hankou, and was robbed by a group of horse bandits.
I remember their leader, Ashan. He kicked Jinrong off the carriage and robbed us of our money. Jinrong almost had a miscarriage.
Luckily, we had a large group of people with us, and everyone was skilled in martial arts, so we were able to escape. Later, Jinrong had to lie on the bed to give birth in order to protect the fetus, and she suffered a lot."
