MTL - Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire-Chapter 511 【City God's past crimes】

  Chapter 511 [City God’s Evils]

"Fang Shangxian, listen to me." Ke Chenghuang nodded, indicating that it had a lot to do with what he said just now, and then listened to the movement in the yard, and heard that the noise inside had subsided, leaving only a slight The sound of sobbing continued to tell Fang Chang the story of the year.

"This incident has a great impact on the surrounding area. After all, it's Chinese New Year. Suddenly, a woman took a kitchen knife to deal with her husband, which caused a lot of discussion. In addition, everyone is very busy, and there are all kinds of speculations. .” Ke Chenghuang narrated.

  After the banshee was caught, the Chenghuang and the county magistrate negotiated in private before deciding on the verdict.

The banshee committed an evil deed, but the crime did not warrant death. After interrogation back and forth, it was ensured that she took the knife only because of some incomprehensible reasons, and was preparing to cut her husband open, rather than the desperate cry and resistance as reported in the rumors. After the county magistrate reported it , the state sentenced him to exile for thousands of miles.

  Of course, the city **** took action to restrain the banshee, and severely criticized her. Of course, it was not "one person's heart is not that person's heart", but the banshee's attitude of indifference to living things. Ke Chenghuang made the banshee swear that she would never take the initiative to hurt people or demons, so she let her go to exile.

  Although the banshee's husband survived under the kitchen knife and was sentenced to divorce by the government, it left deep sequelae. He is afraid of kitchens and kitchen knives, afraid of Chinese New Year, and has a great fear of getting married, and he likes to talk, so he looks for people to talk about his experiences.

   "Oh, I was too miserable back then, I married a daughter-in-law..."

   "So what good is getting married..."

  Everyone is tired of hearing it, but out of politeness, it is not easy to refuse in the face. Until not long ago, something happened again.

   There was a young girl in the courtyard. She found someone she liked and was about to get married soon after talking about marriage, so she told everyone in the courtyard. This is also a due gift, the other families in the courtyard are all blessings for this, and the girl who said it is very happy.

  But this man, who was almost killed by the monster's wife, started to talk about the original things inappropriately.

   Immediately, he hurt his temper and made a mess of things.

  In Fang Chang's view, this is like a person who has just given birth to a child, meets Xianglin's wife, and then Xianglin's wife talks about Amao, and naturally breaks up unhappy. And the girl's father, seeing his daughter run away in anger by this young man, was also very angry, so under the rage, his blood surged up, and he fainted immediately.

Fortunately, the identities of the people in this complex are complicated, and a practitioner also lives in seclusion here. Seeing this, he rushed to act, but he only saved the life of the girl's old father, but he was helpless against his illness, so the girl's old father could only Bedridden all year round.

   Seeing that a catastrophe has occurred, the young man has the courage to take responsibility.

  Although he still refused to admit his mistakes, he was responsible for most of the food and daily life of the paralyzed old man, and the rest was taken care of by the old man's daughter and his wife.

  But every time the two sides meet, it is still easy to conflict. One party thinks that he is just telling the truth, and the other party thinks that the crime lies in the young people's inappropriate speech, so as long as the topic reaches this point, disputes will arise. Since they all live in a courtyard, they don't see each other when they look up, so although the intensity of the conflicts is not high, the frequency is not low.

   Today is another similar conflict.

   It is estimated that the old man's son-in-law quarreled with the young man, and finally the old man's daughter was sobbing.

  Fang Chang thought to himself, according to Chenghuang's narrative, this should be divided into two things, one is the banshee's stupidity that led to the attempted murder of her husband, and the other is the conflict caused by inappropriate speech. In fact, in the mortal world, the latter is more common.

I only heard Ke Chenghuang say: "Well, speaking of it, I am ultimately to blame for this matter. I didn't say a word clearly, which led to so many things later. If it weren't for my mistake at the beginning, maybe the two families in the house would still live in harmony. Beautiful, not like this..."

Fang Chang comforted: "Everything has its roots. There is a saying called 'Character determines destiny'. Although the world is impermanent, many things are actually doomed because of various preconditions. Even if you don't say this , according to that person's way of thinking, other things are likely to happen, so don't blame yourself too much. But since there is a reason...how are you going to remedy and solve this matter?"

Chenghuang sighed and said: "Persuasion, every time I come here, I will bring a little piece of spiritual grass and give it to the doctor who treats the old man. If the other party can cure the paralyzed old man, I believe that after solving this problem, the conflict will be resolved." Much less."

  He pricked up his ears and listened to the courtyard again, feeling that the movement had weakened a lot, and said, "Fang Shangxian, let's go in together, the time is just right."

  So Ke Chenghuang stepped forward, raised his hand and pushed the door open.

  This is a mixed-living yard, and it is daytime again, the door is not locked, and there is no need to knock, you can enter by pushing the door.

  Fang Chang walked in behind and looked at the situation inside. The yard in the middle is not too small, the ground is not paved, and the soil is exposed. There is a well in the corner of the yard, and firewood and sundries are piled in the shed. There is a circle of houses around, and it seems that there are seven or eight houses separated.

  The movement happened in the house in the west, and the people around were still doing their own things. They seemed to be accustomed to this kind of quarrel, and they neither came out to watch, nor came to persuade.

Fang Chang and Ke Chenghuang went straight into the room, and because they were already familiar, the people inside recognized Ke Chenghuang immediately when they saw Ke Chenghuang, so they restrained their anger and stood up to greet them: "Old man Ke is here." Even the sobbing The young woman also hurriedly wiped away her tears and went to prepare tea.

   There was an old man lying on a couch with a doctor beside him. The cloth bag in front of the doctor was full of silver needles.

This doctor is also very familiar with Ke Chenghuang. When he saw him, he smiled and said, "Brother Ke has brought medicine again. This medicine is really effective. The patient's condition is much better than before. Plus my acupuncture method , maybe it will be able to move around a little in another month or so."

  These words eased the faces of the people in the room. After all, their biggest conflict was still the paralyzed old man.

  Ke Chenghuang gave a brief introduction to Mr. Xia, saying that he was a friend from afar. He happened to meet this time, so he came here together. After they greeted each other, Ke Chenghuang took out a paper package of medicine powder and handed it to the doctor, who quickly took it carefully, and then Ke Chenghuang began to persuade the two who had just quarreled.

  The doctor was also listening, and the silver needle in his hand kept sticking into the patient, and soon the patient became like a hedgehog. Fang Chang looked at it, and asked curiously: "I was a doctor too, seeing patients like this is not just caused by shortness of breath?"

After inserting the last silver needle on the white cloth, and twisting a few more needles, the doctor stroked his beard and said, "That's right, although shortness of breath has something to do with it, but it's not the main cause. The sudden fall after he fainted was the reason for this." was the biggest cause of him being bedridden."
