Chapter 57 Spirit Beast
"Oh." Zheng Ling asked, "Captain Fan, do you seem to know the past of this Yinming Monk?"
"Well." Fan Yifan said, "his family, fifty years ago, were all burned to death in Shuishu City. Shuishu City was originally his home, and even the Guangxiao Temple was donated to repair it."
"Why is this monk so rich? Why is he so so?" Chen Qianyu asked curiously.
"His grandfather was the prime minister of the Taizu Dynasty, and his father was a wealthy family, spending huge sums of money to build the Shuishu City." Fan Yifan said, "But for being rich and unkind, his father used his grandfather's power to do everything he could to his extreme, which led to his wealthy family business."
"What about later?" Chen Qianyu asked curiously.
"The big tree attracts wind." Fan Yifan said, "In addition, his grandfather's hands and feet are not clean, and his father's man also offended many people. After his grandfather's retiring for only half a year, he was impeached and abused for crimes such as corruption, abuse of power, etc. However, Emperor Taizu thought he was an old minister, so he just sent officials to his mansion to check."
"Then their whole family was silenced?" Chen Qianyu asked.
"No." Fan Yifan said, "In fact, the officials who came to Xiahe Town to inspect did not go to Shuishu City that day. Instead, his grandfather asked the imperial envoy sent to formally check their account books and warehouse the next day. After all, he was the former prime minister, so no one went to investigate that night."
He thought for a while and said, "It was that night that fire broke out in Shuishu City, burning them all to death there because he was not at home at that time, so he escaped.
"Who set the fire?" Chen Qianyu asked.
"It's their own family." Fan Yifan said, "In order to avoid being investigated, his grandfather set fire to burn his warehouse." Fan Yifan responded, "But he never thought that there were paper everywhere in the warehouse, and just clicked it to burn the entire garden." Fan Yifan said helplessly, "At that time, the servants were frightened and all ran out. As a result, there were too many people, which squeezed the bridge. As a result, the fire became bigger and bigger and out of control, until the entire Shuishu City was burned clean. Except for a few servants who could swim, they were basically burned to death or drowned."
"Captain Fan is accurate?" Gong Chun asked.
"This is clearly recorded in the county annals." Fan Yifan said, "The subsequent witnesses and coroner autopsy files are still there. After all, this is a major case that only happened in our county for decades."
"That's just an accident?" Gong Chun asked.
"Of course it was an accident. Although there was no rain that night, it was strong winds and the fire was very fast, so there was no time to escape." Fan Yifan said, "The county chronicle records that on that day, the strong winds in Xiahe County were strong, which had not happened in a century."
"I know this." The spirit beast suddenly spoke, "The wind was terrible that day, and it was not an ordinary wind."
"It's not an ordinary wind?" Gong Chun asked, "Why?"
"The Yin soldiers crossed the boundary." said the Spirit Beast, "Every hundred years, the Yin soldiers enter the world a few days before and after the Ghost Festival, and investigate the lonely ghosts left in the world. Wherever the Yin soldiers go, there will be a blew of Yin wind."
"So that's it." Zheng Ling said, "Since it was an accident, why did the bald donkey say that he had made enemies with the Tian family?"
"But he doesn't believe it." Fan Yifan said, "It was a man in Shuishu City that he couldn't survive. He thought it was arranged by Emperor Taizu, so it was a big fuss at that time. He set fire to Xiahe Town Government Office. Emperor Taizu was forced to order him to be imprisoned. Later, Abbot Xuankong of Guangxiao Temple specially pleaded with Emperor Taizu, and was released. Soon after, he was ordained at Guangxiao Temple, with his Dharma name Yinming."
"So that's it." Gong Chun asked in confusion, "How could you know the old things fifty years ago so clearly?"
"When we woke up by the evil ghosts in Shuishu City, I went to check the county annals, so I found this old story, and later asked the old team of the county government in the early years, and confirmed it." Fan Yifan said, "I didn't expect that more than fifty years have passed, and his resentment has not subsided and he has become more and more serious."
"It's so scary." Lu Mangqing said, "Why is he as black as carbon?"
"What kind of magic skills should have been practiced?" Fan Yifan thought for a while and said, "It seems that the black realm magic skills, I heard from the master that Guangxiao Temple has such a forbidden technique that came from the Western Regions back then. By sucking human souls, you can quickly improve your cultivation."
"Why didn't he chase him?" Gong Chun asked.
"Oh no?" Fan Yifan said, "He sucked the ghost corpse, at this moment..."
"What's wrong?" Gong Chun asked.
Fan Yifan said: "Ghost corpse is the most yin and evil thing. He is a living person, and his yang energy cannot resist the erosion of ghost corpse. If he cannot inhale the yang energy to make up for it, he will become a dead person, so..."
"So he wants to suck the yang energy of living people?" Gong Chun said, "Where is the closest person to here?"
"Shuishu City." Fan Yifan blurted out without thinking.
"Let's hurry over." Gong Chun said quickly, and quickly got up and wanted to run.
"What are you busy with?" Zheng Ling grabbed his arm and smiled, "You don't need such a good mount, you have to spend so much effort."
He patted the spirit beast and said, "Get bigger."
The spirit beast suddenly roared to the sky, and its body suddenly increased several times. The spirit pulled Shen Qianyu to jump onto the spirit beast's back and said with a smile: "I can't come up."
Everyone then realized and got on the back of the spirit beast together.
"I don't recognize the road?" asked the spirit beast.
"Just go, I'll give you the way." Zheng Ling smiled and patted his head heavily. The spirit beast instantly began to run wildly, shuttled through the dense forest like a rush of mountains and seas.
"It's so satisfying." Lu Mangqing said excitedly, "How great if this was my mount."
"Thinking too much." Zheng Ling smiled, "It would be nice if you didn't eat you."
Gong Chundao: "How many people are there in Shuishu City at this moment?"
"Nothing." Shen Qianyu said, "Big brother, second brother, third sister, fourth brother, fifth sister, sixth brother, seventh brother, starling brother, tenth brother... Oh, tenth brother is not here, then there are only a few of them, by the way, there is also the left captain."
"Of course I know them. I'm asking you if there are any other people?" Gong Chun said helplessly.
"There are also a few craftsmen, but they won't be there at night." Shen Qianyu said.
"Luckily, there are few people." Gong Chun said, "Hurry up..."
After hearing Gong Chun's words, the spirit beast rushed forward desperately and almost threw Bao Xiaodou out. Fortunately, Zheng Ling pulled him.
He hurriedly thanked.
Zheng Ling said, "But I like your eyes very much. Do you want to give them to me?"
"Ah..." Bao Xiaodou said in surprise, "But I will be blind."
"Oh, let's keep it for me if you die." Zheng Ling sighed.
"That's OK..." Bao Xiaodou said hurriedly.
Gong Chun said helplessly: "Xiaodou, ignore him, he is just talking and having fun."
"I'm serious." Zheng Ling smiled.
