Chapter 180 I heard about the ‘Enoki Mushroom’ monk again
"According to Ruan Xiangxiang's confession, she is originally from Suzhou, and her family once owned an embroidery shop, so she lived a worry-free life.
Unfortunately, when she was young, her father contracted dysentery and died due to improper treatment. The family fortunes also declined.
Later, some clerks in the embroidery shop secretly made trouble and bullied the orphans and widows into not doing business. As a result, the embroidery shop was burdened with debts. As a result, the mother became ill and couldn't afford it. Creditors kept coming to collect debts.
In desperation, Ruan Xiangxiang went to perform in a painting boat by the Qinhuai River.
Because of her beautiful appearance and superb pipa skills, she soon became famous in the Qinhuai River, attracting countless literati to pursue her..."
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he couldn't help but think to himself: So Ruan Xiangxiang was once a top star like Wu Zhuan? The two top stars are now locked up in a cell, which can be regarded as a special fate.
.
In addition, Ruan Xiangxiang's story of "poor family and forced to have no choice" is really overused throughout the ages.
However, what Ruan Xiangxiang said should be true. She had been deprived of her cultivation and could not deceive the torturers of the Demon Suppression Division, not to mention that Xue Qingshan was still in charge.
Xue Qingshan took a sip of tea from the table, moistened his throat, and continued to tell Ruan Xiangxiang's story:
"Ruan Xiangxiang also worked as a good concubine. Unfortunately, because she was deeply loved by her master, she made the housewife jealous, and she was kicked out of the palace and had to go back to her old career.
It was also that experience that made her no longer want to be a concubine and live by looking at others.
But those who use sex to serve others will be attracted by love when their sex fades. After Ruan Xiangxiang's sex faded in old age, she used her years of savings to redeem herself. She found a nunnery to be ordained and became a monk. She wanted the green lantern to always accompany the ancient Buddha.
Spend the rest of your life here.
But after all, she has experienced the mortal world and is used to prosperity. How can she bear the loneliness and strict rules and regulations in the nunnery?
What's more, Qin Huai's experience of being famous made her very concerned about her appearance.
Seeing her face getting older and her hair turning gray, and recalling the sweet words of her former benefactors, only to end up alone and alone, Ruan Xiangxiang could not help but feel sad and had the idea of committing suicide.
So she hugged the pipa that had been with her for many years, found a river, and planned to commit suicide by drowning herself in the river.
She drowned in the river, but she did not die because she met a monk who rescued her..."
"Monk?"
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Why is he a monk again?
It was the monk who rescued Ruan Xiangxiang, and it was the monk who enlightened the tiger.
I wonder if there is any connection between these two monks?
Xue Qingshan paused and asked him: "It's a monk, yes. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said, "No, I just thought of another thing. You can continue talking."
Xue Qingshan glanced at him, did not ask further questions, and continued:
"Ruan Xiangxiang, who wanted to die, did not appreciate it after being rescued, and instead scolded the monk.
The monk was not angry either. He pointed at her Pipa with a smile and said that it was a spiritual treasure.
I don’t know what kind of magic the monk used to turn the bamboo pipa into essence, but the material also became human bones. When the strings were shaken, human speech came out, and Ruan Xiangxiang was called the master.
Ruan Xiangxiang was frightened at the time, but the monk told her not to be afraid, and she was really not afraid anymore.
The monk also said that he was destined to her and couldn't bear to see such a beautiful woman aging, so he taught her how to collect yang and replenish yin and rejuvenate through blood, and then disappeared.
Ruan Xiangxiang thought that she had either met an Arhat or a Bodhisattva, and she was very grateful.
After returning home, she tried to use the method taught by the monk to regain her youthful appearance.
At first, she only dared to use the method of harvesting yang and replenishing yin, and did not dare to take a human blood bath.
After several times of picking up yang and replenishing yin, she felt the effect of rejuvenating her appearance. She was very excited, but at the same time she disliked the slow recovery of youth by just picking up yang and replenishing yin.
Because the method of harvesting yang and replenishing yin has a better effect on rejuvenating the face, if you want to regain your youth, you still have to bathe in human blood.
Just when Ruan Xiangxiang was hesitant, the nuns in the nunnery found out that she was actually seducing a man. They were furious and accused her of violating the sexual precepts and wanted to put her in solitary confinement.
come out.
This made Ruan Xiangxiang anxious. If she was imprisoned, she would have no yang energy to draw from. Let alone regain her youth, she would not even be able to maintain her beauty.
She finally found a way to keep her appearance and regain her youth. She didn't want to grow old again.
In addition, the Bone Pipa kept bewitching her, so she finally couldn't hold it back and killed everyone in the nunnery with the Bone Pipa and took a bath with their blood.
Although a woman's blood is not as effective as a man's, it still allows her to shed her old skin and put on a new look after soaking in it.
From then on, she embarked on a path of no return. In order to make it easier for her to harvest yang and replenish yin, she sold herself into a brothel and returned to her old business..."
After listening to Ruan Xiangxiang's story, Qin Shaoyou was most concerned about that monk.
"Did Ruan Xiangxiang tell her what the name of the monk who taught her the evil method was and what he looked like?"
"It's strange to say that Ruan Xiangxiang not only doesn't know the monk's name, but she can't even describe his appearance. According to her, although she has met the monk several times in the past few years, every time she meets, the monk's face changes.
The appearance was different from before, but every time she was sure that what she saw was the same monk."
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
His appearance changes every time we meet. Isn't this the "see you tomorrow" and "Enoki" monk inspired by the tiger?!
Are the monk who enlightened the tiger and the monk who taught Ruan Xiangxiang how to pick up yang and nourish yin, and how to rejuvenate through blood, really the same person?
And after listening to the previous narration, Qin Shaoyou was very suspicious that Ruan Xiangxiang was picked up by the nun and was discovered by the nun. It was probably the monk who had done something secretly to induce Ruan Xiangxiang to kill someone in front of the Buddha!
It can be seen from this that the monk has no reverence for Buddha or Bodhisattva.
His identity as a monk is probably fake.
What is he planning when he causes so many troubles? What is his plan?
Then the old question comes up again: Who did this monk want to ambush and kill after he mobilized so many demons that night half a year ago?
Did Ruan Xiangxiang and her Bone Pipa participate in this action?
Will she know more?
Thinking of these questions, Qin Shaoyou wanted to go to the prison and ask Ruan Xiangxiang himself.
But he finally suppressed the impulse and instead of rushing to the prison, he asked: "Why did Ruan Xiangxiang come to Luocheng? Is there any conspiracy?"
Xue Qingshan replied: "We have asked Ruan Xiangxiang this question. She said that she was originally in Zhoucheng, but was suspected by the night watchman of Zhoucheng. She was afraid of being exposed, so she found an opportunity, changed her identity, and followed
People from Piaoxiangyuan ran away and came to our place. Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the city, they were targeted by you!"
After a pause, he added: "This time you were able to see through Ruan Xiangxiang and arrest her. You have made another great contribution!"
Xue Qingshan smiled very happily when he mentioned the word "first skill".
He was really happy for Qin Shaoyou.
He has just been promoted to the flag officer and has made great achievements. After this, who dares to gossip about Qin Shaoyou?
But what Xue Qingshan didn't expect was that after hearing what he said, Qin Shaoyou was not only not happy, but also refused nervously: "Don't give me the first prize! Brother-in-law, you can't harm me!"
"What is this nonsense?"
Xue Qingshan was stunned, how could this taunting skill harm you?
If this is harming others, then I am willing to be harmed again and again.
