The three people from Lichen looked at each other.
Old Man Wu nodded matter-of-factly: "That's right, it's Master Lihuang."
"Not long ago, the city lord also issued an announcement from the imperial court."
"This Master Lihuang was originally the disciple of the Shasheng Buddha of the Shasheng Temple in southern Xinjiang.
First, he had meritorious service in fighting against the demon clan, and later he relieved floods in southern Xinjiang. He is a man of great merit.
That’s why Emperor Zhou canonized him as Master Lihuang.”
"Even the 'twenty-five cassocks' and the sacred bird have been seen by the old man with his own eyes."
"It is indeed a rare treasure, a peerless bird of prey!"
As Old Man Wu spoke, he stroked back and forth with his hand.
"Oh, I didn't expect that such a person would turn out to be a greedy and lustful person."
At this time, Li Sao smiled and said: "What? It's just greed for money, how can you be lustful?"
After saying that, he gave Li Chen a teasing look.
Old Man Wu shook his head: "The world is in a hot and cold world, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be."
"To be honest with the three divine monks, Master Lihuang has only been in Jinsang City for half a year."
"It has harmed dozens of young girls."
“Some of them committed themselves to him in order to treat their family members’ illnesses.
In some cases, they used clever means to plunder and deceive others."
"Many young girls couldn't bear the humiliation and committed suicide by drowning themselves in the river."
"I didn't expect that the mage canonized by the imperial court would be so greedy for money, lustful and debauched."
"There are very few people like the three divine monks."
After hearing this, Li Chen couldn't help but feel angry: Isn't this a clear attempt to ruin my reputation?
It's impossible to ignore this matter.
The night is dark, the moon is bright and the stars are few.
A gust of breeze blew by, cooling my scalp.
Li Chen pondered for a moment and suddenly came up with an idea.
"Senior brother, how about that? Just subdue the demons directly?"
Li Sao's eyes shone brightly, and since he came down the mountain, his anger has only increased day by day.
Li Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "We will discuss this matter in the long run."
"It's getting late today, let's rest for a night before we talk."
Indeed, during this period of time, the three of them traveled from east to west, almost crossing the entire Fei Luzhou.
It is indeed hard work to eat and sleep in the open air every day and sleep with nothing but clothes on.
In this way, the three of them went back to their rooms and finally had a peaceful sleep.
A night of silence.
The next morning, the genius was bright.
Jinsang City was awakened by a cry.
The people in the city looked over one after another, but it turned out that it was Old Man Wu, the head of the Wu family's cakes, who was crying for his mother-in-law.
"What's wrong with the martial arts master? Why is there such a big noise so early in the morning? It's like mourning."
Crowds began to gather on both sides of the road.
At this time, a well-informed person whispered: "Oh, it's really just a mourning."
"Last night, Mrs. Wu Pan drank the 'sacred water' and died~"
"What? No one is alive?"
The man nodded meaningfully: "Oh, this Wu Dalang is also unlucky."
"Originally, these cooking cakes are selling well, and we can be considered a wealthy family in Jinsang City."
"My son joined the army in his prime, and his life or death was uncertain, leaving only two old men as companions."
"Who would have thought that now my mother-in-law would be infected with this damn plague."
"Alas, such a large family has been ruined and all that is left is this small building in front of us."
"As a result, the money is gone and the people are gone. It's pitiful, pitiful."
Passers-by shook their heads as he spoke, and some even burst into tears.
But one person in the crowd said loudly: "If you ask me, Sister-in-law of the Wu family is doing well!"
"If you contract the disease, it will be less painful if you leave early."
"It's better than being troubled by those monster monks!"
Everyone was shuddered when they heard this and looked back, but they felt sad and had some sympathy on their faces.
The person speaking was none other than Boss Shen of the silk and satin shop on this street.
Originally, his silk and satin business was booming, and he was one of the leading figures in Jinsang City.
But because his only son was infected with the plague, others sold him ten taels of gold for a bowl of 'sacred water'.
Nowadays, it has also declined and only a facade remains.
"He is also a poor man."
"No one should look at anyone else's busy house."
"Yesterday it was the Shen family, today it is the Wu family, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there will be the Zhang family, the Wang family, the Li family, the Zhao family..."
While everyone was sighing, the cry and howl of Old Man Wu gradually faded away.
"Oh, this martial arts man is a real man!"
"He is going to push my mother-in-law's body to Dizang Temple to ask for a Dharma!"
"What? So brave?"
Everyone looked intently and saw old man Wu dressed in sackcloth pushing a cart in the middle of the street.
His cries of grief could be heard from the street to the end of the alley, and all the onlookers shed tears when they heard it. It was like a couple with a deep love for each other.
Looking at the cart again, Mrs. Wu Pan was lying on the cart, covered with a layer of white cloth, covering it tightly.
On a tall building where Old Man Wu passed by, Li Sao said with a smile: "Brother, I didn't expect that Old Man Wu's acting skills were really good."
After a night of careful consideration, Li Chen decided to outsmart him.
First, because the other party's true background is not clear, and the other party is considered a local snake, so the three of them may not be their opponents.
The second reason is because Li Chen wanted to expose these liars in front of the people of Jinsang City.
Give justice to the people and give yourself innocence.
Li Chen glanced at the cart and raised his lips: "I just feel a little wronged, senior brother."
The person inside the cart was not Mr. Wu Pan, but Mr. Li Ge.
Originally, Li Chen wanted Li Sao to go in, but he was really afraid that she would snore after falling asleep inside.
If the snoring comes out while walking, it will really be a waste of time.
"Brother of the Wu family, please wait for us! We are also going to mourn!"
But a down-and-out scholar walked out of the crowd. He also had a white cloth tied around his waist and held two pieces of paper in his hands.
It says 'Wang Tanshi' on the left and 'Wang Qiuli' on the right.
"That's... that's... Wang Zaishi!
This is our great scholar in Jinsang City.
I saw him in high spirits a few years ago, why is he like this now?!"
"Hey, I'm afraid brother doesn't know, Wang Zaoshi is crazy."
"What's going on? How could a great scholar go crazy?!"
"Well, it's a long story. Not long ago, the Wang Tan family also unfortunately contracted the plague."
"Wang Zaoshi had no choice but to buy divine water to cure his illness."
"But those monks seemed to have taken advantage of him. They refused to accept money or sell him the sacred water."
"If Miss Wang is destined to have a relationship with the Buddha, then she must enter the temple."
"Isn't this nonsense! What connection does a girl's family have with Buddha?!"
"Miss Wang is a well-known beauty in our Jinsang City. She also comes from a scholarly family and is well-educated and sensible."
"Before I left the court, the doorstep of my home had already been trampled to pieces by the matchmaker."
"Those monks have already made plans to do this."
"Master Wang is well-versed in matters, so how could he not see their thoughts?"
"But how could he be willing to send his daughter into a pit of fire?"
"So I could only watch helplessly as the voice of the woman in front of me gradually faded away."
"But I didn't expect that Miss Wang is a filial daughter, and she actually..."
