"I was caught in the act of cheating with a savage man, leaving my life behind and bringing shame to Luohe Town!"
"Throw it into the river, why bother? We are still waiting to see!"
…
The people of Luohe Town on both sides of the river were shouting loudly. The man by the bamboo cage came over, without looking at his wife in the cage, and hugged the people in the surrounding towns.
"Fellow folks, this kind of embarrassing thing happened in our family. It really brings shame to everyone along with me. I will do my best and throw this shameless woman into the river!"
The cold river wind blew on her face, and the woman huddled in the cage, her hair swaying in front of her eyes, looked at the man who was speaking angrily over there, blurred by the overflowing tears.
The woman is in her early forties and has two children.
At an ignorant age, she was married by her aunt. She remembered that day when she was the most beautiful, wearing red clothes, sitting in a flower stand, and being carried into the house by a man amidst the laughter of many villagers.
At that time, it was just a small courtyard with a fence, and the family was often unable to open the fire. She never complained. She tried her best to help the man, take care of the house for him, and let him go out to do business with the merchants in the town without worries.
After a few years, the family finally had some savings and gave birth to their first child, a boy. Unfortunately, he died in less than a hundred days. She was dragged out of bed by her husband and beaten all over.
A few years later, the family became wealthy and had spare money to buy a small house in the town. They also had a second child, a girl. The man took one look at her and left home.
She didn't cry or complain. Before she had finished confinement, she got out of bed and took care of everything at home, taking care of her parents-in-law and the children...
I still haven’t complained about my husband.
The third year after I moved to town, I welcomed my third child, a girl.
The man got angry this time and dragged her out of bed and beat her. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law stood at the door with no intention of trying to dissuade her. It wasn't until the man was tired from beating her that they came in to bandage the woman's head, which was covered in blood.
Life later became difficult, and the man began to rarely come home. Later, the neighbor's aunt told her that her husband had raised a small child.
The woman didn't make a fuss. She knew some things. Even her parents and uncles and aunts from far away wouldn't support her, so she could only keep this matter in her stomach.
Seeing that the two children are getting bigger and bigger and can run around the hospital, my belly is always flat and it is difficult to get pregnant.
I thought it would just be an ordinary life, guarding my two daughters.
If it continues like this, it might be a good thing.
But one day, a man came back from outside holding a swaddled baby boy. It was a cute baby boy. Her parents-in-law and mother-in-law couldn't stop laughing. The whole family gathered around the pink child and entered the room, leaving her alone.
In the courtyard.
Not long after, a strange man jumped over the wall into the house and dragged her into the room.
The woman struggled and fought, but the man still tore the hem of her robe and skirt apart. Just when she thought Qingbai had been defiled by him, her husband came back and brought several people with him.
Most likely, her husband would open the strange man and rescue her, but unfortunately he guessed wrong. He said that she had a secret meeting with a wild man, and after beating the strange man away, he locked her in a bamboo cage.
Like the bamboo cage that has been prepared for a long time, it is very new and the size is just right.
Her thoughts stopped and she returned to the noisy river bank. The noisy shouts echoed clearly in her ears. In her vision blurred by tears, her husband came over and squatted in front of her.
"Don't blame me, it's your fault that you can't give birth to a son."
The unkempt woman knew she was going to die. Her eyes were red, but she didn't cry. She just looked at her husband in front of her, opened her chapped lips, and whispered:
"...Take good care of the two children and don't let them suffer."
The man said nothing, nodded, stood up and left. Several men came over and lifted up the bamboo cage with smiles. The woman held on to the bamboo cage without crying, but just looked at the back of the people walking away.
The husband wants reputation, and only if she does something extraordinary can he marry another woman without being talked about behind her back.
"If I die...he should take good care of the two children..."
In a brief thought, the bamboo cage was thrown into the air, the woman's field of vision was also flying, and the laughter and noise around her reached its maximum volume at the moment of falling into the water.
boom!
There was a sound of falling into the water, and the bamboo cage containing the missing woman splashed half a foot high in the water and quickly sank to the bottom of the river.
After the spreading ripples calmed down with the water waves, the people in the town watched the excitement with excitement. After shouting a few times, they dispersed in twos and threes and returned to the town. In the past few days, they had plenty to talk about after tea and dinner.
.
…
In the Luohan Hall, Chen Yuan, Zhenhai, and the fat Taoist pursed their lips, and the old monk Zhenhai tightened his Zen staff, and the nine rings shook and jingled.
The monk's sleeves brushed the golden bowl, and the scene in the halo changed again.
It's still that big river.
But it was late at night, and a chubby figure walked to the river. It had a round face, a beard, and a blue robe, looking at the flowing river in a slightly trance.
Then, the water surface exploded, and the bamboo cage broke out of the water and slowly landed at the Taoist's feet.
"I come back……"
With a choked voice, he tore open the woven bamboo strips, picked up the stiff and white woman inside, and turned around to walk into the mountains.
This night, there was a low cry with a cry in the forest, and a tomb was piled on the mountainside of yellow mud.
The Taoist priest carved the tombstone with his finger and wrote: Tomb of Beloved Wife.
Not long after, he came to the small town. A drunken man saw him dressed up and approached him with a smile. "The Taoist priest is also here to have a wedding banquet? Come on, hurry up, the wedding banquet hasn't been withdrawn yet, and there will be a new scene later..."
…”
The Taoist walked over, but the drunkard was already slumped on the ground, his eyes were dull, and a large amount of blood seeped out from under his body and stained the area red. Visible to the naked eye, he quickly withered and turned into a pile of white bones.
The pedestrians who saw this scene were about to scream when they suddenly grabbed their throats, twitched twice and fell to the ground. Half of the street that the Taoist passed by turned into blood as he passed by.
blanket.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When he came to the noisy house, looking at the hanging red lanterns and the 囍 characters posted, he narrowed his eyes. After a moment, he walked in and saw the lively banquet.
There were exclamations and screams, and someone rushed out of the door, then tripped and was dragged back into the courtyard out of thin air.
Soon, the Taoist pulled a struggling and shouting man out. A large amount of blood overflowed the threshold of the house and flowed to the street outside.
"There are no good people here."
He whispered something, lifted the man in his hand and raised it in front of him. Seeing the fear on the other person's face, the Taoist held the other person's head expressionlessly.
"She is so good...why do you have to let her down?"
"It's really disgusting, even more disgusting than a demon."
The Taoist forcefully pulled off the man's head, and a faint purple mist filled his body, sticking to the ground and spreading to the entire town.
The next day, outsiders discovered that except for two girls, there was no one alive in Luohe Town.
…
The golden light surged, taking back the picture and restoring the golden bowl to its original appearance.
Chen Yuan and the other two people standing aside fell into silence. The chubby Taoist priest knew without guessing that he was transformed into a toad demon. Chen Yuan sighed.
"That's why I want to find out why he killed someone first."
"The human heart is more terrifying than ghosts." Sun Zhengde muttered, looking at the old monk Zhenkong, "Your daughter suffered such a thing, are you not sad at all?"
The gold bowl is empty, the vertical seal is printed and the head is bowed.
"When you escape into Buddhism, all the four elements are empty. Although the mortal world is over, your relatives are still here, so I bothered my junior brother to go there."
Zhenhai looked at Zijinbo, who had long since disappeared from the screen, and was silent for a long time before he spoke and praised: "Good kill!"
However, he just praised it and said: "But the killing is indiscriminate killing. The people in the town, including innocent people, act indiscriminately based on the anger in their hearts. Even if I don't kill it, I will kill it."
Become a toad again."
In fact, Chen Yuan and the others could hear that Monk Zhenhai had already relented.
.
Zhenkong on the side handed over the purple gold bowl in his hand: "Junior brother, please use my golden bowl to punish it. You will be punished by yourself."
Zhenhai took a look and saw that it was one of the most precious treasures of Wanfo Temple, no worse than his cassock.
"Humph, I haven't agreed yet."
Monk Zhenhai took the purple gold bowl, turned around and went straight with his Zen staff.
"Duplicity." The fat Taoist whispered.
After the young master of Luohan Hall left him alone, there was a moment of silence. Chen Yuan still had something unclear, so he asked Zhenkong: "Master, why can your golden bowl drop it? How to punish it?"
"hehe."
Zhenkong raised his seal, chuckled, turned around and walked towards the Crescent Gate, "There is a poor monk in the golden bowl who has been cultivating for decades to change the fate of the toad demon and let it go through hardships and sharpen its mind... The poor monk is a little girl.
Repay the favor."
"My Buddha is compassionate!"
He shouted the Buddha's name and disappeared outside the Crescent Moon Gate.
