Liaozhai: A Poor Monk Transcends to Immortal

Chapter 4
"Then how was the donor captured?"

"It's a long story. Xiaosheng's family name is Chen, his given name is Yi, and his courtesy name is Yunqiao. He is a student of Yonghuai County School. Although his family is poor, he can barely make ends meet. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and his mother was finally bedridden after a long illness. Passed away a month ago. In order to bury my old mother, I had no choice but to borrow a loan from Plum Blossom Casino at a high interest rate. Because I was slow to repay the debt, I was imprisoned here by those villains. "

Xu Zisu nodded after hearing this.

"Donor, what is the origin of this Plum Blossom Gambling House? You dare to imprison people privately. Are you afraid that the Yamen will pursue you?"

"Little master, I don't know. This Meihua Gambling House is the property of the Meihua Gang, the largest gang in Yonghuai County. The Meihua Gang does evil things and bullies good people. They also open gambling houses and brothels in the county, which have made countless It’s very abominable to have people’s families destroyed and displaced.”

"Does the Yamen not care?"

"Haha, the officials and the gangsters colluded, worked together, and worked together. The Plum Blossom Gang usually pays a lot of money. How can the county magistrate embarrass the Plum Blossom Gang because of the white money?"

Xu Zisu frowned and looked at the darkened sky. The people's lives were miserable, and it was like this in just one county. How bad would the whole Jin Dynasty be?

However, this is exactly what he wants,

My generation of monks, we should save the world and create a ray of light for this dark world.

Let’s start with this scholar first.

Xu Zisu's eyes fell on the white-faced scholar soaking in the water tank.

"Has the donor ever regretted it?"

"Huh? Are you asking me, little master?"

"There are only two of us here. Of course the young monk is asking the donor."

"Regret what?"

A trace of doubt appeared on the scholar's pale face, and then he asked.

Looking at the scholar's blank face, Xu Zisu shook his head helplessly.

"Since the donor doesn't know, then the young monk will remind the donor why the donor drowned in this big vat. Do you still remember?"

That's right, the scholar is already dead now, and all that's left in the water tank is his soul.

Hearing Xu Zisu's words, the scholar couldn't help but be startled, and then a look of incomparable panic appeared on his face. However, as time passed, the panic gradually turned into a ferocious look. Wisps of black energy spread all over his face, coupled with his pale complexion, it looked like It's chilling to watch.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Xu Zisu's face.

"It seems that the donor has remembered everything."

"I remembered."

"Then the young monk asked the donor again, has he ever regretted it?"

Hearing Xu Zisu's question, the ferocious white face suddenly became excited, and finally he buried his head in tears.

"Young master, I regret it. It's too late for me to regret it."

Looking at the scholar crying in pain in the water tank, Xu Zisu showed no mercy at all on his face.

There is a saying: Poor people must be hateful.

He also went down the mountain once six months ago, and that time he came to Yonghuai County to pray for a deceased family.

However, when eating in the inn, he heard a story: Yonghuai Chen, originally a nobleman in the county, encountered an accident when he went out to do business, leaving a wife and an ignorant student at home, and it was difficult to support the family. Since then, the family fortune has declined.

Although the Chen family was in decline, the wife of the Chen family only wanted that ignorant student to go to high school and shine, and she overworked herself all day long. In the end, she still did not escape the consequences of illness.

After that, the scholar who should have been working tirelessly had to go out to seek medicine for his mother.

He even took out loan sharks at high interest rates.

If the story ended here, it would be an allusion to a filial son.

Unfortunately, there is still the second half:
In the end, the scholar chose to enter a gambling house in order to ask for money. In the end, instead of winning the money to save his mother, he became a compulsive gambler and owed a lot of debt.

Although, I only heard this part of his story at that time,

But looking at the scholar's appearance now, there is no need to say much about the consequences.

He was originally a hard-working student, but by one mistake he became a gambler and a manipulator of fortune.

"Amitabha."

"The young monk is willing to send the donor on his last journey. I wonder what the donor's plan is?"

"Thank you, little master. It's time for me to go to the eighteenth level of hell to atone for my sins." Some people always choose to escape after doing something wrong, but this scholar chose to forget after death, probably because he wanted to escape from reality. After all, Indirectly killing his mother, in this era, no one can accept it.

Unless you really have no conscience at all.

As Xu Zisu recited Ksitigarbha's Original Vow Sutra, Chen Yi gradually disappeared into the water tank.

[Saving a dead soul will reward you with a point of merit and mastery of the Four Books and Five Classics. 】

Four Books and Five Classics?

Is it possible to let me go to the exam as a monk?
Forget it!

the night passed,
early morning,

A fierce man with a face full of flesh walked in with several big men who tied him up yesterday.

"Brother Bao, this little monk wants to eat for free but won't pay for it."

The man called Brother Bao looked at him for a moment and frowned involuntarily.

"Little monk, which temple monk are you from?"

"Pudu, a disciple of Elder Faming of Jinshan Temple, has met all the donors."

Jinshan Temple,
Fa Ming,

After Xu Zisu uttered these words, the expressions of several people led by Brother Bao suddenly became uncomfortable.

"What a good boy, he is actually a disciple of Jinshan Temple. In that case, let's settle the old and new accounts together."

Brother Leopard smiled coldly and waved his hand at his subordinates.

He took out a leather whip made of unknown material.

"Your master Fa Ming not only ate for free at my Hongyun Restaurant, but also had a romantic night at my Fengyue Restaurant. Who will pay for the young monk's company?"

Xu Zisu:······
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly and he cursed secretly.

Is this old monk such a trick on his disciples?

Ugh!
However, this style of life is very similar to what he can manage.

"Amitabha."

"Donor, the monk has already said that he doesn't have any money. As for the debt owed by my master, let him repay it by himself."

"No?"

"Hehe, then don't blame me. If it wasn't for your master running fast, you might not know where you are now."

"Call me."

Looking at the whip that emitted cold light, Xu Zisu frowned slightly. If he hit him like this, it would probably break a layer of skin. Although he was not afraid, he couldn't let others slaughter him.

"Almsgiver, I would like to advise the almsgiver that it is better to do more good deeds in the future, and if you do evil again, you will not be punished."

"retribution?"

"Hehe, what a joke!"

Hearing Xu Zisu's words, several big men on the side showed inexplicable smiles at the same time.

"Little monk, I tell you, in this Yonghuai County, I am retribution."

With a ferocious smile, he was about to whip Xu Zisu with the whip in his hand.

"Amitabha."

"Donor, this young monk has no bad habits."

"Also, Xiao Monk's father has been dead for many years."

As he said that, under the horrified eyes of all the big men, the binding ropes were broken inch by inch, and the monk had a heart-stopping smile on his face.
