Chapter 4
"The boy's name is Li Mingxue, and his father is Li Shangming. He has two brothers and a sister. The immortals must already know these things."

"The reason why it looks like this now is because the boy died unjustly. I hope the immortal can make the decision for the boy."

Li's third son, Li Mingxue, looked at Jiang Wen with a mournful face, and then told everything about him.

"This matter started half a month ago..."

After listening to what he said, Jiang Wen understood the matter of Li Mingxue falling into the water.

It turns out that Li Mingxue did not fall into the water accidentally, but someone did it deliberately.Li Mingxue's father had served as a minister, and his two brothers were both officials in the court.The family is prosperous and prosperous, so there are naturally followers who want to follow the trend.

Li Mingxue always loved to have fun, and Mr. Li always doted on him when he had a son.Over time, Li Mingxue developed a dandy style.Although he did not harm the people everywhere, he was indispensable for being arrogant and domineering. There were many "good deeds" of Li Mingxue spread in southern Fujian.

It is also true that those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black. Those who are upright do not want to make friends with Li Mingxue. Naturally, these friends are mostly fox friends.

One day Li Mingxue was joking with someone and said that there are no beautiful women in southern Fujian like there are in Beijing.This remark was immediately refuted by his friend, who sent him a stunning beauty that night.

When Li Mingxue saw the beauty, he suddenly lost two of his three souls, so he stayed on the boat to spend the spring night with the beauty.

I never thought that after this spring night, the beauty would jump into the water and die early in the morning.When Li Mingxue learned about this, he was dumbfounded and felt panicked and anxious.So he asked his friend about the origin of this woman, and found out that her friend was passing by a farmer's house and saw such a beauty in his house, so he sent someone to snatch her to his house.

Originally I wanted to enjoy it alone, but when I heard Li Mingxue's words, I gave the beauty to him.It's a pity that the beauty has a strong personality and committed suicide.

Li Mingxue was very angry. His family had always been strict. If Mr. Li learned about this, he would probably be beaten to death.He thought about keeping it secret, so he gave his friend money to support the beauty's family, so as not to let his father know about the matter.

Thinking that the matter was settled, Li Mingxue didn't take it to heart anymore.Unexpectedly, one night his friend came looking for him, and it was the beauty's brother who came to ask for an explanation.Li Mingxue went to the appointment in the middle of the night, preparing to discuss how to resolve the matter with the other party. Unexpectedly, he lost his life while there.

"That man teamed up with the man named Su and got me drunk and threw me into the water. In the end, I drowned in the water and was unconscious. I heard my father's call back to the house while half awake." Li Mingxue said, his face pale. There was a lonely look on his face.

"When I woke up, I found that I had been dead for a long time. Just thinking that the thief was still alive made me full of resentment. I wanted to tell my father about this, but I couldn't get close to him, so I had to think of other ways. To attract father’s attention.”

After Li Mingxue finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Wen expectantly.Although his expression was somewhat awe-inspiring, his heart remained undiminished.

"So you want me to tell Mr. Li about this for you, so that he can help you relieve your resentment?" Jiang Wen frowned slightly, feeling that something was very wrong about this matter.

"Exactly, I hope the immortal can fulfill my wish for the boy." Li Mingxue bowed deeply to Jiang Wen, and his originally inhuman face gradually took on a human look. "If this matter can be settled, the boy will have no complaints in his heart."

When Jiang Wen heard this, he closed his eyes and didn't know what to think.After a long time, he sighed, nodded slightly towards Li Mingxue and said: "In that case, I will take over your matter. After reincarnating in the underworld, don't do such evil things."

"Young man knows his own sins, defiling innocent people and harming people's lives. Even if he goes to hell and becomes a beast, he is willing to do so. If he becomes an adult in the next life, he will be a good person even if he eats the roots and gnaws the skin." Li Mingxue said calmly, and then turned towards Jiang. Wen bowed again, and his figure slowly disappeared into the bedroom.

When he disappeared, the silent Li Mansion returned to life.The sound of banging on the night patrol and the chirping of insects in the grass and trees all came like a tide.

Jiang Wen opened his eyes and looked at the top of the bed carved with red lacquer wood.At this time, outside the window, the sky was already bright.

"It was a strange dream." Jiang Wen muttered to himself.Then he seemed to feel something and looked down at the edge of the bed.I saw a shallow pool of water slowly dissipating beside the edge of the bed.

"It turns out it wasn't a dream." He suddenly smiled.

...It was getting brighter, and Li's mansion started to get busy.

Jiang Wen and Mr. Li stood in the middle hall, looking at the coffin that had been placed for a long time.

The nave is decorated with white cloth hangings, and a large bronze cauldron stands in front of the coffin.Three long incense sticks as thick as a finger were inserted into the cauldron. White smoke slowly rose up and dissipated in the air.

"This is my son's coffin." Mr. Li said with a sad voice. "Please ask the Immortal to let him rest in peace as soon as possible."

"Master Li, please feel at ease. I will let you find peace." Jiang Wen nodded with a smile.Holding the floating dust in one hand and the golden bowl filled with water in the other, he walked around the coffin.

The voice was loud and upright, chanting the Taoist Sutra of Rebirth.

"The Heavenly Lord Who Saves Suffering fills the realms of the ten directions and always saves all sentient beings with his majestic power..."

The ups and downs of the intonation give it a sense of drama, which is a unique feature of Taoist chanting scriptures.

The Rebirth Mantra, also known as the "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Miao Sutra for Saving Suffering," is a Taoist scripture that saves the souls of the dead.Jiang Wen had been exposed to such scriptures since he was a child, so he was quite familiar with memorizing them.After all, as a Taoist priest, he still has to have this specialty, and he cannot let others think that he is a fake Taoist priest.

Stepping on the Tiangang Steps, pinching the fingers with your hands.After wandering around for two times, Jiang Wen stopped and frowned.

"what?"

There was a sound of doubt, and Mr. Li hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Immortal, what happened?"

Jiang Wen closed his eyes and counted with his fingers, then looked at Mr. Li with a solemn expression: "The poor Taoist encountered something strange when he was just saving your son. After doing some calculations, he realized there was something fishy."

"What's wrong!" Mr. Li asked quickly.

"My son's deceased soul cannot rest in peace. Pindao originally thought it was caused by missing his relatives. But just after contacting him, I realized that his soul was extremely resentful and was filled with injustice." Jiang Wen closed his eyes and spoke out the words he had prepared. "I think there must be a hidden reason for your son's death, otherwise there would be no resentment."

"Xian, what the immortal means..." Mr. Li's eyes widened and his lips trembled. He pointed at the coffin in the hall and looked at Jiang Wen with a sad expression.

"It's exactly what Mr. Li thought. I'm afraid your son's death was caused by someone else."

"Bam—!!"

Mr. Li staggered and trembled all over.He kicked the porcelain buried beside him to the ground, letting the valuable porcelain break into pieces.

"Tomorrow! Dad knows your injustice!" Mr. Li called his youngest son's name sadly, holding the coffin and crying bitterly.

After hearing the news, everyone in the Li Mansion came over and tried to comfort Mr. Li to ensure his health.

After a long time, Mr. Li calmed down.The whole person looked at everyone present with a cold face.

"Ming'er's death is definitely not an accident. Don't think that I can be deceived when I am old. I will definitely find out the cause of Ming'er's death and make this man pay with blood!"
