Chapter 13 Give me an identity

At night, the whole city of Yanzhou Prefecture was under curfew, and patrol soldiers patrolled the streets one after another to ensure that no thieves could commit crimes in the city.

Most of the people have fallen into a deep sleep at this time, preparing for the busy work tomorrow.

The only place in the city that still had lights on was Su He's mansion.

Tonight, he asked all the servants and maids to rest early, while he stayed alone in his son's room, not even his wife stayed.

Outside their room, several dead soldiers hiding in the dark were alert to the surrounding situation.

Su He has ordered that anyone who dares to approach this room tonight will be killed.

During the day, he had asked most doctors in the city to check on his son's condition, and the final result was almost the same as what the first doctor said.

It's just that these people were afraid of the emperor's wrath and refused to tell his son's pain.

But their coy attitude had explained everything to Su He.

His son was Su He's heart and soul, and it was impossible for him to just watch his son being entangled in these filth and tortured to death.

squeak-

The door was pushed open at this time, and a dead soldier came in with the old woman from Crock Alley.

When the old woman saw the child lying on the bed, a strange smile appeared on her face. She stretched out her hand to stop Su He who was about to speak and said, "Stop talking, let me see the child's condition first!"

After saying that, she strode to the bed to see Su He's child.

Su He couldn't stand the choking smell on her body, so he took a few steps back before asking, "How is it!"

The old woman didn't reply, but stretched out her dark and shriveled hand like a chicken's claw and put it on the child's head and stroked it twice.

As she touched him, the child on the bed suddenly began to twitch, and a large amount of thick black phlegm appeared in his mouth again.

When Su He saw this, he quickly yelled: "What are you doing!"

Following his words, the dead man guarding him immediately stepped forward and pinned the old woman down beside the bed.

Su He hurriedly went to check on the child's condition.

"Haha, if you want your child to survive, you'd better believe me, otherwise he won't see the sun tomorrow!"

"Are you cursing my son?"

Su He shouted angrily, and the dead man immediately pulled out a dagger from his waist. As soon as Su He gave the order, he would plunge the dagger into the old woman's neck, guaranteed to kill her with one blow!
Facing the gleaming dagger, the old woman did not panic at all, but said proudly: "If you don't believe me, your son will die. Even if you kill me, he will still die. You will pay the price for your impulse! "

The old woman's words made Su He calm down.

He held his son in his arms and asked the dead man to let go of the old woman, and asked in a cold voice: "If you can't save my son, I promise to make you suffer and die. I used to be an official in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and I am the best at criminal law!"

The old woman got up and shook her neck, which was numb from the weight of the dead soldier, and said, "I won't let you down!"

"Then tell me how to treat my son!"

"Simple, he was just bewitched by a wild charm with a low level of cultivation. If he wants to save people, he only needs to go to the City God's Temple to dig out some gold shavings from the top of the golden body of the City God and give it to the young master!" "

"No!"

Su He immediately rejected the old woman's proposal.

The Chenghuang Temple and the Wenwu Temple are both temples that suppress one's luck in the mountains and rivers. The gods in them are all consecrated by the emperor himself. Isn't it a joke to dig gold on his head?
Insulting these gods is a bigger crime than secretly inviting a goddess into your home.He would never risk the lives of all nine clans in order to save his son.

"Then there is no better way. How about sending your son to the temple to become a monk? This can also save his life!"

"Are you kidding me? My son is going to get a degree in the future. Being a monk is not his destiny. You'd better think of another way, otherwise you will die tonight!"

In order to save his son, Su He could no longer care so much.

It’s just a goddess, so what if I kill her!
Seeing that he was really murderous, the old woman seemed a little frightened. She retreated to the wall and said, "There is a way, but the price is higher!"

"Say!"

"Yes, yes. In fact, the method is very simple. It is to find the statues in the temples in the countryside that are full of incense, smash their golden bodies and find the few golden body fragments. If you add up a few pieces, you can save them. Your life!"

The so-called obscene temples are those temples that are not recognized by the court, and most of them are built voluntarily by the common people.

Although the incense in the Yin Temple is far less prosperous than in orthodox temples such as the Chenghuang Temple or the Wen Mo Temple, most of them are the spiritual sustenance of the people. With the incense offered by everyone, a little bit of golden body fragments will be born in the statues.

Some cultivators will specifically pick out the temples that are full of incense and take away the fragments of the golden body that were formed there.

Su He had heard similar rumors before, and had also heard about the idea that golden body fragments could ward off evil spirits.

He had always thought that this was just a trick of a charlatan, but he didn't expect that this matter would fall on him today.

But compared to sending your son to be a monk or digging for gold on the head of the City God, this method is worth a try.

Not to mention whether this method is useful, even if it is useless, if he eradicates several prostitution temples, no one in the court will make a big fuss about it, and it will still be a political achievement if it is spread to the ears of the emperor.

So Su Hedang even decided to attack the Temple of Obscenity.

As for the target, he almost instantly thought of the Snake Fairy Temple in Laiyang County.

Looking at the large and small counties under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou Prefecture, only the Snake Immortal Temple has the strongest incense and the most trust among the villagers.

And he heard that the Snake Fairy Temple has been standing there for more than 30 years, and there is incense every day.

What's more important is that there is more than one Snake Immortal Temple. Calculating this, maybe just this Snake Immortal is enough to save his son.

Making a prompt decision, Su Hedang immediately ordered the deceased to go to Laiyang County to investigate in person.

At this time, the old woman suddenly stopped and said: "No, if you want to use the golden body fragments in the statue of the Yin Temple to save your son, you must ensure that the fragments are intact. Only I can do this, so you only need to give me an identity to go to the Yin Temple. Just take the village and leave the rest to me!”

"you alone?"

"Yes, I am alone, but you must also send some people to protect me to prevent the villagers from rioting and damaging the golden body fragments. In addition, you must also take your son over there. As long as I take out the golden body fragments, You can directly get rid of the wild charm for your son, this matter should be done sooner rather than later!"

After hearing what the old woman said, Su Hedang nodded and said: "These are all small things, let's set off now!"

"Wait a minute, you haven't arranged a suitable identity for me yet!"

The old woman stood in front of Su He and said solemnly.

Su He was anxious at this time and said casually: "Just say you are a guest in my house!"

When the old woman heard this, she immediately showed a sly smile, bowed and said, "Thank you, sir, for giving me your identity!"
