I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 416 Marriage Certificate (asking for monthly ticket)

Taoist priests are respected and treated well wherever they go. When Yao Zhen came to the Ning family, he was treated as a guest of honor as soon as he arrived.

The Ning family has two sons and two daughters. The eldest wife, Ning Fang, has passed away. The second son was conscripted into the army last year. The only people at home are the wife he married before leaving, the ten-year-old third wife, and the eight-year-old fourth son.

The second son’s wife looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was pregnant and about to give birth.

Upon learning that Yaozhen came to ask about Ning Fang, Ning Changfu drove everyone in the family back into the house and asked his wife Zhou to talk to Yaozhen and Sangque. Since it involved his daughter's affairs, it would be difficult for him, a man, to say anything.

After everyone left, only Zhou, Yaozhen and Sangque were left in the main hall of the Ning family.

Zhou knelt down in front of Yaozhen and cried, "Kun Dao, please save my Fang'er. She has never hurt anyone. We were deceived by others, which is why she is like this. The day-traveling masters in the city don't care at all. There is nothing we can do."

Yaozhen was quick to pull Zhou up from the ground and said, "Get up and talk."

Zhou wiped away her tears with her sleeves and no longer hid anything from Yao Zhen, who was able to help her.

"In fact, we were all deceived by the matchmaker and the Wang family. The matchmaker said that the master of the Wang family married two concubines but they didn't give birth to a son, so he wanted to marry another one to continue the family line. He said that he had seen Fang'er in Zhang's embroidery workshop and fell in love with her at first sight. The matchmaker also said that not only would she give fifty taels of silver as a betrothal gift, but she could also use her connections to bring my Erlang back. In the future, when my Silang grows up, he won't be arrested for corvée because of the Wang family's connection."

"I was blinded by greed. I gave up Fang'er for the sake of my two sons! I didn't expect that the matchmaker and the Wang family were deceiving us. They wanted to trick my Fang'er into marrying their dead youngest son! His youngest son was a sex-hungry ghost. He couldn't rest in peace after dying in a woman's belly. My Fang'er was killed by him!"

Sang Que was listening silently and looking around. She could sense the presence of evil spirits in the house. Just now on the way to Ning's house, she also felt the same aura in several other households.

And there are two of them, which means there is not only Ning Fang but also another evil spirit here.

But evil spirits don’t appear during the day, so Sangque can’t find any trace of them.

Yao Zhen asked pointedly, "Has Ning Fang's life certificate been given to the Wang family?"

Zhou nodded with despair in her eyes. This was the reason for Ning Fang's death.

The whole thing is actually very simple. The youngest son of the Wang family turned into an evil spirit after his death. The Wang family then found Ning Fang to arrange a marriage for him. They took Ning Fang's fate letter and asked someone to make a marriage certificate. This marriage certificate was naturally not an ordinary one.

In this case, the youngest son of the Wang family will definitely marry Ning Fang.

Ning Fang committed suicide because she could not bear the humiliation and was forced to do so. She thought she could escape by death, but she didn't know that as long as the marriage certificate was still there, she would always be locked up next to the youngest son of the Wang family.

Yao Zhen asked, "What is the relationship between this Wang family and the Wang family, one of the three richest merchants in Jinzhou?"

Zhou said in a deep voice, "He is a descendant of the Wang family. How can we country folks find out the name of the master of the Wang family? We don't even know the name of the youngest son."

Yaozhen asked some other questions, and then took Sangque to visit several families in the village who said they had seen Ning Fang after her death.

To sum up, Yao Zhen has some speculation.

Ning Fang probably had good intentions and was protecting the people in the village.

Wherever Ning Fang appeared, there were women in the house, and these women had some erotic dreams on the night of the accident. At the critical moment, they were awakened by the sudden sound of the loom in the house. Seeing the dead Ning Fang weaving, they were so scared that they went to find their family members to accompany them and dared not sleep all night.

Yaozhen concluded that the pervert from the Wang family was still in the village. If it weren't for Ning Fang, many girls would have been harmed by him.

This also shows that Ning Fang is strong-willed and can resist the restrictions of the marriage certificate and the manipulation of the pervert. If she is approached by this guy, she will not really lose her virginity, but such behavior will weaken the vitality of those women and make them thinner day by day. If this continues, they will die of illness within a year.

After understanding the whole story, Yaozhen said that the matter must be solved from the source and it was useless to stay in the village, so he returned to Sanchuan City with Sangque.

Before nightfall, Sang Que used teleportation to bring Yao Zhen back quickly. Along the way, Yao Zhen ignored Sang Que and was indifferent when he spoke, which made Sang Que feel guilty.

Before dusk, the two returned to Sanchuan City and met Zhang Junyao at Zhangji Grain Store in the west of the city.

After explaining the situation, Zhang Junyao pondered for a moment, "The Wang family's illegitimate branch, whose youngest son just died, is also a lecher. I should know who he is. As long as I get the marriage certificate, I can get rid of this lecher and set Ning Fang free, right?"

At this time, Zhang Junyao didn't think about controlling the evil spirit. She sympathized with Ning Fang's situation and really wanted to rescue Ning Fang.

Sangque looked at Yaozhen, and Yaozhen nodded lightly.

Zhang Junyao nodded, "You've worked hard this time. Leave the marriage certificate to me. Wait for my news."

After saying that, Zhang Junyao took people out. It was just a concubine branch of Wang family. With the resources she now had, she could ask the legitimate branch of Wang family to personally deliver the marriage certificate to her in the business world.

Sangque and Yaozhen had nothing to do for the time being. Sangque felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she saw Yaozhen seemed to be ignoring her.

Sang Que pulled Yao Zhen's sleeve and said, "Come on, come on, I'll take you to the most expensive restaurant in the city for a good meal. You order the dishes and I'll pay the bill. It's my apology, okay?"

Yao Zhen curled his lips, "That's more like it!"

Sang Que changed his clothes and put a mole on the corner of his eye. He asked Yin Tong to find Cheng Ge and Jia Liang through the snake poison. The four of them had a meal together in the best restaurant in the city and talked about what happened that day.

For the next two days, there was no news from Zhang Junyao, and Sang Que had nothing to do, so he accompanied Yao Zhen to set up a stall and watched her tell fortunes for people.

Yao is too honest. She says whatever she wants when fortune-telling. She often doesn't make any money and gets scolded.

It was not until the third day that Zhang Junyao asked someone to come and invite him.

When Sang Que and Yao Zhen arrived at the grain shop, Zhang Junyao was sitting under a tree in the backyard. On the stone table in front of her was a Buddha statue carved from Tokaishi stone with a piece of red paper pressed down on it.

After Yaozhen checked and confirmed that everything was correct, several people prepared the things for the ritual, drove a donkey cart out of Sanchuan City, and went outside the city to find a suitable place to summon the soul.

There is at least one day captain in charge of Sanchuan City, so it is best not to alarm him.

At night, in the wasteland outside the city, Yaozhen stood quietly in front of the altar, muttering to himself, with red candles flickering and green smoke curling up.

Yaozhen lit three incense sticks, bowed towards the four directions, inserted the incense into the incense burner, picked up the peach wood sword, and waved it in the air. Wherever the sword passed, a faint light flickered.

As the peach wood sword was waved, gusts of cold wind blew, and the smoke from the incense burner swirled above the marriage certificate. Yaozhen put down the peach wood sword and gently shook the brass Taoist bell that Sangque gave her. The crisp bell sound echoed in the silent night.

"The Taoist has issued an order. Where are Wang Shijie and Ning Fang? Show up immediately!"

With a cold shout, the swirling smoke on the marriage certificate suddenly dissipated. Amid the howling wind, two phantoms, a man and a woman, gradually emerged in front of the altar, with a red string tying the two together.

See you tomorrow~
