I descend into the world of heaven

All the evildoers in Huangfeng Village were wiped out under Chen Chu's thunder. Although the young man who was locked up in a dilapidated house and used as a "medicine introduction" was still alive, his eyes had lost light. It turned out that the young man had multiple wounds on his body. The tendons of his hands and feet were severed and he could not stand up. His body had suffered inhuman torture, and his internal organs were seriously injured.

The young man felt that he had no hope of living and asked Chen Chu to kill him.

The tendons of his hands and feet were broken and the five internal organs were damaged. This might be a big problem for others, but it was not a big problem for Chen Chu. He took out a leaf of the elixir, crushed it into juice, and dripped it on the wounds of the young man's hands and feet, and threw the residue away. After putting it in the mouth, the elixir began to work, and the broken tendons of the hands and feet were automatically reconnected. The five internal organs in the abdominal cavity also received a lot of moisture, and the young man's complexion gradually became rosy...

When the young man saw that Chen Chu had saved him and was able to move a little, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Master Dao!"

Chen Chu saw that the young man was grateful, but there was still a trace of fear in his eyes. He smiled and said: "Chen San, a poor man, comes from a very far away place, and his behavior and customs are different from those here. We pay attention to I cultivate myself with the energy of heaven and earth, and although I also make elixirs, there has never been a precedent of using people as medicine guides. You don’t need to be afraid. I don’t want medicine guides nor your offerings... However, it’s not completely without requirements, but I hope you can After surviving, I can try my best to do more good deeds and pass on the goodwill."

After he finished speaking, he thought that the youth would be full of gratitude. Not only did he act like a cow, but he would at least say thank you.

Unexpectedly, the young man was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, the fear in his eyes became more intense, and he said tremblingly: "The place where Master Dao came from is indeed far enough, and he actually dared to say such bold words to convey goodwill."

Chen Chu was silent for a moment and said, "What's your name? How can you treat conveying kindness like a scourge?"

The young man said: "My name is Xin Ming. I am from Mashan County. I went out with the caravan to gain a lot of experience. Who knew that I was robbed by bandits on the road? I finally survived, but I met this person from Huangfeng Village again. The man who died in the house was my cousin, and it's a pity that he did nothing to end up like this."

Xin Ming looked a little sad and said: "When I heard Master Tao say about conveying goodwill, the reason why I was frightened is because the law does not allow you to do things that are not beneficial to yourself! Anyone who does anything without reciprocation will be classified as "Foolish", and the foolish people belong to the lowest class of people, the ignorant and mentally ill people. If they are caught by the officials, they will end up becoming "Yao Yinzi" and slaves.

Therefore, since childhood, people around me have done things for profit. If you are suddenly asked and there is no profit in what you are doing, you will be arrested and thrown into a cell..."

Chen Chu was a little shocked: "There is such a law, your country is really ridiculous."

Xin Ming said: "Master Tao is ignorant. Not only our court is like this, but other surrounding countries are like this, so please don't talk about doing good deeds in public. It's life-threatening, even if you are Master Tao, you can't do it." .

There is a Gongqiu Mountain near Huangfeng Mountain. There is a Gongqiu Temple on the mountain. There is a Gongqiu Taoist in the temple. From time to time, he will come to Huangfeng Village to look for medicine. People in this village have tried to resist and even called the mountain The tiger came to protect him, but it was a pity that Taoist Gongqiu's methods were a little better than the tiger's, and the tiger was defeated when he came. "

Chen Chu thought for a while and said: "There is such a Taoist temple, and it even uses people to make elixirs. I would like to go there and see it, but I don't know what you will do next. Should you go with me to see it, or leave and go home by yourself? ?”

Huangfeng Village is in a mess.

Xin Ming looked at all this and suddenly smiled and said: "I want to go and see it with Mr. Dao."

Chen Chu felt a slight change in Xin Ming's mood and smiled: "Oh, you seem to have made up your mind."

Xin Ming said: "Ever since I was young, everyone has told me not to do things that are not beneficial. Those who do good things are all fools and will only harm others and themselves. It is better to be a self-interested villain or evil person from the beginning. Isn’t that great? I’m probably born to be rebellious. I just don’t want to do this kind of thing. What’s wrong with doing good deeds?”

He slapped the lumps of mud on his trousers, and his voice gradually became louder: "Taoist Master promotes goodwill, and I, Xin Ming, also want to do good deeds. Why don't I follow you around, keep doing this, and see what kind of things it can bring about?" prospect!"

Although Chen Chu felt that this person was a bit of a mediocre person, he was not bad in nature. He nodded and said, "Okay, then you can come with me."

The two of them and the cat left the devastated Huangfeng Village and walked away...

Gongqiu Mountain is about twenty miles away from Huangfeng Mountain. The peak is larger and the trees are more lush. There is a simple Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, with the words "Gongqiu Temple" written on the plaque. Inside the gate of the Taoist temple, what comes into view is the incense table altar and a gray statue of a god. This statue is wearing a Taoist robe and sitting on a chair on the altar. He has neither a bun nor a Taoist crown, and his hands are not Hold the mudra or pinch formula, but place it directly on the knees on both sides.

The statue is carved from a huge stone. It does not look forward like the usual statues, but looks to both sides, because there are two faces on its head at the same time. The face on the left is smiling and looking to the left, and the face on the right is looking towards the left. The fierce god looked to the right. There is a pattern of Bagua on the robe of the statue, but it is not the common Bagua of Qian, Sanlian, Kun and Liudu. Instead, there are little snakes twisted and squeezed in eight directions. It looks very strange. Bagua seems to be just a fence for keeping little snakes. That’s all…

An eight-year-old Taoist boy was carrying a bucket of brown water and a brush in his hand, carefully brushing the statue.

The Taoist boy is a little boy with a thin body, very obvious cheekbones on his face, and a sallow complexion. He is standing on the bench, holding a bucket in his left hand, and trying his best to lift the brush in his right hand higher, but the statue is too tall and the brush is brushed underneath. , the above part cannot be brushed...

He pushed his feet harder, harder.

Unexpectedly, the body leaned too forward, the bench lost its balance, and the whole person hit the statue hard, and then fell to the ground. The brush flew far away, the barrel broke, and the brown liquid inside flowed all over the floor...

"ah!"

The Taoist boy panicked and ignored the pain on his body. He scooped up water from the ground with both hands and murmured: "I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it..."

At this moment, a shadow enveloped the Taoist boy.

The child froze, and looked up mechanically. He saw a tall and thin old man standing in front of him. The old man's hair was gray, and his whiskers were also gray, but they were not so pure. There were always a few black strands in the white. There were a few white sticks in it, and his face was full of wrinkles, the kind that could kill a fly. He was estimated to be in his seventies, and his cheeks were actually smeared with girls' rouge, making him look a bit nondescript. Looks like a paper man but does not look like a paper man, looks like a zombie but does not look like a zombie, is neither human nor ghost...

"Master, master...I, I didn't mean it."

The Taoist boy's voice couldn't stop trembling, tears squeezed out of his eyes, dripping down his face and falling to the ground, and he was about to kowtow to the ground.
