Merchant of the Underworld

Mr. Wu said this in one breath, stopped and looked at me steadily.

This hidden past really shocked me!

I didn't expect that he and Wu Qianwu had such a deep connection, and they had already suffered from the ghost bean technique, so when I thought that someone had guessed their family tree, I immediately knew that Wu Qianwu was back, so I did it in advance. Already arranged.

Moreover, he was also a man of great kindness in his tenth life, but he lost some of his moral character because he mistakenly joined the tomb robbing business.

What surprised me even more was the old Taoist priest he mentioned who wanted to eat peaches!

Jiang Dayu also told me at the beginning that when he and Jiang Xiaoyu were wandering around the world in their early years, they also met an old Taoist priest who also left a few words of wisdom, and they were all related to me.

"The master is the one who encounters Lin!", "The calamity of Lin will disappear on its own!".

Who is this old Taoist priest?

It actually predicted my existence decades ago before I was even born! Not only could he accurately deduce the fate of Jiang Dayu, Wu Laobao, but he would definitely meet me at the last moment and be saved by me.

Is there any difference between this and a living immortal?

Wu Laobei was silent for a moment and continued: "I thought he had been crushed to death when the ancient tomb collapsed. Unexpectedly, he not only survived, but also practiced evil arts. A few days ago, he used his muteness to When Ni'er was buying groceries, a ghost bean was placed on her body."

"I've been hit by this kind of evil spell before. Because of my yellow peach eyeballs, it didn't happen for the time being. Now it's been triggered again. But... you also know that I entered the industry relatively late, and I'm not very good at the art of yin and yang. He is good at it, and belongs to the Mud Bodhisattva. He cannot save himself when crossing the river, and he can only watch the mute Nier helplessly... Alas!"

Mr. Wu let out a long sigh, shook his head slightly and said: "After I was infected with evil spells, he used paper cranes to pass messages to me, saying that as long as I join the Lingbao Society, I will serve as a deacon in Xi'an. , he will remove the ghost bean technique and protect me from death."

"I don't know where the Lingbao Society came from, who organized it, and for what purpose. But I know his character very well! And they used this method to force me to join the society. , without even thinking about it, it must be an evil organization."

"Mr. Wu, I have wiped out the Xi'an venue and killed Wu Qianwu." I sneered.

Wu Laobao nodded: "I guessed it when I woke up. It seems that the old man was right, the disaster will disappear on its own, and this disaster is finally over! It's just a dumb girl... Oh, poor kid Even now I don’t know that she is his biological mother.”

"You said the mute lady is Xiao Wu's biological mother?" I asked in surprise.

"Yes!" Mr. Wu nodded and said: "Back then, I found two people who had been frozen on the roadside. After some treatment, they finally woke up because they were both deaf-mute and had no hearing loss. It took me a lot of effort to understand that they had lost their child. When they went out to look for it, they were hungry and cold, and almost died. I went around asking for help, and a year later I finally caught the trafficker and took the child into his arms. When he comes back, he will be Xiaopeng."

"I originally planned to give them a sum of money and let them go back to their hometown to start a small business or something. But they refused to leave. They both knelt down and said they wanted to stay by my side to repay the kindness."

"The two of them are indeed relatively pitiful. They were born deaf and mute, and they are such down-to-earth people. If they went back to their hometown with some money, they might be blackmailed and bullied, so I agreed. They asked the child to call me grandpa, but I don’t want to be his parent because I’m afraid that my child will feel inferior when he grows up knowing that his parents are both deaf-mute.”

"The mute girl was poisoned by poisonous beans. She was in so much pain that she could not survive. At that time, my whole body was swollen and I couldn't even move. My mind was blurred and I couldn't save her at all. The mute girl couldn't bear to see her suffer, and she was afraid of this. The insidious poison was transmitted to Xiaopeng, so he killed her with his own hands. Naturally, all this was hidden from Xiaopeng. If he knew...ah! How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are." Mr. Wu sighed again when he said this!

It turns out that Xiao Wu is not the biological grandson of Mr. Wu, but the mute uncle and his wife.

"Then what Xiao Wu said, that their parents had a car accident, was also made up by you?" I asked.

"It's true. Twenty-five years ago, my biological son Wu Bingxiong and his wife died tragically in a car accident. My daughter-in-law was eight months pregnant at the time! What the old man said is absolutely right. I accidentally got involved in tomb robbing. A line of work has damaged one's moral character. My ancestors worked hard all their lives, and all the blessings they had accumulated for nine lifetimes were ruined by me! Bingxiong was just three months old when his wife contracted an incurable disease. He died in just seven days. After my death, I managed to raise Bingxiong, and in accordance with his childhood wish, he went to the army and became a soldier. I saw him marrying a wife and having children, but in the end he ended up like this."

"Losing my mother when I was young, losing my wife in middle age, and losing my son in old age! These are the three greatest regrets in life, and I have caught up with them all. Alas! When I think of these, I feel a little ashamed of my ancestors."

Mr. Wu's body has recovered well, and he looks much stronger than before. At least he didn't cough at all after talking for so long, and his words were very clear. But when I think back to these heart-wrenching past events, I can't help but feel sad.

"Mr. Wu, don't be sad." I patted his hand and persuaded him: "The past is in the past. Didn't you say: the disaster will disappear on its own. Now that I'm here, all the suffering should be over." It’s over, from now on you can take good care of yourself when you are old!”

"Uncle Dumb is grateful, and Xiao Wu is filial. Haven't you always treated them as your own sons and grandsons? And you have been doing good deeds and advocating for evil for many years, and you have suffered more than forty years of suffering. You owe me It’s time to repay all the negative virtues, and the merits of the tenth life will not end here.”

"Hey, please give me some good advice." Mr. Wu's mood eased slightly and he wiped the reddish circles under his eyes.

"Mr. Wu, that's it for now. You can take good care of yourself. I have some things to deal with, so I'm leaving now. I'll come see you another day when I'm free." I stood up and said goodbye.

"Oh!" Mr. Wu was stunned for a moment, with obvious reluctance in his eyes. However, he was also a kind-hearted person and did not have so many mundane politenesses. Moreover, he also knew that I was busy with something, so he said directly: "Let the mute baby give you."

"No need." I waved my hand and said: "He is sad and tired these days. Let him have a good rest. I can just take a taxi. By the way, Mr. Wu, that... your coffin bed upstairs …”

"It's turning gray, isn't it?"

Before I could say anything, Mr. Wu spoke first.

"Yes, how did you know?"

"I have dreamed about it!" Mr. Wu said seriously: "I dreamed that a unicorn bathed in fire slept inside, and when I woke up, the coffin turned into dust. It seems that the coffin is waiting for me. I’m looking at you! Xiaolin, I’m not very good at the art of yin and yang or even hexagrams, but I have a hunch! In the future, you will be famous in China, unparalleled in ancient times and today, and become the first person in ancient and modern times.”

"Mr. Wu, that's such a reward." I chuckled and said, "You should cultivate yourself well, I'll leave first!"

After saying that, I helped him tuck the quilt in, turned around and walked out the door.
