Chapter 219 Mr. Chunyu
Chapter 219 Mr. Chunyu
When the whole village of Hongni was massacred, it was impossible for such a big thing not to be discovered, and it would naturally be reported to the court for a thorough investigation. However, although this matter was big, it was suppressed because of something bigger. That is, Sejong's favorite concubine, Concubine Seonrou, and the deposed crown prince passed away at the same time, and the whole country was in mourning. At that time, Sejong was probably too shocked and ignored the government for half a month. When the case of Hongni Village was presented to Sejong, Sejong made such an order, suppressing the case and not investigating it, and ordered the people not to mention this matter, and ordered the people of Dai County not to enter the area of Hongni Village, and those who violated the order would be taken to prison.
Now Shen Wen asked Ge Cong to take him to Hongni Village, but Ge Cong was afraid of the court's law and refused to take him there.
Shen Wen said, "Now the dynasty has changed, and so many years have passed. Even if the court knew about this, I'm afraid the current emperor would no longer need to suppress the case. If he doesn't redress the grievances of the people of Hongni Village, the world will not be able to bear it. Also, you are afraid of the court's laws, but I am not. I am a gangster who specifically opposes the court. Even if I went to investigate Hongni Village, what would happen? Ge Cong, I don't think you are a retard. I've said this to this point, you should know what to do."
Ge Cong was very afraid of the word "bandit" that Shen Wen mentioned. Ge Cong smiled and said, "Sir, that's true, but... I'm really afraid that the court will come to arrest me!"
Shen Wen said: "If the court arrests you, how about I send people to the prison to get you out? We are not just some bandits. We are trying to overthrow the court. It's easy to catch a commoner like you."
Ge Cong's eyes widened!
A major event that will overthrow the imperial court!!
Ge Cong was even more timid and frightened. How could he shirk his responsibility? They had killed officials appointed by the imperial court, so killing a commoner like him would be as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.
Ge Cong immediately said, "Master, you are right. I will take you to Hongni Village right now. In fact, Hongni Village is very close to us. There is a shortcut down the mountain. We can get there in less than half an hour."
Shen Wen said: "There is no time to lose, let's go now."
Ge Cong agreed and led the way.
But Ge Cong walked a few steps and said, "Sir, it's not possible. Look at the sky. It will be dark in half an hour. It's late at night. There will be ghosts in that place. You know that the people in that village were killed. They are all evil ghosts with resentment. If a few of us go there, will we still be alive?"
Shen Wen rolled his eyes at him and said, "You're a grown man, but you're so courageous. You still want to hang out with the prominent people and make a name for yourself. You'll never be able to turn things around in your life." He really wanted to slap him on the head.
Shen Wen lowered his head and touched the small cloth bag hanging on his body, which was given to him by Li De. Shen Wen took off the cloth bag, took out the fox fur tail from it, showed it to Ge Cong, and said, "Do you know what a good thing this is? It belongs to the old ancestor beside the current emperor. This old ancestor is a powerful god who came down from heaven. He was named the old ancestor in the palace. The hair that falls from his body can dispel evil spirits and make all the evil ghosts in hell submit. Fortunately, I remembered it. You can rest assured this time. Those evil ghosts in the world can't hurt us."
Ge Cong was half-believing and half-doubting. He asked, "Really? Is there really such an ancestor heavenly official? How come I don't know about it?"
Shen Wen held the fox fur in his hand, but stared at Ge Cong and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the ancestor's magic weapon. It has spiritual energy. If the spirit attached to the magic weapon is offended, you will be punished. Do you know that? The nobleman served by the Ge Nianzi you mentioned, because of offending the ancestor, all the masters of his family were dragged into the palace and beaten with sticks. When you go back and ask Ge Nianzi about this, you will know that what I said is true. You don't have to doubt whether this magic weapon is real or not. Let's go to that village and verify it, and we will know it."
After saying this, he instructed Ge Cong, "I'm telling you! If those evil spirits really cause the ancestor to manifest his divine body, you must not be disrespectful to that nobleman's family. Kneel on the ground and kowtow to him eight or ten times first. Do you hear me?"
Ge Cong was frightened by his serious look and could only nod in agreement.
In this way, everyone followed Ge Cong's leadership and walked for another half an hour, and as expected, they arrived at the territory of Hongni Village.
As the sun sets, the gray sky makes people see the deserted and silent village, and they feel more and more uneasy.
Ge Cong swallowed and said, "Sir, why don't we go back? It will be the same if we come back tomorrow."
Xiao Mao, Cai Tou and the other two had already made preparations for action. The watchman, who had rich experience in reconnaissance, was the first to run ahead to explore the way.
Cai Tou supported Li De, Xiao Mao cautiously protected Shen Wen, and the few of them walked forward a few dozen meters.
Xiao Mao was very perceptive and immediately stopped Shen Wen and said, "Sir, there are people in this village!"
Just one sentence scared Li De and Ge Cong so much that they cried out. Cai Tou slapped them both on the head and said, "Be quiet. Do you want to be discovered right away?"
Ge Cong said: "Could it be that it's not a human, but a ghost?"
Xiao Mao kicked him in the lower body and said, "Bullshit, my judgment is never wrong. I have been in the mountains and forests for so many years and have never encountered a ghost. Don't scare yourself."
At this time, the watchman jumped out like a leopard and said to Shen Wen: "Master, there are five or six people in front. They are digging a pit and seem to be looking for something. Master, you may not think that those people are acquaintances." Then he turned his eyes to Ge Cong.
Shen Wen said: "It's that group of people led by Master Ge Liu."
Ge Cong swallowed his saliva and smiled, "That's great. They are all family. Sir, why don't we go find them?"
Cai Tou gave him another Gebao chestnut and said, "Don't interrupt. Listen to my owner."
Shen Wen asked Shouwang to lead everyone and quietly approach the people of Ge Liuye. They stayed in the dark and observed and eavesdropped for a long time, and then everyone quietly withdrew.
Shouwang asked Shen Wen, "Master, what should we do?"
Shen Wen said: "It's late at night, I'm sleepy, let's find a place to rest."
Everyone was puzzled, but Li De and Ge Cong were very happy. Xiao Mao and the other two were used to following orders, so they followed Shen Wen's arrangement and rested in a forest on the edge of the village.
Only one person was left to keep watch and check on the situation of Ge Liuye and his men.
Looking at the steady breathing of Li De, Ge Cong and others, Shen Wen finally felt at ease and gradually fell asleep.
Not long after, he heard the watchman beside him calling him to get up, and he opened his eyes.
But??
When Shen Wen opened his eyes, he saw not Shouwang, but another handsome man. The man said to him, "Mr. Chunyu, are you okay? It's all because of our incompetence that you spent so much magic power to find that person."
At this moment, Shen Wen actually became Mr. Chunyu. Even Mr. Chunyu's urgent desire to find someone seemed to be transferred to him.
Shen Wen was pulled up by the handsome young man, who took him through the woods and walked along a small path to a century-old locust tree in a village.
The handsome young man said, "Mr. Chunyu, what should we do? Those murderous beasts cut up these villagers like cutting melons and vegetables. Not a single body is intact. Some are burned and some are buried. And the most bodies are buried under this old locust tree. Sir, do you want to cast a spell to find that person's body now?"
Mr. Chunyu said, "There is no time to lose. We have a time limit to use the flesh and blood taken from Concubine Xianrou's body to search for Ziying's bones. After seven days, their spirits will dissipate, and Ziying will not be able to be resurrected."
Mr. Chunyu took out the small jar that he treasured in his arms, put his index finger in it, scooped out a little blood and rubbed it on his hand.
He thought to himself, "Fortunately, before Concubine Xianrou died, she had predicted on which day and in which place Ziying would encounter disaster. Concubine Xianrou was a very kind and benevolent person. She transferred her lifelong spiritual power to me. Her only wish before her death was to use this spiritual power to revive Ziying. I hope that God will have mercy on this mother and son and let poor Ziying still live in this world."
Then Mr. Chunyu released all the spiritual power in his body to activate the bones and blood in his hands. The bones and blood floated into the air and onto the ground along with the dissipated spiritual power, and then disappeared.
After the spiritual power that was flashing red light penetrated into the soil, it turned white and came out after a while.
One, two, three...
Mr. Chunyu and the handsome young man looked at them one by one, and they were all white, and disappeared in an instant.
The more they watched, the more nervous they became, and the more lost they felt.
It would be great if it was red spiritual light, as that would prove that Ziying’s soul is in this piece of soil.
Until the last bit of spiritual energy dissipated, they did not see the specks of red light.
Mr. Chunyu had been using up his spiritual energy for days, and coupled with the blow he received, he was about to fall down. The young man beside him supported him and said, "Mr. Chunyu, you can't fight so hard anymore. It seems that God doesn't intend to revive Ziying. Why don't you just forget it?"
Mr. Chunyu was getting weaker and weaker. He could not hear clearly the handsome young man's concern because of the buzzing in his ears.
Although the young man was very reluctant, he still pulled Mr. Chunyu away from the sea of corpses under the old locust tree.
Their figures gradually disappeared, and the land where the bodies were buried, after a gust of mountain wind blew over, faint white fluffy things grew from all directions, which turned out to be flying fox hair.
Mr. Chunyu, who had slowly recovered, ran back to the old locust tree like crazy and dug the soil with his hands, vowing to dig out all the bodies on the ground. He knew that the person he was looking for must be here.
Just keep digging! Digging!
"Master! Master..."
With each call, Shen Wen, who had been in a trance, gradually regained consciousness.
In the dim morning light, Shen Wen could see clearly that it was Shouwang who was calling him.
Shen Wen gradually regained consciousness and felt great pain in his fingers. He looked at his hands which were still covered in dirt and asked in confusion, "What happened to me?"
Shouwang said, "Master, you scared me to death. Just now, after those people left, I saw you suddenly run to the ground and dig like crazy. Fortunately, you were not discovered by those people. Are you okay?"
