Chapter 262 Eight Kings

Feng Shusheng, Lintao County, after the rich family, but in his generation, his family began to decline. There is a turtle fisherman who owes money to the scholar and can't repay it. In order to pay off the debt, he often replaces fish and turtles. On this day, the fisherman sent another old turtle with white spots on his forehead. The scholar saw that the old turtle looked strange and did not dare to cook, so he took it to the river to release it.

Later, once, the scholar came back from his son-in-law's house and passed the Ganges River. At that time, it was dark. A drunk on the riverside doctor followed by three or two slaves. He looked at the scholar from afar and asked, "Who is it?" The scholar casually said, "I passed by." The drunk said angrily, "I didn't know you were passing by? Report your name."

The scholar was in a hurry and ignored it. The drunken man became more and more angry. He grabbed the scholar's clothes and didn't let him leave. The two were very close. The drunken man's body was full of alcohol, and he was nauseating. The scholar was quite impatient and asked, "Who is your Excellency?" The drunk said, "I'm the former county magistrate. Why are you here?"

The scholar sneered and said, "Is there a county magistrate like you in the world? It's just an alcoholic. Fortunately, you have no power and no position at the time, otherwise, how arrogant you are? The drunk was furious and wanted to fight. The scholar said proudly, "If you don't agree, can you use force? Come on, I'm not afraid of you." The drunken man narrowed a pair of thin eyes and stared at the scholar. Suddenly, he turned angry and happy and apologized, "It turned out to be my benefactor. Please forgive me for the offending." He told his men, "Go back and prepare wine and dishes. I'm going to have a banquet."

As he spoke, he grabbed the scholar's palm and asked him to go to the mansion and walk a few miles to a small village. The platform was gorgeous and seemed to be a big family. The scholar asked the drunkard's name, and the drunkard said, "I'll tell you the truth. Don't be afraid." I am not an extraordinary person. I am the god of Taoshui. Everyone calls me the Eighth King. Shicai Xishan Qingtong invited me to the meeting and drank a few more cups during the dinner. He offended the benefactor in his words and was ashamed.

The scholar knew that he was a monster, but he was not afraid when he saw that the Eighth King was respectful. Suddenly, the banquet was full of tables, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas were extremely luxurious. The eighth king drank a lot. He drank four or five glasses of wine in one breath without changing his face. The scholar was worried that he was drunk again and splashed after drinking. He immediately said, "The amount of alcohol is shallow. I can't drink any more. Is there a bed? I want to sleep."

The eighth king guessed his intention and said with a smile, "Your kindness must be afraid that I will go crazy. There is no need to worry about this. My father-in-law has a life-saving kindness to me. No matter how bad it is, I dare not be presumptuous in front of your old man. The scholar said with a serious face, "Since you know that drinking is a mistake, why don't you quit?"

The Eighth King said, "When I used to be a county magistrate, I was more drunk than today. Therefore, he angered the Jade Emperor and was demoted to the earth. Since then, he has changed his past and wrongs. He has not touched the wine glass for more than ten years, thinking that he can atone for his sins and return to heaven. However, more than ten years later, I was at a loss, and the Jade Emperor still refused to forgive me. I was angry and uncomfortable, which led to the old state of relapse and drunkenness. Since the benefactor has said something, I naturally want to listen. Don't worry, I won't drink again.

While talking, the bell came from afar. The eighth king got up and left the table and said, "It's not long before we get together, and we are about to part." There is a treasure next to me. At present, I will give it to my father-in-law and talk about it. It can be regarded as a reward for your life-saving kindness. Remember that this treasure can't be worn for a long time. If your wish is fulfilled, it still needs to be returned. He opened his mouth and spit out a little man, an inch long.

The eight king stretched out his palms, his nails poked out, cut the muscles of the scholar's arm, and stuffed the little man into the veins. The scholar shouted pain and looked down. The little man and his skin merged into one, forming an egg-sized goosebump. He asked, "What have you done to me?" The eighth king smiled and didn't answer. He sent the scholar out of the door and turned it back by himself.

The scholar looked back and saw that the village was nowhere to be found, leaving only an old turtle, crawling stupidly, sneaking into the river and disappearing. The scholar was stunned for a long time and returned home.

Since then, the scholar's eyesight has greatly increased. Wherever there is jewelry, even if it is hidden in the underground abyss, it can't be hidden from the scholar's eyes and ears. The knowledge has also suddenly increased. What I didn't know before, now I just need to take a look and say the name immediately. Under the mud in the bedroom of the home, there are hundreds of hanging copper coins. The scholar took out the copper coins. From then on, there was no need for food and clothing, and there was no shortage of silver. Later, a businessman turned into a seller's house. The scholar went to watch it. Under the bottom of the house, there were countless gold and silver, so he bought the house at a high price, excavated money, became rich, and had a rich prince, and all kinds of rare treasures in his hand.

The scholar also dug out a treasure mirror from the ground, with a "picture of Shuiyun Xiangfei" painted on the back, which is shining brightly and can illuminate the scenery a few miles away. The treasure mirror also has general beauty. As soon as you aim at the beauty, you can keep the beauty image in the mirror. No matter how you scrape it, the figure will not disappear.

At that time, there was a third princess in the Suwang Mansion. Her face was beautiful. The scholar admired her name for a long time. She heard that the third princess would go to Kengtong Mountain for a visit, so she ambushed the roadside in advance, took a look at the princess's appearance with a treasure mirror, and put it at the head of the bed and watched it day and night. It's really wonderful to see the beauty in the mirror, smiling with a scarf, and talking and moving.

A year later, his wife inadvertently leaked the news. Prince Su knew about this and was furious. He was about to capture the scholar, confiscate the treasure mirror, and prepared to be killed. The scholar secretly bribed the royal cronies and asked them to plead with the prince and said, "If the prince is willing to forgive me, I am willing to offer the world's treasures, pearls and jade. Otherwise, once he dies, the prince will get nothing, and in the end, he will suffer losses.

The prince didn't listen and planned to take the scholar into the army. The third princess said, "My daughter's face has been seen by the scholar. She plays day and night. Even if she kills him, she can't wash away her daughter's shame. It's better to marry him." The prince didn't allow it. The princess was angry and refused to eat. She was locked in the room every day and sulked alone.

The princess was very worried and tried her best to plead for the scholar. Then the prince let go and decided to release the prisoner. He said to the scholar, "If you want to live, you can live, but you must marry my daughter." The scholar shook his head and said, "I have an original match. If my wife doesn't agree, I'd rather die than follow him."

The prince was furious and took the scholar to prison again. The princess secretly summoned her wife to the palace and wanted to poison her with poisoned wine. The wife was ordered to come to the appointment and give the princess a coral mirror platform. Seeing that she was gentle and decent, the princess was very happy, and she had already forgotten the idea of killing. At present, he guided his wife to visit the third princess. The two met, fell in love with each other, and became sisters.

At this point, seeing that his wife had given permission, the scholar no longer insisted and said to his wife, "The princess is noble. After passing through the door, I'm afraid that I will wrong you. Now it's not too late to repent." My wife didn't listen. After going back, she prepared a bride price and gave a lot of jewelry and jade, which were rare and rare. Although the prince was well-informed, he still couldn't distinguish them one by one.

The scholar is proud to marry the princess. I went to bed this night. In my sleep, I saw the Eighth King coming and said, "It's time to return the things to the original owner. Wearing it for too long will consume people's blood and damage people's life expectancy. The scholar promised to keep the eight kings for dinner. The Eighth King refused and said, "Since the last time I listened to the teachings of the benefactor, I have not touched the wine glass in the past three years. The kindness of the benefactor can only be understood by the heart." While talking, he opened his lips, bit the scholar's arm, took out the villain, and left.

The arm was injured, and the scholar couldn't eat it. He was shocked and woke up. When he stared, the goose bumps had disappeared. Since then, the scholar has lost his magical power and is no different from ordinary people.
