Journey to the New South

Chapter 11: Strong Wood Mansion Treasure Exploration Plan to Report to High Officials

The words of black and white impermanence were really surprised by the kindness and the old ghost. Cixuan took over the magic pen and said, "Thank you for believing in the poor monk. The poor monk will definitely hand over the magic pen to Feng Qi."

"I still have to take good care of Feng Qi. I really want to see him again!" The old ghost choked.

"Old man, you can go with peace of mind. The poor monk will take good care of Feng Qi in the future. Cixuan said.

"Yes. Let's go to the capital. There are all banquets in the world, not to mention that there is a difference between people and ghosts. You old man, can rest assured to go back with us. Bai Wuchang said.

The old ghost nodded helplessly and urged Ci Xuan, "Prince, go and save Feng Qi. I'm leaving!"

"Farewell, prince!" Black and white impermanence said in unison, and before Cixuan could reply, he disappeared with the old ghost.

Ci Xuan felt very uncomfortable when he saw the old ghost and black and white impermanence left. He really didn't know how Feng Qi would react when he learned that the old ghost was taken away?

"The dead are like this. Old man, I will take good care of Feng Qi. Don't worry. Cixuan was deeply moved by the eager appearance of the old ghost, and he secretly made up his mind.

Rain falls from the sky.

Ci Xuan became anxious as soon as she saw that it was raining. He rushed to the mass grave and took Feng Qi away from the mass grave in the shortest time. When Ci Xuan, who was soaked and breathless, came to the mass grave, Feng Qi was dying. The blood and rain from his head mixed together, what a desolate look.

"How can such a able person fall into such a situation?" Ci Xuan sighed and helped Feng Qi up.

"Master Feng, wake up."

Feng Qi did not respond at all.

Ci Xuan saw that Feng Qi's body was cold and his breath was weak. Then he carried Feng Qi on his back. Walking on the muddy road, brave the downpour to find the inn...

Feng Qi slowly woke up. In a daze, he clearly saw Cixuan's face. He was so surprised that he suddenly woke up.

"How could it be you? Why am I here? What is this place? You still want to arrest my master!" Feng Qi said in horror.

"Ah!! Broken! Is it already dawn? My master..." Feng Qi suddenly thought of the fact that the ink body attached to the old ghost would turn back to ink after five hours, and knew that he had made a big mistake. He hurriedly got out of bed and was ready to go home to draw a new ink body for the master.

"Lord Feng, don't be excited. Listen to the poor monk tell you..." Ci Xuan stopped Feng Qi.

"Do you think you caught my master? You bald donkey, why can't you get along with my master? He can't go back to hell to suffer!"

"The old man has returned to hell with black and white impermanence." Ci Xuan said nervously.

Like a bolt from the blue, Feng Qi was stunned when he heard it. For several years, what he was most afraid of was to hear this sentence. He knew that he did not return all night, causing the master's soul to break away from the ink body and be captured by black and white impermanence

"It's you, you bald donkey who joined hands to capture my master!! Why did you do that? I want to fight with you!" Feng Qi, who was furious, pushed Ci Xuan aside, and then immediately touched the magic pen on his body, trying to use the magic pen to fight with Ci Xuan.

"The magic pen?" Feng Qi was even more panicked, and the magic pen he relied on was not on his body.

"Are you looking for this again?" Cixuan took out the magic pen and asked.

"You bald donkey, don't eat fast and recite Buddhahood. Grab my master and take away my magic pen. What kind of Buddhist monk is? If you are a man, return the magic pen to me and let me fight with you for a few rounds. Let's see if it's your mouth reading fast or my hand drawing fast.

"The magic pen will be given to you. However, we can't fight anymore. Your master told the poor monk that you are a good person. Let the poor monk take care of you and take you to learn well.

"Do not talk nonsense here. How could my master say these words to you? Give me the magic pen, and I'm going to save Master. I can't let him suffer again."

"It's too late. Your master was not caught by a poor monk. The poor monk did not want to take him back to hell. Poor monks and black and white impermanence are by no means a joint action. It was on the road that I saw the black and white impermanence and your master, so your master told me to go to the mass grave to save you, and asked the poor monk to tell you the whereabouts of the fragile bracelet.

Hearing this, Feng Qi cried uncontrollably, "I have harmed the master. Master will suffer a great crime when he returns to hell. Master, Feng Qi, I'm sorry for you!"

"Lord Feng, don't be sad. The old man will not be punished when he returns to hell. Someone in hell will plead with him!"

"What did you say?" Feng Qi turned his face doubtfully and asked, "The hell is full of ghosts. Where is anyone? What are you talking about? You talk nonsense."

The father of the poor monk just passed away this year. He is a good friend of the Lord of Hell. The poor monk has entrusted black and white impermanence to tell his father to plead for your master.

Feng Qi heard it and believed it seven or eight points. Then he asked expectantly, "So what do you say about black and white impermanence?"

"Black and white impermanence agrees. They said that as long as your father pleaded, your master would not be punished.

"You didn't lie to me? Your father is so face-to-face"

"The monks don't talk about false words. Your master also said that he would give you a dream. Tell you everything."

Feng Qi cried loudly when he heard this and said, "Master, hurry up and give me a dream. Feng Qi wants to see you. It's all about what kind of easy-to-dress bracelet..."

At the mention of the easy-lens bracelet, Feng Qi immediately realized the existence of Cixuan. He cautiously stopped crying and asked, "Then why did you plead for my master? Didn't you come to catch him?"

"Lord Feng, you misunderstood. The poor monk did not come to arrest him back to hell. The poor monk came to you for ink and silver. When I met black and white impermanence, I knew that my father was in hell and was a good friend of the Lord Hell.

"So how do you know I'm in a mass grave? How did you get the magic pen? Were you there when I was knocked unconscious? Was it because I was thrown into the mass grave? You got my magic pen, but you can't use it. That's why he saved me and lied to me to teach you how to use the magic pen. Feng Qi said bluntly.

"Master Feng misunderstood. It was black and white impermanence who saw someone throw you there in the mass grave. The two of them took the magic pen from you. Later, I heard from your master that only you would use the magic pen, and he entrusted me to return the magic pen to you.

"So it is. Then give me back the magic pen. This pen is a waste pen in your hand, and it is only a magic pen in my hand.

Ci Xuanma* divine pen was handed over to Feng Qi and said, "A strange man like you is really a gifted power. There is no need to go astray and do something disgraceful. Do you even have to use ink and silver to eat in a restaurant?"

"Don't use ink silver, do you use steal invisibility?"

"What's the difference between using ink and silver and stealing?"

"I was stealing. It was the thief who raised me. Without stealing, there will be no life. If you steal the magic pen, you will rarely steal it and change it to painting. It was last night that I stole the easy-to-dress bracelet again. But I didn't expect it. After listening to the gossip of the pawnshop owner, I became lustful. It hasn't been painted for a night, and as a result, the master..."

Ci Xuan saw that there was regret between Feng Qi's words and hurriedly said, "What's going on that you won't return all night."

Feng Qi sighed, "It's hard to say. It's really embarrassing..."

Feng Qi told the whole story and became more regretful.

"So, the easy-to-dress bracelet is on Master Muda's house. What a strange twist!! You can draw anything with a magic pen. Can't you draw a bracelet? Can't you draw a beautiful woman? Your master can stealth, why did he get caught? Ci Xuan asked,

"The magic pen can't draw anything. The painting doesn't look like it, and it won't become true at all. I have never seen the Yirong bracelet before, so naturally I don't know how to draw it. After stealing from the pawnshop, there is no need to draw. Now I want to draw, but I can't remember. I'm still not good at drawing beautiful women. When I want to draw beautiful women, all the people who come out of the wall are ugly. I drew the most similar painting by the master, but the ink body can only be used for five hours to turn back into ink. Master is old, and he can't draw through the wall without stealth. Feng Qi explained.

Ci Xuan said, "So that's it. It seems that there are no omnipotent objects in the world. I hope you can learn well and stop doing dishonorable things. Otherwise, even if you are highly able, you will encounter today's situation. You have escaped a disaster today, and you should cherish it more in the future."

"Master is no longer here. I'm not interested in myself. Thank you for saving me back and thank you for returning my magic pen. Thank you more for exempting my master from punishment. Whatever you want, just say it. I'll draw it for you. Even if you want real silver, I will give it to you."

"I came to you that day because of your ink and silver that I was fired from the restaurant. In order to compensate for the loss of the restaurant, I had to take off the Yirong bracelet. I asked you to redeem the Yirong bracelet for me. Now I still ask you to help me find the easy-to-dress bracelet. That's the favorite thing of the poor monk.

"If it weren't for the master, I didn't know you had hidden easy-to-dress bracelets. Where did you get your easy-to-dress bracelet?

"So where did your magic pen come from?"

"After Master's death, Tomeng told me. I stole it. The owner of this magic pen is the ancient Ma Liang. After Ma Liang's death, this pen passed down and later fell into the hands of a profiteer in the city. I stole it from a profiteer.

"Sure enough, it's Ma Liang's pen. I just heard it before, but I really saw it today. This Ma Liang pen and the poor monk's easy-to-understand bracelet are really a pair of treasures. The fragile bracelet of the poor monk came even more wonderfully. It was sent by the bird spirit of the valley.

Feng Qi was interested and said, "You are really a good person. My master said that you are proficient in metaphysics, which seems to be true. Not only does the hell give you face, but even bird spirits give you easy-to-face bracelets. Your mouthful of scripture turned what I drew into ink. I, Feng Qi, have met a master."

"Where can a tall man go? Now if you want to get back the easy-shaped bracelet, it seems that you can only rely on you. Cixuan said.

"That's natural. I will go to Mudafu tonight. I don't believe it. I can't find the easy-to-use bracelet.

"I'm afraid it's hard for you to find. Think about it, young grandma Muda must be overjoyed to get the Yirong bracelet. Put it in a very secret place. Can you find it?"

"I entered Muda Mansion invisibility. Staring at Grandma Muda all the time, she will definitely see where the bracelet is.

Ci Xuan nodded and said, "That's the only way. I'm still bothered by Feng.

"You're welcome. My master is in hell, and I have to ask your father to take care of him. How dare I not listen to your orders? Otherwise, my master will give me a dream every day and scold all night. Feng Qi said.

Ci Xuan nodded and said, "The poor monk can see that you are not a ruthless person. The poor monk has trusted you. I can trust your ability."

Feng Qi nodded and had a good impression on Cixuan.

At night, Feng Qi used stealth to penetrate the wall and successfully entered the Muda mansion. But I didn't find Grandma Muda. While worrying, I suddenly saw two maids coming over with food and talking as they walked.

"The master suddenly locked up the young lady today. Why?" The maid asked.

"I heard that someone pretended to be a young master last night and was with the young grandmother..." The maid Yi replied.

Really? How did that man dress up? Will the young grandma not recognize it?" The maid asked.

"It was almost dawn before I recognized it. The man was killed by the master. He was thrown into a mass grave. I heard that the man doesn't look like a young master at all, and I don't know why he lied to the young grandmother's eyes last night? The maid said.

I'm afraid the young lady is pretending to be confused. No wonder the master is so angry. I have to say that her confinement is light. According to the usual practice, if the woman in the house dares to have an affair, she will sink to the bottom of the lake. The maid said.

"But the doorman said that the man looked like a young master. Do you think it's strange?" The maid said.

"Who knows? Oh, the master is here. Don't talk about it." The two maids stopped their mouths when they saw Master Muda coming.

It was Master Muda who came by. I saw him wearing long-sleeved clothes with a strange expression, as if he was very worried.

"Put the food in the mouth of the confinement room and don't talk to the young grandmother." Master Muda told the maid.

"Yes, sir!" The two maids quickly agreed.

Master Muda continued to walk forward with a strange expression. The two maids went to deliver food to Grandma Muda. Feng Qi, who was invisible, naturally followed the maid and came to the confinement room where Grandma Muda was locked.

The two maids put the food in the mouth of the meal and left without saying a word. Feng Qi immediately used the wall penetration technique and entered the confinement room. When Feng Qi took a close look, he was shocked!

It turned out that what was imprisoned was not Grandma Muda at all, but an old woman who looked like a beggar. The old woman smelled the food, got up and took down the food in her mouth and ate it happily.

"It seems that Master Muda has poisoned Grandma Muda. They all blame me for the tragic death of Grandma Muda!!" Feng Qi thought so and regretted it.

"Yes! If Grandma Muda dies, the easy-to-understand bracelet will definitely fall into the hands of Master Muda. Maybe this old dog heard about the Yirong bracelet and wanted to kill Grandma Muda. Feng Qi thought nonsense.

Feng Qi decided to keep an eye on Master Muda to find out whether his conjecture was true. He left the confinement room and found Master Muda's room. Master Muda has undressed and fallen asleep. It seems that he won't do anything tonight.

Feng Qi was afraid that Cixuan would be anxious, so he left the wooden house and returned to the inn. I told Cixuan in detail what I had seen and heard. After hearing this, Ci Xuan said, "Lord Feng's guess is very likely. It seems that now we not only need to find the easy-to-use bracelet, but also to figure out the mystery of the disappearance of Grandma Muda. Whether she was poisoned or not, we should report to the officer.

"However, if the chief of the government accepts the bribe from Master Muda, it is useless for us to report to the official. In addition, if he knows about the Yirong bracelet and is greedy for the Yirong bracelet, it will be more troublesome.

"Don't worry about these. The poor monks have their own tricks. Listen to me, Feng Shi. Ci Xuan said a few tricks, and Feng Qi Mao suddenly opened up. He praises Cixuan for his intelligence.

The next day, Feng Qi went to the government to report the case. The chief of the government asked, "What cases do you have to report?" Come on." Feng Qi replied according to what Ci Xuan told him, "The little family has an ancestral treasure called a bracelet. Wearing this bracelet and chanting a spell can make people invisible. Unfortunately, he was robbed by Master Muda today and given to his young grandmother Muda, so the villain had to report the case to the government.

As soon as the officer heard this, his spirit immediately came and hurriedly asked, "Is there really this bracelet? You can't joke about the land of the government!" Feng Qi hurriedly replied, "The villain dares not deceive the lord. Please send officers and soldiers to search Mr. Muda's mansion and make the decision for the villain. The officer said with a smile, "That's natural." Then he ordered left and right: "Send an official immediately to search the bracelet at Master Muda's mansion."

The officers and soldiers 'followed' and went out to act. The officer said to Feng Qi, "If you really find the bracelet, how much filial should you give me?" Feng Qi said, "If you really find the bracelet, the villain is willing to pay 200 taels of silver to honor the officer." The officer smiled and said nothing.
