"There are scales in the sky and the earth, and all the good and evil in life are recorded in the account. If you want to wash away your sins, you must rely on good deeds." Song You reached out and touched the calico cat next to him and said, "But since the priest did not punish, he just In the dream, I explain the pros and cons to you, and advise you to do good, then just do good."
"Sir, please show me the way."
"First of all, this little lady of the Cao family can no longer survive here. You all know it, so you should not give any discounts to your promise."
"This is natural!"
"I don't have bad intentions anymore!"
"We already know that we were wrong, and we must not make more mistakes! Sir, please rest assured, and please also Madam Cao, please rest assured that what we promised will definitely be no less!"
"This is the best." Song You nodded, paused for a moment before continuing, "As the Buddhist saying goes, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Along the way, many people nearby are in poverty. Even the people in Dingjia Village have had one meal but no next meal..."
When Song You came here, he stopped.
"Today there are more people than land. The weather last year was average and the harvest was not good. Not just here, but many places don't have enough to eat." A middle-aged man stood up and said, "It's really not because we are harsh."
"I don't mean to blame you." Song You said, "It's just that as the saying goes, if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are prosperous, you will benefit the world. If you are rich, if you are rich and benevolent, it will undoubtedly be a blessing to the local people."
"I see."
The middle-aged man seemed to have just reacted and immediately handed over his hand: "Thank you sir for your advice."
A group of people below also agreed.
"Doing good is the way, how to do good is the art, but the real way to do good is not limited to any method and has no end."
"We will know..."
"You just need to make arrangements and do good deeds. I just hope that you can be calm in life and not be tortured by the ghost town's criminal law after death." Song You waved his hand, paused, and looked at the old man of the Ding family, "I was supposed to be here today. I just left, but I barely slept last night, so I decided to stay at my father-in-law’s old house for a day’s rest and leave tomorrow, is it convenient?”
"There is a vacant room at home!"
"No need, I'll stay over there."
Song You then stood up, then turned around and said to the woman beside him: "It's a coincidence that I came from Changjing on this trip. There is a Willow Street in the west city of Changjing. I used to live there. Now There is another friend who also lives in that place. It is fate that I meet Shishi. When Shishi settles down in Changjing, please be sure to go and look for him. Just go to Willow Street and ask around and you will know where I originally lived. I will wait for you. I’ll take a trip to the north and return to the capital. If we still have a chance, I might even go find the young lady.”
"must……"
The young lady of the Cao family said.
Only then did Song You step out.
The calico cat also quickly jumped off the table and followed.
One person and one cat left, but the swordsman still stood beside him with his sword, staring at everyone.
Only then did the smart people realize that this gentleman didn't want to rest here. He was clearly looking for a reason to stay here for one more day, so that he could watch them arrange everything and give the woman peace of mind.
If you want to go to Changjing, you must have a road guide.
Legal identification is required.
If the Ding family dares to do such a thing here, they naturally have a lot of influence in the city, and they may even be officials in the city. Everything can be done quickly. By the afternoon, the road guide and identity certificate had been prepared for the young lady of the Cao family, and the eldest son of the Ding family personally accompanied her with the caravan to Changjing.
The young lady of the Cao family, accompanied by Shu Yifan, came to the old house in the west of the village to find Song You to express her gratitude.
"Sir, this little girl has nothing to repay for your kindness..."
"It's just a fateful encounter. I don't ask for anything in return." Song You sat cross-legged on the bed and said to her, "The culprit in this matter is a Taoist. There must be something special about his steps. He took a fancy to him, so he planned to do harm. Then A famous Taoist has done many evil things, so I will naturally go to him and ask for justice after I leave. Please be more careful on the road after you leave from now on, and don't reveal your birth date at will in the future."
"Little girl, remember..."
The little lady started crying when she said this.
"As for the Ding family, they are both the victims and the perpetrators of that Taoist. But the local government is afraid that they will not be able to try them, and the matter is really complicated. I am not a government official, so all I can do is tell a few lies. , lest they put it down easily, and also urge them to better adhere to the way of doing good in the future, to be rich and benevolent, and to benefit the local people."
"..."
The young lady was stunned for a moment and looked up at him.
The eyes were still red, swollen and moist, but dull.
Only then did she realize that the thunder and the dream were all the work of the gentleman in front of her. She immediately knelt down and said:
"Sir is a god..."
"If I were really a god, this kind of thing wouldn't happen." Song You shook his head helplessly and helped her forward, "Please get up quickly."
"When the immortal comes to Changjing, the little girl will repay you."
"..."
Song You didn't want to say more to her and just shook his head: "Let's go, let's go. I don't think those people would dare to do anything to me anymore. It's just that there are still a few days to go to Changjing, so I have to be careful. Here we are. I have no relatives since Changjing, so please be more careful and speak appropriately to the people of the Ding family if you have any use for them. I just wish you all the best for the rest of your life, forget the past, and live your life well in Changjing."
The little lady just nodded.
Then the swordsman beside her reminded her that it was time to leave, so she turned around and followed him out.
There was only one person and one cat left in the house for a while.
Song You turned his head and looked at the calico cat next to him, who still looked confused, as if he couldn't understand or understand. He reached out and scratched her forehead, and then sighed.
"well……"
At this time, the underworld has not yet been established. Where can the underworld come from?
God's will is the most difficult to predict. Who knows whether it was an arrangement or a pure coincidence that he ended up here?
However, in this era, people have firmly believed in the underworld, God's will, and gods. Sometimes it is really useful to tell a lie. It may even be more useful than the official and royal laws.
…
The next afternoon.
The old man of the Ding family came to see Song You.
Song You did not close the door, but talked to him calmly, telling him that the matter was the plan of the Taoist. It was the Taoist who killed Ding's parents, grandchildren and several others. He had the idea to kill Cao Cao. It was also the Taoist man who married his eldest grandson alive and was buried alive. After hearing this, the old man of the Ding family felt extremely regretful. Song You advised him to keep his eyes open in the future, teach future generations, and use the remaining time to do good deeds.
It wasn't until Shu Yifan, who had gone to see off the young lady of the Cao family, came back that Song You thanked everyone in the Ding family and said goodbye.
The Ding family gave him money as a gift, but he didn't accept it.
Slowly we reached the entrance of the village.
"gentlemen."
Shu Yifan stuck his sword on his horse and asked him, "Where are we going to find that Taoist?"
"Just keep moving forward."
"yes."
Two people and one cat slowly walked onto the road.
Looking back, the village is still peaceful. Looking ahead, the road is not much different from the one behind us.
"..."
It is the way of the world to eat people.
The group continued forward and passed through Huaichang County, but instead of going to Hezhou, they changed direction.
Another day passed like this.
Along the way, it was still the same as before, looking at the mountains, rivers, local customs and customs, as if I had never experienced what happened in Dingjia Village, and I and others were not looking for the Taoist who did harm to others.
Gradually we are one or two hundred miles away from Dingjia Village.
"..."
Song You stopped.
The swordsman in gray led the black horse and followed behind him. When he looked up, he saw a hill in front of him. There was a Taoist temple on the top of the hill. There was heavy dusk and smoke from the Taoist temple was rising into the sky.
"This is it."
Song You took steps again.
Unexpectedly, it was already dusk and there would be people going up the mountain with them.
He was a man in his thirties, leading a donkey. There was no indication of poverty or wealth from his clothes, but his waist was heavy, as if he had a lot of money in his pocket, and his steps were hurried.
When the two parties meet, the man will inevitably be wary.
However, when he saw Song You wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a calico cat, he hesitated for a moment and felt a little relieved, but he had no intention of saying hello to them.
However, Song You smiled and greeted him first:
"A polite step."
The man then turned to look at him, but refused to look back, so he said:
"Be polite..."
"My surname is Song Mingyou. I come from a mountain in Lingquan County, Yizhou. I came here on a wandering trip." Song You introduced himself first, and then asked with a smile, "We are destined to meet each other, but I don't know where are we going?"
"Where else can we go? To the Taoist Temple in the mountains, of course."
"When I first came here, I saw the Taoist temple on the mountain at the foot of the mountain. Then I came to look for it, but I don't know what the name of this Taoist temple is?"
"It's called Lei Qingguan."
"Lei Qingguan..."
Song You muttered a few sentences and looked up.
