Following Li Yanchu's soft drink.
The bodies of several young men in rich and colorful clothes suddenly trembled.
Then the expression on his face became frozen for a moment, and then returned to normal.
"Eh?! Why am I here?"
"Strange, aren't I studying at home?"
"What's going on? Why can't I remember it at all?"
Several people seemed to have no idea why they appeared in Wangjiang Pavilion.
Their words also attracted the surrounding people.
Watch the fun.
There is never a shortage of people.
Li Yanchu and the others took advantage of the situation and left.
Wait until you have gone some distance.
Bai Hongtu said in surprise: "Is that young woman in Wangjiang Pavilion just now a ghost?!"
He is also a disciple of Taoism.
I didn't notice it at all just now.
Li Yanchu shook his head slightly: "I can't tell for sure, but those rich young men just now were obviously under the spell of ecstasy."
Ecstasy is what practitioners call it. There are many women in the world who make love and abduct children. In fact, it is also a type of ecstasy.
It's just that what each school practices is different.
Bai Hongtu tilted his head slightly.
He is now completely hurt by the unknown woman.
The woman who fell into the water following him was startled by the conversation between the two.
She took a closer look.
Only then did he recognize it.
"Taoist Priest Yanchu, it turns out to be you!"
The woman said happily.
"Do you know me?" Li Yanchu asked.
"Yes, there was still a piece of blood money in the slave family's home. Thanks to Taoist Master Yanchu, his life was saved."
The woman said gratefully.
Li Yanchu suddenly realized.
In order to eliminate the danger of wronged blood money, he and Lao Bai organized a large-scale money recognition activity through the Yamen.
This woman must have remembered her appearance from the beginning.
"Why did you fall into the water just now?"
Li Yanchu asked.
A sad look appeared on the woman's face, but she hesitated to speak.
"If you have any difficulties, please tell us and maybe we can help you."
Li Yanchu said.
"Yes, you were forced into prostitution, or your home was haunted and possessed by evil spirits, but it doesn't matter, you finally met someone who understands today."
Bai Hongtu said proudly.
It seemed that they were infected with this calm and confident temperament.
The woman pondered slightly.
Then he talked about his own affairs.
After listening.
Li Yanchu and Bai Hongtu looked at each other, looking a little stunned.
That's it?
Bai Hongtu hesitated to speak, and finally chose silence.
It turns out that this woman's name is Zheng Zhi, and she lives in Beimen Street. Her husband is Sun Ping, a scholar.
Sun Ping's family was in decline, and he had only passed the provincial examination and could not make further progress in his studies.
Somewhat depressed.
After marrying Zheng Zhi, Sun Ping was originally very gentle and elegant.
But as time goes by, his true nature begins to show. He likes to gamble!
Zheng Zhi originally had some dowry, but now it was all lost to Sun Ping.
Even so, Zheng Zhi still did not make a fuss. Instead, she tried her best to comfort her husband not to get into this habit.
Sun Ping was moved by Zheng Zhi's considerateness and really restrained himself for a while, working in a medicine shop.
But a few days ago, Sun Ping couldn't help but went to the gambling house again. Suddenly, something happened and he won more than ten taels of silver.
A scholar who is crazy about poverty, a gambler who has always had bad luck, suddenly has a sudden turn of events and starts killing everyone!
Can the result be settled as soon as it is good?
Sun Ping was completely obsessed with gambling, and ended up winning another ten taels of silver in one go.
When Li Yan first heard this, he thought Sun Ping had encountered some evil spirit and made a deal with him.
It often happens that this kind of gambler and idle guy who is down on his luck suddenly gets lucky.
In fact, most of the time they are possessed by evil spirits. Those dirty things don't like money. They like the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys of living people, which are fresh and delicious.
There are also perverts.
Like other people's wives.
When he makes a deal with you, you need to pay a price.
People's greed is endless, and such people often die unexpectedly, with their families and families destroyed!
Zheng Zhi's husband Sun Ping did not encounter any sinister ghosts.
But he was tricked!
After he won money one after another, he began to lose money, and he lost again and again.
Sun Ping quickly lost all the twenty taels of silver he had won.
This made Sun Ping completely crazy.
In the end, he not only lost all his old house, but also his virtuous and gentle wife.
Lost to the boss of the gambling house.
Master Feng!
Sun Ping prayed to Mr. Feng to let him go and let his wife go.
But Mr. Feng didn't pay attention, and instead asked people to drive Sun Ping back.
It was common for these gangsters to break people's hands and feet. Fortunately, Mr. Feng asked Sun Ping to go home and tell Zheng Zhi.
So he didn't let his men beat him.
Otherwise, it would be wishful thinking if Sun Ping wanted to go back completely.
After Zheng Zhi knew this, she felt helpless and heartbroken.
I couldn't think about it for a while.
So I threw myself into the river, intending to be done with it.
The river was so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A clean death.
Unexpectedly, she met Li Yanchu, a young Taoist priest, who rescued her directly from the river.
Bai Hongtu thought it was a matter of gods and ghosts, but he didn't expect that it was just a matter of ruffians.
But after all, he is a passionate young man, somewhat filled with righteous indignation.
Li Yanchu was relatively calm.
"Zheng Zhi, let me ask you."
"Do you still want to live with your husband?"
Li Yanchu said softly.
Bai Hongtu said angrily: "Why live with such a man who can even sell his wife!"
Li Yanchu stretched out his hand to stop Bai Hongtu, signaling him not to get excited.
Instead he continued:
"Gambling is a problem that is difficult to get rid of because the money comes in too quickly, making it easy for people to become addicted and unable to withstand ordinary life."
"But if you want to continue living with him, I will help your family pay off their gambling debts and take the matter to that Feng San."
"If you don't want to live with him, I will give you a sum of money to help you break up with him. You don't have to worry about Feng San."
Li Yanchu didn't take that Feng San seriously at all.
What kind of gambling shop owner, what kind of Mr. Feng!
Never heard of it!
The toughest person in Weicheng's black and white circles is the county government king who arrests the head!
The biggest gang is the Wuhu Gang!
Li Yanchu also knew a few of the other big gangs, and their leaders had all sent greetings to Li Yanchu.
I visited Qingyun Temple.
But knowing that he was not on the same level as this Taoist master, he left in a hurry.
Several wealthy businessmen in the city also regarded Li Yanchu as their guest, and the lives of several young ladies had been saved by Li Yanchu.
What kind of thing is a gambling house owner?
It's too hard to hit him!
Zheng Zhi was slightly stunned and pondered for a moment.
Undecided.
Bai Hongtu screamed in his heart, it's over.
Looking at her like this, she definitely can't let go of her husband and plans to go back and live with him.
In this ancient feudal background, women pay attention to obeying their husbands when they get married.
Although the etiquette and laws of the Qian Kingdom were not as strict as those in the dynasties after the influence of Zhu Neo-Confucianism.
But a woman like Zheng Zhi is as weak as water, gentle and virtuous.
It’s easy to just accept the situation.
