Gong Zhugeru felt complicated at the moment, and he was somewhat grateful to Hong Qingshan, but the appearance of Hong Qingshan put pressure on him. He approached Hong Qingshan and simply released the "pressure" in his heart tactfully, Qingshan, you saved my daughter, I should thank you properly, and I will give you enough silver when the time comes.
Hong Qingshan didn't understand what he meant, so he wiped the water on his face and said with a smile, "Godfather, what are you talking about?" It was my duty to rescue Juzi from the pond. I am your son-in-law, so why would I ask you to give me enough silver? Besides, I'm here to recognize my bride, and the betrothal gift hasn't been paid yet.
Gong Zuoyuan said clearly, "Hong Qingshan, I'm sorry, our Gong family is going to break off the engagement." Hearing this, Hong Qingshan pushed Gong Juzi who was throwing himself in his arms, but he couldn't push him away. Gong Juzi hugged him tightly. He then asked, Godfather, what do you mean?
Gong Zhuangjuan said, the meaning is very clear. The Yin magistrate in the Shapo County Yamen has taken a fancy to my daughter and plans to marry her in a red sedan chair on a certain day. So from today on, don’t call me godfather anymore, and I won’t either. I recognize you as my son-in-law.
Suddenly, Gong Juzi turned around from Hong Qingshan's arms, faced Gong Zhuangguan and said, Dad, are you going to force your daughter to death? The daughter disagreed. The daughter did not want to marry Yin Zhixian, but only wanted to marry Hong Lang.
Gong Zhuangjuan scolded, Juzi, what do you know? Yin Zhixian is the parent official of Shapo County, and Hong Qingshan is a grassroots man in Hongjiazhuang.
Hearing what her father said, Gong Juzi immediately broke away from Hong Qingshan and tried to dive again, but Hong Qingshan grabbed her. She cried and said, "Let me die!"
At this time, some of the villagers who were watching tried to persuade Gong Zhugeru not to force his daughter. Gong Zhuangguo stopped talking, lowered his head and returned, but his steps were very slow. When he reached the door of the house, he was still troubled by one thing: the magistrate of Yin came to choose a day to get married in a big sedan chair, but ten thousand daughters were unwilling. If you want to marry Hong Qingshan, who can solve this problem?
One evening two months later, there was no sun, and the Moon River was cold and cold. The two water ghosts Jian Ming and Qi Wu were chatting lively about a topic about Yin Zhi County. Seeing that Ming Ming knew more about the situation, he sighed and said that Magistrate Yin once said that there was no hope of building a bridge on the Moon River to facilitate pedestrians crossing the river. It seems that there is no hope of the merits of the two of us building the bridge. It's really too much. Disappointing.
Qiwu asked, how to say this? Jian Ming said, you don’t know! Magistrate Yin died at the foot of the stairs of the main building in the courtyard of his yamen building. It was said that his body was highly decomposed, stinking of maggots and dripping with corpse water. The eight stewards who carried him out all wore masks and gloves.
Qiwu was very surprised and said that you were talking nonsense. I couldn't understand. How did Magistrate Yin die? Jian Ming smiled calmly and explained the reason: that time when Yin County Magistrate came to Gong Zhuang's house as his prospective son-in-law, his wife Qi Xin saw that her daughter did not agree with the marriage, so she put Ecstasy in the shredded pork noodles served to her daughter. Let her sleep in the boudoir, and it will be difficult to wake up for three hours.
The Gong family took advantage of this free time and arranged for Yin Zhixian to come to Gong Juzi's boudoir after purifying himself, thus taking advantage. In fact, how does Yinzhi County know? His enemy in life and the ghost after death - Lu Hu has been following him. It was discovered that he was sleeping with the young daughter Gong Juzi, and it turned into a virus and parasitized on his left leg. When Yin Manyuan came downstairs from the boudoir, he felt a dull pain under the knee of his left leg. He didn't know the reason. He remembered that when he was making clouds and rain for the naked Gong Juzi, he never fell or sprained. He just couldn't understand why his left leg hurt after doing that thing with her?
When Yin Manyuan left Gong Zhuang's house, Shi Daban, who had accompanied him, helped him mount his horse. When he arrived at the Shapo County Yamen Gate, he helped him off his horse again. In order to please the magistrate Yin, Shi Daban invited three or four doctors in the county for consultation within a few days. Some gave him massages, some applied plasters to him; some prescribed medicine to him, and some helped him to walk more. , but to no avail.
What's even more tragic is that not only was Yin Zhixian's left leg not healed, it also became thinner and shortened, so that he walked with a limp. The magistrate of Yin was so angry that he cursed those doctors as quacks and cowards. Because they were all afraid of being punished, several doctors "ran away" and did not dare to meet each other. Shi Daban lost face and felt that his good intentions turned out to be bad, so he stopped getting involved in Yin Zhixian's affairs.
However, all the officials in the yamen thought about him and went to other counties to invite doctors, but they could not come. It turns out that local doctors are all connected with those from other places. Doctors from other places are also afraid that they will be punished if they cannot cure Yin Zhixian's disease, so they all stay away or politely decline. There are also rumors outside that Zhixian Yin's left leg was shortened and he walked like a lame because he was sexually insane. Zhixian Yin was too perverted and this was retribution.
One day, the superior magistrate went to Shapo County to investigate the case and found out that Magistrate Yin was suffering from this leg disease, so he transferred another county magistrate to take charge of the Yamen, and asked Yin Manyu, who was temporarily exempted from the post of magistrate, to take leave to recuperate. If he recovers, he will take up a new position. Otherwise, retired officials from Quan Dang Yamen will be paid monthly salary. But Yin Manyuan was unhappy. After he lost his aura as a county magistrate, no one flattered him or bribed him with money. Even his wife Tian Jingui left him with their son Yin Tianqing and lived in the house that Yin Manyuan had bought for Ma Lingxiang on West Street. In the gate building, I have no contact with him. Tian Jingui, mother and son, annoyed him. After he suffered from leg disease, his temper became more and more irritable, and he often yelled and scolded them. The mother and son avoided it because they couldn't bear it. Yin Manyuan played with too many women and owed lives to others. When his blessings ran out, bad luck came.
That night, he was sleeping in bed, tossing and turning and thinking about Gong Juzi, the daughter of Gong Zhuang's family. Then he fell asleep in a daze and found a wet baby walking towards him. He asked, who are you? The baby's eyes widened with anger and he said, "I am your child." Yin Manyuan said, I don’t have a child like you.
Yingbao continued, "Don't you remember, one evening half a year ago, you saw my mother, Ma Lingxiang, with a lump on her eyelid, making her look ugly, so you coaxed her to go to the Moon River, pushed her into the river and drowned her alive." Do you know that my mother is carrying me, your flesh and blood, in her belly, but you are so evil-minded that you kill my mother. After my mother drowns, I, who is pregnant in her belly, will not survive.
After my mother and I died, my mother wanted to take revenge on you, but she was also at fault. Her soul was imprisoned in the City of Wasted Death and could not come out, so she could not take revenge on you. Mom asked Yin Chai to tell me that she wanted me to take revenge on you. I was preparing to reincarnate in another family, but I was stopped by a messenger. I told my mother what I wanted to do, and with the permission of Hades, I came here to take revenge on you.
Yin Manyuan knelt down and begged for mercy, child, please spare me! Your father is in trouble now. One of his legs has been shortened by half, and he walks with a limp. Now the black gauze hat has also been taken off, and he has become a pitiful commoner, even worse than a commoner. Commoners are still healthy, but I am like this, so you have to pity me! Don't retaliate against me. The baby said, "If you beg me now, it's too late even if you repent." As soon as he finished speaking, the baby sprinkled a handful of powder in his hand towards Yin Manyuan's eyes. Suddenly, he felt a burning pain, as if his eyes were filled with lime, and he couldn't open his eyes in pain. When Yin Manyuan woke up, he could not see anything in his eyes, and there was blood in his eyes. Of course, he could no longer see clearly.
Qiwu suddenly asked, what did that infant spirit put into Yin Manyuan's eyes? Jian Ming said that if the infant spirit sprinkled "extinguishing light" into his eyes, could his eyes not be blind? Yin Manyuan was blind, so he crawled out of bed, walked out of the bedroom, and prepared to go downstairs to find a doctor to treat his eye disease.
But when he reached the stairs, the crippled Yin Manyuan couldn't put his foot firmly on the ground. He fell from a few meters high to the downstairs, bleeding from all his orifices... Because no one knew, the best time to rescue him was lost. He bled too much and died. He then died of shock, and no one knew about him for half a month after his death. An officer in the yamen passed by his house and smelled a foul smell, which aroused his alarm. He broke into the house and found that Yin Manyuan, who had been a magistrate in the past, had turned into a rotting corpse. One of his eyes had been gouged out by a mouse. The eyeball was pierced and turned into a hole.
Qiwu asked again, how do you know so clearly about Yin Manyuan? Jian Ming said that the last time I visited the lower reaches of the Moon River, the river god told me about it. He also asked, why was one of Yin Manyuan's eyes gouged out by a mouse? The river god explained this. A few years ago, when Yin Manyuan was about to take up his new post as magistrate, he went to the Moon River to play. He promised two water ghosts, actually to you and me, that a bridge would be built on the Moon River to facilitate travel in the future. Pedestrians crossing the river. But after he became the county magistrate, he indulged in drinking and sex all day long and forgot everything he said. It can be said that he broke his promise. There is a folk saying that if a person breaks his promise to something important, rats will dig out his eyes after death. Now it seems that it is really broken.
Qiwu said, he deserves it! The magistrate of Yin County died unjustly. When I saw the light, it was getting late, and I said it was so dark now, like the weather in the underworld. When Yin Manyuan arrives in the underworld, he may be reincarnated as an animal in the future.
