If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 152 The Talking Dog
Xiaoyu left Xianyun Temple quietly, just like he did when he came, by climbing over the wall and jumping out the window.

She had already ordered a pot of fragrant meat from the dog meat restaurant. Even though the dog meat Taoist priest insisted that she go outside the city to catch a dog, she still paid the waiter two cents of silver and asked him to deliver the pot to Xianyun Temple.

After a series of events including the lawsuit in the government office, the Wang family's worship, and seeking advice at Xianyun Temple, lunch time had long passed.

Xiaoyu took out two copper coins from her small purse, bought two scallion pancakes on the street, ate them while walking, and after finishing they returned to Hongxiufang.

"Aunt Liu, I have encountered something."

If I want to run out of the city, I must explain the reason clearly to Aunt Liu.

"Because my reputation of being 'righteous' spreads throughout the three realms, the Jade Emperor sent an envoy to the human world to monitor my words and deeds, preparing to promote me and take me to heaven to be a fairy.

Who knew that I would have such an unfortunate fate and meet those evil stars like Ge Qing and Zhu Tong?"

At this point, there is no need to hide it.

She spoke clearly and concisely, telling the story of how the talisman master was chopped with a knife, how evil spirit rushed into her head, how she spoke evil words, how she offended the Jade Emperor, and how the punishment from heaven was coming.

Aunt Liu seemed to have become a fool.

She was sitting in a wheelchair, her eyes bigger than bells, her mouth open enough for an orange to fit in, her face a confused look mixed with surprise and trance.

After a while, she murmured, "You are not dreaming that your fame has spread across the three realms and alarmed the Jade Emperor?"

"You are not dreaming!" Xiao Yu said seriously: "Even if you have been recuperating from your injuries recently and have stayed in Hongxiufang without going out, you must know how famous my name 'righteousness' is."

Aunt Liu looked dazed and said, "But you are famous in Tianmen Town and even in East Shu, how come you alarmed the Lord of the Three Realms?

That’s the Emperor of Heaven, not the King of Great Shu, not the Emperor of Shangbang, not even some great god, but directly the Emperor of Heaven.”

“I don’t know the reason, but I didn’t have a dream, nor did I have a brain storm. The talisman messenger has come, so could it be fake?
Or, do you think I dare to use the Jade Emperor and Heavenly Punishment to show off how powerful I am?" Xiao Yu said helplessly.

She could actually roughly guess the reason.

According to the Yin Gong theory described by Hu Chen, if people know it, then the ghosts and gods will also know it; if people have a reputation for good virtues, the ghosts and gods will definitely notice it.

No matter how corrupt the city gods and ghosts in the underworld system are, the basic purpose of the underworld system is still "punishing evil and promoting good, and educating the world."

If there are virtuous people in the world, we should praise them so that the world can see them, envy them, and imitate their good deeds; if there are evil people with evil deeds in the world, we should punish them so that the world can learn from them.

It involves real rewards and punishments, so ghosts and gods are needed to monitor and review.

There is no doubt that the original intention of establishing the Yin Gong system was good. As for the effect, Xiaoyu has not traveled far and wide and does not have enough experience to make any comments. She is just very sure that the underworld must have recorded her "great good deeds."

What really surprised her was that this incident actually alarmed the Heavenly Court.

"Even if you beat the talisman envoy, he will definitely report to the Emperor of Heaven? What kind of existence is the Emperor of Heaven? Does he have time to pay attention to you?" Aunt Liu said.

Xiao Yu sighed, “Of course I hope that the talisman envoy will only complain to his superiors and not alert the Emperor of Heaven.

But for a mortal like me, as long as it is a divine punishment from heaven, it makes no difference, and it can take my life."

"Alas, I never thought that after being a cousin all my life, I would have the honor of being related to the Emperor of Heaven."

Aunt Liu said with a dazed look, "If the talisman envoy wanted to report your crimes to the Emperor of Heaven, would he say 'Yu Fengxian of Hongxiufang'?
If the gods in heaven knew about Hongxiufang, would they immediately calculate that there was a 'Liu Ruyi' in Hongxiufang?
Oh, when I thought about the fact that I was mentioned by the Emperor of Heaven and remembered by the immortals, I was so excited that I couldn't control myself.

Do you think we should go outside the Yue Temple and invite a down-and-out scholar who writes letters to help Hongxiufang and record my biography?
And should we give a special mention to the "County Chronicles" of our Tianmen Town?
In a certain month and year, Yu Shi from Hongxiufang, at the age of eleven, committed a crime against the heavens and was punished by the heavens.

Xiao Yu said with a dark face: "You can find someone to write a biography of Liu Ruyi, but I don't have time to argue with you."

Aunt Liu calmed down and said, "If the punishment from heaven is coming, what else can you do? Did the Taoist Dog Meat give you any advice? He should be helpless, right? After all, it is a punishment from heaven."

"Don't ask too many questions, lest the Emperor of Heaven regard you as my accomplice, and when the heavenly punishment comes, you will be struck down as well." Xiao Yu said.

Aunt Liu's face changed and she said, "Xiao Fengxian, you should live outside these days. Hongxiufang has several farms and sloping lands outside the city. You can stay in the deserted mountains alone and be punished alone. Don't let others get involved.

Only when everyone is alive and well can they build a tomb and erect a tombstone for you, and also invite monks and Taoists to chant sutras for you.

Of course, I still hope that you can get through this disaster safely."

Xiao Yu wanted to make some sarcastic remarks, but after thinking carefully, she asked, "Is there a manor outside the East City Gate?"

She certainly doesn't want to sit there and wait for death.

It's not like she doesn't have a chance.

The dog-meat Taoist priest didn't know her trump card and said that if she just meditated at home, there was a good chance that she would get through this disaster safely.

After all, she only said "Even if God comes, he can't save Zhu Tong", and she didn't curse "God is a bastard" - cursing in the heart does not count.

If she enters a big river and hides in the quicksand river, even gods will find it difficult to capture her, right?
She has not yet fully tested the effect of "Kunpeng's Transformation" as there are no big rivers or lakes for her to test.

The Lianghe River and Qingshui River outside Xiaojingxuan are too shallow and can be easily seen by people, ghosts and gods.

Outside the East City Gate is her hometown of this life - Liusha River!

"Outside the East City Gate, there are only barren mountains and cliffs except for the flying car platform. There is no village." Aunt Liu said.

"Then let's go to the barren mountains outside the east city gate." Xiaoyu said.

"Why don't you go to Zhuangzi?" Aunt Liu asked puzzledly.

Although she told Xiaoyu to suffer the punishment from heaven quietly and not to involve others, she was puzzled by Xiaoyu's obedience.

Xiaoyu glanced at her and asked, "Do you really want to be my accomplice?"

"Oh, forget it. I won't ask anymore. I'll prepare a place for you right away. Now all I can do is try my best to meet your needs, and then I'll help you collect the body depending on the situation." Aunt Liu sighed.

"If you hadn't said the last sentence, I would still be a little touched." Xiaoyu said with a wooden face.

Going to the barren mountain by the river and waiting for "heaven's punishment" is just a backup option.

The first thing Xiaoyu had to do, of course, was to follow the advice of the Dog Meat Taoist and go to Xinghua Village outside the South City Gate to find Suxipo.

Xinghua Village is not difficult to find. Once you find Xinghua Village, the Su family is also right in front of you.

Suxipo is not alone.

He has a mother who is in her forties and a sister who is thirteen or fourteen years old.

I was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and I looked fair and gentle.

In Xinghua Village, the Su family was an extremely ordinary family with three brick houses, ten acres of land, a cow and two pigs.

When we found Suxipo in the afternoon, he was sitting by the cowshed reading a book, with a sickle and a straw basket beside him. His linen clothes were a little dirty, but very neat, and he didn't reveal his chest because of the hot weather.

Old Su sat under the eaves spinning. Younger Su carried the basket and leaned against her mother, chatting and laughing while she embroidered the shoe panels.

There were several chickens inside and outside the yard, crawling around in the corners to eat.

Very ordinary, but also very warm.

Xiaoyu stood on a big tree in the distance and looked out for a long time, but he couldn't find his place in the "harmonious and peaceful picture of Xinghua Village during the farming off-season" below.

Putting her anywhere in the "slack season picture" would make her seem out of place.

In the evening, Su Xiaomei accompanied Su Lao Niang in the kitchen and cooked a pot of bean rice - beans mixed with corn.

The dish was simple: a plate of pickled garlic sprouts, a can of firewood fish, and lentils fried with lard.

The next morning, Su Xipo carried a hoe and went to the fields.

Xiaoyu pretended to be a passerby who was visiting relatives in the city and went to the Su family to ask for a bowl of water.

Aunt Su was very enthusiastic, and Miss Su was very lively. They pulled her aside and asked her about everything, such as where she was from and why she was out alone at such a young age.
In the end, Aunt Su insisted on asking her to stay at home for lunch.

Su Xiaomei went to the village entrance and bought two pieces of tofu. For lunch, she added fried tofu with green onions, fried eggs with leeks, and lard mixed with black fungus.

Because there was a female guest, Su Xipo bowed through the curtain and ate in the kitchen with his bowl in hand.

After the meal, Xiaoyu completely gave up the idea of ​​borrowing his blessing to ward off disaster.

After bidding farewell to the Su family, Xiao Yu first left Xinghua Village along the main road, then turned around and climbed over the eaves and walls to find Niu Er's house.

"Wow, what a fat dog! No wonder the dog meat Taoist priest is greedy for it."

Although both are Chinese native dogs, Niu Er’s Dahuang is obviously taller and more powerful.

Not only is it huge in size and has shiny fur, it also has a special charm.

"Huh, you noticed me? And you still want to run away? You have such a sharp sense!" Xiaoyu said in surprise.

She stood on the poplar tree behind Niu Er's house.

The big yellow dog was napping on the stone slab under the shade of a tree at the front door.

The distance was more than fifty meters, but the big yellow dog suddenly stood up and looked back vigilantly at the top of the poplar tree.

Xiaoyu had sharp eyes and could see the dog's face change from confusion to ferociousness and finally to fear, before it turned around and ran out.

"Could this dog have become a spirit?"

Xiao Yu did not chase after him immediately, but instead practiced the "Breath-Restraining Technique" to restrain his own breath.

Hu Chen is not dead.

Hu Chen went to the East to seek a great future, so the "method of sneak attack and assassination of Hu Chen" did not disappear from Zifu.

To assassinate Hu Chen secretly, you must first break his clairvoyance.

To defeat the clairvoyance, one must first suppress one's breath, and secondly become invisible.

Because her strength has increased so rapidly recently, the deduction of the method to break the Clairvoyance has almost stagnated. She has completed 80% of the Breath-Containing Technique and 40% of the Invisibility Technique.

If you can't deal with a clairvoyant, it should be enough to deal with a dog.

An hour later, they were in the grass on a hillside more than 20 miles away from Niu Er's home.

The big yellow dog lay on the ground, sticking out its long tongue, breathing heavily, its big eyes blinking, looking very smart.

"That was a close call! He was almost killed. Alas, I can no longer stay at the Niu Er family.

Last time it was a stinky Taoist priest with shifty eyes, but this time... well, I just felt a ferocious tiger with bloody murderous aura pouncing on me, but I didn’t see the figure clearly, so it seemed that it was not that stinky Taoist priest.

The world is difficult and dangerous, humans are evil, I must leave But, I haven’t repaid you yet!

Niu Er will meet a disaster in half a year. Although he is not a good person, he is my master. He has raised me for more than 20 years and we grew up together. I have to save him. It’s difficult, difficult~”

"If it's difficult, don't do it." A light laugh sounded above its head.

In an instant, the dog's hair stood on end, and it stretched its legs and stretched its head to bite in the direction of the sound.

"Woof woof~~"

"Crack~~~" A black scabbard gently tapped the canine teeth in the dog's mouth. The combined force of the upper and lower collisions actually broke the thick and long canine teeth on the woman's middle finger.

"Ow~~~"

The dog screamed miserably, fell heavily to the ground, rolled twice, got up and crawled into the thorn bush.

"If you dare to run, I will stab you to death with my sword." Xiao Yu sneered.

The big yellow dog stiffened its body, turned around slowly, hugged its front ears together, and bowed to her in a funny way, whining.

"Speak!" Xiaoyu said.

"I can't speak human language." said Da Huang.

Xiao Yu raised the scabbard, gently slapped the dog's face, and cursed: "Let me cut open your dog body and take a good look at your dog courage. Is it bigger than the sky?"

"The dog is timid." Dahuang shivered.

"You're such a cowardly dog, how dare you beat around the bush and call me a non-human?" Xiao Yu kicked it.

Da Huang was aggrieved and cried out, "I didn't curse."

"Quibbling!" Xiaoyu kicked again, this time very hard.

The big yellow dog huddled on the ground and dared not struggle. It could only whimper and beg, with tears as big as broad beans welling up in its eyes.

Xiao Yu was just pretending to be angry, but now she was really angry and shouted, "What a cunning dog, you dare to act so pretentiously, as if I am the bad guy.

I asked you, I just asked you to speak human language, but you spoke, but you said something that was not human language. Aren't you calling me a non-human?"

The big yellow dog said, "Fairy, you have great magical powers and can understand the demon language. I am not speaking human language."

Xiao Yu was startled, "Are you speaking demon language?"

"Yeah, the little beast hasn't even refined its transverse bone, how can it speak human language?" said the big yellow dog pitifully.
