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

Chapter 232 I'm afraid I'm worse than a dog

The dog shouted excitedly, “I followed the master’s instructions and finally came to Luojia Village. I also found the paddy field where the deer monster was buried, but the pit had already been dug up and there was almost nothing left inside.

I was very angry and also very confused.

The master will definitely not lie, and there is no need to lie.

So who stole my deer demon and went into the water?

I immediately followed the scent of the deer monster to Luojia Village. Many households had the scent of the deer monster, and this family hung a deer monster heart and liver directly under the eaves.

I went into the yard and sniffed carefully, and I smelled the pungent smell of deer penis again. That was also the deer demon going down into the water!
I finally found the thief who stole the deer monster into the water.

I'm not stealing, I'm taking back what belongs to me.

But when I got the deer whip back, I felt a little thirsty, so I drank two sips of wine. I had never drunk alcohol before, and I never knew it tasted so good. I couldn't help but drink a few more sips.

And then I didn’t know anything.”

Xiaoyu finally understood how it died.

"You stupid dog! You are a stray dog. You ran into someone else's house and ruined hundreds of taels of silver worth of medicinal wine. Shouldn't they beat you to death with a stick while you were drunk?"

"Ah, that's why. I'm drunk. It's my first time drinking and my first time getting drunk." Xiao Qiang was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "But he stole my Deer Demon first! If he didn't steal anything, how could I find his house and get drunk?"

It screamed more and more sadly and aggrieved, "I am so wronged! I don't need a dog treasure, I can bite dozens of such old mortals with my mouth. Now he died in such a cowardly way after getting drunk. It's so unfair, master, it's so unfair to me~~~"

"Don't shout yet." Xiao Yu turned to look at Old Man Luo, who looked suspicious, and asked, "Wasn't the deer monster buried in the ground after it went into the water? Who dug it out again?"

Old Man Luo frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Fairy Yu, I went to Tianmen Town with you that day, and I don't know what happened in the village. Please wait a moment, I will go out and find out."

Seeing Xiaoyu nod, he opened the door again and walked out quickly.

Don't forget to close the door when you leave.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Old Man Luo squeezed in through the crack in the door and said, "The earth pit where the deer monster was buried has really been dug up.

People had never eaten demon meat before, and didn't know that demon meat was so nutritious. It is said that several young men who had just started practicing martial arts had their bodies become hot and their energy surged after eating venison, and they directly developed internal strength.

The news spread throughout the village, and those who did not get the deer monster meat shouted that they had missed out on a great fortune.

Some people said that the deer monster went into the water and was buried in the fields, so it could be dug out and cooked and eaten.

Some people also said that Fairy Yu was warning everyone that the deer demon practiced evil magic, and its internal organs and intestines were not clean, which could cause bad things to happen to people if they ate them.

There were families with poor financial conditions who wanted their sons to learn martial arts and did not care about the cleanliness. When we went to Tianmen Town, they dug up the earth pit, dug out the intestines, washed them, and made braised pork intestines.

It tasted delicious and didn’t make me sick.”

After saying this, he looked embarrassed and a little awkward.

Now he understood that the deer demon buried in the ground went into the water to prepare for the dog of Fairy Yu's family. However, Fairy Yu had not returned home yet and the dog was dug out after going into the water.
Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Qiang's ghost and said, "Did you hear that? You wronged Uncle Luo. His deer penis and deer heart were all given to him by me. They were not offal dug out of the ground."

"Then he shouldn't have taken advantage of me being drunk to beat and kill me. At most you can pay him money, but why kill him!" Xiaoqiang cried aggrievedly.

“You are not human.”

To be honest, Xiaoyu also felt that Xiaoqiang was a little wronged.

But she had no reason to blame Old Man Luo.

Even for a rich peasant like "Luojiacun Bawangqiang", two hundred and seventy taels of silver could be considered "coffin money".

If Xiaoqiang was a human, Old Man Luo would definitely tie him up, wait until he sobered up and ask him what happened, and then ask him for compensation.

But Xiaoqiang is a local dog.

"Lao Luo, this dog is quite resentful. Return its dog skin, dog whip, and everything else on it to it.

Well, please prepare a bamboo basket for me, I need to take away all the remains.

The corpse must be kept as intact as possible to eliminate its resentment, liberate it, and allow it to reincarnate in the underworld.

As for your loss, I am its owner and I must compensate you in full.

I was in a hurry to leave today and I didn't bring any money with me. I'll have someone send some money over tomorrow."

Lao Luo waved his hands quickly and said, “I killed the fairy’s pet dog and ate its meat.

The fairy doesn't blame me, I already feel bad, how can I ask for more money from the fairy?"

Seeing that Xiao Yu wanted to say more, Lao Luo said sternly: "Fairy Yu, if you still have some respect for me, Lao Luo, don't mention money!

After all, the fairy dog ​​drank wine, not stole my silver.

If I could treat you with good wine and if you knew that the big yellow dog who stole the wine was your beloved dog, I, Old Luo, would be happy to do so.

It's meaningless for you to talk to me about money now."

"Okay, this time you're treating me with good wine. Next time I get good wine, I'll treat you as well." Xiaoyu said.

Upon hearing this, Lao Luo immediately smiled happily and nodded repeatedly, saying, "If the fairy invites me to drink, even if I am dead and become a ghost by then, I will definitely attend the appointment!"

After saying that, he found a bamboo basket and handed it to Xiaoyu, then quickly ran back into the house.

After Xiaoyu put the dog bones into the basket, he came out with a cloth bag that smelled of wine.

"Fairy Yu, in addition to the dog's penis, I also found a piece of dog treasure in its stomach. Let's soak it in the wine together." "There's also a piece of dog treasure?"

Xiaoyu was surprised at first, then quickly realized that Xiaoqiang's dog treasure had not yet been refined into a magic pill and would not disappear with Xiaoqiang's death.

"Hmm, it's quite a big lump." Lao Luo looked a little strange. "Your dog is really not an ordinary one. The dog treasure and dog penis have been soaked in the wine for only one or two days. When we opened the jar, the aroma of the wine has surpassed the best 'Thousand-year-old Ginseng Wine' in the city. How about you take the wine jar back with you?"

"No need, keep it for yourself." Xiao Yu opened the cloth bag, took the dog treasure and played with it, and said with emotion: "Lao Luo, you are a lucky person. My dog ​​is not as advanced as the deer monster, but its dog treasure is equivalent to a monster pill embryo. Now the spiritual energy in the dog treasure has dissipated by nearly half, and the jar of spiritual wine is more effective than the deer penis wine."

After piecing the corpse together as much as possible, Xiaoqiang's resentment was indeed much relieved.

But when Xiao Yu carried the basket back to "Yu Mansion" and recited the "Sacred Sutra for the Deliverance of the Dead" for most of the night to pray for the soul of the dog, it was to no avail.

"Xiao Qiang, is there something wrong with you, or is my chanting ineffective?" Xiao Yu asked puzzledly.

"Yu Mansion" had been emptied by its previous owner. There was no bed, table, chairs, pots, pans, or anything else.

Now, there are only two newly bought futons placed in the main room, making the house look even more spacious.

If a person talks inside, he can even hear an echo.

She sat at the bottom of the hall, with a pile of odds and ends in front of her, including dog skin, broken bones, dog treasures, dog whips, dog skulls, dog paws, and so on.
Xiaoqiang's ghost floats above the fragments.

At this point it was no longer a foggy whirlwind, it was almost the same as it had been in life.

If you ignore the negative energy in its body, it is just a fat yellow dog.

"Master, your scriptures seem to have some effect. I vaguely feel a pulling force, which should be pulling me to the underworld. However, it seems that my life span has not yet ended, so it is not time for me to go to the underworld yet." Xiaoqiang said.

"You are already dead, how can you still have a long life?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

Xiao Qiang thought for a moment and said, "My death was in vain. My life as a dog in the Book of Life and Death has not ended yet, and it shouldn't end today. I may have to wait until the rest of my life as a dog in the Book of Life and Death ends.

Moreover, humans have a lifespan, and ghosts have a lifespan. Ghosts will only enter the underworld and reincarnate when their lifespan is exhausted.

Not only am I not destined to die, I will also have a long lifespan. I will probably have to wait another 156 years!"

Xiao Yu was more and more surprised. "How do you know this? 156 years, and still so accurate."

Xiao Qiang said with emotion: "Although I am dead, the wisdom I gained from eating the 'Buddha's head' has not disappeared."

An uncertain look appeared on its face. "Perhaps I have forgiven Old Man Luo. I have realized the spirit of the great monk who sacrificed his life for justice. After this great enlightenment, my wisdom seems to be more 'transparent' than before.

I can vaguely grasp the mysterious inspiration and immediately understand the rules of heaven and earth that I didn’t know before. Mainly the rules of the underworld world of ghosts and gods. "

"You sacrificed your life for justice and gained enlightenment?" Xiao Yu looked skeptical, "What did you gain enlightenment?"

Xiao Qiang said, "I died once, and I don't have any realization? And even though I died unjustly, in a very tragic and unjust way, I don't have much resentment now, and I have almost given up the thought of seeking revenge on Old Man Luo. This state of mind and realization can almost be compared with that of Buddha."

If it was still a living dog with flesh and blood, she would definitely kick its butt.

"You have no awareness at all! If I hadn't helped you to resolve your grudge, you would still be a vicious ghost dog."

Xiao Qiang said seriously: "If you want to dispel my resentment, I have to figure it out myself. Once I figure it out, I will be enlightened, just like the Buddha who was killed by Niu Er that day."

Then it changed the subject and said, "Of course, I am just an enlightened one. Master, you have helped me and you are a great benefactor. I will follow you from now on to repay your kindness."

Xiaoyu doesn't really want a ghost dog.

"How about we go find the Dog Meat Taoist tomorrow, or go find Chi Jiu Luo next door, and ask them to help you to be liberated?

You are a dog in this life, very bitter and miserable, maybe you can be reborn as a human in the next life."

Xiao Qiang shook his head and said, "I have a feeling that once I enter reincarnation, all the 'Buddha affinity' and 'Buddha wisdom' I got from the Buddha head will disappear, and I will be in a muddle in the next life and start all over again.

Even if he were reborn as a human, he would just be a vulgar, stupid and shameless villain like Niu Erlang and Gui Sanbao from Soy Sauce Lane.

Most people in the world are of that kind of roughness.

When I was a dog, I looked down on them. If one day I became a person like them, I would be ignorant and willing to engage in lowly and low-level pleasures, but today I would definitely be heartbroken and extremely unwilling.

If I had almost become a villain like my former master, Niu Er from Xinghua Village, I would rather be an animal without wisdom.

Being an ignorant animal, at least you will only be eliminating karma throughout your life without committing any sins.

Even if God blesses me and allows me to be reborn as an ordinary good person with a conscience like Blacksmith Zhai, Aunt Zhang, Grandpa Li, and Widow Huang, what fun is there in living an ordinary life like them without any hope of escaping the cycle of reincarnation in my entire lifetime?
The parents of my former master, Niu Er from Xinghua Village, were really good people.

But for those good people, the pain in their lives is far greater than the joy."

After saying this, it shook its head with emotion and chanted a poem: "Although I have been a ghost for a day or two, I have neither joy nor sorrow. My master wants me to be a human being, but I am afraid that I am worse than a dog."

Xiao Yu didn't kick it or scold it for showing off in front of her. Instead, she looked at it with strange eyes and said, "You don't seem to have any future as a ghost dog like this."

Xiao Qiang raised his head and said excitedly, "Why don't I have a future? I still have the wisdom of Buddha. With great wisdom, I can find a great future!"

Xiao Yu asked, "Does your great wisdom tell you how to find a great future next?"

Xiao Qiang lowered his proud head, and a flattering expression appeared on his dog face. "I don't need to use 'great wisdom' to search, I have always known that my future will always depend on you, my master.

Master, I am not feeling very well right now, my soul is not solid enough, do you have a way to let the ghost dog practice?"

Xiao Yu smiled strangely, "You are lucky, I do have a set of ghost fairy methods here."
