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

Chapter 437: Peony Has Not Returned

Xiaoyu smiled and said, "What are you going to do?"

There were some things that she understood from the beginning, but she couldn't tell Xiaoqiang directly.

Talk to it directly, as if you are ordering it to do something.

In other matters, she can order it; when it comes to protecting its master, she can only encourage it and help it understand on its own.

Xiao Qiang said: "Let Niu Er die tragically as retribution for now, as a way to atone for his past evil deeds.

When he dies, I will snatch his soul away.

Well, if a ghost wants to take him away, I will snatch him away.

After taking away his soul, I will send him to the Demon-Suppressing Tower inside Goubao and lock him up with those evil spirits.

From now on, I will follow my master and convert to Buddhism. My master will teach me the Dharma, and I will use the Dharma to convert Niu Er."

Xiao Yu shook her head and said, "We will be separated soon, and I don't have time to teach you Buddhism.

Moreover, the Buddhism I learned is Hinayana Buddhism, which can only save myself, not others."

"Please teach me, master!" Xiaoqiang sat on the ground with his dog butt, stretched out his two front paws, and bowed to her.

It is also a smart one and can see that its master is guiding its thinking.

If you can guide it to think, it will definitely come up with the answer long ago.

Xiao Yu said: "You can teach people with your mouth, and so can you with your fists and whips.

Some people can be persuaded by reason, but some people are naturally unwilling to listen.

Niu Er must belong to the latter category.

Fists and chains are more effective against such people.

He was chained to prevent him from doing evil, and beaten with fists as punishment for his evil deeds.

In this way, his evil deeds and evil thoughts can be cut off.

In the future, if you do more good deeds with his ghost, you will be able to earn some merit over time.

Alas, it's a pity that I, your master, have not yet become a Buddha, otherwise I could give you a 'Heart-Locking Mantra'.

With the Heart Locking Spell, things become much simpler."

Xiao Qiang asked: "What is the Heart Locking Spell?"

Xiao Yu said: "I tempered the 'foreign object' with the Buddha's heart, forged it into a heart-locking circle, and drove it into Niu Er's mind.

The heart-locking circle is like an iron hoop, tightly binding his soul. Once he dares to have evil thoughts, the evil thoughts will surely grow.

Evil thoughts grew, and the heart-locking circle tightened, breaking his heart and causing him so much pain that all his thoughts were scattered.

To break the circle of love, you must inspire good thoughts in yourself.

Use your own good thoughts to offset the evil thoughts of the heart-locking circle.

Just like rain eroding an iron hoop, the accumulated kindness eventually completely unlocks the mantra."

Xiao Qiang sucked in a breath of cool ghost air and said in shock: "The master's heart-locking spell is so vicious, it's not a Buddhist method!"

"The Heart-Locking Curse cannot harm a good person at all, so how can it be so vicious?" Xiao Yu said.

"Although it can't hurt good people, it can make bad people's lives worse than death. I think they would rather suffer in the eighteen levels of hell than wear a heart-locking circle on their souls." Xiaoqiang said.

Xiao Yu sighed, "You are still a little narrow-minded. My Heart-Locking Spell only targets the evil thoughts of bad people.

The Buddhist methods of subduing demons are much more powerful than my Heart-Locking Mantra.

Even if you are a good person, if you just disobey me, I can still cast a spell to give you a splitting headache."

"What kind of method is that? Buddhism has used it on someone, why don't I know about it?" Xiao Qiang asked suspiciously.

Xiao Yu said: "What does the Buddhist method have to do with you? As the saying goes, a filial son is born under the stick.

If you want to educate Niu Er's ghost into a good ghost, you must use harsh methods.

If not, it is the fault of the father if the son is not taught, and it is the fault of Xiao Qiang if Niu Er is not taught. "

Xiao Qiang nodded and said, "When Niu Er becomes a ghost, I will teach him myself.

However, simply teaching him the truth cannot resolve the bad karma he has committed.

Please help me think about whether he can find a job similar to Dr. Lu that can steadily earn Yin Gong. "

Xiao Yu said: "If you want stability, you can take him to the blessed land of the underworld to do hard labor, such as building bridges and paving roads for ghosts, working as oxen and horses, and plowing fields.

There is never a lack of opportunities to do good things in this world. As long as you are willing to look for them and do them with all your heart, you can accumulate some Yin Merit. "

Xiaoyu took Xiaoqiang and left Xinghua Village.

On the way back, Xiaoyu confessed to it about his trip to Baijiazhuang.

"It turns out that the master followed me as soon as I left, and arrived before me."

Xiaoqiang felt complicated, feeling touched and grateful, as well as relieved and helpless.

Although the owner says he doesn't care about Niu Er, he must hate Niu Er in his heart.

Although the animal was very disgusted with the idea of ​​"saving Niu Er", the owner was still worried about it and followed it.

The master was indeed in danger.

The one who cursed Niu Er was just a little vixen, but behind the little vixen was a powerful fox fairy.

If it didn't have a master, if it hadn't met its master, and if it met a fox fairy, let alone a fox fairy, it probably wouldn't be able to defeat even a little vixen.

Its gratitude and helplessness came from the fact that it had recognized a reality: it claimed to be a loyal dog, but it couldn't even repay a favor.

If it weren't for its owner's patient and careful guidance, it would still be obsessed with saving Niu Er's life rather than saving his soul.

"Master, thank you." Xiaoqiang said in a low voice.

Xiao Yu glanced at it and said softly, "Please take good care of Cui Er and her son. When I'm away, remember to read more and think more."

"Well, I'll go to the Wang family now. Only when Niu Er dies, I will feel something in my heart and go to take away his soul. From now on, I will never leave the Wang family without permission." Xiaoqiang solemnly promised.

Xiao Yu said, "There's no need to be so strict. During the day, you can follow your own feelings. If you feel that your spiritual senses are clear today and the Wang family is not in danger, you can take an hour or two to go out for a walk and take Niu Er to do some good deeds that benefit ghosts and people.

Do more small good things that are not controversial.

Don’t do anything that is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong.

Seek stability and don't be greedy.

Doctor Lu has been practicing medicine in Fudi for more than ten years.

According to what he said, it might take him several more decades to accumulate merit.

In less than ten years, I will come back to find you.

By then, I might be able to create the 'Heart Locking Spell' to help you educate Niu Er."

"No, that's not necessary. I taught him a lesson with a stick and locked him up with an iron chain. That's enough." Xiao Qiang said with an unnatural expression.

After all, Niu Er was its former owner.

It wasn't suppressing his soul.

It's just repaying a favor in the right way.

After returning to Tianmen Town, Xiaoqiang went to Wang's house.

Xiaoyu took a nap for an hour, and after waking up, he went to Wang's house in the back alley to teach Sister Cui'er how to refine the sword pill.

At noon, she politely declined Sister Cui'er's invitation to stay for dinner.

She planned to go to Tianbaoju to say some farewell words to Shaoyao.

Peony's situation is actually more troublesome than Ziying and the others.

Ziying may have the talent to become the "first courtesan" in Tianmen Town, but she is just an unregistered "girl" at this time, and the money for redemption is small and the redemption process is simple. However, it is difficult for Shaoyao to gain true freedom.

Xiaoyu truly treats Shaoyao as a friend, and even as a sister.

Ziying is young and more like her sister and apprentice. Only Shaoyao gives her the feeling of being cared for and concerned.

But Xiaoyu didn't even know how to help her.

Although Shaoyao seems to be free, she is actually the cash cow of Prince Qinghe.

Not only does it help Prince Qinghe make money, but it also helps him gain connections and favors.

Probably also shouldering certain political and intelligence tasks.

If that were all, Xiaoyu could ask Li Xianzhi for a favor.

Li Xianzhi is a smart man. If nothing unexpected happens, he should give her some face.

Sister Shaoyao happened to be involved with the prince at this time.
"The young lady is not at home. She left yesterday afternoon and hasn't come back yet." The maid Cuirong said with a worried look.

Xiaoyu frowned slightly and asked, "Sister Shaoyao is in Yonghe Palace?"

Peony is no longer a virgin.

When Xiaoyu first met her on the Qingshui River pleasure boat, she used her spiritual eyes to observe her "aura of life and death" and saw it - she and Shaoyao had no friendship at that day, but was very curious about her identity as "the number one prostitute in Tianmen Town", so she used the secret medical skills to observe her secretly.

"The first pure prostitute" was indeed nonsense, she was complaining in her heart at the time.

But Sister Shaoyao is still known as "the most elegant prostitute in Tianmen Town".

This title could help her earn more appearance fees and gain more admiration and respect from noblemen, but it also put a great restraint on her words and deeds - a bit like the "jade girl" superstar in her previous life.

Generally speaking, no matter how late it is, Sister Shaoyao will not spend the night outside.

For example, Zhao Zhen’s performance in Zishan Villa.

Zhao Zhen prepared a small courtyard for everyone to rest, except for Shaoyao.

Zhao really understands the "rules".

Who didn't know the rules last night?
The prince, or Sister Shaoyao herself?

"Yesterday, Miss Shuixian from the Qiehou family came of age, and our daughter received an invitation."

Cuirong also understood the rule of "the jade woman is a big star", and a trace of confusion and worry appeared on her face, "Maybe the coming-of-age ceremony is over, and the girl has gone somewhere else."

"Qian Hou Huo Yuangang" Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, then asked: "Fat Moler and Hongxiang are following Shaoyao?"

If it was Huo Yuangang, she probably wouldn't need to worry.

Because Huo Yuangang is a famous "martial arts fanatic" in East Shu.

Everyone knows that he loves to exercise.

He often ran to the martial arts training ground in the middle of the night to lift stone locks, and refused to get close to his wife and concubines.

"Well, wherever the girl goes, Fatty Moler will follow her. Hongxiang and I will take turns to serve her."

After hesitating for a moment, Cuirong continued, "In the past, if a girl stayed overnight outside, she would ask Hongxiang or me to come back and get some clothes to change into."

Xiao Yu felt inexplicably irritated, "Shaoyao hasn't come back yet, have you gone to the Qiehou family to inquire?"

Cuirong shook her head repeatedly, "If the girl is not at the Huo family, and I go to ask around, won't that let everyone know that the girl disappeared for a whole night?"

"Then go to Yonghe Palace and ask." Xiaoyu said.

Cuirong's eyes flickered as she said, "If the young lady is in Yonghe Palace, there is no need to ask.

Asking about it would only disgust His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Not only am I hated, but more importantly, is there anything urgent, young lady?
You are a noble, you can go to Yonghe Palace to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person."

Xiaoyu shook her head and said, "It's nothing serious. You continue to wait at home, I will be back in the evening."

After saying that, she walked out.

"Miss, don't you want to stay for lunch? I have prepared some food and can heat it up for you." Cuirong invited.

"I have something to do at Xianyun Temple. I'll be back for dinner." Xiaoyu said.

She saw a group of vixens in Baijiazhuang last night, and she wanted to talk to the dog-meat Taoist priest about it.

As early as several months ago, the Taoist Dog Meat said that the Qingqiu Fox had set its sights on Suxipo.

That guy must be hiding a lot of things from her.

She originally planned to have lunch with Shaoyao first, say farewell, and then go to Xianyun Temple in the evening.

After asking about the affairs of Baijiazhuang, he asked the old Taoist priest to help summon the Divine Mace Taibao to come.

Before leaving, she must meet the Divine Mace Guardian.

After a while, Xianyun Temple.

"So, you have seen those Qingqiu foxes?"

The old Taoist priest looked puzzled and looked her up and down. "You didn't have any conflict with them?"

Xiao Yu ate the big meat buns she bought on the road and asked vaguely, "We are both reasonable, why did we have a conflict?"

The “reasonable” old Taoist priest said strangely: “Don’t you hate evil and want to eliminate evil when you see it?

That group of vixens brought disaster to the Su family and stole Su Xipo's vitality and blessings.

In your eyes, it should be considered a demon, right?
Is it possible that the old fox from Qingqiu is too powerful and you are frightened?"

Xiao Yu raised her head and glanced at him, "Have you been in contact with Brother Bai before?"

"You even called him 'Old Brother Bai'. Are you just being sentimental, or does the old fox like you?" the old Taoist priest asked in astonishment.

Xiao Yu said proudly: "Brother Bai took the initiative to treat me as an equal and even asked his great-granddaughter to recognize me as her godmother."

Before the Great Dad Destruction was launched, she was willing to call "Dad" no matter who she was facing.

Once the Great Destruction of Father is initiated, no matter who he is, he is her "son".

She could still call him "brother" now, all thanks to the old man Bai's thoughtful hospitality last night.

The old Taoist was stunned for a moment, then said firmly: "You have indeed been targeted by the old fox."

"Have you met Brother Bai? You seem to know him very well." Xiaoyu asked again.

The old Taoist hesitated for a moment, but still nodded slightly.

His divination skills are far inferior to those of the old fox.

It was the old fox who first discovered what he had done to Suxipo and took the initiative to talk to him.

The experience was not a pleasant one. The old Taoist priest felt very aggrieved and was not willing to recall the past.

"Did he send his daughter to you as your wife?" Xiao Yu asked.

The old Taoist priest rolled his eyes at her and said, "I am a Taoist priest, a monk!"

"What's the big deal about being a monk? I'm still a little nun, only thirteen years old!"

Xiao Yu laughed and said, "It seems that there is nothing about you that is worth his attention."

The old Taoist was dumbfounded, "Did he originally intend to give you a male fox as your husband?
It’s simply heartbreaking!

How old are you?

Moreover, you are the great plague god, you are stinking dog shit.

He is about to pass the calamity of the Sky Fox, how dare he get involved with you?

Su Xipo's good fortune alone may not be enough to protect him."
