Strange Tales of the Ghosts

After Shan Lingqi left Bingyu, Wu Yong was angry with Shan Ling for two days. Shan Ling said all kinds of things, so Wu Yong started to eat. However, within two days of the quiet and comfortable days, something big happened. The emperor received the memorial and heard that Qi A number of people died in Shuixian County, but they could not get to the bottom of the matter. In anger, the Holy Emperor punished Wu Yong for his crime of inaction and removed Wu Yong from the county magistrate's seat. Wu Yong knew who the new county magistrate was without having to think about it. With this, the person who took the position of county magistrate became Master Huang. Wu Yong didn't know what method Master Huang used, but he knew that he must be with Master Huang. Those who colluded. Fortunately, Wu Yong has no intention of being a county magistrate now. After cleaning up Xinruan, he will return to his hometown with Shan Ling. Master Huang would let Wu Yong leave so easily? No, after reviewing the plan, Huang County Magistrate asked the officers and soldiers to escort Wu Yong and Shan Ling back halfway. Above the court, the promoted Master Huang clapped the gavel. Amidst the mighty sounds from both sides, Wu Yong slowly raised his head.

"Bold Wu Yong, why don't you kneel down when you see me?"

When Wu Yong saw that 'Master Huang' had turned into County Magistrate Huang, he turned against him faster than flipping through a book. He sneered: "I am the former County Magistrate. I have not broken any laws and have not been involved in the case. Why should I kneel down?"

"Hmph, do you mean you are innocent when you say you are innocent?" County Magistrate Huang looked at his official uniform and said with a smile: "Don't forget, you are not the county magistrate now, I am!" With that, he gave the official messenger With a wink, the two yamen almost nodded, walked towards Wu Yong, and pushed Wu Yong to his knees on the ground.

Wu Yong couldn't get angry, so he struggled and said: "Well, Master Huang, I treated you well in the past, but I didn't expect that today you would show your official power to me!"

"Bold! You, a commoner, actually roared in court, come here! Drag Wu Yong out and hit him with twenty boards!" Huang County Magistrate slapped the alarm and gave the order to the commander.

Seeing that the government officials were about to take action, Shan Ling hurriedly asked: "Slow down!"

"Aunt Wu, your son despises official authority, what do you have to say?" Magistrate Huang looked at the mountain spirit with a smile. Yesterday, he worshiped the mother and son of the mountain spirit as bodhisattvas just so that he could feel proud today.

The mountain spirit replied unhurriedly: "The civilian woman would like to ask you, sir, what crime did my son commit? Why did you take our mother and son?"

"What crime? Hahahaha." County Magistrate Huang laughed, clapped the gavel tree and yelled: "Your son Wu Yong used his position as county magistrate to rape a girl. If the girl didn't obey, he poisoned her. Such a serious crime , I am not cured now, how long will it take to wait!?”

"You... are spitting blood!" Wu Yong was furious and struggled hard.

After hearing what County Magistrate Huang said, Shan Ling naturally understood a lot. Magistrate Huang dared to say this because he was afraid that some people had been bribed by Magistrate Huang. This case has complete witnesses and physical evidence. From the perspective of the king's law, Wu Yong could no longer escape. The mountain spirit stopped talking and closed his eyes, letting his son be dragged out. But she didn't really care. She cared so much for her son, how could she let her son be wronged... When Wu Yong was hit on the buttocks one by one, Wu Yong didn't feel any pain at all. At this time, Wu Yong knew in his heart that his mother must have used magic to protect him, so he shouted loudly: "Surname Huang, you treacherous villain, you are not qualified to be a county magistrate!"

"Bold maniac, you dare to insult me. Beat me! Beat me hard!" Magistrate Huang's face turned green with anger.

The cadres who beat him felt that they had exerted all their strength, but looking at Wu Yong's appearance, it didn't seem to hurt at all. In addition to feeling strange, they could only beat him hard, one step after another. It fell on Wu Yong. After the beating, the officer in charge of beating him was so tired that he was sweating profusely and reported back: "Sir, Wu Yong's twenty big boards have been beaten!"

"Let him draw the mark!"

"Yes, sir." After hearing this, the Yamen hurriedly took the pen and paper from the new master and walked towards Wu Yong. Wu Yong refused, but he was forcibly drawn. The Yamen handed over the signed paper. In the hands of County Magistrate Huang, Magistrate Huang looked at it and ordered with a sly smile: "The case has been decided, the criminal will be escorted to prison and will be executed tomorrow!" When Wu Yong heard this, he laughed desperately, and the mountain spirit knelt in the hall without saying a word. Fa, I don’t know whether it was the incompetence of Magistrate Huang or an idiot, but he didn’t take care of Shan Ling. After retiring, Shan Ling left Qishui County. Her move was reported to Magistrate Huang by the Yamen. The county magistrate laughed after hearing this: "The love between mother and son in the world is so weak, it's ridiculous, it's ridiculous."

"Sir, are we still going to follow?" The two yamen who were originally following Shan Ling asked in a low voice.

County Magistrate Huang drank tea and replied: "No, what can a woman do? The case has been closed, so let her go." After he said that, the two yamen left, and Magistrate Huang at this time He was in an indescribably good mood. What he had planned for a long time finally came true. He became the county magistrate as he wished, and he also closed the case, which made him admire his own cleverness. Within a short while, those people who were fawning came. They all heard that Mr. Huang was promoted to the county magistrate. Of course they wanted to invite a banquet and give gifts as a sign of friendship. County Magistrate Huang did not refuse, and just said that he would put the matter on hold. One day, because he had to watch Wu Yong beheaded in order to feel at ease.

Just when everyone else thought Shan Ling had gone away, Shan Ling returned to Qishui County without anyone noticing, and went to the prison. After searching from cell to cell, Shan Ling finally found his son. The son looked lonely and could only sit on the pile of withered grass. Not to mention the pain in Shan Ling's heart.

"Use..."

"Mother..." Wu Yong looked up and saw the mountain spirit, feeling a little excited.

The mountain spirit was afraid that others would hear, so he quickly said: "Keep your voice down."

"Yes." Wu Yong nodded. He knew that his mother would not ignore him and would definitely find a way to save him, so he was not panicked at all. It was the Huang County Magistrate who made him feel hateful.

After Shan Ling looked and saw that no one was outside, he whispered to Wu Yong: "Yong'er, my mother will take you away tonight."

"Mom, if we just leave like this, won't we let that traitor get an advantage?" Wu Yong said angrily.

However, Magistrate Huang's bloody trolling and arrogant actions made his teeth itch with hatred.

Shan Ling advised: "Yong'er, now is not the time to act out of loyalty. If you go to the execution ground tomorrow and mother wants to save you, it will alarm other people. Then..." Shan Ling is thinking about his son's future. , if they escape now, people may forget about it in a few years. But if more people are alerted tomorrow at the execution site, people will be suspicious of Wu Yong's identity. In that case, Wu Yong will be there. I can't stay in this world anymore.

Wu Yong turned his head after hearing this and said stubbornly: "I won't leave. If I leave, won't I admit that I killed those people?"

"Yong'er..." Shan Ling sighed and wanted to persuade. At this moment, a big net was lowered from the cell, trapping Shan Ling in it. The net was covered with talismans, and Shan Ling couldn't struggle out. Wu Yong Seeing him, he shouted out loud: "Mom!"

"Yong'er..." As soon as the mountain spirit touched the talisman paper, he felt unbearable pain. He knew that it must have been drawn by someone with high magic power, so he cried and shouted: "Yong'er, you must live..."

At this time, Magistrate Huang laughed loudly and appeared in front of the cell. Beside him was a disabled man who was carried over. Shan Ling looked back and recognized the disabled man as the Taoist priest who had fought with her, and cursed Said: "Despicable..."

The old Taoist priest touched his broken leg and replied with a sneer: "Compared to you, I am too despicable. You monster, today is the day you die!"

"Master Huang...you..." Wu Yong's eyes were bloodshot, and hatred made him just want to kill.

Magistrate Huang shook his head and said with a smile: "Wu Yong, Wu Yong, if you want to blame, don't blame me. I can only blame you for having a fairy mother. If it weren't for her, I think you might be able to live a better life now and die more happily." .”

"you….."

"Huh, do you think I'm stupid? You asked me to send someone away. If I hadn't been more thoughtful and brought the Taoist priest back, I really didn't know that your mother was actually a goblin! Hahaha, really God help me, one of you and one monster have caused harm to Qishui County. If you are dealt with, you will definitely be very happy!" Magistrate Huang smiled proudly. He had wondered that day why Wu Yong would let people send the Taoist priest away directly. Fortunately On weekdays, he had some friendship with the people in the yamen. Naturally, the news came to his ears. Fortunately, he was smart and thought that there must be something ulterior. So after having the Taoist healed, he kept the Taoist here. , all this was going on secretly, Wu Yong didn't know that at that time, Wu Yong had no idea that he had placed a Taoist priest in the yamen. Thanks to this Taoist priest, he knew that Wu Yong's mother was actually a demon.

The Taoist priest looked at the mountain spirit coldly and scolded: "You are a bold evildoer who is harming the world. I will accept you even if I risk my life!"

"Kill if you want, don't talk about my wife!" Shan Ling is a bloody person. She just felt something strange nearby that day, so she took Bingyu away. Today, it was the result she wanted, but she didn't expect that she would still fall into it. If she had known it, she would have killed the Taoist priest with one palm.

County Magistrate Huang looked at the mother and son in the prison with a smile, and replied: "Don't worry, the officer will personally send you mother and son off tomorrow." After that, he laughed and left. At this time, the prison head listened to Magistrate Huang's words He ordered people to go in and tie Wu Yong's hands and feet to prevent Wu Yong from releasing the mountain spirit. The old Taoist priest watched Wu Yong being tied up before letting someone carry him away.

Suddenly, the cell was indescribably deserted. Wu Yong's face was filled with tears, and he had nowhere to express his sorrow. He looked at the mountain spirit and murmured: "Mom... these are useless children. It was the children who harmed you." "

"Yong'er, don't cry... Mom is fine." Although Shan Ling was tied more and more tightly by the talisman rope, he didn't want his son to worry and deliberately pretended to be fine.

Wu Yong listened and said with tears: "Mom, please don't comfort the child. The child knows that the mother must be in pain now. The child is incompetent and failed to serve the mother well. Instead, the mother worked hard for the child and did those unreasonable things." , the child should bear all these sins, and the mother should never be made to suffer."
