Chapter 842 - 842 Daoist Priest

842 Daoist Priest

On the eve of the new year, an Imperial Order was issued throughout the country at top speed!

The Emperor said, ” since the filial piety of the ancestors moved people, peace can bring peace to the country and the people. I’ve followed the example of my ancestors and ruled the country with filial piety. Only then can I calm the People’s hearts! I feel very comforted!

“It’s only natural for children to be filial to their parents!

“Filial piety was the foundation of cultivation, ruling the country and pacifying the world!

“However, the “law of filial piety” has been advocated for hundreds of years since the founding of the great ancestor, and I see that there are some shortcomings and unfairness in it!

“I considered it again and again and revised my decision.

“All children who were adopted, sold, abandoned, cut off ties with their biological parents had no relationship with them. In terms of “filial piety,” they could be filial to their adopted parents but not their biological parents.

“Their biological parents could not force, make trouble, or force their children to be filial to them if they had adopted, sold, abandoned, cut off ties with their children. If they violated the rules, the children could report it to the court and punish them according to the severity of the circumstances!”

..

As soon as this edict was out, it quickly covered up the most lively mood before the new year.

Some were happy, some were worried, some were excited, some were angry …

In short, there were all kinds of emotions.

However, something happened in the Lin family Village before the edict, and the appearance of the edict left everyone dumbfounded.

..

Ever since Lin yuelan had caught the black snake in the pond and brought it back to the Lin family garden, a huge rumor had spread throughout the Lin family Village!

Lin yuelan was really possessed by a demon! She was not sent back by the King of Hell as she had said.

Two days before the end of the year, a Daoist priest wearing a Daoist robe and holding a white horsetail whisk came to the Lin family Village.

As soon as he entered the Lin family Village, he shook his head and said, “Why is the demonic Qi here so heavy? ”

The villagers still respected Taoist priests, but more than that, they warned themselves not to speak nonsense.

Otherwise, he could throw his life into the abyss of hell with a single sentence. There were examples of this.

Three years ago, a Daoist priest suddenly decided the fate of a nine-year-old child.

Overnight, she had become the jinx. She had been abandoned by her family and her parents, and she had to live a miserable life of being beaten and scolded.

No one wanted that kind of life.

Therefore, the moment the Daoist priest stepped into the Lin family Village, he attracted the attention of the villagers. Following that, the villagers gathered around the Daoist priest. More and more people gathered, but they all followed behind him carefully, not daring to speak to him.

But now, they suddenly heard the Daoist priest say the word “demonic Qi.”

Someone couldn’t help but ask. This person was Liu Liujiao, the big mouth.

However, she seemed particularly flustered and afraid at this moment. She asked loudly, “Daoist priest, what do you mean by this? Do you mean demonic aura? Could it be that there’s really a monster in our village?”

The others also looked at the Daoist priest with serious expressions.

This Daoist priest had a kind face and didn’t look like a bad person or a liar.

So, what did the Taoist priest mean by this?

He held the horsetail whisk in one hand and stroked his long white beard with the other. His eyes were looking up at the sky. He did not answer Liu Liujiao directly. Instead, he mumbled, ” the black mist is shrouding us. There’s going to be a bloody disaster!”

A bloody disaster?

Liu Liujiao jumped in shock and exclaimed, “a bloody disaster? Daoist priest, tell me, who in our village is going to meet a bloody disaster? Or would the entire village be in danger?

Everyone understood the meaning behind it.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Daoist priest then turned to Liu Liujiao and said with a serious expression, ” during the new year, the sky should be filled with red light. But now, dark clouds have filled the sky above the village, and the demonic aura is soaring into the sky. There must be a demon in this village, and this demon will bring a huge disaster to the entire village. It might even cause the village to be exterminated!

Hearing the Daoist priest’s words, everyone took a few steps back in shock, their expressions full of disbelief.

They exclaimed in unison, ” a monster? How is this possible?”

The Daoist priest replied with a serious expression, ” why is it impossible? Do you think I’m lying to you? As for what benefits this poor Daoist will receive?”

Everyone was speechless.

This must be the Daoist priest’s first time in the Lin family Village, so he had no reason to lie to them, right?

However, to say that there was a demon in the village, this …

Seeing the suspicious expressions on the villagers ‘faces, the Daoist priest immediately asked, ” has there been any unusual phenomenon in your village recently? ”

Unusual phenomenon?

Everyone immediately fell silent.

“What? Is there really one?” The Daoist priest immediately asked, ” but it seems like you have something that you can’t tell me. ”

Liu Liujiao immediately said, ” Daoist priest, someone caught a really, really big snake yesterday.” she gestured to the size of the snake with her hand and then asked anxiously, ” could this snake be a demon? ”

The Daoist priest said seriously, “How did this snake appear in the Lin family Village? I need to see the snake in person to be sure that it’s the culprit behind the Lin family Village’s Black Qi! Alright, where’s that big black snake? Can you take me to see it?”

Everyone was silent!

Everyone knew that three years ago, that girl had suffered a lot for the next three years because of a Daoist priest who asked for water.

Wouldn’t she hate Daoists priest to the bone?

Under such circumstances, who would really dare to bring this Daoist priest to Lin yuelan’s house?

The Daoist priest asked curiously, “Is there any inconvenience?”

The villagers looked at each other. Liu Liujiao drew on her previous hatred and pointed in a direction. “Daoist, follow this road, and you’ll see the biggest and most beautiful house. That house is the house of the snake catcher. Daoist, you can go and take a look!”

The Daoist priest nodded.

...

Then, he took the horsetail whisk and followed Liu liujiao’s directions.

Although the people behind him were still following the Taoist priest, the distance between them had obviously widened.

Even if they arrived at the Lin family garden, Lin yuelan couldn’t possibly say that they had brought the Daoist priest over.

Soon, the group of people followed the Daoist priest’s footsteps and stopped in front of the Lin family Garden.

However, when the Daoist priest stood in front of the door and looked, his expression suddenly changed. He said in shock, ” a monster, and a great monster with profound cultivation!”

The others ‘expressions changed drastically as well. They said in shock and surprise, ” there’s really a monster? How is that possible?”

However, the Taoist priest said sternly, ” the sky above this house is filled with demonic Qi and black mist. The inside of this house is also surrounded by a demonic Qi. If it’s not a demon with profound cultivation, this phenomenon will not occur!”

As soon as the Daoist finished speaking, the gate of the Lin Family Garden was pulled open.

However, when they saw the person who opened the door, not only did the Daoist priest’s expression change, but everyone else’s expression also changed drastically!
