Chapter 758 The Supernatural World (6)
"Auntie, I have no home. I was just passing by when I saw a funeral being held here, so I came in to mooch a meal," Wangyou said helplessly.
"Are you afraid your family will scold you? Don't worry, I'll go and explain to you."
"Auntie, I'm telling the truth. I'm an orphan, with no father, no mother, and no relatives." Wangyou sighed helplessly. These days, being too good-looking can be a burden!
The old woman didn't quite believe it. The little girl's expression was very calm when she said she had no father, mother, or relatives. Usually, a child that age would be disappointed or sad.
It's no wonder the old woman didn't believe it, given how calm Wangyou's expression was.
"Child, although it's not good for you to come to the feast alone, you can't say that you have no parents or relatives," the old woman said earnestly.
"Auntie, I'm telling the truth, why don't you believe me? I'm a Celestial Master. Of the five deficiencies and three lacks, I lack family ties. If you don't believe me, I'll draw a talisman to cure all your ailments." Before the old woman could speak, Wangyou raised her hand, drew a talisman, and injected it into her body.
The old woman instantly felt her back pain and leg soreness disappear, and she felt incredibly energetic. Only then did she believe it. After a long while, the old woman was stunned. "You're a Celestial Master? Not a Mystic Master?"
“Yes, I am a Celestial Master,” Wangyou said proudly.
"Good heavens, this old woman never imagined that she would see a Celestial Master alive in her lifetime." The old woman had a dreamy expression on her face.
The other people at the table noticed that the old woman's complexion had visibly become rosy, and her white hair had turned black again. At that moment, she looked at Wangyou with great longing in her eyes.
"Little Celestial Master, this braised duck is delicious, you should try it!"
"Yes, yes, and this fish soup is exceptionally delicious. You should try it."
Suddenly, the ten people eating at the banquet became exceptionally diligent, and even the old lady who started the meal was squeezed out.
"Can you let me have a peaceful meal? If there's anything, we can talk about it after I finish eating," Wangyou said earnestly.
"That's right, the young girl hasn't eaten much, so please don't disturb her," the older woman said quickly after squeezing in.
Seeing this, the others, fearing to anger Wangyou, restrained themselves. These days, you can find another Xuan Master if you offend one, but if you offend a Celestial Master, your life is over.
Wangyou and An started eating in peace and quiet. Although this was a banquet, the portions were generous and the food was very clean, which showed that the host was a kind-hearted person.
“Dad, that girl looks kind of familiar,” Zhang Dani, from across the table, nudged her husband.
When the old man looked up, he saw the girl with a red mole between her eyebrows in the crowd. She looked just like the little girl they had abandoned by the roadside, but that was in the middle of nowhere. Could this girl have survived?
The couple exchanged a glance and immediately got up to come over, but were stopped by the guests around Wangyou and were forced to overhear the whole story.
Then we saw the old woman who had changed so much. This girl was actually a Celestial Master. A Celestial Master is a higher level than a Mystic Master. If this girl had any ability, the Shi family wouldn't have bothered with her.
"It shouldn't be that girl. Although there are few people in the world with red birthmarks, they do exist. As for that girl, she's probably already dead in the mouths of demons and wild beasts," Old Man Shi said after looking for a long time.
Meanwhile, the host family arrived. A Taoist master had actually come to their ancestor's funeral. What a grand gesture! They had to treat him well, otherwise, offending a Taoist master could lead to the destruction of their family.
After finishing half the meal, Wangyou patted her belly contentedly. "I'm full. Although the taste of your meal was just average, it was very hearty. Thank you!"
"As long as the little Taoist priest is happy with his meal."
"As payment for this meal, I'll give you two choices: either I'll draw a peace charm for each person in your family, or I can send your grandmother to the underworld to skip the queue," Wangyou said with a smile.
To be honest, the choice to forget worries is full of pranks and is just a test of human nature.
After discussing it for a long time, the person who had spoken earlier finally said, "I would like to trouble you, Little Celestial Master, to send my mother to be reincarnated as soon as possible."
"Once you've made a choice, you can't change it."
“I won’t change it. No matter what, we can overcome any difficulties as a family. But my mother can only be reincarnated once, and the underworld is not easy to approach now. I’ll have to trouble you, Little Celestial Master.” The man bowed deeply.
"They are indeed filial. Then I will grant your request!" Wangyou raised her hand and summoned the Gates of Hell, where the Black Impermanence appeared from last time.
"Please, let this old lady be reborn into a better life. I've examined her; she hasn't done anything evil in her life. On the contrary, she suffered a lot when she was young. Let her have a better life in her next life!"
"Yes, sir." Black Impermanence nodded and agreed.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, you should go now."
Helpless, Black Impermanence shook his head and disappeared. "This lord is very skilled at using and discarding things after use."
"Alright, it's resolved. I'll be going now."
"Little Celestial Master, wait a moment, this is the payment."
"No need, I've already received the reward. Doing good deeds will surely bring rewards, but remember to keep your eyes open when doing good and don't be blind."
"We will follow the teachings of the young Celestial Master. Young Celestial Master, could you please tell us your name so that we can set up a longevity tablet for you?"
"I am Wangyou, please don't put up a memorial tablet, I hate trouble the most," Wangyou said, waving her little hand.
“The little Taoist master is right, we’ve got it.”
"She's also called Wangyou. Her appearance might be a coincidence, but surely her name isn't too!" Old Mrs. Shi exclaimed in surprise.
This must be that girl. She's a Taoist priest, so making money would be a piece of cake for her. No, I have to take this child back home.
“You’re still in your post, what are you doing here? Your mother has been looking for you everywhere,” said Granny Zhang Dani immediately.
"Since you've decided to abandon me, then the karmic ties between us are severed. You are not my mother, and I am not your daughter. Old lady, don't try to claim kinship just because you see benefits; your behavior is too ugly." Wangyou said expressionlessly to the man.
“What do you mean lost? You’re our own flesh and blood, how could we bear to lose you? It’s all because you’re too playful that you got lost. Your father and I have been looking for you for so long,” Zhang Dani said, forcing a smile.
"I am a celestial master, lying will get me struck by lightning." As Wangyou's words fell awkwardly, several bolts of lightning struck right at the feet of the couple.
“You gave birth to me, but you did not raise me for a single day. However, I have already repaid the kindness of giving birth to me and the kindness of raising me. You were not safe on your way home and encountered a water ghost. It was I who protected and saved you. All karma has been severed.”
As for the Shi family in the capital, they raised me for five years, and I'll give them five years of wealth and honor in return. So, don't try to control me just because you're my family. I may be young, but I'm not stupid!
Listening to the conversation between Wangyou and the Shi couple, the villagers finally understood what was going on. It turned out that the child wasn't unwilling to come back, but had been abandoned by the couple on the way.
