Chapter 59: Forty-nine Days of Thunder
After hearing Li Daoxuan's words, many people talked about it.
"It's ridiculous. He is obviously greedy by nature. How can we give him more gold and silver? Wouldn't that just indulge his greed?"
"I find it interesting. If I give him a mountain of gold and silver but he can't take it away, wouldn't it be more tormenting?"
"Or crush him to death with mountains of gold and silver?"
There were many smart people present. After hearing Li Daoxuan's words, they seemed to be thinking about something, as if a door had been opened.
The lady in green pointed with her jade finger, and the ground in the mirror shook violently, rising continuously to form two high mountains.
One mountain was shining with golden light, and the other mountain was shining with silver light, and there really were mountains of gold and silver!
When the official saw the two mountains of gold and silver that suddenly appeared, his eyes widened, and it seemed that even the severe pain in his body was relieved.
Endless greed emerged in his heart, making his eyes burn.
"Mine, all mine!"
The lady in green looked at Li Daoxuan.
"My lady, since he wants it, then give it to him, but we have to find a different way."
Li Daoxuan whispered a few words into Fairy Que's ear. Fairy Que's eyes lit up and she looked at Li Daoxuan with extreme vigilance.
It's like looking at a big bad guy with a lot of evil intentions.
"Que'er, do as he says."
Lady in green nodded.
The Fairy Bird immediately turned into a skylark and flew out of the palace. After a while, her figure appeared in the mirror.
She brought the karmic fire from the underworld and placed it on the mountains of gold and silver.
Under the baking of the wicked fire, the two mountains slowly melted, flowing out boiling gold and silver juice.
Under the order of Fairy Que, the ghost messengers held down the official's head, pried open his mouth, inserted an iron funnel, and began to pour melted gold and silver juice into it.
The cooked juice was so scalding hot that it instantly burned through the official's throat and cooked his internal organs. Gold and silver liquid burst from under his skin and mixed with the blood. The scene was disastrous to watch.
The official could not scream due to the funnel in his mouth, but his pupils were dilated and he was in extreme pain. All his greed was gone at once.
And because he is a soul and is in the Qingming Realm where the yin energy is extremely heavy, he will not dissipate and will recover quickly.
So a new cycle begins.
…
At the banquet, Li Daoxuan said to the lady in green: "Although this method may not necessarily make him truly repent, it can make him fear gold and silver. Even if he is reincarnated, he will subconsciously stay away from gold, silver and copper ."
"Also, Your Majesty can also find someone to verify how much money he has embezzled, and then burn the money into copper liquid and force him to drink it. The more he embezzles, the more copper liquid he will drink. This can be regarded as the law of nature, retribution."
This method was not original to Li Daoxuan, but came from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio. When faced with a corrupt official who embezzled three million taels of silver, the King of Hell used this method, with great effect.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the corrupt official in the mirror saw the gold and silver again, he was so scared that he started vomiting, his eyes full of disgust and resistance.
The Qingyi Lady waved her hand and put away the mirror, and then asked in front of everyone: "Li Daoxuan, are you willing to become a human walker in my Qingming Realm?"
After these words were spoken, many people either felt regretful or looked at Li Daoxuan with envy.
I just regret that I didn’t come up with such a clever method and missed such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
That young Taoist priest is already Zhang Qianyang's apprentice, and now he is associated with the Green-robed Lady, with two great gods at his back. This opportunity... is really enviable!
“Ahem!”
Li Daoxuan coughed awkwardly and said, "Um, Madam...can I refuse?"
In an instant, the room was silent.
The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became a little strange. No one spoke, and it seemed as if one could hear a pin drop.
When Que'er, who had already returned to the hall, heard this, he quickly winked at Li Daoxuan.
But Li Daoxuan could only pretend not to see it.
He really didn't want to be the Qingming Envoy. Working for others in his previous life was tiring enough. In this life, he just wanted to live freely and happily!
If it weren't for the Green-Clothed Lady's coercion just now, he wouldn't have stood up and spoken and proposed that method.
Lady in green was a little dazed. She really had never thought that Li Daoxuan would reject her.
This little Taoist priest gave her too many surprises tonight.
Even a Yangshen cultivator would be tempted by those three treasures, so how could he be so calm?
No wonder he was able to achieve a state of meditation.
The lady in green was silent and ponderous, her face calm and expressionless, showing no trace of sadness or joy.
A gleam of light flashed in the eyes of the Meiling Mountain God. He felt that his chance had come. This kid was bewildered and actually rejected such a great opportunity. It would definitely make the Queen unhappy!
At this moment, as long as he takes action to help the empress regain her face, the empress might be happy and the position of Qingming Envoy would fall on his head.
"Humph, you are so arrogant, young man. Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!"
After saying this, his body grew bigger and bigger, bursting through his shirt, revealing his sturdy muscles made of rock. He looked like a walking mountain giant, full of toughness.
A ruthless look flashed in Li Daoxuan's eyes, and he held ten Five Thunder Talismans in his hands at the same time, ready to use them all in one breath!
Fairy Que was anxious and was about to help, but was stopped by Lady Qingyi.
“My queen…”
Fairy Que was very confused. Could it be that the Queen was really angry?
Lady in green just smiled faintly, shook her head and didn't explain.
boom!
The Meiling Mountain God swung his huge arms and smashed towards Li Daoxuan with a force like a landslide, causing a gust of wind!
Li Daoxuan's eyes were determined. He had already formed the Heavenly Thunder Seal and began to recite the mantra silently.
Countless lightning bolts were brewing in the sky above the Qingming Realm. The sky seemed to have turned into a lake of thunder. The destructive yang energy continued to brew, causing many ghost officials in the Qingming Realm to tremble in fear.
Boom!
The wine bottles at the banquet exploded one after another.
A dazzling dark green lightning struck down, like a roaring green dragon, full of the aura of destruction and tyranny. The terrifying power of thunder made everyone tremble with fear.
The pupils of the Meiling Mountain God widened, as if he had seen something incredible.
boom!
Everyone only saw a white screen before their eyes, as if they had become blind. The sky and earth were filled with loud thunder and dazzling flashes of lightning.
At this moment, even the strong ones in the Yin Shen realm felt their hair stand on end and their magic eyes became ineffective.
"How is it possible that the little Taoist priest could attract such terrible thunder?"
"This... this is the Forty-Nine Heavenly Thunder. His... his thunder technique is so profound?"
"No wonder he can sit at the head of the group. Under the 49th Heavenly Thunder, even if we are at the Yin God Realm, our souls will be shattered!"
Wait until the lightning fades away.
Everyone's pupils were shocked to see that the once arrogant Meiling Mountain God was now completely charred, with half of his body almost split into pieces!
The Meiling Mountain God, who is in the late Yin Shen stage, cannot be defeated by a person in the early stage of Bigu even if he has left the Meiling territory and his magic power has declined!
Li Daoxuan was even more confused.
Because he was still holding the ten Five Thunder Talismans in his hands, the thunder had already struck before he could finish reciting the spell!
What is this... Forty-nine Days of Thunder, who brought this about?
A figure floated down, stepped on the head of the Meiling Mountain God with his stinky feet, and spat out a mouthful of phlegm.
"Hey, Mei Lao Er, I haven't spanked you for decades, are you itching for a beating again?"
"Master Dao, my hearing is not very good. Who did you just say you were going to teach my disciple a lesson for?"
