Chapter 96: Finding Evidence to Prove Innocence
My cousin was right. When I first followed him, I didn’t dare to kill a pig. I was scared when I saw the blood flowing from the pig.
I smiled bitterly and said, "But over the years, I have learned some skills from you, my cousin."
"What's the big deal? You're my nephew. If I don't teach you all my skills, who should I teach them to ? Oh, I also know some Taoist magic. If you're willing, I can teach you that."
My cousin smiled at me, but after he finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang in my ear: "Traitor, you dare to teach my Taoist skills to others without my order. Do you want me to punish you according to the sect rules?"
When my uncle heard this, he stood up immediately.
"Master, why are you here? Without your permission, I would not dare to pass on your Taoist skills to others." After standing up, my uncle kept flattering me.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but be speechless about my cousin's behavior.
But I've gotten used to it. My cousin has almost always had this attitude towards Taoist Master Yang.
I glanced at Taoist Yang, but didn't stand up.
Taoist Priest Yang ignored me and sat down. My cousin was still flattering him and said, "Master, please sit down first. I will prepare a dish of pork head for you. Please wait."
After my cousin finished speaking, he happily went to the kitchen.
Taoist Priest Yang didn't hesitate to pick up the chopsticks and started eating.
While eating, Taoist Yang didn't even look at me, but said: "Chen Yang, do you hate me especially now?"
"I don't hate him in particular, but I hate him a little."
Taoist Priest Yang finally looked at me. He stared at me and said, "Chen Yang, I now realize that you are a little bit ungrateful."
I:"……"
I'm not a fool, so I naturally understood that what Taoist Priest Yang said was an insult to me.
There is a saying that goes, "A dog bites Lu Dongbin because he doesn't know a good person's heart."
I was too lazy to say anything more to him, so I put down my chopsticks and prepared to go to bed.
But just as I stood up, Taoist Yang's voice suddenly rang out, "Chen Yang, please stay. I have something else to say to you."
"explain."
"Please sit down first and listen to what I have to say slowly."
Taoist Priest Yang had a faint smile on his face, but when I looked at his smile, I always felt that he had no good intentions.
After about ten minutes, my uncle came out with the pig's head.
"Master, please try my cooking and see if it has improved."
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
Taoist Priest Yang had a smile on his face and ate meat without any hesitation. I even felt that he was just a fake Taoist Priest.
I was waiting for him to speak, but Taoist Yang was really slow, very, very slow.
When I ran out of patience, Taoist Yang said slowly, "Chen Yang, you have to be patient in everything. How come you don't have any patience at all? I will give you a great opportunity this time."
"What opportunity?"
My cousin and I asked the question almost at the same time.
Taoist Priest Yang was not ambiguous and said to my cousin directly and bluntly: "This opportunity has nothing to do with you."
The cousin smiled and said, "I know, Master. As long as this opportunity is related to my nephew, I will be happy."
The uncle picked up the best pork head meat with chopsticks and said with a flattering smile, "Master, I have always thought that my nephew is very smart and likable. It is definitely right for you to give him the opportunity."
"Yeah?"
Taoist Priest Yang spoke with great interest.
My cousin keeps praising me now, and it feels like I am just bragging about my own products.
He praised me to the sky, but now I don’t believe what Taoist Priest Yang said. I always feel that Taoist Priest Yang might cheat me.
"Master, of course, Xiaoyang, please say a few words quickly."
I glanced at Taoist Yang and said, "Taoist Yang, you said that your Taoist magic is powerful, right?"
"It's OK. My Taoist skills are OK. It's not difficult to deal with ordinary evil spirits."
"Well, I just happen to have something I want to ask you for help with, so please don't refuse."
I don't actually have any respect for Taoist Priest Yang. I always feel that he looks young and does things in a somewhat unreliable way.
The most important thing is him. He has cheated me several times, and this is what worries me the most.
"Master Yang, my uncle's body disappeared before. I want you to help me find his body."
My words immediately resonated with my uncle, and he quickly said, "That's right, Master, my eldest cousin's body is missing. I suspect someone stole my eldest cousin's body. This matter still needs Master to come forward to solve it."
Taoist Priest Yang smiled faintly and said, "Okay, okay, I can help with this matter, but I have to wait until you accept this great opportunity from me."
"What is the chance that can still take you?"
I asked straight to the point.
"Wait, Chen Yang, you should deal with the matter of the underworld first."
Taoist Priest Yang took a few bites of the pork head, then put down his chopsticks and walked out. I looked at Taoist Priest Yang's back, feeling dazed and absent-minded, but I didn't call out to him.
My cousin reacted quickly and followed Taoist Yang out, accompanying him all the way to the door.
When he came back, he said to me excitedly: "Xiaoyang, you are lucky. My master actually said that he would give you an opportunity. This is a great thing."
There was excitement in my cousin's voice.
I didn't say much, just nodded, and went back to the house. My phone was turned on again. I looked at the time and it was already past three in the morning. I lay down on the bed, wanting to sleep, but I tossed and turned and found that I couldn't fall asleep.
In the end, I simply didn't sleep anymore.
I sat on the bed, waiting for dawn. When the first ray of sunlight shone in from outside, I felt a little blinded, and I subconsciously blocked it with my hand.
After staying in the dim environment of the underworld for a long time, it is really a bit difficult to get used to the life in the world of the living.
Only after I put my hand down did I feel a warm feeling.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
I heard the sound of "bang bang bang". I looked at the time and walked to the door. I guessed that my uncle was not asleep yet.
When I opened the door, I saw Fatty Wang and Fang Nianci standing at the door.
The two men looked a little pale, but even so, Fang Nianci's beauty was not obscured and she still looked bright and charming.
What we have to do now is to expose the lies told by Aunt Fang Nianzhi's family. As long as we can prove that they are lying, my case can be overturned and Fang Nianzhi's personal innocence can be proved.
