Chapter 553 Sir, Please Stay (15)
"Sir, several women from the second house fainted, more than a dozen guards and servants died, and two concubines died. The children are all fine, but Concubine Mei had a miscarriage due to heavy bleeding. The doctor is still trying to save her life."
"You should also have a good rest." Deng Wenjie said to the mother-in-law.
The people from the first house gathered in front of the fire in silence, trying to ease the pain from what had just happened. Later, Mrs. Deng and Deng Wenjie went to comfort the second house...
It was dawn, but the government officials had not yet arrived. Aunt Cui pointed at the broken stone and said, "Sir, there are words on it."
Deng Wenjie looked over and saw three big words "Evil-Eradication Stone" written on it. Looking at the pile of bandit corpses on the ground, he knelt down and bowed.
"Thank you gods for protecting our lives. Deng will definitely build a temple to worship the gods."
Deng Wenjie and other female relatives also knelt down, and people from the second house also gathered here. Some of them had incense and paper and offered sacrifices directly on the spot.
"Sister Xi, why don't we put a Buddha statue inside so that we can finish the show."
Gu Yuxi, who was lying on the chaise longue and eating grapes, said with a smile: "Xiao Ke, you are really becoming more and more humane. I'll make one for them and see."
After saying that, Gu Yuxi stood up, picked up the white spirit stone that had absorbed all the spiritual energy, and carved a Buddha statue according to the template given by Xiao Ke.
"Sister Xi, the government officials still have about ten miles to go before they arrive. Those who are going to suppress the bandits have arrived first."
"It's okay, it will be done when the official comes." Gu Yuxi continued to carve.
Gu Yuxi added some thin black mud to the jade Buddha statue and put a spell for accumulating merit inside it to make it more effective in the future.
After making the statue about four times larger, Gu Yuxi buried it underground in the stone, but part of it was embedded in the stone.
"Sister Xi, this story of eliminating evil is over."
"I'm going to lie down for a while. I haven't had a good sleep in a while. Remind me when the time comes."
"no problem."
The government officials arrived quickly, but when they saw the bandit leader who had committed all kinds of evil in this place lying on the ground, and then looked at the evil-eliminating stone, they felt that the world had become magical.
Now Deng Neng is the permanent historian of the Ministry of Works, so they still have to give him this face. After all, this is a good thing for them.
"Can you tell me more about what happened last night?"
"Sir, we were attacked by bandits last night. At first, the bandit leader came to kill us, but Xiaoxi suddenly opened his eyes, picked up a wooden stick and started fighting with the other party..."
"This one was when the horse suddenly lost control and the man was knocked onto the rock. The maids and guards behind him took the opportunity to finish him off."
"This one was hit and crushed to death by the young master's fast carriage."
"Is there something wrong with this maid?"
Deng Moci quickly retorted: "Xiao Xi has no problem!"
Aunt Cui: "Last night, these four people killed more than 20 bandits. Normally, this maid and the servant boy would not have such ability. It must be the evil-eliminating stone that gave them the power."
People in the government thought that this world was mysterious. They didn't believe that four people could beat so many bandits. After all, the imperial court had sent troops to suppress them, but they had suffered repeated defeats, which boosted the morale of the bandits.
A man in official uniform touched the words "eliminate evil" and Deng Wenjie said, "Sir, I want to move the stone and build a temple to worship the spirit inside the stone."
"Whether it is still another matter, perhaps with the guidance of an expert, you guys can break these broken stones apart."
"No, this is..."
"I will make my own judgment."
The group of people began to move away the large rocks that had been broken into pieces. Suddenly, the head of a Buddha statue appeared in front of them, scaring some people so much that they immediately knelt down.
“May Buddha bless you!”
The official also knelt down. He did not expect that there was something hidden inside, so he began to burn incense and worship Buddha.
"It was me who was reckless. I will definitely make good arrangements for the gods to go."
Later, Deng Wenjie and his group had to leave, and after the second house hastily buried the person, they had to go with them.
Because there were still people unconscious, they also had to go to a safe place, fearing that the bandits would come back again.
"Sir, those four people are still not awake. Will this cause any problems?"
"Let's go to the next place and find a doctor to check again. Maybe he just fainted due to shock."
Because both the men and the horses were tired, the group moved slowly, but the reputation of the evil-eliminating Buddha statue began to spread.
Two days later, the three men of Dong Feng began to wake up. Seeing that Gu Yuxi was still unconscious, the people in the big room occasionally checked his breath and found that he was still breathing.
"Xiaoxi, wake up and play with me!"
"Don't touch her. What if she continues to faint? Maybe it's time for her to wake up."
"Xiao Xi and everyone else are blessed by the gods. She will be safe and sound, and free from any disasters."
That night, Gu Yuxi opened his eyes with difficulty to see where the Deng family had gone, but he didn't expect that Aunt Cui would be frightened in the middle of the night when she saw someone suddenly get up from the bed.
"Huh! Xiaoxi, you scared me to death."
"Aunt Cui, I'm so sleepy."
Seeing that the person was awake, Aunt Cui was happy. She hugged the person and said, "Go back to sleep. Everything will be fine."
At daybreak, Gu Yuxi felt much more energetic. He sat outside the carriage and listened to Aunt Cui, who was driving the carriage, telling the story of that night.
"Madame Cui, I have no impression at all."
"You know what? Dongfeng and the others also said they had no memory of it. They said the gods bless them all. It's a pity that the right side of the young master's face..." Aunt Cui knew that this was a taboo, so she stopped talking and changed the subject. "I won't say more. You scared us that night. Fortunately, you're fine."
Seeing a striking scar on the right side of Deng Wenjie's face, Gu Yuxi didn't expect that he would be disfigured like this. It was a pity for his face that was so hateful to both humans and gods.
[Sister Xi, if the other party is the target of the mission, then you must...]
[Perhaps the target of the mission is not someone from the Deng Mansion, so the satisfaction level is only 10. Perhaps he is just a passerby, who has nothing to do with Deng Wenjie. If it is him, then the scar can be removed later. Wouldn’t it be easier to get points this way?]
[Yeah, could it be Li Haozheng? He looks quite similar to the key words in the list.]
[Didn’t you also say that there were seven or eight people who met the key words?]
[It’s so hard for me, now we just have to wait for the key words.]
When they arrived at the market, a group of people started to buy some things. Deng Moci at the wonton stall said, "Xiao Xi, come sit with me for a while."
"Miss, it's not a good idea to stay here. I'll just stay with Aunt Cui and the others."
"Ci Ci, don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping."
"Oh."
Deng Moci looked at the maid who had already woken up. No one was playing with her.
Mrs. Deng saw all of this. When her daughter arrived in the capital, she had to have more than one maid, otherwise she would be laughed at by those people.
Suddenly, she started to feel nauseous again, and Mingzhu patted her back.
"nothing."
"Ma'am, you have been feeling unwell lately. Why don't you go see a doctor?"
Aunt Cui: "Madam had these symptoms before...are you pregnant?"
The others also reacted, and Aunt Cui's words woke them up.
