C17 (2/2)

As Samit's English and the original intention of the story weren't the same, I reorganized what happened that year, but the original intent didn't change.

In the old society, the funeral industry was quite prosperous because of the influence of feudal superstition. At that time, there were three evil-doers in the circle of funeral and interment, called the ”Three Devils”, the ”Ghost Spirit, the Ghost Spirit, the Ghost Spirit”.

Ghost spirits only relied on stealing tombs to dig tombs. Ghost spirits stole corpses to marry other people. Ghost spirits wore yellow gowns to disguise themselves as Taoists to trick people.

Forget about the other two, just speak of the ”Ghost Spirit Dao”.

It was not entirely accurate to say that the Ghost Spirit Society was pretending to be a Taoist, because they did have some ability, and this kind of people relied on other people's funeral to do something, causing strange things to happen to this family frequently, either their family members were infected, or the dead people came back to do something, and then the Ghost Spirit Society would settle the matter for you, and you could get good fees, and then you could extort and extort and mess around the Jianghu.

At that time, in the back mountains, in the village, there lived the Ghost Spirit Dao. His surname was Wang, and everyone called him ”Taoist Wang.” At that time, no one knew that he had been lacking in virtue and had always had a high reputation.

This incident happened all over Taoist Wang.

That day, he received guests at home. After finishing his business, he left the guests to treat them to a meal.

Taoist Wang's son went to cook dumplings and the two chatted.

Just as they were chatting happily, his son ran into the restaurant in a flurry. The dumplings in the pot had disappeared and turned into stone eggs.

Taoist Wang was puzzled, how could a good dumpling become a stone? So the two got up and went to the kitchen to have a look.

When he lifted the lid of the pot, sure enough, a pot of pebble-shaped stone eggs was being cooked in the pot with a sound of ”Gu Gu Gu Gu”.

Taoist Wang took the wok out from the stove and sealed the fire. He then opened the rice jar and the surface pocket respectively and looked around. After he said that, he understood what was going on.

The guest was a little confused. He thought that Taoist Wang invited him to dinner was just to be polite, but he really did stay, as Taoist Wang had no choice but to act out a play called ”Dumplings become rocks”. Since he did not want to treat him to it, he found an excuse.

Taoist Wang seemed to be able to see through his thoughts. He pulled him up and left, saying that today's meal was set, he would definitely not lie to you.

Although the guests were confused, they still followed him to the only restaurant in the village to eat.

Taoist Wang might look like someone who did wicked things, but he was generous and ordered a table of food. There were no outsiders around, he just threw up his cheeks and started eating.

In the end, when he was almost done eating, Taoist Wang spoke. He said that my son did not lie, and the dumplings in the pot did indeed turn into stones.

The customer wondered, was the dumpling stolen? How poor must this place be? Why would they even steal dumplings?

Taoist Wang said it wasn't stolen by humans, but by a guy called 'Maoju Spirit'.

The customer was a little surprised. He had never heard of 'Maoju Spirit' before, so he was rather curious and wanted him to quickly say what was the matter.
