Wandering Gods of Day and Night-Chapter 969 - 386: Dead People Returned to Life
This is the style of the world, the will of the people, and the wish power of all beings that can be used by the disciples of the Valley.
Zhou Xuan immediately said: "Other than your parents, no one deserves your kneeling, not even me. So if you see me again, whoever kneels, I’ll beat them...not for anything else, just because their bones are too soft."
Having said this, Zhou Xuan’s tone softened again, saying: "If you really want to thank me, just nod and smile when you see me in the future."
"We obey the great master’s command."
"The great master truly holds power and carries virtue, only with you does Mingjiang truly have fortune."
The common people are truly convinced by Zhou Xuan, not only by his skills but also by his character—this great master of Mingjiang, who is in the limelight, is different from those aloof masters of the past! Completely different.
"Everyone, hold your words of thanks for now. I want to ask this great Ghost Messenger of Soul Shepherd City, why did you act against the children of Mingjiang Prefecture?"
Zhou Xuan turned his head to look at the Paperman Ghost Messenger.
The Ghost Messenger smiled apologetically, saying: "Great master, as we have agreed beforehand, Soul Shepherd City allows the dead to return to life, and the living of Mingjiang Prefecture must not obstruct our Soul City’s Night Parade of Hundred Demons. This child, hugging his parents tightly, his yang energy was too strong, causing the parade to halt."
"Having halted, you could have just driven him away, why harm his life?"
Zhou Xuan stomped the ground with one foot, borrowing the momentum of feng shui, conjured a breeze that swept "Little Brother" into his arms, saying: "The child is also pitiful, having lost both parents. Upon seeing their souls again, it’s understandable he couldn’t control his emotions. Great Ghost Messenger, I’ll take the child away, continue your parade..."
"Since the great master has said so, how can I, a mere governor, refute? As the saying goes, a good person goes all the way, escorting the Buddha to the west, I will add one more gift to apologize for disturbing the great master."
The Ghost Messenger, saying this, swung the Water and Fire Stick, targeting four dead people around, each hit sent them among the crowd, then bowed to Zhou Xuan with the stick in hand, saying: "Great master, the resurrection of the dead in Mingjiang Prefecture must wait until the parade ends and the Ghost Gate closes—but these four people, I, a small Ghost Messenger, take the liberty to allow them to return to life first." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Those four people sent out by the Water and Fire Stick were the papermen Zhou Xuan prepared in advance—the parents of Little Brother and his neighbors.
"Shall I say thank you?" Zhou Xuan frowned, asking.
"Thanks are not necessary, great master, pardon the disturbance."
The Paperman Ghost Messenger then swung the Water and Fire Stick, urging the parade forward: "Ghosts on the road, living people avoid!"
The Night Parade of Hundred Demons continued, but those four "revived" people caused a sensation among the surrounding townsfolk.
Especially when they saw the parents embracing Little Brother, crying "Little Brother" with heart-wrenching cries, the townsfolk were filled with mixed emotions.
They were elated for the reunion of family, even if it happened to others; they were sincerely happy;
At the same time, they felt at ease,
Indeed, when the resurrection of the dead was plainly displayed before them, they believed to their very core that all the dead would be revived.
This was also Zhou Xuan’s ultimate goal for today’s theatrical display.
Apart from the joy and peace of mind, a small number of people felt envious—they were envious of why it was Little Brother’s family revived first, and not theirs.
Among those envious, ninety percent were able to suppress their envy, although emotions arose in their hearts, they dared not say more.
But there was the ten percent who couldn’t suppress it, among them, a few even began questioning Zhou Xuan.
"Great master, I have something to say."
"Speak." Zhou Xuan said.
"We observed the rules, did not overstep boundaries, so our family did not return to life. That child broke the rules, yet his family was allowed to return to life early, this is unjust."
"Indeed, not only did his family return to life, but his neighbors did too, one person achieves enlightenment and even the whole household follows."
In this scene within Mingjiang Prefecture, there aren’t many who dare to question Zhou Xuan on the spot, which made those few questioning voices appear particularly loud and clamorous.
"Great master, we demand fairness!"
"Yes, fairness is what we want."
The six or seven townsfolk burning with jealousy even stood together, wanting to "reason" with Zhou Xuan...
