The world is like a prison, my body is holy

Chapter 87 Great Luck

At dawn, Xu Ergou came to look for Wang Wen as usual.

"Where did the cow come from?"

He accidentally discovered the black ox lying on the side of the tent and called out to the inside of the tent in confusion, "Brother, brother, where did you buy the ox?"

The only sound in the tent was thunderous snoring.

Xu Ergou didn't take it seriously. He circled around Hei Erniu, "tsk tsk tsk," and said, "Hiss, it's been a while since I've eaten beef..."

Hei Erniu was grinding his teeth and chewing the cud comfortably. He rolled his eyes at him and ignored him.

Xu Ergou didn't notice the disdain on the cow's face. He turned around and shouted happily, "Shitou, Shitou, come and take this cow away and slaughter it. We'll stew it for lunch!"

"You're such a fucking brother-in-law!"

Hei Erniu finally couldn't help it, and opened his mouth as if his mouth was covered with honey: "I have eaten your bran, so why do you stew it? Why don't you stew such a big one? Look at your clumsy spoon, stupid and foolish appearance..."

Xu Ergou was stunned by it.

After a while, he suddenly came to his senses and laughed angrily: "Then do you know who I am? Why do you curse me?"

Hei Erniu squinted at him, a very human expression of contempt on his face: "I don't care who this stupid bear is..."

Xu Ergou rubbed his fist: "Okay, okay, I'll let you know what the rules are today!"

Hei Erniu stretched his head and poked it into his arms: "Come on, come on, hit me on the forehead..."

"I said, are you two done yet?"

Wang Wen's hazy voice came from the tent: "What are you making so much noise so early in the morning? Can't you let me sleep?"

Xu Ergou was aggrieved: "Brother, it's not me who's causing trouble, it's really just that this stupid cow has a dirty mouth!"

Hei Erniu also felt wronged: "Master, it's not me who wants to make trouble, it's this stupid bear who wants to stew me..."

"Shut up, everyone!"

Wang Wen: "Ergou, you said the wrong thing first, so you can't blame it for scolding you. If it were you, you would also scold it, right?"

Xu Ergou: "Brother, I was wrong."

Wang Wen: "Erniu, if you don't say anything, how would he know you're a demon? Isn't it normal for him to say the wrong thing?"

Hei Erniu: "Master, I was wrong too."

Wang Wen: "Alright, family members don't need to talk too much... Erniu, this is my brother Xu Ergou, you can call him Brother Dog; Ergou, this is my mount Black Erniu, you can just call him Erniu."

He yawned loudly and said, "Let's shake hands. We will be good brothers from now on."

Xu Ergou and Hei Erniu looked at each other.

Through the tent, Wang Wen seemed to be able to see the man and the cow outside: "Why are you standing there? Are my words not working?"

Xu Ergou resigned himself to his fate and stretched out his hand, forcing a smile as he called out, "Erniu."

Hei Erniu stood up tremblingly, raised his front hoof and placed it on his hand: "Brother Dog!"

Wang Wen said lazily, "That's more like it... Ergou, has Master Ji stood up?"

Xu Ergou: "Get up, waiting for us to meet up."

Wang Wen: "Wait a moment, I have something to do and need to go look for him. By the way, do you still have the pheasants I got yesterday?"

Xu Ergou: "Also, I'll ask Shitou to stew one for you."

Wang Wen: "Okay, get some food for Erniu too. Just like a warhorse, give him a few eggs... Oh, and hurry up and get him a saddle. We're going to attack the mountain tomorrow."

Xu Ergou: "Okay, I'll arrange it."

Wang Wen: "Go ahead, tell the brothers to wait for me. I'll go out with you today."

Xu Ergou: "Hey."

He turned and left, and rustling sounds came from the tent.

After a while, the sleepy Wang Wen adjusted his armor, opened the tent and walked out yawning.

Hei Erniu quickly stood up and came up to him with a grin, shaking his head and wagging his tail.

Wang Wen glanced at the big, dog-like Black Bull and slapped him lightly in the face. "Be more careful with your words when it comes to your own people. Do you know who his uncle is? How dare you criticize him?"

Hei Erniu asked cautiously, "Who is it?"

Wang Wen: "My dad!"

Black Bull dropped his front hooves to the ground with a plop, "Master, I was wrong!"

Wang Wen: "I'm not afraid of you causing trouble, but don't bully me. Got it?"

Hei Erniu: "I understand!"

Wang Wen: "Take a rest. I'm going to go out for a while. I'll call you later..."

After saying that, he yawned and walked slowly towards Ji Liang's tent.

……

Wang Wen found Taoist Ji Liang and told him what happened last night in a few words.

After hearing this, Taoist Ji Liang suddenly realized and thought that he had finally found the real culprit.

"go!"

He stood up, pulled Wang Wen and walked out: "Let's go see our headmaster!"

"Ah?" Wang Wen woke up from his doze upon hearing this and stammered, "It's just a small matter. Do you really need to trouble Master Hun Kun?"

He didn't know why, but when he heard that he was going to meet the headmaster of Maoshan, he felt a little uneasy.

"Little things?"

Taoist Ji Liang laughed angrily: "Do you know how much noise you made last night?"

Wang Wen wondered, "What did I do last night?"

Taoist Ji Liang spoke softly and patiently, "Although I don't know what formation you destroyed last night, I do know that the commotion you caused alarmed Old Demon Wang. He forcibly deduced your identity, which triggered a divine punishment and resulted in a purple thunderbolt... Erhu, you've performed a great deed!"

"Fuck!"

Wang Wen exclaimed in surprise, feeling that his words were full of flaws. He didn't know where to begin. "Wait a moment. The old demon Wang you're talking about, isn't he Wang Ze, the leader of the White Lotus Sect?"

Ji Liang nodded as a matter of course: "Besides him, where else could there be another old demon named Wang?"

Wang Wen was stunned for a second, then suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "So, I was almost gone last night?"

It is said that a man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.

The name of Wang Ze, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, is known to everyone in the world.

In the words of his father Huang Xingde, Wang Ze is the top master that everyone in the martial arts world thinks he is, but there is no evidence to prove this inference... It's because everyone who has seen him take action has died!
What’s even more frightening is that that guy had already been one of the world’s top masters more than seventy years ago.

But even now, rumors of that old demon going on a killing spree still circulate in the martial arts world...

It can be said that most of the people's fear of the White Lotus Sect is due to the existence of this old demon Wang!
If this old vicious guy had personally come out to hunt him down, he would have had no chance of surviving last night.

"That's not the case."

Taoist Ji Liang comforted him gently, saying, "With the three masters of the three talisman sects supporting us, even that old demon Wang wouldn't dare to leave his hometown!"

Wang Wen didn't argue, but laughed dryly, "Then what about the heavenly punishment and purple thunder you mentioned? What does it have to do with me?"

Taoist Ji Liang looked at him deeply, then pondered for a moment before saying, "Do you remember that you once asked me if my Maoshan Qimen Dunjia technique could predict anything and would always work? Do you remember how I responded to you then?"

Wang Wen nodded and said, "I remember you said at the time that sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't work very well..."

Taoist Ji Liang also nodded and said, "This sentence should actually be: It works for everyone else, but it doesn't work for you."

Wang Wen's pupils trembled: "Huh?"

Before he could let his imagination run wild, Taoist Ji Liang took the initiative to explain, "You don't have to be too surprised. This phenomenon is actually not uncommon. There are many people and things in the world that cannot be calculated using Qimen Dunjia."

Wang Wen: "For example?"

Taoist Ji Liang thought for a moment and said, "For example, the lifespan of an emperor, the succession of the throne, the fortune of a dynasty, and the duration of wars are all beyond the reach of Qimen Dunjia. Furthermore, my Maoshan ancestral book records that the changes in the eras of heaven and earth, and the descent of immortals and gods to the mortal world to endure tribulations, are also beyond the reach of Qimen Dunjia... You can understand this as follows: the more people involved and the bigger the matter, the more difficult it is to calculate using Qimen Dunjia."

Having said this, he paused and added, "Or rather, it's not that Qi Men Dun Jia can't be used for divination, but the fate of ordinary people cannot bear such a great secret!"

"It's like a war. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are involved on both sides, and millions, even tens of millions, of civilians are involved. The fates of so many people are intertwined, like a raging fire boiling over oil. Who dares to predict it? How can one predict it?"

"Of course, special cases like you are rare in the world!"

"Erhu, you are a person with great luck!"

When Wang Wen heard this, his mind suddenly became clear.

"No wonder you couldn't figure out my information..."

He said in his heart.

In terms of identity, Wang Wen's appearance is indeed just that of an ordinary person, but his essence... is a Yin official!

The background of the Yin official is the underworld, and the background of the underworld is the heaven, and the background of the heaven is the Lord of Heaven.

The Heaven and Hell of the Great Zhou Dynasty were indeed gone, but it was obvious that he, a Yin official, was still recognized by the Lord of Heaven, otherwise his deeds could not be linked to his merits and virtues.

In other words, after the Heaven and the Underworld disappeared, he, the Yin official, directly skipped the two middlemen of the Underworld and the Heaven and directly clung to the golden thigh of the Lord of Heaven!

This is like the employees of a subsidiary of a state-owned enterprise. After the subsidiary and the state-owned enterprise are dissolved, they can just use their salary to get the treatment of a regular civil servant...

In this case, what is the difference between deducing his identity and directly deducing the identity of the Lord of Heaven?

This relationship is very similar to the scene when Peng Ying from the Beggar Gang went to the Qinghe Gang to ask Huang Xingde to hand over someone.

Even a weakling like Huang Laodeng managed to trick Peng Ying.

Who can a real boss like Lord Tiandao indulge?
In terms of impact...

The real Wang Erhu died long ago.

Wang Erhu's fate had already ended.

Wang Wen is a superfluous person who should not appear in this world. His every word and action affects the fate of many people.

Isn’t there a saying that a butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River in South America, occasionally flapping its wings, may cause a tornado in Texas, USA two weeks later?
Wang Wen is not a butterfly, and his actions are not as weak as butterfly wings!

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the people in Yangzhou, at least half of them were able to survive because of him, Wang Wen!
In other words, the fate of half of the people in the city is entangled with the fate of Wang Wen. To calculate his whereabouts is equivalent to weighing the weight of the fate of half of the people in the city.

With so many factors combined, it's normal that Qi Men Dun Jia can't figure out his identity. If it could figure it out, it would be abnormal...

"So to say……"

Wang Wen chuckled and said, "I did perform a great deed last night. So, it wouldn't be a problem for our Maoshan Sect to reward me with some refining materials, right?"

Taoist Ji Liang also laughed after hearing this, and said with a double meaning: "If you can really call yourself 'our Maoshan Sect', not only will you be able to get a few pieces of refining materials, you will probably be able to compete for the position of the next Maoshan Sect Master..."

Wang Wen: …
