Chapter 126 Human Bones as a Medicinal Ingredient, The Wrath of the King of Hell

When Renbao passed by the Prince Qing's residence, he sensed a familiar aura.

She climbed up the wall.

"Mother, how dare that fickle woman Cui Yingying get married before me!" Prince Qing's face contorted with rage, his tone filled with extreme resentment.

In his heart, even if Cui Yingying was divorced by him, she was still his possession.

He couldn't accept that she was marrying someone else so soon.

"Alright, aren't you also going to marry a beautiful wife?" The Empress Dowager rubbed her temples, quite displeased with his behavior. "Those who achieve great things should not be bound by matters of men and women. She is just a woman."

Renbao only half understood. She stroked Honghong's smooth fur and asked in her childish voice, "Honghong, did you understand?"

"The person he wants to marry will be helpful to him," Honghong said.

Renbao became even more curious: Who would he marry?

"Your Majesty, please have some tea." Qin Zhenzhen carried a pot of tea to the Empress Dowager's side, respectfully poured her some tea, and then gave Prince Qing a slight smile.

The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with her; she was well-educated, reasonable, and intelligent.

Prince Qing initially thought she was beautiful, but after getting to know her, he found Qin Zhenzhen to be beautiful, but extremely boring.

Like most noble ladies from prominent families in the capital, she followed the rules and always spoke of prioritizing interests and the greater good.

He preferred Cui Yingying's lively and fiery personality.

He regretted it a little.

"Sister Qin!" Renbao covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes wide. "It's her who's going to marry Prince Qing!"

Her little head shook.

I really don't understand.

"Little Yama, they must be up to no good," Honghong said disdainfully.

"Who goes there!"

Hearing the sound from the wall, the guards of Prince Qing's mansion shouted sternly.

We've been discovered!

Renbao embraced the little fox and entered the underworld.

I'm off!

The faces of the people in the main hall darkened.

Qin Zhenzhen looked at Xia He, who understood and immediately went out to check, returning quickly.

"Miss, it's a stray cat," Xia He said.

Prince Qing, completely oblivious to any guile, lay back on the chaise lounge, looking utterly impatient: "Stop being so paranoid. My residence is heavily guarded; not even a mosquito can get in!"

Qin Zhenzhen remained calm upon hearing this and gently agreed.

"This is pointless..." Prince Qing felt like he had punched cotton. He pursed his lips, turned his body to the side, and closed his eyes.

The Empress Dowager was furious. She beckoned to Qin Zhenzhen with affection and said, "Zhenzhen, come here to me."

"Your Majesty." Qin Zhenzhen's expression remained unchanged, seemingly oblivious to Prince Qing's displeasure. She stepped forward and sat obediently beside the Empress Dowager.

"The fifth day is an auspicious day. How about we set the wedding date on that day?" The Empress Dowager looked at Qin Zhenzhen, showing her sincerity. "Once the wedding day is over, you can make your mark in the capital and establish your Qin family business. I will support you in everything."

That's exactly what I was waiting for.

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Qin Zhenzhen's eyes, and she said softly, "I will do as Your Majesty wishes."

"Good child." The Empress Dowager patted her hand.

laugh!

Prince Qing rolled his eyes, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He felt that Qin Zhenzhen had not married him at all, but rather his mother.

"Miss, that Prince Qing is so unreliable. If he weren't born into the royal family, how could he be worthy of you?" Xia He couldn't help but complain after following Qin Zhenzhen into the bedroom.

"Be careful what you say." Qin Zhenzhen sat in front of the chessboard, holding a black piece. "Being born into a good family is also a skill."

Seeing that she didn't care about Prince Qing's behavior at all, Xia He sighed and said with some worry, "If the Little Celestial Master knew that you married Prince Qing..."

Qin Zhenzhen paused, "So what? No matter how powerful the little celestial master is, she's only three years old. Besides, she saved my grandfather, so I'll give her some money and call it even."

Xia He stared blankly at Qin Zhenzhen, a chill running down her spine.

That being said, but...

Since arriving in the capital, she felt that her mistress was becoming more and more of a stranger.

……

Shanggan Village.

"Liar! He really is a liar!"

"What should we do now?"

Looking at the empty house, everyone's hearts sank, and they all looked at Liu Shang, clearly regarding her as their pillar of support.

Liu Shang pursed her lips.

She looked towards the capital, placing all her hopes on Renbao.

The next moment, Renbao stepped out of the underworld.

Everyone was shocked.

Little Yama!

"Greetings, Little Yama!"

Someone shouted loudly, and the previously dejected and gloomy atmosphere was swept away.

The crowd knelt and worshipped Renbao with devout eyes.

Renbao's little eyes flashed with confusion as she looked at Liu Shang: "Sister Yishang, what happened to them?"

Why is he suddenly being so enthusiastic towards her? It feels strange.

"They've seen how powerful Renbao is, and they need your help. That's all," Liu Shang said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Renbao immediately puffed out his chest with a touch of pride.

She's the best.

"Little Yama, Doctor Qiu... no, what exactly is the medicine that swindler Qiu prescribed? Why can it save people temporarily, but they die again a year later?"

"The bolder one asked."

Renbao circled around Old Qiu's house, his little face tense and his little fists clenched.

She was really angry at that moment!

The aura emanating from Yama changed drastically, and everyone felt a powerful pressure. The noisy chatter that had been going on instantly fell silent.

They looked at Renbao with some nervousness.

"He uses the bones of infants, grinds them into powder, mixes them with medicine, and sells them to you."

Renbao looked at the mountain behind the house, lifted his chubby little leg, and walked quickly towards it.

Everyone's mind went blank, a complete shock.

Grinding infants' bones into powder—isn't that cannibalism?

Their expressions were astonished, horrified, and nauseating.

Liu Shang suddenly thought of the children in her clan who were not yet old enough to survive, and the fact that Old Man Qiu refused to sell them to the Corpse Drivers. Her expression changed drastically, becoming extremely gloomy.

She lifted her leg to catch up with Renbao.

The group looked at each other in bewilderment and followed.

As soon as he entered the back mountain, the cries of infants from all directions flooded Renbao's ears.

He met Yama, the King of Hell.

They are crying.

They are expressing their grievances and the injustices they have suffered.

Renbao stopped almost every time he took a step: "Sister Liushang, there's a baby buried here."

Liu Shang took a shovel and dug one by one.

Before long, ceramic jars appeared on the back hill, containing the remains of children whose bones had been removed and burned.

There was silence.

Everyone's throat tightened, their gazes swept over the pile of ceramic jars, and their eyes burned with fierce passion.

"Old Qiu, he's not even human!"

"These are all children!"

Birth, aging, illness, and death are natural laws.

All living beings fear death. When they are sick or about to die, they will try every means to save their own or their family's lives.

It's not about harming infants to gain a chance at life.

How innocent are the babies! They know nothing and haven't even grown up properly yet.

In any dynasty, there is hope as long as there are talented people.

"Little Yama, you are all-powerful, please take in Old Man Qiu, who has committed such heinous crimes!"

"Little Yama, you must stand up for them!"

The crowd wept and pleaded.

If there truly is retribution in this world, and the Little King of Hell is still alive, they truly hope that evildoers will pay the price for their evil deeds.

Renbao's eyes were already brimming with tears; she felt very sad.

Granny Meng said that once you are reborn as a human, you must live well in this world. Unless your lifespan has come to an end, no one may take your life.

The underworld has its own rules.

There are causes and effects in the mortal world.

"Granny Meng, Renbao, as the Little Yama, must punish the wicked and eliminate evil," Renbao murmured, a hint of anger flashing in his bright eyes, his pupils turning red, and the mark of the Yama King appearing on his forehead. "All ghosts, heed my command! Arrest Qiu Rushi, the man from Shanggan Village in Jiangnan!"
