Born Saints: Starting from Liaozhai

Chapter 56 Imminent Ascension 3

The wind had stopped sometime earlier, and the leaves of the trees in the Zhang family's courtyard trembled slightly, making a soft and rapid sound.

Zhang Xing was met with a barrage of gazes, some wary, others filled with fear.

Zhang Xing's eyes were complicated.

He was somewhat unsure what to do if his so-called elder brother and father were truly demons and zombies in disguise.

Although he was unwilling to believe it, he had to admit that his father, who had mysteriously returned to life, and his older brother, who was so lucky to receive help from immortals, were very suspicious!

It is indeed highly likely that it was transformed from demons and zombies!

Otherwise, how do you explain all of this now?

The more Zhang Xing thought about it, the more terrified he became.

In his mind, he could already picture his father and elder brother tearing off their human disguises to reveal their hideous and ugly appearances.

At this time.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Fahai's eyes lingered on Zhang Xing for a moment, scrutinizing him carefully. Then, he clasped his hands together and said in a deep voice, "This benefactor is a human being."

These words were spoken.

Xu Zhen, Zhao Liuzi, and Officer Feng, who had been secretly on guard, along with hundreds of residents of Guobei County, all breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Liuzi said sarcastically, "You're really lucky, kid, you weren't eaten by those two evil spirits!"

One by one, the residents of Guobei County echoed the sentiments.

"That's right, Zhang Xing, the young master of the Zhang family, is really lucky!"

"Who says it isn't...?"

Zhang Xing felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.

suddenly.

"Master Zhang and the others have arrived!"

A servant's voice rang out

All eyes turned to them.

Xu Shi, Zhang Shan Hai, and a group of servants were seen walking briskly towards them from a distance.

From afar, Zhang Shanhai frowned and shouted, "Master Xu, what do you mean by this? How dare you trespass on my Zhang family's property with such a large group of people!"

Looking at Zhang Shanhai walking towards them, alive and well.

Xu Zhen, Zhao Liuzi, and Constable Feng, along with Magistrate Wang Shenzhi who was secretly watching, all showed fear and suspicion in their eyes.

Zhao Liuzi felt a chill of fear, but still chuckled coldly, "Master Zhang, you're finished! You're already a dead man, yet you still dare to show your face in front of us?"

"You may fool us, but you can't fool Master Fahai's discerning eyes!"

"Master Fahai, quickly look at Master Zhang and make this old bastard reveal his true form!"

The words were spoken.

A series of gazes swept over Master Fahai and Zhang Shanhai, their eyes filled with fear and anticipation.

"Yes, Master Fahai, please make your move quickly!"

"Don't let that old guy get away!"

The people of Guobei County were buzzing with discussion, and even Zhang Xing's eyes showed a hint of fear at this moment.

Like everyone else, he felt that there was something wrong with the father in front of him.

With so many people staring at him, Zhang Shanhai's brows furrowed more and more, his face gradually darkened, and anger appeared in his eyes.

Standing beside him, Xu's fingers gripped her sleeve tightly, her knuckles turning white. She tried to remain calm, but she couldn't hide the panic in her eyes.

among the crowd.

Fahai's expression was solemn. After carefully examining the Zhang family patriarch before him, he shook his head.

He said in a deep voice, "This humble monk has examined him; this Master Zhang is also a human being!"

These words were spoken.

Whether it was Zhang Xing, Zhao Liuzi, or Officer Feng, a look of astonishment flashed across their eyes.

"My father is a human? Not one of those zombies or ghosts?"

"But how is that possible?" Zhang Xing couldn't help but say. "My father was clearly dead, but I watched him come back to life with my own eyes!"

"How can the dead be brought back to life!"

"Since they're not dead or zombies..."

"Could it be that my father really did encounter an immortal and was brought back to life by that immortal?"

Zhang Xing's unreliable channel.

At the very back of the crowd.

The county magistrate, Wang Shenzhi, who was secretly observing, was also stunned.

The scene before him was completely different from what he had imagined.

Is this old man really alive?

It's not a corpse that has become a spirit?

How is that possible?

"Could it be that this Master Fahai is incompetent and can't see the problem with Zhang Shanhai, and is just a fraud?"

Wang Shenzhi's face was grim.

At this moment, Zhao Liuzi also shouted, "Master Fahai, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"How could Zhang Shanhai not have a problem! If he didn't have a problem, how did he survive?!"

Faced with doubts from the crowd, Fahai also began to have some reservations.

To verify his idea, he immediately threw off his cassock.

In an instant, a golden Buddhist light emanated from the robe and enveloped Zhang Shanhai.

Under the Buddha's light, even the air seemed to become more solemn.

Zhao Liuzi, Xu Zhen, and Officer Feng stared wide-eyed, their mouths involuntarily agape.

Exclamations of surprise rose and fell.

The crowd's faces showed both shock and barely concealed anticipation.

They stared intently at Zhang Shanhai within the Buddha's light, as if they could see him reveal his true, terrifying form at any moment.

However, to their surprise...

Amidst this vast Buddhist light, Zhang Shanhai showed no unusual reaction; on the contrary, his expression gradually relaxed.

A hint of relief even appeared on his face, as if he were basking in the warm sun.

Fahai's gaze was deep and focused. After sensing carefully for a moment, he slowly withdrew his Buddhist light, put his hands together, and said in a deep voice, "This humble monk has verified that this benefactor is indeed a human."

At this point, Zhao Liuzi and the others had no choice but to believe this outrageous fact.

"But how could Master Zhang have suddenly come back to life? Could it be that he really encountered a celestial being?!"

"Good heavens, what incredible luck!"

Amidst a chorus of discussion.

Staring at Zhang Xing in the crowd, Zhang Shanhai's face darkened, and he scolded, "You unfilial son, do you also think your father is dead? Afraid that your father will eat you?"

Zhang Xing's face flushed red, and Nana dared not speak.

At this moment, sensing the tense atmosphere, Xu Zhen couldn't help but say, "Master Fahai, just because Master Zhang Shanhai is innocent doesn't mean that the eldest son of the Zhang family is innocent!"

"I bet there's something fishy about that young master Zhang!"

"Master Xu is right!" Zhao Liuzi hurriedly said, "This young master Zhang is definitely a powerful demon, and he has caused a great deal of harm!"

Before Fahai could say anything, Zhang Shanhai reacted first, angrily rebuking, "What do you know, you scoundrel!"

"How dare you, a lowly person, speak ill of my son!"

These words were spoken.

Xu Zhen, Zhao Liuzi, and the others were taken aback.

Zhao Liuzi, in particular, was both angry and puzzled, wondering where the Zhang family patriarch got the audacity to speak to him like that.

Zhao Liuzi said angrily, "Then tell me, what's going on with your eldest son?"

In an instant, all eyes were fixed on Zhang Shanhai.

Zhang Shanhai hesitated, "My son... my son..."

He hesitated, unsure whether he should speak.

At this time.

A clear and distant sigh drifted slowly from outside the crowd.
