I, a minor character, fell into the Shura field of the heroine and the villain

"Of course you can, Master, please follow me in." Zhou Su maintained a businesslike smile.

The Zhou family's house has three courtyards, which is very luxurious in this small town.

"Master, I'll ask the servants to prepare some wine and food. You two can wait in this reception room for a while." Zhou Su said.

However, Zhao Kangping waved his hand and said, "No need. We'll come over, explain the matter, and then leave."

This surprised Zhou Su a little. The smile on his face disappeared and he became serious.

At this time, Dongfang Jingrou stepped forward and showed her jade identity card as the chief steward of the Holy Lord Temple.

In addition to her identity and name, this jade token also has the logo of the Zi Yang Holy Land.

Zhou Su was born into a peasant family and could not read, but he recognized the symbol of the Ziyang Holy Land because the letters sent back by his younger sister all had the seal of the Ziyang Holy Land on them.

"Your sister was one of my subordinates." Dongfang Jingrou's eyes were filled with sorrow. She paused and continued, "She died yesterday."

Zhou Su was initially attracted by the woman's appearance. He had never seen such a beautiful woman before. However, he did not dare to look at her any longer and quickly averted his gaze to avoid angering the fairy.

But after hearing what the other party said, he was slightly stunned.

"What?" Zhou Su asked as if to confirm.

"She died in action yesterday." Dongfang Jingrou suppressed her inner sadness and spoke again.

Zhou Yan didn't have to die. She was one of the people who took the lead in rushing into the He family manor.

While searching the He family mansion, they encountered a group of men in black and a conflict broke out between the two sides.

That was when she died in battle.

Dongfang Jingrou has already received news that someone from the Yang family is coming to support her.

In fact, she could have sent some people to intercept them, and maybe this wouldn't have happened.

But the matter was urgent and she was unable to make arrangements in time.

Although there weren't many people left to dispatch at the time, she still regretted it.

Fortunately, several sisters who were close to Zhou Yan recovered her body before He Weiyuan blew herself up.

Now Dongfang Jingrou also brought back Zhou Yan's body.

She took out a sandalwood coffin from her storage ring.

Seeing this, Zhou Su retreated repeatedly.

Dongfang Jingrou opened the lid of the coffin in front of him.

He died yesterday, quite honorably. His body was intact, save for a single knife wound that went through his chest and abdomen.

Unlike some sisters who were unlucky, they were either smashed into pieces by He Weiyuan's heavy sword or their bodies were completely destroyed in the explosion.

Zhou Su was also very surprised when he saw the person in the coffin.

He immediately burst into tears.

"Sister~~Sister~~Why are you walking in front of your brother?" The man burst into tears and sobbed.

His loud crying immediately attracted the attention of other people in the mansion.

A middle-aged woman came out from the inner room.

"You idiot, how old are you? Why are you crying?" The woman looked strong and sturdy, with broad shoulders and a big waist. She was not a kind woman at first glance.

Then, the woman was also stunned when she saw a coffin parked in the yard.

She looked at Zhao Kangping and the other man again, and was stunned at first. Her eyes stayed on Zhao Kangping for a long time.

Perhaps because she had never seen such a handsome man before, she almost drooled.

"My sister is back. She, she..." Zhou Su said in a crying voice, pointing at the coffin.

When the woman approached the coffin and took a look, she was shocked by the woman inside.

She was so frightened that she took a few steps back and hid behind Zhou Su.

"She, she... is dead." The woman's expression did not show sadness, but rather an extremely suppressed and gloating look.

This made Zhao Kangping feel strange.

At this time, a boy of eight or nine years old walked out from inside. He was chubby and looked very strong.

"Dad, Mom, what happened?" The boy heard the noise and ran out curiously.

"Son, your aunt...she, she's back. She...ah~" Perhaps he didn't know how to explain the concept of death to a child, and he was suddenly speechless.

Just stood there wiping away tears silently.

Zhao Kangping looked around the house and said, "Are the two elders still alive?"

Upon hearing this, the couple's faces turned strange and their eyes became evasive.

Dongfang Jingrou said, "I remember Zhou Yan came home ten years ago. When she came back, she said her mother was seriously ill. Fortunately, she transferred some spiritual energy to her mother, and the old lady got better."

"She also left behind some longevity elixirs before she left. Ten years later, the old lady should still be in good health."

However, after these words were spoken, Zhou Su looked ashamed, lowered his head and dared not look directly at the two of them.

Zhao Kangping noticed something was wrong, and he first released his spiritual sense, spreading it to the entire Zhou Mansion.

At this time, the little boy asked: "Dad, what is Erlao?"

"They are your grandparents." Zhou Su said.

"Oh~ milk..." The boy was about to say something when his mother covered his mouth with her big hands.

"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking. Go play somewhere else." The woman, who was obviously a bit tough, said sternly.

Zhou Su seemed a little afraid of his wife, and he almost had to look at her every time he spoke.

At this time, Zhao Kangping released his spiritual sense to investigate and gained some results.

Without waiting for the couple to say anything else, he jumped up on his own, stepped on the air, flew over the roofs one by one, and flew towards the Zhou family's backyard.

Zhao Kangping's actions immediately caused the couple to experience extreme emotional fluctuations.

"Master, what does this mean?" The two of them were obviously a little nervous, and Zhou Su and his wife even wanted to go into the inner room.

But Dongfang Jingrou would not let him have his wish. She said, "Wait a minute."

There was an irresistible intimidation in her words. The couple froze, as if they had turned into wooden figures and could no longer move.

After a while, Zhao Kangping came out with a white-haired, hunchbacked old man.

Unlike Zhou Suli and his wife who were dressed in bright and fancy clothes, the old man's clothes were very old and full of patches. It was obvious that he was from a poor family.

The old man was somewhat confused, and kept repeating: "Misfortune for the family, misfortune for the family."

This immediately alerted Dongfang Jingrou. She looked at the couple sharply and asked, "What's going on?"

She withdrew her pressure, but her words took on a questioning tone.

Thump~

The couple actually knelt down at the same time.

Although they had seen many cultivators, all of them before were independent cultivators, and they were basically polite to them.

But no monk has ever dared to oppress them with coercion.

The pressure released by Dongfang Jingrou was restrained, but when it came upon this mortal couple, they had the illusion that a mountain was about to fall on them, their chests felt stuffy, and their breathing became difficult.

It is clearly the season of bleak autumn winds, but I am already sweating profusely.

According to their account, some changes happened in the Zhou family.

The Zhou family did live a prosperous life because Zhou Yan became a monk.

However, after their lives improved, they also lost the simplicity of rural people.

In particular, Zhou Suli's wife, Zhang, developed a bad habit of gambling.

I go to the town's gambling house to gamble almost every few days.

At first, she didn't gamble much, but gambling can be addictive.

Every time Zhou Yan sent back a large amount of silver notes, it was enough for the Zhou family to squander, which also fueled Zhang's love for gambling.

But the problem was that Mrs. Zhou later fell ill.

The family expenses for medical treatment are huge.

In this way, Zhang gambled while treating the old lady at home.

If it were just this, the Zhou family could still maintain their dignity.

However, Zhang gambled more and more in the gambling house, and gradually attracted the attention of the local tyrants in the gambling house.

The other party thought she was a fat sheep, so they colluded with the gambling house to set up a trap to win her money.

There was no way Zhang could win against the gambling house, and he ended up owing a huge debt.

The Zhou family almost had to sleep on the streets because they couldn't pay back the money.

Coincidentally, Zhou Yan happened to be back home to visit her family. After learning about the family situation, she immediately paid off the family's debts.

However, she also used this opportunity to warn Zhang and encouraged her brother to divorce his wife.

However, Zhou Su was always afraid of his wife, so the matter was left unresolved.

Zhou Yan's vacation was very short and she couldn't stay at home for long, so she left soon.

Before leaving, she warned the local gambling houses not to let Zhang enter the gambling houses again. If they didn't do so, she would find out and make sure the gambling houses didn't have any good luck.

After Zhou Yan came that time, Zhang was quiet for a long time.

The old lady's condition also improved a little thanks to Zhou Yan's transfer of spiritual power.

However, this method did not last long. After two or three years, the old lady's illness relapsed.

Zhou Su asked Zhang to take care of his mother.

But Zhang just dealt with it perfunctorily and asked her servants to do it for her.

She went to a gambling house in another town to gamble.

As a result, the servant who was responsible for taking care of the old lady was careless.

The medicinal ingredients used for the old lady were not stored properly and became damp.

This batch of medicines has been contaminated and should not be eaten.

But at this time, Zhang said that they could not be wasted and continued to use these damp and moldy herbs to decoct medicine for the old lady.

Later the old lady died of illness.

After this incident, Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhang had a big quarrel.

Zhang became aggressive and actually beat up Mr. Zhou.

Zhou Su did not dare to disobey his wife, and actually cooperated with her to lock Old Man Zhou in the backyard.

But Zhang continued her gambling career.

But after she caused trouble, the Zhou family's assets shrank drastically.

In order to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, the Zhou family dismissed some of their servants.

Zhang has gambled less in recent years, not because her gambling addiction has subsided, but because she has grown older and lazier, and is no longer willing to travel far to other towns to gamble.

But she was hooked on other things.

After Mrs. Zhou died, she always had nightmares.

Later, whenever some monks came to visit her, she would ask them to come to her home to perform rituals in order to exorcise evil spirits.

However, despite spending a lot of money, Zhang's nightmares did not improve much.

The couple then realized that a considerable number of the monks who came to visit the Zhou family were actually frauds.

He doesn't have any real skills, he's just here to get free food and drinks.

The brief displeasure Zhou Su showed before was actually because he thought the two of them were also the same kind of people.

After listening to the couple's story, Dongfang Jingrou's face darkened. She said angrily, "After Zhou Yan became a cultivator, this is how you took advantage of the benefits she brought you?"
