Chapter 520

Who made him cultivate! Main text volume, Chapter 518, Invincible Pill Battle. After Squire Song was resurrected, he always felt that the atmosphere in the house was strange.

He remembered that the family atmosphere was quite harmonious before he died. How could it be that in less than half an hour after he died, he felt that there was faint hostility among the children?

Especially the youngest daughter, kneeling on the ground and crying, was she crying because she died? She was quite filial.

It's a pity that no matter what, he couldn't let her marry the kid surnamed Zhou. After all, they were biological siblings.

Squire Song temporarily put the family's problems aside. The most important thing now was to solve the painting matter first.

His image was very unsightly. His face and clothes were covered in blood. These were caused by his vomiting blood after his soul was pulled away and his body functions were out of order.

"Thank you, Daoist priest, for your life-saving grace!"

"Squire Song, you are too polite. I don't know what the situation with the painting is?"

Squire Song sighed long, sat on the chair, and told the past.

"Twenty years ago, I failed in business and wanted to jump off a cliff to commit suicide. Who would have thought that I was blocked by tree branches in mid-air, and luckily saved my life. And a stone platform extended directly below me. I jumped to the stone platform and found that it was a cave deep inside."

"There was something in the depths of the cave calling me. At that time, I was not afraid of death either. I followed the sound and found that it was a painting talking. The painting said it could help me do business and become a big tycoon, so I brought it out of the cave."

"With the help of the painting, I was really handy in doing business. Several successful investments made me the number one businessman in the county, and I also married and had children because of this, and my family was happy and harmonious."

When Squire Song said this, Lu Yang and the three silently turned their heads to look at the Song brothers and sisters and the butler.

"Please continue?"

"In the past few months, the painting said every night that it wanted my life. Out of fear, I flooded it and burned it, but none of it worked. Even if I threw it to the suburbs, it would still return home the next day!"

Speaking of this, Squire Song's eyes were full of panic. These days, he was restless because of the painting, his expression was dazed, and in the last two weeks, he was often awakened by fright.

Lu Yang touched his chin, this was fresh.

"Let's go, take us to see the painting."

Squire Song twisted and turned the three of them, and touched a mechanism in a small room. The underground passage opened, and it was pitch black below.

There were many gold and silver treasures in the dark room, which were very precious to mortals, but to Lu Yang, even the tassels on the sword hilt were more valuable than these.

Among them, one box was the most conspicuous, made of iron, wrapped in layers of yellow talismans. Squire Song tore off the talismans, opened the iron box, and revealed the painting inside.

"I was the one whose soul was pulled away by it."

Thinking of the scene just now, Squire Song still had lingering fears. If Lu Yang hadn't taken out the Soul-Returning Pill, he would have been more likely to be in danger.

"Sure enough."

The closer to the painting, the more one could feel the gloomy atmosphere.

Lu Yang opened the scroll. The painting was a landscape painting in ink and wash, with a woman washing clothes by the river in the painting.

Suddenly, the painting twisted, and the woman washing clothes seemed to come alive, slowly turning her head to look at the people outside the painting.

"Cultivators again?"

Water stains seeped out of the painting, and the water stains floated up, condensing into the image of the woman washing clothes in the air.

"Is it you who pulled his soul back?"

The woman washing clothes stared at Lu Yang, her expression unkind, and her beautiful appearance was also a bit twisted.

"Cultivator, don't meddle in other people's business."

The woman washing clothes felt a strong threat from Lu Yang and the three. These three were different from previous cultivators. If they could not do it, it would be best to persuade them to leave.

The woman washing clothes pointed at Squire Song and said coldly: "Twenty years ago, he promised me that as long as I helped him become a tycoon in one place, he would offer his soul to me. Twenty years have passed, his family is complete, his business is successful, and he is wealthy. It is exactly the time for him to fulfill his promise!"

"Is there such a thing?"

Lu Yang turned his head to look at Squire Song. He was actually not surprised. Squire Song must have hidden something in his previous statement, otherwise, why would the painting help you do business?

There must be something to ask for.

The water ghost encountered in Hanshui City at that time helped people commit insurance fraud in order to buy salt, which was the same principle.

Squire Song nodded in shame.

"You see it, right?" The woman washing clothes sneered, looking at Squire Song with disdain.

"The promise at that time was voluntary, without any falsehood. Now I ask to fulfill the promise, what is wrong with it?"

Lu Yang shook his head slowly, looking at the woman washing clothes with a pitying look: "Have you read the Great Xia criminal law?"

"Great Xia criminal law?"

Lu Yang hooked a smile at the corner of his mouth, used the Invincible Pill, and said: "The Great Xia criminal law stipulates that the victim promises others to infringe on their specific legal interests, such as the disposal of property, causing minor injuries, serious injuries, etc., but the promise causing death is invalid."

"Of course, not all promises causing death are invalid. Promises in a few situations such as life-and-death rings that are not coerced are valid, and your behavior does not belong to a few situations."

"If you were more studious and had studied the history of Great Xia law, you should know that there are many magic treasures in the demonic path in history. They use fulfilling wishes as bait to lure others to exchange at the cost of their lives, so as to achieve the purpose of refining souls."

"The Minister of Justice at that time discovered this situation, so he added this article to the Great Xia law, just to prevent you magic treasures from doing this kind of thing."

Lu Yang sighed, looking at the woman washing clothes with the eyes of looking at a legal blind: "Now it seems that popularizing the law is not in place."

Since learning that his master was often locked in prison, Lu Yang studied law whenever he had time, trying not to follow in his master's footsteps.

Now it seems that studying law is still useful.

Ordinary people study law, although they learn a lot, they don't know which one to choose when using it, and usually fall into a dilemma.

But Lu Yang is different. He has the Invincible Pill. Using the Invincible Pill during the battle can help him filter out the most suitable legal provisions from his mind in the shortest time.

It should be noted that the Invincible Pill cannot choose legal provisions that Lu Yang has not learned. After all, the victory conditions given by the Invincible Pill are based on Lu Yang's cognition.

The Decayed Fairy was amazed in the spiritual space. As the founder of the Invincible Pill, she didn't expect the Invincible Pill to be used like this.

Tao Yaoye secretly transmitted sound to Seeing Lan Ting: "Junior Sister Lan, do you know this article?"

Seeing Lan Ting shook her head blankly: "No, the sect doesn't teach this."

Both of them saw confusion in each other's eyes, feeling that there was an invisible chasm between them and Senior Brother Lu.

"You detained Squire Song's soul, which has violated the criminal law and constitutes attempted murder. Come with us."

The woman washing clothes sneered, not scared by Lu Yang: "Don't think that you are the only one who has read the criminal law. To tell you the truth, I am a magic treasure, and I am not the object managed by the criminal law at all!"

Lu Yang raised his eyes and looked at the woman washing clothes, and said oh: "Is that so? That's even better. Since it is an ownerless magic treasure, it doesn't matter if I break it."

Seeing Lan Ting's expression was strange. Why did this conversation sound more and more familiar?

"Arrogant, do you really think I'm afraid of you three little cultivators!"
