The Great Seminary

Chapter 133 All Die (Part )

Zhang Gui’s favorite philosopher in his previous life was named Rousseau.

This man lived a dissolute life, loved women, and never cared about his children.

If they have one, they are sent to an orphanage and left to fend for themselves.

This kind of human nature is extremely rubbish and heartless.

But strangely, he wrote a great philosophical treatise.

He openly defended his behavior of abandoning his wife and children.
"I was so busy loving the world that I couldn't love my wife, my lover, and my children!"

If someone else had done something so shameless, Zhang Gui would have certainly sneered at it.

But when it comes to Rousseau, he seems to have some understanding, not just agreement, but understanding.

It is simply because Zhang Gui himself is willing to stand on the highest moral point and treat the general public with fairness, generosity and fraternity.

However, they rarely forgive "people" in the individual sense, and are even "two-faced" people who will take revenge for any fault.

So if he didn't know that there was a Mr. Yin in King Zhen's camp, he would definitely not be able to compete with him at this moment.

The first time Zhang Gui met Lu Zhenduan, he used the main god cluster "Ming Feng Hui Hei" to connect with the divine power, and also plotted against Wu Chang to make him die without knowing it, in order to avenge King Zhen's murder of Li Yunbo.

However, although Lu Zhenduan is a classmate of King Zhen, he cannot be killed for the time being because of his special identity, which is very likely to cause serious consequences such as the death of the rabbit and the tragedy of the fox.

But killing others, especially those traitors who jumped from Zhang Gui's army to King Zhen's camp, would not be a big deal.

An ancient sage from Dongshengzhou once said, "One can die without any illness even if thousands of people point fingers at him."

And the traitors who "rebelled against their superiors and betrayed their masters" are regarded as "the target of public condemnation" in the eyes of most people.

Even if you are in the right, as long as you don't execute them publicly, they will be killed for no apparent reason.

Two hours later, they were still in the lobby of the old village government office in Zhihai Town.

Lu Zhenduan looked at the dozen or so dead bodies on the ground, and their vivid faces from not long ago kept flashing in his mind.

His face turned increasingly pale.

What looked even uglier than his was the old doctor who was invited back to the village headquarter, along with his four or five trembling colleagues.

"Can any of you doctors see anything unusual about these corpses?"

Hearing the question from the host in the hall, the doctors looked at each other, and finally the old doctor said in a dry voice:
"Lu Zaicheng, all of your subordinates died in accidents. No, there's nothing unusual."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenduan asked again with an expressionless face:

"Ten people, ten different ways of dying, all accidents.

Doctor Wei, you have been practicing medicine for decades, have you ever seen such a strange thing?"

The old doctor's forehead was covered with sweat, and he stammered and shook his head:
"That's not the case. Such a strange thing, let alone seeing it, I've never even heard of it.

It would not be surprising if many people died within a few hours.

More than 20 years ago, when I was practicing medicine in northern Xinjiang, I encountered a major epidemic in Heyang.

It was common for the entire city to be turned into corpses overnight. It was really terrifying.

But for a group of people to meet their doom one by one is simply unbelievable."

"Since you know it's incredible, why are you still trying to evade me with such words?"

Lu Zhenduan roared angrily.

As soon as Zhang Gui came back, he gave him a heavy blow.

Then so many of his men died.

However, he was completely suppressed by Zhang Gui in terms of his status in the Dragon and Tiger Shogunate. Without these generals who had defected to him, he lost the hub for commanding the soldiers.

Besides, even a fool would know that there was something fishy about the cause of these people's death.

All the pressures finally tore apart the elegant demeanor of this Imperial College student.

The old doctor shuddered and said tremblingly:

"My Lord, please calm down. My Lord, please calm down.

This matter is so strange. I am afraid that it is not a disease or disaster that caused the death, but internal disease or external injury.

Rather, it was an encounter with evil spirits.

There's no use in consulting us doctors.

The right thing to do is to find a man who can bring good luck and avoid bad luck. There is such a man at the dock.

It is said that he was the founding disciple of Master Liu Wuchang of the Gongde Hall in Siyang County, and his name was Liu Zaisheng.

He was born mature at a young age, with an amazing appearance, and was quite knowledgeable about numerology.

Why not give it a try?"

I could tell he was passing the buck, but things had come to this point and there was no way a few doctors could predict what the outcome would be.

Lu Zhenduan could only nod calmly and send someone to invite the so-called "founding disciple of Master Liu Wuchang of Siyang County's Merit Hall".

It's just a last resort.

But what he didn't know was that at this moment, one of his subordinates, with bloodshot eyes and a deathly look on his face, was also begging Liu Zaisheng to exorcise the evil spirit and save his life.

The oblique street of the commercial quarters at the Zhihai Town Wharf.

Inside a two-story stone house with a plaque with the words "Xiao Gongde Fang" on a black background and gold edges hanging on the door.

A man wearing a green linen robe, skinny, with a pointed face and monkey-like appearance, who looked like an old man, actually claimed to be only thirty years old. He stared at the young guest with a gloomy face for a long time.

At the same time, he kept calculating with his fingers.

"Mr. Zaisheng, you haven't finished your fortune telling yet? The last time I told you your fortune, it didn't take this long!"

The fortune teller was named Han Dafu. He had an older brother named Han Futai and a cousin named Zhou Shengguo.

They were all deputy guards of the Dragon and Tiger Shogunate.

Later, Zhang Gui disappeared and Lu Zhenduan became the prime minister of the shogunate.

Zhou Shengguo, who prided himself on being smart, brought Han Futai and Han Dafu to the "Xiao Gongdefang" for fortune-telling.

The fortune stick I got was 'It will be auspicious to start a new business'.

So he encouraged the two brothers of the Han family to betray their master and surrender to the enemy.

But no matter how he instigated, his elder brother Han Futai remained loyal to Zhang Gui.

However, his younger brother Han Dafu changed his mind and eventually joined King Zhen's camp with Zhou Shengguo.

As a result, both of them were promoted smoothly.

But unexpectedly, after only a few days of good times, disaster suddenly struck.

Let’s not talk about others, let’s just say that Zhou Shengguo was walking normally when he accidentally slipped.

His left leg tripped over his right leg and he fell headfirst, breaking his spine and falling dead to the ground.

Han Dafu, who was present, was frightened to the point of almost losing his soul.

Within half a day, most of the brothers who had just become sworn brothers in their group suddenly died.

It would be really strange if you said it wasn’t strange!

Han Dafu thought about it and remembered Liu Zaisheng who said to him, "It would be auspicious to start a new business."

They would come to the "Small Merit Room" to avoid disasters or settle accounts.

Because his life and property were at stake, he was anxious and thinking hard, so he spoke without the politeness and patience he had last time when he simply asked for divination or fortune-telling.

"Now more than ten people have died one by one.

Not to mention my cousin Zhou Shengguo, I heard that Qian Wanbao, Liu Fu and Feng Yingsheng all came to you to have their fortunes told.

They are all successful.

But now they are all dead.

You have to give an explanation!"

Facing Han Dafu's fierce face, Liu Zaisheng seemed unconcerned and said slowly:

"Don't be impatient, you can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient.

Okay, I’ve figured it out. You’re in conflict with Tai Sui. Wait, wait, wait!
Are you, are you really one of the three generals who came to me for fortune-telling a few days ago?"

By the end, he had lost his initial calmness and his tone became noticeably more hurried.

At the same time, Liu Zaisheng's expression became serious.
