Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Chapter 155: Aftermath, he was revered as a god by the people in the town.

Just now, the people in the town were still under the control of the Japanese pirates. They were worried about the future of themselves and their families. Even if they saw some abnormal situations with their own eyes, they had no time to study them carefully.

Now that they were out of danger and relaxed, they immediately recalled the amazing scenes and became enthusiastic about exploring and discussing:

"It must be a god! The table where those pirates were eating suddenly flew up by itself and knocked them to the ground!"

"I saw it too. A Japanese pirate was about to chop Chef Zhou with his knife raised in the air, but suddenly blood started to ooze out from the back of his head and he fell down!"

"And the bundle that contained our machetes actually floated over from the air and opened itself!"

"I don't know which deity appeared to help us escape from the Japanese pirates. We must go to the temple to thank them later!"

When asked, Wu Sanjin couldn't help but want to share the miracle he saw with others:

"What you saw is nothing. Just now when I was at Cihang Temple, I saw with my own eyes that a god waved his hand and a bunch of huge rocks floated down from the sky. In a few seconds, they smashed many Japanese pirates to death. That's what we call amazing!"

"A few pirates tried to escape, but the immortal raised his hand and threw them into the sky, where they fell to their death on the spot..."

He described in vivid detail what he saw at Cihang Temple, but he didn't explain it very clearly.

Because earlier on the road, a Taoist priest from Cihang Temple had come to warn him that he must not tell the public that all the Japanese pirates who went to Cihang Temple were killed, but should say that a few of them took advantage of the chaos to escape.

Even so, the townspeople still listened attentively, constantly sighing and exclaiming in amazement.

"The gods in this Cihang Temple are really powerful!"

“No wonder so many dignitaries come to worship at Cihang Temple. It turns out that there is a real god blessing here!”

"This is retribution for that group of Japanese pirates. They actually attacked a Taoist temple that has a true god!"

As everyone was discussing the matter animatedly, Zheng Yuannai and Huiming, who had already discussed how to deal with the aftermath, came over.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Zheng Yuannai climbed onto an intact table and shouted loudly, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

"I am Zheng Yuannai, the commander of the Five Cities Military Division. Today I am leading my servants and the Taoist priests of Cihang Temple to wipe out the bandits! Everyone, follow my orders and arrange the follow-up matters!"

The people didn't quite understand his identity, but they understood that he was an official, and they immediately quieted down and listened to him.

"If there are any seriously injured people at home, bring them to the Taoist priests at Cihang Temple immediately and they will provide you with simple treatment."

"For those with minor injuries, go to the town's clinic for treatment."

"Twenty young men who are not injured, come with me to count the pirates' stolen goods."

The people immediately obeyed.

When the Japanese pirates attacked this time, all the casualties among the people in Yangfeng Town occurred during the period when the Japanese pirates had just entered the town.

Those who were trampled, chopped to the point of death, or bled to death almost all died within an hour. There were seven dead in total.

There were eighteen seriously injured people, almost all of whom were slashed by the Japanese pirates' knives. Now, due to excessive bleeding and deep wounds, their physical condition has become very weak.

As for the battle with the Japanese pirates just now, under Chen Qingzhu's control, there were no casualties, and the injuries were only minor.

The seriously injured were quickly gathered together by their families or enthusiastic neighbors. Huiming came over with a bag filled with fairy dew and five Kun Daoists who did not have great strength.

The abbot had instructed that the presence of the elixir in this treatment should be minimized.

Therefore, they simply gave each seriously injured person a ginseng slice to hold in their mouth. After cleaning the wounds, they dripped the fairy dew into the wounds as an external medicine to remove the external evil that had entered through the wounds, and then applied external medicine for the wounds.

Only when two of them were so weak that even taking ginseng slices had little effect did she have someone feed them a sip of the magic dew.

Even so, after their simple treatment and application of medicine, the expressions of the seriously injured patients were much relieved.

Especially the two who were dying, they were obviously much more energetic.

But they all thought it was the effect of ginseng and didn't think much about it.

After treating the wounded, Zheng Yuannai also had people carry over the stolen property from the Japanese pirates.

In order to make it easier to carry, the Japanese pirates only wanted silver, money, precious jade jewelry, antiques and other items, which were not particularly large in size.

Two people carried the basket in a group, and four groups finished carrying the basket.

Apart from this, there was nothing else, which showed that the things that had been looted in Zhenjiang Prefecture had been put on the ship and sent away somehow.

Looking at the familiar baskets of purses, money bags, gold and silver jewelry, jade and antiques, the townspeople immediately revealed eagerness in their eyes, but no one dared to say anything.

You know, after the last Japanese pirate invasion, even though most of the pirates were wiped out, most of the looted property was not taken away in time, and the government had no intention of returning the property to them.

Five of the bravest young men in the town went to the government office to demand the return of their property, but each of them was beaten with forty sticks and imprisoned for half a month.

When they came back, one of the five had died in prison, two had their legs broken, and two had become a little crazy.

It is said that the Nando Garrison Camp paid a heavy price to wipe out the Japanese pirates, so all the captured spoils had to be used as rewards to the army.

However, someone in the town had a relative serving in the Nandu Garrison Camp, and he had never heard of any military rewards being issued in the camp.

Everyone now knew where the money had gone and could only accept the defeat and not make any more trouble.

After all, the people should not fight against the officials. No matter how important money is, it is not as important as life.

Huiming stepped forward and said loudly:

"Two literate men, please register and claim your belongings."

Hearing this and looking at Huiming's young face, the people immediately showed an expression of disbelief on their faces.

An elderly man stepped forward and asked tremblingly:

"Little Taoist priest, do you mean to return all the property to everyone?"

"Does Mr. Zheng have any objections?"

Zheng Yuannai looked puzzled.

What opinion could he have?

This is what the temple master ordered, and these things originally belonged to the people in the town, so it is only right to return them to them.

Huiming smiled and said:

"Sir Zheng will certainly have no objection, and this is what our temple master just ordered!"

"Who is the abbot of Cihang Temple? Are her words so effective?"

Some people asked doubtfully.

Zheng Yuannai was somewhat amused:

"The master of the temple is what you call a deity. Do you think her words are effective?"

The townspeople suddenly realized what was going on and cheered in surprise.

They can get back their savings of many years, and they no longer have to worry about being penniless after today!

Many people knelt down and thanked him excitedly:

"Thank you, Master of the Immortal Temple!"

"Thank you, Mr. Qingtian!"

Huiming asked everyone to stand up and added:

"The abbot has also ordered that no one should leak what happened today. Otherwise, the next time Yangfeng Town is hit by a disaster, Cihang Temple will no longer protect everyone!"

This was a decision Chen Qingzhu made after careful consideration.

Originally in her plan, Cihang Temple was only the victim, and the rest of the aspects had to be perfectly invisible.

However, things took a turn for the worse in Yangfeng Town.

Half of the Japanese pirates went to Yangfeng Town to cause chaos.

Since the incident was caused by her, there was no way she could just leave the people of Yangfeng Town alone. She had to personally take action to eradicate the Japanese pirates in order to minimize casualties.

Then, the methods of some monks will inevitably be exposed to the eyes of many ordinary people.

Since things are inevitable, we might as well take advantage of the opportunity to conquer Yangfeng Town.

Therefore, before she set off, she did not stop Wu Sanjin from revealing her plan to wipe out the Japanese pirates in Cihang Temple.

When the Japanese pirates were being eliminated in the town, none of the parties deliberately stopped their efforts.

After using both kindness and force, the people in the town had already worshipped her like a god.

After hearing what Huiming said, the town's headman stepped forward and bowed solemnly in response.

"We, the young ones, will obey the Lord's oracle!"

Although they don't know why the master of the Shenxian Temple asked them to keep it a secret, gods have their own reasons.

The gods have given the orders, so of course they have to obey.

Then he turned around and warned the others:

"The master has done a great favor to Yangfeng Town. If anyone dares to disobey the master's oracle, I will immediately get out of Yangfeng Town!"

The townspeople also promised:

"Don't worry, Taoist priest. Since the temple master has given the order, we will definitely do it!"

The people are not stupid.

The power of the master of the Shenxian Temple is there. If bandits come to invade again in the future, he will be the most powerful backer of the town.

How could they disobey the orders of the master of the Shenxian Temple and anger her?
