Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Outside the door, the woman was breathing heavily, with beads of sweat rolling down her face. It was obvious that she had run all the way up the mountain.

"Report to the Master... The pawnshop is shameless, pawning our belongings at a low price..."

She took another breath: "Senior Sister Bai refused to do it and wanted to find another buyer... The other party was being unreasonable and wouldn't let me leave..."

Lu Xunhuan supported her and said, "Come in and sit down first."

The woman sat down on the threshold and said, "Everyone was arguing, and the authorities were alerted. They came and said our belongings were of unknown origin..."

She raised her eyes and looked at Lu Xunhuan aggrievedly: "They said we were colluding with the bandits and helping them sell stolen goods. Not only did they confiscate our belongings, they also arrested Senior Sister Bai and the others."

When Lu Xunhuan heard this, he was extremely angry.

Is there any justice in this damn world? In broad daylight, the government bullies women and children.

He asked the woman, "How did you get away?"

The woman said, "We entered Changfeng Town and were hungry. Senior Sister Bai asked me to buy some cakes to fill our stomachs. She took us to the pawnshop. By the time I bought the cakes and rushed to the pawnshop, the two sides had already started arguing..."

"Senior Sister Bai saw me from afar and winked at me, telling me not to go..."

Lu Xun Huan turned around and said to Senior Sister Lan, "I'm going to go to town. I'll leave the mountain to you. Take good care of everyone."

Senior Sister Lan nervously pulled him back: "Is there any danger?"

Lu Xun Huan patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay. Besides taking everyone hunting, you should make good use of your time to practice."

Having said that, he stepped out of the door.

Senior Sister Lan hurriedly shouted, "Wait."

She ran back quickly, took out a long sword, and handed it to Lu Xunhuan: "Use it for self-defense."

Lu Xun Huan took the long sword, drew it out of its sheath and looked at it: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring them back safely."

The next morning, Lu Xunhuan arrived before the Changfeng Town government office opened.

He saw the drum on the right side of the yamen, walked up, swung the drumstick and hit it hard.

When the people on the street heard the drumbeats, they quickly gathered together out of curiosity.

After the drum had sounded for dozens of times, a yamen runner came running over and shouted, "Why are you beating so early in the morning? It's not even time to open the gate yet."

He went over and grabbed Lu Xunhuan's hand: "Put it down, put it down."

Lu Xunhuan stretched out his left hand and pinned him to the spot.

The bailiff was unable to move and his face turned red.

Lu Xun Huan said, "Let the mayor come to the class. If he doesn't come, I will keep knocking."

After saying this, he let go of the yamen runner, swung up the drumstick, and started beating again.

It was a quiet morning, and the rumbling sound of drums spread throughout the town.

Many people rushed to the scene, and soon the yamen was crowded with people and noisy.

A quarter of an hour later, the mayor finally showed up.

He brought a few yamen runners with him, pushed through the crowd and walked in.

"Stop, stop, you're making noise for no reason, and you're not letting us sleep?"

Lu Xunhuan stopped beating the drum, turned around and asked, "Are you the mayor?"

The mayor shook his official uniform and said, "Exactly. What grievance have you made? Tell me. If you have no legitimate reason and are disturbing the public without reason, you should be detained."

Lu Xun Huan put down his drumstick and bowed, saying, "I am Lu Xun Huan, the Heavenly Gate, and I pay my respects to the mayor."

When the mayor heard about Dengtianmen, he immediately understood.

He snorted and said, "Humph, you, Dengtianmen, colluded with bandits and came to town to sell the stolen goods. Now you've been caught red-handed. So, are you convinced? Are you still trying to make trouble?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "How could we, the Dengtian Sect, a prestigious sect dedicated to cultivating immortals, engage in such shady activities? Those items were the personal belongings left behind by the former Sect Leader. Lately, we've been short of funds on the mountain, so several of our sisters brought those items with them, just to exchange them for some silver to make ends meet. You're arresting people and seizing their belongings without asking any questions. Are you trying to starve our disciples to death?"

When the people heard this, they began to talk about it, and outside the yamen, there was another uproar.

The mayor stroked his beard and said, "You say they are personal property, so they are personal property? How can you prove that they didn't come from a bandit's den?"

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Just because you say they are stolen goods, they are stolen goods. How can you prove that they came from a bandit's den?"

The mayor turned to the yamen runners and said, "Open the door, let's go to the court to talk."

After a while, the gate of the yamen opened and the mayor walked in.

Then, he stood inside the gate and said, "You kid from Dengtianmen, please come in. The rest of you, please stay outside the line and don't approach the gate."

Lu Xunhuan put his left hand behind his back, held the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, stepped over the tall and thick threshold of the yamen, and walked in with his head held high.

The mayor sat in the hall and slammed the gavel: "You rude and unruly commoner, why don't you kneel before me?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Those who cultivate immortality only kneel before their ancestors, parents, and masters. They don't even kneel before the king. Are you, the mayor, more powerful than the king?"

The mayor glared at me, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old? A top expert in the immortal world, highly respected, can indeed refuse to kneel before the king. But you, a disciple of a small sect, put on the guise of an immortal cultivator, and you think you can be so proud of yourself?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Let's get down to business. First, let my three senior sisters from Dengtianmen go."

The mayor slammed the gavel again and said, "How dare you! You just let me go! You really don't know your place! Kneel down."

Lu Xunhuan stood with his head held high: "No kneeling."

The mayor called to the yamen runners and said, "Make him kneel down."

At a command, four yamen runners came up, some pressed on his shoulders, some held his legs, trying to force Lu Xunhuan to kneel down.

But no matter how hard they tried, Lu Xunhuan didn't move at all.

Seeing that the four men were unable to deal with Lu Xunhuan, the other yamen runners rushed forward, surrounded Lu Xunhuan, and used all their strength together.

Just when everyone was trying their best, a figure flashed and Lu Xunhuan broke free and stood outside the circle.

The yamen runners suddenly lost their strength, their center of gravity was unstable, and they fell together in a very embarrassing manner.

Outside the gate, the people burst into laughter.

The mayor had to look at Lu Xunhuan differently.

Can Dengtianmen also cultivate disciples with good strength?

Dengtianmen is under the jurisdiction of Changfeng Town, so everyone is relatively familiar with Dengtianmen.

In the past, it was my impression that apart from the leader of Dengtian Sect, none of the disciples had any outstanding abilities.

Therefore, people do not have much respect for Dengtianmen.

The government office usually doesn't pay much attention to Dengtianmen, but it also doesn't take special care of Dengtianmen.

To put it bluntly, this is due to strength.

Strength determines status.

If you have ability, people will naturally respect you.

If you don’t have the ability, I’m sorry, few people will pay attention to you.

The mayor waved his hand at the embarrassed and bewildered yamen runners and said, "Forget it, forget it. I won't bother with him. Just stand still."

After the bailiffs had formed into two lines and stood in place, the mayor picked up the gavel and slammed it down. "Since the Dengtianmen disciples' mistakes were unintentional and they didn't deliberately collude with the bandits, I hereby render the following verdict: the individuals are acquitted and the stolen property is confiscated. Young man, do you have any objections?"

Lu Xun Huan cupped his hands and bowed lightly: "Thank you, Mayor. Please release the person quickly."

The mayor looked at the yamen runners and said, "Release them."

A quarter of an hour later, the three female disciples of Dengtianmen were brought to the lobby.

Seeing that everyone's clothes were in good order, Lu Xunhuan felt a little relieved.

He asked Senior Sister Bai, "You weren't bullied, were you?"

Senior Sister Bai shook her head: "No, it's just that those yamen runners were full of foul language, and they kept saying it all night long. It was unbearable to listen to."

The mayor didn't want to listen to them talking in the lobby anymore. After all, it was not pleasant to hear them talk.

He waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go."

Lu Xun Huan then asked Senior Sister Bai, "Are you hungry?"

Senior Sister Bai nodded: "I'm hungry. I've been locked up all night without a bite to eat or even a sip of water."

Lu Xun Huan looked at the mayor and said, "Mr. Mayor, we are all innocent, right? We can leave freely, right?"

The mayor nodded impatiently: "Not guilty, not guilty, go away."

A hint of a smile appeared on Lu Xunhuan's lips. "Since I'm innocent, why am I being held in custody by you for no reason for the entire night? Shouldn't I be given an explanation?"

The mayor was immediately displeased. He let you go because you were disciples of an immortal cultivation sect. Now you still want an explanation? Are you crazy?

He scolded, "Are you done yet? You're disrupting the court. Do you want to be arrested again?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "First, return our belongings to us. Second, the three of us were detained innocently. The government must compensate each of them with one hundred taels of silver as compensation for mental damage, lost wages, nutritional supplements, and verbal abuse..."

After hearing this, the mayor's eyes almost popped out of his head. He slammed the gavel fiercely: "Asshole..."

A token was thrown over and landed on the table right in front of him.

He looked down, and suddenly, the expression on his face became as ugly as it could be.

Lu Xun Huan said calmly, "You decide. If there's no fair ruling, I'll appeal to the Zhongzhou government."

Beside him, Senior Sister Bai was bewildered: "Appeal, what is an appeal?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Just go to Zhongzhou Prefecture and sue the mayor."

The mayor took the token and looked at it again and again.

That’s right, my eyes were not blurring. It was indeed the token of the Zhongzhou branch of the Immortal Friends Association.

He suddenly remembered the rumors these days.

It is said that the Immortal Friends Association sent three people to Dengtianmen. After finding out the truth, they executed the old leader of Dengtianmen and supported a young disciple of Dengtianmen to become the leader.

He just listened to it at the time without thinking about it.

But now I think, if this young disciple has no connection with the Immortal Friends Association, is it necessary for others to support him?

Oh my goodness!

He hurriedly left his seat, ran out, and came to Lu Xunhuan, holding the token in both hands and handing it over respectfully.

"Mistake, mistake, please forgive me, Immortal..."

After Lu Xunhuan got the token back, the mayor hurriedly ordered: "Quick, quick, take out their belongings. Also, bring three hundred taels of silver, wait a minute, five hundred taels..."

After leaving the yamen, Lu Xunhuan took the three women to the best restaurant in town for a good meal.

At the dinner table, Senior Sister Bai took out five hundred taels of silver notes and counted them again and again.

She whispered to Lu Xunhuan, "Are you still selling things?"

Lu Xun Huan smiled and said, "Why keep that old guy's stuff? Sell it. After selling it, find a tailor shop and make five sets of sect uniforms for each of us."

Senior Sister Bai was shocked and said, "Five sets per person, twenty people, that's a hundred sets. How much will that cost?"

Lu Xun Huan took out a piece of jade and held it up to the light from the window. "These things might be worth some money. It's okay. You can earn money later. Follow me. I can't let you suffer any injustice. I must make sure you live a good life."
