Chapter 170 - 107: I’ve Never Seen Such Symptoms Before! What Did You Say?
Chen Han watched the woman leave, showing no intention of admitting fault, nor did he hold back. He channeled True Qi into the Demon Energy Ring, and instantly, a barely detectable black mist floated out of the ring. It rapidly flew towards the woman and entered her body.
The speed was incredibly fast, so fast that the average person’s eyes couldn’t keep up; it was almost perfectly hidden.
He’s not someone who wields a demonic artifact to wantonly punish evildoers, but as he said, he wouldn’t indulge unreasonable tourists either.
Then, he looked at the little brat holding the woman’s hand.
This child had been completely spoiled rotten.
Children are cute and endearing, but spoiled brats are universally despised.
Sometimes the disasters caused by spoiled brats can be greater than those caused by criminals.
For example, a brat lighting a firecracker that detonates sewer gas, blowing up a parking lot full of cars, or setting an elevator panel ablaze and destroying the entire elevator, or throwing siblings into a well, among other things.
Parents dismiss these bratty actions as trivial, with phrases like "the child is still young, why argue with them," showing complete disregard. Without harsh social lessons, neither the brats nor their parents will change.
Only after experiencing the hardship of selling a luxury car before selling a house, living on the street, or being dunked headfirst into a hotpot by a ruthless person will these brats wake up.
The child was still young, but without some discipline, he would grow up to be a lawless brat.
Thus, he once more infused True Qi into the Demon Energy Ring, and another trace of barely detectable Demonic Qi flew out, entering the brat’s body.
After Zhu Fei left the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall holding her son’s hand, she grew increasingly displeased. She had come to the Chen Family on a sightseeing tour, as a paying visitor, but the attitude of the Chen Family people was terrible. Their service was atrocious, and they had made her darling son cry.
"No way! I must have my husband teach the Chen Family a lesson. Without an apology from Patriarch Chen, I won’t swallow this anger." Zhu Fei thought hatefully. So what if the other side knows martial arts? In today’s society, as long as someone has authority, even those with martial arts can be made to kneel.
With this in mind, she immediately took out her phone to make a call, when suddenly her son cried out in pain, "Mommy, it hurts, my butt hurts, it hurts so much!"
Hearing this, Zhu Fei quickly asked, "Sweetheart, what’s wrong? Oh dear..."
She was about to squat down when suddenly she felt an intense sensation like glass shards being squeezed and piercing into her flesh, making it impossible for her to squat.
The feeling was somewhat familiar, like a bout of piles, but previously it had never been this painful.
"Mommy, it hurts..." The child howled in agony.
Zhu Fei herself wanted to cry; she was in pain too.
She had no idea how her piles had suddenly flared up, or why her son seemed to have them too. Was it because they ate too much fried stuff at the spicy hotpot place the other day?
The child’s loud crying attracted the attention of other tourists.
Feeling a bit overwhelmed, Zhu Fei wanted to take the child to the car and then go to the county hospital for a check-up. But after just a few steps, she felt as if glass fragments were cutting that tender area.
The pain struck her nerves so hard that tears welled up.
Even when she had piles previously, it was never this painful.
This made her consider driving back, but unable, she resorted to calling her husband. This time, she couldn’t bother with causing trouble for the Chen Family and, once connected, she urgently said into the phone: "Darling, come to the Chen Family to pick us up. Our piles... we’re sick..."
Watching her crying child and surrounded by tourists filming with their phones, she really couldn’t say out loud that her piles had flared up and she couldn’t walk.
That embarrassment could very well end up online.
Standing at the entrance of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall, Chen Han heard the child’s cries and came out to see the wretched mother and son.
He hadn’t expected the effect of the piles to be so quick, and by the look of them, the effect was clearly very intense.
This also led him to look at the Demon Energy Ring in his hand.
To be honest, after obtaining this game system, it’s the magic of causing piles that is his actual spell.
Although this magic is aided by an artifact, and is part of the Demon Dao’s malicious teachings, nonetheless... there’s no "nonetheless"... power knows no moral boundaries and depends entirely on the user, right?
Besides, how could he, a Righteous Sect patriarch, use such a sinister spell?
For the next ten days, this mother and child would endure immense torment from piles.
Thinking of this, he hurried into the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall, helping Aunty Nee with the tidying.
Once the altar cloth was laid out again, Chen Han also assisted Aunty Nee in placing the new offerings of tea and wine.
These were the Chen Family’s regular offerings to the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable.
Aunty Nee also instructed him, "Patriarch, start today’s incense lighting. The ritual must not be interrupted before the Enlightenment, and afterwards, you must check out the newly arrived statue."
"Yes!" Chen Han nodded.
Moments later, he accepted the incense sticks Aunty Nee handed him and earnestly began lighting incense.
Meanwhile, in the county.
Chen Kai was working overtime, holding meetings with his subordinates at the cultural tourism office late into the night.
Today, Chen Family’s visitor count surpassed 300. Although these 300 visitors didn’t linger in the county, the taxi rides alone generated a windfall for the county’s taxi and cab drivers.
Moreover, spending at the Chen Family meant taxes, and the Chen Family had called back family members from outside. With salaries starting from 5000, taxes were also due, creating job opportunities.
