If he wanted to exchange wealth for his life, Xia Jingsheng had to go to the Hall of the King of Hell to change the records in Xia Jingrui's life and death book.

According to what Xia Jingsheng said, Xia Jingrui personally wrote a letter of repentance and rubbed it on the back of the bamboo piece.

Xia Jingsheng took the letter of repentance and handed over the longevity lamp to Abao, and his soul entered the underworld again.

In the Hall of the King of Hell, Xia Jingsheng made clear his intention and handed over the bamboo slips with inscriptions to the underworld messenger.

After a while, the errand took out the book of life and death, found the page where Xia Jingrui was, added a few strokes, and changed the original life span.

After the matter was completed, Xia Jingsheng handed over the money from the underworld to the underworld messenger, and made a request: "I want to find out the information of a person."

Yin Cha looked at the silver coin, nodded and said, "Name?"

"Lin Yue." Xia Jingsheng said.

"Where are you from?" Yin Cha asked again.

"People from Jiangcheng."

Yin Cha opened the book of life and death, muttered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There is no such person in the book."

Xia Jingsheng was slightly surprised and said, "Impossible."

Yincha flipped through it again, shaking his head as usual.

Seeing Xia Jingsheng's face full of disbelief, the errand flipped through the book of life and death and asked, "Is there any other life for this person?"

Xia Jingsheng thought for a moment, then said, "I have a son, Xia Jingsheng, who is from Jiangcheng."

Yin Cha glanced at Xia Jingsheng, and searched the book for a while.

"The name and place of birth are both wrong." The errand handed the life and death book to Xia Jingsheng.

The book said: Peng Yue, a native of Guicheng, died of unknown cause, and had a son, Xia Jingsheng, who was from Jiangcheng.

"How could this be?!" Since Xia Jingsheng was sensible, his mother's name has always been Lin Yue, and she is the daughter of the owner of the Jiangcheng silk and satin shop.

How could it be possible to be born in Guicheng thousands of miles away.

But if you look closely, except for the name and place of birth, other information including the year of birth and death are all correct.

"Is it possible that the information in this book of life and death is wrong?" Xia Jingsheng asked.

It is impossible to tell by the errand that the name and the place of birth are related to a person's soul.

Xia Jingsheng returned to the underworld full of confusion, but was dragged back when he woke up.

"How?" Aunt Xia asked anxiously.

Xia Jingsheng looked at the sleeping Xia Jingrui with a pale face, "Life is safe, but from now on, Xiahe Factory will slowly decline, and everything will have to start from scratch."

Knowing that Xia Jingrui had narrowly escaped death, Aunt Xia burst into tears, but Xia Gongcheng didn't respond.

He looked at the antique calligraphy and paintings in the room, and sighed, "The Xia family is about to fall."

----------

Seven days later, the arena kicked off, Xia Jingsheng was well-known in Jiangcheng, Taoist Xianyun has also been very popular recently.

The arena set up by the two attracted countless passers-by.

As soon as Taoist Xianyun took the stage, warm cheers came from the audience.

With a wave of his long sleeves, a cow suddenly appeared on the ring, and then he held a wine jar in his hand. Everyone watched helplessly, and the cow got into the wine jar driven by him.

"Oh my god." "The cow...the cow has gone into the jar." The audience exclaimed for a while.

Taoist Xianyun handed the wine jar to an audience member. The jar was heavy, and when he poured it into the bowl, the wine actually poured out.

Xia Jingsheng took advantage of the moment when everyone was grabbing the wine bowls, pointed at the person pouring the wine with a whip, and saw that the person's whole body trembled and he suddenly regained consciousness.

He looked down, only to find that there was no wine in the jar, it was obviously a jar of lively toads.

"Ah—" the man screamed in fright.

The wine jar fell to the ground, waking up a group of people. Everyone found that there was no wine in the robbed wine bowl, but it was full of ugly toads.

The lively crowd suddenly dispersed, pushing and shoving each other.

At this time, I don't know who screamed: "There is a tiger!"

Behind the crowd, stood a big tiger with hanging eyes and a white forehead. It was looking at everyone with a pair of evil eyes.

"Don't be afraid, just like before, this tiger must be bluffing people." "That's right!" Several courageous men took the initiative to walk towards the tiger.

But the tiger bit the arm of one of them with lightning speed.

"Ah—" When the screams exploded in their ears, everyone realized that this was a real tiger.

In an instant, everyone felt a sense of desperation that people are for knives and I am for fish.

At this moment, a big black snake appeared on the ring, and the timid people were so frightened that they fainted on the spot.

There is a poisonous snake in front and a tiger in the back, which can be called a dead end.

But unexpectedly, the snake did not crawl towards the crowd, but jumped over the crowd and attacked the man-eating tiger.

Everyone understands, this is also a part of the ring.

Only this time, very few applauded Taoist Xianyun, and more and more people applauded Xia Jingsheng.

The big snake was agile, and it went straight to the tiger's vitals, and bit the tiger's neck with one bite.

The tiger felt the pain and let go, and the person whose arm was bitten by it fell to the ground, saving his life.

The cheers reappeared, and the tiger shook its head from side to side, trying to throw the big snake out, but to no avail.

The venom had penetrated the tiger's skin and paralyzed its nerves.Not long after, the seemingly invincible colossus crashed down.

That Taoist Xianyun is so dirty, he even fired several hidden weapons, aiming at Xia Jingsheng's vitals.

Xia Jingsheng heard the movement, and walked nimbly to dodge the attack. Finally, the snake that completed its mission turned back into an inconspicuous whip.

The whip struck towards Taoist Xianyun as if it had some spirituality, Xia Jingsheng ordered: "Keep alive."

The whip bound that Taoist Xianyun extremely tightly as if he understood human words.

Taoist Xianyun suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground, rolling and struggling, but the more he struggled, the tighter the whip was bound.

Xia Jingsheng enumerated several major crimes committed by Taoist Xianyun—"Using illusions to confuse people's hearts."

The crowd below were passionate and shouted loudly: "Demon Dao, get out of Jiangcheng!"

Xia Jingsheng looked coldly at Taoist Xianyun: "Do you still remember what you promised me? If you lose, get the hell out of Purple Cloud Temple immediately!"

Amidst the scolding of the crowd, Taoist Xianyun nodded his head in embarrassment.

The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, and Xia Jingsheng heard the cry of a child not far away.

A girl curled up in her mother's arms, crying incessantly as if frightened.

Xia Jingsheng walked up to the girl, took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve, raised his hand, and the handkerchief turned into a smart little rabbit with its ears up, lying obediently in Xia Jingsheng's palm.

The girl's eyes widened, she forgot to cry, and looked like she wanted to reach out but didn't dare.

"Don't be afraid, it doesn't bite, just feel it." Xia Jingsheng said softly.

Hearing this, the girl touched the fur of the rabbit carefully. The soft rabbit soothed the girl's emotions very well. After a while, she giggled.

Xia Jingsheng heaved a sigh of relief, and lifted the restraint on Taoist Xianyun: "Get lost."

At this point, Taoist Xianyun had no choice but to stumble away, unable to bargain any more.

Ah Bao said from the side: "Just let him go so easily?"

Xia Jingsheng glanced at Taoist Xianyun's staggering back: "He is an alchemist, and he will be punished by heaven for committing such a crime. It's not that he will not report it, it's just that the time has not come."

Ah Bao half-understood: "Then young master, shall we go back now?"

Xia Jingsheng waved his hand: "Go to the cemetery."

Sitting in the car going to the cemetery, Xia Jingsheng recalled the scene of going to the cemetery with Sun Wenxi.

At that time, he never imagined that one day, the relationship between him and Sun Wenxi would come to this point.

In the past few days, Sun Wenxi kept calling Xia's house, but Xia Jingsheng refused them all.

Ling Xiaozi's words were like a spell, lingering in his heart, and would come out from time to time to disrupt the situation.

Xia Jingsheng didn't want to bring bad luck to Sun Wenxi. If all the good things were destined to disappear, it would be better for him to cut them off with his own hands and let them stay in a certain extremely beautiful moment forever.

"Master, the cemetery is here." Ah Bao's voice interrupted Xia Jingsheng's thoughts.

Xia Jingsheng walked to the tomb and gently wiped the dust on the tombstone.

The woman in the photo smiled softly and peacefully, that was his mother.

"Mother, my son came to see you." Xia Jingsheng said softly, "How are you lately, many things have happened these days, I'm a little tired."

"Mother, I've never heard you talk about you and your father before, and I don't know how you got together. With your soft temper, how can you bear your father's impatient temper?"

"Mom, I have someone I like in my heart, but I can't be with him. Master said, I'm destined not to be married."

Just as he was talking, a golden butterfly flew in the air and landed gracefully on the side of the tombstone.

"It is said that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai both turned into butterflies after death, mother, will you also turn into a beautiful butterfly?"

As soon as the words fell, the butterfly landed on his shoulder, flapping its wings lightly and delicately.

"It seems that he can understand what I say." Xia Jingsheng smiled.

He spread his hands and said with a smile: "If you really understand, then tell me, in this life, if you have the chance to be with Wen Xi, it will fall on your left hand, and if you don't, it will fall on your right hand."

After a while, the butterfly still landed on Xia Jingsheng's shoulder without any movement.

Xia Jingsheng chuckled, "I thought you could understand what I was thinking."

Just as he finished speaking, the butterfly actually landed on the palm of his left hand.

Left hand, that is predestined relationship.

Xia Jingsheng was stunned for a moment, looking at the butterfly in his palm in surprise.

Inexplicably, there was a gleam of joy in his heart, and his mood was not as heavy as when he came.

"Mother, who are you?" Xia Jingsheng stroked the tombstone, "Why is the information recorded in the book of life and death completely different from what I heard in the past? Why is the cause of death not a car accident but unknown?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth and never let you be wronged for nothing."

In the cemetery, every minute and every second passed very quickly, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Xia Jingsheng looked at the photo on the tombstone reluctantly, and said softly: "Mother, I should go, I will see you next time."

What he didn't know was that the Xia family was waiting in full force at this moment.

People from the Sun family formally came to propose marriage. When the matchmaker came in, she congratulated Xia Gongcheng with a happy face.

"Congratulations to Master Xia, congratulations to Master Xia, the Sun family asked me to come to propose marriage."

Xia Gongcheng looked confused, hesitantly said: "The Sun family, which Sun family?"

"Which other Sun's family can there be? Of course it's the Sun's family of Baohui Bank." The matchmaker raised her handkerchief, smelling of incense powder.

"I never heard that the Sun family has a daughter." Xia Gongcheng's expression changed.

"That's right, the Sun family doesn't have a daughter, but Young Master Sun and Young Master Xia are a match made in heaven."

Xia Gongcheng said angrily: "It's nonsense, Sun Wenxi is a man, and Jing Sheng is also a man, Yin and Yang are not compatible, how can there be a match made in heaven!"

The matchmaker took a large sum of money from the Sun family and patted her chest in front of Sun Qiman to promise to complete the task, how could she give up so easily at this moment.

She put on a smiling face and persuaded: "Master Xia, this is a new era, and we can no longer look at things with the same old ideas. Although Young Master Sun and Young Master Xia are both men, they still have the freedom to fall in love."

"Ridiculous! I will never agree to this marriage!" Xia Gongcheng refused to enter.

When Xia Jingsheng returned home, what he saw was a tense atmosphere. Xia Gongcheng sat at the top with a cold face, and the matchmaker sat at the bottom fanning the wind boredly.

Seeing Xia Jingsheng, the matchmaker immediately came up to meet her and said with a smile, "Eldest young master, congratulations, I'm here to propose marriage for the Sun family."

Xia Jingsheng's heart was shaken, he was estranged from Sun Wenxi on this side, but the Sun's family was asking someone to propose marriage on the other side.

Subconsciously, Xia Jingsheng looked at Sun Qiman, seeing that his face was as black as charcoal, he relaxed a little.

The matchmaker saw that Xia Jingsheng's face was not happy, and she felt something wrong, so she forced a smile and asked, "Young Master, you can also help persuade him, Master Xia doesn't want to nod."

Xia Jingsheng and Xia Gongcheng met each other's eyes and remained silent for a long time.

Xia Gongcheng's face was extremely ugly: "For the matter of in-laws, the orders of parents must not be violated. I do not agree with this marriage, please go back."

The matchmaker gritted her teeth and was about to get up when she suddenly heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

"Slow down, don't rush away."

The matchmaker looked up and saw a woman in a splendid cheongsam.Presumably she must be the only concubine of the Xia family at present. The Xia family has lost the head of the house, and the concubine has given birth to a son. At least in appearance, she is considered to be half the mistress.

The matchmaker became enthusiastic again in an instant: "Hey, isn't this Mrs. Xia?"

This sentence ma'am was beyond the limit, but it made Aunt Xia's heart burst into joy, and she even became more enthusiastic with her attitude.

"What's the matter, everyone's faces are so ugly?" Xia Jingrui's condition has improved, just in time for Aunt Xia to be in a good mood.

"Ma'am, I came to propose marriage on behalf of the Sun family, but look at this..." The matchmaker's eyes flashed, with a helpless expression on her face.

"Oh, don't worry, just sit down first, and I'll have a few words with the master."

Saying that, Aunt Xia whispered a few words to Xia Gongcheng, and the two of them walked behind hand in hand.

Xia Gongcheng was still angry, and he brushed Aunt Xia's hand away: "What's the matter, you have to avoid talking about it!"

Aunt Xia knew that he was soft and not hard, so she just softened her voice and said: "Master, the Sun family has a great career, and it's the right time to mention this family now."
