Chapter 58 Entrustment

  With a kick, the knife that Big Brother had dropped to the ground was sent flying back up and killed Huang Mao. The man finally turned around, and with the dim light in the room, we were finally able to see clearly - this person who roamed the darkness, righting wrongs, and had just eliminated several extremely evil kidnappers, was actually our 10-year-old Leng Bing Han!

  The leader was the only one who saw his true face, no wonder he was so shocked and desperate. A ten-year-old boy who was originally kidnapped by himself turned out to be a ruthless killer who could kill without blinking, now that this secret had been revealed to him, would he still let himself live?

  He died, but at least he was a smart ghost. Compared to Huang Mao and Knife Scar who died without knowing what happened, it's much better. Only Ah Long looked relatively simple-minded, Cold Ice left him a way out, just knocking him unconscious, and before he fainted, he didn't see his true face either.

  Of course, all of this has already exceeded his icy expectations. He had originally planned to take care of the situation before his family found out and then return home in time so as not to worry them. Later, when he heard from Big Brother that there were police everywhere and even the troops had been deployed for the transfer, he knew that his parents must have already found out about his kidnapping, which is why such a big fuss was being made. His dad and mom must be worried to death now.

  Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to find out about it immediately, and with a burst of energy, he rushed back home as soon as possible, so that his family wouldn't be worried.

  It's been two or three hours since I was kidnapped, and Leng Bing has been patiently observing the situation with a calm mind. However, after listening carefully for half a day, he hasn't heard anything valuable, but instead feels increasingly angry. The leader, Da Ge, Huang Mao, and Dao Ba are all vicious people, guilty of heinous crimes. The mother and daughter who own the house they're currently in were brutally raped by Huang Mao and then mercilessly killed by Dao Ba. It's clear that they're ruthless and venomous habitual offenders.

  This made the cold, icy heart that had been frozen for nearly 40 years suddenly surge with a desire to kill, especially when thinking of a ten-year-old girl who should be surrounded by her parents, enjoying a happy and joyful childhood, and should have a beautiful and bright future like a flower. But because they wanted to kidnap themselves and find a hiding place, they encountered such a tragic fate, and the flower withered. The cold, icy heart suddenly burst forth with nameless anger and intense indignation, even the breath exhaled carried a scorching air.

  He originally only wanted to find out some information he wanted to know, and then let the police catch them through other means. He didn't want to expose his own strength, letting everyone know that a ten-year-old kid subdued four robbers, it's glorious but also too shocking.

  He had finally managed to keep a low profile for several years and did not want to become the focus of attention again, so at first he did not intend to take action.

  But now, he has changed his mind and handed them over to the police. It seems that it would be difficult to get ironclad evidence to sentence them to death. He is not willing to let them off easy, he wants to uphold justice.

  This idea sprouted in his heart like a spring bamboo shoot after the rain, and soon spread throughout his entire mind. He didn't notice at all how he, who had always been law-abiding, could suddenly have such a crazy idea - was it because of his strong abilities that he could ignore the boundaries and constraints of the law?

  Even he himself didn't expect that in the moment when his anger ignited, he was as if assisted by a god, not only without any tension, but also with a clear and empty mind. In an instant, it seemed like his body had a spiritual quality, as if just thinking about something would make his body cooperate to do it, and sometimes even without thinking, it was like an instinctive reaction, done effortlessly, the movements were smooth and natural, as if he was a seasoned veteran of the battlefield, killing with ease and precision.

  At this moment, Leng Bing Han felt a little frightened, but the fright was not because he had killed someone for the first time. Until now, he didn't have the expected fear, horror, or even nausea and vomiting feeling. On the contrary, he felt extremely excited, his pulse racing, his whole body boiling with hot blood, except for his rapid breathing and accelerated heartbeat. Perhaps what the Buddha said was right, for some people, killing one person is better than saving countless people.

  What made him feel even more terrified was whether he had a hidden psychology of being bloodthirsty in his subconscious. Otherwise, how could his killing skills be so proficient, completely not like the first time he killed someone, and still feeling excited after killing.

  I'm getting increasingly worried that as I become more and more capable, I might start to disregard human life and the rules of law, eventually turning into a bloodthirsty demon.

  But these worries are also hidden in the heart, after all, things have happened, thinking so much is useless, just pay more attention next time.

  After dealing with the four people, Leng Bingxue checked around and felt that there should be no remaining clues. Only then did he sit down at the table in the center of the house, casually picked up a few things that the four people hadn't touched, and started eating them in big mouthfuls. After all that commotion, he was hungry too.

  He swallowed hard and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, he quickly turned around to see a mother and daughter standing several meters behind him, holding hands. Due to the dim light or distance, their faces were somewhat blurry and unclear, but both of them seemed to be filled with sorrow, yet mixed with a hint of joy.

  A chill ran down her spine as she sensed the eerie aura surrounding the two figures, and she knew they were not human but ghosts. They must be the vengeful spirits of the former occupants who died in this house.

  This is the second time he has seen a ghost since his rebirth. Since Grandpa passed away when he was three years old, he had only seen one yin messenger until now, and in these seven years, he really hadn't seen any other ghosts.

  Those who don't know the truth may be afraid of ghosts, but for Leng Bing Xue, ghosts are the most pitiful and also the easiest to deal with.

  When ordinary people die, they will be escorted to the underworld by ghost messengers in a timely manner. It is almost impossible for ghosts to linger in the world of the living, which is also why ordinary people have never seen ghosts.

  But how can these two mother and daughter still be stuck here? Leng Bing Han also felt very puzzled.

  He stood up and walked a few steps forward, asking kindly: "Are you looking for me? What's the matter?" The two mother and daughter had suffered misfortune, thinking about it was unbearable, after all, there were their own reasons, Leng Bing Han felt somewhat guilty and ashamed.

  Jian Leng took a few steps forward, and the mother-daughter duo hastily retreated several steps back.

  It is said that humans are afraid of ghosts for three parts, and ghosts are afraid of humans for seven parts. Under normal circumstances, the innate yang energy on a person's body will dissolve the ghost's soul upon contact, just like fire being extinguished by water. Therefore, ghosts are generally afraid of humans. Of course, there are exceptions - if the fire is too big and the water is too small, not only can't it put out the fire, but it will also make the fire burn even bigger.

  So, except in extremely special cases, ghosts dare not come to find people, let alone take revenge.

  So-called vengeful spirits harming people are either fabricated out of thin air or arise from coincidences, and the probability of such occurrences is perhaps a hundred times more difficult than winning the lottery jackpot.

  After retreating a few steps, the mother and daughter both knelt down to Liang Bing, piously lowering their heads to the ground. The mother then spoke with great gratitude: "Thank you, sir, for helping us avenge our grievances. Your kindness is as boundless as the heavens, we can only repay it in the next life."

  Leng Bing was just about to step forward to help them up, but after taking two steps forward, he noticed that the two were somewhat frightened and only then reacted, stopping in his tracks. He hastily waved his hand and said: "You quickly get up, don't be like this. This matter itself is because of me, I've harmed you. Is there anything else you wish for? I will definitely help you achieve it."

  "Master, please don't say that, it's all fate, our fate." The mother tearfully said: "We don't blame you, we don't blame you. Our great revenge has been avenged. Now my only wish is for my eldest daughter, Xiaowei, who has been living with her grandmother and escaped this disaster. Her father died early, and I raised them all by myself. Now that I'm gone, she'll be all alone, so I hope to entrust Xiaowei to you, please take care of her and let her grow up healthy..."

  How pitiful is the heart of parents all over the world! It has come to this point that mothers cannot let go of their own children.

  "My heart is cold and I'm deeply grieved. Choking back tears, I replied: 'Auntie, please don't worry, I'll take care of Xiaowei like my own sister, making sure she has no worries about food or clothing, and grows up happy and healthy.'"

  When she saw Leng Bing's agreement, her mother was overjoyed, wiping away tears and saying: "Now little Wei has met a noble person, I'm really grateful to you, sir."

  Just then, two ghostly envoys with serious expressions suddenly appeared beside the mother and daughter. The older one said to them, "Alright, now you've avenged your hatred and fulfilled your wishes, it's time to go."

  "Yes!" said the mother. "Thank you, God, for showing mercy and giving us a two-day extension. Now we have no more regrets and can leave." With that, she followed the two underworld envoys to depart.

  "Wait!" Just then, Leng Bing called out to them.

  "Huh, you can see us?" The younger yin spirit seemed greatly surprised, took a cold and icy glance, then scolded: "Yin spirits on duty, how dare you interfere? If you say one more word, I'll take you back with me!"

  He hadn't even finished his boasting when the slightly older yin servant hastily pulled him behind himself and stepped forward, bowing respectfully to Leng Bing Xue: "Young Master Leng, please forgive him! He's new and doesn't understand anything, don't bother with him. Is there anything we can do for you? Please give us your orders."

  That expression not only made the two women on the side amazed, but also another yin messenger was inexplicably surprised. Although they were just the lowest-ranking yin messengers in the yin government office, they had the mission of guiding the dead souls and had great power in the yang world, and were not ordinary people who could be compared to. When had they ever seen their companions being so polite to someone?

  "Do you know me?" asked Leng Bing Han with some curiosity.

  "Yes, when you were in the underworld, I was fortunate enough to witness your majestic appearance with Baili Changjin." The yin messenger replied diligently.

  After listening to Yin Cha's words, Leng Bing Han immediately understood. Having seen him and Bai Wu Chang together before, being quite intimate, these little Yin Cha naturally didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

  "What's your surname, brother?" Cold Ice Han responded to Yin Cha's politeness with an extremely calm and composed demeanor, even a hint of being at ease, but his words were still very courteous, never wanting to use his power to bully others.

  "I don't dare trouble you with my humble name, I am surnamed He."

  "Ah, it's actually He Dage!"

  "Ah, young master has killed a small man, and this small man cannot bear the title." The yin servant was somewhat frightened.

  "Hehe, don't be polite, besides, you're definitely older than me, calling you big brother isn't excessive." Cold Ice waved his hand, although young in age, but with an air of authority, he said solemnly: "Big Brother He, these two have a deep connection with me, and this calamity they've encountered is also all because of me. I hope that along the way, you can take extra care of them. Even after we arrive at the underworld, please try to help them out as much as possible. If there's anything that exceeds your authority, please ask Big Brother He to speak with White No-Constant Big Brother about it, I'm sure he'll give me some face."

  Upon hearing this, the surnamed He's ghostly assistant revealed an expression of gratitude and tears. This made the expressions on the faces of the other ghostly assistants in the house and the two mother-daughter duo even more colorful. Who has ever been troubled by someone else helping them, only to have that person be grateful instead?

  They didn't understand that Hei's dark and cold heart was as clear as a mirror: this was Cold Ice creating an opportunity for himself to get close to Bai Wuchang, while also saving his own face.

  In many places, the underworld is not much different from the world of the living, with strict hierarchical levels. As a small and insignificant yin spirit like him, he lives at the very bottom of the underworld bureaucracy, where would he have the opportunity to come into contact with high-ranking officials like Bai Wuchang? This time, thanks to Leng Bingxue's creation, he had an opportunity that others could only dream of, a chance to show his face, and his heart was already filled with joy.

  This is perhaps the experience advantage of an old hand, without many years of struggling in this circle, there are many things that are difficult to understand intuitively.

  "Gentlemen, please be at ease. The Xu mother and daughter being able to receive your attention is truly a blessing accumulated over eight lifetimes! In the next life, they will surely have wealth and honor filling their halls, with healthy and peaceful bodies." Mr. He's eyes were filled with emotion as he looked at the two women. If not for the promise he had received from Cold Ice earlier, he would definitely be feeling jealous and envious. But now, all he felt was a simple wish.

  With this cold and icy revelation, I believe that the fate of these two mother-daughter in the underworld or even in their next life will undergo a drastic change.

  Although the two women didn't know what identity Cold Ice Han was, seeing that even Yin Cha treated him with such respect, they couldn't help but feel a few more points of joy. The more capable and fierce he was, the safer and more at ease Little Wei would be entrusting him, and her life would also become happier.

  Now he heard that the yin messenger would take care of his mother and daughter, and his heart was even more excited. His mother and daughter had already died, and it was inevitable to go to the underworld, but what would they encounter in the underworld? They still had lingering fears in their hearts and were worried about this. Now with the care and preferential treatment of the yin messenger, everything would be much better, and naturally they were not so afraid anymore.

  "Thank you, Master En, thank you, Master En." The mother pulled her daughter and the two of them knelt down to Cold Ice again.

  "Hurry up, hurry up." Leng Bing said hastily: "These are all trivial things, far from enough to make up for what you've been through. I think it's getting late, so let's get going."

  The mother and daughter bowed their heads again, then stood up, intending to turn around and leave with the two yin messengers. Just as they took two steps, the mother turned her head back to Leng Bing Han and said: "Sir, I just remembered that there's a box buried under the ancestral altar at home. According to the elderly, it contains treasures passed down from our ancestors. Even when we were extremely poor, we didn't dare sell them. Now that my family is destroyed, keeping them would be useless, so I'll give them to you instead. Whether they're valuable or not, I don't know; consider it a token of goodwill. Please, sir, don't decline."

  Looking at her expectant eyes, Leng Bing thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll help Xiangxi collect it first, and then give it to Xiangxi as a keepsake later."

  Her mother smiled slightly, seemingly very happy, and pulled her daughter to Yin Cha's side.

  "If the young master has no other instructions, may we withdraw?"

  Leng Bing smiled coldly and said, "Nothing else, you've seen Bai Wuchang, help me tell him that when he has time, he can come find me to play. Don't say it, but after not seeing each other for several years, I really do miss him a bit."

  "The little one will definitely pass on the message to the young master." The surname He's secret agent nodded and bid farewell, then instantly disappeared from Leng Bingxue's line of sight along with the two mother-daughter duo.

  Looking at the place where they disappeared, Leng Bingxue let out a soft sigh. Although he had done his best to do many things, in his heart, he still couldn't make up for the harm this matter had caused to the mother and daughter. After all, they were already dead, and even if Leng Bingxue was capable of anything, he couldn't bring them back to life and let them live again.

  The deceased is gone, but I'll find Xiaowei and take good care of her from now on. Consider it as compensation, and also fulfill her mother's last wish.
