Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 1763 - 1763: Moral Screening

Seeing that the man couldn't enter the passage, Handsome Fatty Wang immediately perked up, stood at the entrance with hands on his hips, and said, "Come, come, come, I'm waiting for you here. Come play a life-and-death game with me.""**** you, you bastard!" The man was blocked outside the entrance, his rage had nowhere to go, only making him tremble in anger. Pointing his dagger at Handsome Fatty Wang, he yelled furiously, "Damn fatso, I have no grudges against you, why the hell are you hitting me!"

"Damn, hitting you is considered light!" Handsome Fatty Wang said, "Fat Lord hates unfilial children the most in this lifetime. You motherfucker, wretched creature, you dare hit your parents, I didn't kill you, consider that a mercy. You dare shout, believe it or not, Fat Lord will kill you, you turtle bastard!"

Originally, everyone was puzzled about why Handsome Fatty Wang suddenly wanted to beat up this man, thinking he had some personal vendetta. Now, listening to Handsome Fatty Wang, everyone realized he hated him for being unfilial to his parents.

However, what Handsome Fatty Wang said did indeed gain a lot of approval. Although this man was a subordinate of Nine-Fingers Wu Yong, the people around Wu Yong all looked at him with disapproval. After all, in life, respect starts from filial piety. Parents are paramount, disrespect is unfilial. And this man actually hit his parents, such behavior, everyone despises him.

"Whether I'm filial or not is none of your damn business, bastard. You dare hit me, I'll kill you!" The man shouted loudly at the entrance, but he couldn't enter at all, having no way out.

"Come, come, come, kill Fat Lord, I dare you." Handsome Fatty Wang flaunted himself inside, utterly proud. This guy hid inside the passage, and the man couldn't get in, making it exceedingly safe.

"Just you wait! Just you wait! I don't believe you can stay there forever. I'll be right here waiting, as soon as you come out, I'll kill you immediately!" The man waved his dagger arrogantly and cursed, "Once you come out, I'll chop you into fragments and feed you to the dogs!"

Ye Qing was standing nearby, after hearing the man's unfilial actions, he also wanted to beat him up; Handsome Fatty Wang beat him to it, making Ye Qing feel even more favorably towards him. Now hearing the man curse like that ignited Ye Qing's anger too. He suddenly walked over, grabbed the man by the neck, lifted him up forcibly, and threw him out.

With Ye Qing's current strength, he flung the man like a toy, and he crashed into the wall behind, slowly sliding down the stone wall. This hit was quite severe, bleeding from his nose and mouth, staggering, struggling to even stand up.

"What are you doing?" Nine-Fingers Wu Yong frowned, after all, this was his subordinate, and with Ye Qing beating him, he wouldn't be able to face it gracefully.

"Get lost!" Ye Qing shouted coldly, unsure if he said it to Nine-Fingers Wu Yong or to the man. However, his voice was very loud, startling everyone present.

Nine-Fingers Wu Yong opened his mouth, but in the end, didn't say anything. There's no help for it, considering Ye Qing's strength was the strongest.

The man slowly climbed up from the ground, glanced at Ye Qing in panic, and really didn't dare to speak anymore, hurriedly left through a side passage. He wasn't afraid of Handsome Fatty Wang, but that didn't mean he wasn't afraid of Ye Qing, because killing him for Ye Qing is like squashing an ant.

After the man ran off, the remaining people didn't hesitate and entered through the leftmost passage to continue forward. They walked about two hundred meters before Nine-Fingers Wu Yong said in a low voice, "There's another fork ahead, but will there be restrictions this time?"

Everyone furrowed their brows tightly, worry evident on their faces. The previous three-way fork already showed that the entry paths have filtering functions. If one cannot enter, it would really be a huge embarrassment.

Sure enough, turning the corner ahead, another two-way fork appeared.

"The path on the right is marked." Nine-Fingers Wu Yong looked at the right fork, then at everyone around him, although he didn't say anything, his expression explained it all. This fork will definitely block some people.

"There's an old saying, live a clear conscience life, and fear no ghosts knocking at night!" Handsome Fatty Wang walked at the front, chest out confidently, saying, "Let the international moral imitators, the spiritual role models of modern people, the public morality known to the world public, let Fat Lord walk through first to show you."

Handsome Fatty Wang entered the right fork with his head held high, unimpeded. This made him even more smug, turning back to look at everyone, he said, "How's that? Isn't Fat Lord's moral quality very high?"

No one answered his question, Nine-Fingers Wu Yong's subordinates slowly walked over, like undergoing inspection, cautiously walked toward the passage. Every person entering took a deep breath, as if passing a test, feeling much relieved.

Altogether seven people went in before the eighth person, when suddenly the situation changed, the eighth person was blocked outside. The same as earlier, as if an invisible wall appeared, and a large inscription emerged on the top of the stone wall—Grave-Digging Not Allowed!

"Grave-Digging Not Allowed?" Everyone looked at the eighth person, he looked very embarrassed, quickly turned into the other passage, not even waiting for questions from others.

"He divorced his previous wife, apparently she had three kids with him that he never raised." A man said softly.

"Not nurturing means not nurturing your own child, not letting them in?" another person asked curiously.

"That's probably what it means."

"This crossroads is really strange, who knows what situation we might encounter as we go on."

"A person who doesn't do unjust deeds has no fear of ghosts knocking at midnight. Those who don't honor their parents or nurture their own children aren't truly human!"

The crowd whispered among themselves. The person couldn't enter, but no one sympathized with him. This crossroads feels more like a judgment seat, judging people's sins. So, as everyone walks through this crossroads, they are more worried, because it's really a test of one's conscience.

They continued onward, passing five more crossroads, each one eliminating at least one person. In the end, only Ye Qing, Handsome Fatty Wang, and Nine-Fingers Wu Yong were still advancing. As they moved forward, who knows what awaited them.

"Old Nine Wu, who would've thought, your morality could actually rival mine," Handsome Fatty Wang gave Nine-Fingers Wu Yong a sideways glance, with a look of disbelief that made you want to punch him.

Nine-Fingers Wu Yong coughed lightly and said in a low voice, "Fat Wang, seeing you reach this far surprises me too."

Handsome Fatty Wang said, "What are you talking about? Me, Fat Lord, as a moral exemplar, I can walk anywhere without hindrance. But you should be careful, you've done quite a few shady deeds, haven't you."

"Stop talking nonsense. Let's see who'll make it past the next crossroads," Nine-Fingers Wu Yong replied coldly, unwilling to tangle with Handsome Fatty Wang.

"Alright, let's talk facts then!" Handsome Fatty Wang walked forward proudly; going through this many crossroads had made him quite smug.

Ye Qing looked at the two, feeling more surprised. Ye Qing didn't know much about Nine-Fingers Wu Yong, but he was familiar with Handsome Fatty Wang. This guy was exceedingly sleazy; Ye Qing really couldn't believe he's come this far in the passage. It's truly odd. Could Handsome Fatty Wang's moral character really be that high?

After walking another fifty meters, the three arrived at another crossroads. There were only two paths; the left one was marked on the map, the place they needed to enter.

"Alright, time to show off true charm!" Handsome Fatty Wang walked toward the left path confidently, saying, "Here, let Fat Lord show you what a true moral exemplar is!"

As soon as Handsome Fatty Wang finished talking, he reached the entrance, lifted his left foot, but it seemed to be blocked by something, unable to move forward at all.

"Huh?" Handsome Fatty Wang paused and reached out, but there was nothing in front of him. However, his hand seemed blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to extend further.

"Hahaha..." Nine-Fingers Wu Yong laughed, saying, "And this is a moral exemplar?"

Handsome Fatty Wang blushed, turned his head and said, "If you're so capable, then you try. I don't believe Fat Lord can't get through, and yet you can?"

"Fine, I'll try!" Nine-Fingers Wu Yong said without hesitation, walking straight ahead.

Handsome Fatty Wang stood nearby, watching him. When Nine-Fingers Wu Yong reached the entrance, his heart was in his throat. He talked bravely, but he was nervous. If Nine-Fingers Wu Yong made it through and he couldn't, he'd be utterly humiliated.

Nine-Fingers Wu Yong lifted his foot halfway at the entrance, but as with Handsome Fatty Wang, he couldn't move forward at all. The entrance seemed to hold an invisible wall blocking him.

"Hahaha..." Handsome Fatty Wang laughed heartily, relieved Nine-Fingers Wu Yong didn't get through. Seeing the situation, Handsome Fatty Wang felt comforted, satisfied that Nine-Fingers Wu Yong couldn't enter either.

"This..." Nine-Fingers Wu Yong scratched his head, moved back, wanting to understand why they couldn't enter.

Ye Qing stood behind them, observing clearly. As Handsome Fatty Wang got blocked, words began to shimmer on the stone wall, faintly visible. But once both Handsome Fatty Wang and Nine-Fingers Wu Yong were stopped, the stone wall finally revealed four large words—"Grave-Digging Not Allowed!"
