Chapter 106: When in doubt, play dead

Lin Du lowered his eyes and spat out another mouthful of blood. He turned into Xia Tian Wu Huai and fainted, and tugged at Grandma Ma's sleeve.

When you are undecided, just pretend to be dead.

Granny Ma: ...

She resigned herself to Lin Du's instructions and closed her eyes while talking nonsense, "Wan Xia, what you are looking for now is no longer the incarnation of the Moon Goddess. The Moon Goddess only lent her her body. Now she can't bear the power and has passed out."

Mo Lin seemed to want to say something but stopped himself and finally did not open his mouth.

Wan Xia looked regretful, "I thought... the Moon Goddess was here to pick me up."

Tao Xian couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Silly girl, if you are really taken away by the Moon Goddess, your soul will be gone forever."

Don't think it's a good thing just because someone is good-looking! The more good-looking someone is, the more likely they are to deceive.

The girl's gaze fell on Lin Du's pale face which was still stained with blood. The whiter the person, the more prominent the color. At this moment, he was lying on his side with his eyes closed, his hair was tangled and messy, his eyelashes were dark, and his lips were stained with a little red. He looked like a ghost.

Not to mention the girl, Tao Xian's heart also trembled - he was frightened.

Granny Ma was forced to take out another four-wheeled vehicle, but this one was much more exquisite than the one Tao Xian had on, and it even had animal patterns carved on it.

Tao Xian looked at the four-wheeler dimly, "Why is hers so high-end?"

Granny Ma looked back at Tao Xian's simple four-wheeled cart made of wooden boards, the burrs on it had not even been smoothed off.

"Because she is young."

"But I'm almost dying!"

Tao Xian actually lost his temper.

Lin Du was still pretending to be dead until they walked out of the village and walked a certain distance. She hadn't spoken a word yet, and Tao Xian started to panic.

"No, little Taoist priest? Are you still pretending? We have walked two miles away, and no one can catch up with us."

"Master Lin? No, I was just complaining. I didn't say I wanted your four-wheeler."

Granny Ma was annoyed by his noise and said, "She's fine, she just fell asleep."

Tao Xian: ...?

"How does she sleep at her age?"

Xia Tianwu took his pulse and said, "He passed out from exhaustion. He set up two large formations in one day. His mind was severely overdrawn. It's good that he can hold on until now."

The blood he vomited just now was real. The spiritual energy shock to his heart was not small. If it weren't for the effect of the medicine, I'm afraid that my junior master's heart would have ruptured and he would have vomited more than three liters of blood.

The road from Qinglu Village to Phoenix City is hardly a road. It is full of grass and trees and is extremely bumpy. Xia Tianwu wanted to use the flying boat several times, but thinking that Granny Ma seemed to prefer walking, he gave up.

Tao Xian felt like his bones were about to fall apart after such a bumpy ride, but Lin Du didn't wake up at all.

Mo Lin always thought that his junior master might have fallen into a deep sleep, so he took a few steps to check it out.

Granny Ma never thought she was weird before, but now she felt a little embarrassed when it was time to go into the city.

There were two people on the four-wheeled vehicles who looked half dead, and there were two righteous disciples on the left and right who acted like guardians. She didn't want to join this team.

So Granny Ma walked into the city gate before them, and none of the guards dared to stop her.

The strange foursome at the back were stopped by the guards and asked what they were doing there.

Mo Lin pointed at Granny Ma, who had an exceptionally upright face and big eyes full of righteousness, "We all follow Granny Ma."

The guard took one look at Granny Ma who was walking on her own, and then at the two half-dead people on the four-wheeled cart. Thinking of Granny Ma's identity, he felt that it was reasonable, so he put down his knife and signaled them to go directly into the city.

The group arrived at the courtyard covered by spiritual vines. When the gate opened, they saw a man sitting quietly inside the courtyard, with two maids with sweet smiles standing beside him, drinking tea quietly.

If Granny Ma hadn't been sure that this was her own yard, she would have thought she had walked into the wrong house.

The man took a sip of tea leisurely without looking up. "You're back?"

Mo Lin and Xia Tianwu raised their hands and saluted, "Hello, Seventh Uncle."

The woman had her hair tied up in a high bun, and was wearing a blue shirt and a moon-shaped skirt. The badge on her waist was very heavy; it was indeed the identity badge of the Supreme Sect. Her thin eyelids were neat and dignified, and her eyes conveyed a calm and intimidating look.

"I received your sound transmission note yesterday when I was having dinner." Feng Yi put down her teacup and stood up, the exaggerated earrings on her ears still intact. She then raised her hands respectfully and saluted to Granny Ma.

"I am Feng Yi, the 99th generation disciple of the Supreme Sect. I have met Granny Ma and would like to thank you for your kindness in saving my younger generation from the brink of death. I have prepared some small gifts for you, and I hope you will accept them."

She was tall and thin, standing there like a cold sword drawn from its sheath. Her posture and words were respectful, but no one thought she was respectful.

Feng Yi had an air of grace and dignity that looked down upon everyone. He did not seem to be begging for thanks, but rather like some noble person who was receiving a reward.

Granny Ma suddenly felt a little tired.

The other sects have trained their disciples to look like pine and bamboo forests. Although it is boring, it does not cause any complications that people cannot cope with. The Supreme Sect is like a nest of gaudy flowers growing in a mess. You never know what strange things they will come up with in the next moment.

If you say they are all rare species, that's true, but the way they bloom is a bit weird.

"I have already asked for their reward and will not accept any more gifts," said Granny Ma.

Feng Yi held a box in her hand. "It's just a small gift. It's not a sign of respect. Mother-in-law will know it at a glance."

Granny Ma didn't want to accept it at first, but she saw Feng Yi slowly opening the box in her hand.

She was stunned for a moment, and looked at Feng Yi deeply, "The disciples of the Supreme Sect are really capable people."

The God's Red Pearl is indeed a treasure that the Corpse King cannot refuse.

The jade bead in the mouth of the god's remains may seem a little unethical to other cultivators, but it is just right for the people from the Supreme Sect.

No matter which cultivator breaks into the ancient god's palace, it is difficult for him to think of touching the body.

However, the bandit nature of the disciples of the Supreme Sect was well-known for their ruthless nature of pluck the feathers of passing geese and leaving the skins of fleeing beasts. Even the Ancient God's Mansion was no exception.

Granny Ma was finally convinced.

She took the box and forgave Feng Yi for taking over her place and commanding his corpse puppet to make tea for her.

Feng Yi turned and walked towards the four-wheeled vehicle, scanned the two people with sharp eyes, and finally stood in front of Lin Du accurately.

"Is this the child from our sect who was poisoned by the snake? God has mercy on him, how come he is so thin?"

Mo Lin, who was standing next to him, was silent for a moment, "Seventh Master, that's not it."

Feng Yi immediately withdrew her hand that was about to touch Lin Du's face, and met Tao Xian's gaze with difficulty, "What a good child! I remember he was very handsome when he entered the sect. How come he has become ugly now?"

Tao Xian: ...Okay, stop talking.

Mo Lin cleared his throat and spoke, "Seventh Master, I'm here. That's Tao Xian, a disciple of Feixing Sect."

Feng Yi then turned his gaze towards Mo Lin, "Ah, Mo Lin, you've grown so big now. When you were a child, your father brought you into the sect. You were so tiny. Your uncle also held you in his arms. Do you remember me?"

Of course Mo Lin remembered, but Feng Yi obviously didn't remember him at all.

It was obvious that they had met each other when they grew up. He vaguely remembered that the headmaster told him before he left that your seventh uncle was a little casual about details. I guess this was the reason.

"Aren't you poisoned by a snake? What about this little thing?"

Feng Yi shifted his gaze to Lin Du, "He's quite good-looking. You can tell at first glance that he's from our Supreme Sect."

"We were attacked by men in white robes last night and asked for help from our Seventh Uncle, but he didn't come in time, so Junior Uncle became mentally exhausted and fell into a coma." Mo Lin spoke honestly.

Feng Yi still had that graceful look on his face, but his eyes were looking elsewhere without a sound. "When I received the transfer order from the head of the sect, I thought I was in southern Yunnan."

“But actually, I’m in southern Guangdong.”

Mo Lin was silent for a moment, "So..."

"So I really rushed here overnight, but it was difficult to ask for directions at night, so I went through several cities before I found Phoenix City. After dawn, I received your second message, saying that it was Granny Ma's courtyard in Phoenix City, so I came here first."

"Thank you for the hard work of traveling thousands of miles at night." Mo Lin bowed again silently.

It was obvious that this uncle-master was not good at finding her way. She received the sound transmission note in the middle of the night and must have gone the wrong way for more than a little bit.
