Chapter 98 Let Wei Zhi take the blame

Lin Du did not refuse. She could break the formation, but she was purely destructive. The vines stretched across the entire village and were almost the cornerstone. If she took action, she would only destroy the village.

And... Wei Zhi should take the blame for this.

Wei Zhi was about to raise his hand when he suddenly seemed to sense something and looked in one direction.

Under the moonlight, a hunchbacked old man suddenly appeared outside the barrier, looking at the mess on the ground and the two people standing in the middle with an unclear expression.

The tall monk was holding an ordinary-looking incense board in his hand, and the child next to him was a head shorter than him, and looked like he was being scolded.

The two of them looked over together, their eyes suddenly becoming sharp, like a thin layer of frost under a cold moon, revealing an unmistakable murderous intent no matter how they looked at it.

Lin Du was the first to laugh. She held a folding fan in one hand. A lot of spiritual energy had been poured into it, but there was still no sign of movement. It only glowed coldly under the moonlight. "Grandma Ma, the moonlight is not good tonight. What are you doing out here?"

The man gave Lin Du a neutral look and said, "You're in big trouble."

Lin Du was still smiling, like a naughty kid who was always smiling and playing. "Grandma, don't blame me. It was all the monk's fault. I came out after hearing the noise. Who knew I saw the monk blowing up the vine?"

Wei Zhi, who was standing there with a mouthful of black pot on his back for no reason, said: …

Fortunately, he has been blamed for many things, so this one is not a big deal.

Granny Ma took a steady look at Wei Zhi, sensing the man's profound cultivation. Without saying anything, she turned her gaze back to Lin Du, "You've been to my yard in Phoenix City. Now that you know something, how dare you approach me?"

Lin Du smiled and said, "Compared to that monk, I still prefer to be with someone like you who has a lot of hair. If I still have so much hair when I'm old and it's so beautiful, I'll wake up laughing in my dreams."

Wei Zhi had never realized that Lin Du was so rude before. He thought about it for a while and suddenly felt that it was not a bad idea for her to be Yan Ye's apprentice.

Yan Ye's white hair might even turn bald because of the anger he caused from that little disciple.

Granny Ma listened to Lin Du's glib words and smiled even more. "If I say that this vine is indeed related to me, but it's not mine, would you believe it?"

"Why don't you believe it?" Lin Du blinked his big eyes, which were particularly bright when he was looking at people normally. "You don't even need to explain it to me, because I need your help, and you explained it to me. You are really a living Bodhisattva."

Granny Ma glanced at Wei Zhi again. The man was wearing monk's robes and a bamboo hat, so it was hard to tell whether he was a real monk or not. However, Lin Du was a disciple of the Supreme Sect. The disciples of the Supreme Sect had different characteristics, but there wouldn't be one who was so rebellious as to wear a monk's robe.

"But I do think I know this person. He is someone I treated before."

A dark light suddenly flashed in Lin Du's eyes, "Really?"

"Five hundred years ago, I saved a man who massacred an entire village of Gu. I don't know why, but I saw something strange about him. His body was made from a piece of red willow branch, and it was on the verge of collapse."

Granny Ma smiled and said, "So I changed his body, using the spiritual vine from Gu Village."

The more Lin Du listened, the deeper the smile on his lips became. He lowered his eyes, and the spiritual power of the Floating Life Fan in his hand accumulated more and more.

Fortunately, although the Floating Life Fan lacks another companion spiritual treasure, it has been branded with Lin Du's spiritual imprint, so it belongs to Lin Du. Its fan surface reflects the life of the treasure's owner, so there is only frost and snow, and there is no problem in temporarily absorbing some spiritual power.

"So this spiritual vine is his true body?"

"No, it's a split body. I just didn't expect that he could actually cultivate a split body."

Lin Du said with an oddly excited voice, "Granny, what if I said that after he killed the Gu Master, he created more Gu Masters?"

Granny Ma seemed not to have heard clearly, or perhaps she had, but she asked again, "What did you say?"

Lin Du raised his eyes, his dark pupils flashing with a sly smile, "Among the outer disciples of Feixing Sect, there are quite a few Gu Masters just from what I know, and I even killed one myself."

"Does Grandma know that man's background?"

"I treat people regardless of their background. Only you righteous disciples will register honestly. After I cured him, I never saw him again." Granny Ma's face showed a rare coldness. "It was only later when I passed by this village on my way up the mountain that I discovered this spiritual vine in the village."

"The people in the village call this the Moonlight Vine and say that they are favored by the Moon Goddess."

As she spoke, she suddenly stretched out her hand, and a flower fell into her hand. "One morning, a child died. An unmarried girl, dressed neatly, died with a smile on her face. The people in the village said that it was the Moon God who came to take his bride away."

Granny Ma finished speaking, lowered her head and smiled, "There was no crying in the village, and some people were even smiling."

"So, that girl... is in your house now?" Lin Du stood in front of her, but his eyes did not fall on the flower, but on the eyes.

Granny Ma's eyes are not those of an old person. Although her eyelids are loose and drooping, she probably had a pair of round eyes when she was young. Now that she is old, there is still a watery gleam in her black eyes. At this moment, for some reason, there is a sense of sadness in them.

"I just happen to be in need of two maids to serve me."

As she said this, she couldn't help but think of the first time she saw the little girl.

At that time, Qinglu Village had not yet reached such a crazy level. Two little girls were washing clothes together by the river, laughing and laughing. They were not in a hurry to go back. They picked a few flowers to play with. They turned around and saw Granny Ma coming down the mountain. They ran to touch her, and seeing the flowers and plants in her basket, they thought she was picking flowers to sell in the city, so they put the orchids in bud in their hands into the bamboo basket.

She vaguely remembered that day when the children were playing by the river, they said, "I don't know what Phoenix is ​​like. I must go out and see it one day."

"It's a pity that we can't go into the city this year. Last year's harvest was not enough for us to eat. This year it's cold and we went up the mountain late, so the mountain products have long been trampled to pieces by the wild beasts."

Granny Ma was never a kind person. She saw that everyone in the village was happy, but only the little girl was crying by the river. When she saw her, she asked, "Sister has become the bride of the Moon God. The betrothal gifts left by the Moon God are enough for the whole village to eat for a long time, but can the bride enjoy herself? Will the Moon God be in Phoenix City?"

Of course, the Moon Goddess will not be in Phoenix City.

Granny Ma looked at the little girl, and for some reason, she turned around and left a curse mark on the corpse as she passed by the village.

This village was originally a good burial site surrounded by mountains and water, where the body would not be damaged even if it was kept for seven days.

So seven days after his death and burial, a girl appeared in the small courtyard covered by vines in Phoenix City.

The girl came into the city on her own under the control of Granny Ma's corpse-control technique. When the guards heard that she was Granny Ma's maid, they let her in and did not ask for the spirit stones required to enter the city.

The little girl later became the bride of the Moon Goddess like her sister, and fell into a deep sleep one morning.

So the two little sisters reunited in Phoenix. Their wishes in life were fulfilled after death, but it was a belated and deformed perfection.

Granny Ma came out of her memories and looked up at Lin Du.

Lin Du is much more slick than those two kids. The kids from the mountains are simply smart and clever. Kids like them are the smart ones who have come out of the mundane world after struggling in it.

Even if you know she is playing tricks on you, you can't hate her.

Death is probably not as fun as life, that's all.

Granny Ma said she didn't understand why she was so tolerant of Lin Du. She just said calmly, "Anyway, it's just like that. I was just being kind. Just now you said, Feixing Sect, is that person from Feixing Sect?"

Lin Du thought he could be right.

Yin Zhong was present outside the secret realm that day, and Yin Zhong's eldest disciple Tao Xian came to rescue him, saying that the elder said that Shao Fei must be brought back at all costs.

Tao Xian's temple had been tampered with, and he happened to be from this village, so she knew what other people's masters were like. Putting aside that beastly Yan Ye, just look at Ju Yuan's nervous attitude towards Mo Lin's body. If Yin Zhong was a serious master, he would not have failed to notice Tao Xian's weirdness.

Yin Zhong is now one of the most influential elders in Feixing Sect, but the chaos in Feixing Sect's outer sect has only occurred in recent years.

When all coincidences come together, it's no longer a coincidence.

Mo Lin's tragedy in past and present life is all related to Shao Fei and Feixing Sect. Lin Du wants to settle this account clearly.

Even though she still doesn't have the evidence to nail the man behind the scenes, Lin Du is best at trying to persuade different people to do the right thing. She wants to pull Granny Ma to her side and cure Mo Lin without hindering her elimination plan. So no matter whether Yin Zhong is the manipulator behind the scenes or not, he must be the manipulator now.

After being rescued by Granny Ma, he was revealed to be the mastermind behind the rampant Zhu magic.

Lin Du's black and white eyes showed a little resolute light, and then he smiled suddenly, his tiger teeth jumping out, "Although I am young and like to joke, I am also a disciple of the Supreme Sect. I must not break the precept of lying. What do you think?"

Wei Zhi turned his head away silently, just pretending that he didn't hear it.
