Chapter 301: The crime is in the present, but the merits will be in the future
It was another autumn harvest. Mo Lin led a group of people to harvest the spiritual wheat, changed clothes, and went to Tianrui Peak.
The formation set up by Lin Du was soundproof and aura-proof. It was a laboratory specially arranged for Xia Tianwu to study mutant evil spirits. Ordinary people were not allowed to enter.
Mo Lin knocked on the door of the barrier, formed a seal and sent in his own spiritual power and aura, and was able to enter.
As soon as he entered, he heard the earth-shaking sound of chopping bones.
Xia Tianwu sensed Mo Lin's arrival, but he had no time to greet her. He carried the axe and banged it.
"Didn't you always use a saw in the past? Why are you using an axe today?"
"Let's test it." Xia Tianwu chopped down the axe with all his strength, "The strength of the demon's bones is amazing."
"That's not how you use an axe to exert force. Let me do it." Mo Lin put on gloves and wanted to do it for her.
Xia Tianwu shook her head, "Only if I feel it myself can I know the difference."
Mo Lin had to put his hands down, he was almost tearing the storybook apart.
What about "One Hundred Ways to Win a Taoist Partner", "Teaching You How to Quickly Become a Love Master", "Details of Pleasing People", "Language Master", the things in them don't work on my junior sister.
The junior uncle said to read more books, but it seems to be useless.
Xia Tianwu raised the axe high and chopped it down again.
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh, there's a letter for you." Mo Lin took it out, "It feels very thick, I wonder who it is."
Dong!
There was another loud noise, and the axe penetrated the black and red bones for only an inch, but the wooden table underneath collapsed directly.
Mo Lin was quick to hold the tabletop and keep the things from falling.
Xia Tianwu made a note in the booklet beside him, then turned around to pack up the things and took the letter.
Mo Lin's consciousness quietly fell on it, and then he was shocked by the anatomical diagram and the evil demon skin and silently retracted his gaze.
"It was sent to me by Quan Jiangren." Xia Tianwu noticed Mo Lin's gaze, "I almost completed a few spells that still need to be refined a few days ago, so I sent a letter to ask him if there is a way to reverse it." "
After all, I still have an evil demon who retains the last bit of sanity here. It would be great if there is a way to reverse it."
She looked at the letter and her brows slowly wrinkled.
"Everyone said that there is a half-intelligent demon in the valley, about the same age as a nine-year-old human, and the killer is making progress."
"The Zhongzhou Strange Stories said that the Demon Lord was responsible for this incident, and wanted to force the real mastermind to show up, but he never showed up." Mo Lin thought of something, "Based on the character of the Demon Lord, he doesn't seem like he would take the blame like this."
"That evil demon is already very weak." Xia Tianwu looked at the small room not far away. "She can't get food, and she will continue to weaken in the spiritual environment. Her soul has been eroded by the evil spirit and only has the last bit of rationality left."
She whispered, "She seems to... regard me as her mother."
Mo Lin exclaimed, "Then, how about we try to feed the child some raw meat?"
Xia Tianwu didn't think it was wrong, frowned, "Well, let's try it later."
She scanned the sloppy handwriting and stopped at the last page.
"I'll make a new table for you?"
"Wait a minute, go find Junior Uncle first." Xia Tianwu's eyes flashed with panic, and he hurriedly opened the envelope, and indeed took out a willow branch from it.
Mo Lin lowered his head, and his dusty memories suddenly surged up, "Is that... a short branch of red willow?"
Lin Du's daily schedule was very fixed, and he could find her position accurately without even transmitting the sound.
When Xia Tianwu and Mo Lin came over, Lin Du was reviewing a chess game in the study, with lights dimming and a sense of peace and tranquility.
"Why are you two here together? Is there anything you want to tell me?" Lin Du was in a good mood and blinked his eyes and smiled.
A willow branch fell in front of Lin Du, and Xia Tianwu said, "Master Quan said that a new evil demon entered the Echo Valley. One of the evil demons still had the IQ of a nine-year-old child. He had a willow branch hanging from his chest, saying that he was responding to the planner. Then Master Quan said that he guessed that it was not aimed at him, but at... the kid in our team that day who was full of schemes and tricks."
Lin Du narrowed his eyes and looked at the words engraved on it.
"The crime is in this generation, but the merits will be passed down for generations. Although I am gone, no one can catch up with me."
Xia Tianwu looked at the smile on the face of the junior master, and his eyes were filled with coldness.
Lin Du held the chess piece in his hand, leaned back on the chair, and looked down at the willow branch lying across the chessboard, grinning. However, Chu Guanmeng, who was hanging on his shoulder, was frightened.
"The crime is in the present, and the merits will last for generations."
Lin Du took a deep breath, "Oh, what a good phrase."
This was the response her good senior brother gave her.
They said that he was guilty of a heinous crime, and he said that his merits will last for generations.
Lin Du lowered her eyes, and the fierceness in her heart spread into her blood vessels, and her blood rushed. A strange sense of excitement in the confrontation made her originally calm mood turbulent.
Wen Fu knew that she was forcing him on purpose. Now that he was being pursued by both the spirits and the demons, he would be caught sooner or later.
"Oh yes, uncle, there is also a letter for you." Mo Lin thought about it and took out another letter. This letter looked much thinner.
Lin Du took the envelope and found that it was actually strictly prohibited. She raised her hand and poured in spiritual power, and found the problem was, "Want some melon seeds?"
Lin Du:...This Hu You is quite creative.
She tried to enter her own name, but it was wrong.
What could it be.
Lin Du tried Hu You's name again, but it was still wrong.
She thought about it again and again, and answered Hibiscus Jade.
The password was correct, and the envelope popped open automatically.
A Hibiscus Jade Sculpture, this thing has been remembered for a lifetime!
Lin Du sighed, pulled out the piece of letter paper, and found that it recorded the specific names of the Demon Lord's subordinates, from the left and right protectors to the one, two, three, four, and five elders, as well as the lords who were in charge of various territories, as well as their respective hobbies, personalities, and main skills.
In the letter, Hu You mainly pointed out several suspects, one was the Right Protector who never revealed his true identity, one was the Fifth Elder who was good at treatment, and the other was the Thirteenth Elder who was keen on arresting people and torturing evil spirits.
Finally, Hu You said in the letter that the news had been conveyed, and the demons were agitated, and it seemed that many lords were eager to try, but because the Demon Lord issued a search order, the evil spirits from all sides did not dare to confirm the authenticity of the news.
Lin Du stared at the letter for a while, and a smile of taking charge of the situation reappeared in his eyes. He looked up at his nephew who looked worried, "It's okay, I know what's going on."
"Anything else?"
Xia Tianwu shook his head, "Nothing at the moment. Quan Jiangren sent me a new research idea. I'll tell Junior Uncle when I've made some concrete progress."
Lin Du nodded, "Okay."
Xia Tianwu turned and left, but Mo Lin stood there, with a hint of embarrassment on his righteous face, "Junior Uncle... your method of reading more books doesn't work!"
Lin Du was at a loss, "Ah?"
Mo Lin gestured, "That's it, didn't Junior Uncle say to read more books to accumulate experience, but I've read a lot of ways to pursue a Taoist couple, and it still doesn't work!"
Lin Du took a breath of cool air, "Ah?"
She pressed her temples, "What have you learned?"
"That's right, pay attention to details, cater to their preferences, and focus on companionship..." Mo Lin took out a booklet, "I also took notes." Lin
Du took the booklet and then confiscated it.
She looked up at Mo Lin, "Little uncle will teach you a sentence, since ancient times, routines cannot keep people, only sincerity can win people's hearts."
"Sincerity is the biggest killer move."
"You are all very simple people, there is no need to complicate things."
Lin Du felt that he deserved to be a uncle, at least the annual salary should be doubled.
But seeing a 100-year-old, 1.95-meter-tall iron club standing in front of him, with a pair of big eyes sincerely asking for advice, Lin Du had no choice but to help.
She looked at Mo Lin, "It's better to keep going slowly than to try to please him or force yourself to change. Everyone has their own way of getting along with each other. We are all independent and complete individuals who can live normally and independently. When two people want to merge their lives together, they will inevitably have to go through a long period of change and friction. But you have lived together for decades. Don't you understand Tian Wu's personality?"
Lin Du returned to his old job and explained seriously, "Your heart is full of love, but you are not as good as him. I don't know how to be with ... "Be honest, don't be so hesitant."
She paused and added, "If she says no, then we should let her go. Respect is the most important thing. We should still be good brothers and sisters. Do you understand?"
Mo Lin nodded, not quite understanding, "I know, now the demon tide is imminent, she is busy, and I have to concentrate on cultivation. Then, wait until she is done!"
Lin Du watched Mo Lin turn around and pick up the sword and stick to practice sword. After a moment of silence, he turned his head to look at his chessboard.
She reached out and swept all the black pieces with a willow branch, then stood up and walked towards the forbidden area.
How could he shake her determination to continue the layout?
Regardless of merits and demerits, she must protect the people of the present and the future.
Lin Du always wants to have both.
She will definitely go further than Wen Fu.
