Chapter 10: I told you that you might not dare to find
It's late at night.
Sister Yang’s home.
Inside the house, dining table.
Lin Fan raised his hand to feel the pulse and finished, then smiled and said, "Sister Yang, you are recovering very well."
"Thank you, Taoist Priest." Sister Yang said gratefully.
God felt pity for her child and could not bear to see her child become an orphan, so he sent the Taoist priest to her house and save her from danger. It was truly a life-saving favor that I could never repay.
"Let's eat." Lin Fan said.
Three dishes and one soup is considered a relatively sumptuous meal in today's circumstances. Ordinary people certainly cannot afford such a luxury, but who can blame Lin Fan for having money?
Thinking of the miraculous uses of the golden centipede, it has to be said that the art of poison is worth further research. Currently, in terms of practice, the most important thing is to improve the three spells to perfection.
Then accumulate merit points to advance the spell.
"Sister Yang, some time ago I heard that Mayor Huang often took concubines, but those concubines didn't live long. Do you know the reason?" Lin Fan asked.
There must be a reason behind everything.
He would not forget the purpose of going down the mountain, which was to slay demons and eliminate evil. Huanglang Town was the first stop, so he must do something. If he had not met Master Guiwu, he might not have thought there was anything wrong here.
But the master was here, so he didn’t believe that he was just passing by.
So, there must be a problem.
Sister Yang thought about it, recalled it, and shook her head, saying, "I don't know. Town Mayor Huang started taking concubines more than 20 years ago, and he has never stopped until now. The only thing I am puzzled about is that up to now, Town Mayor Huang has no children."
Weird, very weird.
At least it looked strange to Lin Fan.
Why do you take concubines? Of course, you want her body, but if you want her body, you must have offspring. But there is not even one so far, and people always die. There is a problem, a huge problem.
After dinner, he got up and went back to the house. He wanted to help clean up the dishes, but the little rabbit took care of all the work and didn't give him a chance to touch anything.
Inside the house.
Lin Fan took out the sutra.
"The Demon Subduing Fist is a fist technique inspired by Buddhist scriptures. With the master's wisdom, everything he uses is definitely not an ordinary thing."
Watch it carefully and memorize the contents of the sutra in mind. There are nearly three hundred lines of text in total. On the right are a dozen or so little boxing figures who move according to the contents of the sutra.
After a moment.

"I really am a genius in cultivation. I can record everything just by doing a few moves. It's just that my proficiency is a bit low. The boxing skills given by the master cannot be so low even if I haven't mastered them yet."
I was thinking about it, but I didn't understand it.
never mind.
Looking at the remaining 0.1 merit points, I decided to practice and see how it goes. One point is equivalent to one year, and now I only have one tenth of it, which is equivalent to more than 30 days of practice. It's worth a try.
"Consume 0.1 merit."
The strange feeling came again, I could feel the flow of time, and my control over the "Demon Subduing Fist" improved rapidly.
It happened so quickly that the practice was over in the blink of an eye.
[Buddhism: Demon-Subduing Fist (Beginner 10/100)]
In terms of proficiency, this boxing style seems to be similar to the Rotten Sore Style.
He raised his hands and swung his fists, the force could be heavy or light, and as he continued to swing his fists, for some reason, he did not feel his heart beating faster, but instead felt a sense of peace.
"So that's how it is. Master, what you said is true. It is true that I can suppress the anger in my heart, but... I have anger, so it is definitely gone. I practice the orthodox Taoism. Master, you have misjudged me."
"And they all seem to have become stronger."
"This boxing is awesome."
The master is a good master.
He is a good master who is willing to help his colleagues.
If it were other fellows, they would want to hide what they have learned. How could they possibly give it to others selflessly?
Just like his master, he didn't even tell him the most important method of making the Meat Spirit Incense and had to keep it hidden. If he had learned it, and was able to refine the Meat Spirit Incense in the future, would he not bring it to them?
It was getting late and time to go to bed, but before going to bed, he still had to feed the golden centipede. After all, this was his first pet, and if he didn't feel pain, who would?
The next day.
"Master, Master..."
The little rabbit ran over in panic, his face pale without a trace of blood.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Fan was chopping wood. Sister Yang was still recovering and it was difficult for her to do heavy work. Besides, he couldn't stay in Huanglang Town for too long, so it was necessary to chop more firewood.
I remember that when I was in Chaotian Taoist Temple, he was the one who chopped firewood. The master and senior brothers all praised him for chopping the firewood neatly and making it the same size.
"Sister Taozi is dead."
"What?"
In the past two days, he mostly walked around the town with Xiaotu and got to know her friends. Sister Taozi was two years older than Xiaotu. She had a tragic life. She had no father but a mother. Her mother was beaten in front of her and eventually died tragically.
Apart from not liking to talk, this child is sensible and polite, and does not fight or compete.
…
There is a well in the town.
Lin Fan and Xiaotu rushed over. Taozi's body was fished out of the well. It turned out to be an old woman who was preparing to fetch water to wash clothes. Who could have thought that there was a body in the well.
"Damn it, you can't die anywhere else, but you have to die in the well. How are we going to drink water in the future?"
"Stupid girl, it's so simple to hang yourself with a rope, but you have to jump into the well."
“The old locust tree at the entrance of town is so convenient.”

No one felt sorry for Taozi's death by jumping into the well, all they did was curse and complain.
Lin Fan pushed through the crowd and came to the body.
"Sister Taozi."
The little rabbit knelt aside, tears streaming down his face. His former friends around him also had red eyes, and some were trembling with fear.
Lin Fan looked at the faces of the onlookers. Their mouths were warm, but the words they spoke were extremely cold.
Leaving this world is a kind of relief.
Too lazy to say a word to them.
Squatting down to examine the body, Taozi's face was pale and bloodless, with eyes wide open, as if she had suffered some kind of shock before death. An ordinary person would at most say that she jumped into a well and drowned.
But in Lin Fan's eyes, Taozi's energy and spirit dissipated, obviously being forcibly absorbed.
People have spirit.
Practitioners also have it.
It's nothing more than the difference of thickness.
"Demon, it must be a demon."
Apart from demons sucking the energy and spirit of mortals, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would do such a thing.
Just as he was thinking about this.
A rough voice came, "Do you really think this girl jumped into the well by herself? In fact, I saw everything. She was thrown in by someone."
Everyone looked towards the person who was speaking.
He was a big bearded man with a big knife on his back and several hideous scars on his face.
"Tell me, who threw it." Lin Fan looked at the other party with a much sharper look.
The big man said, "You stinky Taoist priest, who are you? Do you think I will tell you just because you want to know? I am not..."
"I told you, all this change is yours." Lin Fan held a few pieces of silver in his hand, enough for the family to use for a long time. Moreover, most people used copper coins, so the value of silver pieces was higher.
There was greed in the eyes of the onlookers.
Everyone wants this silver.
I never thought that such an inconspicuous and stinky Taoist priest could be so wealthy. I really want to strip him naked and rob him of everything.
"Even if I told you, you might not dare to look for it."
The big man didn't want to say it, but the other party gave too much. Of course, he had to say the nonsense he said before.
"explain."
"Okay, it was thrown by Mr. Huang's housekeeper. Go find it if you have the guts."
After saying that, the big man took the change from Lin Fan's hand and left without looking back. He was not going to stay in Huanglang Town anymore. He had to leave after making some money.
When the big man left, several men in the crowd looked at each other and followed him away.
Kill the other party and steal the silver, then come back and kill the stinky Taoist priest. This guy must have some silver on him.
At this time, when the crowd heard that it was someone from Mr. Huang's family who threw the body, they all kept silent. No one dared to say that the person who threw the body was stupid. Instead, they left in tacit understanding.
Mr. Huang is very famous in Huanglang Town.
Everyone is afraid.
It’s not that there were people who didn’t dare to take action against Mr. Huang in the past.
But the end result was that he was skinned and hung at the town gate for public display.
