Chapter 245 Arrangement The spring water is blue in the sky, painting the boat and listening to the rain. It started to drizzle again, and the river surface was like a jade belt with ripples. It was not convenient to row a boat in such weather, so Lin Jue had to use the water control technique to push the boat forward slowly. Although he seems so carefree and elegant, in fact, Lin Jue has not spent much time on the art of controlling water. His attainments in this area are very shallow. The boat moves very slowly, and he needs to be distracted all the time to cast the spell of controlling water. It can also help you practice the ability to do two things at once. "Junior sister?" "Senior brother?" "Don't keep imitating my tone." "understood!" "Now that the matter of the monsters here has been resolved, the capital is not far away, but a rat monster has escaped." Lin Jue sat in the cabin, stroking the fox's back while talking to his junior sister, doing three things at once, "That rat monster once tried to kill us. If we don't get rid of it as soon as possible, I will be uneasy and my mind will be confused. Why don't I send you to the Taoist temple on Fengshan Mountain first, so that you can practice in peace, and Fuyao and I will go after it?" The junior sister leaned against the side of the boat, stretched out her hand to catch the fine raindrops outside, and after a while she turned back and said to them:
"That rat demon once tried to kill you. If I don't get rid of it, I won't be at peace and my mind won't be clear. Why don't we chase it first and then send me to the Taoist temple on Maple Mountain so I can practice in peace?" "Do you have to think about this for that long?" "I'm catching the rain." The little sister said, "Besides, it's only for a short while." "That's fine too." Lin Jue didn't think much about it, because he had already thought about it before he said it. Junior sister must be going to Fengshan Taoist Temple. I must go to the capital too. But although the capital is big, it still has many inconveniences for those who practice Taoism. Although I am in the capital, I still need a secluded place outside the city for cultivation. Although my junior sister is in the mountains, she can't avoid going into the city to buy some things or interact with people in the city. People in the city had to go up the mountain, and people on the mountain had to come into the city. Fengshan is about a hundred miles away from the capital, which is neither near nor far, about the distance from one county to another. It was not easy for Master and his uncles to find such a Taoist temple that was close to the capital but uninhabited, even though it was remote, so they naturally could not let it go to waste. Even if the junior sister didn't go to that Taoist temple, he would go there too. "Although the rat demon runs slowly, we cannot afford to delay him. The longer the night, the more trouble there is." Lin Jue said, "Since this is a life-and-death feud, we naturally won't give him any more chances." "it is good!" The junior sister agreed firmly. "Let it run for a few days and let its guard down. Then we can quietly catch up with it and kill it with one strike." Lin Jue said, "Otherwise, we can only use the most primitive method and slowly chase it to death." "it is good!!" Still firm. "But we have so many things, so many treasures, it's really hard to carry them. The thatched cottage outside Runze City will be rented until the end of this spring. In the summer, the innkeeper will get married, and Luo Gong is not the type to stay in one place forever." Lin Jue frowned and said, "I'm afraid we still have to go to Fengshan and hide these things near the Taoist temple, or leave them with Second Senior Brother."
"it is good!!" Still decisive. Lin Jue turned his head and saw that his junior sister was still sitting sideways, looking out the window, stretching out her hand to catch the rain, and for a moment he didn't know whether she was listening or not. Just as I was thinking about it, the junior sister turned her head and stood up in an instant. Lin Jue thought she had some opinion when he saw her immediately walk to the stern of the boat. "The rain has stopped, I'm going to row the boat!" Seeing how excited she was, if you didn't know her, you would think it was a good job. …… The boat slowly rocked to the outside of Runze City. With a touch of the paper and a chant of the spell, two grey donkeys appeared on the willow bank. This was probably the oldest magic in the fairy tales. Then the two of them took all the cloth bags and bamboo baskets and returned to the outside of the city. The peach tree in the yard has just produced thumb-sized fruits. After the spring rain, the clouds have cleared and the sun is shining again. A colorful cat is lying on the stone mill in the yard, lazily basking in the sun. A weathered warrior is chopping wood in the yard. "Meow?" The colorful cat seemed to hear footsteps, looked up, and immediately jumped off the millstone and ran towards them madly. First, it ran to the little junior sister's feet, rubbed against her back and forth, meowing, and then ran to the side, jumping and playing with the fox. "How are you looking after the house? Have there been any thieves coming in the past few nights?" "Meow!" "Thank you for your hard work." Lin Jue said this and pushed open the wooden door and went in. The warrior stopped with his axe and looked at him. "Mr. Luo, what is this..." Lin Jue looked at him puzzledly. "The lease of this house is about to expire. I went to pay the rent yesterday. It was much lower than the market price here. I have nothing to repay him. Anyway, I'm waiting for you here today. I might as well chop some firewood and leave a pile of firewood for him when the time comes!" Luo Seng said casually, and then asked them, "Did you have a smooth journey back?" "Everything went smoothly, except that we met someone from Juxian Mansion." Lin Jue said, "I wonder if Mr. Luo knew a person named Fan Tianshi during his tenure in the capital?" "Who in the capital doesn't know the name of Fan Tianshi? Even the monsters know him!" Luo Seng said with a sneer on his face, "He's just a charlatan!" "I heard his name can scare away demons?" "When I was working in the capital, I mainly dealt with the demons and ghosts in the city. I thought about making trouble for him several times, but I never caught him doing anything wrong. Secondly, my officers encountered evil demons while out, and they saved their lives thanks to his name. Some people who accidentally encountered ghosts on the road at night said that they knew Master Fan, and sometimes they could scare the ghosts away." Luo Seng's expression suddenly became more sarcastic, "These days, all kinds of strange things happen." "There is such a strange thing..." "Demons and ghosts are no smarter than humans..."
"rational." Luo Seng put down his axe and took out a few small bottles from his arms: "These are the pills given by the Taoist priest. I only gave Huiguang Pills to a few heroes to stop the bleeding. I didn't use anything else." "Keep it, Mr. Luo. Maybe it will be useful someday." "Then I won't be polite to you." Luo Seng casually put it back into his pocket. "What are Mr. Luo's plans from now on?" "Plans? Luo is wanted, so it's not easy for me to stay in one place for long. I can't stay idle either. I just happened to find the crocodile's gift list. Those who had a feast inside and outside the crocodile's cave that day are all recorded in it. Those who ate people are also remembered by Luo." Luo Seng paused and looked at them again: "What are your plans, Taoist priests? If there are people who can be gathered together, I will go with you. If not, after leaving this hut, I will visit them one by one according to this gift list!" "We have to go after that rat demon." "Chasing that rat demon? Great! We're all getting rid of demons anyway!" Luo Seng said proudly, "It won't take too long, so let the demons on this gift list live a few more days!" "Then it's a date!" "Luo has asked a few trusted heroes to help the Taoist priest go to the county offices along the Weishui River to collect the reward. Wait for a few days and clean up the house for the guy. Then we will set off." "it is good!" After making the appointment, Lin Jue and his junior sister went back to the house, unloaded all the cloth bags and bamboo baskets, took back the paper donkey, and rested. …… The house is quiet and birds are singing outside the window. The martial artists that Luo Seng knew received the rewards from several county governments one after another and sent them to Lin Jue. Lin Jue just said thank you and didn't feel too indebted. "Wow..." Pour a cup of hot water into a crystal cup, add tea powder, stir a few times, and a fresh fragrance will waft out. Lin Jue took out the wood carving. The fox couldn't help but stretch out his claws and touch it. "Are you here?" A puff of white smoke floated out and turned into a silver-eating ghost. "It seems that the real person's exorcism was successful... it's cause for celebration..." The silver-eating ghost had a bitter face and looked extremely miserable. Previously, in order to deal with the Alligator King, although Lin Jue only used four poison pills, he actually prepared five in total - ten taels of silver for one pill, and the fake silver made from snake horn also cost ten taels, so five pills would be fifty taels. Some of the snake horns are poisonous stones that have been dried in the shade, and some are poisonous stones that have absorbed corpse poison and then dried in the shade. After they turn into silver, they do not taste good to the silver-eating ghosts, so they have to eat them with gritted teeth. God knows how big a pile of snake horns weighing fifty taels would be. It even took me half a month to finish it.
You can see how painful it is. Lin Jue knew that he had wronged it and felt guilty: "I'm sorry, it's really because we are not good enough, so we can only resort to this last resort." "Master, don't say that. I am willing to do this." The Silver Eater said, "But in the future..." "There will be no such thing in the future." Lin Jue assured it, and at the same time took out a bag of silver, which looked like several hundred taels. "This is the reward silver that some heroes brought from different county offices on both sides of the Weishui River on our behalf, in addition to the crocodile queen. It is more than we expected. It is your food for the next six months. Please take a look." "call……" The silver-eating ghost breathed a sigh of relief, sniffed again, and smelled the sweet scent of silver. He was so moved that he wanted to cry. "Ke Xiang?" "It smells good! It smells good! But it's not as good as before! It still smells good!" "It should be that after hearing that the demon king had been killed, the county magistrates of various places thought that the person who could kill the demon king must be extremely powerful. They were shocked and even frightened, and perhaps instigated by the warriors, they temporarily increased the reward." "Smells good! Smells good!" Only then did Lin Jue feel relieved. "Eat." The sound of the silver-eating ghost eating silver soon rang out in the room. The fox squatted beside and watched it eat. Lin Jue held the crystal cup, drinking tea while blowing out the hot steam. In a trance, he looked at the cup in his hand and felt that he was not in this moment. After drinking the tea, he took out a handful of beans, turned them into three long swords and twelve flying swords, and placed them neatly on the table. The silver-eating ghost was startled. The fox also turned his head to look. The ghost and the fox both felt a little chill— Previously, when I was on Mingzhu Mountain, I had heard that a warrior used a sword to kill a demon, and since then, the long sword has become magical. Later, the most powerful sword I have seen is the precious sword in Luo Gong's hand. It has killed countless demons and ghosts, but now, even a god would fall with one sword. Lin Jue had just used these swords to kill many monsters, and killed a demon king with profound Taoism, so naturally, some magic happened. "Unfortunately……" Eventually they will have to be melted down and remade. "The troubled times are coming..." There should be more powerful demon kings waiting in the future, right? Lin Jue wiped the long sword and flying sword carefully, as if he were treating a spiritual creature, and it took a long time before he put them away. The silver-eating ghost also finished his meal and spat out a pill. "Thank you." Lin Jue took the pill, but did not take it or accept it. Instead, he walked out directly. The cat was licking its paw in the yard.
“Eat it. "You've worked hard guarding the house here, so this is your reward." Lin Jue handed the pill in his hand to it: "But this pill is poisonous. Before you learn how to take it, there is only this one pill. After you take it, comprehend it carefully and practice well. Don't waste it. You should know that this is the elixir that even the demon king wants to get." The cat was naughty by nature. Although it listened to him talking, it stretched out its claws and fiddled with the pill in his hand like a convulsion. "Little flower!" "Meow?" The colorful cat was playing and looked up at him in confusion. Lin Jue immediately stuffed the pill into its mouth. "Eat quickly, I know a rat that you will definitely like. I will leave it to you and Fuyao to deal with it when the time comes." The cat is innocent and smacking its lips. The fox sat on the side, looking forward to it. (End of this chapter)
