Chapter 008: Unlock the Labyrinth Lock
Early in the morning, when the refreshed Yu Wanyin had breakfast downstairs and entered the guest room with Ling Motang's breakfast, Ling Motang was scratching her ears and cheeks, her hair had been rubbed by Ling Motang, her long hair was pulled in her hands, and she muttered: "No, it's wrong again."

Yu Wanyin frowned slightly, staring at the long hair in Ling Motang's hand, only to feel that her scalp was numb, and pulled away Ling Motang's hand pulling her hair: "Let's eat some first." ā
Ling Motang took a bun from the bowl and stuffed it in his mouth, his eyes were still on the lock, Yu Wanyin took the iron box in his hand and looked at it, and then said nonchalantly: "If you can't open it, you will smash the lock." ā
"Violence." Ling Motang swallowed the last bite of the bun skin, and glanced at Yu Wanyin: "Once this maze lock is forcibly opened, the contents inside will be automatically destroyed by the gear mechanism, which is also the peculiar thing about this lock, forget it, you don't understand it after telling you." ā
Yu Wanyin pursed her lips, her voice was cold: "I don't understand, it's like you don't do your job all day long, and you waste your time on these strange tricks." "In Yu Wanyin's opinion, things other than cultivating immortals are called improper, and Ling Motang has been interested in organs, Qimen Dunjia, and formations since he was a child...... Interested, as long as it is something other than cultivating immortals, Ling Motang doesn't need to be taught at all, and he can learn without a teacher by looking at the book.
Ling Motang changed his usual hippie smiling face, and moved the iron piece locked in the maze without raising his head, Yu Wanyin felt bored, took the sword and went to the yard to practice, before leaving, Yu Wanyin said to Ling Motang very plainly: "I have distributed all the gold and silver money I got back from Heishi Village last night to the poor people in the city." ā
"Oh." Ling Motang's eyelids didn't blink, his fingers dexterously fiddled with the maze lock, Yu Wanyin was a little surprised Ling Motang's impassivity, according to Yu Wanyin's understanding of Ling Motang, this person knew that the silver had been given away and he was still angry, how could he be so calm as now.
Yu Wanyin, who couldn't figure it out, stopped thinking about it and went downstairs with a sword.
In the house, Ling Motang took a pen and drew on the rice paper, analyzing the internal structure of the "Labyrinth Lock", the time came to noon in a flash, Yu Wanyin finished practicing the sword, and when Ling Motang came back with a sweat, his expression was serious; Yu Wanyin came out of the shower, and although Ling Motang sat straight at the table, his tightly wrung eyebrows had been soothed; When Yu Wanyin sat opposite Ling Motang and slowly wiped the long sword in his hand, Ling Motang's brows were completely stretched.
She stepped on the chair with one foot, slapped the table with one hand, winked at Yu Wanyin, ran her fingers across her lips, and turned her head confidently: "The following is the moment to witness the miracle." As soon as the words fell, there was a "knock", and the maze lock was opened, and the contents made Ling Motang a little depressed.
I thought that such a cumbersome labyrinth lock must be a rare treasure, but I didn't expect it to be a pile of letters, life, I really don't know what will happen in the next second.
"Poof." After Yu Wanyin saw the stiff smile on Ling Motang's face, she smiled unexpectedly and quipped: "I finally understand what it means today, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment." ā
Ling Motang gritted his teeth, opened a letter casually, his face began to become solemn, and after reading all the letters, he took out a token from the bottom of the iron box, which was engraved with the word "quicksand".
"Now it can explain everything." Ling Motang threw the token back into the iron box, and Yu Wanyin, who had read the letter, thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The Liuyun Sect is fundamentally an evil sect. ā
Most of these letters were sent from within the Liuyun Sect, and the content was, "The disciples of the Liuyun Sect will come down the mountain in three days and leave quickly. Such messages to report to Heishi Village, but what Yu Wanyin didn't expect the most was that the letter also arranged in detail how to post a notice after the Jiuli clan was wiped out, looking for the whereabouts of the person with the jade slip on his body.
Ling Motang shook his head: "This matter has nothing to do with the Liuyun Sect, it's just that there are spies in the Liuyun Sect, they are calculating behind the Liuyun Sect, and there are many things that the disciples of the Liuyun Sect don't know." ā
"How do you know?" Yu Wanyin's face was suspicious, and Ling Motang's fingertips tapped on the table: "The notice posted on the city gate has been torn down, and the notice has only been posted for two days, and people have torn it up before they can find it, why is this?" That's because the Liuyun Sect will soon send people to select new disciples, and it is obvious that the person who posted this notice does not want the people of the Liuyun Sect to see it, which means that someone is using the name of the Liuyun Sect to find someone. ā
"You mean, these things are kept in the dark?" Yu Wanyin asked rhetorically, and Ling Motang nodded: "The Liuyun Sect recruits disciples every ten years, do you remember that there was a person wearing a Taoist robe in the clan ten years ago?" ā
Yu Wanyin thought about it carefully, and then affirmed: "I remember, that person also asked me if I would like to enter the Liuyun Sect, but my grandfather refused, saying that the time had not come. ā
"Liuyun Sect and Jiuli have an inextricable relationship, Liuyun Sect has a way to enter Jiuli, you must know that only people who are good friends with Jiuli have a special way to enter Jiuli, and the first place for Liuyun Sect to recruit disciples is also Jiuli, and grandpa repeatedly told us to go to Liuyun Sect before he died, which proves that grandpa trusted Liuyun Sect, so the fall of Jiuli has little to do with Liuyun Sect, it may be the work of a spy hidden in Liuyun Sect." Ling Motang was very serious when he thought about the problem, and his peach blossom eyes were sharp and thorough.
She saw that Yu Wanyin's brows were furrowing deeper and deeper, and continued: "If my speculation is correct, the people of the Liuyun Sect will definitely go to Jiuli again before recruiting disciples, but unfortunately Jiuli no longer exists, and at that time, it was the people of the Liuyun Sect who really knew the news of the extermination of the Jiuli clan, and like the Liuyun Sect's spies, they all wanted to find people with the "Liuyun" jade slip on their bodies, to be exact, there would be two groups of people who wanted to find us. ā
Yu Wanyin's heart was cold, and she asked Ling Motang: "Who is the spy hidden in the Liuyun Sect, and what is his purpose?" ā
Ling Motang bit his lip and sighed, and then smiled again: "Yu Meiren, you can also look up to me, you really think I know everything." ā
Yu Wanyin was broken by Ling Motang, and she couldn't help but scold on her face: "What are you doing." I don't know when Yu Wanyin has begun to rely too much on Ling Motang when thinking about problems, and unconditionally believes every word Ling Motang says.
This is probably because the two of them are lonely, which leads to the psychology of interdependence, or Ling Xiao's sentence "depend on each other".
When Yu Wanyin looked at Ling Motang, who didn't look so serious, she suddenly remembered a sentence in her heart: Laughing is laughing, and doing things properly.
Perhaps, Ling Motang is such a person, it is just Ling Motang who she has not been able to see through the uneasy routine.
