Chapter 249: The Original Entanglement of Cause and Effect [Second Update]
Thanks to the fact that when King Liang came to visit, Lin Mo was called the Taoist chief in front of the public, including the prefect Chen Lun and other celebrities from all walks of life in Suzhou City, Lin Mo was actually very famous in Suzhou City. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that although King Liang has a very good attitude towards Xu Xian, he is only polite, but when he comes to Lin Mo, he has some sense of awe...... This is not to be taken lightly!
So in Suzhou City, Lin Mo's fame is not small!
Truth be told, this fame has been mixed. The advantage is that if you want to do something, as long as you put it on a name, you will immediately lose a lot of resistance. No, it's still small to say this, Lin Mo is sure that as long as he releases the news and says that he needs something, at least Chen Lun, the prefect of Suzhou, will definitely be very concerned, and if he can't keep it, he will send soldiers to search everywhere, and he will send it to himself within two or three days.
However, there are advantages, but there are naturally disadvantages, and the disadvantages are that when doing many things, it is very inconvenient. Just like those stars in the earth world, even if it's just shopping, it will cause a lot of commotion! The kind of encounter surrounded by countless people really can't be liked. If you eat a snack on the side of the road on a whim, and before you finish eating, someone will take the initiative to visit and talk...... This should be a lot of unpleasant things!
So since then, Lin Mo has consciously changed his outfit and tried his best to hide his identity. For example, right now, he is lined with a Confucian robe, which belongs to the typical scholarly attire. Well, it's similar to Zhang Yutang's dress, it's a new look. In the past half a month, there have been many patients who have come to Baoan Tong for treatment. But none of them recognized him. Everyone thought that he was a distant relative of Xu Xian, who came to visit relatives and friends to live in Xu's Mansion, and came to help the security hall by the way!
So when this man shouted to him Immortal Chief, Lin Mo was really taken aback: How did this man recognize me?
"I ...... I am...... Woodcutter...... Clothes...... Ever-Bright Lantern......"
The man who was on the verge of life and death reluctantly opened his mouth, spitting out a few words intermittently while foaming blood.
These short words are not connected at all, and anyone who listens to them will be puzzled, and Lin Mo was also very puzzled at first. But this puzzlement only hesitated for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, a spiritual light crossed in his heart. Lin Mo immediately exclaimed in disbelief: "Are you the woodcutter?" The woodcutter who gave me clothes?! ”
This was actually a long time ago. At that time, it was Lin Mo's second foray into the world of mythology. It is also the first time to enter the world of the White Snake. At that time, when he was visiting West Lake in the Earth World, he entered by chance and randomly, without any preparation, and he was still wearing a sportswear.
No doubt. This kind of dress is undoubtedly no longer able to walk in the world of the White Snake. At that time, his cultivation was also very shallow. It was difficult to perform even a disguised illusion, so he had no choice but to use the LED flashlight he was carrying at the time to make a deal with a woodcutter. exchanged a flashlight for a coarse cloth shortcoat.
Well, to be honest, the coarse cloth short clothes were really not good, as soon as Lin Mo entered Zhenjiang City, he immediately exchanged some silver money by selling charms, and then ordered a few improved versions of Taoist robes in the ready-to-wear store to change into, and threw away the coarse cloth linen clothes.
was surprised by Lin Mo, but at this time, his strength was finally completely exhausted, so he could only stare at Lin Mo with hopeful eyes, and squeeze out four words with blood foam in his mouth.
"Immortal...... Long...... Save...... I ......"
Lin Mo was immediately embarrassed.
To tell the truth, although the current situation of this man can be said to be certain death, this is only in the ordinary world. If there is a cultivator who makes a move, it is naturally not hopeless. Like Lin Mo's transformation into a god cultivator, there is no problem, not to mention anything else, even if this physical body is really dead now, he can also detain his soul first like Bai Suzhen rescued Xu Xian, first detain his soul, then use the immortal herb elixir to restore his physical body, and finally put his soul back into his physical body, which can turn his death into life and successfully return to Yang!
But the problem is, it's not about doing what you can do!
For practitioners, there are many things that cannot be done, and 'adding longevity to mortals, going against the rules of life and death' is one of them. And this one is a particularly severe one! Once violated, the gods of the underworld will immediately appear and give absolutely severe punishment!
Needless to say, you can see at a glance: if you were allowed to return the yang to a mortal today and bring him back from the dead, wouldn't other cultivators be able to do the same tomorrow? In this way, if you save one today, he will save one tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow he will be replaced by someone else...... Every practitioner has a lifespan of hundreds of years, so how many people do you have to save if you go back and forth like this? Isn't the rule of life and death between heaven and earth completely out of order!
Of course, every practitioner will say that this is a special situation, and that they do not mean to embarrass the underworld, but that they have to do it as a last resort...... But this thing is not just a last resort, today you have to do it once, tomorrow he has to have to do it once, isn't the situation still that bad?
Therefore, for the sake of heaven and earth as a whole, the Heavenly Court has strictly decreed since its establishment that the life and death of mortals in the world must not be left to the hands of cultivators! Once there is a violation, then the gods of the underworld will inevitably come forward immediately, and then severely punish the cultivators who violate the regulations!
It's an absolute rule. As long as you are a cultivator, no matter what kind of cultivation you are, whether you refine your qi or return to emptiness, you can't go beyond it at all!
Of course, the vastness of heaven and earth is unpredictable, and it is not impossible to say that there are special circumstances, such as Lin Mo's personal participation in the matter of Xu Xian's return to yang. However, this is because of the identities of Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen in the catastrophe, and Lin Mo, who has no fate, has attracted some firepower, oh, now that I think about it, there should also be a reason why the Buddha of the West Heaven and the Emperor of Houtu have no intention of delving into it. But is this the case, several thousands of years, it is estimated that this is just such an example! After all, if it happens a few more times, it will be no different from a slap in the face, not to mention others, the gods of the underworld will never let that person have a good time!
All in all, rescuing mortals from a sudden change of life and death is definitely not something Lin Mo can do!
So despite being begged so much by the dying woodcutter, Lin Mo could only think hard and was ready to refuse.
But at this moment, the men who carried the woodcutter suddenly spoke.
"Immortal Chief? Are you the fairy who gave the third child a long lamp? ”
This third child undoubtedly refers to the woodcutter who is about to die, and the ever-bright light must refer to the LED flashlight.
"Immortal Chief, you really killed the third child! The third child is just an ordinary woodcutter, how can he be blessed to be able to absorb such a fairy treasure! The men opened their mouths angrily and shouted: "If it weren't for this ever-bright lamp, how could the third child be like this!" ”
When Lin Mo heard this, his color immediately changed, and he asked without hesitation: "What's the matter?" What does it mean to kill him? ”
A couple of men immediately explained.
It turned out that for Lin Mo, although it was just a flashlight, to this woodcutter, it was tantamount to a treasure that was difficult to find in the world. After getting the flashlight that day, he didn't even bother chopping wood, put the flashlight in his arms, and ran home in a hurry and handed over the things to his mother-in-law.
There is no doubt that in his mother-in-law, this thing is also regarded as a fairy treasure. So after a little discussion, the couple made a decision to hide this treasure as a family heirloom and leave it to their children and grandchildren. In this way, even if something happens to his husband and wife, his children and grandchildren can exchange it for a large amount of money, and they will not worry about being rich and rich.
And so it was, the flashlight was kept at home.
However, although the couple had their own intentions, their conditions did not allow it: they were poor, and they did not live in a big house like a rich family, but a family of three crammed into a small low house, where was there a good place to hide things? Just half a month later, their young and playful son inadvertently pulled the flashlight out from under the wooden bed and successfully mastered how to use it - after all, the flashlight is not a mobile phone or computer, but can be used with a simple push of a switch.
Needless to say, the next situation is needless to say, how can a playful child not show off such a magical thing when he sees it? It was only an afternoon's effort, and the surrounding neighbors knew that there was a fairy baby in his family.
At this time, the matter could not be contained, and even though the woodcutter couple who returned home regretted it a lot, they could only let the matter spread like this, so two or three days later, some rich men came to check the situation, and as soon as they confirmed the authenticity of the flashlight, they immediately opened their mouths with fine eyes, and said that they were willing to buy this thing with a hundred taels of silver.
To be honest, the woodcutter couple was moved at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, they still refused. Because in their minds, the fairy baby is not just as simple as exchanging it for money, doesn't it say in the play, the fairy baby can improve the fortune and fortune of the town! Those many big officials and celebrities, aren't they all because they have fairy treasures, they have become famous through the ages! Such a baby, how can it be said that it will be changed? Let's not think much about it, as long as we keep it for future generations and let them be rich and prosperous!
So in this way, the woodcutter and his wife rejected the rich man's deal, and turned to the flashlight solemnly put away.
In the days that followed, such things did not happen less, the rich families of Zhenjiang, the old men of Suzhou, the nobles of Hangzhou, and even some businessmen who passed through here took the initiative to come to the door after hearing about this incident, hoping to get the flashlight. It's a pity that they were all rejected by the woodcutter couple.
And the end result is what happened today.
The gangster entered the third child's house, found the everlasting lamp, and wanted to leave, but was discovered by the third child, and the two fought. But after only two or three efforts, the gangster beat the third child like this with a thick stick, and then walked away! The big man said with hatred on his face: "That hateful villain! ”
When Lin Mo heard this, he trembled like a lightning strike, and looked at the woodcutter in a daze for a moment, before he sighed: "Awesome!" That's amazing! This is forcing me to make a move! (To be continued......)
