Chapter 247: The Human World
This case of meat and gold reappears, and there is no need to guess, it must be the "Holy Gate".
However, a question that has always plagued Lin Xixue is why this so-called "Holy Gate", which is secretly worshipping Tianzun, needs so much gold.
If only a large amount of gold is needed, but this gold is also circulated on a large scale on the market, in addition to making Lin Xixue feel that the "Holy Gate" force is acting unscrupulously, what makes Lin Xixue even more curious is what they are doing with this money.
She had already had these doubts when she first saw this evil method of turning stone into gold, but she had not been able to find any answers to them so far.
Originally, the Yunzhou royal family asked Qingyu Mountain to investigate the matter thoroughly, but as soon as some clues were found, this Qingyu Mountain was destroyed, leaving only Bai Qing, the only seedling.
Now that the Holy Gate, which has lost its restraints, will commit crimes again, it is really expected.
Lin Xixue fell into deep thought, but the Fengyue Immortal on the side was already leaning against the wall and began to retch.
She has been too well protected by the elders in the door since she was a child, and Feng Buyou's own brother, after all, she still hasn't been exposed to many similar terrorist incidents, and when she heard about this meat and gold smell at this moment, she naturally only felt extremely disgusted.
After a long while, Fengyue Immortal gradually regained his strength, and asked in a weak voice, "Why did the gold in the inventory turn into a . That kind of thing. ”
"It's just an evil law, anyway, forget about it, don't mention it in the future, don't get involved." Lin Xixue solemnly warned the two.
"Listen to Miss Lin, but what do you know?" Cheng Yanqi was curious.
"Yes, not only do I know, but I also have a grudge against the forces behind it. But if you believe me, don't talk about it any longer. Lin Xixue admonished again.
"Regarding the gold nugget I gave you, although the origin is special and I am inconvenient to disclose, I can assure you that it is definitely not meat gold, and you can use it with confidence."
"Okay, I can trust Miss Lin." Cheng Yanqi nodded.
"Oh, yes, there's one more thing." Lin Xixue took out a handful of spiritual soil and said, "You can put this thing away first." ”
"What is this?" Cheng Yanqi curiously put this object in the palm of her hand and rubbed it, only to feel that it was not significantly different from ordinary sand.
"This thing. You can understand it as a way to ward off evil spirits. If an evil thing touches it, it will take on its original form and die suddenly. Lin Xixue had already blurred her words as much as possible, and did not mention Zhu Shengniang.
"This kind of evil has been secretly spreading in Jingyun City for a long time, and the book apartment is open every day to welcome guests, and if there is a girl who is recruited, you can use this thing to test it."
"Is there such a thing? If you are really contaminated with this evil, what are the signs? ”
Lin Xixue told Cheng Yanqi the specific details again. After hearing this, Cheng Yanqi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If that's the case, then the girls in my book apartment should not be recruited for the time being." ”
"It's a big deal, just in case you dissolve it in water, and let the girls take it all over again."
Cheng Yanqi hesitated, but nodded in response, if this evil can really lurk so deeply, it is indeed the sooner it is cleared, the safer.
It's just that she still has a little doubt, if this strange sand and soil is actually some kind of poison, then won't the lives of so many girls in the book fall into the hands of Lin Xixue?
She understood that as Cheng Yanqi, she should not have any suspicions about Lin Xixue. But as the owner of the bookstore, she must be responsible for the net worth and lives of all the girls in the bookstore.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally asked, "Miss Lin, do you have to take this thing?" ”
When Lin Xixue heard such a response, she was stunned at first, and then understood Cheng Yanqi's worries, and explained: "Actually, you don't necessarily have to take it, it's just that this way has the fastest effect." ”
"If you're really worried, it's the same to ask the girls to wash their hands with water dissolved in it."
When Cheng Yanqi heard this, she said with a look of shame on her face: "It's Yanqi's villain's heart, and I hope Miss Lin won't mind." ”
"It's okay," Lin Xixue shook her head, "After all, this is about the safety of the whole book, so it won't be wrong for you to be cautious." If I were on the same page, I would have the same concerns. ”
Cheng Yanqi was a little choked up when she heard this, although she didn't make any more promises, but she had already made up her mind in her heart that her life would be Lin Xixue's from now on.
"In the next few days, in Jingyun City, I'm afraid it will become more and more chaotic, you and the sisters of the Shuyu, you must be careful." After Lin Xixue told her again, she took Fengyue Immortal back to the Splendid Inn.
"Okay, this is the matter of helping me find a treasure of feng shui, and it will be completed, and you brother and sister and I will be considered clear."
Feng Buyou took a step forward and said, "In this way, I will take Ah Mei back to the ancestor as soon as possible, after all."
Halfway through his words, he swallowed back the second half of the sentence. After all, she couldn't bear to see her sister sad because of her own affairs again.
"Don't worry, Brother Feng, remember, I just said that I want to take you to a place, let's go and go back quickly."
Feng Buyou hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, and after telling Feng Yuexian to stay at the inn, he followed and left.
Lin Xixue took him to the fish and rice shop, and when his consciousness swept over, he found the lady who sold embroidered shoes, and behind this lady, there was indeed an extremely thick tree.
She stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, how do you sell these embroidered shoes?" ”
"Fifty wen a pair, if you bring your own materials, I will only charge you twenty wen." The eldest lady replied with a smile.
But Lin Xixue was keenly aware of the sadness that this lady hid behind her smile, and she naturally knew why this sorrow arose.
But she still asked knowingly: "Auntie, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”
"Hehe, looking at the girl, you are dressed, it must be a young lady from a big family, and it is really rare to be willing to care about my half-cut old bones."
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that my unfilial son hasn't been home for a few days, so where to hide from the debt."
"Hiding from debts? Does your son owe a lot of money while he's out there? ”
"Hey, like his father, he is a bad gambler, he has lost a lot of money, and he has been blocked by someone, otherwise why would I sit here and sell embroidered shoes with my old bones?"
"Ahh Lin Xixue couldn't help but be dumbfounded, okay, such a bad gambler let himself talk, saying that he went to a far away place to be an official, didn't this person make up nonsense without considering the reasonableness?
Fortunately, I inquired about the situation first, otherwise if I really had to say it directly according to the lines he gave, it would be a big joke.
"Ahem, in my opinion, eldest aunt, you have also reached the age of retirement, this kind of unfilial son cares what he does, it is better to let him go out and fend for himself." These words are indeed what Lin Xixue really thinks.
The eldest lady smiled bitterly: "After all, it is my own flesh and blood, besides, he became addicted to gambling later, in fact, it is mainly my responsibility." ”
"He's a good bet, it's your responsibility, auntie?" Lin Xixue was a little confused.
