Chapter 254: Persuasion

The stove was blazing, and the water in the big black iron pot was boiling and the white mist gurgling.

Wu Luoyang's face was reflected crimson by the fire, and his body was full of warmth.

Mother Lin poured cornstarch water into the pot to thicken the batter, and at the same time held a long bamboo chopsticks and gently stirred clockwise in the large iron pot to prevent the pan from sticking.

Looking at this middle-aged woman with a kind face, Wu Luoyang was slightly distracted.

For a moment, I suddenly remembered the woman who had abandoned me.

If she hadn't abandoned her, would she have been like Mother Lin, who got up early every day to prepare breakfast for her daughter?

Syllable!

The stove fire burns the bamboo joints and makes a crisp explosion sound.

Wu Luoyang instantly retracted his thoughts, lowered his eyes slightly, and hid the different colors under his eyes.

"The fire is hot, retreat some bamboo poles and come out."

Mother Lin said and put down the long bamboo chopsticks in her hand.

I saw her bend down, reach out and neatly withdraw a few burning bamboo poles from the stove, and then insert them into the gray carbon to extinguish the fire.

"Auntie, how many people do you group go into the mountains to collect mushrooms every time?"

"This one is not fixed, sometimes there are many people, there are about a dozen; Sometimes there are fewer people, and there are five or six. ”

Mother Lin replied with a smile, picked up the aluminum soup pot on the side, served the noodles in the big iron pot with a water scoop, and brought it out to the stall with meat dumplings and steamed buns, and put the small part left in the small soup pot for breakfast.

Wu Luoyang bowed his head and meditated.

How can I open my mouth to persuade Mother Lin not to enter the mountain?

"Luoyang, come over for breakfast."

Mother Lin added some side dishes such as braised large intestine and duck blood peanuts to the noodles batter in the bowl, brought them to the table, and called her over to eat with a smile.

"Oh, good."

Wu Luoyang's thoughts were interrupted, and he subconsciously replied.

Get up and walk over to the long gray wood table and sit down.

Looking at this bowl of hearty breakfast, Wu Luoyang's heart suddenly moved. In this world, there are only two people who can make such a hearty breakfast for her, one is Wu Baiyun, the eldest sister who is like a mother, and the other is Mother Lin.

"Auntie, can you not go into the mountains to collect mushrooms?"

Wu Luoyang raised his eyes and looked over, and subconsciously asked.

"I can't."

It was not Mother Lin who answered her.

Lin Jiadan got up and went downstairs, just when he heard Wu Luoyang's words, he smiled and helped his mother answer.

"Why?"

Wu Luoyang was puzzled.

Now the mountains are very dangerous, and it is very likely that people will not be able to get out if they go in, and even if the fungus is valuable, it will always be less valuable than life.

Mother Lin smiled and didn't answer.

"Because they want to pick mushrooms, the price of mushrooms has been speculated again, and they are more expensive than gold."

Walking to the position next to Wu Luoyang and sitting down, Lin Jiadan took the sumptuous breakfast handed by his mother, and continued to solve Wu Luoyang's doubts in a joking tone, "Don't talk about my mother, you can ask the people in the town casually to see if they are willing not to go into the mountains to pick up gold." ”

Wu Luoyang curled his five fingers slightly, clenching the chopsticks in his hand.

If it is really like what Lin Jiadan said, then only the mayor of Taoyuan town personally ordered the closure of the mountain can prohibit the villagers from entering the mountain.

There were many customers in front of the stall in front of the storefront, and Mother Lin asked Lin Jiadan to greet Wu Luoyang for breakfast, and she turned around and walked out to help open the stall with Father Lin.

"It's useless for you to persuade them."

Lin Jiadan took a sip of noodle batter, bit the white steamed bun that Mother Lin had just steamed in the morning, and spoke again in a low tone.

She said that her mother's generation came from poverty, but any work that can increase income, even if it is manual work, will do the same as men, no matter how hard and tired they are, they will also rush to go, let alone go into the mountains to pick up mushrooms, which they think is a 'good thing' that pays easily.

Therefore, no one would consider how risky it was to encounter the Dark Spirits, and besides, they had been like this for generations, and no one could stop them from entering the mountain.

"Hmm."

Wu Luoyang nodded, indicating that he understood.

It seems that this matter must be to ask the mayor of Taoyuan to help, and before Mother Lin and the others have not entered the mountain, it is better to send a notice to close the mountain than for her to wear out her mouth.

Remembering the incident of meeting the black-robed Wu Luoyang in the hospital morgue yesterday, Wu Luoyang changed his words and asked, "Why did you encounter it in the morgue yesterday?" ”

According to what the black-robed Wu Luoyang said, if it weren't for Wu Luoyang's activation of the Tai Chi Formation Yin and Yang power to destroy the formation in the morgue at that time, Lin Jiadan would probably have been invaded by the place of mind and become a dark war spirit under the black-robed Wu Luoyang, and Wu Luoyang would not have been able to rescue those Yin Spirits trapped in the morgue so easily.

Hearing Wu Luoyang ask, Lin Jiadan did not hide it: "That is much more cunning than you Wu Luoyang, and turned into a doctor in the town hospital to pass me." ”

Wu Luoyang: ......

How does this sound like a compliment to her?

Although Lin Jiadan does not belong to the staff of the hospital in the town, she is an undertaker and is familiar with the medical staff of the hospital, and it is easy to get hold of it once she is not careful.

Recalling the meeting scene at that time, Lin Jiadan noticed a detail: "Strange, it walked in and looked at me, and then I didn't know anything." ”

This Wu Luoyang understands.

She replied, "That's a psychic technique." ”

Psychic can control a person's consciousness and make the other person lose their sense of self in an instant.

According to Lin Jiadan's description, it should be that he fell for the black-robed Wu Luoyang's psychic technique.

To the surprise and surprise of Wu Luoyang and Lin Jiadan, although Lin Jiadan was controlled by the black-robed Wu Luoyang at that time, she completed the restoration of the remains of the deceased in the traffic accident that should have been buried yesterday as scheduled.

Lin Jiadan still looked confused: "Luoyang, you said, it uses the Mind Ecstasy technique to control my consciousness, so how can I repair the remains of the deceased?" ”

Well......

Wu Luoyang lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

"Unless, your obsession is stronger than its psychic arts."

In other words, it was Lin Jiadan's responsibility and obsession with the profession of mortuary that played a role, so that the black-robed Wu Luoyang Mind Puzzle could not completely control Lin Jiadan, so she completed the restoration of the deceased's remains under the Black Robe Wu Luoyang Mind Magic.

The two were talking, and Du Surui also came downstairs.

The three of them had breakfast and went to the town office together.

Located in the center of the town, Taoyuan Town's town office is a magnificent retro-style mix of stone and wood, with two open vermilion solid wood gates tall and heavy, inlaid with copper nails, which look majestic and spectacular. On each side of the gate stood a stone lion, staring at the round eyes, teeth and claws, looking mighty and fierce.

It is said that after the end of the battle a thousand years ago, the two brother generals were ordered by the imperial court to set up a military defense base here, and brought their families and the army to be permanently stationed here to guard the pass for the imperial court.

Walking into the yamen, you are greeted by a tall shadow wall, which is carved with auspicious patterns and the emblem of the government.

There is a row of stone steps on each side of the shadow wall that leads to the lobby. The lobby is spacious and bright, with a mahogany desk in the center with the Four Treasures of the Study and the official seal. Behind the desk is a tall mahogany chair, where the two generals sat in the same room.

Entering from the side gate, there is a back garden behind the yamen, which is full of various flowers and trees, and the side by side rooms have now become the office space of various departments.

The leader of the road took Wu Luoyang and Du Surui and they continued to walk forward, towards the innermost house.
