18. False reasoning
"Senior, that tanuki spirit is lying on a stone to cultivate, I don't see any treasure in the cave, just this stone looks like a treasure, do you need to move it?" Lu Bowen kept in mind the principle of "thieves don't go empty" that Du Yushang said, and thought that he had to move something back, so he fell in love with the big stone.
Du Yushang smiled and said, "You go back the same way first, and we'll come back during the day." ”
Although Lu Bowen was puzzled, he didn't ask much, obediently crawled out of the passage backwards, and after a few dusters cleaned themselves up, he was about to hug Du Yusheng, and his hand was stretched out, and he suddenly remembered that the "senior" was already flying, and he retracted his hand busily.
Du Yushang fluttered his wings and flew up, found a comfortable position on Lu Bowen's chest, grabbed his placket with his claws to fix himself, and said lazily: "The basket I told you before still has to be made, it's too tiring to fly, or a human sedan chair is more comfortable." ”
Lu Bowen had a smile in his eyes, he held Du Yushang with one hand, raised the other hand and honestly put it back: he can't afford the price of his predecessors at present......
Lu Bowen traveled all the way, returned to the post house and practiced for two more hours before he became bright.
The county commander and the master were waiting at the door of the post house early, and today they were going to investigate the abnormal place, and the two of them were considered to be parents at the same time, so they naturally had to be present in person.
Lu Bowen hugged Du Yusheng and followed the county order and the master to the abnormal place, and he didn't go far before he found that the road in front of him was the same road they had walked when they followed the tanuki spirit last night.
"Senior, did you know that place was an anomaly last night?"
Du Yushang said: "Well, in a small place like Qili County, it is unlikely that there are two abnormal places, so the place where the tanuki cultivates is the abnormal place mentioned by the county order, plus when I flew up last night, I saw a river near that place, so I can basically be sure." ”
"Why did the seniors choose to do it during the day? If that tanuki spirit gets angry and hurts mortals, won't we be in vain with cause and effect?" "Because most of the monks are worshiped by mortals, this is already a layer of cause and effect, and if there is no reason to slaughter mortals, it will be a great cause and effect. And once the monk is riddled with cause and effect, his promotion will be affected, and if the cause and effect are too great, it will even lead to the breeding of demons in his heart and his inability to advance.
Du Yushang said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to understand the theory of cause and effect at a young age, not bad, yes, you can teach." If there are a few more people like you who understand the path of the Tao, there will be a lot of harmony, but unfortunately, even if some people know the way of cause and effect, they don't believe in this evil, and they owe a lot of cause and effect, and eventually harm others and themselves. You can rest assured, the tanuki spirit will not burst out and hurt people, this abnormal place has appeared for several years, not only has no people been violated, not even livestock has been killed, it can be seen that it is also running towards the avenue, and will not kill in vain. ”
Lu Bowen was puzzled: "In this way, the tanuki spirit is a good goblin, so isn't it good for us to grab its treasure?"
Du Yushang said: "We robbed its treasures for its good." ”
The corners of Lu Bowen's mouth twitched, thinking that even if you are a senior, you can't force your words to this extent, right, it's okay to rob others of other people's opportunities? I just don't dare to be good for you, otherwise......
Du Yushang sneered: "I know that you must be disappreciative in your heart, and I will tell you about it today, and teach you to be a good man." ”
"You also said, there is nothing else in that cave, just that stone looks like a treasure, to tell you the truth, that stone is really a treasure, otherwise the tanuki spirit will not give up absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and go to the cave to practice at night. If it was another genius treasure, it might have moved back to its own cave to hide, but it was a big stone, it couldn't move away and was reluctant to lose it, and it didn't dare to move the family over, its relatives were probably not into essence and just mortal things, it was very dangerous to live in human towns, so the tanuki spirit could only come here every night to practice, and go back to take care of the relatives during the day.
Now that piece of land has become an abnormal place in the minds of the county commander and the master, it is equivalent to filing a case in Chongxianmen, even if you don't come, there will definitely be someone else to deal with this matter in a year or two, and the result is nothing more than to drive away the tanuki essence and snatch the treasure, or kill the tanuki essence and snatch the treasure, there is no other possibility. If you encounter something that is not particular and murderous, you may even trace it back to the source and end it to the whole family to prevent future troubles.
But fortunately, we came, while it was gone, we took the treasure and left a small piece for it to move back to the cave, so that its relatives could follow it, and maybe there would be a few more goblins, and we would save trouble, so everyone was happy, right?"
Lu Bowen listened to this bunch of rhetoric, and it seemed to be very reasonable, but he always felt that there was something wrong, but even if there was something wrong, he would never dare to refute his predecessors, so he had to humbly say that he was taught.
At the end of the muttering and communication between the two, the so-called "abnormal place" also arrived, and sure enough, it was the piece of land where the hole was found last night, but the hole had been reburied by the tanuki spirit, and it was covered with messy dead grass, which was no different from the surroundings, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a hole there, it really wouldn't have been noticed.
Lu Bowen took out his mortal weapon long sword from the storage bag with his right hand, and pinched a magic talisman in his left hand, his expression was solemn, plus he changed into a new disciple uniform after returning to the post house last night, at this time, he looked white clothes and black hair, white teeth and red lips, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he really had a bit of the demeanor of an immortal master.
"Please also ask the county commander and the master to avoid one or two to avoid accidents. ”
The county commander and the master couldn't wait to retreat as far as possible, and when they heard the words, they ran hundreds of zhang away, and now Lu Bowen can see the two of them, but they can't see the situation near the cave in the flesh, which is really a great joy.
After the two of them walked away, Lu Bowen put away his long sword and spirit rune, and took out a hoe from the storage bag.
“...... You even have such an object as a hoe?" Du Yushang was a little dumbfounded.
Lu Bowen smiled and said, "Be prepared, don't you use it." The tone was still very proud.
Du Yushang sneered: "Well, it can be used, you dig here, I'll dig over there, let's compare who digs the stone first, whoever wins the stone belongs to whom, how?"
Lu Bowen raised his eyes and looked at Du Yusheng's little paws, nodded and said, "Follow the orders of your predecessors." ”
As a result, he had just pulled away the withered grass covering the original cave entrance, revealing the hole that had been filled with earth, and before he could start swinging his little hoe, Du Yushang dug out a big hole in the ground with one paw, and the big stone he saw last night was so clearly exposed in the big pit.

Senior, don't you have a bad conscience when you bully an honest junior like this?
