Lin Ji slowly opened his eyes.
What comes into view is an unfamiliar room.
"Are you awake?" Lu Zhaoer's voice sounded from the side.
Lin Ji was startled and turned to look at her.
"What's wrong with me?"
His memory only lasted until he fell unconscious and fell to the ground.
Lu Zhaoer smiled bitterly and shook his head, but then suddenly withdrew the catkins placed in Lin Ji's palm.
Lin Ji only realized this at this time, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Lu Zhaoer lowered his head, stood up and said, "I'll call Taoist Tianji here."
She left the room as if running away, but not long after, she came back with Tianji.
As soon as he saw Tianji, Lin Ji couldn't help but ask: "Why did I faint before?"
"You were injured in the Dragon Head Land."
"Injured? Why didn't I know...wait!"
Lin Ji thought about it for a moment and finally remembered.
At that time, just as he was preparing to escape with the pig keel, he felt a sudden pain in his heart.
At that time, he didn't take it seriously. When he turned around, he saw Master Zhang Mi standing in front of the evil Buddha, so he thought he was in danger.
Lin Ji quickly wanted to take off his clothes to see the injury, but just after taking off half of his clothes, he remembered that Lu Zhaoer was still in the room.
"I've seen it a long time ago. I changed all your clothes." Lu Zhaoer said expressionlessly.
Only then did Lin Ji realize that the clothes he was wearing were no longer the same clothes as before.
Looking at Lu Zhaoer again, although her face was expressionless, Lin Ji always felt that she was tensing up.
But after all, it comes from modern society. Lu Zhaoer doesn't care, and Lin Ji naturally doesn't care about these details.
He took off his clothes directly, and then he saw a black hole on his heart.
Also use spiritual consciousness to look inside.
It was a mass of black energy that penetrated his entire chest from the back of his heart. It looked terrifying, but now he didn't feel any pain.
"This..." Lin Ji felt a little numb and looked at Tianji, waiting for the answer.
"This is the evil Buddha's trick. I have nothing to do." Tianji shook his head.
Lin Ji's complexion changed slightly.
After using his spiritual consciousness to explore for a moment, he could clearly feel that the black energy was devouring his vitality, and the speed was not too slow.
"After you fainted, Fang Yunshan also came to see you, but he was also at a loss."
Tianji said: "You should be lucky. This black energy seems to be the result of some kind of resentment. If an ordinary person is penetrated by this black energy in his heart, he will never survive for a moment or three! But you can resist it, as if there is something here. Just resist it, but the speed at which this black energy swallows up your vitality is not very fast."
"What's there to be thankful for? It's just that I resisted temporarily and didn't die. Isn't it the same thing?" Lin Ji frowned slightly and asked directly, "How long can I live?"
"As short as one year, as long as three years."
Tianji thought about it and added: "Of course, if you can break through to the fifth realm of night travel within a year and extend your life span by a hundred years, you may be able to live for a few more years."
"What method can be used to completely resolve this black energy?" Lin Ji asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know. This is my first time encountering it, so I can't think of a solution for the moment."
"Then I can only wait to die?"
Tianji shook his head.
"The world is full of wonders, and nothing is completely absolute, even if it is an evil Buddha. You can always find a solution. Furthermore, maybe after you break through the realm, this black energy will not be a concern. It’s still unknown.”
"I hope so." Lin Ji sighed.
After putting on his clothes, he went to the ground to move around for a while, and then ran the Heavenly Kung Fu for a few weeks.
Fortunately, this black energy only swallowed up his vitality and did not affect the operation of his spiritual energy.
It’s enough that you can still practice and fight with others.
"Is the matter of the Demon Suppression Tower over now?" Lin Ji asked.
"For now." Tianji stroked the beard on his chin again.
"What does temporary mean?"
"It is impossible to use the evil Buddha's treasure to control the dragon veins of Jiuzhou." Tianji said with a smile.
Lin Ji couldn't help but frown.
It's not because there will be a follow-up to this matter, but because this damn Tianji started playing riddles again.
The Riddler is disgusting.
But after Tianji said this, Lin Ji remembered it.
When he first met the Liangcheng Ghost King, the Liangcheng Ghost King mentioned that he had devoured an entire layer of ghosts to achieve the level of the Ghost King.
At that time, Lin Ji felt that something was wrong with the Demon Suppression Tower.
How come the most important treasure of the country is the same as an evil thing that raises gu?
However, this thought only flashed in Lin Ji's mind for a moment, and then he put it behind him.
Whatever happens, it has nothing to do with him.
He didn't want to get involved in anything until he solved the black energy in his heart.
Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer.
"Is your injury okay?"
"It's nothing serious."
"That's good, how long did I sleep this time?"
"Three days."
"What's the situation outside now?"
"Your Majesty has promoted many close associates to fill the positions of ministers who were killed previously. Now the court has stabilized." Lu Zhaoer replied.
"Where's Supervisor Tiansi?"
"It is Fang Tianguan who is in charge of the overall situation."
"I'm going to the Chief Office of the Supervisor Tiansi."
After standing up, Lin Ji paused again and bowed deeply to Lu Zhaoer.
"Thank you very much for taking care of Lu Youxing these days."
"As I said, just call me Zhao'er in private." Lu Zhaoer lowered his head and said.
Lin Ji pursed his lips, saluted again, and then left the room without saying anything.
It is most difficult to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman.
What's more, he is ill now, and he doesn't know how long he can live until the hidden dangers are solved.
…
Supervisor Tiansi, the general office.
When Lin Ji arrived here, he found that there were guards standing guard at the entrance of the general office.
Two monks from the third realm.
The former Chief Office of Supervisor Tiansi did not have such a posture.
"It seems that the situation is far from relaxing."
However, when Gao Qunshu left, Supervisor Tiansi was immediately leaderless.
Although Fang Yunshan climbed up, compared to Gao Qunshu, Fang Yunshan was still a little behind.
After handing over the golden beheading order, the guard turned around and went in to report.
After just waiting for a moment, there was a reply saying that Fang Yunshan was waiting inside.
This time there was no one to lead the way.
But Lin Ji had been here once, so he was familiar with the road and quickly found the study room that originally belonged to Gao Qunshu.
The door to the study room was open, and Fang Yunshan was inside.
Before Lin Ji knocked on the door, Fang Yunshan raised his head and said, "Come in."
"Master Fang."
"How is your health?" Fang Yunshan asked.
Lin Ji shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, Fang Yunshan sighed softly.
"I'm also helpless. The evil Buddha's methods are weird and very troublesome."
Fang Yunshan asked again: "Why are you here looking for me?"
"A lower-ranking official comes to resign in order to survive."
Fang Yunshan nodded.
"That's right. If you don't solve the hidden dangers in your body, I guess you won't be interested in doing errands."
Hearing this, Lin Ji directly placed the Jin Zhanling on the desk, bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Fang. I will take my leave."
Before he could move, Fang Yunshan laughed helplessly.
"You changed your tune quickly enough. I allowed you to step down as the chief arrester of Liangzhou, but I didn't allow you to quit the Tiantian Division."
Lin Ji was stunned.
"Sir, then I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Fang Yunshan threw a token over.
When Lin Ji picked it up, he found that it was actually a Traveling Star Order.
"You Xingguan is traveling around the world, so why don't you go around the world and see if you can find a way to cure the disease?"
Fang Yunshan stood up, came to Lin Ji, and patted his shoulder.
"Lin Youxing, you must live longer."
Lin Ji was silent for a moment and bowed.
"I'm your Majesty...just do your best."
