Late at night, in the camp of the motorcade.
Lu Cong yawned and sat next to Lin Ji.
"Boss, there are some things I don't know whether I should say or not."
"Is there anything else you can't say in front of me?" Lin Ji closed his eyes to rest and said casually.
Lu Cong glanced at the car over there, then looked at Lin Ji and said: "Boss, you said that girl is a saint of the Holy Fire Sect, why didn't you take her and go with her instead? "
"What to do with her?" Lin Ji opened his eyes and asked in confusion.
Lu Cong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I have seen the situation along the way. It is all because of the barbarians in the north. The people of Yunzhou are living in dire straits. I, Lu Cong, have also seen some tragic things, but like Yunzhou Such..."
He said half of what he said, but Lin Ji understood what he meant.
Along the way, Lin Ji had seen many people freezing to death and starving to death on the roadside.
I have also seen villages that were massacred.
Compared with the other states in the south, the northernmost Yunzhou is really too chaotic.
"What do you want to say?" Lin Ji asked.
Lu Cong hesitated for a moment and said: "The reason why Yunzhou is facing this situation is because the barbarians from the north caused rebellion, and those barbarians are all following the orders of the Holy Fire Cult. They are the enemies of our Great Qin."
"If we are enemies, do we have to fight for life and death?" Lin Ji asked back.
Lu Cong's expression was stagnant, and he subconsciously wanted to nod, but looking at Lin Ji's incomprehensible eyes, he lost the confidence.
"I think it should be like this. Even if you don't take action, you shouldn't get along with them in an arrogant manner... That girl is still a saint of the Holy Fire Cult."
Hearing this, Lin Ji patted Lu Cong's shoulder and sighed softly.
"You've been a head catcher for a while, but still can't you learn to pretend to be confused?"
"I know how to pretend to be confused. Last time a Youxing came to our Qingyang County to look for trouble, I kept asking questions and made that Youxing very angry." Lu Cong said with a grin.
Judging from his proud look, it was obvious that this incident would remain in his mind forever.
"Then what?" Lin Ji asked casually.
"Boss, I understand what you mean." Lu Cong said, "Some things are beyond my control. If you really can't see it, don't look at it. Pretend not to know and be wise to protect yourself. This is all what you taught me, boss. of."
"is that useful?"
"It's useful. We're just a little catcher. We only have a little ability and we don't dare to overdo it."
As he said that, Lu Cong subconsciously looked at his left arm. That arm was obviously whiter and tenderer than his right arm.
This was when he was at a low level, he fought against a ghost and defeated miserably, leaving an arm as the price.
Perhaps it was at that time that he understood what it meant to act within one's ability.
Lin Ji also lowered his head following his gaze.
"Did your master help you treat it?"
"Yes, Master met me in Qingyang County and gave me a pill. After taking the pill, my arms grew. Then he asked me to come to Yunzhou to look for him."
Lu Cong scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I thought I had to repay this kindness, so I resigned and came to Yunzhou."
"That's it." Lin Ji understood.
But Lu Cong said again: "Boss, you haven't told me yet, why do you want to go with the saint of the Holy Fire Sect? I don't have the ability, but you have the ability. The saint can't beat you."
Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief and sat in a comfortable position, leaning against the carriage behind him.
"I taught you to pretend to be stupid before, but then I asked you to act according to your ability. You seem to have learned everything."
"hey-hey."
"I'll teach you another trick. It's up to you whether you learn it or not. It's called complicity."
Lin Ji stretched, closed his eyes again, and muttered softly.
"If a person lives in this world, if there are ten points, there should always be one part greedy for money, two parts lustful, and three parts selfish, and the rest can be conscience."
"How can there be such a clean person? The roots of the white lotus are also in the mud."
Lu Cong shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
"If you don't understand, just figure it out for yourself."
Lin Ji stood up, yawned and then jumped up.
"I don't like brothels because they are too noisy. I hate gamblers the most, but I let the Song brothers open a casino. I disdain corruption, but I still get the benefits that I deserve."
"This is complicity."
"Still don't understand." Lu Cong scratched his head and said.
"You have a bright future. You may become a top monk among monks one day. It's actually a good thing not to understand." Lin Ji said with a smile, "I'm just too oily, and the truth is all wrong."
"The boss's principles are not unreasonable. I have learned them and they are very useful."
"That's because this world is inherently crooked and has never been straightened out. Maybe someone wants to straighten it out, but that person won't be you or me...at least it won't be you and me now. "
After all, Lin Ji's words left some room for error.
"I understand this, just do what you can."
"That's right." The smile on Lin Ji's face grew thicker and he continued, "The Holy Fire Cult may not be a good thing, but that saint has never done any evil. What do you think I should do with her? Besides, we already have A bit of friendship, and the purpose of this trip is the same, so traveling together is no big deal."
"It's about my life. Let's just say I'm traveling with her, the Saint of the Holy Fire Cult. What if I'm traveling with that damn rebel Gao Qunshu?"
Speaking of Gao Qunshu, Lin Ji thought of Tianji again, and his tone became gritty.
The hateful house and the ruins belong to it.
"Boss, if the higher ups find out, they will be punished..."
"Then don't do it. The world is big and the world is not as big as my life."
"Hey, I didn't understand what you said before, but I understand what you said now."
Lin Ji laughed dumbly and flashed.
"Don't wait for me, I will catch up."
After the words fell, Lin Ji had disappeared.
...
In the dense forest, Lin Ji found a big stone facing the moonlight and sat cross-legged.
His injuries have healed, thanks to the addition of Zhang Jing's name in the sixth realm in the Karma Book.
It was he who inflicted the injury, and the healing fell upon him.
Original soup into original food.
After all, he was a sixth-level monk, perhaps because it had been a long time since Lin Ji had broken through to the sixth level.
He felt the loosening of his realm for the first time in a long time.
Facing the moonlight, he secretly ran the Haoqi Art in his body.
Unconsciously, a few hours passed, and the moonlight had turned into sunlight. He did not know how many days he had circulated the spiritual energy in his meridians.
Suddenly, the originally restrained spiritual energy leaked out, the boulders beneath him cracked, and the surrounding trees fell neatly outwards.
The commotion was so big that it startled the birds and beasts in Lin Ji.
Lin Ji breathed a long sigh of relief and opened his eyes slightly.
"The cultivation of the sixth realm is actually simpler. The soul absorbs the power of the sun during the day and the power of the moon at night. Even if you ignore it, it will grow slowly."
"Cultivation is just accumulation. If you have enough spiritual energy, it will come naturally... There may be some risks involved, but it is not difficult for me."
"Haha, we are in the middle of the sixth realm." Lin Ji smiled.
Upgrading and making breakthroughs is always a happy thing!
