Late at night, in the backyard of the government office.
Lin Ji and Feng Zhiruo sat opposite each other, holding Aling, who had a bald patch of hair on his butt, in his arms.
"I told you not to provoke those pigeons. Aren't you asking for trouble?" Lin Ji stroked the cat on Aling's body again and again. Although Aling tried to resist, her resistance was obvious in Lin Ji's hands. It's all in vain.
"That's why I, the girl, don't hesitate to get serious with them."
"It would be really embarrassing for you to get serious with a group of spiritual pigeons." Lin Ji curled his lips and let go of his hand.
Arlington jumped up and landed in Lianyu's arms not far away.
Lin Ji looked at Feng Zhiruo.
"After I leave, you have to pay more attention to the affairs of Victoria. You can't really be idle."
When Feng Zhiruo heard these words, he felt strange.
After living for so many years, it had been too long since anyone had spoken to her like this.
"If you leave and the Palace of Eternal Life tries to attack me again, this mere Supervisor Tiansi Yamen will not be able to protect me." Feng Zhiruo shook his head and said, "I followed you just to seek shelter, and you are no longer here. , I will leave Victoria."
"One year." Lin Ji raised a finger, "You stay here in Victoria for one year. After one year, I will find a way to help you become a Taoist."
Hearing this, Feng Zhiruo raised his brows, but there was no excitement as expected.
"This promise is too far-fetched. In the vast world of Kyushu, only the Palace of Eternal Life can help a person like me who is hiding from the sky to enter Taoism. Why do you deserve it?"
"I still have some connections with Gao Qunshu and those people. After I become a Taoist, I will go to the Buddhist Kingdom to save the old madman Qin Linzhi... You were also present when Gao Qunshu came before. Do you think Qin Linzhi will meet him?" Don’t you know the methods of the Eternal Life Palace?”
These words were indeed a little more convincing, at least Feng Zhiruo's originally calm expression finally became a little more turbulent.
"What if it doesn't work?" she asked, "What if the methods of the Palace of Eternal Life can only work on one person at a time..."
"Then I will help you reincarnate. I remember you said you only have a few years to live in this life?"
"Yes... The lifespan of a day traveler is only three hundred years. I have lived for more than two hundred and sixty years in this life."
Lin Ji nodded slightly.
"Even if you can't get what you want from Qin Linzhi, it is still a clue and a reason... When the time comes, I will help you reincarnate, and there will always be other ways."
Lin Ji's attitude was extremely sincere.
After Feng Zhiruo pondered for a moment, he finally nodded slightly.
"Well, according to your words, I will stay in Victoria for a year...but there is something I have to say first. If things cannot be done, I will put self-protection first."
"This is natural. There is absolutely no reason to risk someone's life by asking for help."
Seeing that Feng Zhiruo agreed, the last stone in Lin Ji's heart fell to the ground.
Feng Zhiruo may not be as strong as him, but he is more than enough to be a town official.
Not all town officials elsewhere in Kyushu are as good at fighting as he is. In comparison, Feng Zhiruo is already a leader in the Japanese travel world.
With her in charge, Lin Ji could leave without any worries.
After finishing the arrangements here, Lin Ji looked at Lianyu and Aling on the other side.
"I'm leaving Weizhou tomorrow. Do you want Lianyu to stay or go to my parents' place?"
"Master, I will just stay in the government office." Lianyu whispered, "Although the master is not here, there is always someone to take care of the back house. Miss Feng has a distinguished status, and I have done some of the servants' work. That’s it.”
Lin Ji nodded slightly.
"Then please trouble Miss Feng to take care of this girl Lianyu."
"It's just a small matter." Feng Zhiruo responded.
After arranging for Lianyu, Lin Ji looked at Aling again.
"What about you? Are you going to stay in Victoria or go on the road with me?"
"Where are you going?" Aling asked.
"I don't know. Let's go to Yunzhou first, and then go all the way south." Lin Jimo said, stroking his chin.
He went to Yunzhou to meet Lu Zhaoer. He didn't want to get involved in the war in the north at all.
In Yunzhou today, there is no Taoist monk from Jian Tiansi, and although the Holy Fire Sect was severely damaged by Shen Long, there are still Taoist monks who are secretly watching.
Going to the battlefield can certainly reap karma, but if one is targeted by the Taoist realm, one's life may not be saved.
Therefore, Lin Ji did not want to wade into this muddy water.
Hearing Lin Ji's words, Aling rolled his eyes and asked: "What about A Bao? He is also following Han Li in Weizhou."
"Ignore them. Although Han Li is only in the Night Travel Realm, he has so many life-saving things on him that he cannot die. As long as he is with him, as long as he is careful, Abao will be fine."
"If you go south, will you go to Yangzhou?"
"Yangzhou?" Lin Ji was stunned.
Aling nodded and said: "Out to the sea from the south of Yangzhou is the Demon Kingdom. If the people in the clan don't come to me, I can always go back by myself."
Lin Ji suddenly realized and chuckled: "I remembered it when you mentioned this. Your Moon Shadow Cat Clan still owes me a ransom."
"I will take you home then, and you can ask my father for it yourself."
"Your Majesty...what kind of cultivation?"
"Demon King."
"hehe."
Lin Ji didn't want to talk nonsense with Aling anymore. He captured his daughter and went to his father to ask for ransom. The man's father was still the demon king.
It takes a lot of brainless people to do this.
And after being together for so long, Lin Ji had long lost the intention of taking the little white cat as a hostage.
"Come on, I still want to live for two more years. I'll treat this trip as sending you back."
"Meow~" Aling responded and curled up in Lianyu's arms again.
After arranging these trivial matters, Lin Ji yawned, stood up and walked towards the study.
When he came to the study, he kept walking and went directly to the side room where Geng Mu was.
Pushing open the door, it was obviously late at night, but Geng Mu was still doing business at his desk.
Seeing Lin Ji, he quickly stood up, but Lin Ji held his shoulders down.
"No need to get up."
"My lord, you are here so late. What do you want to do?"
"How many Yuanjing are there in the warehouse?"
Geng Mu was stunned.
"Including what was sent by various forces before and what was accumulated when Lord Zi Qing was here, there are about seven or eight hundred thousand, right?"
"I want to take away half a million yuan." Lin Ji grinned, "I won't take advantage of it until it's in vain."
The town official was blatantly greedy, and Geng Mu didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, so he could only smile and shake his head.
"Where is the sixth-grade resurrection pill?" Lin Ji asked again.
"More than twenty."
"I'll take five away."
Compared to half a million Yuan Crystals, five Resurrection Pills are nothing.
"Sir, if the higher-ups want to investigate..."
"This book was sent by various sects to settle the matter. Just make a record and pretend that the money does not exist. How long has it been since the Tantric incident? How much inventory can this yamen have? You are right."
"It turns out you have already thought about it."
Lin Ji waved his hand.
“If you don’t take some money with you when you go out, you won’t feel at ease.”
