Three days later.
It rains surprisingly much in autumn, and it rains heavily from morning to night. The rainwater falls down and condenses into lines, like a bead curtain.
Si Ma Fang Street, which looks like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, is like an exquisite ink painting, rendered by a drop of transparent water. The small trees on the street have yellow leaves piled with smoke, and the leaves are swaying when rain falls, giving it a more beautiful feeling than usual.
It’s just that the autumn mood is getting stronger.
After Lin Mo got off work from the yamen, he went to Xiao Zhengyang's place to secretly pick up the promised fireweed, and walked to his residence under an umbrella.
He quite liked walking in the rain. The feeling of the rain curtain falling and no one around made him feel at ease and empty.
But just as he turned into the street and was about to arrive at his residence, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
The paper umbrella rose slightly, revealing a fair and rough face.
In front of his yard, under the eaves, stood a figure in green.
A beautiful green flower umbrella is leaning on the shoulder, as if reading the couplets on both sides of the mahogany gate of the courtyard.
The person is not too tall, to be precise, he should be very short. He is holding an umbrella, just like a mushroom. From under the long green skirt, you can see the white and tender calves like bamboo shoots.
Lin Mo's nose moved slightly and he smelled a familiar fragrance in the air. He seemed to know who this person was.
But why is she here?
You know, the two of them only met once, and they never crossed paths again after that.
He thought for a while and continued to approach, just deliberately making some noise as a reminder.
But what made Lin Mo a little weird was that even though his voice was loud enough, the people in front still didn't seem to hear him.
No, it didn't seem like it, I really didn't hear it... because the other party's breathing rhythm and heart rate did not change at all.
Finally, Lin Mo had walked about two or three steps behind him. Seeing that he still didn't respond, he had no choice but to pause and cough twice.
When the woman heard the noise, she jumped up and turned around like a frightened rabbit.
Sure enough, it was the woman I met at Mo's Bookstore before. Her name seemed to be Yun Shiya?
When the woman saw that the person coming was Lin Mo, her vigilance disappeared from her face, she put away her umbrella, looked up at Lin Mo, then bowed and saluted.
"Your name seems to be Yun Shiya? Why, does Li Deyi have something to do with me?"
Lin Mo accepted the bow with peace of mind, took out the key and opened the door, and asked.
In his opinion, the only connection between the two of them was Li Deyi, the manager of Mo's Bookstore.
"That's...no,...Uncle Li is fine for the time being. It's just that I saw that you were interested in these books, so I specially selected some similar ones and sent them to you."
Yun Shiya stuttered a little at first, and her fair face was as red as an apple, but she was not an ordinary person after all, and she spoke more and more fluently.
After finishing speaking, he turned around, lifted up a small box hidden behind his back, and handed it to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo felt a little confused, but he still took it.
There were six books in the bookcase, bound with animal skin threads, all of a certain age. The first one was the miscellany he read in the bookstore three days ago.
I casually flipped through the other books, and sure enough, some were titled "Huaizhou Travel Notes" and some were titled "Miscellaneous Affairs of the Seven Seas." Sure enough, they were all similar anecdotes.
"I'm interested." Lin Mo looked back and said softly.
He had a good memory, so he naturally discovered that several of the books were not available in bookstores at that time. It must have taken a lot of effort for the other party to find them all.
"What do you... want me to do for you, or do you want to know anything? As long as the value of these toys is equal to the value of these toys, I can help you." He looked directly at the other person's somewhat evasive eyes and said seriously.
Since the other party was so discerning and he happened to be interested in these books, he didn't mind giving him a chance.
Yes, with Lin Mo's current strength, even a simple promise is an extremely precious opportunity for a little girl who is only in the physical realm.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood Shiya. I...I just want to make friends with you."
Yun Shiya looked at the still deep eyes and felt a little dazed without realizing it. When she realized what Lin Mo said, she waved her hands and said.
"Friend?" Lin Mo looked down at the little girl in front of him with some surprise, who could only reach his belly.
Yun Shiya nodded seriously.
"Rely on your family at home and rely on your friends when you go out. As a human being, the more friends you have, the better."
interesting.
Lin Mo felt his pounding heartbeat, his face was calm, and he raised the book box in his hand.
"Then we are friends now."
After saying that, he looked at the horizon. It was already covered with dark clouds, and the dark clouds were stacked together like a net.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, it's best to go home quickly, otherwise it will rain heavily later and your little umbrella won't be able to protect you."
No matter what the other person’s intention is, whether it is a whim or someone else’s instigation, when the decision-making power is in your own hands, many of the things that were originally annoying are not worth thinking about if you think about it carefully.
Because there is no need.
After he finished speaking, he clicked, took out the key, and pushed the door open.
"Please wait." Just as Lin Mo stepped through the door with one foot, the corner of his clothes was grabbed by white and tender hands.
"Since we are friends, can I ask you a question?"
When Lin Mo paused, Yun Shiya raised her head high, looked directly into Lin Mo's eyes, and asked softly.
"Say." Lin Mo said calmly.
"I...I know why you came here from Lingmiaofang. Of course, I really didn't mean to inquire about your privacy. I want to ask you, do you hit the people around you for no reason? Beating for no reason, just beating when you’re in a bad mood?”
"..." Lin Mo.
He was stunned by this inexplicable question.
He is obviously ready to ask some private questions, such as how long he will serve in Si Ma Fang Yamen, whether he can be of any help, and what his current level of strength is...
The result...that's it?
Do you hit people for no reason or when you are in a bad mood? What the hell?
"No." Lin Mo frowned, but still said seriously.
Yun Shiya seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, loosening her hand from Lin Mo's clothes, and said some vague words, as if that's okay?
"Is everything okay?"
Lin Mo asked again.
He put his hands behind his back and shook his head vigorously.
Lin Mo nodded and thought for a while.
"Although the effect of Thirteen Qi and Blood Pills is good, for women, it is best not to use it during certain special periods, otherwise it may have bad effects."
He said that and stepped into the door.
Yun Shiya was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't understand Lin Mo's words at all. She was stunned for a moment, her fair face turned red again, and she suddenly retracted her head.
When the door was about to close, she nodded, "Remember to tell me what other books you want to read."
Lin Mo's eyes flickered and he finally nodded back.
With a creak, the red door closed.
Yun Shiya stood in front of the gate, still raising her head blankly. Then her neck felt a little sore before she came back to her senses. She touched her face, which was still a little hot, and leaned against the gate, not knowing what she was thinking.
Bang!
A flash of electric snake and a sudden sound of thunder woke the girl up. She quickly ran to the servants holding a green umbrella, and then took a car home.
...
Return to your residence.
Lin Mo took out a book called "Miscellaneous Affairs of the Seven Seas" from the book box. It mainly talked about the secrets of the Seven Seas. About the shark clan, it was a bit like Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea in the previous life, which was quite interesting.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, at least it can be used to pass the time in leisure time.
After reading, he put these ancient books on the bookshelf, grabbed some meat to eat, and then began to continue practicing.
The main time is still spent on the Stone Buddha Tathagata Sutra.
Reaching the Deep Realm of Wrath Phase, Lin Mo finally discovered the wonder of this technique passed down from the Stone Buddha Forest.
Most of the exercises are practiced quickly in the early stage and slowly in the later stage. They progress from easy to difficult and advance step by step.
However, this technique is the opposite. The further you go, the faster you practice. When performing the technique, the energy, blood, and mind energy seem to be ignited, and the faster they boil.
On the bright side, it is a good thing. After all, when warriors fight for their lives, the faster the better.
It's just that the sword has its edge, and everything has its pros and cons.
The more the Qi, blood and mind are boiling and activated, the more difficult it is to control. Just like there is no handbrake on a highway, once a mistake is made, it will lead to the consequences of going crazy.
For example, if the Tathagata energy is out of control, petrification will occur...
This is also the reason why most of the members of the Lin family's Zhongming clan will have parts of their bodies petrified, and in just a few years, the Lin family has given birth to many strong masters, catching up with the established county wealthy families.
According to Lin Mo's estimation, the activation level of the mind power of the Stone Buddha Tathagata Sutra Sutra is probably several times higher than the body power of the castrated version of the Stone Buddha...
Why is it the same as evil power...
Lin Mo was speechless.
Generally speaking, the evil cultivation methods of the Left Way are so fast and powerful, but in the end most practitioners will go astray due to problems with the cultivation methods. If good, they will stagnate at this state, and if bad, they will die. Elimination is not impossible.
Fortunately, due to the talent beads, this kind of kung fu that tests control and comprehension is exactly what Lin Mo is good at, otherwise he really wouldn’t know how to deal with it.
He originally wanted to wait until his strength reaches a certain level, then spread out parts of the Stone Buddha Tathagata Solitary Sutra to enhance the family's power. From this point of view, if it is really taken out, it may not be a good thing, and it needs to be considered in the long term. .
But fortunately, Lin Mo's progress was getting faster and faster by using the evil method of Sutra, which was so fast that he was a little surprised. He was afraid that it wouldn't take long to finish tempering his liver.
This is another level of gain and loss.
After making a plan in his mind, Lin Mo took out the fire sorrel, used flint to raise a pot of flames, and planted the fire sorrel in it.
It is now in the bud stage and has not fully bloomed yet. It will take time. When it blooms, fire slurry will flow out and the temperature will be so high that even the master will be scalded. At that time, it will be impossible to transport it.
This is also the reason why all the products shipped are in the bud stage.
When everything was ready and the chores were completed, Lin Mo began to continue practicing. Without hesitation, he started to sprint towards the master.
.....
the other side.
Yun Shiya did not go back to Yun's house, but went directly to Mo's house.
The Yun and Mo families are recent in-laws. Yun Shiya's mother and Mo Shiqi's mother are sisters. The two grew up together and have a very close relationship.
When Yun Shiya arrived at Mo's house, there was a thunderous sound and the rain became heavier and heavier.
She was not in the mood to rejoice that she had timed it just right. When she walked in, she felt as if she had arrived at her own home, and rushed towards the backyard of Mo's house happily.
Everything went smoothly, and when I arrived at a large room, I pushed the door directly and entered.
The room is obviously a women's boudoir, consisting of pink and green. The decoration is very exquisite. There are several spiritual plants similar to money trees planted in the corners, exuding a faint fragrance.
In front of the tall hollow nine-phoenix dressing table, a beautiful woman with a delicate appearance and dressed in home clothes was sitting.
The woman is also in her early twenties, in her prime, with fair skin and jade-like skin, a slender figure, waist-length black hair, and a gentle and jade-like appearance, making it easy for others to like her.
"Huh? It's raining heavily today. You didn't sleep at home and rested. Instead, you went out and came to my place. Have you really changed your temper?"
The woman was sitting in front of the dressing table, reading a book under the bright glass light, glanced at the visitor, and smiled.
Her name is Mo Shiqi, and she is the legitimate daughter of the Mo family, Mo Xiutang, the daughter of a great writer, and Yun Shiya's cousin.
"Hey, it's a good thing that I came to see you in this weather." Yun Shiya closed the door to prevent rainwater from flying in, and lifted a chair to sit next to Mo Shiqi.
"Cousin, didn't you say that my uncle found a blind date for you? I've seen it!"
"Oh?" Mo Shiqi was stunned, looking away from the scroll and looking at Yun Shiya who looked happy.
"Have you seen it?"
Yun Shiya nodded, not knowing what she was thinking of, her face turned red again, and she smiled shyly.
"Cousin, you should be really interested this time." She said softly, her eyes rolling on the window engraved with blooming flowers.
"He is just like my uncle. He is a very down-to-earth person. At first glance, he is not a playboy. He has a bad heart. He also likes reading. You know, people who like reading are definitely good.
The most important thing is that he is tall and tall. He can definitely protect you, cousin, and support the Mo family's business! "
"Oh? It seems that you have a good impression of him." Mo Shiqi's face remained unchanged, with a gentle smile still hanging on her gentle face.
"Yes, and even though that guy looks dull, he is still quite enthusiastic and gentle. He said he would not hit people randomly." Yun Shiya said with a smile. After speaking, her smile faded.
"By the way, cousin, didn't you make an appointment to meet earlier? Why should I meet first?"
She was a little confused.
You must know that two months ago, she heard Mo Shiqi mention this matter.
Mo Shiqi fell silent, put down the book in her hand, rubbed the head of the cousin in front of her, and said seriously:
"Shiya, some people really can't tell the good or bad just by looking at the surface. It takes investigation and starting from the details of their lives to truly understand their nature."
After finishing the conversation, Yun Shiya was stunned.
She was not stupid. It didn't take long for her to think of something and subconsciously said,
"What's wrong with Brother Lin? I think it's pretty good. I've also investigated it."
She was a little unconvinced.
Mo Shiqi sighed, took out a piece of letter paper from the drawer, put it on the table, and picked up some words at random:
"Lin Mo has outstanding talent and strong practical ability, but he has an indifferent temperament and is good at forbearing, but he is a bit violent... When he was in Lingxi Villa, due to a verbal conflict, he abolished two senior brothers in one fell swoop, offending the other courtyard. The head of the Yunying Academy of Cihang's lineage was fined to serve in Si Ma Fang Yamen...
After entering Si Ma Fang, he was also indifferent and calm. He didn't like to get together with others, didn't like to do paperwork, and preferred to live alone...
...My family is poor. I have a father, a mother, a sister and a brother in the countryside..."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Yun Shiya quietly.
"In fact, everything is fine. It's just that it's a bit difficult to offend the head of Yunying. You know how powerful the head of the first house of Lingxi Villa is. This has already destined him not to enter the Lingtai Sect, and not the Lingtai Sect. For us What’s the value of the Mo family?”
