The atmosphere in the courtyard was somewhat solemn, and a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.
When it was almost time to see people arriving, there was a shrill sound of the suona.
An old man in a gray coat walked to the other side of the high platform while playing the suona, followed closely by two apprentices.
This is Wang Suona from the east side of the city. He is not very strong, but is only in the realm of establishing a destiny. However, his family has passed down a suona music skill. He has excellent craftsmanship and specializes in weddings and funerals. His business is very good.
The intermittent sound of the suona was melancholy, hoarse and desolate, and the memorial ceremony officially began.
First, several close disciples of Yunying came forward. Each of them looked pale, their eyes were red, and their bodies were trembling. They jumped on him and began to cry.
As Yunying's disciples, they have the best training conditions in other courtyards.
Whether it is resources or guidance, it can be said that he is the best, but he is about to join the sect and enter a strange environment. The teacher who has always had a high status and a huge network of connections is beaten to death.
This kind of gap is enough to make people feel hesitant and at a loss.
Then the teachers from other courtyards came forward to lay flowers.
At this time, even the elders of his lineage who usually had little dealings with Yunying couldn't help but feel sad.
No matter how unpopular Yunying was in other houses in the past and how domineering she was, she still belonged to the Lingtai Sect and represented the Lingtai Sect's appearance just like them.
And even those with such a powerful position died violently for no reason, which is conceivable for ordinary teachers like them.
After that, it was the turn of ordinary disciples.
Lin Mo also stepped forward and put down a white flower.
There was no other emotion at all, neither the joy of revenge, nor the sadness, only a hint of complexity.
It seemed that he did not expect that Yunying would die suddenly.
Pei Yuandao withdrew his gaze, thought to himself, and resumed a detailed conversation with the person next to him from the Shangzong.
Returning to the audience, Lin Mo felt the gaze disappear from his body and regained his composure.
In a time of great disaster and chaos, he rose from humble beginnings and knew early on that human life was thinner than paper. Regardless of status and power, as long as his strength was low, his life could be lost at any time.
For example, Yunying just happened to be beaten to death by him.
Therefore, he will naturally not have any unnecessary psychological fluctuations.
Afterwards, Shi Yi also came down from the stage, and when he walked to Lin Mo's side, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore and started laughing.
"Death is the most important thing." Lin Mo reminded.
The main reason is that he is afraid that this kid will be hated and targeted by those who are close to Yunying because of these trivial things.
"Oh, it's not that I want to laugh, but I'm just so happy..." Shi Yi turned his head to Lin Mo's shoulder and whispered.
"..." Lin Mo was speechless. He seemed to have underestimated this boy's hatred for Yunying...
After a few breaths, he finally returned to normal.
"By the way, will anything happen later?" Shi Yi asked after the situation calmed down.
"Is something wrong?"
"Have you forgotten? I'm about to officially become a full-time employee, but my position is not in Si Ma Fang, but in the north of the city. I will take office soon. I want to invite some friends to get together before I leave."
Shi Yi sighed a little.
Because of his uncle, he could not directly work in Si Ma Fang Yamen. He could only take a roundabout way and go elsewhere first, wait until his uncle was transferred, and then transfer him back.
This place is in the north of the city, and the location is quite far away. It can also be considered as a lower-level person to supplement seniority.
"North of the city? I'm afraid it won't work today. Master Xue may have something to do later."
Lin Mo pondered for a moment and said.
"I understand, okay, let's change the time."
Lin Mo nodded.
This memorial ceremony did not last long, and it ended after another cup of tea.
The crowd dispersed.
As Lin Mo expected, just after they were dismissed, a junior fellow student came over and said that Master Xue was summoned.
Along with him were Huang Wan, Zhang Long, and other talented first-class disciples from the two lineages.
They were all led to a bamboo forest in the inner palace. At this time, someone was quarreling in the forest.
"Junior sister Yunying had two injuries. The fatal injury was a broken neck and suffocation. The non-fatal injury was the violent force being thrown into her body. The energy should have a special effect of exploding, so the body was broken."
The voice was familiar to Lin Mo and others, it was Xue Rui.
"I dare to ask Junior Brother Xue, the willpower that can explode Junior Sister Yunying's ice muscles and jade bones must not be an ordinary method, but it can kill with one strike, and the strength should be that of a master. With such strength, he has a grudge against Junior Sister, Junior Brother Xue Rui has been working in Huaiping for many years, does he really have no impression at all?!"
A female voice, with a sharp voice, was questioning.
It was obviously suspected that Xue Rui knew about it but did not report it.
"Senior Sister Hanshuang, if you ask like this again, don't blame me for not being able to answer, Junior Brother!
Junior sister Yunying has a wide range of friends and is cautious. How can ordinary people know about her feuding relationship?
In addition, your Cihang lineage is plotting such a big thing, involving several masters, and Xue does not dare to go deep into it. "
Speaking of this, Xue Rui also became a little angry.
"you!……"
Soon, probably knowing that Lin Mo and the others had arrived, the voice stopped.
Xue Rui walked out with a tired look on his face, waved to Lin Mo and others, and walked to another bamboo house together.
There is no difference from what Huang Wanyan said. The main purpose is to inform Lingtai that someone from our sect has arrived, and the assessment will begin soon, so that all disciples should be prepared and not to show off their bravery recently and injure their bodies.
He also added that if it is not necessary, do not leave the city or go to the Taihuai Ferry, saying that there is no peace there.
Everyone nodded.
Finally, I focused on answering some assessment precautions, which is the end.
But just when the conversation ended and Lin Mo was about to leave, he was stopped by Xue Rui.
The backyard of the bamboo house.
The two stood under the eaves, watching the gentle breeze and drizzle blowing the bamboo leaves, making a rustling sound, and eventually causing ripples on the surface of the pool.
"Master Xue, is there anything else?"
Lin Mo stretched out his hand, waited for the raindrops to fall across the corners of the eaves and landed on his palm, and asked softly.
Xue Rui sighed softly, his eyes a little complicated.
"Where...were you...that night?"
His voice was very soft, like chatting with a friend.
"Oh? That night? What night?" Lin Mo's face was expressionless.
“The Night of the Black Buddhist Rebellion.”
"Practice at home. After all, martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat."
Lin Mo replied softly.
"Practice is pretty good. Practice in winter and practice in summer. Martial arts is like a river and lake. Once you come in, you can't get out. Once you slack off, your strength will inevitably decline." Xue Rui nodded, his expression as usual,
"But even though you are obsessed with practicing, don't forget one thing." He changed the subject and said.
"Huh?" Lin Mo turned his head.
"Sometimes what you see may not be true. Maybe it's a trick made by someone behind the scenes, specifically targeting you. What they want is for you to be unable to hold back and reveal your flaws."
Xue Rui meant something.
"Bureau..." Lin Mo whispered softly.
"Compared with what is true or false, I believe that if you are weak, whether you are in or out of the game, it will only be a dead end." He looked at Xue Rui, looked slightly serious, and finally replied seriously.
Rather than planning countless conspiracies, he is more accustomed to punching and defeating all methods with one force. He also recognizes that after reaching a certain level of strength, there will be no magic as far as the eye can see.
Xue Rui was startled and a little speechless.
Lin Mo smiled and said no more.
He thought that the finish was very clean. During the battle that night, he even went to great lengths to smooth out the marks without leaving any evidence.
So on the surface, there is no need to worry about any targeting.
As for the dark place...
He was really in the dark, and he really thought that his reputation as a poisonous overlord was just a vegetarian.
Seeing that Lin Mo was calm and composed, Xue Rui finally sighed.
"Yes, I can't guess the thoughts of geniuses like you, but remember one thing, be cautious first. You are not alone now. Believe in the Lingtai lineage and us."
Lin Mo looked at Xue Rui, who had a sincere face and scorching eyes, hesitated for a moment and said nothing.
But after two breaths, he still nodded slightly.
A smile finally appeared on Xue Rui's face.
He started to talk about the secrets of the assessment that others didn't know, and what kind of preferential treatment he could enjoy as a seed. Finally, he talked about the wonders and delicacies on Lingtai Mountain, and he would definitely show Lin Mo how to do it.
Lin Mo listened quietly, feeling calm in his heart.
Xue Rui was right, be cautious in everything, but he couldn't give an answer to the second part of the sentence.
Because he believes in himself more than outsiders.
.....l
Leave Lingxi Villa.
After returning to the residence, the days passed day by day, and everything was calm. Except for another wave of rectification operations in Huaiping City, which arrested many bandits and remaining believers, there was nothing else.
Lin Junyi's side was also arranged by Xiao Zhengyang.
With the current size of the Blue Split Whale, a half-step master was sent directly to lead a team of people to open up channels and help Lin build a new business path.
This man's name was Guan Yingfeng. He was originally a member of the Qionghai Society. He came here after surrendering and wanted to show off. When he heard about this opportunity, he enthusiastically applied for the job and his attitude was very positive.
However, to be cautious, Lin Mo still planted some small things on the other party and informed Lin Junyi and the two of them, just in case.
After that, he no longer paid attention to these trivial matters.
Now that the Blue Split Whale and the Qionghai Association have been reorganized, and the four major families have been united, their channels and interests are completely different. Therefore, the efficiency of collecting Yuan Stones and high-level fire poisons is much higher.
In just a few days this time, he had eaten several yuan stones, and his red energy accumulation was much faster than before, with an increase of more than 0.5%.
You must know that relying solely on time to accumulate these amounts will take at least several months.
And because of the sufficient supply of fire and poison, the Earth Demon Mysterious Technique began to be used on a daily basis again, and the first spiritual seal was condensed with great success by leveraging the momentum from the last time.
The first level of the Earth Demon Mysterious Technique needs to condense nine spiritual seals into the spiritual body, and the resources consumed are becoming more and more terrifying.
It is not a lie that a martial artist practices martial arts, a wealthy couple lives in a lawful place, and a poor scholar is rich in martial arts.
This also proves the correctness of Lin Mo's previous decision to semi-unify the ferry.
Use force to support power, and then use power to supplement force.
Interdependence, complement each other, and progress each other.
In fact, this is also the reason for the formation of wealthy clans.
Over time, if Lin Mo's true strength reaches a certain level, Blue Split Whale might take this opportunity to become a famous sect.
They all promote each other.
As time passed slowly, Shi Yi's transfer order finally arrived.
