"Mr. Wen, believe me?" Lin Xi suddenly felt inexplicably moved.
As a demon who feeds on human souls, it is really a shame for a demon to be trusted by 'food'!
"You are a special demon. Your Majesty...and the three hundred thousand miles of the evil world, Wen has entrusted it to you." Wen Yuanxiang looked at Lin Xi calmly as if some heavy burden had been lifted. .
Lin Xi didn't complain about Wen Yuanxiang. What kind of confidence did he have to say that he entrusted the emperor and Da Zou Jiangshan?
After all, as a relegated criminal, he didn't seem to have the position to say these words.
"In that case...then let go of your mind and don't resist." Don't take advantage of others. This is not the reason why Lin Xi is a devil.
No matter what Wen Yuanxiang thinks, at this moment, Lin Xi will not give up on the delicious food that is about to enter his mouth.
Wen Yuanxiang's soul opened its arms.
In Lin Xi's eyes, all the light emanating from Wen Yuanxiang's soul was taken back into his soul.
Lin Xi's clone turned into a dark cloud again, hovering and then suddenly swooping towards Wen Yuanxiang's soul and covering it.
Suddenly a trance!
Lin Xi accepted everything from Wen Yuanxiang.
The consciousness belonging to Wen Yuanxiang has been swallowed by him.
Possessed his soul and stole his body.
From this moment on, Lin Xi...is Wen Yuanxiang.
"My body is so tired! It's so heavy... What's wrong with me?" Lin Xi had just taken over Wen Yuanxiang's body and felt as if a big mountain was pressing down on him.
He tried hard to open his eyes, but he only felt that the thin eyelids were very heavy.
"It's Wen Yuanxiang's body. His body is on the verge of running out of oil and drying up. I'm afraid he will die soon!" Lin Xi had no choice but to consume a trace of his demonic origin and seduce wisps of evil spirit. , according to the Ningbi Zhenjue's movement method, slowly flowed in Wen Yuanxiang's body, trying to make up for the shortcomings of his physical body.
Although the evil spiritual energy is essentially harmful to the physical body.
However, the level of Ningbi Zhenjue is not low, and with the particularity of the technique, it can temporarily suppress some disadvantages.
After all, it's this time. Compared with two evils, whichever is the lesser.
I waited until I could barely do my exercises and walked three rounds.
Lin Xi finally regained some strength and opened his eyes tiredly.
I heard some rapid footsteps and some people's noisy shouts.
His hazy vision gradually settled into focus.
There are leaky roofs, collapsed stone lions, dusty plaques, and a few old and disabled officials wearing patched official uniforms.
"This is the county government office in the border town of Shannan." Lin Xi came to this conclusion.
The next moment, someone opened his mouth and forced a bowl of bitter concoction into his throat.
Lin Xi vowed... to swallow this rude guy's soul.
Coughing vigorously, Lin Xi gathered some strength and stood up from the straw mat.
Looking at the nearly endless vast mountains in the distance, a surge of pride suddenly surged in my heart: "Yong'an City... I will definitely go back as Wen Yuanxiang! This time... it will be better than the last time Wen Yuanxiang When Yuan Xiang entered the capital, he was even more prosperous!"
"Master! There are a total of 375 people in our county. They are all here and waiting outside the county office. Do you want to meet?" The guy who had given Lin Xi the concoction poked his head out from the side. Come, interrupt Lin Xi's sudden surge of lofty ideals, and drag him back to reality.
With his big bald head, blue eyes, and short figure, he looks like a weirdo.
But...it seems that he is also a rare young man in the entire county government.
What's even more rare is that Lin Xi also felt a little bit of the aura of a cultivator from him.
Unlike ordinary Qi practitioners, this weirdo doesn't seem to be following the path of Qi training.
Lin Xi couldn't tell what it was exactly.
Although he is a demon, he possesses some memories inherited from his talent, and according to his evolution, he is constantly awakening and completing more memories.
But the rules of practice for beings in the material world are still entry-level.
The only knowledge he had came from the memories of Wei Lingfeng and Li Ming.
Lin Xi naturally wouldn't know what they didn't know.
"Help me out!" Lin Xi stretched out his hand.
"Here's a walking stick!" Qi Pao handed over an obviously perfunctory wooden stick.
Taking the stick, Lin Xi was even more sure... he must eat this weird thing.
Outside the county government office, all the people that caught his eye were the old, weak, sick and disabled, just as Lin Xi expected.
The border city in the south of the mountain is adjacent to millions of barbaric mountains. Apart from the barbarians and countless monsters in the mountains, there is nothing special about this place.
In Wen Yuanxiang's memory, Million Barbarians Mountain has always been a hunting ground for barbarians.
Unless they want to start a war with thousands of large and small barbarian tribes in the Million Barbarian Mountains, outsiders are not allowed to casually step into the Million Barbarian Mountains to hunt monsters and beasts, and collect rare fruits, spiritual herbs and flowers.
The barbarians also followed the agreement signed with the ancient Xian Dynasty thousands of years ago and tried their best to prevent the millions of monsters in the barbarian mountains from leaving the mountains and forests on a large scale and invading the cities outside the mountains and forests.
The ancient balance and contract have been maintained for many years, as if they have become destiny's rules and can no longer be modified.
Therefore, this border city in the south of the mountain is often a place where sinners are sent to prison and lawbreakers are exiled.
After the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, no one has been exiled to the border city in the south of the mountain for more than ten years.
Wen Yuanxiang... was the first.
After looking at the people he was about to manage, Lin Xi was not dissatisfied.
There are also benefits for the old, weak, sick and disabled.
At least it won't cause him any trouble.
After saying a few words casually, the people dispersed.
Lin Xi looked at the county government office, which was almost in ruins, and had no intention of repairing it.
Once a poor and simple nest is made too comfortable and warm, you may be reluctant to leave.
Just like the years of poverty and tranquility, once you get used to the flow, you begin to be content with being ordinary and lose ambition.
The only three old officials in the county government were dismissed, two veteran government officials who were lame and missing hands, and that weirdo.
Lin Xi began to sort through Wen Yuanxiang's memories and look for opportunities to "get out of trouble".
In the past, Wen Yuanxiang became an official in Dingyou. After the three-year mourning period, he was welcomed into the new dynasty by the ministers and took charge of Xiangyin.
That's what everyone expected.
Wen Yuanxiang himself did not say it, but Lin Xi already knew at this moment that Wen Yuanxiang was the number one scholar in Yin Feng for three years, editor of the Hanlin Academy for three years, and imperial envoy for five years, all of which were extremely noble official positions.
Afterwards, he took charge of the government, intensively cultivated water conservancy, opened mountains and expanded fields, and organized monks to hunt monsters in places frequented by people.
When his official career was prosperous, he was already a third-rank official.
However, at the peak of his career, because his mother died of illness, he took the initiative to ask the late emperor three times, resigned from his official position, and returned to his hometown Dingyou to observe filial piety for his mother.
Even if the late emperor tried to win his love, he could not retain him.
But stopping there, Wen Yuanxiang's resume can be described as glorious.
The late emperor was a kind and benevolent man. Although he knew that the country was in great trouble and land annexation was serious, he could not bear to stir up disputes, which aroused the excitement among the people and made the people's lives more difficult.
He only opened the inner treasury repeatedly, reduced palace expenses, and promoted frugality and diligence.
It can only be regarded as barely maintaining balance.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, he was in his prime and full of ambitions.
They want to complete land rectification and reallocation of resources through reforms.
So Wen Yuanxiang was activated.
Although Wen Yuanxiang knew that this was a road of no return, he was willing to play a game for the sake of the people of the world.
But he never thought that the new emperor would regret it so quickly after facing real pressure.
"In other words, Wen Yuanxiang is already a complete abandoned son. Unless he has some specific value, the best ending is to die in this barren mountainous border town."
"So the first task is to find new value." Lin Xi stroked his beard.
This is also Wen Yuanxiang's habit, Lin Xi... just inherited this habit.
This time, Lin Xi was not worried about being easily seen through his lies.
Except because, he has evolved.
What's more, Wen Yuanxiang's soul itself is different from ordinary people. His natural light can resist the prying eyes of many wills, even if it is not invulnerable to all laws.
As long as Lin Xi doesn't leak the devil's aura himself, or has a real Yuanshen to spy carefully with his Yuanshen, there should be... no risk of being exposed.
“To get your chance back, you have to take a risk.”
"If there is anything in the land south of the mountains that still has a certain value, it is the endless treasures buried in these millions of barbarian mountains... and the powerful and barbaric barbarian tribes."
"Digging for treasures... I am not a professional. In fact, most demons have no talent in this area. There are very few mutant species, which are also rare. But the barbarian tribe... can make some ideas!"
"Converting exports to domestic sales is a good direction." Lin Xi had already made a rough draft in his mind in just a few seconds.
However, he was not in a hurry to practice.
Even if you are a demon, you must learn to grow from setbacks and losers.
Although Lin Xi's last experience was not a failure.
But it's not perfect after all.
This is because he often just thinks about it and then does it.
Only knows how to think vertically, not horizontally.
Combining many experiences in Wen Yuanxiang's memory, Lin Xi spent three days in seclusion in the county government office and then worked out a nearly perfect plan.
As for perfect plans... they never exist.
Wait until the wind and snow in the border town subsides a little.
Lin Xi found the mountain treasure.
That's the weird one.
"I need you to take me into the mountains to find the nearest barbarian tribe." Lin Xi said to Shan Bao.
The mountain treasure monster rolled his eyes and said rudely: "You are no longer alive? If you are no longer alive, bury yourself in the ground. Barbarian? Do you know what a barbarian is?"
"We call them barbarians, but they don't think of themselves as human beings."
"If someone like you enters a barbarian tribe, I'm sure you will take it to them and make a pot of old soup."
