There were four or five people standing in the guest room in the small courtyard, squeezing the already small room so hard that even daylight couldn't penetrate, but the atmosphere inside the room was solemn.
"Mysterious grass?"
Xia Tian Wu almost burst out in anger, his brows and eyes full of hatred, "Yin Zhong actually secretly put mind-bending grass in these things to make a profit? They are only for the nobles and wealthy merchants, can no one see it?"
The three sects, six sects and ten sects of Zhongzhou drafted a common code of law for Zhongzhou many years ago. The sects and families in each city were established separately. Regardless of the rules of each family, this Zhongzhou law must be abided by.
One of these laws is that the sale of nectar grass is not allowed within Zhongzhou.
At first, the herb was regarded as a medicinal material. Gradually, people discovered that it can make people feel ecstatic and happy, and it is helpful for cultivation and even physical strength. It is not only used before competitions, but also used for enlightenment. Who knows? I know that without realizing it, people become addicted.
If you abstain from taking it for a few days, you will lose your mind and become crazy, which is called the mind-bending grass.
The effect of the medicinal liquid made from this thing is even more extraordinary.
"They named this tobacco leaf Qingxinyan. Only distinguished guests can get access to the real shisha mixed with charm grass. The customers are the ones who have been selected and taken advantage of. Nowadays, many people don't know what charm grass is. This thing has been extinct for nearly a thousand years." Feng Yi said, "As for the dosage of rouge and gouache, it's very small."
Lin Du stared at the confiscated rouge gouache and tobacco leaf incense elixirs, and clicked his tongue lightly.
These things have a strong smell to cover up, and the added dose of the extract of the labyrinthine grass is very small, and it is only available in limited quantities. From Feng Yi's description, the effect is very good, and it is a valuable thing, and those who have it are reluctant to give it to others. , and the heart-wrenching grass has been extinct for a long time under the suppression of various forces in Zhongzhou. No wonder no one has noticed it.
And these shops in Yin Zhong don't just sell these, because they have dealings with various aristocratic families, and through good relationships, they also mix in popular buying and selling investments, reselling cultivation resources and information, making money and profit.
This Yin Zhong is also smart, and he actually knows not to cheat the poor.
Lin Du sighed, "Sure enough, everything that can make money quickly is written in the regulations."
The rest of the people all looked at Lin Du. She spread her hands and looked at everyone innocently.
"Isn't it?"
Ju Yuan had a look of fear on his face. Fortunately, Lin Du was in the Supreme Sect. If he entered another sect, there might be another lawless maniac.
"In recent years, Yin Zhong's power in the sect has grown more and more. The Feixing Sect was originally divided into several major factions. Either their ancestors had ascended people, or they had made great contributions to the Feixing Sect, and those ancestors protected them. Cultivation clans have gradually gathered together, and those who become disciples of the Feixing Sect, if they do not choose a clan to join, will inevitably be ostracized, and they will not even be able to get the monthly salary."
"However, the power of the leader has been emptied out. Over the years, among the six sects, the Feixing sect has been declining. People with good qualifications who are from common people cannot get good training resources, and those who dominate are the descendants of the powerful disciples. , people with foreign surnames will have no way to survive if they are not slaves."
Feng Yi said this not for those sticks, but specifically for Lin Du, "The leader wants to support someone to take back those powers, and Yin Zhong also wants power."
Lin Du already knew Feng Yi's purpose for saying this, "So Yin Zhong's business senior sister did not take action personally, but instead revealed the news to the powerful families that have been suppressed over the years and the merchants who have been harmed?"
Feng Yi nodded, "That's not entirely true. Yin Zhong hid very deeply and didn't even control it himself. However, our Feng family and the Supreme Sect are not just freeloaders. Your senior brother destroyed the hookah restaurant in anger. Everything inside, including the spiritual stones and treasures, was confiscated by him, and only the evidence was left and handed over to the elders of the Feixing Sect."
"The shisha shop earns a lot of money every day. Your senior brother should have enough money to raise Mo Lin's spiritual bones this time."
Ju Yuan crossed his arms and said, "That's not what you said. I am just trying to crack down on crime and confiscate illegal gains..."
Lin Du lowered his eyes and pushed the thing forward. The leader of the Flying Star Sect was just like a modern boss. If he wanted to lay off employees, he would first parachute down and a harsh executive would gather the power to fire the people who should be fired, and then lay off the executive himself. Appease the people and act like a good person.
The most sinister ones are the old capitalists.
Lin Du turned his mind back, "When did he realize something was wrong with Yin Zhong?"
This question was asked by the leader of the Flying Star Sect.
Feng Yi shook his head, "I don't know, but I guess he doesn't know about Qinglu Village and the Mysterious Heart Grass, otherwise..."
They are all righteous people and would not be so confused.
It's okay to seize power, but it's a big mistake to endanger the lives of innocent people.
Lin Du saw that the Seventh Senior Sister was thinking no less than him, and her stern look gave her an aura of calmness and dignity.
She tapped the table and said, "Sister Seventh, stop thinking about things. Now that you have found out all his legal and illegal businesses outside, you can leave them to them for internal processing."
"There is no sign in any of these shops that they are connected to the evil gang of Lanjujie. Then, have you checked the blacksmith shop I was talking about that day?"
"That's the problem." Feng Yi frowned slightly, "I checked after receiving your message in the middle of the night, and there was nothing unusual."
Lin Du asked cautiously, "Senior sister, are you really... not in the wrong place?"
Feng Yi:......
She was used to being unfazed by favors and humiliations, and being dignified and solemn. Now looking at her little junior sister's black and white eyes, she actually felt a rare hint of guilt, "It shouldn't be... no, right?"
Lin Du clicked the table and said, "When the master's nephew is well in a few days, we can go to the Feixing Sect together and have a look."
"I have arranged for people to monitor the place, you don't have to worry." Feng Yi returned to his normal state, "If there is a situation, the truth will always be revealed."
Lin Du's hand was still on the table, moving unconsciously. Feng Yi was a talisman cultivator, and she came from a wealthy family. She understood the power of people, and she also understood the secret transactions, but Lin Du always felt that there must be something different about that weapon refining shop.
She stood up and said, "Since there is a labyrinth, there must be a place to grow it. Don't the insiders know that they are breaking the law?"
"Those shopkeepers and core people..." Feng Yi paused, his red phoenix eyes showing a bit of anger, "There is a scar in the Shenmen point."
Lin Du thought as expected.
"People from the Feng family and the Supreme Sect are trying to trace the origin of the mind-bending grass. Don't worry, the truth will eventually come to light."
Feng Yi returned to normal, "You should take good care of yourself."
Lin Du was distraught. She drank two bowls of medicine a day in Granny Mapa's yard. In the morning, Granny Mapa boiled it to nourish her consciousness, and in the evening, she drank it in the summer to nourish her consciousness. She drank so much that she even lost her appetite for food. Today I ate three pots of rice noodles in total.
Five days later, Granny Map finally drove away these people who disturbed her purity.
Lin Du returned the thick Gu book to Granny Ma and thanked her again.
Granny Ma looked at the group of people in front of her. Although the remaining poison on Mo Lin's body was clear, the damage to his spiritual bones was not small and he still needed a good rest. The man hanging on the four-wheeled vehicle had already shown signs of decline in just a few days, and his hair turned gray. There is also a young man who is alive and kicking but still pale.
The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are all here.
"Have you made up your mind?" Granny Ma looked at Tao Xian.
Tao Xian smiled, took the bowl of medicine brought by the little corpse puppet to draw out the last vitality, and drank it in one breath, "Thank you to my mother-in-law for taking care of me for the past few days. I can't repay you, but I always have a sigh of relief in my heart, and I have to take care of you for the past few days." My junior brothers and sisters, I and I will seek justice. They will die with their eyes open in the underworld. I will always go down and tell them that I have sought justice for them..."
"Don't say sarcastic words. You just don't want to be a zombie and are rushing to be reincarnated. I don't have any objection to your choice." Granny Ma looked at Lin Du, "Since you have the bead as payment, there is no need to swear. You’re done, let’s just say goodbye.”
Lin Du bowed and said, "Thank you very much, grandma, for teaching me about the Gu sect."
Granny Map turned her head and said, "It's not a secret."
There is no secret information, and this information cannot be seen by the outside world. She is not a Gu master, but she has read all the Gu sects and Gu techniques. There are new records at the back of the book. No matter what Granny Ma says, she has half of it in Lin Du. Teacher's kindness.
Lin Du laughed, "If I meet a Gu Master who does evil, I will definitely kill him immediately and send a message to my mother-in-law."
Granny Map frowned, "No need, you are too noisy."
"Also, you should weigh your body. As I said before, if your body fails, you can come to me."
Lin Du just responded with a smile and did not refute.
After a few people left, the courtyard door slowly closed, and Granny Ma was pounding medicine alone in the courtyard. After a while, she lowered her head and smiled.
"Righteous disciple, as expected..."
Even a mediocre person like Tao Xian is no exception.
