Seeing Lin Xiaodong holding these three swords, Lin Binhai couldn't help but smile disdainfully, thinking: "You have only more than ten years of cultivation, so what's the use of taking more treasures?
Those elixirs refined by Xie Wenlun are also tasteless and it would be a pity to discard them. Do you still think you have found a treasure?"
Seeing Lin Binhai coming, Lin Xiaodong grinned, knowing that he would definitely come, so he pretended not to see him and asked Pan Xiaoxing: "What about this jade talisman?"
Pan Xiaoxing said: "These three jade talismans are Zhemei, Xuanquan and Lianshuang. Xuanquan was refined by Xie Wenlun himself, and the other two were made by several uncles."
Lin Xiaodong nodded and took off the jade charm: "I want both."
Lin Binhai just felt that Lin Xiaodong was really not up to par. He shook his head and thought: "These rags are all thrown away after practicing for a few years. Only you can use them as treasures!"
Guo Chuxiu pointed to the gourd hanging on the wall and said, "Uncle Fifth Master, what kind of elixirs do you make?"
Lin Binhai didn't know either. After all, Xie Wenlun was hiding deeply, so he couldn't help but lean out slightly.
Lin Xiaodong picked off the gourd. There were only six pills in the three gourds. One gourd contained four pills. They were the Qingshuang True Pill that Lin Xiaodong had been accused of stealing. One pill was equivalent to six months of cultivation.
The remaining two pills are called the Jianglu Hui Dan and the Tai Su Xuan Dan. The Jiang Lu Hui Dan is equivalent to one year of cultivation, and the Tai Su Xuan Dan has two years of magic power.
Lin Binhai walked into the room, standing on tiptoes and stretching his neck to look. When Lin Xiaodong saw him coming in, he put his hands behind his back and tilted his head to smile at him.
Lin Binhai flushed with anger and nodded with bared teeth: "Okay, I won't read it, but don't blame me for not reminding you that Xie Wenlun is a vicious person. If the gourd is filled with poison, don't eat it to death."
Lin Xiaodong smiled and said, "I don't have to worry about it, uncle."
Lin Binhai glared, turned around and walked away.
Lin Xiaodong poured out all the elixirs and could sense the potency. He gave two Qingshuang True Pills to each of Pan Xiaoxing and Guo Chuxiu and said: "This is the Qingshuang True Pill. Xie Wenlun accused me of stealing this one."
Equivalent to half a year’s worth of mana.”
Pan Xiaoxing stared, greedy and surprised, looking at the pill and then at Lin Xiaodong, and said: "You just gave it to me?
You do not want?"
Lin Xiaodong puffed up his chest and said: "Senior brother Lin, you have more than ten years of cultivation. If you take this pill, it means you haven't taken it. I'll give it to you two."
Pan Xiaoxing and Guo Chuxiu both saluted Lin Xiaodong: "Thank you, Senior Brother Lin."
Lin Xiaodong gave the Dew Falling Pill to Pan Xiaoxing and the Taisu Xuan Pill to Guo Chuxiu, saying: "These two pills give Junior Sister Guo more power. Junior Sister Guo stayed at the foot of the mountain for a while, and her cultivation level has declined."
Yes, give her this good one."
Guo Chuxiu's eyes were red: "Thank you so much, Senior Brother Lin."
Pan Xiaoxing took Guo Chuxiu's arm and patted her back, saying: "Senior Sister Guo, don't be sad. Once the bandit is caught, you can go back to the mountain!"
The two sisters admired Lin Xiaodong extremely, and secretly fell in love with each other, so they went back home.
Lin Xiaodong happily returned to his residence, put three jade talismans and three swords into the wordless scripture, and gained a cultivation speed seven times that of ordinary people.
Lin Binhai also returned to his residence. He was so angry that his heart ached. He was jealous and afraid of Lin Xiaodong: "It has only been half a year and it has become a serious problem for me! What should I do?"
The next day, the mountain was repaired for a day. On the third day, everyone recovered their magic power. In the morning, Taoist Linquan called a generation of disciples, Lin Xiaodong and Guo Chuxiu, to discuss matters in the backyard pavilion.
Linquan Taoist said: "You follow me down the mountain, Lin Xiaodong will lead the way and deal with the bandits."
Zhang Yuwen said: "Since he is a bandit, it is better to report it to the government for resolution."
Lin Xiaodong said: "I found out that the group of bandits is led by a Taoist priest who knows how to deduce and specializes in picking out valuable goods."
After hearing this, Zeng Junmin said disdainfully: "Is this how you use numerology?"
Linquan Taoist said: "This matter really should be handled by the government. Let's subdue the person and let the government take him away and punish him."
Lin Binhai shook his head: "How can the government have the courage to catch the bandits?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Now the county magistrate Lu Deshou has been punished to repair the garden, and now the county magistrate Dai Jishi is in charge of the county government."
Lin Binhai said disdainfully: "So?"
Lin Xiaodong looked around at everyone and said, "Dai Jishi owes me a favor. It shouldn't be a problem for him to send people to clear out the bandits."
Lin Binhai thought it was ridiculous, spread his hands and smiled: "The county magistrate owes you a favor?
You have been on the mountain for half the year, how can the county magistrate owe you any favors?"
Linquan Taoist asked Lin Xiaodong: "Can you ask the county government to come forward?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded affirmatively: "Dai Jishi is upright and loves the people, and he will definitely not ignore things like exterminating bandits."
Lin Binhai said sarcastically: "You are so proud."
Linquan Taoist nodded: "Okay, then you go to the county seat first and explain the matter to the county magistrate. If the county government can come forward, we will arrest everyone. If the county government does not care, we will get the silk money back.
To make up for the loss of Guo Chuxiu’s family.”
Guo Chuxiu suddenly said: "Master, senior brother Lin and I will go down the mountain together!"
Linquan Taoist didn't think much: "Okay."
Lin Xiaodong and Guo Chuxiu packed their bags, led their horses down the mountain, and ran towards the county town.
The next afternoon, the two came to the county government office. Looking at the two upright stone lions at the door, Guo Chuxiu said nervously: "Do you really know the county magistrate?"
Lin Xiaodong dismounted and said easily: "Of course."
He walked up to the guard and said, "Lin Xiaodong from the Lingquan Sect of Pingliang Mountain is here to pay homage to Lord Dai, the county prime minister."
The guard announced that he was coming in, and after a while, he saw Dai Jishi and two other adults coming to greet him. Dai Jishi handed over to Lin Xiaodong from a distance: "My benefactor, long time no see!"
Guo Chuxiu stared at the side, full of shock. Seeing Lin Xiaodong in a trance, she admired her even more: "Senior Brother Lin is so powerful that even the county magistrate wants to sell his face!"
Dai Jishi introduced from the left and right: "Taoist Lin, this is Cao Dingsheng, the chief registrar, and Luo Hongfu, the county lieutenant. Come and pay homage to Taoist Lin."
The two adults also bowed their hands to Lin Xiaodong: "I have met Taoist Lin!"
Dai Jishi looked at Guo Chuxiu and asked, "Who is this girl?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "This is my junior sister Guo Chuxiu."
Dai Jishi saluted: "Hello, Miss Guo."
Guo Chuxiu saw a high official for the first time and returned the salute nervously: "Hello, Mr. County Magistrate."
"Come in quickly, come in quickly!"
Dai Jishi took Lin Xiaodong and Guo Chuxiu to the hall and sat down, and ordered tea to be served. Luo Hongfu and Cao Dingsheng accompanied him.
Dai Jishi took a drink and asked, "What does Taoist Lin want to do with Dai?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "My junior sister Guo, my family owns a silk shop in the county town. A few days ago, silk worth five thousand taels of gold was robbed by bandits."
"Is there such a thing?"
Dai Jishi almost spilled his tea.
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Fortunately, we have found the whereabouts of the bandit."
Dai Jishi was in a dilemma, thought for a while, and said: "It is of course the responsibility of the county government to exterminate the bandits. However, now there are less than a hundred officers and soldiers in the county government. Lu Deshou has already emptied his family fortune. If he wants to deal with the bandits, there is really no one."
