Chapter 22 No Choice

On the bank of Bishui Bay, Li Mu bowed his hands to Su He and said, "Thank you so much, Miss Su, for teaching me the Dharma."

Su He looked at him and said: "After Zhao Yong's death, you can come here again. I still have something to give you."

Li Mu asked in confusion: "What?"

Su He smiled slightly and said, "We'll know when the time comes."



When Han Zhe woke up, his head still hurt badly.

The last remaining information in his mind was that he had damaged the female ghost's foundation and was about to destroy her when another ghost appeared in the lake and pulled them all into the illusion.

In the end, he failed to resist the temptation of the illusion and was completely lost in desire.

He looked around and found that it was already bright, and several detectives were lying on the ground beside him, and they were all still breathing.

None of them died, they just fell asleep all night, which was beyond Han Zhe's expectation.

After all, judging from the strength shown by the female ghost last night, as long as she had the slightest intention to kill, all of them would die here.

After thinking about it for a while, Han Zhe figured out why they could escape death.

Killing court officials is a serious crime. If all of them die here, the court will definitely not give up. It is very likely to send out strong men from the Third Realm. By then, no matter how deep the female ghost goes, she will only die.

Even if she has died once.

When he stood up, he saw Zhao Yong's second soul. After putting it away, he kicked the agent lying on the ground and said, "Don't sleep, wake up..."

After the detective woke up, he woke up several other colleagues.

Zhang Shan touched his crotch and turned to Li Mu: "Li Mu, I had a dream all night last night, it felt so good..."

Several other detectives also had knowing smiles on their faces. Only Li Si sat there with his back against the tree, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Listening to everyone's discussion, Han Zhe also touched his crotch. He knew that he had lost a lot of energy in the illusion last night. He didn't know how long it would take to make up for it. His face darkened and he said to everyone: "What are you doing standing there? Come back."

County government!"

Several people walked out of the forest and returned to the city along the official road, when they saw a group of people hurriedly walking towards the mountain.

These people looked like ordinary people, their expressions were hurried, but they could not hide the joy and excitement on their faces.

In line with professional ethics, a police officer stopped a person and asked, "What happened? Where are you going?"

"Go to Ganquan Temple!" The man pointed to the mountainside and said, "Don't you know, the Buddha appeared in the temple last night, and the Buddha's light lit up the sky. I have to go and worship quickly, and let the Buddha bless me to give birth to a son next year...

"

Li Mu now understands that in this world, Buddhism and Taoism have different beliefs, different practice systems, and different influences.

The Taoist sect emphasizes inaction. Most of the Taoist sects are established in fairy mountain caves that are full of spiritual energy. They have little contact with the people at the bottom. They only occasionally send disciples down the mountain to experience and subjugate demons. There are also many permanent residents in the county yamen, so they are called

Respected by the imperial court.

Although Buddhism emphasizes non-desire, it has many temples among the people and attracts many pilgrims. Its influence among the people is much greater than that of Taoism.

Han Zhe was a Taoist disciple. Seeing how enthusiastic these Buddhist believers were, he was naturally unhappy. After those people left, he snorted coldly and said: "A bunch of stupid people, those bald donkeys who have given up their love and desire, can't even give birth to a child by themselves."

Children, how can you bless them..."

"What the boss said is..."

Three of Han Zhe's detectives echoed incessantly.

As a Chinese son, Li Mu naturally prefers his own local religion. Of course, he doesn't have any bad feelings about Buddhism here. After all, Monk Xuandu of Jinshan Temple once saved his life and gave him a magic weapon for self-defense. He didn't hate it.

The monk's reasons.

What's more, the dual attributes of Buddhist magical powers also make Li Mu envious. He wonders if he can practice both Buddhism and Taoism. When the time comes, he will have the Taoist mudra in his left hand and the Buddhist magic in his right hand, and he will have to hide away from any monsters he sees.

However, there is currently no way to practice Buddhist magical powers, so Li Mu can only suppress this thought for the time being.

Zhang Shan walked beside Li Mu and asked in confusion: "Why do you think the female ghost didn't harm us?"

Li Mu said casually: "But you can be afraid of being investigated by the Yamen."

"That's true." Zhang Shan nodded and said, "But why did he let us have such a dream? I struggled with it more than a dozen times last night, and now my legs are weak..."

Thinking of yesterday's fantasy, Li Mu couldn't help but look at Li Si.

He originally thought that Li Si was the most lustful one among them and must be the first to be unable to withstand the temptation of lust. However, the fact was that Li Si, the most lustful one, faced the temptation of beauty better than all of them, including Han.

People who practice Buddhism like Zhe are determined.

If Li Mu didn't understand "Qingxin Jue", the end would not be any better than Zhang Shan and others.

As far as Li Mu knew, Li Si had never practiced cultivation. Therefore, what happened in the illusion last night left him puzzled.

Li Si hadn't said a word since he woke up. Li Mu walked over and asked doubtfully: "How did you do it in that illusion yesterday?"

Li Si glanced at him and said calmly: "I am more familiar with the brothels in Yangqiu County than at my own house. I can walk with my eyes closed. I have never seen any scenes or played in any positions. That is, you guys have never seen them.

Only those who have lived through the world will be tempted..."

Li Mu was speechless for a moment.

But Li Si seemed to have thought of something, and there was a trace of surprise on his face, and he said: "No, you didn't get hit yesterday. How could you, a young child, be able to control yourself in that kind of situation? Could it be..."

Aren’t you good at it?”

"..."

Li Mu became angry and asked, "Do you think you haven't been tempted?"

Li Si said calmly: "The facts have been proved."

Li Mu asked: "Who is Qingqing?"



Li Si's body trembled, then he lowered his head and fell into silence.

Zhang Shan pulled Li Mu aside and scolded: "Good Duan Duan, what are you doing with Qing Qing?"

Li Mu wondered: "Who is Qingqing?"

Zhang Shan said in surprise: "Have you forgotten?"

Li Mudao: "Should I remember?"

"I forgot about your incident..." Zhang Shan patted his head and finally remembered that Li Mu had lost his memory, and said: "In short, you must not mention the name "Qingqing" in front of Li Si, or even mention "Qingqing" in front of him.

"You can't even mention the word with the sound of "green"..."

"What about Li Qing?"

"You dare to call her name in front of the boss?"

"Don't dare."



Li Si walked in front, Zhang Shan deliberately trailed a few steps behind him, and then sighed and said to Li Mu: "Actually, he was not like this before. When he passed by the brothel before, he wouldn't even look at it..."

Li Mu asked: "Is it related to the girl named Qingqing?"

Zhang Shan nodded and said: "Qingqing is his childhood sweetheart and fiancée. They grew up together and made an engagement when they were very young. Later, later..."

"Later Qingqing ran away with the rich man?"

Zhang Shan said in surprise: "You remember..."

It's not that Li Mu remembered it, but that there is nothing more common in the world than this. Without running away from one or two fiancées, how could the once innocent young man Li Si change his temperament so much that he becomes what he is today.

No one is born a scumbag. Every passionate man and woman often has their most passionate moments.

Although Li Si's visit to the brothel was like going home, in Li Mu's eyes, he was still hundreds or thousands of times nobler than Zhao Yong, who killed his fiancée for the sake of his future.

Thinking of Zhao Yong, Li Mu had a headache.

The reason why he wanted to help Lin Wan was that he really felt pity for her, and it was simple to say a few upright words for his own life, but it was very difficult to actually do it.

If Lin Wan only wanted revenge, she would directly destroy Zhao Yong's second soul. Although Zhao Yong would not die, he would only be a fool for the rest of his life.

But the consequence of doing so is that both she and Su He will be wanted by the court and will not end well.

Revenge through the law seems reasonable and reasonable, but as a policeman, Li Mu knew that the laws of Zhou Dynasty, on the surface, seemed to protect the weak, but in fact, only the weak could be punished by the law.

Counties in the Great Zhou Dynasty have a high degree of autonomy. A county chief has the power of life and death over the people of the county. If he wants to punish Zhao Yong, he cannot go around the county magistrate. I am afraid that even the county magistrate would not dare to take this kind of case...

What he took on last night was a huge problem.

But he had no choice.
