Chapter 169 Let the Maid Take the Blame

Tian Lin is not interested in the Faxiang Pill in the tomb of Jiu Mingzhenren.

Or to be precise, he was not interested in breaking into the tomb of the Nine Lives Master again.

He still remembered that he entered the tomb of Jiu Ming Zhenren in the illusion. If it were not for the Taoist bell in Dao Daoshan, he would have died in the illusion at that time.

Moreover, the woman who is suspected of being the real person of Nine Lives seems to be at sea. Tian Lin has eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard, so he wants to rob her tomb at this time?

“I just don’t know what Zhou Shoufan’s plan was—perhaps he was the one who leaked the information about the tomb of the Nine Lives Master.

No way, this is a trap. "

Tian Lin thought to no avail and returned to his residence.

According to Yu'er's understanding, all fishermen will not be able to help showing off their catch once they catch it.

But when she saw Tian Lin frowning and entering the house directly as soon as he returned to the house, she expected that Tian Lin would have nothing to gain.

Naturally, she would not pick up which pot, but she made tea for Tian Lin very thoughtfully, and took the initiative to chat about some relaxed and pleasant topics:

"The clan said that the Thirteenth Young Master was coming back, so they invited the Tianbei County theater troupe to come into the house -

During this time, many worshipers went to the old house to watch the show. I wonder if you are interested in going and taking a look? "

Tian Lin was a man of two generations and had little interest in going to the theater.

He shook his head, and Yu'er said:

"This Fairy Yue'e of Guanghan Society is not only a strong person in the early stage of foundation building, but she also looks like a fairy.

Master, if you can make friends with her, it will be of great benefit to you. "

Tian Lin's heart moved when he heard this.

He remembered that Yu'er once told him that spiritual practice pays attention to the Dharma of the wealthy couple.

Among them, the first one is wealth, and the second one is 'Taoist companion'.

"never mind."

Tian Lin thought for a while, then shook his head and said:

"I'm not good at dealing with people, so there's no reason to make things difficult for myself or others. If you want to go to the theater and watch a show, go by yourself."

At this time, Cui'er had already brought the rice from the kitchen, and Tian Lin was the only one eating Shuiling rice.

This time it was not Yu'er who spoke, but Cui'er who was standing next to her and suddenly asked Tian Lin:

"Have you ever heard outside, that there is a golden elixir tomb in Kun Lake that is about to be opened?"

Tian Lin chopsticks paused for a moment and said: "I heard about this at the water official in Shenxiantang. It's just that what was unearthed in the Jindan tomb was Faxiang Dan. It was something that was planned only in the middle stage of foundation building. For me, But it doesn’t matter.”

Hearing what he said, Cui'er couldn't help but said:

"As long as the master is still thinking about breaking through the cultivation level, Faxiang Dan will be used sooner or later. Furthermore, how can there be only Faxiang Dan in the Golden Dan tomb?

Even if I don't plan for the Faxiang Pill, I can still plan for other tomb treasures. "

Tian Lin still shook his head after hearing this: "There are many people who think the same as you. Wouldn't it be very dangerous if everyone starts fighting for it?"

Cui'er laughed angrily. She didn't dare to get angry with Tian Lin, but couldn't help but mutter:

"Gao Daoye next door and Cai Xiangu are in the same early stage of foundation building. They are not afraid of danger. Furthermore, cultivation is something that goes against the will of nature. Once such an opportunity is missed, I don't know how long it will take again."

She complained, but was immediately interrupted by Yu'er.

Yu'er glanced at Tian Lin worriedly and found that Tian Lin was not angry, so she felt a little relieved.

Despite this, she still turned to glare at Cui'er and said, "Have you finished your homework for today? If you have nothing to do, go back to your room and practice your sword."

Cui'er left angrily, and Yu'er explained to Tian Lin:

"This girl hasn't grown up since she was a child, but her heart is not bad. Master, please don't argue with her."

Tian Lin nodded, not angry, but asked Yu'er:

"What do you think? The entire foundation-building monks in Pingyang City want to get a piece of the golden elixir tomb?"

Yu'er thought Tian Lin was tempted, so she struck while the railroad was hot:

"All the foundation-building experts in Pingyang City, whether in the early or mid-term, are waiting for the tomb to open.

Among these people, there are formation masters, talisman makers, and weapon refiners... so the tomb looks dangerous, but with so many strong people working together, it should actually be very safe. "

Tian Lin asked her again: "Only our foundation-building monks from Pingyang City have come? Are there people who don't have golden elixirs or immortal sects?"

"Except for our ancestors, no one who is strong in the Golden Pill has heard that anyone is coming. As for those Immortal Sect disciples, except for a few people nearby, no one rushed to Pingyang City for the Faxiang Pill."

"Then are there any disciples of Taoism?"

Yu'er shook her head, and Tian Lin felt a little disappointed.

He had no expectations at all for the opening of this tomb. After finishing the meal in the bowl, he waved his hand for Yu'er to go out.

The two maids he currently has are from the Zhou family. Among them, Yu'er is more obedient and useful, while Cui'er is not so obedient.

But both of them have the desire to 'work hard'.

Tian Lin didn't think that these two people wanted to harm him, but he really felt that the tomb of the Nine Lives Master was an opportunity. Even if there is danger, we should grasp it.

They seem to expect that as they become stronger, a rising tide lifts all boats.

Of course Tian Lin also wants to become stronger, but he is not willing to take the risk to rob some big tomb.

That night, Tian Lin took Buddha's magic elixir and meditated in his room.

Early the next morning, as soon as he got up, he heard a knock on the door.

Tian Lin's spiritual sense checked and knew that the person coming was Gao He, so he nodded to Yu'er who had already gotten up.

Yu'er opened the door, and sure enough it was Gao He and his wife who came.

Gao He held hands with Tian Lin from afar and said, "Fellow Taoist Tian, ​​do you know that there is a tomb of Jindan under Kun Lake?"

Tian Lin nodded and said: "I have already heard this matter from my maid. Is Gao Taoist friend asking me to visit the tomb together?"

Gao He nodded and said: "I have made an appointment with four or five friends. When the time comes, we who are in the early stage of foundation building may not be worse than one person who is in the middle stage of foundation building.

Even if we can't grab the Faxiang Pill, there are a lot of treasures in the Golden Pill Tomb. If we just pick up a treasure, it will be enough for us to spend a few years. "

His words were not unattractive, but Tian Lin shook his head and refused:

"Tian Mou appreciates Fellow Taoist Gao's kindness, but Tian Mou only wants to make a living by fishing and does not want to take risks to hunt for treasures."

Gao He couldn't help but said:

"How much money can you make from fishing? If I'm not wrong, fellow Taoist, except for catching a two-headed fish on the first day, you haven't caught any fish since then, right?"

Tian Lin's face darkened and he said, "I've been unlucky these past few days, so I haven't caught much fish, which worries Taoist Gao."

Gao He wanted to speak, but his wife tugged on his sleeve and said dissatisfiedly:

"If someone is too timid and unwilling to take risks, why are you forcing him to do it? Everyone has his own opportunities, and there is no reason for you to put your hot face on someone's cold ass."

After listening to his wife's words, Gao He no longer tried to persuade Tian Lin, but bowed his hands to Tian Lin and left.

As soon as the couple left, Tian Lin strode back to the house.

Not long after, Yu'er pulled Cui'er into the house, first forced Cui'er to kneel down, and then she also knelt down and said to Tian Lin:

"Because Cui'er has a good relationship with Xiang'er, she talked about the master's affairs. She didn't intentionally leak the master's affairs."

Tian Lin glanced at Cui'er on the ground and asked Yu'er, "What has she told people about me?"

Yu'er looked at Cui'er and scolded: "What did you say behind your back, and you still haven't confessed it honestly now?"

Cui'er was quite upright, or maybe she really wasn't afraid of Tian Lin, so she said:

"Xian'er asked me, how many spiritual stones can your master earn from fishing? Isn't it enough to buy the Water God Pill?

I told her that except for a two-headed fish that I was lucky enough to catch on the first day, I didn’t catch any fish, and now my family relies on the spiritual rice sent by Tongfu. "

Tian Lin then asked Cui'er, "Besides this, what else did you say?"

Before Cui'er could speak, Yu'er glared at Cui'er and said, "Have you ever said anything about the Buddha and Demon Self-Restraint Gong to anyone?"

Cui'er said: "I didn't mention this to Xiang'er."

Tian Lin didn't speak, just picked up the tea bowl and drank tea.

Yu'er, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't read Tian Lin's thoughts from Tian Lin's face. She felt that Tian Lin didn't believe what Cui'er said, so she turned to glare at Cui'er and said:

"You have to tell the truth, have you ever told Xiang'er about the Buddha-Demon Self-Reliance Gong?"

The Buddha-Demon Freedom Skill was stolen by Zhong Er to Cui Er, but the mastermind behind this matter was Tian Lin.

This matter was really disgraceful and violated a taboo among monks, so Yu'er was extremely anxious at the moment.

She was afraid that Tweetie was really talking nonsense outside, and she was afraid that Tweetie was not talking nonsense outside, but Tian Lin couldn't trust either of them.

"What I did is what I did, and what I didn't do is just what I didn't do. Apart from complaining that I didn't have great ambitions and was picking on the ropes, I never said a word about the rest."

Tian Lin put down his tea cup at this time and said:

"Forget it, your two sisters are sent by the housekeeper after all, so I can't punish you two. You should pack your bags tonight and go back to Tong's house."

Yu'er knocked her head to the ground and said:

"Master, I don't know. If we are driven back, the steward will definitely ask us why, and we will definitely be punished then."

Tian Lin smiled and said, "That's none of my business."

Yu'er's face turned pale and she looked at Cui'er.

Cui'er's face also looked a little ugly. She bit her lip and wiped her tears, and said to Tian Lin:

"I committed the crime. If you want to punish me, you can punish me. My sister has nothing to do with it."

Tian Lin heard this and sneered:

"I said I won't punish you, I just sent you back to Tong's family. If you ask for mercy, you should go to the person in charge to ask for mercy. There is no need to plead your sister's grievances in front of me."

Cui'er was speechless for a moment, and Yu'er knelt down and begged for mercy:

"Master doesn't know that maids like us are trained to hold swords. If they are driven back because they offend their master, no matter what the reason, they will have a bad reputation in the future.

When the time comes when he cannot hold the sword, he will be randomly distributed to the servants below, and he will not be allowed to stay in the back house. "

Tian Lin knew about the existence of the sword.

The sword holder and the sword slave are all people who serve the monk.

The sword slave is like the sword in the master's hand. It not only kills for the master, but also protects the master.

The sword-holder is a maidservant who serves the master closely.

In a battle, once the sword slave dies, the sword becomes the master's last layer of protection.

In short, whether you are a sword slave or holding a sword, you must have some cultivation.

The Tong family trained batches of girls and gave them to the foundation-building monks to make swords.

He may not have used women's sex to win over and influence those foundation-building monks.

However, cultivating sword-holding requires a lot of costs, and sword-holding is originally the 'patent' of young masters from aristocratic families.

How can most foundation-building monks from Huahua Lang have time to train their own swords?

Therefore, most of these foundation-building monks would keep the swords given by the Tong family with them.

"Okay, I'll give you another chance."

Tian Lin stood up and said to Cui'er:

"Now go to the Dragon Alchemist next door and tell him that I discovered that you stole his Buddha and Demon Freedom Skill, so I asked him to help you."

After hearing Tian Lin's words, Cui'er couldn't help but be stunned.

Tian Lin said: "If you don't want to take the blame, then take your sister with you. Then you can tell the housekeeper of the Tong family that I ordered you to steal the magic power from Master Long Dan."

If Cui'er had threatened Tian Lin with the fact that Tian Lin ordered her to steal the magic power, then Tian Lin would not be so easy to talk to at this moment.

But the two sisters did not threaten Tian Lin at all in the end, which made Tian Lin have other thoughts in his mind.

He actually didn't want to send the two sisters back to the Tong family directly. If he did that, who could guarantee that the two sisters would not talk nonsense everywhere?

If he denied that he had never stolen the magic power, how many people would believe it?

It would be better to let Cui'er confess the crime now, make a conclusion on this matter first, and settle the troubles first.
