Madam, protect me!

The next morning, Li Nuo went out an hour earlier than usual.

In the morning, he had to teach the students of Wansong Academy the Six Arts, and in the afternoon, he had to go to the Ministry of Justice to investigate a case.

In Daxia, he had nothing to do.

When he arrived in Zhao State, he was so busy that he couldn't stop.

It seemed that he had returned to the time when he had to fight for his life every day.

Seeing Li Nuo going out at dawn and coming back at dark, even Zhao Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed and wanted to share some of his burden, but what he did was something that no one could replace.

All she could do was to accompany him throughout the whole process.

After finishing the morning class at the academy, the three of them ate together in the academy cafeteria.

The food at Wansong Academy was very good, with a variety of dishes and balanced nutrition. More importantly, the students didn't have to spend a penny on meals, and the fourth prince paid for their meals.

"Hello, sir."

"Hello, sir, madam."

Li Nuo only taught twenty people at first, but later when he taught, even outside the classroom was full of people.

In the past few days, the students of Wansong Academy all knew him.

When the three of them were having dinner together, they heard several students talking about something.

A strange thing happened in the capital of Zhao State.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, a 30-year-old strong man was walking on the street and inexplicably turned into an old man in his twilight years.

It was said outside that there was a demon in the capital, making people panic.

Song Yiren was surprised and said, "Is there really a demon?"

Li Nuo looked back and saw that the students were talking about it seriously.

Although there are demons and ghosts in various countries, they are limited to vernacular novels and have never been confirmed.

However, those who can do such things are not necessarily demons.

Yin-Yang School can also do this.

The power of Yin-Yang Art is not only to predict fate, but also to change fate.

A high-level Yin-Yang School has the ability to deprive ordinary people of their lifespan at will.

It's just that Yin-Yang School is very taboo about interfering with other people's fate and generally does not do so.

Song Yiren bit her chopsticks and murmured, "They can also take away other people's lifespans, so can't the Yin-Yang family live forever?"

Zhao Zhiyi smiled and explained, "Miss Song misunderstood. Although the Yin-Yang family can deprive others of their lifespans, they cannot own these lifespans, just like you warriors, you can abolish other people's cultivation, but you can't take their cultivation for yourself..."

Song Yiren looked at Li Nuo, and Li Nuo nodded slightly.

The Sixth Princess was right. Ordinary people know very little about the Yin-Yang family.

Not only can they not live forever, because they have leaked too many secrets, the high-level Yin-Yang family has a much shorter lifespan than other families of the same level.

Those who leak secrets will be punished by heaven.

From ancient times to the present, countless people have pursued immortality, but no one has achieved their wish.

Reducing lifespan is simple, but increasing lifespan is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Only the Yin-Yang family can control fate. If a person wants to increase his lifespan, unless there is a Yin-Yang family above the sixth level who is willing to give him his lifespan, but which Yin-Yang family is willing to do so?

The most amazing thing about the code is not that it can acquire other people's abilities, but that it can increase one's lifespan.

Speaking of which, if he practices Yin-Yang, there is a huge benefit.

Theoretically, his lifespan is infinite.

As long as there are crimes in this world, his lifespan can continue to increase.

Even if he shares some with others, it doesn't matter. Just catch some thieves and judge some cases, and the lifespan will increase...

But the premise is that he has the sixth level of Yin-Yang cultivation.

After lunch, Yiren went back to the embassy to practice.

Li Nuo and the Sixth Princess came to the Ministry of Justice.

There are hundreds of old cases piled up in the Ministry of Justice. These are only the cases directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice near the capital, not including the unsolved cases in the local area.

The oldest of these cases has been over for twenty years.

Because they have not been solved, they have been piled up in the case library of the Ministry of Justice.

For those cases that have not been solved for more than twenty years, the files will be destroyed regularly.

It is actually a bit difficult to investigate these old cases.

After all, too much time has passed, and some of the witnesses are no longer alive. There is no evidence, and there is no way to start...

Zhao Zhiyi thought so too, but Li Nuo just summoned all the people involved in the case to the Ministry of Justice, asked them some questions, and then took the case files to the embassy for study. The next morning, he could give the identity of the criminal.

He was not able to find the murderer in all cases.

But the rate of solving more than half of the cases was also very amazing, and these were old cases more than ten years ago.

Another day ended, and Li Nuo walked out of the Ministry of Justice.

After getting familiar with the officials of the Ministry of Justice, Li Nuo found that the officials of the Ministry of Justice of Zhao State generally had lower cultivation than those of Daxia.

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice of Daxia, even if he only relied on daily accumulation, had the cultivation of the fourth realm.

But the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice of Zhao State was only in the third realm.

The cultivation of the minister of the Ministry of Justice was only in the fourth realm, not as good as Li Nuo.

Although the higher the cultivation level of the officials in the Ministry of Justice, the worse the public security in the country, but the public security in Zhao is not so good yet.

During the days in Zhao, Li Nuo also investigated.

Although Zhao did not have a gold medal for exemption from death, it still had redemption of punishment. Officials and dignitaries who broke the law could be exempted from punishment by paying a fine, so almost no officials and dignitaries were punished. Naturally, the officials in the Ministry of Justice of Zhao did not have a shortcut to improve their cultivation.

Daxia had redemption of punishment, but no one dared to use it.

After my father became the Minister of Dali Temple, the number of imperial examinations that were admitted in one session was expanded from fifty to one hundred, and now I have to increase the number of imperial examinations.

Among them, countless officials and dignitaries were killed.

Although he did not practice Legalism, officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple who practiced Legalism were able to follow him and make progress even while lying down.

To put it bluntly, there is a lack of Li Xuanjing in the Zhao court.

For Li Nuo, this is a good thing.

With so much experience, it is more than enough to reach the fifth realm.

The old cases solved in the past few days have added nearly 500 days to his life, and his cultivation has also increased a lot. Unfortunately, after today, there will be no cases to solve.

Li Nuo got on the sixth princess's carriage and drove towards the embassy.

In a teahouse on the street.

The two sixth-level Yin-Yang family members were speechless for a long time.

Every day that passes adds more than a hundred days to his life.

It's like there is a Yin Yang family who transfers more than a hundred days of life to him every day.

The skinny old man was silent for a moment and said: "Every time he investigates a case, his life span will increase by a few days."

The old fortune teller stroked his beard and said: "Nonsense, you don't have to say this, the key is... why?"

The skinny old man didn't speak.

Yes, why?

Why can investigating crimes increase life expectancy? Is there any inevitable connection between the two?

The theory of yin and yang cannot explain this situation at all.

There is no theory that can explain it.

This made both of them have some doubts about what they had learned throughout their lives.

The old fortune teller said: "This is not the strangest thing..."

He was silent for a moment and said: "The strangest thing is that his life span is sometimes longer and sometimes shorter. There is no pattern..."

At that time in Daxia, after discovering this incident, he told his fortune every day.

It turns out that he had doubts about Onmyoji and almost went crazy, so he hid in the Kingdom of Zhao.

But he didn't expect that the man's ghost was still lingering and he was chasing him here again.

The skinny old man took a deep breath and murmured: "Is there really someone who is unlucky?"

The old fortune teller looked at him and asked, "Do you think so too?"

The skinny old man shook his head and said, "I don't know."

He has firmly believed throughout his life that everything is fate, and even the actions of the Yin Yang family to change fate are within the larger destiny.

But in this person's case, the Nangong family's destiny theory cannot be explained.

His faith also collapsed.

At this time, the old fortune teller slammed the table and gritted his teeth and said: "No matter what, people who are not destined to die really exist. Isn't this a good thing? If all the fates are already determined, what is the meaning of the process in between? Is there really a Creator in the sky? Do you also think that our world is fake? "

The skinny old man slowly exhaled.

As the old man Dongfang said, isn't the existence of unexpected people a good thing?

Even if what the ancestors of the Nangong family thought were wrong, at least this world was true.

But soon, a look of regret appeared on his face, and he said, "I really want to see how far this unlucky person can go, but unfortunately, I won't be able to see that day..."

The old fortune teller looked at this old friend who had been arguing with him all his life, and a trace of sadness appeared in his heart. After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said: "Don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me. The worst is, I will share half of your lifespan!"
