It seems to be called... Lin Xingwen.

These words circled in Lin Mo's mind, making him stunned in place.

He didn't expect that the insect master's lineage could be related to Xingwen, and the request that seemed very strange to outsiders was actually made by him...

"Other than that, are there any other conditions?"

Xiao Yue shook his head: "No, that benefactor has a lot of power in the capital, and he provided a lot of help after the Patriarch's line came to Beijing."

Lin Mo was thoughtful, this incident reminded him of a passage left to him by Lao Guanlou and "Book of Luban".

Is the brat planning something?

Want to do something after he and A Ling died?

Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Yue said: "Now the other branch is hidden from the world. Those who know our existence should only know the alchemist but not the insect master. Therefore, I will be so surprised after hearing you reveal your identity."

Lin Mo understood his son's character, and he would not be a bad person no matter what.

Put this aside in advance, the important thing is the present.

"I want to know why you came to Luoshui Temple? And why are your three clansmen? Is it related to this matter when I mentioned the 痋 | technique?"

Xiao Yue hesitated to speak: "How do you know about the art of 痋|?"

Lin Mo and Zhong Ning looked at each other, and told about the situation they encountered on the construction site and the fact that they were drilled into the body by worms: "...I met Bai Shiyuan this morning, and he told me that the crew came to Luoshui Temple It was your suggestion."

I wanted to test it first, but now that I found out that they were alchemists, Lin Mo changed his mind temporarily, so he let it go.

Xiao Yue was surprised, and muttered to himself: "Oh, so that's the case...can you let me see your situation?"

Zhong Ning stepped forward.

A faint cyan symbol appeared on Xiao Yue's palm, he held his wrist to check, and then let go after a while: "To be honest, I came to Luoshui Temple to find out the whereabouts of Master Yi. I suspect that he is in the In the temple."

Lin Mo made a gesture of listening.

"Although the 痋 | technique was popular in Southeast Asia, it later flowed into the N province and was learned by some people. It killed people for the so-called elixir."

"Although insect masters also use insects to make medicines, they don't hurt people at will, let alone devour people to death with such cruel methods."

"When the technique was first introduced, many people mistakenly believed that the ones who harmed people were our insect masters."

Lin Mo said: "Because they are all playing with bugs."

Xiao Yue nodded: "That's right, at that time, Master Yan acted without any scruples, and finally offended a powerful force in the Miao family. In order to save his life, he put the blame on Master Chong, and killed several clansmen and pushed it to Miao. At home... just like that, the misunderstanding between the two sides caused great conflicts in those years."

"At that time, there was a war, no one was in charge, and human life was not worth mentioning. If it weren't for the help of benefactors to find out the truth and find Master Yi, I am afraid that our family will be almost dead and lost, and we will lose our inheritance."

Lin Mo's heart moved: "The benefactor you mentioned...could it be Lin Xingwen?"

"It's him."

Xiao Yue continued: "Because of this incident, we lost many relatives and clan members, and even the head of the family almost lost his life... Although Master Yi was killed at that time, since then, Master Chong and Master Yi have also formed a bond. deep hatred."

Lin Mo: "I also found gnats in Bai Shiyuan's body."

Xiao Yue scratched his hair in distress: "It's not just Bai Shiyuan, Director Wang, Zhen Rong, and some staff members also have..."

"what happened?"

"Things have to start from the last filming location..."

The crew of "The Legend of Nine Songs" is filming a large-scale costume drama, and they need props to dress up the corpses. The shape of a stone shell.

"I didn't notice anything unusual at the time. I waited until the corpse was destroyed and the bugs escaped..." Xiao Yue sighed: "Bai Shiyuan happened to be on the set that day..."

Recalling the status of the crew, Lin Mo asked, "Did you not tell them about the worms?"

Xiao Yue hummed: "I dare not tell, Zhen Rong and the others will be scared to death and cause panic. At that time, they only thought that the props were old and worn out, so the bugs would come out."

"I asked the prop master later. He said that someone bought a batch at a low price and used it. After my investigation, I found that it was connected with Luoshui Temple."

Meng Jirong was puzzled: "Why are the props involved in the performance related to a monk temple? Don't you think it's too strange?"

"That's what I thought at the time, but all the clues lead here."

Zhan Wenshuang said suddenly, "Someone deliberately lured you here."

Xiao Yue's expression was solemn: "Xiao Fengluan also said the same..."

"It was because I didn't think carefully, thinking that bringing the crew here would be an opportunity to cover up the identity investigation and get rid of the worms in their bodies. Only later did I realize that this might be a trap."

Lin Mo: "If it was the Master Yi behind the scenes who brought you here, I'm afraid they will attack you on the first day you arrive. I'm more inclined to have a third party intervene."

"This side is hiding in the dark, first conceal the Yishi, bring the murdered corpse into the crew, and leave clues for you to investigate to Luoshui Temple. The Yishi behind may not know why you came here."

It's like when Master Yi blamed Master Chong, causing conflict between Master Chong and the Miao family.

The current situation is similar, but it has also changed, and it has become someone who wants to use the alchemist's hand to get rid of Yishi, or wants them to lose both.

In short, I don't have any good intentions, otherwise why didn't I say it clearly, but used this kind of oblique method, which is probably shameful.

Zhan Wenshuang said: "Could it be that we were also deliberately lured to Luoshui Temple?"

Lin Mo: "Lead the wolf into the house."

Xiao Yue gave him a strange look, wolf?

Lin Mo: "You can't handle it alone, so they came here?"

Xiao Yue's expression darkened: "The family has an order. Once you find any traces of Master Yi, report it immediately. Xiao Fengluan...he is the most talented alchemist in our family. With him, there should be no problem."

………………

Xiao Xue smashed something and locked herself in the room.

Xiao Qingsi came out after a few words of comfort, saw Xiao Fengluan leaning against a wall not far away, hesitated for a while, and went over: "Senior brother..."

"How is she?" Xiao Fengluan said indifferently.

"I cried for a while and said that I would sue the head of the house."

Xiao Fengluan curled up a mocking arc: "That's all she has."

Xiao Qingsi: "Senior brother, if Xiao Xue complains to the Patriarch, because the Patriarch loves her... Maybe he will attack that person."

"It's not maybe, it's definitely."

Xiao Fengluan said: "After the old Patriarch passed away, the people in the clan were left alone and became more and more arrogant, especially our Patriarch, who relied on the old Patriarch's expanded network, did not know what humility is."

"Nowadays, most of the people secretly see that our Xiao family is not pleasing to the eye. The reason why they back down is that they are afraid of the pills produced by the Xiao family, so they give a little favor."

Xiao Qingsi nodded, indeed.

The Xiao family is beautiful on the surface, but in fact it has made many enemies.

Xiao Fengluan's eyes were deep: "Qingsi, we were all brought back to the Xiao family by the old Patriarch, and we were carefully cultivated thanks to the kindness of the old Patriarch. It has nothing to do with the current Patriarch. He just treats us as It's just a tool to stabilize Xiao Xue's position."

"Don't forget why the herring left."

Xiao Qingyu is Xiao Yue's real name and Xiao Qingsi's younger brother.

Mentioning him, Xiao Qingsi clenched his hands tightly: "I will never forget...Senior brother, the Patriarch is not worthy to be in charge of the Xiao Family, and neither is Xiao Xue. Only you are qualified to take over what the old Patriarch left behind."

"Senior brother, you have the best talent. You are |stronger| a hundred times stronger than that trash Xiao Xue in every way. Many people in the clan are dissatisfied with her, and we will help you."

Xiao Fengluan patted his shoulder and didn't say much.

Xiao Qingsi said: "Brother, should we remind him? If Patriarch really wants to deal with him for Xiao Xue..."

Xiao Fengluan raised her hand and saw the incomparably clear imprint of the green tripod appearing in her palm, this is the trace that only appeared when alchemy masters took medicine when they started.

It is so clear that the lines are visible, which is enough to explain Xiao Fengluan's talent.

"What kind of person do you think he is?"

Xiao Qingsi hesitated: "A...a person who doesn't know the details and is difficult to deal with. Anyway, he is not an ordinary person. I don't understand how he made Xiao Xue kneel down."

"I want to remind you." Xiao Fengluan said, "He asked Xiao Yue for something, so you can ask Xiao Yue if you have time."

"Ah."

………………

Lin Mo went down the mountain again.

There are quite a lot of clues discovered today. Some people in the Xiao family, the alchemist, and the film crew were also infiltrated by bugs, and there are also people who hide in the dark and seem to be secretly planning. The role of Maruo and Shen Dayong in it...

It is estimated that it is a pawn used by the people in the secret arrangement, and they are also used as a part of it. It seems that the purpose is to let them come to Luoshui Temple, find Master Yi, and kill him.

After he went down the mountain, he told Tang Yanchu and others about the situation, and it was already late when he went back.

When walking up the stone steps, for some reason, the street lights on both sides were dimly lit, as if they were covered with a layer of gray, making the surroundings more and more blurred.

Lin Mo gradually stopped and raised his head to look up. The moonlight was hidden in the clouds, and there was no trace. The stars were dim, and the surroundings were silent. Luoshui Temple was located at the top, but it seemed to be engulfed by darkness, and the mountain gate was closed.

Banban led Xiaosu out and landed on Lin Mo's shoulder.

The old ancestor also poked his head out slowly.

Lin Mo: "Something went wrong..."

…………

On the empty central square of Luoshui Temple, the two sides confront each other.

On one side, the film crew protected by Xiao Fengluan and others, the teachers and students of Peking University, Abbot Tianxing and some monks were also there.

On one side, under the flickering lights, a shocking scene appeared.

Cao Zhen's calves trembled, and he was caught hiding behind Wei Xiaoxiao: "Damn, what's the use of you hiding behind me, I can't protect you."

Cao Zhen: "Subconsciously, I, I'm afraid."

Wei Xiaoxiao: "I'm fucking afraid, where did Master Wuwu Lin go, and he hasn't come back yet."

Zhong Ning stared at the front with a solemn expression.

Meng Jirong comforted Professor Zhang and others.

Zhan Wenshuang stood with Bai Shiyuan, next to Xiao Yue, Zhan Wenshuang asked, "How long can Xiao Fengluan last?"

A piece of black powder was sprinkled around them, burning a faint phosphorescent light in the dark night, and exuding a strange smell.

It is precisely because of this smell that they are protected from being engulfed by the black tide-like bugs on the opposite side.

Xiao Fengluan and Xiao Qingsi resisted in front, while Xiao Xue stood behind in fear.

On the opposite side was an old monk wearing a white monk's robe. He looked benevolent, but behind him, there were countless gnats with tentacles and mouthparts, which were densely packed and wriggling layer upon layer.

Not only that, there were several monks in gray robes standing in the middle, their bodies were stiff, and the exposed skin was like a rough stone shell, apparently parasitized by gnats.

Xiao Yue glanced at the gunpowder that seemed to be extinguished, and gritted his teeth: "Persist... for a short time, I didn't expect that he would raise so many bugs here, it's like a nest of bugs."

He also didn't expect that shortly after Lin Mo left, the temple suddenly changed.

The Buddhist bell was rang suddenly, and countless bugs began to crawl out from the grass, corners, and various places, and finally forced them to the square, and the master who was hiding in the temple turned out to be Master Mingding.

Abbot Tianxing twirled the beads and sighed in a low voice: "Ming Ding, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, turn around and see the shore."

The old monk in white on the opposite side said with a smile: "I have reached the shore."

Zhan Wenshuang said coldly: "You want to kill us all? You can't escape even if you commit such a big crime."

"No, the poor monk has already prepared to kill you, change your appearance, and live in a different place." Mingding touched his face and smiled: "I am 130 years old, but my face looks like I am over 50. If I eat you, But if you are ten years younger, no one will be able to recognize you."

He still had a benevolent and kind-hearted image, and he even spoke in a moderate, soft voice, but it made everyone feel cold.

Ming Ding looked at Xiao Fengluan and the others' recalcitrance, and cast his eyes coldly, "The poor monk didn't want to hurt your lives, but whoever the alchemist came in, if the poor monk's details were exposed, what should I do, it's better to start first To be strong."

Zhan Wenshuang's eyes flashed, as expected, someone deliberately attracted them.

No matter whether it was found in the corpse of the crew or found in the construction site, it was not done explicitly, and...

He looked at the place covered by worms, the worker named Maro was dead, but Shen Dayong was hiding behind Ming Ding.

The two went towards Mingding at the same time, but Shen Dayong survived.

It shows that the pill that Shen Dayong killed his wife was given by Ming Ding, but the person who contacted Maro was not Ming Ding. He went towards Ming Ding, which would only make Ming Ding think that he was hostile, and was killed by moths before he could make a sound. die.

Facing Xiao Fengluan's resistance, Ming Ding was not in a hurry, he said slowly: "The poor monk has been in the temple for many years, concentrating on researching the art of killing and raising insects. They are hidden in every corner of Luoshui Temple. Over the years, the number It's impressive, even if the poor monk doesn't care about it, he won't be able to kill you all for one night."

Meng Jirong looked down at the phone, and didn't know what he did. Since the moment the bug appeared, the signal in the temple was cut off, and the phone couldn't be made. The walls and doors were covered with dense bugs. As long as you get close, you will be attacked.

Thanks to Xiao Fengluan and Xiao Qingsi's carrying medicine powder and other things to restrain gnats, they were able to persevere until now.

He approached Zhan Wenshuang and asked softly, "When will Master Lin Xiaoguan come back?"

Zhan Wenshuang: "Soon."

At this moment, Xiao Qingsi exclaimed: "Brother, my medicine powder is used up!"

The peculiar smell of medicine was transpiring in the air, and with the sound of teeth and feet rubbing and penetrating, the area where the medicine powder was laid gradually narrowed, and the flame similar to phosphorous fire slowly disappeared.

Seeing that the situation is getting worse.

As Mingding said, they will all die here tonight...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel even more desperate.

Just when Mingding showed a sure-fire smile, there was a sound like the armor of a mechanism.

A golden light suddenly sprinkled in the air, and several flexible golden-armored villains holding spears appeared, protecting Zhan Wenshuang and others.

Everyone couldn't help being taken aback when they saw the villain who was less than knee high and looked like a wooden armor made of gold thread.

The villain took out his spear and poked the bug on the ground. In an instant, sparks ignited, and the bug backed away in fear.

"Master Lin, it's Master Lin!" Wei Xiaoxiao's excited voice sounded.

Lin Mo held a glowing silk scroll, and at some point, he stood quietly on the square. He stood between the swarm of insects and the crowd, drawing a clear dividing line.

The interweaving of fear and hope, the intersection of light and darkness, the vision is dull and scarlet, and the smell of burning flames is scorching and suffocating.

The figure in the middle was reflected in everyone's eyes, but it was extremely bright.

The silk scroll is suspended upwards, and two little paper figurines can be vaguely seen sitting on it.

Banban pointed to the next scroll method and said: "Master, I used the golden armor body protection technique earlier, but now I can use the five thunder oil pool fire to burn all the bugs."

Lin Mo: "Well, give me ten seconds, and I will learn it."

The author has something to say: _(:з」∠)_Which one do you think is better for the next book?

One is that the lord is obsessed with infrastructure construction, the beautiful heartthrob Little Rose, who wears books, Western fantasy, from the Middle Ages to the industrial empire, is obsessed with infrastructure construction, the pope/duke/leader loves him hehe.

One is the restart of the reincarnation train, a brand new journey. What I want to write is the vast and fantastic world under the car, with deep sea monsters, adventure decryption, and the ancient city of Loulan. The protagonist is handsome and has huge golden fingers, leading the way.
