Chapter 114
It was drizzling again. Lin Du, accompanied by Ruo Li, followed Granny Ma along the mountain path.
“Why do you have to follow me? Isn’t it enough to scare them with your face?”
Lin Du pulled out a gauze scarf she used to cover her face in winter and haphazardly wrapped it around the lower half of her face. Covering her head with the scarf, she asked angrily, “Is it okay now?”
Granny Ma remained silent for a while, “There’s no one in the world who can do things like you. I asked you to watch the stove yesterday, but you insisted on studying some timing formation. My pot of medicine was almost ruined.”
“That girl cried for most of the night, and her eyes were almost blinded by tears. I didn’t even give her a glimpse into the future.” Lin Du reached out and pinched her ears, “Besides, I don’t have any consciousness. After it was released, Bai was just watching, just practicing the carving formation.”
“Then my pot lid almost exploded,” Granny Ma said calmly.
Lin Du was wearing a black robe today. Even though the material was of excellent quality, with gold threads densely woven and a vivid red treasure on the crane’s head, in Granny Ma’s eyes, she still looked like a bandit.
“That was an accident.” Lin Du coughed lightly, “The bone in my right hand was broken. I couldn’t hold it back for a moment, and the carving was broken.”
Carving formations on utensils a thousand miles away requires not only strong spiritual consciousness but also a steady hand.
Granny Ma looked back at her again, “You haven’t answered my original question yet.”
Lin Du knew she couldn’t avoid it, so she coughed lightly, “I just want to see if people in captivity still know how to be self-reliant?”
Granny Ma glanced at her little bandit follower, “You have a lot to worry about.”
Lin Du didn’t say anything, and Granny Ma suddenly grabbed her right wrist, “Hey, it’s not Granny, it hurts…”
The strange power penetrated her flesh, and Lin Du suddenly stopped speaking, stopped pretending, and let her reach her wrist bone.
The cold force wrapped around her wrist bones like a snake, “Mo Lin didn’t say a word when he pinched your wrist. Now you’re shouting that it hurts?”
Lin Du could still laugh, and the carelessness in her words could be heard through the gauze scarf, “It can be well maintained.”
The Yin Qi suddenly withdrew, “No wonder you have been wearing hard wrist guards these days.”
A dark plaster was thrown into Lin Du’s arms, “Put it on, and within five days…”
It takes more than a month for a young person’s bone fracture to heal on its own, but it takes ten and a half months for a monk to have the spiritual energy to heal.
Lin Du lowered her head and sniffed the smell of the plaster. It was more chaotic than the medicine she drank. She hesitated again and again, “There… are there no insects in it?”
“No,” Granny Ma said calmly, “But if there were, you wouldn’t want to. Something you know.”
Lin Du put aside her curiosity and said, “Then I won’t ask anymore.”
She felt good and put the plaster on herself, then refastened the wristband and arrived in front of Qinglu Village.
The village was still shrouded in mist and rain.
Lin Du entered the village and found that most of the people were still there. Only four or five underage young people had entered the city. They maintained their original living conditions. They had worked hard to survive these years and still had a lot of food given by the Moon God.
The well that had its bricks and stones stolen was rebuilt with ordinary bluestones. There was an offering table in front of it, with various blessing snacks on it. Now it has been soaked by the water from the sky, and there seems to be mold on it. I think it has been there for several days. No one is watching anymore.
Lin Du accompanied Granny Ma to deliver medicine to each household, but the excuse he gave was that it was a cold wave in spring, without the protection of the moon god, and the children were young and feared of getting sick.
Some people thanked them profusely, while others were hesitant.
Neither Granny Ma nor Lin Du tried to dissuade her. Lin Du behaved like a corpse puppet throughout the whole process. He didn’t speak and was only responsible for distributing medicine.
After the last delivery was finished, someone asked Granny Ma cautiously, “Are you still accepting servants? My boy will definitely be stronger and more capable than the ones behind you.”
Lin Du was recognized as a servant, and Granny Ma said to herself that Lin Du should be the same no matter what. He is a bandit, no matter what, he is just a servant.
Granny Map shook her head. Seeing the gloom and worry in the family’s eyes, she finally pointed the way, “In the past you couldn’t go up the mountain to pick wild products, but now you can. The fields are abandoned and can be cultivated again. How come there is no way to survive.”
The man was confused. He looked at the mother-in-law in front of him, “But… we won’t…”
Lin Du lowered his eyes, and the plaster on her wrist penetrated into her bones with a spicy and cold air. The cold and spicy taste was not pleasant.
She mechanically followed Granny Ma out of the last house, and suddenly said, “In just a few hundred years, a dozen generations, it would be enough to completely cripple a person.”
Granny Ma did not say anything. Lin Du was young, but he had little knowledge of worldly affairs. It is always easy to empathize. Such people are also gifted in spiritual matters. Being sensitive enough is not a bad thing.
“I once thought about a question, what if they don’t have their vitality drained out, have no shortage of food, clothing, or labor, and can live happily for forty or sixty years, and then their lives will be harvested?” “
Today’s young people People in Lu Village are secretly cursing the Moon God for abandoning them. They can’t get food, but they don’t know how to make a living.”
“I think there may be many people who are willing to do this, and even I have thought about it. If you arrange it well and have fun all day long, it will be enough food for you to become a human being.”
Granny Ma stopped and looked at the thin young man who still covered his face, “You want to be kept in captivity?”
Lin Du paused. , “But when I look at it today, I still think that people should always have a choice.”
“It is wrong to be raised as a baby without any choice. The predecessors may have agreed to sacrifice and be raised in captivity, but later Some people don’t want to be kept in captivity, and those young people who run away are the answer. “
As the pregnant woman said, people should always have the right to choose freely.”
The sky is high, the sea is vast, the desert is lonely, the sun sets over the long river, the south of the Yangtze River is covered in mist and ice. , people who are raised and lose their freedom can never understand it.
When one loses his labor force, creativity and even his mind, is a person really still a person?
After listening to what she said, Granny Map silently took away the curse seal on her hand.
Lin Du had no idea that he was about to be refined into a corpse puppet and kept in captivity. After walking out of the village, the gauze fell off his face, and his dark eyes showed a thoughtful light, “I looked over just now. They were all clean originally.” There was a bit of dust in many of the houses.
“It’s the homes of those young people who ran away.”
“At least I didn’t do anything bad. At least I gave them a choice.”
Granny Ma agreed . , “It’s not a good thing if you worry too much.”
Lin Du smiled and said nothing.
She doesn’t want to be the kind of superhero who picks up someone else’s car and throws it at the villain in a heroic story, or even accidentally drops a brick and kills someone’s family because the fight accidentally affects someone else’s home.
Lin Du thought that the butterfly effect, the wind that was blowing up, had better be the wind of hope.
“Mo Lin will be able to get rid of the remaining poison in five days. Then you should leave as soon as possible and take him back to your sect to raise him. My yard is a mess every day because of the noise.” Granny Ma said in a disgusted tone. She didn’t know what she was thinking of and added, “Your senior brothers are really busy these days.”
Lin Du’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and the smile on his face deepened, “No, after all, if you want to completely uproot a vine, those sideways and slanting The roots that draw out the vitality must be cut off first.”
“Do you want to hear it?”
Granny Ma said flatly, “No.”
Lin Du shrugged regretfully. Feng Yi and Ju Yuan must have collected a lot of treasures this time.
Only there is no news about the weapon refining shop.
