Chapter 22 Bai Suzhen "This is……" Jiang Lin frowned and looked at it, only to see a Taoist with a short stature and a big belly in the water mirror. Daoren has a very distinctive appearance, with green bean eyes, two long mustaches, small ears, a flat nose, but a wide mouth and thick lips. All in all, just one glance gave Jiang Lin a very uncomfortable feeling. "Yuhang County, Hangzhou Prefecture." The woman in white mentioned a place name, and then said, "This Taoist is there." "Is there anything special about this Taoist?" Jiang Lin asked doubtfully, his eyes fixed on the image of the Taoist. He always had a feeling that this Taoist was not a human being.
"This Taoist has some skills and practices Taoism, but he doesn't follow the right path." The woman in white whispered, "He spread strange diseases and plagues in Yuhang County, then treated them and sold so-called miracle drugs to make money." "Now, because of this Taoist's contribution to the fight against the plague, he has become a guest of honor of the Yuhang County Magistrate." "And the magistrate of Yuhang County and the magistrate of Qiantang County Wu were both Jinshi in the same class." Jiang Lin understood what the woman in white meant. Since this Taoist is using crooked means, and he spreads poison and treats himself, and uses it to make money. From this it seems that he is a guy who is greedy for wealth and glory in the world. Since the Yuhang County Magistrate and the Qiantang Wu County Magistrate were of the same class and both served in Hangzhou, there must have been frequent contacts between the two. It is very likely that this Taoist will be introduced to Magistrate Wu to "exorcise evil spirits" for the son of Magistrate Wu. Those who practice evil ways don't care about cause and effect. After all, no matter how much the Retribution Department issues orders and blessings, the twins are just two little ghosts. There is no need to perform any rituals. Once the yang energy rushes into them, they will be subjected to untold torture. This is also the reason why Master Wu refused to leave the room after being possessed. "If this Taoist is really allowed to go, then the two wronged souls will surely be scattered." The woman in white looked at Jiang Lin and asked with a smile, "I don't know, do you care or not? Does the Black Law have such legal requirements?" Jiang Lin shook his head slightly and said, "There is no such record in the Black Law." "I have no control over the revenge of the wronged spirit, and I also have no control over other people wanting to exorcise ghosts." "then you……" The woman in white stared at Jiang Lin closely. It was obvious that what she wanted was not Jiang Lin's answer based on the black law. But, Jiang Lin’s true intention.
"I'll take care of it." Jiang Lin said decisively without hesitation: "There are too many injustices in the world, and I can't control them all, but since I have cultivated the Tao, accepted the Black Law, and become a mage." "Well, at least I have to take care of the injustices in the underworld." "If revenge cannot be taken in life, it must be taken after death. Otherwise, there will be no fairness in this world." Hearing the young Taoist's soft but firm words, the woman in white suddenly laughed. This smile is like all the mountains turning red and like fairy flowers blooming. Jiang Lin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and stopped looking. "very nice……" The woman in white suddenly said. "what?" Jiang Lin blinked in confusion. Her voice was so soft, so soft that Jiang Lin couldn't hear it clearly even though he was very close to her. "nothing." The woman in white shook her head slightly. It’s great that you are still the same as before. That innocent heart that you had when we first met has not disappeared with the passage of years. "Don't worry about the Taoist priest. My sister is watching." The woman in white changed the subject and said, "If he really comes to Qiantang County, I will let you know." "Sister?" Jiang Lin was suddenly stunned. A Taoist who spreads plague and seeks profit, a stunning woman in white, and the girl she mentions. Why does it sound so familiar? "She is my adopted sister. Although she may be a little reckless, she will not do anything bad. Don't worry." The woman in white had no doubts and explained with a smile. "I see." Jiang Lin stood up suddenly with suspicion in his heart and said, "Excuse me, I haven't asked for your name yet." "Ah, the tea has gone cold three times, and you just remembered to ask?" The woman in white smiled playfully and said angrily, "No woman will like you in the future if you behave like this." Jiang Lin blinked. How does this relate to whether the woman likes him or not? What does it have to do with me whether you like it or not? The woman in white saw this and smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth. It’s just right that no other woman likes me.
"Listen carefully." she says. Jiang Lin nodded and pretended to listen, but he already had a vague answer in his mind, and now he just needed to confirm it. "My surname is Bai, my name is Suzhen, and I have been practicing under the guidance of the Old Mother of Mount Li since I was young." As she spoke, a white mist rose up from around Bai Suzhen, and under the mist, the stunning figure in white slowly disappeared. "Please remember this, don't forget it." As the white mist dissipated, Bai Suzhen's figure also disappeared. Jiang Lin nodded slightly at the empty chair, his expression a little dazed. It's really Bai Suzhen... Jiang Lin was a little shocked, but not too shocked. Hangzhou, West Lake, Qiantang, these elements added together, there is a Bai Suzhen, it is not something difficult to accept. "That makes sense." Jiang Lin muttered to himself. Because strictly speaking, the Old Mother of Mount Li is also a great deity of Taoism, and Bai Suzhen also practices the Lishan method, making her a genuine disciple of the righteous Taoism. Such a being, having seen the viper by the West Lake, would naturally not sit idly by. It is also reasonable to lend a helping hand to Jiang Lin. “But it always feels a little weird.” Jiang Lin scratched his head, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. In the end, I could only shake my head and stop thinking about these troublesome things. Anyway, he can now be sure of one thing, that Bai Suzhen is a friend, not an enemy. Although Bai Suzhen is an alien, she is an elf of the correct way and a Taoist practitioner with a legitimate lineage. Jiang Lin naturally would not have any prejudice against such an existence. "Next, we just have to wait for news." Jiang Lin took one last look in the direction of the Wu family, stood up, left the tea stall, and walked straight towards the city gate. Not far behind Jiang Lin, there were two servants following. The two of them looked at Jiang Lin's figure and rubbed their eyes unconsciously. "Brother, this Taoist couldn't be a ghost, right? Why did he suddenly disappear and reappear?" In the eyes of both of them, they didn't see the tea stall at all. They just followed Jiang Lin and suddenly found that he disappeared.
They didn't dare to go over to look, but just hid in the dark and waited. After waiting for a stick of incense, I finally saw Jiang Lin's shadow again. "Shut up!" The older boy cursed and said, "Why are you talking about this so late at night?" "The master's order is to follow him, so hurry up!" ………… In front of the city gate, Jiang Lin twitched his ears, ignored the tail behind him, and just came to the city gate, pinched a seal with his hands, and his figure became blurred. When he reappeared, he was already outside the city. Strictly speaking, the art of walking through walls is not a magic spell, but a folk trick. Small spells like this, which are not advanced but very convenient, are also recorded in the Black Law. Jiang Lin doesn't know about other practitioners, but he can learn it at a glance. Jiang Lin left Qiantang County and was about to rush back to the Taoist temple in the dark, but his expression suddenly changed. His eyes looked towards a corner not far away. There was a dilapidated City God Temple there, which was obviously abandoned. Two lights could be vaguely seen lit up in it, casting a few blurry shadows. Jiang Lin looked at one of the shadows and couldn't help smacking his lips. "Why are there so many things going on tonight?" (End of this chapter)
