Asking about longevity

Lu Ming was tortured by Mo Hua and became completely honest.

Situ Fang was a little surprised. On the way back, he kept looking at the ink paintings secretly, wondering in his heart.

The child in Mo Hua looks cute and innocent.

How do you frame, threaten, torture, and force someone so skillfully...

Who taught this?

Several people left the Lu family's mine.

The next thing will be left to Daotingsi.

The mine repairman was found. What was the cause of death, whether he was killed by a monk, and who the murderer was, including the issue of subsequent compensation, were all handled by the Daoting Division.

Situ Fang breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mo Hua:

"Thank you so much this time. I'll treat you to something delicious when you have time!"

"Thank you Sister Situ!"

Mo Hua thought for a moment and then whispered: "Sister Situ, if Daotingsi finds out clues to the murderer, can you tell me?"

Situ Fang frowned slightly.

Daotingsi handles cases, and the details of the case are never leaked.

But Mo Hua helped a lot in this matter. Without him, even the corpse of the mine repairman wouldn't be found, so it seemed like there was no harm in telling him.

When thinking of this, Situ Fang suddenly felt confused and said:

"How did you find that mine?"

She had wanted to ask when she was in the mine.

Looking at the ordinary stone wall, why is there a formation?

How did Mo Hua know that there was a cave behind the stone wall?

Mo Hua said reservedly: "I just became a little stronger in spiritual consciousness, and then I knew a little bit about the formation, and then I discovered it by chance."

Situ Fang's expression was complicated. For a moment, he didn't know whether what Mo Hua said was true or false.

But she didn't ask in detail, nodded and said:

"I know. If there are any clues, I will tell you secretly when the time comes."

Mo Hua smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Situ."

Then everyone said goodbye.

Before Mo Hua left, he gave Lu Ming a meaningful look, "What should be said and what shouldn't be said, do you understand?"

Lu Ming trembled with fright and nodded repeatedly, "I understand, I understand!"

Mo Hua nodded happily.

After leaving the Lu family's mine, Mo Hua and the others returned to Nanyue Inn, met with Mr. Zhuang, and told them about the mine.

Mr. Zhuang frowned and said nothing.

Mo Hua whispered: "Master, I suspect that there are clues about the murderer."

Mr. Zhuang smiled slightly and said, "How did you tell?"

"The dead mine cultivator seemed to have a trace of Jue Zhen's aura..."

Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi looked at each other. They didn't know how to calculate, so they didn't notice anything.

"Do you know what Jue Zhen is?" Mr. Zhuang asked again.

Mo Hua shook his head and said with some disappointment:

"The breath is too light, and the traces of the formation are shallow, I can't figure it out..."

"But..." Mo Hua thought of something and was a little surprised, "This breath of Jue Zhen is a bit evil..."

"Evil..."

Mr. Zhuang's eyes were uncertain.

"Master, is there also an absolute formation in the evil formation?" Mo Hua asked.

Mr. Zhuang nodded, "In this world, there is good and there is evil, and the same is true for formations."

"Then what's the difference between Xie Yi's Jue Formation and ordinary Jue Formation?"

Mr. Zhuang glanced at the curious ink painting and suddenly smiled:

"You can figure this out yourself, so I won't tell you."

"Can you figure it out yourself?"

Mo Hua was stunned and whispered: "But I didn't understand..."

Mr. Zhuang smiled and said: "If you can find this perfect formation, you will naturally understand."

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "So Master, is there really a Jue Formation hidden in Nanyue City?"

Mr. Zhuang was startled, and then he said with a smile but not a smile:

"Who knows? I haven't left the inn, how can I know..."

Mo Hua's big eyes flickered, staring at Mr. Zhuang, and then he gradually became more confident.

There must be some!

Whenever Mr. Zhuang shows such a showy expression, it means there is something going on.

Mr. Zhuang shook his head slightly and touched Mo Hua's little head, "Maybe you have to stay here longer and find a cave to stay. The inn is noisy and not convenient.

"Dongfu?" Mo Hua was a little surprised.

He has grown so old and has not yet lived in a cave.

Cultivation caves are generally very expensive.

In Tongxian City, only monks with a good reputation or family background can afford spiritual stones and buy a cave.

For example, Master Luo, who is a first-level formation master, and Mr. An, the leader of the An family.

Although Mo Hua himself is also a first-grade formation master, he is not as "corrupt" as Master Luo. He usually draws formations for others and receives very few spiritual stones.

If it were like those casual cultivators in Dongshan Village, he wouldn't even confiscate the spirit stones.

As long as they produce spiritual ink themselves, that's fine.

I just treat it as free practice.

So although he does not lack spiritual stones now, he is far from being that wealthy.

"Dongfu, it's very expensive..." Mo Hua said weakly.

When Mr. Zhuang saw Mo Hua's expression, a smile appeared on his lips and he said gently:

"You are now a first-grade formation master. With your status, it is strange that you do not live in a cave."

"But……"

"Don't worry about Lingshi." Mr. Zhuang said, "You and your senior brothers and sisters will go to the city to choose a cave later."

Now that Mr. Zhuang had spoken, Mo Hua could only nod his head, and then asked:

"What kind of cave should I choose?"

"Look at the aura, look at the direction, look at the formation, look at the five elements." Mr. Zhuang said.

Mo Hua was startled for a moment, and then gradually figured it out.

Master is testing himself.

On the surface, I am choosing a cave, but in fact, I still look at the formation, the aura, and the knowledge and understanding of various monastic principles.

"Okay, Master."

After taking some time in the afternoon, Mo Hua followed Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi to the streets of Nanyue City, hoping to rent a cave.

It's too expensive to buy, and they only live temporarily, so they can just rent one.

Mo Hua has never lived in a cave, but he still knows how to find a cave and the doorways inside.

He grew up in Tongxian City, and has always been very popular among monks like Dahu Dazhu who are about the same age.

Later, he became an formation master and had a wide network among some adults.

Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he still knew the secrets among the lower-level monks.

Although Nanyue City is not Tongxian City, the rules of conduct of the low-level casual cultivators are very similar.

Generally speaking, the leasing and sales of Dongfu rely on Yahang as an intermediary.

The intermediary of a dental shop is usually called a dental agent.

Mo Hua went to a dental shop and found a clever dental man who wanted to rent a cave.

Yaren glanced at Mo Hua's three children, looking a little confused and a little cold.

He thought Mo Hua was making fun of him.

Three little kids, what kind of cave do you want to rent?

Mo Hua threw a spirit stone to him.

Yaren was startled, weighed the spirit stone in his hand, and immediately put a smile on his face:

"You three little friends, what kind of cave do you want to see?"

Regardless of whether these three children rent it or not, he has earned this spiritual stone anyway.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t buy it.

Just think of it as taking a spiritual stone and going shopping with these three children. It's not a loss.

Mo Hua didn't know what kind of cave he wanted, so he said, "Show us."

"okay!"

So Yaren enthusiastically led the way and took them to visit the caves listed in the Yaxing register one by one.

Yaren led the way and said eloquently:

"This cave is good, the place is big, very spacious..."

"This cave is good, it's small and very exquisite..."

"This cave is good, the terrain is high, and it's very impressive..."

"This cave is also good. It's low-lying and very low-key..."

Anyway, it’s good no matter what. The big one is called “spacious”, the small one is called “exquisite”, the tall one is called “impressive”, and the low one is called “low-key”. You can always find something to praise...

Mo Hua silently remembered it and felt that he should learn this kind of speaking skills.

Once you learn it, you can open your eyes and praise others like lies.

Yaren was a little reserved at first, but then he thought that the guests he was bringing were three children, and there was no point in lying to them.

Besides, it didn't matter whether they would rent or not. Gradually, he began to relax and tell the truth...

"This cave is good, but it's just a cosmetic. It looks good, but it's uncomfortable to live in..."

"This cave, forget it, cut corners..."

"It's a pity that this cave has fake mountains and water, and all the formations, but it's just that people have died..."

"How did you die?"

Mo Hua's curiosity arose.

"That's not clear..." Yaren shook his head and said, "Some say he went crazy while practicing and his tendons were severed and died; some say he was an enemy seeking revenge and killed himself with a knife; some say he was After offending the Lu family, he was killed and thrown into the mine..."

"Did the Lu family really do such a thing?"

"That's..." Yaren suddenly realized what he said and realized he had made a mistake. He said with a smile: "It's just a rumor, a rumor..."

Walking to the next cave, he said again:

"Everything about this cave is good. The layout is exquisite and gorgeous. There are flower and tree formations in the garden. The formations are activated with spiritual stones. The garden is full of flowers, fragrant and beautiful. However, it is best not to rent this one..."

"Why?"

Yaren lowered his voice, "This is the head of Daotingsi, used to keep the mistress..."

Mo Hua was shocked, "You know all this?"

Ya Ren curled his lips and said, "Outsiders don't know this kind of gossip, but insiders like us hear it every day, and our ears are calloused."

Bai Zisheng also asked: "What then?"

Ya Ren gloated: "The Dongchuang Incident happened. The principal's wife led someone to catch the mistress, tore up the mistress's face, and soaked the wound with poisonous powder, leaving her disfigured for the rest of her life."

"The boss wanted to stop him, but he failed and was torn all over with wounds..."

Mo Hua was stunned, and after a while he couldn't help but sigh:

"The life of monks in Nanyue City is quite colorful..."

The Yaren hummed softly: "We are full and warm, and we are thinking about lust. Monks of their status have no worries about food and drink, and spiritual stones are given to them. Naturally, they have to find ways to have some fun. There are a lot of such messy things..."
