Chapter 19: They really don’t listen to what Lin Mo says!
Yes, what exactly is the scene in this room?
On the redwood bed, Zhi’an Xie straddled Zhiqu Xie, her hands pulling at her sister’s collar.
No, it should be said that a large part of the collar had already been torn. Her fair and delicate shoulders looked as if they would burst with a single touch.
Her gaze shifted slightly downward, to the magnificent and vast…
Wait, this is wrong, it’s a bit too flat…
Lin Mo was no saint. Since he had seen it, he might as well look carefully.
Zhiqu Xie’s already rosy cheeks were now like a heated iron ball. One could faintly see the steam rising from her face. In her confusion and helplessness, she burrowed into the covers.
“Senior Brother, what do you mean by this?”
Zhiqu Xie’s face darkened. No one would be happy to have their ‘pleasant’ activity interrupted.
“Ahem!”
Lin Mo coughed awkwardly, communicating with the Liuli Sword in his heart.
You’d best find that ghost for me, or you might spend the rest of your life with excrement.
And male excrement at that!
“I didn’t lie to you. Just look at the corner by the head of the bed!” the Liuli Sword Spirit’s tone was full of certainty.
Lin Mo was also puzzled. He had sensed this room and detected nothing unusual.
However, at this point, he had no other choice.
“Junior Sister, would you believe me if I said I was here to catch a ghost?”
“Senior Brother, you’d better really be here to catch a ghost.” Zhi’an Xie’s voice was a little cold.
Lin Mo walked towards the head of the bed.
Then, he covered the entire room with his Spiritual Energy.
If there were any ghosts, they would surely reveal themselves!
In the corner by the head of the bed, a wisp of blue remnant soul, as if startled, darted out of the door.
Everyone present saw it clearly.
Zhi’an Xie leaned against the side of the bed and picked up her sword. “Senior Brother, don’t tell me that’s the ghost you were talking about!”
Such remnant souls had no consciousness of their own; they couldn’t even be called complete souls, let alone ghosts.
Lin Mo knew this, and Zhi’an Xie also knew this.
“Junior Sister, you saw it too. There’s something unclean in your room!”
With that, Lin Mo turned and fled.
He couldn’t stay here any longer!
As he left, he didn’t forget to close the door.
Unfortunately, the door had been damaged when he first entered and couldn’t be closed no matter what.
In the end, Lin Mo had to retreat to his own room dejectedly.
He threw the Liuli Sword onto the table and said angrily, “Are you playing with me?”
“Little Li didn’t!”
“You also said that remnant souls are also unclean things, considered Yin malevolent entities. Little Li was just doing as you said, and can’t be blamed for anything else.”
The Liuli Sword Spirit spoke logically.
But Lin Mo felt that this guy probably knew his requirements and deliberately played this trick on him.
However, he couldn’t do anything about it.
“Fine, you win this time.”
The Liuli Sword Spirit seemed very happy. Hearing Lin Mo’s concession, it even let out a whimpering sound.
“Now, I’ll restate my request. If you detect a very strong Yin malevolent entity, one whose resentment has at least condensed into a tangible form, then you tell me its location!”
“So that’s how it is. You should have told Little Li your requirements earlier.”
“So, do you know its location now?” Lin Mo asked.
“No!!!”
Lin Mo’s forehead throbbed.
Thus, the Liuli Sword was thrown into the brazier again to be roasted.
“Big bad guy, you’re doing this to Little Li again. It’s hot, hot, hot!”
“I just thought you had some dust on you and was cleaning it off!” Lin Mo said with a gentle smile.
Finally, amidst the Liuli Sword Spirit’s curses, Lin Mo subjected it to ‘high-temperature sterilization’ more than ten times, back and forth.
……
The next day, the states of the junior sisters were all different.
Zhi’an Xie’s resentment towards Lin Mo had almost condensed into a tangible form, while Zhiqu Xie blushed whenever she saw Lin Mo.
“Slept so comfortably!” Ruoyan Qu stretched her back, looking full of energy.
“You slept comfortably, but you kept talking in your sleep all night, listing a bunch of dishes. How could I sleep?” Xia He had dark circles under her eyes and looked listless.
“I’m so sorry, Xia Xia!” Ruoyan Qu scratched her head sheepishly. “I’ve had a habit of calling out food in my sleep since I was little!”
“Then could you have told me earlier before asking me to share a room with you!” Xia He said speechlessly.
After breakfast, Lin Mo decided to go to Steward Ding’s place.
After getting a general idea of the location of Steward Ding’s mansion from the waiter, they set off immediately.
Along the way, Xia He also felt that the atmosphere between the Xie sisters and Lin Mo was a bit strange.
“What’s wrong? You’re giving him a look like you want to kill him?” Xia He patted Zhi’an Xie on the shoulder, full of curiosity.
“It’s nothing, I just find Senior Brother Lin particularly annoying!”
Zhi’an Xie found it inconvenient to talk about what happened last night.
“It seems we’re on the same page. I also find this guy very annoying!” Xia He, as if she had found her ‘partner,’ became close with Zhi’an Xie in no time.
In their words, they were saying all sorts of bad things about Lin Mo.
Lin Mo didn’t care. Anyway, after this training mission ended, he wouldn’t interact with these junior sisters anymore.
Ruoyan Qu gnawed on a meat bun, looking confused. “I think Senior Brother Lin is very good!”
Lin Mo was a little surprised. He didn’t expect there to be a little angel in the team.
“How is that kind of person good?” Xia He frowned. “What love potion did he give you to make you think that way?”
“Senior Brother treated me to meat buns yesterday, and he made sure I ate well at the inn.” When it came to food, Ruoyan Qu seemed very happy.
“Look at you, so easily satisfied!” Xia He said. “I’ll buy you whatever you want to eat for the next few days!”
Ruoyan Qu’s eyes sparkled. She took Xia He’s hand and said sincerely, “Xia Xia, you’re such a good person!”
“So, do you still think Senior Brother Lin is good now?” Xia He glanced triumphantly at Lin Mo.
Ruoyan Qu said without hesitation, “Xia Xia and Senior Brother Lin are both good people!”
Pfft, this ‘naturally naive’ girl is quite cute.
Lin Mo thought that with her ‘grateful’ nature, who wouldn’t be easily swayed by a little kindness, she was much better than his own junior sister who grew up with him.
Xia He shook her head helplessly. She didn’t expect Ruoyan Qu to be so simple.
She didn’t want to lead this pure girl astray either, so she stopped talking.
Just as they were heading towards Steward Ding’s location, a clamor of shouts came from not far away.
Looking in the direction of the sound, a scarred man was fiercely glaring at an old man with white hair.
“I’m telling you, are you going to pay this month’s rent or not? Do you still want to do business?”
“Master Tang, please give this old man a few more days. I’ll definitely be able to pay the rent in a few days.”
As he spoke, the old vendor who was selling vegetables handed over several rolls of vegetables he had packed to the big man. “Master Tang, take these home to eat first.”
“What do I want your broken wild vegetables for!!!” the big man swept them away with his hand, scattering the rolled vegetables all over the ground.
The old man had to silently pick up the scattered wild vegetables piece by piece.
The other vendors just watched, clearly not intending to intervene.
For them, things like this had long been commonplace.
Lin Mo saw that the four junior sisters’ faces were all filled with anger, so he kindly reminded them.
“Some things are not as simple as they appear on the surface.”
“Blindly helping the weak without planning will only harm them.”
Clearly, they didn’t listen to Lin Mo’s words.
“They even bully the elderly. What a scoundrel!”
With a roar, Xia He led the junior sisters and rushed forward.
