From the beginning of this turbid world, the Taoist priest descended the mountain.

Lin Ye wiped his hands with his clothes, then dragged the two corpses together and took out more than a dozen silver dollars and a piece of parchment from them.

Lin Ye didn't examine them closely and simply put them away.

In this life and the last, what he hated most was poisonous insects.

To say to him that you are a drug trafficker is to be courting death.

The forestry worker checked the bodies again, and finally threw them into the nearby Qing Shi River, watching the rushing water wash them away.

(The old man who sells his wife, children, and friends is a rare individual in the world, embodying the three turbidities. He possesses the three turbidities of the five turbidities: [the turbidity of perception], [the turbidity of afflictions], and [the turbidity of sentient beings]. After you refine the turbid energy, your spiritual sense +1, agility +1, and strength +1.)

Hmm? I actually gained three attribute points after taking down two of the Fortune and Longevity Cult members.

Indeed, upholding justice is never as effective as acting on behalf of Heaven.

Not bad, you're from the Tan'er Sect, right? You're from Fushoulao, right? I've got my eye on you.

The forestry logic is self-consistent; even without this reward, he wouldn't show any mercy to the people of Tan'er Sect.

[Yearly Ruler: Forestry]

[Qi and Blood: 6]

[Strength: 5] (Method: Life Fire Furnace)

[Agility: 3]

[Divine Sense: 2] (Method: Spiritual Vision)

He could feel a cool and refreshing sensation throughout his head, and even the duration of the [Spiritual Vision] technique seemed to have become longer.

It seems that after I improved my attributes, the corresponding [methods] next to those attributes will also receive a boost.

I wonder what kind of magic strength and agility will unlock.

The simplest way to obtain the [Dharma Gate] is to refine the Five Turbid Qi.

Among them, spiritual vision is obtained by refining the turbid energy.

The term "seeing defilements" in the original text refers to "the extinction of the true Dharma, the gradual rise of the semblance Dharma, the emergence of false Dharma, and the increase of wrong views, which cause people to not cultivate the path of goodness."

Usually, when turbidity appears, it is accompanied by the four evil spirits and energies around it.

After completing these tasks, the forestry department cleaned up the surrounding area.

He did not choose to return to the mortuary, but went directly to Liu Xiucai's place.

He chose to sit idly outside Liu Xiucai's house all night, pretending that he was worried about Liu Xiucai being drunk and had been keeping watch there all night.

Regardless, at least if these two bodies are discovered in the future, even if they end up in my possession, I'll have an alibi.

It's like having an extra layer of insurance.

The next day, when the sun shone on the three poles, he left Liu Xiucai's house and returned to the mortuary with the borrowed books.

……

Lin Ye didn't return home all night, but fortunately, when he went to buy food, he asked someone to bring a message to his senior brother.

Seeing Lin Ye return in the early morning, Lin Hao felt something was wrong, but after hearing Lin Ye say that he had drunk too much with Liu Xiucai the night before and that the old man was very drunk, he decided to stay with the old man for the night out of concern.

Lin Hao's furrowed brows relaxed, surprised that his junior brother was so thoughtful.

He had long felt that the relationship between his master and Mr. Liu could actually be eased. After all, they were from the same town and would see each other all the time during holidays.

However, I didn't expect that my junior brother would be more thorough in his work than I was.

Thinking of this, I smiled from the bottom of my heart.

"You haven't washed your face yet, have you? Go wash it quickly."

"Alright. Senior brother, I've already spoken to Mr. Liu. If I'm free in the afternoons, I'll go to his place to read. I've lived such a dissolute life before, and now I just want to read more books and learn more from you and Master."

These words struck a chord with Lin Hao, who felt that his junior brother had become a completely different person these past few days.

Lin Hao felt as if he had been filled with honey water.

My junior brother is really getting better and better. As for why he's so good...

Why think so much!

He lost a rebellious and taciturn junior brother, but gained a respectful and considerate junior brother who was quick-witted and diligent. He was overjoyed.

Just then, Lin Ye looked towards the "viewing hall" in the northwest corner.

With his enhanced spiritual vision, he looked at that place again. He felt that the dark energy hidden within had become even heavier.

"Senior brother, aren't you going to deal with those corpses inside?"

"Sigh, I've already mixed chicken blood and cinnabar and used an ink line to mark the coffin. If the Xiangxi corpse-driver doesn't come soon, and my master isn't here either, I'm afraid something really bad will happen if it really comes to the fifteenth."

Lin Hao took a deep breath. It seemed he really needed to notify his master in Goose City as soon as possible.

If the corpses in the viewing hall cause trouble, the three of them, fellow disciples, really wouldn't be able to handle it.

At noon, Lin Ye bought some food and went to check if Liu Xiucai had sobered up.

By evening, Lin Ye, who had spent the afternoon reading at Liu Xiucai's place, finally returned to the mortuary.

Compared to last night, today's harvest was almost negligible.

Despite reading several books of various kinds, his attribute points remained unchanged.

It seems that only reading books on cultivation related to Taoism, such as Taoist scriptures, can grant attribute points.

Since the senior disciple was not in the mortuary at the moment, Lin Ye directly took out the parchment he had seized from the two "lucky old men".

This thing seems to have a different feel to it; it feels very delicate, like touching a lover's hand.

This isn't sheepskin, it's human skin!

Lin Ye immediately realized that the two old men were carrying "human skin paper" made from human skin.

(Touching an object imbued with the Daoist essence of the [Southeast Evil Spirit True Lord] replenishes a trace of [impure and evil thoughts].)

(When you first obtain this item after igniting your inner fire, your current inner fire cannot refine it. Perhaps, after breaking free of the mortal body...)

We have already encountered the five turbidities: the turbidity of views, the turbidity of afflictions, and the turbidity of sentient beings.

However, this turbid energy is clearly of a higher level than the three energies refined before.

The so-called "impure lifespan" is also known as "impure lifespan". In ancient times, people lived to be 80,000 years old. Now, due to the increase of evil deeds, people's lifespan has decreased, so lifespan is short and those who live to be 100 years old are rare.

The more people yearn for "immortality" and seek ways to escape suffering, the heavier the turbid energy in their bodies becomes.

Through his spiritual vision, Lin Ye saw a wisp of decaying blue energy emanating from the human skin paper and surging into his wrist.

At the same time, some patterns began to appear on the human skin paper.

Lin picked it up and examined it closely, discovering it was a map. However, he couldn't figure out exactly where it was.

Just then, he suddenly felt a jolt in his chest, and that faint pain returned.

"Fang Can... Fang Can... Fang Can..."

The familiar voice echoed in my mind once again.

Forestry naturally knows what this is.

My facial acne has flared up again!

Could it really be related to that so-called "True Lord of the Evil Spirits of the South Seas"? I only absorbed a wisp of life-turbid energy just now, yet it triggered the recurrence of the human-faced sores.
