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

As mentioned before, this Yin-Yang Dirty Kung Fu originates from the lower body's kidney source, which belongs to Yin Water. It is incompatible with the Life Fire Furnace that is frequently used in forestry during the day.

During this period, Lin Ye used the Life Fire Furnace to dispel evil spirits with the yang energy of his upper body, which caused his practice of "Water Yin Dirty Kung Fu" to stagnate.

During this period, he was busy with things during the day, but he had free time at night, so Lin Ye picked up this thing.

As the energy began to rise, Lin Ye felt a cool sensation gradually rising in his lower abdomen, followed by a surge of lustful desire.

At the same time, a series of noises appeared in my mind.

For some reason, the image of a woman suddenly appeared in Lin Ye's mind.

Mei Lingyun appeared before the forestry department in a blue floral print dress and jacket, her pure and innocent student attire.

"Brother Ye, they're forcing me to marry the foolish son of Master Huang."

She placed her hands on Lin Ye's shoulders, her eyes filled with a hint of allure.

The poems of the ancients are most easily forgotten, and the longing for love is most disdained.

Tears welled in her eyes, sliding down her cheeks, her lips trembling like petals battered by rain and wind. Her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders like a gentle stream.

She slowly approached Lin Ye.

"call--"

Lin Ye fell off the bed instantly, panting heavily, his face showing lingering fear and trembling.

He lost his composure. He looked at his restless lower abdomen, his mind filled with wicked thoughts.

Damn it, I underestimated the cultivation techniques provided by this panel.

The life-fire furnace connects to the walking ape method, and also the mind-ape form—that is, the mind-ape in the cultivation of the life body. The metal and fire energies of the heart and lungs are the most restless and turbulent.

To cultivate these skills, one must emphasize stillness. Therefore, the method of standing meditation is used to cultivate a calm mind through stillness.

Subdue the restless and agitated mind.

Water belongs to the kidneys, and kidney water represents desire. That black pig in the muddy ground, rooting around in cassava every day—that's not food. That's human desire.

The desires in people's hearts are like a boulder rolling down a mountain; once they start, they can never be stopped.

Although Lin Ye did not practice standing meditation, he still used the method of stillness meditation to practice this Water Yin Dirty Kung Fu.

When you calm down, desires arise and flaws appear. The more you suppress them, the stronger they become when they arise.

The breaking of the meditation technique marked the first setback that Lin Ye encountered in his spiritual practice.

At this moment, after a busy day, Lin Ye felt embarrassed to wake his master and senior brother, who had already gone to bed, and asked them questions about cultivation.

But the feeling of unease in my heart only intensified.

From the moment he received the cheat code until now, Lin Ye's path of cultivation has been, if not smooth sailing, certainly unstoppable.

The sore on the human face has broken open.

Tan'er instructed Ji Qian to kill him.

Once the mortal realm is broken, one enters a state of nourishment and rest.

This achievement would be considered remarkable at any time.

But during one of his meditation sessions that very night, he unexpectedly failed and his practice was disrupted.

Sometimes when things go too smoothly for a person, they become incredibly irritable and upset when they encounter even the slightest setback.

Lin Ye crawled up from the ground, his face frighteningly black. He was no less terrifying than a hideous evil spirit.

Damn it, after all these years of cultivation, I've failed in such a simple place today. It's simply unacceptable.

I stormed out of the room to go for a walk and calm myself down.

(Cultivation is about passing five trials, all of which are just feigned by the practitioner. Beauty is a double-edged sword, and the righteous path in the world is hard to extinguish.)

forestry:"……"

Huh? You really think I can't understand your sarcastic remarks? Who are you trying to be sarcastic about? I just haven't succeeded once.

Lin Ye walked along the road in Qingshi Town, facing the night breeze.

Because the events of the past two days have had a really bad impact on Qingshi Town, special personnel have been arranged to patrol the town at night.

The constable on night patrol saw Lin Ye carrying a lantern and was about to call out to stop him, but after seeing what Lin Ye looked like, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Lin, you're out on business so late."

They saw that Lin Ye's face was terribly dark, but they didn't dare to ask.

"Okay, I'm going to my junior brother Sanbao's house."

"Oh, be careful."

The man watched Lin Ye leave in the opposite direction, and smiled apologetically.

But after Lin Ye had gone some distance, he suddenly realized that the direction he went was not his junior brother Sanbao's house at all, but more like Mei's rice shop.

……

Mei Lingyun's life was not good.

It can be said that her family is the biggest victim of this Qingshi Town incident.

Her father died, and her mother died too. Several of her maids and servants also died.

They were originally a moderately wealthy family in Qing Shi Town, but now they've been forced to their doorstep.

Mei Cailu is usually stingy, and even though he runs a rice shop, he's still a shrewd businessman. But ultimately, he comes from a good family.

Sure enough, Mei Cailu's elder brother, Mei Renxing, arrived with his men.

He sat in a chair, looking at the trembling Mei Lingyun, and said, "Lingyun, this Mei family rice shop is also your father's hard work. You, a girl, can't manage it. Listen to your uncle, marry Master Huang's son. I, your uncle, will reluctantly help you keep an eye on this rice shop. Your cousin has taken a fancy to the girl from the Sun family in Goose City. This girl is asking for a dowry of three hundred silver dollars. You are all related, so you can't ignore it."

As soon as he finished speaking, his second uncle, Mei Daoyi, who was sitting on another chair next to him, became unhappy.

He slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and looked at the eldest brother, saying, "Big brother, the third brother just died and you're already bullying someone's daughter like this. Have you no shame! Lingyun, don't be afraid, your second uncle is here. Listen to your second uncle, obediently mortgage this shop, and your second uncle will help you get a job with a family in Shuibian Town, the Wu family, the shipping magnates. The eldest son of the Wu family is a bit old, but he knows how to treat people well. The reason our Mei family's business is so big is because we have to make friends. You shouldn't study, that stuff is useless. Just have a son as soon as possible, and dump the eldest son of the Wu family's wife, that's the right way."

Mei Lingyun's face turned pale with anger, and she stood at the front with her fists clenched.

These two uncles not only came, but they also brought several thugs with them. Their parents had just passed away, and they couldn't wait to come over.

No wonder my father hasn't contacted his family for so many years. He just doesn't have a way to make money, but these relatives are the ones who are truly inhuman and unethical.

Behind Mei Lingyun stood the remaining employees of the Mei family's rice shop.

They escaped the disaster two days ago, but now the Mei family has arrived. If Miss really gives up the shop, they'll all lose their jobs.

Seeing that Mei Lingyun remained silent, which was inhumane, Mei Renxing continued to speak.

"Lingyun, your uncle is also very saddened by what happened to your family. But when a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; the deceased is gone, and you have to think about your own future. Listen to your uncle; your uncle won't harm you. You've married into the Huang family, and you're educated. Even if your son can't win you over, Master Huang still prefers girls who are educated. Father and son are the same."

Mei Lingyun's eyes turned red as she listened, gritting her teeth as she looked at her uncle.

People know that ghosts are terrifying, but how can people know that people's hearts are wicked?

Seeing that Mei Lingyun did not move, Mei Renxing got up and walked towards her. He grabbed her and glared at her fiercely, scolding her.

"Your father was an idiot, he didn't know when to back down and now he's dead. Your mother is a country bumpkin too. If you stay here any longer, who will want you when she gets old and loses her beauty?"

But just then, a cloth shoe flew in and hit him directly in the face.

Lin Ye slowly walked in. It was late at night, and his cultivation hadn't gone smoothly, leaving him fuming. He wanted to find some scoundrels to vent his anger on, and luckily, the Mei family's rice shop had just the right ones.

Seeing Lin Ye approach, Mei Lingyun's eyes seemed to light up.

The Taoist priest and the rice shop have always had a close relationship, and he really wouldn't want the Mei family rice shop to be taken over.

After all, Mei Lingyun really did give him a discount.

"What the hell are you?"

"I am your father, Mei Qianhua."

Mei Lingyun: "?" Brother Ye, you...
