Chapter 11 Secretly assassinating Chen Cang
Lin Yue pondered for a long time. She couldn't solve her immediate financial problems, and while she had cultivated her inner strength, what could she do? She wanted to address her financial issues. The bank had already delayed payments for three months, and her husband Gong Yong's salary remained the same—two or three thousand yuan a month—far from enough to support their current lifestyle. After paying the mortgage, they were left with no money. How could she change this?
She suddenly remembered that he had a friend who might be able to change things.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Yue's eyes as she muttered to herself, "I don't know if he can help, but for now, I can only give it a try." She picked up her phone and began searching for her friend's contact information.
She frantically searched her contacts, finally finding the number, but couldn't make the call. He asked the remnant soul of Xueyang deep within his soul, "Remnant Soul Xueyang, I've cultivated Qi and can now write talismans. How do I use this spatial talisman as a vessel?"
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "Jade can be used in this small world, jade."
"I don't have any jade with me."
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "Take a look. Even without jade, some special stones can still exist if they have a certain amount of energy."
Lin Yue showed everything to Chang Hun Xueyang. One of the bags with a broken string contained beads, though she didn't know what kind. Lin Yue had bought them online, but the string was broken. The string of beads had 108 beads and seemed to have been blessed, but she still didn't know what they were. However, those beads should be able to be stored within Lin Yue's spatial magic.
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "You have that string of 108 beads, which can serve as a vessel. However, when your Fortune and Prosperity Space is activated, the space shouldn't be very large. Also, depending on the level of each person's spiritual power, the size of that space may vary. Initially, for an ordinary person, this space might only be about five square meters or five cubic meters, that should be it!"
Lin Yue frowned and said, "Only five cubic meters? That's too small. Can we find a way to increase it?"
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "These 5 cubic meters are already quite large for ordinary people in your world. Have you thought about Lin Yue? If you sell this spatial storage ability to an ordinary person, and he uses it for illegal things—illegally, you know? I found out from your computer that this country prohibits weapons from entering. If someone who owns these 5 cubic meters goes abroad and brings weapons back through these 5 cubic meters, causing some bad things to happen, have you thought about the consequences?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue's heart skipped a beat, and her expression turned serious: "Oh dear, I really didn't think of this. It's really too dangerous."
Lin Yue, I know you're just an ordinary person, an ordinary mom in this vast world. But do you know? You were once me, willing to sacrifice yourself to protect this world, just like the soldiers in your current world who strive to protect the country's stability. Although I am but a remnant soul, I cannot ask you to stand in that heroic role and protect all the people here. But I hope you understand that we cannot bring chaos to this world.
Lin Yue's eyes welled up with tears, and she said firmly, "I understand. I won't do anything reckless, and I definitely won't cause trouble for this world."
Lin Yue, every world has its own rules. Before, you didn't have this trace of spiritual energy, so I didn't tell you. Now that you have it, I'm telling you: the laws of heaven and earth exist, these natural laws exist, and there are immortals who cultivate to become true beings. There are also cultivators in this world. Although the lack of essential elements makes their cultivation slow, and many cannot ascend, this world is still a favored place. Millions of years ago, this world was a place where many beings could become spirits, immortals, or Buddhas. Now, the many beings in this world are simply cultivating and will gradually achieve their goals.
Lin Yue listened intently, murmuring, "So that's how it is. There are so many mysteries in this world that I don't know about."
So, Lin Yue, I've given you the method to this space, which can help this country. But right now, your abilities are too low; you can't protect yourself. If you don't want to become a tool for one side of this world to make a profit, then you need to calm down, lie low, and cultivate diligently until you reach a certain level where no one can harm you or your family. Only then can you protect the people and things you want to protect.
Lin Yue nodded solemnly, her eyes filled with determination: "I understand. I will work hard to cultivate and become stronger so that I can protect everything I care about."
But, despite my lingering financial burden, I'm still under immense pressure. What can I do? The bank keeps pressing me for payment, I have three children to support in school, and Gong Yong's salary hasn't increased. I'm trying to find a part-time job to earn money, but my energy is truly limited.
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "If you continue like this, don't confine yourself to this state. If you continue like this, your Dao heart will become unstable."
Lin Yue looked worried and sighed helplessly: "But what can I do? The real problems are right in front of me, and I can't just ignore them."
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "Why don't you take a look around and see if there's anyone you can trust? You could sell one or two of your spatial techniques. One cubic meter is 10,000, so five cubic meters would be 50,000. Would that alleviate your financial pressure? Ideally, this person should be patriotic and wouldn't do anything illegal. You should think it through carefully."
Lin Yue fell into deep thought, muttering to herself, "Trustworthy and patriotic people are hard to find..."
Remnant Soul Snow Sun, I know who I can trust and who I can sell to. I'll try making one first. If I succeed, I'll call my good friend, demonstrate it to him, and then tell him how much it costs per piece, to see if he's willing to accept it, since he's financially well-off.
After Lin Yue finished speaking, she immediately began to try making it. She was completely focused and full of anticipation.
You should first take out one bead and place it in a glass bowl. Then, try writing down your Dharma teachings, spatial Dharma teachings, and blessings. Slowly infuse the written blessings into the bead. Because the bead's surface is smooth, use your Qi to lightly carve the Dharma teachings in the center of the bead. The first attempt failed, and the bead broke. You replaced it with another and continued trying. After ruining five beads, on the sixth bead, you finally succeeded in attaching the spatial Dharma teachings to it. This bead even developed a subtle pattern—a golden pattern that appeared inside the bead after its successful creation. This pattern was very regular, circling the bead.
The remnant soul Xueyang said, "Lin Yue succeeded this time. But how big is its space exactly? How big is it inside? It depends on who uses it later, and how strong is that person's soul?"
Lin Yue looked at the successful bead with joy in her eyes, and also with a hint of anticipation: "I hope it can solve the current problem smoothly."
Because all 108 beads were red, five were rejected in a row, but the sixth one was successful, with a hint of gold in the red. Lin Yue was overjoyed and picked up the phone to call her friend Xiao Hui.
After making the phone call, they arranged to meet Xiaohui at his home. Xiaohui said she would come to see him in three days, since she would be free at noon three days later to visit his house.
Lin Yue hung up the phone, feeling a little relieved, and began to look forward to meeting him three days later.
~~~~Cute dividing line~~~~~~
Brother Wang, I looked into Lin Yue's husband, Gong Yong. His salary is only one-third of what it used to be. They've probably cut back on shopping lately; buying food and drinks might be beyond their budget. There shouldn't be any major problems. How's your investigation going?
Brother Wang frowned and said, "I haven't found anything unusual on my end either, but we still can't let our guard down. We need to keep an eye on things."
Master, we've been keeping an eye on Lin Yue. Her family is having financial problems; they've reduced their food and drink expenses. Is that normal? Should we stop monitoring them?
The master pondered for a moment and said, "Don't relax yet, observe further. Perhaps this is just a superficial phenomenon, and there may be something we don't know about behind it."
Xiao Chen had been keeping an eye on Lin Yue's house for another month, and he was starting to get annoyed. So he went to see Brother Wang.
Xiao Chen said, "Brother Wang, let's have a meal together."
Brother Wang said, "Okay, where are we going?"
Xiao Chen said, "Let's go to that hot pot restaurant next to the park."
Brother Wang said, "Let's go eat."
"Xiao Chen, are you keeping an eye on those subordinates of yours every day? Are there any problems?"
"Xiao Chen, we absolutely cannot afford any problems. We're about to succeed, so let's not make a mistake in this small part."
Xiao Chen nodded, "Brother Wang, don't worry, I've explained everything clearly, there won't be any mistakes."
The two walked into the hot pot restaurant while talking.
Xiao Chen and Brother Wang entered a private room. After the waiter served all the dishes, Xiao Chen drank two glasses of wine and quietly asked Brother Wang, "Brother Wang, why is that formation set up over at the willow grove? What exactly is it for?"
Brother Wang quietly told Xiao Chen, "You know that willow stump, right? It was transported out of the deep mountains and forests. Do you know what happened before we got it out?"
When they went to cut down this tree, the people who went were whipped terribly, struck by willow branches. The tree was like a person, possessing a soul, as if it had come alive—a tree spirit. When we sawed its branches, blood flowed out, like human blood. You probably didn't know that, did you? Also, its branches seem to have healing properties and can ward off evil spirits.
Xiao Chen was dumbfounded. "Brother Wang, this is too unbelievable!"
Xiao Chen, you don't understand. My master said this willow tree has become a spirit. After we cut it down, it lost its spiritual power. Now, haven't many of the branches we cut off survived? Those branches seem to have special properties. My master wants it to grow more willow branches to ward off evil spirits and make some exorcising items.
Xiao Chen looked puzzled. "Brother Wang, is this really going to work? It seems unbelievable."
“You don’t believe it, and I don’t believe it either. Those who were whipped at the beginning were covered in wounds and bleeding. But after they came back, no medicine worked. Master crushed a willow leaf and applied its juice to the wounds, and they actually got better.”
Xiao Chen frowned and said, "It is indeed very magical, which is why Master values this willow tree so much."
Brother Wang said, "It's not that I value this willow tree, but its branches and leaves seem to have a special effect. They're taking it for testing, and I can't disclose the results yet. Then, it just so happens that the neighborhood next door needs feng shui advice, so the feng shui master put that willow tree in the arrangement, hoping it will recover quickly, that is, regain some vitality."
Xiao Chen nodded thoughtfully, "I see. I hope it will turn out well."
Brother Wang spoke to Xiao Chen in a half-serious, half-joking manner. Because he had drunk a little alcohol, he was a bit dizzy and didn't know how much he said, but Xiao Chen was still feeling dizzy listening to him.
Xiao Chen scratched his head, looking confused, and said, "Brother Wang, what you're saying is confusing me. Let's not talk about this anymore, let's eat."
