CH 77

Although his appearance does not match the image of the legendary three-headed and six-armed, green-faced and fanged, with a sable around his waist, his appearance is no different from that of a normal person.

But appearances can be deceiving, and based on his actions, it is reasonable to have such a terrifying illusion.

From the current perspective, the rumors of him being a serial killer are definitely true.

Yun Qingshui's heart turned cold, but Old Xie beside her seemed indifferent. His face quickly changed, and a flattering smile emerged from every muscle on his face, quickly covering up all his facial expressions.

In the blink of an eye, he seemed like a completely different person.

He bent over and ran up, shouting eagerly, "Sheriff Lin—" as if a widow who had been alone for a hundred years had encountered a strong man.

Yun Qingshui felt a chill down her neck and a sense of nausea surged from the bottom of her heart. She turned her head and saw that the people around her had a similar reaction, except Sheriff Lin remained expressionless.

Of course, Yun Qingshui did not know that Lin Wen almost vomited in that instant.

This Old Xie was becoming more and more disgusting, almost surpassing the limits of a human being. However, his aura was always a mixture of yellow, green, and brown, unusually active, like a boiling vomit.

But there was no black aura.

So Lin Wen had to endure him.

He immediately activated his Seven Aperture Linglong Heart to counteract the chill, and at the same time, raised his hand to stop Old Xie from speaking further.

After deactivating the Seven Aperture Linglong Heart to save time, he said, "Speak directly, I'm busy."

Old Xie immediately bowed and said, "Sheriff Lin, you have a lot of responsibilities, but everything is fine in Changshan County."

The situation suddenly changed, becoming shrewd and capable.

"The Qingcheng Democratic Party unexpectedly ran out of supplies today. I tried to contact them in various ways but couldn't reach them. I had no choice but to contact suppliers from outside the area, but the quality is low."

"When I returned to the town, I coincidentally encountered a group from the Democratic Party. They were injured and claimed to have clashed with the Qingcheng authorities, forcing them to flee here. I brought their female leader, Yun Qingshui, here. How should we handle this? Please advise, Sheriff Lin."

"Good." Lin Wen nodded, "You may go now. Also, remember to scrutinize not only the relief supplies but also the construction materials, and don't let those unscrupulous merchants mix in inferior goods."

Old Xie was overjoyed and quickly bowed, saying, "Yes, Sheriff Lin! I won't let you down!" Based on his years of experience in the officialdom, the more responsibilities he had, the more he was valued by his superiors, and his promotion was almost certain.

Old Xie, overwhelmed with joy, almost ran out to show that he took his superior's tasks to heart, completely forgetting about Yun Qingshui.

After a while, Lin Wen finally finished inspecting the public security and immediately deactivated his Divination and Observation Technique, feeling like his eyes were going blind.

He thought to himself, "This won't do. These are just some flies. After so long, I only have 8 points of good karma, while I have only 1-2 points of pure black evil karma. It's pitifully low and a waste of two spells. If I am tied down by these things, I won't be able to accomplish anything."

The most crucial problem was that as long as there were breeding grounds for corruption and evil, flies would continue to emerge endlessly, causing annoyance and reducing his good karma. It was a losing business.

Not sweeping them away was also not an option. Besides lowering the good karma he gained from governing Changshan County, it would also bring him evil karma.

Originally, Lin Wen had been doing well on the construction site, recovering 10%-12% of his primordial spirit every day without using spells, and gaining more than ten points of good karma. In the long run, he had earned a fortune.

He had been living a happy life.

He even had a feeling that he could continue like this until the Earth exploded and the universe restarted without any problems.

However, on this day, at noon, his happiness was interrupted.

First, the lunch that used to consist of high-quality fresh vegetables turned into dry bread and coarse grains, with a significant decrease in immortal energy, which made Lin Wen unhappy.

Then, his evil karma, which had been restless for a long time, finally jumped from 0 to 1.

Although it was said that corruption did not happen overnight, today it suddenly happened, causing him to lose 100 points of good karma directly.

100 points of good karma!

Looking at that 1 point of pure black evil karma, Lin Wen felt a deep pain in his heart, making it hard to breathe.

If another point were to appear, Lin Wen felt that his state of mind would explode.

No!

He absolutely could not let it accumulate any further!

Lin Wen made up his mind.

He must eliminate the hidden dangers.

Although currently, its accumulation speed was far lower than one percent of good karma, what if one day it exploded?

For example, if someone he promoted or someone who gained power because of him suddenly fell into the abyss of evil and committed irreparable heinous acts, it could instantly cause his evil karma to skyrocket!

Even if it was just one point, it would be enough to make Lin Wen cough up three liters of blood.

If it reached 10 points, Lin Wen's previous efforts would be in vain.

If it reached 100 points, his future would be ruined, and he could only choose to become a villainous overlord, working hard to fatten himself up and become a huge experience treasure for the next destined one.

If that was his fate, Lin Wen would rather self-destruct in place than give others a chance.

Otherwise, what was the point of his hard work?

Therefore, in order to prevent his evil karma from accumulating, Lin Wen urgently interrupted his happy life on the construction site and returned to Huai Town to find the cause.

Based on his research during this period, Lin Wen knew that as the sheriff of Changshan County, he bore the greatest karma of the county. In essence, all the good and evil things in the county were related to him, only differing in the degree of connection.

However, due to his short time in office, some historical problems were temporarily not attributed to him. But as time went on, there would come a day when everything in the county would be directly linked to him.

So, before that day arrived, either he had already reincarnated, or he had made full preparations.

And now, this overwhelming last bit of evil karma was definitely caused by certain actions directly related to him.

"Then let's clean up the environment in advance." Lin Wen thought to himself, "This is also a good thing."

Sure enough, as soon as he returned to Huai Town, even before reaching the county government office, he saw several public security officers beating up a vendor who had set up a stall.

The vendor was beaten to the point of crying while holding his head, repeatedly shouting, "Stop, stop! I won't set up the stall anymore!"

The tall and strong public security officers continued to assault the vendor, chasing after him and kicking him. The delicate handmade products on the ground were crushed and trampled by the feet and rolling bodies, leaving only broken pieces and wood scraps scattered around.

Lin Wen was burning with anger. He immediately remembered that the head and deputy head of the public security department had already been taken down in a rebellion. He had temporarily put that senior public security officer, Ma something, in charge of managing the public security department.

At that time, he chose Ma something because there was not much black aura around him, and he could barely be used.

However, people change. Divination and Observation Technique was not a perfect prediction, and it couldn't see a person's entire life at a glance.

Except for those who were completely black, a person's aura could change. They could either wholeheartedly turn over a new leaf or become more corrupt and turn into a demon. Both were possible.

Now it seemed that Ma something was either a useless person or had already become a corrupt official and tyrant. His indulgence towards his subordinates was the main cause of his increase in evil karma.

Lin Wen was furious and ready to go on a killing spree.

But unfortunately, No Colorful Phoenix in Body reminded him with an ominous feeling that this was an evil act.

Lin Wen used Divination and Observation Technique and found that none of the public security officers had completely black auras.

Obviously, this was the disgusting part of the flies.

Lin Wen could only step forward and knock them down, then notify the Supervision Office to arrest them, and call the Civil Affairs Office to comfort the vendor and negotiate compensation.

Then, he planned to gather all the public security officers in Huai Town, just like when he dealt with the disaster victims, and thoroughly clean up the town.
