CH 209

Lin Wen had already returned to his house.

The scarecrows were piled up in the warehouse, and the door was locked by him.

Three days had passed, and the effect of the "Body of Destiny" disappeared in the moment the sun rose. Lin Wen had to obtain the power of destiny again to strengthen his divine abilities.

Lin Wen sat in his broken house and, after a whole day of meditation, obtained a white destiny star.

The white star had double the effect on any divine ability, and Lin Wen immediately sent it to Yosuga No Sora without hesitation.

Since his Daoist state was already at its highest level, all the strengthening effects were focused on reducing the karmic ties of good and evil. Lin Wen could now eliminate 7-8 points of evil karma every day.

Although other divine abilities were also important, especially "Half-Karmic Cultivation," Lin Wen's top priority now was to eliminate the evil karma completely.

Otherwise, he would always walk with a limp.

Moreover, he also needed to re-plan the ultimate reincarnation plan.

The post-disaster plan also needed to be reconsidered, at least to provide enough protection for Changshan County, so that it wouldn't explode as soon as he reincarnated there.

If the results of his efforts were destroyed like this, even if there were no traces of evil karma, it would still make his thoughts unclear.

However, the most important thing was the present situation.

At night, after a day of meditation, his primordial spirit had recovered to 31%.

Lin Wen once again lifted the sledgehammer and summoned the scarecrow to travel, bringing the minibus along to further conceal his actions.

The two spells, "Strength of Nine Bulls and Two Tigers" and "Paper Puppetry," only consumed 10% of his primordial spirit in total.

Lin Wen pushed the road forward for more than 1800 meters, triggering a geological disaster in the process. There was a cave more than 600 meters deep under the road, and the entire ground collapsed with one strike of the hammer.

When Lin Wen fell down, he thought he had found the legendary immortal's cave. However, after driving around with "Clear Sight Without Eyes" for a while, he found nothing and wasted an additional 5% of his primordial spirit.

Next, he worried. Filling up a cave that was more than 600 meters deep was not an easy task, even with his great strength.

Lin Wen scanned the spell list and found that only "Moving Mountains and Filling Seas" could easily solve this problem.

However, "Moving Mountains and Filling Seas" was a mid-level spell that required 12000% of his primordial spirit. Even if Lin Wen used good karma to cast the spell, he couldn't bear it.

Even if this spell could give him tens of thousands of good karma at once, it wouldn't work.

Because his spirit couldn't withstand such a high consumption spell, it would cause his primordial spirit to disintegrate.

The maximum limit he could bear was nine times the upper limit of his primordial spirit, which was around 1024%.

Generally, casting a spell that exceeded five times the upper limit of his primordial spirit would give him a headache. Every time he cast a spell beyond that, his spirit would experience tearing pain.

And this cave was so big and deep that even an ordinary mountain couldn't fill it. After thinking for a while, Lin Wen decided to build a bridge.

The cross-section of the cave was an irregular ellipse with an area of about 0.2 square kilometers. The road had to cross a height of about 300 meters in the air to reach the other side.

How should this bridge be built?

Lin Wen's thoughts turned, and he immediately came up with a solution.

He went to the warehouse in Huai Town and took several rolls of steel wire rope.

Each roll of steel wire rope weighed more than ten tons and was several kilometers long. Lin Wen directly threw the steel wire rope to the other side, inserted it into the ground, and then threw it back.

He repeated this process, quickly creating a 23-meter wide and 300-meter long road made of steel wire rope.

Of course, this was obviously not enough. Lin Wen went back to the construction site and removed the large bucket of the excavator.

Lin Wen manually dug soil with the large bucket and covered it on the road made of steel wire rope.

Lin Wen was afraid that it wouldn't be strong enough, so he created a second layer of steel wire rope road. Each steel wire rope was deeply buried in the embankment to prevent detachment or instability.

Lin Wen covered the two steel wire rope roads completely with soil, forming a rectangular structure, and then used his hands to compact the soil, shaping it into a road.

Then, he half-knelt down and pressed his five fingers to the ground.

"Transform Earth into Stone."

Invisible green light instantly disappeared into the ground. Guided by his spirit, it quickly rushed towards the other side.

Since the soil hadn't been forged by the sledgehammer, the green light was consumed quickly.

But the total amount of soil on the steel wire rope road was much lower than that of the embankment, so the green light easily reached the other side, rushing out for dozens of meters to ensure the absolute stability of the embankment.

Since there was still a lot of green light remaining, Lin Wen had it reinforce the embankment twice.

In this way, the steel wire rope, which was more than 10,000 meters long in total, was firmly sealed in rocks harder than granite.

To confirm the quality of the bridge, Lin Wen lifted the sledgehammer and walked step by step across the bridge.

During this process, the bridge made of steel and stone remained motionless. A 300-ton and 70-kilogram object walked on it without raising a speck of dust.

After crossing the bridge, Lin Wen was very satisfied. He finished repairing some scattered edges and continued to hammer the ground.

However, due to the long time spent on building the bridge, Lin Wen only advanced 1800 meters that day, while he had hammered nearly 3000 meters yesterday.

With only 1% of his primordial spirit left, Lin Wen had to go back and sleep. He didn't realize the shock that Yang Chief Engineer and the other engineering technicians would feel when they saw this endless hole and the stone bridge that seemed to span the sky.600 meters deep cave, for ordinary people, it is like a cliff abyss. Looking down, the dark hole seems to hide countless demons.

The 23-meter-wide stone bridge on it is like a thin rope, which is terrifying from a distance.

But walking on it makes people feel extremely relieved.

The road is 15 meters wide, leaving 7 meters for isolation and protection measures. It can even add a sidewalk and treat it as a tourist attraction, allowing visitors to appreciate this thrilling natural wonder.

As soon as Zhao Minggong saw the photo, he made this decision. The corresponding plan had already been submitted to Chief Engineer Yang in the afternoon.

How to build the sidewalk, how to ensure safety while allowing pedestrians to experience the shocking wonder to the greatest extent, as well as the atmosphere, promotion, and profit points of the attraction, everything was arranged clearly.

The names have already been decided, it will be called Changshan Great Pit.

But this name is too bad, so Lin Wen changed it to the Phantom Demonic Pit and proposed to build a platform called Jin Yin Tai at the edge of the pit.

Two steles will be erected on the platform, with the left one saying "Endless Abyss of Qingming" and the right one saying "Sun and Moon Shine on Jin Yin Tai".

Horizontal couplet: 50 yuan for one photo.

When this idea reached Zhao Minggong, he clapped his hands and laughed, praising Sheriff Lin as a genius who always comes up with incredible ideas.

He immediately added a series of scenic spots and tourist plans around it, advancing part of the Changshan County tourist attraction plan that was originally placed at the end.

When night fell again, Lin Wen was preparing to knock on the road when he received a call from Qin Luoshuang, asking him to hurry to the county government office.

When Lin Wen arrived at the county government office, not only Qin Luoshuang, but also Xia Xiaoxiang, Yang Shaohu, and Old Xie were there.

All four of them had gloomy expressions, especially Old Xie.

As soon as Lin Wen entered, Qin Luoshuang immediately told him some very bad news.

The gold cannot be sold.

"What?"

Lin Wen could hardly believe his ears. There is gold in this world that cannot be sold?

"It must be the Qin Clan's doing." Qin Luoshuang said, "They should have found out that we have the gold."

Yang Shaohu explained, "Longzhou has the largest gold mine in the empire and controls the empire's gold trading rights. Governor Gu Zhengyi, as the president of the Empire Gold Association, announced that the origin of the gold in Changshan County is unknown, prohibiting all businesses engaged in the gold industry from purchasing our gold, and demanding that we explain the origin of the gold."

Lin Wen frowned, "What about selling it privately?"

Qin Luoshuang said, "Our quantity is too large. We have refined a total of 3180.2 kilograms. Those who dare to take the risk are all pressing the price below 200 yuan per gram. Moreover, according to my investigation, these smugglers who dare to take it are all from the Qin Clan or the Council."

"Is there any solution?" Lin Wen asked.

Qin Luoshuang replied, "We can only sell it in very small amounts, but the return will be too slow."

"Even small amounts are not safe." Yang Shaohu added, "The empire has strict control over gold. Unless we go through official channels, there will inevitably be trouble."

"Sheriff Lin!" Old Xie cried out, almost about to cry, "Think of a solution quickly. I'm about to make next month's budget! This money is not enough!"

Xia Xiaoxiang looked at Old Xie disdainfully and said, "There is still some connection in my family, I can..."

Before she finished speaking, Qin Luoshuang stopped her with a stern look.

The office fell silent, and everyone looked at Lin Wen with expectant eyes.

But in fact, Lin Wen didn't have any solution. He only knew how to burn, kill, plunder, deceive, and steal.

Selling gold, a sales-related problem, never appeared in his mind.

However, although he didn't know, someone knew.

【Immortal's Guidance】

【For me, who is the best person to sell gold to?】

This is a very concise and direct question, and the consumption is indeed very low.

12%.

Lin Wen's just recovered divine sense was reset to zero.

【Ye Lingyue】

Lin Wen recalled for several seconds before remembering who this person was.

"Give me the phone."

Qin Luoshuang handed him the satellite phone.

Lin Wen took the phone and hesitated for a while before asking, "Do you know how to contact Ye Lingyue?"

As soon as Qin Luoshuang heard this name, her face turned dark, while Xia Xiaoxiang looked like she had discovered a new continent. She looked at Qin Luoshuang and then at Lin Wen with curiosity in her eyes.

Yang Shaohu was also slightly surprised. Ye Lingyue was the most famous socialite in the imperial capital, and almost all the upper-class people knew her.

Qin Luoshuang took out the business card that Ye Lingyue had given to Lin Wen before. "This is her personal number."

Lin Wen dialed the number, and after a while, the call was answered.

"Hello, who is it?"

Even though it was a satellite communication, the lazy and gentle voice with a strong scent of rouge and pollen could still be heard. The huge amount of female hormones seemed to be transmitted through the telecommunication signal, making Old Xie's face turn red.

"It's me, Lin Wen."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. When she spoke again, her voice had become indifferent, "Oh, is Xiao Xiao doing well with you? I miss him a little.""I need a favor from you."

"Why... again, sigh."

The voice on the other end of the phone became quiet, as if old wounds were being reopened, filled with melancholy.

"I have three tons of gold that I can't sell. Can you help me sell it?"

There was another long silence.

"What's in it for me, Little Lin?"

Lin Wen activated his Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart, and immediately, sweet nothings that even the strongest love saint in all the heavens couldn't think of poured in, with a very large scale, the kind that rolls directly onto the face.

About three sentences later, the attitude on the other end had already softened. After five sentences, the coldness had melted away. After ten sentences, the two were as close as glue. After twenty sentences, they began to race wildly, their speed soaring, quickly surpassing the speed of light and leaving the Milky Way.

Old Xie listened with his mouth agape, saliva flowing all over the table.

Yang Shaohu was a bit uncomfortable at first, but he quickly recovered, clapping his hands and thinking: "I get it! This is Sheriff Lin's trick of getting something for nothing! I need to learn this quickly."

He took out his notebook, listened attentively, and nodded from time to time.

"Oh, so that's what 'hitting two birds with one stone' means."

"So 'a warm welcome' can be interpreted this way."

"Wow, Sheriff Lin is a genius, beyond reach, unfathomable, I've learned a lot."

"Huh, what does 'time flies' mean?"

Qin Luoshuang tried to leave several times, but was held back by Xia Xiaoxiang.

"Qin, why are you leaving?"

"I can't stand it anymore."

"Isn't this the iron-hard man and unparalleled moral gentleman you boasted about? He doesn't seem any different from a regular pervert."

"No, no, there's a difference. He's a super pervert. Wow, I've never seen such a shameless person before. The perverts I've met before are like ants compared to him."

"Wow! Is 'leave no stone unturned' that exciting? This kid was definitely pretending that day, damn, hypocrite! Wasting my feelings, I should have known better and gone all the way, instead of playing the innocent game."

Qin Luoshuang was already getting up for the sixth time, each time more determined than the last, but Xia Xiaoxiang held her back.

"Don't go, don't go, don't you find this interesting?"

"Qin, can't you accept defeat? Didn't expect this kid to be this kind of person, right? You've already lost our bet!"

Qin Luoshuang's face was flushed, but she still gave her a cold glance.

"What do you want?"

Xia Xiaoxiang grinned, holding Qin Luoshuang's slender waist tightly, blocking her view, and began to get up to no good.

"Qin," she whispered in her ear, "I want to try 'seizing the opportunity'."

Bang.

In the midst of their faster-than-light journey, Lin Wen glanced over and saw a beautiful girl knocking another beautiful girl to the ground, then storming out the door.

After a while, a seductive hum came from the phone, followed by Ye Lingyue's charming voice: "Little Lin, I didn't expect you to have such an interesting side. I'll definitely come to Changshan County to play with you next time, remember to treat me well."

The Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart replied: "On the day of your visit, I will share everything I have, and repay you with a spring."

Ye Lingyue giggled: "I'm looking forward to it. Bye bye, Little Lin. Leave the gold to me, it's a small matter."

Imperial City.

In the extravagant red candle tent, Ye Lingyue stretched lazily, basking in happiness for a while. She picked up the phone and called Gu Zhengyi, the governor of Longzhou.

"Little Gu, I want to buy gold."
