I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"With no one to testify, what consequences could there be?" Ya Zi sneered, then suddenly waved his hand: "Kill!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the water demons drew their weapons and charged forward with chilling killing intent.

A chaotic battle erupted instantly. General Turtle's iron fist subdued the hundred soldiers, and with his own strength, he forced the demons to retreat one after another, making Ya Zi's face ashen.

"Clam Consort!"

Before long, seeing that the demons were about to be scattered, Ya Zi shouted softly.

Standing beside him, Consort Clam summoned a spirit sword with a flick of her wrist and charged into the battlefield like a ghost. Her sword flashed, aiming for General Turtle's face, and she finally managed to stabilize the situation.

However, that was all there was to it. General Turtle remained valiant, while Consort Clam, though initially energetic, gradually weakened and grew feeble.

Left with no other choice, Ya Zi transformed into a real dragon, baring its fangs and claws, and charged towards the turtle general's body.

General Turtle's expression hardened slightly, and he immediately fled into the sea.

The dragon brandished its claws, unleashing a surge of celestial energy that caused the desolate island to tremble and the ground to explode, forcing out the body of the Turtle General.

General Turtle was unwilling to fight Yazi to the death, so he retracted his head and limbs into his shell, enduring the bombardment of Yazi's magical energy, and rolled all the way into the sea.

The dragon roared and pursued relentlessly. A fierce battle broke out between the dragon and the turtle in the sea, with huge waves surging and turning into a rain of flying rain.

On the sea.

A fishing boat kept turning in the raging wind and waves, and seawater rushed into the cabin, frightening the father and his two sons so much that they were speechless with fear.

They couldn't understand where the raging winds and waves came from when the sky above was clear and blue.

Could it be, as Mo Niang said, that this is an internal power struggle within the Dragon Palace?

"Lord Wu, look! It's the Lu family father and son."

In mid-air, above the clouds, Lin Moniang suddenly caught a glimpse of the fishing boat out of the corner of her eye and instinctively grabbed Qin Yao's wrist.

"Didn't you cultivate the Immortal Technique of Astral Projection? Go and save them," Qin Yao encouraged.

"Ah, me?" Lin Moniang looked completely astonished.

"They've fallen into the water. If you don't act now, they'll drown," Qin Yao urged.

"I trouble you, my lord, to protect my body." Looking down at the three people struggling in the sea, Lin Moniang dared not hesitate any longer. She sat cross-legged and her primordial spirit left her body.

In the blink of an eye, her spirit flew to the sea surface, raised her hand and flung out a red ribbon, which swept across the sea like lightning, carrying the father and his two sons back to the cabin.

"Mo Niang, it's Mo Niang!"

Ignoring his back pain, Lu Zigui wiped his face and looked at the figure in the air with ecstatic joy.

"Uncle Lu, Brother Lu, Second Brother Lu, hold on tight, I'll take you back to shore!" Lin Moniang shouted, then wrapped the bow of the boat with a red silk ribbon and pulled the boat towards the shore.

In the vast ocean, the dragon turtles continued their fierce battle, growing even more ferocious. The ship, battered by the raging waves, rocked violently, seemingly on the verge of breaking apart.

Above the immortal clouds, Qin Yao released his domain, encroaching on ten miles. Then, he raised his hand and scooped up a giant Buddha's hand from the sky, which plunged into the sea and retrieved the turtle general who was fighting, bringing him back to his own domain.

Yazi, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the old tortoise, was stunned.

what's the situation?
Has the Buddha arrived?

But when he transformed into human form and looked up at the sky, he did not see a golden Buddha, not even a single hair!
"Second Prince, that Buddha's Hand..." Consort Bang rushed through the misty water and appeared beside him in a flash, her face filled with fear.

Ya Zi raised his hand and said, "This is hopeless. Let's return to the palace."

at the same time.

Above the clouds.

General Turtle stared at the man and woman in front of him, or rather, the handsome man, and forced a smile on his face, bowing deeply: "Thank you for saving my life, Immortal."

Qin Yao said, "Didn't you listen to the Conch Shell recording?"

"Seashell Recording?"

General Turtle's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Did you record the voice from that conch shell?"

"So you listened to it," Qin Yao said calmly. "You listened to the recording and still foolishly stepped into the encirclement. What's wrong with your brain?"

General Turtle blushed and said in a low voice, "I heard that the Second Prince is leading men to intercept and kill the Fourth Prince, and I got flustered because I was worried..."

"Let's not let this happen again," Qin Yao said.

General Turtle nodded and bowed: "Yes, yes, I will definitely take this as a warning."

After saying that, he was stunned.

Wait, why does it feel like they've become a superior-subordinate relationship?
Thinking of this, General Turtle pursed his lips and tentatively asked, "Immortal, may I ask a question?"

"Are you trying to ask about my purpose?" Qin Yao countered.

General Turtle nodded: "Yes, including the conch shell recording, including the one that saved my life."

"Have you ever heard the story of a rare commodity being hoarded?" Qin Yao asked.

General Turtle immediately understood: "You want to gain merit by following the dragon's lead!"

Qin Yao chuckled: "There's a slight difference... Ya Zi is irritable and easily angered, and has a vicious nature. If he becomes the ruler of the East Sea, how will the fishermen survive?"
On the contrary, Bi'an is much better in every way, therefore, I intend to ensure that he competes for the position of Dragon King of the East Sea.

General Turtle remained silent for a moment, then sighed softly, "Prince Bi'an doesn't have much ambition for power."

He has to fight for it.

Qin Yao's smile faded, and he said in a deep voice, "If he wins the struggle for the throne among the nine princes, he can at least save his own life and that of his brothers."

But if Ya Zi wins, his best outcome is reincarnation, and his worst outcome is annihilation.

As for the other dragon sons, the best outcome was nothing more than being raised in pens like pigs.

General Turtle: "..."

"Lord Wu, Lord Wu."

At this moment, Lin Moniang's spirit, who had brought the fishing boat ashore, flew over and hovered in mid-air, calling out continuously.

Qin Yao abruptly dispelled his domain and replied with a smile, "Here."

Lin Moniang's spirit quickly flew back to the clouds and landed in her body, then looked at the Turtle General with a curious gaze.

General Turtle breathed a sigh of relief and said knowingly, "I understand. I will tell the Fourth Prince everything that happened today and our conversation."

Qin Yao waved his hand: "Go..."

General Turtle asked, "How can we contact you? Or rather, where are you staying now?"

"I will appear at the crucial moment," Qin Yao said calmly.

General Turtle didn't ask any further questions, and immediately plunged down from the clouds, landing back in the sea...

half an hour.

After watching the show and saving the family of three, Lin Moniang bid farewell to Qin Yao and returned home, her face beaming with a bright smile.

She felt that nothing was more meaningful or joyful than helping people and saving lives, as if it were her destiny!

Not long after.

The Lu family of five arrived at the Lin family's house carrying large and small bags, immediately startling Lin Yuan, who was reading a book...

"Brother Lu, what's going on?"

"Brother Lin Yuan, where is Mo Niang?" Lu Zigui asked.

"I'm here." Lin Moniang put down her medical book and walked out of her room.

“Mo Niang, you saved my father and me, which means you saved the Lu family; these things are just a token of our gratitude, and we hope you won’t find them too much,” Lu Zigui said.

Lin Yuan was completely confused: "Brother, did Mother Mo save you and your two sons?"

Lu Zigui looked at Lin Moniang with gratitude and nodded heavily: "Today, the three of us, father and sons, disregarded Moniang's warning and set sail, only to encounter a terrible shipwreck."

Just as the three of us fell into the water, Mo Niang appeared in time and pulled us out of the sea. Mo Niang is truly a living goddess of Meizhou Island!

Lin Yuan: "..."

Mrs. Wang: "..." The eldest couple: "..."

Above the Lin family's house, at the edge of the white clouds.

The Barefoot Immortal looked down at Lin Moniang's smiling face, but his brows gradually furrowed.

As the saying goes, jade that is not carved cannot become a useful object. Throughout history, the vast majority of people who have achieved great things have forged their way out step by step through thorns and brambles, shedding countless drops of sweat and enduring countless hardships.

He had the same expectations for Lin Moniang, but now the situation was increasingly slipping out of his control.

To put it more bluntly, how could Lin Moniang be qualified for the position of Sea Goddess without going through countless trials and tribulations?
If I can't do it, then all the investments I made in the early stages will have gone down the drain.

Thinking of this, he felt it was necessary to go and have another talk with Magistrate Wu.

You can train other agents for your own amusement, fine, but don't interfere with the agents I've chosen.

Lean less.

Inside the government office.

As Qin Yao was selecting medical texts, he suddenly felt a premonition. He looked up and saw a white-robed immortal riding the wind and landing in front of the door.

"What's up?"

“You ignored what I said,” the Barefoot Immortal said earnestly as he slowly entered.

"Which sentence?" Qin Yao asked to confirm.

The Barefoot Immortal stood in the center of the main room, staring into the other person's eyes: "The way you're helping her will only make things worse."

Qin Yao asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold; without the tempering and forging of bitter cold, there is no way to speak of fragrance." The Barefoot Immortal said, "And your current behavior is tantamount to obliterating the future of plum blossoms."

Qin Yao smiled and shook his head: "Why does it have to be plum blossoms? Aren't peach blossoms good? Aren't tulips good? Aren't kapok flowers good?"

Barefoot Immortal: "..."

"Great Immortal, you are one of the most revered immortals in the world, why be so attached to appearances?"

Qin Yao said again: "Hardship can give rise to success, but not all success is accompanied by hardship."

"When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person, it first tests their will and strengthens their body..." I've heard these sayings before, and I understand them, but I truly oppose forcing someone to endure hardship without any real effort, all under the guise of "training the mind."

The Barefoot Immortal took a deep breath and said, "If this is your teaching philosophy, then please apply it to your students or your agents. Mo Niang is someone I've chosen; you don't need to worry about her!"

Qin Yao said, "So, you're treating it as a tool? And this tool has to be the shape you want it to be?"

Barefoot Immortal: "..."

He knew it was the other side's fault, but the problem was, he could never win an argument!
However, since reasoning with him was ineffective, he was no longer willing to try: "County Magistrate Wu, once is enough, twice is not enough. This is the second time I've come to you, and the second time I'm warning you. If you continue to pester Mo Niang, don't say I didn't warn you."

After saying that, he snorted coldly and turned away.

Qin Yao chuckled, then shook his head and complained, "That's not very tasteful."

In short dramas, when elders ask men to leave their daughters, they at least offer a check. But in his case, it's more like, "Don't say I didn't warn you."

But actually, he wasn't that afraid.

He is not Huang Mao, nor is the Barefoot Immortal Lin Moniang's father. If the other party insists on being his enemy, he will show them what true troublesomeness is!

"Dad, let me massage your shoulders."

About two weeks later, when Lin Yuan returned from fishing with his eldest son and patted his shoulder, Lin Moniang suddenly said something.

Lin Yuan sat down in the chair and smiled, "Okay, good girl."

Lin Moniang, with a smile on her face, massaged his shoulders and back. As she massaged, she suddenly said, "Dad, can you lend me some money?"

"Wait a minute," Lin Yuan suddenly said.

Lin Moniang was taken aback.

What are you waiting for?
While she was still in a daze, Lin Yuan suddenly stood up: "My shoulders don't seem to be sore anymore, let's leave it like this."

Lin Moniang was both amused and exasperated: "Father, I need to borrow money."

"Nonsense, who doesn't need to borrow money?" Lin Yuan said with a laugh.

Lin Moniang said, "I have a great need for it! Twenty taels will do."

"Why don't you search our house? If you can find twenty taels, I'll lend it to you," Lin Yuan said.

"Ten taels, you must have at least ten taels, right?"

"What do you need the money for?" At this moment, Madam Wang came over after hearing the inquiry and asked curiously.

"I want to buy medicinal herbs," Lin Moniang said. "To be precise, I want to become a doctor!"

"Then I definitely can't lend it to you."

Lin Yuan said, "Can a doctor be just anyone? What if you're not skilled enough in medicine, take the wrong pulse, prescribe the wrong medicine, and someone dies? First of all, let's not talk about the consequences our family will have to bear, can you live with yourself?"

Lin Moniang said sincerely, "I promise I will not prescribe medicine indiscriminately. I will be extremely cautious when it comes to treating and saving lives!"

“I said no, and that’s final. Mo Niang, don’t have so many strange ideas. Why don’t you just learn needlework and become a virtuous woman?” Lin Yuan said.

Lin Moniang shook her head: "Father, I beg you, can you just consider it my dowry?"

"No," Lin Yuan insisted. "Even if you say it three hundred or five hundred times, it won't work."

"If you won't lend it to me, I'll borrow it from someone else." When it comes to being stubborn, Lin Moniang is no less stubborn than her father. She muttered something and ran away.

Lin Yuan shouted, "Stop right there!"

"I'm not going to stop," Lin Moniang replied, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Lin Yuan sighed helplessly, "This child is getting more and more disobedient as he gets older."

The eldest brother, Lin Hongyi, walked in and said with a smile, "These past few years, everyone has been struggling to make ends meet. I don't think anyone could lend him ten or twenty taels of silver, right?"

“There is someone who can,” Wang suddenly said.

Lin Yuan: "..."

Lin Hongyi: "..."

At that moment, the father and son were thinking the same thing.

evening.

The Lin family courtyard.

Seeing Lin Moniang return carrying a bamboo basket as tall as her upper body, the eldest sister-in-law asked in surprise, "Is this full of medicinal herbs?"

"Yes," Lin Moniang said with a smile, "There's white medicine, white peony, angelica, ginkgo..."

Sister-in-law: "..."

"Little sister, how much money did Lord Wu lend you?" Lin Hongyi suddenly came to his wife's side, interrupting Lin Moniang's response.

Lin Moniang said, "They gave me one hundred taels of silver, but I haven't spent it all."

The eldest couple both gasped in surprise.

One hundred taels...

They've never seen so much money before!

"How much?" At this moment, Lin Yuan suddenly strode out of the kitchen and asked with wide eyes.

"One hundred taels," Lin Moniang said with a smile. "Father, are you a little hard of hearing?"

Lin Yuan: "..."

He felt that he wasn't just hard of hearing, but that he was about to have a heart attack.

Lord Wu is really daring to give, and this girl is really daring to ask for it!
This is terrible! (End of Chapter)
