After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 244 The undercover agent hiding under the nose
After waking up the next day, the first thing Lin Xi did was to take out the crutch she had thrown into her pocket.

Cover one of the relics with your hand.

Under her spiritual perception, this relic was no longer a physical object, but a solid mass of spiritual power.

It's like a ball of thread twisted by spiritual filaments.

Her mental power transformed into a hand with a mouth in the hand.

Every time this hand untied a little filament of mental power, the mouth in the palm swallowed it.

As a result, her mental power continued to grow.

After devouring the relic, she called up the system panel and looked at her mental power column.

Her mental strength increased to 23 points!
It increased by a full 2 ​​points!
But then she had another question, didn't it mean that the spiritual power contained in the relic was stronger than hers?
Why did it only increase by 2 points after she swallowed one of them?

Lin Xi never stayed overnight when she had questions. She immediately sank into the system space and asked the teacher who taught the mental power course.

The teacher answered her: "Because you can't completely absorb the spiritual power swallowed from the outside. It would be good if you can absorb one-tenth.

"Just like when you eat, can you absorb all the nutrients in the food you eat? Absolutely not, some nutrients will always be lost.

"The same goes for mental power."

Lin Xi understood.

Exiting the space, she swallowed another relic.

As a result, her mental strength suddenly increased to 25 points!
Much faster than the way she gained attribute points and added points through exams.

But the spiritual power she swallowed was from outside, and she had to refine it, so it was not very smooth to use.

But in the future, she can find some treasures containing spiritual power and put them in the space. If the spiritual power is exhausted, she can swallow them and use them to restore blood.

In this way, there will be no situation like the last time when the contract with the fish monster almost failed.

"This class is a Chinese class, the content is Chinese Pinyin, come on, read after me——

"a/o/e/u/ū"

“1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9，这些是阿拉伯数字，是由一个叫古印度的国家发明的，后来由阿拉伯人传播开来……”

"This class is a mahjong class. I will tell you the rules first, and then you can play in groups. After playing a few times, you will know these rules well."

"The skating rink has been built? I'll go take a look."

"Plow this land, plant grass seeds, and trim it neatly. When the time comes, it will be paved into a Chuiwan (ancient version of golf) course."

"The road here will be rebuilt and paved with cement to make it easier for carriages to park."

……

The days passed day by day in teaching and rectification.

On this day, a carpentry shop owned by the Qianhai Gang made a batch of skates and sent them over.

Lin Xi took the girls to try it out in the hall.

"Ah ah ah, hold on to me quickly. I'm going to hit a pillar!"

"Master, how should I stop!"

"Oh, it hurts!"

The hall was packed with people, but the atmosphere was joyful.

Everyone was laughing and shouting. Even if it hurt after falling, they didn't take it seriously and got up and continued practicing.

Only Lin Xi, walking nimbly in the hall on seven or eight centimeter-high roller skates.

There was even a dance.

It looks like a free and agile bird.

His skillful and leisurely posture made everyone envious, and they became more determined to learn to skate.

Pan Yanjun walked in with a serious look on her face, "Pavilion Master, I have something to report." Lin Xi didn't take off her skates, and slipped in front of her smoothly on her shoes, "What's the matter?"

Pan Yanjun knelt down to avoid looking down at the pavilion master.

"The Jinyu Pavilion opened in the city. It is a business model that combines a casino and a brothel. Many of the layouts and furnishings are copied from our Jinlin Pavilion. They clearly want to take advantage of our closure to take away our business.

"Pavilion Master, what should we do? When we finish rectifying the situation, Jinyu Pavilion will probably snatch away all our guests, and then——"

Lin Xi placed a hand on her head and stroked it gently.

"Yanjun, don't worry, have you forgotten? We are no longer in the business of casinos and brothels. The target group is completely different from the original. Even if a Jinyu Pavilion pops up, it will not affect our business."

Under her comfort, Pan Yanjun calmed down.

"What the Pavilion Master said was that I was mistaken."

However, within a few days, Pan Yanjun received the news: "A gambling tool called 'Mahjong' has been added to Jinyu Pavilion! Pavilion Master, isn't mahjong unique to us? How did Jinyu Pavilion know about it?"

Lin Xi also wants to know.

So far, only the Lin family, the Lin family and the Jinlin Pavilion know about Mahjong, but the Lin family will not leak the news. The people in the Jinlin Pavilion have been hypnotized by her mental power, and it is impossible to spread the word about Mahjong behind her back.

So it was leaked from the Lin family?
She immediately wrote a letter to question Lin Wushang.

Lin Wushang did not deny it immediately, but said that he would investigate the matter.

It didn't take long for him to write back to her: "According to my investigation, the mahjong was leaked from Jinlin Pavilion, and Jinyu Pavilion has an undercover agent hiding in Jinlin Pavilion."

Undercover?

Lin Xi's first reaction was that it was impossible.

Even if Jinyu Pavilion sent an undercover agent, the undercover agent was hypnotized by her and would not be able to pass news to Jinyu Pavilion.

However, when she was patrolling Wanshengtang that day, she noticed a strange face.

They are not completely strangers, in fact, they have met before.

It was the charlatan who caused trouble in Wanshengtang before Jinlin Pavilion was closed for rectification.

And she didn't hypnotize him.

"Why is he still here?"

She thought this person had been thrown out long ago.

Pan Yanjun looked in the direction of her finger, "Oh, didn't he make trouble in Wanshengtang before? After the Five Guardians subdued him, I had him put into the woodshed and starved him for a few meals before releasing him. , let him stay as a coolie to pay off his debts."

Lin Xi understood.

This person is the undercover agent sent by Jinyu Pavilion!

When she hypnotized the person from Jinlin Pavilion before, he was locked in a woodshed and starved, so he slipped through the net.

When he was released later, Pan Yanjun didn't tell her, probably because he felt there was no need to talk about such a trivial matter in front of her.

So much so that she didn't even notice that there was an outsider in the Golden Scale Pavilion.

And this outsider has been under her nose these days, watching all the changes in Jinlin Pavilion.

This is how Mahjong got leaked.

It's really secret.

"He is the undercover agent sent by Jinyu Pavilion, bring him here."

Pan Yanjun's expression changed, "It's actually him!"

The man was brought to Lin Xi. Lin Xi did not give him a chance to quibble, and directly released his mental power to hypnotize him and interrogate him.

This man's name is Li Dai, who was sent by Zhang Guan, the manager of Jinyu Pavilion. He has been lurking in Jinlin Pavilion these days, secretly delivering news to Zhang Guan.

Pan Yanjun's face turned pale, and she knelt down to plead guilty: "Pavilion Master, I was negligent, please punish me!"
