I borrowed my brain from the Emperor

"Xiao Lin!"

The old woman was surprised and delighted when she heard the voice. She quickly stepped forward and grabbed her son's hand, unable to speak with excitement. The scene she had encountered in her dream disappeared in an instant.

Her son is still alive!

"Pretend to be a ghost and die!"

Evil comes from courage.

Seeing that Shen Lin's attention was not on him, Ma Liu picked up the pole in his hand and used all his strength to hit Shen Lin's head again. He had hit this place once before, so he had experience.

But this time, Shen Lin seemed to have sensed something in advance. He pushed the old woman in front of him away, stretched out his right hand, and grabbed the carrying pole that was coming towards him.

"It's you! You killed me before!"

His five fingers grasped the carrying pole tightly like an iron hoop, fragments of memory emerged from his broken brain, and his eyes suddenly turned blood red.

He remembered the cause of his death.

So he roared, clenched his left fist, and punched the pole. With a crisp sound of "crack", the solid old pole was split into two halves by Shen Lin's punch, and then he took a quick step, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and punched Ma Liu on the bridge of his nose.

With a scream, blood spurted out of Ma Liu's face and several of his front teeth flew out.

The spirit fish basket that he had been holding in his hand also rolled out.

Shen Lin, who succeeded in one punch, flew up and kicked Ma Liu in the chest, knocking him to the ground, and stepped on him at the same time. Shen Lin, who was reborn, was extremely strong. How could Ma Liu, an ordinary person, withstand such a step? With one kick, the sound of bones breaking was heard immediately.

A large mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of Ma Liu's mouth.

Shen Lin, who was blood-thirsty, rode on Ma Liu and started punching him with his fists.

One punch.

Two punches.

Three punches
"Xiao Lin, son"

The old woman picked up the oil lamp from the ground in panic, and then she saw her son riding on Ma Liu, punching him left and right, and his fists made Ma Liu's flesh and blood a mess. His struggles became weaker and weaker, and he was about to die.

Shen Lin came to his senses when he heard the old woman's cry.

He remembered the old woman's identity.

He also remembered the things he had been thinking about before he died. So he immediately dropped the Ma Liu in his hand and quickly went over to help the old woman up.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"As long as it's alright, it'll be alright, as long as it's alright"

The old woman also heard what Shen Lin had shouted before. When she thought of the scene she had seen in her dream, she couldn't help but shed tears.

That dream was real.

His son was dead, killed by Ma Liu. The one coming to see her was most likely her son's ghost. Thinking of the rumors about Master Yinshen, she was even more terrified. Her son must have violated Master Yinshen's rules by coming back to see her today.

Will be punished!
"Mom, please rest nearby. I will carry you back after I finish packing Ma Liu." Shen Lin did not know what his mother was thinking. He just thought she was still worried about him, so he subconsciously spoke to comfort her. However, the old woman was even more sad after hearing these words, and her tears could not stop flowing.

"It's all my fault. I'm the one who's dragging you down."

The old woman cried more and more sadly.

Shen Lin was worried seeing this, so he could only bury Ma Liu hastily, and then carried his mother back to the small fishing village.

The mother and son depend on each other for survival. Even if they forget their memories, this family bond cannot be severed. In order to take care of his seriously ill mother, Shen Lin worked hard from dawn to dusk, and he didn't know how much hardship he had endured. After finally meeting Lingyu, he was plotted against by someone like Ma Liu. If he hadn't met Chen Luo, he didn't know how his mother would live.

Things are not over now. If Hua Gouzi leaves, there will definitely be trouble tomorrow.

Shen Lin carried his mother on his back and followed his memory back to his home. After saving his mother, he had recovered a lot of memories.

He put his sleeping mother to bed and covered her with a quilt before getting up and leaving.

I killed Ma Liu before, but I haven't picked up the spirit fish yet. I hope I can still make it back in time. I also need to deal with the hidden danger of Hua Gou Zi! It's best to bury him together.

Silent all night.

Chen Luo stood on the clouds, looking down at the people below. He stretched out his hand, and a ball of grayish-white aura appeared in his hand. This aura spread from above like a spider web, affecting the heads of all the residents of the small fishing village.

The one belonging to Hua Gouzi suddenly trembled, and a thought flowed down the silk thread, and the corresponding thought rose in Hua Gouzi's mind.

"I can't wait to die! I have to act first, otherwise when Shen Lin reacts, I will be the one to die."

Hua Gouzi didn't know how he suddenly became so smart, but he felt that this idea was right. So he no longer cared about his fear, and even without wearing clothes, he fled the village at night and ran towards the county government office.

He is going to report to the police!
'God? Wisdom?'

Chen Luo withdrew his hand and looked at the figure below that looked like a chess piece. He had a clearer understanding of the characteristics of the second step of spirit refining.

When Shen Lin rushed to Hua Gouzi's house, the other party had already disappeared.

Worried about his mother, he did not dare to stay any longer and could only return home as soon as possible. He planned to take his mother out of the village at dawn tomorrow and avoid the storm before coming back.

“Xiao Lin!!”

The old woman woke up suddenly from her sleep, and she dreamed of her dead son again.

The son in the dream still had blood all over his face, but this time he didn't say anything. He just bowed to her with a smile, and then left. Old Mrs. Lin stretched out her hand to keep her son, but she couldn't do it.

"Mom, I'm here!" Shen Lin ran in immediately after hearing the voice.

The old woman was relieved only after she saw her son. She looked around and confirmed that there were no pursuers from the Yinshen Master before she asked cautiously.

"Master Yinshen let you go?"

Hearing this question, Shen Lin immediately understood what his mother was worried about. He couldn't help but feel a little moved. He subconsciously held the old woman's withered hands, gently patted the back of her hands and said.

"My son is unfilial and makes his mother worried."

"It's okay."

The old woman wanted to get up, but was pushed back by Shen Lin. After coming back to life, Shen Lin forgot a lot of things, and his mind became different from before. He thought about the immortal he met yesterday and wondered why he saved him.

He was just a mortal, and there was nothing on him that was worth the other party's plot. However, the things that the immortals considered were definitely different from those of mortals like him. He should first try to persuade his mother to leave the village. With his current brain, as long as he left the small fishing village, he could settle down anywhere.

Bang!
There was a loud bang.

Before Shen Lin could finish his words, the wooden door was kicked open from outside. A group of yamen runners rushed in from outside, and Hua Gouzi in the middle pointed at the mother and son in the house and shouted loudly.

"It was he who killed Ma Liu. I saw it with my own eyes!"

Seeing this scene, Shen Lin's heart skipped a beat and he felt something was wrong.

He didn't expect Hua Gouzi to be so fast.

The leading bailiff waved his hand and called his men to speak to the mother and child in the house.

"locked!"

"My Lords, is there any misunderstanding?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back to the county government office."

Shen Lin immediately became anxious. It was fine for him to be young and strong, but how could his mother, who was so old, withstand such a torture? He subconsciously wanted to block the yamen runner who rushed towards his mother, but before he could move, the head constable who noticed the movement suddenly dodged and kicked him in the stomach. The kick, mixed with martial arts, made him roll out, and his back hit the wall, and he could never get up again.

Amid the chaos, he heard his mother crying.

I raised my hand feebly, and my vision went dark.
"mother!"

Shen Lin woke up suddenly.

Looking around, he found himself locked up in the county jail, with his hands and feet shackled. The cell next to him was filled with dry grass, and a rotten smell filled the cell.

"Your sentence has come down. You will be executed in the autumn."

Hearing his movement, the bailiff outside stood up and threw in the document of judgment, with his signature and fingerprints on it.

Finished the review?
when?
It's a spirit fish!!

Shen Lin's mind raced, and he instantly understood the whole thing.

Hua Gou Zi and Ma Liu could kill people under the influence of the spirit fish, and these officials could sentence them to death for the spirit fish. A pair of unrelated fishermen who could not read or write, so they died. There would be no hidden dangers in killing such people, and their names would not even appear in the files.

"Where's my mother?"

"The murderer is guilty of the same crime. The old lady is already dead."

The bailiff glanced at them coldly. He had seen this kind of thing many times. There were so many souls who died unjustly in prison that they could fill up the mass graves in Xishan. It was ridiculous that the old lady still hoped that the master would redress the injustice for her and her son, but she didn't know that the people who wronged them knew better than anyone that they were wronged.

died?

Shen Lin was at a loss for a moment, as if something in his mind had shattered.

"So fast?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Luo's eyes in mid-air, and his figure flashed, and he suddenly fell from the clouds.

A flash of light passed by, and a figure passed through the iron bars of the cell and walked in.

Shen Lin saw the "immortal" who had pulled him out of the water again. He walked in from the window like a shadow, with dots of light gathering under his feet, surrounding him like clouds. This time was more direct than the last time, and Shen Lin was sure that he had met an immortal.

"Please, Immortal, save my mother."

Shen Lin kowtowed and begged for help.

crazy?

The yamen runner outside frowned, looked at Shen Lin who suddenly went crazy in the room, said "bad luck" and turned away. In the eyes of the yamen runner, there was no immortal at all, only Shen Lin was alone in the cell, kowtowing to the wall.

"Don't you understand yet?"

Chen Luo looked at the young man in front of him, and the thoughts in his mind emerged again.

The second step of refining the spirit.

Immortals and mortals are separated.

From this step on, the "human" characteristics in him slowly dissipated and transformed into the "immortal" characteristics.

There is an immortal living in the clouds, playing chess and watching all living beings.
