I Can Absorb Spiritual Contamination

　　 "...The light teaches us, the light guides us, and those who are far from the light will be guilty."

　　 "The unbelievers are not clothed, and those who reject are not enough to eat."

　　 "Only my lord, let the calamity be eliminated, let the fear stay away, and everything else will suffer."

　　 "We are free from darkness, we embrace light..."

　　 In a room with four or five rows of benches neatly arranged, it looked a little cramped, and a group of people stood in the middle, holding the closing stage of the prayer, chanting the "Lord's Prayer".

　　 There are men and women of all ages, about a dozen people, each of them clenched their fists in front of their chests, closed their eyes, and muttered words.

　　 The head of the group is a middle-aged man.

　　 He wears glasses and looks in his forties. He wears a dark suit that is washed to a little white but is very neat and clean. He has just closed a thick book in his hand and looks like a teacher.

　　 After all the people prayed, the middle-aged man looked around, his eyes stopped for a while on the eight-year-old boy brought by one of the women, and then he said: "Praise the light. Next, I will give out lunch."

　　 "There is only light."

　　 The believers said one sentence in unison, and this time their voices were obviously much neater and louder.

　　 Two female believers walked into the kitchen not far away with joy, and brought out the lunch that had been prepared.

　　 There are a pot full of white rice, two plates of fried green vegetables, a pot of boiled radishes, and a pot of braised potatoes, all of which have just removed the lid and steamed, and the portion is full.

　　 Finally, a pot of braised fish was brought up.

　　 It is huge in size, obviously more than ten catties, the surface is fried to brown, the meat is covered with soy sauce, the seasoning is obviously delicious, and the tangy aroma is smelt from far away.

　　 Several believers swallowed their saliva, and their eyes revealed joy.

　　 The boy shook the woman’s arm that was serving the meal: "Mom, Mom! This fish is so big! Was it caught in the river in the north?"

　　 The woman's face changed slightly, she hurriedly pressed the boy's head hard, and leaned to her ear to blame:

　　 "Guangming educates us not to speak loudly while eating! Huh, this is the fish in the Yuanyang River. Last week was the opening period. The Ministry of Urban Defense organized many people to go out of the city to fish. The harvest was good."

　　 She paused, and then added: "This is the gift of light to us."

　　 Yuanyang River runs through the boundaries of Yuanzhou and Luozhou from west to east, and is a relatively important source of food for Anding City, which is not strong in Yuanzhou.

　　 "Oh, praise the light!"

　　 The boy hurriedly clicked on his head and learned something decently, watching his mother help him pick up a piece of fish the size of his fist, greedily smelling the aroma, and then said:

　　 "But it doesn't look bright at all, it's so dark, it's like a sky where you can't see the stars at night, look at it, and its eyes look like demons on a book."

　　咣!

　　...The actions of the people around who were serving food and cooking suddenly stopped. After a few people looked panicked, they tremblingly knocked over the tableware, and some stared at the boy in annoyance.

　　 The boy was obviously frightened by the reaction of the people around him. He stayed on the spot for a while. His eyes quickly turned red and his mouth opened slightly, as if he was about to cry.

"Snapped!"

　　 "Don't cry!"

　　 The woman yelled and slammed her child's mouth, her fingers obviously left a mark on the boy's white face.

　　 She immediately lowered her head and pleaded humbly and cowardly to the middle-aged man who stood in the first place:

　　 "Elder Luo, this is the first time he has come. I blame me for not teaching him well. He didn't mean to offend the light. Please... please forgive me."

　　 "Hehe, what a pure and innocent child, he is like a piece of amber."

　　Elder Luo walked up to the boy, patted his head with his hand, and kept a smile: "The light protects us, everything is shining under the light, even if they turned their backs on the light, but the light never gave up on them."

　　 But you just said that people who are far from the light are guilty...

　　 The boy stopped crying and looked at him blankly, but his mother was covering his mouth and could not speak.

When Elder Luo saw his eyes twinkling, he pointed to the fish in the basin and said, "Although they have been infested by darkness, they have been baptized by light, so they can be eaten."

　　 As he said, he picked up a piece of tender meat under the gills and put it in his mouth. After chewing a few times, his face suddenly changed, but he swallowed in front of everyone, and at the same time he closed his eyes and prayed.

　　 "May the light protect you."

　　 The believers held their breath one after another, their glasses staring at the elder, seeming to be afraid, or expecting something.

　　 After a while, Elder Luo opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, uncontaminated, and mutated.

　　 "Continue to eat." Elder Luo wiped his mouth.

　　 Seeing this, the rest of the believers also quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "Praise the light."

　　 As soon as the words here, the boy who was still crying just bitten off the nearest piece of fish, and took a few bites secretly after a while with a bitter face.

　　 It's so salty! Also with a strong smell!

　　 The boy peeped at the surrounding circle with a slightly confused look, and found that everyone was frowning. After thinking about it, he still endured the unpleasant taste stimulation and ate it.

　　 Although it is a bit salty, I have to say that the meat is very tender and chewy.

　　 After all, it is difficult for ordinary families to have meat all at once, and eating meat every other day is considered good.

　　 And for a poor family like him, it took several days for this fish to have the opportunity to eat the last "meat dish", and he was not willing to waste it.

Taking advantage of everyone’s meal time, Elder Luo walked to a female believer who was in charge of cooking today. He wiped his glasses and muttered: “Next time you cook, you can put less salt. If you’re not good at it, change it. Others come."

　　 The fat woman wanted to argue aggrievedly, but he waved his hand, finished the meal quickly, and wiped his palms clean.

　　 Waiting for everyone to finish eating, Elder Luo took the heavy black book and walked to the podium.

　　 must praise the light after the meal, in order to get the next gift.

　　 "Boom boom boom!"

　　 Suddenly, the impolite slap on the door rang vigorously, making the whole room seem to be shaking.

　　 Everyone looked in the direction of the door in astonishment, and held their breath for a while.

　　 "Boom boom boom!"

　　 "Policy check! Open the door now!"

　　 The people outside got impatient and slammed the door again, and a loud voice came in at the same time.

Elder 　　 Luo made a silent gesture to everyone, and then just opened a crack in the door.

　　 Before he could speak, two men in uniforms, one old and one young, immediately squeezed in, blocking the door and quickly said:

　　 "Someone reported suspicious persons who have fled here, please cooperate with the investigation! Everyone, show your identification!"

brush!

　　All the believers looked at them all at once, watching quietly.

"Ok?!"

　　 When they saw this scene in the room, the two men immediately held the gun pouch behind their waists vigilantly, their muscles suddenly bulged like a blow, and they almost broke their shirts.

　　 The person who had just watched him turned all his gazes back and lowered his head.

　　 "Sir, misunderstanding, we are all residents of this area, and there are no suspicious outsiders." Elder Luo said calmly.

　　 "Oh? Really? Cheng Lin, you go to the house to check if there are any suspicious objects."

　　 The older middle-aged inspector said, "Then what are you doing here with so many people? Are you the leader? What is your name and what do you do?"

　　Elder Luo pushed his glasses, calmly: "My name is Roger, I am a teacher, this is my qualification certificate, we are just here..."

　　 Before he could finish his words, a little boy raised his head excitedly and helped him "add": "We are praising the light!"

　　"?"

　　 The inspector glanced at the boy and laughed sarcastically: "Hey, I heard that someone from the Guangming Sect was secretly recruiting people to join the meeting. It seems that it is you."

　　 Roger opened his mouth slightly. Just about to speak, he saw the young man coming out of the kitchen and rushing up and punching him.

　　 This happened so suddenly that he hit his glasses flying off, bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and his body fell backward uncontrollably.

"what!"

　　 The believers exclaimed that two of them hurried up to support Roger, but they all felt a little unacceptable in their hearts.

　　 On weekdays, the impression that Elder Luo gave them was too lofty and a spokesperson for the light, how could someone beat him like this.

　　 At this moment, everyone's not too firm belief collapsed a bit, and they instinctively wanted to find some reasons.

correct! Besides... besides...

　　 "Private preaching usually involves fines and detention at the most. This young man does not follow the rules and actually makes a sneak attack. The attack is so heavy. I'm going to the Supervision Court to report you!"

　　 The eldest old man in it stood with the help of others and stood up, pointing tremblingly at Cheng Lin and cursing.

　　 "Hey! Okay, then I'll take you there. Everyone, all follow me back to the office for filing, not one less!"

　　 Cheng Lin picked up the basin that was still filled with fish, poured the remaining residue into a transparent bag, and put it in place.

　　 This includes the fish head that has not been eaten. It is extremely hideous and has several densely packed teeth. It seems that one bite can tear a large piece of meat from a human leg.

　　 "This is evidence."

　　 Anding City West District, No. 36 Yunlong West Road, Federal Joint Public Security Management Office.

　　 Just after two o'clock in the afternoon at five o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Lin, a member of the inspection team who had just graduated and worked for two months, stepped out of the north gate of the police station.

　　 If it is normal, I must pretend to sort out the case after get off work.

　　 At the very least, I will leave work at 10 minutes, or even 15 minutes, so that I can leave a good impression on my colleagues.

　　 But today, he felt that he was hungry very early, so despite the surprised eyes of his colleagues, he ran out as soon as the bell rang after get off work.

　　 This must be because the interrogation in the afternoon made myself too tired!

　　 Blame the **** cultist for refusing to confess who his upstream is!

　　 Even if the "special interrogation process" has been used, a lot of effort has been wasted.

　　 "Gu~"

　　 The hunger in his stomach began to protest. Cheng Lin didn't lift his head, looked in one direction, and looked for the Yuanzhou-style restaurant he often ate.

　　 North Street, West District, Ji'an Suo, is a nearby civilized night market where there are many small noodle shops and restaurants run by residents. It is one of the most lively food market streets in this area.

　　Similar to Cheng Lin, public officials assigned from other cities basically eat work meals for lunch, and choose to settle in Caichang Street for dinner.

　　 After all, if a young man living alone wants to cook for himself, on the one hand, he is limited by his will and skills.

　　 On the other hand, compared to buying whole pieces of ingredients for cooking, here because you can only buy a small part of them, the price is not too expensive, which is very cost-effective.

　　 After a long time, Cheng Lin walked out with a full hiccup.

　　 Today, he felt that he had eaten so much that he had eaten at least half of his meals more than usual.

　　 "I hope everything goes well in the evening, so you don't need to make a temporary mission, you can have enough time to ask Lao Wu and the others to come out and play a few hands."

　　 "Hey, that's not the high school teacher who came with the car last time. He seems to live nearby and can often see it. What is the name of Xie... By the way, Xie Yao!"

　　 At the entrance of a fresh food store, he saw a familiar and tall figure, and Cheng Lin happily greeted him.

　　 The other party and him are the same people who were assigned to Anding City from the main city of Yuanzhou.

Although 　　 is only a fate of several sides, it also gives Cheng Lin a kind of intimacy of encountering old friends in a foreign country.

　　 Hearing the sound, the boy turned around. He has a more outstanding appearance, his eyes are clear, like the big boy next door.

　　 If he didn't know that the other party had graduated from university and was assigned to teach in Anding Third High School, Cheng Lin would think he was still in school.

　　 After all, the other party is carrying a huge backpack at the moment, just like a student who just finished school.

　　 Cheng Lin chuckled in his heart. He is educated and talented, and he speaks nicely, which is really enviable.

　　 If I worked harder when I was studying, I wouldn't have to be assigned to a small town because of my lack of talent. I would be a patrol team member in the district...at least he would have to be a captain.

　　 "Hello, Chief Cheng, have you eaten?"

　　 "Um..."

　　 Cheng Lin stayed for a while, and immediately said enthusiastically: "Haha, thank you, don’t be so polite, just call me Brother Cheng if you don’t dislike it. I just finished eating, how about you, just finished class?"

　　 Xie Yao turned his gaze back to the stall and smiled: "Yes, I'm going to cook for myself today. Boss, if you want this one, just weigh and pack it, and I will handle it myself."

　　 The second half of his sentence was to the stall owner, pointing to a fat-headed fish that seemed to weigh eight catties.

　　 "Fish..." Cheng Lin felt nauseous inexplicably when he thought of the noon incident, but because he ate too much, he couldn't help but burp.

　　 "Your complexion doesn't look good, have you encountered any troubles?" Xie Yao took the pre-installed fish and asked casually.

　　 "Hey, what else can I do? I brought up a den of the Guangming Sect. This is actually nothing. There are at least a dozen similar sects in the West End!"

　　 This is not a secret. It was originally what Cheng Lin had prepared for a small chat with others in the evening. Seeing Xie Yao asked, he became energetic:

　　 "And, can you imagine? The guy who took the lead actually let the congregation eat fish contaminated by evil beasts!"

　　 "Yes." Xie Yao answered briefly.

　　 "..." Cheng Lin was taken aback for a moment, and what he was about to say out loud suddenly dropped by several decibels:

　　 "Eating contaminated fish will cause mutation."

Xie Yao shook his head: "No, it's not that you can't eat it. If it's just a preliminary contamination and not completely mutated, you can eat it after prying off the contaminated nodules in the brain without damage, and because it is contaminated, its meat quality will become very Delicious, just like this."

　　 Talking, Xie Yao opened the bag, performed live, took out the fathead fish, and took out a folding knife from his pocket.

　　 "Well, 7 catties and 9 taels, I am careless, I think it has eight catties."

　　 He muttered to himself, the fish's eyes suddenly showed a humane fierce look, as if he wanted to open his mouth to bite, but he was held tightly and couldn't move.

　　 "This... preliminary pollution!"

　　 Cheng Lin was taken aback, and only then did he discover that the fish had signs of mutation.

　　 Of course, this is very slight. If the fish does not open its mouth, it will not be found at all.

　　 I saw Xie Yao slap the fathead fish, poke his head with a knife, pick out a black object the size of a peanut, quickly put it in a small test tube, and stuff it into his backpack.

　　 "Have you seen it, so you can eat it. Have you learned a lot?"

　　 Xie Yao smiled and pointed to the fat head fish in his hand that had lost all vitality.

　　 "Well, it really gave me a lot of knowledge, Xiao... Teacher Xie, what I teach at school is Potions?" At this time, Cheng Lin finally reacted.

　　 Apart from the potions teacher, who would carry test tubes with them!

　　 Of course, after guessing his identity, Cheng Lin's attitude was obviously more respectful.

　　 Ordinary teachers, and potions teachers, in the eyes of these "insiders", they have completely different status.

　　 Xie Yao suddenly rubbed his fingers at him, UU reading www.uukanshu.com said:

　　 "Yes, I am a glorious people's teacher. The school paid me a salary to teach students knowledge, and I just taught you knowledge."

　　 "Uh, what?"

　　 Cheng Lin was stunned again, he felt that his head couldn't turn around.

What is he saying?

　　 Why do I know every word, but combined, I don't know what he wants to say.

　　 Xie Yao pointed to the uncle fish seller next to him: "So, you will pay for this bill as a temporary tuition fee."

　　 "......Huh?" Cheng Lin.

　　He... is he spoofing me?

　　 But, I did just say "Let me learn more."

　　 It makes sense to think so.

　　 Cheng Lin was in a daze, and found that Xie Yao had already carried the fish and walked away, and soon disappeared in the crowd.

　　 Next to him, the fat middle-aged vendor squinted his eyes and looked at him: "Sir, do you really pay?"

　　 "I'll pay!" Cheng Lin gritted his teeth.

　　 The fat boss spread his hand: "The fat head fish is 22 per kilo, the 7 catty 9 taels bought by Teacher Xiao Xie, a total of 174 federal currency, everyone is a neighbor, wipe the odds for you, and honor 180 yuan."

　　 "Whose store wiped the odds up!"

　　 Cheng Lin almost vomited blood, which was almost equivalent to half a week's salary.

　　 But after a brief period of upset, he still took out two federal banknotes with a face value of one hundred and slapped them on the table, arrogantly: "Find money!"

　　 After midnight.

　　Inspector Cheng Lin, who was sleeping in the bedroom, rolled over, and it took quite a while before he opened his eyes with difficulty.

　　 Annoying feedback came from his abdomen, causing him even his brain to stop thinking briefly.

　　 I'm so hungry.
