Chapter 35: Bad News

In the deep darkness, Lin Beixuan slowly raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot, the whites of his eyes were covered with bloodshot, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura.

His face was pale and lifeless, like a living corpse.

This is the price of frequent use of the Ghost Hall. The body is invaded by negative energy, the blood is frozen, and there is more death than life.

However, Lin Beixuan didn't care about it. He cared more about his gains than the physical changes.

The forty-seven foodless evil minions increased his strength attribute by nearly 5 points, and the annual tribute plus the one he had saved before had exceeded a thousand.

Lin Beixuan immediately prepared to upgrade his existing destiny, but the prompt on the panel made him a little disappointed.

[Fate - Extremely Evil (Green), upgrading this fate will consume a thousand-year-old coin (completed). ]

[Materials required for upgrading: tiger bones, wolf hearts, butcher knives... (unfinished)]

"..."

"I didn't expect that simply consuming the year coins wouldn't be enough to upgrade my fate. I need to prepare some things!"

Lin Beixuan frowned slightly and walked stiffly to the farmhouse where the villains had used to confuse the villagers.

Since the evildoers were killed, these farmhouses, which seemed to have been built not long ago, quickly decayed and collapsed, turning into a pile of rotten wood and grass.

Although the individual combat power of those foodless evil minions is not good, their ability to confuse people is not weak. They can actually confuse people with this pile of junk.

If it weren't for the panel he had, he might have died once by now.

Thinking of the abilities he copied from Wu Shi's evil minions, Lin Beixuan felt that he might never use them in his lifetime.

However, he also unlocked a new entry because of this.

'Charm'!
He knew quite a few attribute terms, including strength, breaking evil spirits, blood recovery, lightness, speed, and now there was charm. Lin Beixuan was curious about what else he would have in the future.

Smelling the foul odor in the air, Lin Beixuan walked towards Huangshi Village, intending to take a rest in the temple first and then prepare a series of materials to upgrade his destiny.

Huangshi Village is backed by mountains and forests, and there are many hunters in the village, so these things should not be difficult to find.

Just as he was dragging his injured body back to the village with full of thoughts, he saw torches lit at the entrance of Huangshi Village and two people wandering around.

One of them was the crazy old beggar, and the other one was someone Lin Beixuan had never seen before. He was an old man with one eye blind. He was sitting on the dirt and rocks at the entrance of the village, smoking a pipe in his hand.

The old beggar was quite sharp-eyed. When he saw Lin Beixuan walking out of the village, he subconsciously stepped back, trying to hide himself.

Seeing this, the blind old man narrowed his remaining intact eye and looked towards Lin Beixuan.

However, just this one glance made the old man's hair stand on end.

In his eyes, Lin Beixuan was half hidden and half disappeared in the darkness, with a mixture of living and dead energy on his body. He looked like both a human and an evil spirit wandering in the night, which was extremely weird.

Lin Beixuan walked closer and closer, and under the nervous gaze of the blind old man, he soon arrived in front of the two people.

Lin Beixuan glanced at the blind old man with calm eyes, thought for a moment, and decided to tell him about the appearance of Wu Shi's evil henchman.

He was not the original soul of this body. He was not familiar with the villagers in Huangshi Village and had basically no social interaction with them. Instead of going door to door to deliver the news, it would be better to tell the incident directly to someone and let that person convey it for him.

As for whether the other party believed it or not, it was none of his business. "A group of evil people have come to the village. Let the villagers prepare early." Lin Beixuan said these words calmly.

The old man, who had originally looked a little nervous, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Lin Beixuan speak, and secretly sighed that it was fortunately not some evil spirit. There are many strange people and strange things in the secular world, so it is normal to meet a half-dead person.

But when he heard what Lin Beixuan said, his eyes immediately widened, the pipe in his hand fell to the ground, and he stood up from the earth and rocks.

"What did you just say?" the blind old man asked, still in disbelief.

Lin Beixuan took a deep breath and repeated his words again, and at the same time told others that several villagers from Huangshi Village had also been killed.

The blind old man was stunned on the spot, with an unconcealable fear revealed in his only remaining eye, and he couldn't help muttering.

"How could it happen so quickly? How could Luozhou government allow those things to spread here?"

"Village...Village Chief."

The old beggar patted the blind old man's shoulder and seemed to want to say something comforting, but because of his stuttering, the words could not come out.

"village head?"

Lin Beixuan looked at the blind old man in surprise. He didn't expect that the man in front of him was the village chief.

In ancient times, the village chief had great status and power in the village. He was often an elder in the village, and was basically responsible for the direction of the village's development.

It can be said that the village chief in ancient times represented the will of the entire village. This is why people in the same village are more united, because there is such an old man holding them in check.

However, Lin Beixuan's words just now made the village chief look extremely frightened.

As the village chief, it is impossible for the blind old man to be completely unaware of the famine in Luozhou Prefecture. After all, Huangshi Village is right on the border of Qingzhou and borders Luozhou. Even if it is very closed, there should be news of it.

He knew that there was a starving people problem in Luozhou Prefecture, but he did not expect that Luozhou government office not only failed to suppress it, but allowed it to spread.

"Although the starving ghosts are just ordinary ghosts, once they take shape, they will become a great evil that can sweep the world!"

The blind village chief looked outside the village. In the silent forest, there seemed to be pairs of dry and bony hands reaching out to him.

"I must notify them immediately."

The village chief looked impatient. He picked up the torch and prepared to go and inform everyone in the village in person. The old beggar followed him, anxiously and frantically.

He stammered, "It's not safe at night. It's best to stay at home."

Yes, the night in the secular world is much more dangerous than the day. If the day is the world of the living, the night is the world of evil spirits, with ghosts and monsters running rampant. They may be a little afraid of people, but they will never let people wander around in front of them.

Lin Beixuan frowned at this time. Even a newcomer like him knew the rules of the secular world, although he basically never followed them because he had a resurrection mechanism. But the village chief in front of him even forgot the rules in his panic. It was obvious that the starving ghost had given him a great shock.

Finally, the village chief calmed down under Lin Beixuan's advice. He stared and said helplessly: "Now that Erniu and Zhuzi have been killed, how can I talk to their wives!"

He would wait at the entrance of the village at night because the two wives hoped that the village chief could help them find their husbands who had been missing for a day.

As night fell, I didn't expect to receive such bad news.

 Today, because the previous chapters were secretly modified and deleted by the review, I have to find them myself and then replace them with new words. It's really annoying. What kind of big purge is this? Even human organs, hands and feet cannot be written. It's too outrageous.
