New and dark light years

Chapter 7: The Truth Cannot Be Known

It was another morning when a mournful suona sound was heard from the village, accompanied by a faint woman's wailing.

Li Lin sat in his home, slowly drinking tea to relieve the greasiness.

He didn't need to attend Xiuniang's funeral. After all, he was a spirit hunter and had strong blood. Following the coffin would disturb the deceased.

At this moment, he was wondering who had harmed Xiuniang.

If Xiuniang was just being eaten by a weird thing, then there would be nothing special about it.

There are always unlucky people in this world who go out and fail to return to the village or city in time, and then spend the night in the wild and become strange food.

But the problem lies in the technique of "Wangliangtaizang Miyi".

This is a kind of evil magic. Even though Li Lin is a novice spirit hunter, he has heard of the name of this magic.

It is extremely evil and inhumane.

The Tree Fairy Goddess sucked out his essence twelve times before she said one word: afterbirth!
Although he had a clue, Li Lin felt it was not worth it at all.

It's just a word, without a beginning or an end. How can Li Lin look it up?

But having said that, although the voice of the Tree Fairy Queen is cold, it is really nice to hear.

He took a few more sips of tea, and after waiting for half an hour, he picked up the white jade token and tied it to his belt, preparing to go to the county town to meet Wang Tianyou.

Almost everyone in the village was helping Xiuniang with the funeral, and there was no one else in the village.

When Li Lin arrived at the village entrance, he unexpectedly found Zhao Xiaohu sitting under a big tree, looking very lost.

"Why don't you go and see Xiuniang off for the last time?" Li Lin asked curiously.

"Brother Lin..." Zhao Xiaohu responded first, then said sullenly, "They won't let me go."

"why?"

"Because Sister Xiuniang is actually my wife-to-be, I don't really understand what taboos there are."

Ah!
Li Lin really didn't know about this.

He had been in the village for no more than half a year, and he spent most of his time practicing martial arts and rarely chatted with the villagers, so he didn't know much about the village.

Zhao Xiaohu stood up and said dejectedly, "Originally, I was going to marry Sister Xiuniang when I turned fifteen. She's three years older than me. Ah Da said that a woman three years older than you is a good match for a rich man. Sister Xiuniang has been very nice to me, but I didn't expect..."

"Condolences."

Li Lin patted the other person's shoulder. He knew very well how difficult it was to find a wife that suited his taste in a rural area like this.

Besides, the two of them can be considered childhood sweethearts?

It’s just that Zhao Xiaohu looks too mature, but this mature look doesn’t seem bad when paired with a girl three years older than him.

It's just... it's all in the past.

The person is gone, what else can be said.

"Brother Lin." Zhao Xiaohu suddenly stared at Li Lin: "Was Sister Xiuniang murdered by someone?"

"No...why would you think so!"

"Because Sister Xiuniang is not that kind of person. She is very sensible and obedient and won't run around."

"Don't think too much." Li Lin patted Zhao Xiaohu's shoulder again: "Everyone makes mistakes sometimes."

He would not tell the villagers that someone was trying to murder Xiuniang.

Because ordinary villagers simply cannot afford the consequences of knowing the truth.

Zhao Xiaohu lowered his head.

After leaving the village, it took more than half an hour to reach the county town, and Li Lin went straight to the county government office.

After arriving at the location, they found that Wang Tianyou was already waiting there, and there were two middle-aged men besides him.

Li Lin knew both of them.

He walked over, clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Senior Zhou, Senior Su, nice to see you again."

Zhou Yutong clasped his fists and smiled, his tone indifferent: "Brother Li, nice to meet you."

Instead, Su Huafang came up to Li Lin with a friendly look on his face and patted him on the shoulder: "Not bad, you are in much better shape than before. It seems that blood rice is still very nutritious." Su Huafang is Li Lin's mentor.

It was he who discovered that Li Lin had the potential to be a spirit hunter, and then taught him step by step. He even gave Li Lin the 'Rejuvenation Secret Technique'.

Li Lin said gratefully, "Senior Su, how are you doing recently?"

"It's okay. I just help people exorcise demons everywhere. After a long time, my body can't take it anymore. After all, I'm old. I'll just have to work for a few more years and then I can retire."

At this time, Wang Tianyou stepped forward and said with a smile: "Senior Su looks like he is in his prime. It is too early for him to retire."

Su Huafang stroked his beard and laughed. He specialized in rejuvenation and health-preserving exercises. He was in his fifties, but looked only in his early thirties.

This is what he is most proud of.

At this time, two more people came together, a man and a woman.

Li Lin had never seen these two people before.

Wang Tianyou immediately helped introduce each other, and soon everyone knew each other.

"Is this how you found the 'penis'?"

This woman is a young woman with an average face and a decent figure. She looks pretty good.

She looked at Li Lin in surprise, clicking her tongue.

Li Lin was a little unhappy and said, "Using the word phallus to describe it is a bit harsh, isn't it, Ding Xunshu?"

Ding Yingchun chuckled. "It's indeed a very strong Yang energy. I'm just speaking the truth. If you're unhappy, you can scold me a bit... Or how about I give you a red envelope after this is over?"

When others heard this, they laughed and looked at Li Lin with some envy.

Li Lin was stunned, not knowing what this meant.

Su Huafang, stroking his beard, said, "Parliament Officer Ding, let's forget about this. Brother Li is still relying on this Yang Qi to support his blood and Qi."

"Let's talk about it later." Ding Yingchun said regretfully.

Wang Tianyou interrupted at this time: "It's not too early. Let's go eat some food and drink first to fill our stomachs so that we can have the energy to work in the evening."

Naturally, no one objected to this proposal.

Wang Tianyou invited them to the best restaurant in the county.

Eat and chat.

These people are considered to be veterans in the spirit hunting industry, and it is very interesting to chat about gossip.

Li Lin, a novice, really learned a lot from it.

…………

Three hours later, several people rode out of the county town and arrived near a small town more than ten kilometers away.

There is an abandoned land temple here.

Wang Tianyou immediately pointed to the temple entrance and said, "The ghost is inside the temple. It will come out at midnight."

Ding Yingchun dismounted and said, "I'll go and set up the defense zone first, to prevent other ghosts from causing trouble."

"Sorry to trouble you, Patrol Officer Ding." Wang Tianyou clasped his fists.

Ding Yingchun smiled, then took out a white porcelain bottle from his belt, uncorked it, and walked forward while sprinkling dust.

When the dust fell to the ground, it turned light blue. In the dim environment, it looked very... weird, like ghost fire falling to the ground, forming a prison on the ground.

Li Lin was quite curious.

Su Huafang walked over and whispered, "Cruiser Ding is a descendant of the Ding family in Guicheng. She has inherited the art of alchemy from her family. It's quite powerful. She can heal the body and create magical instruments. This is the Yujie powder of alchemy, which only people from three families know how to refine. But don't get too close to her. The Ding family has a dual cultivation technique... It's said that they learned it from Guimei, and it can suck a person's bone marrow dry."

so smart!

Li Lin subconsciously thought of the tree fairy in the village.

"Um, what does it mean to give a red envelope?"

Su Huafang looked at him strangely: "You really don't know?"
