Starting his cultivation from marrying the Weaver Girl

Chapter 57 Beginning
After Lin Yao spoke, the noisy conversations around him quieted down, and the man in the lead looked at him.

He seemed to be thinking about Lin Yao's identity, but after a while, he spoke.

"In that case, tell me about it."

"We can only recuperate in the Fengmen Ancient House on weekdays. Our bodies exist in Fengmen Village. Only Su Nu is around outside the inner house on weekdays. My chances of survival are almost gone. How about we use this opportunity to get close to that Mi Tou Tuo follower, steal his trust, and lurk by his side. If we can enter the inner three floors, perhaps we still have a chance."

After Lin Yao finished speaking, he fell silent again. He did not give too many details.

This alone is enough. Saying too much may reveal some flaws.

The leader listened to his words and lowered his head to think about the feasibility of the plan.

Lin Yao dared to say this, so he naturally had enough confidence.

When he arrived at the village entrance, he secretly unfolded the Weaving of Life. He did not seek to let the leader enter his illusion, but just to affect his thoughts.

However, Lin Yao was secretly worried. If he were alive, these priests were fighting with the four evil gods, his little tricks would be nothing but childish play in their eyes.

But now they have been sleeping for many years, and have even been forced to separate their bodies and souls. I am afraid that their cultivation is not even one-tenth of what it was in life.

"what's your name?"

The leader suddenly spoke, and this question made Lin Yao's heart tremble.

"Qingli."

Lin Yao spoke calmly. He had accidentally seen this surname on a stone tablet when he passed by the entrance of Fengmen Village. There were hundreds of people present. He couldn't be so unlucky as to bump into one of them.

"Priest Qingli, I'll leave this matter to you."

The leader bowed in the direction of Lin Yao, and the other villagers also stood up and saluted him.

"I wonder if Priest Qingli would be willing to come down to my room and have a chat?"

The words of the leader hit the mark exactly what Lin Yao wanted. His purpose tonight was to spy on the secrets of Fengmen Village.

The villagers all followed this man's words, and only from him could Lin Yao get more secrets.

"nature."

The leader nodded slightly.

"Everyone, please go ahead and listen to the opera in the ancient house. Qingli and I will be there later."

Everyone got up and headed for the Fengmen ancient house, leaving only Lin Yao and the other two at the village entrance.

"Master Priest, you don't need to go to your room. You can stay here."

Just as the man was about to lead the way, Lin Yao suddenly spoke.

After all, the entrance to Fengmen Village is open, so if I were to be exposed, I could still maneuver around.

If I go to his room, I will be walking into a trap. What I just agreed to was just a temporary solution.

"What did you call me?"

"Master Priest."

Lin Yao bent his body slightly, ready to escape if the person in front of him suddenly attacked.

"Has your memory also been worn away so much?"

The following words made Lin Yao relax a little.

"I can't remember many things anymore. Joining this game today was out of helplessness. Rather than just being obsessed with it and becoming a wandering ghost, bringing disaster to the world, I'd rather fight those filthy people to the death."

Lin Yao deliberately lowered his voice, and with his somewhat hoarse voice, a desolate and tragic emotion quietly rose in the heart of the leader.

"Ugh."

A sigh came from his mouth.

"Do you remember who we are?"

The leader looked at Lin Yao, but saw him just shaking his head, and a sense of inexplicable sadness arose in his heart.

"I can't remember it clearly. Even the name is blurry."

Lin Yao's words made the leader tremble slightly, not knowing whether it was sadness or anger.

"We are Nuo. The great Nuo that helps people to avoid misfortune and bring good luck." Lin Yao frowned slightly. If that was the case, it made sense. In his memory, Nuo priests always wore masks when performing sacrifices. This matched the fact that every household in Fengmen Village hung a mask.

"Houses that never wore masks..."

"All dead, consumed by filth."

The leader's chest rose and fell slightly, and he must have been feeling extremely emotional inside.

The two walked slowly in Fengmen Village.

"I'm dying too. Rather than being consumed by filth, I might as well fight them one more time."

Lin Yao followed his words and these words made the leader's eyes flash.

But in the end it was replaced by desolation.

"Take care of yourself."

Lin Yao waved his hand and then asked.

"What's with that stage? I see people going to the theater every night, and some vague memories come to mind while watching the show, but I can't remember what they are."

Lin Yao raised the most critical question in his heart, since he had already gained the trust of the leader.

So there is no need to hide some things, as this will be counterproductive. It is better to be straightforward.

After all, his current identity is a person who has lost his memory.

"That's a very old tradition in our village. Nuo practitioners travel the world, transferring the suffering and misfortunes of the world to themselves. After a long time, they will gradually lose themselves. Before that, they will return to the village to watch operas. This stage was passed down by the older generation, specifically to awaken the Nuo practitioners' own memories. It's normal for you to feel something when listening to the opera."

Lin Yao understood. No wonder so many memories came to his mind after listening to the opera. But it was his first time in Fengmen Village, and he was not a Nuo master. Why did he have any connection with the stage?

"If that's the case, what would happen if an ordinary person were to listen to the opera?"

The leader smiled and continued to answer.

"Do you remember the reaction of that Mithudao follower last night?"

"remember."

Lin Yao naturally remembered it, after all, it was his own experience.

"If a mortal were to hear this strange play, memories of past lives would emerge, and even intertwine with the soul of this life, eventually driving them mad."

Lin Yao raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing this. In that case, he would have to pay more attention to this trick.

However, you still need to participate more. After all, the secrets about yourself may only be gradually revealed in your previous life.

As the two were talking, they had already arrived not far from the entrance of the Fengmen ancient house.

Lin Yao took the opportunity to ask the last question.

"Can Su Nu be trusted?"

The leader stopped and looked towards the gate of the ancient house. Su Nu was already sitting in the audience.

"This person was sent by the owner of the Wangsheng Inn. He said he came to help us, but in fact, he was just here to monitor us."

After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with the Rebirth Inn and Su Nu.

really.

Lin Yao looked at Su Nu's back. It seemed that the relationship between Wangsheng Inn and Fengmen Village was not as close as she said.

The people in Fengmen Village were not willing to guard the Wangsheng Inn.

In this way, he would have room to maneuver among these three forces.

As long as the relationship between them is driven solely by interests, it will be extremely fragile.

The two walked to the gate of the Fengmen ancient house.

"Your Excellency the Priest, I will go ahead."

After Lin Yao finished speaking, he stepped into the Fengmen Ancient House. At the same time, another person wearing a big-headed doll mask stood next to Su Nu.
