I Don't Want to Be a Charmboy【Quick Wear】

Everyone has heard about what happened in Taohua Village.

The original book also said that it was just an ordinary phantom demon that controlled the people in the village and made them fall into a deep sleep.

Originally, no one would have discovered it because Taohua Village is relatively closed and the people inside are unwilling to come out.

But one day, a man wanted to visit his relatives in Taohua Village, but he never came out after he went in. His family was worried and reported to the authorities. Then, one person went in and disappeared, like dumplings in a pot.

Canglan Ting went to inquire about this matter early and had some understanding of it, so he decided to set off this afternoon.

The five of them had no objection, so they packed up and set off.

As soon as I walked out of the inn, the group of people from the Qishan clan yesterday followed me.

Cang Lanting frowned and looked unkindly at the group of people who were secretly glancing at the boy out of the corner of their eyes.

Su Qiheng stepped forward and said, "Dear fellow Taoists, are you here because of the slumber in Taohua Village?"

Guan Hua had not been able to talk to the boy since yesterday and was in a bad mood. Who would have thought that these arrogant and domineering people would dare to come up to him yesterday.

He immediately stepped forward and said in a bad tone: "Why, are you planning to get involved too? I heard that the Qishan clan will not do anything without profit, and now you have set your sights on some treasure or... person."

Su Qiheng still maintained a cool demeanor and spoke politely, "We are just more interested in this matter. Fellow Daoist Guan, please do not make random guesses."

Caring teeth.

Everyone knows that you, the Qishan clan, value profit over loyalty, and act like real businessmen. Yet, now you are pretending.

"Guan Xiang, come back." Cang Lanting said, and then looked at Su Qiheng and the others, "Yes, but we will not travel with others."

Su Qiheng's expression did not change. He looked at the young man behind him and said pitifully: "What did Fellow Daoist Lin say?"

Lin Shen shook his head, looked at Zhongli, and did not answer.

Zhongli understood what the boy meant, and his originally unhappy mood instantly brightened up. He had other plans. If he succeeded, the boy would be his alone. He got excited just thinking about it.

But what if there are too many people and they ruin his plan? Fortunately, Lin Shen doesn't like these people either.

"Brother doesn't like crowds, sorry."

Lin Shen nodded, thinking that Zhongli was a really good follower. After all, he wanted to do something bad, and he couldn't have too many people around.

Su Qiheng looked at Lin Shen deeply, without any expression, and said with regret: "That's a pity."

The annoying stinky rat would snatch the boy away and keep him all to himself. Just thinking about it made his blood boil with excitement.

"In that case, see you later." Su Qiheng said with a smile.

After the people from the Qishan clan left, Canglan Ting and his group continued to move towards Taohua Village.

Along the way, everyone was silent. Guan Hua looked back from time to time to make sure that the people from the Qishan clan had not caught up with them.

Lin Shen lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about. Seeing his absent-minded look, Zhongli asked softly, "Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Shen came back to his senses and shook his head: "Nothing, just a little worried."

Actually, Lin Shen was thinking about how to complete the mission. This mission was too risky. The original owner's current timeline had not yet revealed what he had done, so he had to keep it secret and not let anyone know. This really worried Lin Shen.

Cang Lanting comforted him: "Don't worry."

"Yeah." Lin Shen replied unconsciously. This made Cang Lanting stunned for a moment. The boy hadn't talked to him much in the past few days, and now that he could respond to him, he was very happy.

Unconsciously, they had arrived at the entrance of Taohua Village. The whole village was eerily quiet, as if there was no one living there. Cang Lanting signaled everyone to enter the village carefully...

The village was filled with thick fog, making it impossible to see the road ahead. Lin Shen walked in the middle of the team, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew away some of the fog, and they found a shabby thatched cottage in front of them, with a dim lantern hanging at the door.

Canglanting pushed open the door, and a stale smell hit him. There were some simple furniture in the room, and a yellowed portrait hung on the wall.

As they looked around, a figure walked out from the shadows. It turned out to be an old man with empty eyes, as if he had lost his soul.

The old man spoke slowly, his voice hoarse: "You are finally here..."

"Something is not right, there are two evil spirits!" Canglanting transmitted the message to the five people, then tightly grasped Zhuihun.

Zhongli also felt it and quietly moved closer to Lin Shen.

Something is wrong here. Aren't they all asleep? Why are there still people here? It seems that things are not that simple.

Lin Shen frowned. There was no such part in the plot, so he wanted to ask 003.

"003, why is this part not included in the original plot? It doesn't look like it was done by an ordinary phantom monster."

[Ding! Your system is offline]

Lin Shen: ???

Cang Lanting stepped forward, "Old man, why are you here?"

The old man had a hunched back and a numb expression. He looked up at everyone, paused for a moment when he saw the young man in the middle and Zhongli beside the young man, and then quickly looked away.

"I was the village chief of Taohua Village. A few days ago, a phantom monster came to Taohua Village, and then the people in the village fell into a deep sleep." The voice was as soft as a stick of firewood, giving people a feeling of being about to die.

"Then why are you awake?" Guan Li was really curious and asked anxiously.

The old man had no expression, still looking numb, like a puppet. "I met a Taoist priest before, and he gave me a talisman."

Lin Shen always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. This old man was really a little weird.

"What talisman?" Lin Shen asked anxiously.

The old man glanced at the young man, reached into his pocket, fumbled around, and pulled out a crumpled piece of talisman paper.

Guan Hua stepped forward to take the talisman paper and took a closer look, but couldn't figure out anything. They didn't know much about talisman paper.

The twins' eyes lit up and they said in unison: "An evil-repelling talisman!"

Cang Lanting looked at the two of them, and handed the talisman paper in his hand to Yu Yan and Yu Xian with concern.

Yu Yan took the talisman paper and looked at it carefully. "I have seen this talisman in Fu Jian Sect. It is not very powerful, but it is more than enough to protect myself."

Yu Xian nodded and continued his brother's words, "However, this kind of talisman paper is rare. Because it is not very powerful, most people in the Fu Jian Sect don't like to use this kind of talisman. We only saw it once by coincidence."

As the two talked, they kept looking in the direction of the young man, just like peacocks spreading their tails.

Lin Shen frowned as he listened to what the two said.

Now that the original plot has changed, we can only take it one step at a time.

Zhongli's eyes darkened as he looked at the boy, then moved slightly closer to him and sniffed his fragrance.

The old man had no expression on his face while the others were talking, and only gave a subtle glance at the person next to the young man.

Lin Shen was a little annoyed and asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone: "Do you know who that Taoist priest is?"

The old man shook his head numbly, with no expression on his face, like a puppet without emotions.

They looked at each other and realized that this time it might not be as simple as written in the mission.

Cang Lanting frowned, "Something is not going on here. I will report the situation over a thousand miles. Let's go back to the inn first."

No one had any objection and was about to talk to the old man.

"Bang..." The old man's head fell to the ground, and then his body began to wither rapidly. He fell to the ground, leaving only a skeleton. Everyone's eyes widened.

Lin Shen couldn't see, but only heard the sound. He pulled Zhong Li next to him and asked, "What happened?"

Zhongli smiled slightly, but his tone was calm, "That old man is not a human, only a skeleton is left?"

Lin Shen thought for a moment and shouted in surprise: "Oh no, puppetry!"

Several people reacted and realized that they were just delaying time.
