Reborn as a girl, I will live forever in the world of immortality

Without the support of black hair, the water ghosts in the lake turned into their original forms one after another. One corpse after another floated on the lake, which looked quite spectacular.

Such a large number does not match the number of missing persons in Yangshui County. In addition, such a place with such thin spiritual energy can produce such powerful evil spirits. It must have been there for many years, and these corpses have also been accumulated over the years.

After thinking about it, He Ling took out a stack of fireball talismans. These corpses were probably dead for a long time, and even their living families might not be able to recognize them. Even if Lei Liyan was asked to deal with them, he would probably just dig a hole and bury them all. It would be better to let them rest in peace. The fireball talismans began to spontaneously combust, and then fireballs flew towards the corpses on the lake.

As a fierce flame lit up, the lake surface almost became a sea of fire. Fortunately, Yangshui County had not been peaceful recently and no one dared to go out at night, so this scene was not seen by mortals.

After dealing with the corpse, He Ling's face turned pale. She had manipulated too many golden sword talismans before. Although it did not consume her own spiritual energy, it consumed a lot of her mental energy. She couldn't help feeling tired.

Looking around again, he saw no new water ghosts emerging from the lake, so he simply walked back. He walked all the way to the large hole. A wave of doubt rose in his heart. Could that black hair have made such a large circular hole? As for those water ghosts, they couldn't even break open the wooden door of such a small courtyard, so how could they break through the solid city wall?

Walking back to the courtyard, I saw rotting corpses all over the ground. I threw out a few fireball talismans and a big fire broke out on the ground.

When she returned to the yard, the house was spotless, and everything was exactly the same as when she left, except that there was no green figure beside her. She shook off the chaotic thoughts in her mind, lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

The next day, He Ling finally woke up when the sun was halfway up the mountain.

He looked at the sky and recalled that he had an appointment with Lei Liyan today. He casually performed a dust-removal spell and went out.

She came to Chunshui Teahouse again. She had made an appointment with Lei Liyan yesterday to meet here today.

It was the same room as yesterday. Lei Liyan had been waiting here for a long time, and a cup of steaming hot tea was already placed on He Ling's seat.

Lei Liyan smiled when he saw He Ling, "Sister Ling'er, you came at the right time. You came just when I finished soaking."

In fact, Lei Liyan had arrived a long time ago and even changed the tea leaves twice. He waited for an hour before He Ling finally arrived.

He Ling nodded slightly and sat down.

"Sister Ling'er, I wonder if you slept well last night?" Lei Liyan didn't know how to ask directly, so he could only ask in this roundabout way.

He Ling nodded, but did not bring the topic back to the courtyard. "Captain Lei, I know what's going on in Yangshui County now."

Lei Liyan paused in pouring tea and looked at He Ling in surprise. He had been busy for half a year and still had no idea what was going on. He just came yesterday, but he already knew the situation?

Although I know that He Ling has supernatural skills, this is too efficient.

He Ling naturally didn't know what Lei Liyan was thinking, so he continued, "There's an evil spirit in Yangshui Lake. It should be extending along the river all the way into Yangshui County. You can go back and compare. Most of the people living along the river should have disappeared."

Lei Liyan nodded. He had been investigating this case for so long that he naturally knew about this situation, but he had never thought about it in the direction of gods and ghosts before.

Lei Liyan took a sip of hot tea thoughtfully, "Miss Ling'er, are those missing people safe and sound?"

He Ling simply shook his head.

Lei Liyan's heart sank. Among these missing people, many were young masters and young ladies from wealthy families. Some even had some connections with the county magistrate. If he couldn't find them, he would be in trouble.

But all this naturally had nothing to do with He Ling. Lei Liyan poured more tea for He Ling and then asked carefully, "Sister Ling'er, I wonder if you have already wiped out that evil demon?"

He Ling nodded again.

Lei Liyan's face lit up with joy, "Sister Ling'er, could you let me see the corpse of that evil demon? Or do you have any...proof?" When he said the second half of the sentence, he looked at He Ling's expression and hesitated for a while before saying it.

Lei Liyan is a government official after all, and the matter requires evidence. You can't just kill him if you want to.

He Ling naturally knew what he meant, but the proof was a little difficult to deal with. She had burned the corpses in the lake last night, and all that was left of the hair and skulls was a small jade bone piece in her storage bag. If she took this out, she was afraid that no one would believe it.

He Ling had no intention of showing off in front of others. She thought for a moment and said, "Captain Lei, you can go to the river in Yangshui County and salvage some fish. You will know whether what I said is true or not."

Upon hearing this, Lei Liyan nodded. Although he was a little disappointed that He Ling could not produce any evidence, he could still go to the river to salvage it and find out whether it was real or fake, so there was no need to rush.

"Sister Ling'er, now that you've killed that evil demon, life in Yangshui County should be peaceful, right?"

"Haha." Lei Liyan originally just made a joke, but when he saw He Ling's expression, he couldn't laugh anymore.

Afterwards, He Ling told Lei Liyan the general situation of the matter, but did not mention the jujube tree. He only said that the yin energy in Yangshui County was too strong, which would constantly attract all kinds of demons and monsters. He Ling could use secret techniques to change the situation in Yangshui County, but it would take a long time, about a month.

It would be best for Lei Liyan to keep the crowd away from Wanglai Street as much as possible before this period of time.

After the two parted, Lei Liyan returned to the yamen with a heavy face. As soon as he came back, he called a group of constables and took scoop nets to various rivers in Yangshui County to fish. Sure enough, they caught several corpses and a large clump of black hair. However, these hairs were very fragile and broke directly with a little force.

Lei Liyan's heart sank. What He Ling said was indeed true. The days after that would probably be even more turbulent.

He arranged for others to continue fishing, and he went directly to the county magistrate's office. The county magistrate was no longer the same person, but an old man with white hair.

He was also shocked and confused when he heard about this. He originally did not believe in these weird and supernatural stories, but when these words came from the mouth of Lei Liyan, the chief constable whose power was second only to his, it made a different story.

After thinking about it, he decided to go with He Ling, the immortal mentioned by Lei Liyan.

After receiving the message from Lei Liyan, He Ling didn't want to meet him. However, he thought that Yangshui County had become like this because of the jujube tree, and the reason why the jujube tree could become a spiritual seed was probably because of himself. After thinking about it, He Ling was afraid of being involved in some cause and effect, so he chose to go and meet him.
