Starting with the Immortal Cultivation System, what can you use to fight me?
Chapter 441 Crazy Li
After Xu Ming parked the car, everyone got out and looked around. There seemed to be an imperceptible chill in the air.
Uncle Jiu looked around, his expression fixed. "The layout of this place... is quite strange, with a gathering of yin energy. It seems that the 'Yellow Immortal' has been entrenched here for a long time, and has a profound impact on the surrounding environment."
Lin Han nodded, glanced around, and then asked Xu Ming: "Xu Ming, where is your classmate's home?"
Hearing this, Xu Ming pointed to a two-story building not far away and said, "That's it, Boss. Let's go over there."
Xu Ming led everyone through a narrow alley. The stone pavement under their feet was bumpy due to years of disrepair, and each step was accompanied by a slight sound.
"Hey hey... The sky is desolate, the wilderness is boundless, the child goes home to look for his parents, but his parents are not at home, so the little ghost comes to look for him..." A strange and low nursery rhyme suddenly came from a corner not far away, like a ghost in the cold wind, which made people shudder.
I saw a sloppy and ragged old man sitting at the entrance of the alley, holding a dry branch in his hand, scribbling something on the ground, and muttering the nursery rhyme.
"Xu Ming, I'm afraid..." Yang Siqi unconsciously leaned closer to Xu Ming, her voice trembling. Xu Ming patted her shoulder to show his comfort, while looking at the old man warily.
Lin Han frowned slightly. He could sense the unusual aura emanating from the old man, but he didn't immediately show it. He slowly stepped forward and politely asked, "Old man, what are you doing here? Is there anything unusual happening around here?"
The old man looked up, his cloudy eyes seeming to see through people's hearts. He grinned, revealing his uneven teeth, and said in a hoarse and strange voice, "Unusual? It's the same every day here. It's you who are unusual. A few outsiders breaking in here are probably going to cause trouble."
After saying this, the old man lowered his head and continued scratching the ground with the dry branch, ignoring the others. Lin Han thought to himself that this old man might be related to the "Yellow Immortal" incident, but on the surface he didn't seem to have any malicious intentions. He decided to keep quiet for the time being and continue on his way.
After crossing the alley, Xu Ming arrived at Liu Yang's house and knocked on the door.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps from inside the door, and then it was flung open. Liu Yang looked at everyone excitedly, "Xu Ming, Brother Lin, you're finally here. I've been so nervous, afraid that 'Huang Xian' would come and cause me trouble again."
Lin Han smiled and patted Liu Yang's shoulder to comfort him: "Don't worry, now that we are here, we will help you solve this problem thoroughly."
Everyone followed Liu Yang into the house. The furnishings inside were simple, but fairly tidy.
"Come on, everyone, have a drink of water and take a break." Liu Yang said as he brought out a few glasses of water from the kitchen.
Everyone took the cup of water, took a sip, and temporarily relieved the fatigue from the journey.
"Liu Yang, we just ran into a slovenly, ragged old man at the alley entrance who was talking nonsense. Who is he?" Xu Ming suddenly asked.
"Oh, that old man, his last name is Li, and we all call him Crazy Li. I heard that he was a very learned man when he was young, but for some reason he went crazy and spends all day wandering around the alleys, mumbling incomprehensible words. However, the villagers say that he can see things that ordinary people can't, so everyone keeps a distance from him." Liu Yang lowered his voice, sounding a little shy.
"Interesting..." Lin Han's eyes flickered with interest when he heard this. He put down his water cup and said after a moment's silence, "Crazy Li... maybe he's not as simple as he seems. Sometimes, behind crazy words there's often a hidden truth."
"Oh, right..." Liu Yang seemed to remember something, and then said: "I was fiddling with the door last night according to the method Xu Ming said. During that time, that crazy Li passed by my door and stopped to look for a while. He muttered something, but I didn't hear it clearly. Then he shook his head and left. Thinking about it now, his eyes were quite scary at that time, as if he could see through my thoughts." When he said this, he shuddered involuntarily, and it was obvious that he was still scared by the experience last night.
Hearing this, Lin Han became even more certain that Crazy Li was inextricably linked to the "Yellow Immortal" incident. He stood up, his gaze determined. "Xu Ming, old squad leader, you two stay here for a while. Uncle Jiu and I will go meet Crazy Li."
"Okay..."
Xu Ming and Yang Siqi nodded in response.
Lin Han and Uncle Jiu walked out of the house side by side, crossed the narrow alley, and came to Li Fengzi again. At this time, Li Fengzi was still sitting on the ground, scribbling on the ground with the dead branch, and still muttering the weird nursery rhyme.
Lin Han squatted down and tried to make his tone sound gentle: "Old man, we have some questions about the unusual things in this village and would like to ask you for advice."
Crazy Li looked up, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to that chaotic state, grinning and said, "Stranger, I advise you to leave quickly... It will be very uneasy here tonight, and that little kid from the Liu family will die tonight!"
Lin Han and Uncle Jiu exchanged a glance, each seeing a solemn expression in the other's eyes. Crazy Li's words carried an inexplicable threat, as if he truly knew some unknown secret.
&34;Old man, he won't die tonight as long as I'm here!&34;
Lin Han's voice was steady and resolute, his eyes gleaming with an undeniable light. He slowly stood up, staring directly into Crazy Li's murky eyes, which seemed to see through people's hearts, and continued, "Furthermore, I believe you also have good intentions in your heart, and you don't want to see innocent people harmed. If you know anything, or can guide us on how to resolve this 'Yellow Immortal' disaster, please feel free to share your knowledge."
"Haha...you two are also from the Taoist sect, right?" Crazy Li suddenly stopped what he was doing. The chaos in his eyes seemed to be replaced by a trace of clarity. The corners of his mouth curled up into a meaningful smile.
"Though I may be mad, I am not completely ignorant. The 'Yellow Fairy' you seek is actually the product of an old grudge in this village, and it is no ordinary demon. It haunts the Liu family boy because our ancestors disrespected it, sowing the seeds of today's consequences."
"What caused 'Huang Xian' to hold such a grudge?" Lin Han asked, secretly suspecting that there must be an unknown story behind it.
Crazy Li sighed and slowly said, "Decades ago, the Liu family's ancestor, driven by selfish desires, destroyed the mountain where Huang Daxian cultivated himself and even stole his treasures, causing Huang Daxian's cultivation to suffer a severe blow and nearly killing him. Although Huang Daxian later escaped by chance, the hatred he harbored ran deep and has been passed down through the generations. Until now, he has finally found his opportunity for revenge."
