Evil Master and Disciple

As the two men landed, the surrounding carrion crows and the wild dogs that were gnawing on the carrion on the ground immediately scattered.

Yue Yinling pinched her breath and asked, "Did you crawl out from here?"

Ye Feng looked around.

When he crawled out of the grave that night, it was very dark. The human corpses around him and the ghosts floating in the air almost scared him to death.

However, geographically, this is it.

After all, this is the only mass grave around.

"Well, this is it."

"Do you remember the exact spot you crawled out of?"

"What do you want to do?"

"See if there are any clues."

Ye Feng looked at the pipe-smoking detective in front of him and smiled bitterly in his heart.

This is the scene where the body was dumped, not the crime scene.

Even though cultivators move around so high up, it is impossible for them to leave any tire marks on the ground.

Besides, three months have passed. Even if the murderer left some footprints, they would have been dug up by the wild dogs in the mountains long ago.

However, seeing that Yue Yinling was really investigating seriously, Ye Feng began to try hard to recall his original memories.

He carefully avoided the human skeletons on the ground, walked around for a moment, and then stretched his neck to look up at the sky.

Said: "It should be this area."

Yue Yinling stepped forward and began to look carefully for clues that the murderer might have left behind.

As expected of a farmer who owns a vast expanse of yellow smoke forest, she even carries a hoe, a shovel, and a pickaxe in her storage bag.

She took the pickaxe and began to dig around the small area circled by Ye Feng.

Seeing Ye Feng still standing there stupidly, looking around with a vigilant look on his face.

Yue Yinling said unhappily, "Help!"

Ye Feng shrank his neck and said, "When I crawled out of here that night, there were many ghosts and spirits floating around. The sun is about to set, so we should leave first."

"Why should we be afraid of a mere ghost? Dig quickly!"

Ye Feng thought, you have a high level of cultivation, so you are not afraid of evil spirits. My cultivation is so low, so I am afraid of ghosts!

Of course, Ye Feng finally succumbed to Yue Yinling's tyranny.

He picked up the shovel beside him and started digging.

After digging about a meter down, I actually found something.

It's a burden.

Yue Yinling pulled out the bundle, opened it, and found some clothes and a dagger inside.

Yue Yinling squatted down and looked through it, saying, "You are yours!"

Ye Feng asked curiously: "How do you know?"

Yue Yinling picked up the dagger, shook it in his hand, and said, "This is the dagger you carry with you. I've seen it several times. It seems that you are not lying. You were indeed buried here. Dig again and see if there is anything else."

Ye Feng nodded. He really didn't expect that he could actually dig something out of this damn place.

The two began to dig hard again.

It was already completely dark, and the cemetery looked even more gloomy.

Yue Yinling took out two torches from the storage bag and inserted them next to her. She snapped her fingers twice, and the two torches soaked in kerosene instantly caught fire.

Seeing this scene, Ye Feng felt extremely envious.

If I had this skill, I would save a lot of lighters every year.

Gradually, the wandering ghosts in this mass grave came out again.

As Ye Feng was digging, he felt a chill on the back of his neck. He turned around and was almost frightened to the point of incontinence.

I saw a glowing spirit floating behind me.

I was in a hurry last time and didn’t see it clearly.

This time Ye Feng saw it clearly.

These ghosts have the appearance of humans, but have no physical form. Their bodies emit a faint oily green light, and they float as if they have no weight.

"Ah! Ghost!"

Ye Feng screamed, raised the shovel in his hand and smashed it over.

The evil spirit immediately floated backwards.

Ye Feng turned his head and looked around, and found that there were many glowing ghosts slowly approaching in the darkness.

"Senior Sister Yue... there are so many ghosts! Let's run!"

Yue Yinling glanced at the approaching evil spirits.

Her body suddenly burst into a fiery red light, like a flame.

It is the true fire of Samadhi.

"Get out of here! If you dare to come any closer, I'll burn your souls to ashes!"

The group of evil spirits seemed to be very afraid of the Samadhi True Fire on Yue Yinling's body, and immediately let out sharp cries and fled in all directions.

"Amazing, Senior Sister Yue!"

Ye Feng immediately flattered Yue Yinling.

Yue Yinling snorted, "Humans have their own ways, ghosts have their own ways. These ghosts don't reincarnate and linger in the human world. How despicable."

Ye Feng became bolder at this moment. He said, "Perhaps these people died unjustly. Their obsessions were too deep, so they didn't reincarnate."

Ye Feng used to be a staunch materialist, but after coming to this world, his worldview and beliefs collapsed.

He thought of the ghost movies he had seen before. Many ghosts were not attached to the mortal world, but because they died an unnatural death, their obsessions and resentments were too deep, making it difficult for them to reincarnate, so they were forced to stay in the human world and turned into evil spirits.

However, the ghosts in this world seem to be different from the ghosts in the movies of the previous life.

With just a few words from Yue Yinling, dozens of ghosts immediately scattered like birds and beasts, and they were no better than even the weaklings in battle.

Alas, they were bullied when they were alive.

Now that he has become a ghost, he is still being bullied.

Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart that humans might be the most terrifying creatures in the world.

After digging for a while, three more things were dug out of the soil.

A very low-grade immortal sword and two silver ingots.

Yue Yinling recognized that the magic sword was the one Ye Feng used to wear around his waist.

As for the two silver ingots, each weighed a full twenty taels.

Moreover, the two silver ingots were found more than one meter apart, so it was obvious that they were not dropped by Ye Feng when he crawled out.

Ye Feng asked curiously: "Why are there two silver ingots here?"

Yue Yinling said slowly: "It was left by the murderer."

Ye Feng frowned and said, "Left by the murderer? Would he be so kind?"

Yue Yinling said, "The murderer must have known you, perhaps very well, and that's why he left two silver ingots for you to bury with him. Pack up and let's go."

Ye Feng stuffed the two silver ingots into the bag covered in mud, picked up the magic sword, picked up the green-haired badger, and then the two of them flew towards the southeast.

Instead of going to Huangyanlin, the two flew directly to the bamboo building where Ye Feng lived.

Yue Yinling said, "Boy, you'd better be careful recently. I feel like something might happen. Don't run around if there's nothing to do. I'm going back first."

"Oh, I see. Senior Sister Yue, why don't you sit here for a while?"

"No, I have something else to do."

After Yue Yinling sent Ye Feng to his accommodation, she didn't even drink a cup of tea.

This time she did not fly in the air with her physical body, but instead drew out the Red Smoke Immortal Sword, stepped on the sword and soared into the sky, turning into a streak of fire and flying away as fast as a meteor.

Ye Feng was a little confused.

Yue Yinling was obviously very interested in her own murder, so why did she leave suddenly?

I was planning to keep her here for dinner.

Since Yue Yinling had left, he was too lazy to cook tonight. He took out a lot of dried meat and threw it to the hungry little green-haired cat, then went to the bamboo house to wash up.

Then a bonfire was lit.

The boy did not take a detailed look at the things that came out of the graveyard.

Instead, he took out the bundle of yellow tobacco leaves that Yue Yinling had given him from the black silk bracelet.

He also took out an ancient music book collected by the bracelet's previous owner.

He tore off a page and placed it on the bamboo table, then took out a yellow tobacco leaf and rubbed it vigorously to turn it into tobacco shreds. Finally, he slowly rolled it up with the music paper to form a big cigar!

Ye Feng looked at the cigarette in his hand and felt like crying.

He couldn't wait to take a burning piece of wood from the campfire and light his homemade big cigar.

A strong and familiar feeling suddenly spread throughout my body.

Although this kind of dry tobacco had a very strong taste and was very strong, Ye Feng couldn't help but let out a satisfied sound.

Yes, that's what it feels like.

He has missed it for more than three months!

Ye Feng lay on the bamboo chair, feeling that he had no regrets in his life.

The green-haired badger, who was frantically chewing dried meat, looked at Ye Feng in confusion.

I don't understand why this guy doesn't eat the delicious dried meat, but instead smokes?

When Ye Feng rolled the second cigar, Yue Yinling landed in a forest.

This place is located nearly a hundred miles east of Xingluo Peak.

To the east is a vast open space where most of the Yunhai Sect’s spiritual beasts and poultry are raised.

Late at night, the spiritual beasts and poultry had all quieted down, and the outer disciples who were responsible for feeding them had also finished a tiring day's work and returned to their nearby residences to rest.

Relying on her memory, Yue Yinling walked around the forest several times.

Then we came to a small mound.

This is where Ye Feng personally dug a pit and buried the elephant.

Ye Feng was also thoughtful enough to erect a tombstone in front of the elephant's grave.

Or a stone tablet.

There were some crooked words engraved on it.

Yue Yinling pinched her fingers together, and a flame suddenly rose from her fingertips, illuminating a small area of ​​space.

She circled the elephant grave. Several months had passed and the grave was now covered with flowers and plants.

Finally, Yue Yinling came to the stone tablet.

By the light of the flame, she could make out the words on it.

"The Tomb of the Elephant Aoi-san"

It was carved by Ye Feng. Only his handwriting could be so ugly!

There is another line of words in the lower left corner.

"Ye Feng stood down."

Yue Yinling looked at these four words and always felt something was strange.

Generally speaking, tombstones are signed with "Established by So-and-so", but the tombstone in front of me reads "Established by Ye Feng".

Yue Yinling's expression changed, and she slowly squatted down, and found that the small piece of ground in front of the tombstone was obviously different from the surrounding area.

The weeds around were very lush, but the area in front of the tombstone seemed to have been recently turned over, so there were very few weeds.

Yue Yinling took out the shovel again and dug quickly.

After digging less than a foot, suddenly, there was a clicking sound from below.

Yue Yinling looked around and opened up her spiritual consciousness. After making sure that there was no one around, she resumed digging.

Soon, she dug out a two-foot square wooden box from the ground.

Looking at the wooden box, Yue Yinling fell into deep thought.

She knew the secret of Ye Feng's last murder was most likely hidden in this box.

This secret that could make the opponent kill Master Yulong's disciple must be a secret that could be exposed to the world.

Yue Yinling was a little timid and hesitant for a moment.

She didn't know whether she should open the box.

I don’t even know if opening it will bring me fatal disaster.

In the end, Yue Yinlinghai still didn't have the courage to open the box.

She stuffed the wooden box into her storage bag.

He picked up a shovel and filled the hole with soil. Since there wasn't enough soil, he dug some from the grave and finally filled the hole.

After doing all this, Yue Yinling looked at the night sky. It was already the hour of midnight.

She thought about it, then took off into the air. Instead of returning to Chiyang Peak, she flew towards the back mountain of Xingluo Peak.
