Looking for you in reincarnation

"Let's go and deal with the matter of Stone Village first." Guo Yi sighed helplessly, and then left the morgue with the chief official.

The incident of Stone Village is even more troublesome. Who could have thought that burning the village would cause so many troubles?

It's unclear if Stone Village had done something sinister to attract the powerful evil spirit that destroyed the village. Even after the village was burned, the unknown virus spread through the smoke, infecting all the immortal masters and officials outside the village!

What's even more strange is that when the smoke filled the air, a group of zombies crawled out of a cellar under the village and attacked everyone outside the village!

Many officials lost their lives, and many immortal masters were seriously injured and unconscious. Now the doctors in the clinic are helpless, and the people in the government office are also busy and overwhelmed. Who has the time to care about the case of the merchant's son jumping off the building?

If Sun Qiquan had not died in the street in public, causing such a huge impact, the chief officer would not have taken the trouble to visit the inn.

How can the death of one person be compared to the death of an entire village? Not to mention the death of an official!

That night, some people were busy, some were grieving, and some were sleeping soundly.

……

Early in the morning, Si He woke up early. She slept well last night.

I don’t know if it’s because she has encountered a lot of horrifying things recently, so she is slowly starting to adapt to it. Even after killing someone, she can still sleep well.

After all, this wasn't her first time killing someone.

After washing up, she just opened the door and saw that the door of the guest room opposite had already been opened. Ning Ji was sitting at the table, drinking tea calmly, obviously waiting for her.

"Good morning, cousin."

"Yeah." He put down the teacup, stood up, and walked out of the room. "Let's go out and eat something first."

Si He nodded, "Okay."

After leaving the inn, he asked her opinion, "What do you want to eat?"

She looked up at him, the morning light shining on him, the faint warm golden light seemed to melt some of his indifference. Only then did she realize that he was actually quite tolerant of her and had more patience with her than with outsiders.

She smiled faintly, "Anything is fine except bread."

Because she didn't have a good impression of cakes, and they tasted bad, so she couldn't get used to them.

He looked at her smiling face with a deep gaze and said, "Okay."

The two walked along the street for a while, and finally entered a bun shop and ordered buns and rice porridge.

The bun shop was doing good business, and the tables and chairs in the store were almost full, but most of them were disciples of the Immortal Sect. They were discussing the affairs of Stone Village. It seemed that they had only arrived in Lunt City yesterday afternoon and had not had time to visit Stone Village.

Opposite the bun shop is a clinic. It was here that the injured disciples of Taiyi Sect were treated yesterday, so most of the topics they discussed were about this.

Thinking back to what I saw yesterday with the Taiyi Sect disciples, it seemed quite serious.

She lowered her head, ate breakfast in silence, and paid attention to the conversations around her.

"This Taiyi Sect is just a name for nothing. They lost so many people just to deal with a mere evil spirit!"

"That's right, huh~ They always brag about how great they are. Look at what they say."

"That's not true. I heard the evil spirit in Stone Village is really powerful. It's not just the Taiyi Sect disciples who suffered. Didn't the Baishi Sect, Hongyun Sect, and Guangshan Sect all suffer heavy losses? This clearly shows that this matter is extraordinary."

"Indeed, and the Taiyi Sect's detoxification pills are also well-known for their effectiveness. I heard they can't even cure the corpse poison, so they can only suppress it temporarily. I'm afraid no other sect can cure this poison right now, right?"

"That's truly incredible! I heard that someone from Stone Village dug up someone else's ancestral grave. That's why the corpse poison spread, affecting the entire village. I don't know whose grave it was, but it's so terrible!"

……

There is an endless stream of discussions about Stone Village.

The more Si He listened, the more she understood the various reasons involved. Of course, there were probably a lot of rumors involved.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Ning Ji opposite her. This guy should know better.

Noticing her gaze, Ning Ji also looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

She thought about it, but didn't ask. Instead, she said, "The buns here are delicious. I want to buy a few more for lunch. I plan to stay in the guest room today and continue practicing the moves you taught me."

Anyway, she can't leave the city now, and it doesn't look like the city is very peaceful. It's safer for her to stay in the inn.

"Okay." He naturally had no objection to her staying in the inn obediently, but thinking of what happened last night, he was somewhat worried. He added, "I will be back before dark."

"Yeah." She smiled and nodded.

After having breakfast and packing a tray of buns, the two walked out of the bun shop.

However, as soon as he walked out of the door, he met the Taiyi Sect disciple from last night, Guo Yi.

He was planning to go to the clinic to see his fellow disciples who were unconscious, but he didn't expect to meet two people again so early in the morning.

Guo Yi stopped, glanced at Si He, then looked at Ning Ji, and said meaningfully: "What a coincidence."

Ning Ji glanced at him indifferently, without saying anything, and left with Si He.

Si He followed obediently, only to hear the man behind her say, "I hope we don't meet again in an occasion where we shouldn't."

What does he mean?

She was confused, but she did not stop. After following Ning Ji back to the inn, she did not ask him any more questions.

However, she was quite curious about how big a conflict Ning Ji had with the Taiyi Sect to have caused him to be so unwelcome now.

Before entering the guest room, Ning Ji handed her his dagger again and said, "Keep it for self-defense."

Si He took it with some surprise. Was he afraid that she would meet a 'thief' again?

"Thank you, cousin."

He said nothing more and went back to his guest room.

She also walked into the room, closed the door, and looked down at the dagger in her hand. This thing is also good for self-defense. After all, she is not very familiar with the self-defense skills now. In Ning Ji's eyes, it is probably just a mediocre skill.

And this is indeed the case.

After putting away the dagger, she placed the buns and the ink on her wrist on the table, and began to practice self-defense. Since her skills were not good enough, she would practice harder!

She diligently repeated the self-defense techniques taught by Ning Ji, and the wind whistled as she moved.

Momo lay quietly on the table, watching her practice, its long and slender tail swaying occasionally, looking very relaxed.

It was not until half an hour later that she stopped to rest for a while. However, as soon as she sat down, she heard noises coming from outside. It was Ning Ji who went out again.

She turned her head and looked through the door and window, vaguely seeing his figure walking by.

After a while, she withdrew her gaze, poured a glass of water, and took a sip thoughtfully.
