The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character
Chapter 173 My Roommate is Having a Secret (17)
Three hours later, it started to drizzle.
Lin Jingyi opened his eyes. His injuries had healed considerably under the nourishment of spiritual energy, but he could no longer wear his clothes.
After making a hand seal and entering the boulder, although there was still some yin energy inside, once the ghosts were eliminated, the yin energy would dissipate soon.
Gold and silver jewelry were found everywhere in the tomb.
After finding no ghosts, Lin Jingyi left the tomb without touching the burial objects inside.
As dawn broke, Lin Jingyi changed his clothes, sent a message to Ming Chen, and returned to Li Lian's house.
"Cheng Xue, where have you been?" Li Lian asked anxiously as she sat on the bed.
Holding her phone, her eyes slightly red, she looked at Lin Jingyi who had walked through the wall, her tone filled with deep worry.
"It's nothing, I just felt some yin energy fluctuations outside, let's go out and take a look."
Seeing that everyone was alright, Li Lian relaxed, but upon hearing the faint ghostly aura, her heart quickly tightened again, "Could it be a ghost?"
“It was probably just a passing ghost, it’s already gone. You have the amulet I gave you, you’ll be fine.” Lin Jingyi lay back down on the bed: “Go to sleep, it’s not dawn yet.”
Lin Jingyi yawned as he spoke, got into bed, lay down, and closed his eyes to cultivate.
Looking at the 'sleeping' Lin Jingyi, Li Lian recalled that when she called Cheng Xue, she kept getting told that the service area was not available, and she felt that things might not be as simple as she said.
She heard a huge explosion coming from the back mountain...
Trusting Lin Jingyi, Li Lian stopped thinking about it; it would be almost dawn in about an hour.
Two hours later, Lin Jingyi got up and made breakfast with Li Lian. After breakfast, Lin Jingyi received a call from Ming Chen.
Lin Jingyi sent Mingchen his location and waited for Mingchen's arrival.
"Is Master Mingchen coming?" Li Lian asked in surprise, glancing at the screen of Lin Jingyi's phone.
If Master Mingchen were to come, things wouldn't be so simple, and Li Lian couldn't help but worry.
"Yes, don't worry, I've already taken care of the matter. There are still some things I can't explain, and I need the mage's help."
Li Lian nodded thoughtfully, "Where are you going?"
"Let's go to the back mountain." Seeing that Li Lian was no longer worried, Lin Jingyi said truthfully.
"I want to go too." Li Lian recalled that she seemed to have started having the kind of dream after returning from the back mountain during the summer vacation, and that the man might have started to entangle her from there.
Just then, Li's mother came in from outside and, hearing her daughter's words, asked in confusion, "Where are you going?"
"Auntie, Xiaolian said she wants to accompany me for a walk around the village," Lin Jingyi quickly explained.
Li's mother smiled and put the bucket in the kitchen. "She should go." Then she turned to Li Lian and said, "Lian, take good care of Xue."
"Yes." Li Lian nodded happily.
Lin Jingyi was also helpless. He hadn't planned to bring Li Lian along, but now he had no choice.
After Mingchen arrived at the village entrance, Lin Jingyi pulled Li Lian out of the house.
"Benefactor Cheng, Benefactor Li," Ming Chen greeted Lin Jingyi and the other person.
"Greetings, Master. And who are these two?" Lin Jingyi asked, looking at the man and woman behind Ming Chen.
"These two are members of a special national department, Fu Wen and Lu Rui." After saying that, he introduced Lin Jingyi and Lu Rui to Fu Wen and Lu Rui.
After exchanging pleasantries, Lin Jingyi led the four of them into the back mountain.
Half an hour later, the group arrived in front of the boulder.
"Miss Cheng, is this the tomb you mentioned?" Lu Rui asked Lin Jingyi, pointing to the boulder.
Lin Jingyi nodded: "The tomb is inside the boulder."
He then took out four talismans and handed them to the four people: "Take these talismans and I'll take you inside."
After distributing the talismans, Lin Jingyi made hand seals and used his spiritual power to envelop the four people, leading them into the tomb entrance.
"Miss Cheng, what kind of talisman is this? It's so powerful!" Fu Wen exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the talisman paper that had turned to ashes in her hand.
"I drew this by chance, and it doesn't have a name yet..."
Lin Jingyi only wanted to use the talisman as an excuse to bring the others in with his spiritual power. He just grabbed the talisman randomly and could only use it as a pretext for now.
“Ms. Cheng, on behalf of the organization, I sincerely invite you to join us. The country needs talents like you.” Lu Rui took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Lin Jingyi.
"Our organization offers excellent benefits, with a monthly salary of 100,000 yuan, plus five social insurances and one housing fund, making us state public servants..."
Lu Rui began to give a long and detailed introduction, and Fu Wen chimed in with agreement.
"Let me think about it. Let's take care of business first."
"Okay, think it over carefully."
The yin energy inside the tomb had not dissipated, and although there was no wind, it was extremely cold.
Walking down from the entrance, there was a narrow passageway. Lin Jingyi led the group straight to Nie Juntao's coffin.
Since entering the tomb, Li Lian felt inexplicably uneasy and could only cling tightly to Lin Jingyi.
Seeing the two coffins placed in the center of the tomb made him even more uneasy.
“There’s an empty one.” Lu Rui looked at the empty coffin and then reached out to push the one next to it that had a lid.
As the sound of wooden planks rubbing together rang out, the lid of another coffin was opened, and the group peered closer to take a look.
A woman lay in the coffin, dressed in a red wedding gown. Her body was incorruptible, as if she were asleep.
But at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the woman's appearance in the coffin, and then they turned to look at Li Lian...
Upon seeing the woman's appearance in the coffin, Li Lian staggered backward, her face filled with disbelief... The woman looked exactly like her!
"Li Lian, this is just a coincidence. Nie Juntao only started bothering you because of your appearance," Lin Jingyi said, helping Li Lian up and comforting her.
Li Lian, who was still wondering what her relationship was with the woman in the coffin, understood instantly upon hearing the voice.
It was all just a coincidence, but for some reason she still felt uneasy.
"Okay." Li Lian nodded in agreement.
When they went to look at the female corpse again, it was rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a few minutes later only a skeleton remained.
Li Lian felt nauseous just looking at it.
"The danger here has passed. Let's hand over the contents to the state and leave now."
Li Lian looked unwell. Lin Jingyi had already confirmed what he said with Lu Rui and the others, so he wanted to take Li Lian away.
"Okay." Ming Chen nodded and called Fu Wen to leave together.
After leaving, Lu Wen and the other person parted ways with Ming Chen. Lin Jing also thought that Ming Chen was going to leave as well, but unexpectedly, he stayed as well.
"Benefactor Cheng, may I speak with you privately?"
Li Lian was still holding Lin Jingyi's arm, so Ming Chen couldn't talk to Lin Jingyi alone and could only ask.
Lin Jingyi said softly to Li Lian, "Li Lian, you go back first, I'll go back in a bit."
"can."
Watching Li Lian's departing figure until it disappeared, Ming Chen looked around and, seeing that no one was around, knelt down before Lin Jingyi.
"Please, Miss Cheng, accept me as your apprentice!"
Lin Jingyi remained calm. Ever since she used spiritual energy to draw talismans at the temple, she had noticed Mingchen's desire for power.
"Get up first." Lin Jingyi wanted to help Ming Chen up. Although the other party tried to get up, Lin Jingyi, as a cultivator, lifted him up with a little effort.
