New and dark light years

Chapter 97 I have my own way
Looking at the two of them, Ding Yingqiu had a strange expression on his face, seeming somewhat close, yet also somewhat... defensive.

Su Huafang waved his hand. "What family background? I'm just a commoner with a bit of luck. When I was young, I traveled all over the country and made many friends. I've heard of this term, but I don't know the specific circumstances."

Ding Yingqiu chuckled and said, "I have also heard of the name of Mr. Touxiang."

Su Huafang was suddenly embarrassed.

The others chuckled.

Ding Yingqiu then looked at Li Lin and asked, "What does Li Xunshou think of cultivating immortals?"

"After swallowing a golden pill, my life is decided by me, not by God?"

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him in surprise.

Ding Yingqiu said with a rather intriguing expression, "The Li Xunshu family is truly... quite domineering."

Li Lin asked with a smile, "What about Ding Xunshu's family?"

"Cultivate both the body and soul, and achieve immortality."

After listening to it, everyone still felt that Li Lin’s description was more encouraging.

Ding Yingqiu continued, "According to the records in my family's collection, more than two hundred years ago, during the time of our dynasty's Taizu, an immortal appeared in the world, but later disappeared for unknown reasons."

Having said that, Ding Yingqiu glanced at Li Lin, and seeing that he had no intention of "objecting", he continued speaking.

"But the immortals have left their legacy in various places, many immortal arts and many magical instruments. If you can obtain one of them, even if you can't achieve immortality, you can still gain great supernatural powers."

Su Huafang and others were so angry when they heard this that they couldn't wait to get these things.

But Li Lin was very calm.

Bai Liwei couldn't help but ask: "What can we get?"

Ding Yingqiu said: "As far as I know, there is nothing too powerful in the immortal's remains. After you get it, I can pay a large amount of silver, or even some of our Ding family's secrets, as a reward."

Everyone nodded.

Bai Liwei couldn't help but say, "I'm willing to lend a hand to Patrol Officer Ding."

"I'm willing too." Zhao Hao said.

Su Huafang didn't say anything, but looked at Li Lin.

The others also turned their eyes to Li Lin, waiting for his answer.

"I'll let it go." Li Lin said with a slight smile.

He is a very cautious person. Regardless of whether immortals exist or not, these so-called "immortal arts", "magic tools" and other things are the objects of competition among the world.

The Soul Hunter is indeed not an ordinary person, but he is just a Soul Hunter who has just entered the ninth rank. Why should he "take" these things?

It’s better to lay a solid foundation for yourself first.

Besides, if I knew this news by myself, I could explore it slowly.

But the Ding family knew... and later the people who helped Ding Yingqiu would also know. With so many people talking, it would be easy for this matter to spread.

By then, if other masters come to snatch it away, he won’t be able to deal with them.

"What a pity." Ding Yingqiu said with a smile.

"Then I'll go first, you guys chat."

After saying that, Li Lin stood up and left.

Su Huafang wanted to follow Li Lin, but then he gave up the idea.

He is not young anymore, in his fifties, and has reached the stage of "fear of death".

Life is so beautiful, he wants to live a few more years, preferably forever.

Li Lin put the matter behind him and returned home.

The days that followed were ordinary, nothing more than cultivation, cultivation, and more cultivation.

Six more days passed like this.

The county magistrate Huang Yan sent someone to invite him to the county government office.

Also there were Yan Han, Bai Yunfei and Bai Bufan.

Huang Yan, dressed in his official uniform, said helplessly, "Something happened in Beiliu County recently. Logically, the local spirit hunters should have handled it, but strangely, all the spirit hunters there have disappeared. So the county magistrate of Beiliu County asked me for help."

Everyone listened quietly. "I have a good relationship with the Beiliu County Magistrate, so it's hard to refuse. Besides, if something serious happens in Beiliu County and the people are outraged, then Yulin County won't be any better off. So I wanted to send someone over to check it out. But Su, Zhao, and Ding weren't there."

At this time, Bai Bufan stepped forward and said, "Uncle and Su Xunshu, Zhao Xunshu, and Ding Xunshu are out on important matters. He said that if anything comes up, I can handle it."

"You?" Huang Yan looked at Bai Bufan and sighed, "You've only been in this business for half a year. How are you going to handle this?"

"I've handled many things with my uncle, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Huang Yan was silent for a moment, then looked at Li Lin. "Li Xunshou, I'm sorry to bother you this time. Take Bai Xunshou and Zhao Xunshou with you to Beiliu County to check out the situation. Remember, we're just going to take a look. If you can help, then help. If you can't, then retreat immediately and I'll find another way."

"As you command." Li Lin clasped his fists.

Huang Yan was silent for a while, then said, "Be careful."

"I'll pay attention."

After coming out of the county government office, Zhao Xiaohu jumped up excitedly: "Brother Lin, I can finally go on an errand."

Li Lin shook his head helplessly: "How's your Yin-nourishing technique going?"

"Not bad." Zhao Xiaohu said with a smile: "It feels quite easy."

"Really? Let me see."

Li Lin took Zhao Xiaohu's pulse again.

Then he exclaimed in surprise: "You actually managed it."

At this time, there was indeed a trace of Yin energy in Zhao Xiaohu's body.

He remembered teaching Zhao Xiaohu the Yin-nourishing method only half a month ago. Being able to achieve this speed was already quite good, better than most people.

But compared with Li Lin, there is still a big gap.

"When the envoy comes back, I'll teach you the Thunderfall Curse."

Zhao Xiaohu nodded excitedly.

"Have you been to brothels recently?"

Zhao Xiaohu shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, it's very expensive."

"Then let's get ready." Li Lin looked at the sky and said, "We'll set out at noon. If we ride horses, we can reach Beiliu County before dusk."

The two left immediately.

Li Lin also returned home and took away the old things he brought with him when he went out... After thinking about it, he also put the mask into the bag.

Half an hour later, the three men gathered in the barracks of the county government office, borrowed war horses, and left the county.

The three of them were in a hurry to get on with their journey and didn't communicate much along the way. Then in the evening, they arrived at the city wall of Beiliu County.

They presented the white jade tablets, which immediately caused the city guards to complain: "The inspectors have finally arrived. Our county magistrate is extremely worried. You should go to the county government office to see him."

Li Lin and the other two immediately rushed to the county government office. As soon as they explained their identities, the bailiffs led them to the court.

There was a man wearing the official uniform of a county magistrate, walking back and forth with his hands behind his back.

He saw Li Lin and the other two coming in from the corner of his eye, so he immediately came over and said with surprise, "Are you the spirit hunters sent by Yulin County?"

"Yes." Li Lin nodded.

County Magistrate Ma said anxiously, "Great! You're finally here. Please help me find the spirit hunters in our county. They've all disappeared. They've been missing for three days."

Ok?
"Didn't you organize any manpower to search?"

"No, the yamen runners don't dare to move." County Magistrate Ma sighed. "More than a month ago, a ruthless person came to the county, killed seven local spirit hunters and over twenty yamen runners, and then fled. Now the yamen runners are so scared that they dare not leave the county."

Speaking of the evil man, Li Lin remembered that the man had indeed said before that he had caused trouble in Beiliu County.

I didn't expect that it was true and not a bluff.

"Ma County Master, it's already night time and it's dangerous outside the city. We'll search tomorrow."

County Magistrate Ma nodded and said, "That makes sense. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Tonight, please rest at the county post."

The three men were led by yamen runners to an inn near the county government office and were given a very sumptuous dinner.

Zhao Xiaohu was still able to speak while wolfing down his food: "Brother Lin, how are we going to find someone tomorrow?"

"I have my own way."
