Rent Affair

Chapter 129
Ji Linyu didn't object to my words. After discussing with his people, we decided to speed up along the main road and try to find a village to live in before dark.

Xiaojun is still in charge of taking care of Xiaoying, and Ji Linyu and I are at the front.

We were just looking for things at the beginning, but now we have encountered so many things, it is beyond the scope of what I can bear, so I have to know who we are looking for and what benefits it will have for me, isn't Wan Jun? It can really be cured, and is there any way for Xiaoying's Guixin old man to make her demons age automatically?

"You don't need to ask me. I don't know anything. I only know that that thing is a ball, and Master said that as long as we get close to that thing, he can feel it. We just need to wait for Master's signal!" Ji Lin This is like a roundworm in my stomach, knowing everything I think.

I am at a loss for words, and for the person I want to save, he also said that the ghostly old man said before coming that Wanjun will be fine, but it may take some time for Xiaoying to get rid of the demons. After all, this thing is not just something that needs to be solved by outsiders.

"Okay, then thank you Old Man Guixin." What else can I say besides thank you now?Since I promised, I can't back down when encountering difficulties.

"Wait a minute." Ji Linyu stopped me when he saw that I was about to go to Xiaojun's side. I didn't know what he wanted to say, so I could only look at him.

But when I saw Ji Linyu's expression of hesitant to speak but didn't know what to say, I became anxious, so I simply patted him on the shoulder and said, "Just say what you want, hesitating like this Waste of time, you know?"

"I may know who the Taoist priest you met is, but maybe you don't want to know who it is?" Ji Linyu said, why would I not want to know who the Taoist priest was?Is this Taoist priest related to me?
"Why? Why do you think so?" I looked at Ji Linyu, probably my eyes could kill him several times now.

"Miss Xiaoying, the reason why she fell into a demon is actually related to this Taoist priest, but I am not very clear about the specifics. This is what the master told me unintentionally." Ji Linyu continued to walk forward after finishing speaking.

This is halfway through, so I'm going to stop talking. This is obviously to whet my appetite.

I pulled him, and although I didn't speak, I knew he must know what I wanted to say.

We just looked at each other like this, and after a while, Ji Linyu sighed and said, "Do you know that the reason why Xiaoying fell into a demon at the beginning was because she had been to a certain place?"

I shook my head, I really don’t know me, I still vaguely remember what kind of servant Xiaoying was when she was possessed by a heart demon, no matter what Taoism I used, I couldn’t solve that heart demon, in the end I had no choice but to give up , or I will sacrifice Xiaoying.

"The Taoist priest of Qingmen, you should know him!" Ji Linyu said the name, and my memory went back to the past in an instant.

How can I not know, isn't it they who told me about the demons?Could it be that one of the Taoist priests did it?
"Yes, it's what you think. No one knows the truth except the master. I just heard the master say that a Taoist priest in Qingmen wants to practice a spell that can make people change your own appearance. To protect himself, but he needs to defeat his own inner demons first, so he used sorcery to inspire everyone's inner demons, and this Xiaoying girl will..."

Ji Linyu didn't continue, but I can already imagine what's going on?
But why does Ji Linyu feel that that person is the Taoist priest that the rotting corpse said?
Just as I was about to ask, he said again: "Didn't you see a person who can change his appearance and body shape? Don't you think anyone can do this?"

I really overlooked this point. It seems that Ji Linyu is really careful to be a mayor.

After talking with him, I decided to find that thing because I must go back to the dense forest to find the Taoist. I had a hunch that this dense forest should be a place where he practiced secretly, and the orangutan was only used to guard that place. The corpse monster is also one of his bargaining chips. Why did I just think now that I should have killed the corpse monster long ago, so that he can't use it.

But it's too late to think about this now, it's better to think about how to find this thing and return to Fengdu, how to make these two girls get better, and how to get them to get along well.

After walking for more than an hour, Shangguan Yang, who opened the way ahead, said that there was a town.

We quickened our pace and arrived at the town that Shangguanyang mentioned in a short time. It was really a fairyland on earth with birds singing and cooking smoke. I felt very good, as if such a small town was specially prepared for us.

Ji Linyu told us to put away our weapons and put on our normal clothes before moving on. Our battle suits are specially processed by someone to deal with raptors and beasts. When ordinary people saw this, they thought we were special forces Come on, it would cause too much trouble for myself, I think Ji Linyu's approach is correct.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the town, we saw the name of the town, a strange town?

This is a bit too weird. Why is such a strange town called such a strange name? When I get close to this town, it is actually a village at best. There are only a hundred families in total. The houses are all made of wood. A paradise.

"Let's go in!" Ji Linyu opened the way ahead, and I let Xiaojun look at Xiaoying. I don't know why I didn't feel better when I came in. It seemed to be windy inside.

As soon as we walked a few steps, a person stopped us and said unfriendlyly: "Who are you, what are you doing in our ghost town?"

Ji Linyu said with a very polite Fufu body: "Hello, we are passing by here and want to stay here. I wonder if it is convenient for you?"

To be honest, hearing Ji Linyu's words made me feel bad. They made it clear that they didn't want us to go in, and even asked if it was convenient for them. Isn't this an excuse for others not to let us in?
"It's not convenient, please leave."

Let me just say, this man is very thin, I can't tell how old he is, but he shouldn't be very old. I walked up to him and gave him some money, and then I greeted him with a smile: "Brother, we are passing here. I have lived in the woods in front of me for several nights, tell the people in the village that we will give you money according to the current market price outside, let us stay for one night, and we will leave tomorrow morning."

After I finished speaking, the little brother looked at me, and then at the money in his hand, feeling a little embarrassed.

I continued to pursue the victory and continued: "Don't worry, we are not bad people, we are here to explore, it is not that one of our companions is still in a coma, please help me?" What I said is simple enough, that young man After thinking for a while, I said to go to the village head and tell us to wait a while. I saw that there was something going on, so I didn't continue to say anything.

After the young man left, Ji Linyu looked at me with admiration, and I said triumphantly: "You are the mayor, so you don't know how to get along with these people. You have to do this, and you have to be sincere, you see If you are an adjutant, how can people welcome you!" I said as I counted money.

Ji Linyu looked at me speechlessly for a moment, but didn't continue to speak, but his expression was enough to show that he didn't agree with what I said.

Of course, I don't have the time to argue so much with him here, anyway, it's useless to say more.

The young man came back within a few minutes, followed by an older man, who seemed to be the village chief.

"Hello, village chief." I spoke first, doesn't it seem that we are polite?
The village chief didn't say anything, he just looked us up and down, and then asked, "Are you here for an adventure?"

"Yes, I got lost. I finally found your village. I hope the village chief will accommodate me. I know that this area does not welcome outsiders, but we are really desperate..." I told us how miserable we are. Just say how miserable it is, and almost die without saying it.

The village head was a little moved, and even looked at us a little bit, let the young man lead us to the village, and introduced the customs of this village to me.

I have experienced some villages before, and I know that many remote villages like many villages are very weird, just like some villages in Miao Village, there are many things that need to be taboo, and strange towns need us to taboo, and even have to remember That is, after ten o'clock in the evening, you must not go out, and there must be no light.

Although I have doubts in my heart, but the village chief doesn't say anything, we are not suitable for asking, after all, this is a secret of other people's villages.

The village head found us the two closest families, and asked us to live separately. Xiaoying Xiaojun, Ji Linyu, I, and I lived in this house on the west side, and the remaining four people lived in the house on the east side. People, and the village chief's yard is behind, we ate at the village chief's house.

It seems that no outsider has been in this village for a long time. When we are eating, people in the village come to see us like watching a big show, and we are embarrassed to eat.

The village chief seemed to have seen our expressions, so he asked the villagers to go back. After the villagers left, the village chief said embarrassedly: "Our village has never been visited by outsiders for so many years, so don't be offended."

"It's okay, we still have to thank you, the village chief." I chatted with the village chief and found out that this village is located in the northernmost part of Fengdu.

I was taken aback when I heard this answer. We were clearly going by plane, and I remember the direction very clearly. It was the westernmost point of Fengdu. How come we came to the northernmost point now? Is it because a dense forest sent us to the farthest point? Have we reached the furthest point from our destination?
"What's wrong with you?" Ji Linyu suddenly asked me when I was distracted.
