Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 43 Probing
"Miss Xiaoxuan, we will be neighbors from now on. Don't worry, on my territory, I will cover you. The Qingsang River will be yours in the future, and no one can take it away." Seeing Wang Lin leave, the land god smiled Said to Nie Xiaoxuan.

"Thank you, Lord of the Land!" Nie Xiaoxuan was smart, how could she not know that the God of Land's original intention was to make herself a thug, so Yingying bowed, turned and threw herself into the Qingsang River.

"Master Lin, this is a letter from your sister." The next day, Wang Lin was studying in the study, and a man in the village handed Wang Lin a letter.In this world, official post stations also operate letter business. They charge money for sending letters according to the distance. Sending a letter from the capital to Guobei County costs ten Wen. Ordinary people need three Wen to ask someone to write a letter, so for For ordinary civilian families, it is extremely expensive to send a letter.

Wang Lin already knew that she had a sister of the same mother, and from Aunt Cui's rambling words, Wang Lin also knew that after her mother passed away, she was brought up by her sister who was ten years older than herself.Like a hen protecting its chicks, it grows up under the disgust and unkindness of the mistress Wang.

Wang Lin opened the letter, the meaning of the letter was that sister Wang Zhi missed Wang Lin very much, and heard that Wang Lin was going to Jinhua Mansion to participate in the government examination this time, so Wang Lin must go to her to comfort her lovesickness. bitter.

"Hey!" Wang Lin sighed. Although she had never faced this sister and had no feelings at all, maybe it was the instinctive reaction of this body, maybe it was this kind of sister who hit the soft part of Wang Lin's heart, reminding Wang Lin My mother in the previous life, when I was just disabled, no matter it was windy or rainy, whether it was going to the toilet or washing, my mother always held herself on her back without hesitation. That thin body seemed to contain Infinite strength, hard work, always with a warm smile on her face, bowing her head and keeping busy, I have never seen her say that she is tired and bitter.Unconsciously, Wang Lin burst into tears, shook hands secretly, and went to visit her sister's house after the exam.

According to the plan, he will arrive at Jinhua Mansion half a month before the government examination, take the recommendation letter from the Guobei County Government to register at the Jinhua Mansion School Office, and then prepare to participate in the annual government examination.Therefore, in six days at most, Wang Lin will leave for Jinhua Mansion.After all, the journey will take six or seven days.

Wang Lin has no interest in the road to the imperial examinations. As for the ruling party, it is inevitable that she will have to work hard on the paperwork. It is better to fight the sword and fight the rivers and lakes, be happy and carefree, and be free and easy. The past life was too hard, and this life should be free and easy.But to obtain the status of a scholar, this is Wang Lin's purpose. After all, the system of this world is relatively complete, with strict population management, and having a status of a scholar makes it easier to travel in the Xia Kingdom.

But whether she can pass the exam, Wang Lin has no idea. After all, she came to this world for a very short period of time. Although she studied hard for a while, the time was too short, and she relied on the knowledge system of her previous life. She didn't know if it would work in this world.However, Wang Lin didn't really care about it, as long as she fought for it, it wouldn't be a big problem if she didn't pass the exam, so there wasn't much psychological pressure.

The general's tomb that the land god mentioned was in Qingsang Mountain, thirty miles away from Qingsang Village. Wang Lin set out from Qingsang Village at dusk and came here when night fell.The reason for choosing to be at night is mainly because Nie Xiaoxuan is still a body of true yin and cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time, and the land god Wang Jikang is also a body of true yin. Time's of exposure in the sun.

"Boy, the tomb of this general is a bit old. It is said that he was a general who founded the country. He fought against the barbarians in the south. When he was seriously injured, he said: 'The general died in a hundred battles. Why should he go back to his hometown and guard the border as a ghost? According to his wishes, his subordinates buried him on the spot. But it is said that the general was not the one who died at that time, but the monument was erected in the name of the general. So where There are at least thousands of soldiers buried in the depression." Along the rugged mountain road of Qingsang Mountain, they came to a mountain peak, and the land god Wang Jikang pointed to the depression road on the back of the mountain.

Wang Lin stood on the mountainside in the distance and observed it carefully. She was a little surprised. In her previous life, her grandfather showed the geomantic omen of the four townships and eight miles, so Wang Lin also had a little understanding of the geomantic terrain.This terrain is like a coffin, surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and a narrow entrance faces the stream below the mountain stream on one side, which is the upper reaches of the Qingsang River, so there must be little sunlight here, and the wind gathers shade, and the gathered shade Qi is difficult to dissipate, it is not a good place.

"Old Ancestor, have you ever entered this place?" Wang Lin asked.

"No, only the exit at the edge is my God's Domain, and it's not going any further. Once beyond the boundary, my escaping technique will be invalid, so, ahem." The God of Land continued to cover up his timidity : "However, it's not a day or two since this place has ghost spirits. Back then, I met the mountain god of Qingsang Mountain and reminded him vaguely. According to him, how can gods of our generation be useless soldiers? I doubt He recruited the ghosts in this place as mountain ghosts to patrol the mountains on his behalf. You know, those mountain gods are higher than our land gods, and their eyes are higher than the top. We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years after that time. For a while, I found that the ghostly aura was overflowing here, and it was out of control. I suspected that the mountain god was gone, otherwise, he would not have allowed the ghostly aura here to overflow and infect the forest."

After being reminded by the God of the Land, Wang Lin gathered her Qi Watching Technique to observe, and found that the gray-black ghost mist overflowed from this mountain depression, infecting all directions, and the plants within a hundred meters around it dried up a lot. This was not because of the cold and dry winter. It is the color of corruption that appears after complete death.

"Old Ancestor, you are not kind!" Wang Lin said with a slight smile.At this time, Wang Lin had already guessed that there was a mountain god suppressing here before, so the land god naturally didn't need to worry about it, but the ghost aura began to overflow here, and it had already infected the area controlled by the land god. Back, if not cleared, there will be endless troubles in the future.

"Ahem, a gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands. My ancestor, I disdain to be as knowledgeable as these little devils. It is only natural for my descendants to suffer from them. Moreover, this place is less than [-] miles away from Qingsang Village. If I let it continue to develop, I am afraid the consequences will be unimaginable. , your father, brother and relatives are all in the village." Land God Wang Jikang said with a natural look.

"Well, we must do what we can. If it is impossible, I would rather beg my father to move. However, you can't move, ancestor." Wang Lin said with a smile.

"You unfilial son, how dare you make such a bad move." The land stomped his feet angrily.

"This is not a bad policy, it is a good policy. Isn't it natural for a gentleman to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages." Wang Lin said.

"Boy, you have to try it. Surrender without a fight is not what I did!" The land god said impassionedly, and even secretly glanced at Wang Lin while speaking.
