"Master Hu, this child's situation is a little special. Unlike ordinary spirits, it is not convenient for her to be reborn. She was entrusted by the immortals to live here." After Philgodette taught Xiao Ming a lesson, she spoke gently to Hu Tao who was eager to try.
Hu Tao understood Philgodette's hint, turned to look at Xiao Ming, a little unwilling, and tried to ask a question.
"Perhaps this hall master can give it a try... for free."
Filgodette smiled without saying anything and just looked at Walnut quietly.
Kurumi sighed and took the goma back.
"Everyone, I still want to thank you for your willingness to help Yan Xiao. I told him that the matter has been resolved and asked him to cook a delicious meal for everyone. It's free. Also, please don't tell Yan Xiao about Xiao Ming's existence, otherwise he will apply for resignation."
Upon hearing this, Xingqiu wanted to wave his hand to refuse the dinner. He didn't want to receive anything without doing anything. Since he didn't help this time, he didn't want to get it for free.
Walnut was the first to speak.
"Boiled fish! I want to eat boiled fish! With shrimp dumplings, it tastes great. I'll go down and tell him!"
Afterwards, Hu Tao stayed away from this place that made her sad.
The greatest pain is that happiness is right in front of you but you cannot grasp it. In this case, out of sight, out of mind.
Xingqiu couldn't say anything else and followed reluctantly.
Only Lin Ye, Philgodette and Xiao Ming, who had not yet disappeared, were left on the rooftop balcony.
Xiao Ming is indeed special. The Demon-Subduing Seal was needed to find her. Moreover, the ghost uncle in Qingce Manor also mentioned Xiao Ming when he talked about ghost stories.
Ghosts are not scary. What is scary are baby ghosts. They die at a young age, mostly by accident.
"Master Lin Ye, do you have anything else to ask Xiao Ming?" Philgodette said with a smile.
Lin Ye knew that the "young master" that Filgodette was referring to was the young master of the Lin family. Lin Ye was not surprised that Filgodette knew his identity in Liyue Port.
Lin Ye behaves in a low-key manner. He used to stay at home to accompany Mu Xiaojin. In Liyue Harbor, apart from the residents near the Lin family, not many people know that he is the son of Lord Dan'an. At most, they think that Lin Ye is handsome and well-dressed, and guess that he has a good family background.
However, he caught Ningguang's eye, and Ningguang would also pass on some information about him to Filgodette.
"It's over. I don't have anything to ask Xiao Ming."
Lin Ye shook his head. He had no intention of asking about Xiao Ming's past. Xiao lived in Wangshu Inn and it was impossible for him not to have seen Xiao Ming. Even he, the Great Demon Subduer, didn't care, so Lin Ye thought it would be better for him to meddle in other people's business.
Ask again when you have the ability.
The reason why Lin Ye didn't leave immediately was that when he looked back on the whole incident, he always felt that he had missed something, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't figure it out.
Just like what Captain Qin said, you can’t look for something immediately. Don’t pay attention to it. Sometimes you will accidentally find it in a corner.
Since the system says the mission is accomplished, well, let's do it.
At this time, Xiao Ming walked behind Lin Ye and wanted to reach out and pull Lin Ye's sleeve, but stopped. She was a spirit and it was impossible for her to touch a physical body. Xiao Ming was not Guru and signed the contract.
"Big brother, how do you know my name?"
Lin Ye heard the voice behind him, turned around, squatted down and spoke softly.
"Big brother has his own way."
Just put it here.
Xiao Ming didn't care. She raised her head, stared at Lin Ye, smiled sweetly, and asked.
"Big brother, do you want to play with Xiao Ming?"
Gulu: !!
Linye:......
Even though it was true, the conversation, which sounded like something out of a horror movie, made Lin Ye feel a little chilly.
Lin Ye smiled and said with a grin.
"Big brother also wants to play with Xiao Ming, but big brother has an important mission and can't stay in the inn all the time, so he can't play with Xiao Ming."
"Hmm..." Xiao Ming looked a little lost. She really wanted to keep this big brother who knew her name and was not afraid of her by her side forever and play with her.
But Philgodette taught Xiao Ming that children should not be willful.
Xiao Ming pouted and spoke coquettishly to Lin Ye.
"Then big brother, after you complete the task, you must come and play with Xiao Ming."
“Yes!” Lin Ye showed the gentle and sunny smile of the elder brother of the Lin family, “I’ll call Sister Hu Tao over. Sister Hu Tao is the girl next to me just now. The three of us will play together. I’m sure Sister Hu Tao will happily agree.”
Xiao Ming:……
As a ghost with the seventh sense, Xiao Ming always felt that there was something wrong with the way the black-haired sister with twin ponytails looked at her, and she was a little scared.
Lin Ye, with Zun Xin's physique, has awakened some of his talents. Even though he is suppressed by the immortal treasures, ghosts and monsters inexplicably feel a liking for him when they approach Lin Ye. This is also the reason why Xiao Ming gets close to Lin Ye when he meets him for the first time.
After making an agreement with the no longer happy Xiao Ming, Lin Ye and Philgodette looked at each other, and then he went downstairs to prepare for dinner.
I haven’t had dinner yet.
Philgodette silently looked at Lin Ye's back as he walked down the stairs and listened to the conversation between Xiao Ming and Lin Ye. He knew of Xiao Ming's existence.
It’s just like what Lady Ningguang said, he’s a mysterious guy.
"When you are bored, you can play with Awei and Wangcai. They can see you. Don't pretend to be a deceased person and scare people or guests."
"Other people may not be happy to see their deceased loved ones. Be careful that one day a passing exorcist might kidnap you." Philgodette said to Xiao Ming, holding the date stick in hand.
Xiao Ming was frightened, and promised with a depressed face, speaking a little aggrievedly.
"Xiao Ming won't scare people anymore. But, Xiao Ming didn't pretend to be a dead person. It was obviously the elder sister who scared the uncle first."
Filgodette tilted her head.
…………
After getting Hu Tao's assurance, Yan Xiao was completely relieved. In order to repay Lin Ye and the others, he cooked a table of delicious food. The delicious smell made the others open their eyes wide, and even the drunk merchant who was eager to save his son was awakened by his greed.
I won’t go into details about what happened next, but the next day, Lin Ye and Xing Qiu were woken up by Hu Tao knocking on the door, and they gathered together downstairs at the inn.
After Fan Hai tidied himself up, he nodded with satisfaction, whipped his horse, and rode towards Ao Zang Mountain with everyone.
…………
Chapter 64: The Hazy Sentiment Period
Speaking of Ao Zang Mountain, ever since the great war between gods and demons, there have been frequent rumors of immortals appearing in the world, and every year it attracts a large number of people seeking immortals and asking for advice.
The villagers of Luoluo Village, who have lived at the foot of Ao Zang Mountain for generations, generally believe that the immortal living in seclusion in the mountains is a fairy with an ethereal figure and is not tainted by the dust. His most prominent feature is his white hair.
A characteristic of Liyue is that the nation is obsessed with white hair. Maybe the origin of this is that Geo King likes white hair?
But this is the latest version of the legend.
In the previous version, the rescued child said that the immortal was a very big bird.
Liuyunjiefeng Zhenjun: How dare you! !
No matter what the true appearance of the immortal in the mountains is, it is actually not important. Bragging about the immortal's magical powers, such as showing his power, saving people from fire and water, and bestowing blessings on people, is just a tea after dinner.
After all, Luoluo Village does not survive on the blessings from the immortals, but relies on farming, collecting herbs, weaving and other means to support themselves.
Lin Ye and his men did not rush into the mountains, but joined up with two Qianyan soldiers stationed in Luoluo Village. At the same time, only seven people disguised themselves as passing merchants, except for Fan Haiwai's Qianyan soldiers who hid in a forest.
Seven people entering the village was not too unusual for a small village of a hundred households. Some bored children watched from a distance.
It was morning when we arrived. Two middle-aged Qianyan soldiers were standing outside the village waiting, including the elderly village chief.
"So it's you, kid. Let me introduce you. This is the village chief of Luoluo Village. Everyone calls him Uncle Zhang."
"Uncle Zhang, this is the leader, Fan Hai, who is here to help us go into the mountains and suppress the bandits."
The two middle-aged Qianyan soldiers, one with a stubbled chin, spoke first, introducing each other as a bridge.
Uncle Zhang looked at Fan Hai's muscular body and nodded with satisfaction. This young man was strong, but he roughly checked the number of people this time, frowned and said worriedly.
“Are there too few people?”
Besides, there are two girls. Why should they be involved in such a dangerous task as going into the mountains to suppress bandits? The old village chief thought.
Hu Tao was in the crowd, her divine eyes were blocked, and Zhang Bo couldn't see it.
The reason why the old village chief is the old village chief is because he knows that some things cannot be said openly, so he did not say them. Moreover, Qianyan Army is not stupid, and these two girls may have extraordinary qualities.
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhang, we still have 19 comrades," Fan Hai said confidently, "and this time we have a hero from Liyue Harbor, a righteous one..."
"Here!" Lin Ye first casually mixed in with the crowd to make up the numbers, but when he heard Fan Hai mention him, he hurriedly shouted, scaring everyone.
Walnut covered her mouth to stifle laughter.
When Lin Ye received the silk banner, Fan Hai was also there. He admired Lin Ye very much, especially when he heard that Lin Ye's goal was to become a partner of justice.
In fact, during the breaks along the way, Fan Hai would also look for Lin Ye, shyly but curiously asking Lin Ye about the strange events at Tianheng Mountain and how they defeated the enemy.
He seems to be a little fan of Justice Partners.
Uncle Zhang is old, and he looked at Lin Ye with lingering fear, thinking that this young man is really energetic.
"He is Lin Ye who is assisting us this time. He once helped Qianyan Army solve a big problem and he is very powerful." Fan Hai wondered why Lin Ye suddenly spoke, but business was important, so Fan Hai did not pay too much attention to it. Instead, he carefully introduced him to the village chief and the two Qianyan Army soldiers.
Two middle-aged Qianyan soldiers, one named Song Xingyu and the other named Wu Xiongfei.
The one with the hard stubble is Wu Xiongfei, who is middle-aged and looks greasy. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Ye.
The news that Lin Ye resolved the Tianheng Mountain incident was only widely known within the Qianyan Army in Liyue Harbor. The Qianyan Army outside Liyue Harbor did not know about it, but his former comrades said that this young man was a hero, which naturally attracted the attention of the old guard.
As for her appearance, I have to say that she is a little bit better than I was back then. If I had had that little bit more, I wouldn't have given up the military beauty to someone else.
After all, Wu Xiongfei has been in Qianyan Army for more than 20 years, so he has his own way of judging people. Lin Ye is thin, but has a strong aura. It is hard to ignore him in the crowd. But Wu Xiongfei feels that he looks familiar.
This kind of person's ability cannot be judged by appearance alone; one needs to see him in real combat to see how capable he is.
However, Wu Xiongfei also saw the Eye of God on Lin Ye's waist.
Well, the owner of the Eye of God, unless the God happened to be blind for a while when he was looking at people and just found someone randomly to give it to them, the level of the owner of the Eye of God is not bad.
Zhang Bo also saw that the object on Lin Ye's waist was the Eye of God. He was instantly convinced and asked everyone to go to the house prepared by the village to rest.
A group of children were driven away by Zhang Bo. They did not understand the content of the conversation, but they remembered that Lin Ye was a hero.
Just like the kids in Liyue Harbor who thought the teleportation anchor was a magic circle to summon great heroes, the kids in Luoluo Village also aspired to be heroes and glanced at Lin Ye a few more times before leaving.
This made Lin Ye feel confused.
Is it because he is so handsome that he can even attract little boys?
Fan Hai, Song Xingyu, and Wu Xiongfei, as representatives of the Qianyan Army, brought the merchant with the ransom, as well as Lin Ye and five other recruits, plus Zhang Bo, a total of ten people squeezed into one room, barely able to fit.
The topic of the conversation was naturally how to save people and suppress bandits.
The businessman wanted to rescue his son immediately.
In fact, there are still three days before the ransom is due, so there is plenty of time.
Fan Hai, however, thought that he could use the opportunity of paying the ransom to set up an ambush. Before that, it would be best to find the treasure-stealing group's lair, launch a sneak attack at night, and catch them all in one fell swoop.
Wu Xiongfei smiled bitterly when he heard this.
"I've been here for two or three years, and I've dealt with the treasure-stealing gang. At first, I knew where the thieves were hiding, but now I don't know where they've moved to. A cunning rabbit has three burrows."
"A month or two ago, a man with more beard than me appeared out of nowhere. The first time I saw him, he was a follower, but the second time, he became the second in command of the treasure-stealing group. This man is very cunning, maybe he was the one who came up with the idea."
After hearing this, Lin Ye looked calm, but he felt guilty inside.
Now, Lin Ye is going to put all his effort into acting.
Hu Tao secretly observed Lin Ye's reaction, but didn't find anything. She couldn't help wondering, was she wrong?
Xingqiu heard Wu Xiongfei's words and said, "This second in command has a nickname called Hu Zha Fei in Liyue Port. Is he still alive now?"
"Hu Zha Fei? Hahahaha, as the old saying goes, there are wrong names but no wrong nicknames. Hu Zha Fei? Hahaha..." Wu Xiongfei was laughed at.
After a while, Wu Xiongfei answered Xingqiu's question.
"I don't know about that. It's very dangerous to enter the mountains recently. No one has entered since we reported to Liyue Harbor, except for some people who refused to listen to our advice."
The businessman was furious when he heard this, but his reason prevented him from speaking.
After getting the answer, Xingqiu thought that seeing is believing, hearing is not, so he decided to go and see for himself.
Next, we discussed the general countermeasures.
Before agreeing on the ransom, they sent a few people to pretend to be from Xiuxian Dao, conduct a sting operation, and capture the robbers to interrogate them about the location of their lair.
