Ye Qiuhan's expression became awkward. She coughed and said in a very small voice, "Yes..."
Well, where did you get the confidence to say that just now? I thought you, a silly girl, finally had some initiative, but in the end you are still the plaything of the saint. Tsk.
"This spiritual skill can't be learned from anyone else. Only she knows it. What can I do?" Ye Qiuhan slapped her thigh hard. She had no other choice.
The saint girl is the Nine Tribulations Venerable. The most powerful wood cultivator Ye Qiuhan can meet is this future self.
She didn't want to learn from the Saint, but did she have a choice? The Saint forced her to stay up late to make up lessons at night, and Ye Qiuhan was also desperate.
Moreover, the things taught by the Saint Maiden were indeed useful. Ye Qiuhan could only endure the pain and happiness like this.
"That really can't be helped. I forgive you."
"What do you mean you forgive me? Did I do anything wrong?" Ye Qiuhan's eyes widened. She had never seen such a shameless person!
"It's not important. Let's think about this little girl now." Qian Lin pointed at the little girl who was sitting on the back of the vine elephant, not daring to move.
This person is the one they need to discuss, not the useless saint.
"What do you mean, just tell her directly about her father?" Qian Lin asked in a low voice.
Ye Qiuhan shook her head. She felt that she should be more tactful. This little girl had just seen her mother being killed by the evil spirit, so she must be very sensitive now. It would be better not to provoke her.
If you tell this little girl now that your father has committed a serious crime and is likely to be sentenced to death, I'm afraid she will collapse immediately.
Her mother just passed away today, and now you tell her that her father is going to die too. What kind of suffering is this in the world?
"Why don't we keep it a secret for now?" Ye Qiuhan put forward his idea.
Qian Lin felt that Ye Qiuhan’s worry was just out of kindness. Could such a thing be kept secret?
This little girl has the right to know the truth, and she should know the truth of the matter.
Your mother is dead. It was your father who killed her. Your father also killed many other people. This is the truth of the matter.
"Having said that, she has pretty good talent. Maybe she can become a little genius in the future." Feeling that this topic might be difficult to explain, Ye Qiuhan took the initiative to change the subject. She had just examined the girl's body and found that her physique seemed to be somewhat special.
The effects of those pills that could make ordinary people sleep for a long time were greatly weakened on this little girl. Perhaps it was due to her physical condition.
When Ye Qiuhan said this, he was also reminding Qian Lin in both explicit and implicit ways to take it easy, as she might become our junior sister in the future.
"Then we have to make things clear. We can't hide it from her. If she finds out that we hid such an important thing from her, she will hate us to death. If she defected to the evil side, wouldn't we be doomed?" Qian Lin said righteously.
"What if you tell her now and she also wants to defect?"
"Persuade her to turn back from this difficult time." Qian Lin blinked. Isn't this a simple matter?
"She won't turn back?"
"Kill her? Are you really going to let her go to the devil's way to suffer?" Qian Lin felt that Ye Qiuhan was really mentally ill. Was there any need to ask such a simple question?
It is difficult to persuade a damned ghost with kind words. Since the other party is determined to do what he wants, Qian Lin can only take precautions before it happens.
Now the little girl can't hide her thoughts. When she grows up, she will be able to disguise herself. That will be troublesome to deal with. It is better to solve the problem now.
Moreover, Qian Lin felt that after explaining the matter clearly, this little girl might not necessarily turn evil immediately.
"Ah this..."
"If you don't mind, I'll go talk to her."
"Wait, don't go, let me go." Holding down Qian Lin who was eager to try, Ye Qiuhan thought it would be better to let her do this job.
At least...she is more approachable than Qian Lin, right?
Qian Lin is now a little devil. Asking her to communicate with the little girl would probably push her directly into the fire pit of evil.
Just imagine, if Qian Lin was communicating with the little girl, the first sentence he would say would probably be "Hey, little sister, your father is in our hands now, you don't want your father to lose his life, do you?"
That's too much! The fact that this little girl is not crazy is a sign of her good mental quality!
So after weighing the pros and cons, Ye Qiuhan felt that it would be better for his close sister to fight this time. At least she would speak a little more gently, right?
"What's your name, little sister?" Walking up to the little girl, Ye Qiuhan leaned over and showed a kind smile, trying to use the method of asking her name to narrow the distance between the two.
"My mother said that I can't tell my name to strangers. She said it would be dangerous." The little girl curled up her body, looking very pitiful.
Logically speaking, Ye Qiuhan should have gently counseled the little girl, asking her to let down her guard and tell him her name, but Qian Lin, who was watching the show nearby, suddenly spoke up.
"But your mother is dead, which means what she said was not true."
"Qian Lin!" Ye Qiuhan shouted at Qian Lin with some embarrassment and anger, you are simply adding fuel to the fire!
Hearing Qian Lin's words, the little girl's expression suddenly became quite ugly. The tears that she had been holding back before could no longer be held back, and they flowed out of her eyes like a flood.
Yes, mom is dead, she died right in front of her eyes and will never come back.
Ye Qiuhan quickly hugged the little girl in his arms and comforted her softly. While comforting her, he glared at Qian Lin with a dagger-like gaze, "Look at what you have done. Do you think it's fun to bully a little girl?"
Qian Lin touched her nose. She understood what Ye Qiuhan meant, and she actually thought it was fun to bully the little girl... ahem, she was just trying to find a way to relieve the sadness in the little girl's heart. She was doing a good deed, didn't she understand?
Keeping your emotions bottled up in your heart will only make you sick, so it’s better to just cry for a while. Anyway, there’s a caring older sister by your side, so it won’t be a big problem.
One plays the good cop and the other plays the bad cop, this is the quickest way to get clues out of this little girl.
In Qian Lin's eyes, this little girl is not just a little girl, she is also an important person, a necessary condition for exploring the person behind the burly man.
After venting all the sadness in her heart, the little girl sobbed and said her name. Her name was Sun Ziyu, and she had lived with her mother since she was a child.
That burly man seldom went home, and even when he did, he would only stay for a day or two. Sun Ziyu basically grew up in this state of having a father but not being raised by him.
"So that's how it is. Didn't he bring you anything?" Qian Lin took a notebook and wrote down Sun Ziyu's words. This was a very important confession.
Shaking his head, Sun Ziyu replied in a low voice: "No, he will only give mom some money when he comes back, enough for me and mom to live on."
This was not a lie. Qian Lin could see that this little girl did not grow up in an environment with a lot of material conditions. She had never been hungry when she was a child, but that was all.
"Then do you know what your father does?" Qian Lin continued to ask.
"I don't know. Mom said I'm still young and she will tell me when I grow up."
This time he was not lying. It seemed that the little girl really didn't know what the burly man did.
After answering Qian Lin's question, the clever little girl felt as if she had guessed something. She looked up at Qian Lin and asked nervously, "Did something happen to my dad?"
Qian Lin exchanged glances with Ye Qiuhan and nodded seriously.
"She and I are both monks from the holy land Yaochi. Do you know Yaochi?"
Yaochi? What is that? Sun Ziyu shook his head with a puzzled look on his face.
Although she was smart, it was impossible for her to know something that was completely beyond her understanding.
"What about the Tiandao Sect? You should know this, right?" Qian Lin changed his way of expression.
Sun Ziyu understood now. She nodded vigorously, "That's where the immortals live."
It turns out that this little girl from the mountains understands the Tiandao Sect in this way. In a sense, there is nothing wrong with it.
In the eyes of mortals, a cultivator who can fly in the sky on a sword and split mountains and rivers with a single blow is indeed no different from an immortal.
"Then you should think of us as people from the Tiandao Sect. Your father is a very powerful cultivator, but he is a bad guy." Qian Lin's tone became serious to increase the credibility of his words.
She just wanted to make the little girl understand that she was not joking and that her father was an unforgivable bad man.
"According to incomplete statistics, at least a thousand people died at his hands. The gang he led was notorious in the area, attacking passing merchants, robbing homes, killing people and setting fires, committing all kinds of evil."
After a few seconds of pausing to let the little girl accept this reality, Qian Lin continued, "Not long ago, he colluded with the Demonic Path to help them do something, but he failed and was caught by us."
"You know the evil ones, right? They are the bad guys who fed your mother to the big tree just now. They want to kill people because of your father."
Qian Lin raised his hand and hammered hard on the sack, then asked the people inside: "Is your mission to kill the mother and daughter?"
The demon in the sack twisted his body twice, snorted twice, and then reluctantly replied: "The main task is to feed the big tree to the body-building realm. Dealing with the mother and daughter is just extra work."
Well, in the eyes of the devil, you mother and daughter are just extra work.
"Is that so?" Sun Ziyu's eyes became empty after learning the truth. She leaned weakly on Ye Qiuhan, her face becoming extremely gloomy.
Her father was an unforgivable villain. Her mother died because of her father, and she was almost fed to the big tree.
"Although this will disappoint you, this is indeed the truth of the matter." Ye Qiuhan gently stroked Sun Ziyu's head. Although the little girl's father was a bad man, she would not be hostile to the little girl.
If Sun Ziyu was an arrogant and domineering playboy who relied on his father's ability to bully the village, Ye Qiuhan would not be so gentle.
But this little girl is not such a person. On the contrary, she has a very good personality and there is no trace of that man on her... So could she not be the man's biological daughter?
183. Sorry to bother you again
The question of whether Sun Ziyu is the biological daughter of that burly man is quite ambiguous.
Qian Lin, Ye Qiuhan, Hua Yue and Ye Xin watched the little girl for a whole night, but in the end they could not come to a unanimous conclusion.
If you talk about appearance, the difference is indeed a bit too big, but after asking the mayor of the town, I found out that Sun Ziyu's mother had never done that kind of thing, so it can be basically confirmed that Sun Ziyu is really the biological daughter of that burly man.
"The abnormality in Youfeng Valley was caused by an evil tree close to the body-building stage. Now we have uprooted the tree, but the miasma accumulated over the years is still not something that ordinary people like you can resist. Try to avoid that place if you can."
The white-haired mayor stood beside Qian Lin with his head lowered, nodding continuously as he listened, just like a studious student.
However, Qian Lin's previous sentence was indeed nonsense. Even if she didn't say it, the townspeople here would not have gone to Youfeng Valley.
"Please take care of those people I rescued. I have other missions to complete and cannot stay here for too long." Qian Lin continued to say to the mayor.
She also brought back hundreds of people. Taking care of these poor unconscious people is not an easy job. She has to go back quickly to solve the previous problems and has no time to stay here to do these trivial matters.
We can only trouble the mayor and townspeople of this town and ask them to work hard for a while.
"It's okay, it's just a small matter. I just need to take care of these people for a while." The mayor said with a smile. There were so many more people in the town all of a sudden, and it was a really difficult task to take care of them all.
But what could he do? Could he just tell Qian Lin that we can't do this job here and ask him to find someone else?
If he dared to say this, he would not be the mayor now, but the underground mayor.
Who is Qian Lin? She is a very powerful cultivator. Even the disciples of the Sword Sect obey her orders. The mayor doesn't even dare to think about her identity.
Anyway, it is definitely an existence that he cannot afford to offend.
Moreover, what Qian Lin asked him to do was righteous. These poor people were persecuted by the evil ways. Qian Lin rescued them, but she couldn't take care of them alone, so she had to ask the town to take care of them.
"I will tell the people from Tiandao Sect what happened here later. I won't let you work in vain." Qian Lin nodded and gave the mayor a verbal check.
She didn't know what the Tiandao Sect would do if they encountered such a thing, but she thought they would not let the mayor work in vain.
Hearing Qian Lin's words, the mayor's back straightened up at once, and his voice instantly became more powerful. This was exactly what he had been waiting for Qian Lin to say!
"Thank you, fairy!" The mayor almost knelt down to Qian Lin. As long as this fairy mentioned her contribution in this matter to the immortal master of Tiandao Sect, he would not lose out.
The Tiandao Sect was very generous, and when they took away the talented children in the town, they would give the children's families and the town a very generous compensation, which was high enough to make up for the sadness and grief of separation from their loved ones.
And what I am doing now is not a small thing, so the reward must be a lot!
When the mayor thought about how much reward he could get from the Tiandao Sect, he was fully motivated to complete the task assigned by Qian Lin.
"I will take good care of these people and won't let them lose a single hair!" The mayor promised loudly, patting his chest.
"I hope you won't let me down." Although Qian Lin was a little surprised at the mayor's enthusiasm, he did not show it on his face. Instead, he nodded coldly.
Her current appearance is that of an icy beauty, and that's how it should be.
"Junior sister, it's almost time, we should go." Ye Qiuhan, holding Sun Ziyu's hand, came over and reminded Qian Lin that it was almost time and they should set off.
Time is running out. The sooner we get back to the city, the sooner we can find out what happened and what the Demonic Path is planning.
"Well, I'll leave this to you. Also, be careful of the demons. If you really encounter danger, you can crush this wooden sign and I will receive the news." Handing a hastily made wooden sign to the mayor, Qian Lin said to him in a serious tone, "This wooden sign is extremely fragile. It will break if it is slightly bumped. You must keep it carefully."
The mayor respectfully took the wooden plaque with both hands. Based on his attitude, Qian Lin believed that he would definitely preserve the wooden plaque as a family heirloom.
After doing all this, Qian Lin turned around and walked to Ye Qiuhan, waving at the mayor, "See you again if we are lucky!"
The demon in the sack was now carried on Ye Xin's shoulders. After knowing what the demon in the sack had done, Ye Xin originally wanted to kill him with a sword, but thinking that there might still be value that could be exploited from him, she reluctantly put down the sword.
But she was still afraid that this person would be unsafe if placed in other places, so she volunteered to keep an eye on this demon.
What this means now is that she has taken away Huayue's work, making Miss Huayue, who was a laborer, unemployed.
Of course, the unemployed Miss Huayue was not unhappy at all. Instead, she was quite happy. She was so happy that she even started humming a little tune on the flying sword.
It didn't take much time to get back from the town. During the trip, Qian Lin met some monks from the Tiandao Sect who were patrolling nearby. He told them what happened to him in the mountain town and showed them the captured demon prisoners.
After seeing that what Qian Lin said was true, the Tiandao Sect cultivators immediately said that they would take this news seriously and would not let the demons take advantage of the opportunity.
Well, that’s what she said, but Qian Lin couldn’t know what the actual effect would be.
After traveling day and night for a day and a half, Qian Lin and his group finally returned to their starting point on the morning of the third day.
