Chapter 147 The non-existent person(1/2)
There is no such person in this place...
Su Anlin was stunned when he heard these words.
"Brother, are you kidding me? Is this Ueno Village?" Su Anlin said.
"This is indeed Ueno Village, but I have never heard of anyone named Wang Cunshui here." The middle-aged man said seriously, and it didn't sound like he was lying.
And there is no need for the other party to tell lies. He is not here to seek revenge, just to find someone.
Su Anlin frowned.
Logically speaking, with Yanagi Ye's energy, he can't make a mistake.
Then there is only one possibility, this Wang Cunshui may be hiding his name here.
After all, Yanagi Ye said that his junior disciple had a bit of a weird temperament, and maybe for some purpose, he really kept his name anonymous.
"Little brother, are you looking in the wrong place?" the middle-aged man said again.
"Big brother, it's getting late. I want to stay here for the night. I can pay some silver."
Since there is no one, we can only settle for the next best thing and live here now.
See if there is any weirdo here. That weirdo may be Wang Cunshui.
"Live here." The middle-aged man hesitated: "It's not that I won't let you live. When you entered the village, you should have seen it. The stone tablet said that there is a ghost here."
Su Anlin said: "I saw it, but I am very strange, why are you not afraid?"
A young man with a shaved head next to him interrupted: "Didn't you see that we are patrolling?"
"patrol……"
The middle-aged man explained: "Yes, because our village is haunted, there must be patrols at all times to prevent accidents. As for us not being afraid... Haha, what's the use of being afraid? We are used to it. Besides, everyone in our village has learned it."
Some self-defense methods.”
What they said refreshed Su Anlin's understanding.
The entire village actually learned how to defend themselves.
"Brother, I'm actually a warrior, so I'm not afraid of ghosts. Now that it's dark, I have nowhere to go, so I can only stay here." Su Anlin said solemnly.
"Warriors can't deal with evil spirits? But since you have to live here, there's nothing you can do about it. Come with me. I'll take you into the village and meet the village chief."
"It's time to work."
Su Anlin breathed a sigh of relief.
Although this place was weird, the villagers were pretty nice and didn't make things difficult for him.
After talking, Su Anlin learned that the middle-aged man's name was Yu Fei.
He is not a warrior. In fact, there are no warriors in the village, but everyone here learns a technique called Qi Control.
This technique is said to be able to induce breath and deal with evil spirits.
"What you just met was a wind ghost. This kind of evil spirit likes to suck people's yang energy and lie on people's bodies without them noticing."
Yu Fei explained while leading the way.
Su Anlin was curious: "I have encountered wind ghosts before, but they were much more ferocious than this one."
"Is the wind ghost fierce? Where did you meet it?"
"An ancient tomb." Su Anlin described the situation at that time.
Yu Fei was surprised and said: "It turns out to be an ancient tomb, but that's different. The ancient tomb has been buried underground for too long, and the evil spirits will become more cruel and powerful after accepting the Yin Qi from the underground."
Su Anlin nodded.
He found that he still knew too little about the evil spirits in this world.
Suddenly, in the forest ahead, the leaves of a tree started to move on their own.
It's like someone is shaking under the tree.
Su Anlin was stunned: "What's going on?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the trunks of the trees began to swing downward.
It's like a gesture of invitation.
"Don't worry, this is the tree ghost who guards the gate of our village. If there is danger or a stranger comes in, the tree ghost will swing. He just welcomed you."
The corner of Su Anlin's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but take another look at the tree: "Is this...is this welcoming me? Is Xie Sui so smart? No, so friendly?"
"People are divided into good and bad, and of course there are evil spirits. There is a saying. I wonder if Brother Su has ever heard of it?"
"Please say."
"People know that ghosts are scary, and ghosts know that people's hearts are poisonous! Sometimes, people are more poisonous than ghosts!"
"Brother Yu, how do you know so much when you stay in the village every day?" Su Anlin was surprised.
Yu Fei smiled sarcastically and said sheepishly: "I read that there are many ghost stories recorded in some books. After reading those books, I feel that there are some people outside who are scarier."
While he was talking, Su Anlin followed him into the village.
There are about forty or fifty households in the village, with a population of several hundred people.
At this time, most people are eating.
In the small village, there are smoke and birds, half-grown children are playing in the village open space, chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock have returned to the chicken coop and begun to sleep.
A peaceful scene.
Many people looked at Su Anlin curiously after seeing him.
As Su Anlin walked, he observed the blood bars above everyone's head.
He found that people living here generally had higher health bars than people outside.
For example, even a child has a health bar of seventy or eighty.
A few strong middle-aged men had health bars reaching 200.
Seeing these people, Su Anlin secretly felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
His health bar is still only 180. From the outside world, his health bar is already high enough to be regarded as a master.
But here, it’s not as good as too much.
Finally arriving at a farmyard, Yu Fei said: "Our village's surname is Li. When you enter, please explain your intention and speak nicely."
"Okay, big brother."
Entering the house, you saw an old man with a goatee sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and meditating.
There were several children around, playing happily.
Two women, one older and one younger, were serving food.
A very simple family.
But when he saw the health bar on the old man's head, Su Anlin knew that this old man was not simple.
[Health bar: 410/410!]
This is so weird, the health bar is so high.
This is a boss-level existence in the village.
Su Anlin couldn't help but look squarely at the village chief.
The village chief looks a bit older, around fifty years old, but his strength is definitely not low.
He was almost certain that the person in front of him was Wang Cunshui he was looking for.
The village chief raised his eyes and glanced at Su Anlin: "An outsider."
"Village chief, this is Su Anlin. Brother Su said that he was entrusted by a city lord to come and find a man named Wang Cunshui."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Fei just finished speaking.
Su Anlin was keenly aware that a different look flashed in the village chief's eyes.
"Stop looking, there is no one named Wang Cunshui here."
The village chief put down the teapot and waved his hand towards Su Anlin: "Let's go, I will arrange a place for you tonight. You will come back where you came from tomorrow morning."
Su Anlin said seriously: "Don't the village chief want to know which city lord asked me to come here? Or does the village chief know who asked me to come?"
The village chief narrowed his eyes: "Our village has been isolated from the world for many years. I never inquire about the outside world."
"That's a pity. The city lord also gave me a letter."
Su Anlin took out the letter: "Since Wang Cunshui does not exist here, it seems that I can't find anyone, so let's go back and run for my life."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the tea stove nearby.
"If you can't find anyone, just burn the letter."
"Huh?" The village chief looked at the letter and saw that Su Anlin was really about to burn the letter. He hurriedly said: "Wait a minute..."
But it's too late.
Su Anlin had already thrown the letter into the fire.
Soon, the letter was burned into a pile of ashes.
"You guy, you, you, you..."
The village chief was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The family watching next to them were puzzled. What was going on? Why was the head of the family so excited all of a sudden?
To be continued...
