A group of people in Humiao Village sat around Liu Qingyi, staring at Liu Qingyi with curiosity and admiration.
Xu Jin said: "Liu Shangxian comes back this time, but do you have anything important to do?"
Liu Qingyi smiled slightly and said, "I just came back to take a look. I will be leaving soon. Are the expenses in the village acceptable? Is there anything missing?"
Xu Jin and everyone in Humiao Village were very happy when Liu Qingyi said this.
Everyone knew that Liu Qingyi really took Humiao Village to his heart. The short words "come back and have a look" already expressed his concern for Humiao Village. Seeing him, he became concerned about the village's expenses. Everyone was even more happy.
When Liu Qingyi asked, Xu Jin shook his head and said: "Back to Shangxian, we don't lack anything. The city lord's palace takes good care of our Humiao Village. Even several big families in the city care about our Humiao Village." The people are also very polite. And since the city lord's mansion has eliminated corvee and reduced the annual currency, our life has become much better. We can't use up the things you brought back last time in a short time, and many villagers have taken them Went to change for some other things.”
Liu Qingyi nodded when he heard this. Just as he came along, he saw several more wind-bone beasts in the village. People who came to Humiao Village were getting richer and richer.
After these warm words, everyone felt closer to Liu Qingyi, and many people also secretly murmured in their hearts, who said that people who have entered the immortal sect ignore the world and are extremely indifferent to their relatives in the world. The Immortal Liu from Humiao Village is very different. Not only does he miss the village, he is also able to talk to the people in the village like ordinary people.
In the meeting hall, everyone was vying to talk to Liu Qingyi, and from time to time someone curiously asked about the Immortal Sect.
Liu Qingyi smiled and clarified everyone's doubts. He talked about some ordinary things in the Immortal Sect in detail, but he reserved some important things.
Although everyone in Humiao Village was curious about the lives of people in the Immortal Sect, they were even more proud to be able to talk to Liu Qingyi. For a time, everyone in the hall was beaming with joy, and they felt a sense of pride as a member of Humiao Village.
Liu Qingyi asked Xu Jin about the recent situation in Yinyuan City for a while, thinking about what happened to Chen Sui'er and wondering what impact it would have on the Chen family in Yinyuan City.
Xu Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "Back to Shangxian, a big change has happened in our Yinyuan City recently." Some people around him also said, "Yes, something happened to the Chen family." "I I’ve heard about it, but I don’t know the details.”
Then I heard Xu Jin's voice talking eloquently: "Something happened to the Chen family in the city. I don't know what happened. More than 20 days ago, there were rumors in the city that the woman of the Chen family who joined the Three Holy Temples was expelled from the sect. I heard that People from the City Lord's Mansion also came out to confirm the matter. The cause of the matter was that a disciple of the Chen family named Chen Sui'er from the Immortal Sect had an affair with a mortal from the Zhou family in the city and gave birth to a son, who hated the Immortal Sect members. Not only was the Zhou family member executed, Chen Sui'er was also expelled from the Immortal Sect."
Hearing this, Liu Qingyi couldn't help but ask: "What is the situation of the Chen family now?"
Xu Jin said: "We lost, we really lost. The Chen family used to be very domineering in the city and offended many people, especially several other families in Yinyuan City who refused to deal with them for a long time. Something happened to the Chen family this time. After the news came, many people came to seek bad luck for them. It is said that the Chen family's emaciated camel was bigger than a horse. Even if such a big change happened, most people would not have the guts to come and cause trouble. I think those who come to come may be behind their backs. More or less, there are people who support me." At this point, Xu Jin had a cryptic expression.
Liu Qingyi's face was filled with uncertainty as he said, "That was what happened before. Fighting among mortals is not a big deal. You said that the Chen family was defeated. What happened?"
Xu Jin picked up a tea bowl on the short table and took a sip. He suppressed the panic on his face and said in a deep voice: "More than ten days ago, Chen Sui'er returned to Yinyuan City with the ancestors of the Chen family. That Chen Sui'er returned to Yinyuan City together. The ancestor of the family, Chen Ling, seemed to be injured. He was supported by Chen Sui'er all the way. Many people in the city saw it. That night, a group of men in black came to kill them. It was said that several of those men in black were immortals who had escaped from the sky. , all the magic weapons used were extremely powerful. The ancestor of the Chen family dragged his seriously wounded body and was killed on the spot against three people. The head of the Chen family and more than a dozen clan members stopped him, but they all died in the hands of the man in black. Under the sword. Those people were really ruthless. They fought all the way to the back hall and killed most of the remaining Chen family members, including children as young as a few years old.
None of them were spared. But later...it turned out to be haunted. "
Liu Qingyi said, "It's haunted?!" She wondered if it was Chen Sui'er who had manipulated the little black flag.
Xu Jin's face was still full of fear and he said: "Yes, it is really haunted! Several black-clothed immortals rushed to the back hall and bumped into Chen Sui'er. They saw him holding a wooden coffin and protecting him behind him. A little child. His mouth and nose were dripping with blood. He was holding a dark soul-calling flag, and he looked like a ghost. Behind him, there were only gusts of sinister wind, but a tall ghost really appeared. If you dare to touch it and watch the excitement, People came out and said that they had seen that fierce ghost with their own eyes, which was more than two feet tall, and bit off the head of a man in black with just one bite."
Liu Qingyi said, "What happened next?"
Xu Jin paused for a moment and said: "Later, the group of men in black ran away and fled. Those who didn't escape had their hearts and lungs ripped out by the evil ghost, and their death was very miserable. That night, the Chen family found out There was a fire. After the fire, there was no one in the Chen family. Chen Sui'er and the child were both missing. Some people said that Chen Sui'er turned into a ghost, and some even said that they had seen a man carrying a wooden coffin on his back. The woman who was a child followed a huge ghost figure walking in the river outside the city and transformed into a river demon. All in all, it was mysterious."
After Xu Jin finished speaking, he looked at Liu Qingyi steadily and said, "Liu Shangxian, are there really ghosts in the Immortal Sect? Then the ghost that appeared in the Chen family was actually seen by people, but it was It cannot be faked.”
When Liu Qingyi heard Xu Jin's question, he smiled and nodded: "In the fairy world, there are some evil practices that refine souls and turn them into ghosts. That's why the so-called ghosts come from this. It's not a rare thing. These evil skills Most of the Dharma harms the harmony of heaven and earth, and has always been shamed by all the great immortal sects."
As he explained, he thought to himself: "What kind of fate did the Chen family have? They suffered a series of changes, and finally fell into a situation where the whole family was ruined. Could it be that those men in black drove them to Yinyuan City for the sake of those two scattered men?" Repair the feud." After thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but complain about my carelessness. I didn't do a clean job in killing the two people in the mountain that day, so that someone found the traces and chased me. I felt a little guilty towards Chen Sui'er in my heart.
In fact, he was overthinking it, not to mention that these casual cultivators were already helpless, and there would be no one to avenge them. Even if those men in black really want revenge, they should look for him, Liu Qingyi, as the culprit. What's the point of looking for the Chen family?
It was quite a coincidence that they could reach Yinyuan City so quickly with complete knowledge. It was a coincidence that the ancestors of the Chen family and Chen Sui'er had just come back and they came to kill them in the middle of the night.
All kinds of reasons were not something Liu Qingyi considered. He chatted with Xu Jin for a while, distributed some of the gifts he had brought, then came out of the meeting hall and followed Luo'er's house to visit Aunt Agu.
After he took out the clothes and accessories he bought for the mother and daughter on Bolian City Road, the girl Luoer screamed with joy, but Aunt Agu complained about Liu Qingyi's expense.
Liu Qingyi asked again whether they had eaten the longevity pill they brought back last time, but the mother and daughter were evasive. When he learned that the pill was still alive and untouched, he was speechless. .
He thought that it was not easy for him to get this thing, but the mother and daughter did not take it seriously. He was angry and ordered Luo'er to take out the longevity pill and ask the mother and daughter to take it in front of him.
Agu and Luoer couldn't resist Liu Qingyi, so they rummaged in a heavy wooden box in the back room for a long time before taking out three pills wrapped in yellow paper from the bottom of the box. Mother and daughter each took one and presented them in front of Liu Qingyi. With a face full of anxiety, he drank it with water.
Seeing the mother and daughter's expressions as if they were taking poison, Liu Qingyi couldn't help but feel a little funny, and asked Luo'er to pick up the remaining ones, feeling a stone fall from her heart.
He heard Wu Yaqi say last time that the longevity pill seemed to be refined less and less because the materials were difficult to find, so it was something that could only be found but not sought. If it is lost by the two of them, or taken out as a random favor, I don’t know how long it will take to encounter such a thing again next time.
That night, Liu Qingyi stayed in Humiao Village. During the period, he accompanied Tianbao and Luo'er to row a boat to the middle of the lake to catch fish, and chatted in the middle of the night.
Early the next morning, he left Humiao Village with the little civet, one person and one cat, flying north through the clouds and mist.
