Young master, why not become a corpse immortal?

Chapter 331 Lover

Miss Shen.

Lin Jiang only remembered her surname, but couldn't recall her given name at all.

It really was her!

Unexpectedly, the fist mark has not disappeared to this day!
The little ginseng cautiously peeked out from Lin Jiang's sleeve, its gaze fixed on the clothesline:

"Hey! Isn't this the one I threw earlier?"

"Exactly."

This clothesline originated from his old house, and Gongxuan's secret techniques for transporting corpses are still preserved on it.

Now that Miss Shen is personally holding this bamboo pole, could it be that she is still...?

Drive yourself away?

Lin Jiang was speechless for a moment.

Miss Shen's melody, which floated in the air, contained a unique charm, and the servants, upon hearing it, all had a dazed look in their eyes.

They instinctively stepped aside, and several people quietly wiped away tears with their fingertips, clearly unwilling to disturb the couple who were so deeply entangled.

Lin Jiang and the others also felt a wisp of Qi brushing against their faces. Except for Tai Nanzi and Fang Xuanzi, whose cultivation was slightly shallower, the others had profound cultivation, and the incoming Qi flow could not disturb them in the slightest.

"Such deep affection is truly moving."

Just then, Lin Jiang heard Yi Er San sobbing and glanced to the side to see the other person wiping the corner of their eye.

...Well, this technique, though not very sophisticated, is still effective for some people.

However, the song had only been going on for a few lines when a clear, crisp sound of a wooden fish suddenly came from the courtyard.

A faint, golden light emanated from the center of the crowd, quickly enveloping all directions.

Miss Shen in the courtyard let out a soft gasp, then immediately ran towards the courtyard and quickly hid inside.

"How fortunate! There is still a monk here. I haven't seen a monk for many years since I went to the Southern Border." Yu Wenyun immediately sensed the Dharma behind the wooden fish: "The only one I see all day is a bald head."

“He was born bald,” Lin Jiang couldn’t help but say. “He even made up a profound statement back then, as if to make himself seem very Zen.”

"Haha! After all, his forehead looks like it's been cursed. No matter how high his rank is, not a single hair will grow. So he naturally needs to make up some reasons."

Yu Wenyun was clearly very familiar with the Imperial Advisor and knew a lot of inside information.

The two people beside Tai Nanzi and his apprentice did not know who they were talking about, but they could still sketch out an interesting bald man from the description.

After forcing Miss Shen to retreat, the nearby servants regrouped, and the group moved closer, intending to go straight in.

The large group of people immediately attracted the attention of the servants. The one in the lead glanced around at everyone, his gaze settling on Tai Nanzi, and he forced a smile, saying:
"Master Tai Nanzi, you've come again."

The word "again" carries a lot of implications, showing how many times Tai Nanzi has been beaten in the past two days.

However, they made no attempt to stop the group from entering, and simply stepped aside to let them in.

When they arrived at the center of the crowd, they found an elderly man talking quietly with a middle-aged monk.

The two were also startled by the commotion outside, and were slightly taken aback when they saw a large crowd pouring in.

Upon seeing Tai Nanzi, the old man frowned almost imperceptibly, but he still bowed slightly in Tai Nanzi's direction and said, "Daoist Master."

"Master Jing, who is this?" Tai Nanzi looked at the middle-aged monk holding the wooden fish.

The old man answered calmly:
"This is Master Lingkong, a highly respected monk from Mingde Temple. He travels extensively and possesses exceptional skills, almost reaching the inner circle. Daoist Tainanzi might not be suitable to deal with that evil spirit, so I invited the Master here."

Upon hearing this, Tai Nanzi's expression immediately became subtle.

He wanted to explain something more, but the words all got stuck in his throat.

The main reason was that he had actually been beaten several times. As the employer, Master Jing was already considered to have a very good temper; if it had been someone else, he probably would have been kicked out the first two times.

The monk, a smile playing on his lips, spoke in a gentle tone:
“Fellow Daoist, everyone has their own expertise. I have long heard of the name of Ta Yunxia, ​​a renowned martial arts sect in the Jianghu. However, martial arts killing energy is indeed not very effective against certain evil spirits. Why don’t I give it a try?”

“This time it’s not me who’s coming.” Tai Nanzi had no choice but to step back, revealing Lin Jiang and the others behind him.

Lin Jiang glanced at the monk.

The other person's head was lowered, which did indeed give him a compassionate appearance, but his nose and mouth also drooped down, adding a touch of ferocity to this compassionate look.

These elements blended together within him, creating a strange balance.

He didn't look like a compassionate bodhisattva who saves people from suffering, nor did he look like a ruthless demon who kills without hesitation.

Furthermore, it is more like a guardian deity, exuding an aura of authority without anger.

“We are all friends of Tai Nanzi. We learned a little about exorcism techniques in the martial arts world and came to take a look.”

Lin Jiang smiled and introduced the people around him.

Upon hearing this, Lingkong's expression remained unchanged; he simply said:
"If you are not good at dealing with ghosts and spirits, don't force yourself, after all, ghosts and humans are different."

Although his words were quite fair, his tone carried a hint of arrogance.

He was clearly very confident in his ability to subdue demons and monsters.

"We're all from the underworld, so naturally we know these things."

Hearing Lin Jiang say this, Ling Kong nodded and said nothing more.

Master Jing would not let these people who helped him leave; the more people there were, the more certainty he had. He glanced at them and explained:
"My foolish son is curled up in his room, refusing to come out no matter what. I sent someone in, but that ghostly creature fiercely drove them away. I'm truly at a loss now. Do any of you gentlemen have a good solution?"

"This humble monk wishes to enter the room directly to help you vanquish the evil spirits, so that I may bring the young master back," Lingkong spoke first.

Upon hearing this, Master Jing hesitated slightly:
“Master, that woman is ultimately infatuated. If it can be driven away, please just send her away and bring the foolish boy back. That will be enough.”

Lingkong frowned slightly:

“Sir, you are indeed compassionate, showing pity for this evil spirit even in this predicament. However, since this creature has not been certified by the waiter, it will surely cause more trouble if left unchecked. I still believe it should be killed as soon as possible to avoid endless future problems.”

Master Jing hesitated, then remained silent.

He wasn't worried about the ghost's safety, but rather that if he really intended to kill it, it might cause his mentally challenged son to cause a huge commotion afterward.

However, after careful consideration, Master Jing realized that the reason the illness was difficult to treat today was simply because the female ghost was protecting the mentally challenged child. If the child were alone, the illness could be easily dealt with.

He nodded and said no more.

Lin Jiang, who was watching from the sidelines, raised an eyebrow slightly upon seeing this scene. Such intense killing intent.

Since the arrival of waiters in Daxing, most things, whether demons or humans, have become much more harmonious, except for those that have just taken human form and are still in a state of chaos. When the remaining demons and humans have conflicts, even if they are furious, they will only choose to beat the other person up rather than actually kill them.

Exorcists do the same thing.

Unexpectedly, this monk was a traditionalist.

However, the group didn't say much.

After reaching an agreement, a large group of them poured into the courtyard.

The mansion's yard was indeed very large, clearly a rather nice house in the area.

Upon entering the courtyard, however, all was quiet. Even the sounds of the servants training outside seemed to vanish without a trace.

Ling Kong snorted coldly, walked in front of the crowd, picked up the wooden fish in his hand, and tapped it lightly twice:
"How dare you act so recklessly in this town! Today, this humble monk will act on behalf of Heaven and punish you, you wicked creature!"

Then, he hurriedly knocked on the wooden fish twice more, and the door of the house in the distance finally opened with a bang. A handsome young man walked out, holding the hand of a girl whose head was covered with a red veil.

The ghost bride was none other than Miss Shen, whom Lin Jiang had just seen in the courtyard.

The young man's face was full of anger as he glared furiously at the monk Lingkong:

"We were mutually attracted and poured out our hearts to each other. Shen Niang had absolutely no intention of harming me! How could I tolerate your bald monk spouting such nonsense!"

Miss Shen spoke in a drawn-out tone:

"My only wish in this life is to find a handsome young man. If my master truly grants me permission to serve you, then I will follow you for a thousand lifetimes..."

Just as she finished speaking, her gaze, hidden beneath the red veil, suddenly fell upon Lin Jiang.

I got stuck.

Lin Jiang could see Miss Shen tremble subconsciously.

He seemed to be frightened.

Ling Kong, completely disregarding all of this, saw that the other party had suddenly become silent and roared:
"Death to the evildoer!"

He suddenly leaped up and charged straight at Miss Shen.

With this movement, Miss Shen suddenly came to her senses.

She stared at the approaching monk, clearly enraged, and kicked Lingkong straight in the chest.

This kick was as swift as the wind, and Lingkong was greatly shocked.

This isn't right.

Who would sneakily use martial arts to directly attack someone?
He tried desperately to defend himself, but his physique was far inferior to that of the ghost bride. He was kicked squarely in the chest and sent flying backward like an arrow.

He rolled twice on the ground before finally sitting down, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

Lingkong's eyes widened in shock:
"The inner hall? Or the inner hall for martial arts practitioners?"

He was clearly stunned.

That's an incredible skill!

And why haven't I received my waiter's certificate even after arriving at the inner hall?!

"Hmph! My wife is quite formidable!"

The young master proudly raised his head, then smiled and looked around at everyone:

"You guys take him away as soon as possible, and tell my father that I'll stay in this courtyard. Just send me some food every day."

Then he planned to take his bride back to Fangjiang, but he immediately found that he couldn't pull her away.

Only then did he realize that Miss Shen was staring intently at Lin Jiang.

Miss Shen shielded the young master behind her, extremely vigilant:
"Young Master Lin, it's been a long time."

"In Baishan County, the weather is still chilly even when it's warm, and winter is almost here again. It has indeed been quite a long time since we last met."

Lin Jiang smiled and then looked at the young master who was frowning and staring at him with a puzzled expression:

"It seems you've found your lover."

“Yes, he treats me very well,” Miss Shen said, while touching her face with a rather resentful expression. “It’s a pity that my face is blemished, so I never dare to take off my veil to let my lover see me.”

Lin Jiang looked slightly embarrassed.

Those fist marks were from my own punch.

"Is the young master here to arrest me too?" Miss Shen asked again, her tone noticeably more wary.

“This Taoist priest is my friend.” Lin Jiang pointed to the somewhat bewildered man, Tai Nanzi: “I came here after hearing about his story.”

“I see…” Miss Shen clearly adopted a guarded stance: “Although you helped me avenge my great grudge back then, I should obey you completely, but this involves my lover after all, so I cannot back down even a little.”

After a pause, he said again:

"In the time I haven't seen you, my cultivation has advanced considerably. If you insist on fighting me, young master, it might injure you. Please step back..."

She had just finished speaking when her body suddenly seemed to lose its support, and she collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Before he could react, the young master screamed and lay down next to his beloved ghost, completely panicked.

Lin Jiang looked back and saw that Yi Er San had already lit a red candle.

It was clearly the red candle that had the desired effect:
She tilted her head in confusion:

"Weren't you going to hit her?"

Lin Jiang opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

I was originally planning to make a quick escape...

Forget it.

Lin Jiang squatted down in front of the two lovers, one human and one ghost:

"Can we talk properly now?"
