He was what Lin Ye considered to be stupid but not bad. He always robbed the rich people who came up the mountain and never cared about the people who collected herbs. The Qianyan Army stationed there only entered the mountain symbolically as a formality.
The Qianyan Army would sometimes entrust the Adventurer's Association to issue commissions for help, and this was also the case with this bandit suppression and rescue mission.
In addition to the twenty Qianyan soldiers, there were Linye Hutao, Xingqiu and two other people, as well as two adventurer lovers, and a merchant who was eager to save his son and personally went into battle, plus the four servants he brought with him.
There were fifteen rooms, with two people living in one room, Lin Ye and Xingqiu, Hu Tao and another female adventurer.
There is a public dining area in Wangshu Inn. Lin Ye and his friends gathered at one table. Hu Tao went to find the chef Yan Xiao and asked him to prepare a few dishes himself.
Xingqiu took out the martial arts novel he carried with him and began to read it with great interest. Lin Ye was thinking about how to deal with the treasure-stealing group. Covering up for them was impossible.
Lin Ye didn't know how the boss managed the situation. The situation was much worse than before and it was a bit too much.
Moreover, Lin Ye was also somewhat concerned about the system task description.
Is this crisis of group annihilation a crisis of collective death?
It would be better to let them go to jail.
At this time, Lin Ye heard the conversation between the middle-aged businessman and his servant at the next table, and they were cursing.
"My son is in the hands of those thieves and his life or death is unknown. How can I take a rest? And I still have the mood to send gifts? What a joke!" The middle-aged businessman named Li Mao, who does some silk business, was anxious and worried. He angrily vented his dissatisfaction to the servants, "If I had known that the Qianyan Army was so inefficient, I might as well have spent money to hire mercenaries to rescue my son!"
All the servants smiled and comforted him.
Xingqiu came back to his senses from the sea of books. He was not angry at being interrupted. He turned around and spoke to Li Mao patiently.
"We ride at full speed every day. Under normal circumstances, it would take us two days to reach Wangshu Inn. Even if we are not tired, the horses cannot bear it."
"It's more than enough time before the scheduled date. Don't worry, we can make it."
Upon hearing this, Li Mao was about to yell, "The person who was kidnapped was not your son, so of course you are not in a hurry." But when he saw that it was the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Li Mao was in the silk business and was associated with Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, so he did not dare to offend him. He just sighed and drank in silence.
Xingqiu shook his head and showed a thoughtful expression again. He took out a small notebook and wrote something down.
When Lin Ye saw this, he joked.
"Isn't it a little notebook that holds grudges?"
"Brother Lin, you are joking." Xingqiu laughed, but did not continue.
This is the small notebook where Xingqiu records his inspirations. The reason why he joined the bandit-suppression team was, firstly, to be chivalrous and righteous, and secondly, to meet the Hu Zha bandit and look for materials to add to the content of his novel.
This time, Xingqiu recorded his eagerness to save his son as material.
Xingqiu and Linye were not very close, so of course he would not tell Linye about writing the novel.
Lin Ye didn't bother himself and continued thinking about his own things.
After completing the system tasks, see if you can meet Shen He.
Without the immortal Shen He's guidance, Lin Ye could not find the cave of Master Liuyun Jiefeng.
At this time, Hu Tao came and smiled at Lin Ye.
"Lin Ye, come to work."
Chapter 61 Enlightenment in Longchang
Come to life? X
Who died! √
The job that the head of the Wangsheng Hall mentioned, isn't it burying people or something else?
"We don't have a coffin when we go out." Lin Ye said subconsciously after hearing Hu Tao's words.
Xingqiu and Hutao were both stunned for a moment, especially Xingqiu, who was quite puzzled and looked doubtful.
After spending a long time with Lin Ye, Hu Tao was able to follow Lin Ye's train of thought. She snorted unhappily, "What are you thinking about?"
"Funerals are for daytime work," Walnut raised her two little hands again, with a sinister and threatening look, "Now it's night time."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye understood what Hu Tao meant.
At night... get ready to catch monsters!
At this time, a tall and burly man came up from behind Hu Tao. He came to Hu Tao's side. His face was angular and he looked like a tough guy, but his facial features were twisted into an expression of panic. He pointed at Lin Ye and turned to Hu Tao and asked.
"He is the assistant you mentioned, Hall Master Hu?"
"That's right!" Hu Tao put down her hands and patted the airport, proudly saying, "He is Liyue Port's justice partner, the manager of the Funeral Research Department of the Hall of Rebirth - Lin Ye!"
Lin Ye looked up at the tall man. He could be considered to have been involved with gangsters before. From the temperament that this man inadvertently revealed, he seemed timid but a tough guy.
Lin Ye, who was face-blind, immediately identified the other person's identity - Yan Xiao.
The former gangster robbed the owner of Wangshu Inn, Phil Godette, which was equivalent to a thief stealing things and robbing them at the police station.
After being severely taught a lesson, for some reason, Philgodette did not hand Yan Xiao over to the Qianyan Army, but instead made him a cook.
Since then, Yan Xiao had an epiphany at Wangshu Inn Longchang, opened up a new track, found a new way of playing, and gained new value in life.
Whether Yan Xiao has made any achievements in the field of robbing people is not discussed for now, but he does have a talent for cooking. He has never had a master and is self-taught.
This is a gift from God. In real life, I wonder how many people would envy me.
During the Zhuyue Festival, he participated in the Chef Competition and lost to Xiangling by a single move. However, when two masters fight, the outcome is determined by some details, so the win or loss is uncertain, as Yanxiao is very strong.
In addition to being a good cook, Yan Xiao is also afraid of ghosts. Perhaps it is because he did a lot of bad things in the past and feels guilty.
This time, Lin Ye guessed that Yan Xiao went to see Master Hu to deal with the ghost.
The owner, Philgodette, knew that some lost ghosts would stay in Wangshu Inn for a while, but she also knew that there was an immortal living in Wangshu Inn, so nothing serious would happen and she didn't care.
Yan Xiao cared, he was really afraid, just like some people in his previous life worshipped Guan Gong, no matter if there were any, they had to worship him with a guilty conscience, not to mention that there really were ghosts on the continent of Teyvat.
"Hello, I'm Lin Ye." Lin Ye greeted Yan Xiao.
"Hello, my name is Yan Xiao." Yan Xiao looked at Lin Ye. There was mutual attraction between the two people in the same profession. Yan Xiao felt that this upright young man was inexplicably dark.
"You talk to Lin Ye and tell them what you need us to solve." Hu Tao said to Yan Xiao.
Hearing this, Yan Xiao sat down by himself. He glanced around and found that no one cared about him, a cook, running over. He spoke to Lin Ye and Xing Qiu cautiously, as if he was afraid that someone would hear him. "Do you believe in ghosts coming to your house?"
Lin Ye: ...Do you believe in possession by ghosts?
Xingqiu also became interested. Chongyun was a Taoist priest who caught ghosts. Through his influence, Xingqiu also had some knowledge about evil spirits.
Xingqiu is a man of integrity, and has the destiny to revitalize the Guhua sect. If he were put in a martial arts novel, he would be the protagonist Long Aotian, and ordinary little ghosts would not be able to get close to him.
"Speak." Yan Xiao couldn't help but said anxiously when he saw Lin Ye was silent.
"I believe it," Lin Ye said, "So you think you're haunted by a ghost?"
Lin Ye felt that Yan Xiao was worrying too much, and since the Great Sage who subdues demons was here, he taught him to offer almond tofu to Xiao to ensure his life would be safe.
By the way, was Xiao at Wangshu Inn at this time, or was he still hoeing the land? He was not a traveler, so he could call Xiao with just one sentence. There was no important reason, and Lin Ye did not want to summon him casually using the method Xiao gave him, which would make him unhappy.
"Yes, it is..." Yan Xiao was about to say something, but then he stopped talking and changed his words. "It was a female ghost. Last night I dreamt that she came to me and wanted to take my life. Now I always feel like someone is watching me from behind. It's so creepy that my hand holding the kitchen knife is shaking."
"Lin Ye, our hall master does good deeds every day, let's help him." Hu Tao said seriously.
Lin Ye showed a suspicious expression.
"Uh, just like Yan Xiao said, he can't even hold the knife, how can he cook boiled fish?" Hu Tao blinked guiltily and said in a low voice.
The master is a foodie.
Lin Ye covered his forehead, and suddenly realized why Hu Tao had to come to help. If there really was a ghost, Hu Tao could handle it alone.
Lin Ye couldn't help but think of the reason why Hu Tao first fell in love with him.
"You don't want me to divert the ghost that is haunting Yan Xiao to myself, do you?" Lin Ye asked with a wry smile.
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao did not respond directly to Lin Ye, but instead spoke to Xingqiu.
"My Master Xingqiu, it's just as I said. All of our subordinates are extremely smart people."
"..."
Xingqiu didn't know much about Lin Ye's physique, so naturally he didn't know about Hu's sting operation. He was confused and couldn't understand the conversation between Lin Ye and Hu Tao.
"Limited Time Mission: The Troubles of Yanxiao"
"As a cook, not cooking for a day is an insult to his profession. He hasn't cooked for more than a day and has been in a state of panic all day."
"Reward: 30 original stones"
"Big Experience Book*1"
"........."
"Since the hall master has spoken, I will definitely help you!" Lin Ye said in a loud voice.
Walnut looked delighted.
In Yanxiao's kitchen, he is the top star in Wangshu Inn. He has a separate kitchen filled with ingredients and a kitchen knife is placed on the chopping board.
Lin Ye, Hu Tao, Yan Xiao, and Xing Qiu who came to join in the fun were all here.
"Can you first describe to us in detail what the female ghost looks like?" Hu Tao asked.
"Her hair was disheveled, and she was wearing white clothes. Oh, and there was a scar on her right arm. These things haven't changed." Yan Xiao answered with a guilty look on his face.
Walnut nodded and she asked again.
"Do you know that female ghost?"
"No, I don't know him. In this remote place, all kinds of ghosts run to the inn."
Lin Ye and Hu Tao frowned at the same time. It was obvious that Yan Xiao knew the female ghost and was hiding something. Lin Ye thought more and thought that Yan Xiao might be visited by the ghost of his past enemy.
"Do you still feel that the female ghost is staring at you now?" Hu Tao thought for a moment and asked.
Yan Xiao turned his head and looked around. Suddenly, he saw a girl at the door staring at him. Her messy long hair covered her eyes, but Yan Xiao still felt that he was being stared at. Her pale cheeks, blood-red lips, and toothy smile were creepy.
"Ah, ah!" The big man Yan Xiao let out a macho scream and backed away tremblingly.
The Eye of God on Lin Ye's waist glowed.
This sudden change made Lin Ye and the others stunned for a moment. The three of them immediately realized that there was something behind them through Yan Xiao’s reactions and turned around immediately.
Nothing.
Yan Xiao still looked frightened.
Lin Ye sighed and called for Guru to possess him. At this moment, his eyes became psychic and he was associating with the ghosts living in the world of the living.
Walnut also used the secret method of the Hall of Rebirth to allow herself to see hiding ghosts.
Xingqiu looked around and saw that Linye and Hutao were both taking action, which made him look stupid, so he had to go and comfort Yanxiao and tell her not to be afraid.
"She went up there." Guru told Lin Ye at this time.
Hu Tao didn't understand what Guru said, so she looked at Lin Ye, and Lin Ye told Hu Tao what Guru said.
"Chase!" Lin Ye and Hu Tao looked at each other and set off in tacit understanding. However, they were afraid that Yan Xiao would be killed after they left, so they pulled Yan Xiao upstairs with them.
Yan Xiao refused to go no matter what and let out screams, which attracted Philgodette. The boss, who was holding Awei the cat, saw Yan Xiao's cowardly look and asked him the reason helplessly.
"If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. If you can help Yan Xiao, please do so. I don't care."
Chapter 62 Please tell your story
"Oh, by the way, you should be careful in your actions. Maybe Yan Xiao scared himself, or maybe it was someone's prank." Philgodette said again.
Lin Ye and others nodded.
After obtaining the boss's permission, Lin Ye and Hu Tao rushed ahead and went up the stairs to the top floor. Xingqiu followed closely behind, pulling Yan Xiao, who had a bitter face.
Filgodette looked up at their backs and sighed.
Young people are energetic.
Wangshu Inn is located on a natural stone pillar. Its high terrain allows you to overlook the surrounding scenery.
Lin Ye and the others chased all the way to the balcony on the top floor of the inn, only to see the cold night and the inverted moon.
"The breath disappeared." Guru wondered to Lin Ye.
"That means he is hiding." Lin Ye concluded.
Hu Tao also did not find any trace of the female ghost, and the two searched everywhere but to no avail.
