He became a zombie, his body was cold and stiff. Qiqi herself was also aware of this, as was Hu Tao, who was eating silently beside Lin Ye and was fanatically obsessed with burying Qiqi.
In addition, Qiqi has a bad memory.
Death is something that people are extremely afraid of. To put it bluntly, people are afraid of losing what they cherish.
For example, the world you love, or the people or things you love.
Even if he was as powerful as the Rock King, he would also be worn out, and one day in the future, he would face death in a certain sense. In the Demon God War, he could not let those who did not want to die survive.
Therefore, Lin Xiaofeng's move was doomed to be in vain.
In fact, by the third period, Lin Xiaofeng was in despair and fell seriously ill and was bedridden.
Lin Ye thought of Lin Xiaofeng's apology.
A middle-aged man who had been full of vigor and vitality in the first half of his life, after encountering a sudden change, lay alone in bed, enduring both physical and mental torture.
If it were him, would he still have the desire to live?
First, his wife died one night when he happened to be away from home. Then he suspected that his lover had killed his own flesh and blood. After destroying his child, he realized that he was wrong. Finally, he fell seriously ill and the only person who could save him had died.
All this seems like a tragedy of coincidence, a stage tragedy that seems to have been planned.
Lin Xiaofeng's family was destroyed.
However, Lin Ye came. Lin Ye, who was far away in Ao Zang Mountain, was "resurrected". He returned to the Lin family. Zun Xin's physique triggered the phantom, which also allowed Lin Xiaofeng to survive.
After listening to Lin Bo's story, Lin Ye broke out in a cold sweat.
The system has told him another truth. Mu Xiaojin's bizarre death is in disguise a conspiracy.
"...By the way, Uncle Lin, did you know that a fortune teller came to our house last month? It was the day my mother passed away. Think about it carefully."
Lin Ye carefully reviewed everything that happened in the Lin family, starting with his mother's death, and discovered a clue.
After Mu Xiaojin passed away, the original owner Lin Ye was thrown into Ao Zang Mountain without ever being in the study. It all happened within a day. This can only mean that someone told the grieving Lin Xiaofeng that day that someone had killed his wife.
That fortune teller!?
Lin Ye remembered that day when he was woken up. His father was so grief-stricken that he was immersed in the fact of his wife's death like a lunatic. He had no time to think about how Mu Xiaojin died, let alone find a fortune teller to calculate his son's fate for no reason.
I should have suspected him a long time ago!
Lin Zhizhi was annoyed.
"A fortune teller? Let me think... On the day my wife passed away, there was indeed a person I didn't know who came to our house. I have been in the Lin family for most of my life, and I know everyone who comes in and out here, but I don't know that person."
"What does he look like?" Lin Ye blurted out and asked hurriedly.
Hu Tao, who was eating at the side, pricked up one ear. Although she was just eating in silence, Master Hu had also been listening to Uncle Lin's story. Now listening to Lin Ye's words, it seemed that there were some new clues?
"He's wearing a long blue gown and reading glasses. He looks about the same age as the master. Oh, and he has long, dishevelled hair. He doesn't look very clean."
"No."
Lin Ye and Kurumi spoke at the same time, then looked at each other.
"What's wrong?" Lin Bo wondered.
"A fortune teller. I heard from Master Hu that there is a very powerful fortune teller in Liyue Harbor. I thought he was the one who came to our house, but Uncle Lin, what you said doesn't match what Master Hu said."
"Oh, yes, yes, yes." Hu Tao immediately echoed.
"So that's how it is. I was just saying it casually, young master. You don't need to explain." Uncle Lin said with a kind smile.
He had a vague sense of something, but since the young master didn't say anything, it was best for the servant not to ask. All he could do was to keep an eye on the master and make sure the young master didn't suddenly disappear again.
"By the way, Master Hu came to the Lin Mansion because the young master invited you to be a guest, right?" Uncle Lin's gaze fell on Hu Tao again and he asked the question that he had been holding back for a long time, with a warning from an old man in his eyes.
Hu Tao had been to the Lin family to preside over the funeral, so Uncle Lin naturally recognized her.
In fact, when Uncle Lin saw Hu Tao and Lin Ye standing together for the first time, he thought that Lin Ye was taking Hu Tao to the Lin Mansion to prepare for the master's funeral.
"Uncle Lin, I want to ask you one more thing."
"What is it, Master?"
"My mother, do you know if she has any relatives?"
"Relatives? Young Master, you may not know that after Madam got married, she would return to Qingce Manor every year. There was a couple there who took care of Madam, and Madam recognized them as her biological parents, but unfortunately they passed away before you were born."
"After that, the Madam didn't associate with anyone else. She wasn't like other rich ladies who would get together to play mahjong or go shopping for rouge. She didn't have many friends. When the master wasn't at home, she would read in the study."
After listening to this, Lin Ye pictured Mu Xiaojin's daily life in his mind.
Lonely and leisurely.
Before Uncle Lin could finish his words, after Lin Ye himself was born, Mu Xiaojin had one more thing added to his daily routine - entertaining the child.
This is the dark history that Lin Ye covered his face and didn't want to recall.
After dinner, Lin Ye and Hu Tao went to find Shen He.
"Do you doubt the fortune teller?" asked Walnut.
"Yes." Lin Ye told Hu Tao his speculation, of course omitting the fact that he had died and resurrected.
"Evil ghosts can't pretend to be normal people. Their aura is too difficult to conceal. Ordinary people will feel uncomfortable if they are five meters away from them." Walnut analyzed, "In this case, the fortune teller may have reached some kind of contract with the evil ghost to frame you."
"But why did the other party go to so much trouble to harm your father? Why not just do it directly?"
“No one knows.” Lin Ye complained.
"Since my cheap father believes in fortune-telling, it means that he must be famous. In your memory, is there anyone who matches your name?"
"I know a little but not in depth. After all, we are in different professions. Fortune telling predicts things before and after life, while I, the hall master, am concerned with things after death and things that have already happened. Well, go ask old man Zhongli. Hehe, there is one more question. I should find him something to do... Alas."
"Why are you sighing?" Lin Ye wondered.
"Lin Ye, after this matter is resolved, I don't want Mora anymore. I want you... Hey, don't get me wrong. I mean you should work with me. The benefits are very good."
"For you, a quality customer, ahem, an excellent employee, I must catch the evil ghost and teach him a lesson to avenge you. Anyone who dares to bully me, humph."
"Lin Ye, I really think you are suitable for our line of work. You are not afraid of funeral matters, you are bold and careful, and you have great potential."
Lin Ye rolled his eyes, he was just greedy for Sajia's body.
Faced with Hu Tao's second olive branch, Lin Ye sighed a little, wishing that the offer had come so easily in his previous life.
Lin Ye had considered joining the Wangsheng Hall. He had left the treasure-stealing group, and in order to earn raw stones for daily tasks, he needed to join another profession.
The Adventurer's Association, the Hall of Rebirth, the Thousand Rock Army...
Lin Ye still needs to consider this further.
"I am deeply honored by your invitation. However, as the head of Wangsheng Hall and a part-time HR, don't you have a few questions for me? This makes me doubt the strength of your hall."
Lin Ye played a reverse PUA card against Hu Tao.
Walnut was stunned.
Chapter 10 The old man has a bad waist
While Hu Tao was doubting herself, Lin Ye and she came to the room where Shen He was.
Before entering the door, I could hear the hustle and bustle inside.
It was mainly a one-sided output from an old woman. Shen He's face showed a rare expression of discomfort and helplessness. He huddled in a corner, pitiful and helpless, listening to the old woman's nagging.
"Miss Shen He, let me tell you another interesting story about the young master's childhood. When he was six years old, he was so handsome and had long hair. Madam..."
"Granny Zhang! Stop! Stop!!"
Granny Zhang is also a hired worker in the family and has been there for decades. Uncle Lin is in charge of the male workers, while Granny Zhang is in charge of the women. She also helps with housework and is very decisive in her work.
Lin Ye, who was gloating over the misfortune of others and turned into a fun-loving person, wanted to see more of Shen He's rare side.
In the end, all Granny Zhang talked about was Lin Ye’s dark history that he couldn’t bear to recall.
Oh my god, the clown is actually me.
"Ah! Young Master is here. You look thinner. I heard from Lao Lin that you were back. I was going to help you clean up your room, but I saw Miss Shen He staying here alone."
"That won't do! If it gets out, people will laugh at our Lin family for not being considerate in managing people. So I'll chat with Miss Shen He and talk about family matters, which will definitely make her feel as lively as if she were back home." Grandma Zhang said confidently.
Isn't it home?
Lin Ye finally understood Shen He and Gan Yu's panic yet resolute feelings when they were talking to Zhenjun about family matters.
When talking about his dark history in front of his friends, Lin Ye's heart twisted into a cocoon, screaming and hesitating.
"I heard your loud voice even outside the door." Lin Ye smiled bitterly, "Okay, Grandma Zhang, I want to chat with my friends, you go ahead and do your work."
"Well, Miss Shen He, next time I will tell you about the time when the young master was nine years old..."
"Cough cough!"
Granny Zhang curled her lips and left in a decisive manner.
"What did the old woman tell you?" Hu Tao approached curiously. She had been humiliated by Lin Ye, so naturally she wanted to find something bad about Lin Ye, otherwise how could she be the boss?
"That grandmother was very welcoming," Shen He said to Hu Tao, "We just talked about some ordinary things."
At the same time, Shen He was also a little confused. She had a cold temperament and ordinary people would not take the initiative to talk to her when they saw her. However, when Granny Zhang saw her, her eyes lit up and she asked about her relationship with Lin Ye.
friend?
Lin Ye explained this to his family.
Shen He felt a little awkward in answering.
Unexpectedly, Granny Zhang's expression became more ambiguous and the conversation became more intense, making Shen He unable to resist.
When Lin Ye heard that Shen He had intentionally concealed the truth, he immediately burst into tears.
Sure enough, everyone had the same experience and no one made things difficult for anyone else.
Seeing that Shen He didn't want to talk, Hu Tao didn't try to embarrass herself.
Humph, after that she can just go and ask Granny Zhang, she will definitely be able to get a lot of information and threaten Lin Ye to join Wangsheng Hall to expand and strengthen their business together.
"Lin Ye, I have something to give you." Shen He suddenly said, and she took out a talisman and handed it to the other party.
Lin Ye took it curiously and found that it was an ice-blue talisman with an image he could not understand.
"This is a talisman I made in my spare time. I didn't make much preparations before going down the mountain. This is my best masterpiece. There is a talisman spirit inside. At the critical moment, just shout 'pardon!' The talisman spirit will protect you."
"Thank you." Lin Ye put it away solemnly.
He is stuck at level 20 and must light up the Eye of God to start the breakthrough stage, and the [Bronze Flower] mission is the key.
Hu Tao looked at Shen He, then at Lin Ye, and holding Youyou alone, inexplicably felt that she was redundant.
Next, Lin Ye and the others planned to go to Grandma Ping to hand over the things to Master Liuyun Jiefeng.
On the Yujing Terrace, Grandma Ping had a kind face. When Shen He saw Grandma Ping, he took out the brocade bag and gave it to her.
"Grandma Ping, Master asked me to give this to you." Shen He said.
"You are Shen He, you are indeed a well-behaved child. Thank you for running so far this time. How is your master these days?"
"Master still likes to study mechanisms in the cave as before." Shen He replied.
Lin Ye on the side observed Grandma Ping curiously. This old woman who looked no different from an ordinary old woman was actually Ge Chenlangshi Zhenjun, the master of Xiangling and Yaoyao.
"Grandma...Hutao! Why are you here again!"
At this time, a girl with crimson hair came over and greeted Grandma Ping warmly, but when she saw Hu Tao, her expression became unfriendly and she grabbed Hu Tao and asked.
Hu Tao waved her hands quickly, "Hey, Yan Fei, don't get me wrong. I'm not here to sell something this time. I'm here with a friend to deliver something."
Yan Fei, a half-immortal, is the best legal consultant in Liyue Harbor. Her parents left her in the care of Grandma Ping and traveled around the country.
"Master Hu is right," Grandma Ping explained for Hu Tao with a smile, "Yan Fei, how come you have time to come and see an old woman like me?"
With Granny Ping's assurance, Yan Fei reluctantly believed what Hu Tao said. She raised the "Liyue Hundred Laws General Rules" in her hand and replied, "I just finished a commission and happened to pass by to see you, Granny. I didn't expect to meet this guy."
As she said that, Yan Fei glared at Hu Tao.
"By the way, grandma, what did you give me as a gift?"
Lin Ye and Hu Tao's ears pricked up at the same time. They were both curious but didn't dare to ask.
"It's nothing. As I get older, my back tends to ache all day long. I asked a friend to make something that can be used to massage my back." Grandma Ping said with a smile.
I didn't expect that Master Liuyunjiefeng would take on this job. Lin Ye had learned something new.
