MTL - Begin Immortality By Slaying Demons

Chapter 25 The Lin Family Matters

 “I got it, let’s get to work.”

 After hearing what the other party said, Shen Yi just tapped his chin.

He had expected this scene since the incident on Willow Street yesterday, when he was blinded.

Liu Dianli's way of dealing with the situation can be described as methodical, worthy of being an old guy who has been around for so many years.

If he stayed behind closed doors, Shen Yi would become a joke to everyone in the county. He could only bow his head and accept their conditions. If he kept the door open... wouldn't he be a fool?

How can anyone in the world be willing to make an enemy of a demon for no reason? It’s so-called shooting the first bird, and there is no money to earn, so why risk your life?

 The only thing Liu Dianli did not consider was...

 Shen Yi can really benefit from killing monsters.

Not only that, but it is far better than real money and silver, that is real longevity.

 So Shen Yi felt no disturbance at all.

 Even if there is an idea, it will only be a hint of joy.

"you…"

 Chen Ji always felt that the other party didn't listen to what he was saying at all. This was a serious matter that could lead to death!

 After a moment, he reluctantly lowered his hand and placed it on the scabbard at his waist.

What's going on in this world? A few days ago, I was still denounced for the other party's misbehavior. In just a few days, I turned into a lobbyist.

 Recalling the figure of Shen Yi standing alone in front of the village, this person is not a talker.

Chen Ji laughed at himself and tightened his grip on the knife... He had to work harder on saving his dowry.

 “How much dowry does your family need to marry a daughter-in-law?”

 “What?” Shen Yi turned around in confusion.

"Nothing, just asking." Chen Ji took a deep breath and quickly shook off the inexplicable thoughts in his mind. One code after another, the other party was barely a good catcher, but his private life was so messed up, tsk, But you can't push your sister into the fire pit.

 Fortunately the other party didn't hear clearly...

 “Actually, I like someone who is more mature.”

Shen Yi shook her head, remembering the Song family's sister-in-law's generosity for a moment.

Before Chen Ji could react, he walked slowly into the class room.

“No, is this settled?”

Zhang Dahu jumped up and down anxiously and shouted at the two big men squatting at the door of the house: "You two are mute! Speak!"

The Niu brothers have been dissatisfied with Master Shen for a long time, and now they feel like a dull gourd.

 “My wife didn’t even let me into the house yesterday.”

Niu Da was scratching the back of his head in a naive manner. When the news spread that he had followed a girl named Shen, the backyard almost caught fire, as if he had really occupied some girl.

“This morning, while I was still asleep, she suddenly...hehe...hehe..."

As he spoke, Niu Da suddenly became silly and rubbed his crotch vigorously.

　　　…” Zhang Dahu.

  …” Chen Ji.

Shen Yi glanced over helplessly and said calmly: "Open the courtyard door."

 Under normal circumstances, ordinary people would never come to the yamen easily, let alone the prison guard under the notorious Master Shen.

 But Shen Yi was not in a hurry.

He has seen the despair of the Liu family and his daughter. As long as it involves demons, they will never let go of any life-saving straw. The world has left them no other choice.

 As soon as the courtyard door is opened, a notice is posted.

This courtyard became the only "Fuyao Yamen" in Baiyun County, and Chen Ji and Zhang Dahu were arranged to go out to inquire about information, and they would change shifts with the Niu brothers every three hours.

Shen Yi closed her eyes and fell asleep to recuperate her energy.

Somewhat unexpectedly, in just half a day, someone came to the door. The person who came was a thin, middle-aged man with dark skin, and he looked like he had done rough work.

 He carefully put his head in.

 The faces of the Niu brothers in the courtyard changed instantly, and they all stood up straight. Even Niu Da, who was still giggling before, now has a bit more uneasiness in his eyes.

 Killing demons and killing demons is just two words of opening and closing the mouth. The problem is that they have never really done this in Baiyun County for so many years.

“Master Shen, I have some evil news.”

 The thin middle-aged man swallowed nervously, his eyes flickering, and under the leadership of the Niu brothers, he carefully stepped into the house.

 “What kind of monster, tell me quickly.” Niu Er stared at it nervously.

"No, no...it's not a demon, it's an evil spirit." The thin middle-aged man waved his hand quickly.

Hearing this, Shen Yi slowly sat upright.

Having been here for several days, including the memories of his predecessor, this was the first time he got news about evil spirits.

 “Don’t be in a hurry, speak slowly.”

Looking at Shen Yi's calm eyes, the middle-aged man felt much calmer. Yesterday, he listened to the oil seller's nonsense and thought he was drunk. How could Master Shen be so gentle to him? When they saw him today, he actually... I believe it a bit.

“I didn’t bump into that evil spirit, my mother-in-law did.”

He tried hard to organize his words: "Since about a month ago, every time when it gets dark, I take a shower in the courtyard, and my mother-in-law lights a candle in the room and combs her hair in front of the mirror."

 “He was combing his hair and smiling at the same time, as if he was possessed.”

 “This is nothing.”

The middle-aged man's face became increasingly ugly: "One night, I woke up from peeing. I stretched out my arms to hold my hand, and when I went out to look for it, guess what, she was standing at the door wearing floral clothes, her hair was wet, and her neck was covered with blood. Khan, I dared to slap her, and when she saw it was me, she screamed, her voice sounded like she had seen a ghost."

“She said she didn’t know how she got up and had no memory at all.”

"And from that day on, I was not in good spirits. No matter how early I went to bed, I would always sleep until dawn. This must be an evil spirit possessing her body and sucking my yang energy, Mr. Shen! My mother-in-law I made some medicinal soup for me, but it still didn’t work. The more I drank, the more sleepy I became.”

 Listening to the middle-aged man's vivid description, Shen Yi's expression gradually became weird.

“And she doesn’t have **** with me anymore. She smiles crazily all day long, and the more she looks at her, the more horrifying she becomes.”

"The most terrifying thing is that my business was not good yesterday, so I closed my stall a little early and went home, and I heard her in the house with her throat broken, and she kept shouting for mercy...Have you ever heard the sound of killing a pig? It's like that …”

Looking at the middle age, I still have to improvise a paragraph.

Shen Yi frowned slightly, glanced at the Niu brothers, and said helplessly: "You two go out alone and deal with this evil spirit for him."

 “Humble position and accept orders.”

The Niu brothers looked at the middle-aged man sympathetically and took him out.

 Shen Yi leaned back on the wicker chair again and gently pressed the center of her eyebrows.

It seems that it is not that easy to pick up some leaks in the city.

Originally, when the monsters entered Baiyun County, they were all accompanied by their predecessors. Now that the group of dog monsters have been killed, the news must have spread among the monsters, and it will be difficult to catch fish or something.

At this moment, a figure hurriedly broke in.

 Chen Ji stood still out of breath, with a solemn expression. Even though he deliberately lowered his voice, he could not hide the shock in his heart.

 “Master Shen, Liu Qi is dead.”

Hearing this, Shen Yi raised his eyes and looked up.

 If I remember correctly, the other party mentioned this name once.

 Liu Qi, the inaugurated monument.

　　 is an offering brought by the Lin family from Qingzhou.

 It is the Lin family where Lin Baiwei lives.
