Chapter 228

After Lin Shu You heard the movement and came out of the ward next door, seeing the girl who appeared here, he was stunned.

Yin Meng was also very surprised. She didn't expect Little Yuan Ge to bring A-Li over.

Actually, the reason A-Li didn't go out in the past was that her illness made her resist contact with outsiders, but A-Li wasn't unable to go out.

When the youth was in high school in Shigang, A-Li would often sit on Runsheng's tricycle, find a quiet alley to wait, and wait for the youth to finish school and go home together.

There weren't many people in the health center in the middle of the night, and the patients were all in their respective wards. When A-Li passed through the corridor earlier, her breathing was slightly rapid, but as long as the youth was by her side, she could fully bear it.

When Li Zhuiyuan went back and informed the girl of the situation, the girl immediately put down the things in her hand and proactively took the youth's hand.

As for whether this matter was a wave spray and whether it would involve A-Li, this didn't need to be worried about at all, because A-Li had always been walking the river with him.

Zhao Yi said that an old man with a lofty status in his family once had a dream, in which two dragons were swimming across the Nine Rivers.

That old man regarded it as an auspicious sign and directly overruled all objections, sending the invitation letter with the nature of a marriage proposal to Grandma Liu's hands.

The dream should be true, but the way of solving it should be wrong.

Li Zhuiyuan picked up the thread and handed it to A-Li.

A-Li took the thread and wrapped it around her fingertips.

After testing that this curse power was extremely sensitive and obsessed with spiritual thought, things suddenly became simple. After all, in this world, in terms of spiritual thought... whether in quantity or quality, there weren't many who could compare to A-Li.

As long as it could be lured out, then its existence wouldn't be any threat.

Li Zhuiyuan didn't worry that A-Li would suffer damage from the curse power, because every evil spirit figure in A-Li's dream could be understood as a curse seal. If any one of them were taken out alone, it wouldn't be something that the one in Liu Jinxia's body could compare to.

The formation was activated, A-Li closed her eyes, activated Yin-Walking, and entered the dream.

In an instant, the curse power in Liu Jinxia's body fell into madness. Almost without hesitation, it immediately came out of Liu Jinxia's body and transferred into A-Li's body along the thread.

Perceiving the curse power on her body, A-Li's face remained calm, and she didn't even frown.

Liu Jinxia, who had fallen into a deep sleep, began to vomit black water. Yin Meng immediately helped her up, let her vomit into the spittoon, and gently patted her back, fearing the old lady would choke.

This was Liu Jinxia's body beginning to detoxify after the curse power left her body.

Li Zhuiyuan looked at A-Li. A-Li opened her eyes, nodded to the youth, and a smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

"Mengmeng, A-You, you stay behind to clean up."

"Understood."

"Understood."

Li Zhuiyuan held A-Li's hand and left the health center. Runsheng pushed the tricycle out, carrying the two of them home.

Earlier, across the farmland, he could see the door of the east room open and the light on; after the tricycle reached the dam, he found the door closed and the light off.

A granddaughter going out at night, the old lady was worried, but she wouldn't let her concern add to the trouble.

For this, she even refused Qin Li's request to follow and accompany them to the distance according to the usual practice.

In the past, she only thought that if her granddaughter's illness could improve, it would be thanking heaven and earth. Now, she could already dream more dreams.

"Runsheng Ge, work hard to decoct the medicine according to this list, and then send it to the ward. This portion is for Grandma Liu, and this portion is for Auntie Xiang Hou."

Send the Buddha to the west. Liu Jinxia was saved by him, so he would just send a portion of decoction to recuperate. This was Li Zhuiyuan's specialty.

As for sending a portion to Auntie Xiang Hou, it was because the youth knew that Auntie Xiang Hou must have made more preparations in advance for tonight's "transfer."

The folk methods they figured out themselves had effects, but the side effects were also too fierce.

When he first returned to his hometown, Auntie Xiang Hou was exceptionally good to him because he was Li Lan's son. Li Lan didn't accept this favor, but he had to accept it, purely as one report for another.

"Alright, rest assured."

There was really no shortage of medicinal materials at home. If people didn't drink them, dogs would drink them.

Decocting medicine was a technical job, but it couldn't stump Runsheng. As long as the steps were clear, he had never made a mistake.

Just after lighting the coal stove and putting the pottery pot on it, Xiao Hei walked in yawning and sniffed at the pottery pot.

Runsheng patted its dog head: "It's not for you."

Hearing this, Xiao Hei simply lay down at Runsheng's feet, used Runsheng's shoe surface as a pillow, and went to sleep again.

This five-black dog was bought by Liu Yi herself.

It had always been supplied with good food, good drink, and good medicine. The more it was raised, the more sufficient its blood and energy became. On weekdays, the little bit of blood everyone needed was nothing to it.

The former puppy was now very sturdy. Clearly, it didn't like exercise, and apart from eating, it was sleeping, but the meat under its fur was truly firm.

Runsheng reached out and touched it, feeling like he was touching a strong calf.

Xiao Hei smacked its lips a few times, moved its body, and gave its belly to Runsheng, making it convenient for him to continue massaging it.

Li Zhuiyuan took A-Li back to his room on the second floor. The curse power had been absorbed, so it had to be dealt with.

It was just that the way of dealing with it depended on the specific situation.

The two sat opposite each other, holding hands, and both closed their eyes.

Li Zhuiyuan came into A-Li's dream.

Now, A-Li's dream was really much quieter. Standing in this flat-roofed house, he could no longer hear the hustle and bustle of the past, and even the small-scale chirping had disappeared.

The thick fog in the past hadn't disappeared, but it wasn't on the ground; it was all floating in the air, and the existence of black shadows in the fog could be vaguely seen.

This scene had a sense of the Buddhist Thunder Sound Temple scroll.

But those above weren't any heaven-filling gods and Buddhas; the reason they were high and above was purely because they didn't dare to come down.

When Li Zhuiyuan crossed the threshold and walked out, the fog above immediately rose rapidly, forming layers upon layers of clouds.

However, this time, Li Zhuiyuan's target wasn't them.

Having just stepped out of the threshold, he turned around and looked at the curse power huddled in the wall crack.

It had a head and four limbs, thin and small, like a monkey with a single eye.

At this moment, it was trembling, not at all showing its previous excitement.

Originally thinking it had found an organization, only after entering did it discover that the people in the organization... were living even more miserably.

Li Zhuiyuan approached it, his gaze freezing.

The single-eyed thin monkey immediately knelt down and began to kowtow.

Li Zhuiyuan squatted down, reached out and grabbed its small head, letting it raise its head.

In the single eye, various expressions kept changing and alternating. It seemed to still want to resist and launch a sneak attack on the youth, but it held back.

What kind of curse art could make the curse power itself possess self-consciousness, like a living thing?

Li Zhuiyuan deduced that this should be related to the sacrificial offerings when the curse was cast, and it was highly probable that the curse was cast with a living thing as a sacrifice.

Just at this moment, the single-eyed thin monkey, which had been bearing huge pressure, seemed to finally be unable to support it. A group of special light halos overflowed from its single eye; it was karma.

Very messy, very chaotic, as if various karmas of various periods and various components had been forcibly blended together.

This feeling was very much like the bodice Xin Jiyue used to store karma in the beginning.

Ordinary people of the mysterious gate wouldn't be stupid enough to touch this. Everyone thought about severing cause and effect to ensure cleanliness. Touching this and touching it so simply and crudely...

Li Zhuiyuan confirmed that this was a wave spray.

Tan Wenbin had already been arranged by him early to be responsible for a line in the Zhoushan Islands. Then the one in front of him was another line given to him by the river water.

If analyzed purely from a rational perspective, both clues were given quite intimately and clearly.

One was Xin Jiyue who took the initiative to send herself to the door, and one was Liu Jinxia who took the initiative to go outside and dye a curse back.

Even, between the first clue and the second clue, he could take time to take Great-Grandfather to Beijing for a tour.

In this wave, the river water gave a kind of tolerance and softness that had never been seen before.

This also meant that this wave was not simple.

It was just that, standing from the perspective of the question setter, it should be to pass the message of going to the Yancheng family to perform a dharma ritual to him through Liu Jinxia's death, leading to this line.

The question setter shouldn't have expected that he could successfully pull this curse power out.

Logically speaking, the death of the cursed person meant the dissipation of this curse power.

The youth turned his head and said to the girl standing at the threshold: "A-Li, I want to pull it out of your dream."

The girl nodded.

Li Zhuiyuan disappeared from the dream, opened his eyes, and returned to reality. The girl was still closing her eyes.

The youth took the wordless book, spread it to the second blank page, placed his right palm on it, and held the girl's hand with his left hand again.

Li Zhuiyuan returned to the girl's dream again.

The single-eyed thin monkey originally huddled in the wall crack had now run to the open space in front, constantly hissing at the "heaven-filling gods and Buddhas" above, as if begging them to give it a hand.

But those above were all playing dumb; no one dared to come down at this time.

Li Zhuiyuan walked out. The thin monkey prepared to slip away, but the youth just spread his left hand, black mist rose, and bound the thin monkey back.

Even now, Li Zhuiyuan didn't know what he had done to the Great Emperor of Fengdu in the dream of the dream ghost, but he knew very clearly that he had used the power of the *Twelve Dharma Decrees of Fengdu* in A-Li's dream time and time again, which was equivalent to "falsely transmitting the imperial decree" time and time again, splashing his river-walking water stains onto the Great Emperor time and time again.

Just based on this point, the Great Emperor hated him and wanted to kill him, which really wasn't unjust.

Li Zhuiyuan suspects that this is probably the reason why the Great Emperor, despite being in Fengdu, sits and watches his bloodline descendants wither day by day.

To existences like them, bloodline not only loses its inheritance meaning but instead becomes a flaw in their own karma.

But the Great Emperor didn't expect that the twelve dharma gates degenerated from the Yin family could be reverse-deduced back to the twelve dharma edicts by a young man; this can be called sitting at home, and the direct inheritance comes by itself.

Grandma Liu can vomit blood just by looking at a painting; the Great Emperor's dharma edict being used by him like a bamboo pole to stir vigorously in the river water shouldn't feel too good either.

The skinny monkey was desperately dragged in front of the young man.

The young man placed his right palm on top of its head.

In reality, the wordless book trembled slightly, and the "Evil Book," which was already in powder form on the first page, actually floated out another head at this time, looking curiously at the neighbor on the second page.

It was imagining what kind of sacred being this would be.

Soon, a picture appeared on the second page: it was a small iron cage with a monkey locked inside.

The "Evil Book" was very surprised, and then erupted with strong dissatisfaction.

This is the prison that holds me; how could even this kind of unranked thing be detained here?

Compared to the dissatisfaction of the Evil Book, the black shadows high up in A Li's dream collectively fell into panic.

They don't know the cause and effect, don't know that this time Li Zhuiyuan just used A Li's dream as a transit station, or a temporary shelter.

From their perspective, they saw the young man just take away something that already existed in the dream!

From the earliest days of holding a lantern to point the way and catch people, to fishing with a lantern, then directly detaining with the Fengdu dharma edict, this time it's better, it has become a directional prison transfer and detention; this young man can bring them different shocks every once in a while.

If it continues to develop according to this momentum, what will they become?

They were clearly here to kick someone when they were down, curse and intimidate the orphan; how did they almost become active visitors turning themselves in now?

At this moment, some black shadows have already begun to leave; they stayed here, originally waiting for an opportunity, hoping for a hope, but now things have become more and more uncontrollable.

This river-walking young man of the contemporary Qin and Liu families may not be as powerful as the Long Wang they faced in their era, but the young man's methods are making them feel desperate.

Li Zhuiyuan stood up, clapped his hands, and looked up at the sky.

Now he has things to do, and besides those who came actively like the black-robed person last time, the scum left here is no longer enough to meet the difficulty requirements of the questioner.

But this does not mean Li Zhuiyuan will let them go; he saw that some had already left.

It's just, what kind of place is this, coming when you want and leaving when you want?

Li Zhuiyuan walked back into the room and asked the girl standing there:

"A Li, you remember them all, right?"

A Li nodded.

That is the nightmare she has had to face since she was young; how could she not remember.

"Then wait a little longer, we will sweep them all clean together in the future."

Everyone who has come, everyone who has cursed, has left a mark; this is mutual. Since they can come over, A Li can also actively find and sense them.

The experience and cognition accumulated from fighting wits and courage with the questioner will not become useless because of the success of river-walking.

Li Zhuiyuan believes that his future self will have enough methods to help A Li deepen this causal relationship, making them have nowhere to hide.

When he becomes the Long Wang, his partners will also grow to a quite powerful level; at that time, he can send them to search and solve them separately.

And at that time, the shackles of river-walking karma will be gone, and Qin Shu and Liu Yi can also join, and even a Long Wang Order can mobilize forces similar to the Jiujiang Zhao in the world to help him carry out a big cleanup.

The young man is still young, even at the moment, he can still be called a "child," and because of this, he is too lazy to choose to believe in the wisdom of future generations.

He will personally clean up the remnants left by the Dragon Kings of the Qin and Liu families in the past.

In reality, the two opened their eyes at the same time.

Li Zhuiyuan's gaze looked at the second painting in the wordless book; the skinny monkey was nervous and felt terrified of the environment here.

At the same time, the young man also sensed the resentment from the first painting.

Flipping back to the first page, the skull's mouth was wide open, as if it were denouncing and protesting.

Li Zhuiyuan placed his finger on it.

It seems you have a lot of energy, then just use up today's deduction amount.

After the deduction ended, the skull turned into powder again, and it calmed down.

Li Zhuiyuan spread his right palm, and in the overflowing blood mist, the red silk thread could already be coiled and stacked.

This length is barely usable, but in normal combat, the partners' positions will be far apart, and it is impossible for everyone to be squeezed together, so this length must continue to be extended in the hope that it can cover the entire battlefield area.

Li Zhuiyuan looked again at the skinny monkey locked in the cage in the second painting; he found that the cage in the painting had not changed, but the skinny monkey in the cage had changed direction.

After the young man closed the wordless book and rotated it, then opened it, the sitting posture of the skinny monkey in the second painting had changed position again.

What changed was the orientation with the paper as the layout, but in reality, the skinny monkey's single eye has always been facing a fixed direction in reality.

Li Zhuiyuan took out paper and pen, first measured the direction and angle of the skinny monkey, and then floated the map in his mind.

Starting from his current area, drawing a line in this direction, towards the southeast, he can reach the Zhoushan Islands.

As for Yancheng, it is in almost the opposite direction.

Liu Jinxia caught the curse in Yancheng and came back; according to common sense, he should go to Yancheng first to find clues, then follow the vine to find the melon, but now... he can skip steps.

The young man closed the wordless book and patted the cover of the book lightly; this book is indeed a good thing, no wonder that scholar loved it and couldn't let it go even if he couldn't understand it.

Next, he can pack up and prepare to head to Zhoushan.

Li Zhuiyuan sent A Li downstairs and came to the east room; the room door was not locked, the girl pushed open the door and walked in, meeting the young man's eyes when closing the door.

Li Zhuiyuan returned upstairs to wash up and rest.

A Li walked to the bedside; in the past, she always slept on the inside of the bed, and Grandma slept on the outside.

Tonight, Grandma was lying on the inside, as if she were fast asleep.

A Li lay down on the outside.

Liu Yumei opened her eyes, a smile on the corner of her mouth.

A Li turned her head and looked at Grandma.

But soon, the girl turned her head back, staring at the beam above, never closing her eyes to sleep.

Liu Yumei picked up the thin quilt, gently covered it on her granddaughter, and said softly:

"Our A Li, do you also want to go out and accompany him..."

A Li didn't speak, her two hands placed on her abdomen gently twisted together.

"Grandma can tell, actually for Xiaoyuan, being able to see you when he comes home after going out every time is already satisfying, really."

A Li crossed her hands, and her fingertips quieted down.

"There will be such a day, when our A Li's illness gets better, you can go out with Xiaoyuan, let's not be anxious, take it slow."

A Li closed her eyes.

Liu Yumei stared at her granddaughter's exquisite and smooth side face.

Although Xiaoyuan is the successor of the Qin and Liu families, she has already treated the young man as her own child, but this does not affect her hope that her granddaughter can also stand on the river surface in person one day.

After all, the blood of the Qin and Liu families flows in her granddaughter's body.

Although the Qin and Liu families have an ancestral home, there is no saying of a hometown, because their home is on this river.

The old lady reached out and gently stroked her chest; she suddenly felt a bit fortunate, fortunate that Xiaoyuan and A Li are a boy and a girl, and the relationship between the two children has long been so intimate that even "childhood sweethearts" is not enough to describe it.

If they were really two children of the same sex, one supporting the household and the other getting better, no matter how reasonable both sides were, it would be hard to avoid causing some conflicts.

Now it's good, the conflict was nipped in the bud before it was born.

Liu Yumei laughed again unconsciously; these days are indeed getting better, she can even spare her mind to worry about internal strife.

In the past, this was something you didn't even have to think about, because even if you wanted to have internal strife, you couldn't even gather enough people at home.

Liu Yumei reached out and gently stroked the black silk on her granddaughter's cheek, and then she also closed her eyes.

She should sleep too; there is everything in dreams.

The next morning, Li Sanjiang walked out of the room; he woke up much earlier today than usual, and when going downstairs, he saw A Li walking upstairs.

"Morning, girl."

A Li stopped, looked at Li Sanjiang, and then continued walking upstairs.

Grandpa Shan also woke up, sitting up from the coffin.

The two drank too much last night; it's easy to get drunk when you have things on your mind, and by the same token, you don't stay drunk for long when you have things on your mind.

Li Sanjiang asked: "Shanpao, how was the inspection of the new house?"

Grandpa Shan: "Soft, spacious, although that girl has a bad temper, her craftsmanship is truly impeccable."

Li Sanjiang: "That's for sure, a craftsman won't starve in a famine year, isn't it much more solid than you always relying on heaven for food?"

Both are corpse-salvagers; Li Sanjiang switched to the upstream and downstream business of white affairs early on, so there are more opportunities to sit for rituals.

Grandpa Shan can only occasionally sit for rituals in the village, and most of his income still has to rely on salvaging corpses, but whoever drowns by jumping into the river or by accident won't greet you in advance or arrange a sequence table, it's really a business that relies on heaven for food.

"If the temper could be a little better, it would be great. I heard that women over there love spicy food and are also very feisty."

Li Sanjiang rolled his eyes at Grandpa Shan: "Those with soft personalities wouldn't dare to jump into a pit like yours, you damn well be content, and you still have the face to be picky."

Grandpa Shan didn't refute, climbed out of the coffin, and said: "It's just this child Runsheng, he is wooden, not as good as your Little Yuan Hou, whose brain is easy to use."

Li Sanjiang: "I think Runsheng Hou's brain is also quite good, knowing not to use his brain in front of smart people, which already surpasses too many 'smart people' in this world."

The two old men habitually talked trash, but as they talked, they both stopped, feeling it was boring.

Grandpa Shan: "Let's go, go pick her up."

Li Sanjiang nodded: "Pick her up home."

Having dealt with dead people a lot, the two old men know what the final burst of energy looks like better than doctors; it looks like the person is spirited, but in reality, the death aura has already permeated the corners of their eyes.

Yesterday, Liu Jinxia was in this state.

The two of them have eaten from this bowl their whole lives, so they naturally believe in their own judgment.

Grandpa Shan packed up the incense, candles, and paper money into a tattered cloth bag, while Li Sanjiang found two black veils and tied them for himself and Shanpao.

Liu Yi stood at the kitchen door, seeing the two old men come out, stopped the action of cracking melon seeds, and said: "Breakfast hasn't started yet, have to wait a while."

Li Sanjiang: "Don't need to make ours, we are going now, maybe we can still see Blind Liu for the last time."

Grandpa Shan: "Can make it, we'll eat after we pick her up home."

Li Sanjiang: "Shanpao, you still think about eating at this time?"

Grandpa Shan: "If I don't eat enough, how can I help her arrange the funeral?"

Li Sanjiang pushed the tricycle out, Grandpa Shan sat in the back, and the two old men left the dam.

Liu Yi spat out a melon seed shell; she felt Blind Liu shouldn't die, otherwise Xiaoyuan wouldn't have gone out to toss for so long last night, and even brought A Li.

Li Sanjiang and Grandpa Shan arrived at the ward door, pushed the door, and the door was locked.

Grandpa Shan immediately shouted: "No need to rush to lock the door even if the person is gone, where is the person, where is the person?"

Li Sanjiang also echoed: "Yes, open the door quickly, we are here to pick her up home."

The doctor and nurse were called over; hearing the commotion from the two old men, the doctor hurriedly asked the nurse who had left?

At this time, the ward door was opened.

Liu Jinxia stood at the door, with shyness and anger on her face.

This appearance actually startled Li Sanjiang and Grandpa Shan, thinking Blind Liu had risen from the dead.

But looking closely, they found that Blind Liu really hadn't died, and her spirit had returned to normal, and even the strange state of the final burst of energy from yesterday was gone.

Liu Jinxia apologized to the doctor and nurse, then glared at her two old friends, signaling them to come in.

Grandpa Shan: "Blind Liu, are you really better?"

Liu Jinxia: "Better, my life is hard, I dare not leave before you two."

Grandpa Shan: "I recognize you leaving after me, leaving after him, risky."

Li Sanjiang: "Hey, this is really strange, Blind Liu, did you accumulate great virtue somewhere before, which allowed you to make a turn before the gates of hell?"

Liu Jinxia: "Who knows, I haven't done anything against my conscience in my life."

Even if people came to ask her for blessings and talisman water, she would repeatedly urge them to follow the doctor's advice.

Li Sanjiang: "Then why did you not open the door for so long inside? Making Shanpao and me think you had already left and were stopped in the ward."

Getting angry upon hearing this, she was using the spittoon to relieve herself in the ward, and these two old things were knocking and knocking outside!

Liu Jinxia pointed at the two and said: "Good, how impatient you are, even the black veils are tied, really wanting to drink my funeral wine so badly."

Grandpa Shan immediately tore off the black veil.

Li Sanjiang wondered: "Hey, you can actually see."

Liu Jinxia: "My cataract surgery was done long ago."

Grandpa Shan: "Then why have you been pretending to be blind?"

Li Sanjiang gave Grandpa Shan's back of the head a chestnut: "You deserve to be poor, old boy!"

Liu Jinxia: "Not blind, wouldn't it not be effective, it was just to mix a meal."

Li Sanjiang took an envelope from his inner jacket pocket, filled with photos:

"Not blind is good, not blind is good, just right Shanpao is also here, come, let's look at the photos I took in the capital together."

Liu Jinxia wondered: "Weren't you here to collect my corpse this morning, and you actually brought these photos?"

Li Sanjiang: "Little Yuan Hou washed several copies for me, this copy you didn't see before you died, I originally intended to burn it for you."

Liu Jinxia was laughed at by anger: "Li Sanjiang, I thank you, really won't let me go even as a ghost."

Li Sanjiang "spat" and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, don't let Xiang Hou hear and misunderstand, I am a generation older than you, by the way, where is Xiang Hou?"

Liu Jinxia: "She slept with a stiff neck, her neck hurts, she went to find a doctor to help with bone setting."

After the doctor checked the ward, he was surprised at Liu Jinxia's recovery and advised her to stay in the hospital for a few more days of observation. Liu Jinxia refused and insisted on being discharged today.

Just like this, after Li Juxiang returned with a crooked neck, she went to handle the discharge procedures, and two tricycles carried four people back to Li Sanjiang's house.

Li Sanjiang ordered Liu Yi to make lunch rich today to celebrate Blind Liu's discharge.

Seeing Liu Yumei sitting there drinking tea, Blind Liu also approached subtly.

In the past, during leisure time, Blind Liu would also organize people to come here to play bridge with Liu Yumei.

Liu Yumei smiled: "It was really a disaster, fortunately you survived."

Liu Jinxia: "That's for sure, I thought I couldn't get past this hurdle."

Liu Yumei: "This is the blessing of your good deeds."

Liu Jinxia: "I dare not accept you saying that, it's purely heaven's protection."

Liu Yumei pushed the tea snacks in front of her to Liu Jinxia, signaling her to eat.

Liu Jinxia "responded" and was indeed hungry, so she picked up the tea snacks and ate them.

In the past, she relied on leftovers and tea to attract those old card friends to come and play cards with her; coming to Liu Yumei's place, it seemed like it was reversed.

People not only don't dislike her reputation for having a hard life and being unlucky, but the tea snacks are always different, and each one is delicious; it's just this tea, although she can't taste it, she also feels it's fragrant when drinking it.

Seeing Xiaoyuan come down, Liu Yumei waved to him, then said to Liu Jinxia that they would play cards in the afternoon, and then stood up and left her seat to enter the east room.

Li Zhuiyuan first chatted with Liu Jinxia for a few sentences, congratulating her on her recovery and discharge, and then entered the east room.

Liu Yumei went straight to the point: "Xiaoyuan, when do you think A Li can go out?"

Li Zhuiyuan: "In the future, don't be anxious, it shouldn't be too far."

Actually, last night's incident was just an insignificant episode; from an emotional perspective, Li Zhuiyuan doesn't want A Li to follow him on river-walking adventures.

Moreover, although A Li's condition has recovered a lot now, and when he is by her side, she can overcome it by avoiding crowds, but going out to walk the river is still not very realistic.

On the way to walk the river, you will not only encounter crowds; the last group of corpses, the group of ghosts under the general's tomb, these are all easy to cause A Li's condition reaction.

Liu Yumei nodded: "I think so too, but A Li wants to help you."

Li Zhuiyuan: "I know, and A Li has already helped me a lot, a lot."

Liu Yumei: "You have a plan in your heart, I am very relieved, you look at the arrangements for these things."

At this time, Qin Shu came in from outside; it was Liu Yi who asked him to come in to get ointment for Xiang Hou to apply.

Liu Yumei pointed at Qin Shu and said to Li Zhuiyuan:

"Not just A Li, like A Ting, and this A Li, you should also start planning and arranging; they are a bit stupid, but at least they have some strength."

Qin Shu's footsteps paused; he didn't know whether to continue into the room to get the ointment or stand in place and wait for arrangements.

Li Zhuiyuan: "Grandma, we are all family, there is no arrangement or not."

Liu Yumei waved her hand: "Without rules, there is no square; even if it is a family, there must be a head of the family to be peaceful. Grandma, I am hoping you grow up early so you can take over this burden."

"I will, Grandma."

At this time, there is no need to decline.

Liu Yumei looked at Qin Shu, her eyebrows raised: "Did you hear that?"

Qin Shu: "Heard it, I will convey it to A Ting."

Liu Yumei: "Where does A Ting need you to convey it, she understands, take care of yourself first."

Qin Shu: "Yes."

On the dam, Lin Shu was sitting on a small stool peeling edamame.

Yin Meng walked over, sat on the stool next to him, and reached out to grab a handful, intending to help him peel together.

Lin Shu immediately pulled that handful in front of himself: "Peeling this is easy to hurt your hands."

Yin Meng: "I don't cook, what are you afraid of?"

Lin Shu: "Bad luck."

Yin Meng secretly pulled Lin Shu's sleeve and whispered: "Did you notice, that Xiang Hou has been looking at you."

"Really?"

"Yes. I say, did she discover you?"

"I don't think so."

"When did she wake up."

"Runsheng sent us medicine, and when I fed her medicine, she woke up."

"Did she see you?"

"No, it was still dark then, she couldn't see my appearance, I warned her, saying if she dared to mess around and resist, I wouldn't be polite to her mother and daughter, and then she obediently drank the medicine."

"Did she recognize your voice?"

"I deliberately pinched my throat to change my voice, how could I make such a low-level mistake."

"Pinched your throat and changed your voice?"

"That's right, guaranteed she couldn't tell."

Yin Meng: "Come, read after me, Fuzhou."

Lin Shu: "Huzhou~"

Yin Meng shrugged.

Lin Shu: "Not standard? I never have an accent when I speak."

In an environment where everyone speaks Nantong dialect, speaking Mandarin is already very abrupt, not to mention Mandarin with a Fujian accent.

Yin Meng: "You go find Brother Xiaoyuan and confess yourself."

Lin Shu stood up, seeing Brother Xiaoyuan coming out of the east room, he immediately ran over.

After a while, Lin Shu sat back.

"Brother Xiaoyuan said, even if Xiang Hou suspected, but without definite evidence, the problem is not big, and she didn't say that she was knocked out by someone, it should be that seeing her mother's illness was better, she knew the mysterious person's intention, so she took the initiative to help keep it secret.

In addition, we are leaving for Zhoushan tomorrow to find Brother Bin and start solving this wave."

Yin Meng: "Then you'd better practice your Mandarin well, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed next time."

Lin Shu suddenly smiled; what Brother Xiaoyuan just said to him was more than that.

"Mengmeng, what number is this?"

Lin Shu spread his hands to Yin Meng, holding up ten fingers.

"Ten, what's wrong?"

Lin Shu held up four fingers to Yin Meng: "What number is this?"

"You are really childish, ten."

Life on the island is very boring; at the beginning, Tan Wenbin was fishing besides socializing.

The fish are being caught less and less, but the socializing is increasing more and more.

Because the number of people waiting here to board the ship to Wu Xin Island to "deliver goods" is constantly increasing.

This scale is clearly planned and organized by someone.

Among this group of people, there are those from the Northeast and those from Hainan, covering the whole country in the true sense.

And they generally have a characteristic, that is, their original sect family inheritance is very similar to Lin Shu's Official Generals, all following the route of spirit mediumship and inviting gods.

Originally, Tan Wenbin felt it was a pity not to bring Lin Shu along; with A You here, it might be better to get along.

But after he fanned the flames on both sides, making two people blush and move their hands, Tan Wenbin found that he had thought too much; it was good that he didn't bring Lin Shu.

Because this group of guys, spirit mediumship, inviting gods, calling immortals, all seemed to have effects, and the movement when fighting was not small, but he added the two god-sons on his shoulders, three pairs of eyes staring hard, and really couldn't see what was possessed on these two people.

Clearly nothing was invited down, yet they had the power of successful god-inviting.

After some undercover communication, Tan Wenbin discovered another common characteristic of this group of people; they were basically expelled for making mistakes in their sect families.

Some cut off incense with immortals, some had their names erased from the temple register, which is to say, unless they could be like Lin Shu, letting the White Crane Master Tongzi jump ship, otherwise they actually lost the qualification for spirit mediumship and inviting gods.

If Lin Shu had been brought, he would have performed a proper spirit mediumship, inviting a Yin God, and instead become an absolute alien in the field.

Once a person has tasted the taste of that power, it is very difficult to accept the days of losing it; at this time, someone appears and says they can return this power to you, then it is really okay to do anything.

The few people Tan Wenbin knew at the beginning were quite simple and honest, especially the woman named Xin Jiyue, who truly believed she was acting chivalrously and punishing evil and promoting good.

The batch of people who came later had richer karma, and their personalities were more extreme and distorted; it was clear that this was treating "acting chivalrously" as a business, and in order to obtain more karma, they didn't hesitate to deliberately extremize and expand.

Although his own Brother Xiaoyuan also likes to cancel accounts, none of them are innocent, but they are just thinking about canceling accounts and collective punishment, fearing that the karma involved is not deep enough.

The day of boarding the island is getting closer and closer, and new disputes have also appeared.

There have actually been incidents of forming cliques to snatch karma artifacts in the hands of others, and it is getting worse.

What's more ridiculous is that when they fight and snatch from each other, they will shout "You have deep karma, I am punishing you on behalf of heaven!"

The first targets to be fought and snatched were those guys who still retained a simple sense of justice; they often acted alone and had relatively ordinary strength.

Tan Wenbin has been busy everywhere these two days, but he saved quite a few.

It's mainly because he knew these guys early; although what they did was relatively rough, they really couldn't be considered bad people in their bones, and their simple and honest personalities were also easy to use.

But what Tan Wenbin didn't expect was that because he formed a small group after saving people, people gradually began to actively lean towards him, wanting to join and seek protection.

At night, fish was being grilled on the campfire.

Tan Wenbin sat there, his face illuminated by the campfire, flickering.

On the periphery, three people sat, and further out, six people sat; this didn't count the people Tan Wenbin arranged to keep watch at night.

Xin Jiyue walked over and said to Tan Wenbin: "Brother Bin."

"What's wrong?"

"The heads of those few groups sent people to pass a message, saying they want to invite Brother Bin to hold a meeting and negotiate tomorrow morning."

"I know, you help me watch this place first, I'm going to the village below."

"Brother Bin, you are going alone?"

"Don't worry, I can hide the karma on my body, it's very safe."

Actually, Tan Wenbin has no karma on his body at all; people who walk the river, even if they have residues on their bodies, will be dissolved by merit after a wave.

There is a phone in the village; Tan Wenbin is going to make a call.

Before, he made a standard page to Brother Xiaoyuan every three days to inform Brother Xiaoyuan that he was still alive.

There have been many things these two days, and the situation is changing fast; he feels he must make a formal call to Brother Xiaoyuan to report.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, if you don't come again, I'm going to become a boss."
