Chapter 198 Where is Jiang Yao

Yin Li explained: "My hair is white during the day and turns black at night."

Hu Xin'er was half-believing and half-doubting: "Why do I feel like you dyed your hair secretly?"

Yin Li picked up a strand of his hair and waved it in front of Hu Xiner.

The color and smell are no different from ordinary hair.

There was obvious disdain in his eyes, as if he was saying, "You are a painter, but you can't even tell whether there is dyeing or not?"

Hu Xin'er looked at it carefully for a while: "Then why is your hair like this?"

Yin Li looked off into the distance, a hint of sadness between her usually arrogant brows, as if lost in memories: "That's a long story..."

With nothing else to do, Hu Xin'er just listened quietly.

Yin Li said slowly, "I was originally a small beast in the mountains. I was saved by a woman. After cultivating for a hundred years, I became a spirit. I came down the mountain to find the woman and reincarnate to repay her kindness."

"Ah?" A question mark slowly appeared in Hu Xiner's head.

At the same time, looking at the Taoist priest on the high platform, he felt a little excited.

Is it possible that from today on, she will step into the world of cultivating immortals?

"You never thought there really are gods, ghosts, and monsters in this world." Yin Li glanced at her. "Are you scared?"

Although she was indeed somewhat shocked, Hu Xin'er was not willing to lose in front of him. She pretended to be disdainful and said, "I have read more fairy tale novels than you have eaten salt!"

Perhaps Yin Li was thinking of the past, so she was not as domineering as usual and just smiled faintly.

Hu Xin'er took the opportunity to raise a question: "So, you really have lived for over 200 years? But after practicing in the human world for over 200 years, how come you can't even control your hair color?"

Yin Li's eyes showed a look of melancholy. "That day, I finally transformed into a human, and then I found Mo Niang's reincarnation. When she saved me, she was a rich lady from Jiangzhou. In this life, her name remains the same, but she's just a fisherman's daughter, her hands covered in calluses."

"So you abandoned her?" Gou Zi said shockingly.

"How is that possible?" Hu Xin'er and Yin Li retorted at the same time.

The rain in Jiangzhou in July hits the covered boat like dancing beads, splashing ripples on the surface of the river.

Yin Li was a river ferryman. The oil-paper umbrella in his hand could no longer withstand the beating of the rain, and many ribs were slightly broken.

In such bad weather, no one dared to sail. They all hid in their tented boats or went ashore and returned home, not receiving any passengers.

Only Mo Niang, whose family was poor and who made her home on a boat, came out wearing a straw raincoat and asked crisply, "Are you going to cross the river, my guest?"

Yin Li's gaze fell on her face. The little demon who had just transformed had a deep and clear look in his eyes, filled with curiosity.

He followed Mo Niang onto the boat. When he put his umbrella into the cabin, Mo Niang smiled and said, "Sir, the Mulan on this umbrella is really beautifully painted."

Magnolia, this was his benefactor's favorite flower.

Yin Li knew that it was her.

He stayed on Mo Niang's boat for seven days, and then invited the dragon from the river to come and drive the fish, shrimps and crabs towards Mo Niang.

To make her life less hard, at least she could build a small house on the shore and repair the leaky awning.

He also salvaged jewels that had sunk to the bottom of the water and hid them in the belly of a fish, making Mo Niang believe that they were treasures sent by God.

"Huh?" Hu Xin'er was a little surprised. "From your tone, it's clear that you like her very much, so why don't you just promise to marry her?"

Yin Li lowered her eyes, unable to see his expression clearly: "For a hundred years, I have thought about her day and night, how could I not have feelings for her? But if I marry a monster, it would be a humiliation to her."

In the previous life, the little demon who had not yet transformed stood on the top of the mountain, gazing at the young lady's sedan chair from afar.

She should have been a well-fed and well-clothed, pampered young lady.

He would be satisfied if he could just glance at the little demon occasionally.

Hu Xiner felt a little emotional. It turned out that Yin Li, who was so arrogant, had also been so humble in front of his sweetheart.

Secret love always makes people feel inferior.

Yin Li suddenly chuckled: "Just when I was leaving, she called me."

Mo Niang said that she loved Yin Li.

Yin Li couldn't help it and turned around.

After all, she is the person he holds dearest to his heart.

Hu Xiner looked at his appearance and had to admit that he did have the potential to make women fall in love with him.

Later they got married and lived a prosperous life.

When Yin Li talked about this time, happiness overflowed from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. However, she didn't know what she was thinking about, and her eyes gradually became sinister.

"At this time, we rescued a seriously injured and dying monk."

Hu Xiner had a bad feeling: "Could it be..."

Yin Li said coldly, "After he woke up, he pretended nothing happened, but secretly drugged our food, forcing me to reveal my true form and scaring Mo Niang to death!"

The dog let out a small cry of surprise: "Oh my God, this monk is so evil!"

"The monk originally wanted to take advantage of my mental distress to capture me and use me to make elixirs, but he didn't expect that I would be so furious that I would slap him to death with one palm."

"You went looking for Mo Niang's new reincarnation?" Hu Xin'er speculated. "That's why you kept running the Wanjuan Pavilion, hoping to be reunited with Mo Niang in every life."

Yin Li smiled faintly, laughing at her foolishness: "The one I met was the rich lady, and the one I fell in love with was the fisherwoman Mo Niang. Even if they were reincarnated, they would no longer be the same person. After killing the monk, I heard that Meng Po was a little short of money..."

Yin Li made a deal with Meng Po using her heart pill.

Heart Pill, hearing the name, Hu Xiner knew that it should be a very important thing for the monster.

When Yin Li said this, he fell into a long silence.

Hu Xin'er couldn't help but ask, "What happened next?"

Yin Li laughed again, not knowing whether she was mocking herself or Hu Xiner.

"Mo Niang is alive, but she has forgotten me. Since I lost my heart pill, I have become a ghost, neither human nor ghost. I can only spend my days in this ghost market, away from the world."

He told the story so vividly that even the wind was silent as it listened to this tragic love story.

Hu Xin'er couldn't help but say, "You can go find her!"

Yin Li shook her head: "I am not a good man, so why should I waste her life? After all, this relationship was wrong from the beginning."

He choked up a little, "I wonder what Mo Niang has become in this life? I asked the King of Hell, and she should be living a good life."

Hu Xiner couldn't help but be moved to tears.

But as she wiped her tears, she suddenly felt something was wrong: "The goblin repays a favor, is harmed by the monk, and then reveals its true form and scares the benefactor to death. Isn't this the plot of the Legend of the White Snake?"

When he looked up, Yin Li burst out laughing.

Hu Xiner was so angry that she wiped away tears and pushed him off the rock.

But Yin Li held her stomach and rolled over with laughter: "Hahaha, you believe this!"

Hu Xiner couldn't stand it any longer and didn't want to look at this weirdo for even a second.

At this moment, the Taoist priest on the high platform slowly opened his eyes, and a faint light spread around him.

Hu Xiner walked closer to test it out and found that the barrier was gone!

She hurried forward and said, "Master Yiqing, may I ask where Jiang Yao is?"
