Chapter 56 There are always people who want to harm me

"Ye Xingzhou, are you still breathing?"

The moment he heard the voice, Ye Xingzhou was still confused.

Who else but Meng Zhi could greet me so politely!

Needless to say, the one who blinded him was definitely Ren Wangzhu.

But the body's instincts react much faster than the brain.

How can that be possible if someone is blindfolded?

What if they were trying to murder him?

There are always villains who want to harm me!

Ye Xingzhou threw a fierce elbow with his backhand.

Eighteen consecutive punches in three seconds.

"You'll be allowed to blind me! You'll be allowed to murder me!"

"Ah! Senior Brother! It's me!"

Ren Wangzhu's screams awakened Ye Xingzhou's remaining conscience, and Ye Xingzhou stopped.

"Junior brother?"

Only then did he see Ren Wangzhu who had retreated to the door. At this moment, Ren Wangzhu was covering his chest with his hands, tears about to burst out.

"Junior brother!"

Ye Xingzhou's eyes lit up and he reached into his arms.

“Senior Brother!”

"Junior brother!"

“Senior Brother!”

Ren Wangzhu ran over with his arms open, but before he could get close to Ye Xingzhou, he was blocked by a mirror.

In the mirror was an enlarged version of his face, his eyes and brows still young and childish.

"Brother? What are you doing?"

Ren Wangzhu was puzzled. Ye Xingzhou glanced at the unchanged mirror and then put his hand on his shoulder.

"Senior Brother asked you to look in the mirror so that you can face your shortcomings, accept your strengths, and play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses."

"I understand, brother."

Ren Wangzhu followed Ye Xingzhou obediently and let him put his hand on his shoulder.

Only then did Meng Zhi walk in slowly, like an old man taking a stroll.

Seeing Ye Xingzhou looking at him with a mirror, he just glanced at him and then looked away.

"You're handsome again, little brother." Ye Xingzhou winked at him.

Smooth talking.

Meng Zhi sneered and was too lazy to pay attention to Ye Xingzhou.

Ren Wangzhu tilted his head, "Brother, why didn't you praise me just now?"

"Brother doesn't praise you because he wants to focus on training you, so that you can calm down and practice with a steady mind."

The only two words that stayed in Ren Wangzhu's mind throughout the whole process were "key points".

Brother, why don’t you focus on taking care of others instead of him?

Why didn’t senior brother put his arm around Meng Zhi’s shoulders, but only around him!

Of course it’s because he is the focus of the senior brother!

"Brother, I understand again!"

Ye Xingzhou didn't know what Ren Wangzhu understood, but he always thought in a positive way.

Just give it a start and you don't have to worry about the rest.

Because he can rely on his imagination to motivate himself to move forward.

Ren Wangzhu only needs to be a simple and cute mascot.

The rest will be handled by Ye Xingzhou and Meng Zhi, the two old men.

Ye Xingzhou pinched his face, his eyes full of love.

This little thing looks more and more unique the more you look at it.

"Junior brother, why are you here?"

"I'm afraid you'll die outside." Meng Zhi said unhappily.

"Can you please speak properly?"

Ren Wangzhu glared at Meng Zhi, then turned to explain to Ye Xingzhou.

"Brother, Uncle Xiao was worried about you, so he sent us to follow you."

"Hehe, actually, when Uncle Xiao sent the spiritual message, we had already slipped down the mountain."

Very clever.

But now that I'm here, there's no reason not to board his pirate ship.

Ye Xingzhou remembered something and said to Ren Wangzhu, "Junior brother, I have an important task for you to complete."

Important task!

Leave it to him!

Ren Wangzhu was looking forward to it!

"Brother, you say!"

Ye Xingzhou whispered a few words.

After saying that, Ye Xingzhou patted his shoulder again and gave him some instructions.

"Junior brother, remember, don't let anyone else find out about this."

"good!"

Ren Wangzhu nodded vigorously and left with a heroic and high-spirited look.

After giving the simple task, Ye Xingzhou turned and looked at Meng Zhi.

Now, it’s time to check the secret code between Lao Liu.

Just by looking at each other, Meng Zhi knew that Ye Xingzhou was not holding his fart well.

Meng Zhi cast a spell to set up a soundproof barrier.

Ye Xingzhou briefly explained the situation here.

Finally, he said.

"Junior brother, I need you to act out a play with me."

*

Night falls.

Ye Xingzhou sneaked into the village chief's house under the cover of night.

The village chief was squatting in the corner, grinning foolishly and eating mud.

Ye Xingzhou stood in front of the village chief openly, and his arrival did not attract the attention of the village chief.

Until he opened his mouth, "Village chief, I want to know the second half of the sentence 'There is a treacherous ghost on the ground, with a thousand faces but not afraid of the mirror'."

"He's not afraid of mirrors, yet he can change into a thousand different faces. Is he a human or a ghost, and where is he hiding?"

The village chief buried his head in the dirt and ate it without saying a word.

Ye Xingzhou's next words surprised the village chief.

"Village Chief, you're not crazy, are you? I've set up a barrier, so feel free to say whatever you want."

The village chief lost all his strength, his eyes bloodshot, and he spoke in a trembling voice.

"Don't trust Uncle Chen."

"Uncle Chen died of illness five months ago. I saw it with my own eyes."

"The one occupying his body isn't a human, it's the warlock's ghost!"

With this introduction, the village chief finally told the true cause and effect of the matter.

"Three years ago, Xiaohe Village suffered a drought. Crops didn't grow well, and many people starved to death."

"The sorcerer happened to be passing by the village begging for food. My girl was kind-hearted and gave him half a bowl of coarse rice. To repay the favor, the sorcerer offered to help Xiaohe Village solve its drought."

"The sorcerer said that the drought in Xiaohe Village was caused by offending the river god of the Daqing River, and they wanted to build a river god temple."

"At that time, the villagers were starving to death, and the imperial court hadn't even released any disaster relief funds. How could they possibly have extra money to build a river temple?"

"The sorcerer helped me get a tablet for the river god and placed it in the ancestral hall, offering sacrifices every day."

"Since the memorial tablet was placed, Xiaohe Village has had a heavy rain. Everything should have been getting better."

"I thought the sorcerer was genuinely helping me, but my little girl, Xiaorong, discovered that it was all the sorcerer's doing."

"There's no such thing as a river god. The drought in Xiaohe Village was caused by that sorcerer's evil magic. Under the guise of repaying a favor, he teamed up with the monster at the bottom of the river and used the lifespans of the entire village to support himself!"

The village chief choked up several times, "My girl was murdered just because she wanted to make the truth public."

"I only managed to escape by pretending to be crazy."

"The sorcerer has set up a sinister spell to prevent the villagers from leaving. He has returned to monitor everything that happens in the village through a resurrected corpse."

"At the end of every month, they drink blood and eat flesh with the monster, and then they share the offerings in the Daqing River and eat them."

"I tried to convey information through nursery rhymes, but the monks who came stayed away from me because I was crazy. Furthermore, the sorcerers used words to instigate others, and no one was willing to believe the words of a madman."

As he spoke, the village chief knelt down and kowtowed to Ye Xingzhou, "Please, save the seventy-six villagers of Xiaohe Village!"

Ye Xingzhou helped the man up, indignant, "Village Chief, don't worry, my fellow apprentices and I will definitely catch that sorcerer and the monster in one fell swoop!"

"Actually, I suspected Uncle Chen last night."

"How can a man in his seventies walk more steadily than a young man? There must be something fishy going on!"

"So, before I came to find you, I had already asked my junior brother to hold Uncle Chen back."

"That loach spirit is so cunning! He actually dared to pretend to be the river god. Isn't he afraid of being punished by heaven?" Ye Xingzhou said gritting his teeth.

"It's not a loach spirit, it's an eel."
