Ye Lanyin was just saying it casually.
Right after the man had his blood drawn.
In an instant.
The woman's body was quickly dehydrated, and she aged into a shriveled corpse in an instant.
The old man was so frightened that he quickly backed away.
Is that what we'll find out later?
Is this what they mean by "you can't kill him while he's alive, but you scare him to death after he's dead"?
"Madam, who are you? Even ghosts are afraid of you?"
The old man, frightened, walked around the mummified corpse on the ground and followed Ye Lanyin's steps.
After the men behind her regained their composure, they finally had a chance to speak and gathered around Ye Lanyin.
"Yes, madam, you did nothing, and she died. She's more powerful than a Bodhisattva."
"She wasn't even human to begin with," Ye Lanyin said with a light laugh.
After these words were spoken, the group fell silent for a moment.
Then, with a cry of "Ah!", he knelt down on the ground.
"So, I've been living with ghosts every day?" the old man suddenly shouted.
“That’s not all. I bet more than half of your village are ghosts!” Hua Mei glared at him.
She still remembered how they had threatened the lady.
"how so?"
[Hehe, let's invite the wolf into the house.]
[The female ghost has been dead for thirteen years; it would be strange if she didn't kill someone.]
[We didn't kill that scoundrel because he's tough!]
The female ghost was originally a nightmare caused by Zou Shuang'er; this man deliberately had someone lure her and then beat her to death.
Ye Lanyin: ...
Suddenly, she looked at Wanwan's neck and saw a familiar necklace.
Isn't that... the one around the neck of the shaman?
Ye Lanyin's mouth dropped open.
[Huh? Mom finally knows I'm hungry.]
Lin Wanwan closed her eyes and opened her little mouth, waiting for her mother to hand her the milk pot.
Seeing the young lady's greedy look, Hua Mei smiled and took out a milk jug from the bundle behind her back, and put it into her mouth.
"Miss, please drink slowly."
"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle."
The little guy ignored Hua Mei and drank heartily.
When the men saw Lin Wanwan's appearance, they felt a sense of awe towards her for some reason.
They caught a glimpse of her out of the corner of their eye just now.
She sat in the shaman's lap, and the shaman appeared to her.
"Young lady, would you like to come and take a stroll around our village?" the old man couldn't help but ask.
Lin Wanwan was nursing, her big, dark eyes wide open, nodding like a chick pecking at rice.
Ye Lanyin also wanted to ask about something, so she agreed.
When the group arrived at the entrance to Yunxi Village, they were still surrounded by fog, and Ye Lanyin began to have second thoughts.
If a daughter can be saved once, can she be saved a second time?
Besides, she's so young, she can't bear to see her do anything that would hurt herself.
"Madam, this way please."
The old man led Ye Lanyin toward Yunxi Village.
Ye Lanyin had no choice but to hold the woman in her arms tighter and follow them.
Soon, the group arrived at a house in the village that looked slightly better.
"Madam, this is our village chief's house."
“You’re new here and you’ve saved us all, so I know you must have something you want to ask.”
“Over the years, countless people have come to Yunxi Village, but none of them have been able to enter smoothly.”
From a distance, Ye Lanyin saw a small house with very simple decorations.
A couplet hangs at the entrance.
The first line reads: "To be an upright official is to commit fewer wrongful convictions."
The second line reads: "Excessive demands for even a fraction of a cent bring disaster to the nation."
The horizontal scroll reads: "Upright and Honest".
“Yunxi Village used to have a government office, but it started to decline after a child died three years ago.”
"This is the village chief's house, which is now also his office."
Ye Lanyin gave an "Oh" and continued walking.
A middle-aged man, around forty years old, was standing at the door.
The man, dressed in tattered clothes, stood ramrod straight, motionless at the doorway.
Through those eyes, there was a hint of authority in their gaze.
"This is the village chief," the obese man pointed.
The village chief glanced sideways, coldly sweeping his gaze over Ye Lanyin before his deep eyes lingered on the daughter in Ye Lanyin's arms.
“Village chief, at noon, it was this lady who saved us at the crossroads of Yunxi Village.”
The village chief's eyes flickered, and he shifted his body slightly.
Oh dear, why is the village chief so serious?
"That's true, with so many wrongful convictions in the village, it would be strange if he didn't take it seriously."
The child who urinated in the temple of the goddess is innocent.
"Village Chief," Ye Lanyin called out to him.
"Hmm," the village chief replied indifferently.
"I have encountered some strange things since I came here today. I wonder if this has been the case in the village all these years?"
"Hmm," the village chief said coldly.
The fat-faced man then spoke a few words to the village chief, who widened his eyes and then looked at the woman in front of him again.
Who are you?
"I am the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei."
"The Marquis of Zhenbei?" He thought for a moment, then shook his head.
“The village chief doesn’t know me, but the woman just now knew me, though she’s dead.”
"What did you say? My wife knows you?" The fat man was somewhat surprised.
Ye Lanyin nodded, "She was a midwife who delivered my baby. I came here today to ask her about some things from back then."
"What a pity..."
“Tell me what you want to ask, and maybe I’ll know.” The fat man stepped forward.
Just then.
Suddenly a gust of wind passed by them, startling Ye Lanyin.
【Huh? Handsome guy?】
Oh dear, he harbors deep resentment.
