Chapter 1160 The Returnee's Notes 234
"I won't go. I've been busy for almost half a year, I need to rest for a while." Then Huang Lili looked at Xie Ning and asked her about the Soul Umbrella, as she wanted to have one custom-made.
This thing is amazing at dealing with ghosts.
Speaking of the Soul Umbrella, Xie Ning realized that she hadn't paid attention to things in Qing Shi Town for a long time, since studying had taken up too much of her time.
However, Yu Shu, the innkeeper, sent her a message six months ago.
They said the situation in the town has improved a lot, and maybe she can leave in a couple of years.
She will come to find Xie Ning then.
"I can ask around for you." Qing Shi Town still deals in Soul Umbrellas, but I don't know what the current requirements are.
Huang Lili was so happy that she bought two more roast chickens that evening. She really loved them, but unfortunately neither Ouyang Lin nor Xie Ning liked them much.
In the end, she could only bitterly eat one and a half roast chickens.
Xie Ning brewed another cup of strong tea. She'd been staying up late a lot lately, so she wanted to avoid greasy food.
Before Xie Ning could ask about the disciples she had exchanged contact information with in Qing Shi Town, Yu Shu contacted her, saying that the fog on Jingming Lake had thinned out considerably.
Many, many people came to the vicinity of Qingshi Town. At first, they were separated by a lake, and only one or two people entered Qingshi Town by small boat.
Later, when the fog on the lake thinned out a bit, they first escorted the elderly people out of the town. Originally, Yang Liu and his disciples were supposed to lead the way, but some of the older people in the town volunteered to go themselves.
They didn't have many years left to live; it was just a matter of dying sooner or later. Being able to see the outside world was already a blessing.
Even if we can't go out, it's still nice to see our ancestors from a thousand years ago.
Perhaps they weren't our ancestors, but if they believed they were, then they were.
Four of the last elderly people to escape have perished. They are still investigating whether they can exit from another direction...
They still wanted to try, but the officials wouldn't allow it. "They said every life is precious and we can't risk the lives of ordinary people."
She reads all kinds of books, and they always say that officials don't care about the lives of ordinary people, but this government is different.
Or perhaps it's just this particular group that isn't.
Yu Shu nestled in the recliner, her gaze falling on a few people not far away who were engrossed in eating noodles. They were wearing military green uniforms, uniforms she had never seen before.
"...No matter what, I like them as they are now."
It is this very moment.
Things may change in the future, but it is undeniable that everyone in Qing Shi Town is grateful. In the past, they all regarded themselves as the abandoned and forgotten party.
Now, when I reach out, someone helps me up.
Xie Ning could sense the psychological changes in Yu Shu and the residents of Qing Shi Town from between the lines of her writing.
Yu Shu was very excited. She had saved a lot of money and was thinking of riding around and exploring as soon as she got out. She had enough money for food and lodging, so she wasn't worried!
Upon seeing Yu Shu's message, Xie Ning's expression relaxed considerably; it was good that there was progress.
Because the people in Qing Shi Town are busy dealing with the surrounding formations and spirits, they are temporarily not accepting business from the Soul Umbrella business.
When Huang Lili heard that the Soul Umbrella she had been longing for couldn't be made, she felt that even the meat pie in her hand didn't taste good anymore; she also wanted a powerful weapon.
When she told her father this, he just glanced at her and said, "Why are you envious of others' families? Our Huang family isn't bad either. You just haven't trained enough. If you were with your grandmaster..."
Before Huang's father could finish speaking, Huang Lili interrupted him, "Dad, I was taught by you, so I'm at your level. How dare you compare me to my grandmaster?"
Hearing this, Mr. Huang's face turned red with anger. "You brat!"
He was about to grab his weapon and hit Huang Lili when there was a knock on the door. "Dad, it's your letter."
It was Huang's father's eldest daughter who came. She was still very curious. In this day and age, why would anyone still write a letter?
We all know how convenient mobile phone communication is, so does the person writing this letter not even have a mobile phone?
"What is this?" Huang's father threw down the bamboo stick in his hand and went to the balcony to read the letter by the brighter light.
On the other side, Huang Lili bowed to her eldest sister to express her gratitude. Her eldest sister was the most considerate; she rushed over to help when she heard her father say he would hit her.
Looking at her younger sister's grateful expression, the eldest sister of the Huang family was completely puzzled. "Lili, don't smile like that. You look a bit like a simpleton."
Er Lengzi is a character from a TV series that Huang's eldest sister recently watched; he's silly and clueless, which is quite funny.
Huang Lili remained silent.
"Lili!" Huang's father's shout almost scared Huang Lili to death.
"Dad, you need to change your loud voice habit!"
"Pack your things and head to the old courtyard."
"What are you doing?"
"Make something for when I go on a long trip."
At the same time, a message was also sent in the group chat that Ouyang Lin and Xie Ning were in.
