Chapter 399 Are you thinking of taking that thing?
"What's going on here? Why did these guests come back too?" Old Master Lin asked, pulling his eldest son into the nearby courtyard.
"Father, we didn't want this either, but you saw it, that little girl looks so much like my aunt!"
Grandpa Lin pursed his lips, thinking of his younger sister and then of Xiao Su Bao, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
I don't even know if my little sister is alive or dead now!
and……
"Are you thinking of taking that thing?" Old Master Lin looked at his eldest son, a strange light in his eyes!
Lin the eldest did not deny it; his whole family were capable people.
If he hadn't been framed, his son would probably be able to take the imperial examinations by now!
But what about now!
The Lin family members could only huddle in these mountains, surviving by hunting!
Life is getting harder and harder these days, and they don't want to just drift through life aimlessly!
"Father, we have no chance now. If... if something happens to these children, our Lin family line will end. What good will it do to keep those things?"
Lin Laoda looked at his father with a strange light in his eyes.
"You're a good child in every way, except you're too competitive!" Old Master Lin frowned slightly.
Thinking of Xiao Su Bao's appearance, he couldn't help but ask, "Is that little girl a descendant of your aunt?"
"I don't know, but I think it should be!" Boss Lin's eyes held a hint of mystery.
That little girl looks so much like her aunt when she was little, and the little girl's temperament is also somewhat similar to her aunt's.
"Well, no matter what, she has a connection with our Lin family!"
After Old Master Lin finished speaking, Lin Laosan's shouts came from outside.
"Father, elder brother, where are you?" Lin Laosan was about to tell his daughter about her!
Because that shameless Tang Sanbao went to find his daughter again!
How could such a beautiful girl like his daughter be fooled by a brat!
The two did not continue speaking. As soon as they came out, they saw their third son.
Once the three of them had gone into the main hall, Ling Buqi emerged from a corner.
However, he quickly disappeared from the spot.
This Lin Family Village is a bit strange!
Little Su Bao and the others had no idea about any of this. At that moment, Little Su Bao was sitting in the house when Lin Lao Wu and his wife brought them a lot of food.
Little Su Bao looked at them, her brows furrowing slightly.
Why do these people give me a somewhat uncomfortable feeling?
Xiao Subao paused for a moment, then looked at the fifth brother's wife standing to the side.
This woman is quite pretty, but...
Little Su Bao looked at her stomach, where a cloud of black energy was gathering.
"The people here are really..." The young Taoist priest wanted to say something, but he suddenly stopped and remained silent.
Forget it, I'd better say less, otherwise I might not even know how I died.
"It's getting late. You've traveled a long way, so you should get some rest!"
Grandpa Lin glanced at everyone, his gaze lingering on Xiao Su Bao for a few more moments, before continuing, "I've already had dinner prepared. Please make do with what you have. Things are different in the mountains than outside, so I hope you won't find it too unpleasant!"
After he finished speaking, several men came in carrying a large pot of meat.
Little Su Bao frowned even more as she looked at the food.
"Daddy, Su Bao doesn't want to eat!" She glanced at the meat, but had absolutely no appetite. Most importantly, the meat smelled unpleasant.
It smells ridiculously good.
Tang Bugui glanced at his daughter, then said loudly, "We're not hungry, you guys eat first!"
After saying that, Tang Bugui took Xiao Subao and stood at the door.
When the other villagers saw the state of Xiao Su Bao and her father, they were moved and exclaimed, "We're not hungry either!"
Yang Nuannuan looked at the old man not far away and frowned. Yinniang, on the other hand, had a somewhat gloomy expression.
Apart from Tang Sanbao, none of the eight people ate.
Tang Sanbao approached Lin Qiqi, a smile in his eyes.
"Miss Qiqi, the way your family entertains guests is quite interesting. And it's really not easy to have so much meat here at this time of year. I wonder what kind of meat this is!"
"This is mutton!" Lin Xiaojiu's eyes lit up immediately. They ate mutton quite often, and everyone was very familiar with the taste.
"Mutton?" Tang Sanbao was taken aback. His father was a hunter, but...
Never mind, he looked at the mutton and swallowed hard.
"They're not hungry, but I am. Can I have something to eat?"
The little guy's eyes sparkled, and he looked at everyone else speechlessly.
However, these people did not refuse, and there was a hint of a smile in their eyes.
"Eat up, all the meat here is for you!" Lin Qiqi said, bringing over a bowl as well.
The children were eating happily, while Xiao Su Bao stood at the door watching with wide eyes.
The food clearly had some problems, but it ate perfectly fine in Tang Sanbao's stomach.
Moreover, Xiao Su Bao discovered that the more Tang San Bao ate, the better his luck became!
"What are you looking at? Do you want to eat?" Tang Bugui looked down at his daughter. Let alone his daughter, he was actually a little hungry himself!
only……
"No..." Little Su Bao grabbed Tang Bugui's sleeve, finally turning her gaze away.
She looked up at her father, opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Doctor Song quietly approached and whispered to Xiao Su Bao, "Junior Sister, do you know anything special about this mountain stronghold?"
Not only Xiao Su Bao, but even Bai Yin Jun and the others showed a hint of curiosity.
"Dr. Song, stop beating around the bush and just tell me!" Bai Yinjun had been secretly reading storybooks quite a bit, and suddenly a lot of plots popped into his head.
Startled, he immediately rushed behind Doctor Song.
Xiao Su Bao shook her head. She couldn't see anything, but she just felt uncomfortable here.
The young Taoist priest spoke first: "You don't understand, this is a yin place. If a dead person is buried here, it can bring blessings to their descendants, but... if a living person is buried here..."
He didn't continue speaking, but a sinister expression appeared in his eyes.
"What will happen?" Bai Yinjun, standing to the side, trembled with fear.
"Hehe, it will feel very cool!" the little Taoist said with a laugh.
Bai Yinjun...
"Song Yun... I'm going to beat you to death!" Bai Yinjun glared at Song Yun and chased after him to beat him up.
Song Yun ran incredibly fast, leaving Doctor Song helpless as he watched them.
"Master Song is right, this is indeed a yin place..." Doctor Song looked over there, but those people had already disappeared.
He then lowered his voice and said, "This is a yin place. If living people live here permanently, it will affect their lifespan, and..."
Doctor Song paused slightly, and spoke even softer to Tang Bugui and Xiao Subao.
"This place might breed a kind of living dead!"
Little Su Bao didn't understand, but Tang Bugui's expression changed slightly because he had seen living dead before.
Among the enemies he fought back then were those living dead.
These people's bodies are filled with something like a spider web; they are all controlled by others.
These things don't breathe, they're not afraid of death, and their skin and skeletons are entangled in spider webs.
Like a marionette!
This method is a unique technique used by people in southern Xinjiang.
"Are there living dead here?" Tang Bugui's face was extremely gloomy as he looked around.
It's June or July, but the place feels gloomy and eerie; this feeling is definitely not right.
"What do we do now?" Bai Yinjun, who had returned at some point, was standing to the side, his teeth chattering as he looked at them pitifully.
Song Yun glanced at him, pursed her lips, and said, "What else can we do?"
"You..." Bai Yinjun was about to start arguing with Song Yun again when Granny Yin walked over.
She carried a bowl of water and walked towards Xiao Su Bao.
Little Su Bao instinctively hugged Tang Bugui tightly, her little eyes not daring to look at the old woman in front of her.
"Little girl, you must be tired. If you don't want to eat, have some water!" Granny Yin had a kind smile on her face, but for some reason, Bai Yinjun just felt uncomfortable.
Just then, Tang Sanbao came out after finishing his meal.
Seeing the water in Granny Yin's hand, he felt even thirstier.
"Grandma is so kind. Auntie, I'm thirsty. Let me drink first, and I'll give you my water later!" Tang Sanbao took the water and swallowed it down in one gulp.
Tang Qi's eyelids twitched wildly, and for a moment he didn't know what to do!
This son isn't very bright to begin with. If he comes here to eat and drink, won't he become even dumber?
What if I become even dumber?
Just as Tang Qi was worrying about his son, Granny Yin frowned almost imperceptibly.
She was so fast that Tang Bugui and Xiao Subao would have missed it if they hadn't been watching closely.
"Children should drink more water!" Granny Yin said with a smile, then walked away, leaning on her cane.
Tang Sanbao called out to Granny Yin, "Granny, is there any more? This water is so delicious, I want some more!"
Granny Yin paused, her lips twitching almost imperceptibly. She turned around, a strange glint in her eyes.
Then, turning to Tang Sanbao, he said, "Yes!"
"I'll go with you!" Tang Sanbao said, and was about to follow.
Upon hearing this, Tang Qi glared at his son. He was not about to let his son leave alone with his wife, so he said, "Alright, don't make things difficult for the old lady. She's already drunk so much, isn't she going to have enough?"
Tang Sanbao scratched his head and chuckled, "I really can't get enough of this water. It's so sweet, like it has honey in it. Come to think of it, I've only ever had honey water once in my life, and that was when a queen bee came to our house, and I only got one sip..."
As he spoke, he gave his own father a resentful look.
Their father was a hunter; every family there eats meat and drinks honey water.
Their family is different from others; they can't even afford honey water, let alone make ends meet.
Tang Qi paused, feeling inexplicably troubled.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xiao Su Bao's voice: "Nephew Sanbao, are you feeling unwell?"
Little Su Bao glanced at her nephew, San Bao, whose belly was shiny and looked like it was full of little stars...
"It doesn't hurt at all... I have to say, it feels pretty good. I feel like I could kill a bull with one punch right now!" Tang Sanbao chuckled, his eyes sparkling.
Granny Yin suddenly turned her head and stared intently at Tang Sanbao.
She looked at Tang Sanbao, her eyes half-closed!
However, I felt nothing at all!
"Oh no, I think my stomach is a little upset..." Tang Sanbao suddenly clutched his stomach, his face looking rather pale.
Little Su Bao immediately tensed up.
Tang Qi disregarded everything else and immediately looked at Granny Yin warily, pulling his son back.
Doctor Song reached out to grab Tang Sanbao's wrist.
However, Tang Sanbao didn't give him a chance and ran away!
"Nephew Sanbao, don't..." Before Xiao Subao could finish saying the word "go out," Tang Sanbao had already run off.
The little girl's expression instantly turned sour.
She felt that Brother Zhao Ziyun must not have lied to her, and the little dumpling became extremely anxious.
Tang Bugui also knew about the three things Zhao Ziyun mentioned. He frowned, a hint of worry in his eyes.
He suddenly coughed twice.
Hearing the sound, Ling Buqi, who was hiding on the roof, immediately rushed out.
Granny Yin seemed to sense something; she raised her eyebrows and glanced at the roof.
"Guests must enter through the main entrance!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Before anyone could react, she had already left.
Little Su Bao was worried about Tang Sanbao, but she hadn't seen her nephew Sanbao in danger, and the little girl didn't know what to do!
“Daddy…” Little Su Bao looked up at Tang Bugui.
Tang Qi had already chased after them, and the young Taoist priest simply followed him, not worried about encountering any danger.
A moment later, Tang Sanbao ran back with an ugly expression on his face.
Tang Qi behind him fainted, while the young Taoist priest was a little better, but his face was also a bit pale.
I didn't see Ling Buqi, I wonder how he is.
Lin Qiqi finished eating and came out. They looked fine, and their spirits were even better than when they were in Tangjia Village.
Doctor Song noticed it too; his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.
Before Doctor Song could finish speaking, the young Taoist priest interrupted, "This guy's poop stinks!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Qi, who was standing to the side, raised his head with difficulty: "You brat... what did you eat? Why do you smell so bad..."
Little Su Bao seemed to vaguely smell a faint scent, and the little dumpling quickly covered her nose.
Lin Qiqi was taken aback. The smell wasn't unpleasant at all; in fact, she thought it smelled quite nice...
She felt so comfortable when she smelled it...
Lin Qiqi couldn't help but move a few steps closer to Tang Sanbao.
“It doesn’t smell bad!” she said, her eyes still bright.
Xiao Su Bao looked at the two of them and noticed that as they got closer, their auras seemed to blend together more and more.
And she didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that her nephew Sanbao’s luck was getting better and better.
Although Lin Qiqi's face was initially a bit dark, a faint glow gradually appeared around her.
"Ugh..." The little Taoist priest was completely taken aback. He initially thought he was imagining things, since Lin Qiqi's expression looked so blissful.
He tried smelling it again...
In that instant, he was completely overwhelmed!
