"No, you think too highly of me. In fact, I haven't had time to deal with this matter." Master Lintian shook his head slightly, with a solemn expression, "Not hearing the news does not mean that there is no news, and the lack of news does not mean that the situation has not been resolved yet.
There has been a change. The living corpse issue is probably not over yet, but has just ceased operations temporarily. I don’t know when and where it will reappear, catching us by surprise."
They looked at each other and were a little at a loss. The puppet's affairs were beginning to take shape, and the evil influence was quite troublesome. If coupled with the living corpses who had no clue and had a wide influence, the world would be really chaotic and worrying.
Feeling fear in his heart, probably because he saw how ugly their faces were, Master Lin Tian quickly spoke to comfort them:
"I have been investigating the matter of the living corpse and have some clues. Although there is still a lack of conclusive evidence, I can infer that this matter may be related to the Death Shadow Pavilion."
"The Death Shadow Pavilion..."
Jiao Mo frowned slightly, as if he was thinking, while Xie Zhe and Han Zhang immediately recalled their past experiences and doubts, and made sounds of enlightenment, as if they had expected it. Master Lintian looked at them and thought about it.
These three people all knew what Death Shadow Pavilion was, so they skipped the introduction and continued.
"In an untouched place in Qinglize, there is a corpse-changing pool. Just by hearing this name, you can imagine that it is related to living corpses. It has a strong influence on the flow of spiritual power. I don't think so.
I don’t know exactly how it works, but I do understand how terrifying it is. Unfortunately, although I suspect that the Death Shadow
The role of the pavilion and the corpse pool in this matter was guarded by them, and they could not approach it, let alone further investigate. Furthermore, the corpse pool existed for far longer than the days when living corpses appeared in the world.
Shadow Pavilion also has more good reasons to explain how they use this place."
"Therefore, doubts can only be doubts." Lintian Master sighed and reminded them, "Even in my own heart, I cannot draw a definite conclusion, let alone prove it to others. If you are willing, you can remember
But don’t take this as a conclusion. If we want to delve deeper into this matter, we all need to know more before we can make a true judgment."
The three of them nodded thoughtfully. Master Lintian adjusted his sitting position and asked another question:
"I have read the letter you sent, but the length is limited. I only know that your friend traveling with you was troubled by the injuries left by the living corpse, and you are worried about her sisters. Before I came here, I also heard,
You were in danger in Dailuan City and encountered the evil messenger of lies. The girl was also taken away and her whereabouts are unknown. If there are any important details in this, please tell me in detail."
Xie Zhe Hanzhang sat up straighter and began to tell Master Lintian about the changes that had occurred during this period. They first talked about why Ling Quan left home in the first place, and how she was worried about her cousin being trapped in her own strange state.
As for the cousin, they heard from Lord Shuangyue that she had visited Master Lintian. She first sought Master Lintian's help because Linghua was concerned about her sisters and because they wanted to help her.
Ling Hu solved her own problem. They described to Master Lintian how she was injured by a living corpse, and then met an expert who helped her heal the injured arm, but the arm still showed a worrying appearance.
The appearance of it. And what scares Ling Huan is far more than just its appearance. It gives her different abilities, but at the same time...
Xie Zhe's voice became hoarse as he continued talking. He forced himself to calm down and told Master Lintian what changes happened to Ling Huan after that. She felt that her arms were out of control, and she lost important friends because of it.
.Therefore, she firmly wanted to solve the problems that may come with it, and they all supported her, and with the help of Lord Shuangyue, she chose to ask Master Lintian for help.
only……
Xie Zhe took a few deep breaths, feeling like there was a lump in his throat. Han Shan continued what he said, and the scenes in Dailuan City appeared before their eyes: puppets, Wuyong Lan, Ling Yu who fought with them, who could learn from the will of all ghosts
The hands that draw on the power of monsters...and the Nightmare Dog, as well as the Lingyu who was helplessly abducted and disappeared when it soared into the sky.
The amount of information in this was huge. After listening to their stories, Master Lintian pondered for a while. He organized his thoughts and first talked about what he could confirm:
"I should have seen her cousin, the unfortunate girl who lost her voice..."
"I have a portrait of Miss Ye Linghuan here." Han Zhang suddenly remembered this and quickly took out the portrait to show Master Lintian, "They say the two sisters look very similar. If the one you have seen looks like her
If they are similar and all the information matches, then it is definitely true."
Master Lintian took the paper and lightly traced the facial features of Ren Yintang in the painting with his fingers.
"It looks very similar indeed." He took the portrait and turned to ask them, "Who painted it?"
"Ah, it's me." Han Chang raised his hand to signal.
Lintian Master nodded slowly, and then sighed softly: "Alas...these two sisters have had a difficult life, and now is the time when they are wandering. In the future, there will be a day when the clouds will clear, but the fate is not yet known.
arrived, so we are still separated and cannot see each other for the time being."
"...Is this so?"
"As for her arms, I'm sorry that it's difficult for me to judge for the moment." Master Lintian handed the portrait back to Han Shang and explained to the two of them, "There are many reasons for this situation. Only by seeing the person, seeing, hearing and asking, can we find out.
She came up with a special answer that was closely related to herself. For her cousin, I performed a ritual in person to find out the source of her abnormalities."
Han Chang took the drawing paper and sighed sadly: "It doesn't matter. Even if you tell us the results of the diagnosis, we still can't treat her. All of this needs to be found before we can make any plans."
"The most important thing at the moment is to confirm her safety." Xie Zhe added, looking at Master Lintian hopefully, "Do you have any ideas? For example, divination..."
"Yes, I can divine good or bad luck, and even determine her location." Lintian Master nodded, "Do you keep any of her personal belongings? Anything will do, as long as it has been frequently used or carried by her."
Xie Zhe's lips twitched and his shoulders slumped slightly.
"No. She...had a xun and had close contact with Wan Guizhi, but all these things were taken away with her. Other luggage was also in her own luggage. I don't know where those things are.
What will happen in the hands of a group of evil people? As for how to distinguish between evil and good, I just have a first glimpse of the method and have not mastered it. But if there is anything left around me, I will definitely make some attempts."
Master Lintian pondered for a moment and reassured them that it didn't matter.
"I can give you a few pointers on fortune telling. However, there are some unique skills in it that are not particularly easy to learn. Let's deal with the current matter first, and I will explain it to you in detail later if I have time." Lin Tian
The teacher patted him on the shoulder encouragingly, "It doesn't matter if she doesn't have anything. If I can know the location of her home and supplement it with her birth date, I can also do divination."
Somewhat unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, several people in front of him fell into silence. Master Lintian slowly showed a look of understanding and heard Xie Zhe whisper:
"Sorry, we don't know these things either."
Everyone could read sadness and regret from the tense lines on his face. Xie Zhe was really asking himself why, after so many days, he never thought of asking Ling Huan where she lived and what her birthday was.
When? These should all be natural among friends.
He would pay attention to the information he learned. If he had asked with intention - as long as he had asked with intention, how could he be like this today? The opportunity to know her whereabouts could only be watched by him, and it slipped through his fingers. And all of this
, all because he never asked more questions.
Because they don't care enough about her, don't take her to heart enough...
"Lao Xie, don't blame yourself too much." Han Sheng said softly, patting his trembling back and coaxing a child, "Think about it, at first we met by chance, we didn't even think of it.
To talk about such a personal matter, it is impossible to pry into her casually.
Come on, we have experienced too much along the way. In just a few months, we have been busy running around and have no time to talk about more trivial matters. Not only did you neglect it, but so did I. Neither of us mentioned it to her.
Everyone forgets to say this. It’s not your fault.”
Xie Zhe nodded in response to Han Zhang's comfort, exhaled heavily, and tilted his head to avoid everyone's sight. While they were talking, Jiao Mo beside him softly told Master Lintian the bits and pieces she had heard from the two of them.
Information about how these three people got to know each other. Master Lintian's expression moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he simply sighed:
"The friendship between you is really touching. It doesn't seem like we have only been friends for a few months."
"Being with each other day and night, depending on each other for life and death, even if it is only for more than a month or even a few days, it is enough for people to build an extraordinary friendship." Jiao Mo said with emotion.
Xie Zhe finally turned around and waved his hand towards Han Shang, indicating that he was fine. He rubbed his face vigorously a few times, raised his head and looked at his companions one by one, and finally looked directly at Master Lintian. The latter looked like a
The gentle elder looked at him quietly, pretending to be listening.
"In fact, I do blame myself. It's just that I'm not just blaming myself because I didn't protect my good friend or didn't know her situation." Xie Zhe finally spoke and solemnly confessed, both to his companions and to himself.
The source of inner uneasiness. "What's more, I feel that I am too fragile. I am too easily affected by external things, and I hesitate to judge and deal with people and things, or I am burdened with emotions that are unhelpful and unhelpful."
"Although, I know, it's understandable that I worry about such an important friend." Seeing Han Shan move his lips, as if to comfort him, he added, "But I'm still worried about this...
…I’m worried that something like this will happen again in the future, or even if it happens often
Things happened, and every time it was because of my weakness, because I couldn't make timely and effective judgments, didn't have the ability to deal with risks, and couldn't control my emotions to the maximum extent... On that day, it will be difficult for me to
Forgive yourself and face more disasters."
He glanced at Han Shang. His friend was silent and nodded to his gaze, expressing his understanding. Because of his understanding, he didn't know how else to comfort him. Jiao Mo seemed to want to say something, but in the end he could only
Sigh. None of them could ask Xie Zhe to give up these humanistic worries and remain unmoved under such circumstances. Or rather, it was precisely because Xie Zhe was not such a person that they recognized each other and became
