When Lin Ling arrived, he saw panic and fear written on everyone's faces, and they all seemed to want to go home.
Although these miners are all warriors, their strength is not high. They come from towns and villages all over the Tianxuan Kingdom. They have always been in awe of the legends of some ghosts and gods. Now that rumors about the mine are spreading everywhere, they are naturally worried.
"Master Lin, what do you think we should do? They are not willing to mine anymore!" Xiao Wenda was running around anxiously. Without the miners to mine, how could they deliver the minerals on time?
Lin Ling's face was extremely calm from beginning to end, and he walked out of the crowd.
"Master Lin is here!"
"This mine is haunted, what will happen if he comes!"
"It's very possible that he is a demon star who came to the mine and brought out evil things!"
Whispers echoed around like waves, making people wonder who was speaking.
Lin Ling glanced at it lightly, knowing that as soon as the rumors spread, the miners became panicked. If the rumors were not clarified, the mine would not be able to continue digging, and the people who spread the rumors obviously came here with intentions.
"Everyone, please be patient. If your body is upright, your mind will be upright. Why should you be afraid of ghosts and gods?"
Lin Ling said something loudly, causing the surrounding area to gradually quiet down. Although rumors were spreading, Lin Ling was the backbone after all, and many miners were very considerate.
"Master Lin, although we are not afraid of ghosts and gods, we are still dead!" a one-armed miner said.
Lin Ling's eyes flashed, and he glanced at the one-armed miner imperceptibly, and then continued: "Who is dead? Bring him up and see!"
"It's Li Er!"
The one-armed miner said with fear on his face. Soon, several clan members brought the deceased up. The deceased was a man in his thirties. His eyes were protruding, his face was ashen, and his seven holes were bleeding. It seemed that he had encountered something during his lifetime.
It was like a terrifying thing, he was scared to death.
The horrific death made the miners around him even more panicked.
"How scary!"
The one-armed miner looked pale and said.
Lin Ling squatted down and looked at the deceased carefully. His soul power flowed out like water, and he found that the deceased had a mysterious aura, like ghost energy or yin energy. Is it really haunted?
However, Lin Ling had not seen ghosts before. When he was buried in the bone ground, he was chased by ghosts for a month, so he was not very afraid.
But the problem is, he can't admit that there are ghosts, even if there are real ghosts, otherwise how can he dig this mine?
"It's just poison!"
Standing up, Lin Ling spoke softly.
"Ah? Poisoned?"
The one-armed miner opened his mouth, obviously not expecting Lin Ling to say that, and the other miners were also surprised.
"Master Lin, are you trying to comfort us? Li Er died miserably. Before he died, he shouted that he saw a ghost. We all heard it, but you said you were poisoned?" the one-armed miner said in disbelief.
Lin Ling took a deep look at him. This man's words seemed ordinary, but they smelled like spreading rumors. Unless he really wanted to leave the mine, otherwise, he was deliberately causing trouble and preventing the mine from delivering the ore on time!
Obviously, there is something wrong with this guy!
It seems it's time to extract those spies!
"When I say poisoned, I mean poisoned. How can you, a mere miner, know more than me? But I also know that you are still afraid. Come on, take me to that mine!" Lin Ling said calmly.
Even if there are intentional people spreading rumors, Lin Ling still has to clarify the rumors and stabilize the hearts of the miners, and the way is to go to the mine where the accident happened!
"Master Lin is going to exorcise ghosts, let's go and have a look!" the one-armed miner shouted, which seemed to calm the miners' minds, but in fact, his words still said that there are indeed ghosts in the mine!
Lin Ling didn't say much, and went to the mine where the accident happened. A moment later, a mine nearly three meters high appeared. This hole was extremely evil, with gusts of wind and blood flowing from the walls. It seemed that there was a terrifying thing buried inside.
Demonic.
The miners did not dare to go in at the entrance of the cave. They all raised their necks to take a look. Among them, a tall miner showed an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth and whispered to himself: "This Young Master Lin is nothing more than that. He is obviously a ghost."
He was acting weird, but he said he was poisoned. Humph, since he dared to come, if he died in the cave, the miners would have no intention of mining!"
There are indeed ghosts in the cave!
Lin Ling walked in alone, and his soul power was swept away. In the corner of the cave, he saw a headless ghost shadow, which was floating and seemed to be making a cold laugh.
There is no doubt that Li Er died in the hands of that ghost.
However, there cannot be ghosts in the mine. Even if there are, they are monsters hidden in the mountains. And now that there is a ghost, there is only one explanation. This ghost was deliberately placed there.
As for the means of controlling ghosts.
A name suddenly appeared in Lin Ling's mind, the Yingu clan among the eight ancient clans!
The Yin Ancient Clan, an ethnic group with a long history, is hidden in Yunhai City. No one knows where this ancient tribe is located. It is extremely mysterious, but no one dares to underestimate this ancient tribe, because this ancient tribe is based on Yin Qi.
Those who focus on cultivation—the ghost-controlling clan!
"It seems that in the West Demon Mountain, apart from the Zhang family of the ancient clan, the Yingu clan is also involved!"
Lin Ling took a deep breath, and at this moment, a voice came from outside the cave: "Master Lin, have you seen any ghosts?"
Lin Ling didn't know who was speaking, but he was sure that it must be a spy hidden among the miners. What he said was still spreading rumors about ghosts and gods, making the miners panic!
"Where is the ghost? It's just a poisonous gas emitted by rocks. This poisonous gas is also called carbon dioxide. It is not afraid of toxicity, but it can cause difficulty in breathing, dizziness and heart palpitations, and eventually death from lack of oxygen!"
Lin Ling sneered and shouted outside the cave.
Rumors, are you the only one who can spread rumors? I, Lin Ling, can do the same!
There is indeed a ghost in the cave, but Lin Ling wants to calm everyone's minds, deliberately saying that there is no ghost, and randomly looking for an excuse to calm everyone's emotions!
This excuse is of course false. None of the miners have heard of carbon dioxide, but it would be great if it could stabilize their emotions!
"Carbon dioxide, death from lack of oxygen?"
The miners looked at me and I looked at you. They were all confused. They had never heard of this kind of poison. They didn't even know what hypoxia was.
"Xiao Wenda, go get some salt water and wash away the blood on the rock wall!"
Lin Ling said something to the outside of the cave. He knew very well that as long as the ghosts in the cave were eliminated, the miners would enter the cave again and be safe, so naturally they believed what he said!
Then, Lin Ling walked towards the headless ghost in the corner of the cave wall. At the same time, blue flames boiled all over his body.
Fire, the most powerful Yang, has the innate ability to restrain Yin and evil!
Moreover, what Lin Ling controls is not extraordinary fire, but the fire of heaven and earth - Jiuyou Tianyan!
"come over!"
He stretched out his right hand, and a chain of flames shot out. From the corner of the cave wall, the headless ghost made a panicked sound, and black smoke began to emit from his body!
"If you don't want to be wiped out in ashes, you'd better come over!"
Lin Ling said something in a low voice, causing his ghost body to tremble, suppressed by his innate nature, and then he was wrapped in flame chains and pulled in front of Lin Ling.
