Zhao Hai rode his magic horse and slowly headed towards the Li Jia Village. Although he hadn't gone to the Li Jia Village to complete his mission, his harvest was already not small. Of course, this harvest wasn't referring to material gains, but rather the fact that he had made friends with Su Dingshan and the others.
Su Dingshan had received Lin Erfeng's teachings, so his blade technique was very focused on imposing aura. Although he couldn't release his aura at any time like Lin Erfeng, but he was already faintly able to do so. His whole body was full of temperament, and he was definitely not a simple character.
Moreover, Yalong City was a very important branch of the Tyrant's Blade School. As the head of this branch, Lin Erfeng's words carried a lot of weight in the Tyrant's Blade School. And as his eldest disciple and successor, Su Dingshan's status in the Tyrant's Blade School wasn't low either.
Currently, Zhao Hai didn't know many people in the Tyrant's Blade School. After all, he had only been here for a year, and most of his time was spent on cultivation. It could be said that besides Dao Shu and the others, only Ge Yueyu was familiar with him. The others weren't very familiar with him.
Now that he could get to know Su Dingshan and form a good relationship with him, it would be good for his future development in the Tyrant's Blade School.
Although the disciples of the Tyrant's Blade School were known for their unity, Zhao Hai didn't believe that there weren't any factions within the Tyrant's Blade School. Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes.
However, Zhao Hai didn't want to participate too much in these matters, and with his status, it was still possible for him to not participate. Don't forget that he had two incomparably powerful masters. With these two great gods, who would dare to offend him?
Not wanting to participate in the struggle between factions didn't mean that he had to isolate himself. He could still fight with some disciples of other sects, after all, one more friend was always better than one more enemy.
A distance of more than a hundred miles was nothing for the Magical Horse. It arrived in less than two hours, and this was because it didn't run fast.
The Li Family Village was not a big village. The entire village only had a hundred or so households. Moreover, they all belonged to the Li Family. It was said that their ancestors were also disciples of the Tyrant's Blade School. However, there were fewer talented disciples later on. For several generations, there was no one with a Spirit Root. Therefore, they slowly went from being a subsidiary family of the Tyrant's Blade School to an ordinary family.
The Li Family Village was built at the foot of a small mountain. This village was not very high, but there was a river on the mountain that looked like a jade belt. The Li Family Village was connected to this river, so it could be considered a treasure land.
Zhao Hai stood outside the Li Jia Village and looked at it. Right now, it wasn't the time for farming, and the farmers didn't have much work to do. Therefore, the entire Li Jia Village was very quiet, it was like a paradise.
Zhao Hai observed for a moment. It was just as Su Dingshan said, the Li Jia Village didn't have any Yin Qi. It felt very peaceful and peaceful. How could such a place be haunted?
Zhao Hai patted the Magical Horse and walked towards the village. The Li Jia Village was mostly made of stone and wood. Each house had its own courtyard. Only one of the courtyards was the largest and most imposing. It seemed like this was the place where people with high status lived.
When Zhao Hai entered the village, he discovered something different. Generally, in the village, the villagers would gather in groups of three or five to drink tea and chat. Children would also run around the village. However, the Li Jia Village was different. There wasn't a single person in the entire Li Jia Village. Aside from a few barking sounds, it was as if he had entered a ghost village.
Zhao Hai noticed that there were people in the Li Jia Village. However, these people were currently hiding in their homes and didn't dare to come out. Zhao Hai didn't care about this. He rode his Magical Horse to the largest courtyard in the village. He jumped off the Magical Horse and walked to the courtyard's door. Then he gently patted the door and said, "Is there anyone here? I am a disciple of the Tyrant's Blade School. I received a mission to come here. If there is anyone here, please open the door. "
As soon as Zhao Hai's voice fell, the door creaked open. A young man was standing inside the door. He looked at Zhao Hai with an excited expression. When he saw Zhao Hai's attire and Magical Horse, the young man became even more excited. He immediately knelt down in front of Zhao Hai and said, "Sir, you've come. Our Li Jia Village is saved."
Zhao Hai quickly helped the young man up and said, "Get up and talk. What's going on? Why didn't the people in the village come out? "
The young man stood up and bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Replying to Sir, because the village is haunted, everyone is afraid. Therefore, no one came out. Sir, please go inside and rest." Then he turned around and let Zhao Hai enter the courtyard.
At this time, several people came out of the house. There were men and women, old and young. Zhao Hai counted them. There were more than ten people in the family. The oldest among them was an old man. He had white hair and age spots. He was holding a cane in his hand.
The young man who opened the door for Zhao Hai ran to the old man and loudly said, "Grandfather, this is Sir from the Tyrant's Blade School. He came to catch ghosts."
The old man was a bit hard of hearing, so the young man spoke so loudly. Fortunately, the old man heard what the young man said. He didn't make a mistake. Instead, he excitedly knelt down in front of Zhao Hai and said, "This little old man, Li Defu, greets Sir."
How could Zhao Hai let such an old man kowtow to him? He quickly supported the old man and loudly said, "Sir, there's no need to be so polite. I came here because I received a mission from the sect. Sir, please tell me what's going on with this haunted house."
The old man quickly said, "Sir is too polite. This little old man can't afford it. Please come in and have some tea."
Zhao Hai didn't decline and helped the old man into the house. The old man repeatedly said that he didn't dare. Zhao Hai didn't let go and helped the old man into the house.
After entering the house, Zhao Hai took out a pill and gave it to the old man and said, "Sir, I see that your hearing is a bit bad. Take this pill, it will make you feel better."
This was just an ordinary pill, but the old man was still excited. One must know that ordinary people couldn't eat this pill. This was a pill used by cultivators. The old man trembled as he received the pill. Then he knelt down in front of Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai quickly helped the old man up. The old man wanted to treat this pill as a family heirloom, but Zhao Hai didn't let him. Instead, he let the old man eat the pill.
After the old man took the pill, his ears turned old and his spirit was restored. After thanking Zhao Hai, the old man said, "Sir, this haunting started a month ago in our Li Family's Old Tomb. A month ago, our village's Li Zhuzi made a bet with several young people in the village that he wasn't afraid of ghosts, so he went to the Old Tomb and lived there. But the next day, he didn't come back. We went to the Old Tomb and saw that Li Zhuzi had died there. His death was very tragic, his heart had been dug out. Everyone was afraid, but they didn't think that it was a haunting. They thought that he had encountered some kind of monster beast, so they buried him. But in the following days, Li Suozi disappeared again. Everyone searched the entire village but couldn't find him. In the end, they found him in the Old Tomb. He was also killed and his heart was dug out. Everyone thought that it was a haunting, a ghost had dug out his heart, so we reported this matter to the higher-ups."
Speaking up to here, the old man paused, then he sighed and said, "But the ghost is really too cunning. When the Tyrant's Blade Sect came to Lesser Dragon City, it didn't make any movements. The Elders stayed in the village for two days and didn't find anything, so they went back. But when they went back, the ghost started to cause trouble again. From the time we discovered the haunting until now, more than ten people have died in our village. Everyone's heart was dug out. Sir, this time, you have to save our village."
Zhao Hai gently knit his brows and said, "When a Cultivator comes, it doesn't appear. When I leave, it comes out again. Now that I'm here, if it doesn't come out, then it will be troublesome. Old man, do you have a place to live here? Can you arrange it for me? Also, can you tell me the location of the Li Family's tomb? I want to see it. "
Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Sir, you can live in my house. There are a lot of rooms, enough for you to live in. Little Feng, go and prepare the rooms for everyone." The person who opened the door for Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned around and ran away.
Zhao Hai looked at the situation and knew that he had no choice but to live here. He nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll live here. Old man, can you tell me where the Li Family's tomb is? I want to see it. "
The old man quickly replied, "Sir, there's no need to worry. It's not too late to go after eating. I've already had someone prepare a meal."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Old man, there's no need to be polite. I'll go take a look first. It won't be too late to eat when I come back." When the old man heard Zhao Hai, he stood up and said, "Sir, please come with me."
After the two left the courtyard, the old man pointed to a small hill behind and said, "It's in an open space behind the forest. That's where the Li Family's tomb is located. It's not far from here. I'll have the villagers take you there."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, "There's no need for that. Thank you, Old man. I'll go by myself." After he said that, Zhao Hai cupped his fist to the old man. Then his figure moved and directly ran towards the back of the mountain.
Before long, they arrived at the back of the Li Family's village. The back of the village was maintained very well. There were a lot of trees on the mountain, most of them were pine trees. However, Zhao Hai could see that these pine trees were planted behind the village.
After passing through the pine forest, a grave mound appeared in front of Zhao Hai. These graves looked quite old. However, the Li Family's village seemed to have a habit of having round graves. Every year, they would add new soil to the graves. Because of this, the graves looked quite big.
Zhao Hai looked at these graves and couldn't help but frown. Although these graves were very old, there should be people taking care of them. They didn't look deserted. How could such a place be haunted? Moreover, he couldn't feel a trace of Yin Qi in this cemetery. It simply didn't meet the conditions of being haunted. What's going on?
After walking around the Li Family's tomb for a while, Zhao Hai didn't find anything. This made him somewhat disappointed. It seems like this matter wouldn't be solved in a short time.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but sigh. Then he turned around and went down the mountain. After arriving at the Li Family's village, Zhao Hai didn't directly go to the Li Family's residence. Instead, he walked around the village and looked at the terrain. The Li Family was originally a large family. Although they were separated, they weren't very far from each other. Because of this, the Li Family's village wasn't very big. After a while, Zhao Hai walked around the village and returned to the Li Family's residence.
