"Immortals, I'm so sorry."
The woman hurriedly apologized to Li Nianfan and the other two. Then, she said softly, "I didn't mean to hide it. If my husband knew that you were immortals, it wouldn't be good."
Li Nianfan asked curiously, "Why? Does your village have some prejudice against immortal cultivators? "
"Hehe, it's not a big deal. Immortals, please feel free to stay." The woman changed the topic and eagerly tidied up Li Nianfan's room.
Soon, a side room was emptied.
"I won't disturb the three of you." The woman closed the door.
Nanna immediately pouted and said softly, "Hmph, this village is so weird. I feel like there's something wrong with everyone."
"There's something wrong. Why would mortals reject immortal cultivators when they see them?"
Li Nianfan touched his chin and frowned. "Also, along the way, the people here all looked troubled. The men's pupils were dilated and their Qi and blood were weak. It's really not normal."
He had medical skills. The people in this village were really weak. Some of the men were even weaker than the women.
It was fine if their Qi and blood were weak, but the man even knew to eat ginseng to replenish his Qi and blood.
Li Nianfan did not understand. Did he expect to use ginseng to replenish his Qi and blood?
Nanna's eyes rolled. Suddenly, she said, "Brother Nianfan, wait for me for a while."
Then, she rushed out of the door excitedly.
Li Nianfan could only helplessly remind her, "Don't run around!"
Soon, Nanna came back happily.
She could not stop smiling.
She was holding a package in her hand. She handed it to Li Nianfan as if she was presenting a treasure. "Brother Nianfan, look."
He opened the package. Inside was a ginseng that was half the size of a palm.
"Where did you get this?" Li Nianfan raised his eyebrows. He had already guessed it.
"Hehehe, that guy took the silver and immediately went to buy the ginseng. I saw him enter the alley and easily took it. Don't worry, I'm very professional."
Nanna sighed and said happily, "We won't let him spend our silver. It's obviously not a good thing!"
Li Nianfan asked, "You didn't hurt anyone, right?"
"No."
"That's good. Be a civilized person."
Li Nianfan nodded in satisfaction, but he felt a little strange..
Took the silver and immediately went to buy ginseng? Did he like to eat ginseng?
This was a little strange.
"Creak!"
The sound of the door opening came from outside, followed by the middle-aged man's cursing voice. "Unlucky, I'm so angry! . How's it's gone's it's's's
...... he.. he had no idea what happened.
The woman held a cup of tea and said, "Have some sobering tea first."
"Scram! It's all because of you! Don't bother me! "
The middle-aged man didn't even look at her. He lay on the ground again with the wine pot in his hand, living a drunken life.
"That bastard!"
Nanna rolled up her sleeves and was about to go out to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens. However, she was stopped by Li Nianfan.
"Don't meddle in other people's business. We're just passersby."
The sky quickly darkened.
The woman knocked on the door, "Three immortals, do you need something to eat?"
"No need. Thank you, benefactress."
The woman left.
She prepared to eat in the courtyard. The food was very simple, mainly steamed buns.
Only then did the middle-aged man get up from the ground and eat two mouthfuls. His dispirited expression became quite excited, as if he was looking forward to something.
Gradually, the night deepened.
Layers of black curtains covered the village and swallowed it whole.
The moon hung high in the sky, surrounded by stars. It seemed to be the only light in the world.
The night was as cold as water.
Li Nianfan was in the room. He was in a dilemma and was thinking about where to go.
Based on the information of the southwest direction, the area was too big. The Immortal Realm didn't even have a map. It was worse than his previous life.
Seeing that the night was getting darker, Li Nianfan yawned and got ready to sleep.
He could only take one step at a time.
Nannan and Dragin, on the other hand, were cultivating by the side. This kind of sense of security was quite sufficient.
In the middle of the night, Li Nianfan was woken up by a quarrel.
"Where are you going? Don't go!"
"Go away! Don't meddle in my business!"
"Don't go! Are you crazy? I won't allow you to go! "
Then, there was a "Bam!" sound.
Then, there was the sound of the door opening. A figure walked away with the sound of footsteps.
Li Nianfan's sleepiness faded a little.
Nanna was furious. "Brother Nianfan, this person is so annoying. He hit a woman. Let's teach him a lesson, okay?"
Li Nianfan realized that something was wrong. "Let's see how it goes first."
That woman looked like a weak person. It must be something serious for her to be so resistant.
"That's easy. Watch me!"
Long 'er smiled, revealing two sharp canine teeth. She extended two fingers and there were two small ripples on them.
Then, she drew a line in front of her. The ripples formed a water ring in the air.
Then, she made a hand seal and pointed at the water ring.
"Watch my Mirror Flower, Water Moon Technique."
Above the ring, a layer of bubbles condensed. Accompanied by a flash of brilliance, images began to appear like a mirror.
In the image, it was the middle-aged man.
'Damn! Awesome!'
Li Nianfan was stunned. His first reaction was that it was a godly skill. The Gospel of the Otaku!
He could see everything without any blind spots. Ptui ptui ptui …
He quickly pulled himself back to reality.
Long 'er looked up, waiting for the compliment. "Brother, am I awesome?"
"Awesome, really awesome."
Li Nianfan was envious. 'Immortal cultivation is awesome. I can't take it anymore. I want to cultivate more and more.'
His attention returned to the Mirror Flower, Water Moon Technique.
The middle-aged man hurried to the village road. He looked hurried and his eyes were shining with excitement. He could not wait.
He was not the only one here. Many men from the village had gathered. Without exception, they all came from their homes.
They were all sallow and skinny. They were listless during the day, but they were very excited now.
"Almost everyone is here. Let's go. Don't delay!"
"Yeah, don't let the beauty wait too long. Hurry, I can't wait."
"Oh right, Big Mountain. Did you know that three Immortals came to your house?"
Big Mountain was the middle-aged man. When he heard this, his expression changed. He cursed, "What? That bitch. Why did she bring Immortals to her house? "
Everyone was worried. "You didn't attract the attention of the Immortals, did you?"
Big Mountain waved his hand. "Don't worry, I didn't. Besides, the three of them don't look that powerful. They won't pay attention to us."
Someone asked again, "Will your wife go to the Immortals and ruin our plans?"
"If she dares, I'll skin her alive!" Big Mountain snorted. "Stop talking. Let's go."
"Wait for us."
A shout came from behind him. Then, he saw two figures, one old and one young, walking over in a hurry.
"Village Chief?"
Everyone was stunned. Then, they all revealed a wretched smile. "You're already so old. Aren't you afraid of dying if you go over?"
The white-haired village chief said, "I'm useless, but I have my son to take care of it for me."
"What a good son! It's good to have a son. When he's old, he can still enjoy the good fortune of being with his son. "
Everyone sighed. Then, they hurried out of the village. When they walked out of the village, the scene stopped.
Li Nianfan was enjoying the scene. "What's behind us?"
Long 'er pouted. She felt wronged. "Catoptric Deflection requires us to place the water mark at the place we want to see. I felt that this village was weird so I only set the water mark in the village. Who knew that they would leave the village?"
So that was the case.
No wonder the two girls stayed outside for a long time. They were probably setting up the so-called water mark.
Li Nianfan realized that although the two girls were playful, they were alert and careful. They were not easily taken advantage of. Huo Feng had taught them well.
Nanna said expectantly, "They're obviously up to no good. Brother Nianfan, let's follow them."
Li Nianfan sighed. Even if he wanted to interfere, he had to ask the woman first to understand what happened.
Knock, knock, knock.
At the same time, someone knocked on the door. "I'm here to see the three Immortals."
What a coincidence.
Nanna immediately ran over to open the door.
When the woman saw the three of them, she started sobbing. There was even a red handprint on her face. She looked pitiful.
"I beg the three Immortals to help me." She knelt on the ground. Her eyes were almost pleading.
Li Nianfan looked calm. He asked, "What happened?"
The woman was sobbing. She took a deep breath and said, "Our village used to be filled with men farming and women weaving. We had houses and fields. Life was very happy. However, five female ghosts suddenly came and ruined the entire village. Every family was killed."
"Female ghosts?" Li Nianfan's eyes lit up. He finally met a ghost.
The woman continued, "Those female ghosts are addicted to sucking the Yang energy of living people. They have bewitched the entire village. Now, they don't care about anything else. They only wait to run over every night and let them suck their Yang energy. The entire village can no longer survive."
Nanna frowned. She said with hatred, "These female ghosts are really evil. Don't worry, I'll help you get rid of them!"
The woman was overjoyed. She quickly kowtowed and thanked them. "Thank you, Immortal. Thank you, Immortal."
"Brother Nianfan."
Nanna's eyes sparkled as she looked at Li Nianfan. She was waiting for the order to take action.
Li Nianfan patted Nanna's head. He smiled and said, "Let's go. We'll go and take a look. Blackie, don't leave us behind."
The three of them followed the woman's instructions. They walked out of the village and went straight to the right. It was a forest beside the village.
Under the silent night sky, they couldn't see their own fingers. It made the place look even more desolate. They could vaguely see the shadows of the huge trees swaying in the night wind a few hundred meters away.
As they walked forward, they heard the sound of a guqin and a flute in the air.
The guqin was melodious. The flute was gentle and sorrowful. It tugged at their heartstrings.
The three of them and the dog could not help but quicken their pace.
After entering the forest, there was a flash of light in the darkness. The white light shrouded the area in front of them. However, it seemed illusory.
All the men in the village were there. There were also five figures.
They were five women. They were all wearing white chiffon dresses. Their dresses hung low with white ribbons that fluttered in the wind.
They were all rare beauties.
Among the five women, one was playing the guqin, one was playing the flute, and the other three were dancers.
Their movements were light and graceful. Their bodies were as light as the wind. Their feet did not touch the ground. They floated among the men, mesmerizing them.
The three dancers surrounded a man each time. Then, they would face each other. They would open their mouths and suck a little, extracting a wisp of Yang Qi from the man's body.
Just then, one of the dancers came to the side of the village chief.
She opened her mouth slightly. However, she realized that the old man was too weak to take a bite.
Beside the village chief, a young man chuckled and said, "Fairy, I'll treat my father this time. You can suck mine."
Li Nianfan's scalp went numb from this performance. It turned out that this thing could be treated. He learned a lot.
He also finally knew why the middle-aged man wanted to eat the ginseng. It turned out that he was saving money for prostitution.
"Shut up!"
Nanna jumped out, not understanding the situation at all. "A bunch of men and women, actually having illicit sexual intercourse here. I'm going to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens!"
Her little face was full of seriousness, but it was a pity that her terrible idiom ruined the solemnity of this moment.
"Cultivator?!"
The sound of the guqin and flute stopped abruptly. The five female ghosts turned pale and screamed in horror. They looked at Nanna uneasily.
The group of men also woke up in an instant. They were suddenly interrupted before they could enter a peaceful state. They immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation.
"We don't need you to care about our matters. Get lost. Don't ruin our good time!"
"Five fairies, don't be afraid. We will protect you."
"Yes, unless we die!"
"So what if you're a cultivator? So what if you're a cultivator? "
The group of men looked determined and fearlessly stood in front of the five female ghosts.
"Get lost!"
Nanna shouted. She raised her hand and punched a big tree at the side.
Immediately, waves of Qi passed through the entire row of trees, and over a dozen of them collapsed. Furthermore, they were crushed from the middle of their trunks.
"Sigh, get lost now."
The group of men did not say anything. They rolled and crawled to the side, trembling.
The five female ghosts floated to the front. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed in panic. "Senior Immortal, please spare our lives. Please spare us."
Nanna said, "Harming mortals is unforgivable!"
"Senior Immortal, us five sisters have never killed a single person. We relied on mutual consent. Please have mercy."
Li Nianfan shook his head and said, "Sucking people's Yang energy is equivalent to reducing their lifespan. It's also killing people."
"We had no choice. That's why we did this." One of them cried. "The five of us are just wandering ghosts. If we don't suck Yang energy, our souls will dissipate soon."
Long'er said, "You can go back to the Underworld."
"We can't go back to the Underworld."
The five of them shook their heads desperately. They seemed to be extremely afraid.
"Senior Immortal, you don't know. We can't reincarnate in the Underworld. We stay in the River Styx all year round. It's dark and we are bullied by the Ghost King. We really don't dare to go back."
"The five of us sisters were sold to brothels since we were young. We made a living by pleasing men. We had no freedom, no life. Our lives were worse than death. We agreed to jump into the lake to commit suicide. We thought that we would be free after death. Who would have thought that it would be like this."
"Even if we didn't live well, we never had the intention to harm others. We thought that if there was reincarnation, we could live a happier life in the next life. Now, this is not what we wanted."
"Senior Immortal, please have mercy. We don't want our souls to dissipate."
"Sob sob sob —"
The five of them talked about the sad past. They couldn't help but feel sad. Plus, they didn't know what would happen to them. They couldn't help but cover their faces and sob.
