Ghost daughter-in-law

"No. In the past, if you could see it, you were very lucky. The chance of catching it was almost zero." Zheng Xinli said without any ambiguity, refusing to give me any hope.

"Aren't you the chief of the Demon Control Bureau? All the demons in the world are under your control, so there's nothing you can do about it?" I was very anxious, if I couldn't catch that ginseng spirit, Yun'er would be in danger.

"First of all, I want to correct a mistake in your perception. Our Demon Management Bureau only controls a part of the demons to maintain the general balance of the world. For the demons like ginseng spirits who occupy mountains and become kings, we generally do not violate the river. As long as they Don't overdo things, we will never take action." Zheng Xinli explained.

"My lord, this is a matter of life and death, don't be joking!" At this time, my heart was cold.

"Do you think I look like I'm joking?" Zheng Xinli turned her extremely serious face so that I could see it more clearly.

"Don't talk so much useless, do you have any plans?"

"Yes, adapt to the situation!"

As soon as Zheng Xinli's words came out of my mouth, I gave her a blank look. Doesn't it mean that she didn't say anything?

"Remember, the two of us are just trading now. I'll help you rescue that female ghost. Tell me what you know. As for whether I can do it, that's my business. At most, it's the deal." If I fail, I have nothing to lose." Zheng Xinli said calmly, and I suddenly felt that this woman had an official tone, was extremely cold-blooded and ruthless, and had a weird personality.

This is the end of the story, what else can I say, I can only resign myself to fate, at least I follow her now, and I still have a chance to find a thousand-year-old ginseng.

After a moment of silence, Zheng Xinli asked again: "Who gave you that tattoo on your chest?"

"My grandfather, I was in poor health when I was a child, so he engraved it on me, saying to keep me safe!" I didn't speak angrily, now that she has drawn the boundary between me and her so clearly, why should I tell her the truth Besides, I haven't figured out the dragon pattern myself.

Zheng Xinli obviously knew that I was fooling her, so she gave me a blank look, and asked me a question again: "Is the person holding that female ghost named Zhou Yun?"

"How do you know?" I blurted out.

"After knowing that your target is Jiuqiao Village, I went to check the file of Jiuqiao Village, and I know what happened more than [-] years ago. One of the key figures in it is Zhou Yun, but what happened back then was not under the control of the Demon Management Bureau. So I didn’t find much useful information.” Zheng Xinli didn’t even look at me: “Do you know what Zhou Yun’s purpose for asking for thousand-year-old ginseng is?”

"Bai Ling hurt a child in the village. I guess Zhou Yun wanted to heal that child!" I didn't lie to her.

"You mean, besides Zhou Yun, there are living people in Jiuqiao Village?" Zheng Xinli turned her head to look at me in surprise, her eyes seemed to ask: You are not lying to me, are you?

"It's because this child was injured by Bai Ling that Zhou Yun went mad and took Yun'er hostage."

"Is he also responsible for your injuries?" Zheng Xinli asked.

I nodded, and Zheng Xinli asked again: "Why did Bai Ling hurt a child, and where did Bai Ling go?"

I shook my head. The questions she asked are the ones I most want to know the answer to right now.

Before I knew it, Zheng Xinli had asked me several questions. Seeing that she wanted to ask more, I quickly said, "Hey! Don't ask, we are in a business relationship now, and I have to wait for you if I want to know the ins and outs of the matter." Help me find the thousand-year-old ginseng."

She said the business relationship. I can't blame me for that. I don't believe anyone except myself now. Now that the boundary has been drawn, keep a good distance.

Zheng Xinli gave me a meaningful look, then she stopped talking, and then she quickened her pace. I obviously felt that her pace was not fast, but I even trotted and chased her with difficulty.

However, her speed is just what I want. Now that time is running out, and I don't know how the situation will be when I get to the place, I must race against time.

We didn't talk along the way, and Zheng Xinli never slowed down. She didn't even consider that I was a seriously injured person.

Although we are in the Changbai Mountains, Zheng Xinli always chooses the roads that are inaccessible, and sometimes we don't even take the roads. In this kind of deep mountains and dense forests, it is common to go through the thorny bushes.

So, at dusk, after Zheng Xinli took me to that destination, I was so tired that I was almost out of breath.

I stood behind Zheng Xinli, hunched over, dripping with sweat.On the other hand, Zheng Xinli seemed to be okay, her face was not blushing and her heart was not beating after walking such a long distance.

The woman looked at me contemptuously.

"With your physical strength, it's a miracle that you can survive to this day!" Zheng Xinli did not hide her contempt for me.

Now I'm really tired and out of breath, I don't want to talk to her anymore, she can say whatever she likes.

Seeing that I didn't fight back, Zheng Xinli felt bored and didn't speak again. I took a long time to catch my breath.

When I straightened up, a huge valley appeared in front of my eyes. It was almost dusk, the sun was setting, and the whole valley was hidden in dark shadows.

"Is this the valley you mentioned?" I was still panting slightly.

"Are you alright?" Zheng Xinli was a little impatient. I knew that she stayed here for so long just to wait for me to catch my breath.

"Okay!" I puffed up my chest, patted it, and said firmly.Unexpectedly, Zheng Xinli just turned her head and gave me a questioning look, and walked into the valley without saying a word.

After entering the valley, I found that the inside was darker than I thought, with dense weeds, and nearly one-third of the valley had been occupied by dense forests.

Occasionally, a group of late-returning mountain birds flew over our heads, and all kinds of insects hid in the grass and competed, adding a bit of vitality to the valley.

Constantly approaching the depths of the valley, my heart gradually lifted.

Chapter 134: Strange things

I didn't feel the size of this valley until I entered it. After walking for so long, we still haven't reached the center.In addition, the sun has completely sunk into the horizon, and you can't see your fingers in the valley.

Zheng Xinli took out a small pocket flashlight from nowhere, and it only illuminated a small area in front of her. With the contrast of her little light, my side became darker and darker.

Unknowingly, the surroundings seemed to be quiet, only the sound of our footsteps rustling in the grass could be heard.

In a quiet space, coupled with depression, people will always have many hallucinations. For example, now I always feel that there are things running around me.

The sound of rushing through the grass was very clear. At first I thought it was some kind of small beast, but after a while, there were more and more of these sounds, so many that they could be described as noisy.

But Zheng Xinli in front didn't seem to hear it, and didn't even turn her head to look around. Now I'm more sure that I'm hallucinating.

But we are so close, why am I the only one hallucinating?According to common sense, it shouldn't be!Is it really because I'm too picky?

But regardless of whether it was a hallucination or not, Zheng Xinli was not in a hurry, so there shouldn't be any major problems.I comforted myself, and was about to speed up my pace, but I suddenly felt that my feet were tripped by something, I staggered suddenly, and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, I had good balance and managed to stabilize my figure.

This sudden accident made me yell out, but Zheng Xinli still acted as if she hadn't heard it, she didn't even stop, she just walked forward on her own.

At this moment, I had already stopped and looked under my feet, but I didn't find anything unusual, and it was pitch black, so I quickly turned around and followed Zheng Xinli again.

"Hey! That..." I wanted to ask Zheng Xinli if she heard anything, but as soon as I opened my mouth, she said seriously: "We are surrounded, don't wander around, just follow me!"

surrounded?Surrounded by who?

It turned out that Zheng Xinli also heard the voices around her, but she just pretended to be calm. The aura of the dignified chief executive is different, and he is still calm when he is surrounded.But now I am still more concerned about who we are surrounded by.

"Who...who surrounded us?" As soon as I said the question, I suddenly felt my ankle being grabbed by a cold hand, and then pulled violently.

My entire vision was like a camera that was suddenly knocked over, spinning around.The most frightening thing was that this time the hand didn't let go of me, but kept pulling me back.

Immediately afterwards, many hands appeared out of nowhere around me. They grabbed my body and cooperated with each other. I was grabbed by them like an object and shuttled through the dense forest.

"Lin Mo!" I only heard Zheng Xinli scream, and then several childlike voices rang in my ears.

"Who is that woman?"

"do not know!"
