Jun Li suddenly had this thought but stopped in a hurry. Although he did think it was very likely that Jiang Jincheng was buried alive by the female ghost as a revenge, but we should always think positively, right?

Maybe he's still alive...

Bai Ze's clothes seemed to have lost their fragrance because of the foul smell in Li Dongli's room. He quickly covered his nose and snuggled into Jun Li's arms again.

Jun Li's train of thought was interrupted but he didn't get angry. He patted Bai Ze on the back gently and glanced quickly at Xiao Ling.

Okay, Xiao Ling is now so shocked that he can’t speak… Then…

Jun Li quickly adjusted his sitting position to block Bai Ze, then gently pinched Bai Ze's chin and kissed the corner of his mouth.

"Be good, bear with it."

Bai Ze felt a little uncomfortable and restless. He licked the wetness at the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue and then took the initiative to move closer to chase Jun Li's thin lips.

For the first time, Bai Ze impatiently used the tip of his tongue to scrape Jun Li's mouth, sucking hard for a long time, as if this was the only way to let the smell of Jun Li's body block out the pungent stench.

Jun Li let him toss and turn like this, and the tip of his tongue, which had finally been separated, also left out a silver line.

Bai Ze swallowed his saliva but still buried his face in his arms feeling extremely uncomfortable.

“It stinks…it smells so bad…”

Jun Li could sense that Bai Ze had been swallowing rapidly, as if he was really about to vomit, so he quickly opened the unopened bottle of mineral water he had brought from the car and asked him to drink some more.

"good…"

Jun Li really didn't know how to comfort him. They certainly couldn't just go out in this state. Although they could hear the conversation between the village chief and Li Dongli no matter where they went, the two of them were talking at the gate, so Jun Li couldn't just rush out the gate with Bai Ze!

"Good boy...your husband will hold you."

Jun Li could only hold Bai Ze in his arms and let him smell the scent on his body to relieve the stench.

"It seems to me that so many people are missing in the village, and now it's the men who are missing. This must be retribution for you trafficking women everywhere!"

Li Dongli spat harshly and said in a cold voice: "Haven't you sold enough people in the past few years? Haven't you had enough women beaten to death for being disobedient? Now you're getting your retribution! They've turned into wronged spirits and are here to claim your life!"

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible that those women are asking for my life!"

The village chief's extremely firm rejection made Li Dongli suspicious: "Why? Do you know something?"

The village chief didn't say anything but Jun Li could feel his panic. It was exactly as he guessed. The female ghost was different from those ordinary abducted girls. She was buried alive because of a ghost marriage, so she was full of resentment. Those ordinary girls who were beaten to death did not suffer the abuse that the female ghost suffered, so they did not have such a strong resentment that could form a fierce ghost.

"Don't worry about it. I still say the same thing. You have helped to capture the escaped girl, and you have also killed someone! Don't think that you can sit back and relax after getting promoted!"

The village chief was threatening his career as expected. He said grimly, "If the secret of Qin Village is exposed, neither you nor those officials will be able to escape!"

"Okay, okay, got it!"

Li Dongli was so annoyed that he remembered, "Hey! A few leaders were sent down from above to secretly inspect our work. They said they wanted to take some photos of the daily life of the villagers in Qin Village. You see, arrange for a few villagers whose homes are quiet to stay in the house tonight."

The village chief was obviously alert and asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure you are here to inspect the village construction work? You are not the police here to investigate a case?"

"Let me tell you! More than a decade ago, a college student and educated youth deliberately leaked the news and called the police anonymously!"

"Fortunately, we had already agreed on a statement, so we didn't get any information out of the police. The police probably thought the anonymous report was unconvincing, so they sent one officer down. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and called the previous village party secretary who had just been promoted and asked him to settle the matter."

"Damn it! The police were really good. They were able to find the woodshed after they had a unified story! If the call had been made a little later and the woman had been rescued, our village would have been ruined!"

The village chief was obviously gritting his teeth at the police, but Li Dongli didn't care: "No way, I've seen the certificate and the official seal. It's indeed someone from above who came to inspect."

"That's fine. I'll check to see which girls have been sold tonight and tell them to live in the place where they have been sold. Otherwise, some dishonest bitch might try to take advantage of these girls from above to run away and cause trouble!"

"Well, then go in and talk to them. It's not good to leave them hanging for so long."

At this moment, the conversation between the two ended and the talisman paper became invalid. Xiao Ling frowned but managed to relax his expression. After all, if he kept a stern face when facing those two people, there would definitely be problems.

Bai Ze also sat up at this time and regained his previous composure. Sure enough, behind Li Dongli was an old man who looked to be in his fifties. Both of them smiled and looked at Jun Li and the others very kindly, as if the dispute just now had nothing to do with them.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I was just talking to the village chief and was delayed for quite a while."

Li Dongli is really good at acting. If they hadn't used talisman paper to eavesdrop, they would have been fooled by him.

"No, the village's affairs are more important, so it's okay for us to wait."

Jun Li asked casually, "Did something difficult happen? Why did you come back only now?"

"Oh, it's nothing. The chickens of my aunt in the village ran away. What big thing can happen in our small place? The chickens climbed over the wall and ran away early in the morning. Everyone is helping my aunt find the chickens."

The village chief laughed, and it was obvious that he had already been proficient in dealing with such interrogations. He could lie without blinking an eye. Jun Li knew that he could not get anything out of such an old-fashioned man, so he just asked directly: "Then just look for it. We are relieved that nothing has happened in the village. I see that it is getting late now, so I wonder..."

"Oh! I'll arrange accommodation for you right away. Don't worry, I won't leak any information that would affect your work."

The village chief called them directly and arranged for them to live in the home of a wealthy landlord in the village. It was not easy for such a poor village to have a landlord, and his home was quite nice, with a small house and a large yard.

The village chief must have made an agreement, so he smiled and said to Jun Li and the others, "Considering that you are going to inspect the work, we will not let you live separately. Landlord Zheng's house is the most decent in our village, and it is also the only one that can provide three guest rooms at a time. The environment is also the best. Please don't mind."

"No, no, we were thinking we would have to live separately. The village chief has solved a lot of problems for us, and we have to say thank you."

Xiao Ling adjusted his state and nodded with a smile. Li Dongli immediately said, "Hey! Then don't leave yet! Come to our house and have dinner before you leave!"

Bai Ze almost wanted to drag Jun Li away when he heard this. Jun Li was just thinking about how to refuse the village chief when he spoke first: "No matter how good your food is, can it compare to the food at Zheng Youqian's house? It's not easy for the leaders to come all the way here, just let Zheng Youqian entertain them! Don't get involved!"

Li Dongli's face was obviously not looking good. He originally wanted to use eating and drinking to get closer to Jun Li and the others so that when they returned, they could say a few nice words about him. But now, everything was ruined by the village chief.

The village chief did not give Li Dongli any chance at all and enthusiastically led Jun Li and the other two away. Bai Ze could no longer hold back and dragged Jun Li out to breathe in deep breaths of air.

Although there is a stench of corpse outside, it is much more comfortable than inside the house.

Bai Ze grabbed Jun Li's clothes and relaxed. After gargling for a long time, he spoke with a heavy breath: "I don't understand why... This village is really strange..."

"Jun Li..."

Bai Ze gently wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and whispered: "This place is filled with the strange smell of corpses, but not every place smells the same."

"Some places have a strong odor that makes me want to vomit... but some places have only a faint odor..."

Bai Ze covered his mouth and coughed again. He looked at Jun Li and said softly, "Jun Li, do you think the density of the strange energy is also hinting at something..."
