Mysterious Resurrection: Seize the Artifact

Chapter 296 The old man who intends to knock the sap
In the quiet night, Lin Qian was walking on the shore, the moonlight was reflected in the water, causing slight ripples.

The moonlight rises from the sky and falls on the mountains, the waterside is quiet, and the sound of the water is turbulent.

The fluttering red windbreaker is extraordinarily bright in the moonlight.

"Old guy, you followed me all the way, what do you want to do? You have a shovel in your hand, maybe you want to hit me on the head."

Lin Qian stopped walking and turned to look at the nearby woods.

There was an old man who quietly followed him all the way. His body smelled like a dead body, and he could smell it from a long distance away.

The old man was silent, his eyes were a little wandering, and he silently put the shovel in his hand behind his back.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qian's face turned dark at the time, it turned out that he really had this idea.

"Ahem, the old man saw that you were too fierce. He thought it was some kind of terrifying ghost, so he wanted to follow up and have a look..."

"Now it seems that you are not a ghost... No... You seem to be a ghost..."

The old man scratched his head, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Hearing the old man's words, the corners of Lin Qian's mouth twitched twice:

"Co-author, you think I'm a ghost, so you just want to hit me on the head?"

"Then have you ever thought that just relying on your thing, you can beat me?"

amount……

"I was careless. I didn't pay attention to it. I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just saw that you were fierce, so the old man followed."

"Now that I think about it, this thing alone really can't beat you, I should have brought my pole..."

Lin Qian was expressionless.

"You still want to fuck me?"

The old guy was out of the question.

The old man was a little embarrassed, and hid the shovel behind again:
"Well, it doesn't mean that you are human... No, what are you, tell the old man first, you look like a human."

Lin Qian was speechless. Looking at the old man hiding in the darkness, he could be sure that this guy had some brain problems.

There must be a problem. If there is no problem, why would you want to knock the head of the starving ghost?
"Then do you think I'm a human or a ghost?" Lin Qian said.

"Uh...you don't look like a person." The old man pondered for a moment, then said solemnly.

"The old man thinks you are a ghost, an extremely terrifying ghost!"

Lin Qian: ...

"I just thought you were praising me." Lin Qian said with a dark face.

"Okay, what do you need to ask me? I don't believe you are here to knock me on the head." Lin Qian stared at the old man.

The old man's skin is wrinkled, and his face is covered with age spots. I don't know what caused it. The old man's skin is extremely pale.

The old man looked at Lin Qian with cloudy eyes, smiled awkwardly, and said nothing.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qian's face suddenly became gloomy:
"Fuck, you old bastard is really here to beat me on the head."

"Uh... young man, don't be angry, the old man is just in case."

"After all, it's not peaceful here. There are too many ghosts. If such a terrifying ghost suddenly appears, the old man will of course come to ambush him."

"It's a pity that the old man hid it so well, but you actually discovered it. This kind of thing has never happened before."

"In the past, the old man knocked on Li Gui with every accuracy. How could you find out like today?"

The old man explained with some embarrassment.

"Besides, the ghost coffin is about to come out recently. If the old man doesn't clean up the ghosts around him a little bit, there will be big problems after that thing comes out."

"Yesterday, that little bastard said something to the old man. There was a headquarter captain coming over, but the old man waited for a whole day, but he didn't see any captain."

"The little bastard must be lying to the old man and making fun of the old man."

"Good boy, if the old man doesn't give him a good meal when he goes back, he even dares to make jokes about the old man."

The more the old man talked, the more he deviated from the topic, and finally he explained how to deal with the little bastard.

Lin Qian just listened like this, and the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. Why did he feel that this guy was the target of his letter delivery this time, until he heard the old man talking to himself that he lived at the end of Huanghe Village, Lin Qian completely understood.

Well, the recipient knocks the sender on the head, what a joke.

"All right, all right, I'm not here to listen to your nagging."

Lin Qian hurriedly stopped the old man from chattering, if he didn't stop, Lin Qian felt that he could keep talking.

"Hey... it's like this when you get older, understand and understand."

The old man also realized that he had strayed far from the topic.

Lin Qian was a little convinced by this person, but after hearing the little bastard the old man said, Lin Qian knew who it was after a little thought.

The person in charge of Dahe City, Nie Shen, code name: Corpse Fisherman.

"Is the little bastard you're talking about Nie Shen, the person in charge of Dahe City?" Lin Qian thought for a while, it would be better to ask first, if he makes a mistake, it won't be very fun.

"That's right, that's the little bastard Nie Shen. He knows how to fool the old man all day long. What's the matter, you know him?" When the old man heard the name Nie Shen, he immediately became angry.

Obviously, the old man had a lot of resentment towards Nie Shen.

Lin Qian nodded, thought for a while and said:

"Okay, I don't want to bother with you about the fact that you want to beat me with a stick. I am Lin Qian from Dajiang City, one of the captains of the headquarters."

"If nothing else happens, the captain Nie Shen is talking about should be me."

Lin Qian didn't bother to talk to the old man anymore, so he quickly identified his identity, and then inquired about the Yellow River ghost coffin. There is no need to send the letter for the time being. Anyway, the time has not come yet, so don't worry.

Hearing Lin Qian's words, the old man obviously hesitated, and asked tentatively:
"Are you joking? Did you lie to the old man? The old man is too old to stand being cheated."

The old man obviously couldn't believe it, how could there be such a coincidence in this world, that the person he wanted to hit with a sap one second, would become an ally in the next second.

how can that be!

Seeing that the old man didn't believe it, Lin Qian didn't bother to say anything, turned around and left:
"Believe it or not, it's so wordy."

Seeing Lin Qian turn around and leave, the old man became anxious and ran out of the woods in a hurry.

The spirit subsided, the old man walked quickly to Lin Qian's side, and looked Lin Qian up and down:

"No lie? Is it really the captain?"

Lin Qian rolled his eyes at the old man who followed him all the way just to knock him over with a shovel, he was too lazy to talk nonsense, and walked without saying a word.

The old man was dressed in plain sackcloth, with an old red rope tied around his wrist, and a small black bell hung around his waist. The small bell was covered with rust, and it was an old thing that was unknown for how many years.

And the shovel was pinned on the old man's waist. The shovel was also rusty and looked old.

These three things are all supernatural items. This old man is very, very strong.

This is also the reason why Lin Qian didn't act immediately.

It's not that he can't do it, it's just that there's no need to be tough. This old man is a different kind, a very special kind.

You can't kill him unless you eat it.

The old man saw that Lin Qian didn't speak, and he didn't care, so he continued to ask:
"Young man, how did you do it? The first time the old man saw you, he thought you were a ghost. I have seen other aliens, but the old man can tell they are aliens at a glance."

"But you are different. At first glance, I only thought you were a ghost. You must know that the old man's eyes are very vicious, but that's just how it is. The old man didn't even recognize you as a human being."

"Boy, tell me quickly, how did you do it, the old man wants to learn."

Lin Qian looked up at the moonlight, um, the moonlight is beautiful today, very suitable for sending invitations.

"Want to learn? Yes, this way, on April [-]th this year, you go to Dachuan City, and I will teach you when the time comes." Lin Qian began to fool around.

He wanted to trick the old man into attending the wedding, but he didn't know if it would work, it would be the best, but it wouldn't...

Uh... well, the old man is not a fool.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, the old man subconsciously moved away from Lin Qian, and then the old man said with some sorrow:
"Young man, the old man admits that he has never offended you. Although he wanted to hit you on the head before, it didn't work."

"But why do you want to kill the old man? Are you three years old?"

"What is a yin marriage, the old man doesn't know? Be good, that's the scariest thing. She's much scarier than that coffin in the river."

"You let the old man go there, isn't that letting the old man die?"

"Young man, why did you hurt me!"

Lin Qian's face was ashen, and he took a deep breath, and he didn't want to talk anymore.

"Okay, if you don't go, you won't go. Why do you have such a big reaction? I said it as if I wanted to force you to go." Lin Qian was speechless.

Hearing Lin Qian's words, the old man seemed to be relieved, and slowly leaned over.

"Really?"

"Really!" Lin Qian said lightly.

"That's good, young man, as long as you don't mention yin marriage, we will still be good friends." The old man nodded and said.

Hearing this, Lin Qian was a little strange:
"how old are you?"

"102, what's the matter?" the old man asked with some doubts.

Lin Qian nodded when she heard this age, and then said nothing.

outrageous...

102 years old, befriending a young man in his early 20s...

Wangnianjiao is not like this.

"Young man, why are you asking this?" The old man turned to look at Lin Qian.

Apparently he was interested in this question.

"Nothing, just curiosity." Lin Qian said casually.

"Is that so, the old man understands." The old man nodded and said.

The icy cold wind blows from the river, and the sleeves are flowing. It's a pity that neither of them has long hair, so they don't have that kind of fairy demeanor.

"Tell me, what happened to the ghost coffin." Lin Qian asked suddenly after being silent for a while.

Hearing this question, the old man thought for a while and said it very straightforwardly without hiding anything.

The quiet shore, the rustling woods occasionally blown by the wind, and two old and young walking by the river at night?

"The ghost coffin is a little troublesome. It was originally tied to a pillar."

"It was nothing at first, the coffin and the pillars are in the deepest part of the river, so there won't be any problems, but isn't there a great spiritual recovery recently?"

"A lot of ghosts suddenly appeared in the river. The old man didn't clean it up for a while, and accidentally let fifty or sixty ghosts touch the coffin."

"Actually, it's nothing. According to the old man's estimate, those ghosts shouldn't have any effect on the coffin."

"The fact is the same. Those ghosts really couldn't do anything to that coffin, but that's where the bad things happened."

"Because there are too many ghosts gathered, the old man won't be able to clean them up for a while, so one of them didn't pay attention, and didn't notice that the coffin was opened a crack."

"So a tragedy happened. The ghost pillar was fine, but the chains that bound the coffin were broken."

"No, the coffin is not bound by these chains, and it will surface in a short time."

"The old man has been trying to figure out a way for the past two days, but unfortunately the old man's brain is not very good, so he couldn't think of a way." The old man said with a sigh.

Lin Qian frowned:
"How did the chain break?"

Hearing this question, the old man's eyes began to flicker, obviously a little guilty.

In the end, the old man simply shouted haha:
"Ah, what are you talking about? Well, the chain just broke by itself, and the old man doesn't know what happened."

Lin Qian looked at the appearance of the old man looking up at the moon, and already had a guess in his heart.

"Isn't it you who broke the chain?"

"Uh...how could it be! How could the old man do such a thing..."

Lin Qian stared at him like this, the old man's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally the old man said with a little confidence:
"The old man didn't know that the chain was so fragile. The old man just wanted to hook those ghosts up, but accidentally hooked the pole to it, and then...then it broke..."

"It's not the old man's fault, the old man didn't expect this to happen."

Lin Qian nodded expressionlessly, um...it's pretty much what he thought.

"What's in the coffin?"

Lin Qian didn't bother to worry about the old man breaking the chain. He was very curious about what was inside the coffin and what was there that could attract fifty or sixty ghosts to gather.

Can that thing also attract ghosts?

"Ghost? Besides ghosts, what else can be inside the coffin, could it be a human?" The old man looked at Lin Qian with an idiot expression.

The old man was surprised, surprised how such a question came out of his mouth.

What else could be in the coffin?Not a ghost or what?This young man seems to be quite smart, how can he ask these questions that are not very good for his brain?

Lin Qian looked at the old man expressionlessly, and suddenly he really wanted to hit the old man.

As soon as the old man saw Lin Qian's expression, he immediately moved away from Lin Qian, with an extremely vigilant look:

"Young man, what do you want to do? A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands. This is something that elementary school students understand, and you don't know how to respect the old and love the young?"

"Young man, you can't fight with the old man. The old man is already old. Are you really capable?"

Lin Qian fell silent, looked away from the old man, and continued to walk forward, suddenly he didn't want to ask what was inside the ghost coffin.

What he originally wanted to ask was whether the thing in the ghost coffin had any origin, that is, folklore left behind.

But looking at the situation, it is estimated that there is nothing to ask.

The surface of the river was choppy, and occasionally fish jumped out of the water. Lin Qian walked towards the Yellow River Village expressionlessly.

The wind is a bit noisy tonight, it would be much better without that old man.

Seeing that Lin Qian was ignoring him, the old man hurriedly followed him.

"Young man, isn't that right? The old man is very old, how can he do something to the old man?"

"One has to be reasonable, just like the old man..."

The old man began to chatter in Lin Qian's ear, Lin Qian never looked at the old man from the beginning to the end, and walked forward on his own.

But suddenly, Lin Qian's body slowly began to disappear, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The old man looked at this scene dumbfounded, and then the old man sighed:

"Young man, you don't talk about Wude, but you actually use Huangquan..."

As the old man said, he also disappeared in place. Obviously, he also had a ghost domain.

middle reaches of the river.

Lin Qian looked at the village in front of him, his eyes flickered, and he looked up at the moonlight, but he couldn't see the exact time after looking for a long time.

Lin Qian honestly took out his mobile phone to check the time, it was seven o'clock in the evening.

Seeing this time, Lin Qian's eyes flickered, looking at the village shrouded in darkness, there were no lights anymore.

It was only seven o'clock, and the lights in the village were already turned off.

Lin Qian looked at the stone tablet at the entrance of the village, on which the words Huanghe Village were engraved.

Behind the stele is a tall poplar tree, and strips of red cloth are tied to this poplar tree. The cloth strips are fluttering, making it difficult to see what is written on it.

If there are no problems, it is probably just some blessings.

Although I don't know if it is the folk custom here, but Lin Qian doesn't care about these.

Lin Qian appeared on the highest branch of the poplar with a flash, overlooking the entire Huanghe Village.

Huanghe Village is neither big nor small. There are no more than a hundred households from the beginning to the end of the village. There is a willow at the head of the village and an old locust tree at the end of the village.

The houses are well arranged and look very stylish. The main road in the village is on the cement road, running through the village head and the village tail.

There are several electric poles standing in the village, and the wires pass over the village. It looks messy, but it is actually orderly.

Generally speaking, there are no problems in the village, except that there is a peach branch and a red string hanging on the door of every household, and I don't know what they are used for.

A black rope is hung on the old locust tree at the end of the village, and a black cloth is worn under the rope. The smell of corpses on it is very strong, but ordinary people seem to be unable to smell this smell.

It should be the method of the old man. There is a small wooden house behind the old pagoda tree, which should be the old man's residence.

The whole hut was filled with a chill.

Lin Qian stared at all of this, with some surprise in his eyes:

"Nie Shen's inheritance should be that old man, the corpse hunter, sounds very powerful."

Lin Qian appeared under the old locust tree, and looked up at the old tree that had lived for an unknown amount of time.

The roots of the old tree are intertwined, and a hammock is hung on a branch above it, which is not low from the ground, so it should not have been made by a child.

It's more like the old man did it himself. Thinking of the old man's character, it's really possible to do such a thing.

Lin Qian sighed, and turned to look at an old man slowly coming from the village, feeling a little helpless, he really didn't want to communicate with old man Zhang anymore.

"Young man, if you don't talk about martial arts, you ran away before the old man finished speaking. This is not authentic."

The corner of Lin Qian's mouth twitched, not wanting to speak.
