Kind of Immortals

Chapter 22
After two days of peace in Lingxi Mountain, disaster finally struck.

Many villagers in the town went into the mountain and knelt at the foot of the mountain, begging for help.

After inquiring, I learned that the villagers in the town suddenly contracted diseases, and many of them could not wake up from sleep, their faces turned pale.

"Immortal, please save our Xingtang Town, I am very grateful..."

At the foot of the mountain, there was a continuous sound of crying and shouting, You Ruo tore off the gauze around her neck, and was about to go down the mountain.

"Why are you going? The injury is still not healed." Qing Lin stopped You Ruo, not allowing her to leave.

You Ruo raised his neck to show Qing Lin, and said impatiently: "Look, it's ready."

Youruo's white and smooth jade neck has indeed recovered to its original state except for a small shallow scar.It seems that although those elixirs have no effect on You Ruo, they are still quite effective.

"Then you are not allowed to go." Qing Lin frowned and still disagreed.

"Why?" You Ruo became a little unhappy, she felt that Qinglin was taking care of too much.

Before Qing Lin could answer her question, Old Man Ginseng Essence and Sophora Tree Essence appeared.

"It has been found out. The villagers in the town were poisoned. It is not clear where the poison came from."

When You Ruo heard the word poisoning, she immediately thought of the Cai family, no wonder it was quite quiet these few days, she couldn't bear it anymore and said, "I'll force them to hand over the antidote."

"Stop." Qinglin gave an order, seeing Youruo stopped and said again: "They are waiting for us to throw ourselves into a trap."

"Then why don't we do anything? There will definitely be more villagers poisoned." You Ruo became a little irritable, and things seemed to be more complicated.

Qinglin thought for a while, and walked towards the old man Shen Jing, who didn't know what was said in his ear, the old man Shen Jing nodded repeatedly.

You Ruo was a little confused, and quietly stepped forward to eavesdrop, but was discovered by Qing Lin.

Seeing Qinglin looking towards him, You Ruo said with a guilty conscience, "I just want to know what the hell you guys are doing."

"You'll know later." Qinglin smiled lightly, especially thinking that Youruo's appearance at this time was the cutest, with her small mouth pouted and full of curiosity.

The old man Shen Jing smiled mysteriously, and then walked down the mountain with the pagoda tree spirit.

After a while, layers of phantom sounds came from deep in the mountains, like fog, like water, blurred and ethereal, as if they came from all directions, and they couldn't find the direction at all.

Listening carefully, it seemed to be shouting again: "I already know about your matter, please go back first, and within three days, I will help you solve this matter."

Although the mountain is relatively high, cheers can still be vaguely heard. It seems that the villagers really believe that there are gods on the Lingshan Mountain.

You Ruo looked at Qing Lin, confused, although the immediate matter was resolved, what should be done next?
Seeing You Ruo's eyes, Qing Lin didn't avoid her eyes, but looked at You Ruo with some discomfort.

"What are you looking at me for? What should I do next?" You Ruo lowered her head, seeming a little shy.

"You can do whatever you want, play however you like, and I'll just be with you."

You Ruo looked up, and felt that Qinglin's tone of voice was weird, but his expression was so serious, did he listen to himself in everything he meant?
"You mean you want me to make the decision?" You Ruo asked tentatively.

Qing Lin looked at You Ruo and pursed her lips and smiled inexplicably, and said softly under her suspicious eyes: "I can be your helper, right?"

"I'll keep my word, I'll change my clothes first." You Ruo excitedly walked towards her cave, because she was worried that Qinglin was teasing her, before entering the cave, she turned around and said, "Don't go back on your word."

The corners of Qing Lin's mouth curved a bit, and then he said helplessly, "Don't worry, I won't go back on my word."

Maybe it's because Qinglin's usual face is used to being cold, that Youruo thinks his smile is so pretty. She wonders why the world always uses the most beautiful words to describe women's smile and beauty?What should be used to describe the smile that suddenly opened in front of his eyes?

The brightest star.

In this sudden moment, what You Ruo thought of was the brightest star in the night sky.

Although Qinglin promised Youruo to listen to her in everything, Youruo always asked Qinglin for advice on everything, and getting along with her during this period seemed to make her a habit.

"What do we need to do first?"

You Ruo was dressed in men's clothes, handsome and unrestrained, she looked at Qinglin who was beside the jade tree facing the wind and asked proudly.

"People in the village are poisoned at the same time, some are mild and some are severe. The mild ones feel fatigued, the severe ones feel dizzy, and some old, weak, sick and disabled people are directly unconscious. There is only one answer." Qinglin analyzed the situation carefully, and then looked at Youruo.

"You mean the water is poisonous?" You Ruo touched Qing Lin and thought of the answer.

Qinglin smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to stroke Youruo's head, as if praising her for being smart.

You Ruo's body trembled and became tense, she felt that Qing Lin was not only strange but also very strange today, as if he suddenly changed into a different person.

"Let's go."

Before You Ruo could react, Qing Lin was already walking towards the inside of the town.

In the town, the villagers all had pale faces, as weak and weak as if they were starving or suffering from illness. There was a small medical clinic, and the team was lined up like a river. Looking at the doctor's expression, there was nothing he could do, because everyone received the same treatment. Such a problem, even the doctor himself is listless.

"Go back, I can't protect myself." The doctor, an old man in his sixties, waved helplessly at everyone, and was helped back to the house by his descendants and disciples.

You Ruo couldn't bear to see everyone's painful expressions, so she looked at Qing Lin and asked, "Can I tell them the truth?"

"I said you can do whatever you want." Qing Lin said with a smile.

Seeing that Qinglin really let himself make up his mind, You Ruo felt like he had lost his backbone, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing Youruo hesitated, Qinglin seemed to have read her thoughts, walked closer to the crowd and shouted: "Everyone listen to me, there is a problem with the well in the town, we suspect that someone has poisoned it, so everyone Just bear with it and try not to drink the water from the well."

"If we don't drink water, we will die of thirst."

"That's right. Besides, who are you, why do you say that the well water is poisonous?"

The villagers talked about it one after another.

Seeing the restlessness of the villagers, Qinglin said again: "We are sent by the old gods to help you. Although the well water in the town is temporarily unavailable for drinking, you can go to Cai's mansion to borrow water. I heard that Cai's mansion has a mouthful of it exclusively. Well, only the people in the Cai Mansion live in peace."

"Is it really sent by the old god?"

"We're saved."

"Let's listen to the fairy."

Qing Lin and You Ruo disappeared amidst the people's discussions.

The two hid in a remote corner, You Ruo looked at Qing Lin and praised: "I found that you are quite smart, are you trying to force people from the Cai Mansion to hand over the antidote?"

"How can I be smart? I did exactly what you wanted." Qing Lin stared at You Ruo, as if telling her that all the credit was hers.

You Ruo blushed, lowered her head slightly: "But I didn't say anything?"

"Even if you didn't say anything, your eyes have already told me everything." Qing Lin slowly raised his hand, and couldn't help but let him touch You Ruo's face for a moment.
