Chapter 23 – The Secret of the Dead Corner Village

Chapter 23 The Secret of the Dead Corner Village

Qiao Yuan’s gaze swept back and forth between Li Xiaoling and the other man, basically acknowledging their authenticity.

In the distance.

Li Xiaoling’s face was covered in dust. The wounds on their bodies showed they had not had a good time these two days. Li Xiaoling’s wounds were the most serious. It seemed that she had resisted before being pressed and rubbed on the ground.

Qiao Yuan nodded, and the two ran over like frightened birds, afraid they would be caught again.

“Wait!” Qiao Yuan’s cold voice rang out.

Li Xiaoling and Wang Jing looked at each other and immediately stopped in their tracks. They subconsciously raised their hands above their heads.

“We, really, didn’t do it!”

The two of them glanced at the fake Wang Jing’s body on the ground and said in unison. “???”

“I’m not talking about you guys,” Qiao Yuan replied. “I’m talking about those two.”

Li Xiaoling was speechless. Wang Jing was speechless.

The two of them finally felt at ease. Qiao Yuan’s eyes were not red from the killing.

The two villagers turned around and looked at Qiao Yuan in confusion. “Did they hit you?” Qiao Yuan asked. The two villagers shook their heads. Li Xiaoling and the other person didn’t hit them. It was them who hit the two people.

IIII

“I’m asking you!”

Qiao Yuan turned his head and stared at Li Xiaoling and Wang Jing.

Li Xiaoling and Wang Jing looked at each other again and nodded like chicks pecking at rice.

“Yes, yes, yes, they hit me with whips!”

“I don’t obey, they hit me. I talk, they hit me. I run away, they hit me. I resist, they hit me. I surrender, they hit me again. I say your name, they fight even more fiercely…”

“Look here!”

Li Xiaoling said as she prepared to lift up her skirt.

III1

“Very good…” Qiao Yuan replied.

“???י

Li Xiaoling, who was lifting her skirt, froze.

“Now, you two go up and give them a slap!”

Qiao Yuan’s voice was heard again.

The scholar spirit was speechless.

The two villagers who were being escorted were speechless.

Li Xiaoling put down her dress and Wang Jing’s dress.

Looking at Qiao Yuan’s calm eyes, she felt a surge of confidence!

Then, with her head held high and chest out, she assumed the posture of a victor as she pulled Wang Jing toward the two villagers.

She pretended to roll up her non-existent sleeves and rubbed her hands. Then, she picked up some sharp stones from the ground and held them between her fingers.

Seeing this, the two villagers turned pale and subconsciously retreated.

“Stop!”

Qiao Yuan’s chiding was heard.

Li Xiaoling’s body froze.

“I’m not talking about you, continue!” Qiao Yuan said.

Li Xiaoling started to move.

Pa

The sound of something breaking through the air rang out. Li Xiaoling used all her strength!

Pau

Another slap resounded.

A villager’s neck twisted 360 degrees, and he fell to the ground with an unwilling expression. As for the other villager, a shallow handprint appeared on his face.

When the surviving villagers saw this, they looked at Wang Jing with gratitude.

Pa~

Li Xiaoling gave him a slap.

The villager’s head rolled to the ground.

When the rest of the villagers saw this, they swallowed their saliva and silently took a few steps back.

The red spirit touched her own face, and her face twitched. She too took two steps back.

“Are you satisfied?” Qiao Yuan asked.

Li Xiaoling looked at her hand and threw away the stone that was stained with blood. She revealed a satisfied expression and said, “It’s alright. It’s just that the skin on my face is a little stiff. I feel like a dead person. It’s disgusting.”

Wang Jing looked at her numb palm and fell into deep thought.

The three of them left the dead corner village.

In the dead corner village.

Everything returned to normal.

“Why did you let them go?”

The red spirit walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the scholar.

It was the spirit that called herself Nie Xiaoqian!

The scholar spirit did not answer. He turned to look at the red spirit.

“What did you say to him last night?” “It’s just a story,” the spirit said, shaking her head.

And then, the spirit smiled.

“He thought he’d won, but he didn’t know that everything was going according to my

plan!”

“I’ve already told him the secret of this place!”

When the spirit said this, the red spirit looked at him in disbelief.

“Are you crazy? You told him how important this place is? Aren’t you afraid that the human will know?”

‘You must be crazy!’

Didn’t they do all this to keep it confidential? Now, it actually took the initiative to tell him. What did it want?

The spirit looked at the hoe in his hand, and slowly, it became a book.

“Xiaoqian, we don’t have to learn anything else about humans, but we still have to read this book.”

“I want to tell that human how precious this place is. Only then will he keep it a secret for me and not tell anyone.”

“What book?” Nie Xiaoqian asked curiously.

The scholar spirit replied, “Weakness of Human Nature.”

Outside Four-Corner Village.

The asphalt road reappeared, and the three of them finally returned to the real world.

“Shush, don’t talk, just keep walking.”

Qiao Yuan reminded the two of them. Only when they were far away from Four-Corner Village did he stop and look at the two of them.

The two of them were not used to it and immediately looked like they were going to listen.

“You two, why didn’t you just stay at home? What are you doing here?”

This wasn’t an alarmist talk. This time, if it wasn’t for the other party’s fear of him, he was afraid that the team would really be wiped out.

Wang Jing lowered her head and played with her fingers, pretending to be mute.

Li Xiaoling pursed her lips and told him what happened that night.

That night, he had noticed something was wrong, but he was too weak to do so. He had fallen into a trap. If the two spirits had not held back, he and Wang Jing would have been dead.

The moment it was subdued, it had affected its phone and sent Qiao Yuan that message. Qiao Yuan was their only hope because it had seen Qiao Yuan in his golden form.

Perhaps feeling guilty, Li Xiaoling continued, “Oh right, I also heard a secret. Do you want to know what kind of place that death horn village is?!”

“I don’t want to know,” Qiao Yuan replied.

Li Xiaoling was speechless.

That was the truth. He wasn’t interested in the village, but he was sure that the next time he came here, he would show Nie Xiaoqian and the two spirits called Ning Caichen what cruelty was.

Before that, he just needed to develop in silence. Anyway, with this realm tablet, he could enter at any time.

Li Xiaoling was at a loss for words. She swallowed the words she was about to say. Her stomach suddenly bulged slightly, as if she was three months pregnant.

An hour later.

Five or six o’clock in the afternoon, outside the bus station.

The number of tourists did not decrease, because the four wonders were more beautiful and charming at night. Furthermore, the hotel industry and homestay in four-corner villages were also very developed.

For a time, people passed through the city, and it was bustling and noisy.

There were people constantly raising signs to pull people in.

Qiao Yuan turned down a couple suite that a bald man with a hat was trying to sell for 199 Yuan.

Before the bald man left, he gave Qiao Yuan and the other two a meaningful look. He said reluctantly, “Little brother, this is a special offer room. The three of you can sleep in it. You can even roll around together.”

Fortunately, he could still make it in time for the last bus to the city.

Qiao Yuan quickly bought a ticket.

At the boarding gate,

Wang Jing looked at the ticket in her hand and then at the two people in front of her. After a moment of hesitation, she asked, “Aren’t you two coming with me?”

“I still have something to do.”

Qiao Yuan gave a reasonable explanation.

Wang Jing’s gaze shifted to Li Xiaoling.

“Xiaoling, what about you? You’ll accompany me, right?”

Li Xiaoling glanced at Qiao Yuan. Just as she was about to speak, Qiao Yuan stopped her. “It’s carsickness. She can’t sit on this fully enclosed bus.”

Li Xiaoling, who wanted to answer by herself, swallowed the words in her mouth, and her stomach grew bigger.

A strange look flashed across Wang Jing’s eyes. She turned around and got on the bus. Just as she was about to step out with her right foot, she gritted her teeth and retracted her foot.

“Actually, I get carsick too. Xiaoling knows that.”

As she spoke, Wang Jing looked at Li Xiaoling, who was standing next to Qiao Yuan.

Best friends’ hearts were connected, so she understood!

Li Xiaoling was speechless.

“Carsick stickers… Carsick stickers, ten yuan each. Is there anything you need? the second one is half price… Buy three, get one free…”

In the distance, an enthusiastic middle-aged woman carrying a small bag walked over.

When they saw Qiao Yuan and the other two, they immediately smelled a business opportunity.

“Young man, does your girlfriend have motion sickness? I have a carsick sticker here, it’s definitely effective!”

The middle-aged woman quickly took out a box of motion sickness stickers.

Li Xiaoling was speechless.

Qiao Yuan was speechless.

Wang Jing looked at the middle-aged woman with resentment. She pursed her lips and said, “Actually, I’m already resistant to motion sickness stickers. They’re useless against me. You can ask Xiaoling. She knows.”

A gaze filled with complicated emotions came over again.

Li Xiaoling was speechless.

The middle-aged woman was stunned.

“Little girl, I have some motion sickness medicine here. It’s an upgraded version of the motion sickness sticker. Take one and it’ll stop!”

The middle-aged woman enthusiastically took out a box of motion sickness medicine from her bag.

Wang Jing did not give up.”Actually, I’m allergic to motion sickness medicine. Xiaoling knows. You can ask her!”

Wang Jing looked at the two of them again.

Li Xiaoling was speechless.

Hiss

The middle-aged woman pouted and scratched her head. She turned around and took out a bottle from her bag.

“Young lady, I also have a carsick spray here. It’s the latest product that meets more than a dozen national standards. Its effect is more than a dozen times better than traditional carsick drugs. Once sprayed on the nose, it will bring you back to life!”

Wang Jing was speechless.

“I lost my wallet. You can ask Xiaoling. She…” Wang Jing refused to give up and gritted her teeth.

Before Wang Jing could finish her sentence, Li Xiaoling had already taken out her wallet. What could she do?

Qiao Yuan had made it clear that he wanted to send Wang Jing away, so she could only silently agree.

The middle-aged woman was quick to react. She immediately grabbed the money with a smile and gave Li Xiaoling a bottle of spray, a box of motion sickness medicine, and a pack of motion sickness stickers.

On the bus.

Wang Jing pressed her round face against the window and stared at the two people in the distance. Li Xiaoling and Qiao Yuan walked side by side and shoulder to shoulder. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, their backs were as long as an elder’s.

“Now you can tell me, what is this dead corner village?” Qiao Yuan asked when they arrived at the highway fence and saw that no one was around.

There were some things that did not need to involve an ordinary person like Wang Jing.

Li Xiaoling’s eyes widened.

“I thought you weren’t curious?”

Qiao Yuan was speechless.

“Li Xiaoling, is your skin itching again?”

“We’re in the middle of nowhere. Do you think I won’t touch you?”

Li Xiaoling’s body trembled as she recalled the scene from that night. She almost collapsed to the ground and quickly told Qiao Yuan about the dead corner village.

The dead angle village was not an illusion at all. It was real, and there was a secret hidden within it.

It was an extremely important secret for awakened ones!

It was a place where the powers of both spirits and awakeners could be increased. Li Xiaoling spat out all the information she had heard.

Ten minutes later.

After Li Xiaoling finished speaking, the anger in her stomach was finally released. She looked at Qiao Yuan, who was deep in thought.

This information was extremely important to an awakened like him.

This was without a doubt!

After that, she revealed a proud expression that was waiting to be praised.

‘Look, I, li Xiaoling, am not an incompetent person. Even though I was trapped in the enemy’s camp in the first round, I still managed to find a lot of information.’

After Qiao Yuan digested the information, he looked at Li Xiaoling, who was standing with her head held high and her hands on her hips, and shone the flashlight on her.

“Don’t get involved, it’s eye-piercing!”

Li Xiaoling blocked the light with her hand.
