Jinye Town is an ancient town located in the north of Qicheng City. The population of the town is not very large, and many young people are attracted by the prosperity outside and leave their hometowns.

"Where are we going first?" Caicai asked, holding the candy man that Lin Ye bought for her in Qicheng while eating.

Lin Ye saw the sugar stains on her mouth and wiped them off for her with the back of his hand. And said, "Let's take a look around first." ”

The whole Golden Leaf Town has been washed by the rain for several days, and the bluestone road has become extremely slippery, although Mo Caicai is not proficient in their martial arts here, but he is still leisurely on this pediatric road, and the other two are extremely elegant. Lin Ye's pure natural and lofty temperament should be a 1 in 10,000 chance to be seen in this rural place, Mo Caicai thought that it would attract many onlookers, after all, the three of them are strangers, in her impression, the old man and the old lady don't like to join in the fun, why are the people in this town so calm?

The town is not big, and it didn't take long to finish shopping, and the three of them found an herbal tea shop in the center of the town and sat down. The shopkeeper of the herbal tea shop was very surprised when he saw a guest coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "What do the three guests drink?"

Lin Ye glanced at the tea list hanging on the wall of the tea shop, "Three cups of herbal tea are enough." ”

"Okay, three of you, please wait a minute. ”

The shopkeeper wiped the table neatly, put the teacup on the table, took a pot of herbal tea at the counter and brought it to the three of them, with a flattering smile on his face, and said politely: "Three of you, please use it slowly." ”

"Thank you to the owner. Mo Caicai smiled politely at the shopkeeper and nodded.

"The girl is polite. Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly shook his hand, "I haven't been here for several years, I'm not afraid of the girl's jokes, like a few of them are so graceful, it's the first time I've seen the villain in my life." ”

"Boss, we are also passing by here, see that this town is very distinctive, so stay to see, you said that there have been no strangers here for several years? But this traffic extends in all directions, how can no outsiders have come here? I'm afraid that the boss doesn't pick out the good ones to tell us, so that we can tip you more?" Mo Caicai is a real person, just look around and see the problem, the corner of Lin Ye's mouth showed a smile slightly.

"Oh yo, girl, you have wronged the villain, the villain has been opening a shop here for decades, and the villagers who come and go know that the villain is an honest and loyal person, and he can't say those words. The shopkeeper picked up the rag in his hand, and wiped it off his forehead, regardless of whether he had wiped the table just now or not. He didn't know why he didn't do it properly, so that the fairy-like girl was so suspicious. Without waiting for him to think about it again, Mo Caicai asked again: "Shopkeeper, don't be nervous, we are really passing by, but we are just curious about where the villagers have gone, although it is raining outside, it makes no sense that there is no one on the road, you have to tell us well, is Jinye Town haunted?"

"Girl, don't talk nonsense!"

The shopkeeper didn't know where he got the courage to grab the rag in his hand and plug it on Caicai's mouth, Caicai's reaction was faster than him, and he leaned back gently, and the shopkeeper pounced. But he wasn't annoyed, he just whispered anxiously: "Girl, you really can't talk nonsense, our Golden Leaf Town is blessed by the gods, and those messy ghosts can't get close to us." ”

These words aroused Lin Ye's interest, and he spoke, "Who is the god?"

"This, this villain doesn't know. ”

It was clear that the shopkeeper knew about it, but was reluctant to reveal it to them. Antar's eyes were cold, and he put the sword in his hand on the table with a snap. Not to mention that the shopkeeper was immediately excited, Mo Caicai was also taken aback, and glanced at the sword on the table with disgust, "What a broken thing, scared this girl to death." ’

Caicai generally doesn't like to use force to solve problems, she took out the two silver coins in the bag and put them on the table, "Shopkeeper, can you see this?"

"Girl, you, this, this is like..."Drink tea and give so much money, I'm afraid it's not that this girl has a bad brain... The shopkeeper wanted to take it, but he didn't dare to reach for it.

"My father-in-law has money, so don't be polite, take it, and we should also buy a story to hear. Mo Caicai forced the silver coins on the table into the shopkeeper's hand.

(Xiang Gong?Lin Ye was noncommittal.) ）

"The villain sees that you are also extremely kind people, so let's tell you a few about our Golden Leaf Town. The shopkeeper took the silver in his bosom, took a bench and sat down beside them, and began to ramble on about the strange things that had happened in the town.

It is said that this town was originally a prosperous place, especially the Lang family in the center of the town, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes were invited to the house for two days for two days. The old man of the Lang family, Shangjia, was born, married a lady, but he was a person in the rivers and lakes, the old man loved his wife, and he obeyed his words in big and small things. Mrs. Lang is not a delicate girl, she was born in the rivers and lakes, so she naturally has one or two friends in the rivers and lakes. Friends in the rivers and lakes all said that Mrs. Lang married a good old man, and some even stayed at Lang's house for a long time. Master Lang naturally won't drive people away, and Mrs. Lang is unhappy, she is now the head of the Lang family, and everything should be for the sake of her family. Mrs. Lang issued an eviction order, and stated that her husband's family was not charitable, and that he was a guest when he came, and that he would entertain him for a day or two, and that he planned to stay for a long time, and that there was an inn in the town, so he could live there. Everyone in the rivers and lakes loves face, and they all moved away after hearing it. I don't know where the news came out, the roots of the oldest gold-leaf elm tree in the town began to wither, and the villagers said that it was unlucky.

The youngest son of the Lang family also returned from a study tour at this time and brought back his senior sister. Xiao Lang Gongzi is very obsessed with his senior sister, which is the same as his father, who is infatuated. The senior sister is really beautiful and moving, and Mrs. Lang does not agree with her son's vision, maybe women are the most accurate to look at women. But my son likes it, no matter what Mrs. Ren says, she has to marry her sister, and if she doesn't agree, she will run away from home and never come back. This made Mrs. Lang so anxious that she had no choice but to agree to this family business.

The two held a wedding on an auspicious day, although Mrs. Lang was not happy, but also invited friends from the rivers and lakes to come to watch the ceremony, and Mr. Lang set up 100 tables of flowing water banquet to invite the villagers to witness the happiness of his son.

After the wedding banquet of Xiao Lang Gongzi, the master of the young couple suddenly came to visit, and told Mrs. Lang whether she could use it in the house for half a year, she was really distressed, and she also wanted to teach Xiao Lang Gongzi her skills. Mrs. Lang was very grateful, and specially arranged for the master to live in the upper room. The Lang family also has great respect for this master of the Wind Immortal Dao Bone. I don't know that on a dark and windy night, the master and the bride were touched by Mrs. Lang during their tryst, which made Mrs. Lang angry, and the Lang Mansion was not thin on these two. When Xiao Lang Gongzi learned about it, he vomited blood from his mouth and fainted on the spot. Master Lang couldn't stand this stimulation, and almost fainted, but fortunately, Mrs. Lang made the first move, locked the two of them in the backyard firewood room first, and ordered the servants at home to strictly prohibit external propaganda. But good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. There will always be a few long-tongued women who don't have long eyes, so that everyone in the town knows a rough idea.

Although the master and apprentice who were locked up in the firewood room became prisoners, they were not idle, thinking about how to deal with the Lang family all day long. I didn't think that the servants of the Lang family would come to bring them food on this day, and they were stunned by their poisoning, so they took the opportunity to slip out. The two of them are not stupid, they know that they can't go far when they go out, they have some skills on their own, and they are not as unprepared as last time, but this time they used **, and the Lang family was stunned. You say that you steal people's money, why do you want to kill people? After these two evildoers finished taking the valuable things, they actually set a fire to burn the Lang family to the ground. The fire burned for two days in a row, and the people in the town dared to put out the fire, so they carried Xiao Lang Gongzi out of the broken tiles, but the Lang family and his wife were buried in the fire.

After Xiao Lang Gongzi was rescued, the left half of his face was destroyed, and his whole temperament changed greatly, and he usually only looked at the burned Lang Mansion blankly. Until his mother's friends heard about it and came to visit him and took him away. Not long after that, I heard Wang Xiaodan in the village say that he saw a person who looked like Lang Gongzi at the intersection of the town, and everyone didn't believe it, and no one would come back to this sad place. But strange things happened one after another, the young people in the town did not know what the devil was, and they did not want to work in the fields every day, and ran in groups to the back mountain all day long, and the old people in the family asked, they only said that they were instructed by the masters, and the fruits of the golden leaf elm on the back mountain could be sold for a lot of money. After they plucked all the golden elms on the mountain, they didn't even leave any leaves, and cut them all down. Since they have gained a lot, they can naturally make a lot of money, they go to find that for that for the master, who knows that the master continued, he is just a middleman, if every time he comes here to collect the fruit, he also needs the villagers to pay a certain price difference, it is better to go with him and sell it directly to the family, which will not save the villagers a lot of money. The villagers are very simple, and they suddenly feel that the master is the master, and the consciousness is much higher than that of the little people. After the big guy went home to say goodbye to his family, he happily packed his bags and followed the master away.

How many days does it take to sell something? At that time, the young people who had gone away had not been back for nearly half a year, and the family members found out that something was wrong, so they would not even come back to see the situation at home. The people in the town felt that something was wrong, so they sent the only young herbal tea shop shopkeeper left in the town to report to the city. The yamen in the city sent two or three officials to follow the shopkeeper back to the town to check the situation, and several people went to the back mountain together, and found that the golden elm had withered and failed, and there was no longer the golden scene of the year, which was embarrassing. The official inquired about the old man in the family of the young man who had run away at that time, but the answer he got was the same, all of them said that he could make a lot of money by following the master. As for who the master is, what he looks like, and what characteristics he has, everyone says that they don't know, the master wears a felt hat, he doesn't see the true face clearly, and his behavior is quite mysterious. In this way, the official took a formality and hastily came to the conclusion that it was just that young people liked the outside world of flowers and did not want to return to their hometown.

Of course, the old men of the town did not believe this bluffing, and one of them suggested that a monk with advanced Taoism should come and see it, and the monk had put a lot of charms on the town after being invited, and said that the young men were all bewitched by ghosts, and that they would return in a few years.

When the shopkeeper said this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the teacup and drank it all. He licked his lips, feeling a little unsatisfied, no one had come here to hear him say these words in years.

"Shopkeeper, has anyone ever come back?" Mo Caicai tilted his head and asked, "Did the monks you invited work?"

"I haven't been back yet. But the gentleman said that he would have to wait a few years and he would definitely come back. ”

"Do you believe this?" Caicai began to 'admire' the intelligence of the villagers.

"Girl, don't talk nonsense!" the shopkeeper couldn't stand the provocation of others, and he patted his chest as if he were the monk, "how can what the gentleman said be false!"

Caicai just wanted to refute, but Lin Ye stopped her, glanced at her, and asked her to stop stimulating the shopkeeper.

"It's getting late, let's go back first. Lin Ye stood up and gave the shopkeeper two more coins, "The shopkeeper has worked hard, this is tea money." ”

The shopkeeper accepted the money with a smile, "The three of you go slowly, if you come to Jinye Town again, you can come directly to the villain, and the villain will take you a few times around." ”

Mo Caicai nodded in response, and wanted to say a few more words, but Lin Ye was stunned that he didn't give her a chance, so he took her hand and left, and Xinsu immediately followed. The three of them hurried back to the inn before the night was dark. Although the things in Jinye Town have nothing to do with the epidemic, there are strange things, it is common to lose one, and it is better to see the young people in the town who are lost than to see it. The more Lin Ye thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to go back and discuss it with Lin Zhi again.
