Chapter 81 What a coincidence, I can also call people
"Fellow Daoist Lin?"
"Old Samoyev driver?"
At the high-speed railway station in Qu City, Lin Ye met with the old driver Samoyev at the place agreed upon. There was uncertainty in each other's eyes.
"It's really Fellow Daoist Lin. Fellow Daoist Lin is really a promising young man. My last name is Li, you can just call me Brother Li."
"Brother Li, what are you doing..."
Lin Ye looked at the taxi in front of him, a little confused. A taxi was used to pick him up?
"Haha, why am I called an old driver? Because I like driving. I usually drive a taxi when I have nothing to do. As a taxi driver, I can meet all kinds of people. We practitioners also need to experience the world, and there is no one who can meet more people than a taxi driver."
The corners of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. This hobby was really unique.
"Let's go, get in the car first."
Lin Ye got in the car, and Brother Li asked as he drove, "Fellow Daoist Lin, may I ask what are you good at?"
"Good at?"
Lin Ye hesitated for a moment, catching ghosts, catching monsters...
I have never caught a monster, but I have caught many ghosts.
"You're good at catching ghosts."
"Catching ghosts." Brother Li pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ghosts are different from monsters. Many spells that are effective against ghosts may not be effective against monsters. But this time I invited fellow Taoists from the Seven Killing Sect to come over. They specialize in catching monsters. Fellow Taoist Lin only needs to raid the formation."
Plunder the formation!
Lin Ye understood. It was because they didn't believe in his own ability, so they asked him to stand up for himself.
The taxi soon drove into a manor in the suburbs, which was the office of the Qu City Abnormal Identification Institute.
Looking at this huge manor, Lin Ye thought about what Zhong Shan told him about the office of the Raocheng Abnormal Identification Institute. There really is no comparison.
Lin Ye thought of some words he had heard from his elders before.
Raocheng and Qu City are separated by such a short distance, but there is a difference of millions in the fertility of babies just after they are born. Children in Qu City are born with millions more fertility than those in Raocheng.
This is the unfairness caused by the economic gap between provinces.
Off topic!
Lin Ye collected his thoughts and followed Brother Li into the manor and into the reception room.
"Big Head is back . This must be our new Taoist friend Lin Ye."
There were two middle-aged men and an old man sitting in the hall. The one who was talking was a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit. When Lin Ye heard this, he finally understood why this man from Qushi asked him to just call him Brother Li instead of his name. This name...
"Wang Tie, I've told you so many times, you can call me Li Daotou, Li Driver, but please don't call me Datou. Um, this little brother is Lin Daoyou who has just joined the group."
Li Datou introduced the three people present on behalf of Lin Ye.
Wang Tie, a strange man from Wencheng.
The other middle-aged man is called Zhao Yanshen, the one from the Seven Killing Sect mentioned by Li Datou, and he is the main supporter this time.
The old man’s name is Qu Yicang. The other three are from this province, and Lin Ye is the only one from another province.
A few people sat down, drank tea and chatted.
"Old Qu, I heard that you managed to get a quarter of the three grams of incense ash from Old Luo this time?"
"Yes, Lao Luo asked for a lot of money. For this moment of incense ash, I lost most of my wealth."
Qu Yicang felt very painful when he said this, but the expression on his face was very satisfied. A treasure like incense ash is worth exchanging for any amount of things.
"Only you, Old Qu, have this much wealth. Even if I give away all my wealth, I still can't exchange it for a gram of incense ash." Wang Tie looked envious.
"You are still young, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Maybe one day you will encounter a sealed realm. I am old and can't venture out. I take this little bit of incense ash for self-defense."
Lin Ye listened to the conversation between these people and looked at Old Qu pretending to be cool. He wanted to say, the incense ashes I wasted yesterday are more than the total wealth of all of you combined.
Fortunately, someone came in after a while.
"Counselors, the weasel is about to arrive."
Hearing this, Lin Ye and his companions stood up and walked towards a yard at the back of the manor, where there was a pale-faced man with several young men beside him who were searching around.
"You all should step back first."
Li Datou asked the people from the Abnormal Identification Institute to retreat, as it was useless to rely on them to deal with the weasel monster.
"Friend Zhao, this time I'm counting on you."
"Don't worry, with a few fellow Taoists here, the weasel will definitely agree to peace talks in the end."
Zhao Yanshen was confident, while Lin Ye walked up to the pale-faced man and asked uncertainly, "Are you Liu Shuming?"
"You are Lin Ye!"
Compared to Lin Ye's uncertainty, the man immediately called out Lin Ye's name.
There was no way, he was just an ordinary male student in college, while Lin Ye was the school's most handsome boy, the object of jealousy for many boys in the dormitory.
"It really is you."
Lin Ye didn't expect that the world is so small that he could meet his college classmates here.
To be honest, although we were classmates, university was different from high school. Apart from some required courses, everyone was in the same class, but the elective courses were different and many were taught in separate classes. In addition, Lin Ye did not like socializing, so after a few years, many of his classmates had only met once and were not familiar with each other.
Fortunately , since he started practicing, his memory has improved significantly, and he remembers Liu Shuming's appearance. However, the reason why he didn't dare to confirm it just now was because Liu Shuming now has a beard, greasy hair, and a pale face, which is very different from the clean and tidy appearance in college.
"Friend Lin, do you know each other?"
Seeing Lin Ye and Liu Shuming greeting each other, Li Datou and others looked over curiously.
"He was my college classmate. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."
Lin Ye spread his hands. Li Datou was also stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed: "That's really fate. Fortunately, Brother Lin Daoist you are here. Since you know Brother Lin Daoist, then Brother Lin Daoist, please persuade this little brother to relax and not worry. With us there, the weasel can't do anything to him."
"Lin Ye, are you the same as these people? Are you all the Qigong practitioners in the novels?"
Thanks to the popularity of online novels, young people today automatically understand the identities of Lin Ye and others without too much explanation, and can even fill in many of the details on their own.
"I understand. The spiritual energy is revived... You are protecting us ordinary people in secret."
Lin Ye: ...
"Tell me first, what exactly happened to the weasel? Did the weasel save your grandfather's life?"
"I only found out about this when I read the notes left by my grandfather. When he was still a child, he went up the mountain to pick bamboo shoots and was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake. It was the weasel who saved him. At that time, my grandfather said he wanted to repay the weasel. My grandfather told me in a dream a few days ago, and I remembered this incident. But he happened to drink too much that day, and then..."
Liu Shuming felt a little embarrassed to continue. Although Lin Ye knew what happened, he still felt helpless after hearing it again. Originally, this was a good thing for Liu Shuming.
The weasel will definitely give some rewards after being awarded the title, because Liu Shuming replied that he has to pay for his merits.
But because of the existence of his grandfather's karma, he has also settled this karma, and it is worthwhile to pay some merit.
Drinking is harmful.
"It's okay. We will negotiate with that weasel."
Lin Ye comforted Liu Shuming, and at the same time, a cold wind blew in the yard, and the next moment a strange laugh suddenly appeared. The moment the cold wind appeared, Lin Ye looked at a tree outside the courtyard wall on the left. On the tree, a weasel was staring at Liu Shuming with vicious eyes.
After hearing the strange laughter, Li Datou and the other two turned their eyes towards the direction of the big tree.
"Wong Tai Sin, the matter has been settled, why don't you sit down and talk?"
"Talk, what to talk about? My cultivation this year has been ruined in an instant. If I don't torture him to death by skinning him alive, I will never be able to relieve my hatred."
Lin Ye frowned when he heard this. It was just a weasel monster, yet it had the nerve to call itself an immortal. However, he was only here to scout the enemy, so he decided to wait and see what would happen.
"Huang Daxian, I am Zhao Yanshen from the Seven Killing Sect!"
Zhao Yanshen introduced himself, and Lin Ye listened with some confusion. Is this person very famous?
"What are the Seven Killing Sects and Eight Killing Sects? I am going to kill this kid today. Do you think you can stop me just by finding a few helpers?"
The weasel smiled grimly: "Not only you can ask for help, I can too, some friends please come out."
After the weasel said this, Li Datou and his companions' expressions changed. They didn't expect that the weasel would have the same idea as them.
On the left side of the courtyard wall, a snake's tail was wrapped around a tree, its body hanging in the air, slowly spitting out its tongue.
On the north wall of the courtyard, a female ghost in white appeared and floated there.
The next moment after the female ghost in white appeared, a ghost figure appeared with a horrible face. The most important thing was that there was a huge wound on its belly with its intestines exposed.
As soon as the intestine ghost appeared, the expressions of Li Datou and the other two instantly became solemn. This ghost had already condensed into a physical entity and its strength was comparable to that of an evil ghost.
"What should I do? My sect is not good at dealing with ghosts."
Zhao Yanshen lowered his voice and whispered. Li Datou looked at Lin Ye and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin is good at catching ghosts. Are you sure about these two ghosts?"
The moment the intestine ghost appeared, Lin Ye's mouth corners slightly raised. He listened to Li Datou's words and was about to answer, but the intestine ghost on the courtyard wall spoke first.
"Ahem, I just came here out of curiosity. I'm a good ghost and I won't attack anyone. It's nothing, I'm leaving now."
The Intestine Ghost was also confused. He didn't expect to meet this person here.
To be honest, he really just came to take a look. These days he has been chasing a female ghost, the one in white next to him. When he heard the female ghost say that a weasel invited her to the platform, he took the initiative to follow and take a look.
As for the platform, it would be great if you can get benefits without having to do anything.
But now he regretted it. If he had known this evil star was here, he would never have come even if he was beaten to death.
After the Intestine Ghost finished speaking, he disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving the people, ghosts, and monsters at the scene looking at each other in bewilderment.
