Silas Lin and the Lost City of Souls Chapter 4

Fortunately, Silas Lin didn't really need to go to the barren mountains and ridges to find water. Elsie Ling smiled and performed a magic spell. The next moment, a ball of white light hit him on the head. It was a commonly used cleaning spell.

Silas Lin's skin all over his body felt burning and tingling. After half a quarter of an hour, the spell stopped. He had been completely washed by the spiritual power and felt that his breathing was much lighter.

"Yeah," Elsie Ling said with a smile, "little beggar, you are quite handsome."

Fiona Ling and others all poked their heads to see what tricks he could do. After reading it, they all laughed: "This man is really strange. He is neither a fool nor an ugly man, but he has made himself look like a man in the mud." A rolling dog."

Silas Lin had difficulty breathing due to their gazes, and would rather remain dirty.

The eldest lady looked at this side coldly, and finally managed to snort with her nose, so as not to peel off Silas Lin's skin.

Elsie Ling asked: "What are the names of you three?"

Tobias Li said: "My name is Tobias Li, and my brother's name is Barnaby Li."

They laughed together, and even the eldest lady had a smile in her eyes, and asked him: "Why is there no Li Goose Fei?"

Barnaby Li was in awe: "The eldest lady has a clever plan. My sister's name is Barnaby Li!"

Elsie Ling looked at Silas Lin again, and Silas Lin said, "Silas Lin."

"Your name is quite interesting, but what does it mean?" Elsie Ling asked.

Silas Lin: "No."

Elsie Ling said angrily: "You are too boring."

Silas Lin didn't answer.

The name has a meaning, but I just don't want to say it because he is indeed an uninteresting person.

The eldest lady walked forward: "Let's go."

The girls trotted to follow, chirping and asking the eldest lady how she found them.

"You guys can be heard making such a fuss ten miles away," the eldest lady said.

The girls refused.

The eldest lady laughed softly and raised her hand. A butterfly appeared from the night and landed on Fiona Ling's shoulder.

Fiona Ling said: "It's the Phoenix butterfly! We also thought about using the Phoenix butterfly to find you, but it's too dark here. Even if the butterfly can find you, we can't find the butterfly."

"Listen." The eldest lady said, "If you can't even hear the fluttering of butterfly wings, wouldn't you have to sit back and wait for death if you encounter Rumengtang's Zi Zi Fei Hua hidden weapon?"

Fiona Ling said obediently: "Yes, we still need to practice more."

Silas Lin heard Li Yafei next to him take a breath. It was probably because he couldn't imagine that people could hear the sound of a butterfly flapping its wings.

If a person wants to hear the sound of a butterfly flapping its wings, he must have gone through an unusually long period of practice. This kind of patience and concentration alone are far beyond ordinary people.

And when a person has this kind of patience and determination, his martial arts and cultivation will definitely be outstanding.

This young lady who is ready to skin people whenever they meet her is indeed an extraordinary young lady.

Silas Lin was thinking when he suddenly heard Elsie Ling say: "Why did the eldest lady go away for so long before coming back? Is the Corpse King really so powerful?"

The eldest lady said: "It is easy to kill, but difficult to capture alive. The Corpse King has not lost his mind. After I catch him, I will ask him to tell the truth about the city. If he doesn't tell me, I will start from the shoulder blades and count every number. Break one of his bones."

Silas Lin: ...

He is a ruthless person.

The girls continued to ask: "Did he say that?"

"Said," the eldest lady stroked the scabbard with her right hand and said, "In the fourteenth year of Yongguang's reign, the people of Minzhou City supported General Dugu Cheng as king and gathered people to revolt. However, the uprising failed, and the dynasty sent troops to suppress it. Dugu Cheng's troops and the people of Minzhou City Officials, civilians, scholars, knights...all were killed!"

The girls said "ah".

The eldest lady continued: "The resentful spirits of the deceased turned into ghosts and guarded the city. Minzhou City is indeed a ghost town."

Elsie Ling's voice trembled slightly: "Then...should we report it to the village owner?"

The eldest lady said: "What the dynasty cannot resolve, the Villa cannot resolve."

"That's right..." Fiona Ling said from the side: "Then we still want to go?"

"I would like to pay a visit to General Dugu who gathered a crowd to revolt and ask some questions." The eldest lady said.

Naturally, everyone in Fenghuang Villa was the only one who followed the eldest lady's lead. Silas Lin was casual, but Tobias Li and Barnaby Li were very scared. They lowered their voices and asked Silas Lin, "What should we do?"

Silas Lin walked aside, distanced himself from him, and said expressionlessly: "Follow."

Barnaby Li said: "That's a ghost town."

Silas Lin: "Then you go back."

Barnaby Li: ...

Of course, he couldn't reply. Even if he didn't know what the young lady was planning, he had no choice but to follow her.

After hunting down living corpses, we finally arrived at the main gate of Minzhou City after about two hours.

Silas Lin's weak body was almost unable to hold on anymore. He had to take two steps to take a breath. It was all supported by his will, which made the eldest lady look at him a few more times.

The eldest lady raised her hand and knocked on the city gate. It was obvious that she used her spiritual power to knock on the heavy city gate that was more than ten feet high, making a dull thumping sound.

Then, the eldest lady said loudly: "Vivienne Ling from Liangzhou, please see General Dugu."

---It turns out that this person's name is Vivienne Ling, which is quite a beautiful name.

Not long after, a hoarse voice sounded from inside: "Minzhou City has been secluded from the outside world for a long time, and there are no outsiders. What is the matter with the girl?"

Vivienne Ling said: "Looking for someone."

"who?"

"As the saying goes, when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, when you marry a dog, follow the dog, and when you marry a ghost, you should naturally follow the ghost," Vivienne Ling said lightly, "My fiancée is from Minzhou City. The wedding is approaching, but there has been no news, so I have to come here." "Looking for your city."

"Girl, please wait a moment."

About half a quarter of an hour later, the voice sounded again: "The general said that if there is indeed such a ghost in the city, it is not a bad idea for the girl to marry into Minzhou City. May I ask the girl's husband's name and birthday."

Vivienne Ling: "I don't know."

Across the city wall, Silas Lin could feel the gatekeeper's speechlessness.

After a while, the gatekeeper continued: "Whatever you know, girl, just tell me."

Vivienne Ling: ...

He also paused for a while and then said: "Age sixteen or below, regardless of gender."

The gatekeeper asked in surprise: "Young girl, don't you even know whether you're male or female?"

Vivienne Ling said calmly: "Grudge ghosts sometimes can't tell the difference between men and women, they are just afraid that you will find someone wrong."

The gatekeeper ghost said: "To be honest with you, if your husband is under sixteen at this time, he would have been just a child ten years ago. His soul is too weak to become a ghost and he is no longer alive."

Vivienne Ling said: "Then find his master. He is an immortal king who calls himself Taoyuan Lord."

The gatekeeper ghost replied: "People who cultivate immortals often have cold temperaments and lack of resentment, so they cannot be ghosts. I feel sorry for you."

Barnaby Li said "Oh" and whispered to Tobias Li: "Even if this young lady is the most beautiful girl in the world, from today on she will become the most beautiful widow in the world. She is still the most beautiful girl in the world." But it doesn’t sound good after all.”

Vivienne Ling turned to look at him with a cold gaze, which frightened Barnaby Li into a shrinking quail again.

Vivienne Ling continued to say to the gatekeeper: "In that case, I will take my leave, but there is one more thing I want to convey to General Dugu."

Gatekeeper: "Please speak."

"The war between our dynasty and the Northern Xia Kingdom is raging now. If the general abandons the dark side and turns to the bright side, he may be able to resolve his past feud with the dynasty."

The gatekeeper laughed and said, "The dynasty has owed a lot to our Minzhou city. Unless the dynasty is changed, Minzhou will never help Nan Xia with its soldiers. Girl, please come back."

Vivienne Ling did not dwell on this topic and asked: "Really there are not those two people in the city?"

"Indeed not." The gatekeeper said sincerely.

The eldest lady is very annoyed, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that.

Ling Baojing, the youngest among the people in Phoenix Villa, cried from behind.

The eldest lady is indeed going to be a widow!

Seeing them walking back, Tobias Li said tremblingly: "Our village..."

Elsie Ling, the kindest person, said to Vivienne Ling: "Miss, let's take them out of the city."

Vivienne Ling was in a bad mood and had a bad temper. Her eyes walked around Silas Lin and the other three, and she said angrily: "I'll go to hell with them."

After a while, he added: "Send the villagers to Ning'an Mansion to settle down."

The girls responded and started to return. As they walked, they cursed in a low voice: "This person who suffered a thousand cuts is dead!"
