After watching Bao Zheng and others finish the case, I returned to my small courtyard and continued to live my quiet life. I still hoped in my heart that the next county magistrate from Yongping County would be a good official, so that the common people would Life could be better.

Just like this, a month has passed, and I feel that there have been great changes in my body and mind. Among other things, I have grown taller, I am 175, and my body has become stronger. Because I usually use money made from hair ball figurines, I have had a pretty good month this month and can practice quietly. In this era, stir-fry has begun, and I feel comfortable spending money on eating and drinking. I am used to lying down, and I don’t want to move anymore. Lying flat is the most comfortable.

The hair ball suddenly appeared from my arm and jumped on my belly. Master, master, can you be more urgent? You are so lazy that I can’t stand it anymore. We have to work hard to complete the task. Can you roll it up?.

I picked up the fur ball and held it in front of me. Maoqiu, don't be anxious, I didn't want to keep doing it forever, so let's go, tomorrow, tomorrow we will set off, go out for a walk, and discover new tasks. While Ning Xiucai and I were chatting, Maoqiu and I were saying in our minds that Master, this scholar, has a foreign soul. But because the time is short, Ning Xiucai’s soul is still in the dominant state now...

I said to Furball, let’s do this, let him sleep for a while first, and then eliminate the foreign soul. Maoqiu said okay. As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Xiucai tilted his head and fell asleep. The hair ball came out from my arm and jumped to Ning Xiucai. After a while, the blue light flashed and the hair ball came back. When it got to my arm, the owner figured it out. The strength of this soul was too low, and the repair value only increased a little.

Because the soul strength is low, it does not have much impact on Ning Xiucai. He only needs to have a good sleep. Straighten Ning Xiucai's crooked body and let him have a good sleep. At the same time, I also copied Ning Xiucai's memory when I came into contact with his body. This Ning Xiucai is a little dazed. He is really good at learning. He was selected as a scholar three years ago and is considered the number one in the village. However, his family's conditions are average and his parents have to work hard to support him in his studies..

While reading Ning Xiucai's memory, he drove the car and continued walking, seeing that it was getting dark. He couldn't travel all night in a place with nowhere to go. People could bear it, and the horses were tired. Just then, I saw from a distance what seemed to be a thatched shed on the mountain road, and I didn't know if anyone lived there.

He stopped the carriage and shook Ning Xiucai awake. He had been sleeping all the way and it was time to wake up. Ning Xiucai woke up in a daze, opened his eyes, and was still stunned. Seeing his confused look, I smiled, Brother Ning, you're awake. Only then did Ning Xiucai react and scratch his head in embarrassment, why did I fall asleep? I said, maybe you were tired from the journey and fell asleep without saying a few words after getting in the car. I saw that you were sleeping soundly so I didn't wake you up. It's not getting dark yet. It seems like we have to find a place to spend the night, and the horse needs to take a rest. I saw a thatched shed in front of the forest. Let's go in and see if anyone lives in it. We can also spend the night there. He drove the carriage towards the path and soon arrived in front of the small hay shed. When I looked at it from a distance, I thought it was a small thatched hut. When I got closer, I discovered that there was a row of three adobe houses behind the small thatched hut. The small thatched hut in front should be a place for cooking. There is a chest-high wooden fence surrounding the house. The small wooden door in front is very crude and looks like it will fall if pushed harder....

I got off the carriage and walked to the fence and looked inside. It was really a place where someone lived. An old woman with gray hair was sitting on a small bench and lighting a fire. She seemed to be cooking. I shouted loudly, aunt, aunt. When the old woman turned around and saw someone, she asked,"Is there something wrong in this life?" I said, aunt, we are passing by. Seeing that it is getting dark, we want to stay at your place for the night. Don't worry, aunt, we are going to Yingtian Mansion to take the provincial examination. Ning Xiucai glanced at me. I smiled at him and said nothing else. Ning Xiucai seemed to understand what I meant, so he didn't ask anything.

The old woman thought for a while, stood up slowly, walked to the door, opened it, and said to us, I am the only old woman living here alone. It is not convenient to have guests. Seeing as you are scholars, there are no people nearby. There are other people, and it’s not convenient to travel at night. Okay, come in, just stay the night, he said, leading us into the house.

The old woman took us to the room on the far left, which is reserved for my son and daughter-in-law. They are doing business in Yingtian Mansion. They will come back to stay for a few days during the New Year and the holidays. You can stay here tonight. I'm cooking. If you don't mind, let's have dinner here. Excuse me, thank you very much. We both quickly thanked you.

Brother Ning, please rest first while I unload the carriage and feed the horses. Ning Xiucai said,"Xiao Bei, let's go together." It's okay, I'll be fine by myself, just take a rest first. After saying that, I walked outside, unloaded the horse from the carriage, and tied it in the woods outside the yard. It could just eat the grass on its own. I borrowed the old woman’s bucket to fetch water and fed it. Horse.

While I was working, Maoqiu said something was wrong with the old lady in the yard, and the smell on her body was so strange. Is it an alien spirit, I asked. Maoqiu said, it's not like that, it shouldn't be a foreign soul, but she has a lot of resentment on her body. It feels like she has been stained with the resentment of the deceased after killing many people.

There are still a few resentful spirits around her that have not dissipated. The master can absorb these resentful spirits. Although the repair value is a little low, mosquitoes are still flesh no matter how small they are. It is better than nothing, right?

These resentful spirits should be the people she killed. Only people who died unnaturally would have such great resentment that would not dissipate for a long time, Maoqiu explained to me. It seems that this old witch has killed a lot of people, so we need to be more careful.
