Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 178 Searching for someone

For a moment, everyone around looked in that direction.

This group of people was thought to be passing by, but they soon stopped at the entrance of the official road not far from the town, and then talked with the officials outside the town. However, because the distance was too far, their conversation could not be heard, and their purpose of coming here was unknown.

With so many people here, it doesn’t look like they are here to get a bargain.

Soon, more people came out of the village, all looking at the situation in the distance.

Si He looked at the group of people in the distance with her eyes slightly narrowed. If she remembered correctly, these people were from a caravan. The leader looked familiar. She had seen him in a black shop before. They both lived on the third floor, so she had some impression of him.

"Let's go." Ning Ji spoke, interrupting her gaze.

She withdrew her gaze and walked with him into the front yard. The old man beside her hurried to lead the way, "Please come in."

When the two men turned and walked towards the yard, the leader of the team suddenly looked over here.

Walking into the yard, Si He looked around. There were three rooms in total, two of which were occupied by other guests, leaving an empty main house. The house was actually quite good, not too shabby, and it was okay to live in. The only bad thing was that there were more strangers in the yard.

However, thinking that I won't be staying here for too long, it's okay to stay here for the time being.

After looking at the house, Si He had no objection, so Ning Ji gave the old man five taels of silver, and the old man happily accepted it.

Although the price is a bit high, judging from the current situation, it is estimated that the whole village is about the same.

After arranging accommodation, Ning Ji went to take the luggage out of the carriage.

As for Wei Xiaohu, he lived in a house in the next yard. It was also the old man's house, but it was much simpler, so he only received two taels of silver.

However, just as Ning Ji brought the bag into the house, an uninvited guest came outside.

The person who came was the leader of the team, Helian Jie.

"My name is Helian Jie, from the Beilian Caravan. Sorry to bother you."

Ning Ji stood in the courtyard and talked with him, while his men were waiting outside.

There were two other guests and the homeowner in the yard. They stood by and watched curiously, but Helian Jie didn't care.

Si He stood by the door, also curious about the man's purpose.

"What's your name, brother?"

"Ding Xi."

Helianjie nodded, his expression somewhat serious, "I wonder if Brother Ding is planning to enter the town?"

In fact, Helian Jie was also surprised to see these two people here again. He had just seen them from a distance and thought he was seeing things, but he still remembered the carriage, perhaps because he had left such a deep impression on him.

Moreover, thinking back on the woman's abilities, he could roughly guess why they were here.

So many Taoists from outside came to this town, and they said they were here to get rid of harm to the people, but he also knew the ins and outs of it. In addition to making some money, there were also some evil cultivators who came to collect evil spirits for other purposes.

I guess these two people also have this plan.

After all, when he was at the inn last year, he saw the woman at the door using evil spirits to attack people, so when he saw the two of them just now, he hurried over to ask.

Ning Ji said calmly: "We are just passing by."

Helian Jie frowned slightly when he heard this, but finally said frankly: "To be honest, I came here this time to find my little sister. A few days ago, she stayed in the town because she was having fun. It was not until something happened in the town and the people below could not find her that I hurried here."

"The situation in town is complicated right now. I know my little sister... might be in grave danger, but no matter what, since I'm here, I want to see her alive or dead."

"If Brother Ding comes into town, please help me find my little sister. I will definitely reward you handsomely."

After hearing what he said, Ning Ji's expression remained indifferent. "There are many capable people out there. Why bother looking for Ding?"

Helian Jie glanced at the masked girl standing not far away. He didn't know what Ding Xi's abilities were, but he had seen with his own eyes that this girl was not simple.

Ordinary people cannot possess such a strange ability to drive evil creatures, and the town is full of evil energy. Such people have more chances of success than ordinary people if they enter the town.

Of course, he also invited those Taoists outside. As long as they found his younger sister, he would reward them handsomely. It would always be a good idea to invite more people, as he had the money.

"I believe Brother Ding has extraordinary abilities. If you can help me find my little sister, I will reward you with one hundred taels of gold."

When they heard the reward of one hundred taels of gold, everyone in the yard was shocked, especially the owner of the house, old man Hong, whose mouth was so open in surprise that an egg could fit in it.

A reward of one hundred taels of gold was truly a huge fortune for these poor country people.

Even the two Taoist disciples felt that the reward was generous. They just had to go into the town to look for people or corpses, and as long as they brought them out, they would get one hundred taels of gold!

To be honest, they were all moved.

"Sir, can we also help find your sister?"

Helian Jie looked at the Taoist priest who was speaking, "Of course. Whoever finds my little sister and brings her out will be rewarded with one hundred taels of gold."

The man asked again, "Do you have a portrait of your sister? My master is coming into town today. I'll ask him then."

Helian Jie waved his hand, and his men beside him took out a few portraits and showed them to them.

Just now, he asked these people to stay here and listen to the conversation, naturally he also planned to ask them to help find someone.

The two young Taoists hurriedly looked at the portrait carefully. Even the owner of the house, Old Man Hong, came over. Although he didn't have the ability to enter the town, it didn't hurt to take a look.

Si He also came over and looked at the portrait in the painting. The portrait was pretty good, and all the physical characteristics were depicted. She was a pretty girl.

Ning Ji just glanced at him indifferently and did not comment on the matter of looking for someone.

"What a pity! If I had the ability, I would go into the town and find it for you right now. Alas~" Old man Hong looked at the portrait and sighed softly.

He felt sorry for the one hundred taels of gold, not the girl in the painting. If he could get the one hundred taels of gold, his whole family would not have to worry about their lives.

But the town is extremely dangerous. If you don’t have some skills, there’s no way out once you enter the town.

During this period, many people wanted to plunder property in the town. After all, everyone in the town was dead, and the things inside had become ownerless. Whoever took it would own it. The government also condoned such behavior. Of course, the prerequisite was that 30% of the things taken out had to be paid to the government.

Money can move people's hearts, and many people went there, but few could come out alive.

Not to mention the powerful evil spirits in the town, even the strong evil aura alone is unbearable for most people.

After coming out, some people were possessed by evil spirits, and some even went crazy.

At this time, there was some noise outside, as if something had happened.
