After Yin Tianhua left, he didn't come back for a whole day.

Until the evening, Yin Tianhua came back carrying a half bottle of Erguotou.

"I thought you ran away?"

Yin Tianhua raised his eyebrows, rolled his eyes at me, and slumped down on the bench behind the counter.

"Didn't you agree to teach me the art of talismans? When should we start?"

Yin Tianhua took a sip of wine, smacked his lips and laughed.

"Don't worry, your uncle and I will teach you what I have said. I will definitely teach you.

However, according to the rules of the sect, if you are not a direct disciple to learn the art, you must first obtain a certificate."

Certificate of application?

Yin Tianhua is not lying on this point. In many professions, you need to obtain a certificate before learning skills.

"Fifty miles west of Yunzhou City, deep in the mountains, there is an abandoned ancient village called Huangshan Village.

During the war, the village was completely destroyed, and the mass graves behind the village were littered with withered graves. The accumulation of old corpses over the years has become a habit.

There is a high-quality luminous pearl in the mouth of the old corpse. If you bring the luminous pearl back before dawn, the application will be completed."

After saying that, Yin Tianhua leaned on the rocking chair and fell asleep.

I looked at the time and it was already past seven in the afternoon.

By the time I arrived at Huangshan Village, it was almost midnight, the time of day when the yin energy is at its strongest.

Damn it, this old guy just got stuck and came back.

I cursed secretly, took a few steps upstairs, picked up the iron box, and jumped out of the hospital.

Liu Jin is busy with the opening of the company these days, and I am too embarrassed to call him and ask him to see me off.

In the end, I had to ask Guo Sheng to take me there on a motorcycle, and hurried to Huangshan Village.

Now that the medical center is open, it is inevitable to run out. I thought that I would have to use the whole car later.

Huangshan Village is still seven or eight miles away from the highway, so I can only walk the rest of the way.

"Brother Thirteen, what are you doing here in such a cold weather?"

Guo Sheng asked curiously.

"Would you believe me when I said you were admiring the moon?"

I smiled bitterly, took out an amulet and handed it to Guo Sheng. There would be some lonely ghosts passing by in this wilderness.

"Brother Guo, just send it here. You can just wait outside."

Guo Sheng only felt that the amulet was bulging. When he opened it, he found that there was a bunch of big unity wrapped inside.

It's hard to let people go in vain this late at night, so it's natural to have some fun.

"Tsk tsk...this is more than my salary for several months."

"You deserve this, keep it!"

Guo Sheng could not help but smack his lips, but he was not polite to me.

After all, I just made a fortune from their tannery not long ago.

He negotiated the price, and Guo Sheng also knew that I was not short of money now.

"Sure, then I won't be polite."

Guo Sheng stayed outside waiting alone, while I strode towards the barren mountain village.

After walking for less than half an hour, a dilapidated ancient village finally appeared in my sight.

This barren mountain village is located in a mountain col, surrounded by mountains on three sides.

There is also a waterfall flowing down from the mountain stream behind the village, and the sound of rushing water can be heard from a long distance away.

The waterfalls merge into a small river that flows through the center of the village.

Just as Yin Tianhua said, this village has been abandoned for a long time.

Most of the houses have collapsed, leaving only fragments of ruins.

The sound of the howling mountain wind echoed among the mountain cols.

“With three mountains gathered together and a waterside pavilion in the middle, it stands to reason that this village can be considered a geomantic treasure.

How come they all died inexplicably?"

The grinding wheels at the entrance of the village are still very well preserved, making a squeaking sound when blown by the mountain wind.

As soon as I entered the village, there was a shrill ghostly cry all around me, and the roller started to rotate on its own.

In the wasteland behind the village, clusters of will-o'-the-wisps flickered faintly.

I slapped the iron box hard and pulled out the black knife.

The handprints changed slightly, and the three fires on the shoulders and between the eyebrows burned.

The restless sounds in the village immediately disappeared, and the rotating grinding stones stopped.

My yang energy is stronger than that of ordinary people, and coupled with the evil energy of the black sword, ordinary ghosts naturally dare not act recklessly.

Walking along the streets of the village, there is a large withered grave covered with grass behind the village.

Broken coffin linings and corpse mats were scattered on the ground, and bones and remains were everywhere.

Deep in a pile of rotten tombs, a vermilion coffin was inserted diagonally into the pit, making a creaking sound.

I frowned, raised my black knife and moved towards the coffin.

As if he heard my footsteps, the sounds in the coffin suddenly stopped.

"call!"

A night civet cat jumped out of the coffin and disappeared into the night.

I breathed a sigh of relief and looked into the coffin.

But the coffin was empty except for a bitten hare.

Well?

Could it be that the old corpse Yin Tianhua mentioned was not in the coffin?

But think about it, all the corpses and coffins in this mass grave are exposed in the wilderness.

Even if it has not been excavated over the years, it has probably been eaten away by wild beasts.

Naturally, Yin Tianhua asked me to come here to submit my certificate, so I thought he would not let me succeed so easily.

It’s just that there is only such a big place in Huangshan Village. If the corpse is not in the mass grave, where can it be?

I glanced around the barren mountain village, and the sound of rushing water filled my ears.

Behind this mass grave, waterfalls have been eroded all year round to form a large pool.

Under the moonlight, the waves sparkled.

"Could it be in the water?"

I frowned and looked toward the sparkling water.

This pool looks very deep, and you can't see why from the shore.

Suddenly my eyes fell on the grass next to the pool, and there was a green glass bottle lying in it.

There is also the Baixing Erguotou trademark on the bottle.

I was a little skeptical at first, but now I am almost certain that the old corpse is under the pool.

Plop!

I rushed out towards the pool with a sudden movement.

Even in midsummer, the water is still freezing cold.

Fortunately, the water in the pool is very clear and the view is not greatly affected.

Holding my breath, I glanced around the pool and finally found an upright wooden coffin near the mountain wall.

This wooden coffin has been soaked in water for many years, and has long since turned into submerged wood, with a black and red color.

The lid of the coffin had long been broken into pieces, and the entire coffin was stuck to the stone wall.

Inside the coffin stands a corpse with its head pulled up and its temples tied up, wearing a long blue brocade dress.

The surface of the corpse was covered with a layer of moss, and the body was entangled with green water plants.

"Finally found it."

I quickly swam to the coffin and bowed to the body.
Chapter completed!
