Chapter 796: Chapter 794: Turning into a Ghost to Seek Revenge?_1

“Brother Lan, you can take them to pick medicinal plants. Don’t worry about the horses; they won’t run away with Yin’er around.”

“Okay.”

Mo Canglan happily took the basket and unfastened the reins; he and a few other young men went into the forest, and their figures soon disappeared.

“Sigh.”

Lin Qingluo looked at the energetic young men and sighed leisurely. He resumed his previous train of thought, concentrating intently, and soon became lost in thought again.

“Master, the birds say that the epidemic in Jizhou City has an odd origin. The first patient was a servant from the City Lord’s Mansion.”

The birds were well-informed and brought back the news in the evening. Little Kingfisher promptly relayed it to Lin Qingluo without delay.

“The infected individuals suffer from constant high fever, seem delirious, and succumb within days, their bodies rotting away.”

“Moreover, the birds have heard some rumors.”

Little Kingfisher was diligent in his duties, not missing even the smallest clues.

“The Jizhou Magistrate has committed numerous crimes and persecuted the loyal and upright. The epidemic is said to have been brought about by the vengeful spirits of those he has wronged, cursing the people of Jizhou.”

“What about the Jizhou Magistrate? Has he been infected?”

Lin Qingluo’s brows furrowed as he listened, a cold murderous intent briefly flashing in his eyes.

“He hasn’t.”

Little Kingfisher snorted disdainfully: “When the epidemic started spreading, he left the City Lord’s Mansion with his guards and took refuge in a country house, where he’s been hiding ever since. He hasn’t shown any concern for the infected people.”

“Scoundrel.”

Lin Qingluo rarely grew angry: “Such a heartless person doesn’t deserve to live.”

Little Kingfisher shared the indignation: “When we pass by Jizhou City on this journey, we’ll handle that Jizhou Magistrate and avenge Lady Wei.”

“This matter probably has nothing to do with vengeful ghosts.”

Lin Qingluo had a commanding presence: “Have the birds keep an eye on the country house. If someone is indeed seeking revenge, they won’t rest until the perpetrator is dead. I’ll also write to Shu Min to learn more about the past.”

“Master, do you suspect Lady Wei’s old acquaintance is using this as an opportunity to avenge her?”

Little Kingfisher was attuned to his master’s intentions and quickly understood his deeper meaning.

“It’s just a guess.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyebrows knit together: “Lady Wei, a weak woman with a young daughter, endured six years of humiliation and hardships in the coal mine. Perhaps someone was secretly helping her.”

“It’s possible. I’ll have the birds investigate and dig up all the filthy secrets of the coal mine.”

Little Kingfisher was filled with resentment, so much so that he wished he could burn the coal mine down in one fell swoop.

“Yes, go check it out.”

Lin Qingluo nodded: “I’ll write to Shu Min and inform her of what’s happening in Jizhou City.”

With the Psychic Fruit Stuffed Buns in front of them, the group of young men were excited and tireless despite the mountainous terrain.

The sky darkened, and following Little Kingfisher’s guidance, they eventually left the deep mountain valley and caught up with Lin Qingluo.

“Guys, set up the tents and build a cooking station.”

On this hot summer night, the mountain breeze felt refreshingly cool. Lin Jinlong decided to camp in the forest and had the young men set up tents and cook dinner, keeping them busy and cheerful.

“Master, we had a great harvest today.”

Mo Canglan brought the basket to Lin Qingluo with an excited look on his face, counting the medicinal plants they had found.

“With the Old Ginseng around, finding medicinal plants is a breeze.”

The Ginseng Spirit couldn’t stand being cramped in the basket anymore, so it pushed the lid open, climbed out with its hands and feet, and didn’t forget to boast about itself.
