C1467 Groundbreaking

"Uncle, brother! What's wrong?" Staring at the faces of those on the ground, which were even whiter than paper, Lin Bai forcefully suppressed the laughter in his heart. He turned to the rest and smiled, "All of you, hurry up and get up. I'm not worthy of your courtesy!"

"Wood, are you a human or a ghost?" Hearing Lin Bai's words, the few of them felt as though they were facing a great enemy. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! They retreated a few steps back as they looked at Lin Bai with lingering fear in their hearts, unable to believe what he just said.

Earlier, when they had searched the surroundings, they hadn't even seen a shadow of Lin Bai. Now, however, he had appeared in front of them again. This scene was truly too strange, far too incomprehensible.

"What's wrong with all of you? What's wrong with you?" I have been standing here the entire time, and have not even taken a single step forward. Yet, I have only seen you all crying, howling and kowtowing to the air. What exactly is going on? " Lin Bai tried his best to suppress the laughter in his heart as he stood there in a daze, staring at the crowd with an expression of disbelief, as though he couldn't understand what they were saying.

"You've been standing here all this time?" Hearing Lin Bai's words, the old patriarch and the rest looked as if they had just woken up from a dream and slapped themselves in the face a few times. After feeling the bone-piercing pain, they looked at Lin Bai with tears in their eyes. No, it has offended the ancestors' gods! "

In the eyes of the Old Patriarch and his men, if Lin Bai stood there without moving, and saw them crying and kowtowing to the air, if that wasn't a ghost, then what was it?! Although only a short moment had passed from the start until now, it caused them to feel as though it had been a lifetime. It was as though they had walked through the gates of hell.

"Huh?" Lin Bai was even more shocked when he heard this. He looked around him and said in awe, "It seems that the ancestor gods are very dissatisfied with us, feeling that the ancestral tomb turning into a place for raising corpses is something so big. We did not see it, not even the ancestors could be at peace here, we feel that we should severely punish these juniors."

As soon as his words fell, the group of Patriarchs nodded repeatedly and let out a long sigh of relief. However, when they looked around, their eyes were still filled with fear, wishing that they could clean up this mess immediately.

"We need to hurry up and take care of this tomb garden. Otherwise, if the ancestor gods get angry again, not only us, the rest of the people in the stronghold will suffer a terrible fate." After looking around, Lin Bai acted as if he suddenly came to a realization. He then took a deep breath and solemnly warned the group of people in front of him.

After experiencing such an incident, they were now extremely confident in the matter of their ancestor's grave turning into a resting place for the dead. Especially since they heard from Lin Bai that if they did not deal with it quickly, the ghosts would still go to the stronghold and cause a ruckus.

I will eat you all to death with my bare hands! Old demoness, I want to see just what kind of evil intentions you have! Seeing how submissive the crowd was, Lin Bai swept his gaze over the ancestral hall as a cold smile appeared on his face.

Although the illusions that the Old Patriarch and his men had encountered had the effects of the Yin Qi from the corpses in the cemetery, most of them had been created by Lin Bai. As for the ghosts they saw, it was also because of the Corpse Yin Qi.

The best way to speak about ghosts and gods was to say 'if you believe, you don't have to believe', and to the people in the village, this was the truest portrayal of ghosts and deities in their hearts. After worshipping their ancestors and deities for generations after generations, their reverence towards their ancestors and deities was firmly engraved in the depths of their hearts. And because of this reverence, they naturally had incomparable faith in the saying of ghosts and deities.

Corpse Yin Qi was the same as Yin Sha, it could interfere with people's thoughts. Not to mention that Lin Bai used his methods to strengthen the Corpse Yin Qi. Under the interference of the Yin Corpse Qi, these people, who normally feared ghosts and gods, would naturally see illusions in their minds and cause them to think that they had seen a ghost.

For example, the old chief, because he was stingy and could not bear to use the money, he had caused his wife to die tragically at the hands of an ill man. Under the Yin Corpse Qi's interference, he would naturally have his wife's appearance in his mind, causing him to be deeply immersed in this pain that came from the bottom of his heart. Whether it was real or fake, he couldn't doubt.

As for the other strong men, although they hadn't done anything wicked like the old chief. However, living in the village, under this atmosphere where the culture of ghosts and gods flourished, they had also heard quite a lot about the legends of the ghosts and gods. Under the impact of the Corpse Yin Qi, they would naturally combine the strange images in their minds with the images in front of their eyes, turning them into the truest thoughts in their hearts.

As for the reason why they couldn't find Lin Bai just now, it was actually because Lin Bai had used a simple method. He used a small technique from his incomplete memories and used heaven and earth origin energy to conceal his body.

The Old Patriarch and his men were all ordinary humans, how could they possibly know the secret behind it? That was why they thought Lin Bai had been destroyed by the gods and ghosts. Moreover, under the powerful visual impact, the fear in their hearts was aroused.

The reason why he had used this move was not because of Lin Bai's ruthlessness, but because if the matter of Feng Shui turning the ancestral shrine into a place for raising corpses was not resolved, then the danger that the stronghold had to bear would increase. And once the Yin Corpses' aura reached its peak and erupted, the entire stronghold would probably become a dead city.

At that time, what awaited them was not just a mere illusion, but true death.

Without experiencing such an unforgettable fear, although the villagers held reverence for the ancestors' gods in their hearts, they would not do their best to help Lin Bai in this matter. Only by making them suffer a little, would they be able to wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly accomplish this task. Between death and illusion, which was scarier, which was milder, obviously.

Moreover, Lin Bai's methods were already extremely kind. The Yin Corpse Qi he had been controlling was actually at a weak point where it could only create illusions. If the Yin Corpse Qi had really rushed into the minds of these people, the illusions that he had created would probably cause their hearts to crack in fear and turn them into corpses.

"Old Patriarch, Uncle Ah Ge, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling in front of Brother Mu?" Just when everyone's hearts were still pounding in fear, Shitou's simple and honest voice suddenly rang out.

After this guy heard Lin Bai's words, he immediately grabbed two large sacks from the village and dug out all the ashes from the stove. It was all because he was as strong as an ox that he was able to carry these two sacks of ashes without panicking.

However, what he did not expect was that when he rushed into the cemetery, he found the Old Patriarch and his uncles in the village kneeling in front of Lin Bai, and when he thought about what happened yesterday, Stone felt his legs go weak and threw the ashes to the ground. He also knelt down with a thud, and looked at Lin Bai's back, trembling as he looked at the Old Patriarch and the rest of the people, and asked carefully, "Old Patriarch, Uncle, Brother Mo, didn't Brother Mu get possessed by the ancestor god again?"

"Which technique did you come for …" Hearing Rock's words, Lin Bai was speechless. It seemed like the commotion he made yesterday was a bit too much, even Rock, who knew about some of the details, had been fooled. He glared at Stone, then glanced at the sack on the ground and gasped, "Did you get all of this?"

"Yes, I got them all!" Upon hearing Lin Bai's voice, Shitou confirmed that the person standing in front of him was not his ancestor god, but his Brother Mu Mu. He smiled honestly and said somewhat fearfully, "Isn't that not enough? If it's not enough, I'll go out again and pack a few sacks to carry over. However, I'm afraid there isn't as much ash in the village.

As he spoke, Stone prepared to get up, but when he saw this kid's silly look, Lin Bai couldn't help but feel both angry and amused. He waved his hand and jokingly scolded, "This much is enough, there's no need to move anymore. You sure have some strength."

These ashes were all fine ashes made from burning grass and wood. They were probably even heavier than dirt. The two sacks combined weighed around 180 jins, but this stone was able to carry them all the way without a blush, which was really shocking.

"Of course, I have a sturdy body. It wouldn't be a problem even if I added two jute bags." Hearing Lin Bai's words of praise, Rock immediately slapped his chest and then flattered Lin Bai, "But with my strength, I can't even compare to Brother Mu. With just a finger, you can throw me into the northern mountains."

"I'm not that amazing. I'm exaggerating too much." Being flattered by Stone, Lin Bai felt a little at ease. Smiling, he said, "Looks like Soo Soo has gotten lucky this time around and picked up a treasure like you."

"Cough, cough …" The old chief and the group of strong men behind him were already in a very difficult situation after getting hit by the stone. Now that they heard the two endlessly boasting, they couldn't help but cough dryly a few times, then looked at Lin Bai and said, "Wood, the sun is out, are we going to start work and finish this as soon as possible?"

"For the safety of our village, the Old Patriarch's fists are pure and heartfelt, and the sun and moon are truly beautiful. I truly admire him." Lin Bai immediately withdrew the smile on his face when he heard this. He cupped his hands to the old Patriarch, who was emitting a constant fishy aura, then said with a half smile, "You're already old, so leave this matter to us. You'd better go back and have a good rest."

However, Lin Bai did not pay attention to him. He only looked at the ancestral hall with a smile that was not a smile and thought to himself, "Old demoness, this young master will start now. Let's see just what kind of schemes and tricks you have in mind!"
