Chapter 147 Baishi Town

 Li Ling rode his horse and headed north alone.

The academies of the Dayong Dynasty taught the Six Arts of the Gentleman, and even inferior academies occasionally had horse riding lessons. Therefore, only a small number of students did not have the conditions or could not master horse riding, and most students could ride horses alone.

For horseback riding.

Li Ling is no problem.

Not to mention that his own performance in horse riding lessons is extremely good. If he reveals a little bit of the aura of a powerful warrior, he can easily suppress most horses and make the fierce horses become obedient.

Except Qinghai City.

Yu Yingluo still didn’t appear.

This gave Li Ling a headache.

He wanted to ask Yu Yingluo about the details of this new mission, and also to find out the identities of Xu Gou and Hai Zhu, as well as the blank paper effect obtained from them.

The white paper is not a magic object, so Li Ling cannot obtain relevant information by touching it.

All the way north.

Three days later, we entered Jizhou territory.

Two more days passed.

On the road.

The sky was dark, and the surrounding scenery was gray, as if it had lost its color and was drawn like an ink painting.

Li Ling glanced at the sky and then looked ahead.

There was a distance from the next city, and I couldn't reach it before the city was closed. Then I recalled the surrounding geographical information.

Within three miles, there is a town called Baishi Town.

Baishi Town belongs to Anshi County.

The city Li Ling needs to go to is Anshi County. At the current speed, he cannot reach Anshi County before the city gate closes, so he has to retreat to Baishi Town.

Of course.

Li Ling has no problem sleeping in the countryside.

Who wants to live in the suburbs if there is a place to live?

When Li Ling arrived at Baishi Town, it happened to be Xu Shi.

Unlike the quiet town you imagined, Baishi Town is actually very lively. Each torch illuminates half of Baishi Town.

As the firelight flickered, shadows were reflected, sometimes lengthening, sometimes shortening, which was very cheerful.

Li Ling arrived at the town with his horse, and immediately attracted the attention of many people, who all looked at Li Ling with a bit of vigilance.

Under the dark night.

Outsiders are arriving.

How to prevent the villagers of Baishi Town from paying attention.

A man with a strong build and rough hands walked up, stared at Li Ling and asked, "Who are you?"

Li Ling smiled slightly: "Ni Wancai, a student of Xiashi Academy, originally wanted to go to Anshi City. Seeing that it was getting late, I wanted to stay one night in Baishi Town. I will leave immediately early tomorrow morning."

Xia Shi Academy, an academy in Jizhou.

It cannot be compared with the four major academies, but it has a certain reputation in the Jizhou area.

"A student from Xiashi Academy?"

The muscular man looked a little better when he heard Li Ling's identity: "Wait a minute, we need to discuss this with the mayor."

"Okay."

Li Ling nodded.

The muscular man turned and left.

After a while.

He walked back with a middle-aged man with slightly white hair.

This man with slightly white hair has an ordinary appearance, heavy bags under his eyes, and some wrinkles on his face. He looks a little weak.

"Students from Xiashi Academy?"

The white-haired man looked Li Ling up and down. With his gentle and elegant demeanor, he really looked like a scholar.

Li Ling smiled slightly: "Yes, student Ni Wancai."

"Xiaomin Baishi Town Mayor Chen Yiye."

The man with white hair said: "It is indeed getting late and the road is not safe, so you can stay here. Ah Wei, please let this young man go to your house to rest."

"Okay."

Aweidao, a burly man.

"Master Ni, come with me."

"Thank you, mayor."

Li Ling paid tribute to Chen Yiye and then left with Ah Wei.

Shortly after the two left.

The two of them came behind the mayor Chen Yiye and looked in the direction Li Ling left.

"Two adults."

Chen Yiye said worriedly: "Is it really good to let this person stay in Baishi Town? He is a student of Xiashi Academy. If something goes wrong here, it will definitely alarm Xiashi Academy."

The tall man with a shallow scar at the corner of his eye snorted coldly: "Expelling him will only arouse his suspicion. What's more, he is only a student of Xiashi Academy."

"If it's one of the four major academies, you may need to be more cautious. If it's a Xiashi Academy, don't worry."

"Besides, who saw him when he came here?"

Chen Yiye still looked worried.

The Dayong Dynasty was in its most powerful period, attaching great importance to culture and improving the status of scholars. Even if they were just scholars at Xiashi Academy, their status should not be underestimated.

The short man with narrow eyes said: "After tomorrow, the entire Baishi Town will disappear, and no one will find it."

"Even if it is really discovered, you have left Baishi Town and remain anonymous, so there is nothing to worry about."

"I hope so."

Chen Yiye murmured softly.

Zhao Jun, who had scars, also asked: "Have you prepared all the things I asked you to prepare?"

Chen Yiye nodded and said: "Well, everything is ready, exactly. Please don't worry, sir."

Wang Hu, who had narrow eyes, smiled slightly: "Mayor Chen, once something goes wrong, your wish will not be fulfilled."

Chen Yiye gritted his teeth and said: "I understand."

……

Li Ling walked with Ah Wei, observing the situation in Baishi Town.

"What is Baishi Town going to do?"

Awei respected the scholar very much and replied: "In order to worship the gods, I worship the Lord Stone God."

"Lord Stone God?"

"Lord Stone God is the god of Baishi Town, and he blesses Baishi Town with good weather and good harvests. The ancestors of Baishi Town established the town here under the guidance of Lord Stone God."

Lord Stone God? It should be a spiritual creature.

After entering Baishi Town, Li Ling sensed the strange aura of Ruoyouruowu, which should have come from the so-called Lord Stone God.

However, this Lord Stone God doesn’t know if there is any problem.

Something went wrong with the Bull Riding Immortal and he died in the hands of Li Ling.

If Master Shi Shen also has a problem, Li Ling will have to take action.

If Lord Shi Shen is fine, then report it to the Tianxing Department, who will make a decision.

Why does Dayong Kyushu still allow sacrifices even though it knows that there are supernatural creatures?

On the one hand, the special nature of sacrifices has existed since ancient times and cannot be cut off or contained.

On the one hand, the gods sacrificed may not become spiritual monsters, and even if they become spiritual monsters, they will not cause disasters in a short period of time.

Therefore, the Dayong royal family did not ban sacrificial activities, but only ordered the Tianxing Division to inspect the sacrificial gods everywhere. If there is a threat, they will be eliminated directly.

Awei continued: "The mayor has made arrangements with someone. Tomorrow is a very solemn day, a day to communicate with Lord Stone God. Therefore, everyone is preparing well today and waiting until tomorrow for the sacrifice."

"Oh."

Li Ling responded casually, not caring at all.
