Chapter 1095 Catch Them
After Yan Li and his friends left the mayor's house, they found Old Man Cai in a dilapidated temple at the end of the street.
After Yan Li and the others entered the ruined temple, they saw Old Man Cai sitting there in a daze, like a puppet whose soul had been sucked out.
Yan Li and the others removed their invisibility and appeared in front of Mr. Cai.
"Girl, why haven't you left yet?" Seeing Yan Li and the others, Uncle Cai came back to his senses.
"Uncle Cai, we think this Fan Town is very strange and we want to investigate it thoroughly." Yan Li said directly.
"Girl, you'd better leave quickly. It's dangerous, very dangerous." Mr. Cai suddenly became excited when he heard this.
"Uncle Cai, we have the responsibility to investigate this matter thoroughly." Yan Li's face was serious.
"Who are you?" Mr. Cai was stunned when he heard this.
"This is the old world master, and he is the young man in white." Yan Li pointed at the old world master and the young man in white and spoke.
"Then you...are you the young lady who has just returned and has great powers that has been rumored everywhere recently?" Old Man Cai suddenly looked at Yan Li with tears in his eyes.
"Yes." Yan Li nodded.
She didn't expect that the news of her return would reach this remote town.
"Miss, please save us, save the people in our town. The mayor is not a human being, and there are several people in his family who are not human beings." After getting Yan Li's confirmation, Uncle Cai suddenly knelt down towards Yan Li.
The old world master looked at the young man in white and smiled helplessly.
Now in the eyes of everyone in the levitation world, Miss Li'er is much more reliable than them.
"Uncle Cai, please get up first and tell us what you know." Yan Li helped Uncle Cai up.
"I also discovered it by accident. The blessing lanterns made by the mayor can't bring blessings to everyone at all. They use the soul light emitted by everyone's soul to enhance their own strength." said Mr. Cai.
"What are those lanterns made of?" This is what Yan Li was most curious about.
Even I couldn't see the resurrected body in the lantern.
"The skins of those elderly people over 70 years old can be used to make lanterns, which can naturally cover their souls." said Mr. Cai.
Yan Li: ...
That’s not right either!
Even if the lanterns were made with the skins of those people, they could not resist their own prying eyes.
"Besides the skins of those people, is there anything else?" Yan Li continued to ask.
"The most important thing should be the production method of the blessing lanterns. However, no one has seen how the blessing lanterns are made in person." The mayor continued.
"I understand." Yan Li nodded.
"Miss, the mayor and his men are very evil, you have to be careful." Old Man Cai looked at Yan Li worriedly.
"Don't worry, we will be fine. But as for you, I'm afraid those people from the Cai family will kill you." Yan Li thought about it and directly set up an invisible barrier around Old Man Cai.
After Yan Li and the others learned some more about the situation from Mr. Cai, they left enough food for him and told him not to leave the invisible barrier until Yan Li and the others returned, and then they left in stealth.
Yan Li and the others quietly returned to their rooms in the inn to rest.
The next day.
Yan Li and the others came out of the room and just arrived at the lobby, they saw the shopkeeper looking at them, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
"Boss, what happened?" Yan Li looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Girl, you may not be able to leave Fan Town for the time being." The shopkeeper sighed.
"Why? Why can't I leave?" Yan Li looked surprised.
"The five-year ban in Fan Town has suddenly been advanced by one month. You can't leave for the time being." The shopkeeper said.
"What is the five-year ban?" Yan Li's eyes were full of curiosity.
"The five-year ban means that people are prohibited from entering or leaving Fan Town for one month every five years. The five-year ban was supposed to start next month, but I don't know what happened, it suddenly started earlier." The shopkeeper also looked depressed.
What worries him even more is that the five-year ban has been brought forward, and whether the age limit for making lanterns for people over 70 will also be brought forward.
If you move forward, you will be in danger.
After all, I am already eighteen years old!
Yan Li naturally knew why the mayor brought forward the five-year ban. It was naturally to keep herself and others.
"Boss, does that mean we'll be trapped here for a month?" Yan Li asked with some annoyance.
"Isn't it? It's just your bad luck that you are trapped after just one night." The shopkeeper sighed.
"Boss, this is good for you. We are trapped here, so your inn will have business, right?" Yan Li teased.
"Girl, I don't want you to be trapped just to make that money." The shopkeeper was speechless.
"I know, I was just kidding you. Boss, please prepare some breakfast for us." Yan Li and the others sat down at the table.
"Okay, girl, you are really optimistic." The shopkeeper said with a smile and prepared to leave.
He thought that Yan Li and the others would be eager to leave when they knew what the lanterns all over the street meant.
I didn’t expect them to be so calm when they found out they couldn’t leave for a month.
What the shopkeeper didn't know was that Yan Li and the others stayed behind specifically to eliminate evil.
Jingle Bell……
Yan Li and the others were having breakfast when the sound of a bell rang out.
"Girls, you guys eat first. This is the mayor's bell to call everyone to gather. I'm going to see what's going on." The shopkeeper said and left in a hurry.
Several waiters also put down their work and left.
Yan Li and the others didn't care and continued to eat the breakfast in front of them.
"Girls, hurry up, run." Soon the shopkeeper came back hurriedly.
"Boss, what happened?" Yan Li looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
"The mayor told everyone that if you use your souls to light up the lanterns of the entire town, the good fortune can last for a hundred years. Now everyone has gone crazy. You should run away." The shopkeeper looked anxious.
"It's okay, shopkeeper, find a safe place to hide first." Nangong Xi said to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper nodded and quickly found a safe place to hide.
He knew that Yan Li must have her reasons for saying that.
As soon as the shopkeeper hid himself, there was a burst of noise outside.
Yan Li sighed in her heart, thinking it was hard for the shopkeeper, who was 68 years old, to run ahead of everyone else to tell her the news.
Soon, the inn was surrounded by people from the entire town. Yan Li and the others walked out and saw the mayor and the three cloaked men in the lead. All of them were looking at them with greedy eyes.
"Mayor, I don't know what you mean?" asked the old world master.
"It's nothing special. It's just that your souls are so special that you can light up the blessing lanterns for our Fan Town." The mayor said.
"Catch them, catch them, catch them." The townspeople in the surrounding Fan Town shouted loudly.
