Chapter 1

July 14th, Tanjia Town, Western Hunan.

  "The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful about the fire~"

  On the dark street, two watchmen, one old and one young, walked slowly and leisurely through the wet street.

  "In ancient times, beating the watch was also called a watch. The watch was a sounding instrument made of wood, also called a bangzi."

  "As the saying goes, when the wooden bangs ring, evil spirits retreat."

  Wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat, Yun Yi followed the old watchman with a lantern in his hand.

  He is not a native of this world, but a traveler who was reborn in this world.

  This is the Republic of China period, and Yun Yi judged that it should belong to a parallel world.

  In this chaotic era, he was an orphan since he was a child.

  They eat Baijia food and wear Baijia clothes.

  I thought it was just an ordinary world, but because he had pure Yang in his horoscope and too much Yang energy in his body, he would always encounter evil spirits from time to time.

  When the watchman, Master Zhou, discovered him, he said that he was born to be a watchman.

  "Yun Yi, do you want me to be your master?"

  Master Zhou knocked on the wooden watch a few times, which meant that the third watch was about to pass.

  The most gloomy time of the day is here.

  Master Zhou shouted at the top of his lungs: "When the bamboo clapper rings, the gods return to their places~"

  Bang——

  Yun Yi then struck the gong.

  He also shouted at the top of his lungs: "When the gong rings, you all will return to your grave!"

  "Master Zhou, after midnight, it will be July 15th."

  Yun Yi did not directly answer Master Zhou's words.

  To be honest, when he came to this world where ghosts were rampant, he didn't want to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.

  "Yes." Master Zhou nodded solemnly: "But our watchers are usually pure yang, immune to all evils."

  "You are very talented and are the perfect candidate to inherit our mantle as a watchman."

  "How about it? Think about it?"

  Hearing Master Zhou's proposal to accept a disciple again, Yun Yi knew that he could not avoid it.

  "Master Zhou, I appreciate your kindness. If I inherit your mantle, the Yun family will have no descendants."

  In order to retain the pure yang energy in their body, every generation of the watchman family will choose not to get married for the rest of their lives.

  [Successfully refused to become a disciple, you opened the big gift package. ]

  [Heaven level reward: supreme understanding]

  [Yellow Level Rewards: Copper Coin Armor, Evil Suppressing Talisman, and Thousand-Year Willow Branches Picked During the Qingming Festival. ]

  This voice?

  Is this my time travel golden finger?

  "Why did you come?!" He whispered through gritted teeth.

  The resentment that Yun Yi had been holding back for seventeen years exploded at this moment.

  "Yun Yi, when you go back soon, don't sleep in the ruined temple. Come and stay over at our Guandi Temple."

  Master Zhou's idea is very simple. This boy is a rare pure yang.

  He is a smart person and can make sense at a glance.

  Once you get to know the background of a watchman, you will naturally be willing to become a disciple.

  "It's better not to."

  "Guandi Temple is where your watchers live. After tonight, I will no longer watch."

  "Leaving so soon?" Master Zhou sighed helplessly.

  He knew that Yun Yizhi was not in Tanjia Town and would leave sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

  Because tonight is the Ghost Festival of the Ghost Festival.

  Hundreds of ghosts roam the streets at night.

  If Yun Yi didn't come, I'm afraid no one else would dare to follow him in the ghost watch.

  [Rewards have been distributed. ]

  [I will give you another space compression cloth bag. ]

  In the blink of an eye, Yun Yi had an extra backpack on his body.

  In an instant, he felt that his brain's thinking speed suddenly accelerated.

  And it's getting faster and faster.

  Regarding the rewards received this time and the characteristics of the system.

  It almost took just a moment of thought to fully understand.

  "Is this the power of understanding!"

  But then, there was a strong feeling of hunger in my stomach.

  as a modern person.

  Yun Yi once heard a saying that only 10% of the human brain is developed.

  If further developed.

  Because of the rapid running state, a lot of energy will be consumed.

  He had no idea how much his brain was developed.

  The strong hunger in my belly is real.

  His attention was quickly attracted by the candlelight of the wine shop in front.

  "On this day and at this time, there is still a wine shop open?"

  "Something's not right." Master Zhou immediately felt something was wrong.

  Subconsciously, he reached into his bag.

  Because both of them were wearing raincoats.

  Master Zhou didn't notice at all that there was something extra on Yun Yi's body.

  His attention was focused on the drinking passers-by.

  The passerby suddenly became ferocious-looking after drinking alcohol, and his face turned pale in an instant.

  "problem occurs!"

  Master Zhou stared at the passerby's feet and saw that his heels could not touch the ground.

  I knew this person must have been hit by something evil.

  He immediately caught up with the passerby.

  Grab the passerby's right hand and pinch his middle finger.

  "Detect ghost veins?"

  Yun Yi saw Master Zhou's movements and immediately guessed that he was touching the ghost pulse.

  The middle finger has three sections.

  The root of the finger is the god, the middle section is the immortal, and the last section is the ghost.

  "The fingertips are jumping, and the undead are haunting!"

  Hearing Master Zhou's words, Yun Yi stopped immediately.

  He suddenly remembered a saying.

  If the willow leaves are stained with dew from the Qingming Festival and applied to the eyes, ghosts can be seen.

  The thousand-year-old willow branches I got were picked during the Qingming Festival.

  "You'll know if it works or not."

  He opened the cloth bag, and it was pitch black inside.

  I reached into the bag and found that the space inside was surprisingly large.

  This is definitely not a space that a cloth bag can have.

  Soon, he touched the wet willow branches.

  "Wet and dewy."

  Pick a leaf casually.

  For some reason he suddenly changed his approach.

  Apply dew to your eyes in a way that you can't even understand.

  This method applies evenly without irritating your eyes at all.

  [You relied on your own wisdom to understand the Taoist method of opening the heavenly eye. ]

  He immediately looked at the passers-by.

  But I saw a white figure on the passerby.

  A woman with a strange expression was staring at him and laughing.

  Hee hee hee~

  Master Zhou cast a spell to force the female ghost out of passers-by.

  But his mana status.

  The female ghost immediately ran away from his eyes.

  "Yun Yi, get out of the way!"

  Master Zhou, who was watching the female ghost closely, found that she was heading towards Yun Yi.

  Apparently she was eyeing his Yang Qi.
