Crazy involution in male-oriented novels, my senior brother has set his sights on me

Although the village still looked normal, there was one place where resentment was spreading outwards.

And all these grievances eventually flowed into the river and became one with the water.

Lin Hao and Lin Jin walked closer to observe the place where the resentment was leaked.

Lin Jinxing carefully studied the formation around the leaked resentment and said in amazement: "What a profound formation! If the resentment had not been leaked here, there would be no flaws at all."

Lin Hao put his hand into the resentment and felt the strong resentment and anger in it.

"Brother, how do we deal with these grievances?"

Lin Jinxing lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "It would be difficult to dispel such a strong resentment if we just stand here. We need to go deep into the resentment and find the root cause to solve it."

Lin Hao said: "Then let's go in and take a look at the specific situation."

Lin Hao and Lin Jinxing were covered with a protective shield made of spiritual energy, and they entered the village through the hole where the resentment leaked.

After the two entered, even though their bodies were covered with spiritual energy, the strong resentment still made them feel a chill.

Lin Hao felt the surroundings and said, "Brother, I can't feel any spiritual energy here."

Lin Jinxing affirmed: "This is a place where resentment gathers, so it's normal that there is no spiritual energy. But you have to be careful later, and try not to waste spiritual energy from now on."

Lin Hao nodded to show that he understood.

The two continued to walk inside, and after they were completely inside, they saw a world that was completely different from the outside.

After the two confirmed that there was no danger, they withdrew the spiritual passport.

Unlike the desolate and deserted outside, Lin Hao looked at the villagers who were exuding resentment and felt that this scene was very strange.

He understood that these villagers were probably the souls of those who had died tragically and were haunted by resentment and unable to reincarnate, so they were trapped here.

The surroundings are covered by black air, making it difficult to tell whether it is day or night.

The villagers seemed to be unaware of anything. Those who needed to farm continued to farm, and those who needed to cook continued to cook.

Everyone lives the same life as the villagers outside, but there are some differences. Those people have dull eyes and just repeat the same action.

Lin Hao approached one of them and saw that he still had no reaction.

Lin Hao looked at the other person's gray face. His eyes seemed unfocused and his dilated pupils didn't know what he was looking at.

Lin Hao stepped back and said, "Brother, have you noticed? Although these villagers' eyes are not focused, they are looking in the same direction."

Lin Jinxing also followed the villagers' gaze and said, "It's the entrance of the village. They should be waiting for someone to turn on the switch."

Just as he finished speaking, a little boy who looked about seven or eight years old came from outside the village with his head lowered.

After entering the village, the scattered pupils of all the villagers gradually condensed. Except for their still gray faces, they looked no different from ordinary villagers.

Lin Hao frowned. He could see that the child in front of him was different from these villagers.

The villagers are all souls that are unable to reincarnate because of resentment, and this child is just an illusion made up of resentment.

"Brother, this child should be the center of the resentment."

Lin Jinxing nodded, "That's right, but let's wait and see. The person who could set up such a sophisticated formation must be extraordinary. Let's see if we can find some clues through these soul cycles reproducing the scenes of their previous lives."

Lin Hao also agreed with his senior brother's words and quietly observed everything that happened next.

When the villagers saw the little boy, they came forward to greet him.

"Zi Jin is back?"

"Xiao Jin, are you back? I'll go to my aunt's house to make noodles. I'll bring some over to you when it's ready."

"Xiao Jin, Grandpa just caught two fish in the river. I'll bring you one when it's cooked. It's perfect to eat with the noodles."

The little boy was Zhou Zijin. He responded to the villagers' kindness with a forced smile.

From this Lin Hao can also see that Zhou Zijin is very popular among the villagers.

It seems that the problem is indeed with him.

Zhou Zijin thanked the villagers for their kindness one by one and was about to leave, but at this moment he glanced in the direction of Lin Hao.

A puzzled look appeared in his eyes, and then he looked around.

Seeing that the other villagers were not surprised, he put aside his doubts and turned away.

After turning around, he returned to his previous dejected look.

Lin Hao was slightly stunned. He asked, "Brother, did that kid see us just now?"

Lin Jinxing looked in the direction Zhou Zijin left, his face solemn. "I don't know, let's follow him to confirm."

Lin Hao nodded and was about to follow, but he heard several women whispering together.

Lin Hao took advantage of the fact that the villagers couldn't see him and sat opposite them and listened openly.

"Zijin has been missing for several days."

"Yes, the fact that he was not selected for the disciple-recruiting conference was a big blow to him. Let's send some food to Zijin's family later!"

A woman who looked difficult to get along with snorted coldly and said, "What's there to comfort us with? How many of us mortal children can actually be selected?"

Another woman retorted, "Aunt Wang, you can't say that. Zijin lost his parents when he was young, and he grew up eating our food. If you don't feel sorry for him, why don't you allow us to feel sorry for him?"

"Yes, when the old Taoist priest who passed by us said that our Zijin has a talent for cultivation."

"Alas... At the beginning, we believed the Taoist priest's words, and the village raised some money to send Zijin to the Immortal Mountain to participate in the disciple-recruiting conference. After he failed and came back, Zijin became like this. I don't know what happened at the disciple-recruiting conference."

"If I had known this would happen, I would not have sent Zijin to the disciple recruitment meeting. Now that the child is like this, how can we explain to his parents?"

"That's right. Our village was attacked by a wild bear. Thanks to Zijin's father, the only hunter in the village, he helped us to escape. Otherwise, we wouldn't be alive now!"

"Zijin was a very miserable child. His mother passed away just one year later. He was just a tiny little kid at the time and looked very pitiful."

Lin Hao and Lin Jinxing heard the conversation between the few people and roughly figured out the situation.

Lin Hao said: "It seems that the main problem lies with the child named Zijin. But why are all people souls, but he is not?"

Lin Jinxing said: "Let's go check out Zijin."

Lin Hao nodded, and the two of them searched along the direction Zhou Zijin had just gone.

We found Zhou Zijin's house and heard a child sobbing softly from inside the house.

At this time, Aunt Wang, who had a bad tone before, tiptoed towards Zhou Zijin's house. After hearing the child crying, she showed a look of pity.

She wanted to knock on the door, but then she remembered that Zi Jin was a strong-willed child who didn't like his weak side to be seen, so she put the plate in her hand on the windowsill, turned around and left quietly.
