Chapter 111 Arrival at Huaishu Township
I saw Fatty Wang's expression change, and my heart sank. I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Wang Tong."
Wang Tong looked serious, and his tone became a little gloomy as he said, "Chen Yang, you dare to take this case, don't you know that something happened over there?"
"I know, but if I don't take this case, will the City God let me go?"
I answered Fatty Wang.
Fatty Wang was stunned for a few seconds after hearing what I said, and said, "You are right, but that place is quite tricky. Chen Yang, if you go there, you must be very careful and cautious."
I looked at Fatty Wang suspiciously and said, "Aren't you going with me?"
Fatty Wang laughed and said, "Chen Yang, I'm afraid this won't work today. I have something to deal with here. Let's contact each other by phone later."
The fat guy said this and disappeared from my sight without waiting for me to react.
When my uncle saw Fatty Wang disappear, he complained, "This fat guy is such a coward."
But I don’t think Fatty Wang is a coward. After all, he dares to go against the God of the Underworld and the God of the City. How can he be such a coward?
I guess he must have some difficulties.
But no matter whether Fatty Wang goes to Huaishu Township or not, I will definitely go there to take a look.
I guess that there is no land god in Huaishu Township now, and it is a no-man's land.
It feels similar to the place where I brought Xiaohua before. Xiaohua has been with me for almost ten days now. In five days, I will know who brought me to that cemetery.
There must be someone hiding behind this.
But I don’t know why they were willing to let Xiaohua follow me, and until now they have never come to find Xiaohua or ask about Xiaohua’s news.
And I feel that since Xiaohua is with me, nothing wrong has happened to me.
Everything feels normal, but I also feel like something is not normal.
After Fatty Wang left, we came back to our senses, prepared ourselves, and got some food.
During this time, I asked my uncle if he had found Taoist Priest Yang. My uncle quickly told me that he had not found him. He said Taoist Priest Yang might have gone somewhere else.
Now that Taoist Priest Yang is not around, I feel unsure about some things.
In fact, I am gradually realizing that although I don’t really believe in Taoist Yang, I actually believe in him in my heart.
At night, we headed towards Huaishu Township. No matter what the situation there was, we had to go and take a look first.
My cousin was very interested in this matter and drove me to the destination himself.
In the car, he said, "Xiaoyang, don't be afraid. No matter what happens, your uncle will definitely help you."
"Okay, I understand, uncle."
Even though he said this, I still felt a little unsure.
Fang Nianci was sitting in the back seat and didn't say a word at this time.
We were about thirty miles away from Huaishu Township, and it took about half an hour to drive there. In the car, my cousin asked me some questions.
I heard him keep whispering in my ear: "Xiaoyang, if anything happens later, your uncle will definitely protect you. Although my master is not here, with my skills, I will definitely have no problem dealing with ordinary little ghosts."
My cousin was quite confident when he said this.
I listened to him and believed in my heart that he could do it.
The car arrived at Huaishu Township and nothing happened along the way.
As soon as I got off the car, I saw my cousin taking out bags of things and walking towards the front. I looked at his figure and couldn't help but call him.
"Uncle, what did you bring?"
"Of course I brought some life-saving items, cinnabar, a compass, money for the dead, etc."
My cousin’s preparations are quite sufficient, but it’s better this way. At least if we encounter danger, we will be well prepared.
Huaishu Township, as the name suggests, has many locust trees, and they are very big. The locust trees are towering into the sky, and their huge crowns form a shaded area.
However, the locust tree itself is a rather gloomy thing, and tends to gather some unclean things. The night is as dark as ink, and it is pitch black all around.
When the wind blows, you can hear the rustling of trees.
At this moment, I couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and my heart tightened a little.
I looked around, but there was nothing.
My uncle then said to me, "Xiaoyang, don't be too nervous."
"good."
I looked at Fang Nianci and said to her, "Nianci, we need to find out whose souls were stolen. Please give me a list when the time comes."
"good."
Fang Nianci didn't delay too long and responded directly.
My destination is very clear, I will find the land temple in Huaishu Township first.
We walked over there, and just as we were about to get closer, my uncle quickly called out, "Wait, Xiaoyang."
My cousin's words immediately attracted my attention.
"What's wrong?"
"There's a figure over there." My cousin's voice became a little nervous. He took out a yellow talisman and walked towards the figure. I followed my cousin, ready to take action at any time .
My uncle was a carefree person. Before he even got close, he suddenly shouted, "Who the hell are you? How dare you cause trouble here?"
After he finished speaking, he was ready to throw the yellow talisman in his hand out.
But at this moment, a very panicked voice sounded: "Don't kill me, please, don't kill me."
This was undoubtedly a soul, but why was it so timid? Only when we got closer could we see the full appearance of the soul. We saw that it was wearing the official uniform of the underworld's ghost, but the uniform looked a little tattered.
And he looked obviously frightened at this moment, and was extremely panicked.
My cousin was about to take action, but I quickly stopped him and told him not to do it.
He stopped what he was doing to show that he listened to me.
We looked at each other, and my uncle said to me, "Xiaoyang, you must not be fooled by him, okay?"
I nodded and said I knew.
I turned my attention back to this soul, and I said, "Stand up and speak properly."
"I, I don't dare. Don't kill me. I didn't see anything."
Seeing him so cowardly, I was speechless. I said, "Don't be afraid. We are not bad people. I am the God of Fengcheng Township in the underworld. I am here to investigate a case. I will not kill you."
When he heard what I said, he turned his head and looked at me, still tentatively asking me: "Really, really?"
