Chapter 98: Witness Killed
When I saw this dark shadow appear, I reacted quickly.
I have never seen Lu Gao, but I vaguely felt that the person on the roof was Lu Gao.
I reminded Fatty Wang, and he opened his eyes and looked towards the roof.
He took a look and said, "Yes, that's Lu Gao."
Fatty Wang quickly turned his attention to Lu Gao. He shouted, "Lu Gao, come down quickly. We are here to seek justice for you. The person next to me is a high-ranking official from the underworld..."
Fatty Wang raised his hand and pointed at me, introducing me like this.
I think he is talking nonsense. How did I become a high-ranking official in the underworld?
Now I am just a small criminal messenger in the underworld.
When Lu Gao heard what Fatty Wang said, he stood on the roof and said to us, "Is he really a high-ranking official in the underworld?"
At this moment, I also saw Lu Gao's appearance clearly. He was about 40 years old, with an old face and a short stature, but from , I could see that he was still somewhat timid at this moment.
In fact, when he asked me if I was a senior executive in the underworld, I felt nervous and had no confidence at all.
Fatty Wang didn't think so, and quickly answered, "Yes , he is a high-ranking official in the underworld. As long as you follow us to the underworld this time, we will definitely redress your grievances and even let you reincarnate into a good family in your next life."
Lu Gao was already somewhat tempted at this point, and he looked at me with some doubt in his eyes.
Seeing this, I had no choice but to say, "Brother Lu, as long as you are willing to trust me, I can definitely help you clear your name. Director Zhao Cheng is not scary. Do you want to be a wandering ghost for the rest of your life?"
My voice got a little louder.
Lu Gao remained silent. After waiting for a while, he gradually said, "Okay, I'm willing to go to the underworld, but you must ensure my safety..."
"Don't worry, that's for sure. Just follow us and we will ensure your safety."
Fatty Wang immediately responded.
It was this sentence that basically dispelled Lu Gao's idea.
He began to walk down from above.
Just as it was about to get close to us, suddenly at this moment, a faint light flashed. Along with this flash of light, Lu Gao suddenly let out a scream, and his whole soul suddenly became extremely weak.
My heart sank and I quickly ran towards Lu Gao.
Lu Gao fell to the ground at this time, his soul was extremely weak, and his soul was dissipating at this time.
"Brother Lu, are you okay?"
I asked worriedly.
But Lu Gao was basically speechless at this moment, his face was pale, and some white spots appeared on his body.
Fatty Wang's expression also became a little lonely. He said, "It's useless. He's dead."
His words immediately made me feel extremely guilty.
Fatty Wang walked to the side and picked up something. When he came close to me, he showed it to me and said, "Chen Yang, this is a Yin Fu Zhuan. It is very easy to kill a soul with such a Yin Fu Zhuan."
"Someone wants to silence us and prevent us from finding witnesses."
I followed Fatty Wang's instructions and said this.
Fatty Wang nodded and said, "Yes, someone is indeed trying to silence us, and this person is most likely Director Zhao Cheng."
"Wang Tong, can this Yin Fu Zhuan be used as evidence?"
I asked immediately.
At this time, the soul of Lu Gao, who was lying on the ground, had completely disappeared.
I felt a sense of sadness in my heart. Director Zhao Cheng was such a bastard. He was so bold and reckless that he didn't take human life seriously at all. He would kill anyone he wanted.
Fatty Wang then told me, "This Yin Fu Zhuan cannot be used as evidence. There are many people who can use Yin Fu Zhuan, but this Yin Fu Zhuan is different from ordinary ones and has limitations."
Fatty Wang introduced the Yin Fu Zhuan to me, and I listened with fascination, and then asked, "Are there any restrictions?"
"You also know Taoist Priest Yang. The talismans that Taoist Priest Yang uses are usually yellow, and there may also be golden ones. There are generally no black talismans like this."
I didn't respond to Fatty Wang's speech at this time and waited for him to continue.
He paused for a moment, then said, "Generally speaking, it is impossible for Taoist priests of the Righteous Way to use this kind of Yin Fu Zhuan. Instead, some people of the crooked ways use this kind of Yin Fu Zhuan. Another kind of people also use it, and that is the Yin officials of the underworld."
When he said this, I basically understood what he meant.
That is to say, this kind of Yin Fu Zhuan may be used by two kinds of people, so it cannot be confirmed whether it was used by Zhao Chengju, but it is very likely that Zhao Chengju used it.
Therefore, this clue can only be regarded as a hidden clue.
Fatty Wang said to me, "Chen Yang, let's put this Yin Fu Zhuan away first. Maybe it can be useful in the future."
I nodded and put the black talisman away.
I got the talisman and said, "Wang Tong, Director Zhao Cheng might have sent someone to follow us. As long as we find a witness, this bastard will probably kill the witness. This is a very tricky thing for us."
Wang Tong nodded.
Fang Nianci frowned slightly, and became obviously worried. Fang Nianci said, "Then what should we do now?"
Director Zhao Cheng acted so recklessly and killed innocent people indiscriminately.
This also made me more certain of the idea of killing Director Zhao Chengju. Moreover, this bastard Director Zhao Chengju is the local god of Fengcheng Township where I live. I still feel that he may have a grudge against my family.
The deaths of my grandfather and uncle were also related to him.
Now he is doing this, and he also wants to put me to death.
I felt a little heavy at the moment, and I didn't think about implicating Lu Gao and causing him to die because of me.
"Wang Tong, do you know where Lu Gao's grave is? I want to go and pay my respects there later."
"Let's talk about it when the time comes. Only by bringing Director Zhao Cheng to justice can we do justice to Lu Gao." Fatty Wang's voice gradually became heavy.
I nodded softly, agreeing with what Fatty Luo said.
We absolutely cannot let Lu Gao die in vain.
We stood here for a while, and then we would look for another witness. However, this time, we had to be very careful when looking for witnesses, and we must not let our guard down, lest we be secretly killed by that bastard Zhao Chengju.
Wang Tong and I looked around but didn't see any suspicious figures.
Director Zhao Cheng is now a free man, and he is still the god of the underworld. He is stronger than us in both official rank and strength. It is not easy for us to deal with him.
I took a deep breath and said to Fatty , "Wang Tong, can we ask the underworld to send someone to protect our witnesses?"
