Chapter 1222 - 420: Offending Others, Key Information (6k)_4

"In this situation, even if we could find someone, we might not be able to communicate."

"Oh, I know about these things. To be honest, we wanted to visit the Scorching Sun Department in the Capital City, but the Scorching Sun Headquarters doesn’t have any related literature. I’m really out of options, so I thought of asking you for help."

"Okay, Elder Brother Li, send me your information. I’ll ask someone and look for you once I have news."

Wen Yan added someone as a friend, noted this task down, and planned to give it a try on the Nether Path later. For him, it was indeed a convenient matter.

As for whether it would succeed, that wasn’t his concern.

Just as he finished chatting, someone else came over, wanting to add him as a friend and chat a bit, just to get better acquainted.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, in Guanzhong County.

Lord Zhu received a call.

"Hey, you old ghost, I thought you couldn’t do it anymore; it took you so long to call me back. Did you find out something?"

"Oh, alright, I understand. The person is in Guanzhong County? And in the County Town, right? Okay, got it."

Lord Zhu hung up the phone, and after giving orders, by nightfall, a paper vehicle was seen driving on the road, with Feng Wei and Tong Si in it, driven by a chauffeur, heading to a cemetery in the outskirts.

Tong Si blinked, transforming into Grim-eyed, looking at the cemetery, immediately spotting countless intangible Ghost entities.

"Over there, found him. There’s someone poisoned to death, someone killed in a car accident, someone burned to death—their characteristics are quite obvious."

"Are there really so many foreign Ghosts in this place?" Feng Wei was a bit surprised, clearly learning about this for the first time.

"Well, the houses here are cheap, just like an urban village. In each grave, divided into upper, lower, left, and right sections, the owner’s family resides in one room, and tenants in another. Plus, the management here isn’t so strict." The driver of the paper vehicle understood these matters well.

Leading Feng Wei and Tong Si to one row in the cemetery, Feng Wei reached out and knocked on the brick in front of a tombstone.

"Hey, Liu’er, are you there?"

A Ghost floated up from behind the tombstone, pitch-black and purple, with bits of black smoke occasionally emerging from its body.

"Who are you?"

"Lord Zhu sent us to pick you up." The driver turned back and pointed at the paper vehicle parked below the hillside.

Seeing the vehicle, the pitch-black Ghost became less wary.

The Ghosts of Guanzhong County all knew there was a paper taxi like this, even capable of transporting living people, yet it wasn’t sanctioned by the Scorching Sun Department.

The vehicle reached Lord Zhu’s place, and the pitch-black Ghost saw Lord Zhu.

"I hear from the old ghost that you know what I want to know?"

"Is it Wen Yan who wants to ask about these matters?" The pitch-black Ghost questioned back.

"Yes."

"Then I want to see Wen Yan. Only when Wen Yan comes will I talk."

Lord Zhu wasn’t angry, but rather smiled.

"Whatever benefit you want, just say it. On this matter, if what you’re giving is valuable, then I can ensure your demands will be met."

"No, even if I say it, you can’t protect me." The pitch-black Ghost stubbornly refused to speak.

"Fine, then wait." Upon hearing this, Lord Zhu felt a bit assured.

Previously, when Wen Yan asked him to inquire about the Ghost Wealth God, he had no news here. The old ghost he contacted gave him a name, saying this person knew.

Looking at this situation now, it seemed like they indeed knew something significant.

Lord Zhu directly made a call in front of several people.

"Hey, Wen Yan, where are you?"

"Oh, attending a meeting in the Capital City, huh.

Here’s the thing: you asked me before to find out something, right?

Today, my old friend recommended a Ghost.

He probably knows a lot, but he doesn’t trust me much. He says only if you come will he tell you.

All right, then I got it."

Lord Zhu hung up the phone, looking at the Ghost.

"Wait, it should be about two hours before the person arrives."
