Mr. Lu is against superstition during the day and learns fortune-telling from his wife at night

Chapter 164: Wild Ghosts on the Mass Grave

"Check the background of Xie Jingheng, the president of Qingyun Society..."

President Li frowned, "This is difficult. You have to know that Qingyun Club holds the secrets and information of the world's powerful people. Xie Jingheng protects his own information very strictly. Let alone me, even if the police come, it will be difficult to find out anything."

Mr. Li scratched his head and said, "Besides, why don't you go to Mr. Zhang? Mr. Zhang has a wide network of contacts and is all-powerful in Wancheng. Maybe he can find out something."

Thinking of how Lu Jingchen tore up and then burned the gift Xie Jingheng gave her, if she were to let him investigate Chongyao, wouldn't he kill her?

Shen Xia Xia shook her head: "We can't alarm the president, and I hope this matter can be done in private, so as not to alarm anyone."

"Boss Li, you are the person in charge of the technical department of Mingyi Technology. It shouldn't be difficult for me to ask you to check something." Shen Xiaxia narrowed her eyes slightly: "Everyone makes mistakes. You will definitely find some clues."

Mr. Li looked embarrassed: "Master Shen, you think too highly of me."

"Okay, if Mr. Li is so embarrassed, then I won't go to this ghost market."

"No, no, no, Master Shen, I've checked everything. I've tried my best." Mr. Li was about to break down. He couldn't stand the scene of washing clothes every night.

Shen Xia Xia put on the golden brocade dress, prepared some weapons, and used the Yin-Yang Ghost Gate to bring Mr. Li to the location of the ghost market.

This place is very remote, it's a mass grave, there's not even a proper road around it, the weather around here is much gloomier than other places, and there's smog all around.

The whole atmosphere was eerie and strange.

The graves here don’t even have tombstones, just a few small piles of graves. It is obvious that they were buried randomly and they didn’t want others to know.

But Shen Xia Xia was wondering, if he didn't want others to know, why didn't he just cremate the body and scatter the ashes, or find a place to hide it.

There is only one possibility. These corpses cannot be shown to the public, not even to the crematorium. They are destined to become nameless corpses and slowly rot in a mass grave.

Mr. Li hid behind Shen Xia Xia in fear, holding a large bag of tribute in one hand and grabbing the corner of Shen Xia Xia's clothes with the other, his hands shaking uncontrollably.

"Boss Li, if you keep pulling, my clothes will get torn."

"I... am afraid... my legs go weak when I think about the meal I had here..." Mr. Li's teeth were chattering and his words were not clear.

Shen Xia Xia clasped her hands together and saluted at the grave: "I didn't mean to offend you, please forgive me."

Shen Xia Xia placed the offerings prepared in advance in front of the tomb and lit incense respectively.

The haze above the mass grave has dissipated a lot.

Several ghosts came out of the tombs, looking delighted: "Wow! It smells so good. This is the first time I have tasted such good offerings and incense in my own territory."

"Yeah, I used to steal from others, and I got used to it, but suddenly I'm not used to it anymore."

A few ghosts greedily sucked the incense and devoured the offerings.

Shen Xia Xia observed the appearance of these ghosts.

There were obvious wounds on their bodies, including many stab marks, and some had skulls pierced by bullets.

It was obvious at first glance that he had died in vain, and his death was extremely tragic.

But the strange thing is that these ghosts did not turn into evil spirits, which shows that these ghosts have strong beliefs in their hearts.

These men all looked to be around 25 years old, with neat short haircuts, wearing tight short-sleeved shirts and camouflage pants. Their muscles seemed to be bulging out of their clothes, and they exuded a strong energy.

He looks like a well-trained person.

One of the ghosts saw Mr. Li trembling all over.

"Hey, isn't that the guy who ate here the other day? He's here again."

"Really? He brought a little beauty with him."

"Is this for revenge?"

A sturdy male ghost wanted to come forward to tease Mr. Li, so Shen Xia Xia took out a Liujia Yin-Yang Talisman from her Wuyin bag and hit the male ghost.

"There are six Jias above and six Dings below. Disturbance is fierce and will cause thunder. The Supreme One has given orders and ordered me to carry them out."

The male ghost in front of him was immediately bound up by the talisman, unable to move. The more he struggled, the tighter the talisman became.

Upon seeing this, the other ghosts immediately gathered in an orderly manner and stood in a neat line.

Shen Xia Xia really admires their discipline.

"Captain Zhang, this woman seems to be able to see us."

The male ghost called Captain Zhang took a few steps forward and looked at Shen Xia Xia: "Miss, can you see us?"

Even though you've turned into a ghost, you're still so polite?

Shen Xiaxia nodded slightly: "Yeah."

"Please let our brother go. He didn't do it on purpose. He was just being naughty. There is really no entertainment in this mass grave, and it's rare to see living people. I'm sorry if I offended you. Miss, please forgive me."

Shen Xia Xia pushed Mr. Li who was behind her to the front. Mr. Li turned around and wanted to run, but was pulled back by Shen Xia Xia.

"My friend accidentally entered your ghost market some time ago. He ate the food in your ghost market without paying. Since then, he has been haunted by nightmares every night. His wife couldn't stand it anymore and has been hospitalized. I hope you can show mercy and let them go. They didn't mean it."

Shen Xia Xia was fully capable of forcibly expelling the evil spirit from Mr. Shen, but she did not do so.

Because if this happens, the ghosts will be scattered. These ghosts are just lost and their crime is not punishable by death.

"Xiao Duan!" Captain Zhang shouted angrily, "Is this your fault?"

Xiao Duan stepped forward from behind and nodded: "I just wanted to play a joke on him, I didn't expect it to be so serious."

"Humans have their own ways, ghosts have their own ways. He ate the food of the underworld because he was greedy. Please remove the ghost curse on him."

Xiao Duan waved his hand, and a cloud of black gas floated out from Mr. Li's body. Mr. Li instantly felt refreshed.

"They were both cursed together. If his curse is lifted, his wife's will be gone along with it." Xiao Duan said.

"Thank you all very much. I apologize for disturbing you." Shen Xia Xia prepared to take Mr. Li away.

"Master, please stay!" Captain Zhang tried to persuade him to stay: "I just saw that you have some skills. Zhang has something to ask of you."

"Everything has its own rules. I'm afraid I can do it too." Shen Xia Xia didn't want to interfere in these matters and raised her foot to leave.

"I don't need the master to do anything, I just want you to help me check someone."

"Who?" This was not a difficult task. It could be seen from the Book of Life and Death. It seemed that these people were all decent people when they were alive. Shen Xia Xia decided to help with this simple task.

"Master, I want you to help me check Lu Mingan. I want to meet him and ask him some questions."
