Chapter 422: The King's Organization's Intelligence Agent, the Waste King Cha Ling
"Da He, what's the situation? Do you need any help?"
The most important purpose of Lin Yuan's visit this time was for He Yiner.
He Yin'er has been guarding here for seven days and seven nights without leaving for a moment, but the supernatural powers she now possesses do not require too much consumption at this level.
Even now, she is in good spirits.
"Thank you, Brother Yuan. I have almost made all the arrangements here. We can bury him when the time comes."
Boss Liu stepped forward and said, "Boss Lin, don't worry. We watched Yin'er grow up, and Lao He is also our brother, so we will naturally help him with his affairs. It's just that there are too few people in the town now, so it can't be as lively as before, otherwise there wouldn't be only a few of us here now."
Taiping Town used to be very particular.
Although everyone is doing business, they are very united when it comes to funerals. As long as someone has died, there is no need to go door to door to announce it. All you need is a string of firecrackers and everyone who hears will come to help.
pity.
Taiping Town is now deserted, with only a few people left.
Lin Yuan didn't know what to say about these situations, so he could only nod his head to show that he understood, "I'll stay and help tonight, and you can call me if you need anything."
As the boss, Lin Yuan couldn't force the store employees to come and help, but he himself could stay.
Boss Liu and his companions were naturally very polite. He Yiner didn't say anything, but her eyes were fixed on Lin Yuan. No one knew what she was thinking.
The supernatural circle is neither too sophisticated nor too sophisticated, but if you say it is sophisticated, it’s just so-so.
Generally, ghost riders who live to old age will dismember their own spirits before death in order to avoid their evil spirits reviving and harming future generations. They will then quietly allow a very small number of people to bury them, or they will simply bury themselves.
He Liansheng's situation is somewhat special.
Before his death, he had passed on the inheritance of the necromancer to He Yiner. Only one tenth of his own supernatural powers remained, and there was a black ghost coffin to store his corpse.
There is also He Yiner, a new generation necromancer guarding this place, and Boss Liu, the faceless man, the middle-aged woman and other people who are the last heritage of Taiping Ancient Town guarding here. There is no need to worry about anyone coming to cause trouble or doing anything to He Liansheng's body.
Now there are more "store managers", so there is even less to worry about.
Time passed, and soon it was the midnight hour, then the chou hour and the yin hour, and it was almost time for the funeral.
Boss Liu left for a while and when he came back, he was followed by a large group of paper people. However, after these paper people appeared in front of Lin Yuan, they all turned into robots.
Looking at these robots, Lin Yuan was surprised. "You guys are really... so advanced with the times. You can even use robots for funerals?"
Boss Liu was also looking at these paper figures that had turned into robots.
These robots were all dressed in white mourning clothes, and each of them held paper money, spirit banners, etc. in their hands. They looked very professional at first glance.
Seeing this scene, even though Boss Liu and his companions have lived for so many years, they don’t know what to say.
Keep up with the times?
They are all old antiques. If they really wanted to keep up with the times, they would not still be staying in this ancient town of Taiping. But now the paper figures have turned into robots, what else can they say?
"Yes, although we are old, we have always been at the forefront of development."
Lin Yuan nodded, turned around, patted He Yiner on the shoulder, and said, "It's almost time."
"Got it, Brother Yuan."
He Yiner stood up and asked the robots to carry the coffin, while she herself held He Liansheng's spirit tablet in her arms. When the time was almost up, the funeral procession consisting of nearly thirty robots was ready to set off.
Everything was ready, so there was no further delay.
Carry the coffin on the road!
Thirty robots began today's funeral procession. Instead of leaving through the archway and heading towards reality, they headed towards a road farther away.
Lin Yuan followed the team, feeling curious but also confused.
"Old Liu, where does this lead to?"
Boss Liu didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he answered honestly: "I'm not sure either. I've never been to this place before."
As they were talking, they had reached the corner of the street. There were no more houses standing in a row here. The surroundings were deserted, and there was only a bare bluestone road under their feet.
After walking a few steps, you can see a bare shop standing in the darkness not far away.
This store did not collapse or close down. It was still open for business, and even the door was open, which instantly attracted Lin Yuan's attention.
Then, he saw three words written on the white plaque at the door of the store:
Coffin shop!
"Is this a shop selling coffins? No wonder it's so far away. If it were really placed on the main street, no one would be happy about it. Lao He should have bought his coffin here, right?" Lin Yuan muttered softly.
As the team approached, they saw a coffin placed in the middle of the open shop door.
Lin Yuan noticed it at the first sight, and said "bad luck" to himself, then quickly followed the funeral procession to leave. Not long after he left, the wide open door suddenly slammed shut.
The loud crash echoed far into the darkness.
It was as if the owner inside was hiding from something dangerous.
At the same time, several figures had arrived outside the real Taiping Ancient Town, standing on the top of the building that had not been completely submerged, looking around.
"How could the domestic Ghost Control Headquarters be able to suppress such a large-scale supernatural event? With this level of strength, it is probably not much different from the King's Organization."
"What's the point of comparing? If you really want to see who is stronger, you'll know when we clash. Don't think too much now. Don't forget our mission this time."
"That's true, but how do we get to that so-called ghost street now?"
Several people looked at each other. They were all ghost riders, and they came to collect intelligence for the king's organization. However, facing the Taiping Ancient Town submerged by the Ghost Lake, they were a little overwhelmed.
Suddenly someone said in surprise: "Look, there's a boat coming!"
Several people immediately looked over and saw a black ferry coming slowly from the white fog in the distance. One of them said, "According to the information we collected before, this boat can travel freely on Ghost Lake. We will get on board in a while and drive it through the archway to Ghost Street."
It can be heard that they don't have a very thorough understanding of the information about Taiping Ancient Town, but they definitely know a lot.
"Wait! There's someone on the boat!"
"So what if there are people? There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of just one person?"
"If you know what's good for you, that's fine. But if you don't, there's no need to kill him. Just throw him into the ghost lake and let him die on his own."
Before, the ship was in the white fog and no one noticed the situation on the ship. It was not until the ship came closer that they discovered a figure on the ship.
But no one was afraid, instead there was endless indifference.
"Oh my, this is so scary. You want to throw me into the ghost lake at any time. Are you bandits from somewhere?"
A frivolous laugh sounded, but there was endless indifference in Cao Yang's eyes.
At the same time, behind the few people, a figure in black clothes and black pants suddenly appeared, as if he had been standing there.
Ghost Messenger Wei Jing!
A few minutes later, this group of ghost riders who appeared out of nowhere were controlled. Three of them were stubborn and put up particularly strong resistance. According to their own suggestion, they were thrown directly into the Ghost Lake by Cao Yang.
Although it is just a derivative of the ghost lake, it is a real ghost lake after all, and there is no danger of it being full of evil spirits, let alone sinking a few people.
Even if there are a hundred more of them, they can easily sink to the bottom of the water.
With these three "examples", the remaining two people immediately calmed down and confessed their situation in detail without any hesitation.
However, the information they gave made Cao Yang and Wei Jing very solemn.
According to the two men, they are intelligence officers of the King's organization, responsible for collecting domestic intelligence and reporting it in order to obtain generous rewards.
But they are all from China.
"These guys remind me of Luo Sheng, who used to be the person in charge of Tai O City." Wei Jing's voice was very calm, but it was not difficult to hear the anger hidden in it.
His anger was not directed at individuals, but at everyone who had the identity of a betrayer.
Cao Yang nodded, "Fortunately, Luo Sheng has been exposed, thanks to the store manager. Otherwise, if this guy had been in control of a city like Tai O that is open to the outside world, I don't know how dangerous it would be."
Luo Sheng was exposed because he rashly entered the Peace Hotel and ate and ran away.
Fortunately, that's the case.
Otherwise, if such a traitor were to control Tai O City, which is an important port city for the country and the outside world, if the so-called King's Organization had any ideas, they would definitely march straight into Tai O City.
By the time the country is alerted, the other party may have already penetrated deep into the country.
Just thinking about it makes people feel chilling and scary.
As for the King's Organization going to great lengths to buy off so many people in the country, who are intelligence agents hidden among the people and are the persons in charge of a city, is it possible that they just act casually and have no intention of targeting the country?
Even a fool wouldn't believe it.
"It's a good decision to come here tonight, otherwise we wouldn't know that there is such an organization in the country." Wei Jing lowered his head and kicked one of them.
With just one kick, the man rolled his eyes and fainted completely.
The remaining person was trembling all over, curled up, and tried hard to reduce his presence, for fear that Wei Jing would kick him in the same way.
You have to know that the man just now is a ghost rider who controls two ghosts and his strength is quite strong.
But even so, they were no match for the two captains at the headquarters. They were knocked unconscious by a single kick. It wasn't just a physical dizziness, but the two ghosts were completely suppressed. It was really, too scary!
"Report the situation. These people have already targeted the store manager." Cao Yang didn't say anything else. He picked up the satellite positioning phone and started contacting the headquarters.
They came here tonight because the white fog ghost area covered most of the Taiping Ancient Town, so they rushed to the scene.
In fact, they didn't think they would gain anything, because with the "store manager" present, there would definitely not be any supernatural events.
Their arrival is more about determining how things will develop.
After all, He Yin'er is one of the captains of the headquarters. Although her heart is no longer in the headquarters, she is still in charge of Ohara City and several nearby cities.
Both authority and responsibility are great.
Today happens to be the day when He Yiner finished her seventh-day mourning over He Liansheng. The headquarters also needs to understand He Yiner's attitude after that.
According to the original plan, he was going to communicate with He Yiner while the "store manager" was present.
The presence of a "store manager" can help avoid conflicts and contradictions to the greatest extent possible. This is also a consensus among the team leaders at the headquarters.
Soon, the headquarters became aware of the situation.
Cao Yanhua said: "Bring them back. The headquarters has a special interrogation agency, and we should be able to dig out more information from them."
"OK, no problem."
Cao Yang glanced at Wei Jing, who then grabbed the two of them and turned into a rainbow and flew away.
Turn into a rainbow!
This legendary way of traveling has now become the standard for captains, and it is not painful to use it.
There is no need to worry about the evil spirit reviving.
When the evil ghost is about to revive, just take one to three ghosts and go to the Peace Hotel to ask the "store manager" to help "tame" them, and you can get back to a level that is infinitely close to a crash.
In this way, the cost of using supernatural powers is reduced to the extreme, and it is naturally very easy.
Cao Yang stayed, but he was not idle either.
The ghost wind purchased from the "store manager" was howling, covering the Taiping Ancient Town outside the white fog ghost domain, and most of the wild areas.
He used the ghost realm method to search for other people who might be hiding nearby, but found nothing.
Not long after, the sky gradually brightened. At around eight or nine o'clock, the white fog ghost area still had not dissipated. Cao Yang thought about it and took out a three-yuan Peace Hotel commemorative coin from his arms.
next moment.
A black ferry that had gone to an unknown place suddenly appeared in sight, and then came directly to the roof of the building where Cao Yang was.
Judging from his appearance, he seems to be in a hurry to do this business.
"Look at this, even the boats know to put away their belongings."
Cao Yang curled his lips. Fortunately, there was no boatman on the boat, otherwise he would have made a few jokes.
After getting on the boat, he placed the commemorative coin on the oil lamp on the bow and lit it, and the commemorative coin immediately began to burn.
The paper ashes flew away, and a cold wind blew around. The wind condensed and formed a vortex that rolled up the paper ashes.
The air was filled with the smell of paper ash, but it soon dissipated and all the ashes disappeared, and no one knew where they were blown away.
The black wooden boat began to ripple again and rowed towards the inverted waterfall in the sky.
"Stop, stop, stop, we're going in the wrong direction, I want to go to Ghost Street." Cao Yang shouted immediately.
The black wooden boat seemed to understand Cao Yang's words and immediately turned around on the spot, carrying Cao Yang to the archway where reality and the supernatural met.
Cao Yang nodded secretly, "The effect of this commemorative coin is indeed much stronger than the ghost money. It can actually temporarily control the direction of this boat. In essence, this boat should not be much different from the ghost bus, right? If I take the commemorative coin to the ghost bus, can I freely choose the destination?"
While his thoughts were wandering, he had already entered the archway and arrived at the Ghost Street under the guidance of the black wooden boat.
Then, he looked at Lin Yuan affectionately and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan, you are here too?"
"Well, you are here... for the matter of Da He, right? But you are late. Lao He has already gone up the mountain, and the matter here is over." Lin Yuan said.
Just now, he accompanied He Yiner and had handled He Liansheng's funeral.
Well now.
He was taking He Yiner to leave the town and go back to the store, and then go for team building, which would also give He Yiner some time to relax.
Cao Yang glanced at He Yin'er, only to see that He Yin'er was dressed in white and looked very cold.
"It's like this, Brother Yuan. I originally wanted to come here a long time ago, but I ran into some petty thieves outside and just caught them and brought them back to the police station, so I was delayed for a while."
Lin Yuan nodded and frowned, "There are thieves even here? It seems that the world is really getting more and more chaotic."
After hearing this, Cao Yang could only smile awkwardly.
"It seems that we really need to put the matter of opening a branch store on the agenda as soon as possible. However, this requires a lot of financial support. The current store's revenue is still not enough. I have to make use of the e-sports room and recruit more players who have money, free time and interest. In this way, I can gain as much profit as possible to support my plan."
"As long as the framework is set up and there is an example of a healthy operation, as long as there is enough foundation, we can quickly replicate one branch after another."
"When the time comes, I will let all those energetic guys become beast hunters. By hunting beasts to gain profits, I can minimize the frequency of theft and robbery. At the same time, I can also create a currency system of my own, using commemorative coins as a settlement method, which can also greatly increase my voice."
"I need to find some time to discuss the supply of zongzi leaves with Lao Liu. It is better to control this source of material in our own hands."
Lin Yuan had too many things on his mind and didn't have the energy to chat with Cao Yang in detail.
After saying goodbye to Boss Liu and his companions, Lin Yuan took He Yiner back to the Peace Hotel and temporarily put aside the matter of opening a branch and discussing further cooperation with Liu San.
There is only one most important thing now, and that is:
Team building!
He had already discussed with Wang Chaling, the captain of Dadong City, that the format of this team building would also be puzzle, adventure, and hunting games.
of course.
Lin Yuan didn't think there was any risk. If even a first-tier city like Dadong City couldn't guarantee safety, then the world was truly rotten.
At the same time, Cao Yang also left Taiping Ancient Town.
However, he did not return to Dajing City, nor did he return to his own city of Dajin. Instead, he went directly to Dadong City and found Wang Chaling.
Wang Chaling is a little busy now.
I just received a message from the "store manager" and learned that Peace Hotel will be coming for team building today, so he needs to prepare some things.
But Cao Yang came looking for him.
As the captain of the same headquarters, although he looked down upon Cao Yang's ability, he still had some concerns, so he could only put the matter aside for the time being and give him a good reception.
Cao Yang didn't want to talk in an official tone, so he directly explained his purpose. "I hope you can tell me about the situation of the old house. This is also the intention of the headquarters. After all, it is the manager who is going there, and he is also taking all the staff of the Peace Hotel there, so we can't be careless."
Wang Chaling did not answer immediately, but asked, "Captain Cao, are you the only one coming here?"
Cao Yang understood the meaning of his words. "According to the headquarters' assessment, there shouldn't be any major changes in this incident. If there wasn't so little information in that old house, I probably wouldn't have come here to confirm the information with you."
Wang Chaling secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the headquarters didn't notice anything, he would have more tricks to use and it wouldn't be difficult to fool Cao Yang.
And this is indeed the case.
"There is an organization called the Survival Society entrenched in that old house. They are all a group of dangerous guys. I want to get rid of them, but I am weak and timid, so I have been dragging it on until now. The store manager said before that he would come for team building, so I wanted to borrow the store manager's power to uproot this organization and completely eliminate the hidden dangers."
Cao Yang thought about it for a while, but didn't find any obvious loopholes. However, he felt that something was not right. He simply put aside his doubts for the time being and said with a smile, "Captain Wang is too modest. With Captain Wang's strength, he can conquer the world. I guess he didn't want to cause too much impact, so he didn't do it, right?"
Wang Chaling shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't mean to be modest, I am speaking from my heart. Although outsiders think I am a role model in life, with a high degree, a strong family background, and a successful life, in fact, I am just a useless person who has accomplished nothing."
Cao Yang was speechless after hearing this.
He has become the captain of the team, but he still says that he has accomplished nothing. However, he could tell that Wang Chaling's words might be true.
This Wang Chaling seems to have a lot of secrets.
Cao Yang smelled danger. The captain who was originally designated but had little presence in his memory finally became three-dimensional at this moment.
After a short silence, he spoke again: "In that case, I'll stay for now. If there's any problem, it would be nice to be able to lend a hand."
"Okay, thank you very much." Wang Chaling looked grateful and then arranged for Cao Yang to take a temporary rest.
The Wang family has been operating in Dadong City for three generations. Their strength and background are terrifying, including this Ning'an Building, which is also a symbol of strength.
Sitting in the lounge, Cao Yang recalled every word he had spoken to Wang Chaling, and suddenly laughed, "This team building will surely be very interesting."
But his face fell instantly, "Unfortunately, I'm not an employee of the store, so team building has nothing to do with me."
