What do you mean I'm a ghost story?

Chapter 43 A tacit understanding
"What is a telepathic connection...?"

After getting a little familiar with the effects of "Qingfu Returns Wealth", Xia Qing looked at the other ability that had appeared on the Money Darts attribute panel.

This time, it was unlocked by increasing the level of tacit understanding.

Based on the two abilities mentioned in the past, it should also be the ability to enhance communication and understanding.

Seeing that the name was not much different from "Unforgettable", Xia Qing tried to summon the Money Dart Technique, and sure enough, it responded.

"Golden Dart Technique: Holy crap, boss, you're awesome! That was an incredibly cool move."

"The Money Dart Technique: Boss, did you plan this stunt all along, deliberately letting him trick you?"

"The Money Dart Technique: What was supposed to be a loss of 16,800 yuan actually came back, with a few thousand yuan more! Awesome!"

"The Money Dart Technique: Boss, you are my guiding light! At the end of the business world, who will reign supreme? Upon seeing you, Boss, all paths to enlightenment will vanish!"

The moment the thought crossed his mind, text messages appeared one after another, like a company boss begging for his life.

"So that's what it means."

Seeing this, Xia Qing immediately understood the effect of "telepathy".

It is different from being unable to forget.

The preceding text was written in the third person, narrating and providing hints, explaining what the "Golden Dart Technique" was doing.

Although linguistic descriptions may occasionally be included in the descriptions, this is only a very rare and uncontrollable random occurrence, and it is essentially a third-person description.

Keeping it in mind transforms a notification that only appears passively with important information into something that can be actively accessed and understood at any time.

In simple terms, being able to communicate directly via text messages is what it means to have a telepathic connection.

It's similar to a chat app; you can send money darts, but whether you see them or not is up to you. You can see the message by 'opening' it.

Overall, it's a good thing, as it makes communication more direct and clear.

Previously, various things were unclear, and the prompts could only provide a general description, leaving most of the information to be guessed.

Now at least we can ask face-to-face.

However, whether it was due to excessive excitement or simply holding back for too long, this man with the Money Dart technique became quite talkative.

Fortunately, whether he opens it or not is up to him, and he had already discovered earlier that he could block notifications and even the perception of the outside world by these personalized martial arts at any time.

Close the chat directly.

The world immediately returned to peace.

"How did you manage to go out and gather intelligence last time? When can you go out again?"

After waiting a short while, estimating that the excitement of the Money Dart Technique had subsided, Xia Qing resumed communicating with the Money Dart Technique.

"The Money Dart Technique: It seems to have been triggered by killing that Nightmare. At that time, my 'Spend Money Like a Fortune' ability underwent some mysterious change, and then I felt like I could spend money to get out."

"The Money Dart Technique: But I don't know exactly how we got out, since our sensory perceptions of life forms are completely different."

"Did it cause this by killing that nightmare?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Qing also fell into deep thought.

He originally thought that spending a lot of money could make him use his "fortune", which is why the Money Dart Technique was a bit special, giving him the ability to use money to go out and gather intelligence.

I never expected there to be such a hidden story.

The changes were caused by killing a Nightmare? Is there a causal relationship between the two? Or does killing any Nightmare cause these changes?
Logically speaking, Xia Qing clearly prefers the former.

And if we're talking about a necessary connection between the two, then there is indeed one.

The Money Dart Technique was awakened precisely because of the stimulation from the bewitching nightmare.

Perhaps the killing of the enemy eliminated some kind of inner demon or nemesis.

Of course, it could also be a purely coincidental and accidental situation. Even the Money Darts Method itself can't explain why, so we can only wait and see.

It just so happens that the nightmare that triggered the awakening of Tai Chi skills is at Zhang Hai's house, so we can give it a try if we have the chance.

Why do you call those ghostly things nightmares?

"Where did you get these things?" "Do you know anything else?"

Xia Qing then tried asking many more questions about things she cared about.

Unfortunately, this guy, the Money Dart Technique, knew absolutely nothing about it.

It only develops consciousness when it is startled awake.

As for why one knows about nightmares, the answer is instinct, or some kind of profound understanding.

"What use are you! Eat my silencing spell!"

After stopping chatting, Xia Qing spent the rest of the day resting and recharging.

"Go to this address:..."

It wasn't until around 10 p.m. that he received the location information from Viper.

Xia Qing looked around and saw that it was a villa area, not too far from here.

Without saying much, he shouldered his halberd, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the address Viper had given him.

The journey was uneventful, and the car soon entered the villa area smoothly, stopping at the gate of one of the courtyards.

The villa has a decent area, but it doesn't look like the kind of luxurious house belonging to a wealthy family; it's more like a small detached house for the middle class.

Xia Qing pressed the doorbell, and the person inside, who had probably already been informed by Viper, rushed over to open the door with a warm smile on their face.

However, he was slightly taken aback when he saw Xia Qing's appearance.

"why you?"

It's Zhang Hai.

Upon seeing Xia Qing, his enthusiastic smile vanished, and he frowned slightly.

"I encountered an emergency the night before last, and when I tried to contact you again, you had already blocked me."

Xia Qing was also somewhat helpless, and offered an explanation.

It's no wonder they acted that way; after all, I took the money and immediately stood them up and disappeared.

At that time, his mother had fallen into the hands of the Bewitching Nightmare, and he was so emotionally charged that he couldn't care about anything else.

Cell phones also need to be protected against sleep-inducing text messages from nightmares, and music needs to be played continuously.

If a phone call comes in and the music stops, that would be a disaster, so I had to turn on airplane mode.

Who would have thought Zhang Hai would be so hot-tempered, not even wanting the money, and just blocking him directly.

How did you find your way here?

Zhang Hai wasn't an unreasonable person. He relaxed slightly after hearing Xia Qing's explanation, but soon looked doubtful again.

He didn't remember ever giving his home address; his father had only told him to pick him up.

"I……"

"Mr. Zhang, let him in. He's kind of an unofficial member of our staff."

Just as Xia Qing was about to speak, Viper's voice came through the electronic access control's communication channel.

"Oh, oh, so you're one of your men, officer. I'm so sorry, I'll start right away."

As Zhang Hai offered his somewhat apological apology, the villa's security gate opened.

Xia Qing immediately picked up his halberd and smoothly entered the villa's hall.

"Please, please, I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were also..."

Zhang Hai warmly welcomed Xia Qing into the room while apologizing somewhat awkwardly.

"It's okay, it's only human nature, I have problems too."
