What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?
Chapter 524 Let's find out tonight!
Although he is usually talkative, he is definitely not a person who likes to show off.
I guess they felt that they had done things that were supposed to be theirs but hadn't done them well enough, which caused the boast they made last night to affect me again.
That's why they wanted to explore further despite the risks.
The unspoken understanding and mutual concern among the three of us warmed my heart.
"Old Jin did the right thing."
At that moment, I chimed in.
"Since that ancient well could give birth to a composite evil spirit, it means that what's inside is definitely not simple."
Before you've figured out the details, going down the mine in your current state is like going to deliver takeout.
Your feng shui formation and my willow-leaf dagger can temporarily stabilize the situation, and that's enough.
We'll discuss the rest in more detail later.
I looked at the back of Li Qing's head and said slowly.
Hearing my words, Li Qing sighed helplessly and slumped into his seat like a deflated balloon.
Jin Wanliang seemed very happy, and he patted the steering wheel with a smile.
"See? I knew Brother Chen was a sensible man."
He said with a chuckle.
"By the way, Brother Chen."
Jin Wanliang paused for a moment, then changed the subject.
"This afternoon, Boss Wang stayed with us at the construction site. He was quite frightened when he saw the well being dug out."
When I told him I'd wait until you got off work to make a decision, he originally wanted to drive to the funeral home to pick you up himself, as a sign of his sincerity.
Jin Wanliang smiled and continued:
"But I was thinking that you usually practice your spirituality at the funeral home, and you dislike being disturbed and you don't like the formalities in the business world."
So I made up an excuse to send him away, and came to pick you up myself with Li Qing.
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, Lao Jin."
I nodded to the rearview mirror to express my gratitude for his thoughtfulness.
Once you get involved with someone like Boss Wang, you'll be showered with attention and flattery.
I'm really not good at handling those kinds of situations; I'm more comfortable staying in the car with Lao Jin and Li Qing.
"Where is Boss Wang now?" I asked casually.
"He's at that private restaurant from yesterday, he's booked the most luxurious private room, and he's eagerly waiting for us to come and have a feast."
Jin Wanliang said with a smile.
"Now that the ancient well has been dug out, he treats us like his saviors."
This meal was probably an attempt to gauge our opinion and see how confident we were about the outcome.
"Alright, let's go and meet him then."
I leaned back in my chair, closed my eyes, and felt the steady flow of malevolent energy within my body as I spoke in a soothing tone.
"After we've eaten, let's go and visit that ancient well."
Upon hearing this, Jin Wanliang responded and stepped on the gas.
The Mercedes-Benz accelerated smoothly in the afterglow of the setting sun, merging into the evening rush hour traffic in Jiangcheng, and headed towards the hotel.
About half an hour later, Jin Wanliang parked his car in front of the private restaurant from yesterday.
Boss Wang had obviously been waiting for a long time.
As soon as we got out of the car, he immediately came up to us with a big smile on his face.
That obsequious manner made it seem as if they were welcoming some important leader.
"Oh, Master Chen, General Manager Jin, Master Li, please come in, please come in!"
The private room was ready long ago, just waiting for our distinguished guests to be seated.
As he rubbed his hands together, Mr. Wang bent slightly and led the way.
Stepping into the spacious and luxurious private room, the table was already laden with a dazzling array of exquisite dishes.
Not only did Boss Wang prepare a table of local specialty dishes, but he also specially opened a bottle of Moutai that had been aged for a long time.
The hospitality during the meal was exceptionally attentive.
However, everyone knew in their hearts that this meal was not just a simple welcome dinner.
After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,
Mr. Wang held his wine glass, his face slightly flushed from the alcohol, but the worry and anxiety in his eyes were impossible to hide.
He glanced cautiously at Li Qing, then turned his gaze to me, and tentatively began to speak:
"Um... Master Chen, Master Li."
I also took a look at the ancient well that was unearthed at the construction site at noon today from a distance.
The sheer scale of it, the chilling air emanating from it, was truly frightening.
I just want to ask, shamelessly, is it... possible for us to completely resolve this matter?
Upon hearing Boss Wang's anxious question, Li Qing, who was gnawing on a large hairy crab, mumbled a couple of unclear sounds.
He didn't speak directly, but instead turned his gaze to me.
Jin Wanliang also put down his chopsticks, looked at me with a smile, and waited for me to express my opinion.
I pulled out a wet wipe from the table, slowly wiped my hands, then picked up the teacup in front of me and took a sip of warm water to wash away the greasiness in my mouth.
Meeting Boss Wang's expectant gaze, I smiled and said in a calm tone:
"Boss Wang, you can rest assured."
Now that we've accepted this commission and received the deposit from Boss Lei, we will naturally take full responsibility for this matter.
Although that well looks eerie, it's still within our scope of investigation.
My voice wasn't loud, but it didn't have that deliberately feigned coldness or inscrutable quality; it was like chatting casually with a neighbor.
Upon hearing what I said, Mr. Wang's tense shoulders visibly relaxed.
He let out a long breath and nodded repeatedly:
"With Master Chen's words, I feel much more at ease."
Come, come, let me toast you!
I picked up my teacup and clinked it against his, then put it down and looked at him as I continued:
"However, since everyone is here today, let's not delay any longer. There's no time like the present."
Boss Wang, please make arrangements now to prepare a small lifting machine and bring a few reliable workers over.
Tonight, I'll go down the well and find out what's going on.
"Tonight...tonight?"
Boss Wang was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting me to act so quickly.
"Isn't it too dangerous to be out so late at night?"
"How about we wait until tomorrow when the yang energy is stronger in broad daylight..."
"No need to wait until tomorrow."
I waved my hand, interrupting him.
"Although the yin energy is strong at night, it is also the time when things underneath are most likely to reveal their true nature."
You just need to arrange the equipment; leave the rest to us.
Seeing that I had made up my mind, Boss Wang didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly took out his phone and went out of the private room to arrange the crane and manpower.
Watching Boss Wang's departing figure, I leaned back in my mahogany chair and closed my eyes to rest.
My decision to go down the mine tonight wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, nor was it to show off in front of my employer.
This contains the logic I've been pondering deeply in the car.
Firstly, the ancient well was like a volcano constantly leaking out yin energy.
Whatever is hidden at the bottom of the well, someone needs to go down and find out the truth.
Only in this way can we find the right solution and take targeted measures.
