You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

The middle-aged man respectfully bowed three times to Su Chen, then stood up and introduced him.

"Master Su, I'm Ding Zongming from the Ding family of Ludao Island. I came here specifically to express my gratitude..."

……

"Let me tell you? It's really money!"

When Old Liao on the opposite side saw them opening the box, his eyes widened immediately and he patted Chai Daqian's arm excitedly.

Chai Daqian: “…”

"I saw it, I saw it..."

"Ah~" Lao Liao crossed his arms with emotion, "I wish I could be as capable as Xiao Su."

You can buy a house for your grandson in advance.

There have been a lot of building construction going on in a lot of places lately. He got a flyer and secretly went to a place called Jade Community to take a look. The prefabricated houses there were good in every way, except...

Expensive!

One set costs more than 40,000 yuan.

When will I be able to earn enough money from selling steamed buns?

Chai Daqian patted Lao Liao on the shoulder.

"Don't be envious, you won't be envious."

"Yeah, if I had the time, I'd think about making some more variations. Maybe I could sell more steamed buns."

When this was brought up, Chai Daqian asked him, "Have you heard? There's a big restaurant opening down the river. What kind of buns are they going to sell?"

"Bag?" Lao Liao was puzzled. "That bag that Ah Chun was holding? The restaurant sells bags? Is that crazy? Or... steamed buns?"

"It's not a bun. My son said it has meat in the middle. Anyway, it's a foreign restaurant. I heard it's delicious. When it reopens, I'll call your grandchildren to come with us and eat."

Lao Liao was about to refuse.

"My treat."

Old Liao was delighted and nodded: "Okay."

On the other side, Su Chen stood up.

He put a few boxes into the hardware store and handed them to A Biao, then turned to look at Lao Liao and the others.

"Uncle Chai, let me know when that restaurant opens, and I'll take the kids there to join in the fun."

Chai Daqian said loudly: "No problem."

After he finished speaking, he and Lao Liao watched Su Chen disappear in the hardware store. They were no longer surprised.

The two continued chatting.

"The area around Xiahe is really getting developed. It used to be paddy fields for growing rice, but now it's all built up with houses."

"Of course not! The farmers over there have become prosperous and received a lot of compensation. Why did I insist on working in a factory in the first place? Being a farmer is so much better."

"Didn't I hear that the compensation hasn't been paid yet? Has it been paid?"

Chai Daqian nodded and lowered his voice: "According to the gossip, it will be this month."

In an instant, it was as if a bottle of vinegar was poured into Lao Liao's mouth.

On the other side, Su Chen walked out of the ghost path and arrived at a valley.

He frowned and looked around. No, this should be on the mountain peak.

However, as far as the eye can see, there are stretches of lush and green terraced fields, and below the terraced fields are stone houses with gray tiles.

The stone houses are connected to form three circles with a small square in the middle.

There is a waterfall beside the terraced fields, which merges into a stream that flows halfway around the stone houses. The stream is clear and the smooth rocks are clearly visible.

Su Chen bent down and scooped up a handful of stream water.

It's already February.

The stream formed by mountain springs was extremely cold, but under Su Chen's divine eyes, he saw thick black air spreading in the stream.

Look at the rocks in the stream, the bamboo forest beside the stream, the stone houses... they are all like this.

It is clearly a place filled with evil spirits, yet the scenery is so pleasant.

So weird!

No wonder Liu Xian fell into the trap.

Su Chen spread his hands and let the stream water fall slowly.

He stood up and walked towards the stone house not far away.

Suddenly, three women walked out of the stone houses. They were holding large wooden basins filled with clothes, with soap nuts and washing mallets placed on the edge.

They walked towards Su Chen, talking and laughing.

When they discovered Su Chen, the three of them were stunned.

"Stranger?"

Su Chen nodded: "Yes, I came from outside."

"It must be that Ning Hui who was on night watch and fell asleep, letting a stranger in." One of the women advised Su Chen, "Stranger, we don't welcome strangers in Yagu Village. You'd better leave quickly, and don't let our village chief find out."

Su Chen: “???”

"It's okay to be discovered, right?"

Another woman squinted her eyes and said, "How can it be nothing? If you're discovered, you'll have to stay in Yagu Village forever. You don't have any family here, do you? Don't you miss them?"

Su Chen frowned.

"Forever, stay in Cliff Valley Village?"

"why?"

The other woman rolled her eyes. "Why else? There's so much chaos out there, with famine and war. Our Yagu Village is a place of seclusion. If people outside knew about this and found our place, how could we possibly live such a peaceful and happy life?"

"That's right. My father told me that the bandits out there kill people without blinking an eye and even hang severed heads on trees. Tsk tsk, it's so scary just thinking about it."

Su Chen paused and turned his gaze to the bamboo forest by the stream.

In the bamboo forest, vaguely, one seemed to see some black, round objects.

Therefore, it was the arrival of outsiders that brought devastating disaster to Yagu Village.

The villagers are filled with resentment, so the whole village is filled with evil spirits?

While Su Chen was thinking, he saw the woman waving her hand: "Stranger, hurry up and leave. Leave quickly and stealthily before Ning Hui wakes up. The farther the better."

"Yes, yes, please don't come back."

Su Chen smiled and nodded: "Okay, I understand."

As he turned around, the sound of a gong suddenly rang out from the group of stone houses.

The three women were stunned for a moment, their eyes dulled for a moment, and they all turned around and walked towards the stone house.

Su Chen: “???”

The three women forced smiles on their faces and laughed happily together.

"Kill the New Year pig."

"Yes, you can eat pork now."

"Finally, there's meat to eat!"

Killing the New Year pig?

It's already February and the Chinese New Year has long passed.

Su Chen frowned, cast an illusion on himself, and followed.

The three women walked slowly at first, but soon they broke into a jog.

Soon, they arrived at the small square surrounded by stone houses.

Su Chen looked around and found that everyone around him was like the three women, full of murderous aura.

So many zombies!

When he looked at the so-called New Year Pig in the middle, his eyes narrowed instantly.

Why is it Zheng Heng?

Zheng Heng was unconscious at the moment. His hands and feet were tied and hung on a horizontal wooden board with a large wooden basin underneath.

There was a dead air between his brows, and his whole body had been permeated by evil spirits. Under the eyes of heaven, the Taoist power in his body was as small as a firefly. Although he tried his best to resist, he was still gradually swallowed by the evil spirits.

What about the rest?

Could it have been killed as a pig?

By the way, did Wang Haitao bring the rest of the investigation team this time?

If other ordinary people really came...

Su Chen was a little hesitant to think about it.

As he was thinking, he noticed that the soil under his feet had loosened.

Looking down, a small head popped up.

It's a mouse.

The mouse's black eyes rolled around, and its little claws tugged at Su Chen's shoes twice, pointing forward.

Under the Heaven's Eye, Su Chen saw Liu Xian attached to it at a glance and nodded.

Before leaving, he injected some merit into Zheng Heng's body.

The Taoist power in Zheng Heng's body trembled, as if waiting for reinforcements, and began to fiercely resist the evil spirit.

Zheng Heng, who was originally unconscious, slowly opened his eyes.

Everywhere I look, I see people with stiff expressions.

Zheng Heng cursed Wang Haitao again in his heart as an unreliable bastard.

He struggled and found that his hands and feet were tied and he couldn't get free at all. He felt a little discouraged.

Done!

Am I really going to die here today?
