Chapter 34 Code Name: Ghostly Withered Branch!
"Brother, do you think this money is enough? If not, I'll go get more. Putting everything else aside, at least it'll ensure you can have a comfortable few days in Xiaonan City, and then return to Dachang City in style, how about that?"
Peng Fangyuan came closer, his handsome face bearing a sly smile.
Lin Yuan had previously misunderstood this guy, thinking he was selling his sister to survive. That's why he wanted to beat him up to vent his anger and also let the guy's sister see his true colors, so she wouldn't be sold out and end up helping him count the money.
The misunderstanding has now been cleared up.
The so-called "selling his sister to survive" was nothing more than an excuse to call over his sister, the ghost tamer and even the person in charge, to get him out of trouble.
But seeing that smile, Lin Yuan's fist hardened again.
Fearing he might lose control, he took two steps back and said sternly, "Just say what you have to say, but make sure you think it through before you speak."
Peng Fangyuan's smile remained unchanged as he feigned nonchalance and said, "Hey! It's nothing much, it's just that there's been a complicated paranormal incident in Xiaonan City lately. My younger sister is young and inexperienced, and she doesn't understand what's going on. If you have time, could you go and take a look?"
"Peng Fangyuan! Shut up!"
Peng Anxiao glared at Peng Fangyuan with a low growl. Her brother, who should have been scared off, did not back down as before. Instead, he became even more serious. "Little sister, I really think highly of you and Brother Lin. It just so happens that handling paranormal events is also your job. Let Brother Lin give you some advice. It can also give you more opportunities to get to know each other."
"you……"
Peng Anxiao was touched. She knew that her brother was thinking of her, but Peng Fangyuan was just an ordinary person and did not really understand the situation of ghost tamers.
Handling paranormal events?
Without sufficient benefits, a folk ghost-controlling practitioner like Lin Yuan would never make a move, because every action involves using supernatural power and brings him closer to the resurrection of the vengeful ghost.
Do you really think you can get someone to take action against a ghost that might be resurrected just for a few thousand dollars?
If the ghost tamer had a bad temper, they might have turned hostile on the spot, which would have made things even more dangerous.
"Okay, I agree."
Lin Yuan suddenly spoke, which surprised Peng Anxiao, who looked over with a look that clearly said:
Brother, what did you say?
"Haha! I knew my brother was a righteous man. When he heard that I wanted to call you over to curry favor with him, he almost hit me." Peng Fangyuan laughed happily.
This kid is quite self-aware!
"My situation is rather special. The resurrection of the vengeful ghost poses no threat to me, but I'm not sure if I can be of any help. We'll have to see how things go first," Lin Yuan explained.
Peng Anxiao's pupils constricted sharply, and he said in disbelief, "You've already solved the problem of the vengeful ghost's resurrection? How is that possible!"
"I have my own methods, let's get down to business. By the way, before that, I'd like you to help me find out about the person in charge in Dachang City, but it would be best if you didn't mention my situation."
Lin Yuan shook his head.
It's not that he can't be resurrected by a vengeful ghost; it's just that at most, the ghost's resurrection would cause him to die in agony, but it wouldn't stop him from entering the delusional illusion from reality again.
There's no way to talk about this; no one would believe you if you did, and you'd just be seen as crazy.
In reality, he was already being treated like a madman by the doctors and nurses, and he didn't want to be treated like a madman in his delusional fantasy world as well.
"good!"
Peng Anxiao gave Lin Yuan a deep look and agreed.
Clearly, she was very curious about Lin Yuan's hidden demands and would definitely try to find out about him later, but Lin Yuan didn't care.
At worst, we can just leave.
Xiaonan City is far from Dachang City, and they usually have no interaction with each other.
As the person in charge of Xiaonan City, Peng Anxiao could only inquire about news from Dachang City through headquarters and his own hotline operator.
Her operator was also a girl, about the same age as her, with a gentle and sweet voice, and the thoughtfulness of an older sister.
"The person in charge of Dachang City is now... according to the information, Zhao Kaiming, who was only recently transferred to Dachang City. An Xiao, why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Dachang City is quite ordinary now, and there hasn't been an S-level supernatural event like the Starving Ghost incident. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have attracted the attention of Xiaonan City, which is thousands of miles away.
Peng Anxiao's expression remained unchanged as she said, "I heard a friend mention it, so I was just asking."
"I see. By the way, what's the situation at Lakeside Park? Is there any concrete news?" the operator asked with concern.
"There's no progress yet, but it's already locked down. I need time."
After hanging up the phone, Peng Anxiao looked at Lin Yuan and said, "You probably heard it too. What's wrong with you?"
Lin Yuan was somewhat lost in thought, and his initial eagerness to return to Dachang City subsided.
Zhou Zheng, he's still dead!
That man...
Is it really the work of Qin Lao, the conspiracy theorist, that he was sent to teach at Dachang No. 7 Middle School and eventually became the first food source for the growth of the starving ghost, or even the vessel for the starving ghost?
Or was it Zhao Kaiming who caused these effects in order to fulfill his deal with the wishing ghost and resurrect his deceased relatives?
I really want to avenge him!
I just don't know if we can go back in time and pull him out of the timeline of his death.
Yang Jian, who eventually became a god, seems to be able to influence the past and the future. If he reaches that level, could he completely reverse everything?
Lin Yuan's thoughts were in disarray.
Zhou Zheng, his first and currently only friend in the delusional illusion, is dead.
A chilly draft suddenly rose from the closed doors and windows, making Peng Fangyuan shiver. He muttered to himself, "The fan and air conditioner aren't on, so where's the wind coming from?"
Peng Anxiao's expression changed slightly. "Lin Yuan! Calm down!"
"Sorry, I got a little carried away. Let's get down to business. The paranormal incident you mentioned earlier happened at Lakeside Park? Could you elaborate?"
Lin Yuan rubbed his face, quickly regaining his composure.
Anger is useless right now. He needs to calm down, finish what he promised to do, and then... improve his strength!
He was going to ask Zhao Kaiming if he had schemed against Zhou Zheng.
If not, I'd like to ask Mr. Qin to find a suitable answer.
However, his current strength is still too weak. He would have a hard time even facing the wishing ghost behind Zhao Kaiming. He still needs to find a way to improve his strength.
"it is good."
After confirming that Lin Yuan had not experienced any further supernatural outbursts, Peng Anxiao handed over a document. "This is the information on Lakeside Park. Also, since we're going to handle paranormal events together, let's introduce our abilities. My code name is: Ghost Branch!"
