The matter of opening the watch temporarily falls on Taozi's shoulders. As for the matters of searching for people and catching ghosts, let the senior brothers Hui'an and Jing'an take care of it.
What I am more concerned about now is who is the real buyer behind the mushrooms.
When Yang Hu was not busy, I pulled him to my side and gave him a few brief instructions.
Duan Xu is half human and half ghost, so I can't trust him completely, but I have promised to give him freedom, so I can only let Yang Hu follow him secretly.
Tell me any suspicious signs, and the missing ones are important clues.
Everyone was busy with their own things, and as the day passed, it seemed that nothing happened.
At night, Yang Hu hurried to my room.
He took out a small notebook from his arms and recounted all the details word by word.
When he finished reading, he smiled and said, "It's a bit like a running account."
I waved my hand quickly: "This is what I need."
"Then, do you hear anything suspicious?"
I couldn't help but smack the Yahuazi: "You said that Duan Xu has been walking around the streets today and met a few people in the process, but he only said a few words and then nothing happened again."
"I think our goal has been achieved."
"How to say?"
I opened the notebook on the table and read every word carefully: "He is spreading news to the outside world today."
"To him, we are devils and he wants to get out of here right now."
After seeing the last article, I closed the book again and analyzed: "Duan Xu is helping himself, but he is only helping us indirectly."
Yang Hu frowned slightly: "I'm worried that he will leak the secret."
"You're too worried, brother." I smiled and reassured, "This kid is scared out of his wits. He doesn't dare to call for reinforcements."
Regarding this statement, Yang Hu nodded doubtfully, obviously still having doubts.
But I have a sense of proportion.
In this long journey, I have seen people who gave in, people who were beaten and frightened, and even soldiers who perished together.
Just like those people who carried sulfuric acid bottles before, their eyes were full of enthusiasm, and their excitement even made their eyes red.
But Duan Xu is not. He no longer dares to look directly at me. This is a symbol of being scared.
After Yang Hu went back, I walked slowly to the backyard.
Jing'an has been here for a whole day, from day to now, still playing around in front of the altar.
I was watching here in trance when a voice suddenly sounded from behind me.
"Headmaster."
Someone suddenly showed up, which really startled me.
I turned around and saw that it was none other than Hui'an.
Hui'an was wearing a bulging robe, obviously prepared.
I took a few glances and understood immediately, and said with a smile, "Are you ready to work?"
Hui'an patted his trousers and said, "Young men must keep your word!"
"Okay, then you're busy."
Hui'an quickly blocked my way and said, "I happened to meet him, so why don't you stop here and take a look."
"Huh?" I suddenly felt a little confused: "The law should not be exposed, and the skills should not be passed on. Isn't this appropriate?"
"No, no, no." Hui'an waved his hand quickly: "You can still be fair here, so that it won't be difficult to define."
Tsk, Hui'an is so full of desire to win.
At this time, I also had a plan in mind. Since Hui'an wanted to win so much, I would definitely help Jing'an when necessary.
The energy in Hui'an's body is still there, and once he raises his head again, he might even crush me.
I sat directly on the big rock next to me: "Since you can let me watch it, I will definitely be a qualified referee."
A simple altar was quickly set up in front of Hui'an. Unlike Jing'an, Hui'an only had a set of five-color flags and an ever-burning lantern in front of him.
This set of equipment is basically the same as when we first played against each other.
Hui'an sat cross-legged and crossed his hands to make secrets, each time bringing with it the sound of whistling wind.
"sieve!"
With a flick of his wrist, the ever-bright lamp in front of him suddenly burst into flames.
The flame was large and drop-shaped, about the size of my thumb. What shocked me was that the flame was not disturbed by the wind.
It is not difficult for a charlatan to light a fire from afar.
The fake Taoist priests used phosphorus powder, and the flames they ignited were just like ordinary ones.
The true Taoist priests use the true energy to light the lamps. What is burning is not the candle, but the true energy in the body, so it can remain in a state of being indestructible by the wind.
Hui'an is showing off his skills to me. He wants to tell me that he will have the answer before his energy is exhausted.
