As she spoke, the ghost mother flicked her finger, and a black line shot directly into the body of the man in black.
The man in black suddenly trembled, his face turned livid, as if something had strangled his neck, and he fell to the ground and struggled in pain.
But after a moment, the man in black stopped struggling and became motionless.
"Thank you, Lady Ghost Mother, for your help."
The ghost fled, the man in black died, and the crisis in the exhibition hall was relieved. I immediately walked over and thanked the ghost mother.
The rest of the people also knelt down behind me, not daring to say a word.
Naturally, they didn't know the identity of the Ghost Mother, and they just regarded her as the god who saved them.
The ghost mother waved her hand and smiled lightly.
"Mr. Cheng, you're welcome. Mengmeng asked me to tell you that I look forward to seeing you again in the future."
After saying that, the ghost mother's figure was introduced into the black mist and disappeared.
The fog dissipated and clarity returned to the exhibition hall. Only the corpses of Dong Wanhai and the man in black were still lying on the ground, silently.
I called the fourth sister and asked her to help deal with things here, and then left the exhibition with Lonnie and Gao Nantian.
I didn't pay attention to how this matter was handled in the end. I just knew that the customers who witnessed the shocking moment in the exhibition hall that day did not talk about their experiences.
Instead, many comments appeared on the Internet, telling how Dong Wanhai planned to kill innocent workers and assassinate Goldman Sachs Group, causing people to agree.
As a result, Goldman Sachs Group's reputation was quickly reversed, and it once again firmly occupied the leading position in the jewelry market.
After a day's rest, Lonnie and I called Bai Ze and An Jingjing to go to the Goldman Sachs Group exhibition site again to deal with the monster in the swimming pool.
This time, in addition to a few of us, Gao Nantian also came with us. Behind him, there was also a construction team.
At my instruction, the workers inserted the pipe connected to the water pump into the deep water. As the water pump was powered on, the gears rotated at high speed, and the water level in the pond began to decrease rapidly.
After a while, the bottom of the pond, which was less than one meter long, hit the bottom. I asked the workers to step aside and look for the monster in the mud at the bottom of the pond.
In addition to a large area of silt at the bottom of the pool, there are also many lotus leaf rhizomes near the southeast corner, accumulating a pool of water.
And here is the only possible hiding place for the monster.
I walked directly to the southeast corner and condensed the thunder and fire talisman in my palm. No matter whether the monster was hiding here or not, I was ready to test it first.
But at this moment, there was a sudden whooshing sound, and a black shadow emerged from the mud at the bottom of the pool, jumped into the air, and pounced towards me.
boom!
I turned around quickly and was struck by a thunderbolt.
The monster let out a wail and fell to the ground.
I quickly ran over, and then I realized that there was no monster on the ground. There was only a black, one-foot-long loach that had been roasted!
Could it be that this is the monster's true form?
"Mr. Gao, let's add an extra dish to our meal today, braised loach!"
With that said, I picked up the loach and handed it into Gao Nantian's hand, then turned and left.
In order to express his gratitude, Gao Nantian transferred a huge sum of money to me, this time it was directly transferred to my account.
I gave part of it to Fourth Sister as funds for the development of the association, part to Hu Hua to use to expand the incense and candle shop, and only left one third as a contingencies.
After that, Lonnie and I went to the village where the workers were killed and handed over the compensation to the families of the workers. This matter was finally concluded.
In the next two days, not much happened, and there was still no movement in the Liao family. Through Dahu, I learned that Liao Wuya was still living in the hospital and was being protected at all levels.
Even Dahu doesn't know whether his condition has recovered.
As for Liao Xian'er, she is still in confinement and I cannot contact her directly.
The old lady of the Liao family didn't come to my door, so naturally I wouldn't care about anything else.
I have been practicing Qi refining in the incense shop. On the morning of the third day, the fourth sister called me.
"President Cheng, the traces of the fourth uncharacterized piece have been found."
The fourth sister told me that after day and night deductions by Master Kong An and several elders of the Tianlian sect, we finally caught a trace of the fourth uncharacterized card.
"Dui Gua, swamp land!"
What Master Kongan sent over was only this short sentence.
Dui Gua is due west, that is to say, from our current position, looking for a place with a swamp in the west, is the fourth uncharacterized place?
I quickly asked Akang to buy a map and searched it for a while. Sure enough, there was a swamp three hundred miles west of Fengdu called Yunmengzhize!
There is no doubt that this should be our next move.
After hanging up the phone, I was about to gather everyone to discuss the plan to go to Yunmengzhi, but at this moment, Mr. Hu San also sent a message.
It is also the fourth message without characters, only one short sentence.
"Zhen Gua, the source of the forest."
Zhen Gua points to the east, the source of the forest, which should be where the large forest is located.
Taking out the map, there is indeed a virgin forest two hundred miles east of Fengdu, called the Forest of the Sunset.
Then the question arises. What Master Kongan and Master Hu San said are two opposite directions. Who is right?
I contacted Mr. Hu San directly and expressed my questions.
Hearing that the direction deduced by Tianlian Sect was completely different from his own, Mr. Hu San was also a little surprised.
"Master, who should I listen to? Who can be wrong between you and the Tianlian sect?"
After Mr. Hu San pondered for a moment, he quickly gave the answer.
"Both the results deduced by the Tianlian Sect and me are correct."
What? I was stunned for a moment and had no idea what Mr. Hu San meant by saying that.
They are obviously two opposite directions, but Mr. Hu San said that his and Tianlian sect's deductions were correct. What does this mean?
"Could it be that there are two blank characters this time?"
After thinking for a few seconds, I asked tentatively.
"Cheng Yi, I saw you right, you are smart enough."
Mr. Hu San chuckled: "If I guess correctly, there are two blank characters appearing at the same time this time!"
That makes sense.
Two uncharacters appeared at the same time, one in the Yunmeng Ze and one in the Sunset Forest, but the ones deduced by Mr. Hu San and the Tianlian Sect were not the same.
"There are two characters without characters, which one should we look for first?"
I asked Mr. Hu San again.
“Start near and then far, let’s start from the east.”
Mr. Hu San said calmly: "Whether it is the wizard group or other sects, it is impossible for them to get the news earlier than we estimate. It is estimated that they will get the news within a day or two."
"Get ready as soon as possible. If you can get the uncharacterized one from the east, go to the west immediately and try to get the fifth uncharacterized one!"
