"A favor and a favor?" Zhao Tingyu asked with a smile on his face.
The little old man was a little at a loss. He grinned his dentures and responded stupidly: "King Taishan, you are all big shots. I am just a bad old man. How can I help?"
Zhao Tingyu said nothing, pointed to the curtains and the illusory mourning hall behind, walked slowly to Sun Guoqing, knelt down and said.
"Ghost realm-type supernatural items are horror gadgets inherited from the Republic of China. When opened, a very strange ghost realm will be formed. The hidden properties are several times that of ordinary ghost realms. The trouble is that if you want to close it after opening it, you must activate it. In the mourning hall, one living person sleeps in the coffin, and two living people keep watch. They can only be locked up after they are killed by supernatural objects."
Sun Guoqing was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face changed several times, and finally he showed a pleading look.
"This curtain is both a carrier and a device to imprison a certain ghost. If it is not closed for a certain period of time, the ghost inside will escape, and all the living people wrapped in the entire ghost realm will be buried with it."
"I, I can, I'm still alive, I can die, to help you close it."
"Old man, you seem to have made a mistake. I just want to tell you that we are very determined this time. Either Wanlin City belongs to us, or there is no need for Wanlin City to exist." Zhao Tingyu stood up slowly. For a moment, his figure was extremely oppressive, making Sun Guoqing somewhat breathless.
Sun Guoqing clenched his fists, with mixed emotions on his old expression. The panic couldn't help but spread. He didn't know what to do now.
"You are the person in charge of Wanlin City. You should have official contacts and private channels. I might as well tell you that one-fifth of the entire Wanlin City population has been detained here by us. In this ghost land, they are now shouting at the sky and the earth, and they have no other way out except waiting to die." Zhao Tingyu's expression was extremely cold.
Sun Guoqing raised his head, with tears in his cloudy eyes. He plopped his head on the ground, kowtowed in panic and helplessness, kowtowed hard, and kowtowed vigorously.
"They have nothing to do with all this. Whatever you want, I can talk to you now, get it, or even rob it. You can use me to convict me afterwards. I did all this and it has nothing to do with you."
Zhao Tingyu's eyes were cold and he just looked at him without replying.
"Please, please, please, 800,000 lives. Some of them are fathers who are busy working for their families, some are mothers who have suffered from illnesses due to childbirth, and some are children who have just turned one month old. You can't be so cruel." Sun Guoqing's mood collapsed. Face full of tears.
Zhao Tingyu finally made a move. He took a few steps forward, helped Sun Guoqing up, and even swept the dust for him thoughtfully.
"Uncle Sun, people's hearts are made of flesh. I don't want to be like this, but there's nothing I can do about it. We have met once, and we have a foundation of affection. I understand your thoughts, and you are also considerate of my difficulties. You I also know that I alone have the final say on this innovation. There are nine pairs of eyes staring at me and countless mouths waiting below. I am forced to have no choice."
Sun Guoqing was a little stunned, he didn't understand.
"Uncle Sun, I also want to help you, but after all, I am not the one who speaks, and I am not afraid of your jokes. I have failed a few things recently, and now my right to speak is limited." After Zhao Tingyu said this, he thought for a moment, as if After considering the pros and cons, he said, "Well, I promise you, I will try my best to protect these people, but it's definitely not enough for me alone, so you can help me too."
"How can I help?"
"You are the person in charge of Wanlin City, a veteran of the Ghost Controller Headquarters. This area is now blocked by the Ghost Domain, and the official personnel maintaining order there cannot contact the Ghost Controller Headquarters or the person directly in charge. From now on, in Here, officially, you are the one to speak. As long as you show some skills and raise your voice, when they see that Wanlin City is profitable, I will have a way to deal with it." Zhao Tingyu looked at Sun Guoqing and said, "Uncle Sun , you have to give me an attitude so that I can slowly talk to the boss, don’t you think so?”
Sun Guoqing came to his senses in a daze and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
He is not capable enough to do anything to the ghost domain. If the ghost domain here is really as Zhao Tingyu said, it spreads out from the core of Bianhu, and if the method of closing it requires three people to die, he alone can't do it. Nothing can be done.
No matter, keeping these 800,000 people is just letting them die.
Nothing is greater than human life, Sun Guoqing said to himself.
Prepared to be pushed out to die, Sun Guoqing slowly nodded in response.
"I-I can try, but I'm not sure if it will work."
"Uncle Sun, we have to keep our word. Don't let those people think you've been fooled if something goes wrong. You can only end up harming others and yourself."
Sun Guoqing raised his head helplessly, looking at Zhao Tingyu with his cloudy eyes.
"Do I have a choice? King Tarzan."
Zhao Tingyu chuckled.
"Okay, then go ahead and I'll ask two people to follow you and help you."
"I will help you, but you must keep your word and don't kill any more people."
"Uncle Sun, don't worry, I talk like a spit and a nail." Zhao Tingyu said with a smile: "I will do what I say, don't worry."

In the villa in Daxia City, Shen Lin dialed Zhang Yuan's phone number.
"Captain Shen, it's me. Is it over with you?" Zhang Yuan just answered the call and asked about the situation in Daxia City. There were still fifteen ghosts waiting for Shen Lin to deal with before they left.
Shen Lin twisted his stiff neck and said coldly.
"It's over. Now we can confirm that the resurrection of these evil ghosts is man-made. They are not very scary or harmful. Their main function should be to divert my attention."
"A new situation has emerged in Wanlin City. The movement trajectory of the corpse swamp has changed and is heading this way. We are organizing an evacuation." Zhang Yuan synchronized the existing situation.
Is there any further change in Corpse Swamp? Shen Lin's originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up.
"We followed the incident in Daxia City and caught a tail. We didn't ask any specific questions, but now we can confirm that these things are related to the Reform Association, including the changes in the Corpse Swamp. They tried to force the headquarters to temporarily give up by attracting the evil ghosts. city, and then take advantage of it and take control.”
Zhang Yuan was very clear about the meaning behind these words. After Shen Lin finished speaking, his expression quickly became complicated.
Fierce ghosts are terrifying, and people's hearts are even more evil.
In such a desperate era when terror is resurrected, these people actually try to use ghosts to satisfy their ambitions.
"Don't conflict with the Reform Council unless necessary. The people they came to several times are not good people. The inheritance of the Republic of China should not be underestimated. Each of their Ten Palaces of Yama may be comparable to me, or even surpass me in strength."
"I know, Captain Shen." Zhang Yuan responded solemnly.
