Cao Yang, Lin Bei, and Li Leping came here carrying the head of the manor owner. Their task tonight was not easy. They had to trade with the people organized by the king to exchange the head for the body of captain Zhang Ji.
But Yang Jian said at the previous captain meeting that even if the deal failed and Zhang Ji's body was abandoned, the manor owner's head would never be returned to the hands of the king's organization.
In other words, the three of them were not here to complete the deal, but to retrieve Zhang Hua's body.
"Here we go, this is where the transaction takes place."
As a cool breeze blew by, the three people arrived at a pier.
The pier was deserted, not even a ship docked.
Because before they arrived, orders had been received here to seal off the entire dock and disperse all nearby people away from the area, so as not to affect the next actions.
"The person in charge of Xiangjiang doesn't seem to be here. Is he afraid that he doesn't want to come, or has something unexpected happened to him on our way here?" Cao Yang glanced around and said.
Lin Bei Moruo said with a bald head: "It is not easy to be the person in charge of Xiangjiang. I have read the files before. There are frequent supernatural incidents in this place. The person in charge is extremely dangerous. The person in charge has to be replaced almost every three months until the headquarters is cruel.
, transferred Su Fan, who was originally qualified to nominate the captain, and the matter got a little better. I met him at the last captain meeting, but I didn’t have much interaction with him.”
"That's right."
Cao Yang nodded and said: "Su Fan was the last person in charge transferred to Xiangjiang. All the people in charge before him died, and he is the only one who is still alive. Originally, the headquarters wanted to transfer Feng Quan here, but after considering
I gave up the idea after going to Yang Wen's side."
"Forget it if Su Fan doesn't come. Maybe he has noticed the danger and hid in advance. I heard that his supernatural power can sense death in advance, so he can survive every supernatural incident. This ability is a bit
Like that spiritual boy who can predict the future." Lin Bei smiled: "It seems that we are not optimistic about this trend."
"The transaction will start in five minutes, so get ready." Li Leping, who had been silent for a long time, said. The two of them looked at him with some surprise in their eyes, as if they just remembered that there was another person beside them.
"Who are you? It can't be Li Leping, right?" Lin Bei asked.
Li Leping: "..."
Lin Bei smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I can't remember your appearance. Every time I see you, it's like looking at a stranger. I didn't know but thought it was a ghost that suddenly wandered nearby, which surprised me a little.
Although I know that Yang Jian asked you to come here because he wanted to use this characteristic of yours to do something, it does bring us some trouble sometimes."
"If the enemy calls me Li Leping in front of us, we won't be able to recognize him, and we won't know whether to take action or stop. You must know that even a moment of hesitation in a fight may kill someone. Don't get me wrong.
I didn’t mean anything against you, I was just discussing the matter.”
Li Leping said expressionlessly: "If we really encounter the situation you mentioned, just take action directly. If the other party dies, it means he is fake."
"So confident, worthy of being a veteran captain." Lin Bei gave a thumbs up.
Pu Yang said: "Okay, now is not the time to chat, the time is almost up, and the other party should be coming."
Lin Bei and Li Leping also knew the importance of the transaction, so they stopped talking and became vigilant.
The time to trade is coming soon.
At this moment, a light suddenly lit up on the dark sea not far from the pier, and a small fishing boat swayed towards this side.
As soon as the boat appeared, the three people's eyes immediately focused on it.
soon.
The boat docked, and a forty-five-year-old man came out of the cabin. This man was not a ghost master, but an ordinary person.
"What are you gangsters doing there? Come over and help." The middle-aged captain shouted loudly.
Cao Yang's face suddenly darkened. He was not angry because the captain called him a street boy, but because there was only such an ordinary person on this ship, and there was no one from the King's Organization at all. He might have been tricked.
"Let's go and take a look." Lin Bei said helplessly, stroking his bald head.
The three people walked over and used some strength to help the boatman stop the boat.
"A foreigner gave me a piece of cargo and asked me to come to the dock to trade with you. The item was on the ship and it was heavy and I couldn't move it. The foreigner said that you would help unload the cargo," the boatman said.
"I'll go." Lin Bei jumped on the boat, then came to the cabin, and sure enough he saw a box.
The box was very heavy and made of gold, so it was impossible for ordinary people to move it.
But this was no problem for Lin Bei. He lifted the heavy box with one hand and jumped directly onto the dock.
"It's so powerful to be able to carry such a big box up." The boatman was surprised, thinking that Lin Bei might be a monk practicing martial arts, so he looked at it repeatedly.
Lin Bei ignored the boatman's words, but stared at the box: "Will Zhang Ji's body be inside? If it is really inside, then the king's organization would be too honest this time and actually take the initiative to return it.
dead body."
"You'll know after you open it." Li Leping came over and opened the heavy box.
immediately.
The smell of rotting corpses hit the nostrils, making people almost want to vomit.
There is really a corpse in the box, but this corpse has been highly decomposed, and the body is shriveled. The internal organs and bones seem to have been hollowed out, leaving only a mutilated human skin, but it can still be determined by some physical characteristics.
It was clear that this person was Zhang Ji.
"Damn it." Cao Yang couldn't help but curse.
The people from the King's organization had obviously stripped away all the supernatural power from Zhang Ji's body, leaving only some insignificant and mutilated limbs.
"Put it away, take it back and cremate it, and find a place to bury it. After all, Zhang Ji is also the captain of the headquarters, so it is a good thing to get the body back." Lin Bei said.
Cao Yang nodded.
At this time, the shipman said again: "Hey, the items have been inspected, where are your items? I still have to send the goods back, and the other party is still waiting to receive the goods."
"Where is the other party waiting to receive the goods?" Cao Yang asked directly.
The boatman didn't hide anything and pointed in the direction of the sea: "There is a cargo ship over there on the sea, and the foreigner is waiting for me to go back and deliver the goods."
"Want to follow?"
Lin Bei grinned: "Maybe it's a trap. Leaving the dock is equivalent to going to the other party's territory. Then we will be passive. Just as the other party doesn't dare to come here to trade, aren't they also worried about an ambush on our side? I
I advise you to give up this idea."
"Then what's the point of the other party's deal? It's just to return Zhang Ji's body. They know full well that we can't return the head of the manor owner so easily." Cao Yang said.
"Maybe it was just to deceive us and make us spend a lot of energy to deal with this transaction. The previous analysis by Lu Zhiwen and Yang Jian was very correct, so they asked three of us to come over instead of all the captains. I guess
Something must be happening in Dadong City right now." Lin Bei said.
Cao Yang nodded, thinking that this should be the case. It seemed that the owner of the manor had been given up by the other party.
"It looks like our trip was in vain." Li Leping said.
Cao Yang stopped talking, just threw the prepared box onto the boat, and then said: "This is the thing for the transaction, take this thing back to that person."
The boatman didn't care what was in the box and immediately sailed away from the dock.
"What's in there?" Lin Bei didn't know what was in it, so he asked curiously.
"It can't be the manor owner's head anyway." Cao Yang did not disclose the specific contents.
Lin Bei saw this and didn't ask any more questions.
"Go back, don't waste time here anymore." Li Leping said.
Cao Yang and Lin Bei thought it was right, so they immediately turned around and left the dock without waiting any longer.
Since you have been deceived, there is nothing you can do about it. After all, this escape is inevitable.
However, just as they turned to leave, suddenly, Shanyang's cell phone rang.
A text message was sent.
"Be careful, you are in danger." The name of the sender of the text message is Su Fan, who is also the current person in charge of Xiangjiang.
"Um?"
Cao Yang frowned. At this time, Su Fan reminded himself that he was in danger. It was inappropriate. This transaction was clearly a scam. There was not even a single figure on the dock. The other party had no intention of showing up at all. The three of them just ran away in vain.
A trip.
"Su Fan reminded us that there is danger and asked us to be careful. It's strange." He put down the phone and continued to talk about the content of the text message.
Lin Bei also pondered: "It's indeed strange. No danger has been found so far. It's normal here. Let's not worry about it for now. Since others have reminded it, it must make sense. After all, it is right to listen to others' advice. After all, that Su
Nothing can harm us."
"That makes sense, let's leave now."
Cao Yang did not hesitate, and used Ghost Domain to take two people to prepare to return to Dadong City immediately.
The cold wind blew by, and the three people disappeared immediately.
However, soon, the three of them appeared on the dock again.
"Something went wrong. We seem to be trapped. There is a supernatural force affecting the area. We can't leave here."
Cao Yang's expression changed suddenly. He discovered the clue only at this moment and had no idea before.
"There is indeed a problem. The position of the lights in the distance has almost not changed, and the clouds in the sky have not moved. Except for the boatman just now, there is not a single living person nearby."
Lin Bei's eyes also darkened: "And I'm sure it wasn't like this at the beginning. This change should have happened just now, and it was still unconsciously. It seems that the other party has supernatural powers that affect reality, somewhere.
It instantly changed us from reality to a supernatural place, which is very similar to my mirror world."
"Don't be nervous. The other person can be replaced, and I can also be replaced. I will take you to the mirror world, and then return to reality through the mirror world, but this will take some time."
"It seems that the other party will not give us this time." Li Leping said calmly.
now.
On the containers around the dock, cold figures began to appear suddenly, as if they had invaded from another world, without any warning at all.
"Yes, I caught three big fish in this net, which is worthy of my personal action. If I can kill you here, you will no longer be able to resist." A deep voice echoed.
In the middle of the pier, a figure also appeared. The man was holding an old bookcase. He was dressed like a preacher and had a strange voice, which gave people an extremely dangerous feeling.
Cao Yang's eyes narrowed. Although he did not know this person, there was no doubt that this person was definitely a very powerful enemy and was 100% a king in the king's organization.
But with the opponent's cowardly style, it is absolutely impossible to send out only one person.
Lin Bei suddenly noticed something and immediately turned around to look.
Behind the three people, there was darkness. At the end of the darkness, there was a scary old woman in a Western dress standing there. And as time went by, this scary old woman was getting closer and closer.
.
Just taking one look at that scary old woman, a feeling of suffocation appeared in my heart.
Obviously, this is also a top ghost controller with very terrifying strength, and he is probably also a king.
"If the other party wants to take action, there should be more than two people." Cao Yang tensed up and looked at a container at the dock.
It seemed that just as he had guessed, a ray of light came from nowhere at this moment. The light fell on the container and presented a blurry picture, like an old black-and-white movie being shown.
But in the black and white movie screen, a figure gradually emerged and became clearer.
"The person projected is probably also a king." Although Cao Yang only took a glance, he already had a guess in his mind.
The missionary spoke again: "Originally, we had no intention of taking action in this transaction. Unfortunately, your captain showed up elsewhere. I don't think they will come to support us. For us, this transaction is an opportunity. Although you are here today."
Wan's sudden counterattack caused us to lose some very important members, but if we can kill your three captains, it will be worth the effort."
"I see, are you prepared?" Cao Yang immediately understood the other party's plan.
These people must be implementing other plans. If the other plans go well, it means that the headquarters attaches great importance to this transaction and has transferred most of the captains over. In this way, the other party will not show up during the transaction and avoid conflicts, thus making the transaction more successful.
Get the benefits elsewhere.
But now it seems that the King's organization's plan elsewhere seems to have been blocked. Other captains rushed to stop it, causing serious losses. Therefore, they want to win this deal.
As long as Cao Yang, Lin Bei, and Li Leping are killed, the losses in other places will be nothing, and there will still be some profit.
"It's really awesome. You can bet on both sides and you won't lose either way. But if you dare to do this, it means you must have dispersed your actions. The other plan must also involve other king-level ghost hunters, otherwise it will not be successful.
"Yes." Lin Bei touched his bald head.
"Since we are operating separately, it means that the number of your growing number of king-level ghost masters will definitely not exceed seven. Can these people take down our three captains?"
"Any plan has risks. I have evaluated your strength and it should be fine. As for the other side, I have asked them to retreat, as long as they are not overtaken by your captain."
The missionary replied seriously. He spoke Chinese very well, and he could not tell that he was a foreigner at all.
