Chapter 1227

After Boss Situ He returned to the mansion last night, father and son must have had a long talk, and Boss Situ Yu had an initial impression of He Lingchuan. Inviting He Lingchuan into the mansion to talk again was not just about expressing gratitude. Everyone present was a smart person, and they knew it well.

So after some polite exchanges, both sides entered the main topic without prior agreement.

Boss Situ Yu asked sideways about the intention of the Yangshan Society entering the Flash Gold Plain, while He Lingchuan cared about the surrounding situation.

In fact, both sides cared about each other's future plans.

"The Yangshan Society wants to do business with us, our family naturally welcomes it!" Boss Situ Yu said decisively, "Your safety here should be fully protected by my army; if you encounter any problems in business, just speak up, and we will think of ways to solve them together."

After talking with his son, he knew that He Lingchuan and the Yangshan Society behind him were not simple.

This young man surnamed He had investigated the Elixir Case in Lingxu City under tremendous pressure; logically speaking, that was an egg hitting a stone. Unexpectedly, the final result was that the stone shattered! Regardless of how much inside information there was, it was a fact that He Lingchuan retreated unscathed. Boss Situ Yu was also a person who had been through big storms and waves, knowing that handling major cases in a big country is like entering a reef in a storm, every step is frightening.

Then there was the Yangshan Society he founded—

Boss Situ Yu originally didn't take this merchant society from outside seriously, letting them open mines here without knowing their roots, all because of his son's persuasion.

But according to the statement brought back by Boss Situ He, the Yangshan Society was very prosperous west of the Ya Nation, with money, food, and people.

This made Boss Situ Yu very tempted.

What is most lacking in war? Money and food.

Statements can be verified. If the Yangshan Society had both, then He Lingchuan was truly a God of Wealth who fell from the sky.

But Boss Situ Yu also knew very clearly that this God of Wealth wouldn't scatter money for nothing unless he saw the value of investing in his side.

He is the landlord, and with his words, the business situation of the Yangshan Society in the local area was opened. From then on, purchasing and operating bulk commodities were not problems, and it was even possible to be more excessive, outputting a little military force.

He Lingchuan toasted to these words immediately.

Then, after the Peng Nation, the power of Yangshan infiltrated a big step into the middle of the Flash Gold Plain.

He knew very clearly what General Boss Situ lacked most and wanted most, but he wouldn't point it out actively, instead taking the opportunity to make a request:

"General Boss Situ is straightforward, so I'll be direct. The Yangshan Society contracted the Rolling Stone Valley mining area, and everything was normal, but half a month ago, we encountered fierce ghosts eating people, and I heard it was a ghost monster from the howling forest in the north. Now the people in Jishi Village are panicked, and the miners don't dare to go down to the mine. We don't know how to solve this trouble yet."

The Boss Situ family's army is a local snake, and they took the merchant society's money, so they should naturally maintain the public security and order in this area.

So it was natural for him to ask Boss Situ Yu to come forward to solve it.

"Not only Jishi Village, seven or eight surrounding villages and towns have also had civilians killed." Boss Situ Yu said this, turned his head and gave two instructions, and a guard went out.

After a while, someone came in again, and it was an old acquaintance of He Lingchuan and the others.

Celestial Master Fu Liushan.

He was dusty, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was startled to see He Lingchuan and the others sitting there.

He Lingchuan smiled: "Master Fu."

Fu Liushan's face twitched: "Hehe, meet again."

Is the frequency of meeting these two people lately too high? Why can I bump into them everywhere? He Lingchuan asked knowingly: "Where did Master Fu come from?"

"From the east." Fu Liushan had just rushed back from the Pixia territory and couldn't even rest, "What about you?"

"Jishi Village." He Lingchuan looked like 'otherwise where could I be', "There was no ghost harassment last night, slept very soundly."

As soon as the words fell, Fu Liushan, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, couldn't help but yawn.

Dong Rui also asked: "Last night, how did you escape from Ju City?"

He Lingchuan made such a big commotion, Ju City must have activated the anti-escape barrier. How did this Celestial Master lead the team to leave safely? Dong Rui was very curious.

Fu Liushan said unhappily: "Don't mention it, a narrow escape!"

City-wide search! His old life almost stayed in the city.

Fortunately, he still had a few bottom-of-the-box methods, hehe, can't say.

"Master Fu, we are talking about the Cotton Village matter." Boss Situ Yu pulled the topic back instantly, "A month ago, the Pixia people sneak attacked Cotton Village, abducting more than 150 people from the whole village, and only two villagers who stayed out escaped. Later, I received a piece of intelligence that the elders of Cotton Village were taken back to the opposite Pixia territory and were brutally killed in less than ten hours. Their remains were buried in the soft mud outside the city, all in one big pit, without even a tombstone."

He Lingchuan and Dong Rui looked at each other, hearing the problem: If the Pixia army wanted to kill people, wouldn't it be happy to kill them on the spot? Why take the Cotton Village captives back and then kill them? Dong Rui even cursed: "Fortunately, Rolling Stone Valley was finally held."

Otherwise, wouldn't Jiang Lishui and the others of the Yangshan Society and the miners have the same fate?

Damn it, that evil ghost from the howling forest really stretched its hand to Yangshan! Boss Situ Yu took a light breath: "Our scouts dug up a few remains and asked Master Fu to check, finding that the murdered Cotton Village villagers had no external injuries except for traces of binding, just a piece of dark blue on their foreheads. This is very similar to the deceased in Jishi Village."

He Lingchuan suddenly realized: "Ghosts eating people."

Fu Liushan also said: "The Pixia army looting Gaopu people back is to offer them as sacrifices to the evil Ghost King of the howling forest!"

He had known this for a long time and only said it now.

"The one who tortured my son is the Xuanlu Ghost King! This evil Ghost King has hooked up with the Pixia people." Boss Situ Yu pressed his temples, "A few months ago, two Pixia armies suddenly appeared on the front line, with about three hundred people each, red light in their eyes, fighting without fear of death, united as one, as if the battle was fierce and no matter how many teammates died, it wouldn't affect them. This kind of sharp knife-like team is very troublesome. We finally wiped out one team with great effort, and the next day Pixia built a new team, equally fearless and strong."

He Lingchuan heard his eyes flicker, such a familiar recipe.

"We have been fighting with the Pixia people for many years, and their combat power is already not weak in the surrounding area, but where did they have such a team before?" Boss Situ Yu shook his head, "This matter goes against common sense, so I invited Master Fu to observe on the front line."

Fu Liushan continued: "These soldiers are like puppets, not knowing life, death, or pain, but they must gather in a legion way and cannot be too far from each other. I went to borrow an ancestral magic weapon and discovered that they were all controlled by a certain leader in the middle of the team, so they pointed where they were told, and advanced and retreated in coordination. Later, General Boss Situ adjusted the fighting method and spent great effort to kill two leaders, only then turning the tide."
