Chapter 432: This is a Fierce Ghost

Wangchen was trembling all over; anyone who could stand right in front of several people in broad daylight and talk to him as if nothing were wrong was definitely a fierce ghost.

He hurriedly grabbed a Talisman from his bag and shouted, "What kind of lonely soul dares to cause trouble in front of this Daoist? Why don't you leave yet?"

When walking the jianghu, one must certainly have something to save one's Life; this Talisman was something he had begged from a master, and usually, unclean things would be scared out of their wits upon seeing it.

However, the A Fu before him was someone who often stayed by Chen Yu's side to do things for Chen Yu.

Moreover, after being blessed by Chen Yu's various Forbidden Dharma, he was a ghost who did not fear ordinary Talismans and could walk under the sunlight.

Although the thing in this fellow's hand was effective against ordinary Spirit Bodies, it seemed a bit insufficient when encountering an old ghost like A Fu.

Amidst this fellow's terrified expression, A Fu grabbed the Talisman in his hand and actually swallowed it in one gulp right in front of him.

"Are there any more?" After swallowing one, A Fu asked, still feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

"Ghost... ghost... ah." Wangchen's forehead was covered in cold sweat; he was so scared that he didn't even dare to move.

"Master, what did you see?" Zhou Qiming felt somewhat bewildered.

Looking at Wangchen's appearance, his face pale with fright, it was obvious he had seen something formidable, but he himself could not see it; he felt that apart from the room being a bit chilly, there was nothing special about it.

"He certainly saw it, otherwise he wouldn't be scared like this." Chen Yu walked up with a chuckle: "Daoist priest? How is my friend here?"

"He, he, he is yours?" Wangchen looked at Chen Yu, somewhat dazed; he wanted to leave, but his legs couldn't even take a step.

"He is my friend. Now I'll give you two paths: either you honestly tell me what you are doing, and I'll let you go, or my friend will follow you—wherever you go, he follows," Chen Yu said leisurely.

Thump. Without even thinking, Wangchen knelt directly on the ground and screamed hysterically: "Expert, I had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai; I was swindling and ended up doing it to you. I am truly sorry."

Wangchen was not stupid; A Fu was a fierce person—no, a fierce ghost—who could swallow an Exorcism Talisman alive.

And he was Chen Yu's man; if Chen Yu could subdue an old ghost of this level, his strength was definitely not something he could compare to. Apart from a pair of Yin-Yang Eyes, he had no real skills, so seeing this thing, he could only flee.

But Chen Yu was a person with real talent and learning; he wouldn't be stupid enough to go head-to-head with such a person.

"Oh, so you admit now that you are a swindler?" Chen Yu stared at Wangchen, unable to help but laugh.

"Expert, I am just a small character, usually walking the jianghu to make a living. It's just that a few days ago I messed up a wealthy man's business, so I came here to lay low," Wangchen begged: "Please, Expert, let this brother go back; I really won't do it again."

"Alright, go back." Chen Yu smiled.

A Fu nodded, turned around, transformed into a wisp of green smoke, and disappeared.

"President Chen, Daoist priest, what exactly is going on here?" Zhou Qiming was still somewhat dazed, not understanding what had happened.

"With an expert like President Chen sitting here, what are you afraid of?" Wangchen finally stood up, trembling, and said with a bow and scrape: "Mr. Chen, there is indeed a problem here. Although I don't have much skill, my eye for things is still quite good."

"Hmm, there is indeed a problem. Take this handicraft of yours back." Chen Yu threw his one-million-dollar Talisman back to him.

Wangchen put away the Talisman with an awkward expression, then slunk away from here.

"He is a swindler?" Zhou Qiming finally reacted.

"Not a swindler, at least he could see there was a problem, but the problem does indeed exist." Chen Yu frowned and said: "Let's look for the cause. President Zhou, how long has this problem been occurring?"

"About a few months, I can't remember clearly, but the problem has been concentrated in the last month or two. Now the atmosphere in the company is very oppressive, and I don't know what's going on," Zhou Qiming said with knitted brows.

"Then, a few months ago, did you move any earth or turn over anything?" Chen Yu asked.

"That would be about half a year ago. We renovated the small park in the back, rebuilt the pavilion, and changed a few stones," Zhou Qiming pondered: "The problem wouldn't be coming from there, would it?"

"Hard to say. Let's go to the back and take a look together," Chen Yu thought for a moment and said.

"Good. Chen Yu, please this way." Zhou Qiming hurriedly took Chen Yu and Yan Roujin and walked outside.

"Why was that Wangchen so scared just now? Did he really see a ghost?" Yan Roujin asked with some confusion.

"I have a good friend; normal people can't see him, but Wangchen can," Chen Yu laughed: "Just now I let my good friend greet him."

"You... really have that thing by your side?" Yan Roujin felt a chill down her spine.

"Yes, but don't be afraid; he is about the same as a normal person," Chen Yu laughed: "Let's see what problem has appeared there first."

The group arrived at a small park in the backyard.

This was a leisure area inside the factory, containing a small fish pond, with a rockery and a pavilion by the pond.

The water in the fish pond was actually wastewater, but Feifan had its own wastewater treatment system, and the treated water could be used to raise fish normally.

The koi in the fish pond were fat and large; this was also an unusual aspect of Feifan, and every time environmental protection officials came to inspect, they had nothing to say.

"The pavilion was renovated, and the stones by the rockery were also changed. Only these places were moved; it wouldn't be because the feng shui here has gone wrong, would it?" Zhou Qiming asked.

"Not necessarily. Let me see." Chen Yu walked over and looked at the surrounding environment.

Suddenly, a stone attracted him; this stone weighed several hundred catties and was placed on one side of the rockery, serving as an artificial landscape.

But a faint energy fluctuation was emanating from the stone.

That's right, the cause was this stone; the energy emitted from this stone was not radiation, but a solid, real energy.

Moreover, this energy resonated with the surrounding environment, forming a magnetic field. Ordinary people could not sense this magnetic field, but after a long time, it would cause dizziness, nausea, and irritability.

It might even lead to people doing incomprehensible things involuntarily, for example, the jumping-off-the-building incidents.

"This stone, is it something you transported from outside?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, it cost me several tens of thousands; they said it was some kind of Wealth Stone," Zhou Qiming exclaimed: "President Chen, the problem wouldn't be with this stone, would it?"

"That's right, the problem is with this stone." Chen Yu nodded.

"Does this stone have radiation?" Zhou Qiming felt a great headache.

"That's not it. The situation with this is complicated, and I can't explain it to you in a short while. Let me have someone haul it away," Chen Yu laughed.

"Good, good, take it away quickly." Zhou Qiming waved his hands repeatedly.

He had spent quite a bit of effort when he bought this stone, but now he wished this stone were as far away as possible; after all, this stone was extremely sinister.

Chen Yu thought for a long time; the only ones who could handle these things were the research department, so he called Bai Zhan directly.

Upon hearing there was something good to study, Bai Zhan immediately became spirited. In less than half an hour, the Academy of Sciences sent people to haul the stone away.

Chen Yu and Yan Roujin also returned, but since Bai Muyu was about to get off work, Chen Yu waited for her at the coffee shop at the entrance of the Academy of Sciences.

Only, unexpectedly, Yu Jing was already here.

"You're here?" Yu Jing pushed aside the book in front of her with a smile.

"Are you here waiting for me?" Chen Yu sat down in front of her.

"Hehe, my precious daughter has been targeted by someone, so I certainly have to pay some attention," Yu Jing said with a faint smile.

"She is not your daughter; you need to get that clear. Besides, she is an adult herself; she has her own choices and her own thoughts." Chen Yu frowned; this woman was truly like a Yin Soul that wouldn't dissipate.

"She is not my biological daughter, but all these years I have treated her as my own." Yu Jing said leisurely, "Chen Yu, these past few days I have used all my connections to investigate you thoroughly."

Yu Jing placed a document in front of Chen Yu, a thick stack. Chen Yu opened the document and took a look, only to see his own photo printed on the first page.

His background, birth, and experiences before his rise to prominence were all clearly printed out. It seemed the connections Yu Jing found were extraordinary to be able to pull his files out completely.

"You investigated me?" Chen Yu locked his brows; he did not like the feeling of being watched.
