Chapter 571

The old lady walked out from the room, holding a black bag . “These are the talismans that I have no use for . If you’re going to find that ghost, then of course, you need as much help as you can get…”

The old lady shoved him the bag . “I’ll give them all to you . “

Looking at the bag of talisman, Chen Ge’s lips twitched . “Granny, how much have you spent to buy so many talismans?”

“The price is not important; the important thing is that they’re effective . “

Chen Ge had a good impression of the old lady, and he did not want to see her getting scammed anymore . Thus, he planned to help her . “Granny, can you introduce me to the man who sold you these talismans?”

“Of course, I’ll bring you to see him when you come back . He is a powerful sensei even though he might not look like it . Actually, those who are really gifted are often hated by the world . “

The more Chen Ge heard the old lady’s story, the more he confirmed that she had been scammed . After getting the person’s address, Chen Ge left with the bag .

After leaving the residential area, Chen Ge took a look at the picture that he had snapped with his phone . The words on the pages were hard to read . Instead of saying that they were Chinese characters, they looked more like symbols .

Who might be able to understand this?

Chen Ge closed the album and called the theme park . It was already afternoon when he sent Wen Wen home, and he was held off by some other incidents . Since he was not at the Haunted House, Xu Wan followed his orders and closed when the sun fell .

Ol Zhou and Duan Yue performed perfectly . There were no accidents, and Chen Ge sighed in relief .

I have to reward Ol’ Zhou and Duan Yue somehow . They say that they have no requests for anything, but I can see that Ol’ Zhou likes Duan Yue . Maybe I can help him pursue her . And about Duan Yue… all girls should have a dream of stardom . I can promise to make her the main character when I want to shoot the movie to fulfill the author’s dream .

After ending the call, Chen Ge put the old lady’s stuff into his backpack and called a taxi to get to Eastern Jiujiang Dam .

The mission for the special visitor, Wen Wen, was not triggered . Where was the problem? Is it because I didn’t let Wen Wen get close to any water-related attractions?

The girl’s aunt had warned Chen Ge about letting the girl go near water . Chen Ge would not have harmed the girl just for a mission, and that might be why the mission had not been triggered .

When Chen Ge arrived at the dam, the sun was already falling . Opening the window, he could clearly see that this place was much colder than the city .

The driver looked at Chen Ge and demanded, “25 RMB please . “

“25? So expensive? Do you think I haven’t been here before?” Chen Ge had been looking around when the driver asked for such an expensive fare .

“Based on the timer, it doesn’t really cost that much, but no one is willing to come to Eastern Jiujiang Dam these days . There have been a series of accidents over the past month, so everyone raises the price whenever a passenger wants to come to Eastern Jiujiang at night . Furthermore, I brought you here alone, and I definitely won’t get any passengers on my way back to the city . “

The driver was young, and he leaned on the wheel impatiently . “Hurry up . Night will fall soon, and the roads will be even harder to navigate . This place is not that safe at night . “

“You even know that?” Chen Ge studied the driver . “Looks like your company’s safety lesson to its employees is still lacking . You don’t seem to recognize me . “

The driver looked at Chen Ge with a frown . “Who are you?”

“If you don’t want any accident to happen, then you’ll charge me a fair price . You’ve found the wrong person to scam today . ” Chen Ge leaned back on the chair . “After all, I’m not in a hurry; I can waste my time here with you all day . However, you have to be careful—Eastern Jiujiang is really messy at night . Anything can happen . “

The driver was familiar with the city more than normal people—cabbies travelled through the city daily and knew many things not common to others . Once Chen Ge said that, the driver’s face dropped . He had run into a thug who was more shameless than he was, and to make matters worse, he knew that Chen Ge was right . Why would a man carrying a backpack go to a countryside dam at night?

The more he studied Chen Ge, the more unsettled he was, but he did not back down . “Everyone is raising their price… but fine, I’ll just take twenty from you . “

“I’ll only give you the amount on the timer . This is for your own good, because when you spend the money earned illegally, you’ll run into ghosts . ” The two continued to argue for some time . The sky darkened . Chen Ge did not get out of the car . Instead, he pulled out a large amount of paper talismans from his bag and started to study them . He ignored the driver, who tried to reason with him .

In the driver’s eyes, Chen Ge had transformed from a bad person to a mad person . Which normal person would carry so many talismans in his bag?

“Fine, consider me unlucky today . ” The driver relented .

“You’re still young . Fix your attitude a bit . You might run into me again if you continue to drive the night shift . “

After paying the fare, Chen Ge got out of the car . Chen Ge’s last sentence echoed in the driver’s mind, and a chill crawled up the driver’s spine; he felt like he had just been cursed . He cursed under his breath like he was afraid of being overheard by Chen Ge and then drove away .

“Still young and rusty, probably not yet worn down by society . Luckily, he ran into someone like me, who has a soft temperament . This is a good thing for him . ” Chen Ge grabbed his backpack and walked to the dam .

Eastern Jiujiang dam was a small dam and was close to Eastern Jiujiang, so people had been visiting this place to go swimming and fishing . However, starting from a certain period, the people had stopped visiting .

Standing by the dam, Chen Ge took out his phone for the light . He realized that there was a flash of light not far from him . Chen Ge used his Yin Yang Vision to realize that there were two people fishing by the bank . One was sitting, and the other stood behind him . The one standing probably thought it was boring, so he slithered away .

I just said that this place is deserted, but there’re two fishers around .

Chen Ge wanted to find out more about the dam, so these fishers should be a good opening . He jogged toward the fisher . The fisher was fully focused and did not even turn his head . He stared at the luminous fishing bobber on the water . The night slowly swallowed up the sky, and the small pin of light was conspicuous on the surface of the water .

Minutes later, the luminous bobber submerged, and the immobile man revealed a smile . “Finally, the fish has taken the bait . ”
