I use ghosts as cash machines

Chapter 88: Evil Squad
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.

The unknown is often the most terrifying thing.

If ghosts and other invisible and intangible things really appear one day to subvert your cognition, do you really have the courage to face them?

The young man in front of him, who had just finished the college entrance examination, said that he would fight to the death with the ghost that harmed his brother.

There was no fear or retreat in his eyes.

I admire him for this. After all, I made a big fuss when I found out I had the ability to see ghosts and gossips.

"At first, I found a very famous Feng Shui family in the circle, the Qiu family. I promised to build them a luxurious palace-style Taoist temple in a place with strong incense."

"And then you invited the old man from the Qiu family who was said to have retired?" I continued his conversation.

"Yes, and no." Chu Yucheng raised his head slightly: "I invited the entire Qiu family."

This was said boldly and with great confidence.

"It is true that the head of the Qiu family has retired from the underworld. However, in addition to the head of the Qiu family, there are many honorary elders. The Feng Shui model of Parkson Mall was designed by them together."

"So the elders of the Qiu family just showed up to show their faces and support you guys, right?"

Chu Yucheng: "You can put it this way. In business, whoever has a higher position and more experience will always be more persuasive."

I secretly complained in my heart: Okay, okay, you have money, and things that can be solved with money are trivial in your eyes.

Complaints are welcome, but that's human nature after all, and he did succeed in doing things this way.

"Unfortunately, I didn't get the answer I wanted most."

Chu Yucheng took a deep breath.

"Those old foxes, every time I asked them if ghosts really existed, they told me that if I believed in them, they existed, but if I didn't, they didn't. I said I believed in them, and they started telling me that if I believed in them, I wouldn't ask such questions."

I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

I was outshined by Chu Yucheng in every aspect today, and when I heard that he was humiliated, I felt a little gloating.

I was gradually able to relax a little: "What happened next?"

"Later, I asked the Qiu family for advice on Feng Shui and mystical arts. I started from the basics, first the simple Feng Shui knowledge, and then the feeling of 'Qi'. How can one feel such an ethereal thing? Most of them kept it to themselves and didn't want to teach me."

I curled my lips in disapproval. "You are being narrow-minded. Drawing Qi into the body is the basis. I have already successfully drawn Qi into the body, and this morning I also opened up my Ren and Du meridians. Since you can't feel the vitality of heaven and earth, it means you are not destined to this path."

Chu Yucheng nodded thoughtfully: "Well, the elders of the Qiu family also said so. I am just being petty."

He admitted his mistake quite quickly and sincerely.

Favorability +1.

I couldn't help but say a few more words: "People in the same profession can sense each other. I met Mr. Qiu the other day. The aura around him was different from that of ordinary people. He was a Feng Shui master who had already achieved Taoism."

Chu Yucheng said: "So he can also see ghosts, right?"

"I don't know about this. Ordinary people don't have Yin-Yang eyes, so they need to practice, and then they need to cooperate with the mental methods and secret manuals of various sects, use the vitality of heaven and earth, or open the Dharma eyes, or draw talismans, or make magic tools, arrange formations, etc. This depends on the inheritance and foundation of the sect.

But since the Qiu family is the most prestigious Feng Shui family you can find, they should have secrets like the Dharma Eye."

Chu Yucheng: "So, you have the Yin-Yang Eyes?"

I realized then that what I had just said had already given me away, so I explained, "After the car accident, I became a vegetable, and when I woke up, I found that I could see ghosts."

Chu Yucheng: "Are you scared?"

I didn't expect him to ask such a question. "It was scary at first, but now I'm used to it and can even catch a few ghosts for fun."

"Catch some ghosts... for fun?" Chu Yucheng questioned: "There is one thing I have wanted to ask you for a long time."

I paused and said, "I'm afraid today's temptation also stems from this."

Chu Yucheng smiled and said, "Not too stupid."

The driver tried to smooth things over, "The young master still basically believes in you, but he doesn't quite understand why you would do this if you can't gain anything by catching ghosts in the mall. Also, I heard that Miss Su helped the eldest master before, and she also helped without any reason. We just want to know Miss Su's motives for doing these things."

I still stick to what I said before: "I said before that by doing these things, I can accumulate merit."

Chu Yucheng: "This reason is not enough."

"Why not?" I was curious.

"Ms. Su, according to my investigation, you went out to look for a job the day after you came to City X. So you are not the kind of person who would do charity if you can't even get enough to eat. At least, before the debt is paid off, the reason of accumulating merit is not enough for you to waste your time." Chu Yucheng smiled.

I really can't deny this, because he is right.

I was speechless.

I couldn't tell him that if I could resolve the ghost's obsession, I could also make money.

If he asked me who would give me the money, how would I answer?

I opened my mouth: "Everyone has secrets."

Chu Yucheng nodded: "You are right."

No further questions were asked.

I said sincerely: "You can trust me, our goals are the same. I want Yin Zongyang to be brought to justice, and you want to avenge your brother."

Chu Yucheng continued to nod: "Well, I believe you."

I didn't understand: "Do you believe me now? You just threatened me to lose my job."

Chu Yucheng: "If you were an undercover sent by Yin Zongyang to bury next to me, you wouldn't cry out of anxiety if I threatened you with losing your job."

I rolled my eyes. "When did I start crying? Besides, if I pretended to cry, wouldn't you have made a mistake in judgment?"

Chu Yucheng shook his head: "You are a good person, quite righteous."

I coughed twice, and the corners of my mouth curled up due to the praise, and my favorability level increased by +1.

Chu Yucheng continued: "I just feel like you're not that smart. You probably can't do something like pretending to cry."

The corners of my mouth are turned down, favorability -2.

"So this is the result of your test today?" I said unhappily.

Chu Yucheng: "Welcome to join the evil-eliminating team, Miss Su Cancan!"

"Anti-evil team?"

Chu Yucheng nodded: "There are currently two people in the anti-evil team, me and Uncle Xu. If you join, it will be three people! The first target is of course Yin Zongyang."

Well, how should I put it, this name is a bit childish, but I... actually like it a little bit.

"Okay, I'll join." I raised my head and said, "There's something I've been curious about for a long time. Who are you, Uncle Xu?"
