The crooked way can also lead to heaven

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Ran's casino had already begun operations. At first, there were only a few ghosts visiting, but as ghosts continued to come back to promote, the underground casino gradually became full almost every day.

There is an endless stream of people coming to borrow money. The daily turnover is extremely exaggerated. Without doing anything, the daily net income can reach several hundred copper coins.

In the office, Ye Ran sat on the sofa with a cigarette in his mouth and looked at the ghost servants lining up to borrow money with a smile.

There was someone on the side describing the contract to them, it was Lao Wu.

Even if he becomes an evil cultivator, he has no future. Instead of wandering around, it is better to call him over to help him.

As for making trouble, there is no need to worry about it. Putting aside Ye Ran's own identity, the mere fact that there is a shady handsome man who often appears here is enough to stop those ghosts from being wanton.

"Mr. Ye, your bank is so coveted that we all want to work here."

Bai Wuchang suddenly appeared and sat opposite with a smile.

In addition to the black and white impermanence, the bull-headed horse-faced man also came with him.

Ye Ran didn't talk nonsense to them and directly threw four money bags on the table.

"Everyone has a lot of things to do, so let's just open the window and speak frankly."

"This money is just a token of your kindness. I hope you can help me with the situation in your free time. I can guarantee that as long as you agree, you will receive continuous benefits every year and festival in the future."

The casino was opened just to make money quickly. Ye Ran knew that he couldn't stay in Tianhai City forever, and he still had to find a few powerful allies.

If you suddenly leave one day and the casino is opened, it will explode.

The objects to be on guard against are those blind ghosts and evil cultivators.

There is no need to worry about the secular aspect. When the casino first started operating, it was reported and many officials came and wanted to seal it down.

But they couldn't find any evidence of external profits, and couldn't find any clues after a lot of monitoring. In the end, they had no choice but to let it go.

After all, they can't see these ghosts and can't define them.

Even if he is discovered, it doesn't matter. People in the world of the world have nothing to do with him in the underworld.

"Brother Ye is surprised when he says this. It doesn't matter whether we have money or not. Is our relationship still mutual?"

"Don't worry, as long as we are here, no one will dare to cause trouble in this casino!"

Bai Wuchang was the first to express his stance. He grabbed the money bag and weighed it, smiling so hard that his mouth almost reached behind his ears.

The other three didn't say anything, but from the moment they picked up the money bag, it was enough to explain everything.

I'm just helping to watch the show, and I'm not here permanently. Only a fool would refuse this kind of job that pays steadily and quickly.

The little salary given by the local government is gone after just two games at the card table. Not to mention the addiction to the heart, even the addiction to the hands cannot be solved.

Ever since they tasted the sweetness of being rich, these four shady men have long been dissatisfied with the pitiful copper coins.

Ye Ran nodded, and then pointed at Lao Wu who was busy at work: "If I have to leave the casino one day, I will leave all matters to him. Please help me."

Old Wu was also sensible and immediately stood up and saluted the four Yin handsome men with fists in their hands.

But Black and White Wuchang and the others had no expressions and simply chose to ignore it, as if they didn't think highly of Lao Wu.

Also, the four majestic Yin Commanders are respected wherever they go. Ordinary people who want to summon them have to ask gods for divination, and they may not always get a response.

Ye Ran knew that there was nothing in this world that money could not solve, so he took out another four hundred copper coins and placed them on the table.

"Please give me some thin noodles. You can use this money to play with it. It's just a little thought."

When they saw the money, Black and White Wuchang and the others immediately changed their attitude, and they all smiled and greeted Lao Wu with fists.

This sudden operation made Lao Wu stunned for a moment. Money can really make a fool of himself.

As the phone rang, Ye Ran sat up straight and put out the cigarette butt in his hand.

"Hello?"

The call was from Xiao Beijing, but there was no word for a long time, and Ye Ran couldn't help but frown.

"Ye...hundang...yellow...yellow..."

There was constant noise on the other end of the phone. Before Ye Ran could hear clearly what was being said, the phone completely lost its message.

I frowned and called again, but there was only a mechanical female voice on the other end of the phone.

The number you dialed is not in the service area——

"What's going on?"

Ye Ran stared at the phone with confusion. Before he could figure it out, a strange call came in.

After hesitating, he picked up the phone and put it to his ear. The familiar voice immediately made Ye Ran energetic.

"Well, okay, don't worry, old man, I will bring you back."

"Please also send me the detailed address. Yes, I will leave immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Ran got a text message on his phone.

"Ecstasy..."

"I'm going out for a while, and I'll leave the casino to you."

Ye Ran stood up immediately and left the office before Lao Wu could react.

…

At this time, in an elegant small courtyard on the top of a mountain.

An old man with a long white beard and a thin face was lying on a rocking chair drinking tea.

Next to him stood a plump woman, wearing a professional attire, holding a document in her arms, with a stern face.

"Master, are you so confident that an evil cultivator will rescue the young master?"

The woman spoke slowly, without any drawl, and was very capable.

The old man closed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Do you have any objections?"

The woman's face changed slightly, and she quickly bent down and responded: "I dare not, but..."

The old man slightly opened his eyelids and glanced over: "This period is too special. I am being watched by countless eyes now."

"Before all the traitors in the Snake Temple are removed, sending people out to rescue that stinky boy will only put me in a passive position in advance."

"The best choice at present is to let Ye Ran go. Hasn't he always wanted to find the golden tree? Give him this opportunity."

The old man closed his eyes and said nothing after he finished speaking, but then he opened his eyes again, as if he thought of something, and said to the woman beside him.

"You go too. When I was young, I left something in the Mihun Pond. I thought I would never use it in this life. Now... It's time to restart."

"Yes, Master!"

The woman replied briefly, and then twisted her slender waist to leave the place.

The sound of high heels became farther and farther, until it disappeared completely, and the old man sighed softly.

"Young man Ye, the price of immortality is very painful."

"You may run into him when you go to Mihuntang this time."

After saying that, the old man took out a photo from his arms and gently stroked the yellowed photo with his old fingers.

There were six people on it, one of whom was the old man when he was young.

And his eyes were fixed on the face of a young man with silver hair and a cold face.

...

At this time, Ye Ran had packed up all the necessary supplies and drove off. Mihuntang is located in Shudi. It is a strange forest with countless legends.

Perhaps this name is very unfamiliar, after all, not everyone knows that there is such a place.

But if you mention the Bermuda Triangle, this name is known to everyone.

And Mihuntang is known as the Bermuda Triangle on land.

There are too many legends about this place, and the most common version is that Mihuntang can lead directly to the Yellow Spring Road.

All the strange legends in the world are not groundless, especially until now, this place is still listed as a restricted area.

It is said that this place will cause all instruments and equipment to malfunction. Once you enter, you will be completely trapped in it and unable to find a way out.

Because of its strange and mysterious legend, it has attracted many people who love adventure, and even various professors and experts have entered to explore.

But what is unexpected is that these people have never come out after entering.

According to folk legend, these people have entered the Yellow Spring Road and can never come back.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is undeniable that this place is mysterious and strange.

In ancient times, the place of Mihuntang has been recorded.

But the explanation is rather one-sided, saying that Zhang Daoling once laid the Bagua Mihun Formation here, defeated the officers and soldiers who came to hunt him down in one fell swoop, and made them completely lost in this forest and slowly died.

And Mihuntang is in Wawu Mountain.

And this Wawu Mountain also has endless legends, which are also linked to Zhang Daoling.

According to folk rumors, after Zhang Daoling ascended from Mihuntang to become an immortal, after many years, a giant python suddenly appeared in Wawu Mountain to devour livestock, disturbing the people.

At this time, Zhang Daoling's spirit descended to the earth to help the mountain people eradicate the giant python and restore peace here.

To this day, there are still relics and legends of Zhang Daoling's descending python ditch in Wawu Mountain.

Although Ye Ran has never been to these places, he has heard a lot about them.

But the question is, why did Xiao Beijing go to such a place?

If it was to investigate the golden tree, he could have sent someone there, so why risk his life?

The most troublesome thing is how to determine the specific location of Xiao Beijing. Judging from the noise current coming from the phone, that place will inevitably cause electronic equipment to malfunction.

The Mihun Pond is so vast that diving in is like an ant entering the sea. You don't even know where you will drift to, let alone find someone.

Ye Ran held the steering wheel with one hand and quickly flipped through the call records with the other hand, ready to ask the old man for more information.

Unexpectedly, when he called, the number did not exist.

Ye Ran had no choice but to give up this idea. These powerful people all used virtual numbers. Only they could contact you, and you had no right to contact them.

…

After driving for two days, Ye Ran finally arrived at Wawu Mountain.

This place is a scenic spot outside, and it is full of tourists.

As soon as he got off the car, people gathered around him.

“Brother, do you want to stay?”

“Two hundred yuan a night, you can get a lunch, you will definitely be satisfied!”

“Brother, don’t listen to him, he is a tout, come to me, one hundred yuan for two meals, no cheating, I will kill you!”

Facing the people who surrounded him, Ye Ran was also very annoyed, and immediately yelled: “Get out of the way!”
