Chapter 53 Evil Cloud City
Merchant Jian raised his hand to let her go out, and closed the door when she went out so as not to affect his game playing.
Cheng Mai didn't ask any more questions because she knew very well that even if she asked, Shang Xingjian wouldn't say another word to her.
After leaving Shangjian Jian's office, he went out to look for Shen Luo.
Shen Luo had just made a reservation for everyone, and when he saw her coming out, he waved her over.
"The King of Hell is temporarily managing the matters in Fengcheng. Xuantian Temple will be renovated, which will take about three to five months. For the time being, Sanze and the others will keep an eye on the renovation."
Cheng Mai nodded, and the matter in Fengcheng was finally over.
Luo Linwen was still in the reception room at this moment, not long after Chong Chong entered.
"Show me Shen Yuanbai's demand list." Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
If Shang Xingjian really wants to bend the law for personal gain, no one can stop him.
And there was no need for him to explain himself.
Shen Luo found a request form with Shen Yuanbai's name written on it from a pile of documents. "There is no special request. I just think that his ex-wife is possessed by something dirty. I hope we can go over and take a look."
It's just that their people went there and didn't find any problems.
If it was puppetry, that would make sense.
Puppetry is just a harmless little spell that has no side effects and leaves no trace after being used. It is one of the little spells they often use to tease people.
"It is rumored that this puppet technique was a gadget created by the Mysterious God out of boredom. After all, it was created by the gods and will not hurt anyone."
Xuanji, one of the twelve gods, is good at magic.
Cheng Mai read Shen Yuanbai's request list, "So if Luo Linwen hadn't accidentally knocked on my door this time, you wouldn't have thought it was puppetry?"
"The third group mentioned this possibility, but the puppet technique left no trace. Without seeing it with my own eyes, even the boss did not dare to draw conclusions easily." Shen Luo explained.
Cheng Mai didn't expect that this spell would be so invisible that even the merchant slips couldn't identify it.
"Is this spell difficult to learn?" Cheng Mai asked.
"If it was in the past when spiritual energy was abundant and the world of cultivation was prosperous, it would not be difficult. But now, it is difficult for little monsters who practice to become spirits to learn it." This is also the reason why they did not consider puppetry at the first time.
"Do you think Luo Linwen will be a victim?"
Shen Luo smiled and said, "I really don't know about this. Luo Linwen is said to have a good destiny, but it seems that her life has not been smooth."
Cheng Mai returned Shen Yuanbai's demand letter to Shen Luo and looked back at Chong Chong coming out of the reception room in a state of low spirits.
"How was it?"
Chong Chong looked very tired. He was not so tired even when he recalled the memories of General Meng An last time.
"There are too many things in Miss Luo's mind. I finally found something strange from those messy memories. Half a month ago, Miss Luo went to Yuncheng once, but what did she do? I Can’t see, it’s a blur inside.”
Shen Luo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Even you can't see it. It seems that someone has manipulated her memory. He is a powerful person."
"Half a month ago? Yuncheng?"
Chongchong nodded.
"The first time Shen Yuanbai came to see Xuan He was about half a month ago, so after Luo Linwen came back from Yuncheng, she went to the Shen family to make trouble." If this is the case, then what Luo Linwen did in Yuncheng is very important. . Luo Linwen's recalled memory is still in a deep sleep.
Cheng Mai crossed his arms across his chest and looked down at the sleeping Luo Linwen. Why did she go to Yuncheng, and what happened in Yuncheng?
And what does Shang Xingjian mean when she says this is her exam?
"What are you thinking about? I ordered the macarons for you." Shen Luo came in with desserts. Seeing Cheng Mai in a daze, he handed the macarons in his hand to her, "It's the boss's money spent."
< br>
Cheng Mai took it and opened it, "Does he still have money?"
"Next month's salary in advance." Shen Luo was bolder now. Anyway, the boss's money may not belong to the boss in the end.
Shen Luo glanced at Luo Linwen, who was still awake.
"You're not planning to go to Yuncheng, are you? That place is evil, so you'd better not go."
"Evil? Why is it evil?" Cheng Mai asked while eating. It would be a pity not to eat the boss's money.
How can the threat of getting fat compare with the pleasure of having your boss foot the bill?
"Let's put it this way, Fengcheng has at most a few lawless people, but Yuncheng has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. What kind of place has the most?"
"Soldiers who died in battle? But is this terrible?" Those are heroes, there is nothing to be afraid of.
"Hey, here's the problem. There is no underworld in Yuncheng, but there is a team of Yin soldiers with tens of thousands of people."
"Number of people?"
"Ah, ghost." Shen Luo changed his story in time, "The boss once went to talk to their general, but the general was a tough guy and refused to surrender to anyone. Moreover, this ghost general has a surly personality and does everything based on his mood."
"So the boss just let him go?"
"The boss said that's what he deserves." Shen Luo smiled, "Anyway, the boss said after he came back that Yuncheng is the territory of that ghost general, and no one has the right to comment."
Another ghost general with a story.
"Later, the earthquake in Yuncheng killed many people, and also shook out many evil things underground. All those evil things were torn apart overnight, and the hostility in Yuncheng gradually gathered. So this year, Yun City The city's economy cannot develop, and everyone who goes to Yuncheng always gets sick when they come back. Yuncheng is called the evil city. "
The Yuncheng in Cheng Mai's memory was only from geography textbooks. He only knew that the city was located on the edge, and his only impression was that it was economically backward.
"Everyone who has been to Yuncheng will get sick. Has no one noticed such a strange thing?"
"How many people go to Yuncheng all year round? Those people feel like they have a cold at most. In addition, those mortals can't see the hostility. They just feel that the climate is humid and uncomfortable when they go there."
Cheng Mai nodded to show that he understood, "So Luo Linwen's puppetry may have been brought back from Yuncheng, but don't you think it's unreasonable?"
Yuncheng is thousands of miles away from City A. Even if there is a lot of gossip from wealthy families, it is only spread in this circle. How could it spread to that kind of place and let people use it as a prank?
It's more like someone did it on purpose.
"When she wakes up, you can ask her yourself." Shen lowered his chin and nodded at Luo Linwen.
Sure enough, Luo Linwen frowned and was slowly waking up.
Shen Luo picked up the packaging box she had finished eating and said, "I'll go out first. If you need anything, call me."
Cheng Mai watched Luo Linwen wake up and gave her a little help, "Miss Luo, are you awake?"
Luo Linwen patted her head and seemed to be still calming down. After a while, she replied: "Much better."
Cheng Mai got straight to the point and asked: "Miss Luo, why did you go to Yuncheng half a month ago?"
