"Well?!" Zhang GUI's tone was a bit higher, "Brother Luo, do you know?"!
I did not disclose anything about the mental institution. I deliberately said, "It's not like I know, but in the end, you don't have to worry more."
Zhang Gui relaxed significantly and smiled, "Your information is crucial, and I'll report it immediately. In fact, the organization's personnel are scattered across the four directions, and recalling them all at once would result in considerable loss."
Then, Zhang Gui asked me again if I could reveal some clues to them. After all, such a joint operation only comes once every ten years.
I remained silent.
Leaking a little information to Zhang Gui was to consolidate the subtle connection between me and the Ghost Hall.
Zhang Gui will definitely be able to come in handy at a critical moment.
However, the information about the old man in a suit is absolutely confidential.
Before, the leader had discussed his concerns with Han Zizi, worrying about the Ghost Hall's actions.
"I'm really not informed, Brother Zhang. It should be related to supervision. You also know that my relationship with the Hall of the Guardian God is delicate. The reason why they supervise and guard me is because of one of my friends. In the past two days, I've been thinking about dealing with this matter. Just when Yang Shan wanted to win me over, I heard some things."
"In terms of the supervision, there's a red-robed Taoist. He not only summoned the Hall of the Guardian God, but they should be gathering at the Temple of the City God." I replied with caution.
"Hissing..." Zhang Gui's voice carried a sense of gravity, and he continued, "Is it something wrong with the Temple of the City God? That doesn't seem right. Our organization hasn't done anything. This matter still needs to be reported to the higher-ups."
I took a deep breath and said again: "Anyway, Brother Zhang, avoid the supervision and the Hall of the Guardian God. Prevent accidents from happening."
"Thank you, Brother Luo, for the reminder."
After speaking with Zhang Gui, he hung up the phone.
I calmed my thoughts.
Telling Zhang Gui these messages was essentially the same as not telling him at all.
They could all know that the Hall of the Guardian God and the Supervision were working together, and they would eventually discover that they were gathering at the Temple of the City God. It was just a matter of time.
I made it clear first and placed more of the issue on the supervision leader's head.
The people from the Ghost Hall would take these considerations into account and keep their distance.
I'm just going with the flow, not affecting anything, and achieving the purpose of advancing our relationship.
I rolled out of bed, washed up, and felt more alert.
I went through my items again, took out all the clothes from my backpack, and put all the other inconvenient things that couldn't be carried on my body into the backpack. I then put it on my back.
Besides the long pole, which I don't have, the items from the Nine Streams of Mortuary Art are almost complete for me.
The copper bell is no longer kept close to my body, but hung at waist level, like a gong hanging on the side.
In this way, I can move faster when I take action!
After a few rounds, it was almost 4 in the afternoon, and the knocking on the door echoed.
As I walked out of the room, the living room was filled with sunlight, and the talismans did not show any signs of change.
I opened the living room door, and the person standing in front of the door was still Mr. Yang.
His goat-like face was full of smiles: "Master Xiao Shen's nephew, are you resting well?"
Mr. Yang's attitude had already been very good, but now it had become even better.
I know that it's not just because of the matter of Huan Ying, but also because of Sun Zhuo's attitude towards me. It led to the head of the group having deeper speculations, which is why they are doing this.
"Okay." I replied with a normal expression and asked, "Are the personnel ready?"
"Ha ha, we're about ready. For your matter, we Hall of the Guardian God have made a heavy investment this time. The leader has asked me to take you out to eat first, and then we'll set off together." Mr. Yang replied.
I said nothing more.
For this matter, the Hall of the Guardian God has put in a lot of effort. I cannot deny it.
But their objective is just as self-evident.
At most, it's just a mutually beneficial arrangement.
After leaving Huan Ying's home, I walked out of the ground floor unit door. There were restaurants next to the community. Mr. Yang still cared about me and asked me what dishes I liked.
I casually ordered two dishes.
During the meal, Mr. Yang kept smiling at me, and his expression was identical to the leader's, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
After finishing a meal, it didn't even need to go back to the community elevator. A car was already parked outside the restaurant.
Besides the driver, there was only one person left in the car - the leader.
Mr. Yang sat in the front passenger seat, while I took the back seat, sitting next to the leader.
During the whole journey, the leader did not say much. He just had a fat and friendly face.
Just before we were about to leave the city, he told me that he didn't say our purpose earlier in order to help me find the lost soul. This was because he had already known that the Taoist priests were targeting me. If they found out, something bad might happen.
Especially now that he knows that Sun Zhuo's schemes against me are even more sinister, he cannot reveal the purpose of searching for the soul.
I faintly smiled, nodded, and said that the leader's arrangement was indeed very reasonable and proper.
Then, the leader smiled cheerfully and said, "Master Xiao Shen, once you recover that lost soul of yours, there will be no more enmity between you and the Hall of the Guardian God. At that time, we will be mutually beneficial in dealing with the affairs of the Mansion of Darkness."
"I understand, and you're still worried that we're targeting Huan Ying."
"I can assure you that we will not do so. I know that you've hidden Huan Ying, but it is impossible for us to target her. Only the supervision Taoists would do such a thing."
"The supervision over the years, hand is getting longer, more and more, we have long been displeased, and the things of you Sun family, if it can be said out, in the future Hall of the Guardian God will help."
My pupils contracted once again.
I did not expect the leader to reveal the purpose so directly!
And even promised not to harm Huan Ying.
While pointing out his dissatisfaction with the supervision, he specifically mentioned that it was only the Taoists who had ill intentions towards Huan Ying, as if trying to redirect my anger?
In my thoughts, I didn't say anything.
To be honest, if Sun Zhuo is toppled, the Hall of the Guardian God will undoubtedly gain a lot of benefits. At least, the supervision will be in chaos.
But the risk is still too great.
The day I ran into trouble, my life was taken away by the spirits of the deceased, and that day was also when chaotic ground energy caused by the illness of sky gods spread.
God knows if there are any people in the know who know there might be a connection?
"If you really want to help, just find Sun Dahai for me. I don't want to get into too much detail."
"As for Huan Ying, I don't know where she is."
I replied in a hoarse voice.
The leader just smiled and said, "Master Xiao Shen, you don't need to rush to answer me. There's still time, after all, your soul hasn't been found back yet."
After saying that, the leader looked out the window.
I couldn't see his gaze, but from his expression, I always felt that something was off.
Mr. Yang in the front passenger seat was glancing at me through the rearview mirror.
So, I turned my head and looked out the window on the other side instead of at the leader.
Before I knew it, the car had left the city.
After another ten or so minutes, we arrived in the suburbs.
I only saw that there was a car parked by the side of the road.
A red-robed Taoist with snow-white hair stood under a tree. Behind him were Zhu Xia, a green-robed Taoist, and several others in green robes.
And... a female Taoist.
