Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department

Hou Hongfang’s Copper Coins have the power to ward off danger.

The fact that these Copper Coins actively repel the rainwater proves there is something wrong with it.

In such a vast Shuiheng Mountain, searching for someone is not easy.

If the person is still alive, it might be manageable, but if deceased, finding a body is tough.

Mo Lin raised his hand, ready to summon his ghosts.

"Don’t.."

Just as Mo Lin was about to make a move, Hou Hongfang interrupted him.

"Release a ghost to see first," Hou Hongfang reminded Mo Lin.

In this situation, Hou Hongfang’s thoughts were more meticulous.

If only one ghost gets into trouble, there’s a way to fix it.

If tens of thousands of ghosts appear simultaneously and run into trouble, even Hou Hongfang wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Mo Lin nodded, raising his right hand slowly.

A white female ghost appeared in front of Mo Lin.

Ghost Mother held a black jar in her right hand, appearing upfront.

"Check if there is a problem with the rainwater," Mo Lin instructed Ghost Mother.

Ghost Mother nodded, reached into the jar with her right hand, and grabbed a Little Ghost.

The chubby Little Ghost resembled the shape of a glass jar.

Short, with a pair of wings on its back.

"Go out and see," Ghost Mother instructed the chubby little ghost.

"Alright, master."

The chubby Little Ghost nodded and then flapped its wings.

Perhaps due to its fat physique, it frantically flapped its wings, leaving the protection range of the Copper Coins.

The rainwater fell on the chubby Little Ghost, making a "crackle" sound.

Initially, the chubby Little Ghost was fine.

After a few breaths of time, the chubby Little Ghost’s body quickly plummeted, nearly falling to the ground, then flapped its wings again, causing its body to fly again.

The chubby Little Ghost spun 180 degrees in the air and straight out crashed toward the distant mountain summit.

"Bang!"

The chubby Little Ghost committed suicide.

Mo Lin and the others instinctively frowned.

Hou Hongfang frowned tightly, exactly as he had predicted.

"This rainwater possesses hallucinatory power, causing ghosts, and humans alike to commit suicide," Ghost Mother explained to Mo Lin.

The Copper Coins led the way, and Mo Lin and the others followed their direction.

The Copper Coins have the power to ward off danger, and Mo Lin’s group will coincidentally avoid dangerous places.

Along the way, they saw many corpses.

But they did not see the body of Gen Family Business.

The group had reached halfway up Shuiheng Mountain.

The lowest valley of Shuiheng Mountain has now become a river.

This river runs through the center of Shuiheng Mountain.

"Hey.."

A rumbling shout came through.

The river water surged, and water gathered to form a faceless Water Man, just a human-like silhouette made of water.

"Get out." The Water Man scolded Mo Lin and the others.

"Can’t deal with us, so you’re trying to drive us away?" Hou Hongfang snorted coldly.

He used Copper Coins to avoid all dangers within Shuiheng Mountain.

The master of Shuiheng Mountain couldn’t sit still, ready to drive them away.

"It’s fine if we leave. A person named Gen Family Business came here a few days ago, hand him over, and we’ll leave at once."

As the words fell, Hou Hongfang raised his right hand and punched the lake surface.

The ripples on the lake’s surface painted out an image of Gen Family Business.

"Is that him?"

Looking at the image of Gen Family Business, the Water Man said slowly: "He’s in the cave at the far east.

You can search for him there."

When the words were finished, the Water Man’s body dispersed in the air.

Mo Lin and others followed the Water Man’s direction to the far east, and sure enough, there was a cave.

Entering the cave, the walls around were covered in bloodstains, with flesh stuck to the walls.

Gen Family Business at this moment sat on the ground, eyes dull, covered in blood.

Even a chunk of meat was missing from his right leg.

Gen Family Business’s eyes had a glimmer.

As if he had just opened his eyes.

"Mo Lin? Another hallucination?

Wasn’t this hallucination supposed to make me experience drowning?"

Gen Family Business slowly got up, swaying as if drunk.

"Brother Mo, wait for me... give me some time... I can do it.. I can withstand it."

He looked at Mo Lin as if gazing at an illusion.

Speaking to Mo Lin felt as if talking to himself.

"It’s me, come back with me," Mo Lin slowly said.

Seeing Gen Family Business wasn’t dead, Mo Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Gen Family Business’s body stiffened, as if realizing the Mo Lin before him wasn’t an illusion.

"Don’t meddle with me..."

Gen Family Business raised his voice, shouted at Mo Lin, "Go.. leave me alone."

He swung his body wildly, pointing outside the cave, urging Mo Lin to leave.

"This guy lost his mind, forcibly take him away," Hou Hongfang said calmly.

Mo Lin nodded, preparing to forcibly take Mo Lin away.

"I haven’t lost my mind... don’t touch me."

Just as Mo Lin’s hand was about to touch Gen Family Business, he flung Mo Lin’s hand away.

One could clearly see a drop of blood sticking to Mo Lin’s body from his hand.

But Mo Lin’s attention was entirely on Gen Family Business, not noticing the drop of blood.

Mo Lin was momentarily stunned.

"I’m not leaving, I want to stay here, I want to become strong." Gen Family Business said slowly.

"There’s nothing here that can make you strong," Mo Lin reminded Gen Family Business.

"No... there is something here, something can make me stronger.

I’m begging you, will you just leave?

Even if I die, I want to die here." Gen Family Business slowly said to Mo Lin.

"Are you serious?" Mo Lin sensed Gen Family Business’s determination not to leave.

"Yes." Gen Family Business nodded.

"No matter what you do, I support you."

Mo Lin slowly said to Gen Family Business: "Don’t die, I don’t want to lose a friend."

Mo Lin respected Gen Family Business’s wishes; all he could do was offer his blessing.

Mo Lin turned around, leaving with Hou Hongfang and Qu Qing.

After Mo Lin’s figure completely disappeared.

Gen Family Business quickly crawled on the ground, like a dog, towards the direction behind the wall.

"Master... I’ve done as you said; please, give me some more spiritual liquid." Gen Family Business’s tone was filled with pleading and urgency.

A shadowy figure emerged from the wall.

Raising his right hand, liquid-like substance dripped onto the ground.

Gen Family Business quickly moved forward, bowed his head, and licked the liquid on the ground.

The figure used its foot to step on Gen Family Business’s head.

Gen Family Business didn’t care, immersed in licking the liquid on the ground.

He seemed addicted to it.

"Good... very good, I need a dog as obedient as you." The man smiled.

The man lifted his foot and kicked Gen Family Business hard in the chest.

Gen Family Business rolled on the ground like a ball, three or four times before stopping.

"Stop licking; accomplish the next task, and I’ll reward you more," the man coldly said to Gen Family Business.

Gen Family Business hurriedly climbed up, came to the man’s feet, and looked up at him.

"Master, whatever task, order me."

Who could have thought, someone relying on willpower, enduring tens of thousands of near-death experiences, would be manipulated by addictive liquid?

Mo Lin, Hou Hongfang, and Qu Qing were now on their way to Beihai.

Somehow, after leaving Shuiheng Mountain, Mo Lin felt incredibly fatigued.

His head felt dizzy, as if he had a sensation of being hollowed out.
