Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 435 The attack begins

"Yaya!"

After Bai Yongnian dismissed the others, he took Ji Mo alone to Ya Ya and the others.

"Brother Nian!"

When Ya Ya saw Bai Yongnian, she jumped up and down to greet him, but she still didn't leave the young man's side.

This scene left Bai Yongnian puzzled.

After they moved to their base in Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, they did nothing for the first few days except explore the town.

After exploring, they discovered more than twenty indigenous people in total.

Bai Yongnian originally did not know that these people were natives. When he met them, he was shocked by the Yin Messenger tokens that each of them had.

Although the Yin Messenger Token is not something that is difficult to obtain, most of his team members still do not have it.

So at the time, he felt that their relocation might be to a place where they already had a foothold.

This is a major obstacle to their goal of taking control of a base.

Just as Bai Yongnian was thinking about how to deal with these people, he saw three children and a dog!

If it were adults, that would be one thing, but why are the three children and the dog all wearing underworld messenger tokens around their necks?
Even if you have a lot of good karma, you shouldn't use it like this, right?

This aroused Bai Yongnian's suspicion.

After he found an opportunity to get in touch with the three children, he managed to extract some information from them.

These people weren't underworld messengers after all!
In their own words, they were just a group of 'natives' who had just come from Zhouzhuang to help the Lord of the Underworld manage the Underworld's territory!
These people may even be sent to other posts to manage them in the future!

This relieved Bai Yongnian, but also filled him with joy.

Although they didn't know where these managers came from, it was definitely a great thing for Bai Yongnian and his team!

If you build a good relationship with these managers, won't you have connections in other locations as well?

Immediately, Bai Yongnian held a meeting with his team to explain their future attitude towards these indigenous people.

Among them, the three children, including Ya Ya, and a dog were naturally the most popular.

After all, it's much simpler to get along with children.

What puzzled Bai Yongnian was that he knew almost every one of these indigenous people, but he had never seen this young man in front of him before.

But judging from the closeness between Ya Ya and her three children and this young man, they certainly hadn't met for the first time.

What's the matter?

With a puzzled look, Bai Yongnian looked at the young man and asked Ya Ya, "Ya Ya, who is this?"

Ya Ya exclaimed excitedly, "This is Teacher Xu! Teacher Xu!"

"Teacher Xu?"

Bai Yongnian was even more puzzled. There were no schools in Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, so where did the teachers come from?

Just then, Teacher Xu spoke up.

"Hello, I am Xu Zhiheng."

"Uh, hello, I'm Bai Yongnian, this is Ji Mo."

After saying that, Bai Yongnian added, "Teacher Xu, Ji Mo and I have only been here a short time and we don't think we've seen you before?"

Xu Zhiheng patted Ya Ya's head and said with a smile, "This is my first time here too. I've been busy outside before."

the first time?
Busy outside?
What are you up to?
Bai Yongnian's gaze involuntarily fell on the sword in Xu Zhiheng's hand.

Busy flying on swords?

Bai Yongnian wanted to ask more, but it wasn't appropriate to ask too many questions at their first meeting.

Furthermore, at this point, Ya Ya and the others had already dragged Xu Zhiheng into Zhouzhuang.

"Teacher Xu, come see our new home! I chose it myself, and it's so beautiful!"

"And me, Teacher Xu, my house is also very beautiful! It's right next to Yaya's house."

Tie Zhu raised his hand excitedly.

Even Gou Sheng, who had been mostly silent, hugged his dog and said, "Teacher Xu, we have a new home too!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go check it out right now."

Xu Zhiheng smiled broadly at the three children, then glanced apologetically at Bai Yongnian and the other two.

"Then I'll go first."

"Oh, okay, take care... By the way, Yaya, Tiezhu, Gousheng, these are building blocks I brought from outside, you three can play with them."

Bai Yongnian then realized something and reached behind Ji Mo to take the large bag from his hands.

Ya Ya and the other two's eyes lit up, and just as they were about to step forward, they suddenly remembered something and looked up at Xu Zhiheng.

This scene made Bai Yongnian even clearer about Xu Zhiheng's position in the hearts of the three boys.

This doesn't seem like a typical student-teacher relationship.

He had given the three little ones things before, and they were shy the first time. After that, they would ask for whatever he gave them.

Logically speaking, since the habit had already been formed, even if the three children's families were present, Bai Yongnian believed that the three of them would come to take the things without hesitation.

But this time, they actually watched Xu Zhiheng!
According to Xu Zhiheng, this was his first time here.

At least during the time Bai Yongnian and the others were there, the three little ones had not seen Xu Zhiheng.

Nevertheless, the three boys still did it, which is enough to show how important Xu Zhiheng is to them.

Seeing Xu Zhiheng nod, the three little ones happily accepted the building blocks and loudly said thank you.

Before leaving, Xu Zhiheng said, "Let's have tea together when I'm done with my work here."

Bai Yongnian never expected that a simple building block he brought along would bring him such a reward!
When Xu Zhiheng left without giving a gift, he only said goodbye politely, but now he has extended an invitation.

Whether it was just polite talk or not, at least Bai Yongnian was given a chance!

This is a sword immortal!

Now, I'll have tea with the Sword Immortal, then I'll treat him to a meal, and eventually I'll become his disciple. Isn't that perfect?

Even if you can't become an apprentice, having a sword immortal behind you makes you feel powerful.

After watching Xu Zhiheng leave, Ji Mo then came up.

"Old Bai, is this really that sword immortal?"

"Huh? Why do you ask that? Didn't you see the sword in his hand?"

Bai Yongnian said with a smile.

Ji Mo frowned.

"But the tiger accessory he was wearing around his waist seems a little different from the one in the video?"

Bai Yongnian paused for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "Maybe he wasn't wearing this accessory that day?"

"And... what about her figure?"

"figure?"

"Yes, I feel that this person is... shorter than the one in the video?"

This time, Bai Yongnian also frowned.

"you sure?"

"I'm not sure, since there aren't many references. I'm just judging based on the proportions of that sword."

Ji Mo shook his head and said.

Bai Yongnian fell silent, but soon his furrowed brows relaxed.

"No, it's better! No, it means there's more than one sword immortal, which gives us an even better chance!"

Ji Mo's eyes lit up, and she put her arm around Bai Yongnian's shoulder and swayed back and forth!
"It has to be you! Tell me quickly, how do I become your disciple? I can't wait to return to the mortal world and show my divine power!"

Bai Yongnian pushed open the end of the season.

"Take it slow, there's no rush. First, we need to understand Xu Zhiheng's relationship with the village, then we can address the problem accordingly. We've got this sword immortal in our grasp!"

With that, Bai Yongnian and Ji Mo headed towards the center of their encampment. As the first group of Yin messengers to enter Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, Bai Yongnian and his companions chose what they considered the best location in the entire town—the town center.

After Bai Yongnian returned and told everyone about Xu Zhiheng's matter, they discussed it and all felt that it was a promising opportunity.

“Then I’ll go back to the mortal world and bring some good tea from home, so I won’t go empty-handed.”

After Bai Yongnian finished speaking, he took out the underworld messenger's token.

This was exchanged for him by collecting the accumulated good karma of the Bai family members over this period of time.

Although their group consists of 25 people, apart from the Bai family members, no one else could unconditionally support Bai Yongnian.

Therefore, outwardly, they are a unified group, but internally, they are divided into three factions.

They are the Bai family, the Ji family, and several outsiders with whom they have a distant but not close relationship, such as Ye Chang and Nan Yu Ke.

The Ji Mo family could actually accumulate enough Yin virtue for the Yin Messenger Order, but they didn't do so. Instead, they used their Yin virtue on a talisman, creating a Yin Si-level reed.

This greatly accelerated their progress in hunting down the ghosts.

Before long, they will be able to gather enough Yin Virtue Points for another Yin-level Suppressing Item!

In this respect, they believe that the Bai family's actions were unwise.

But for Bai Yongnian, the close connection with the mortal world is also a kind of invisible strength.

At least he won't experience the communication difficulties that the Ji family faced due to the depletion of two hundred merits in each round trip.

Of course, he would pass on some information to the Ji family, but certainly not as much or in as much detail as he would to his own family.

Soon, Bai Yongnian received some fine tea from his family members who had remained in the mortal world and had not yet gone to the underworld.

"Yongnian, you received a phone call earlier about your chicken farm. Do you think you should take care of it?"

Bai Yongnian's father handed over the cell phone that Bai Yongnian had left behind in the world.

Because there was no signal in the underworld, he didn't bring his phone with him. Instead, he left it in the mortal world for his father to keep an eye on, so as not to miss anything.

Bai Yongnian took the phone and thought for a moment.

Xu Zhiheng just got back and will definitely spend some time with Ya Ya and the others, so there's no rush to go.

So you could ask about the chicken farm issue.

After all, his chicken farm is now his biggest source of income.

Whether sold to the Bureau of Investigation, private individuals, or even colleagues in the underworld, it's a decent income, not to mention the favors received along the way.

Besides the chicken farm, Bai Yongnian also had several other factories, namely a pottery jar factory, a mesh screen factory, and a winery. These factories correspond to the Fenghun Tan (Sealing Soul Jar), ​​the Luowang Sieve (Net Screen), and the Tusu Wine, respectively!

Although the method for making Tusu wine was not revealed by the underworld, this did not prevent Bai Yongnian from preparing in advance, just like a chicken farm.

As for the Soul Sealing Altar, it was originally just a small workshop, but after Bai Yongnian entered the Mirage Realm through the 'Underworld Internet Cafe', it expanded its scale!

It's easy to imagine that the Soul Sealing Altar will be an essential item for every underworld official in the future. This industry is definitely promising, and may even be more promising than chicken farms!

Therefore, he has to pay attention to these venues.

Bai Yongnian picked up his phone and called Old Li from the chicken farm.

"Old Li, what happened at the chicken farm?"

"Boss, you're finally back! The chicken farm, the chickens at the chicken farm, they were poisoned and killed!"

"what?"

Bai Yongnian was taken aback. Poisoning the chicken?

Who is this?
Bai Yongnian immediately said, "Don't worry, I'll be there right away."

After saying that, Bai Yongnian hung up the phone and picked up the underworld messenger's token.

The Yin Si level Yin Messenger can record three location coordinates: Bai Yongnian's own home is one coordinate, the chicken farm is another, and the third is left empty for maneuver.

As soon as the thought crossed Bai Yongnian's mind, two more points of light appeared.

After touching one of them, Bai Yongnian disappeared from the spot, leaving only his father with a smile on his face and a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

……

"Old Li!"

Bai Yongnian walked out of his room and went to Old Li's room, who managed his chicken farm.

"Boss? You're here?"

Old Li was stunned. This was too fast; he hadn't even heard the sound of a car.

"Okay, tell me about the chicken farm."

"Oh, okay, okay."

Old Li immediately recounted what had happened.

The chickens on both hills were fine last night, but when we fed them today, they started to collapse one by one.

If it weren't for Lao Li's quick reaction, all those chickens that came to eat the feed would probably be dead!

Afterwards, Lao Li checked the surveillance footage and found that four out of the five cameras in the feed storage warehouse were broken!

Only one in a remote location remained intact.

It was that same camera that captured someone tampering with the animal feed.

"You didn't call the police?"

"I reported it before I even called you, boss. But after the video recordings were taken away, I called back to inquire but got no results. Even though their faces were clearly captured on video, their efficiency is still so slow!"

"Is there a backup of the video recording?"

"No, someone else came and took it away later."

Bai Yongnian frowned upon hearing this.

The backup was also taken away. What's going on?
"But I was careful and took a picture of that person with my phone."

Old Li took out his phone.

Bai Yongnian glanced at it and his expression froze.

This person looks somewhat familiar?
Why does it look familiar?

Bai Yongnian couldn't remember.

After returning the phone to Lao Li, Bai Yongnian drove away in his car, which he had parked there, and headed straight for the Mubei Municipal Bureau of Investigation!

……

"Team Leader Jin, I'm sorry to trouble you. Please urge the police station to expedite the chicken farm matter."

Bai Yongnian said to Jin Chao.

"Don't worry, those chickens don't just belong to Mr. Bai, they also belong to the city of Mubei. I will keep an eye on them."

Jin Chao said with a solemn expression.

"Thank you, Team Leader Jin... Didn't Director Bai say when he'd be back?"

"No, is there anything else, Mr. Bai?"

"That's all, see you next time."

Bai Yongnian said hello and left.

Jin Chao watched Bai Yongnian's retreating figure, then turned and headed down into the ground.

Soon, he entered a secret underground chamber.

Upon opening the door, Bai Hongtao was found sitting inside.

There was another person sitting opposite Bai Hongtao, who was bound to a chair.

If Bai Yongnian were here, he would definitely recognize that person; it was the same person on Lao Li's phone!
"Don't force me to take action. Tell me, why did you attack Bai Yongnian's chicken farm!"

Bai Hongtao stared at Yu Shanze, the senior team leader, in the chair opposite him, his face ashen.
