Chapter 56 (2/2)
After being alive for thirty-over years, this would be his first time meeting ghosts. He couldn’t seem to describe how that felt.
“Hao’zi, over here.” Zhou Gang led them and they quickly arrived at a cemetery beside a forest.
Before Chen Hao spoke up, a wisp of light appeared from nowhere and turned into Zhao Yuan.
“Master Chen, Captain Zhou, it’s been a long time.” Zhao Yuan raised his hand and greeted courteously like a scholar.
“Ghost… ghost…”
Wang Zhen was completely unprepared when he saw the pale face appear out of nowhere in mid-air. Said ghost was even clad in attire from the past. Wang Zhen clenched his ass tightly as a shudder ran through his body and his words were no longer coherent.
Zhou Gang said in a displeased manner, “Brother Zhen, didn’t you say that you were not afraid?”
Wang Zhen was on the brink of tears.
He was just trying to boast, how could you take his words seriously.
Chen Hao chuckled. “Enough. Zhao Yuan isn’t a ferocious ghost, so there isn’t anything to be afraid of.” After speaking, Chen Hao turned to look at Zhao Yuan as he continued, “Come over. Let me tell you a piece of good news. Your mother’s grave has been found.”
“Really?” Zhao Yuan’s eyes shone as he asked excitedly.
Chen Hao said, “What real and fake. Do you think I have the time to come here just to tease you?”
Zhao Yuan’s expression hardened and he appeared a little awkward. However, most of it was still joyful.
The obsession he had held over a century. He had missed her so much and now he could finally meet her.
“However, the situation is unique. What we found was three graves that were buried with your clan’s people, but it has already been more than a century. With the Zhao family in shambles, there was no one to clean the graves, so we basically can’t tell who is who. If you wish to pay respects to them, you can only do it together. I have no way of confirming who’s who for you.” Chen Hao continued.
Zhao Yuan paused before he revealed a bitter smile. “I’m already satisfied that their burial grounds could be found. Thank you, Master. Thank you, Captain Zhou. I have nothing to repay your kindness and greatness with.”
Chen Hao nodded, satisfied. It was good as long as he didn’t cause more trouble out of nothing. After all, he really did need that Dao Attainment.
Afterward, Zhou Gang told Zhao Yuan the location of the three graves.
After remembering the graves’ locations, Zhao Yuan bowed deeply towards Chen Hao and Zhou Gang once again before vanishing.
It was evident that he was very eager to pay his respects.
Although it was slightly far, for a century-old ghost, this distance was nothing.
When Zhao Yuan left, Chen Hao spoke, “We’ve finished our business here. Let’s go back.”
Wang Zhen was still watching from the side in a daze after listening to the conversation.
It ended like this.
The whole process seemed no different from a casual talk? Do humans and ghosts communicate like this?
All of a sudden, Wang Zhen was no longer afraid, and there was even a trace of disappointment in his heart.
Before he came, he even imagined that he would see those humans versus ghosts war, but it seemed like he over thought it.
After he got in the car and Zhou Gang drove a distance away, Wang Zhen sighed. “So a ghost is like that. They don’t seem scary at all.”
Zhou Gang smiled at that.
Who was the one who was about to pee his pants just now? Just when he was about to tease him, Chen Hao suddenly spoke.
“Stop the car!”
Screech…
Zhou Gang stepped down hard on the emergency brakes. He was going to ask what was going on when he saw Chen Hao’s serious gaze directed to the front.
