The old lady walked out from the house with a black bag in her hands.
"These are the talismans that I have no use for. Since you're going to find trouble with the ghost, of course, the more, the better …" The old lady pushed the bag forward. "I'll give them all to you."
Looking at the bag of talismans, Chen Ge's lips twitched. "Granny, how much did you spend to buy so many talismans?"
"The price is not important; the key is their effectiveness."
Chen Ge felt that the old lady had treated him well. He did not want the old lady to continue being scammed, so he planned to help her. "Granny, do you mind introducing me to the person who sold you the talismans?"
"Sure, I'll bring you to him when you're back. He's an expert. He looks unkempt, but those with real knowledge are all like that."
The more Chen Ge listened, the more he felt like the old lady had been scammed. After getting the man's address, he left with the bag of talismans.
Walking out from the residential area, Chen Ge looked at the picture on his phone. The writing on the yellow paper was very messy. Instead of Chinese, it was more like some kind of symbol with a special meaning.
"Who can understand this?" Chen Ge closed the page and called the theme park to ask about the situation.
When he sent Wen Wen home, it was already afternoon, and they had wasted some time on the road. Since he was not there, Xu Wan followed his instructions and closed the Haunted House before sunset.
Lao Zhou and Duan Yue performed well, and there were no accidents, so Chen Ge sighed in relief.
"I need to give Lao Zhou and Duan Yue some rewards. They have no desires, but I can see that Lao Zhou likes Duan Yue. I can help him pursue Duan Yue, and Duan Yue … a girl shouldn't be able to resist the temptation of becoming a superstar, right? I can promise her that when the author's dying wish is fulfilled in the future, she will be the main female character. "
Chen Ge had always treated his employees well, and he had a clear sense of reward and punishment.
After hanging up, Chen Ge shoved the things the old lady had given him into his backpack and called a taxi to hurry to Eastern Jiujiang Dam.
The mission for special tourist Wen Wen still hasn't been triggered. What's the problem? Do we have to let girls come into contact with water entertainment facilities? " The girl's aunt had once told Chen Ge not to let the girl go to the water. To ensure Wen Wen's safety, Chen Ge would not put the girl in danger for the sake of the mission. That was probably why the black phone had not sent any message.
By the time Chen Ge arrived at the Dongjiang Reservoir, the sky was completely dark.
Opening the window, he could clearly feel that the temperature here was much lower than in the city.
"Twenty-five in total," the driver looked at Chen Ge and said casually.
"Twenty-five? So expensive? Do you think I haven't been here before? "Chen Ge was looking around and didn't expect the driver to ask him for so much money.
"According to the meter, you don't need that much, but not many people are willing to come to Eastern Jiujiang Dam. There have been a few accidents in the past month, so people will increase the price when they drive to the edge of Eastern Jiujiang at night. Furthermore, I brought you here alone, so I'll be going back empty. I won't make much money." The driver was young. He placed both of his hands on the steering wheel and said impatiently, "Hurry up. It'll be dark soon, and the road won't be easy. This place isn't safe at night."
"You know it's not safe?" Chen Ge studied the driver. "Looks like your company hasn't done a good job educating your employees. You don't even know me."
The driver turned to look at Chen Ge with a frown. "Who are you?"
"If you don't want any accidents to happen, then follow the original price. If you want to rip me off, you've found the wrong person today." Chen Ge leaned back in the seat. "I don't have anything to do anyway, so I can stay here with you for the whole day. But you have to be careful. Eastern Jiujiang is really chaotic now, and anything can happen at night."
The taxi driver was one of the people who knew this city well. They traveled through the city every day, so they knew many things that normal people did not.
When Chen Ge said that, the driver's face turned ugly. He had run into a b * stard who was even more shameless than he was. The thing that made him break out in cold sweat was that he realized that Chen Ge had a point.
Why would a man come to a dam in the middle of the night with a backpack?
The more he looked at Chen Ge, the more he felt like Chen Ge was not a good person. However, he did not back down. "Since everyone is raising the price, I'll give you twenty."
"I'll give you as much as you deserve. I'm doing this for your own good because money earned against your conscience will run into ghosts when you spend it."
The two of them wasted some time, and the sky was turning dark. Chen Ge not only did not get out of the car, he took out a bunch of talismans and yellow papers with strange words from his backpack and started to study them.
The driver tried to talk to him, but he ignored him.
In the driver's eyes, Chen Ge had turned from a bad person to a madman. This was not a normal person. Which normal person would carry a bunch of talismans in their backpack?
"Fine, I guess I'm unlucky today." Chen Ge forced the driver to give in.
"You're still too young. Try to improve your service attitude in the future. Perhaps you'll run into me again when you're driving the night shift." After paying the fare, Chen Ge got out of the taxi. The driver looked at Chen Ge's face, and Chen Ge's last sentence echoed in his ears. For some reason, he felt a chill run down his spine like he had been cursed.
He cursed under his breath, and as if afraid that Chen Ge would hear him, he quickly drove away.
"Young and impetuous. One look and it's obvious that he hasn't been beaten by society. Thankfully, he ran into someone as mild-tempered as me. This should be a good thing for him." Chen Ge grabbed his backpack and walked toward the dam.
Eastern Jiujiang Dam was just a small dam. It was very close to Eastern Jiujiang, so people used to come here to swim and fish a long time ago. However, at some point, the number of people who came here suddenly decreased.
Standing next to the dam, Chen Ge took out his phone to use the flashlight. He noticed that there was a flash of light not far away from him.
Narrowing his eyes, Chen Ge used Yin Yang Vision to see clearly that there were two people fishing by the shore.
One was sitting on a stool, and the other was sitting behind him, watching.
After watching for a while, perhaps feeling bored, the person behind him silently left.
"I just said that this place is empty, and only two people came out." Chen Ge wanted to know more about the dam. These fishing enthusiasts should know something.
He hurried to the person who was fishing. The man was focused, and he did not even turn his head as he stared at the bobber on the surface of the water.
The sky was slowly covered by darkness, and the spot of light was very obvious on the dark surface of the water.
Moments later, the bobber suddenly sank, and a smile appeared on the man's face. "Finally, he took the bait."
