"We can't help it. They are Party B and have to hand over the work to Party A within the deadline. If they are delayed for one day, they will have to pay a fine for one day. It's good enough if they pay the fine and don't make any money. If they have a reputation for delaying the construction period, who will still cooperate with them? That's why they are so angry."

Deng Guangxia is not a leader who is indifferent to worldly affairs. As the leader of Longhu Mountain, all the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain have to contribute to the development of Longhu Mountain.

Especially great masters like Lianyi, who basically accept all the tasks issued by the government. On the one hand, the remuneration is quite high, but mainly because they can enjoy the shade under the big tree, and no one dares to act wildly in their territory of Longhu Mountain.

Of course, as you become more famous, you will also receive some private tasks. Whether you accept them or not depends on your own willingness. You cannot afford a high-level master just because you have money, such as Lianyi.

After listening to the headmaster's explanation, Lianyi was quite interested and asked directly:

“Did you do a background check?”

Lianyi asked this to confirm the authenticity of the mission.

Because there have been cases before where the mission content was not what was said.

"Xiao Liuzi went to check it out, and it's true. I heard that the compass used for testing was almost flying. It seems to be a powerful ghost. As for the specific situation, you will have to wait until you go and see it to find out."

"Okay, I'll take this mission then."

Lianyi accepted the task and went down the mountain the next day without any delay.

At the foot of the mountain, there was a middle-aged fat man wearing black-framed glasses, who was spinning in circles. He was obviously very anxious and kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. It was obvious that he had been waiting for a while.

After Lian Yi walked over slowly, he finally reacted and immediately stepped forward and asked attentively:

"Excuse me, are you Master Wu Lianyi?"

"yes."

"Oh! I've been waiting for you. Please get in the car!"

The fat man immediately opened the car door and invited Lianyi to get in, then he got in. After getting in, he immediately told the driver to drive, while explaining to Lianyi:

"Master Wu, the construction site is quite far from Mount Longhu. If everything goes smoothly, we will arrive in the afternoon, so we are a bit rushed. Please understand! Of course, we have arranged food and accommodation for you when we get there."

"I don't care. Just make your own arrangements. What's your name?"

Lianyi glanced at the fat man and asked with a smile.

"My name is Zhang Degui, and I'm the person in charge of the construction site. Because of the haunted incident at the construction site, I was so exhausted that I haven't had a good rest for more than half a month. I've lost a lot of weight. It's really hard for me!"

Zhang Degui complained helplessly.

Lian Yi glanced at the overly obvious swimming ring on the other person's body, the corners of her mouth twitched, and then she continued to ask:

"When exactly did the incident start?"

"The first accident happened a month ago, when bricks fell from above but didn't hit anyone, so I scolded the workers and deducted their wages for the day. They were quite unconvinced at the time and said it was not their fault.

But for the sake of construction safety, I can only make an example of one to warn the rest and let them all raise their safety awareness. Besides, many people saw the bricks falling, so these workers had no choice but to accept the punishment.

I didn't think it was a big deal at the time, but now it seems that it was just a test. Three days later, something happened to the construction team at night.

First, someone was carrying sand and gravel up, but he kept going in circles and almost fell down from the elevator on the third floor with his vehicle. Then someone broke his leg. He said that he was pushed down from behind, but he was the only one there at the time.

Soon after that, people working the night shift encountered ghosts frequently, and they were so scared that they dared not work the night shift. The boss was rushing to meet the deadline, so he had to invite workers from other places. As a result, someone died this time, and I was almost scared to death.

People from the police station also came, but they found nothing. Later in the day, an accident happened at the construction site. In the end, the workers would rather not get paid and ran away, so the construction site was forced to stop.

Our boss didn't dare to hire any more workers. He thought of finding someone to take a look at the situation first, and then hire someone to start work after the troublemakers at the construction site were dealt with.

It’s just that the people I invited were incompetent and didn’t solve any problems. Finally, I heard about Master Wu, so I specially came to invite you to come.”

While wiping his sweat, Zhang Degui explained the whole cause and effect of the matter clearly.

"Do you have construction drawings? Let me take a look."

Lian Yi asked directly.

"Yes, yes. I brought it with me because I thought the master might need it."

Zhang Degui immediately took out a roll of drawings from the back seat and handed it to Lianyi.

Lianyi opened it and looked at it carefully, but didn't see anything special.

"Did you encounter anything special when you were digging the foundation?"

Lianyi closed the drawing and continued to ask.

“No, everything went smoothly because the land is in a good location. After completion, it will be developed into a large aerobic residential area, built on the mountain, and it is very classy.

After construction began, many units and companies came to check out the site, hoping to sell it to their employees as welfare housing in the form of group purchases. It can be said that it became popular before it was even completed.”

Zhang Degui said immediately.

"Could it be that your competitors are deliberately causing trouble?"

Ripple asked, resting her chin on her hand.

"It's possible! But who has such a great ability?"

Zhang Degui’s boss had also considered this issue, but he had never had a clear goal.

"Tell me about all the rival companies of your boss."

"Okay, Guangde Group first."

Zhang Degui kept talking all the way, spitting all over the place, and finally he finished talking about their rival companies.

Among them, one company caught Lianyi's attention, Zheyuan Co., Ltd. The legal person of the company is Zhang Zhe. It is said that this person is the son of the boss and is just a name. He died unexpectedly half a year ago, but the company has not yet changed its name.

Lianyi narrowed her eyes and suddenly looked forward to this mission.

When they arrived at the city where the construction site was located, the sun had already set. Zhang Degui provided one-stop service and took Lianyi to have a meal first, and then to the five-star hotel where they were staying. After Lianyi took a short rest, around twelve o'clock, Zhang Degui took her to the construction site.

This time, Zhang Degui drove the car himself, mainly because no one else dared to go to that place.

"Master Wu Wu, are you sure you don't need me to wait for you?"

The closer Zhang Degui got to the construction site, the more his tongue became tied.

"If I ask you to wait for me, would you dare?"

Ripple asked with a smile.

“I don’t dare!”

This time the other party answered very straightforwardly.

"Then what are you asking?"

"At least it's just a formality."

Zhang Degui slipped up and said it directly.

"Okay, when we get there, drop me off and come pick me up tomorrow morning."

"good!"

After arriving at the place, Lianyi got out of the car. Zhang Degui turned the car around, said "take care" to Lianyi, then stepped on the accelerator and fled.

Lianyi looked at the dead silent construction site in front of her, and in a blink of an eye, she opened her third eye. Looking at the ghostly aura surging in the construction site, she was a little surprised. She checked the surrounding terrain again and she was sure that this place had been artificially transformed into the intersection of the yin and yang worlds, and those coming and going were all dead ghosts.

"interesting!"

Lianyi walked towards the center of the construction site. After she entered the construction site, her figure disappeared. (End of this chapter)
