Zhao Youliang, of course, could not answer Chen Fu's question, but Mo Zhe Ma Mingyang murmured something.

Chen Fu then realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I knew it, I knew it."

"But I trust Xiao Jiu to get things done; he's much better than my little brat."

As they were talking, everyone suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly. It turned out that the crack that had appeared earlier had widened again and was constantly spewing out black gas, which condensed into a huge skull shape above the town.

To be precise, the end of all the cracks connects to the town.

It was as if the town was about to devour everything.

Seeing this, Zhao Youliang suddenly realized that the large array set up by the prison outside the town could no longer suppress the evil town, and everything was about to erupt.

Surprisingly, even the amiable Chen Fu noticed this and sighed softly.

"What are we going to do? How many people will die...?"

The Mohists uphold the world; this is the most fundamental principle of the Mohist school.

Therefore, after hearing Chen Fu's words and considering his personality, Ma Mingyang couldn't help but try to speak.

"Logically speaking, given your status, Master Chen, you should not be involved in any karma."

"However, since the thief dared to lure you into this trap, then this matter is a different story."

Chen Fu is kind, but he's definitely not stupid. How could he not understand the hidden meaning in Ma Mingyang's words?

This is clearly an attempt to get someone to help Zhao Youliang's gang and innocent civilians.

After a slight hesitation, Chen Fu asked weakly, "Brother Ma, can I do it?"

"You know I can't fight, I just do small business to make money."

Ma Mingyang had been waiting for these words, and upon hearing them, he immediately volunteered.

"Why would Master Chen need to do it himself? No need, absolutely no need!"

"As long as you nod, I, Ma, will take care of everything!"

As soon as Ma Mingyang finished speaking, two more people walked in: Liu, the master of paper-making, and Zhang Chao, the master of corpse-driving.

Manager Liu laughed heartily, hugged Chen Fu, and then said, "That's right, that's right! As long as you agree, leave the rest to us!"

In contrast, Zhang Chao was much more proper: he bowed respectfully to Uncle Chen, his eyes filled with tears.

The reason for this is that Zhang Chao came from a poor family and depended on his mother for survival since childhood.

After meeting Chen Fu, Chen Fu provided him with food, drink, and university education, treating him even better than his own son.

Chen Fu was also very excited to see Manager Liu and Zhang Chao, especially Zhang Chao.

He pulled the other person close and asked them with concern, "Child, are you doing well? Is your mother doing well too?"

"Sigh, it's been several years since Uncle died, and I haven't seen you all for so long!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chao nodded repeatedly: "Uncle, don't worry, we're all fine."

"If I told you I died before you, would you believe me?!"

"What?!" Everyone was stunned when Zhang Chao said this.

Before anyone could react, "Zhang Chao" had already grabbed Chen Fu with a sinister grin and lifted him up like a chicken.

After Zhang Chao, Manager Liu also stood up abruptly and stopped Zhao Youliang's gang from pursuing them.

"Hehehe, if any of you dare to make a move, we'll strangle that Chen guy!"

"Even if his son has great abilities, he can't bring the enemy back to life, can he?"

(The original text of "The Record of the Underworld" is: "When a person dies, he becomes a ghost; when a ghost dies, he becomes a '聻'; when a '聻' dies, he becomes a '希'; when a '希' dies, he becomes a '夷'; when a '夷' dies, he becomes a '微'; when a '微' dies, he becomes formless.")

Now that things have developed to this point, even a fool can see that Zhang Chao and Manager Liu are fake, they are all imposters.

As Zhao Youliang slowly moved forward, approaching "Zhang Chao," he questioned him in a deep voice.

"Who are you? Why did you kidnap Grandpa Chen?"

"Aren't you afraid of the young general's wrath?"

"Afraid of him?" Zhang Chao chuckled coldly upon hearing this: "We weren't afraid of him twenty years ago, and we're even less afraid now."

"Don't even mention him, so what if it's Hua Jiunan? As long as Chen Fu is in our hands, they won't dare to make any rash moves, hehehe!"

"Otherwise, do you think we went through all this trouble just for you little brats?"

"You're not worthy!!"

In just a few words, Zhang Chao had already led Chen Fu out of the private room and to the stall outside.

Upon seeing this, the group of ghosts sitting there immediately surrounded them.

Although they did not know Chen Fu, they knew they could help Zhao Youliang.

Zhao Youliang's enemies are their enemies.

Unfortunately, the fake Manager Liu was really powerful. With just a roar, a ferocious beast head appeared out of thin air.

With a single, wide-open mouth, it swallowed several old ghosts.

This scene immediately frightened the other ghosts, who hesitated and dared not get too close.

Seeing this, the fake shopkeeper Liu chuckled coldly: "A rabble... Ah!"

Before he could finish speaking, the big yellow dog that had been gnawing on a bone under the table suddenly jumped out.

With a loud thud, it bit down on "Manager Liu's" ankle.

The big yellow dog was already mysterious, but it has become even more powerful after its cultivation improved recently.

With just one bite, he bit off "Manager Liu's" entire left foot and spat it on the ground.

The fake Zhang Chao clearly hadn't expected that there was such a fierce figure in Zhao Youliang's gang.

Without hesitation, he immediately bent down and shouted, "Aren't you coming up!"

Suddenly, "Manager Liu," missing a leg, darted onto "Zhang Chao's" back.

The two seemed to be one person, and with a whoosh, they fled towards the edge of the town.

They carried the unconscious Chen Fu and fled out of the town.

"If you escape today, what will become of the prestige of the Mohist school!"

Enraged, the Mohist Ma Mingyang pulled out a chariot from somewhere and jumped onto it.

The two mechanical horses pulling the cart roared to the sky and chased after it.

Behind Ma Mingyang, two more angry roars rang out, and it was indeed Zhang Chao and Manager Liu.

They arrived "late," clearly sensing what was happening here, and immediately tried to rescue Chen Fu.

Zhao Youliang's gang also wanted to give chase, but they saw Xiao Jiaozi staggering towards the barbecue stall with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.

"Liang, Quantum Bro, something's happened at home... They're all dead..."

"What?!" Zhao Youliang was shocked upon hearing this and wanted to ask more questions, but then he saw Xiaojiaozi groan and faint, falling to the ground and revealing her true form.

"Little dumpling!" Zhao Youliang's eyes were bloodshot as he quickly picked up the little mouse and fed it a pill.

Looking up, one could see a deathly aura swirling above the paper-making shop, the mournful atmosphere almost solidified into a tangible form.

This is a phenomenon unique to situations where too many "living beings" die in a short period of time.

Outside of the book: My physical condition has been extremely poor lately, and I've been suffering from severe insomnia.

I'm already taking medication and feeling much better. Thank you all for your concern.

In addition to some other unavoidable circumstances, I was unable to update for half a month. I'm sorry everyone!

Rest assured, my old friends, I don't have the bad habit of not finishing my work.

Thank you again for your messages and care!
