As Yue Jiu Nian walked, she said awkwardly, "I'm not a master, I don't know how to catch ghosts."
"Oh, you don't need to be modest. I saw it all. I know that people like you are usually very low-key, hehe."
Yue Jiuling realized that this woman was deliberately following her, and guessed that she had something to say, so she didn't bother with small talk and asked directly, "Is there anything else? I really don't know how to catch ghosts, and I'm not some kind of master. I have other things to do, so please stop following me."
The woman sensed that Yue Jiuling's tone was a bit off, so she stopped joking around and said in a low voice, "That female ghost has actually been following me for several days. Master, you just chased her away, but I'm very afraid that she will come back to cause me trouble. Can you help me?"
Yue Jiu recalled the ghost's last look and guessed that the ghost would probably come back to find this woman. She laughed and said, "Heh~ Even if she comes back, there's nothing I can do. I really don't know how to catch ghosts. You should find a professional to help you."
“No, it won’t work,” the woman suddenly grabbed Yue Jiuling’s hand and said with a pleading tone, “I’ve already asked several Taoist priests, but they’re either swindlers or terrible. None of them are useful. Only you can drive her away.”
Yue Jiu Nian still smiled and said, "But I have no choice. Don't follow me. I really have other things to do."
The two walked for a while and soon arrived at their destination. When the woman saw that Yue Jiuling still looked like she couldn't help him, she suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "Wait, um, I have money. I can give you money. Master, please help me."
Originally intending to mind her own business, Yue Jiu Nian's eyes lit up and she stopped in her tracks upon hearing the word "money." She turned around and asked with a smile, "How much?"
The woman knew that Yue Jiu Nian meant she was willing to help, so she immediately held up one finger and said expectantly, "Ten thousand yuan. Actually, I'm still a student, so I don't have much money."
Thinking of the pitiful few hundred yuan in her phone, Yue Jiu nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, but I have other things to do right now. You have to wait for me to finish my business first."
The woman nodded happily upon hearing this: "Okay, then I'll follow you from now on, just in case that female ghost suddenly appears and comes looking for me. By the way, my name is Li Jiajia."
They had arrived at Jiang Hu's building. Yue Jiunian pointed inside and said to Li Jiajia, "My name is Jiang Jiunian. I'm going in. You can come with me if you want." With that, Yue Jiunian went straight inside.
The receptionist was still on duty. When she saw Yue Jiunian come again, she just smiled at Yue Jiunian and didn't say anything.
Yue Jiunian didn't say anything, but led Li Jiajia to sit on the guest chair next to her. She decided that she must wait for Jiang Hu to come out here.
In another city, Yue Jiuling didn't care that Yue Jiunian didn't reply to her message. She sat in the car with her eyes closed, resting and dispersing her spiritual energy to sense her surroundings.
Soon, the car stopped, and when Yue Jiuling opened her eyes, she found that they had arrived at the missing person's home.
Yue Jiuling and Bai Xinyu got out of the car quickly. After parking the car, Yinni pointed in one direction and said, "Let's go that way."
The monkey demon family lived near the vegetable market, surrounded by ordinary residential buildings. The area was crowded and diverse, with a night market every evening, making it a lively place.
The monkey demon family lived on the third floor of an old building. The monkey demon was the only family living on the third floor. When Yue Jiuling and her group arrived on the third floor, they went straight up and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock knock~"
Who is it?
Soon, an elderly person's voice came from inside the house.
Hidden in front of the door, he said, "Sir, we are from the management office. We are here to investigate Mr. Hou's disappearance."
Upon hearing the hidden self-introduction, the person inside quickly came out to open the door. The visitor was an old female monkey with about five hundred years of cultivation. She seemed to have some physical disability. After opening the door and letting the person in, she limped back.
Bai Xinyu, holding a recorder, asked, "Grandpa, are you all alone at home?"
The old mother monkey gestured for everyone to sit down. "Yes, my son suddenly disappeared, and my daughter-in-law took her two grandsons out to look for him. They haven't come back yet."
"Oh, I see. Could you tell me if there was anything unusual about your son before he went missing?"
"Can...."
Ya Zi and Xiao Bai Cai formed a team. They were responsible for an ordinary human, but the two of them were not very familiar with the roads in J City. It took them a long time to find the house. They asked around for a long time but did not get any useful information. So, the team of two newcomers returned with their mission in failure.
On the way back to the management office, Ya Zi, the glutton, suddenly got hungry and wanted to buy something to eat. He thought that since he wanted to eat, he couldn't let Xiao Baicai go hungry, so he kindly asked Xiao Baicai, "Baicai, I'm hungry and I'm going to buy something to eat. Do you have anything you want to eat?"
Xiao Baicai rarely eats outside and usually drinks water. He's a true little fairy, so when he heard Ya Zi's question, he just shook his head and said, "No need, I'll just drink water, thank you."
When Ya Zi heard this, she thought that he usually only drank water and didn't eat much, so she said, "Okay, I'll buy you a bottle of water. Wait here for me for a bit."
After Ya Zi finished speaking, he left, intending to buy some meat buns to fill his stomach, while Xiao Baicai obediently sat by the roadside waiting for Ya Zi to return.
