Zhu Yunwen then continued to interrogate the man in black:
"Where do you take these young and beautiful women using this method?"
Without a second thought, the man in black said:
"I work for Lord Ghost-Faced Rakshasa. He is a messenger of the underworld and has many evil spirits under his command..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Qingzhu kicked him again, cursing angrily:
"I told you to stop spouting this nonsense, but you won't listen, will you?"
The man in black looked at Zhao Qingzhu with fear. He never expected that such a beautiful woman could be so ruthless and beat him at the drop of a hat.
Zhu Yunwen then spoke up:
"Stop trying to fool us with your nonsense. I probably know more about the existence of demons and monsters than you do. Now, tell us the truth: where did you take those young and beautiful women?"
The man in black looked aggrieved and said:
“Sir, I’m not lying. We’ve witnessed the power of the Ghost-Faced Rakshasa. He can fly through the night sky, and wherever he goes, ghost fires follow. It’s terrifying.”
Seeing the deep fear on the man in black's face, a fear that didn't seem feigned, Zhu Yunwen concluded that the man in black might not be lying to him.
But this man in black himself had been deceived by the so-called Ghost-Faced Rakshasa.
So he might actually believe that the charlatan behind them was a real ghost.
Regarding this issue, Zhu Yunwen didn't dwell on it, but instead said to him:
"Answer me, where did those girls you took go?"
The man in black shook his head and said:
"I don't know. My job is to find some pretty women, then use some methods to help them capture them and hand them over. As for where those women go, I have no idea."
Zhu Yunwen was silent for a moment, then said:
Where is the transaction taking place?
The man in black answered without hesitation:
"In a dilapidated temple outside the city."
"How was the transaction conducted?" Zhu Yunwen asked again.
The man in black then said:
“I took the woman I captured to the dilapidated temple, and then I left. After that, when I got home, I would see some silver lying around. This silver was my hard-earned money.”
The key point is that this silver was mostly retrieved from ancient tombs, which proves that the Ghost-Faced Rakshasa Lord is truly not human.
It's clear that this man in black firmly believes that the so-called Ghost-Faced Rakshasa is a messenger from the underworld.
He constantly tried to confirm this to Zhu Yunwen, but Zhu Yunwen simply didn't believe him and said to the man in black:
“Take us to that temple; we need to find out the truth.”
The man in black shook his head:
"Impossible. I've almost never seen them. They won't show up if you go. If they do, it means you're going to die."
At this moment, Zhao Qingzhu suddenly said:
"I have an idea."
She had barely opened her mouth when Zhu Yunwen shook his head:
"No, that's too risky."
Zhao Qingzhu looked at Zhu Yuntong and said:
"Only in this way can we truly come into contact with those so-called ghosts and monsters."
Zhu Yunwen remained silent for a moment, but Zhao Qingzhu said:
"As long as they're not real ghosts, they can't do anything to me. Besides, you'll be in the shadows, you have a gun, so we have nothing to be afraid of."
Hearing Zhao Qingzhu say this, Zhu Yunwen remained silent for a while, then realized that it made sense.
With Zhao Qingzhu's martial arts skills, there is probably no one in the world who can hurt her.
Unless the other party is some kind of demon or monster, it is indeed impossible for them to cause any harm to Zhao Qingzhu.
Zhu Yunwen had to admit this.
So Zhu Yunwen said:
"Alright, remember to be extra careful. If things don't go well or you can't handle it, it's best to leave."
Zhao Qingzhu said:
"Don't worry, I used to roam the world quite often, so I understand this principle."
Hearing Zhao Qingzhu say this, Zhu Yunwen felt a little relieved.
Then, Zhu Yunwen casually tied the rope that the man in black had brought earlier to Zhao Qingzhu's body. He didn't tie a knot properly; he just tied it perfunctorily, and it looked fine.
However, Zhao Qingzhu could easily break free if she wanted to.
After tying Zhao Qingzhu up, Zhu Yunwen said to the man in black:
"Now take her there, to the temple where the transaction took place."
Seeing this, the man in black was also somewhat bewildered and asked in confusion:
"What are you doing? Knowing the problems involved, why are you still actively getting involved?"
The man in black really didn't understand what was going on. He thought that any normal person, once they realized that the other party was targeting these young women, would definitely run as far away as possible.
But why are these two people in front of me tying me up, like lambs to the slaughter?
Zhu Yunwen's face darkened, and he said:
"Stop talking nonsense. Just do what I tell you to do. It's not your place to question anything."
The man in black immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say anything more. He then stood up, holding one end of the rope in one hand, and walked to the window. He first looked outside to make sure no one was around, then said to Zhao Qingzhu:
"I have to hold you and use my lightness skill to jump down."
Zhao Qingzhu snorted coldly, grabbed Zhu Yunzhu, stepped on the windowsill, and easily jumped down from the window, then floated lightly to the ground.
