At dusk, the setting sun gradually sank into the horizon, and the imperial capital was undergoing silent changes.

Following the address given by the Secret Service, a dilapidated hut appeared in front of Chu Yao. A colorful light sign hung diagonally on the door saying "Sugar Water Shop", and a tricycle was parked at the door.

But the seemingly deserted front door was actually crowded with monsters and monsters.

"Why are you squeezing? I was here first."

"Nonsense, I've been in this position for a year."

"You still have the nerve to talk for a year, but I've been waiting in line for ten years."

"Who can compete with you? This position was passed down from my great-grandfather. At that time, you were still wearing crotchless pants!"

Chu Yao was watching with great interest. Unexpectedly, after seeing her, a ghost shouted as if he saw the Lord of Hell: "Here comes the one! If you want to live, run!"

In an instant, a long line of ghosts were scurrying away. When Chu Yao saw this, he immediately used a "binding" talisman to restrain a sallow-faced and skinny ghost. A starving ghost with slender limbs.

When the starving ghost saw Chu Yao approaching, he burst into tears.

Chu Yao asked speechlessly: "Am I scarier than you?"

"No, no, no, no, fairy, your beauty and beauty are so beautiful, how can you compare with such a despicable thing like me!" The starving ghost shook his head desperately.

"Then why are you running?" Chu Yao asked strangely.

"Oh, this... what should I say? Who in the imperial capital has never heard of you." The starving ghost was so frightened that he trembled and said, "Your portrait is also in the ghost capital. The news has spread throughout the country, and if anyone dares to run away without hiding from you, they will be instantly destroyed!"

"What have I done to scare ghosts like this?" Chu Yao was a little surprised.

"Dudududududu...it's all what the Drowned Ghost said. I don't know!" The Starving Ghost said tremblingly, "He said that you could kill all the ghosts on the ghost bus with a snap of your fingers. You blew it." You can kill the Rakshasa Ghost King with just one breath, and even the leader of the Qiming Society was so frightened that he had a nervous breakdown when he saw you!"

Chu Yao was a little speechless. He didn't expect that the drowned man had some ability to spread rumors.

"Isn't the Drowned Ghost in the Secret Service 996 every day? Does he still have time to chat with other ghosts?" Chu Yao asked.

"He thought 996, the Secret Service works from nine to five, and gets off work at that time! So he would come out at night to chat with his brothers when he had nothing to do. Then... everyone would naturally know about you," said the starving ghost.

Chu Yao was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him and asked directly: "Okay, let's get down to business. Why are you queuing here?"

According to the latest information from the Secret Service, after Tianxi Club was seized, some people on the transaction list had visited this candy shop, so they suspected that the owner behind this candy shop was from the Qiming Society.

But there seems to be some kind of formation set up here, and the investigators can't find the entrance.

Of course, the formation at the door couldn't stop Chu Yao.

"Hey, you have found this place, how can you still not know what this is for?" The starving ghost laughed sarcastically, "Although the owner of this store is a disciple of the Qiming Society, he has long been out to work alone, and The relationship with the Qiming Society is not that deep. But the transactions are still exactly the same as in the Qiming Society."

"Tell me carefully, what kind of transactions are they?" Chu Yao asked.

"Exchanging things for things. Ghosts like us either want to be reincarnated or want to take revenge on our family. As for people, they want more, all kinds of things."

"Oh? Then what do you need to pay?" Chu Yao asked.

"Well, I'll give you whatever you have. The boss basically doesn't pick. He doesn't want anything but human money." The starving ghost explained, "There really isn't any. I can just sell my organs or my lifespan. Ghost I can only sell myself and become someone else’s ghost.”

"So that's it." Chu Yao nodded thoughtfully. If she didn't gain much from her boss, she could at least get tickets to the ghost market.

"So you are here to exchange things today?" the starving ghost asked cautiously, "To tell you the truth, Boss Xu only opens his shop once a month, and receives three customers each time. He has already booked the first two. There are already spots, and we ghosts are here to grab the last spot.”

"I want to change." Chu Yao nodded. Seeing that the starving ghost was frustrated, she asked again, "What do you want to change?"

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. When I was a child, there was a famine in my family. I didn't have a full meal until I was fourteen or fifteen years old." The starving ghost recalled the past with a bitter look on his face and said, "Later, everyone in the village went to dig up Guanyin soil to eat. I also ate together. Who knew that this stuff couldn't be digested? After eating it for three or four days, my stomach became as bloated as a ball, and finally it swelled to death. After I died, my stomach has always been in tatters. I missed what I ate, so now I am starving to death."

"Who is a ghost, who doesn't know that ghosts are the most tortured? But I haven't had a full meal while alive, and I will continue to be hungry after death. Who can bear this?" The starving ghost said sadly, "Even if it can make me full for once, and then it will be reduced to ashes, it's still worth it!"

Chu Yao lowered his eyes slightly. Most ghosts have obsessions in their hearts, so they keep wandering around the world. This starving ghost did nothing bad during his life, but he has been tortured.

Although she is not a great benevolent person who saves all sentient beings, since she has met her, she should be regarded as a good person.

"After you fulfill your wish, go and be reincarnated as soon as possible."

"Ah?" The starving man looked at the walking figure in astonishment. He felt that his abdomen suddenly became warm. He looked down in disbelief and saw that the originally ruptured abdomen was intact!

He just said a few words and someone helped him heal his stomach?

The starving ghost had tears in his eyes. After being a ghost for so many years, all he encountered were either insidious and cunning fellows, or Feng Shui masters who wanted to take him in without even saying a word.

There are such good people in the world. He gratefully kowtowed a few times in the direction Chu Yao left.

Chu Yao was at the end of the queue. Coincidentally, the two people in front of him were also human beings, and both were middle-aged.

The person at the front of the queue was a graceful and dignified lady. She waited until nineteen o'clock, when a clear bell came from the shop, and then the lady walked in.

After less than five minutes, she withdrew again in disappointment.

Chu Yao met her face to face and found that her identity was very unusual. Her husband might even have some blood from the previous royal family, and then there was a sense of familiarity.

But she was sure that she had never seen this woman.
