Chapter 109: The Land of Chaos

It was just after noon when we arrived at the coffin shop.

From a distance, I saw the door of the coffin shop open.

Suddenly, I felt an inexplicable panic in my heart.

He quickened his pace and entered the coffin shop.

Zhong Ling was sitting on an expensive-looking mahogany chair, holding a cup of tea, looking leisurely.

There is already an extra set of tea tables in the shop, which must have been added today.

She crossed her legs and didn't get up when she saw me. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Hey, you just came now, why did you bring your girlfriend with you?"

Feng Yu saw a woman with exquisite makeup sitting in my shop, and her face suddenly fell.

The two of them looked at each other, looking at each other up and down. I seemed to see a struggle between women that I couldn't understand.

"This is the designer in charge of the new decoration of this shop, Zhong...Sister Zhong, this is my friend, named Feng Yu."

But the atmosphere was too tense, so I introduced him quickly.

Feng Yu blinked and said softly: "It's our first time meeting you, so please take care of me."

Zhong Ling avoided her eyes, lowered her head and continued to make tea: "Yeah."

She looked at me again, her eyes still very arrogant: "Boy, come and sit down first. My time is very precious."

I glanced at Feng Yu. She was a little overwhelmed. After our eyes met, she immediately said: "Then I won't disturb you. You can chat slowly."

But Zhong Ling raised her red lips and said, "No need, just stay here and listen together. Judging from your looks, we will have to share joys and sorrows in these things in the future."

A blush suddenly appeared on Feng Yu's face.

Now that the atmosphere has calmed down a bit, I took her and sat down on a chair on the side.

Although Zhong Ling has a bad temper, I have to say that her tea-making skills are very professional. Watching her make tea, I feel a sense of pleasure.

She pushed two cups of prepared tea in front of us.

I took a sip and my anxious mood eased a little: "Sister Zhong, I'm going to be honest, I want to know what the gate of life and death does. Can you tell me?"

She smiled and asked: "Before asking me questions, why don't you tell me how you know about the door of life and death?"

I made up two random sentences: "I studied under Chen Daozhang and experienced many lives and deaths with him. After he went to wander around, I used my own way to find out what happened to me. It was almost all people from the life and death sect who were responsible.

.”

Zhong Ling glanced at me with squinted eyes and spoke in a strange tone: "Well, Daozhang Chen...ha, so that's it. Then it's not surprising that you were targeted."

I was a little surprised: "Taoist Master Chen is compassionate and promotes good and eliminates evil. How come he is the reason why I am targeted?"

Zhong Ling took a gentle sip of the tea in her hand: "He is indeed a master, but the more he does this without asking for anything in return, the more people he will offend, especially in a place like the Gate of Life and Death."

"The Sect of Life and Death you are talking about is not actually an exact organization. It has no leader, no organization and discipline. If you must, you can understand this place as a market."

"Anyone on the path can find their ideal commission here to earn what they want. At the same time, you can also issue commissions yourself, as long as you feel that you can pay the corresponding price."

"And, the most important point, the person who issues the commission can be a person or not. Regardless of life or death, regardless of type, regardless of purpose, as long as an equivalent price can be paid, the commission can be issued. Here, besides chaos, there is only

Lower profits.”

I touched my chin: "You mean those who came to harm me before were not necessarily their own will?"

Zhong Ling nodded.

"Boy, I thought before that you had some abilities and were not ordinary people. I never thought that you didn't even know this. How did you manage to survive today?"

She looked at me like a country kid who had never seen the world.

"I'm a newcomer, and Daochang Chen didn't tell me much, so he left in a hurry. If I had known so much, I wouldn't have come to see you now, sister."

She looked me up and down a few more times and rubbed her arms: "You talk so nicely, I'm still a little used to it."

I smiled: "So, sister, you don't mind if I ask a few more questions, right?"

She nodded slightly.

"I want to know who commissioned those guys who came to harm me, and what should I do?"

"There are two simplest ways. Either you catch the client, or you go to the gate of life and death and ask the information dealers. It's just... whether they know and dare to say it, that's another question.

It’s happened.”

I looked at Zhong Ling, and there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.

It seems like she must have guessed how I found out her identity.

I squinted my eyes and raised a smile: "Sister, when are you free, let me go and see the market."

Zhong Ling didn't expect me to respond like that, and her expression was a little surprised. Finally, a smile appeared on her face: "Okay. Then it will be tomorrow, next Monday, then you will be alone..."

"Please let me go with you." Suddenly, Feng Yu, who had been silent all this time, said.

I looked at her in surprise.

"Miss Zhong, you are right. There will be many times where we share joys and sorrows in the future, so let me join you."

I was confused: "Sister, the place I am going to this time may not be that safe. You are unarmed. If you come, I may not be able to..."

She looked at me with a serious expression: "Don't call me Senior Sister, just call me Yu'er. Even if I don't go this time, other things will come to your door in the future. You might as well let me know more about something."

Isn’t it?”

I was speechless by what she said, and quickly looked at Zhong Ling asking for help.

On the other hand, Zhong Ling just showed an expression of watching a good show and didn't intend to pay attention to me at all.

My eyes were wandering around, but I couldn't ignore Feng Yu's gaze on the side.

Finally, I nodded: "Okay, Sister Yu'er."

Zhong Ling also looked like she was watching the excitement and didn't mind the trouble. She clapped gently, with an irrepressible smile on her face: "Okay, okay, that's what young people should do. It's better to have more adventures."

With that said, she stood up and walked to Feng Yu, and took out an earring with a silver-white pearl on it.

"Little girl, I appreciate you, so I give you this thing. It will definitely come in handy."

Feng Yu took it carefully and thanked her politely: "Thank you, sister."

Then Zhong Ling slapped me on the back again: "I have something important to do tonight, so don't come looking for me."

Then she stepped on her high heels and left.
