38: Check that car! Liu Linger and the other two got in the car again.

But that strip of cloth was something he found in the Ferocious Beast Forest. The forest is so dangerous; if anything were to happen, then... bah, bah, bah, Liu Ling'er won't get into trouble!

"My people found out that Liu Ling'er went missing two weeks ago. It's said that Xiao Yue of the Xiao Family wanted to marry her, but she refused. She had an argument with her family, ran out of the Wall in a fit of pique, and headed for the Ferocious Beast Forest."

Ximen Chuifeng said seriously.

Xiao Shen had given him so much compensation, so he would naturally investigate with all his might.

Xiao Shen's eyes widened when he heard this: "So that's how it is..."

It was actually like this!

He wondered why Liu Ling'er would suddenly run to the forest. It turned out the Xiao Family had pressured the Liu Family.

When he was in the Xiao Family, he didn't like to show off and was always very gentle with people from the other three great families, never using his power to bully others.

Mainly, he felt he didn't have much power. Besides being a bit stronger than his peers, the Xiao Family he relied on was no different from the other three families.

He didn't expect that as soon as he was driven out, Xiao Zhenxuan would impatiently let Xiao Yue suppress the other families and even try to forcibly marry Liu Ling'er.

Xiao Shen remembered clearly that when he and Liu Ling'er were together, Xiao Yue always followed behind him, calling Liu Ling'er 'sister-in-law.' Now, however... human hearts are truly the most incomprehensible things.

"So where is she now? Have you found out?" Xiao Shen pressed on.

"Hmm, after Liu Ling'er ran out, she encountered a powerful ferocious beast. She was beaten to within an inch of her life..."

Before Ximen Chuifeng could finish, Xiao Shen suddenly stood up, his expression full of worry.

"Calm down, she's fine now." Ximen Chuifeng patted his shoulder and said indifferently.

This customer was good in every way, except he was easily excitable.

"Okay, continue." Xiao Shen sat back down, calming his emotions.

Liu Ling'er's martial artist rank was only Level Four. Rashly entering the Ferocious Beast Forest, even the outer circle, was extremely dangerous. He only regretted not being by Liu Ling'er's side at the time, otherwise, he would never have allowed her to get hurt.

"Although she was seriously injured at the time, luckily she was rescued by a family, and her injuries quickly recovered."

Upon hearing Ximen Chuifeng's words, Xiao Shen felt like he had come back to life.

That's great, Liu Ling'er is fine!

"Then she stayed with that family. I found out the address, it's right here."

Ximen Chuifeng gave Xiao Shen the slip of paper with Brother Chu's home address.

"I'm going to find her now!" Xiao Shen shot up, not forgetting to add, "Thank you!"

Watching Xiao Shen leave like a gust of wind, Ximen Chuifeng spread his hands helplessly: "Why does every customer lose their composure so easily?"

Actually, this job was quite easy. After all, Liu Ling'er was a well-known person in the Wall, so investigating her wasn't difficult. Plus, she was injured in the Ferocious Beast Forest, making it even easier to investigate using ferocious beasts.

However, while investigating Liu Ling'er's "disappearance," Ximen Chuifeng learned from his contracted ferocious beasts that a train had suddenly appeared in the forest at some point. It seemed people rode it every day, and the ferocious beasts dared not approach.

This greatly piqued Ximen Chuifeng's interest. For those in their line of work, curiosity was paramount, so Ximen Chuifeng decided to investigate that train!

...At this moment, Lin Feng didn't know he was being watched. But even if he did, he wouldn't say anything. After all, the more people who knew about him, the more passengers he could attract. Ideally, everyone would come ride his train, and then he could upgrade faster.

After an entire night of maintenance yesterday, Lin Feng's departure time today was 8 AM. No one had come to ride the train yet at this hour, so Lin Feng leisurely strolled through the forest.

This Ferocious Beast Forest was actually very large, with an Outer Circle, an Inner Circle, and a Core Zone.

However, he didn't dare enter the Core Zone yet, fearing his defense level wasn't high enough and he'd be smashed by ferocious beasts if he went in.

"Sister-in-law, look, it's right there!"

As soon as Liu Ling'er saw the tin train, she pulled Zheng Jinfeng and rushed over.

Although Zheng Jinfeng always heard Brother Chu talk about it, this was her first time truly seeing this mysterious and magical train.

However, the train looked a bit dilapidated.

"Brother Chu, Sister-in-law, hurry, the train is here, let's get on quickly!" Liu Ling'er waved behind her.

Chu Feiyue smiled wryly: "When you came yesterday, you were so unwilling and didn't want to get on the train, but today you're even more eager than me."

Liu Ling'er stuck out her tongue: "Isn't it because I've tasted the sweetness?"

However, Chu Feiyue thought about it carefully. He seemed to have been the same way. The first time he rode the train, he absolutely refused to spend spirit stones, but then he truly enjoyed it later.

What's money? Practicing once on the train can be equivalent to a month outside. One hundred twenty low-grade spirit stones, that's all, it's worth it!

"Welcome aboard this train. Please sit tight and hold on. Please purchase a ticket upon boarding. The ticket price is one hundred twenty low-grade spirit stones."

No matter who got on, Lin Feng's first sentence was always to urge them to buy a ticket.

"Here, two tickets."

Liu Ling'er grandly pulled out two hundred forty low-grade spirit stones. Although one hundred twenty of them were given by Brother Chu, it didn't stop her from appearing generous.

"So expensive." Zheng Jinfeng gritted her teeth. Although she knew there was abundant spiritual energy inside the train, her years of frugal habits still made her feel extremely pained.

Liu Ling'er smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you have to think of it this way: Brother Chu comes to ride the train every day, spending one hundred twenty a day. You've only come once, so what's wrong with paying for a ticket? It's just a drop in the bucket."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jinfeng felt it made a lot of sense: "You're right, I've only ridden it once, and he's ridden it so many times. It's too late to feel bad now."

Moreover, that scoundrel Chu Feiyue actually lied to her, saying one ride cost one hundred fifty, swindling her out of so much money. If it weren't for Liu Ling'er, she would still be in the dark.

"Here's your ticket." Liu Ling'er handed Zheng Jinfeng her ticket.

"Passenger Name: Zheng Jinfeng, Boarding Time: Apocalypse Year 308, May, Number: 060"

Zheng Jinfeng was extremely surprised to see the words on the ticket: "My name can actually be displayed on this!"

Just then, Chu Feiyue also got on. Hearing Zheng Jinfeng's words, he said: "Yes, I don't know how this train knows our names. I've never told it."

"There are too many mysteries about this train, but it doesn't matter. As long as we can absorb rich spiritual energy on the train every time, it's a profit."

After all, this is the apocalypse, and strength is the most important thing. Only with benefits can it last long.

And as it stands, absorbing spiritual energy on the train hasn't brought them any side effects, it just makes them want to ride the train more.
