But on that matter, Zhang Lan had told Mo Hua not to mention it, so Mo Hua had no choice but to nod and say,
"He didn’t teach me anything good!"
Situ Fang silently took note, planning to go back and complain to a few uncles and elders of the Zhang Family.
She would accuse Zhang Lan of speaking irresponsibly and leading children astray outside.
Unaware of Situ Fang’s thoughts, Mo Hua asked again,
"Sister Situ, what kind of person is the Court Leader of South Yue City?"
"What kind of person?" Situ Fang was briefly taken aback.
"Like..." Mo Hua thought for a moment and came up with several descriptors, "Is he sly or cunning, greedy or not, deep or shallow, bad-natured or not..."
"Not a single good word in there..."
"I don’t think he’s a good person, so I didn’t use good words."
Situ Fang felt helpless but thought it best to tell Mo Hua,
"The Court Leader of South Yue City, his surname is Qian..."
"Qian?"
"Yes." Situ Fang nodded, "Coincidentally, his surname is Qian too, but he likely has no marital ties to the Qian Family of Tongxian City."
"The Court Leader, he..."
Situ Fang hesitated before lowering her voice and saying,
"It’s not that he’s outright bad, just greedy for wealth and pleasure-loving, coveting enjoyment, and not really concerned with the affairs of the Taoist Court..."
Mo Hua roughly understood and said, "So he’s incompetent."
"You can’t really say he’s incompetent..."
"So he only has the ability to amass wealth and enjoy himself?"
Situ Fang nodded, "Pretty much."
Mo Hua thought for a moment, then added, "In that case, your Court Leader must have also accepted quite a few Spirit Stones from the Lu Family..."
Situ Fang shook her head, "I have no evidence, I can’t just say anything. But logically speaking, it’s impossible that he hasn’t received any."
Mo Hua nodded, mulling over something in his mind.
Situ Fang grew curious, "Why do you ask this?"
Mo Hua’s eyes shifted, and he replied with a sly smile, "Oh, it’s nothing."
Situ Fang couldn’t figure out what Mo Hua was alluding to, and couldn’t help but ruffle Mo Hua’s hair in exasperation,
"Aren’t you afraid of zombies? You should hurry back."
"Mm-hmm."
Mo Hua bid farewell to Situ Fang with a smile and then departed.
After Mo Hua left, he did not go back but went to the other end of the mine and sat on a large rock, seemingly waiting for something.
A quarter of an hour later, Bai Zisheng came along with Big White, dragging a horse cart with him.
This horse cart was new, fairly simple, and was used by cultivators to transport goods and store cargo boxes.
Mo Hua waved, the cart stopped, and Bai Zisheng asked,
"You weren’t discovered, right?"
"Yeah."
Mo Hua nodded, then ran behind the big rock, deactivated the Concealment Formation, revealing two coffins concealed beneath the formation.
Each of these coffins contained several Walking Corpses.
The formations on the chests of these corpses were relatively intact.
Mo Hua wanted to take them back for thorough research.
This matter had to be concealed not just from the Taoist Court but also from other cultivators, to prevent astute individuals from guessing their intentions.
Although it might be an unnecessary precaution, being careful and meticulous in their actions was always safe.
Bai Zisheng lifted the coffins onto the cart.
Mo Hua cast a Concealment Formation, and the coffins disappeared from sight, hidden from others.
But Big White was discontent.
Big White was very reluctant to pull the cart with zombie coffins, those defiled objects.
After a long time coaxing and offering some Spirit Grass to Big White, it finally relented for the sake of Mo Hua and the Spirit Grass.
So Bai Zisheng drove the cart, with Mo Hua and Bai Zixi sitting inside, watching over the coffins.
The three of them stealthily took away the coffins and zombies without anyone else knowing.
When entering the city, they were interrogated by the Enforcement Leader.
