“Is this the Grain Town?”

The next morning, Lin Feng arrived in Grain Town. It was several kilometers away from Liucheng Base City.

There were quite a few people in Grain Town.

Moreover, there were some powerful ghost masters guarding the town.

“Strange, why don’t these ghost masters handle that starving ghost themselves?”

Lin Feng thought.

“Are you the ghost master sent to investigate the food shortage? So young? Can you handle it?”

Upon seeing Lin Feng, a guarding ghost master showed a skeptical look.

Lin Feng replied, “Of course.”

The ghost master said, “Since you’re so confident, then go ahead. Follow this road up; there’s a cave where the food is stored. That creature is hard to find, so you might need to stay there for a few days. Our ghost spirits aren’t good at finding sneaky ghosts like this one, and we can’t leave Grain Town for too long, so we’ll leave it to you.”

“Is the food stored on the mountain?”

Lin Feng asked.

The ghost master said, “Of course. If Grain Town falls, people can hide in the cave. It’s well hidden, but there are gray flags along the way; just follow the flags.”

“Alright!”

Without wasting any time, Lin Feng set off along the path.

He understood why the ghost masters didn’t handle it themselves; the starving ghost was too good at hiding.

These ghost masters found it troublesome.

“Damn, this kid is only fifteen or sixteen, right? And he’s going to deal with a dangerous-level starving ghost? Boss, can he handle it?”

As soon as Lin Feng left, a few ghost masters gathered together, watching his back.

“Whether he can or not, it’s his choice. Every year, over a hundred ghost masters die in Liucheng Base City, and during large-scale ghost tides, deaths and injuries can exceed a thousand. If he wants to risk his life, there’s nothing we can do.”

The leading ghost master said in a deep voice.

Under the gazes of the ghost masters, Lin Feng quickly disappeared into the mountain.

Along the mountain path, there were indeed gray flags here and there.

Lin Feng checked the time; it was 10 AM, but the sky was still gray.

It seemed that the only place with sunlight was the inner city of Liucheng Base City.

However, after climbing the mountain, Lin Feng saw a patch of not-so-bright sunlight in an area of large rice fields.

“For sunlight to appear…you would probably need to use some strange techniques.”

Lin Feng thought.

The wilderness in this world wasn’t greatly affected; the plants were even denser. Around noon, sunlight would briefly penetrate for about half an hour.

This time was also called the “safe time” by ghost masters.

Of course, it was only relatively safe.

Because some ghosts had means to block sunlight, and some were said to even appear in sunlight.

After enjoying the natural scenery for a while, Lin Feng continued upwards.

After ten minutes, Lin Feng found the place.

It was indeed a hidden cave.

The entrance was small, but inside it was large.

If Grain Town fell, sealing the entrance with a gold-painted door and painting the outer walls with gold paint would still be relatively safe.

Although some ghosts could pass through rocks, they wouldn’t if they couldn’t sense living humans inside.

There were two middle-aged men guarding the cave.

“Sir, are you here to deal with that ghost?”

Seeing the badge on Lin Feng’s waist and his meticulous clothing, the two middle-aged men cautiously asked.

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Aren’t you afraid here?”

One middle-aged man said, “Of course we’re afraid, but we have orders. However, the ghost doesn’t seem to harm people; it just keeps eating the food. Even if we go in, it’s useless; the food keeps disappearing unless you masters come. Then it vanishes.”

“Why not move the food?”

Lin Feng asked.

“The mayor said if we move the food, it might go to another granary. It’s better to keep it here with this food and then eliminate it.”

The middle-aged man said.

Lin Feng nodded and said, “I’ll go in and take a look first.”

“Alright, we’ll open the door for you.”

The two middle-aged men opened the cave door.

Lin Feng walked in.

The cave was very dry.

There were many aluminum granaries inside, all filled with food.

However, several granaries were empty.

“In just one week, it has eaten thousands of pounds of food.”

The two middle-aged men followed behind, speaking with distress.

Lin Feng walked and looked around.

The starving ghost didn’t show up, and they had no idea where it was.

After looking for a while, Lin Feng took out the ribbon bow.

“Tongtong.”

Lin Feng called out.

Tongtong appeared!

The temperature in the cave instantly dropped by several degrees.

The two middle-aged men involuntarily stepped back a few paces, their faces turning pale.

“Tongtong, can you find it?”

Lin Feng asked.

One advantage of a high bond was that Tongtong could understand some of Lin Feng’s words.

Unlike other ghost spirits that only appeared when the ghost master was in danger.

Tongtong stood there, staring at the cave.

Then, she moved.

She turned around and looked outside the cave.

“Outside?”

Lin Feng asked.

Tongtong didn’t answer Lin Feng’s question. In fact, he didn’t know if she could speak yet, but she quickly reacted.

Her white dress started to turn red.

Seeing this, the two middle-aged men felt their mouths go dry. Even knowing Tongtong was Lin Feng’s ghost spirit, they couldn’t help but be scared.

Soon, Red-dressed Tongtong appeared.

Then, her forehead changed.

There…

Split open.

A black ghost eye appeared.

When they saw this ghost eye, the two middle-aged men’s legs began to tremble.

“Huh, when did Tongtong get a third ghost eye?”

Lin Feng wondered curiously.

The next second.

An unexpected change occurred.

Tongtong raised her hand and pointed to one of the middle-aged men.

A strange ghostly sound came from that middle-aged man’s pocket!

Oh!

The starving ghost was hiding in his pocket!
