Chapter 231 Taking in

After receiving the blessing, Li Zhuo asked the ghost for some specific information, such as where Medina lived.

The ghost quickly shared a picture with him, through which Li Zhuo could roughly judge where she lived.

That's enough.

For a 'psychic' like him, the ghost has great trust:

"You have helped me so much and are willing to help me realize my obsession. I will tell you now where what you want is."

This is the first time that the Lord is willing to give a treasure before completing the task.

The ghost continued:

"I was in urgent need of money during my lifetime, but I was always in poverty. When I died, my money was useless, but with the power of gods and ghosts, I could tell you the location of a treasure."

This is also a kind of sadness.

Li Zhuo didn't know what to say.

Soon there was a spiritual wave coming from the ghost, which was something located in an unknown mountain somewhere outside Iligan City.

It was vaguely a reddish-brown cup, the material of which could not be seen, and it was buried in a cave.

I don’t know what it is, but I guess it should be quite valuable.

After the ghost sent this picture, there was another mental wave:

"Psychic, please help me take care of my poor granddaughter. I know not to disturb the lives of living people. They are also afraid of me. I want to leave forever."

Li Zhuo replied:

"Okay, peace of mind, see you again."

The ghost let go of its bonds, and the water coffin was quickly swept up by the waves, leaving the offshore area and drifting toward the depths of the Sulu Sea.

Li Zhuo watched it gradually move away, and finally disappeared behind the surging waves.

This is the fate of human beings. There will be a day when misfortune will end. It is rare for this poor man to let go of his ties and leave with peace of mind.

By this time, it was getting dark, and the lights on the yacht were all on.

Li Zhuo returned to the living room and began to ask the tour guide how to get to Iligan City.

After discussing with him for a while, Li Zhuo entered the bridge and asked the captain to return to Zamboanga.

The captain didn't have any objections. After a simple dinner, he turned back at a normal speed.

By around four o'clock the next morning, they had returned to the port of Zamboanga.

After Li Zhuo finished settling the bill, he and the tour guide got off the yacht.

That morning, he flew from Zamboanga to Iligan with his tour guide.

Iligan City is one of the most important cities in northern Mindanao. It is famous for its industry, producing steel, cement, and generating electricity for the entire Mindanao.

But it is also a tourist city, known as the Waterfall City, with beautiful natural scenery.

After Li Zhuo arrived in Iligan City with his tour guide, he spent a lot of money to hire four security guards from the local security company in the name of personal safety.

The Chinese are a symbol of wealth here. You must know that the Chinese in the Philippines only account for less than 2% of the total population, but they own more than 70% of the social wealth. It is really normal for a Chinese to hire security for personal safety.

, no one will think there is a problem.

Moreover, the security in the Philippines is not the same as in China. The security here are all certified to hold guns. They carry pistols with them and have the right to use guns.

The men sent by the security company were relatively strong. When Li Zhuo asked, he learned that they were all retired soldiers, and their combat awareness and abilities were much stronger than ordinary people.

Li Zhuo took the tour guide and security and went directly to the slums of Iligan.

There are five slums here, one of which is where Medina lives.

Li Zhuo asked the security guard to wait outside and walked in with the tour guide.

Not long after he walked in, he felt a sense of despair. There was garbage everywhere, and the extremely untidy environment made people feel bad.

According to the tour guide, the people here rely on urban garbage to survive, and they cannot even live without garbage.

The streets after rain are full of sewage, broken bicycles, scrap tires, and discarded plastic garbage are piled up randomly. The houses on the roadside can only be called temporary residences. They are all made of old plastic boards, wooden boards, and brick walls.

The wooden house is so dirty that it’s hard to even see it.

This kind of place is shocking to look at.

When the children living in the slums saw a group of people approaching, they all came out curiously to watch.

They are all dirty and their living situation is worrying, but to Li Zhuo's expectation, the adults and children here are relatively kind.

When they see the well-dressed Li Zhuo and the tour guide passing by, they will give way to the narrow road to facilitate their passage.

Turn another corner and walk through a smelly passage that is so narrow that it can only accommodate one person in a single file.

After passing through the narrow and winding corridor, Li Zhuo came to a tin house that had been built for perhaps thirty years.

He looked up at the house and found that its ceiling was rusted. When it rained, the people in the house would definitely get wet.

It was such a dilapidated house, but four families lived in it.

The tour guide stopped Li Zhuo and said that if he had anything to do, he could just go in and talk to him. A rich man like him should not go in this kind of place.

Li Zhuo shook his head, said nothing, and took the lead to walk in.

After entering, the whole room was dark and he couldn't see clearly. Li Zhuo asked:

"Where does Medina Gray live? Does anyone know?"

The tour guide translated the words, and Li Zhuo heard a little girl timidly replying something in the corner of the broken window sill.

The tour guide translated and said:

"The little girl said that she lived upstairs and climbed up the wooden ladder here."

Li Zhuo glanced in that direction and could vaguely see a little girl with darker skin and wearing a white shirt.

Li Zhuo said gently to her:

"Thank you!"

He had already adapted to the darkness in the room and noticed that the wooden board on one side divided the ground floor into two halves, with two families living in each.

At this moment, the tall and burly Li Zhuo walked in, and they all seemed very silent.

Li Zhuo nodded to them and then climbed the stairs to the second floor.

The entrance to the second floor is a hole of about one square meter. Only by drilling in can you reach the second floor.

This environment is really uncomfortable.

He climbed up to the second floor and became cautious when walking, fearing that he would step on the floor.

After the tour guide climbed up on hands and knees, Li Zhuo asked:

"Who is Medina Gray? I was asked to visit her."

He could see that the room was only about fourteen or five square meters, with all kinds of things piled everywhere, and there were two beds.

An adult woman was lying on one of the beds, moaning in pain.

There were no chairs, and there were two children sitting on the other bed, one was in his teens and the other was only five or six years old.

The older boy said:

"Medina is no longer here, she was sent away."

Was he sent away? Where does this poor child have any relatives? Where else can he go?

Li Zhuo followed up and asked:

"Where was she sent?"

"I don't know either. Dad sent her away, but she didn't want to. She left in tears."

Li Zhuo's heart tightened when he heard it.

The child couldn't explain. Li Zhuo ignored the unpleasant smell and walked to the woman's bedside and asked:

"Do you know where Medina went?"

The woman held her stomach, turned over with difficulty and said:

"I have duodenitis and it hurts so much."

Li Zhuo estimated that this was Medina's mother. This woman was sick.

The illness made her very uncomfortable, but being so indifferent to her daughter was enough to show her indifference.

Li Zhuo took out a stack of 1,000 pesos coins from his body and said:

"You just need to tell me where Medina went, and I will give you money for treatment."

The woman immediately said:

"Sir, please do me a favor. My enteritis will cost 40,000 pesos to be cured in the hospital. Can you give it to me first?"

40,000 pesos is actually only 5,000 yuan.

Li Zhuo took out half of the banknotes in his hand and threw it to her.

She hurriedly counted the money and found that Li Zhuo had given her 50,000 pesos, so she hurriedly stuffed the money into her pocket and said hurriedly:

"Medina is my daughter, and I love her very much, but I am so sick that I can't stop her even if I want. She was taken away by her stepfather today, saying she was going to be sold to a prostitute, and she was told to bring more every day.

The money goes home..."

When Li Zhuo heard this, he felt blood rushing to his head. What kind of beast would send such a young girl to a brothel?
