Chai Xu tried not to care about the joke between Chang Ziming and the girl, because he didn't understand it at all, but he understood what Chang Ziming said just now.

So he asked tentatively.

"You mean, what's in that soul-nourishing porcelain... Did you run out? Does that make any difference?"

seemed to be very satisfied with Chai Xu's upper path, so Chang Ziming didn't go around in circles, and directly took something like a newspaper from the counter behind him and threw it in front of Chai Xu's eyes.

Chai Xu inexplicably picked up the newspaper and looked at it, and the headline on it was impressively written.

[Five traffic rear-end collisions and missing vehicles occurred in three months, and the cannibalistic 307 National Highway]

This report is impressively written that a national highway facing north of City C has had several traffic accidents in just three months, including rear-end collisions, overturns, serial collisions, and even a large truck and two small cars missing, which are still missing, which is very strange.

Chai Xu's brain was spinning rapidly, this should be considered a relatively serious accident in C City, maybe it was just because he had just come to C City, so he hadn't heard of it.

But Chai Xu immediately linked this incident with what Chang Ziming just said, and he knew that Chang Ziming would definitely not let him watch the news for no reason.

I don't know why, this Chai Xu thinks that no matter how big it is, in his eyes Chang Ziming, it is estimated that it is nothing, unless it is related to his divine and Shinto ways.

"Could it be that these events are all things that escaped from this porcelain?"

Chang Ziming smiled and didn't answer, just looked at Chai Xu, as if waiting for Chai Xu's further analysis.

“... In other words, these souls are not harmless, on the contrary, some of them are so powerful that they can really hurt people like the unjust ghosts and ghosts in those stories!?"

This time it was the girl Fu Lingxue who answered Chai Xu, and I saw that she still had a piece of meat wrapped in her mouth, and her voice was still a little slurred.

"Theoretically speaking, there shouldn't be any desolate souls, if all the soul officials can do their duty, let the soul master perform the soul canon for all the souls, and place them in the right horcruxes to wait for the next reincarnation, there will be no problems in this world. ”

Theoretically... This word made Chai Xu feel very intriguing, so he continued to ask.

“... That is to say, the current situation is no longer in the normal category? Didn't do your duty, or did you?"

Speaking of this, Chang Ziming was a little embarrassed, he showed a somewhat lost expression for the first time, but it was only for a moment, and the next second he changed to that unrelated expression and said.

"Hey, if you want to say that the soul officials are not loyal to their duties, this is also wronging them, you think, the souls in this world are increasing every day, and now it is still a peaceful and prosperous era, which is a little too busy, not to mention the time of war thousands of years ago, even if the soul officials at that time were powerful, there was a trance that would let the desolate souls take advantage of the loopholes, that is, at this time, your ancestors voluntarily asked the soul officials to share their responsibilities, and after a series of tests, the soul officials chose a number of families in all corners of this world, and taught them the techniques of soul detention, soul binding, soul raising, soul borrowing, soul suppression, and soul destruction, these families are the famous families that you humans have passed on, well... You don't need to know that much about this for a while. ”

After saying that, he took a puff of cigarette, and seeing the contempt on Chai Xu's face, he seemed to understand something and immediately added.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have the idea of excusing the soul officer, and it is precisely because of that group of soul officials who have made a deal with humans that there will always be an irreparable hole in the management of the soul... It is a luxury to keep human beings awake all the time. ”

Listening to Chang Ziming quoting the lines of a recent movie, Chai Xu felt a little fresh, does this man also watch movies? It looks like an old antique that does not eat fireworks in the world, and it is also the most stubborn old antique, it looks good, but this character is really not flattering.

"Then since you know that all these disasters on this national highway are caused by the desolate spirits that are wandering abroad, why don't you hurry up and bring them back, and let them run rampant here for three months... Aren't you amazing?"

When Chang Ziming heard this, he laughed hesitantly, and scratched his head a little embarrassed at the same time.

“... Alas, it's not that I don't want to, alas, it's a pity that I can't do it. ”

Chai Xu felt inexplicable, he didn't know Chang Ziming's ability, but it shouldn't be low, why couldn't he even control these few desolate souls? Suddenly, Chai Xu's heart was a little disappointed in Chang Ziming.

"Eh, boy, I can tell you, don't think about it, it's not that I can't bring those souls down, on the contrary, if they dare to appear in me... Well, as long as they can enter the confines of City C, I can make them fly away with a slight movement of my little thumb, alas. ”

At the end, Chang Ziming sighed.

Chai Xu didn't ask further about the reason, and it was Fu Lingxue who answered the question in his place.

"He's useless, his hand can only cover this small C City now, even if he takes a step out of the boundary of C City, he can't do anything, he can only look at those things arrogantly, and he can only stare at him with the middle finger. ”

Chang Ziming seemed to prove something, patted the table and stood up, stepped on the stool with one foot and said to Chai Xu in an accentuated voice.

"Eh, don't listen to this conscienceless little bastard nonsense, if it weren't for the conspiracy of a few old immortals in that big battle, which hurt my body, I would at least have no problem protecting this side of the land of Shenzhou. ”

Looking at Chang Ziming's angry appearance, Chai Xu suddenly felt a little happy, he was not in a hurry, put the newspaper on the table, leaned back with his body, and said in a posture of an uncle.

"The hero doesn't mention the courage of the past, that is, you are now a tiger with a chain, and you only dare to be powerful in the cage?"

Chang Ziming was not annoyed by Chai Xu's attitude, but said with a smile.

"Hey, what you say is what, in short, I said, I have a plan for you, of course, with Officer Chai's intelligence, you should also know that my plan for you must be related to these souls. ”

"Don't panic yet, I still can't fully believe you, don't look at me like this, I'm not slow, I did see evil ghosts and spirits, and I also saw the heaven and earth in the clay sculpture, but these... It's too complicated, my brain is not very good, I can't fully trust you, and I don't know, I have any good plans, I'm just a young policeman who just graduated, what do you want me to do for you, is it possible, I can still catch those souls for you, don't be funny. ”

Chai Xu, who was originally just joking, found that Fu Lingxue and Chang Ziming were both looking at him with interest, and without saying a word, he suddenly felt a chill down his back.

“... You don't really want me to catch those souls, wait, you're kidding, are you?"

Chang Ziming got up with a smile, walked to the counter, took out an abacus, put on his pair of thin-rimmed gold-rimmed glasses, and said while fiddling with the abacus.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, Officer Chai, my part-time job is very well paid, just take the few little souls that are making trouble on the national highway, if you can bring it back to me, I will weigh it, if the soul is good enough and pure enough, I will give you a good reward." ”

After saying that, he looked up at Chai Xu and raised his hand to compare a five.

“... Fifty to five hundred?... Wait, you're giving me 5,000!? That's two months' salary!"

Tsuneko understood him.

"Can you have a little imagination, these souls, I estimate, there must be one anyway, 500,000. ”

The sheer number made Chai Xu feel a little dizzy in front of him all of a sudden, but reason pulled him back to reality, and he said after a pause.

“... High returns are inevitably accompanied by high risks, which proves that these souls are indeed very dangerous, I, although I am short of money, but I am not willing to lose my life for money, besides, I still don't know where I can help you, you can also see, if it were not for your two ancient coins, I would have become food for the ghost in the mirror now... Don't you think it's a bit hasty to leave things to me?"

Chang Ziming sighed, and walked out from behind the counter again, there was already an extra thing in his hand, and when he opened his palm, Chai Xu found that it was a pendant.

The black string and the diamond-shaped pendant strung together are as dazzling as black gemstones.

"You... Put it on and try it first. ”

Chai Xu wanted to ask more, but Chang Ziming's eyes became rare and serious, obviously this matter cannot be said, helplessly, if this man wants to harm himself, then there are many opportunities, so there is no need to be so careful.

So he put on the necklace, and when the falling heart just touched his chest, Chai Xu suddenly felt a powerful impact force tearing his body, and he was about to scream in pain, but he felt that this huge force was instantly suppressed by another even greater force.

Chang Ziming looked at Chai Xu in such a situation, his eyes were full of excitement, and he muttered to himself.

"That's right, it's you, it's really you, in this world, there is really no coincidence. ”

When the power in his chest dissipated, Chai Xu looked at Chang Ziming in a daze, not quite understanding the meaning of what he said just now, but this pendant was too weird, he almost fainted in pain just now, this feeling he didn't want to experience the second time, so he wanted to take off the necklace.

Suddenly, Chang Ziming's hand suddenly pressed his arm, and then he listened to the handsome man say softly.

"Wear it, this thing is proof that you can help me. ”

Chai Xu looked at Chang Ziming inexplicably, not understanding what he meant, Chang Ziming slowly let go of his hand, and saw that Chai Xu had dispelled the idea of taking off the necklace, so he nodded with satisfaction.

"Just this weekend, you just take your little ghost and go to the national highway for a walk, first go to investigate the situation, remind you first, don't underestimate those things, don't worry, I said before, something happened, with me, you don't have any risk. ”

But Chai Xu was still a little worried, he looked at the girl Fu Lingxue and said.

“... Why, you don't let Lingxue girl go, she's much better than me..."

Chang Ziming snorted and laughed.

"She? she's more incompetent than me, and she doesn't even want to live when she leaves City C. ”

This time, the girl who was remembered did not refute, but silently swallowed a piece of meat, and there was a trace of imperceptible sadness in her eyes.
