At this moment, a servant hurriedly came in and handed Lian Daning a note.

After Lian Daning saw it, his face changed greatly, and he whispered something to Chen Yixue and Meng Fanjun, and then pointed with his finger and pointed outward again, meaning to let him go out with him.

Besides, when he heard it, Lian Daning told Chen Yixue and Meng Fanjun that they had urgent official business to deal with, and they had to use it for a while, so these two people naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked him to take care of himself.

Besides, I don't know if there are any urgent official duties to borrow from him, and in the past, everything in the yamen was handled by Wen Bin. Wen Bin also looked at Lian Daning, with a hint of dazedness on his face, and some eagerness, hoping that Lian Daning would take him.

Lian Daning ignored him, just walked out, and when he saw that he was following up, he quickened his pace.

"Teacher, what's the urgent business?" he asked after leaving the door.

"Did you hear that?" said Lian Daning in surprise.

He spoke far away, and it stands to reason that he should never have been heard.

Besides, he said with a smile: "On this occasion, the teacher hurriedly resigned, of course, there is an urgent official business that cannot be delayed." He didn't want to say that his hearing was so amazing.

"Well, you're so splendid, I can't hide anything from you. But I've been waiting for this for decades, and it's finally here. Lian Daning said as he walked, and the officials who were waiting for him outside the door also followed.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

"Do you remember the headless unsolved case I told you? This case has made me haunt me to this day, but unfortunately I have never encountered such a case in the future, and I don't want another one to come out now. Lian Daning said.

Besides, when I think about it, Lian Daning is talking about the case of a family of three who committed suicide in a secret room, the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and sister-in-law all died extremely strangely, and the doors and windows were closed, without any signs of outsiders invading.

Suicide is a common occurrence, especially for women, but all three of them committed suicide dressed as if they were going to a festival or a feast, with strange smiles on their faces.

"Where did it happen?" and was also excited, at that time, Lian Daning said the case and asked him to help find out the idea of solving the case, but unfortunately he couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Liuhe County, not far away. Lian Daning walked, and his big sedan chair had arrived in front of him. He pulled him into the sedan chair together, and then got up and left.

"Who is the victim this time?" he asked, after sitting down.

"It's also a family, and there are more people, a total of more than ten people. Lian Daning's face suddenly showed compassion, and he sighed, as if he had foreseen that this was another headless unsolved case.

"So many people have been killed? And he was surprised.

"It's not just a big case, it's an unsolved case, a strange case, a headless case, I told Ying Tianfu about the case of the year, and let them notice me if there is a similar case, so after they found out about the scene, they hurriedly notified me. We need to hurry up, or the scene may be destroyed. Lian Daning said.

Besides, he nodded, and then he understood why Lian Daning took him instead of Wen Bin.

Moreover, there was actually speculation about the case that Lian Daning said decades ago, but his speculation was too mysterious, and he couldn't say it if it was groundless.

The sedan chair walked not far away, and changed the carriage again, after all, the speed of the carriage was faster, and the people who followed it were also replaced by the speed and tolerance of riding horses, rather than the servants who hugged each other.

Liuhe County is one of the counties under the jurisdiction of Yingtianfu, in the Liuhe District of Nanjing City in later generations, but it did not belong to Nanjing City at that time, and the county under the jurisdiction of Nanjing City is Jiangning, so Nanjing is also known as Jiangning City.

On the way, Lian Daning gave him a brief explanation of the case.

The crime occurred in a village, and the murder was a local wealthy family, which also had hundreds of acres of land, half of which were cultivated by themselves, half were hired laborers, and there were wives and concubines at home, but unfortunately none of them escaped, and all of them died in the sealed inner room.

If it weren't for the impatience of the hired workers waiting outside the door and sending someone to jump over the wall to check on it, I don't know when the murder of this family would have been discovered.

It's a pity that the found helper went crazy when he came out, and then two more people went in to check, but they all fainted inside, and it took a long time to crawl out, and all he shouted in his mouth: "Ghost, ghost ......" and then fell unconscious, and is still in a coma. So later, no one dared to go in to check, so they had to report to the official.

After Liuhe County came to check, he was also frightened, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he hurriedly reported to Ying Tianfu, because Ying Tianfu's ability to solve cases ranked first in the country, and it was still above Shuntianfu.

After receiving the report, the prefect of Tianfu was stunned in his heart, he was afraid that the report of the people below was untrue, so he hurriedly brought someone to check in person, and after seeing the scene at the scene, he ordered his subordinates not to do anything, and then hurriedly sent someone to invite Lian Daning.

Besides, he smiled bitterly and said in his heart, the three people who were the first to be found were obviously overly frightened, how could it be that ghosts hurt people?

When the car arrived at the head of the village, the prefect of Tianfu came to greet him with a group of accomplishments, and then the magistrate of Liuhe County came up to meet him.

"My lord, to be honest, when you first told Xia Guan about that strange case, Xia Guan was still a little unconvinced, and he didn't want to really see it with his own eyes. Ying Tianfu prefect said with palpitations on his face.

"The same as the case I told me?" asked Lian Daning.

"It's basically the reproduction of the case that adults said, but there are too many people who died this time, not three, but thirteen. Ying Tianfu prefect said miserably.

"My lord, this must be the work of a demon, and it can never be a crime that a human can commit. The magistrate of Liuhe County said with a blue face.

"Does Master Sun want to push the case to the demons, and then let the case go unresolved, so that the victims will be wronged forever?" said Lian Daning angrily.

"Don't dare, the lower official just thinks like this, even if it is done by the demon, the demon must be brought to justice, the lower official has invited the monk to practice, no matter how much it costs, it is necessary to let the victims be wronged. The magistrate of Liuhe County hurriedly bowed down and made a statement.

Lian Daning scolded nonsense in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he also suspected that it was a ghost back then, but because he firmly believed that Zi Bu was silent, so he still handled the case according to human ideas, but unfortunately he didn't start at all, and that case became his heart disease, often waking him up from his dream at night, as if the three dead people were complaining to him in a dream.

Besides, I also laughed secretly in my heart, but it is understandable that once people feel that things are beyond their ability or beyond the norm, they will beg for the Dharma of the Sangha, which is just to dispel their doubts, and there is no other use.

"Who is this little adult?" Ying Tianfu prefect saw that he was standing with Lian Daning, and the others were standing behind, so he asked.

"He's a student of Benguan. Lian Daning replied.

The prefect of Ying Tianfu couldn't help but take a step back, of course he knew that besides, not only because of his fame, but also because he personally handled several headless cases of the Zheng family, which was directly related to the situation.

However, he was faintly happy in his heart, saying that evil ghosts still need to be grinded by evil people, and in his eyes, they are evil people who are more terrible than evil ghosts.

He is still suspicious of the Zheng family's case, and he has never been able to find any clues to start, so he has to give it up.

"It's a great talent, look up for a long time. The magistrate of Liuhe County said with a smile.

"The adults are polite, the boys don't dare to be. "Besides, I returned the favor.

Lian Daning walked forward with him, and the people from Ying Tianfu and Liuhe County followed closely. Along the way, the villagers looked at them curiously, and it was rare for people here to see so many official hats gathered together.

The villagers naturally knew what happened in the village for a long time, and they all talked about it, and the folk spread it, and it was even more mysterious, and many people said that there were blue-faced and fanged ghosts dancing, and it was these ghosts who took the lives of that family.

Some people say that it is a group of female ghosts, all of whom are hanged ghosts with tongues sticking out half a foot long, and they are the ones who have come to find a stand-in.

Folklore has a long history and is believed that only by catching another living person and encouraging him to hang himself can he be liberated and re-enter reincarnation.

The women and girls did not dare to show their faces, but they all watched the group from behind the doors and windows, and the children ran and jumped back and forth after them, and only they were not affected by these spirits.

Walk to the east of the village, I saw a family, has been surrounded by many tolerances, there are a few groups of monks nearby, are watching the arrival of Lian Daning and his party, they did not do anything, but the full set of guys who do things are next to them, there are some black dog hooves piled on the ground, and there are purple-brown liquids in large bowls, which should be black dog blood, it is said that these things are the most evil-warden, any evil ghost is afraid of these filth, but I didn't see the woman's menstrual blood paper, it is estimated that Lian Daning and others will blame when they see it, so they hid it.

Folk evil is basically these things, and these magic weapons can not only ward off evil, in the encounter with artillery bombardment, but also used to resist the attack of artillery, the theory is this, artillery is the world's most yang thing, belongs to fire, these evil holy things, especially women's menstrual blood to the yin thing, just restrained.

Even absurd, such as Zhang Xianzhong, who attacked the artillery of the official army, actually grabbed hundreds of women and let them expose their lower bodies to the cannon, saying that it was so that the cannon could be out of order, and if it was bombarded, the cannon would burst and only kill his own people.

"My lord, this is here, this family has the surname Dongfang, and has lived in Liuhe County for three generations. "The magistrate of Liuhe County came up to practice Daningdao.

"Oh. Lian Daning sighed, he looked at the courtyard of the house with the door closed, and suddenly felt cold on his body, even he felt that it was cloudy inside, as if there were really ghosts in it.

The surrounding tolerance catch fast is also everyone's face is blue, and the villagers are even more convinced, these officials are also frightened by ghosts, only the faces of people who are frightened by evil ghosts will be like this, generally speaking, isn't the evil ghost a blue-faced fang, and bruising is the exclusive sign of ghosts.
