Wucheng Hou was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses, and muttered, "Is there anything else about this? Are you talking about this is a powerful ghost or a demon of the White Lotus Sect?"

"Are the White Lotus Sect demons very powerful?"

Besides, after thinking about the various legends of the White Lotus Sect, it is indeed very evil, but he has not seen their kung fu with his own eyes, and this time the murderer's ability is what he has seen with his own eyes.

"It doesn't matter if it's powerful or not, it's all flat anyway. Wu Chenghou said disapprovingly.

"So 200 is enough?"

Besides, thinking that the Wucheng Marquis Mansion could also make up two hundred elite cavalry, if it was not enough, he could borrow troops from the Zhongshan Palace, after he saw the scene of the case, he didn't think that the government could do something, this kind of case is really beyond the ability of the government.

As for the people under him, first, he hadn't seen them, and secondly, Zhou Dingcheng was not here, and he couldn't give orders, and Zhou Dingcheng was the only channel to convey his orders.

"It should be enough, if it's not enough, you can use five hundred elite cavalry, if you think it's not enough, if you really encounter this kind of mysterious demon you said, then you have to use the three musket battalions, under the firepower of the three musket battalions, even those who are beaten with iron have to turn into molten iron. Wucheng Hou groaned.

"Is there a musket battalion in Nanjing? Aren't the three battalions unique to Beijing?" he asked.

"How come, there is also a musket battalion in Nandu, just like Beijing, muskets and artillery are the same, although Nandu is said to be a companion capital, after all, it is also one of the capitals, and it has to protect the mausoleum of Taizu. Wucheng Hou said.

"But can the musket battalion borrow it?" asked incredulously.

"Of course you can't borrow it, but if you really find the heinous demon you said, that's our business, and of course the musket battalion is famous, you don't need to borrow it, you have to use it. Historically, as long as there are demons similar to the White Lotus Sect, they will be eliminated at all costs. Wucheng Hou said.

Besides, rest assured, although he is not really ready to borrow the power of the Governor's Mansion, it is always good to have this one more.

The biggest problem now is not how to destroy that demon, but how to find him.

"Since you want to do this, just keep an eye on that demon, as long as you find his traces, I will keep him from escaping. Wu Chenghou assured.

"Thank you, big brother. "And thank you sincerely.

"Thank me for what to do? If you really want to do this, you are helping me to make meritorious contributions. Wucheng Hou laughed.

After Ying Tianfu dissected all the corpses, he did not find the cause of death, and all the corpses were not injured inside and out, only a strangulation mark on his neck, but he thought that it was left after death.

After the autopsy results came out, the people agreed that this was a typical case of evil ghosts asking for their lives, not human. No one can take a person's soul out of their body without harming him, only a legendary ghost can do it.

Now it is the Yamen, Ying Tianfu, and Liuhe County who are jointly handling the case, headed by Lian Daning, but the specific affairs are still handled by Ying Tianfu, because Ying Tianfu is the most powerful in terms of case-handling capabilities and resources.

"My lord, even if you find a mask that can confirm that it is related to the case, you can't assume that it is man-made, not a demon. Ying Tianfu prefect said when he reported to Lian Daning.

Confucianism does not deny ghosts and gods, Confucius said: "Respect ghosts and gods and stay away." "Confucian people also like to talk about ghosts and gods, the Jin Dynasty Ganbao's "Sou Shen Ji", Dongpo's "Dongpo Zhilin", Pu Songling's "Liao Zhai Zhiwei" are all works with the theme of ghosts and gods, and in the folk, the legends and superstitions of ghosts and gods are inseparable from actual life.

Lian Daning was silent, not only did he believe it, but when he encountered the first case, he didn't think it was a ghost asking for his life, but it was man-made, if he thought it was a ghost asking for his life, he didn't have to worry about it for twenty years.

But now there is no empirical evidence, he can't convince others, he can only hope that there will be progress there, and he is still at a loss for the time being.

"My lord, do you want to find the masters of the Heavenly Master Sect to exorcise the ghosts?" asked the prefect of Tianfu.

He remembered that during the Zheng family's serial murders, even the monks and Taoists who invited to exorcise ghosts and disasters were scared away, and this time the evil ghosts were obviously more powerful, and they had to be taught by the ancestor Heavenly Master Zhang Tianshi and several masters under him to do it.

These masters are not easy to invite, but to play to the emperor and come forward by the imperial court, Zhang Tianshi still has to give face, after all, he is the head of Taoism in the world, and this kind of thing should have been in his charge.

"Wait a little longer, now you still look for clues according to the crimes committed by the wicked, and you really can't find it. Lian Daning had no choice but to deal with it first.

The prefect of Tianfu nodded and obeyed, but in his heart he had already given up the investigation of this case.

It's not that he is disrespectful, but he really can't help it, the last time the Zheng family's case has broken his record of being undefeated, it's like forcing him to swallow a dead fly alive, he looks at it and gets angry, it's not that he has prejudices about it, but when he sees it, he naturally thinks of that case.

Now there is another case that is even more unsolvable, which is equivalent to forcing him to swallow a dead rat alive.

He is now indescribably sad and indignant, and he cannot complain to anyone. After thinking about it, Lian Daning's life is not easy, and it is no surprise that this case will weigh on his heart for a lifetime and become a nightmare for his life.

"My lord, there is another matter that the lower official has been puzzled about. "The prefect of Ying Tianfu was just about to retreat, and he remembered another thing.

"But it's okay to talk about it. Lian Daning has lost interest in him, but it is not good to drive him away.

"Besides, how did he feel that someone was watching you? He was inside the house, and he felt that the person was outside in the field, a few hundred meters away. The prefect of Ying Tianfu has always wondered about this, and if it weren't for Lian Daning's student, he would have sent him to the lobby for questioning.

"I don't know about that. Lian Daning thought about it.

"Now the only evidence of man-made is the mask, and the mask was found in the field. But his behavior in finding the mask was too bizarre. ”

"You doubt him?" Lian Daning said angrily.

"No, my lord, of course I don't doubt it, I just think it'......"

"Lord Tan, don't think that there is any suspicion just because the Zheng family's affairs have something to do with the situation, at that time, Wei Guogong was under house arrest in Suzhou, and every move was monitored, and there were as many witnesses as you wanted. Lian Daning said with a gloomy face.

"No, my lord, the lower official just said that besides, the process of finding that mask was too bizarre and didn't mean anything else. Ying Tianfu prefect hurriedly argued.

"I was amazed at this, but I did not doubt him, but on the contrary I trusted him completely, and if he had any problems, I was willing to sit with him. Lian Daning said in a deep voice.

"My lord's words are serious, my words are serious. The lower official can swear that he never has such intentions. The prefect of Ying Tianfu was embarrassed, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, his idea was right, but he shouldn't have said it so directly, especially the stalk of the Zheng family's case in front of him was still there.

"Lord Tan, please go back first, just tell me if there is any progress. In addition, please also urge the magistrate of Liuhe County to continue to look for all suspicious clues, be sure to go all out to investigate, and not give up halfway. Lian Daning gave an eviction order.

Ying Tianfu prefect had no choice but to retreat, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead after walking out of the yamen of the inspection envoy.

"My lord, what's the matter?" asked the two catchers who had followed him.

"It's nothing, you mobilize all the forces you can muster and bring this case to the official to find out, even if the evil ghost asks for his life, you must also arrest the evil ghost. Ying Tianfu prefect said viciously and got into the sedan chair directly.

The two catchers looked at each other, how can this evil ghost be arrested? This is too difficult, is it too difficult, can it still be written in the Yama Palace, can you ask the king of Hades for help?

After Wenbin attended the Luming banquet, he went back to Suzhou to worship his ancestors and build a memorial arch, and the Zhou family basically returned to Suzhou.

Besides, he didn't follow, he has been replaying the hell map in his mind for the past few days, but he has not gone any further into the case. He was waiting for news from Xiaojun, and he was also waiting for Zhou Dingcheng to come back from Suzhou, so that he could issue an order to use the power of the Qinwang faction to arrest the murderer.

In this case, perhaps only he and Lian Daning insisted that it was man-made, not some evil ghost asking for their lives, and it had nothing to do with the hanged ghost.

For a few days, he had been sitting quietly in his own study in the Marquis's Mansion, and the people who had arranged to monitor the movements around Li Xiangjun's house had been dispatched, and he was relieved.

Guozijian there, he didn't go again, he waited for Wenbin to come back, and then went to Guozijian to officially report together.

"What are you doing, hiding here alone. "Shawnier found him.

"Nothing, think about things for yourself. Besides, he said indifferently.

"Nothing? You've never been like this. ”

Besides, he also knew that he was not in good shape, and he couldn't help it, that scene had too much impact on him, and he couldn't pretend to be nothing.

"You don't think Pomegranate is like this, I haven't seen you in a few days. Xiao Nier laughed at him.

"No, I'm in a difficult situation that needs to be thought about. ”

Xiao Nier heard that it was a brain-using thing, so she stopped asking, this kind of thing is only done by himself, and others can't help.

"Then you can go out for a stroll when you have time, and it's not a way to hold back at home all the time. Xiao Nier said.

Besides, he was just replaying in his mind the feeling he felt when he felt those demonic eyes staring at him that day, and he wanted to strengthen this feeling, find out the image of the owner of these poisonous eyes, and have a face to find the direction of search. It's a pity that all he can feel is those poisonous eyes and monstrous anger, as well as an irrepressible murderous intent that is so strong that it is irrepressible.

He also kills and doesn't stop.

Besides, I suddenly felt this way in my heart.

He suddenly stood up and walked out, Xiao Ni thought he had accepted his advice and really wanted to go out for a walk.

Besides, he suddenly thought of the Great Xiangguo Temple, although he didn't know the contact information of the Qinwang faction, but he knew that the Great Xiangguo Temple was an important stronghold of the Qinwang faction, and the status was still above the Hanshan Temple in Suzhou. He got in the car and went out, no one told him where to go, and the coachman traveled for a while and didn't know where to go, and then he said: Go to Daxiangguo Temple.
