As soon as I heard that the mission was coming, I didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly got dressed and looked for Zhang Qian and them. When I first met, this girl gave me a stack of documents, saying that this is all the information for this mission, and let me look at it myself and then make plans.

I didn't say a word but looked at it silently, it didn't matter! I was dumbfounded when I saw it. Because this case happened in the area under our jurisdiction, and several people have died, which has made many people worried.

When I finished reading the information, two words suddenly popped up in my heart: "Evil Gate!" That's right, it's "Evil Gate." The cause of the incident should be more than 10 days ago, to be precise, it should be the 21st day of the 11th month of the lunar calendar. On the same day, an old man surnamed Zhao passed away, and the old man had no signs before he died. It was a sudden illness, and by the time he was admitted to the hospital, he was already dead.

According to the information, the old man has two sons in total, but because he is usually busy with work, he does not live with the old man, but the granddaughter of the eldest son's family takes care of his grandmother. The old lady also loves her granddaughter very much, and she basically brought it up single-handedly. This shows how deep the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren is!

Originally, birth, old age, sickness and death are common, and since people die, there is nothing they can do, but life still has to go on as usual. So after a lot of things are done, life is back to the way it was before. I thought it would pass quickly, but I didn't expect that on the seventh day after the incident, that is, the night of the old lady's first seventh, the tragedy happened.

At about eleven o'clock that night, the eldest son of the old lady received a call from his daughter. The daughter on the other end of the phone said in a panic that she was scared at her grandmother's house, and always felt that there was a figure beside her bed, floating around and staring at her, hoping that they would come and pick her up quickly.

After listening to his daughter's words, Zhao's father and Zhao's mother couldn't sit still at that time, and pondered again that today happened to be the seventh day of the old lady's first year. "The First Seven" is actually a name in our country, in ancient times, people believed that after death, the soul of the deceased would return home on the seventh day. On this day, the family needs to prepare a table of meals for the deceased to enjoy and avoid before the soul of the deceased returns, and it is best to hide outside, and remember not to let the deceased see the family. Otherwise, it will give the Yin person a false impression that his family will remember him and affect his reincarnation. Because it is the day when the ghost of the deceased returns home, this day is also called the night of resurrection.

At this time, the eldest son was dumbfounded, and he missed this stubble by all means, and hurried to pick up his daughter when he reacted. Two hours later...... Waiting for them was only the corpse of her daughter, lying motionless on the cold ground. couldn't accept the blow, and the two fainted on the spot, and later the neighbors helped call the police.

The police quickly cordoned off the scene to investigate, and the autopsy found that the girl had black handprints all over her body and obvious pinch marks on her neck. Through a series of autopsies, it was finally concluded that the person was strangled to death in his home. The police quickly set up a special task force, but because it was a supernatural case, the case could not be closed for several days.

It was only four or five days later! Then the Zhao family had another accident. This time it was the old lady's second son who had an accident, and when he was driving and waiting for the red light, he was stoned to death by a cement tanker truck that was out of control in the opposite lane, and the whole person became a puddle of rotten meat! Not to mention how terrifying that picture is, it is simply unbelievable to say!

However, the matter is not over yet, the second child of the Zhao family has only been in the accident for half a month, and his daughters have also been killed one after another, and the death method is the same as that of her cousin. Now everyone can't sit still, the big guy is simply, find a Mr. Yin and Yang to take a look, what's going on with the Zhao family.

Not to mention that they have really put a lot of effort into this matter. After several inquiries and dragged friends, I found the Paranormal Bureau and posted the task to me. The case that I didn't say happened in our Lu family's territory, so it was naturally handled by me. Therefore, the intelligence personnel of the organization quickly sorted out the information and sent it over.

However, this mission is different from the past, and I am completely in charge of handling the case. It's impossible to say I'm sure, but I'm going to have to give it a try. Although I don't know how to start, the organization's intelligence has given me some hints, and the intelligence officers think that these three cases seem to have some connection with the old man who passed away.

After reading the mission materials, I fell into deep thought, and three people had died...... And most importantly, from the deaths of several people, I have not deduced anything from the fact that this is a dirty thing. If you can't find the problem just by guessing, then the best way is to go to Zhao's house and check it out in person. I gritted my teeth and told Qiu Dajun to drive, and then set off according to the address left on the document.

When I arrived at the agreed place, it was already ten o'clock in the afternoon, and I looked at the sparse pedestrians on the street outside the car window. My mind drifted through a trance, and the trajectory of my life had changed forever since the day I inadvertently provoked something dirty in October. Looking back on this month, the life-and-death dangers and tribulations experienced are like a dream.

In any case, the peaceful life that used to be is getting farther and farther away for me. After all that I've been through, life is no longer for me. When you embark on a completely different path from ordinary people, you will find out what you really want.

My thoughts were very chaotic at this moment, and it took a long time for me to calm down. Pushing Qiu Dajun beside him, he said, "Brother Qiu, contact the person in charge of this case in the Zhao family!"

"Uh-huh!"

Qiu Dajun nodded and took out his mobile phone, found the contact's phone and dialed a few words, and then said to me, "Hmm...... It's been said that the other party will come out to pick us up in a while. ”

I didn't say anything but closed my eyes and continued to sort out my thoughts, to be honest, this mission was not an entry point for me at all! Except for the death of three people, there was no useful clue. I really can't figure out what terrible dirty thing the Zhao family has provoked. And looking at the current situation, this thing is not over until all the Zhao family members are killed one by one.

No one knows who will be killed next, so we can only investigate slowly. You can't gather all the Zhao family together to protect them! Although this can ensure their safety, you can wait to see if they are willing to do so. Therefore, my current situation is also very embarrassing, and the whole case is like a big pie that has just come out of the pot, and it is hot to take it.

It didn't take long for the person in charge of the Zhao family to come, and after the introduction, I learned that I was originally in charge, and this case was Zhao Bin, the eldest son of the Zhao family. Zhao Bin looks like he is in his forties, and he looks quite literate with a pair of gold-wire glasses. The speech was also very polite, and asked, "That, may I ask who of you is Daoist Lu?"

Taoist ......

As soon as I heard that this was about me, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, and I had to say that this was the first time someone called myself like this, and I straightened my back and said, "I am!"

"You?"

When I heard that it was me, the other party was obviously stunned, and then stared at me for a long time, his brows twisted together, and he said in disbelief: "You are Daochang Lu......?"

As soon as I saw Zhao Bin's expression, I was upset. Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, I directly interrupted: "What? Do you think I'm a little young and can't handle your family's affairs?" ”

I didn't care, "Well, if that's the case, you'd better be smarter." ”

After speaking, I was about to get in the car and leave, but as soon as I saw that I was leaving, the other party was anxious, and hurriedly apologized with a smile and said that he was wrong just now. Then he dragged us to his house.

In fact, the reason why I said this just now was not to deliberately scare Zhao Bin. After all, when we go on a mission, we still need the cooperation of this family, or we don't make enough gestures, I'm afraid they won't be obedient. So I made it clear as soon as I came up, I didn't believe that Lao Tzu would simply go to someone else, and since I was looking for me, don't have a suspicious mentality.

Maybe it's all these things lately, and they're all scared, so they don't dare to underestimate us. Sitting down face-to-face, we learned about the whole thing, and still didn't get any valuable clues. So I asked to see the body of the victim.

Not to mention that the boss of the Zhao family was very cooperative in this regard, and without saying a word, he took us to the mortuary. The girl who was killed just before yesterday was Zhao Xiaoya, and it seemed that she was seventeen or eighteen years old at most. I didn't say that I was definitely a beauty before I was alive, but unfortunately I didn't find anything wrong from the corpse after checking it for a long time.

So what do we do next? We're completely blinded and out of ideas. Just as I was pondering and looking for the entry point, Zhao Bin suddenly asked, "What's wrong?"

I said, "As I guessed, it's really the dirty stuff that kills people." It's just that it's a little hard to figure out what kind of dirty stuff is messing around! There's only one way to do it right now. ”

Qiu Dajun came up and asked me in a low voice, "Hmm...... What's the solution?"

"Ask, victim, personally. ”

I explained, "Actually, after the situation has developed to this point, there is only one best way. To be precise, Zhao Xiaoya belongs to the people who have just died, and tonight is the day when her ghost is formed. So as long as you guard her corpse and see her in person, it will be easy to ask about things when the time comes. ”

Of course, this kind of midnight ghost business is not the end of my mouth. If nothing else, who dares to guarantee that Zhao Xiaoya's ghost will obediently wait for us to ask? Anyway, this girl belongs to the person who died horizontally, or the kind that was killed by dirty things. Nine times out of ten, it belongs to the kind that explodes, so the next preparations still have to be done.

After hesitating for a long time, I made a list and handed it to Zhang Qian for her to prepare. Actually, I asked for no more than two things, a big rooster at least three years old, and seventeen ancient coins, and told her to find them before dark. The reason why I was looking for these two things was for only one purpose, that is, to set up a Taoist magic circle to trap Zhao Xiaoya's ghost. I can only be relieved if I am fully prepared.

Actually, I had already planned it, and tonight I used the soul sealing array in the Maoshan Technique. The Soul Sealing Array was the first generation of Maoshan Sect Leader, a formation created by Qiu Tongsheng Zhenren. It is based on seventeen ancient copper coins with Tong Mei and Tong Zimei. Forge a small seven levels on the ground, so that it is difficult for the unjust soul to escape from this formation. Of course, what I have laid out this time is just a simplified version, and perhaps the word "copycat" is more appropriate.

When everything is arranged, see that the time is already around three o'clock in the afternoon. Seeing that it was almost time to eat, I ate something casually with Qiu Dajun at a nearby restaurant, and then went back to the car to rest. After all, if we want to see Yin people at night, we must be mentally full. Otherwise, when the yang energy is insufficient, it will be easy to be ghosted, and it will be lively at that time.

Lying in the passenger seat of the commercial vehicle, my thoughts were racing. Slowly, I actually remembered the experience of the last month. The ghost lady who was provoked at first started, and then met Peng Hui in order to survive. After experiencing many hardships in the Qinling Mountains, I realized that I had embarked on a completely different path from ordinary people.

After experiencing so many things, my mentality seems to have matured a lot, at least I am no longer the hairy boy who has just entered society. Although I am only 20 years old, what really makes people grow up is always experienced and experienced. A soldier who has never been on the battlefield will not be able to understand how terrible a real war is.

For example, those in the current society, who think they are black old earth ruffians and hooligans, may have avoided them when I encountered them in the past. Now they are like garbage in my eyes, maybe this is a change in my mentality.

I also thought of my grandfather, and I don't know where he is now. I also tried to call him, but my grandfather's phone kept being turned off. Fortunately, I would receive a text message from my grandfather every few minutes, so I felt a lot more at ease.

I was in this state until more than nine o'clock in the evening before I was called up by Zhang Qian. Say that what I want is ready, when will it pass. I saw that the time was almost up, so I called Qiu Dajun and Zhang Qian, and went directly to the place where the Zhao family was mortuary.

Zhao Xiaoya's body was actually placed in the hall of the Zhao family's villa. Because it is believed that the soul still exists after death, the mortuary period is to allow the soul of the deceased to stay at home for a few more days, so that it can leave with peace of mind. In any case, these rules have been handed down by our ancestors, and they must have made sense if they have been passed down for so long.

I came to the corpse and then picked up 17 ancient coins soaked in the blood of the cockscomb and placed them according to them, because the copper coins in ancient times passed through the hands of 10,000 people, and the yang energy was very heavy, and the boy's eyebrows could have the effect of suppressing the flow of yin energy. Then the rest is simple, just wait until twelve o'clock at midnight Zhao Xiaoya's ghost is formed.

In fact, the arrangement method of this soul sealing array is not difficult, but the difficulty is the accurate judgment of the direction of the five elements. Of course, I also learned this Taoist formation from Peng Hui, and in the hand-copied notebook he gave me at the beginning, there was a detailed explanation of this formation, including the layout method.

When everything was ready, I said to the Zhao family, "Okay...... Tonight, we will just keep watch in the mourning hall, and everyone else will avoid it. Remember, don't care about any movement coming from the mourning hall, you all don't come here. Otherwise, you do so at your own risk. ”
