Che Gong Gong, Ma Xiao Xiao, loess flying, out of Yiyang, across the Yellow River, along an ancient official road across the Central Plains, Han Fei, Honglian and Wei Zhuang, Zinu and Zhang Liang and a group of five people slowly to the west.

Time flies, and before I know it, three days have passed. On this day, they finally stepped into the realm of Binh Duong.

In the evening, they rode into a fierce place

The forest, on all sides only see the ancient trees towering to the sky, the thick shade turns, do not distinguish the light of the sky and the shadow of the sun, the situation is very hideous and sinister.

Han Fei looked at the gradually darkening night and the endless woods, strangled the horses, stopped and looked at the people behind him and said, "There are no people in the vicinity for ten miles, and we can't catch up with the town with our horsepower, it seems that we are going to spend the night here tonight." ”

Everyone had no other opinion on this, so they dismounted and found a good place to rest, set up a bonfire for lighting, took out dry food, and chatted while eating.

"Ofan, I have carefully read the files of the murder case of the three observers and the county guard, and I roughly understand the essence of this case, the strange thing is that no matter how they are tested, their sudden death is suicide, isn't it a strange thing?"

Zhang Liang nodded and said, "The three observer envoys only stayed in Pingyang for one day before they were killed. In such a big case of killing an official of the imperial court, the murderer is really bold. ”

Han Fei said again; "However, their rampant actions seem to be hiding something, it seems that if we want to solve the ghost soldier robbery case, we have to start with these bizarre murder cases and start from scratch."

Zhang Lianggang wanted to continue to say something, but suddenly heard a loud shout:

"I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to live from here, leave it to buy road wealth."

A loud and rough voice suddenly sounded behind him, and a giant man with a tall waist, a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, and tangled muscles appeared behind everyone.

He had a strange face and looked hideous. Carrying a long iron rope on his back, he wore bracers inlaid with blades on his wrists and ankles, which shimmered in the sun.

With a heavy stomp on the ground, boom, the whole person flew up like a cannonball and landed in front of the gathered people.

For a moment, there was silence in the woods.

Red Lotus was furious, pulled out the red soft sword at her waist, and said sharply: "Where did the path-cutting thieves come from, dare to rob us and extort money." ”

The strong man opened his mouth and spit out the words of the urn: "Don't be frightened by the passing officials, I am a little short of money these days, you give me a few taels of silver to eat, and I will leave by myself." Oh, and I've got all your food. ”

Han fei

Wei Zhuang looked at Han Fei and teased: "Childe, it seems that your fame has not spread very widely, and you didn't take a good look at the yellow calendar when you went out today, and there were robbers who robbed your head." ”

The strong man stepped forward and said: "I see that you are dressed in brocade and silk, and you are not an official or a businessman, so I ask you for a few taels of silver for food, and you will not care about this money anyway." ”

After hearing the strong man's words, Honglian immediately spoke up: "Where did you come out of the rat bandit, and you dare to speak wildly to entertain us." If you win me, I will give you not only food money, but also wine money. ”

When the strong man heard this, his face suddenly sank, and he whispered: "I won't fight with you, let's change to someone else!" ”

Red Lotus wondered, "Why?" ”

The strong man said: "My master told me not to fight with women. ”

Honglian didn't answer, she had already made a move, and I saw that she was light, her chain sword danced, and she was very good-looking, stabbing straight at the strong man.

The strong man raised his hand and grasped the soft sword struck by the red lotus. With a pull, the red lotus was pulled up in the air and flew towards the strong man.

Honglian was shocked, this strong man was simply a monster, and he had at least a thousand catties of huge power in his hands. With a flick of his wrist, the chain sword spread out, revealing a jagged blade, shaking open the strong man's palm, and hitting the strong man's thick body like a spirit snake spitting out a letter.

With a muffled sound of "bang", Red Lotus's chain sword was not enough for a strong man, his body was as hard as armor, and the blade of the sword slashed, leaving only a white mark, without a trace of blood.

The strong man roared angrily: "You have succeeded in provoking me!" After speaking, he rushed up violently, and the iron fist danced vigorously, not afraid of the attack of the Red Lotus Chain Sword at all.

Red Lotus rarely has the opportunity to fight with people in real dismantling moves, let alone encountering such an opponent who blindly attacks and does not need to defend.

She flashed left and right, and used her whole body to fight with the strong man, but unfortunately it was useless. She was a woman herself, and she was pampered, and after only a few moments she was out of breath and drenched in sweat.

The strong man's moves are getting faster and faster, his fists are aggressive, and Red Lotus has almost no power to parry. He punched out and hit the sword body of the red lotus, stalemate for a moment, and with a burst of internal strength, he knocked Tianming out with a snap.

"Ahh Red Lotus snorted and slammed into a warm embrace. She turned her head and saw that it was Wei Zhuang who took her down.

Wei Zhuang held the red lotus in his left hand, and caught the chain snake soft sword that was knocked down with his right hand, and the sword light flashed and hit the strong man's chest.

The strong man stopped his hurried footsteps, and at the same time put down his huge fist raised high, and looked at Wei Zhuang fixedly. Originally, he wanted to smash the young man in front of him with a punch, but just as he was about to make a move, his beast-like intuition made him feel a huge crisis in his chest, as if the claws of an ancient beast that could devour heaven and earth were on his chest. He had no choice but to stop.

The strong man looked at Wei Zhuang and said, "I won." The same sword had different powers in the hands of different people, and he had no doubt that the young man in front of him would be able to kill him. He wasn't comparable to the effeminate woman he had just had.

Wei Zhuang smiled faintly: "That's right, you won." She promised you that we would keep it. However, I am very optimistic about you, and I want you to join our organization, Quicksand. ”

The strong man frowned, and asked in a cold voice, "Why should I promise you?" ”

"Because of this." The chain snake soft sword in Wei Zhuang's hand pierced the strong man's steely skin, and blood flowed out.

The strong man was stunned, felt the pain in his chest, and opened his mouth to reply: "Okay, I promise you." He knew that if he didn't say yes, he would probably die.

Wei Zhuang put down his sword and smiled faintly: "You have made a right decision, we will cover your future food money, follow us, you will live the life you want." ”

……

The moon rabbit fell, Jin Wusheng rose, and the next afternoon Weizhuang and his party finally stepped into Pingyang City and found an ordinary inn to live in.

Han Fei, Zhang Liang and others hurriedly had dinner, and after bathing, they sat in the room to drink and chat.

Naturally, there is a strong man who was robbed yesterday in the room, and Han Fei also loves this big man, who is extremely powerful and has excellent martial arts; The words are upright, the atmosphere is bold, honest and obedient. learned that he had no name and no surname, and specially gave him the name "Wushuang Ghost." ”

That night, they went to the Pingyang County Ya to investigate the cause of death of the county guard and the three observers.

came to the county office, and only a moment after the report, an old official with browled eyebrows rushed out of the yahall, and rushed to Han Fei to bow his head.

He snorted: "Xiaguan Zeng Ming, I have seen Gongzi, Gongzi has arrived, Xiaguan is negligent in greeting, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”

Han Fei helped Zeng Ming up and said with a smile: "Master Zeng has always been reluctant to perform official duties, prudent in his own duties, and there is no fault. I'm just here to investigate the ghost soldier robbery case and several bizarre suicide cases of officials in succession, and I hope you will report it truthfully. ”

Zeng replied respectfully: "Xiaguan is now the chief secretary of the county government. After the unfortunate murder of the previous county guard, the yamen should be temporarily taken care of by the lower officials in daily affairs, and now everything is at the disposal of the son. ”

After finishing speaking, he led Han Fei and the others into the inner study to sit down. It also gives a detailed account of the cases that occurred during this period.

Han Fei nodded with satisfaction, and asked with the situation: "Where did several observers from the royal capital rest when they came here to investigate the case?" ”

Master Tsang replied, "When the adults came here, they lived in the mansion of the county keeper that night, and the next day they committed suicide mysteriously. ”

Han Fei couldn't help but wonder: "Can Master Zeng know the reason?" ”

Zeng Ming glanced around, and whispered: "The mansion of the county guard is not very peaceful at night, and there is a sneaky disorder. ”

Han Fei was shocked and asked, "How do you say this?" Where are there so many gods and ghosts in this world? ”

Master Zeng replied: "Where do the lower officials dare to hide from the son, right."

It's the ghost of the county keeper who wanders around his mansion from time to time. That night, the three observers were caught by the ghost of the county keeper, and committed suicide after being struck by the evil spirit. There should be no false in this matter, and Xia Guan has also seen it twice. The ghost looks the same as the county keeper when he was alive, but he doesn't speak, and he comes and goes in a trance

Dodging people. It seems that there are endless grievances that have not been resolved, so the depression is not dispersed, and it is not like the county guard who was still in harmony before his death. Now that I think about it, it's terrifying. So I persuaded Gongzi to be wary, go outside to find an inn to stay for a few days, and wait for the Taoist to cast spells, recite his "Lingbao Duren Sutra" dozens of times, and then come in not too late. ”

Han Fei was silent, brushing his short jet-black beard under his chin.

After waving his hand to let Master Zeng step back, he turned his head to look at the people beside him and said: "Master Zeng talked in detail about the murder of the county guard and the three observer envoys, and the first thing I did when I arrived in Pingyang this time was to investigate the case, arrest the real culprit, and find the missing million military salaries by the way. ”

Han Fei took a sip of wine slowly, and then spoke: "It seems that this time we also have to learn the Ghost Hunting Heavenly Master, and get rid of the extra lonely souls and wild ghosts near Pingyang, and dispel the evil and help the right." After listening to Zeng's narration, what do you think now? ”

Wei Zhuang played with the wine glass in his hand and smiled evilly: "I won't believe that there are any ghosts, even if there are, it's just that someone is pretending to be a ghost and wants to give us a dismount and scare us away." All I know is that there is only one truth, waiting for us to dig up and uncover its mystery. ”

Zhang Liang, who was standing on the side, also nodded, and he also supported Wei Zhuang's statement in his heart. Zi is silent, he always believes this.

Whether it is a ghost or someone secretly manipulating it, the true face of everything is waiting for Wei Zhuang, Han Fei and others to explore.
