The case of Chang'anqi
"How can I be so unlucky! Died for no reason! Now I can't be reincarnated by this little aunt and grandmother, my life is miserable! The ghost cried incessantly, resounding throughout the netherworld.
Chang'an City is still as lively as ever, with people coming and playing on the streets, shouting and bargaining everywhere.
"Swordsman, is it really okay to put Xin'er in Uncle Zhong Kui?"
"Are you still worried that Zhong Kui's seniors won't be able to take care of Xin'er?"
"No, I'm just worried that Uncle Zhong Kui will be tortured by Xin'er to the point of being inhuman."
"Well, I think I have to worry about that."
"Master, what are you talking about?" Yanagisawa saw that his master and sister were chattering about something.
"You kid don't have to worry about it, have you arrived?"
On this day, the swordsman received a task, someone died mysteriously in Chang'an City, and the government couldn't find any clues, so someone asked Cheng Yanjin for help, and Cheng Yanjin sent the swordsman to check it out. The swordsman also agreed, and the bone elf and Yanagisawa followed. The swordsman wanted Liu Ze to experience the experience, so he brought her with him, and the bone elf was just trying to join in the fun, but the swordsman couldn't help her, so he had to agree, so he brought Yingxin to Zhong Kui to take care of it.
"Oh, it's here, right here." Yanagisawa glanced at the map he was holding and pointed to the door beside him. It was a majestic mansion with the word "Huo Fu" on the plaque and a guard handle at the door.
"Oh, alright, let's go inside."
With that, the swordsman said a few words to the two guards, and the guards let them go, and the three of them walked through the gate.
But as soon as they walked in, the three of them heard a terrifying cry coming from the house in the front yard, sounding very sad.
"Yikes! Who is crying so loudly! Yanagisawa frowned and couldn't help but cover his ears, this cry was too harsh.
"Let's go see what's going on."
The three of them pushed the door open and entered, and saw a bed in the room, and on that bed lay a man, who was covered by a white cloth. There was also a beautiful woman lying on the side of the bed, holding a handkerchief in her hand, and she made a deafening cry. And there was a middle-aged man with a sad face standing on the side, and after the three of them pushed the door open, he also noticed it.
"Dare to ask how many people are sent by Master Cheng?"
"Yes. May I ask this Master Huo, what happened in your family? The swordsman replied with a fist.
"This, hey! O wretched son! A few days ago, for some reason, he suddenly died in his room, and the expression on his face was very frightened, as if he had seen something terrible before he died. We invited the government to investigate the case, but we couldn't find out why, but we ······"
"On the contrary to what?" The three were curious.
"This, this thing is quite evil. The people who helped guard our family's government in the past two days have all gone crazy! ”
"What?"
"The crazy people all looked terrified, and they kept shouting what the hell they were! There was even a strong man who hanged himself yesterday, and before he died, he kept shouting that I didn't do it, don't look for me! ”
"How could such a thing happen?" The two of them glanced at each other, if they were ordinary people, they would probably be scared to the point that their legs would be weak, but unfortunately, they could not be scared to this extent.
"Maybe this is some lonely ghost who doesn't want to be reincarnated after death." The bone elf guessed that she hadn't encountered such a thing before.
"I remember that King Jizo said that only ghosts who died horizontally and still have strong obsessions after death would do such things, right?"
"Yes! And although this kind of wild ghost is very murderous, it will not kill people for no reason. Unless······"
"In that case, the family must have done something unsightly in the past to cause things to develop like this."
"Both, have you thought of anything?" The middle-aged man asked.
"Sir, may you show us your son's body?"
"Uh, yes."
The middle-aged man patted the beautiful woman on the shoulder, the beautiful woman raised her head, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and the middle-aged man helped her aside. And the two of them walked to the bed, and the swordsman lifted the white cloth to take a look, which at first glance really startled Yanagisawa who was standing aside.
The corpse of a young man with a hideous wound on his neck, the blood on the wound had congealed and turned a strange dark red. The corpse's face was pale and blue, its eyes were wide open, and its mouth was wide enough to fit an egg, and it was a face of complete fear.
"Look at this dead appearance, it's really some kind of ghost doing tricks!" After a careful examination, the swordsman covered the white cloth again.
"Do you have any idea how to catch this troublemaker?"
"You go back to the underworld, go to the seniors to check if there are any other people who have died in their family recently, come back and tell me, and then make plans!"
"Hmmm! Okay, I'll rush back as soon as possible! With that, the bone elf used his mana and disappeared in place.
