Yi Shanwan and Zuo Kui shuttled through the night, like two black electric lights.

Along the way, Yi Shandu didn't say a word, and Zuo Kui didn't ask.

They walked for hours until sunrise in the east, when they came to a quaint street.

It looks quite similar to Demon Street.

Although it was still early, the mortals who did business on this street had already moved from the streets to the alleys.

The stalls are connected to each other, and there is no gap.

They quickly jumped onto the roof of a cornice, and they both sat down.

As the sun rose, Zuo Kui began to feel a little out of breath.

Yi Shan looked at it all, shook his cuffs, and dropped out a big black umbrella.

This umbrella is quite large, and even the combined circumference exceeds the width of Yi Shan's cuffs.

Let Zuo Kui not know how it fell out.

"The soul-covering umbrella can not only collect the soul, but also protect the soul." Yi Shan said: "You don't have any practice, you can't be exposed to the sun for a long time, use this to protect yourself." ”

Zuo Kui raised the umbrella and immediately felt much better.

"You don't ask me what I'm bringing you for?" Yi Shan looked at him and said with a smile.

Zuo Kui said lightly: "If you want to say it, you will naturally say it." ”

Yi Shan smiled and said, "Yes, you can already watch the store alone." ”

Zuo Kui listened and frowned.

"Before you came to the store, I was looking into a case." Yi Shanqian continued: "Do you know what the local officials in the underworld are called? ”

"City God." Zuo Kui said.

Yi Shanqian nodded and said, "Then do you remember why I accepted you to the store?" ”

"You investigated the case and met the former shopkeeper, and mistakenly hit my soul."

"Earlier, I investigated the case, and I used the channel of the Six Directions Yang Sect, but I found nothing."

"So you started using the channels of the underworld, didn't you?" Zuo Kui said.

Yi Shanwan nodded again and said: "There are areas in the world to guard, and there are local city gods in the underworld. I visited the local Chenghuang government office and submitted an application for their assistance in the investigation. ”

Yi Shanquan said, suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "The result is nothing, do you know what it means?" ”

"The opponent is stronger than the local official forces of Hades, isn't it?"

Yi Shanqian sneered and said, "Wrong! ”

Zuo Kui was stunned.

"You'll never know what kind of place Hades is, and there's no way there's anything more powerful than them."

Yishan is cut to the end of the railway.

"At first, I even felt the same way as you. I thought that there was something more terrible than the Chenghuang Mansion, and it was an earth-shattering thing that should not be taken lightly. So I submitted the mission report to the Chenghuang Mansion, hoping that they would convey it to the higher authorities and pay attention to this matter. ”

Zuo Kui pondered carefully this time and said, "You didn't get any support, did you?" ”

Yi Shan said: "The report has been handed in for three or four years, and there has been no news. At first, I wasn't particularly surprised, because Hades is too big for you mortals to imagine. Necromancy has an endless lifespan, and time we have is. It is not uncommon for a transaction to be handled for two or three years. The necromancy there acts according to the principles of heaven, and most of the time it is absolutely impartial, and there are very few problems. Just like your thing, no one has come to inquire after so long, and I have time to deal with it. ”

Zuo Kui listened and was silent.

"But four or five years have passed, and there has been no news from the Chenghuang Yamen. I started to feel a little strange that the people they sent out didn't get a response. ”

Zuo Kui thought for a long time, and suddenly an incredible idea popped up.

"Do you think there's something wrong with the Chenghuang Yamen?"

Yi Shandu was silent for a long time before nodding heavily.

"Yin is not like mortals, we know the retribution of reincarnation, so no one acts for personal gain. It is really unimaginable that the Chenghuang Yamen would engage in favoritism and malpractice. ”

He took a breath and continued, "However, the Chenghuang Yamen should be well aware of all the good and evil deeds of human beings. In a few years, so many mortal souls have died, and the Yin Errand have found nothing, which is really contrary to common sense. ”

Zuo Kui said: "This year, you actually checked the City God's Yamen again?" ”

"The last time I fought with my previous boss, I was run away by him. I thought about it again and again, and felt that as a ghost, once I had a private act, I would definitely not be able to escape the curse of God. But he has been able to live unharmed for so many years, there must be some big force protecting him. What's more, he detains the soul of the dead, no matter what he wants to do with it, but if it is not properly shelved, it will not be able to cover up such a heavy yin qi for too long. What is he going to do about it? ”

Yi Shan turned his head to look at Zuo Kui, his eyes flashing: "So I think there must be something wrong with the Chenghuang Yamen." ”

"This year, you have always disappeared from time to time, and the time seems to be getting longer and longer, how are you investigating the case?"

Yi Shan laughed slyly: "It's okay to tell you, this is my unique secret - I will go to the ghost body." ”

Zuo Kui listened and said, "I've only heard of the ghost master's body. ”

"That's why it's my unique secret. It's called a ghost of ghosts, and it's one of my housekeeping skills. ”

"You went to the ghost body in the Chenghuang Yamen and went undercover there, didn't you?"

"Yo drink!" Yi Shan raised his eyebrows, and seemed to admire Zuo Kui: "Clever!" ”

Yi Shan said: "I have been on the ghost service, ghost hunting, day and night wandering gods, and deacons of various divisions. In addition to the civil and military judges who are close to Chenghuang, I have all been on the body. During this time, I noticed a strange thing. ”

"What?"

"I've never seen a city god."

Zuo Kui fell silent.

"The divisions are running normally, but I've never seen a city god. Moreover, I found that as long as it involved the case of the dead soul, the people in the various departments of the yamen were secretive, and they did not even send anyone to investigate this matter at all. ”

"There is a problem with Lord Chenghuang." Zuo Kui said.

Yi Shan pouted and said, "I'm not completely sure, but there are seven or eight percent." ”

"That's why we're here today?"

Yi Shan nodded and said, "Today is the day of the City God's patrol, do you understand the rules of the City God's patrol?" ”

"People will carry the statue of the god of the city god through the streets and celebrate with the market."

"You haven't read the information you've been given?"

"In fact, it is the result of Yin Errand and mortal psychic operations, and the city god will come out on this day to receive incense."

Yi Shan nodded and said, "No matter what problems Chenghuang has, he will come out ninety percent today." No matter what it is, incense is of great significance to spiritual practice, which is why the gods and Buddhas use incense. ”

Zuo Kui thought for a while, and suddenly blurted out: "You want to make a big fuss about the City God Festival?" ”

Yi Shan nodded.

"The City God is the head of a district, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary ghost paths. If something really goes wrong with him, then the opponent is probably a very tricky guy. ”

"Isn't it rash that we're like this?"

Yi Shandu was silent for a while, and finally said, "I'll tell you the truth." If something goes wrong with the Chenghuang Mansion, I don't do it, and there's no other way. That is the only channel for Liufangzhai to reach the upper echelons of Hades, and if you don't start from here, things will be out of control sooner or later. ”

Yi Shan paused, and suddenly sighed: "I'm a ghost, and my ability is just right to deal with this matter." ”

He turned his head and looked at Zuo Kui, his eyes seemed to be a little gloomy.

"This is both providence and my fate." He said.

There was a hint of sadness in the words that had never been felt before.
