When he walked into the slightly old and dim warehouse, he looked up and saw through the dust floating up and down in the room, and Chen Sanyu saw five or six bookcases.

He walked slowly, pulling a random copy from the bookcase.

As soon as I flipped through it, I found that this was an illustrated book about the content of various laws and regulations in Black Earth Town.

"Useless."

Syllable~

Throw it on the ground.

Chen Sanyu raised his hand and took out another book from the bookcase.

Flip a few pages.

However, it was found that all the records were enslavement files.

"Useless."

Syllable~

Throw it on the ground again.

Then, Chen Sanyu flipped through dozens of books in a row, and found that they were all useless books such as county and town maps, household registration files, Confucian writings, Shuowen and Chinese characters, poetry classics, mathematical arithmetic, and so on.

It wasn't until he turned to the innermost bookcase in the warehouse that he found the county chronicle of Heitu Town.

Whoa—

Flip through dozens of pages.

After skimming through a long and meaningless historical record of Black Earth Town, Chen Sanyu finally found what he was looking for.

That is, writings about many ghosts and spirits.

This is only a dozen pages of writing, and it has a proper name - "Examination of Foreign Bodies".

After finding something, Chen Sanyu found a reclining chair, sat on it and leaned on the back of the chair to look leisurely.

Ten big characters were written at the beginning of this exam:

All things have a spirit, and there is only one man.

After that, the book roughly wrote that in addition to human beings, there are four different kinds of ghosts, monsters, demons, and spirits in this great world.

Among the ghosts, all return.

It refers to the foreign body transformed by the ghost of the dead after the death of a person.

It is divided into three categories - human ghosts, animal ghosts, and ghouls.

As for what these three types of ghosts refer to, the book briefly mentions that the torture ghosts who were beheaded or beheaded and died, and the hanged ghosts who hanged themselves with resentment, all belong to the category of human ghosts.

The green lantern ghosts and clothed ghosts that occasionally appear at midnight belong to the category of ghosts.

Ghouls are the flow of zombies who are formed by sucking the yin and gathering evil because of a breath of resentment in their throats when they are dying.

The so-called struggle before life and death must be stopped.

Zombies are disasters caused by external influences after a person's death is not exhausted.

However, [strange] has nothing to do with ghosts, gods and monsters, it refers to all kinds of strange and incomprehensible things, or all kinds of strange and unpredictable phenomena.

Regarding this kind of strange phenomenon, the book writes about the past of Black Earth Town related to this.

Or rather, something that happened in a village around Black Earth Town.

Many years ago, an old woodcutter living in Sunjia Village, a few dozen miles south of the town, went to the mountains alone to cut firewood one day in the summer.

On the way to chop wood, the woodcutter surnamed Sun suddenly encountered a torrential rain.

In order to avoid the rain, he panicked and hid in a nameless cave.

Walking to the depths of the cave, the old woodcutter found that there was actually a meat lotus in the cave.

When he looked closer, he was shocked to see that the flesh lotus was full of gold and silver treasures.

The woodcutter was immediately overjoyed.

Then he took off his upper garment, wrapped it in this garment, and put all the gold and silver treasures in the lotus.

When the rain stopped, he returned home.

When the old wife of the family saw the gold and silver treasures, she urgently inquired about their origins.

The woodcutter said that the gold treasures were all taken from a fleshy lotus at the end of the cave in the mountains.

The old wife had doubts again.

said that because of the heat of summer, he never wore shirts when he went into the mountains to cut firewood in the past, why did he return home with clothes wrapped in clothes this time?

The old woodcutter was also quite puzzled, and replied that yes, he really never wore a shirt on a hot summer day.

In doubt, he looked down at the clothes he was holding, and it turned out to be a bloody human skin.

The woodcutter immediately turned into a bloody man, screamed in pain and fell to the ground, rolled around for two or three breaths, and then froze to the ground, and died in the Yellow Spring.

The bloody human skin also fell to the ground, and all the gold and silver treasures wrapped in it were scattered all over the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.

The old wife of the family was also frightened by this scene to faint, and after waking up, she was demented and confused.

"This past story is not like a ghost story, but a bit like a warning to the world, taking money that should not be taken, and suffering a crime that should not be suffered."

Chen Sanyu rubbed his chin and continued to look.

At the back of "Examination of Foreign Objects", he also hastily recorded all kinds of ghosts and strange phenomena that have happened in Heitu Town and surrounding villages over the past few hundred years.

There is no content of the event, only a simple record.

Chen Sanyu counted these records carefully, and found that the frequency of ghosts and strange things in Heitu Town and the surrounding villages was only a few hundred miles away, reaching an average of three or four a year.

Then the cage is calculated, and after a few hundred years, it is equivalent to breaking a thousand pieces.

And that's just a few hundred miles.

If the scope is expanded by thousands of miles and tens of thousands of miles, how many hundred thousand supernatural events will not occur in a dynasty for hundreds of years?

"Tsk, mortals in this world have a hard time, and they will see hell at every turn."

After a leisurely sigh, Chen Sanyu smiled again, "But this kind of world where demons and monsters exist is also quite interesting." ”

In fact, if you think about it carefully, even if there are more supernatural events, it is nothing.

Because, even if ten people die in an incident, and accumulate over hundreds of years, it will only kill 10 million people.

From Chen Sanyu's point of view, this number is really small.

Then look down.

"The Examination of Foreign Objects" says that in addition to ghosts and monsters, there are also demons and spirits in the world.

There are also two types of demons.

Namely, the enchantress and the youkai.

Regarding the former, according to the book, it refers to those fox fairy clam girls who like to photograph people in a false hue.

Those merchants, travelers, and students who are in the wilderness will occasionally encounter demon girls in remote areas, and will be squeezed out of Yuanyang by the other party using all kinds of tricks and witchcraft, and die miserably out of the yang.

After his death, his body may also be skinned and stripped of by the demon girl, and eaten alive.

The latter refers to all kinds of livestock and beasts that have been enlightened and turned into horizontal bones.

This one is far more ferocious than the likes of demon girls, and they love to eat people the most, and there is basically no good class.

As long as mortals meet them, they will be eaten alive and sucked clean.

However, monsters are also rare, and usually only occasionally appear in the deep mountains and old forests, in places covered by clouds and mist.

The last one, fine.

That is, spirits.

The so-called old things become fine.

Spirits are all made up of all kinds of inanimate artifacts.

According to the book, utensils such as brooms, dustpans, mops, washboards, hoes, sickles, tables, chairs, and benches will attract popularity after being used for a long time.

If anyone continues to use it, it will be safe.

However, once it is discarded and the body remains intact, after it has been left for a hundred years, it will give birth to a spirit and then become a spirit.

And all the daily necessities that become fine, they can be called 'old charm', which belongs to a kind of spirit.

As for other kinds of spirits, the "Examination of Foreign Objects" does not describe them in detail, only mentioning jade beauties, bookworms, and gold and silver boys.

At the same time, its content was written until then, and it also officially ended, and there were no more words.

"Ghosts, monsters, demons, and elves, it's really interesting."

Throwing down the county chronicle casually, Chen Sanyu smiled curiously, "I really want to catch a few to play." ”

As he spoke, he 'saw' through heaven and earth to see that a few miles away, there were actually two or three people in official uniforms, who were hesitating at the edge of his momentum field.

"Hmm, is it the official family, you want to communicate with me?"

As soon as Chen Sanyu raised his eyebrows, he withdrew the vicious momentum that was scattered outside, and the whole person suddenly became kind and kind.

From the big demon who originally looked like a cannibal, to a murderer who beheaded hundreds of people, the change is not small.

At least, like a human being.

A few miles away......

"Huh? The demon fog has dissipated? ”

"My lord, let's stop thinking about it, wouldn't you just go in like this...... Sheep in the mouth of the tiger? We can summon all the masters from all walks of life to get rid of the demons, and we can negotiate with the rich families in the town......"

Two fat and thin men in the clothes of the Great Wei Dynasty kept persuading a resolute middle-aged man in a dark official uniform.

This middle-aged man in official uniform is Zhang Xinhuai, the town guard of Black Earth Town.

He waved his sleeves and sighed: "Don't say more, since this demon can travel without fear of the sun and daytime, and frighten thousands of people in the town with his demonic aura, it must be the kind of demon king who is rare in a thousand years, where can ordinary masters have the ability to surrender."

Therefore, the official will come forward in person and discuss with this demon king in detail, as long as he does not harm the people of this black soil town, everything can be done. ”

"In that case, wouldn't your lord be dead and lifeless?"

Zhang Xinhuai's subordinate next to him persuaded again, "You might as well summon some broken households outside the town, promise a reward, and then let them ...... for you."

"Shut up!"

Zhang Xinhuai frowned and reprimanded, "Could it be that Zhang's life is life, and other people's lives are not life?!" ”

After saying that, he slowly raised his eyebrows, looked at the place where the demon king was entrenched a few miles away, and said with a righteous and awe-inspiring attitude: "Since this official has been accepted by the Great Wei and has taken on the duty of guarding this black soil, he wants to protect the people under his rule. ”

After saying that, Zhang Xinhuai flicked his sleeves, straightened his waist and walked in all directions, stepping in the direction of the archive warehouse.

As for the two subordinates he brought, they were timid and timid, and they didn't dare to step forward even a step.

100 meters away......

Step ~ Step ~ Step ~

Zhang Xinhuai, who walked straight to the warehouse, walked steadily in his footsteps, but his face was so tight that his muscles were rising.

Although the sky-pouring demon fog that people couldn't get close to before, it was now gone.

But he still felt the slightest wisp of ferocious aura, constantly hovering in all directions like thousands of steel knives.

It seems that it will fly at any moment and chop itself into meat sauce.

Despite this, Zhang Xinhuai did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and slowly walked a few miles to the door of the warehouse despite the fear in his heart.

At this moment, standing outside the door of the warehouse like a monster cave, he first took a deep breath and tried his best to calm the panic in his heart.

Then, with a firm step, he walked in.

After only walking five or six steps, Zhang Xinhuai took a look at Chen Sanyu, who was sitting on the recliner with the big horse golden knife.

Surprise!

At the first sight of the latter's face, he almost fell to the ground.

'Oh my God, how can there be ...... in the world How can there be such a terrifying face?! ’

I didn't faint like my heart, and I pinched the thigh meat hard before I woke up immediately.

After that, he made a long bow respectfully to Chen Sanyu.

After doing this, Zhang Xinhuai did not get up, but hunched his waist and said respectfully:

"Tell the demon king, the villain is Zhang Xinhuai, the town guard of Black Soil Town, and the parents of the people here, but I don't know if the demon king is visiting this town today, is it for a trip, or is he going to eat blood?"

Hearing this, Chen Sanyu immediately raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Demon King? Blood food?

"Tsk, you thought I was a monster."

Chen Sanyu, who only felt funny in his heart, immediately grinned his big mouth full of sharp teeth, and said along with Zhang Xinhuai's words:

"What if you come for the food of blood?"

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Xinhuai immediately made another long gesture and replied respectfully:

"So that the demon king knows that there is a special product in this town, which is Donghe sheep.

This mutton is famous for its delicious quality, if the soup is boiled, the meat is tender and the soup is white and fat but not greasy; If eaten raw, it is dense and elastic, fragrant and has no smell.

If the Demon King is interested, the official can use the power of the whole town to worship the sheep for the adults to eat. ”

"Oh, yes, but it's a pity ......"

Chen Sanyu held his chin and said, "I don't eat mutton." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xinhuai did not panic, made a long bow again, and continued to say respectfully:

"If the Demon King doesn't like mutton, my town can also honor six death row prisoners and give them to the adults to eat."

Chen Sanyu laughed silently:

"Six, that's good, then...... What if you want to add you? ”

Zhang Xinhuai, who was hunched over, immediately stiffened, then exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice:

"Yes, just ask the demon king to eat with blood, and then raise your noble hand to spare the people of this town."

After saying that, he prayed in his heart.

It's not that the big demon in front of him doesn't eat himself, but that the other party will spare the people.

Time seems to have stood still at this moment.

Zhang Xinhuai, his heart is like a drum.

Smack~smack~smack~

Suddenly, applause erupted in the quiet storeroom.

Zhang Xinhuai looked up in surprise, but found that ...... It was the big demon in front of him who was applauding.

"Not bad."

After Chen Sanyu slapped his palms a few times, he chuckled, "But it's a rare good official, Zhang Zhenshou, don't worry, I'm not a man-eating monster, just a passing traveler." ”

Yes? Person?!

Zhang Xinhuai was dumbfounded.

This one...... No matter how you look, it doesn't look like a human.

I don't mention any thoughts.

After knowing that the other party would not eat people, he immediately smiled and said again:

"That's it! That's it! No matter who the adult is, as long as the adult is in Black Earth Town for a day, the official will pay tribute to all the food and lodging of the adult, and if the adult needs money, the official will also seek the rich households in the town to raise it! ”

Zhang Xinhuai has only one thought at this moment.

Regardless of whether the other party is a human, a demon or a ghost, if he can drive the boundless demon mist, he will be a master of the world.

To treat a truly superior person, you must meet all the requirements of the other party.

As long as the people are not harmed, a little money is cheeky...... Nothing.

"Well, you don't have to do that here."

Chen Sanyu got up slowly, his head almost reaching the roof, "When I return at night, I can set up a table for food and wine." ”

With that, his figure blurred and disappeared into the storehouse in an instant.

After reading all the information, Chen Sanyu decided to find some monsters to play with.

The most important thing is to find the old man of Edgeworth in the memory of the original body.

And after Zhang Xinhuai found that Chen Sanyu had disappeared, he was stunned for a moment, and then raised his head and said loudly:

"According to the order of the lord, tonight the official will be full of food and wine in the palace, waiting for the lord!"
