When Zhong Zhutou returned home, it was naturally still early, and his wife and children were peeling broad beans together in the courtyard, and his son's ears were bright, and when he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw his father coming to the gate of the courtyard.

"Mother, dad is back, dad is back, daddy, why are you back so early today?"

The son put down the broad beans in his hand, rushed to Zhong Zhutou, reached out to hug his father, and touched his saber with his hand.

"Well, this can't be played with by you!"

Zhong Zhutou was very skillful in blocking the knife, and then scratched his son's squeaky nest, and the latter "giggled" and was defeated by his father's "strong martial arts".

Seeing the father and son playing there, the wife over there looked at it and smiled, but when Zhong Zhutou came over, she also asked suspiciously.

"Xianggong, why did you come back so early today, the sun is still hanging high?"

Zhong Zhutou had already untied the saber at his waist at this moment, walked to the living room and put it on the knife holder, easily avoiding the "sneak attack" from his son's back, picked it up and lifted it to the top of his head, and at the same time answered his wife's words.

"Oh, the county government has something to do, I have to be on duty in the middle of the night, so go home early to rest."

The wife suddenly frowned and asked with concern.

"It's the middle of the night again? What's the matter? ”

"Alas, why do you ask so much about your woman's family, many brothers in the yamen eat and live in the county government, and I am much more comfortable than them."

The wife was a little absent-minded when she peeled broad beans, and Zhong Zhutou was playing with her son in the living room, although his son was young, he was shouting to practice martial arts, but his body was still immature, so he mainly played around.

"Alas, then I'll cook early, why are there so many things in our county recently, I have to go to the temple to pray for you!"

Hearing this, Zhong Zhutou remembered that because he was busy on weekdays, his wife was in charge of all the trivial things at home, including things like worshipping ancestors and praying for blessings, maybe she would know more about some ghosts and gods.

The main thing is that some thoughts in Zhong Yu's mind will linger, and he urgently needs to communicate with people.

"Lady, I want to ask you something, you said that people become ghosts after death, do you remember the things before you died?"

Hearing this kind of child's question, the woman who picked up the small bamboo weave also smiled.

"Then naturally remember, otherwise how can the relatives and elders who have passed away bless us? How do you know who sacrificed and who burned paper? ”

"Yes."

Zhong Zhutou nodded and added another sentence.

"Then you said that those ghosts who died unjustly, do you remember things, can you understand who killed yourself?"

The woman gave the man a blank look.

"Shocked by the investigation of the case? You're still on the sidelines, you scary kid! ”

"Mother, I'm not afraid of ghosts!"

"What do you know?"

The woman went into the kitchen with the broad beans, and then went to the jar to scoop water and wash the rice, and when she was ready, she was ready to put the rice and the broad beans in the pot, and the rice washing water was loaded.

Because of the special work of head-catching, there is often some rice washing water at home, and it is not too much, and the rice washing water for cooking every day is left for a while, and it can be changed the next day, which can wash away some special tastes.

The bell catcher over there also walked into the kitchen, lit a fire in front of the stove, and still talked about what had just happened.

"I'm just asking."

The woman put on the steaming rack and put a bowl of bacon on the table, and replied angrily.

"Haven't you heard people scold fools for hanging ghosts? There are so many kinds of ghosts, of course, some understand and some are confused, but they must remember things, okay, don't talk about this, listen to the madness! ”

"Okay, okay, don't say it, don't say it."

"Daddy, I'll light the fire, I'll light the fire!"

The child began to make trouble again, and Zhong Zhutou had no choice but to burn the fire with him.

The family rested peacefully until midnight, and when it was almost an hour, Zhong Zhutou woke up directly, in fact, he didn't sleep much in the middle of the night.

got up lightly, did not wake up his wife and children, and then went out after dressing.

It's still dark tonight, it's hard to see the stars and moon in the sky, and you can still see some sunshine in the afternoon, but it's going to be gloomy again, and it won't rain in the middle of the night.

Thinking back to what Xue Daoren said during the day, Zhong Zhutou couldn't help but feel slightly nervous in his heart, that powerful ghost prefers to come out on a rainy day, right?

When Zhong Zhutou arrived at the county office, the watchman had just passed by outside, and the time had just come, and the people on duty in the county office also happened to change shifts.

"Ho Catcher, you're finally here" "Trapped me."

"I'm not sleepy, I'm just a little scared."

"Hahaha, coward!"

The officials on duty and on duty talked and joked with each other, which was both refreshing and courageous, and then Zhong Zhutou began to patrol the yamen with people as usual.

Everything was arranged during the day, but tonight's county government seemed to be extremely cold, so that the officials who followed him shivered from time to time.

There was no one outside in Liu's courtyard tonight, not even Xue Daoren, Liu and Qiao'er were both in the house, even lying in the same bed, but obviously no one dared to sleep.

"Qiao'er, thank you for being with me. Do you think the devil will come? "Madame, don't mention that word, I'm afraid."

Qiao'er couldn't help but hug the woman next to her.

Zhong Zhutou walked to the periphery of the courtyard of Liu's house, walked into a room over there, and felt much warmer as soon as he entered, in addition to Xue Daoren and some colleagues.

Seeing the head catcher come in with the patrolling brother, the people inside shouted a few words in a low voice, but the head catcher went straight to Xue Daoren, who was sitting there with his eyes closed.

"Dao Chief, everything is normal in the county office, it should be fine tonight, right?"

Xue Daoren opened his eyes and looked at the headcatcher.

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say, it's just that there are only three things, although it's not everything, but the third time that the ghost appears, it will definitely be even more powerful, this thing is very evil"

In Xue Dao's heart, he knew that this powerful ghost was by no means simple, but he still did not prepare for the premise of directly removing the ghost.

"Dao Chief, Zhong has the courage to ask, do you want to get rid of the ghost directly, can you catch it and ask about it?"

Xue Daoren looked at the head catcher in a little surprise, he had thought that some righteous people in the yamen would help, but he hadn't given much guidance, but he didn't expect the head catcher himself to say such a thing, so he said the opposite.

"Ask? Hehe, Zhong Zhutou, mortals have a lot of officialdom truths, but the ghosts and ghosts don't care about these, some things are buried with the soil when they die, and they are a hundred, so there will be murder and extermination, if you really want to ask something, I'm afraid it's not good for everyone."

Killing people and killing mouths, these four words are also the four words that Zhong Zhutou cares about the most, and he has not handled some important cases over the years, but they are often unsuccessful.

Although it is only a small county town, the special environment of Haiyu County has led to the development here, and there are many dirty things.

There are some things, Zhong Zhutou has been on fire in his heart, and the so-called cold-faced and hot-hearted people in the ordinary sense are actually people like Zhong Zhutou.

As the white-haired old man in the day said, it was difficult to stretch his chest with righteousness, but in the face of Xue Daoren's words at this moment, Zhong Zhutou still chose to be silent and didn't ask too much.

Time passed little by little, maybe half an hour passed, maybe an hour passed, some people had fallen asleep, and many people were relaxed.

"Boom"

Thunder faintly sounded in the sky again, and the entire county of Beihai County was shrouded in rain clouds, and Haiyu County was naturally no exception.

"It's going to rain."

There was a servant in the room who said this, as if to confirm his words, and soon the sound of rain outside sounded "bang-la-la", and everyone was nervous at this moment.

In the sound of the rain, Liu seemed to be able to hear a special dripping sound in the house, and this sound became more and more obvious, so much so that it overwhelmed the sound of rain.

"It's all you, it's all you."

Liu was horrified to find that he couldn't move.

"Qiao'er, Qiao'er-"

Liu shouted, but the people sleeping on the bed together did not respond, and even Liu felt that the bed was wet.

"It's all you"

The voice seemed to be beside him, and Liu Shi felt that the person in front of him seemed to be very cold, and it was also at this time that the person with the quilt slowly turned around, and it was a bloody and terrifying face.

"Ahh

Liu screamed, but the screaming suddenly stopped, and his neck was already choked by the ghost.

At this time, the real Qiao'er suddenly noticed that something was wrong.

"Madame, ma'am? Why are you shaking?"

Qiao'er reached out to touch Liu, but found that the other party was not only shaking, but also cold, although her eyes were closed, her eyelids were shaking rapidly, and more importantly, her hands were pinching her neck.

Qiao'er had a strong fear in her heart, and subconsciously looked at the doors and windows, but there was no reaction at all when the spell was floating.

"Madam, Madam, let go, let go, don't scare me"

Qiao'er grabbed Liu's hand but couldn't break it, and went down in horror to touch the talisman on Liu's chest, but as soon as she started it, she found that the bag containing the talisman was already wet

"Ahh

Qiao'er's screams came out, and the other people in the courtyard were shocked, and Xue Daoren, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes at once.

"What?" "Let's go—"

Together with Xue Daoren and Zhong Zhutou, a group of people rushed out of the house and went straight to the courtyard next to them, and as soon as they came to the front of the house, Qiao'er had already opened the door.

"What's going on?" "Where's Madame?" "There!"

Xue Daoren and Zhong Zhutou rushed indoors as soon as possible, and Liu's body, who was sleeping on the bed and in clothes, was constantly twitching, and his face was already blue and purple

"What a ghost! Is it in a dream? ”

Xue Daoren had already taken out a charm as he spoke, and pasted it towards Liu's head.

Swish~

The white light flashed, and a cloud of black gas exploded on Liu's body, and at the same time, a terrible scream came from the door.

"Uh-"

Some of the officials in front of the door couldn't help but cover their ears, and many people looked out of the door in horror, and the ghosts that were visible to everyone's naked eyes had already appeared outside, which were the ghosts described by Qiao'er.

"You've killed me, return my husband, return my life—"

The ghost wanted to rush over, but at this moment, the spells on the doors and windows had already worked, and the resentment collided with the rune light, and the wind and rain outside became even more crazy and weird for a while.

The ghosts kept crashing into the house, the wind and rain became more violent, and there was a sense of chaos in the horror.

Xue Daoren's robes were blown and swayed, the charms on the doors and windows flew away one by one, and some officials were so frightened that they kept retreating, only Zhong Zhutou drew his sword and kept moving forward, but he also had to use one hand to block the wind.

"Damn, how can this thing be so strong!"

Xue Daoren couldn't help but burst into foul language, thinking of dragon scales in his heart but he didn't have time to care about it, he originally had the idea of trapping ghosts, but now he was afraid that he could only retreat.

"Open it for me!"

With both hands pinching the spell, Xue Daoren pointed to both sides, and several special charms rose from all corners of the courtyard.

Boom~

The four directions came to the light and made a special net.

"Ahh

The ghost was shrouded in light, but it seemed to have a brute force, and the rain around it seemed to become sticky, constantly contaminating that kind of magic light.

"Not good!"

Xue Daoren, shouted, the bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger, this is a ghost, or it is not a pure ghost, but more like a demon!

And it's much stronger than you think, or it's getting stronger much faster!

But it's too late to understand that!

The hole cards were launched in advance, and Xue Daoren bit off the left and right index fingers, drawing spells on the palms of both hands, and then lifting his hands left and right upwards while shouting.

"The Golden Rooster Announces the Dawn—"

A spell that had been placed at the top of the pillar outside the house appeared, with a large rooster drawn on it.

But before the spell could shine, the sticky water had already wrapped around the spell in advance, and the big rooster on the spell seemed to be stuck in the mud, flapping its wings and constantly flapping to escape

It's over, it's over. I'm going to explain it here!

Suddenly, a rooster crowed.

"Oooh-oh-"

This voice sounded outside the county office, but it had a strong penetrating power, directly spreading throughout the entire county office, and even spreading to several streets and surrounding residential squares.

At the same time, the people in the county office saw the light of the sky as if they were delusional, followed by the screams of ghosts.

"Ahh

Just like the scorching sun scorching all evils, the talisman net originally arranged by Xue Daoren also re-lit.
