Chapter 3: The Past
Chapter III
"Demon Suppressor!"
Zhao Fusheng was hit hard, and he retreated, and only stopped when his back was against the damp wooden pillar.
"The Great Han Dynasty, the Demon Suppression Division, Zhao Fusheng-"
With an ugly expression, she reached out and pounded the wooden pillar behind her.
The sound of 'bang' rang out, the power of the fist rebounded, and everything was very real.
This street was lifeless, as if the people living here had subconsciously restrained their sense of existence, and the sound of Zhao Fusheng slapping the wooden pillar soon attracted the snooping of people in the coffin shop.
A head leaned against the door frame and looked over here, the man's head was wide, his messy hair was tied up in a bun at the top of his head, his eyes were slender, and when he looked at it, Zhao Fusheng instinctively turned his head.
The two looked at each other, and the man let out a 'hiss' gasp, and then his eyes showed horror, and he quickly retracted his head.
At last, there was a loud 'bang', and the whole long street echoed.
The door of the coffin shop was slammed shut, and the signs hanging outside the door were shaking because of the force.
Zhao Fusheng's mind came up with this person's information: Lao Zhang of the coffin shop.
As the person's identity was remembered by her, more information related to it appeared in her mind.
Not long after 'she' came to the Demon Division, most of the people who accompanied her every day were the Fan brothers.
After the two brothers bought her, they did not sell her into the hands of some demons, but introduced her to the Demon Suppression Division, and made her the head of the Demon Suppression Division.
'She' was both surprised and apprehensive.
The Fan brothers did not offend her, except for the look in the eyes of 'her' that scared her, the two of them coexisted peacefully most of the time.
The two brothers were very strict with her at first, and they hardly allowed her to go out, so that she stayed in the Demon Suppression Division almost all the time of the day.
Then 'she' was so lucky that the two brothers gradually relaxed their control over her, and 'she' could occasionally stand at the door of the government office and look out, and gradually learned a little about the situation in the nearby street.
As time passed, the Fan brothers became more and more relaxed, and almost no longer followed 'her', and 'she' sometimes went out to look alone, and could see that there was something wrong with the eyes of people nearby looking at 'her'.
At that time, 'she' was puzzled, and she mustered up the courage to try to talk to someone, but as soon as she looked past, the people in both the coffin shop and the paper money, incense and candle shop all looked unlucky, and avoided her, treating her like a plague god.
'She' was not very old, timid and cowardly, and was so disgusted by everyone that she didn't dare to come forward again.
After that, strange things happened, and when 'she' realized that she was probably haunted by demons, she was so injured that she couldn't go out again, until she finally died.
Because of this, 'she' has a certain impression of this street, but she doesn't have much interaction with the people around her.
When I saw the owner of the coffin shop, I couldn't name this person, but I vaguely remembered that the Fan brothers had mentioned 'Lao Zhang of the coffin shop', and I didn't know anything about this person's name and what the situation was at home.
"......" Zhao Fusheng thought of this, his face turned pale.
She had realized that something was wrong.
It seems that she didn't just dream last night, it is very likely that the dream came true, she had an accident in the rental house, and after her death, her soul traveled through the Han Dynasty and was resurrected in this girl with the same name and surname.
It should have been a great joy to resurrect the dead from the dead, but she still remembered the scene in the dream: a strange time and space, an orphan girl whose parents died, a strange demon suppressor, and the original owner who was haunted by ghosts, and finally died by the scourge of ghosts.
Zhao Fusheng was in a daze, and the Fan brothers in the courtyard had a frightened look on their faces, and the two of them leaned on their shoulders, their faces were extremely ugly.
Looking in from where she stood, she could see the ruined courtyard, flanked by dilapidated wings.
The main hall was supposed to be a place to deal with official business, but at this time two corpses were placed.
And after a lightning strike last night, the main hall was damaged, and it looked even more dilapidated.
At this time, the sky was blue and white, and the light shone into the house through the big hole that was broken, and the tables and chairs below were dark and dull, I don't know if it was because there were still corpses that had not been removed, and the room always gave Zhao Fusheng a weird and cold feeling.
She rubbed her arms together and looked around uneasily.
Except for the Fan brothers, there was no other figure around, but she always felt that there was a pair of 'eyes' staring at her secretly, without emotion, there was a cruel and cold feeling, the same feeling as the 'Zhao Fusheng' in the dream after being spied on before he died.
She gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, hesitated, and stepped back into the courtyard.
"You...... Are you a human or a ghost? ”
Seeing her enter, Fan Wuxuan shrank behind his brother in fear, and took two steps back before he had the courage to ask.
"It's a person—" Fan Bi was bold and careful, and at this time his eyes fell behind her, and when he saw a shadow under her, he forced himself to calm down:
"If a ghost kills people, they usually create a ghost domain shroud ...... first" When he said this, he saw Zhao Fusheng frowning, thinking that she was a wild girl in the countryside before, and she probably didn't know anything about what the 'ghost domain' was.
Fan Bid's eyes flashed, explaining:
"The so-called ghost domain is the ghost hitting the wall mentioned in folklore."
Before the ghost kills someone, it will create a certain range of ghosts to hit the wall and trap people in it.
The ghosts created by low-level ghosts hit the wall smaller, and the damage range is also weak, which also means that the number of victims will be reduced; And the fierce ghost creatures can create a certain range of domains, such ghost domains are not only influential, but also powerful ghosts are like fish in water.
As soon as they enter the realm of ghosts, they are like prey to ghosts, allowing them to kill.
"Fusheng has a shadow at this time, walking around, I saw the coffin shop Lao Zhang's probe before, which proves that this place is not affected by the ghost domain, she should be a normal person who is still alive......"
"But-" Fan Wusu was relieved at first when he heard his brother say this, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and was taken aback:
"She's Dead from ......"
"Shut up!"
Fan Bi Death shouted and glared at his younger brother, not allowing him to say the rest of the words.
Fan Wusu was scolded by him, first shrunk his neck, and then glanced at his brother, the two brothers exchanged a look, the twin brothers had the same mind, Fan Wusu immediately understood what he meant, and quickly lowered his head.
"Fusheng, you had an accident yesterday, I personally probed your snort and confirmed that you were dead, how could you-"
After Fan Bi scolded his younger brother, he then turned his head and smiled at Zhao Fusheng.
He was both curious and a little apprehensive about it.
Zhao Fusheng is haunted by ghosts, and he has already triggered the rules of ghost killing, and it stands to reason that he will definitely die.
In fact, she is indeed dead, yesterday after she died in the Zhao family, she was disemboweled by ghosts, and the bodies of this family of three were collected by the two brothers of Fan Bi and died.
With such an injury, even if she didn't breathe at the time, she wouldn't have survived.
But at this time, she was jumping around, the wounds on her body were healed, and although her face was pale, her eyes were bright, as if she had swept away the bad luck of being haunted by ghosts before, and the whole person became much more energetic.
It's weird!
This kind of strange thing, Fan Bi died in the Demon Suppression Division for a long time, and he had never encountered it, he was a little curious in his heart, and Zhao Fusheng looked calm before meeting him, not as shrunken and cowardly as before, and he was also a little suspicious of her in his heart.
His mind raced to see if there was any record of such a bizarre and strange thing in the Demon Suppression Division, and it wasn't long before he came up with a possibility.
Zhao Fusheng didn't say anything, but his eyes fell on the two brothers, and he began to desperately begin to recall last night's dream, and search the only information in his mind, trying to figure out his situation.
After integrating the original Zhao Fusheng's memory, she probably sorted out a simple clue.
Zhao Fusheng was eighteen years old, born in Jiumen Village, under the rule of Wan'an County, and her parents were destitute, and three months ago, two people claiming to be the envoys of the Demon Suppression Division rushed to Jiumen Village and bought her for five copper plates.
At first, she thought that these two were not good people.
At this time, the world was chaotic, human life was like mustard, and many ruffians abducted women and children and sold them into filthy places, and the government did not care.
She followed these two people into Wan'an County in a daze, but she didn't expect that these two people did not sell her into the land of Fireworks Willow Lane, but really brought her into the Demon Suppression Division in Wan'an County.
When it comes to the Demon Suppression Division, we have to talk about the system of the Han Dynasty.
The original Zhao Fusheng was a country girl, she didn't know a single big word, and the farthest thing in her life was that this time she entered Wan'an County with Fan Bi's brother.
The rules and systems of the court are like listening to heaven for her, but she knows the Demon Suppression Division.
Nowadays, ghosts are in power, often harming people's lives, and many ghosts are very fierce, and can even slaughter villages and towns.
In order to quell the murder of ghosts, the imperial court has set up demon suppression divisions in states and counties across the country, and each demon suppression division will be equipped with a commander who sits in the town.
The Ling Division is in charge of ghost murder cases to ensure the peace of one party, and the Ling Division is equipped with the assistance of the order envoy, where there are ghosts, the local village head, Li Zheng reported to the town, and then the town reported to the county, and the county town demon division arranged manpower to eliminate hidden dangers.
In this way, the importance of the Demon Suppression Division to the people of the Han Dynasty is self-evident.
The identities of the two Fan brothers are the envoys of the Demon Division of Wan'an County, such an identity and status are not even controlled by the local county order, far above the county officials, for the original Zhao Fusheng, they are great figures.
When he learned that such a pair of twin brothers had really brought him into the Demon Suppression Division, Zhao Fusheng was so apprehensive and frightened in his heart.
Later, what made her even more disturbing was that the brothers did not hurt her, but informed her that the former Ling Si of the Demon Suppression Division died unexpectedly on the way to destroy the ghosts, and now the position of Ling Si in the government is vacant.
The two of them were entrusted by the previous Lingsi to be on the verge of death, saying that the next Lingsi would come from Jiumen Village under the rule of Wan'an County, and they found her through the guidance of the previous Lingsi and asked her to take the position of the head of this division.
Zhao Fusheng was frightened at that time, if he was a quail, in the face of the two brothers, if you say a word to me, where do you dare to prevaricate, naturally she is the only one, they say what she does.
In the end, she became the head of this department.
……
Zhao Fusheng thought about it at this time, and felt that the original Zhao Fusheng was not only confused about the duties of the Demon Suppression Division, but also died unclearly.
