Chapter XII

The two brothers made it clear that they wanted to stand by and watch.

Zhao Fusheng sneered:

"My father and mother died unjustly, aren't you afraid of stirring up a corpse mutiny, and there will be a powerful ghost again?"

As soon as Fan Bidie heard this, he couldn't help laughing:

"Fusheng, you don't know anything." He explains:

"As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Ghosts also have their own rules, and high-level ghosts will have a certain amount of suppression of ghosts in the same field, and if your parents turn into ghosts, then it is very likely to restrain each other, but form a perfect situation. ”

At last, he paused again, and then said:

"If only one ghost is resurrected, and one person is really dead, then you are the head of the Demon Suppression Division, and you yourself said that you want to revive the Demon Suppression Division, then it is your duty to solve the ghost disaster, what does it have to do with us?"

From his words, Zhao Fusheng drew two useful clues:

First, in this era, people may indeed turn into ghosts when they die, so she has also found the source of the formation of powerful ghosts, but in this way, it seems that the situation is even worse.

Because people will become ghosts if they die with grievances and resentment, the appearance of ghosts is impossible to prevent, especially when Fan Bi Death mentioned the appearance of 'ghost fog', which seems to be extremely beneficial to the birth of ghosts, but in comparison, it is very unfavorable to human beings.

According to what Fan Bi Death said, the only way for humans to deal with ghosts is to use the power of ghosts to fight ghosts, but the consequences of dealing with ghosts are heavy, and the probability of death is high - if the ghosts are frequently revived, Wan'an County has almost no way to live.

She frowned with a little headache, and then thought about the second possibility that Fan Bi Death had mentioned.

Fan Bi said that after Zhao Fusheng's parents turned into powerful ghosts, they might restrain each other.

According to her previous cognition, people should have memories of death and become ghosts, and it can be heard from Fan Bi's words that people here turn into ghosts after death, as if they will lose their memory and reason, and only know that they instinctively make killing.

But that's just her guess.

Fan Bi died after learning that she was unwilling to take out the souls of the two people, obviously not to tell her the extra news, but she could verify this in the process of dealing with ghosts in the future.

"It seems that ghosts are indeed transformed by human death." She answered.

Fan Bidie's expression became ugly, he sneered, and did not say anything more.

"Since the Demon Suppression Division has no money, your brothers have no way, and they are not afraid of the resurgence of ghosts, my father's funeral must always be done." Zhao Fusheng said calmly.

When Fan Wusu heard this, he was about to speak, but Fan Bi Death glanced at him, and then shook his head.

Zhao Fusheng just didn't see the communication between the two brothers, and said:

"It's better to borrow two coffins on credit from Boss Zhang of the coffin shop first, and then repay the money in the future when the Demon Suppression Division is on the right track."

"......" She used to be timid and cowardly, but now she dares to find someone to owe money and property, which makes Fan Bi die look at her a little differently.

"I can't borrow it." But even so, Fan Bi Death still shook his head and said with some regret.

"Can't borrow it?" Zhao Fusheng was really a little unhappy now, "You are so dignified people from the Demon Division, and you don't look like some kind people, how can you not borrow two coffins?" ”

Fan said without help:

"I really can't borrow it. Why haven't you moved the coffin shop so far? ”

The Demon Suppression Division is now disgraced, and almost all of them have died in a short period of time, which frightened the nearby merchants and moved out overnight.

"The reason why Lao Zhang didn't move away is purely because he can't move."

"It's true that there is no help." Fan Bi died:

"At the beginning of our funeral, we all asked him to borrow a coffin on credit, but now he has accumulated a lot of money, so he is forced to stay here." Speaking of this, his voice changed:

"Since you have decided to revive the Demon Suppression Division, then there is a good thing, Lao Zhang said that we owed a lot before, and now you are the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, he said to see when you are free, and settle the previous arrears of the Demon Suppression Division."

"Do you want to pay it back?" Zhao Fusheng raised his voice and asked.

"Don't dare not pay it back." Fan Bi pulled the corners of his mouth, "His surname is Zhang." ”

"Zhang?" When Zhao Fusheng heard this, he looked at Fan Bi's dead expression again, and suddenly remembered someone in his heart:

"You mean paper man?"

She was reborn in the Han Dynasty, and she was not familiar with this place, but she had heard the Fan brothers mention it several times.

Fan Bi Die seemed to be quite jealous of him, and even used introducing this person to himself as a condition for trading with her.

"Not bad." Fan Bi didn't hide it from her, and said bluntly:

"The two of them are of the same clan and clan, I advise you not to offend him, the coffin, you better find another way, you can't borrow on credit, now Boss Zhang only accepts cash, never on credit."

His demeanor was arrogant, and his words were provocative, as if he deliberately wanted to stir up Zhao Fusheng's true fire.

Zhao Fusheng heard him say this, was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled coldly:

"You call the old man from this coffin shop."

Her performance was unexpected by Fan Bid, Fan Bidan was stunned for a moment, and then he also 'sneered', turned his head and said:

"There is no help, you call Boss Zhang to come over."

Fan Wusu listened to him very much, and when he said this, he stopped at the door and shouted loudly:

"Lao Zhang, come and settle the bill!"

His voice was loud and his voice was bright, and as soon as the shouting fell, everyone nearby could hear it clearly, not only Lao Zhang in the coffin shop poked his head out, but even the incense, candle, paper and money shop had people come out.

Fan Bi smiled when he died, and his eyes were a little ill-intentioned:

"Fusheng, I forgot to tell you, because of the funeral before, not only the coffin shop owed money, but even the incense candle paper money shop also owed a lot of money——"

"It's okay, you call along."

Zhao Fusheng groaned slightly, and then nodded.

She looked unhurried, her face was calm and composed, Fan Bidan looked at her suspiciously, her brows furrowed, but she didn't speak again.

Lao Zhang, who was in the coffin shop, quickly brought a scrawny guy over.

The old man was half-bald on the top of his head, the tip of his nose was red, his slender eyes flashed from time to time, and he had a roe deer and rat eyes, which made people disgusted at the sight.

At this time, he was suddenly called by the Fan brothers to the Demon Suppression Division, and he didn't know what these people were planning in their hearts, so he stared at Zhao Fusheng in disbelief.

He was no stranger to Zhao Fusheng, and his relationship with the paper man Zhang made him know that Zhao Fusheng was just a substitute ghost found by the Fan brothers, and the death of the three members of the Zhao family in the Demon Suppression Division at the hands of powerful ghosts could not be concealed from him yesterday, but he did not expect that the dead person would appear in front of him early this morning.

When he saw Zhao Fusheng, he thought that he had seen a ghost in the daytime, and he scared him on the spot.

"You ......"

He stared at Zhao Fusheng suspiciously.

At this time, when he was in close contact, he naturally recognized that although Zhao Fusheng's face was pale, his eyes were bright and bright, and his breath was even, and he was obviously a big living person.

"I heard that our Demon Suppressor owes a lot of money?" Zhao Fusheng ignored his tentative look, but asked in a deep voice.

She was thin and wore a dress that obviously did not fit well, but the demeanor and tone of her voice were completely different from before, her gaze was no longer evasive, and she looked at people calmly.

Lao Zhang can open a coffin shop on this street, naturally he is not an ordinary person, thinking of her situation, the same idea as Fan Bi died welled up in his mind: ghost man.

Could it be that this girl who was supposed to lead away the troubled water was a 'blessing' because of the misfortune and successfully controlled the out-of-control ghost?

He thought in his heart, but his mouth echoed again and again:

"Yes."

"How much you owe, you count."

Zhao Fusheng said.

Lao Zhang was puzzled, but he still recruited the guy with a big belly who followed him.

The man looked blank and stepped forward with the account book in his hand.

He looked very strange, his limbs were long, his cheeks were only skin and bones, and his eyelids were pulled, but his belly was as big as a basket, which made him move a little slowly.

When he stood in front of Zhao Fusheng, he raised his eyelids, the whites of his eyes were yellow, and his eyes looked a little cloudy.

When he got closer, Zhao Fusheng faintly smelled that there seemed to be a faint smell of corpses lingering on him.

I don't know if it's because of a ghost wrapped around his body, Zhao Fusheng is extremely sensitive to the 'ghost' qi, and when he saw it, he was suddenly terrified, and he felt that it was not a big living person standing in front of him.

But compared to Zhao Fusheng's nervousness, the guy was even more uneasy, there was a 'ho-ho' sound in his nasal cavity, and there seemed to be something squirming in his big belly, and he lifted his clothes and kept moving along his stomach.

When Lao Zhang saw this scene, he was relieved.

He motioned for the man to put the book down and waved him back.

The fellow hurriedly retreated, and it was not until he exited the courtyard that the fellow barely regained some composure, and no longer spun around like a headless fly.

"In the past, the debts of the Demon Suppression Division are all here."

Zhao Fusheng withdrew his attention from the guy, her eyes fell on the account book, she did not check the account book, but asked:

"How much do you owe in total?"

Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment when he saw her simply, and then smiled:

"Something has happened to the Demon Suppression Division since last year......" he said this, turning his head to look at the Fan brothers.

Fan Bidan nodded imperceptibly, he breathed a sigh of relief silently, and then said:

"A total of thirty-two coffins were used, and each coffin amounted to three taels of silver according to the previous rules." When the old man talked about money, he swept away his cringe:

"Therefore for thirty-two coffins, ninety-six taels of silver should be given."

After speaking, he secretly raised his eyelids and glanced at Zhao Fusheng:

"You're right?"

Zhao Fusheng didn't know anything about the prices of the Han Dynasty at this time, but she had a keen intuition and insight.

She turned her head to look at Fan Bi Death, revealing a meaningful smile.

In Fan Bid's conversation with her, he mentioned a very critical issue: when he bought Zhao Fusheng to send him to death, he spent five copper plates.

If the price of a human life is only worth five copper plates, the price of a coffin can buy six hundred Zhao Fusheng - this is obviously unreasonable.

However, her goal is not above the price, she heard Lao Zhang's words, and nodded boldly:

"No problem!"

The old Zhang was stunned by her response, and only raised his voice after a while and asked:

"Are you serious?"

"Yes."

Zhao Fusheng nodded:

"Add two more coffins, a total of 102 taels of silver, what do you think?"

When Lao Zhang heard her say this, he was first happy, and then he felt bad.

If Zhao Fusheng is not responsive, he is prepared in advance.

But he said the price of the coffin casually, how did she know how much she would order for a coffin?

At this time, her score is not bad, which shows that she is not an illiterate person.

But the Fan brothers clearly found her from the countryside, it is said that the three members of the Zhao family are illiterate, Lao Zhang has seen her before, and she is indeed cringe, and she does not dare to communicate with others, how can she talk to him at this time and answer like a stream?

He was born with doubts, and instinctively vigilant:

"Yes, yes, but how are you going to pay for it?"

"I don't have any money."

Zhao Fusheng said simply.

"What?" When Lao Zhang saw her talking about 'no money', he looked calm, and suddenly felt ridiculous:

"Aren't you looking for me to be happy?" After saying that, he made a gesture to recruit a man to take the account book away.

"Not really." Zhao Fusheng pressed his hand on the account book and stopped his movements:

"We have something to discuss. I don't have any money for the time being, but in the name of the Demon Suppressor, I'll borrow 110 taels of silver from you on credit—"

She laughed angrily when she said this, and he even forgot that Zhao Fusheng was riding a ghost, and hurriedly said:

"That's not good, I won't tell you, how can the Demon Suppression Division have any prestige now?"

If in the past, when Zhao Qiming and other Ling Si were still alive, these people were experienced and had considerable means, known as 'borrowing money', Lao Zhang believed in their ability to 'repay money', but he really didn't dare not borrow.

Now—

Lao Zhang of the coffin shop kept shaking his head:

"Can't borrow, can't borrow—"

The Fan brothers clasped their hands to their chests and watched a good show on the sidelines.

Zhao Fusheng was not angry, and said:

"Then I'll borrow two more coffins and pay back the money in the future, do you think it's okay?"

"No, either." Lao Zhang still shook his head.

Zhao Fusheng was rejected by him again, and he was not angry, and made another suggestion:

"It's better like this, you can give some grace later, and in the future, when I master the Demon Suppression Division, I will borrow some silver from the rich families and squires in Wan'an County and then come back to you."

"I can't wait for the future, the situation in Wan'an County is not right, after collecting this debt, I will leave this place with my family......"

He made it clear that he was not optimistic about the future of Wan'an County.

While talking, the owner of the incense candle paper money shop outside also came.

This man was an old man with a slumped back, his expression was a little gloomy, and the most strange thing was that there were two strange 'boys' beside him.

The two 'boys' had red cheeks, grinned at the corners of their mouths, and their expressions were stiff, not like real people, but they also had a ghost spirit.

As Fan Bi said, in this street, most of the people who stay behind probably have their own means of self-protection, which should not be underestimated.

Zhao Fusheng glanced at it, didn't pay attention to it, but stared at this old Zhang:

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you want?"

"I want ......"

As soon as Lao Zhang heard this, his eyes showed a fine light, and he subconsciously opened his mouth, and then saw Zhao Fusheng's smiling expression.

As soon as he saw this, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

"The Demon Suppression Division encountered a ghost disaster, and everyone else left, so you didn't leave, and you really had other ideas."

Zhao Fusheng said with a smile:

"I don't know yet, there is anything else in the Demon Suppression Division that is worth your attention to like this." After speaking, he said:

"Tell me, what do you want?"

“……”

Lao Zhang's expression was uncertain, his eyes showed remorse, and he secretly hated that she had taken out the news in just a few words.
