Chapter 34: Headless Ghost Corpses

CHAPTER XXXIV

Zhao Fusheng's eyes widened suddenly:

"These two are so powerful?! Or did you use a knife?! ”

But as soon as she finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong.

According to Zhao Fusheng's original memory, at this time, iron items were strictly controlled, and if they were not instructed by the government, it was a crime to sell daggers, swords and other things privately, and they would be exiled or sentenced to death.

Ordinary people have scarce iron utensils, and the kitchen knives, sickles, hoes and other things they have at home are all treasures in the family, and they are heirlooms, and it is impossible to carry them with them, let alone bring them into the flowing water banquet held by the Liu family.

It's not that the knife is moved, it must be infested with ghosts.

Her heart tightened, and then she asked:

"Is it a ghost?"

Now she was right.

Liu Wu's face turned pale, and he nodded:

"Yes!"

The two of them fight, overturning the table and knocking off the head of the neighbor at the next table, and at first everyone didn't realize that it was a haunting, and thought that there was a homicide.

At that time, there was no ghost fog in Wan'an County, and the Ling Si who sat in charge of the Demon Division was Su Long, who was quite capable and upright, and he was on one side, and he also handled several ghost cases, and his reputation was prominent.

Wan'an County was quite peaceful under his rule at that time, and everyone had no crisis against ghosts.

"After the accident, my father was furious, and he stepped forward with a knife to arrest the two hooligans who were making trouble.

When he said the key point, he began to be scared again, Zhao Fusheng had no choice but to turn pale and drank:

"I don't know what! Don't spit it out! ”

Her scolding is more effective than appeasement, the demon suppression division is famous, Liu Wu was drunk by her, and suddenly a spirit:

"I don't know that the body with the head off did not fall, but got up from the bench and walked over to the two people who were fighting."

Liu Wu's expression was sluggish:

"My father came nearer, and saw the headless body walk up to the two men who were fighting, and then stretched out his arms—" He said, the muscles of his cheeks twitching:

"Like picking a melon, he plucked off the head of one of the people who was fighting and put it on his neck."

'Shhh ’

Zhao Fusheng gasped.

Headless ghosts! The names of the ghosts recorded in the dossier poured out in her mind, which corresponded to the information about the ghosts that Liu Wu mentioned at this time.

Liu Wu didn't say anything more, but she could almost imagine the scene at that time.

On the big birthday, suddenly a headless corpse suddenly stood up and picked the head of a living person and installed it on his head, so you can imagine how much impact it would cause at the birthday banquet at that time.

However, Liu Wu's words were disguised to make up for her lack of information about the Liu family, and Zhao Fusheng was uneasy and a little happy in his heart.

"After the birthday banquet was chaotic, everyone screamed loudly, and my grandfather and they were also frightened, and everyone realized that the Liu family was haunted."

Once there is a ghost disaster, ordinary people are powerless to solve it, so it should naturally be handed over to the Demon Suppression Division.

"My lord, they are ready to act separately as soon as possible, on the one hand, they want to inform the Liu family of the news, and on the other hand, they want to inform the Demon Suppression Division of the news, so that they can go and solve the matter." Unexpectedly, after Liu Wu's grandfather saw Liu Huacheng, he didn't seem to be very surprised by this matter.

"His first instinct was to inform the Demon Suppressor."

Liu Huacheng has been prepared for this for a long time.

The information revealed from Liu Wu's words can vaguely correspond to the words of the paper man.

Liu Huacheng lost his official position and went home that year, and sure enough, because he made a mistake during his tenure, he brought a mutilated ghost corpse back to Liu's house, and he didn't know what method he relied on to suppress the ghosts, but in the end, the ghosts recovered, and he made a big fuss at the banquet during his birthday banquet.

"At that time, the birthday banquet was set up near the ancestral hall of the Liu family, which is the area of Yaofan Hutong now—Yaofan Hutong was not called this at that time."

"Wenchang Road?"

Zhao Fusheng's heart moved and asked.

Liu Wu nodded hurriedly:

"Yes, yes, it's called Wenchang Road, and the name of the alley was changed later."

She had a calm face:

"Are you sure?"

"Sure! Are you sure. Although Liu Wu didn't know why she attached importance to this issue, he didn't dare to slack off, and agreed repeatedly:

"This Wenchang Road also has a history, this old man of the Liu family was in the imperial court back then, and he was a great official, he was smart since he was a child, and he was admitted to the exam, just like Wenqu Xing descended to earth, so that road was named because of this."

After saying that, he complimented again:

"In recent years, many people in Wan'an County don't know this name, but the adults are really well-informed, which shows that they are sincerely handling cases for the people of Wan'an County."

Wenchang Road.

Zhao Fusheng ignored his clever words, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing that he confirmed that Wenchang Road was the predecessor of the rice alley.

The information in the dossier records that the haunted place of the Liu family was on 'Wenchang Road', and now forty years later, Yaofan Hutong is haunted again.

She went to find the paper man Zhang, wanted to get information from him, and when she heard him firmly believe that the two ghost cases were actually the same case, she had suspicions.

After all, although the haunted areas are all related to the Liu family, the haunted place in the dossier forty years ago was Wenchang Road, and now the haunted place is the Yaofan Hutong in the area of the Confucius Temple.

But at this time, Liu Wu's words and the dossier verified each other, solved the mystery in her heart, and temporarily relieved her uneasy heart.

"My lord, is there anything wrong with Wenchang Road?"

Liu Wu felt that her expression seemed to be a little serious, and asked timidly.

"It's okay, you go on."

Zhao Fusheng did not trust him 100% in his heart.

She went to the county government for help, and the county magistrate of Wan'an County seemed to have been temporarily appointed to find a messenger for her to drive a car, but this errand happened to have a relationship with Liu Huacheng of the Liu family's ghost case forty years ago, and it happened that his grandfather was a witness to the ghost case back then.

Zhao Fusheng thought a little uneasily: This is too much of a coincidence.

She also knew that she was too suspicious, but this was a strange time, and she didn't have anyone available and credible.

After coming back from the dead, the people around her, whether it is the Fan brothers, Zhang Chuanshi or the paper man Zhang, are all ill-intentioned, if they are not suspicious enough, I am afraid that they don't even know how to die in the end.

Liu Wu didn't know what she was thinking, and after listening to her urging, he responded:

"Whoa."

After the appearance of the ghosts, the people were terrified and ran wildly.

But the ghost disaster has happened, and there is a ghost domain in the area of the old Wenchang Road, and everyone is trapped in it and can't get out at all.

"On the contrary, because of the indiscriminate running, many people died one after another, and the entire Liu family was full of heads and melon seeds."

“……”

Zhao Fusheng imagined the scene at that time, the happy event turned into a large-scale ghost funeral, and the people who experienced the disaster at that time did not know how much fear they were in their hearts.

Liu Wu paused when he said this, and then said:

"But my lord said that Master Liu had a way, so he left the Liu family and notified the Demon Suppression Division, and after the people from the Demon Suppression Division came, they took control of the situation."

When Zhao Fusheng heard this, his heart couldn't help but move:

"How did your grandfather survive?"

Liu Wu perked up and said:

"Originally, my father also thought that he would definitely die, but at that time, Lord Su Long Su of the Demon Suppression Division was very capable, and as soon as he came, he stopped everyone from scattering and gathered all the survivors together."

His words surprised Zhao Fusheng.

It stands to reason that if everyone gathers in one place, it is easier to become a target, and if the ghost enters the crowd, won't it kill a large number of people?

"Master Su said that this powerful ghost killing method is to find the head."

When everyone first realized that the ghost disaster had occurred, it was also because two people competed for a copper coin and inadvertently knocked off the head that the ghost 'grabbed', forcing the ghost to find his head and kill people.

Zhao Fusheng nodded, and then thoughtfully:

"In other words, the main purpose of this ghost is to find his head, and killing people is just a collateral consequence."

"What do you mean by that, sir?"

Liu Wu's thinking was stiff, and when he first heard this, he didn't know what to do, so he couldn't help but ask subconsciously.

After asking, he was worried that Zhao Fusheng mistakenly thought that he was interrogating her, which would anger the people of the Demon Suppression Division, and suddenly showed a look of panic on his face.

But to his surprise, Zhao Fusheng was not angry, but said:

"I may not understand this, but if I say it in a different way, maybe you will understand." She patiently explained to Liu Wu:

"From what you say, this ghost has a body and no head, and its characteristic is to seek the head as the main thing, it removes the human head and puts it on itself, and the others will die if they lose their heads."

"Yes......" Liu Wu still seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but nodded instinctively at her words.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and continued:

"Suppose we say that the ghost has a head but no hands, or that it has a head, hands but no feet, or that it has lost its eyes, nose, ears, and other organs, it is possible that what it is looking for is what is missing."

But if a person misses his hands, feet, eyes, nose, ears, etc., he will not die.

As soon as she explained like this, Liu Wu suddenly realized and said happily:

"I see!"

He seems to have discovered a great secret:

"I think the Demon Suppression Division's case handling is mysterious and dangerous, but I didn't expect there to be such an interesting law in it, Lord Zhao is really powerful, he hasn't experienced the ghost case forty years ago, but he said this thing is not bad at all."

Zhao Fusheng was not complacent because of his deliberate words to please, and just shook his head when he heard this:

"I'm just summarizing the rules after the fact, it's not a big deal."

However, Liu Wu's mention of this ghost case also gave her new inspiration, making her vaguely understand what Fan Biying had mentioned: The meaning of 'ghost killing rules'.

"You go on." She motioned for Liu Wu to continue, and Liu Wu nodded:

"Yes!"

I don't know if Zhao Fusheng's calm and calm attitude affected him, which made him have a little more hope for this trip and swept away the previous malaise:

"Master Su gathered everyone together and said that as long as everyone sits honestly, don't move, and don't touch their own or others' necks at will, don't give this ghost a chance to take advantage of, this ghost may not kill people at will."

Of course, there is no reason for the ghosts.

Su Long's words are just speculation, and there is a kind of 'gambler' mentality.

Fortunately, he was very lucky in the end and won the 'bet'.

After no one moved, the evil situation of the Liu family's dead people was stopped at once, and Liu Wu's grandfather was not very clear about the situation after that, but it was roughly the same as the record in the file of the Demon Suppression Division - in the end, the envoy who walked with Su Long died, and Su Long was lucky not to die with the power of the powerful ghost on his body, and withdrew from the territory of the Liu family in embarrassment.

Zhao Fusheng also knew about the situation after that.

Su Long didn't dare to set foot in the Liu family again, but Liu Huacheng was very bold and decisive, and he used half of the wealth accumulated by the Liu family as a thank you gift, which finally moved Su Long and Zhang Xiongwu.

The two sides joined forces to enter Liu's house again, and only then did they solve this ghost disaster, so that the Liu family has been peaceful since then.

After the matter was finished, Liu Wu was quiet for a moment, and he looked at Zhao Fusheng who was deep in thought out of the corner of his eye, and did not dare to interrupt her train of thought.

Zhao Fusheng was thinking about the story told by Liu Wu.

Fan must die, even if it is done, the paper man Zhang also harbors evil intentions.

As a descendant of Zhang Xiongwu, he must know some details that outsiders don't know, but he didn't mention it to Zhao Fusheng.

But it's also human.

The two sides have grievances in front of them, and sooner or later they will end up in an endless end, and it is right to stand in his perspective, half-truths and half-truths in his speech, and conceal key information.

And Liu Wu's grandfather, as one of the participants in the incident that year, from his point of view, happened to make up for Zhao Fusheng a piece of the file, Fan Bi's death, and the lack of information about the case in the paper man's mouth, so that she knew a little more about the ghost she was about to deal with.

The headless ghost mainly searches for the head, causing people to die from ghosts.

At that time, Wenchang Road was the predecessor of the rice alley that now shrouds the ghost domain.

"Forty years of time......" Zhao Fusheng frowned, guessing: What trapped the ghost and made it wander in the same place and refuse to leave?

Now she already knows that the ghosts of the Han Dynasty are different from the ghosts in her cognition.

She knows: Most of the rumored ghosts are related to cause and effect, and unresolved grievances do not enter reincarnation.

But there is no hell or reincarnation in this Han Dynasty, and ghosts seem to have no emotion, no thinking, and only rely on instinct.

It's hard for such a ghost to stay here because of 'obsession', unless something attracts it - similar to the ghost disaster of the Demon Division in Wan'an County, the people in the county government are not dead, and it will never give up this territory.

It can be inferred from this that the ghost of the rice alley may also be because it has not completely completed its rules, so it is still there.

However, all this is just a simple inference based on Zhao Fusheng's rough understanding, and it is not necessarily the standard.

When dealing with ghosts, she needs to be extremely cautious, otherwise it will cost her her life.

She settled down, and then raised her head and said to Liu Wudao:

"Tell me about the reason for the name change of Wenchang Road." She always felt that there was some mystery in this.

Fan Bidie seems to cooperate, but he may not be willing to tell the truth, let alone the paper man, his speech is half-truth, and he still has a hand.

She suffered a loss in the early days of her rebirth, and she didn't know anything about this era, and the backwardness of information made her fall into passivity, so she could only try to say as many words as possible, and then integrate clues according to everyone's words to find out the vitality from them.
