CHAPTER XLVI

When Zhao Fusheng heard this, he asked:

"What is the reason?"

刘义真 says:

"I don't know the specific process of the headless ghost killing people, but I heard my grandfather say that the more you control the high-level ghosts, the easier it is to lose control and die, this general was already on the edge of losing control at that time, and the appearance of the headless ghost in disguise made the powerful ghosts on his body lose control in advance and kill him."

After speaking, he paused, and then added casually:

"And the classification of powerful ghosts, in addition to estimating according to their ghost domains and strength, the imperial court will also have other considerations, for example, the reason why the ghost thing controlled by this gold-level general can be judged as a disaster level is because this ghost has a peerless beast in addition to his own strength."

In other words: ghosts make ghosts.

"Ghosts have property, too?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

This statement of hers was a little weird, the corners of Liu Yizhen's mouth twitched twice, and she wanted to refute it, but she felt that she was right, so she had to nod:

"Yes."

"What kind of murder is it?" Zhao Fusheng asked again.

Liu Yizhen replied honestly:

"I don't know if my grandfather said it was a boat or a car. I only know that once caught by this powerful ghost, it is difficult for both humans and ghosts to escape, and all ghosts escape. ”

Zhao Fusheng was a little curious about the ghost things that this former gold-level general commanded the envoy, and when he heard this, he said:

"After the death of the Jin general, the ghost will definitely be resurrected, how to solve it in the end?"

"The court is full of talents, and the matter happened in the imperial capital, so naturally someone will solve it, this powerful ghost who will be resurrected after his death should also be sealed, and the ghost thing may be hidden in the headquarters of the demon division in the imperial capital, and there is a special person to guard it."

Liu Yizhen's answer is equivalent to no.

However, he is not very old, at most in his twenties, and it is reasonable that he does not know the past decades ago.

But what is worth Zhao Fusheng's concern is that when he mentioned this past, he mentioned a message several times: I heard my grandfather say it.

She already had a measure in her heart, and she pursed her lips and smiled:

"Your grandfather knows a lot."

Liu Yizhen's expression remained unchanged, but he took a deep breath.

Zhao Fusheng asked with a smile:

"You know a lot of secrets, your grandfather knows more, your grandfather and grandson have been giving alms one after another, and you know the past of the ghost disaster in the Confucius Temple, who is your grandfather?"

She refocused her attention on Liu Yizhen's ancestors and grandchildren, and said:

"The almsgiving of the Confucius Temple has been going on for forty years, from the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to the daily almsgiving later—"

Zhao Fusheng paused for a moment when he said this.

A feeling of disgust welled up in her heart.

'Charity' was originally a good thing, she first heard about the ghost disaster in the Fan Hutong, from the mouth of the Fan brothers, and then the paper man Zhang also mentioned it, including Liu Wu who later drove her to see her - everyone mentioned the Liu family back then, and everyone praised its benevolence and righteousness.

But who knows that behind the 'generosity' is the bloodstained human life.

The Liu family took money to give alms, and the people who drank the porridge water of the Confucius Temple were destined to die sooner or later at the hands of powerful ghosts, and this kind of kindness became invisible malice, but people were kept in the dark and knew nothing.

From the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to the daily almsgiving later, it means that ghosts kill people frequently.

If you don't get rid of the ghosts in the alley, after the ghosts are promoted to the next level, I don't know how many living beings will be killed.

The Han Dynasty is rampant with ghosts, and human life is like mustard.

When she first heard Fan Bi Die say this, she didn't think so, but now she finally sensed the weight of this sentence.

Zhao Fusheng forcibly endured the disgust in his heart, and said again:

"To be able to support such a long-term 'good deed' shows that the funds required behind it are very expensive-"

"It's half of the Liu family's property." Liu Yizhen saw her yin and yang weirdness, and raised his eyebrows at her with some surprise, and replied to her.

Zhao Fusheng was stunned.

Although she was mentally prepared, Liu Yizhen's words still surprised her:

"Liu Huacheng invited Su Long to join forces with Zhang Xiongwu, at the cost of half of the Liu family, if the other half of the Liu family's property is used as the almsgiving funds for the Confucius Temple, then the Liu family of that year is ......"

"The Liu family was haunted and split up at that time, and the rest of the clan went their separate ways." Liu Yizhen replied calmly.

At such a point, it seems that he no longer hides the truth, and decides to put everything together:

"Before leaving, the head of the family took out the private house he had accumulated and distributed it to his relatives, and the remaining property of the Liu family was all sold.

That being the case, Zhao Fusheng thought about it for a while, and said again:

"Then the one who took over the position of Miaozhu back then was one of Liu Huacheng's heirs?" When she thought of this, she felt that something was wrong.

At the time of the haunting, Liu Huacheng was already sixty years old, the ancients married early, and Liu Huacheng's son was the eldest at that time, and I am afraid that he had grandchildren.

She hurriedly added:

"—or grandson?"

"Nope."

Liu Yizhen finally turned his head and glanced at her meaningfully.

Zhao Fusheng's gaze changed instantly, she thought of a possibility, Liu Yizhen pulled the corners of his mouth, and said:

"The one who stayed was the head of the Liu family at that time, Liu Huacheng."

The young man looked at Zhao Fusheng with a complicated look on his face.

As if she wasn't very surprised, everything seemed to have been guessed by her, and it was really clever.

Liu Huacheng was part of Su Long's mission.

The headless ghost corpse appeared in Wan'an County because of him, and he had the imperial order and could not escape.

And half of the Liu family's property is huge, and the responsibility of the Confucius Temple is very high, so he is not at ease to hand it over to others, so he finally stays and manages this wealth himself.

After all, it is impossible for anyone in this world to see such a huge wealth and not be moved, and if you want to perfectly implement such a plan, only Liu Huacheng himself.

Since then, there is no more court lieutenant right supervisor in the world, and there is no head of the Liu family of the wang family, only an old temple in the Confucius Temple in the Hutong who guards the temple and gives alms.

"At that time, my father was still young, and the uncles were busy running for their lives, so they didn't have time to take care of him."

In fact, the situation at that time was very chaotic, and the younger generations of the Liu family were resentful when they learned that the ghost disaster was caused by Liu Huacheng, but Liu Huacheng was very powerful, and everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

They didn't know Su Long's plan, but when Liu Huacheng scattered all his family wealth to quell the ghost disaster, he resented his father very much, and when it was time to flee for his life, everyone blamed each other and complained, and refused to take away Liu Huacheng's old son.

"My grandfather was forced to take my father with him."

Liu Yizhen was not ready to say too much about his father's past, but hurriedly brought over one sentence:

"But my father was not in good health, so he didn't survive thirty and went, and finally left me and my grandfather to depend on each other."

The truth is revealed.

But Liu Yizhen said a lot, and Zhao Fusheng felt that there were still many doubts in his heart.

In the 206th year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Huacheng had reached the age of sixty, and according to Liu Yizhen, his grandfather died last month, that is to say, Liu Huacheng lived for a hundred years!

This is an unusual age.

If Liu Huacheng could live to be 100 years old, he should have longevity genes, why did his son die before he was thirty?

What's more, even if you live a long life, even if you live to ninety-seven or ninety-eight, it is not uncommon to be one hundred and one years old, why is it just when you are a hundred years old?

Could it be that in the plan that Su Long made back then, what kind of mystery was set up in the Confucius Temple to change Liu Huacheng's life against the sky?

Thinking of this, she crossed Liu Yizhen's side and wanted to step towards the Confucius Temple.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Yizhen's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop her.

His actions made Zhao Fusheng laugh.

She slowly reached out and pushed Liu Yizhen's arm away, and said with a smile:

"Your grandfather didn't come to his funeral after he died, did he? Are there three ghosts hidden in the temple now? ”

"......" Liu Yizhen was speechless, with a look of 'since you know, how dare you go in'.

"I'll go in and have a look." Zhao Fusheng said.

"Not allowed!"

Liu Yizhen, who has always been quite cooperative, was unexpectedly strong at this time, and he looked stern:

"Now, I won't hide it from you, my grandfather did stop in the temple after he died." He looked at Zhao Fusheng, and his tone was incompatible:

"When you go in, you will alarm his old man and bring trouble."

"What misfortune? So seriously? ”

Zhao Fusheng also knew his words.

The headless ghost was able to kill the gold-level general of the emperor when he was just resurrected, although the ghost body was decomposed and demoted afterwards, but after Liu Huacheng's death, the revival of the ghost was able to restrain him, which shows that Liu Huacheng also became an extremely terrifying ghost after his death.

She suddenly remembered the record of Liu Huacheng's life mentioned in the file of the Demon Suppression Division.

At that time, she didn't know what to do, and she was thinking in her heart: It was about the ghost case in the south of the city, why Su Long didn't mention the law of killing ghosts when recording the case, nor did he mention the process of sealing the ghosts, but he mentioned Liu Huacheng's past in detail, and even recorded the events before he was born.

After thinking about it again, I finally understood the painstaking efforts of the former Demon Suppression Commander to leave a warning for future generations.

The dossier of "The Ghost Case in the South of the City" mentions: Liu Huacheng was born extraordinary, and when his mother was pregnant with him, she dreamed frequently, often dreaming that he was holding a strange red book, wandering on the long street, which was very strange.

When Liu Huacheng was born, it was a vision, and the red gas did not disperse, and it was passed on as a beautiful talk by the people of Wan'an County at that time.

If it is Zhao Fusheng, who is watching the dossier for the first time, I am afraid that he will not be interested in the record of this sentence.

Throughout history, any person who will leave some traces in the torrent of time, and later generations will inevitably add pen and ink to his writings, add his own standpoint and opinion, or praise or smear, which determines his future position in history.

In the face of such a legend, Zhao Fusheng has long been surprised.

The impression that the lives of these people have left on the silk will depend on the status of the person who wrote the book for him and the pen in his hand.

When Su Long wrote the dossier, he mentioned Liu Huacheng's past, and Zhao Fusheng initially guessed that it was because Liu Huacheng gave the money.

Although Su Long is a ghost master and a demon suppression commander, his identity is unique, but Liu Huacheng gives too much, maybe Su Long can praise him a few words.

But at this time, combined with today's clues and thinking about this record, Zhao Fusheng realized Su Long's intentions.

But she deliberately pretended to be stupid:

"I don't believe it, I'm going to check for myself-"

"No way!"

Liu Yizhen's complexion changed greatly, his eyes showed murderous intent, and he had the posture to fight her.

This man is a companion of ghosts, but not a man of ghosts.

He dared to make a move with her when he knew that he had controlled the ghost thing, which means that Liu Yizhen may have the certainty - or ability to suppress the ghost master.

But what did he rely on?

Could it be ......

"The Red Book—"

She muttered a pun:

"The book of almsgiving left by your grandfather...... A book of life? ”

Liu Yizhen didn't know how many times her thoughts had turned in her heart at this time, she was smart and reacted quickly, and there were some things to hide from her, so she had to nod when she heard the words:

"Yes."

His expression softened, and his tone was softer:

"Ghosts can also harness murderous creatures, and the book of life you said has become a peerless murderous thing—" He hesitated for a moment before he said:

"And—and with the possibility of growing up, my grandfather must not be disturbed."

Anyway, the matter has already been said, and he simply didn't hide it from Zhao Fusheng:

"Fusheng, once you step into the Confucius Temple, you may be alarmed, and after my grandfather recovers, he will definitely search for a book of life-"

When he said this, he finally couldn't help but show a little headache:

"If you let it get the book of life, I'm afraid that the entire Wan'an County will be shrouded in the ghost domain!"

The ghost domain formed after the revival of the demon of charity is shrouded in the alley of asking for food.

In fact, the rice alley is not small, but in the entire Wan'an County, it is only a corner of the south of the city.

And Liu Yizhen mentioned that if Liu Huacheng is a powerful ghost, the ghost domain can envelop the entire Wan'an County - Zhao Fusheng's face changed greatly, and he immediately shrank his head:

"I can't afford to mess with it! Can't afford to mess with it! ”

She is delicate in her mind but bold and daring, but in the face of Liu Yizhen's words at this time, she also knows that she does not dare to fight with such a big ghost for the time being.

“……”

Liu Yizhen was speechless when he saw her cowardly.

At first, he was really afraid that Zhao Fusheng would be bold and reckless.

After all, the girl in front of her is a little ruffian, as if she is not stingy to death, and she also has a bit of a talent for death.

When there was a lot of noise at the same time when she first entered the rice alley, everyone was afraid of ghosts, and when they cowered in the room during the day and did not dare to appear, she jumped up and down looking for an opportunity;

After the ghost kills someone, everyone hides and trembles, afraid of being seen by the ghost, but she has the audacity to follow the ghost.

All kinds of behaviors are simply indescribable, when she wants to rush to the Confucius Temple, Liu Yizhen is really afraid that she will not know the height of the sky, insist on her own opinions, and cause trouble - after all, her name is recorded in a book, and he can barely understand the feeling of wanting to do something.

However, seeing that she was still sensible at this time, Liu Yi's heart fell to the ground instantly.

It's just that he soon realized that he was being led by Zhao Fusheng emotionally, and he suddenly had a headache.

"Don't you just want to see the ghosts of almsgiving? Or, why don't you stand in the doorway and take a look—"

He was afraid that Zhao Fusheng would not play his cards according to reason, so he took the lead in taking a step back:

"Without the influence of the ghost lamp, you can see where the shrine is when you stand at the door, and it is enshrined in the shrine."

Liu Yizhen's attitude can be regarded as a good sale to Zhao Fusheng in disguise, she nodded with a smile:

"Yizhen, it's good for you to do this."

She said:

"I can't afford to mess with the two big ghosts now, but I always have to find a way to solve the ghost disaster in the alley, whether it is hidden in the Confucius Temple, or whether this place is used as an entrance, I also have to confirm with my own eyes, do you say it-"

"......" She had to sell well when she got cheap, Liu Yizhen couldn't bear it, and finally rolled her eyes.

"Hahaha." Zhao Fusheng laughed out loud.
