Chapter 106: The Ghost of the Red Door
Chapter 106
Zheng He's chaotic thoughts were quickly pulled back to reality by Fan Wuxu's words.
Gu Jiansheng also gasped.
In the stunned eyes of everyone, Zheng He fixed his eyes on the gate - under this look, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation: 'Hiss! ’
I saw Zhao Fusheng's hand facing the vermilion door of Sun's mansion, with her palm as the center, and the haze was covered with an invisible cloth, forming a coercion.
I don't know what she did, but I saw that there seemed to be an invisible film torn open on the door panel.
Countless pitch-black handprints appeared in every part of the palace gate.
The brass ring of knocking on the door, the mark of pushing the door, the movement of closing the door smoothly, as if the door had once been a living creature, recorded the fingerprints of everyone who touched it.
"It's—"
Zheng He was a little incredulous:
"Is this a fingerprint?"
"Sun Fu has knocked on the door, opened this door, and left the fingerprints of those who have entered and exited this door?"
This strange scene frightened Zheng He, making him quickly forget about the golden bell that appeared earlier.
His eyes widened, and he looked at Zhao Fusheng incredulously:
"Y-How did you do that-"
The last commander of Wan'an County was Zhao Qiming, and the powerful ghost that Zhao Qiming commanded was the ghost that his father had used to control back then.
As the old man of the Demon Suppression Division, and the two counties are neighbors, Zheng He also paid attention to Zhao Qiming before, and knew that the rule of his ghost was: give first and then take.
Zhao Fusheng himself admitted that she was almost killed by this ghost, but she succeeded in controlling the ghost by mistake - that is to say, she inherited Zhao Qiming's ghost.
But Zhao Qiming's ghost doesn't have this kind of means?
How did she manage it, so that the gate could surface the marks of the past one by one, as if she had the ability to trace the experience of the gate, which is almost like the power of the 'dead to pick up the foot' in folklore, which already belongs to the realm of the gods.
Zheng He was confused at this time, staring at Zhao Fusheng to get an answer.
But Zhao Fusheng didn't have time to pay attention to him.
The moment she saw these two vermilion gates, the idea of using the power of hell to test her guess came to her mind.
After the death of the Zhao family, ghosts were printed on the wooden boards where the Zhao couple lay down, making the two door panels of the Demon Division of the Suppression of Demons a peerless murderous object;
There are traces of the law of ghost killing.
If the people of the Sun Mansion died at the hands of the Zhao couple, then there would definitely be traces of ghosts on the door panel.
Her Hell now traps the Ghost Bell of Spacetime, who has the power to travel through the torrent of time and space, and can trace the target, which is the direction of the Ghost Carriage.
Zhao Fusheng's mind moved, and he cast the Hell Covering Door Panel, the role of the Golden Bell of Time and Space was obviously borrowed, and the marks on the door panel were revealed one by one under the shadow of Hell.
“……”
Zheng He was shocked, Er Fan and Gu Jiansheng looked at the dense handprints in front of them, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak.
Zhao Fusheng did not answer Zheng He's words, she continued.
The shadow of hell covered the entire vermilion gate, and Er Fan, Gu Jiansheng and the others could not see the existence of hell with the naked eye, but Zheng He had already sensed the threat of hell.
And it's not the fingerprints that are the most terrifying.
As the entire gate was shrouded in the first layer of hell, just when everyone thought that Zhao Fusheng would stop there, a strange scene happened again.
I saw that all the floating fingerprints faded away one by one, and a faint gloomy aura emerged from the gate.
The black qi escaped from the middle of the door panel, and Zheng He was instantly shrouded in fear, stirring up cold hairs all over his body.
The black gas emitted gradually became a painting, forming a strange 'figure' about seven feet tall - no, to be precise, this is no longer a 'human figure', but more like a ghost!
"What is this !!?"
Zheng He couldn't bear it anymore and asked in surprise.
The 'figure' couldn't see his face clearly, only to see the black air wrapped in blood, and the aura was so fierce that people felt cold all over their bodies at the sight.
When Er Fan and Gu Jiansheng saw the ghost, they were so shocked that their scalps were numb, the roots of their hair stood up, and the buns were tied up so that their scalps were itchy and painful.
"Ghost—ghost!"
When Gu Jiansheng saw the ghost, his legs were weak.
At this time, he finally understood why Zhao Fusheng scolded him before and asked him not to touch him at will.
Zhao Fusheng didn't speak, and after Hell completely covered the gate, the ghost appeared.
Under the black air, the reflection of the ghost was printed on the door.
The inside and outside of Sun's Mansion were extremely quiet, and the ghosts and black qi were churning, shaking the three envoys who wanted to flee with their heads in their hands.
Zheng Ha was also suppressed by the ghost that suddenly appeared at the beginning.
But he is also a ghost handler, and he quickly recognized that this was not the ghost itself, but a residual image of a ghost, I don't know what power Zhao Fusheng exerted to force the image of the ghost rubbing.
Gu Jiansheng was the most unbearable, and he was immediately paralyzed to the ground with fright at the moment when the ghost appeared.
In contrast, although the twin envoys in Wan'an County were also so frightened that their lips turned white, they finally stood still and did not try to escape.
Zheng He was angry in his heart, feeling that this Gu Jiansheng was embarrassed, and he hated to kick him to death.
"Don't howl."
He lifted his leg and kicked him.
Zheng He's strength is extremely great, if it weren't for Zhao Fusheng being by his side, he would have restrained a few points, and this foot would have kicked Gu Jiansheng to the bone.
But even if he restrained himself, he still screamed in pain.
"It's just an image left by a ghost, not a real ghost."
Under the severe pain, Gu Jiansheng finally woke up from his fear, and when he heard Zheng He's words, his heart was slightly relieved.
But even if the door in front of him was not a real ghost, the image on the door was so terrifying that he didn't dare to look up.
At this time, Gu Jiansheng was full of remorse, and he hated to chop off his hand that pushed the door earlier.
He kicked his legs to get up, but his legs were as soft as noodles.
Zhao Fusheng slowly withdrew her hand, and she looked at the door covered on the other side:
"It seems that the door on the other side doesn't need to be urged, it should be my mother's ghost left on it."
The case has progressed to the present, at least there is no doubt about the identity of the ghost.
The moment Fan Bi saw the ghost, he remembered the door panel in the Demon Suppression Division that day, and nodded silently when he heard Zhao Fusheng say this.
Zheng He didn't dare to speak.
The two ghosts committed crimes in parallel, which was beyond his ability.
He can't handle this ghost case, and he can't deal with two ghosts, so he can only rely on Zhao Fusheng and focus on her everywhere.
"Do you have any eyebrows about this case?" Zheng He adjusted his mentality and asked.
"Twin ghosts, according to the laws of the past case, they are tentatively scheduled to haunt at night." Zhao Fusheng glanced at the gate and slowly calmed the hell again at the cost of 5 merit points.
As Hell recovered, the ghost on the gate gradually disappeared, and the mottled fingerprints disappeared little by little.
The vermilion gate was still the same as before, with dry and irregular blood stains, but everyone remembered the strange scene before, but they didn't dare to look directly at these two gates anymore.
"After the two ghosts commit the crime, the ghost shadow will be rubbed on the door panel, and I speculate that the ghost's killing method is based on the door panel."
When Zheng He heard this, he knew that she was summarizing the rules of the case, and immediately felt a pang in his heart, and hurriedly memorized her words.
"The ghost kills people mainly in one family, and the ghost will be imprinted on the door panel after the killing." Zhao Fusheng remembered the fingerprints on the door, and said:
"When someone touches the gate that has been left behind by the ghost, they will be marked by the ghost, and then the ghost will follow the fingerprint and ask for his life one by one."
From Zhao Fusheng came to Baozhi County, mentioned the ghost case, and arrived at Sun Mansion, at most, it had only been more than an hour of effort, but she had already summed up so many rules for this ghost case that Zheng He was originally helpless.
Zheng He was stunned, and Zhao Fusheng asked him:
"Are the people of Kongyun Temple also dying in the same way?"
"Yes...... Yes, yes. ”
Zheng He listened to her question and hurriedly replied:
The messenger replied, "It's all the same way to die, and it's ...... I was disemboweled...... by a ghost."
"But the same corpse is lying on the door panel?" Zhao Fusheng asked again.
"......" Zheng He's face stiffened, and he glanced at Gu Jiansheng on the ground, unable to answer Zhao Fusheng's question.
The 27 people who died in Kongyun Temple were either monks or poor scholars who placed orders, because they were suspected of dying from ghost disasters, Zheng He avoided them, how dare they go to the scene.
At that time, it was the official errand of Baozhi County who was forced to go to the scene.
When it comes to ghost cases, these ordinary people are afraid and afraid, where they will observe in detail, they can only report a rough report, and the details involved are not clear.
Zheng He was speechless when asked, and said in a low voice:
"I'll go back and let people find out."
"Hmm."
Zhao Fusheng nodded and said:
"Handling ghost cases is at stake, and no details can be sloppy, if you misjudge the laws and characteristics of ghosts, I'm afraid there is no chance to make up for mistakes."
"......" Zheng He showed a disapproving look on his face.
He is now buried in the loess for half his life, and his life is short, neither do ghost cases nor ghost cases, he just wants to survive comfortably for two years, and death is worth it.
He thinks that he has handled three cases, and his existing experience is enough to sit on one side as this commander, although Zhao Fusheng's experience is good, he doesn't want to learn.
But he only dared to think about these words in his heart, and did not dare to say them out loud.
But Zhao Fusheng is like a person, even if Zheng He's expression is indifferent, he has already figured out a thing or two from his attitude of not replying.
She is not angry, everyone has their own fate, if Zheng He can listen to her, if she doesn't listen, after some time, it is best to find a way to swallow Baozhi County into the territory of Wan'an County and kick Zheng He away.
"You go back and let people check, whether the gate of the Kongyun Temple is open, in the past half a month, among the people who died at the hands of the ghosts, have they been to the Kongyun Temple before the ghost case broke out, so they were marked by the ghosts."
Because the evidence was not conclusive, Zhao Fusheng didn't dare to make too many judgments, and he had to wait until Zheng He inquired about the news before he could confirm it.
However, the meaning of her words made Zheng He's heart move:
"What my lord means is that the monks of Kongyun Temple may have been marked by powerful ghosts by coincidence." Later, the Kongyun Temple was slaughtered by the ghosts, "and the gate of the Kongyun Temple was temporarily possessed by the ghosts, so anyone who has touched the gate may be marked by the ghosts." ”
In other words, those who have been to the Sky Cloud Temple are on the list of fierce ghost hunts.
"Not bad."
Zhao Fusheng nodded.
In fact, according to her judgment, the monks of Kongyun Temple were most likely innocent and marked by powerful ghosts.
The ghost was looking for the door panel of the great evil thing, so he accidentally found the gate of the Kongyun Temple, and then the monks in the temple died tragically.
And the gate of the Kongyun Temple is not a great murderous thing possessed by the ghost in front of him, and the ghost left after killing people, but marked the living person who had touched the door from the door panel of the possession, so he started hunting.
Zhao Fusheng added:
"At this point, it doesn't have to be the door of the Empty Cloud Temple. All the people who have experienced ghost disasters and have been hunted by ghosts may be marked by ghosts. ”
She looked at Zheng He with an unusually serious expression:
"And those who have dealt with these deceased people are very likely to be the next target of the ghosts."
Zheng He is not a fool either.
Zhao Fusheng said it so clearly, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
The originally complicated case, after Zhao Fusheng's analysis and sorting, became clear and clear.
Zheng He, who was originally helpless in the face of an unknown ghost case, actually understood the route of killing ghosts at this time.
According to Zhao Fusheng, if Zheng He can sort out the list of the previous deceased in advance, and then list the people who have interacted with them one by one, they can even predict the next move of the ghost in advance, and it is more likely to predict the person who the ghost will kill next!
“……”
When Zheng He thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of excitement and excitement in his heart.
"Zhao Fusheng is so powerful!" He sighed secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Er Fan:
"Where did these two envoys in Wan'an County find such a monster, it seems that they were born to deal with ghost cases."
She is a ghost, but she is not affected by a ghost.
It's clear that it's a powerful ghost who gives first and then takes, but it seems that there is another hidden ghost who can track down the whereabouts of the ghost.
These powers were not enough to shock Zheng He, but with the help of the power of the ghost, it seemed that she did not need to pay a price, and even used it as she wanted, as if the power of the ghost was a treasure to her, inexhaustible, and she did not have to worry about the consequences.
The ghost case that everyone feared fell into her hands, as if it were an insignificant event.
She doesn't seem to be afraid of ghosts, and she looks calm and calm when she mentions ghosts - this makes her seem to be undisturbed by emotions when she handles ghost cases.
"If we sort out such a list, we may be able to determine the next move of the ghost." Zheng He said.
"Yes." Zhao Fusheng nodded.
"Once we've sorted out the list, we can send someone to the homes of the people on the list—"
When Zheng He said this, Gu Jiansheng, who was sitting on the ground, trembled.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zheng He, and whispered:
"My lord," he shouted, drawing Zheng He's attention, and then reminded:
"It's a ghost case."
Ghost cases are different from regular cases!
Powerful ghosts are not afraid of officials, even if they grasp the whereabouts of powerful ghosts and predict the actions of powerful ghosts?
Zheng He, who was originally impressed by Zhao Fusheng's inference, heard Gu Jiansheng's words, like being splashed with a bucket of cold water on his head, and suddenly sobered up:
"yes, you can't send anyone to these people's homes—"
Don't talk about ordinary people, even ghost handlers are fighting for their lives when dealing with ghosts.
When the time comes, I go to the house of the person on the list, if I don't meet a ghost, if I do, I will be served by the pot.
When Zheng He thought of this, he suddenly calmed down a lot.
