Chapter 126: Departure for the Ghost Tomb

Chapter 126

Zhao Fusheng glanced at Pang Zhixian, his eyelids were swollen, his eyes were wrapped in tears, his eyes were like goldfish bubbles, and his face was full of expectation.

She shook her head:

"I can only deal with the ghost disaster, and I can't guarantee that I will be able to save your wife."

This time the ghost killing was very ferocious, and at this time, Yu Weide, who was lying on the ground, was out of less qi and more in qi.

'Bell-'

The chisel was still ringing, and with each sound, his chest thumped upward.

The seal of the ghost tomb should not have been completely destroyed, and the power of the ghost has been suppressed by the higher-grade ghosts, so the strength of killing people has not been fully exerted, so Yu Weide can persist until now.

But the power between the ghosts and humans is not equal, and if it drags on any longer, the ghosts will definitely drill through Vader's chest.

I don't know what will happen in Vader's body by then—but Zhao Fusheng is sure that the old squire's life will not be saved.

"Let's go! Go to the Ghost Tomb immediately. ”

Saving people is like fighting a fire, time is pressing, Zhao Fusheng didn't dare to stop, immediately got up, and motioned for Fan Bi to die and go with him.

Fan Bi was afraid in his heart, but he had a dislike with Zhao Fusheng, so he didn't dare to refuse at this time, and after hesitating for a moment, he immediately stood up.

He turned his head and shouted:

"Lao Zhang is also here."

“……”

Zhang Chuanshi wants to beat people again.

This kid has a grudge against him today, and he is not usually called for good things, but today's dealings with ghosts have been done in two rounds.

"I ......"

Zhang Chuanshi racked his brains and wanted to refuse, Fan Bisheng looked at Zhao Fusheng:

"We just returned to Wan'an County, and we are going to go to the Ghost Tomb, and we have to figure out many things."

And this trip to Baozhi County Zhang Chuanshi escaped, he stayed in Wan'an County, and he knew best about the ghost disaster that broke out in the ghost tomb.

"Lao Zhang all the way."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

In fact, Fan Bi didn't speak, she also had to find Zhang Chuanshi to accompany her—the Demon Suppression Division has too few available manpower now, and there are only a few back and forth.

"I-"

Zhang Chuanshi was about to howl, but met Zhao Fusheng's cold gaze.

She usually speaks softly, but she is determined, and once she decides, there is no room for change.

I had suffered losses at her hands before, but the two of them had handled ghost cases together and escaped death together on the trip to Kotou Village, so they were presumptuous to test her tolerance.

As soon as he saw Zhao Fusheng's eyes at this time, Zhang Chuanshi knew that it was useless for him to make trouble, and at such a critical moment, once the trouble continued and time was delayed, it was very likely to anger her.

Heroes don't suffer immediate losses.

Zhang Chuanshi realized this, and immediately rolled over and sat up, kicking his legs and standing up:

"I'm walking with adults."

"I'm going too—"

Seeing this scene, Pang Zhixian also hurriedly shouted: "I can explain the details of what happened in the past two nights for the adults." ”

Zhao Fusheng nodded:

"Let's go."

She had just returned from Baozhi County, and the carriage had not yet been untied, and it happened to stop outside the gate of the Demon Suppression Division at this time.

By this time it was already dark.

Zhao Fusheng looked at the officials and squires who looked anxious, and gently ordered:

"You can stay in the Demon Suppression Division and wait for my news, and you don't have to go with me."

Everyone was still worried that she forced everyone to accompany her, and when they heard her say this, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said:

"Thank you, sir."

The master was a little worried about the safety of Pang Zhi County, and he also wanted to go along, Pang Zhi County waved his hand: "You go back to the mansion immediately, and take care of Mrs. for me——"

Although the ghosts want to kill people, ordinary people can't take care of them at all, but now, that's all the master can do.

"Yes."

The master answered.

Zhao Fusheng instructed the handyman to send tea and snacks, and ordered Fan Wusu to guard the Demon Suppression Division.

She led Fan Bi Death, Zhang Chuanshi and Pang Zhi County out of the gate, Fan Wusu looked at his brother and stopped, Fan Bi Death only said: "Listen to the orders of the adults, take a good look at the Demon Suppression Division, and don't let the adults' gold be lost." ”

Fan Wuxu endured the panic, nodded, and looked at his brother:

"You must come back."

"Yes."

Fan Bi Death nodded.

"What are you doing with such life and death?"

Zhao Fusheng sighed:

"I am still somewhat sure that this case will be resolved."

Fan Bi died waiting for her words.

As soon as she finished speaking, not only Fan Bi died, but even Zhang Chuanshi's eyes lit up suddenly, swept away the heavy steps before, jumped into the carriage like a monkey, and beckoned to her:

"Your Excellency, come up."

“……”

Zhao Fusheng glanced at him speechlessly, and before getting into the carriage, she turned her head to look in the direction of the Demon Suppression Division behind her.

It was dark, and two lanterns had been hung on the left and right of the gate of the Demon Suppression Division.

It's just that the lantern is surrounded by a dense layer of water droplets, and the fire inside is suppressed, making the fire pitifully small, almost barely illuminating a little light in front of the gate.

The plaque above the gate was hidden in the darkness at this time, and the three big characters of 'Demon Suppression Division', which were originally barely legible, had been blocked by the black qi and could hardly be seen clearly.

Her eyes flashed, and she got into the carriage.

As soon as Zhao Fusheng got into the car, Fan Bidie and Pang Zhixian followed to get into the car.

The driver who drove the car was a little scared, and Zhao Fusheng said:

"Don't be afraid, just send us to the cemetery in the south of the city and put us down half a mile."

Fan must die and stop talking.

He seemed to have understood Zhao Fusheng's temper, and didn't say much, Zhang Chuanshi said:

"Why didn't you just let him drive the car into the ghost tomb?" He clasped his hands to his chest, a little puzzled:

"There are not many of us, we always have to look for ghosts, and someone needs to find the way then."

Pang Zhixian nodded.

The coachman was trembling with fright, but he didn't dare to speak out in front of the trio of Pang Zhixian and the Demon Suppression Division.

Zhao Fusheng was not angry, she just glanced at Zhang Chuanshi deeply and reminded him:

"We're the ones from the Demon Suppressor."

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Chuanshi was a little puzzled:

"He's also from the Demon Suppression Division."

Zhao Fusheng simply said bluntly:

"We are the commanders, the envoys, the people who handle ghost cases, they are just handymen, responsible for driving cars and doing chores."

"It can be that Zhao Qiming did this before, regardless of these, whoever can use the Demon Suppression Division will go." Zhang Chuanshi gently scratched his scabbed face:

"After all, someone has to die."

“……”

There was a moment of silence in the car.

Zhao Fusheng glanced at Pang Zhixian and Fan Bidying, the two of them did not say anything, whether it was the three people of the Demon Suppression Division, or the coachman himself who was mentioned by Zhang Chuanshi, they all seemed to acquiesce to Zhang Chuanshi's statement, and there was no posture to refute.

"But that's not right."

Zhao Fusheng shook his head:

"Everyone has their own responsibilities, whether it is the court or the county government, they should all perform their duties."

Zhang Chuanshi still didn't understand, so Zhao Fusheng said:

"I don't want to break the rules unless I have to." After speaking, she took a deep look at Zhang Chuanshi:

"It's like when I deal with ghost cases, I won't just use you to send you to death."

She instantly persuaded Zhang Chuanshi with one sentence.

Fan Bideath and Zhang Chuanshi glanced at each other, and both of them had a look of horror in their eyes.

In the Han Dynasty, when ghosts and disasters were rampant, and etiquette and rules collapsed, Zhao Fusheng seemed to be deliberately restraining herself with a kind of rules she had set for herself.

If there is no such rule, according to Zhang Chuanshi, when it is dangerous to handle ghost cases, she should use the order as a consumable.

But for more than a month, she has personally participated in every ghost case, and she has not faked her hands to others.

And among the envoys registered in the county government, except for one Liu Yizhen, the other three people have all handled cases with her, but none of them died!

This is an unprecedented miracle in the Demon Suppression Division.

Now she sticks to the bottom line, but Zhang Chuanshi is persuading her to break the law.

After the law is messed up, except for the unlucky Demon Suppression Division handyman who was the first to be unlucky, none of these people will be much better in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chuanshi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly praised:

"My lord is wise, but I am stupid."

Zhao Fusheng looked at him with a smile, he was a little uncomfortable, he lost his sleek appearance before, and he didn't dare to look at her.

She smiled, and did not say anything more on the subject, but instructed the coachman:

"Let's go."

With her previous attitude support, she greatly calmed the coachman's uneasy and nervous mood, and was grateful to Zhao Fusheng, and vowed in her heart to repay the adult.

Therefore, as soon as her voice fell, the coachman nodded, and the carriage started and galloped south of the city.

As soon as the vehicle moved, Zhao Fusheng immediately asked Zhang Chuanshi:

"Lao Zhang, where have you lived these two days?"

Zhang Chuanshi was still in a daze, and suddenly heard her call her name, and hurriedly cleaned up his complicated feelings, and replied:

"My lord, after you left with Xiao Fan, I saw that it was getting dark very quickly that afternoon, and I realized that something was wrong, so I moved into the Demon Suppression Division overnight."

Zhao Fusheng just returned from Baozhi County, and she didn't know a lot about Wan'an County.

Zhang Chuanshi is usually muddy, and he also knows the seriousness of the matter, so he hurriedly said:

"That night, I did hear a faint tapping sound, but I couldn't hear it very clearly, and although I felt annoyed, I could sleep."

In other words, he is different from Yu Weide, Pang Zhixian and others who were tortured all night.

When Zhao Fusheng heard this, he dared to be sure that there was something hidden in the Demon Suppression Division.

The existence of the Demon Suppression Division can isolate the mark of the ghost to a certain extent, this is not her random speculation, in fact, she has already guessed this when Baozhi County and Zheng He were talking on the painting boat.

Zheng He had known about the existence of the ghost carriage for a long time, but he had never been marked by the ghost carriage before.

And he mentioned one point: The people who died after the revival of the ghosts during the service in the Demon Suppression Division will not affect the people of the Sifu Yamen.

Zheng He is very sure of this.

His words were conclusive, and he even had a faint posture of arguing with Zhao Fusheng at that time.

It wasn't until Zhao Fusheng said that he had been marked by the ghost carriage that he was like a deflated ball.

Zheng He dared to be so sure that he must have relied on him—at least as far as he knew, the imperial court should not have had similar problems for decades.

And this situation is contrary to the law of ghosts.

The murder law of the ghost carriage: when you hear about it and mention it, you will be marked, and then your name will be recorded in the ghost book, and the ghost will drive the person away.

However, the Demon Suppression Division can reverse this law: even if the people in the division know about the existence of the ghost car, and mention and talk about it with others, they will not be taken away by the ghost car.

If something is abnormal, it is a demon.

Zhao Fusheng thought of a possibility.

According to Fan's statement that he must die, the law of killing ghosts cannot be forcibly reversed, but with the power of higher-level ghosts, he can suppress low-level ghosts.

“……”

Only when the two sides are not equal in rank, they can achieve the mark of suppressing and shielding the law of ghosts.

But the level of the ghost carriage has reached the level above the disaster level, what is higher than the existence of the ghost car, which can suppress the ghost car and protect the personnel of the Demon Suppression Division from being marked by the law of ghosts?

Zhao Fusheng's mind came up with the plaque hanging in front of the yamen of the local Demon Suppression Mansion.

Zhang Chuanshi is related to the paper man Zhang.

On the same day, there was an accident in the town demon division of Wan'an County, and everyone else moved away, so Zhang Chuanshi did not leave.

Later, Fan Bi died that the reason why he stayed was because he wanted to do a coffin business, and the Demon Suppression Division owed him a lot of silver, so he refused to leave.

Backed by the paper man Zhang, it is not difficult for Zhang Chuanshi to make money, and the reason why he stays must have a plan.

Zhang Chuanshi was afraid of the paper man Zhang and refused to say more to her.

But he didn't say it, Zhao Fusheng even guessed and thought of the answer.

She thought of the plaque hanging from the gate of the Demon Suppressor.

The Demon Suppression Divisions of various state capitals in the imperial court should have hung such a signboard, and this signboard in Wan'an County is sometimes clean, sometimes it seems to be dusty.

This is naturally not really dusty, presumably related to the situation of a county's ghost disaster.

If the local ghost case disappears and the people are not affected by the ghost disaster, this signboard should be exceptionally clean, otherwise it will be fascinated by the evil spirit.

Zhao Fusheng suspected that this signboard was also a kind of murderous thing, similar to the existence of ghost coffins and ghost door panels.

The imperial court should have obtained a peerless murderous object, and I don't know what means were used, it was dismantled, and then transported to all parts of the country and hung above the local demon suppression department's mansion.

This kind of fierce thing should have a certain strength to resist the ghosts, and it can protect the people in the Demon Suppression Division from the influence of the ghosts to a certain extent - and this is also the reason why Zheng He heard and mentioned the ghost car in his early years, but he was not marked.

And the reason why Zhao Fusheng was marked by the ghost car because he heard the ghost car is very likely to be tarnished with the signboard of the Demon Suppression Division, and the power is suppressed, so it has lost a certain role It is affected.

Zhang Chuanshi immediately moved into the Demon Suppression Division Mansion after the ghost disaster in Wan'an County this time, so compared with Pang Zhixian and others, he was protected by the power of this plaque two nights ago, and he didn't hear the percussion sound very clearly.

This is also the reason why when Zhao Fusheng returned, he found that this plaque had become a little gray, and the handwriting was almost blocked by the haze and could not be seen clearly.

However, this is all Zhao Fusheng's speculation, as for whether it is true or false, solve this ghost case, and then go back to the Demon Suppression Division to see clearly.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fusheng looked at Pang Zhi County again:

"You mentioned the ghost tomb earlier, how did you determine the location of the ghost?"

Pang Zhixian's expression was haggard, and when he heard Zhao Fusheng's question, he beat his spirit:

"I didn't know it yesterday, and it wasn't until this morning that someone inadvertently mentioned that the fog in the west of the city had not dispersed by midnight (around ten o'clock)."

Wan'an County is either surrounded by mountains, or it is foggy in the morning at this time, and it disappears as soon as the day dawns.

Recently, the sky has been getting brighter and brighter, but it is already getting brighter at the beginning of the day, and even if there is fog, it should disappear.

At that time, the person who spoke was a messenger in the house, and Pang Zhixian felt that something was wrong when he heard it.

When it comes to ghost cases, he pays more attention than others.

Immediately, I thought of the ghost tomb in the west of the city, and it had to be branded by the general-level figures of the Demon Suppression Division every year.

In the middle of August last year, the imperial court sent someone to make a brand for the last time, and according to the rules of previous years, the imperial court should have sent someone at the end of July this year, but Wan'an County is now in a special situation, so it has lost this protection.

It's August now, and the brand that the ghost tomb laid down last year should be gradually losing its effect.

Thinking of this, Pang Zhixian was not good at that time.
