"It was a cat, a black cat. It killed all our people and then released those ghosts." The evil cultivator said with fear.
"A black cat?" The voice sounded in his head again.
"Tell me what kind of black cat it is?"
Hearing this, the evil cultivator knelt on the ground respectfully, and then described the situation he saw on the surveillance camera to the being.
"It's true listening, it's true listening!"
There was a hint of surprise in the divine beast's tone when he heard this, but after a moment he felt a little happy.
"It turns out it's that guy. He's not in the underworld, so why did he come to the earth? Haha, he actually dares to steal my things. He's just looking for death!"
"Since you came to the earth and robbed my things, don't blame me for being rude. Swallowing you is much better than swallowing those ghosts!"
As the sound fell, another vibration came from the dark cave, as if some huge beast turned over inside.
After a while, calm returned to the cave again, and there was no more movement.
"My lord, my lord?"
The evil cultivator who had been kneeling outside tried to call the hole twice, but he got no response at all.
He waited for a moment and saw that there was still no movement inside, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I don't know why that existence ignored me, it also shows that I will not be in danger for the time being.
He bowed respectfully to the entrance of the cave, and then carefully stepped back.
At this time, a strange animal was standing in front of the bamboo buildings that were massacred by Du Ting.
The animal looked like a tiger, but it had tusks as long as a wild boar in its mouth. The weirdest thing was that its face was not much different from a human's.
This weird monster looked at the bamboo building in front of it, then took two deep breaths, and a glimmer of light flashed in its eyes.
"As expected, I listened carefully. You have indeed come to the human world."
After it finished speaking, it stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, then looked at the direction in which Di Ting disappeared, jumped up, and streaked through the air like a meteor.
Early the next morning, the old man invited a white-collar team to go to that house.
I also went to the funeral when I had nothing to do.
I have to say that the veteran is still very good at this kind of thing.
There were monks, Taoist priests, and a band, and the place was lively with gongs and drums.
These people were all invited by veterans who spent a lot of money, and the veterans helped take care of the entire funeral.
The woman and her mother-in-law just sat on the futon, and they didn't need to worry about other things at all. The old man took care of them all.
The funeral was very prosperous. At noon, the flowing water feast started, and then in the evening there were rituals performed by monks and Taoists. You sang and I came on stage. The funeral was very formal.
The woman and her mother-in-law had red eyes and thanked us countless times. Now they are orphans and widowed. Without our help, they would not be able to support the funeral, so they sincerely thank us.
I said a few polite words, then I found a secluded corner in the yard and sat down alone, lit a cigarette and smoked.
"Meow!"
A cat meowed behind me. I looked back and saw Di Ting walking over in the darkness, then jumped onto a stool and squatted next to me.
Looking at Di Ting, I smiled softly. I was not worried at all about whether Di Ting could complete the task.
As long as the ghost is still in the world, Ting Ting will definitely be able to find it.
After all, it is also a mythical beast from ancient times. Although it can only be regarded as a second or third level existence, there are not many people in this world who can defeat it.
This time I just want to retrieve the man's ghost, it should be easy to do.
Di Ting, who was sitting next to me, opened his mouth wide. The next moment, a ghostly sound came out of his mouth, and then he stood in front of us.
I looked at the ghost, nodded gently, and then said to him: "Hello."
Of course I am familiar with the man, he is the owner of today’s funeral.
He turned his head, looked around, then turned to me and said, "Is this my home?"
I nodded, then pointed to the front and said to him: "This is your funeral. I think your mother and wife are too pitiful, so I helped organize this funeral. I wonder if you are satisfied?"
The man looked at me with a somewhat surprised expression on his face, and then asked me doubtfully: "We don't seem to know each other, right?"
I smiled at him and then said: "Don't get me wrong, I just think you are a hero. A hero should not die so shabby, that's why you do this. There is your mother and wife there. Do you want to follow me?"
Whatever they say, I have a way to let them see you."
It is not in line with the rules of the underworld to let the dead ghosts say goodbye to their relatives, but I am willing to break this rule for him.
The man was stunned for a moment, and there was a trace of hesitation on his face, but in the end he shook his head and said, "No, I'll just take a look here. Can you give me a cigarette?"
I nodded, gave him a cigarette with a smile, and then helped him light it.
"Why don't you say goodbye to them? This kind of thing is not difficult for me to do." I asked him with some doubts.
After hearing my words, the man smiled bitterly, then took a puff of cigarette and said, "It's not necessary. I'm already dead and I can't live again. What's the point of letting them see each other again? It will only make them more sad."
That’s all.”
When I heard what he said, I didn't say anything, I just took a long puff of cigarette.
What he said makes sense. Now both his mother and wife have accepted the fact that he died, and the most painful time has passed.
If they are allowed to see men again now and then experience the pain of separation again, that would not be a good thing. It would be like opening up their unhealed scars again and adding salt to them.
It doesn't matter if they don't see each other, maybe as time goes by, the pain in their hearts will slowly fade away.
"Thank you for helping me with my funeral." The man turned to look at me and said.
This sounds a little awkward, because I have received many kinds of thanks, but this is the first time I have been thanked by these people during a funeral.
"You're welcome, you deserve this." I smiled and nodded to him.
"You can see me and bring my soul here, you must be no ordinary person, right?" he asked me.
I didn't hide anything from him and said directly: "I am from the underworld, the head catcher of the underworld."
Hearing what I said, he suddenly understood, then nodded and smiled bitterly.
"I didn't believe in these things before, and I never thought that one day I would become a ghost."
"By the way, how did you die, and why was your ghost controlled by someone?" I turned to him and asked.
"I am an undercover agent who has been undercover for three years under a drug lord named Yajiu. Over the past three years, I have gradually gained his trust. However, my identity was exposed a few days ago and I was locked up.
As you know, those guys are not human anymore. I was tortured by them for three days and three nights, and then an old man inserted a needle in my forehead, and then my soul left my body and he locked me up."
The man paused when he said this, and then said: "That old man should be a wizard-like existence. I am not the only ghost he imprisoned, but there are more than ten."
Hearing this, I nodded and then looked to the side.
"Meow meow!"
Diting raised her head and called me twice, and I understood what she meant.
It told me that all those guys had been killed by it, and even their souls had been torn into pieces.
It's just that when he rescued these ghosts, he didn't see the wizard.
I was a little curious about the origin of that wizard, but he was far away from the border and it was almost impossible for me to see him, so I had to give up.
"It's time to hit the road, do you have any other wishes?" I took the last puff of my cigarette, threw the cigarette butt to the ground, and then asked the man.
He smiled, knowing that his time had come and he was about to leave this world.
"I don't have any more wishes. Since I'm dead, I can't do anything to help them. I just hope that they will suffer less in the future." The man sighed softly and said.
"Don't worry, I will take care of your family." I said to him.
"Thank you, Master Catcher. In this case, there is nothing I can't let go of." He said to me with a smile.
Hearing his words, I waved my hand and summoned the gate to the underworld.
"Go on your journey with peace of mind. You will definitely have a good birth in your next life." I waved to him.
"Sorry to trouble you." He stood up with a smile and walked towards the gate of the underworld, walking calmly and calmly without any hesitation.
He is a policeman and has been undercover in that place for so many years. His psychological quality is simply not comparable to that of ordinary people.
He had already taken things like life and death lightly, so he walked so calmly at this time.
Seeing that he was about to enter the gate of the underworld, I couldn't help but sigh.
"what happened?"
Just when I was about to send him away to take back the gate to the underworld, something strange happened.
He walked to the door, but his ghost was not sucked in by the door to the underworld. The door was like transparent air in front of him, and he passed through it directly.
This made me widen my eyes and look puzzled.
The Gate of the Underworld specializes in absorbing ghosts. This is the first time I have encountered this situation.
"Um...please try again." I said to him with some embarrassment.
As a head catcher of the underworld, I am actually unable to transcend the underworld. This is a sign of poor professionalism, which is very embarrassing for me.
So I readjusted the position of the gate of the underworld and signaled him to come again.
The man smiled and nodded to me, then walked over again.
This time something strange happened again. His body was still not sucked in by the underworld, but passed directly through.
When I saw this scene, I was stunned. I thought to myself, what the hell is going on? Could it be that the gate to the underworld has failed?
