Chapter 54: The Supernatant Bone Marrow, Spiritual Writing, Ghost Law
The concierge joined the army in his early years and achieved military exploits in the army.
After he was discharged from the army and returned to his hometown of Xin'an County, the county government gave him preferential treatment. Not only did he receive a county household registration, but he also arranged for the concierge to work in the Ghosts and Gods Division Office, which provided him with a stable monthly income and no intrusion from demons and ghosts.
In the eyes of the people in the cities and towns, life is pretty good, and many people are envious of it.
For example, the brother-in-law of the concierge, who was also the younger brother of the cook at home, and his family failed to settle down in the city. Instead, they farmed in a village thirty miles away on the eastern outskirts of the county to support their family.
The brother-in-law of the concierge was farming in the countryside, facing the loess with his back to the sky. Life was hard, and sometimes he was easily attracted to evil spirits.
No, something evil happened to his brother-in-law's family - the whole family heard the girl crying at night, and she cried all night long, which scared the whole family and couldn't sleep at night.
His brother-in-law and his family thought it was bad luck that they encountered something dirty at the right time.
Unexpectedly, the "dirty thing" came again the next day, and the girl cried again all night long.
This frightened their family.
It wasn't that the dirty thing happened to happen, but that the dirty thing was targeting their family.
Chu Chen nodded slightly after hearing the concierge's narration.
According to this description, this family indeed seems to have attracted evil spirits.
"Hmm~ It's indeed strange. Did your brother-in-law and his family report it to the Department of Ghosts and Gods?"
The concierge chuckled: "Country people are ignorant. My brother-in-law thought that I was looking after the house of the Master of Ghosts and Gods Department, so he came to me first, and then I came to see you, Master Chu."
Regardless of whether it was the previous life or this other world, as long as it is a human society, the concept of trusting relationships to get things done is deeply ingrained.
Chu Chen smiled and didn't care.
It just so happened that he had no case to handle, and he was happy to have someone come to him for help.
"Okay, first come with me to the Ghosts and Gods Division Yamen to report the case."
"Okay! Thank you, Master Chu!"
The concierge grinned and followed Chu Chen straight to the Yamen of the Ghosts and Gods Division.
As the inspector of imported products, Chu Chen still has quite a reputation in Class B.
Although it was office hours, the clerk on duty in the second shift was quite enthusiastic and kind to the concierge, and the case was filed faster than ordinary people reporting the case.
This case was naturally taken over by Chu Chen.
Zhang Xiucai took a long leave, and Huang Fugui went out with his second uncle, so Deputy Team Leader Liu arranged for him to handle the case alone.
Judging from the description of the case, it is just a ghost disturbing people. It is an extremely small case, and one person is enough.
However, Chu Chen still took the little devil with him.
Before setting off, he even woke up the sleeping little devil and asked him to predict a wave of bad luck.
"No disaster, no disaster, senior brother, don't disturb my sleep. If there is no disaster, I will wake up by myself."
There are signs of a little devil.
Chu Chen felt relieved and followed the concierge to the countryside.
It's not that he has everything, but he is really "money and silk move people's hearts".
In the ghost market, the White Bone Lady's reward for him was a thousand jade coins.
His life is his own, so he naturally has to be more careful.
The concierge drove a carriage and took Chu Chen out of the city, heading straight for Zhoujiazhuang.
When we arrived at Zhoujiazhuang, the sky was slightly dark.
The brother-in-law of the concierge, whose surname is Zhou Shitou, is in his thirties. He looks a little older than his age, has dark skin, is thin, has a simple and honest face, and is a typical farmer. His speech and behavior are a bit reserved.
The aunt of the Zhou family is busy in the kitchen, serving tea and water, and greeting guests.
In addition, the Zhou family also has a fourteen-year-old daughter. Well, she is very beautiful, pure and shy, like a ray of white moonlight, making people pity her.
The little lotus has first appeared, standing tall and graceful.
Although she looks a little green and immature, it can be seen that she is a beautiful woman, and she will definitely have a beautiful and beautiful face in the future.
Out of his appreciation and yearning for beautiful things, Chu Chen couldn't help but take a second look.
That is to say, after taking one more look, Chu Chen discovered a clue.
It seems that the girl is contaminated with a lot of evil spirits.
This phenomenon is a bit abnormal.
Mr. Qingyun, the God of Qingyu Mountain sacrificed his life for only half a month. Logically speaking, ordinary people would have no chance to be contaminated by evil spirits.
Unless there is something really evil about it.
Chu Chen was surprised. It seemed that he would really encounter a case now.
Because he wanted to judge whether there was any evil, Chu Chen's "glance" lingered a little longer, making the young girl from the Zhou family lower her head in shame, not daring to look directly at her.
"Ahem~"
Zhou Shitou coughed and ordered to the girl:
"You damn girl, why don't you go down and help your mother work?"
The Zhou girl lowered her head and left in a hurry.
The concierge smiled and took Chu Chen around Zhou's house to check on the situation.
At the end, Uncle Lang and Uncle asked in unison:
"Master Chu, what can you see?"
"There is indeed an evil spirit in the house. I think an evil spirit is haunting you. When it gets dark, it will come again. I will help you avoid future troubles."
"Shangqing Bone Marrow Spiritual Wen and Ghost Law" says:
If ghosts and gods lurk in people's homes for no reason, causing evil and harm, and those who do not go away will be punished with a hundred rods; one level will be added for five days, and the crime will be punished for two years; those who cannot go away after being ordered to do so will be put to death.
If this evil spirit cooperates, then it is easy to say that it is enough to admit guilt and accept punishment.
If you resist resistance, you will be destroying yourself.
According to the law, kill him.
Chu Chen's calm and steady answer made the two of them feel at ease and they both grinned.
The evening sun sets quickly and night begins to fall.
Sure enough, the low cry of a girl came from outside the house, from far to near.
The sound of crying was carried by the cold wind, making it difficult to hear, hoarse, harsh, and upsetting.
Chu Chen smiled slightly, he didn't know where the lonely ghost appeared from, he was so courageous!
Without further ado, Chu Chen no longer kept secrets of his magic power. With a sweep of his consciousness, he found that there was a ghost wandering in the Zhou family yard.
"Take it!"
Chu Chen ordered calmly.
The dark wind howled in Zhou's courtyard, and the soldiers and horses that were ambushing around Zhou's courtyard all jumped out to capture this ghost that was harassing the people.
Not long after, soldiers and horses in two large jars escorted an unconscious ghost into the main room.
"Ah~"
Uncle concierge, the Zhou family cannot see ghosts with the naked eye, but they can vaguely see "soldiers and horses".
This is just like how Chu Chen could see the soldiers and horses of his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, when he had no cultivation. The "soldiers and horses" practicing the secret method are changing from virtual to real, peeling off yin and turning into yang. Mortals can also vaguely see some of them.
Figure silhouette.
"Master Chu, this is..."
"Don't panic, these are my soldiers and horses escorting the ghosts."
Chu Chen stood up and came to the two soldiers and horses.
The female ghost held in the hands of the two Yin soldiers had her head drooped and her shawl was spread out. Her appearance could not be seen, but she could only vaguely see that she was a little female ghost.
"Master Qi, this little female ghost is too weak. As soon as we surrounded her, the evil spirit knocked her out."
Yin Bing scratched his head naively.
Chu Chen was speechless for a while. It was embarrassing for such a weak ghost to come out to harass people.
"Put her on the ground, I'll cast the food-sprinkling spell to wake it up and find out the cause!"
"Got the order!"
The two Yin soldiers gently laid the female ghost down on the ground.
As soon as the little female ghost lay down and had a clear look at her appearance, Chu Chen was stunned.
Where is this lonely ghost of unknown origin...
She is clearly the daughter of the Zhou family!
At this moment, Chu Chen glanced at the beautiful girl in the corner of the hall.
The girl who bowed her head shyly was no longer shy, but smiled slyly at Chu Chen.
The moonlight was shining, and underneath her elegant appearance, there was an indescribable evil spirit, completely destroying the girl's innocence.
