"Ten sticks, ten sticks, ten sticks that will make you paralyzed and make you pee and pee!"
After leaving the Yamen, Rong Tianding's face was pale and his expression was full of panic.
He originally wanted to follow Puyun Guanmu Taoist's method of setting up an altar and make some wooden figures to fool him, but the county government actually wanted him to catch ghosts, and someone would check and verify it.
This made Rong Tianding feel less confident. He only felt that all the big wooden sticks from the Yamen would fall on his butt.
He dared to deceive ordinary villagers, but he would not dare to deceive the county government even if Rong Tianding had ten courages.
He didn't have any serious charges to begin with, but if he really wanted to trick the county government with a fake person, Rong Tianding felt that the probability of him being beaten was very high.
"Cousin, if you really get beaten, you can at least fulfill one of your wishes," Zhang Xuezhou comforted.
"Are there any good things?" Rong Tianding asked curiously.
"If you fight like that, I guess you won't need to go to Dongshi to kill pigs for a year and a half, and you can study hard at home with peace of mind!"
"Then I would rather kill pigs every day than get beaten like this!"
Rong Tianding shook his head repeatedly, feeling that he could not accept the life after being beaten.
"Let's go, kill a few pigs and then catch ghosts!"
Hearing that Rong Tianding was willing to kill the pig, Rong Li felt that nothing was difficult in the world except for those who wanted to kill the pig. Rong Tianding finally wanted to kill the pig at this time. She just felt that if the ghost was found and beaten to death as soon as possible, everything would be harmonious and beautiful.
But Rong Li was still worried about how to kill ghosts.
She has never seen a ghost in her life.
"I'll get two buckets of pig blood and send them to Shilipo in a while so that Master Rong can use them when the time comes," Li Erlang said.
"Then you have to hurry up and avoid traveling at night in the dark," Zhu Dan said.
"I'll take two buckets of pig blood and set off," Li Erlang said.
"Then we'll take over the rest!"
After hearing Rong Li's instructions, everyone spoke up and took the initiative to do all the things needed to keep the pig-killing stall running.
"Should we go find Taoist Mu first?" Zhang Xuezhou suggested.
He followed behind, but he felt that they were unreliable in catching ghosts.
Judging from the fact that Rongli never entered the house that night even though she was holding a butcher knife, Rongli does not have the ability to kill ghosts. She can at best make ghosts ward off evil spirits.
Of course, Zhang Xuezhou cannot catch ghosts.
It is reported that most Yin creatures like to go out at night, but he dislikes moving at night the most and cannot participate in such things.
Even Zhang Xuezhou doesn't have the ability to catch ghosts.
Professional work must be done by professional people. Zhang Xuezhou felt that it would be more reliable to ask Mu Taoist for help.
After all, this old Taoist is also a cultivator and has some abilities that ordinary people don't have.
"The old man almost choked to death due to fireworks last time. I'm afraid his legs are not strong enough to walk, so he won't be able to accompany us to catch ghosts," Rong Tianding said.
"He went to Shilipo to perform rituals in the past and may know something about it. It would be right if we ask him first," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Zhou'er is right!"
Rong Li nodded.
She is reckless but not stupid.
Judging from the kindness of having saved Taoist Mu before, this Taoist should not be adding insult to injury.
Accordingly, it might be helpful for them to ask Mu Taoist about it.
Urged by the Yamen, the group had to go back to Dongshi to kill the pigs, and then left the city in a hurry.
"Sir, there is news from the northern governor that Jinchang, under the command of the King of Huainan, is arresting criminals who are crossing the border and has taken some food to satisfy their hunger along the way!"
In the yamen, Master Bao put down his pen for reviewing official documents, and then looked at Master Li who had received the Falcon message.
"So, the Shilipo incident is related to Jinchang?" Master Bao asked.
"Exactly." Master Li nodded and responded: "The governor of the Northern Territory said that the compensation from King Huainan has been received and will be distributed to the affected areas in a few days. We need to report the relevant matters quickly so that we can easily accept the disaster.
payment!"
"Sixteen pigs and three cows were lost in Shilipo overnight. Who was arrested in Jinchang and needed to eat so much food at one time?" Mr. Bao asked suspiciously.
"I don't know what a humble job is!"
Master Li shook his head repeatedly.
The name of Jinchang, the nine-member Yin-Yang family, does not mean that it is famous all over the world, but it is indeed very famous. It is one of the top magicians under the command of the King of Huainan.
The opponent's strength is not inferior to those of the top officials of the imperial court.
Even someone like Mr. Bao who has entered an official position in the imperial court can only hold a candle to him, let alone Master Li.
It was difficult for him to guess who this kind of person arrested and what he did.
Even when Jinchang was acting on their territory, the Huainan Palace even sent compensation, which was considered quite polite.
If the Huainan Palace refuses to pay attention or even make any follow-up notification, there is nothing they can do.
This was not for the sake of the Rongcheng County Magistrate, but for the sake of General Li of the Northern Military Region, so the Huainan Palace gave him some face.
The Huainan Prince's Palace gave them face, so naturally they also wanted others to give them face.
Whatever Jinchang did in the northern border, or what he was involved in, as long as it did not endanger the northern military region, the Huainan Palace obviously hopes that the northern border will not investigate or investigate.
It is difficult to answer Master Bao's words, and Master Li is not able to answer either.
He and Jinchang were like characters from two different worlds. It was impossible to guess the motives of the other's actions. It was also difficult to guess what the other had done and what people with big appetites they had arrested.
"In this case, the disappearance of livestock at Shilipo does not involve the ingestion of vaginal substances and harming people," Master Bao said with a frown.
"That should be the case." Master Li nodded and said, "It seems that we don't need to hire ghost-catching warlocks to go to Shilipo to investigate. This saves a lot of money!"
"Since there are no ghosts in Shilipo, why did Wang Fu'an die?"
Master Bao picked up the pen stained with ink.
When the facts and speculation don't match up, a murder case clearly stands out.
"Order Li Shuang to go to Longmen Village, Shilipo, with a knife to investigate. If you find any clues, report them in time," Master Bao said.
"Here!"
Master Li agreed and quickly stepped back.
"hateful!"
Master Bao stared at the bamboo slip for several seconds.
After a while, he wrote the word "Jinchang" under an official document, then drew a circle and made a cross.
After struggling for a long time, preparing various things to catch ghosts, Mr. Bao did not expect that it was a false alarm.
This made the things he had been busying with for the past ten days useless.
Of course he doesn't like the appearance of evil things in the territory under his jurisdiction.
But he doesn't like this useless busyness even more.
"hateful!"
Master Bao said "hateful" twice.
He couldn't tell for a moment whether this abomination was aimed at Jinchang or Jinchang's master, King Huainan.
These big shots have no place in the eyes of small officials like them, and they don't care whether they will be affected.
But in the end it was them who cleaned up the mess.
Whether there are ghosts in Shilipo does not depend on what the government says and the people believe it.
This is not something he can do in a few words.
Rumors of the haunting spread widely, and people were even more panicked after Wang Fuan's death. This matter needed to be resolved as soon as possible.
Master Bao's eyes wandered, and when he focused on the relevant figures to solve the problem on Mu Taoist, who had dealt with the cow ghost and snake god incident in the past, he suddenly remembered that this Taoist had been caught in a fire a few days ago and was almost burned to death. There was a high probability that he would not be able to do anything.
This forced him to consider Rong Tianding and others who were selling fake paintings in Chengdu. This chapter has been completed!
