Chapter 024: The Three Holy Ways, Ghost Crying School
After hearing the conversation between Grandpa Mai and me, Mai Xiaorou came over and said, "Grandpa, it's probably a little too early for Chen Yu to take over the case now. He can't even adjust his breath smoothly now, let alone perform Taoist techniques.
Well, what if something happens?"
Grandpa Mai said: "Don't worry, as I said just now, we will only take on suitable cases, cases within our control. This can not only train Chen Yu, but also prevent the situation from getting out of control and encountering any danger. This
It’s good for you and Chen Yu.”
I also nodded and said: "Yes, that's it!"
Grandpa Mai and I are both thinking about Mai Xiaorou, we don't want her to take too many risks, but Mai Xiaorou is purely thinking about my safety, she would rather bear everything for me than let me take risks.
Seeing that she couldn't convince Grandpa Mai and I, Mai Xiaorou stopped talking and started serving us rice and dishes. Judging from her expression, she was still reluctant.
After eating, I went to the side to call Zhang Rui. Seeing that I had made up my mind, Mai Xiaorou said nothing more.
The call was quickly connected, and before I could speak, Zhang Rui asked me: "Chen Yu, have you figured it out and want to join the Supernatural Bureau?"
I said: "Yes!"
"Great, where are you? Let's meet at Tangfu Teahouse. I'll explain it to you in detail then." Zhang Rui seemed a little impatient.
I said: "Let's go tonight, we are not in the provincial capital now, we can't go there until night."
Zhang Rui said "Okay" and then asked me a bunch of irrelevant questions. I answered a few simple questions, said I was a little busy here, and hung up the phone.
After notifying Zhang Rui, we didn't stay here longer. We simply packed up and set off on the road back to the provincial capital.
Zhang Rui kept calling me along the way, asking me where I was and when I would arrive, as if he was afraid that I would regret it.
Zhang Rui kept urging us. When we arrived in the provincial capital, we went directly to Tang Fu Tea House. When we got here, we found that Zhang Rui was standing at the door in person, and there were two people standing behind him, Old Man Tang and Shangguan Hong.
After seeing us, Zhang Rui greeted us warmly, and Shangguan Hong and Old Man Tang also nodded politely to us.
Even for me, they no longer have the disdain they had before.
I know that all this is the credit of the young man named Li Guidao, and that they respect me is because of Li Guidao, not because of my own improvement.
Thinking about it this way, I couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
After saying hello to Zhang Rui, we entered the teahouse and went directly to the second floor.
Shangguan Hong brought us a pot of good tea, and Old Man Tang also brought us some dried fruits. They treated us completely like guests.
After that, Shangguan Hong and Old Man Tang left, leaving only Zhang Rui.
This time Zhang Rui did not harass Mai Xiaorou again, but asked me: "Chen Yu, it's great that you can join the North China Branch. Although you are still a beginner in Taoism, I always feel that you will definitely achieve something in the future.
"
Zhang Rui laughed while talking. I didn't know whether he was flattering or sincere.
I said "I'd like to lend you some good words" and then said: "I, Xiaorou, and Grandpa Mai, can we join the Supernatural Bureau at the same time?"
Zhang Rui immediately smiled and said: "Of course, I have seen Miss Xiaorou's magical powers before, and they are very powerful. Naturally, I would like to join our supernatural branch. And the Miss Xiaorou taught by Grandpa Mai will definitely be even more powerful."
I have to say that Zhang Rui never says anything to offend anyone. He seems to have a smiling face no matter who he treats, making people feel very friendly.
However, his eyes were a little deep, which was very inconsistent with the simple smile on his face, so I always felt a little uncomfortable every time I looked at him.
I asked Zhang Rui if he needed to go through any formalities to join the Supernatural Bureau.
Zhang Rui shook his head and said: "No, I just need to report your names, and then I will tell you some contact points of the North China Branch. If you encounter any difficulties in the future and need help, you can ask for help from those contact points.
Of course, you can also call me directly."
After saying that, Zhang Rui took out his mobile phone and sent me a few messages, which included the addresses, contacts and contact numbers of various contact points.
After sending the message, Zhang Rui added: "There are many positions in the Supernatural Branch. You are now at the lowest level. If you perform well, you will have the opportunity to be promoted."
When Zhang Rui said this, he was slightly apologetic, as if he was worried that we would be angry because of our low status.
Grandpa Mai said: "The position doesn't matter, as long as you can take the case."
Zhang Ruidao: "With your current position, I'm afraid you can only receive the simplest cases!"
Grandpa Mai smiled and said: "That's enough!"
Zhang Rui said again: "By the way, Grandpa Mai, Miss Xiaorou, please give me your mobile phone numbers, because the Supernatural Branch will take the initiative to assign tasks under certain circumstances, and then it will need to contact you directly."
Grandpa Mai and Mai Xiaorou also reported their mobile phone numbers respectively.
After chatting briefly for a while, the three of us have officially joined the Supernatural Bureau. However, we are still not very clear about the construction of the Supernatural Bureau. We just know that this organization is bigger than we imagined, and those pieces of information include how many
Ten contact points, branches in different cities and towns.
According to what Zhang Rui said, these contact points are not all there are. There are still some contact points. We will not be informed until our positions in the Supernatural Branch are improved.
Zhang Rui said that the contact points of the Supernatural Branch are divided into six levels: low, medium, high, special, secret and forbidden. At the same time, the cases of the Supernatural Branch are also divided into these six levels accordingly. We can only take some low-level cases now.
case.
When talking about this grading, Zhang Rui said casually: "This grading method did not exist before. It only emerged in the past ten years. By the way, it was Li Guidao, brother Li Dao's master who proposed it.
of."
Speaking of Li Guidao's master, I asked a lot about his identity, and Zhang Rui shook his head and said, "You will know this later, I can't say."
The matter of joining the Paranormal Bureau was almost talked about. Grandpa Mai directly asked Zhang Rui if there were any low-level cases for us to take on.
Zhang Ruidao: "Don't worry, you just joined the Supernatural Branch..."
Grandpa Mai said: "We can't stay idle."
Zhang Rui looked at me, looked at Mai Xiaorou a few more times, then smiled and said, "If you really want to take on the case, I really have a small case on hand that I can give you."
Grandpa Mai asked Zhang Rui to speak directly.
Zhang Ruidao: "This case occurred in a place called Sanshengdao. I will send the specific address to your mobile phone shortly."
The three of us nodded, and Zhang Rui continued: "Sanshengdao is an old village, located deep in the Taihang Mountains. It is the seat of the township government of Sanshengdao Township. There is a Sanshengdao Primary School there. What I want to tell you
It happened in that school."
Mai Xiaorou said in surprise: "There are many children in the school, so shouldn't the yang energy be very strong? Are there still dirty things?"
Zhang Ruidao: "You need to investigate this carefully after you go there. This incident only happened two days ago. We don't have much intelligence information, so it is temporarily classified as a low-level incident!"
I asked what exactly happened.
Zhang Ruidao: "It's like this. A week ago, a female teacher at Sanshengdao Primary School hanged herself in the office. About two days ago, several teachers living in the school heard about the suicide of the female teacher in the office.
There were cries, and it was in the middle of the night. We initially thought it was caused by the ghost of the dead teacher. All you have to do is go there and find a way to send his soul away."
Grandpa Mai nodded and said: "It does not sound difficult."
Zhang Rui said with a smile: "That's right, and based on our past experience, the ghost is at the black shadow level at most. With the conduct of Grandpa Mai and Miss Xiaorou, it is certainly no problem."
They all thought it was simple, but I didn't dare to neglect it, because when it came to Taoism, I basically had a blank slate and I had to treat it with caution.
After everything was discussed, Grandpa Mai asked me to take two days off and then leave for Sansheng Dao Township tomorrow.
Grandpa Mai can't wait to improve my strength. Only when my strength is high can Mai Xiaorou stop more disasters for me.
And I suddenly had a bold idea in my heart. If one day I become really powerful, then can I recall Mai Xiaorou’s heavenly and earthly souls, fill them with seven souls, change their lives, and let them
Its true resurrection!?
Of course, the reason why I think this is because I still know nothing about Taoism, and I have no idea how difficult this process is and how much strength it requires.
If I knew a little better, I would probably think that I am just daydreaming.
The time soon arrived the next morning, and we got on the bus to Sansheng Road early in the morning. Because it was a small place, we had to back up several times along the way.
But we still got there that night.
When we got here, we found the elementary school where the accident happened after a little inquiry.
Before coming here, Zhang Rui gave us a phone call and said that when we get to school, we just need to call the teacher and he will arrange everything for us.
Grandpa Mai dialed the phone, and soon a middle-aged woman's voice asked us who we were. Grandpa Mai directly said that we were the ones dealing with the "Ghost Crying School" incident, and she immediately asked where we were.
Grandpa Mai talked to the woman for a while and then hung up the phone. We waited at the school gate for a while, and a middle-aged woman with glasses and permed hair came to pick us up.
After introducing each other's names, we learned that her name was Ma Yuqin and she was the principal of this primary school.
Because Grandpa Mai was the oldest, Principal Ma kept telling Grandpa Mai what happened here, while Mai Xiaorou and I listened from the side.
I heard from Principal Ma that the situation is even worse now. Not only can you hear inexplicable crying in the middle of the night, but you can even hear inexplicable knocking on the door. There is a timid female teacher who was so frightened that she fell ill and is now still in the township health department.
What about the infusion?
Grandpa Mai nodded, then looked directly at me and said: "Chen Yu, you do this!"
I was dumbfounded, I don’t know anything, why are you here, are you playing with me?! (To be continued)
