As Old Man Li told the story, what happened reappeared before their eyes.
The owner of that big house is Li Zonghan, the most outstanding young man in Lijia Village. His parents died early and he worked hard outside. He learned some boxing and kicking skills and traveled with the caravans. He worked hard to build a family business in his thirties.
.
His wife was not a local, but he accidentally rescued her from a bandit. After they got married, they built a big house in Lijia Village and lived happily for several years.
Until a few days ago, Li Zonghan was killed in a fight with others while doing business, and the family's sky collapsed.
Killing people to death is a local bad habit that has existed since ancient times, but no one expected that the people in Lijia Village would do it so cruelly and cruelly, almost forcing people to die.
Old Man Li scolded angrily: "Although Zong Han has lost his parents a long time ago, he has a kind-hearted character. After becoming rich, he will help anyone who has any difficulties.
But on the surface, those idiots were very grateful, but secretly they were jealous of Zong Han, calling him a white-eyed wolf. After making money, he didn't build an ancestral hall for the village, but built a big house for himself.
Yesterday I wanted to stop him, but the gang scolded me and ran away. I wanted to go to the county seat to find the county magistrate to make the decision, but I didn't expect that such a thing would happen today!
I say they should be killed! Well done!"
At this point, the old man Li suddenly cried loudly: "It's pity that my daughter-in-law and grandson are also in there!
My son joined the army in Western Xinjiang and died on the battlefield in his early years, leaving behind the old man, me and my orphans and widowed mother.
Old man, I am over seventy, and I am determined not to go to see the King of Hell, just because I am afraid that if I die, their orphans and widowed mothers will be bullied by these bastards!"
At this time, Liu Yingying said: "Don't cry yet. Does your wife have a mole on the left cheek? The child is about twelve or three years old?"
Old Man Li nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it's them! Are they still alive?"
Liu Yingying nodded and said: "There are still more than thirty people alive in Lijia Village, and they are all gathered in the ancestral hall.
According to what you said, the ghost should be Li Zonghan's wife, and she should still retain part of her consciousness.
Those people in the ancestral hall should have never bullied her. Once a ghost comes close to the ancestral hall, they will immediately turn around. Humanity suppresses ghostly nature.
But I don't know how long she can persist. Even if she can persist, there is no food in the ancestral hall. After a long time, she will starve to death."
Liu Yingying turned her eyes to Gu Cheng: "If you can't solve this matter, you'd better go to your boss."
Gu Cheng sighed and said: "It's useless. Mr. Cui Zijie went to Lin'an City, where the headquarters of Jingyesi in Donglin County is located. It's hundreds of miles away from here. It would take several days to get there by horseback. By the time he comes back, he's already gone."
That's too late."
What happened in Lijia Village made everyone present feel heavy, including Jingyesi Xuanjiawei, who suppressed numerous demons and ghosts.
In the past, their attitude towards ghosts was to suppress and exterminate them, but this time, they actually felt a little sympathy for the ghost.
Just like what old man Li said, kill well.
But there are more than thirty people in Lijia Village, and they are innocent.
Not only did they not bully each other, they even helped her.
Liu Yingying said at this time: "But there is one more thing that is a bit strange.
Although that woman can practice the art of blood sacrifice to attract ghosts, she is just an ordinary person. She only sacrifices her own blood and then uses her powerful resentment to attract ghosts.
This kind of ghost is based on resentment. When the person dies, the resentment will naturally dissipate.
She has almost killed all the people in Lijia Village who had bullied her, so why hasn’t her resentment dissipated?"
Gu Cheng looked at Old Man Li fiercely: "Just now you said that her husband was killed during a fight? Who killed him?"
Old Man Li hesitated and said: "I heard that there is a disciple of a sect named Du Ziyang. What is his name like Xuanzong?"
"Daoxuanzong?"
Old Man Li slapped his thigh and said, "This is Daoxuanzong!
The people in the caravan said that it seemed that Du Ziyang wanted to forcefully buy something from their caravan, but the money given was too little.
The boy Zong Han was serious about his work, and no one else stood up. As the leader of the caravan guard, he got into an argument with Du Ziyang. He seemed to have punched the other person, but he was burned alive by the other party using evil methods!
And I also secretly overheard other people's conversations with the village chief, and some people felt that the village chief went a little too far.
This kind of thing happened in the past, but it still left a few acres of land for people and a way to survive.
But this time the village chief said that it was Du Ziyang who asked him to do this, and even the government did not dare to take care of those sects."
Upon hearing that this matter also involved Daoxuanzong, everyone present fell silent.
Zhao Jingming walked to Gu Cheng and whispered: "Sir... Gu, in fact, we can take care of this matter, but we can also ignore it.
Although the incident happened within the territory of our Luo County, it involves the Daoxuan Sect of Heyang Prefecture, which is not within the jurisdiction of our Luo County. Even if Commander Cui Zijie comes back, he will not blame you.
Daoxuan Sect is not one of those underground gangs in Luo County, but a serious practicing sect.
The Daoxuan Sect elder Zhong Lin we met last time was just one of several Daoxuan Sect elders."
At this time, Gu Cheng suddenly chuckled and let out a long sigh:
"Remember the hungry ghost we killed the first time we worked together?
The seventh-level resentful ghost only killed four people, but how many people died today?
What happened today is better said to be a disaster than a ghost disaster.
Master Meng Hantang once told me that ghosts can be evil, but human hearts cannot be evil.
Because ghosts have no humanity, but we have humanity.
But today I discovered that the human heart can be more evil than demons.
You are right, you can either manage or ignore this matter.
I’m not a person who likes to meddle in other people’s business, but I want to meddle in today’s matter.”
Hearing what Gu Cheng said, Zhao Jingming just stepped back and said nothing more.
He just said everything he needed to say, but in fact he was just as angry in his heart.
Practitioners and ordinary people actually exist in two worlds.
As a practitioner, killing ordinary people indiscriminately is a very cheap thing.
In the end, Du Ziyang didn't feel relieved after killing someone, but he actually forced his widow to this point. What kind of hatred was there?
It's just shabby!
Old Man Li over there doesn't know what the world of cultivation is, and he doesn't even know what the sect represents.
In his eyes, the sect and the government, just like those rich masters, are existences that he cannot afford to offend.
But he could tell that Daoxuanzong seemed to be very powerful, so powerful that even the Yamen couldn't do anything about it.
He knelt down violently in front of Gu Cheng and cried loudly: "Please save my poor daughter-in-law and grandson! They did nothing wrong!"
Old man, I am about to die and there is nothing I can do to repay you. From now on, I can only set up a longevity tablet for you, burn incense and pray every day, and bless you to live a long life!"
Gu Cheng helped Old Man Li up: "You can live a long life, but you won't need it if you live a hundred years."
Turning around, Gu Cheng said to Zhao Jingming: "I'll leave this place to you first. Once you find any changes in the ghost realm, you will immediately evacuate with your people."
After finishing speaking, Gu Cheng went directly to Daoxuan Sect.
Daoxuanzong is not in Luo County, but outside Fengyuan County, which is close to Luo County. It is not too far from Luo County, only a few dozen miles away, and half a day is enough for a round trip.
A sect at the level of Daoxuanzong is actually not qualified to occupy that kind of geomantic treasure land, so the mountain gate of Daoxuanzong is just an ordinary barren mountain. It was transformed into something like a sect after it was transformed into a sect by Daoxuanzong.
Some looks.
However, the scenery was still ordinary, and Gu Cheng didn't come to see the scenery this time, so after arriving at Daoxuanzong, Gu Cheng didn't bother to talk nonsense to the disciple guarding the door, and directly showed Jingyesi's token.
In the Daoxuanzong's reception hall, the person who received Gu Cheng was Zhong Lin. He was the only one in the Daoxuanzong who had dealt with Gu Cheng.
Hearing that Gu Cheng was here, Zhong Lin was also a little confused.
The affairs of the Changle Gang have come to an end, and Gu Cheng is the night watchman of Luo County. Why does he come to Dao Xuanzong?
"Master Gu, why do you want to come to our Daoxuan Sect?"
Zhong Lin asked nonchalantly, his attitude was not exactly friendly.
After all, he lost to Gu Cheng in a fight last time, and his carefully crafted demon blood puppet was destroyed by Gu Cheng's sword, but it made him feel bad and spent a lot of money to repair it.
"Du Ziyang is a disciple of your Daoxuan Sect?"
Zhong Lin was stunned: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Gu Cheng didn't show off and directly told everything that happened in Lijia Village.
After listening, Zhong Lin's brows suddenly frowned.
"Master Gu, Du Ziyang is the direct disciple of our Dao Xuan Sect leader. Please wait a moment. I have to report this matter to the leader."
After saying that, Zhong Lin left directly, but Gu Cheng let out a long sigh.
He already had a hunch that the Daoxuanzong matter would not be easy to solve.
Because in Zhong Lin's eyes, he could not see the anger towards his disciples, nor the shock of being swallowed up by a ghost realm, nor the pity for the survivors who were in danger.
He only saw two words in Zhong Lin's eyes: trouble.
Obviously, in Daoxuanzong's view, he is their trouble.
