Early the next morning, as it was getting dark, Li Mu got up early.
The first soul and the second soul have begun to condense, and his alertness and consciousness are gradually returning. He is no longer as confused as he was two days ago.
After washing up, Li Mu went directly to the county government office.
Although Capt. Zhou allowed him to take paid leave, time is life to Li Mu. What he needs now is the opportunity to acquire the Seven Emotions and then condense the Seven Souls. Various events that occurred in Yangqiu County will be summarized in the county government office.
, it is more efficient to wait and see at the county government office than to wander around alone.
The matter of the seven souls should be dealt with sooner rather than later. People are born with seven souls. It is precisely because of the seven souls that protect the body that ordinary evil objects cannot approach. Without the seven souls, Li Mu is defenseless against those evil spirits.
If you walk a lot at night, who knows if you might encounter a ghost.
The sooner he gathers his seven souls, the sooner he will be out of danger.
After entering the county government office, Li Mu knocked on the door of a government office on the left. The middle-aged man who was working on the files at the desk raised his head. When he saw him, he said in surprise: "Li Mu, why are you here?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Captain Zhou, I'll report it."
Zhou Captou stood up and asked, "How is your health?"
Li Mu said: "It's much better now. I'm just idle. I'll come to the Yamen to see if there's anything I can do to help."
Zhou Captou looked at him in surprise and asked, "You really don't want to recuperate anymore. Even if you don't come to the county government office, the government office will still pay you your salary as normal for this month."
"I'm not going to rest anymore." Li Mu said sheepishly: "I don't get paid for my work, I stay at home all day, and I don't get the money I want..."
It's cool to have sex for free, but your life is more important.
A waste of time is a waste of life, which is a true reflection of Li Mu's current situation.
"You were not like this before. You were timid and afraid of getting into trouble. You would hide when something happened..." Zhou Captou looked at him with a strange look in his eyes and said, "If it weren't for the fact that the soul-testing instrument didn't respond, you also have memories of the past.
, I really doubt whether you were taken away by some monster..."
Li Mu was shocked. It seemed that his performance was still a little abnormal, but a smile appeared on his face and he said: "The last time something happened outside, isn't the Yamen safer than my home..."
Zhou Captou was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You are still the same Li Mu. If you want to go back to the county government office, just come back. There is nothing going on in the government office right now. You go back to your own room first. If there is any errand, Miss Qing will let you know."
."
The county government office is divided into the outer government office and the inner government office. The inner government office is the inner residence of the county magistrate and cannot be entered without permission. The outer government office is where various officials work, with more than ten small duty rooms.
Li Mu walked outside his check-in room, and before he entered, he heard a "crackling" sound coming from inside.
"Big, big, big, damn, why is it so small..." This was Zhang Shan's extremely decadent voice.
Li Mu walked in and saw Zhang Shan, Li Si and an old official gathered around the table. He glanced at Zhang Shan and said, "You cheated Lao Wang out of his money again. Aren't you afraid that the boss will find out?"
When Zhang Shan saw Li Mu, his expression relaxed and he said, "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, and if Lao Wang doesn't tell me, how will the boss know?"
Li Mu looked at the old official and said, "Old Wang, go back quickly. Our leader will be here soon, and none of you can escape..."
Lao Wang is a clerk in the county government. He has been in the county government for decades. He is mainly responsible for compiling household registration and sorting out some case files. Although he is old, his gambling heart is still young. He often comes here and
Zhang Shan and Li Si gambled, and nine out of ten times they lost money and went back cursing.
Lao Wang picked up a dozen copper coins on the table and said with a smile: "It's Li Mu. Are you feeling better? I heard from Zhang Shan that you were seduced by evil spirits..."
"It's better, it's better." Li Mu waved to him and said: "By the way, Lao Wang, just stay on duty and don't wander around. I'll have something to do with you later..."
Zhang Shan looked at Lao Wang and urged him to stay: "Hey, Lao Wang, don't leave, let's do two more..."
"I'll give it up when it's good." Li Mu glanced at him and said, "Old Wang is old and his legs and feet are inconvenient. It's not easy to make money. Don't always beat him."
"What do you mean we beat him..." Zhang Shan said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "I lost a total of fourteen coins just now. Lao Wang's luck is so good today..."
Li Mu stopped continuing the topic and asked instead: "Where is the boss?"
"The boss just went out." Zhang Shan glanced at him in surprise and asked, "What are you looking for, the boss?"
Li Qing was not here, so Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll do the same thing with Lao Wang."
Lao Wang is not only in charge of household registration in the county government, he will also handle the files and materials reported by people in Yangqiu County. Li Mu wants to find some simple, non-dangerous and not too difficult things to do in order to find people who collect Qiqing.
Chance.
When he turned to leave, he seemed to have remembered something. He looked at Zhang Shan who was playing with dice boredly and said, "How about I play two games with you?"
"You?" Zhang Shan was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Didn't you never play before?"
Li Mudao: "I suddenly wanted to play today..."
"Okay!" Zhang Shan was overjoyed and asked, "What are you playing for?"
Li Mu said: "Let's compare the size."
Not long after, Zhang Shan's laughter could be heard frequently during the check-in period.
"Haha, one, two, three, little one, I win!"
"Five, five, six, big, I won again!"
"Six sixty-six, haha, you lose two cents to me!"
…
In a short time, Li Mu lost more than ten pennies. The policemen in the yamen usually played with small amounts of one penny and a penny, and they could not lose much money. Others regarded it as a pastime.
I play it occasionally, but Zhang Shan never tires of it.
Zhang Shan was so happy after winning the money that his lips almost reached his ears. Li Mu handed him another copper coin and asked, "Do you still want to play?"
"No more playing, no more playing..." Zhang Shan put away the dice, leaned on the chair, and said feebly: "What's going on? I feel dizzy after playing with you too much, and my feet are a little soft. Next time, wait until next time.
Play……"
Li Mu nodded and said: "We agreed, we will continue tomorrow, I will go find Lao Wang first..."
A moment later, in another room on duty, Lao Wang raised his head, looked at Li Mu in surprise, and said, "The sun is really shining in the west today, Li Mu, you actually take the initiative to find a job?"
Li Mu said rudely: "Stop talking nonsense and help me see if there is any."
Among the county government officials, Lao Wang was the one who hung out with Li Mu the most. In order not to arouse his suspicion, Li Mu spoke to him in a very casual tone.
Lao Wang didn't notice anything unusual. While flipping through the files on the table, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll look for it..."
After flipping through a few pages, he pulled out a piece of paper and said: "Here is one. A strange thing happened in Zhangjia Village. The sheep in several villagers' homes were bitten to death by something unknown. There was not a drop of blood in their bodies. The county government also
No one has been sent to check, do you want to go?"
Li Mu said without hesitation: "Next..."
The livestock was sucked dry of all its blood and died. This was obviously done by demons and the like. Li Mu knew very well how much he weighed, and there was no point in risking his own life just for a little joy.
Lao Wang continued to search, and after a while, he pulled out another piece of paper and said: "There is another one here. Several fishermen near Bishui Bay reported to the county government that there are water ghosts causing trouble in Bishui Bay. Do you want to go and have a look...
"
"Next!"
"Seven days after Zhang Yuanwai's burial, the grave was dug up and the body was missing. Why don't you help search for it..."
…
"Stop, stop, stop..." Li Mu made a gesture to Lao Wang and asked: "Don't always be a monster, ghost, corpse. Don't you have any cases that normal people can investigate here?"
"This is quite normal." Lao Wang spread his hands and said: "There is a zombie apocalypse in Zhou County next door. People in the entire village have turned into corpses. The county guard is summoning practitioners from nearby counties to suppress it.
are you going?"
Li Mu waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, farewell..."
Facts have proved that in this mysterious world, without two brushes, he can't even be a good policeman. Li Mu also wants to do good things and eliminate harm for the people, but he has more than enough ambition and insufficient power...
Since there was no job he could do in the yamen, Li Mu had no choice but to start by sending the lost old lady home, accumulating joy bit by bit and slowly condensing his emotions.
Unfortunately, we don't meet lost old ladies every day. Li Mu didn't meet one even when it was dark outside.
Let alone people, he didn't even meet a ghost.
In the dark night, Li Mu was walking alone on the street. When he was about to reach the door of his house, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body.
Li Mu was stunned for a moment. It was summer now, and the night wind should be warm and gentle when blowing on people's bodies. However, the gust of wind just now made his whole body feel cold and his hair stood on end.
Suddenly, Li Mu felt a warning sign in his heart and turned his head suddenly, looking behind him.
The streets were empty, there was nothing.
Li Mu used the art of guidance and quickly transferred the trace of magic power that Li Qing left in his body to his eyes.
A pale face suddenly appeared in front of him!
This was a face without any color. It was very close to Li Mu, almost touching his face. A pair of white eyes were staring directly at him...
