Chapter 228 Demon Stone
According to the content in Xicheng's father's notes, he first discovered this secret because the director of a local steel rolling factory.
In that era, the factory managers of various factories were well-known figures, especially popular companies such as steel rolling mills.
At that time, the factory manager had nightmares for several days. The content of the nightmares was surprisingly consistent. They all dreamed that a cat came to suck his yang energy at night. Coincidentally, the factory manager's body was also very poor in those days.
This makes people think a lot, after all, in that era, they were still very awe of ghosts and gods.
The factory director and the director of the Cultural Bureau at that time were educated youths who went to the countryside together, and they talked about this during a party.
The director immediately patted his chest and promised that he could help the factory manager solve the problem. Of course, after the problem was solved, the director immediately asked the factory manager to help him arrange a relative in the countryside to work in the factory.
These later words were not stated. The director at that time asked Xicheng's father Ge Wannian in private because the factory manager dreamed of a cat, and everyone knew that it belonged to the category of demons at that time.
Although Ge Wannian was an honest man, he knew that the things he had assigned to him should be done well, not to mention that this matter may not be related to monsters, and it may be just a nightmare, so he agreed to help him take a look.
As a result, when I went there, I found that the factory manager was entangled with demonic aura, which was actually related to monsters.
In that era, things about ghosts and gods were common, and people were not surprised by these things. When Ge Wannian said that it was really a monster, the factory manager's family immediately asked Ge Wannian for help, and he stuffed a lot of money.
Ge Wannian was entrusted by the leader, so naturally he could not accept it. After some refusal, he lies in the factory director's bedroom that night.
In the middle of the night, a gust of cold wind blew inexplicably in the room where the windows were closed. The monster invisibly entered the factory director's room and came to the bed. Just as he was about to take action, Ge Wannian jumped out of the closet.
After a fierce battle, Ge Wannian caught the cat demon. After the cat appeared, it was pure white and looked charming and beautiful.
After being caught by Ge Wannian, he actually spoke, but only Ge Wannian could hear this sound.
The cat demon ridiculed Ge Wannian for not being able to do well enough, and he didn't even see the weirdness of the factory manager.
Ge Wannian initially thought that the monster was bewitching people's hearts and delaying time. As a result, after using the Dragon Search Pan to test, he found that the factory manager actually had a completely different demonic aura from the cat demon.
In order to help the factory manager completely eliminate evil spirits, Ge Wannian found that the pendant on the factory manager was a bit strange. It was a white stone. The stone was inlaid in a silver frame. The silver frame was larger than the stone. If you fiddle with your hands, the stone could rotate inside the silver frame. It was a bit like the current decorations such as the transport beads.
When Ge Wannian asked about the source of the pendant, the factory manager began to hesitate and refused to reveal the truth. When Ge Wannian said that it was this thing that attracted the demon cat, the factory manager had no choice but to tell the truth.
This stone was obtained by him at a very famous ancient temple in the local area. It is said that as long as he put it on, he can prolong his life and cure diseases and strengthen his body.
After the factory manager got the stone, his health was getting better and better day by day. All the original three highs returned to normal, so he believed that he would wear them all day long.
Ge Wannian followed this clue to investigate and found that there was more than one stone of that kind, and many well-known figures had asked for stones from the temple.
Moreover, the monks in the temple, from the abbots to the sweeping monks, participated. They took advantage of people's fear of gods and Buddhas to make the stone buyers keep their mouths as if they were bottled. This semi-public secret was kept in the city.
"What happened later?" Wu Rui was so focused that he found that Xicheng had stopped first, and couldn't help asking.
"Later..." Xicheng paused for a moment and sighed sadly: "My father is gone."
"Oh~, so your father's death is likely to be related to this case, and we have now investigated this case." Wu Rui seemed to have smelled the scent of conspiracy at this time.
Zhang Ze was more concerned about another question, "Did your father write in his notes? How was the cat demon going on later?"
"Cat Demon?" Xicheng was a little confused about Zhang Ze's concerns, but then he felt relieved. After all, Zhang Ze was also a cat demon, so it was understandable to care about his kind.
He shook his head: "My father didn't write it specifically, but he probably was killed."
Zhang Ze was not so sure in his heart, because he remembered that the cat demon once told him that Xicheng's father was very powerful. The cat demon used the method of escape from the shell to escape.
If that white cat was the shell that the cat demon took off back then, then his body is now likely to be the body that the cat demon later took over again.
Of course, this question has no practical significance. Zhang Ze just asked curiously and let go and didn't think about it. Their main question now is: who are the men in black and how powerful are they?
If it is really as Xicheng said, the power of the men in black has existed since the 1980s and 1990s. After so many years of development and growth, how strong this company is now is incalculable.
And this also further shows that they alone are not enough to wipe out the forces behind this company.
"So, I want to ask you two to help me investigate this matter together. I want to find out what the cause of my father's death was back then." Xicheng said in a concluding manner.
Of course Zhang Ze was willing to do this. For him, the monsters in that company were all walking experience points. If he could catch the mastermind and earn a wave of demon power, he would be very happy.
As a policeman, Wu Rui was obliged to investigate the fact that monsters hurt their lives. The two hit it off and immediately listed this matter as an important action.
"However, I hope that the three of us will investigate this matter in secret and never let my two uncles know about it." Xicheng finally gave a worried reminder.
"Do you doubt them?" In fact, it can be seen from the time when Xicheng just talked about the man in black that Xicheng had some reservations about these two uncles.
"It's not doubtful either, but I think they are a little weird. They are hiding this matter and seem to be afraid that I will know."
Since Xicheng suspected, there must be his reason. He nodded in agreement at the moment, but this matter had to be discussed for a long time, so after talking about it, the matter came from Xicheng's father and then talked about the monster hunt that was about to be launched tomorrow.
Xicheng and Zhang Ze have cooperated several times and are still very tacit.
As an ordinary person, Wu Rui cannot directly participate in monster hunting because he is worried that he will take care of his life safety like last time. Therefore, Wu Rui's mission this time is to use his identity to ensure that there are no other idle people on the scene.
Xicheng and Zhang Ze discussed the magic weapons and tactics they would use tomorrow, and it was basically dark.
