Chapter 3: Ghost Village

ah!

A shrill scream suddenly broke the tranquility of the small mountain village.

Before Wang Cheng could come back to his senses from this scream, he saw Captain Du, who was squatting on the ground and checking the cause of death of a villager's corpse, suddenly stood up and rushed out like a sensitive leopard. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in the direction where the scream came.

"Let's go, let's follow Dut."

Wang Cheng suddenly woke up, hurriedly grabbed Liu Fei, who was furry beside him, and chased him towards Captain Du's direction.

After a while, Wang Cheng and the others rushed to Captain Du and also saw the body of the man who screamed.

I saw two county corpses wearing linen and gray clothes on the ground in a small farmyard, and they fell to the ground without any noise.

There were no bleeding wounds on their bodies, but their arms were exposed, their eyes were congested and raised, their faces were twisted and ferocious, and they seemed to have been greatly frightened and were scared to death during their lifetime.

"It's not just scared to death. People who are scared to death will have all their hearts and gallbladders and bile will overflow from the corners of their mouths."

Because of his courage, Liu Fei had learned some autopsy techniques from the coroner of the county government. At this time, he looked at the corpses on the ground and quietly whispered his judgment in Wang Cheng's ear.

"It's not really scary. They were possessed by ghosts and their souls were suddenly killed. We are in big trouble!"

Captain Du slowly stood up from the ground and spoke out his autopsy results with a serious expression.

What!

Hearing Captain Du’s words, the other Qingyi constables who rushed over like Wang Cheng and the others were shocked, and everyone’s faces showed fear and fear, and they couldn’t help but take a few steps back.

"Du, Du Boer, are you sure it's a ghost?"

After a middle-aged young detective had a thrust, he asked in a trembling voice, obviously unable to accept this fact.

"Du has been practicing martial arts for many years and has killed several little ghosts with his own hands. He has seen no less than a hundred people who have been harmed by ghosts, so he is very sure of this."

Detective Du answered the middle-aged detective’s questions with a gloomy face, and then walked out of the yard with great strides.

Outside the yard, because of the creepy scream just now, all the constables and yamen runners who entered the village arrived here.

However, when Wang Cheng walked out of the yard with Captain Du, he realized something was wrong at first glance.

"There is something wrong, and the number of yamen runners is seven less!"

He whispered in a low voice with a look of surprise.

"We have more than 70 people here. Brother Cheng, why do you see that there are seven missing at first sight? Could it be that you were scared by the words of Du Boer, and you counted the wrong people!"

Liu Fei said unbelievablely, and counted people.

As he counted like this, his face instantly became ugly.

"Indeed, there are indeed seven people missing!"

He said with a little nervous tone, then looked back at the courtyard behind him.

There are only two yamen runners' bodies in the courtyard, what about the remaining five people?

Captain Du also heard the conversation between the two, but he did not ask about the five missing people. He just raised his hand with a gloomy face and looked at everyone and said loudly: "Listen, this Captain already knows the cause of death of the villagers in Xiaochen Village. Now everyone is not allowed to act rashly without permission. He must always be in the sight of this Captain. If anyone is disobedient and acts without permission, he will be at your own risk!"

Only the constables who entered the yard heard the incident of ghosts that were causing trouble. Most of the gray-coated yamen runners were unaware of it. When they heard the yamen runners' words, they were a little panicked and seemed to realize the danger of the matter.

After finishing his words, Captain Du called all the Qingyi Constables present to the side and whispered his own way of dealing with them.

"According to the court's laws, after the incident of ghosts causing harm to others, it must be reported to the Demon Suppressing Division in various places, and the Demon Suppressing Division will send people to deal with it."

"Now our top priority is to leave this Xiaochen Village and then block the nearby areas to prevent villagers from entering indiscriminately."

"But I guess those ghosts will not let me leave easily. Everyone should be careful when leaving the village. No matter what you see or hear, don't worry about it, don't yell, don't leave me."

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, he reached out and took out a small blue porcelain bottle from his arms and gently uncovered the cork that sealed the mouth of the bottle.

"This bottle contains tears of cows. You can see ghosts within a quarter of an hour."

Speaking of this, Captain Du gritted his teeth again, looked at the detectives and said, "You all pulled out the knife. This Captain will bleeding once this time, and all the knifes will be covered with the blood of the captain. In this way, if your knife hits those ghost-level ghosts, it can also cause some damage to them, so that they dare not attack you easily!"

Du is a powerful warrior whose qi and blood boil three times, and his blood also contains rich qi and blood power.

For detectives such as Wang Cheng who are only pursuing martial arts and have not yet entered the Qi and Blood Realm, only by smearing the knife with this blood containing the power of Qi and Blood can the ghost be truly hurt.

No one hesitated, and the twenty-five constables quickly took turns to wipe the cow's tears.

Then he handed the long sword to Captain Du, watching him cut his fingers and smear blood on each knife.

Tick, tick.

The sound of blood dripping from the knife made Wang Cheng uncomfortable.

He pursed his lips and followed Liu Fei closely behind Du, who was riding on his horse again, and everyone rushed out of Xiaochen Village.

I don’t know if it was because of the reason why my eyes wiped the tears, but Wang Cheng looked at the fog in front of him, which made people feel depressed in his heart and wanted to shout and vent.

But he still remembered Captain Du’s previous explanation, and he bit his mouth tightly and did not dare to scream.

However, as soon as they rushed out less than fifty feet, a scream suddenly sounded from behind the team, and several sounds rang out one after another.

"Don't look back, everyone rushed forward and rushed out of the village!"

Wang Chenggang couldn't help but want to look back and see what was happening behind him, and he heard the angry shout of Captain Du in front of him.

He quickly pulled Liu Fei, who was about to look back, shook his head at him, and continued to sprint forward.

But at this moment, the horse that Captain Du, who was sitting down, suddenly screamed in frightened, and foamed at the mouth and fell directly to the ground, almost suppressing him.

At the same time, Wang Cheng, who was rushing forward, suddenly saw three gray-black human figures appearing in front of him, and directly passed over Captain Du and floated towards him and others.

The human figures floated extremely fast, and Wang Cheng didn't have time to see what they looked like. A human figure had already appeared half a foot away from him.

Without thinking about it, he waved his right knife with a conditioned reflex and slashed at the human figure.

Wow!

A shrill cry suddenly sounded in front of Wang Cheng. The figure that was hit by him seemed to be burned by fire. The figure twisted and quickly retreated more than ten feet.

In Wang Cheng's own perception, his long sword seemed to have hit a ball of ice water, and a cold and cold air was transmitted from the knife to his body, almost causing him to shake off the long sword in his hand coldly.

"Is that a ghost? Brother Cheng, you obviously hit it just now, why didn't you cut it to death?"

Liu Fei, who was following Wang Cheng, also saw the scene just now. He looked at the human figure in front of him with curiosity, and said something that made Wang Cheng speechless with regret.

"What nonsense is your boy talking about? If a ghost can be killed with one knife, will Du Boer still be so swayed to the enemy?"

Wang Cheng cursed with trembling lips, but his eyes were fixed on the figure of the human figure who had been cut by him.

Like Liu Fei, he was not born with a strong sense of fear of ghosts like other constables. He would be frightened and screamed when he saw them.

At this time, because the ghosts appeared directly to attack, the constables and yamen runners behind them were in chaos. Many people forgot Captain Du’s previous advice and ran around shouting.

Wang Cheng knew how much he had, and would not care about the others. He only knew that if he and Liu Fei wanted to rush out of Xiaochen Village, he had to deal with the ghost blocking the road in front of him.

"Be careful, although our knife can cut this ghost, the yin energy on its body will also erode our bodies. No matter what, you must hold the long sword in your hand tightly. This is the only way for us to kill this ghost and escape from the village!"

While telling Liu Fei about his previous fight with the ghost, he winked with Liu Fei, and the two of them attacked outside the village side by side.

Wow!

The shrill howl of ghosts sounded again from Wang Cheng and his two ears. When the ghost he had cut off saw them rushing outside the village, it turned into a phantom and rushed towards them.

Perhaps it was because of the loss before, and the target of the ghost's attack this time chose Liu Fei, and he was rushing from the front of the two of them from above.

But Liu Fei is usually frivolous and erratic, but in fact, his experience in facing the enemy is much richer than that of Wang Cheng.

The main reason is that he usually avoids the rotten vegetables and rotten eggs thrown out by the woman he teased, and has developed excellent stress response ability.

At this time, before Wang Cheng could even speak out for a reminder, he suddenly jumped up and turned around and slashed behind him.

As the ghost cries and howls of "Wow" sounded, the ghost that was slashed by Liu Fei with one knife seemed to be much more severe this time, and the already illusory figure became much more illusory.

But this time it seemed to be aroused by fierce aura. After being injured, it did not escape like before, but continued to pounce on Liu Fei who fell to the ground after falling to the ground.

"Go to die!"

Wang Cheng roared and appeared beside Liu Fei, and slashed the pounced ghost again with one knife.

This time he didn't seem to have cut a ball of water, but it seemed to have cut a layer of cotton cloth.

Although there was also a cold and cold air pouring into his body along the long sword, he could intuitively sense that he should have killed this ghost.

As soon as this thought appeared in his heart, his first reaction was not to see if the ghost had dissipated, but to concentrate on summoning the merit book.

Then his face, which was flushed by the cold and cold air, suddenly showed a joyful smile from the bottom of his heart.
