Volume 3: Evil Ghosts Eat People Chapter 201: The Fierce Evil Ghost (Part 1)
An hour later, Xu Zun and his party returned to the Yonghui County Government Office.
However, they did not discuss the matter in the front hall, but went straight to the county governor's mansion in the back.
On the way, Timur Ani quietly followed Xu Zun's footsteps and whispered in Xu Zun's ear:
"I have tested those rebels and confirmed that they are not from Xuanmen. But you have to know that even though they are not from Xuanmen, it is hard to guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with Xuanmen. Perhaps they are just being used by Xuanmen."
Xu Zun has always been worried that this was done by the Xuanmen rebels, so he sent A Ni to test the waters.
"Okay, I know what to do!" After hearing Ani's report, Xu Zun nodded and said, "Ani, you did a good job this time. I will reward you by warming my bed tonight!"
“…”
Ani was speechless. She didn't expect that Xu Zun was still in the mood to make jokes at this time.
However, Ani was not a good person either, and she replied half-jokingly:
"Your poor mother hasn't come back yet. Are you worried about me warming the bed? Be careful that I won't succeed!"
The word "succeed" is intriguing. I don't know whether it means being able to kill Xu Zun, or what happened to Xu Zun...
"Hey, hey, hey..." At this time, Zhao Yu on the other side couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly said, "There are people here, please pay attention to the impact, okay?"
Annie didn't expect Zhao Yu's ears to be so pointy. She was a little embarrassed, but still had a playful smile on her face.
"We have some serious work to do later," Xu Zun warned, "You two should follow the plan and be careful."
"Yes!" the two answered in unison.
Soon, Xu Zun and others arrived at the door of the bedroom where County Magistrate Tao Lang lived.
Coincidentally, County Magistrate Tian Murong just came out.
"Hey?" Tian Murong was surprised and hurried forward to greet him, "Master Xu, why are you here?"
"Well, the case has been solved," Xu Zun said, "I'm here to say goodbye to Magistrate Tao."
"What? The case is solved?" Tian Murong was surprised. "I...how come I didn't know? And you want to leave, how come..."
It was not until this time that Tian Murong discovered that Xu Zun was accompanied by eight guards, as well as Zhao Yu and A Ni, all of whom looked aggressive.
"This..." Tian Murong then realized that something was wrong.
Xu Zun ignored him and went straight into Tao Lang's bedroom.
But Tao Lang 's two wives were serving him beside the couch, while Tao Lang was still lying on his back, looking unconscious.
"Master Xu..." Tian Murong said from behind, "I just visited Master Tao Lang, and his condition has not improved. I am discussing with the ladies whether we should go to Changqing City to invite a good doctor..."
"Prefect Tao," Xu Zun walked to the bedside without any hesitation, sat on the bedside, and said to Tao Lang, "Your illness will soon be cured. I have solved the case of the evil ghost killing people. The real murderer is Wanqi Feng of Zishan Sect!"
The two ladies were very surprised to see Xu Zun being so rude. They all shrank deep into the bed, not daring to get too close to Xu Zun.
"Master Tao, wake up!" Xu Zun looked at Tao Lang, whose face was disfigured. "I just went to the wine shop at Kuhe Wharf again. Guess what I was doing?"
While Xu Zun was talking to Tao Lang, Ani had already taken Hou Zhen and Ah Xiuzai to search outside the house, while Zhao Yu quietly walked back and forth in the bedroom, touching this and pressing that, as if looking for something...
"For a long time, there has been something I can't figure out," Xu Zun continued, "Why did the macaque bite Yan Sen to death in the warehouse and then drag him to the wine cellar before biting him to death?
"The wine cellar is sealed, and there is no other way out. If the macaque drags people in, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to escape?
"Later, after repeatedly investigating the scene, I seem to have figured out something," Xu Zun continued to tell his inference without stopping, regardless of whether Tao Lang could hear him or not. "The ghost dragged people into the wine cellar because it was dark inside, which made it easier for them to cheat and replace the original with the fake one!"
Having said this, Xu Zun paused. Although Tao Lang did not react, his two wives were already trembling like frightened birds.
"The so-called 猄鬼, should it be a domesticated wild beast?" Xu Zun said, "According to eyewitnesses, the 猄鬼 is bigger than a human, so... if you want to hide such a big beast, you probably need a big place, right?"
Seeing that Tao Lang still had no reaction, Xu Zun smiled slightly and continued:
"The witness also said that most was eaten by the beast. But if the beast was just a wild beast, how could it eat most of a person's head in such a short time?
"So," Xu Zun said, "I guess Yan Sen is not dead, right? The one who died was a scapegoat that you had found in advance. When Yan Sen was dragged into the wine cellar by the ghost, you switched Yan Sen with the corpse, right?
"By analogy, the fact that the demon attacked you and disfigured you shouldn't be true, right? That was just a way for you to divert attention from the outside world, right?
"Taiwan Magistrate Tao, tell me, is my guess right or wrong? Tell me, is it easy to prove my guess?"
While speaking, Xu Zun had already signaled to Dai Long beside him to check Tao Lang's face to see if his disfigurement was true.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the bookshelf on the right side of the bedroom suddenly cracked and a ball of fire came out from it!
ah!!?
Xu Zun and others were shocked, especially Zhao Yu. He had been concentrating on finding the secret room, but he didn't expect the secret room to appear ahead of time!
Moreover, there was fire coming out of it! ! ?
Swish…
As soon as the secret room was opened, the ball of fire rushed out of the secret room and rushed straight towards Xu Zun.
When Xu Zun saw it clearly again, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked.
But inside this ball of red flame, there was actually a monster with scales all over its body and horns on its head!
The monster let out a low roar and pounced towards Xu Zun fiercely.
"Sir, be careful!" Dai Long took the lead in standing in front of Xu Zun, but because the monster came too fast, he was immediately knocked to the ground by the monster.
Then, Dai Long's body was ignited with flames and burst fire...
"ah!?"
Zhao Yu was shocked and rushed forward to save people, but he didn't expect that a green monster would rush out of the secret room!
This green monster is covered with green scales and has ferocious fangs on its head. It looks extremely terrifying!
As soon as this monster appeared, it knocked Zhao Yu to the ground.
Roar…
The two monsters, one red and one green, roared and opened their bloody mouths, trying to bite Dai Long and Zhao Yu to death on the spot.
Wow...
This time, everyone was scared. The two monsters, one red and one green, were clearly the legendary xie ghost and yao ghost!
Could it be... could it be... that there really is a ghost?
Fortunately, Xu Zun and others were mentally prepared. Seeing this, the other guards immediately drew their swords and went forward to chop the two monsters.
But unexpectedly, the scales on the two monsters were very strong and could not be cut.
"Oh my... Help me..." At this moment, Zhao Yu was pressed down by the ghost. He felt his chest was torn apart and he screamed in pain.
Fortunately, he held the fangs of the demon with both hands, otherwise, he would have been bitten in the throat by the demon...
Dai Long was in even worse shape. After being attacked by the beast, flames appeared on his body, causing him unbearable pain. He struggled hard, but the beast bit him on the shoulder, and he was immediately covered in blood...
