My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

At this moment, Black Impermanence stepped forward, about to take Li Jiali away. Zhang Hao gazed thoughtfully at the sky. Suddenly, just as Black Impermanence was about to leave with Li Jiali, a blue-faced, fanged demon fell from mid-air as a peach wood dart whistled past, blocking Black Impermanence's path.

"I'm afraid this is the real mastermind. Don't wrong the innocent ghosts." Zhang Hao was still holding another peach wood dart in his hand. Without hesitation, he threw the dart again towards the spot where he had just been.

The peach wood dart whistled through the air, its surface crackling with flowing lightning. As it pierced the void, a piercing scream suddenly rang out, and a red-faced demon plummeted from mid-air, crashing heavily towards the direction of Black Impermanence!

Black Impermanence swiftly dodged to the side, and the evil spirit fell to the ground, a peach wood dart stuck in its chest, suppressing the flow of its vital energy.

The two demons, struck by the darts, emitted black smoke from their hearts, and a nauseating, pungent odor gradually filled the air.

The smell was like that of a rotting, pus-filled corpse—disgusting and foul.

"These two are the real murderers! Or rather, all the evil deeds committed by the demons in this school involving the removal of internal organs are inextricably linked to them."

Zhang Hao pointed at the two evil spirits lying motionless on the ground and said with a sneer.

Upon hearing this, the two evil spirits' faces instantly turned incredibly ferocious and terrifying. The blue-faced ghost raised his hand and shakily pulled out the peach wood dart from his heart. As soon as he pulled it out, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

“Although we have been wandering in this world for a long time, we have not done anything that is morally wrong. How could you... how could you wrong us like this?”

As he spoke, he got up from the ground, helping the red-faced ghost to his feet as well, and pulled the peach wood darts from his companion's body. As soon as the peach wood darts were pulled out, the heart wound that had been emitting thick black smoke suddenly healed.

The power contained in these peach wood darts was something even Black Impermanence feared. He never expected that these two ghosts could actually pull them out. Black Impermanence was secretly on guard; the strength of these two evil spirits was definitely not to be underestimated.

"You say I'm accusing you? That's ridiculous. Do you think you can keep up the act in front of me?"

Just as Zhang Hao was about to bring the two evil brothers to justice, they quickly dodged away, their movements swift and agile, clearly showing their experience.

"What are you pretending for? If you don't believe me, just check our life records. We really haven't done anything immoral!"

The two evil spirits spoke with great conviction, repeatedly crying out their grievances to the Black Impermanence.

Meanwhile, they were also dodging Zhang Hao's attacks. In the living room, lightning flashed and thunder roared, a cold wind howled, and a whirlwind whipped up a tornado, turning the entire living room into a mess.

Black Impermanence was completely bewildered. He asked Zhang Hao expressionlessly, "Don't make a move yet. Let's hear what they have to say."

These two evil spirits are indeed powerful. If I were to actually kill them, the commotion would be immense. Perhaps that day, the top headlines on Weibo would feature news like, "A lightning bolt as thick as an adult appears in a clear sky! Experts say it's the largest and most terrifying lightning strike in nearly a century."

Making such a commotion will definitely attract the attention of the underworld. Although the fault wasn't his, and there are extenuating circumstances, he'll still have to face an investigation from King Yama, which will be troublesome.

Zhang Hao stopped and said coldly, "Fine, then I'll see how you plan to argue."

The red-faced ghost stopped his frantic dodging and looked at Zhang Hao, a dark rage flashing in his eyes. He said angrily, "Lord Black Impermanence, you can check our life records. We have never done anything wrong! Even if you are a so-called righteous ghost-catching master, you can't deliberately frame us just because we are ghosts!"

"Don't worry, I'll check right away."

Black Impermanence took the booklet, reached out and grabbed a handful from the heads of the two brothers. Two wisps of black smoke were caught in Black Impermanence's palms and slapped onto the black booklet.

The booklet, having absorbed the black smoke, quickly turned its pages.

Not long after, the page turning stopped, stopping at the biographical record of the two brothers.

After reading the records, Black Impermanence nodded and handed the booklet to Zhang Hao: "Take a look for yourself. It's all recorded here. These two brothers are indeed innocent. They just don't want to be reincarnated, so they've been wandering in the human world. However, they've already received permission from the underworld, so they're not considered unlicensed or unauthorized wandering ghosts."

In other words, from the perspective of the underworld's procedures, the two brothers did not do anything wrong.

Zhang Hao looked at the booklet, sighed, and shook his head: "I never expected this thing to make a mistake!"

With a cold face, Black Impermanence said in a serious tone, "This booklet is absolutely correct!"

“Under normal circumstances, the records in this booklet would indeed be accurate, but the current situation is far from ordinary. Take a close look for yourself; the changes that have occurred in this person are far more complex than they appear on the surface.”

After Zhang Hao finished speaking, he pointed at the evil spirits and asked, "Did you see that clearly?"

He gently raised his hand and waved it, and a Soul-Stabilizing Nail shot out instantly, pinning the two evil spirits firmly to the spot.

The two nailed demons suddenly emitted billowing black smoke. The two demons, who had previously seemed to have a peaceful and stable aura, now exuded an incredibly sinister and oppressive presence.

"Now you see clearly, right?"

Zhang Hao gave Black Impermanence a meaningful look.

At this moment, the true aura that the green-faced ghost and the red-faced ghost had been hiding could no longer be concealed. The resentment and vengeance swirling around them were so thick that they were almost solidified.

Han San stared in disbelief, and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is terrifying! How many bad things did he do to accumulate so much resentment?"

"Ah, this..."

Black Impermanence was speechless in the face of the two ghosts. He carefully examined the information about the two men recorded in the booklet, and after repeatedly comparing it, he couldn't help but say, "What's going on here? The records above can't possibly be wrong."

Zhang Hao took the booklet and said to Black Impermanence, "This matter has already involved your underworld's internal administrative system, and I can't get involved. You should go back and ask your superior."

Zhang Hao originally intended to explain the reason directly, but then he thought that with his current status, if he interfered too much, who knows what those old guys in the underworld would think.

After much thought, I decided it was better to let them discover the problem themselves.

Black Impermanence remained expressionless, put away the booklet, and then spoke about the situation at the scene: "I wonder how you plan to handle this?"

The implication was clear: the authority to manage the situation on-site had been completely handed over to Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao looked at the two struggling demons and asked coldly, "Do you know your crimes?"

"What crime have you committed? We've been framed..." Zhang Hao was getting impatient. He had just exchanged a few blows with them, and they actually thought they were capable of fighting him?
A short flute appeared in Zhang Hao's hand without his knowledge, and he played a few notes. The sound seemed to carry some kind of mysterious power; the two ghosts who heard it immediately stared blankly at Zhang Hao.

“Tell me right here, in detail, all the evil deeds you have done!”

"Yes!"

The two evil spirits said in unison.

Thus, the ghosts and humans present heard how one horrific event after another was meticulously planned and staged.

The initial incident involving the filthy ghosts was actually orchestrated by them behind the scenes. However, on the surface, they deliberately dragged other ghosts into the mess, which is why the investigations initially uncovered other ghosts.

If they hadn't become complacent due to their repeated successes and underestimated Zhang Hao, they would never have been exposed.

They described in great detail all the methods used to frame others and conceal evidence.

The more Hei Wuchang listened, the angrier he became; his usually expressionless face was almost crumbling.

However, the two ghosts continued talking.

“At first we didn’t want to do this, but then we found out that with this treasure, we could do whatever bad things we wanted and shift the blame onto others. As long as we got other ghosts involved when we did it, we could pin all the blame on them. We were ecstatic when we stole this thing back then.”

The blue-faced demon seemed to be in high spirits, and his previously controlled mind regained some of its control, even revealing an excited smile.

Upon hearing this, Hei Wuchang immediately understood that what they were talking about must be something that could cover up their sins and cause errors in the underworld's recording system. This was the root cause of their ability to hide their crimes.

"What on earth are those things?" Black Impermanence asked angrily. If it weren't for the cold umbrella holding him back, he probably would have rushed up and given those two ghosts a good beating.

"That's it!"

Suddenly, Black Impermanence's eyes lit up as he saw the Green-Faced Demon spit out a treasure resembling a writing brush from its mouth.

A familiar aura lingered on the treasure, and upon sensing it, Hei Wuchang couldn't help but kneel down!

Even Li Jiali, standing beside her, knelt on the ground, trembling all over, not daring to lift her head. Han San also couldn't help but kneel down as well.

Zhang Hao was the only one who remained standing steadily when the treasure was revealed.

The calligraphy brush slowly rose into the air, and everyone slowly opened their eyes, finally able to see what the brush looked like.

This calligraphy brush looks very ordinary, just like the calligraphy brushes that ordinary people use. However, the smoothness of its surface shows that this brush has been used frequently and has even developed a patina.

Black Impermanence is very familiar with this pen.

It turns out that this pen is the very same judge's pen used by Judge Lu, the judge of hell!
He had never heard of the Hell Judge's Pen being stolen. How could such a treasure fall into the hands of these two evil spirits? Black Impermanence was filled with doubt and could not figure it out.

"The error in your booklet is probably caused by this pen. Go back and report it to your superiors yourself. As for how to handle it afterward, that's none of my business. After all, I'm not one of your underworld officials." Zhang Hao flicked his finger lightly, and the judge's pen that had been radiating light instantly lost all its luster, becoming like an ordinary pen, and slowly landed in front of Black Impermanence.

Black Impermanence reached out and caught the pen, but the moment he touched it, his brows furrowed deeply. Something's not right! The Judge's Pen shouldn't look like this!

He examined it more closely and found that the pen indeed lacked the unique spiritual aura that surrounded the judge!

This is a counterfeit judge's pen! Although it's a fake, it's so convincing that the underworld's recording system even recognizes the alterations made to it!

This is truly terrifying.

Black Impermanence dared not delay for a moment and immediately summoned the Ghost-Locking Chains to bind the two evil spirits tightly.

Before leaving, Black Impermanence solemnly thanked Zhang Hao: "Thanks to your help this time, otherwise I would have made a terrible mistake. You have made the greatest contribution in this incident, and I will definitely report to King Yama truthfully."

Zhang Hao didn't care about this and waved his hand, saying, "Go on ahead. Also, I've solved the case. The murderers are these two ghosts. However, you can communicate with the law enforcement department yourself about how the human administrative system should handle this case. Anyway, I've solved the case."

Zhang Hao said nonchalantly.

Black Impermanence also felt a headache coming on, but compared to the matter of the Judge's Pen, this was nothing. He immediately solemnly assured him: "I will arrange for White Impermanence to handle this matter. Don't worry, whether in the mortal world or the underworld, your contribution will be the greatest."

"I don't care about credit or anything like that, as long as things are handled well, that's enough. I hate trouble the most."

"Alright, I'll make sure you're satisfied with the follow-up." After repeatedly assuring them, Black Impermanence led the two evil spirits away, embarking on their journey to the Yellow Springs.

In a certain hall of hell, Yama was looking at the fake judge's pen presented by Black Impermanence.

This pen can alter the contents of any official document, even the records in the Book of Life and Death, and can erase all records of merits and sins with a single stroke.

King Yama exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "The development of piracy in the human world is too fast, even the underworld can't keep up."

At this moment, Judge Lu had received the news and rushed over. Upon seeing the pen in the King of Hell's hand, he immediately frowned: "This rubbish is a counterfeit of my pen?"

King Yama handed him the judge's pen, and Judge Lu took it and examined it carefully, his expression growing increasingly solemn.

Yama had anticipated this outcome, as the item was far too realistic, even its functions were identical. To call it indistinguishable from the real thing would be an understatement; it could completely replace the genuine article.

Judge Lu said angrily, "Is it possible to find out who made this?"

Once the truth is uncovered, he will personally rush over, tear the culprit to pieces, and send him to the deepest hell, where he will suffer for at least several thousand years! Otherwise, he would be doing a disservice to the other party's audacious act!

"If we could find out, we wouldn't have summoned you here," Yama said, looking at him. "Think carefully, all these days, who and which ghosts have touched your pen?" (End of Chapter)
